So 90% of Yorubas allowed the 10% of Yoruba agberos to stop non-yorubas from voting in Lagos?

You call it little intimidation? Do you know some people lost their lives especially people from the Niger delta?

ALISMILE:
Igbos aren’t the only tribe living outside their region. I’m not from the SW but I live in Lagos.
The idea of census is to help have an idea of population trend to help govt plan for people.
How can you be living all your life in Lagos and when it’s time for census you take that count to your village?
Why are you Igbos like this?
Now you are already saying that the census is targeted at the Igbos
Unfortunately, this your line of reasoning is exactly how the great majority of Ibos are thinking
Too bad

I served in Asaba last year. I had to rent a room and parlor self contain for 650k

Abegi, hold your applause and adulation first until 2027… Count me out of those who would be affected by hard economic effects from N750/L after subsidy removal.

MikeofAfrica:
Actions speak louder than voice. By going for a Muslim Muslim ticket, Tinubu was the chief architect of campaigning with religion in the last election.

The purpose of the Muslim Muslim ticket is to symbolize the APC ticket as an Islamic ticket hence mobilizing the Muslim population in NW/ NE behind it.

Peter Obi was reacting to the religious bigotry of Tinubu by trying to use Christian leaders to mobilize Christians behind his ticket.

For every action , there will be an equal and opposite reaction according to the laws of motion by Issac Newton.

How did you come about this knowledge? Did you carry out a research or did you read the results of studies on marriages




How do you prepare for the future? Is there a certain way you prepare against unforseen circumstances? Remember that in your first paragraph, you asked someone not to generalize a situation. But that is exactly what you have done in this paragraph of yours. You have assumed that anyone who has planned well for marriage would automatically have a thriving marriage.







Yet again, you contradict your first paragraph. China is not Nigeria. Realities are different. It is actually much easier for the average Chinese man to acquire an apartment before marriage. Perhaps, you don't know, but the average Chinese has a better standard of living than people from many of the Western nations, including the Americans. In Nigeria, a man who manages to get into a public university does not even know when he would finish. And even when he manages to finish, the competition in the labour market is so high that he might have to start contemplating a master's. In a country with little regards for education, he has to pay through his nose to get through his master's program. Despite the subsidy in education, I know how much I spent on seminars and mini projects to finish a master's at OAU. And that was after a 7-year BSc program (instead of 4 years).







If that is the case, why are billionaires divorcing as well? Dangote has divorced three times. Dino Melaye may not be a billionaire, but he is loaded. Yet, he has been married twice. FFK has been married four times. Oyakhilome divorced his wife. Pastor Chris married twice.


Even the China that you mention, divorce rate was so high until the government introduced a cooling off law that made divorce processes difficulty. Now, divorce rate has dropped, but guess what, the rate of marriages have also dropped. People are avoiding marriage in China.






The only thing I can say is that you are lucky. Only a few people are lucky to find a truly compatible partner. In fact, the rates of divorce around the world (there is data for this) shows that many are unlucky in their marriages. And I am sure there may be those who did far more research than you did before agreeing to marry their spouse.





Do you have figures for this claim?





While this advice is great, it doesn't guarantee anyone a thriving marriage. Even if your wife has a job, handiwork or education, if she lacks foresight, it would be a waste. And even foresight itself is still not enough without some bit of luck.






Again, how did you know many homes are enjoying their marriages? You have yet contradicted your Paragraph 1.



The fact that you are enjoying your marriage does not automatically mean that MANY are enjoying theirs.



Remember that divorce rate does not even tell the whole story. There may be people who are unhappy in their marriages but are staying because of the children or because of the culture of shaming divorced women.

Zonefree:
Any man under the age of 45 coming here to say he's enjoying a thriving marriage with his Nigerian wife is telling a big fat lie!

IblivinJesus:
You suppose discuss such thing with her before marriage .

Even if you are dangote you should both agree on responsibilities to handle with your wife.
65 percent from you and 35 percent from her is not bad or even 60 40.

However, take her out to somewhere nice and during your enjoyment time discuss it with her that you would like the both of you to take responsibility of the home so that one person doesn't get depressed .
Ask her an open question
What responsibility would she like to handle in the house?
What ever responsibility she accepts start from there even if it is 80 20 with time she will grow mature but if she doesn't accept to take any responsibility your name is OYO .

Plan B
After about three months she gave you the response that she is not going to take any responsibility;

Tell her you boroad money and you are paying back with interest and cut short the money you give to her.

Since she is working she will adjust .

Lastly,
Give her timely gifts.

Don't gift her as if you are trying to woo her.

You also need to start attending church with her if you don't,it will help .

1. Let's me honest. Nigerian culture is to blame for women believing this by default.

*PRESS RELEASE*

APC's Endless Subterfuge Must Stop.

It appears the All Progressives Congress' desperation to grab and retain power by foul means has refused to go away more than a month after they have grabbed the election as they planned.
While we are toeing the constitutional path to retrieve our mandate, those who have truncated the wishes of the majority of Nigerians have recoursed to mischief and endless subterfuge to continue to hold on to what they know does not belong to them.
From the show of shame in Portharcourt to the drama in the Ibom Air aircraft, both of which they contrived, they have now moved to the circulation of a deep fake audio file aimed at promoting religious tension in the country.
All these are meant to serve no other purpose than egregious mischief aimed at demarketing Peter Obi. If the goal is to create a credibility problem, the ploy has failed woefully. Peter Obi has long been on record as the only presidential candidate who has urged the Nigerians electorate not to vote for him on the basis of religion or tribe .
We will therefore
like to advice our beloved Nigerian people to remain focused on the task to take back the mandate we know was freely given to Peter Obi and Datti Baba-Ahmed through legitimate means.
That is more important than to expect those who ran election on forged credentials and even fake Bishops to stop faking. They cannot stop being fraudulent because that is who they are.

Seem the jobless of attacking Peter Obi because of religiosity will never cease. We are religious no doubt but enthroning a religiously polarised government in a multi-secular country which Buhari and Tinubu typified is the most dangerous trend not healthy for a nation.
