Oyedepo deserves this ill treatment. When he slapped the girl his followers defended him as if he was above the law. Now let his followers go and attack the UK govt na. In same environment Oyedepo would pay heavily for that silly act. Come to think of it do you think Oyedepo can slap a so called witch in America or UK? He dare not. His sorry ass would be cooling off in Jail.

Hi, first of all I wont insult your intelligence by starting this story with..."a friend of mine..."
this story is mine.

My bf and I were dating for 5 months until recently... (long distance...so we used to talk a lot on the phone)

this whole thing happened over a month ago...
At first I called, after I missed his call the previous day (had no credit to call back); when I called he sounded sleepy, said he wanted to sleep that he was gonna have a busy week so I bid him goodnight and hung up.

through out that week we didnt speak until Friday (of the same week), he calls accusing me of not caring etc
i asked why he would say such a thing, wasnt he the same person that told me he'd be busy? and besides, I called him before and he told me he wanted to sleep, he claimed I was using this as an excuse.

The next day I called him again and asked why he had to behave the way he did the previous day...his replies were all accusing about how I had to learn to be caring to be able to take care of a home, etc and I asked why he had to lay all the blame on me....to be honest I've really thought about this and I've concluded he just wanted to start up a fight, I asked him to please let me be if he just wanted to annoy me, he said "yes i want to annoy you" can u imagine? he even asked if i really meant it when i said he should leave me alone.

i told him if he wanted to do something he shouldn't use me as an excuse to do so (i was referring to him trying to use me to cause a break up)

so a few days later I sent him a happy independence day text....the dude didn't reply so I kept him quiet (last thing i am is desperate...lai lai! that one wont happen)

few days after that, his sister (she introduced us) calls me over for a visit which i honored, this dude tells his sister that i'm acting strange, i asked her how? being a sister, she asks me to call him again (i already told her of my previous efforts)...my people I told her lai lai that i wasnt going to try it again o! for what now? the one i called n he ignored nko?

the sis called him in my presence, (i told her not to inform him i was there)...the sis told me after the call that he said he will pray on the matter (this dude gave me a ring already telling me he wanted to marry me....i didnt give him an answer cos we still had other issues to iron out which I dont wanna share on this forum)

Now my people, after that information about him wanting to pray about "us" i told the sister that I had to go back home biko. (the insult was just too much!) Did he not know he was gonna pray about us before his "proposal"?

To be honest, I believe he's with someone else which is fine...but at least have the balls to say so to my face! (or at least come and collect your ring)

since then he and i havent spoken (so to me we are no more) but the sis calls...maybe cos she knows her bro did not do well so she doesnt want that to affect our relationship which is cool.

So there u have it....the perils of the immature males...

Sorry for the long gist...its my way of venting off my annoyance

So please sound off below...with your thoughts, advice and every other thing in between!

SkySpirit:
Am just wondering what the polity would look like if Buhari defects to the PDP or Jonathan defects to the APC before the elections? Would people touting for Buhari still vote him? Would those routing for Jona still vote him? Which of them would be referred to as a progressive or transformation champ?

redsun:
At least she'got shame, unlike tinubu,OBJ or atiku that are noise making thieves. They even condemn other thieves shamelessly and remorselessly in public.

omololu2020:
if I had known u are a daft fool,I won't hav quoted u.

omololu2020:
ogun and ondo are not landlocked little boy

Mogidi:
GEJ CARRY GO 2015

automaticcars:
He should also pray Y1bos stay in their cursed, landlocked, erosion ravaged land too since they believe Y1boland is the Dubai and Tokyo of Africa.

Elose11:
When Tambuwal adjourned the house sitting to Dec 3, and defected, the APC members applauded the decision and are still celebrating it. But when mark adjourned the senate to Nov 11 because the PDP senators were aggrieved over the ward congress, the APC senators, represented by senator Ojodu, were livid with anger. They now remember all that the nation will lose in term of budget passage, etc. Why are these people always talking from both side of their mouth. When it suits them, it is victory for democracy. If it doesn't, it is rigging and impunity. Nigerians beware of this doubled faced Janus! APC are bunch of 419ners.

TheIROKO:
please ma a governor that gave free education up to higher institutions (confirmed this personally from IMSU students) with countless no of capital projects with so many life changing programs, infact his achievements as a governor is incomparable to any other state government I have witnessed (am from Ebonyi, currently schooling in Anambra, grew up in Abia and spending my holidays in IMO state) I have been to all SE states except Enugu but if Nigerians choose to glorify mediocrity and nepotism ahead of excellence then it is very unfortunate.

freezone4real:
According to Professor Wole Soyinka, "Only four sets of people can vote for the PDP:

(1) Those who are intellectually blind,

(2) those who are blinded by ethnicity,

(3) those who are blinded by corruption and therefore afraid of the unknown, should power change hands, &

(4) those who are suffering from a combination of the above terminal sicknesses"

Stanley Azuakola: The Nigerian Army I saw today

I have tried to give the Nigerian Army the benefit of the doubt.

