It's like this OP wants to die untimely death. What you did is worse than completely staying silent and doing nothing.
You should have stayed silent, if you wont be decisive. When women cheat, they do it with so much venom and force that is unimaginable and incomparable with that of a man. Your method may be applicable for a wife dealing with a cheating husband to pick his conscience. You have zero understanding. If she is already spiritual and cheating by booking a hotel to be "knacked", she is EMOTIONALLY AND FINANCIALLY INVESTED" in the cheating, a dangerous combo that tells me it is worse than you think.
She even has the upper hand now, afterall when the thing scatter, she will gladly paint a story of you denying her sex.
If you are not willing to end the marriage, ask for STD TEST and pregnancy test like someone suggested and a 3 months no sex window plus her booking joint marriage counselling theraphy session(s) WITH HER MONEY. She does not need to explain anything to you now. If she is not willing to follow these instructions, then she is not anywhere close to remorseful . Prepare your will.
@dbabs500, i just realized it was you that reported some misbehaviour from your wife some weeks back, and i told you clearly a romantic 3rd party is involved. If all of these stories are true, you are weak, pardon me. She has been doing it for a long time and sex is getting to her head. I heard of a woman cursing her husband during sex with a concubine, you think it is a joke when woman cheat. She has lost her head in the cheating , and i bet the man involve is using her as a sex slave, little wonder she is using her money to book hotel to be fuckkkked and you are acting like a sex starved indecisive man. This attitude of yours makes it worse. |

Procashtips: My last post to you since you can't be conversed with.
This is from the article
"Total fertility rate is the average number of children a woman would have by the end of her childbearing years if she bore children at the current age-specific fertility rates."
So if they pick a 15 years old from one of the top 10 states and a 15 years old from one of the bottom 10 states to a neutral ground for the sake of practical experiment
A man that is 100 potent and healthy is provided to sleep with these 2 ladies till they are 49 years old, the report says the one from the top 10 states is likely to have 8 children compared to that of the bottom 10 states.
Do not forget both women would be subjected to the same parameters.
I hope this is clear enough?
I won't respond to any further out of context comment from you. You still are not understanding. This is real data, and the reasons are not about potency bla bla To explain it to you in a basic way. A 15 year old girl child is way more likely to be married and open to start having babies in core north than her southern counterpart, She is most likely not in any school compared to her southern counterpart, she is most likely not having access to contraceptives, abortion pills e.t.c when compared to her southern counterpart. Those are plausble reasons not virility or potency of their men/women in the North. Don't forget to try to distinguish fertility from fecundity as well. |

Procashtips: What do you understand by the research?
Contraceptive or not, the research is talking about how fertile women in various regions are.
Is English now so difficult?
A close to barren woman doesn't need contraceptives as an excuse.
There are women who take in at every sexual encounter and there are some who needs 6 months of constant sex to stand a chance of taking in.
This research is talking about the above.
Comprehension is a problem in this part of the world. What has the gibberish you write proven? That they have 7 children in the North and 3 in the South means they are more fertile than the south  Tomfoolery at its best. I am simply asking you to use common sense. A research for you is to find the difference between fertility and fecundity. you obviously don't know the difference , the main reason for your flawed and weak assertion. |

Procashtips: Comprehension is a huge problem in Nigeria.
What concerns education with the natural capacity for women to birth children based on their demography?
I think the northerners eat more fertility-induced food or even live pro-fertility lifestyle than some of the southern states.
Come to think of it, they have the highest number of natural sex enhancing products than anywhere else in Nigeria. Seems the region specifically plant trees, fruits, vegetables solely for sex and fertility. The boldened is BS. If a man / girl or woman decide not to use contraceptive, even with low fertility, they can produce average of 15 offsprings within a girl/lady 15-49yrs fecundity cycle. Early marriage, illiteracy of the girl child, Lack of access to contraceptives/ family planning, Almajiri syndrome,polygamy, lack of common sense e.t.c are the reasons. It is not necessarily because of any phantom high fertility lifestyle. |

How can someone tell you they build that picture with 1 million dollar and you believe? Uyo stadium was built with close to 100 million dollars. Why money would have been misappropriated as i am sure of that because it happens every where in the world , but Nigeria and most developing natons are worse off.

