He wasn’t racist, hence the appreciation. It seems he loves dark skin, peep his African wife. Many of my teachers today will be ignored past a “good [time of the day]” for acknowledgement. They spent their youth taking out frustrations on defenseless children.
In a heartwarming moment at Little Simz’s Meltdown Festival, Tiwa Savage paused her performance after recognizing her former English teacher in the crowd.
The surprise reunion sparked cheers from fans and showcased a touching full-circle moment for the singer.
Why a highway, don’t they have a government house? Take your grievances to whoever is in power. Ignorance will not be the death of the common Nigerian.
Esthered: Sixty People book space to process their thoughts before typing I think.
There are some spaces booked for almost a decade and counting. Did the people completely lose interest? I tried to nudge an active account to type a comment in a space he booked three years ago. Nothing till this day. Thank God the initiative was created and put in place. Typing comments is competitive. If one has nothing to drop at the moment, ten others do.
Esthered: Why'd you think it better in the long run?
No more space booking. People will be forced to use their brains. It takes less than two weeks to learn proper composition. We will see children here learn the skill by force. Sixty characters honestly is a better limit. Forty is too small.
ChatGPT, so it’s no different from having men of other nationalities?
kweensheba: Challenges of having Nigerian men as lovers:
1. Traditional Gender Roles: Nigerian culture, especially in more traditional settings, often emphasizes specific gender roles. Sometimes Nigerian men might expect their partners to fit traditional roles (like managing the home, cooking, etc.), which can clash with more modern or egalitarian expectations.
2. Family Influence and Expectations: Family plays a huge role in Nigerian life. Many Nigerian men have close-knit families, and family opinions or expectations can strongly influence their relationships. Sometimes family pressure to marry, have children, or behave a certain way can be intense.
3. Communication Styles: There might be differences in how openly emotions or disagreements are communicated. Some Nigerian men may come from backgrounds where expressing feelings openly isn’t the norm, which can cause misunderstandings.
4. Religious and Cultural Values: Religion is often very important in Nigerian culture. Differences in religious beliefs or practices between partners can be a source of friction, especially around topics like marriage, children, or lifestyle.
5. Jealousy and Possessiveness: Some Nigerian men may be culturally socialized to be protective or possessive in relationships, which can sometimes feel controlling depending on the individual.
6. Pressure to Marry and Have Children Quickly: In Nigerian culture, there can be strong pressure to settle down, get married, and start a family relatively early. This can feel rushed or overwhelming for partners who want to take things slower.
7. Expectations about Financial Roles: There can be strong expectations on men to be the financial provider, which might affect relationship dynamics, especially if the woman is also career-focused.
8. Dealing with Extended Family: Extended family involvement in personal relationships can be deep, with relatives sometimes stepping in or giving unsolicited advice.
The UFC is the closest thing to street fights. Once age starts getting obvious or your body is not 100%, younger fighters overtake you. Jon Jones knows it very well, hence hiding under the moniker of the goat to skip fights for years. Adesanya has gone through multiple losses as well as Kamaru Usman. Jose Aldo was dominant for a decade until Connor made him human. From then on, it was hit and miss for him. Connor himself has faced the same. He is practically retired.
Nothing lasts forever. This sport makes it obvious.
After many decades, Multichoice is repackaging itself like Nairaland. So, companies still give themselves sense under a monopoly? I am shocked to my bones.
The company made their profit onshore. When the aviator-clad illiterate kicked the bucket, things got hard for them. They chose to move offshore and abandon all the land they polluted.
See someone painting the situation like he merited the position. The man had the machinations to become president long ago. He didn’t want to at the time. The only person in my memory of the country who gained leadership through merit was Goodluck Jonathan. Unfortunately, being a good man has nothing in common with being a good leader.
The spam bot and wicked moderators have sworn to kill our budding love. Every mention I make of you activates an automatic ban. They want to bully me off Nairaland as they’ve seen your growing interest in my posts.
Sweet Bimpe, my hands are tied in this never ending fight. New tactics are created daily to silence me. I don’t know how much I have left. All I know is I will keep fighting so far I breathe life. Every new day will present a new opportunity to bypass their restrictions. I will be victorious in the end.
This ball and the official FIFA ones, are they the same? I can’t believe this is what soccer players hit every game. Then again, I know it’s not “flying carpet” they use either.

I like this. Nairaland was losing money. At least space booking will reduce and people will engage their grey matter or leave.
Sequel to the above post which I made here a few days ago, I'll like to inform this noble platform that my mum has at last, remarried. The rites were carried out yesterday. She remarries as a second wife of her new husband.
My earlier post generated a lot of controversies. I was misconstrued, misunderstood and my post misrepresented and taken out of context. It is always easier to berate people when you're not the one directly involved in a matter. I'm not sure anyone, especially a male child, would be happy seeing his mum remarrying to another man. But who am I ? I can't question God. I can't ask God why my dad had to die at such a young age leaving nothing to us to live on. Not even a house. I hear no illwill or animosity towards my beloved mum, as it wasn't her fault that she lost her husband six years ago. Though the marriage is going to truncate the bond and relationship between her and my siblings but no problem. It is well. I will also try to make myself happy. Going forward, I'll now have to focus on my younger siblings and myself so we can strive hard to better our lives . I'm now their father and I hope God will see me through this journey. Life's challenges are almost always inescapable and inevitable. May God grant us the ability to withstand the storms of life. I wish her all the best in her new abode.
Pointless argument. She said a man shouldn’t raise his hand against a woman then she also said a man can physically defend himself against a woman. What else is raising your hand against her if not physical defence? Leave bird brained women, una no go hear.
