Religion / Re: Warning! The Trumpet Is Fixing To Sound. JESUS Is Coming! by DonMavin: 1:20pm On Nov 13, 2022
Mercury12:

What part of the Bible told you that? undecided

Who wrote the bible? Was it God himself?
Is this same believe in the Koran or Hindu and other religions?

What makes your opinion superior to others when you base on only your believe and shallow understanding of the bible you stated.

KosiGee:
What has the allegations against Diri got to do with MEND?

How is MEND connected to this?

The governor in question is an on important part of MEND. Except you are just commenting without knowing what MEND is.

RZArecta:
nothing like MEND. If the governor is sure of himself, he should take the woman to court for defamation and libel. He doesn't even need to visit South Africa for that, we don't need this charade of a toothless bulldog organisation threatening people on behalf of politicians

Sometimes y'all need to reason mature over issues. You don't expect the governor of an oil rich state to be doing the things you just said for an issue that is clear he didn't do. Would you in your right senses believe a governor will actually do such a thing and release it online?
Any reasonable person will know it's the handwork of a scammer she fell for and why it is sad is because those media people couldn't even reason it properly or confirm the news well with evidence before coming out to defame a sitting governor.

Some people take the freedom of speech to a level that needs maximum punishment.

The state legislators, controlled by PDP billionaire indigenes of Anambra state impeached him for refusing to spend budgeted funds.

He sued them and won.

I have been hearing about this for a while but I'm not use to political issues. I saw a comment in a post today and I wanted to know what lead to the impeachment of Peter Obi as governor of Anambra.

Anyone with actual details should please share with me.

He should be given a chance to make a difference. We only hope and pray these old political big wings don't do the unthinkable. And we also pray he doesn't disappoint us if given a chance.

This is the opportunity Nigeria has to show the world that the people have a voice and not just politicians that feel the country and their party is their birth right.

Romance / Why Are Some Nigerian Ladies Not Patient And Content? by DonMavin: 8:17pm On Nov 10, 2022
This is a true story of my very close friend who got married at the age of 26 years. He is a graduate and a hustler, met this girl he loved so much and decided to marry her. He did court wedding, traditional and white wedding and they have three kids together as we speak.

Through the years of their marriage he was doing everything possible to make his wife comfortable. He saw her through university till she finished her nysc. He bought her a small car and they stay in a very nice rented two bedroom apartment. No matter the situation he ensures he provides for them and the kids are going to a nice school. Yet this girl doesn't appreciate all this guy's struggling. She expects so much from him without thinking of the fact that they are still young and can make it better by corperating well. He has tried to force her to get a job as she is a graduate as well but she refuses and insist she wants him to give her like 5 million above to start a school for herself. She knows this guy doesn't have such money in bulk cash but he is trying and she just kept frustrating him.

Recently he made up his mind to travel out for his masters degree and start a new life outside Nigeria then find a way to bring his family over. By the grace of God he was able to get admission in Canada and got his visa but didn't want to tell his wife because she would have messed everything up. Now he travelled, informed her and got has gotten a job. He tries to send her 20k every week for their upkeep because he is trying to settle properly but this girl has been rejecting the money and has been threatening to report to the Embassy that her husband abandoned her in Nigeria with the kids.

This is now a year, he has finished his masters, applied for his PHD and he is working so he decided to file for divorce and leave the wife because she has refused to be reasonable.

He said he is not ready to come back to Nigeria anytime soon because of the wife's attitude and she is an Edo girl from Epkoma side.

This guy loves this girl so much and really wanted his family to be happy but why are some ladies so heartless in Nigeria. In Canada there he can meet better ladies to marry again and start another life but he does not want to loose his family in Nigeria and this girl is pushing him to the wall.

Please what advice do you guys have to give on this issue.

Politics / Re: Bawa: Court Sets Aside Conviction Of EFCC Boss For Contempt by DonMavin: 7:36pm On Nov 10, 2022
Many people complaining here don't even know anything about law and that's why many fall victims for simple issues because they don't know their right.

When a matter goes to high court and a judgement is given, if you are not satisfied with the judgement you have a right to appeal the judgement within a particular time.

You don't have to comply immediately with what the high court orders when you have the right to appeal such judgement. If the appeal court doesn't favour you and you have money to proceed to supreme court then that's your right and nothing can be done till the final judgement of the supreme court.

