Nothing changed.

It's not the duty of any businessman to takeover the duty of the law makers and the presidency.

Kindly consult a copy of constitution of Nigeria. I can be of help by providing you with outline.

Fantastic response!

GU Okeke defeated Dangote to win the right to assemble Shackman trucks in Nigeria. After many years he now managed to secure Sinotruck

All for the good of Nigeria.
For those who do not know Sino trucks are Chinese. With a building capacity of 10,000 trucks per year, we hope the prices can be made affordable so that used trucks can be faded out over time.

I am actually more about the end result of taking such actions as marrying without waiting for the due time.

Most times what We seek to have badly is not ours to get perhaps at that said time, using emotional implays as a point will not stand as excuse when the pendulum for judgement strikes.

Make the Lawyer and him new found love wait for at least 1 year after the divorce process.

This is a staged story nonetheless.

Now you gave me a more relaxing response.
Thank you very much and do enjoy the rest of your Sunday evening.

ablejesus26:
Why are you having a hard time understanding that when rules apply emotional issues bcomes an excuse.

Just imagine a supposed divorce therapist marrying the client 1 month after thrw divorce process. Things are not done that way.

I have not had one single difficulty understanding the word “ethics” in the matter discussed. You have consistently hurriedly not looked into my question regarding the emotional feelings of the woman’s ex and her lawyer. You have jumped all my questions.

If the ex and the lawyer concealed it, what could have happened? Having found love between themselves, how will the word “ethics” prevent them from taking their new relationship to whatever level they want? How can the deed be reversed by the now former wife, having possibly discovered her error?

What a shame on the Nigerian military, that they are indicted in this manner by the military of a neighboring and smaller country.

Everyday, we wake up to one or more news of how the high and mighty benefit from terrorists and kidnappers. We keep wondering if it is rocket science to wipe away these vampires armed with guns.

Hmm.

You will not understand because you are still a child.
When you become a successful Father, you will love to See you children get married, and you become a grandparent.

If no be say Tinubu don spoil everything, I suppose to send you two bottles of Don Perignon for this reply.
Have a great Sunday!

ablejesus26:
You got it all wrong.
I am not saying ther lawyer can't marry the client but there's a time frame to do so.
Work rules and ethics nor be wishy-washy emotional sensationalism.

Unless the lawyer intends to loose his license to practice.

Let me ask:
Without publicizing it, who would have found out? How would we have known when the ex wife and the lawyer entered into the relationship?

Think about emotional issues here. Once in love, there’s no stopping!

Crippled Achebe spent his entire evil life envying Wole Soyinka

A cripple calling a well celebrated person a cripple.

It can only take sheer determination and political will of NASS members of the North Central and entire South to stop this wickedness by their counterparts from the NE and NW. They seem to enjoy the continuous destruction of human lives and properties by herdsmen.

Adamu Aliero was moving for cows to be recognized as citizens of the Nigeria. For me, I thought that simply was cow talk from the Senator.

This evil act must be brought to an end. Those herdsmen, who have clothed with garments of ISWAP and Boko Haram, must be stopped.

GBTYO:
So ritualists exist as a societal check.


You Ibo people are evil to the bone.

Abi.

Are you pretending that you do not know that ritualists exist. Haba.

What would you say about your people who are well know for killing and decapitating fellow humans for ritual or quick money? Are you people not evil in the blood and bone?

Who is achebe? a goat or a pig
Naming the road after cow is better than naming it after a worthle** man like achebe

Chinua Achebe was a Nigerian novelist who is best known for his novel "Things Fall Apart," which is a modern African masterpiece and was published in 1958 ¹ ² ³ ⁴ ⁵. His other works include the following novels ¹ ² ³ ⁵:


- "No Longer at Ease" (1960)
- "Arrow of God" (1964)
- "A Man of the People" (1966)
- "Anthills of the Savannah" (1987)
- "Home and Exile" (2000)
And Things fall Apart.