The amount is not outrageous IMO. Nigerians imagine things on their head with out enough data to support it ,but lots of emotive force and then start to argue blindly. They would have spent at least 70% of what they claim to have spent. Do you want them to build National stadium with 1 million dollars?? |

no way a Nigerian earning 1.5 million monthly in Nigeria is a lower middle class. If you earn that much in a month, you are clearly in the upper middle class. However, if such individual has a terrible financial intelligence quotient, they will be worse than a lower middle class earner.
1,000 USD earner in the U.S is closer to been homeless and low income by all standard in the US and obviously needs support from friends, family or Government irrespective of their financial intelligence quotient. |
Politics › Re: Can The New APC Decampee Governors Deliver Their States To PBAT In 2027? by emiye(m): 5:37pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
casualobserver: The biggest mistake neophyte political analysts make is to think you win an election by winning states. You don’t need to win states, especially in a 3 horse race. All you need to do is to do damage to your opponent. You do damage to your opponent in 3 ways
1: you take votes away from him. I have said this many times every vote I take away from you and add to my tally actually reduces or increases the gap by 2 votes. You also win by damaging your opponent in their strongholds. 2: you prevent your opponent from getting 25% in a state where they got a marginal 25% in previous election 3: you get 25% in a state you were not able to before.
You don’t need to win a state. Gaining converts from “enemy” territory is not about winning the state. Remembered I think it was Ganduje who said all we asked Wike for in Rivers was 25%! I have said this before and only those who get the arithmetic of elections will understand, theoretically, in a 3 horse race, you can lose every state and still win overall. If one candidate is popular in the north and unpopular in the south and the other is popular in the south but unpopular in the North, the 3rd candidate can come second in all the states and win the election. This is someone that understands it. |
Politics › Re: Can The New APC Decampee Governors Deliver Their States To PBAT In 2027? by emiye(m): 5:28pm On Oct 19, 2025 |
Delivery is a relative word, it may imply preventing rigging, convert what could have been 10% vote to 26% votes Nigeria's presidential election in states is not winner takes it all(electoral college like in the US), understand it and prevent heartache. Even in your examples, check the best performing state of Tinubu in 2023 in SE, you will discover it was in states with APC governors-Imo and Ebonyi. He was not a president then.
In conclusion, Presidential election delivery is not until someone wins a state, it shows a lack of understanding of the political dynamics with Presidential election if you believe so. I am beginning to see why some people believe Obi won 2023, afterall he won Lagos. You fail to ask by how many votes. at least 25% in a state is one of the base layer of delivery in presidential election |

coleon: I suppose you are contradicting yourself in some of the comments you made here. How can you even be suggesting that Nigeria has had better outing in the world cup than Cameroon who has not only been in the world cup than Nigeria but has also been to the quarter final as far back as 1990 when Nigeria was yet to qualify for one. Also, you attested to losing to Argentina by a goal margin but forgetting that you have met Argentina 5 times and lost 5 times which indicates total dominance on a team just filling up the numbers and not competing, there's always a story or excuse to be given by every team beaten in a competition so forget about that penalty not given etc yarns. As far as I'm concerned Nigeria even if they get to the world cup is only just completing the numbers and not really competing Alfie anything as usual. The only African team I see competing is Morocco so all that noise about Nigeria showing up in world stage is only imaginary and not based on facts on ground. go to a dictionary and check for the word consistency, i think some people struggle to understand what it means. In a world cup representation, a country with a consistent performance is better than a "flash in the pan". Cameron has been to quarter final in 1990 world cup, since then, remind me of the last time they even made a second round of the world cup? To help you , Cameroon has not qualified for a second round in the last 35 years of world cup participation, Nigeria has been to 3 second round of the world cup within that period. To give you more statistics about Cameroon, they have 3 consecutive games group stage losses in many of the outings within that period, something Nigeria has never experienced in any of its outings. So who do you think is making the numbers between Cameroon and Nigeria. In 2014 world cup, they were ranked 32/32 effectively the worst team in the tourney, in 2010, they were ranked 31st out of 32 teams. Facts put with context and statistics exposes emotions. Argentina is a superior footballing nation than Nigeria with well known greater talents, stop overreaching. We may have defeated in the past at Olympics just like Brazil, they will take their flowers all the time as a better footballing nation than Nigeria. Argentina almost ranks in the same league as Brazil in football. If we have put up a "decent performance " against such a team and even qualify to the next stage despite that, i reckon with them. |