So many of you should learn that it's not about government not following court judgement or about the position of the person. It's all about knowing your right and court proceedings to follow.

Politics / My Fear For The Peter Obi Presidency by DonMavin: 11:43pm On Nov 08, 2022
Out of all the presidential candidates of the coming election I will pick Peter Obi as the man for the job. But in all honesty if we look properly the question would be "can he handle it".

First of all he was in Apga, then later joined PDP and now Labor party. We usually call these kind of people political prostitutes or anywhere belle face politicians. That aside, if Peter Obi win who are the people going to form his cabinet if not same people from one party or the other. He has made lots of enemies from Apga and PDP over the years just to pursue his ambition which is normal, but the big question is "how can his cabinet function properly when the state executives, the legislative and most arms of government are going to be under other political parties.

Even if he win and all these arms of government decide to join the Labour party as the ruling party, would that not bring us back to where we are and even make things more difficult for us.

I am just thinking outside the box on the reality on ground in the position of Nigerian politics right now. What do you think can make Peter Obi lift Nigeria from this present situation without a current strong political structure across Nigeria aside we the fans that knows he is the man for the job.

chiefolododo:
Peter Obi is the man.The North cannot support a cameroonian.let us vote for a Nigerian to rule Nigeria. There may be separations if Atiku a cameroonian finally wins the election. Let him govern the North. Aside from the North Central, what does the core North bring to the table? They believe they can win any election because they have the population, you will eat your population, don't worry.

But an Indian man is ruling UK and it doesn't mean anything so anyone can rule Nigeria as long as they can take us forward and not backward.

If we should go by your analysis, Obi is a Biafran so there could be separation if he wins so he should rule biafra instead.
Tinubu is also from Oduduwa republic so if he wins there could also be separation so he should rule Oduduwa republic.

Meaning non of the major presidential candidates are Nigerians.

Romance / Happy Fathers. What Was Your Experience Having Your Very First Child by DonMavin: 4:22pm On Nov 02, 2022
Honestly the feeling of being a dad has so much humbled me but I must say it's a thing of joy. I remember back then when my mum would take me to visit someone who just gave birth and when my mind I would just be like "why are they doing happy happy, no be baby them just born like normal thing" lol.

Well as one got more matured and the atmosphere for marriage starting setting in, it was quite scary especially when you hear the way some people make it seem like marriage is just like bondage. However give or take man needs a helper, companion and mother of his home so I crossed my mind and boom, I became a married man.

Fast forward to how time flies, my wife got pregnant about a month after our wedding and my heart starting beating everyday whenever I think of the fact that I will start buying pampers and baby food. Before I knew it my wife told me she needed to be going for checkup in the hospital every three months or so, her level of eating increased and I was just observing like "na so e dey be abi na you just dey package this style for me".

We had projected that the baby would be due for delivery around the first week of February or there about so I was preparing myself very well for the moment but what I knew I will not try is to be inside delivery room with my wife because na me go shout and cry pass who dey push, that's if I no even faint for there. But on the 20th of January my wife couldn't sleep all night and was crying too much complaining of her head. I was just there and didn't know what to do so I just check for any pain killer medicine and gave her. In the morning of January 21 I just gave her some money to go to the hospital for final checkup and tell the doctor about her head pain. She went and I didn't hear from her till evening when her family people called me to come to the hospital that she was due for delivery that day. When I heard that I just rushed from my office to one bar, rushed some heavy shots of whiskey and headed to the hospital.

On getting there, I met her mum, dad, aunties and sisters there. For my mind I say na wa ooo, everybody just pack come hospital like say my wife wan born Jesus Christ again. Well after paying the bills and everything they told me she was going be there till probably the next day for observation so I should go home and get some things then come early in the morning.

That night I couldn't sleep so I was just sipping whiskey all through the night, thinking of different names for a male and female child because I didn't know which is gonna come. Early in the morning on the 22nd of January, I just took everything I rushed to the hospital. Immediately I entered the room, her mum just stood up with a baby in her hands and handed the baby to me. Lo and behold the baby was a beautiful bouncing baby girl, my first fruit. And I said to myself while tears dropped from my eyes "Indeed, this is my beloved daughter in whom I shall be well pleased"

That feeling is unimaginable so I know I'm not alone in this.

Less I forget, so much respect to all the mothers out there. I swear una dey try no be small. I know what I saw during the nine months alone to carry that baby inside you, then come push am out again. God bless you all so much.