Born in 1930 in Ogidi, Colonial Nigeria, Achebe's childhood was influenced by both Igbo traditional culture and postcolonial Christianity. He excelled in school and attended what is now the University of Ibadan, where he became fiercely critical of how Western literature depicted Africa. Moving to Lagos after graduation, he worked for the Nigerian Broadcasting Service (NBS) and garnered international attention for his 1958 novel Things Fall Apart. In less than 10 years he would publish four further novels through the publisher Heinemann, with whom he began the Heinemann African Writers Series and galvanized the careers of African writers, such as Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o and Flora Nwapa.
Achebe sought to escape the colonial perspective that framed African literature at the time, and drew from the traditions of the Igbo people, Christian influences, and the clash of Western and African values to create a uniquely African voice. He wrote in and defended the use of English, describing it as a means to reach a broad audience, particularly readers of colonial nations. In 1975 he gave a controversial lecture, "An Image of Africa: Racism in Conrad's Heart of Darkness", which was a landmark in postcolonial discourse. Published in The Massachusetts Review, it featured criticism of Albert Schweitzer and Joseph Conrad, whom Achebe described as "a thoroughgoing racist." When the region of Biafra broke away from Nigeria in 1967, Achebe supported Biafran independence and acted as ambassador for the people of the movement. The subsequent Nigerian Civil War ravaged the populace, and he appealed to the people of Europe and the Americas for aid. When the Nigerian government retook the region in 1970, he involved himself in political parties but soon became disillusioned by his frustration over the continuous corruption and elitism he witnessed. He lived in the United States for several years in the 1970s, and returned to the US in 1990 after a car crash left him partially paralyzed. He stayed in the US in a nineteen-year tenure at Bard College as a professor of languages and literature.
Winning the 2007 Man Booker International Prize, from 2009 until his death he was Professor of African Studies at Brown University. Achebe's work has been extensively analyzed and a vast body of scholarly work discussing it has arisen. In addition to his seminal novels, Achebe's oeuvre includes numerous short stories, poetry, essays and children's books. A titled Igbo chief himself, his style relies heavily on the Igbo oral tradition, and combines straightforward narration with representations of folk stories, proverbs, and oratory. Among the many themes his works cover are culture and colonialism, masculinity and femininity, politics, and history. His legacy is celebrated annually at the Chinua Achebe Literary Festival.

Chinua Achebe was and baptised Albert Chinụalụmọgụ Achebe. His father, Isaiah Okafo Achebe, was a teacher and evangelist, and his mother, Janet Anaenechi Iloegbunam, was the daughter of a blacksmith from Awka, a leader among church women, and a vegetable farmer.His birthplace was Saint Simon's Church, Nneobi, which was near the Igbo village of Ogidi; the area was part of the British colony of Nigeria at the time. Isaiah was the nephew of Udoh Osinyi, a leader in Ogidi with a "reputation for tolerance"; orphaned as a young man, Isaiah was an early Ogidi convert to Christianity. Both Isaiah and Janet stood at a crossroads of traditional culture and Christian influence, which made a significant impact on the children, especially Chinua. His parents were converts to the Protestant Church Mission Society (CMS) in Nigeria. As such, Isaiah stopped practising Odinani, the religious practices of his ancestors, but continued to respect its traditions. The Achebe family had five other surviving children, named in a fusion of traditional words relating to their new religion: Frank Okwuofu, John Chukwuemeka Ifeanyichukwu, Zinobia Uzoma, Augustine Ndubisi, and Grace Nwanneka. After the youngest daughter was born, the family moved to Isaiah Achebe's ancestral town of Ogidi, in what is now the state of Anambra state.

Now, who are your parents? Put on their profile, if you can. Who are you? Achebe died at the age of 83, accomplished. You are a non starter, with no certainty that you can be better than either a goat or a pig, how much more a cow.

If any of those seamen on the submarine miss their step, no be inside sea direct be that?
Men and hard work to take care of their families and nations.

LEAVE LAGOS ALONE!

Lagos IS YORUBALAND whether you Igbos like it or not.

