5 Great Women Mistakes That Completely Disappoint Men
In our desire to have this man in our lives, we commit these 5 mistakes that, contrary to what we want to achieve, end up disappointed him FOREVER.

It all begins when we feel we are not getting the attention that, in our view, “we deserve.”

1. Make claims
Whether in a relationship that is starting now or already has a time, one of the mistakes most women make is to start claiming things. For romantic relationships to work, they must be reciprocal, back and forth.

We often feel that we are not getting the attention we deserve, or we talk to a friend that he did or did not do something, and on hearing this he advises us saying that it is not fair and we should claim.

The claims NEVER work in any aspect of life, unless it is a monetary agreement. When we have just met someone, we use all our best qualities in the phase in which we are meeting and falling in love, he responds positively to it, but in the face of the slightest change in his attitude, our insecurity takes over our lives and we REJECT.

This makes us look insecure and desperate. And I assure you that most of us do not have any of these characteristics in any other aspect of life. What started as a fairy tale turns into a horror movie and shows you a picture of us totally out of control.

2. Draw attention
In our desperation to get back to the point of the relationship in which things were well and everything flowed more easily than oxygen through your lungs, we tried to draw attention.


We have already claimed and made demands and it did not work, on the contrary, the only thing we managed to do was to start distancing him. So we start doing what we can to catch your eye.

We text messages “by accident” just to have an excuse to talk to him or to start a conversation. We go to the places he goes to try to see him, we use our mutual friends to help us find an excuse to meet.

“We’ve become boring,” as my grandmother used to say, and things just slip away from our control. That woman holds, shocking, the woman who knows what he has known no longer exists. We become a pile of nerves and insecurities contradicting everything we show initially.

3. Inventing stories
As other things did not work, we have the bright idea of trying to make you jealous. This is the worst idea we can have.

We know that we are failing because we try to do everything to try to get his attention, and mistakenly, we think that if we do the opposite, we will make him crazy for us.

We pretend to be busier with a new friend, or with the gym teacher, we try to make him believe we are dating other men and he’s not the last one in the pack.

Why is this bad? Because our life goes on even when he is no longer in it, and in our desperate attempts to get him back we create the image of an easy woman that if she can not get what she wants at the moment she wants, place.


If the man you like was having doubts about what he felt for you, do not worry, you just sorted out your doubts by showing him that you are not the kind of woman he thought you were, and it no longer makes sense stay with you.

4. Create a different version of ourselves
Everything else did not work, so you recreate yourself pretending to be someone who has nothing to do with your real personality.

You think you know exactly what kind of women this man wants (and he’s convinced he’s not the kind of woman you are). Suddenly you become a fan of the football team he likes, you dress like him, goes where he goes and destroys all the traces left by the woman he thought he knew.

The most important thing you have is yourself, and this version is the best. When you camouflage yourself, the only thing you can do is buy a ticket to the failure of your relationship. If you can fool him, it will only be for a while, one day you will get bored or he will just realize and then things between you will end there.

5. To despair
We are convinced that we have lost the battle and call for complete despair. We send messages with double meaning, on the one hand you say that you do not care and that you just wanted an adventure, and on the other you complain about him not wanting it anymore. In short, the desperation to know that you made a mistake, that maybe if you had had a little more patience, things would have been different, lead to more crazy.

Trust in yourself, in your worth, in the fact that if things have to happen, they will go away without you having to move a finger. Do not let go of who you really are, do not doubt yourself and, above all, have PATIENCE.

7 Truths Every Parent Must Tell Their Children About Valentine
February is here again! February 14th (Valentine’s day) for many people, is a special day in their calendar. The day becomes the talking point for many people, this is why parents must educate their children properly so they won’t be deceived.


Parents must know that children as old as two years are aware of this period even if their parents seem not to be aware of this.

Valentine is celebrated in most Primary and Secondary schools and these little children may be taught wrongly by teachers who are corrupt. This is why the responsibility lies with the parent to give their children the right information.


Parents must know that children as old as two years are aware of this period even if their parents seem not to be aware of this.

Valentine is celebrated in most Primary and Secondary schools and these little children may be taught wrongly by teachers who are corrupt. This is why the responsibility lies with the parent to give their children the right information.


This little girl had no idea what it meant to lose one’s virginity because the parents never told her about it.

Parents must learn from this and inform their children both male and female to stay away from pre-marital sex despite the fact that the society accepts it. Share experiences with your child so that they will not forget your warning.

