Strike or industrial action is a fundamental part of employee and employer relationships all over the world. To do otherwise is called suppression and coercion. A good leader negotiates while a bad leader instills fear through threats and in some cases, witchhunts union leaders.

Why do you think there is government and rule of law on Earth today?

If you are evil and commit evil or crime against somebody Good

You will go for it
Either Life imprisonment or capital punishment of hanging etc

The only option left for the Evil Zionists are AIRSTRIKES

Why are they no longer talking about the ground invasion of Gaza?

What a lot of people don't know is that most Western military establishments are now WOKE. Most Western powers we fear and revered can't compete militarily today after allowing 'wokeness' and lgtv to enter their arm forces. A good example is how America abandoned the war in Afghanistan and ran way. Had it been French troops in Niger attempted to fight during the coup, you all would've seen how the bodies of French soldiers will drag on the streets of Niamey. They are weak and can't compete effectively in ground battle. What the only have now is technology. Israel today is technically an European country nothing Hebrew about them and they're following on the footsteps of their Western brothers.

Any Israeli ground engagement on Hamas/Hesbollah dominated area will be catastrophic for them. The only edge they have now is air power which can't achieve much. Ground battle is necessary in gaining control.

I'm not a Muslim but I hate the hypocrisy of the West and injustices meted to the Palestinian people. The white Zionists from Europe who are in Israel today are not even the original ancient Israelites. Why are we allowing them to grab lands that is not theirs?
Were you aware that Russia fought Afghanistan for years in the 1980s but couldn't defeat them?

War is Air, Land and Sea
Why Israel hasn't gone in on ground was that America and the West are begging them not to go

Because the catastrophe on ordinary people will be terrible

But all the Hamas leaders are now top Target

Without Bride Price or Court Wedding, there was never a marriage in the first place. So the man can't legally lay claims to any kids.

The kids will only decide their allegiance when they come of age.

This is how people waste their years in life.
You don't want to marry but you want to have children.
I said it in the first story on this case that what gives the court right was if there former union was legalized under the marriage act

But lo and behold there union had no legal backing
And the Man didn't pay bride price to secure it traditionally

In the end he has no case anywhere

When people do things
Follow the custom

If he had paid the bride price
Nobody can deny him his children anywhere

He was seeing some money but wasn't taking care of the two kids 15 and 13 years

She is a nurse in the UK

That is life (and men) for you.
When you saw that he was exhibiting these behaviours, first action would have been to halt childbearing (so that your load will be lighter). As it is now, don't make that mistake of a 4th child (because I know such a man will be running around with erect missile, because there is no other work to do than to be offloading surplus akamu).

Then again, stop covering up for him. Stop it at once. Again, do not cover up for him. Do what you can for yourself and children, but he is not your responsibility. Let him keep looking for multinational.

I was like you (good girl and a virgin). But I discovered people like us become preys in the hands of the ones who know how to choose their naiive victims. I was in the midst of money but I was deprived. Looking older, with tears as food and insulted and oppressed by inlaws.

My life turned around when I detached emotionally. I started taking decisions that would favour my life, rather than constraining my life to a guy who doesnt love, or cherish or protect me.

It would do you good to be logical and selfish with that gender that betrays. How many of these men truly love and respect us? They only want women for the social relevance that comes with being married, free labour like clean house, cooked food, washed cloths and free nurse for their parents, free sex and free womb to perpetuate their lineages. The day you women tell yourselves the truth is the day you are set free.

These nigs don't give a fvc and why should you? undecided cool
Wow I am a guy but I like your reply

Good women most times fall for losers type of Men

But it requires being sensible and smart

Irrespective of whatever you have gone through
There are still many good Men out there
Just that one have to intelligently vet everything

Nice one

Reminderz:
he might have been facing a lot of pressure of getting cash, you know how the economy is now... he might be frustrated, this is why he resorted to gambling, but unfortunately, it's like going from frying pan to fire... gambling will crush him totally, he should take up available work for now while aiming bigger, not just sitting idle doing nothing hoping for a bigger contract, he must get working... but trust, no man will ever feel happy not being able to provide for his family, you might never know what he's going through or planning secretly... life is not even easy for the singles let alone the married ones, so please cut him some slack... talk to him, and you guys can discuss how money can be made, and I hope he really listens.. but one quick question, was there any red flags you noticed when you were dating?