Curb your COVETOUSNESS, and face your region.

#RestructureNigeria

And your people who own properties all over the world should abandon the properties and face their own region?

Have you completed your SSS3 exams?

Racoon:
Hehehe! Nice one! After all Tinubu and all his cohorts in the ACN and APC were staunch advocates of restructuring to regionalism back then. This is one of the reason the refused to attend the 2014 confab, but his first priority was to bastardized the economy then change national anthem.So it would seem it is a generational thing as the oldies yearn for the glorious days of their childhood, while we who were shaped in the military mould, hold on to the things the military gave to us.

If a return to old anthem can be done, then a return to regional governments or better political restructuring can be effected by a democratic government. It is time for democratic Nigeria to shape Nigeria, instead of just living the system the military regimes put in place to usher a return to democracy.

Tinubu got balls. Let him move beyond this mental rejiging of Nigerians and see through with the necessary changes to national life.ACN bloc campaigned all their life about restructuring, it will be the greatest disservice if Tinubu won't complete that restructuring with all the power it seems he wields. 3 more years to go, but now the time beckons.

The gradual deconstruction of this contraption of an entity is gradually unfolding. Guess Shettima that said "restructuring my foot" will not be angry now? Meanwhile, thought the NASS and the Tinubu led presidency all vehemently denied that there is no plan to return to regional government?

Step towards disintegration I think!

ablejesus26:
Bro calm watin you nor sabi pass you.

You can't get married to your client so soon.
Poor attention seeking script.

Wetin you no sabi, in the face of deep emotions? You can get married or date, when the lawyer probably has been out there for years praying and begging for a husband? Now she found one, abandoned by a woman who felt that the man had become worthless to her?
You think “I love you”, said from the depth of the heart is akin to joking?
Bros na you this matter pass. You don marry, by the way?
I dey laugh you here.

DeepsightX:
True but surely, a client must feel very "some how" when her lawyer who is her confidante and agent does that within two weeks. It of course infers that the lawyer was already "sleeping with the enemy."

And some ethical issues can be inferred with that.

It certainly is a difficult and sensitive situation! If your lawyer married your ex after your divorce, it may raise ethical concerns and potential conflicts of interest.

One may ask the lady why she was hasty to divorce the man, not considering the possibility of a regret at the shortest time? She probably intended to review her divorce, only to discover that it was late.

Now we look at ethics, sentiments and morality. Who’s to blame? The man? The lawyer? Or the wife? For me it was the wife who probably against all decent advice chose to proceed with the divorce. She probably ended the relationship because of financial issues. Now probably finding the man with a better life, she cried blue murder…that’s an assumption anyway.

However she can seek legal advice from another lawyer.

They can check for ethical violations. She can request to the man to reconsider. If these work, then she’s lucky, otherwise otilo…as they say.

Mindlog:
Another poor attempt at "tales by moonlight"!

Another social media tale of what never happened!

What is the Nigeria Bar Association's ethical provision regarding that?

It is like a licensed marriage therapist who handled the marriage counselling of a married couple and they went on to get a divorce, 2 weeks later, the therapist got married to one of them! , The therapist is sure losing the practicing license as one can only date/marry a former client after 2 to 5 years of cessation of therapy session.

Whether na lawyer, whether na therapist, the moment you break up your relationship, what your ex does with his/her love emotions, e no concern you again.

So horrible.

Sometimes one wants to agree with Shariah law. The vampire needs to have the same treatment.

Be careful, EFCC gets raw evidences now. Bobrisky’s case was a getaway for them. Cubana chief priest showed that evidence of spraying in videos are useless. The law is the law. You can hand cash over. You can transfer. You can cut paper to sizes. There are several ways to enjoy your parties without braking the law.

Does she have brothers? Without delay, they should respond in kind to the beast.