Gifts received on Valentine’s day can be a trap
As the custom is on Valentine’s day, gifts will be exchanged all over even among children. Parents must inform their children that gifts do not show a person’s love as some give gifts just to get what they want from the other person.

Your children must know that the gift alone does not matter but the motive behind the gift and also who the giver is.

Valentine’s day is not lover’s day
I will not bore you with the history of Valentine’s day which shows us that it was not emotional attraction to a person that led to this yearly celebration but a life of sacrifice.

As a parent, you have to let your child know that the 14th of February is not a day for lovers to express their love to each other but a day that reminds us to show love to humanity and our neighbours.

Valentine’s day is not a day to get a boyfriend/girlfriend
So many teenagers and young children have been deceived that they must enjoy valentine’s day with a boy/girlfriend and this has led to a lot of harm like unwanted pregnancy, abortion, death and so on.

It is your duty as a parent to educate your children against doing such as this will keep them away from the dangers out there.

Valentine’s day is not a day to accept proposals
The atmosphere on valentine’s day makes a lot of people to make rash decisions they can regret all their lives. If you are a parent with older children who are matured and ready for marriage, tell them that they should delay saying yes or agreeing to a marriage proposal on valentine’s day as a result of the mood they are.

Valentine’s day is not a day to stay out late
Valentine’s day, as usual, is going to be busy everywhere with a lot of celebrations and drinking happening all around. Parents should inform their children to come back home early enough so as to avoid falling victim of any mishap.

Snoring is the third biggest cause of divorce

After money problems and infidelity, snoring appears with the third biggest cause of divorce. Everyone snores. There are, however, the so-called pathological snores that produce so much noise that it bothers not only those close to the snorer but the people in the house and in some cases even the neighbors, as is the case of an English lady who snores so loudly as well as the noise of a low-flying jet – that is 112 decibels. According to the world health organization, over 40 decibels is already noise pollution.


This is a problem that affects half of men from the age of 40 and a quarter of women.


The noise bothers and wakes the partner who does not snore. But, this is not exactly the problem that leads to divorce, although it does contribute. After all, when the partner snores too much, or too loudly, couples choose to sleep in different places, damaging not only sexual intimacy but also talking about the day’s bedtime issues.


The biggest problem is in the quality of sleep and how it affects the mood of the couple. According to a researcher of Rush Medical Center in Chicago, and one of the few scientists in the world to study the relationship between marriage and sleep apnea, couples in which one partner snores, often quarrel, or has more disagreements than others without the problem.



This is because at each snore (an average of 300 a night), both the snorer and the non-snorer wake-up and take up to 4 minutes to return to the previous stage of sleep, which ends up subtracting 2 hours of sleep per night. So, instead of sleeping the required 8 hours, the person sleeps only 6 hours.


While the snorer does not notice that he has woken up, the partner perceives and suffers. The result is fatigue, irritation, difficulties in entering into a consensus and a sense of inequality towards the snorer.



The long-term result is the wear and tear of the relationship, constant fights and consequently the divorce. This is a problem that can be avoided if both partners are willing to do something about it.


Although this problem has so great an impact that it becomes the third largest cause of divorce, only 10% of people seek help. So, don’t suffer in silence, make sure you talk to your partner so that the issue can be resolved.

Each couple can create their way to love, and for them, this will work perfectly. However, according to a survey conducted by a couple of American psychologists with 13,000 marriages, it was concluded that it is the small attitudes and works of day to day that make a love strong and lasting, or not.

Simple gestures of generosity and kindness can greatly influence one another’s, love. Check out some of these gestures that indicate that you are in a strong and lasting relationship:

1. Completely unafraid to speak or charge something?
Obviously, on many occasions, we need to curb our language and take care of what we say, yet in a complete and happy relationship, both have the freedom to tell each other everything they think, without forgetting the touch and the loving way!

When we feel comfortable with the person we are, we get the freedom to ask for more, to want the other to do something we want, after all, we trust fully in the love we receive, so we make these requests without fear.

2. Education and respect
In addition to the common courtesy that exists among the people we live in when love is greater and different, we seek to treat that person with the highest possible excellence, with all kindness, gentleness, and care.

If you are living a love that when you are together you can feel that a little piece of heaven lives with you, so hold on tightly this love and take good care of it!

3. Love is in the air! Romanticism
Simple gestures in the smallest detail, this is to be romantic, to realize what will bring happiness to the other through simple things, but with deep meanings.

