hefexzy: Sylvester Omoroni was a victim of bully in his school Dowen college, which resulted to him losing his life after sustaining internal injuries from the bully. His family had went ahead to employ the service of Mr Femi Falana, a Lawyer.
On December 9 during a space Kemi Olunloyo hosted on twitter, the renowned self acclaimed journalist said 12 years old Sylvester was willing to join cult, agreed to be beating and also accepted to drink engine oil.
Kemi also went ahead to say he willingly told the guys initiating him that he has seen his sisters unclothedness. She also compared boarding school to Big Brother Naija.
Ever since she made that statement, she is been dragged on all social platform. Some people called her demented, some called her callous, some said she has been paid to say that, other people called her an insensitive mother.
joyandfaith: Minors do not have emotional intelligence to punish minors. The practice should be stopped. It is archaic and barbaric.
Lol. Continue. Archaic and barbaric. We have heard. It requires emotional intelligence to punish others - LOL!!
What I am against is school lack of oversight on such things. There should be a formalised process for such things. I am not against seniors punishing juniors where clear definition on the punishments are stated.
joyandfaith: Seniors punishing juniors is not right. Minors shouldn't be disciplining minors.
It is not wrong. The problem is definition of the punishment. It also depends on the school.
Schools are clear on this. Parents should read the rules of the schools. Some schools allow seniors to punish juniors. At times the school requests that seniors do so. I was in a school where SS3s were often requested to punish armed robbers as an SS3 student and there was clear definition.
For those who recognise Koshoni and Aikhomu house, na 5th set I hail from.
If it is not too late, sit down and ask yourself why the UBA woman's offer is interesting. Also think what would likely happen during and after the meeting.
Personally I am loyal to my partner. I don't care if the grass is greener on the other side. The person I know is better than the person I don't know.
Also I would consider my personal security. She may be setting you up to be kidnapped.
efosky1246: My brother, you almost brought tears to my eyes with this your write-up. It's a pleasure to know good men still exist.
I keep saying it that most dysfunctional marriages, not all(before they come for my head) is usually the fault of the man. From a surface point of view, it might seem like it's the woman. But most times. The woman is reacting to the deficiencies in the man.
When you treat a normal, healthy woman right and act like a leader, set the tone in the relationship. Not just shouting "I am the man" up and down. There is no how she would not submit and respect you. Men need to be held more accountable.
We should grab a drink together if you're keen. Would love to connect in person.
Unfortunately life is not 2+2=4. Treating a woman right doesn't equate to not having issues in the marriage. Your post will be hailed by those whose agenda it suits.
pmoye: Thanks for your choice of words, financially sufficient to provide ... for his family. It probably would have been a better choice in my original post, but then I needed to paint a graphic picture so I used the word rich. Little did I know that some individuals hate that word... I consider being financially sufficient to provide for one's family as being rich. And such provision will not stop at just food, must be good food, health care, education and a decent status in the society. These things are really basic needs even though many now consider them luxury.
Agreed, Financially stable and sufficient would have been a better phrase. There are levels to this game of getting money.
If my mother had followed your advice, I wouldn't be alive today and I suspect neither would a very high proportion of the world.
TL/DR: This advice should be taken very carefully!! Rather ensure that before you get married both of you are able to take care of the family you want to set up.
By the way if she says she was testing you or that can't you take a joke or she will change. Exit the relationship. University age is not the age for stupidity.
SmartPolician: That's FALSE, huncle. Festus Keyamo is a SAN, meaning that he knows Nigeria's law deeply. He needs someone who understands the law as much as he does to engage him in such intellectual discussions. Unfortunately, Seun didn't do a good job.
my opinion - SAN is nothing nowadays. It no longer has as much respect. It only proves the person read some books very well. By the behaviour of the SAN bearing officials in the Nigerian government over the last few regimes, it stands for nothing.
I do not blame Seun for not probing. This government doesn't take kindly to criticism.
SmartPolician: I shook my head when you claimed that Festus Keyamo is stupid without stating how. That man is way too smart and intelligent for Seun Okin to interview him.
I think it's only Maupe Ogun-Yusuf who has the experience and intellectual capacity to engage Mr. Keyamo in such conversation.
I watched the interview and was surprised how Seun would let him get away with his controversial answers, probably because he doesn't know how to counter them.
Most likely if Seun tries to counter them he may be invited for further discussions by a government agency.
When the government's actions matches its talk then perhaps people will join. People blew whistle on corruption and what protection was given to them?
Your government's expenditure is off the roof. Your promises during campaign have not been met. Very few Nigerians trust any arm of the government be it executive, judicial, or law making.
What are you capable of doing for me? It means I can even organise a contest with the first place price been 250k.. let me find which lady will do wonders.
Whether cheating or not, I am surprised she is not at the children's side. When I had ordinary gas from eating beans, my mother (God bless her) postponed her activities and sat down with me to help ease the pain.
This one, kids are admitted in clinic and yet ..hmm. I don't know about cheating o but there better be a very good reason. Mothers don't joke around with sick children.
plaindealer: How did the panel in the same report strongly believed and deemed it credible that only 3 of the bodies that they conducted postmortem examination on were from Lekki and only one had Gunshot injury and still went on to 9 dead people based on words of mouth that was never testified to before the panel.
You see why this dubious panel and their report are getting trashed.
Inconsistencies, misrepresentations, illogical contradictions and absurdities all over.
You read over 200 plus pages of a document. Interesting and this is the leaked one. The real one hasn't come out yet. Very interesting.
How many normal people will sit down to read over 200 pages of a report? And then go back and be identifying inconsistencies in the report. You have exposed yourself. Greet your handlers. Let them change their game plan.