coleon: Whenever I read statements like Nigeria always shine at the global stage I always laugh out loud. Statistics on ground does not support this notion in any way, Nigeria has never gone beyond 2nd round in the world cup before meanwhile African countries like Cameroon, Senegal and Morocco have been to the quarter final and semi final respectively. So how can a country that has never gone past the second round and have lost to Argentina in every world cup it has ever played be boasting of rising to the occasion at the global stage? Nigeria is more consistent and usually have a formidable performance compared to other African countries, you can argue it, but it is true. The closest to Nigeria at the world cup with a relative consistent performance is Senegal. Morroco may do same at this next world cup. Nigeria has progressed past the first round 50% of the time it has featured , which is a good result, take note that usually half of the teams go home in the first round, for African sides the statistics is worse, more like 80%. On situations we didn't go pass first round, 2 of it has been a narrow miss. In 2018 world cup, we were looking good for 2nd round, until the last 8 minutes goal by Argentina, and a VAR penalty that should have been awarded but dismissed. In 2014, we stood on business against France in second round until they took out our main midfield maestro Onazie and loss to France. In 2010 world cup, a close one as well , a red card in 2nd game by Kaita cost us the game, and a 2-2 draw when we needed a win made us to drop out. If you are observant, Nigeria has not been to any world cup losing all 3 games. We have played Argentina, an obviously better side about 4 times and only lost by a goal margin. Even CAF will prefer Nigeria representing Africa in global tourney than a Togo or S/Africa or cape verde. There is a reason why Nigeria also has more Africa nations cup medal than any other African country; CONSISTENCY. Go figure. All the times we have not been to the world cup in the last 44 years, we lost on either Head to Head or Away goal. |