Romantic love is necessary for every phase of life to two, this romanticism adapts of course, but it is not lost, a garden rose, a tender note, a loving message, this is a worthwhile love!

4. Patience on both sides
We all change for love, one thing or another, but these changes do not occur like a magic and exactly when we want, they happen gradually with the coexistence and patience!

Waiting for the changes to happen is a deep demonstration of love. To help the other to realize with all patience that their actions are not so good, it requires a lot of dedication and a huge love involved!

5. Good humor together or apart
When walking the streets a silly smile can pop up in your mind or even on your lips, without you noticing, when thinking about something they talked or planned.

Joy, good humor, laughter, and antics are present in the strongest relationships. The couple laughs at their nonsense, at other people’s nonsense, and sometimes they even laugh in the midst of trouble. Laughing and making others laugh is pure love!

Love more, be more love! And you will find true happiness in the relationship to two.

Is your sex life becoming less and less interesting or is there something you want your spouse to do in bed, but he or she is not doing yet? The good news is, you can enjoy your sex life, you can still have the exciting and fulfilling sex life, just put the following in place in your marriage:

(1) Togetherness: This aids sex in marriage. Statistics show that couples, who are fond of staying together in the same room, make love more than couples who stay apart. Do things together, talk, play, plan and bath together. The more time you spend together, the more romantic your marriage becomes. The more intercourse takes place in your marriage.

(2) Love: Sex can either be mating or lovemaking Animals mate, while married couples should make love. Mating can take place without love, care, attention, communication, and affection. Love making can only take place in the atmosphere of real and romantic love. Fulfilling sex can only take place when couples make love, not when they mate. Love each other generously, do everything to encourage love. Let love making flow.

(3) Knowledge: You cannot enjoy sex beyond the level of your knowledge about love, marriage, romance, and sex. You need to learn and improve your knowledge about sex. Learn new things. Do not remain stagnant. Deliberately learn new and creative ways to make love. Make your sex life fun.


(4) Privacy: Lack of privacy destroys sexual life in marriage. Couples should endeavor to have their rooms to themselves as good sex only survives under the atmosphere of privacy.

(5) Good health: Sexual relationship demands energy which only healthy people can give.
Taking good care of your health will help your sex life a lot.

If you can put all these into practice the good sex life that you desire will come in and you beginning to enjoy each other.

Being in a stable relationship is the ultimate goal of every Man. Your Girlfriend may love you from here to Pluto but there are certain things they keep or hide from you. This is to spare your feelings or because they’re too afraid to admit what’s really on their minds.

Here are 9 things girls hide from their partners:



1. She still checks up on her exes.
Your girlfriend had broken up with someone before they met you. Maybe it was their first love or that boyfriend they just check on to know how “They are fairing” or they want to be “just friends”. Either they text a lot or they communicate through other means.


2. There is a member of your family she doesn’t like.
In every family, there is that family member that everyone doesn’t like. Maybe it’s your drunk uncle or that chatty – nosey auntie but there is definitely a member of your family that she doesn’t like.



3. That she still has photos of her ex.
Most of the women will admit they still have that photo of their exes that they kept. It might be that special photo they took on their day out when she fell in love for the first time or just a photo of her ex that holds some memory to it.



4. That she is afraid of commitment.
It’s usually men who are afraid of commitment in a relationship. However, some women are scared of devoting their lives to someone in a committed relationship. They are afraid if you are the right person to spend their lifetime with.

5. Her best friend knows everything about you.
Your girlfriend will not tell you that her best friend knows everything about you. From the size of your bank account to the size of your other, um ….When you meet her best friend and she is looking at you weirdly, she knows –and you cannot do anything.



6. She will never tell you how many men she has slept with in the past.
So she was honest and told you she had slept with four men in the past? No, actually when a woman tells you she has slept with four men the correct number is 7. This is partly intentional, don’t judge her she doesn’t want to appear “loose.”

7. She has stalked your exes.
Chances are, she has stalked at least one of your exes. Either online or physical if she knew them. She has at one time gone through your phone just to see if you talk to your ex.



8. She’s constantly testing you.
Remember that time she asked you what would you do if you discovered if she cheated? Yes, she was testing you. She constantly observes, analyzes, and judges every action, word, gesture when you are talking to her to see your reaction on sensitive matters.