and secondly, life is not a bed of roses, you have to get off the fantasy of happily ever after, there's nothing like that... there will be challenges you'll face in life... you just have to fight through it... yes, you might love him, but love is not what hold marriages, it's commitment... even the couples you admire online, have their own worst stages which they will never talk about but since they keep feeding you guys with fantasies, y'll believe that's what marriage is all about... if you base your marriage only on love, it will fail..

thirdly, why re you comparing your situation with others? do you know the kind of environment and connections they have? do you know if they had help? do you know what they did to get to where they are? why are you putting unnecessary pressure unto yourself because you wanna impress? see ehn, there's so much pains and struggles people hide from the world, we only share the good part of it on media, this is why social media is a place of lies, where hypocrites relate with each other... face your own struggles, be your own competition...

you married as a virgin as you should, but life doesn't end there... someone can be good but still experience some bad things, that's life for you... there are some circumstances that will be beyond your control, and you just have to live through it, this is a phase everyone will pass through whether you're good or bad... the only thing is that, your experiences shouldn't make you stumble but makes you stronger...
I love all your Comments
I think you made the most sense

But let me talk more on the bolded

life is not a bed of roses, you have to get off the fantasy of happily ever after, there's nothing like that... there will be challenges you'll face



Many people make the mistake to think that life is a bed of roses

John Maxwell in one of his books said that "Life is hard!! That Who even told people that Life is meant to be easy"

Many people make that mistake


Life is hard, Life is difficult filled with numerous challenges

But our becoming a success requires our standing up and facing those challenges then we can begin to see success emerge


Op should change her mindset and find ways to mitigate her problems

If she can't cope with the husband she should move to her father's house and start from there
If the problems continue with her man and he doesn't want to change and become useful with his life she can then divorce and move on with her life

Arabs understand themselves

Egypt closed there border with Palestine not allowing any refuge to entre

While isreal allowed Palestinians to cross border and come to work in Israel

Saudi, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait all didn't allow the Palestinians

They know they are agent of chaos

Saudi has been fighting the Hutu rebels across there borders


The successful ones don't want Nations like Palestine etc to come to them
Because they carry too much chaos and trouble


Look at France that allowed the poor Arab Nations citizens, see the kind of chaos and trouble they are going through

Let's see whether he will win the battle for next governorship Election in Anambra

But it's going to be a very tough battle btw APGA LP and now APC

All with very strong personalities
APGA: incumbent governor Soludo
LP: Peter Obi factor
APC: Ifeanyi Uba/central government

It will be a huge battle ahead

FamilyRe: Igbo Custom On Bride Price Wicked, Evil Ungodly, Says Ondo Court by djon78(m): 5:09pm On Oct 11, 2023
omooba969:
Very good! grin

My argument is that the Igbo customs, culture, and tradition CANNOT be greater than the humans involved in this case. Therefore, the humans (as in this case) take precedence over the Igbo customs, culture, and tradition.

For example, the created cannot be greater than the creator.

The law court has demonstrated this. cool
What even gave the court right is because they married under court Law's

But if it's just someone that goes and impregnate a woman without doing culture norms and no court legal binding

That pikin don go
Nothing the guy can do

I have such a case in my extended family
A distant relative had a child when she was ninteen
She had a boy

The father took custody of that boy
Today that boy will write his waec next June
And get into university
He is very smart

The impregnator can't even near the child whatsoever
After the family have raised the boy up as there own

Another big man an oil executive from Delta Igbo
One of his daughters had a child as a teen
The Man later accepted that boy after forgiving his daughter

That boy went to the best of schools
Doing university in the US

Then one efulefu will come to claim the boy

Arrant nonsense


See in Igbo culture
We don't play with children
Even though my Dad married my mum properly

Still my mother's people still own part of me

My kid Sister's did traditional wedding some weekends ago

Even my mother's people had a share in the bride price and things the in laws brought from the marriage list


