Politics › Re: Presidential Election.so Sorry,south West Knows Nothing About Nigerian Politics by DMerciful(m): 10:22am On Mar 23, 2019
Truth is SWesterners should read history and know how, as good as Awolowo was he could not be president because the other South made sure that happens! Tinubu repeating same mistake! He or Osinbajo will never be president and in 2023, Kwakwanso will most likely be president, the SS/SE will make sure of this!

When Christ told his disciples that one of you will betray me, they started asking him in turn, Lord is it I? When it got to Judas Iscariot's turn his response was 'thou sayest'
So I tell you now, thou sayest grin

You are too young to have a serious relationship in the first place, you shouldn't be in a committed relationship for now. Travel and face your studies and I tell you out of sight is out of mind. Do not go with the court wedding or baby stuff, you will feel trapped and eventually resentful when the time comes. It's possible the girl you will eventually settle with is not among these two but I feel and think the 20yrs old will be good for you. How can a girl say she will wait 5yrs for you? I see so much desperation from her and why you're gone she may not be faithful.
Redwhiteandblue:
Hi everyone!

I'm a silent reader and I created this throwaway account for anonymity. I need your advice, I wouldn't want to make the wrong decision.

I'll try to keep this short, I understand most people don't fancy epistles. My wahala plenty, biko bear with me. So here's the gist.

I'm a young man, early twenties, who just graduated and waiting for service. I have a girlfriend who is 2 years older than me. We've known each other for four years -- started out as friends for the first two and started dating two years ago.

She's a good lady, the type every man would want.

I have plans to travel next year for my post-graduate studies (Canada or USA). I don't have intentions of coming back anytime soon, except for important family events, so the goal is relocation.

GF says she's willing to wait for 5 years max so I can figure my life out before marriage but she needs some form of "security", something to hold on to; either a court wedding or a baby. She's concerned about her biological clock and waiting in vain.

I, on the other hand, do not quite vibe with the idea. I think if we're waiting for each other, it should be because of love and not a "commitment" *I hope that was the right word*

She says she's very much okay with a Long-Distance Relationship as long as communication is strong -- she has done it about twice. For me, honestly, I am not sure I can do it. I told her its something I'm willing to try for us but I'm not assuring her I can do it. I think "out of sight is out of mind" she thinks "absence makes the heart grow fonder"

I don't want a situation where something goes south along the line, we'll then have a baby or a divorce to deal with. I'm not planning for it but I'm just being realistic.

Issues;

- My mom doesn't like their tribe. Doesn't matter, right? After all, its my life.
- Age factor. Not a problem for me.
- Distance that will come between us and time before I get ready. She says she can wait 5 years.
- Pressure from her end. She's Igbo and the first daughter. She says she can stand the pressure.

She wants to know if I'll be willing to put in the effort to make the LDR work. She could come visit occasionally.

She says if I'm sure its not going to work out, I should let her know to avoid wasting each others' time and a messy heartbreak in the future.

So my question is Do you guys think the "security" is a good idea? Would you advice me to go through with it?

Please ask any questions that would help in the decision process.

Side note:

There's a girl I've known for 2 years now. We're just friends!

- She's from my side of the country.
- I'm 2 years older than her. She's 20 and just graduated.
- There's a chance she will travel to the same destination for her post-graduate but I'm not sure.

We've been communicating a lot lately (during the few months my GF traveled. GF is back now.) and its very clear this girl likes me. GF is not comfortable with the closeness. I used to ignore her but GF felt that wasn't really nice and urged me to talk to her. I saw her point and started responding to her and boom! It transitioned into an everyday sort of thing.

Now she's concerned -- if she left for a few months and we got this close, what will happen when I travel?

Advice a brother, please. Thank you!

Appeal court will upture the judgement. Supreme Court has consistently support rerun election where the different between leading contestants is not up register of cancelled votes.

You mean Adaka Boro?
Anyways, Southern unity is the way forward either to push for restructuring or Oduduwa and Biafra republics. If the Igbos and Yorubas were cooperative, going back to the Southern Protectorate is best!

Omudia11:
Get your facts right before posting nonsense. Ask about Ken Saro Wiwa and retract your statement because he was a Nigerian delta separatist long before you ever dreamt of Biafra.

If South Korea had been stuck to North Korea they wouldn't have been developed. We need to leave the North if we must progress! Northern Nigeria should have been merged with Niger, I don't know what Lugard was thinking!

Politics › Re: Ambode: From Governor-General To Political Orphan - By Temidayo Akinsuyi by DMerciful(m):
Lagos has been having incompetent governors but lagosians don't know. The reason why every Lagos governor seem to be a performer is because Lagos has so much funds, in fact it's about the 6th largest economy, far richer than most African countries. Even the military governor Marwa was said to have performed. If Lagos cannot beat cities like Cairo, Cape Town and Johannesburg then it's not working. For goodness sake Lagos is a huge slum and mediocres has been ruling Lagos no wonder the overhyped Fasola is struggling at the national stage!
That Gbadamosi guy would have been great for Lagos but Jagaban will not allow him!