9. She loves it when you get jealous.
When you ever see her flirting in front of you with the waiter, the conductor, or another guy at a party, know she’s actually flirting with you—through him. She wants to see how jealous you can get and if you really care about her.

Kissing is a demonstration of love, attraction, and surrender to a person, it is an intimate action that unites the couple, where they experience magical moments that strengthen the relationship. It is the ideal way to convey emotions and feelings. Sometimes kisses even alienate a person or make them mad with love.

In many cultures kisses are demonstrations of love, friendship, trust, peace, respect or a simple greeting, just rub the nose of the couple to kiss in the form of an Eskimo. Did you know that the meaning of kissing is different in different parts of the world?

There are many ways to kiss and each transmits different messages. So be aware that when kissing your partner, you have the assurance that he will not be able to forget you.

Photo news: Pastor Kunle Ajayi celebrates 30 years on stage

https://dailyfamily.ng/photo-news-pastor-kunle-ajayi-celebrates-30-years-on-stage/

To number well in the Nigerian Gospel music space, names of percussionist musical group, the list will never be complete until such name as Ayan Jesu is included. The Ayan Jesu musical band has revolved over the years from just doing music but delivering Spirit inspired songs and transforming lives via their creativity on drums basically and other musical instruments. In this interview with the band, Fabajo Kehinde Olatunde, representing the group tells how members of the group have been able to manage their family lives amid tight engagements. He likewise spoke of successes recorded so far within the space of 17-years it started.


Can we meet you sir?
My name is Fabajo Kehinde Olatunde, one of the members of Ayan Jesu gospel singers.

Can you tell us about the creation of this gospel band?
I will say it was God that established the group because it was something that we cannot comprehend up until now. Actually the vision was given to one of us. The vision was given to one of our brothers in church. We all grew up together. He just came up with the idea that most of us are western instrumentalist, we play Gongo (talking drum) guitar and then ask sometimes back that, is there some way we can praise God in a unique way and that was how Ayan Jesus came to be. We started having some members play drums and some others saying what the drummer is beating and that was how Ayan Jesu started. The group was actually conceptualized in the year 2000 but we fully came out in the year 2001. And we thank God for where we are, 17-years ago, up until now.


We have seen couple of Ayan Jesu musical videos but the group seem to have performed more with percussion. You seem somehow unique about that. Will you tell us why it is like that?
From the name, we have Ayan Jesu and if we should give it the real interpretation from the Yoruba meaning, ‘Ayan‘ is someone that plays the talking drum. And when we talk about ‘Ayan’, we talk mainly about percussion and some instrument accompanying it such as gangan, akuba, omele, bata and some other drums. So when you talk about percussion, it reflects our name, Ayan Jesu. So combining Ayan with Jesus. So when you are talking about Ayan and percussion is not there, it’s just like you don’t know what you are talking about.


In setting up this band what where the major challenges you faced?
We faced a lot of challenges but we are thanking God today that those challenges, we have left them behind. Number one when we started there was no means of transportation for us then, nobody was ready to invite us. Then, we have to bring money from our own pocket to transport ourselves to wherever we were going to minister. Another thing is in the area of instrument. When we started all these instruments we are using today were not ours, some of them we have to borrow them so as to use for ministration. We pay for them just as you are renting something and after usage, we return them back to the owner. But today, those ones are stories and we are thanking God for where we are already. And another one i will not like to ignore is that, sometimes ago we lost one of us in a ghastly motor accident when we were going for ministration. So i will say God understand more better than we do. So to cut it short, those are the challenges we have been faced with in times past.

So can you tell us how many ministrations you have been able to cover since the inception of this gospel band?
It is enormous. I don’t think i can give it a figure. Since inception, let me say a million so that i will not be exaggerating. It may not be up to that, but at least God has helped us to minister on different platforms that some of us cannot remember again.


Where can you say is the greatest platform you have ministered so far?
I will say it is Redemption camp, Redeemed Christian Church of God. That is our church and that is the greatest platform any musician in Nigeria can desire to minister.



So what are your projections for this new year. What are your special ways you intend to minister the gospel to the world this year?
This year we are believing God that He is going to help us more than the ways He has been doing. We have a new album to our credit so very soon we will be going for its Videoshoot and we are hoping that it will draw men to God the more. We are not entertainers, i am sorry for digressing, people tend to see us as one but we are ministers of the gospel. And we believe that through the instruments of our ministry, we know we can reach out to the needy and the lost soul for Jesus Christ.