When satellite images released by Human Rights Watch showed the destruction in Bama last year after soldiers razed over 2000 homes, I still gave the benefit of the doubt. “What if we are wrong? Let’s support our military!” I told people.

I was touched but did not care much about the 32-year old fisherman interviewed by Human Rights Watch who said, “We had heard the soldiers say before the attack that since you people are not cooperating with us and are hiding your brothers, we will treat you as one of them. Everyone heard them say this. They were saying it in the open.”

That man lost his uncle who had a bad leg and could not escape when soldiers attacked and burnt the houses after a Boko Haram attack. But I still tried to make excuses.

Even when my Twitter friend, Salihu TankoYakasai (@dawisu) shared stories in April last year, claiming that soldiers in Kano have turned into “an even deadlier enemy than Boko Haram… and had become human exterminators,” I silently accused him of exaggerating. Somewhere in my mind, Bama and Maiduguri and Kano… were all too far for me.

In the last few months, I have become more critical of the army. After their ridiculous lie that they had released the abducted Chibok girls, and the back story which led to the mutiny at the Maimalari Barracks in Maiduguri, I knew my support could no longer be unconditional. I began to take anything the army said with a pinch of salt.

Today, I saw firsthand the Nigerian Army in action in Lagos… I have never seen anything like it in my life.

A soldier was knocked down and killed by a BRT bus in Lagos. Soldiers in army green stormed Ikorodu road where the buses ply and first thing they did was to close the road from Palmgrove where the accident reportedly happened. The closure immediately caused a massive traffic gridlock. But that was just the beginning.

The soldiers began attacking BRT buses on the road. They vandalised the buses, broke the glasses and windscreens, and deflated the tyres. I got a call about the incident and immediately went to see for myself.

The first scene that greeted me at Palmgrove was a journalist being viciously beaten by the soldiers. “Please I’m a journalist,” he kept saying, pleading with them. They did not care – a female soldier led that attack. The offence of that journalist was that he was bold enough to take photos of the vandalised buses. His ipad was seized and he was so badly brutalised that he had to be rushed to the hospital.

Soldiers demanded that Nigerian civilians passing along Palmgrove raise their two hands in the air, as though we are in a war situation. No one was permitted to hold his phone in his hand or receive a call. Not even those driving-by in their cars were spared. A young soldier slapped a man making a call inside a bus because he disobeyed an order he was not even aware of.

Things got even worse. Some of the onlookers told me that a senior officer came by and directed the soldiers on ground to burn the parked buses. I did not see that officer but I saw soldiers as they went into two nearby petrol filling stations, ordered the attendant to fill some kegs with petrol and carry it to a spot where one of the buses was parked. I watched as soldiers got into the bus and emptied the keg of fuel inside it right there by the side. Then they struck a match and it was in flames.

On either side of that burning bus, there was massive traffic and cars (including fuel tankers) were moving slowly. The soldiers did not care and commuters prayed as they moved past. They did not even have the luxury of turning back as the road was blocked.

I was there when a Peugeot car with a tinted glass and plate number NA-911934 arrived the scene and two young-looking officers stepped out. I do not know much about army ranks but a friend by my side saw their stars and cap and told me that one was a captain and the other a Lt-Colonel. I went close to see if I could get their names but they had removed their name tags of course. The other officers recognised the presence of their bosses with the usual greeting as the two men strutted calmly away from my spot.

I am sharing the entry of those officers because some people are currently trying to frame this story on social media as though it was something that was done by a few “disgruntled” soldiers in the rank and file. That is not and cannot be true. Those soldiers could not have been so bold to stay there for over 5 hours and all that time, there was not a call from their superiors asking them to desist. All of Lagos had heard the news, yet people who push this theory of a “few disgruntled soldiers” want us to believe that the bosses had not heard and could do nothing. That’s illogical!

At the Palmgrove bus stop, four BRT buses were parked, just in front of the MRS filling station. I saw a female soldier shout, “We suppose start one smoke from there.” I reached her and said, “Aunty please I beg, this is so close to the filling station, it might cause an explosion.” She couldn’t believe what she was hearing from this small, uniformless person: “If I send you slap ehn. Gerraway from here,” she told me, and I ‘gorrawayed.’

The soldiers got petrol, emptied it inside the middle bus and set it on fire. Before long, the four buses were on fire.

I and a few friends wanting to know the exact spot the incident happened, went to speak with security men guarding the entrance into the Palmgrove estate. They told us that they did not know what happened but that all of a sudden they saw a crowd rushing into their estate (the crowd was being chased by soldiers.) The guards quickly rushed to close the gates against the onrushing crowd. Apparently the soldiers believed that the BRT drivers had run into the estate and the guards were attempting to close the gates to shield them. They beat up the three elderly guards. One of them told us he had pains on his arms and legs, the other was still in shock, the last one was in the hospital.