That's how deep Igbo custom is
We don't do things anyhow

And that's why we prefer marrying ourselves

Like amongst my family even extended
We married ourselves igbos

My parents had 5 girls 4 are married
2 are doctors
But they are all married to Igbo Men
One from IMO
Another one from Abia
The other two from our Anambra State

So that's why we rearly marry outside
We marry those that value our culture

And all my married sisters are treasures to there husband's

Neddyogu:
Same thing Igbos ppl suffer when they marry or interact outside their tribe. I had a relative that married an urhobo lady from Delta, unfortunately, this lady died and her people insisted that it was their custom to bury their daughter in her father's house wether married or not! God forbid! As Igbos, this was strange to us as only single ladies are buried in their father's homes. But custom is custom! So u see, everybody's a victim of the other fellow's customs and traditions. It's not an Igbo thing per se.
Exactly custom is custom

If one doesn't want to abide by the custom
He doesn't need to go for it

Every tribe has there custom

emmatuegbe:
No parent would take joy of a man eloping with their daughter in the name of forming a new family.
Traditions were established to bring orderliness in the society. Would you raise a daughter for 22 years or more, then one stranger would just hold her back to form a new family without the consent of her parent or family members. It is a mixed issue. No responsible man would embark on such steps or encourage such
You dey mind them

If you no pay bride price
The family doesn't even recognize you
Even for church marriages now
The priest will find out whether the customs were fulfilled before going on with the wedding

They can't even run away from the fact
We don't allow irresponsible men and miscreants to reap where they didn't sow
FamilyRe: Igbo Custom On Bride Price Wicked, Evil Ungodly, Says Ondo Court by djon78(m): 4:41pm On Oct 11, 2023
ForestHill:
Logically, could this be the reason Igbo women stays married more than 90% of all the tribes combined?
The main issue is that because of the premium attached to bride price

The Man in question behaves himself well because he didn't go to just pick a woman anyhow

He paid a price for the woman he is marrying therefore he behaves well

On the part of the woman
She is trained from young to respect her husband who paid her bride price
Be submissive and take care of there home


That's why Igbo women despite there high place and achievement in society respects there husband's very well
Majority of them though we have the exception
Example: Ngozi okonjo iweala, late Dora Akunyili, Oby Ezekwesili are all well submitted to there husband's

Late Dora Akunyili was said that even as a minister and nafdac DG Personally prepared the soup her husband eats not leaving it to cooks and steward's

They even help build there Men up

Give it to Igbo custom


Although wise women respect there husband
Not just Igbo culture

I have been in a forum live where Mrs alakija personally said that despite her wealth she is submitted to her husband.
Cooks his food etc

Na women wey never reach anywhere or achieved anything in Life that disrespect there husband's


That's why I am raising my daughter's to attain great height but must submit to there husband's and do the normal work a woman is meant to do like cooking good food for your home and running your home perfectly

That's our duty as fathers to raise responsible daughter's that will be good wife to there husband's

If two people decide to come together and knack, knowing the consequence is a child, is the child supposed to take the blame?

I have kids and I know they deserve the support and care not because I want them to honor or take care of me but because I ask them to come and I have to be accountable for their well-being whether they honor me or not.

I called them, did I give them an agreement to them to sign about how we are going to live the contract, telling them what is expected them before I can do my own part, so at least they decide if they want to come or not?
Whether you agree or not

The Holy books have stated that

Go and ask around
People that there parents cursed
How there Life has been

Whether they planned a childs coming or not
Children are obliged to there parents

parent take care of there children from a day old till they grow to fend for themselves

That area used to be known as Palestine under the control of the British until 1947

The population was about 1.5 million of which less than 20% were Jews

When World War two ended

The British and Americans decided to compensate Jews in Europe who were victims of Hitler's genocide by relocating them to Palestine,grabbing land and rendering many Palestinians as refugees thereby creating the state of Israel in 1947

The Palestinians have continued to resist that to this day

Imagine if the Nigerian state did that to Benue People and created a Fulani enclave there. Would you expect them to go away and be quiet?
The Land of isreal belong to the Jews for over 5000 years till the Romans destroyed Jerusalem in AD 70

It was after second world war that the Land was relocated back to the Jews

This battle for Jerusalem will never end