How have you been able to manage your family time with several ministrations you have been having over the years?
I will tell you it has not been easy because as a minister of the gospel, its very good for you not to fail in your family. I think maybe a pastor said it that if you fail in your family, that means in your ministry, you are going to fail. It has not been easy going for ministrations, travelling up and down in the night but we always find time to make it up to our family because we have family and children God has given to us to look after. So we cannot just ignore them becuase if we fail in that capacity, then in the ministry God has put in our hand… God forbid.

What can you call your greatest motivation so far in this Evangelistic assignment?
Motivation! Well it is God that has been motivating us because if people encourages you, they give you money, they give you cars, they give you things of this world, you discover that our needs as human beings according to economics is insatiable. It will never be enough. But our greatest encourager has been God. He is the one that has been encouraging us, He is the one that has been motivating us. When we dont feel like doing anything, the holyspirit is there to encourage us.


How many make people make up the Ayan Jesu band?
Actually we are eleven, we have two people in diaspora. One in Finland, the other in Canada but in Nigeria presently, we are nine.



Have you ever had any international Ministration so far?
Yes we have. We were in South Africa in the year 2014 and we had some other invitations overseas but the embassys didnt grant us visa. But we hope this year, God is opening more international door for us.

“After all, I’ve done and sacrifice for him, how can he now say it’s over, it’s not fair! where do l start from”? This and many other thoughts went through Janet’s mind and she even felt like committing suicide. Matters of the heart are so delicate and must be handled with care; not to get burnt, so many ladies have been burnt and could not help wonder if there are real men that will love them sincerely. Listed below are 9 reasons a man may break your heart:


1) When he sees you only as a girlfriend material:

Many ladies do not understand the fact that a man is professing love does not mean he sees you as good enough to take home to mama, when a man does not see you fit into his future as a partner and you only fit into his today’s world, meaning you are replaceable and he can do that any moment. 9 REASONS WHY A GUY MAY BREAK YOUR HEART



2) He has seen it all:

Many men at the beginning go into the relationship with the good intention of taking it to the altar but reconsidered when they have tasted everything, enjoying free sex, there is no reason for a man to propose to a lady if he is already getting from her everything he should be getting from a wife. Men love challenges and if you are no more giving him one, he goes about looking for a new challenge


3) If the relationship is undefined: A good reason why a guy may break your heart is when the relationship is undefined, that is who are you to him? Did he propose to you or simply ask you to be a friend? How long is it to last before you walk the aisle?

Reverend Mrs. Mary Oluwatunbi spoke to dailyfamily.ng in an exclusive interview; she spoke about the role of grandparents in helping their children in raising their own children.

Rev. Mrs. Oluwatunbi is a writer and the mother of four professional children in different fields; she spoke about how the journey so far has been for her in marriage and parenting.

Can we meet you?

I am Reverend Mrs. Mary Oluwatunbi

I have the passion for the youth, their developments and to see that they excel more than their parents. I am also into family life, raising youth and talking to mothers, I have written a book on mothers, homemakers and nation builders. As a result of my relationships, I wrote a book on relating well with your in-laws especially mother-in-laws and daughter-in-law’s problems.

Lately, I wrote a book on mitigating challenges of middle-age. How do you cope when you face reality? Some are parents and they have parents to take care of. These are problems that come with a new life that so many are not prepared for. I thank God; it has really been a best-seller.

Can you tell us about your marriage?

To God be the glory. My marriage was 34 years in July; it has been wonderful. I know the way we were brought up in school, that fear of God, submissiveness to your husband when you see him as the god in the home. It has really been a wonderful journey together.

Can you tell us your husband’s name?

He is Reverend Samuel Oluwatunbi. He also is a Minister of God, we are professionals, an architect, a writer and we have a ministry. God has really helped us. We paid attention to our children and it has really paid off. God has really been merciful; it’s not that there were no storms but because we have God in our lives, we have been able to weather through the storms and we understand ourselves better now. We give all the glory to God for the journey thus far.

What were the things that helped you channel your children through the right path?

The Grace of God is number one; then, I believe it must be better in the next generation. Our own parents, my parents were in Christ Apostolic Church, they took us to church for prayers despite their poverty, and the five of us are graduates. So, what they pumped in us. These people are not educated; they just have a primary school certificate. If they could raise us up, what about us that are graduates and we know the Lord; that was the motivating factor.