Family › Re: Married But Feeling Single: I’m Losing Myself In This Quiet Marriage by emiye(m): 4:39pm On Oct 14, 2025 |
breadtoaster: Thank you so much, everyone. I've read a lot, and I've learned a lot, to be honest, from this. My plan was never, per se, that I'm looking for a divorce, no. I do know that we all operate at the level of the knowledge we have, and if he knew better, same way, of course, if I knew better with regards to how to manage some things, then maybe those things wouldn't even be issues, right? So it shows that there's a knowledge lacking on my part and on his part, and sometimes when there's familiarity between two people, it's hard to see or hear what they say. And that's why, when you hear things externally, you can see perspective better, and I understand when, like, I've read through some people saying it's his nature — even though that pertinence part is really crappy — but that's by the way.
I just know that if my mental health wasn't getting affected, there wouldn't be an issue. Like, for me, whether it's his nature to be laid back or not, bills have to be paid, and the bills don't know that it's his nature. The bills don't know that we need to look for something else doing while he waits. Yes, he works, I'm not even going to deny that, but of course, he's working remotely from Nigeria. The work he was doing for a while, I think they gave him to be able to do it till December. So he's working, but that's like, say, NGN 500,000 a month which in dollars is little. So how does that pay a house rent of NGN 1,400,000 every month? Ideally, I would expect that common sense would come together — okay, how can we work at getting something to do together? Considering that I know single people who do three jobs, who do two jobs, who do this, but it's like, I'm alone to even brainstorm common ideas, he has not one to offer, maybe doesn't want to task his brain. He wouldn’t even ask, “Oh, how was rent this month? Have we paid? what's our finances like this month?
It kind of makes me remember how we were dating, because apparently, he didn’t used to even say anything then. When I travelled, during the 11-12 months while we were dating long distance, I think it was during that period I was like, “Ah, guy, even if it’s only 10,000 naira that you’re sending, just show your love or commitment na. Do I need to ask?” So going back, it makes me feel like I’ve asked for everything, and it can be very confusing. I know some of you here are quiet and all, but it’s really confusing from a woman’s point of view — is this really his nature or is it just lack of love or care or concern for the person you claim you’re dating? He mentioned today that he thought the money would be too small even if he gave me anything that's why he never sent anything.
So it’s really hard for me. These bills don’t know it, and it has to be the person with the eyes who is seeing it that does something, right? Clearly, I’m the one more in tune with it at the moment. Being with someone who won’t even ask, “Hope we paid this month’s rent?” or “Have we paid?” — you know, just care or concern, genuine, like, about it — but you are just there, you sleep, you wake up, even unbothered when the only job we are both using to eat was ending, no support to apply while I read for exams and all, And he told me he had no other plan because I asked what would have happened if that job wasn't renewed. He said he was praying for me that they would renew it. And you happen to be the head of the home as a man. Ah, it’s killing, it’s killing for me. As a woman, I’m not even going to lie. Maybe because things are tough and combining school and everything at once, and a whole lot, I’m burnt out. That’s the problem — highly burnt out. I’m tired, I wake up, I cry every day. Resentment is building.
And that’s why, like, I had to come out. And in all of this, it’s painful that he has energy, but those energies are for being petty. Like, oh, you can’t go for your work party, and then he’ll be passive-aggressive about it. Then he’ll say, “It’s the way you said it that made me angry.” Or, “You can’t talk to this person or that person; I should be enough.” You should be enough, but even the things we should do together, you can’t out your mind to work. Wont I reach out to people around for ideas, or ways to move forward. Even to put in one single application a week is a big deal for you because you are working back home— the same work that cannot obviously meet our needs.
I am doing full time work, full time school with 4 course work (assignments, group work etc), still comeback to cook because he wont cook and wait for me, I have done four job certification exams and read for it all in this process to get a better job, still come back to trade which is where am able to get small $50 or $100, we use to offset some other things, so we can be comfortable. He would say he would learn all this things, its jst a process and taking no step at learning even one extra thing at the moment.
We can even sell stuff from a charity store near us, post on facebook market place and all that, just extra income to meet one or two needs. I have mentioned, but he would rahter die or wait for hen he finally blows. so should we die before then?
Like, how do you not stand up to the responsibility of home in what ever capacity you can at the moment? How do you not see the reality of things and contribute in what ever way you can at the moment? How do you not see that we’re drowning, and you’re supposed to lead, yet you sleep and wake up and always tell me you feel I have it covered?. He says I dont see that he walks me to the train station in the morning when going to work. And to me it makes me so sad because I wonder how the barest minimum is a sign of the greatest love. Is it that he just doesn't know how to show love to a woman? I dont even understand. I am seriously confused most times