We immediately left for the Ultima Medicare Clinic at 2A Cappa Avenue, Palmgrove where the third guard was admitted but we were denied entrance. According to them, “Chairman says it is an internal matter.”

By 1pm, when I left the scene, the soldiers were still there, most of them now seated in their Hilux vans with “OP MESA” written on them, others controlling the traffic, others seizing cameras, and others pushing back onlookers. Their colleague had died (some people I spoke to said the dead soldier was supposed to get married tomorrow and some said he was a colonel; I don’t believe either). Either way, he was gone. His colleagues will never see him again, but as I left, I noticed a group of soldiers, huddled together, laughing – it’s been a good day’s job. They had put the ‘fear of god in hapless civilians.’

On a final note, as I was writing this, I saw an update from Musiliu Obanikoro, the minister of state for defence (who was not at the scene), saying he has been briefed by the chief of army staff (who was not on the scene) that “some thugs in the area took advantage of the incident to wreak havoc and the military has taken necessary steps to restore peace and forestall further breakdown of law and order.” Obanikoro knows that he is lying, but he won’t stop – it’s just how they roll. Before there is even an investigation, there is already a cover-up.

I know that there are a few good men in our military and I thank them for all the times they have discharged their duties with uprightness and professionalism. But all over the country, it is now clear that there are certainly more lawless men in our army than responsible individuals. An army that believes in jungle justice is a perversion. The Army I saw today was not that glorious army which we used to rave about when they go on foreign missions and who people say are the most professional on the continent. The army I saw was a gang of buccaneers, a vicious rampaging locust-like evil on green that should be utterly ashamed of itself and that is in much need of a reform. But I am not hopeful.

Since you want to quote the Bible.

Wives, place yourselves under your husbands' authority.
This is appropriate behavior for the Lord's people. Col. 3:18

Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own
husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word,
they may be won over without words by the behavior of
their wives. 1Peter 3:1

ritababe:
I open a thread last time asking why a guy i met on a bus did not take my number after helping me so much, though the thread was full of insult because of my bad english, well thanks anyway i will keep on learning.

Now back to the topic, the guy called me yersterday and we talk for like 30 minutes, he saw my fb name when i was chatting with one of my friends on the bus that day, thats how he got my number on my facebook profile, (thats why he didnt bother to ask for it)

Thanks to those that advice, insult me and everybody.

(i believe before i come back, i will see like 8 pages full of insult)

shortgun:
I guess it's different strokes for different folks....... it's a wife we are talking about here, ideally her body belongs to you d husband, she ceases to have control over her body from the day she says "I do", she's not supposed to detect days her husband can make love to her or not.

Call me conservative or crude but I still believe that if marriages must work, women ought to summit totally to their husbands.
Sex is very important to me and others who have my kind of libido/mentality , if my wife can't keep up............... dat will be her undoing, I don't expect you to be like me...... After all you are drnoel and I am Shortgun.

Olutola88:
As much as I don't support a man going on faithful just because his wife denies him occasionally, I still won't want you to say there is more to life than sex. SEX is LIFE to some people. Some people just have one exceedingly high Libido I can't comprehend. Do we blame them for the super secretion of hormones? I really don't know

shortgun:
Yes we are goats and dogs, we are all animals abi u no do biology
We are of equal libido if not higher libido with the goats and dogs.
I don't know for you oooo but if my wife denied me sex and konji hold me like mad, I will look for it elsewhere without drama.

shortgun:
Don't think dat been married means you will get se.x anytime you want it frm ya wify most times women(married) use se.x as a weapon/bargaining chip....... this is counter productive.

There are times when your lovely wedded wife will deny you..... u definitely will look elsewhere, body nobi wood.

Atouke:
Inferiority complex they worry you this third generation ghanaian working as gate man in lagos, you and your parents refused to leave nigeria since the last exodus of job seeking ghanaians invaded nigeria, You prefered to live as an illegal alien in Lagos rather than go back to you country.

Nigerian do not need lessons from IMF on how to run our economy, thats why we are not running our economy aground and seeking handout/loans from IMF.

Chai! Ndo o?

philips70:
Out of where? Are you sure you are in this country at all? Thank God we still have some God fearing members of the bench who still believe stealing and collection of bribes are corruption and will not collect money to subvert the law. In any case find time to be watching your TV where you can get reliable information and not rely only on Nairaland which is filled with liars and political conmen.

philips70:
You have really not seen the desperation of Mr President yet. You and others still in that train will see worst desperation if things really start getting awry for his 2015 project. Wear your seat belts! On this one he has failed

UniqueGem:
They've been married for 21years, this justifies the claim that u're either 19years or below unless you were born out of wedlock. So sweety where you born out of wedlock or just a kid(19yrs)?
One thing you don't know sweety, if you talk too much, you won't know when you'll start spilling the truth.