All those pieces of training we received in school, I remember in the university we do hold ladies fellowship, they taught us about the home and that really helped us. Combining with the fact that we are church founders, we cannot just be preaching. They have to see it in your life; that has really helped us. It is the grace of God; it is not what anybody can boast about.

The foundation really matters. Good homes, good children are not by chance and by wishful thinking. God has His role to play and you also have your role to play. You must be an example; it’s not enough to say do this, do that; they must see it in your life. The God that helped us will still help our children.

Did you choose careers for your children?

When we look at their areas of interest and their capability, we encourage them but not to enforce it on them. Like the first one wanted to be an accountant but her capability was not up to that. When she wrote JAMB, she could not meet the cut-off so she had to do Physical Health Education which she finds more fulfilling now. The second one, because we know she was capable, she went for medicine and God helped her, the third one because she can talk a lot, we said well, it’s either you be a Pastor or a Lawyer and the only boy we have because when daddy was working, he takes him to site and he likes Technical drawing and he ended up reading Architecture.

How do you settle misunderstandings with your husband?

Those are realities o! There are some theories that people just talk about on the pulpit. Truly, there are some misunderstandings that can last for days but you now look at it that the sun must not go down on your anger. Remember you are a leader in the church; you must not be a teacher alone, you must be a doer. So, with the Spirit of God, Holy Spirit talking to us, that is just how we resolve our differences and I discovered that as we mature in age and in a closer walk with God, our frictions have really been minimized because everybody wants to make heaven and have decided to please God.

We have known our areas of likes and dislikes. Now that we are even grandparents, seeing another generation, I really want to thank God.

How do you enjoy leisure?

Ah, we still have time to go for ministerial assignments and programmes together because gradually the house is becoming empty now that there are times; it is just only the two of us.

Your advice to couples as divorce is very common nowadays?

It is lack of understanding and there is no tolerance. You cannot have your way every time even as a man. There are times you have to be the goat or you have to be the sheep. If every time you insist on having your own way, there is going to be a problem.

So, be true to yourself, when you see some things that you don’t like in the man and there are certain things you cannot change, ask for the grace of God and you learn how to cope. Just like one book we read in those days that says admire him, adapt to him, so, there are some things you have to learn to adapt to.

It is not everything you start carrying out; even the people you are going to meet have their own problems. Don’t expose your weak areas. Celebrate your good points. The children of these days, they want ready-made food. Nobody is ready to suffer but I know it must get better with our children.

Advice on parenting

It is a lifetime work o! Even when we now have grandchildren, you still have to take care of the grandchildren, the children themselves, how they will maintain happiness in their homes, though now more as a counselor, not enforcing, realizing that they are matured adults; that is where people have problems. You can only give your counsel and not enforce it.


Parenting has to be intentional, intentional parenting, intentional teaching Don’t assume the church will do it or the school will do it. No, you have your role to play like in Deuteronomy 6:5-7, it says when you lie down when you go out, you will teach your children; you have to teach them. Don’t assume they will know it. The church, the school will complement but the primary role is for the parents.

These days, with career, people wake up early and leave the house before 6 am. They come back when the children are sleeping. It has not really helped matters, especially in this Lagos. That is why grandparents will have to be doing the work of nanny now because we can’t leave these children with house helps. There is going to be a problem; we have to be available and we find out that even as a grandmother, parenting work continues but with the grace of God, with prayers, the God that helped us will help them.

Tara, wife of Fela Durotoye, the CEO of Gemstone Group has shown her full support for her husband’s political ambition.

Recent reports have it that Fela Durotoye will be running for the position of Nigeria’s president in 2019.

Tara Fela Durutoye showed her full support for her husband’s political ambition on her Instagram page where she wrote about the various things her husband had done and is still doing to make Nigeria better.

Here is what she wrote:

“I had the privilege of introducing @feladurotoye to the group of volunteers on the New Nigeria project.

I whispered in his ears something when we hugged .

I said “My love!I give you to Nigeria” and as I walked off the stage I started to cry.

This passion for Nigeria has consumed him for as long as I have known him and he has found expressions of this passion through different projects he Has embarked on all through the years I have known him .

Project Nigeria has always been Fela’s “side hustle” as a built his career in consulting .

Not a passion for any public office but a passion for a better Nigeria we could bequeath to our children.