I also tried to do my driving test because, at a point, I didn’t even mind doing deliveries or something on weekends so we could survive better. I planned the route I knew best for the driving test. I had a friend who has a car which i begged to help , even if it was to practice two or three days before the test and use the car for the test because we dont have the money to do practise and do test together it would cost around (NGN 600,000 at least). He agreed, and I told my husband. He said no problem, that we should just ensure to pay the person something even if it is NGN 200,000. I had introduced him to this person when he came.
Then the day of the test came. I told him that morning, “Let’s go together,” because I knew who I was dealing with. But he said he couldn’t go because I told him too late just that morning to join and, that he already had plans. Okay. I went alone. When I came back, he didn’t even ask, “How did it go?” Nothing. Just sulking, keeping to himself. So I was like, is it that you don’t want me to take the test and help our lives? Or is the issue that I practiced with the guy yuo approved and I told you to join us and you refused? You’re the one who said I should proceed and pay him, so why are you sulking? Why are you giving bad energy because I went for my test?
The body language and all made me cancel the next practice and I never did the test just to keep the peace of the home. I realized there are things I wont now achieve because he is insecure, places I would never be because he is scared of who I would meet there. And it’s not like, at the back end, he’s my surest nigga, ride or die, he wont think of anything, just to sleep right after, he has refuse to make one single friend here in 8 months, he stayed away from people I even introduced him that they can mingle with and you know expose him things around since they have been here longer. so It’s not like, at the back end, he WOULD BE ENOUGH OR DO ENOUGH. It’s not like I hear often how much he loves me. I can’t count if he has he’s told me he loves me in the last four months. Even the wedding day na face we squeeze take marry.
When you don’t feel supported, you don’t feel loved, you just feel like you’re on your own. So when people say, “If you’re divorced, you’ll feel alone,” I ask, what’s the difference? Even as I am, I feel so fucking alone. Everything is dead, and he doesn’t mind. He’s just fine.
We go out somewhere — how do you even go to a lounge and sleep all through? Then I have to dance by myself. Obviously, I’m married; I can’t dance with anyone else, right? He won’t even like that — he’ll get angry. In fact, he’s just there to monitor me there, not to actually have fun with me. So yesit means he has energy, yes, but it’s all for being petty and the wrong reasons. not the rigt ones
How does that help the situation? How does that take us forward? That’s why sometimes I feel like I should quit my job and see what he’ll do. I feel like he’ll chicken out and say he’s going back to Nigeria or something. So is that what true leadership is?
Does it mean that because I said yes to this relationship, I have to live this way? No. I thought you were a spiritual brother — that we’d do well in prayers and everything. But you can’t even pray with me because, according to you, I don’t wake up very early enough. I would say but haba, cant we can pray at other times, like in the evening after work, after all we find time to eat then, but he wont, he would be busy praying alone. So is that enrgy towards building? So is it a case of wanting to be right over wanting to build. Even in the spirituality, I did not get the benefit. I don’t get it. Maybe he’s used to doing things alone, and that’s why he finds it hard to even pray with me.
Sometimes i feel once his paper is out, he would find an excuse and leave.... if he doesnt trust me and tells me he only trusts me 60%, why should I trust hm too
And even sex — like I said before — It was twice i two months, the first sex and one after d next month, then the need to sleep with me with condm, which was when I called the brother and his brother gave him some tips on what he should do or could do better, only then, it seemed like there was a little more energy in him wanting to research and improve things. As it is we dont even know how to allign the prick to enter from the back talkless of changing style. I dont even feel anything during penetrative sex, maybe its common to women though, I dont know. Even for himto reesearch how to enter from that back, If i havent found video and put in his front, its not intuitvie for him to try and research. Usually, a woman would say, “At least he knows how to Bleep even if he no send me in ay area,” you get? But there is nothing for me to hold onto, and it is very painful for me.
But now, it’s been like another three weeks since we last had sex, and I feel it’s having an impact again. The environment is tense. And if I’m not the one to notice that maybe it’s because we haven’t had sex that things are this way, he’ll never realize it. He just won’t.
So I don’t know. How do people handle relationships where you have to be the brain as a woman and still be respectful, still hold things together? I know people have done it, but it feels hard. Really hard. And I didn’t bargain for this. Maybe I saw the signs, but I didn’t think it would get this deep. I just thought, oh, he’s quiet. i can totally relate to your concern even though i am male and married. I believe i pictured it perfectly. i see and i hear your frustration. If, It can be difficult for a man with a laid back wife, it is 5 times difficult for a woman with a laid back husband. I will in due time think of practical ways to improve the situation and send it here. Considering you both are outside Nigeria, the strategies must be practical and tailored for the environment. |