One lady, her husband used to beat her to pulp and there was no one to save her. They lived in a face me I face you. One day, the lady’s junior brother arrived at 7am to visit them. At that time the husband was already beating the lady. Her brother knocked on the door, but the husband refused to open and continued the beating. The brother quickly ran out and bought a bottle of beer. He drank it, held the empty bottle and waited in front of the door. As soon as the husband was done with the beating, he opened the door to walk out. That’s how the brother landed the empty bottle of his head. See blood everywhere. From that day, the man never lifted his hands against his wife. The brother threatened him that if he ever tried it again, im own don finish. He also threatened the husband against chasing the wife away. They lived happily ever after with the brain resetting given to the husband by the brother.

That was harsh na

The person wearing that boxer is actually an Omowe as we speak and na big man now

Even see the waist inside the boxers. Na the pink one we dey talk so o.
That guy needs regular fufu, pounded yam and better soup.
No vex. No be me talk am oooo!

Mariangeles:
Separate bedrooms in marriage is nonsense!
Couples who have separate bedrooms will hardly be able to resolve issues in their marriage (quickly).
Whoever wants a separate bedroom in marriage is selfish and simply not ready for marriage.

The person already included divorce when she signed on the wedding day.
She has things to hide that she does not want her husband to find out.
She may be gay and wants privacy with her gay partner.
Menstrual cramps generally cease after childbirth, so the excuse is not valid.
Her love or commitment is incomplete.
She will neither be loyal nor obidient.

BabaHenry:
Wetin do that boxers ?

E resemble bricklayer boxers!

They are both from the east, so it's a derby
Just like Arsenal vs Chelsea is a London derby

No dey fall hand.
Arsenal is from where and Chelsea is from where? What’s a derby called in football bro?

raskymonojendor:
So the National Assembly should not discuss about cattles and open grazing? If they discuss about it, then the Fulanis will keep pushing their cows everywhere. A country without laws?

The fellow quoted, is it that he’s ignorant or he’s always deliberately mischievous?

FreeStuffsNG:
Only inferiority complex and low self esteem could make anyone think that discussing about cow is debasing or suddenly makes you have low intelligence quotient. Few weeks ago, there was an outbreak of bedbugs in France and discussion of bedbugs became a national debate , featured on CNN and even carried to US! Discussing bedbugs at a national level is what again? Many of you have not stepped out of Nigeria and Africa yet you debase your own race. Smh


Cow has been a subject of debate in Europe and even India, discussing it is not special. Where I come from in Nigeria, it's better to jaw jaw than to war war. You can come online to form yet if beef scarcity sets in, you will complain of hunger.

My position is that making laws on cow business should go to the states houses of assembly because they are in a better place to monitor the business.

Adamu Aliero tried to make a big issue out of it. The practice is ranching worldwide. How a Senator in this age brought his warped logic, made him disgrace himself. A few out of their greed make a big issue of ranching. Cows are discussed worldwide as it brings plenty of wealth, but roaming with cows from city to city and street to street, must not be discussed, as it is archaic and trouble fetching. Without roaming, security can be better handled too, as herdsmen stand accused of perpetrating kidnaps. Any top official from the north who argues in favour of roaming, could be a kidnapping suspect.

Go around the country and take a look at ranches. Take a look at herdsmen roaming around with their cows. The difference is clear in that cows in ranches are cleaner, healthier and fatter. The owners make more money. For those who prefer to migrate, just like Adamu Aliero, there is a sinister plan. Herdsmen only need to purchase feed for the cows, get Vet Doctors to check them get the best from their businesses.

Open grazing is clearly outdated and it’s no longer working in our already deeply polarized country.

Where is the derby?
Rangers are in Enugu. Eyimba are Aba based. Both are from different states.

Anyway, I hope Rangers wins. I have always supported Enugu rangers football club.

Thank God.

How on earth did the judge grant the lady a house and 200,000 cedis, with the proven case of serial adultery leading to children outside the marriage?

fuellessgen:
It's truly nauseating.

It’s so painful that governments in the last 15 years have allowed this menace to fester. One wonders why some people benefit, seeing others ruthlessly killed by these vicious people.