As friends he told me his wife was going to be very successful and I always told him it’s not possible for a successful man to have a successful wife .I didn’t know I was going to be his wife but after we married he invested so much into ensuring that I grew a successful business I knew he not only desires but adds actions to his desires.

This desire and action have become the experience I have of him.

When Fela’s sees a problem about Nigeria he will create a project to fix it galvanize people to join hands with him .This has always been his style many times at his personal cost .

Some of those projects he has embarked on include in 2009 Mushin makeover where over 250 homes were painted by 2000 young volunteers including celebrities like Banky w sound sultan,Alibaba,Kate Henshaw,OmoniOboli,Teju Babyface,sound Sultan,Ty Bello ,Dj Jimmy Jatt ,OmaWunmi,Denrele,Dele Momodu ,Tosin Bucknor ,Stella Damasus ,Tee A,Segun Dangote ,Ebuka Obi etc painting and calling for donations of paints for This project .

In 2008 he was concerned about the poor performance of students with 98% failure in Mathematics and English in (NECO) and WAEC examinations, He launched Project RAISE (Revive Academic excellence In Schools & Educational institutions),) initiative to improve the performance of secondary school students across the country.

In 2010, Fela and his team embarked on Project RAISE .By adopting the Lagos State Educational District 4 where he called for young graduates of Maths and English subjects to….

“To go to public schools to train the students, He raised a fund to supply the students

Mathematical instruments and trigonometric 4 figure tables to help them prepare for their examinations.

Fela’s most significant contribution to Nation Building is the VALUE SYSTEM which he developed & is currently being endorsed and actively promoted by over 30,000 Nigerians across all gender, tribe, social class or

The 10 Values have now been articulated into a PERSONAL CREED and is being adopted by individuals, organizations, professional associations ( such as Association of Private Educators of Nigeria, the Nigerian Institute of Mechanical Engineers and the Mortgage Bankers Association of Nigeria), and more recently government agencies and parastatals”

I believe yet again in this project like I have believed in the others and I support his desire to run for a new Nigeria .

My name is Tara Feladurotoye and I am #Running for a new Nigeria .

Is Sex Important to Marital Happiness?
Physical and emotional intimacy, internal and external factors form a successful relationship. According to a research done at Florida State University, sex is a key ingredient to marital bliss.

The results of the research were published in the journal Psychological Science, by author Andrea Meltzer The study had the participation of 214 newly married couples.

Couples should report sexual engagement with their partners, assess how satisfied they were with their sex life, and also assess how satisfied they were with their relationship and their spouse.

Research has found that physical intimacy produces a glow lasting up to 2 days, increasing long-term relationship satisfaction.


“Our research shows that sexual satisfaction remains high 48 hours after sex, and people with a stronger sexual glow – that is, people who reported a higher level of sexual satisfaction 48 hours after sex – reported higher levels of marital satisfaction Months later, “explains Meltzer.

What would be the magic number?
One study uncovered the magic number of how much sex a stable couple should make to be happy. The American research was attended by more than 30,000 people with fixed partners and was published in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science.

They found that having sex only once a week is enough to feel satisfied in the marriage. “Although more frequent sex is associated with greater happiness, this relationship is no longer significant at a frequency higher than once a week,” said researcher Amy Muise, a social psychologist at the University of Toronto-Mississauga.

“Our findings suggest that it is important to maintain an intimate connection with the partner, but it is not necessary to have sex every day for this,” he added.


Is this number realistic?
According to the sex therapist Tammy Nelson, there is a rule or standard for the sex life of a couple. The dynamics of the couple changes over the years and their needs too, so he believes there is no magic number that will bring happiness in the marriage.

In an interview with the Huffington Post, he says many couples arrive in his office with the same question: “Is my sex life normal?”

“Forget the ‘normal.’ The most important thing is to learn empathy for your partner and accept their needs, even if they are different from yours,” explains Nelson.

The therapist emphasizes that frequent conversations about her sex life and loving touches outside the bedroom may be the most important factors for relationship satisfaction.

If you answer yes to these 8 questions, you are in a happy relationship
Are you really in a happy relationship? Are you two going to hold on for long or are things grinding?

With the annoying doubts and hunches that often arise when you begin to date someone seriously, it sometimes becomes difficult to know if you are really in a good and happy relationship. In answering these eight questions, you may gain some insight and clarification about your love. But remember, it is important to be honest with yourself and respond honestly to each one of them.

1. Is she in your thoughts often?
How often do your thoughts tend to turn to her? A good sign is that she is the first person you think about when you wake up.