I reckon that only 1 slot left for second round will be among Dr-Congo, Uganda and Nigeria. It will be a difficult task, that i am doubting we will be last game day lucky. We were lucky for so long and kept bottling it consistently . ( discounting previous games , draw against zimbabw at home, failing to defeat weak SA losing form away, not defeating Lesotho resoundingly that we have no excuse not doing). All the time i knew Nigeria not going to the world cup, we played way better, had high points and goal difference but lost on head to head away goal in the last 40 years. This is the worst world cup qualifying we have had in 4 - 5 decades. |

SmartyPants: Why do you people comment without putting in the slightest bit of thought into what you want to say? Can you compare the distance between Benin and Nigeria to the distance between Nigeria and South Africa? Why make such an uneducated comment?? Why i can not confirm if Benin football national team is in Nigeria, they won't have been coming from Benin as they played an away game in Rwanda same day as Nigeria played in SA. Not that i support the comment of the fellow who is dishing criticism . |

yinkeys: It’s the formation The setup isn’t effective Chelle to me isn’t a winner We can’t win AFCON with his 4-4-2 set up Set up is one of the problems, but minimal when compared with winning mentality and lack of cohesion. Peseiro as average a coach forced that cohesion in the team, when he brought an ultra defensive tactics in the 2023 Afcon tourney. We got in to the final with that defensive tactics, even though many criticised him. A coach must think of how to make his team play like a spartan, and have a cohesion; that brings to fore your setup concern: if 4-4-2 will prevent cohesion with crop of players available, then a switch may be necessary, but that does not mean we can not have cohesion with 4-4-2. It usually depends on the strength of players in the team and instruction provided by the coaching crew. There is no justification for us not having a single win in 2 legs against Zimbabwe, South africa and almost Lesotho. Once Instructions are clear and a team cohesion is achieved even with average players, winning mentality are forged and results are inevitable. Stephen Keshi had one of worst individual talents IMO to win a nations cup and 2nd round at the world cup, and he even went with lots of homebased players that influenced games. Those guys have a poor winning mentality. They almost conceded a 2nd goal yesterday at 2-1. We need to play to our strength, not possessive with no result style of play. |

Umunede: No. If we best them 1 0, we will be tied on goal difference (+4) goals for(12) and goal against( . But we will edge them on head to head. we cant edge them on head to head, they have scored 12 goals and conceded 7, while we have scored 10 and conceded 7. if we beat Benin 1-0, we now have 11 goals and conceded 7, , but they still have 12 goals and conceded 8. They scored more goals than we did. We need to edge Benin by a 2 goal margin to have any chance of qualification. We defeated 3-0 some months back in African cup of nation qualification, but whether we can replicate same feat is a serious doubt for me as this super eagles lack the mental fortitude to deliver when it matters most. By the way, if we win in 3 days from now, it will still the worst world cup qualification performance we have had in at least 40 years. |

Nazgul: Just 2. If we defeat them 2-0, we'll both be on +5 goals. So it would come down to head to head. Which would favour us cos we lost 2-1 to them in their home and defeated them 2-0 in our home. they can not be on +5 if they concede two unreplied goals, they become +3.. it is if we win with 1 goal difference, that we get same point, and goal difference, but they win on number of goals scored to take 1st or 2nd point. The goal conceded at the 83rd minute may come back to ask questions |

lexy2014: time manager, is this below the confirmation by the experts of the stability and the sign that GDP to debt ratio will reduce?
timemanager
emiye, is this how tinubu is servicing debt? so you think Nigeria taking more loan equals Nigeria not servicing her debt..... ?  Your error of reasoning is worrisome. Nigeria factored taking loans in the budget for the year, likewise servicing its debt. Nigeria was servicing debt with about 97% of its revenue at some point in 2023, the last i heard in 2025, it is now 50%. |