2. Do you care about him?
This may contradict the idea of happiness, but if you occasionally worry about your half-face, it’s a real sign that things are going very well. It makes you happy, which, in turn, makes you worry about your well-being because you care a lot about it.

3. Does she treat you with respect?
A little RESPECT does a miracle, especially with regard to happiness in the relationship. A couple in a strong and healthy relationship shows much consideration and mutual appreciation. There is by no means any happiness in the relationship when people are disrespected and coarse with each other.

4. Do you feel that it makes you a better person?
If it makes you want to be a better person (better yet, it has already made you a better person), it is almost certain that you are in a happy relationship. Not only that, but it’s a sign that your relationship will also be happy in the long run.


5. Is he kind to you?
Kindness is essential if the relationship is to be happy and healthy. You should never, ever, allow rudeness, not to mention any other form of abuse, of the person you love. Having a loving partner is a guarantee that you will find joy and satisfaction with him at your side.

6. Can you imagine what life would be like without it?
It may sound cheesy, but when people say things like “I can not imagine my life without him/her,” what they really mean is that they feel completely sure that their relationship makes them happy, and without it they would be miserable.

7. Does it make you feel special, important, and loved?
In other words, does he do those small and big things to show that he cares? Anything from a small and beautiful text message to let you know you’re in your thoughts, to a big birthday surprise; a partner in a happy relationship will make you feel special.

8. Are you happier now than you were before you met her?
This may be an obvious question to determine the happiness of a relationship, but it needs an answer to indicate to what extent things are going well. Do you really feel happier now than you did before you were together? If the answer is yes, that’s great!

Did you answer yes to the eight questions? If so, you are lucky or lucky enough to be in a happy relationship and that has taken a very promising course.

Abule Egba area of Lagos State is currently hot and people are running helter skelter due to the confrontation going on between Nigeria Custom Officers and some smugglers popularly known as ‘Fayawo’.

According to report from one of our correspondents, an unidentified corpse of a person killed from the intensive shootings going on between customs and the smugglers is currently lying under the bridge.

Dailyfamily.ng gathered that the shootings between the Customs and the smugglers started since 6 am this morning and this has made many commuters on their way to Agege to divert to another route.


Our correspondent at the scene of the shootings gathered that people were seriously blaming the custom officers for not stopping the smugglers from the border but now shooting them in Abule Egba, endangering the lives of those trying to get to work.

Those on their way to Abule Egba should try to stay away for the moment as it is unsafe.

Ibidunni Ighodalo, Ex Beauty Queen and wife of the General Overseer of Trinity House Ministries, Ituah Ighodalo shared her experience on making the right choice in marriage.

Mrs Ighodalo focused on women as she advised them to choose a man that will lead them to God instead of one that can satisfy all of their desires.

She shared her experience of how her husband then had little compared to other men around her but he never gave up on her until she said yes.


Mrs Ibidunni Ighodalo wrote on her Instagram page:

“A lifetime choice!!!!

When I was single I had a choice to choose between pleasing society or choosing a man I knew was leading me to God; they were worlds apart. To your friends and society, their expectations of your choice looks so good, well packaged and perfect for you yet the one you know will lead you to God is probably driving the oldest car amongst them, O Lord Ituah’s car was ����‍♀️�‍♀️�‍♀️, as an ex-beauty queen, I used to ask myself kai Lord what will people say, I had the most handsome, comfortable friends on my case �� any one of them was ‘seemingly’ a perfect match, we would look absolutely perfect together hmmm….. on the other hand was Ituah who did not quite ‘fit’ into that ‘perfect’ societal mould….. CONFUSION!!!���

I looked within and truly, apart from me running away from being a Pastor’s wife, I knew this man was the best choice for me, even days I asked him not to come look for me again, Ituah sent me prayers every morning, never gave up on me until I said yes!!! He shamelessly persisted ���� and till date apart from us praying together, he lays hands on my head every morning to pray for me … The way Ituah loves me ���, he is my king � the peace I have is priceless…. he did one thing right – he led me to God from day one genuinely….

You have to be honest with yourself, no one is going to live with you, don’t choose your life partner because you want to please society choose him/her because he/she leads you to God and your values align….. #Choice #GodlySpouse #RightFit #InwardVsOutward #DontFallForSocietalPressure #LikeMinds #SameValues #SameBeliefs #ChooseRight #ImProudOfYourDecision”
