Children raised in the two parent household have better prospects than those raised in single parent homes. That's the global result. So all these baby-mama comes across as irresponsibilty. It's hard to see a responsible man intentionally state he wants to have a baby-mama arrangement.

Which lane are you actually Gerrard?
You always support women being financially independent and mostly don't need men again nowadays since their is intimacy gadget and they can finance their own lifestyle. You also support not shamming women for sexual liberation because it is their body and they can use it how they feel without men breeding down on them.
Then, somehow you are worried the same men shouldn't go the babymama way because kids raised under this condition are mostly social misfit and such men are dead-beat dads.
Let me tell you a truth - The moment we accept women sexual liberation aka women can be shameless without been judged, the "dead-beat dad" statement too goes out of the window.
There are no more dead beat dads because you can't use a metric for a man while exonerating the woman.
There can't be a jailer, if there are no prisoners.
The same law that apply to a masquerade apply to a person using hijab because they are both covered.
Nature will always find it's balance irrespective of human's sentiment or biasness.
Lastly, no reasonable person invests where their interest is not protected. The men of olden days were not just responsible (this is debated anyway), ready to die for their women and fight for the village to protect their women and kids. They did that out of the personal conviction that the women are their properties. It is the same way you will fight to the end the land you buy and someone wants to take it away from you.
But when you have properties that can be taken away from you easily without you saying love-vendor, that property becomes a risky investment to do.
If investing my sweat on a lady/relationship, sometimes send her to school, put her on monthly payment, take her abroad etc and she can just wake up to say she is not doing again or give me a bastard or just cheating on me without any repercussion, rather am been laughed at to move on, then it is only natural that survival instinct will kick-off relationship-wise. It will never be about what the kids will turn out to be or whatnot, my survival, sweat, investment is on the line and nothing else people say or gaslighting or emotional blackmailing will do.

And the debt burden continues to balloon whilst crude oil price is falling casting serious doubt on the ability of the assets to repay these humongous debt.

Today’s pump is one of the strategies to be deployed by the top management to counter the negative audit opinion and sentiments about the ability of the entity to continue to exist as a going concern.

Anyway, my exit strategy remains intact and very solid.

To newbies on this forum, don’t fall for the merchants of evil trying so hard on this platform to promote this moribund stock if you’re not ready to lose your shirt.

Forget anything about investing your hard earned funds in this disguised “CIBEX”.

It’s the dog that wants to get lost that ignores the whistle of its owner.

The comments here and on Twitter say a lot about the founder's persona and business practices. Besides, it is not every business model that works abroad would work in Nigeria. Basic trading and manufacturing are the key businesses to propel Nigerians' economic growth. People need to earn comfortably and consistently before they can afford alternative entertainment. And one wonders why the Indians, Chinese and Lebanese thrive. Why won't they when they solve basic problems? The other day, some cl0wns on Twitter mocked Dangote for building a refinery, whereas his American counterparts are releasing tech services and updates. Many ignor.ant people with access to the Internet. Na Obasanjo caused all this thing.

Acidosis:
Any subscription-based pay-TV programme that concentrates fully on the Nigerian market will fail. There's no other way. You either go the way of YouTube and Spotify by bombarding people with ads to make up for their low purchasing power and poverty, or pack up. Another way is to make your money by stealing user data, then sell to willing partners abroad. But if your aim is to convince Nigerians to pay for streams, apps, or anything they can easily get a counterfeit from China or a fraudulently-hacked alternative that allow multiple users (e.g., Truecaller Pro, Canvas, Capcut, Netflix, Apple Music etc.), you have already failed before you even begin. They will never pay because they can't afford it.

Unfortunately, we don't even see our inability to afford basic things like that as a problem because of our strong affinity for failed governance. In fact, Nigerians consider their low purchasing power and inability to afford the very basic things of life as smartness because there is always that fake engineer and hacker willing to bypass the due process as well as a professional politician willing to convince them to exercise the same level of patience their great grandparents had.

Ordinary Grammarly Pro subscription, many can't afford. Microsoft Office installation, they still can't afford, instead we run to computer village, the home of fake counterfeit software, looking for a fake uncertified engineer to install a fake software or a fake movie site that sells their data to American and Chinese companies for crumbs.

Generally, developed countries would have to increase birth rates or revamp the pension system. Something has to give in. The UAE model is good for even immigrants (after all most immigrants are economic in nature), but bad for the pension system in the UK. Another option is to increase taxes, but many wealthier European countries have high taxes and low birth rates. The UAE/Qatari/Singapore model fits smaller and wealthier nations. The alternative for more populated countries would be to increase the birth rate or rework the pension system.

Increase birth rate? When jobs are drying up? What then are the people going to do?
The years ahead will need lesser and lesser people to run the economy/society.
It takes more than 40 people to clear a 10 acres farm 50 years ago, it only requires 1 tractor man to do the job today and will require a robot or a man with better technological equipment less than 5 hours to do that job in the next 50 years.
So I don't believe we need more humans. Actually we need lesser

Oga Loco, how do you pick your stocks for trading?
Is it base on the fundamentals of the companies or you just buy and "ask God for mercy?" 😁😁

Tvegas:
Locotrader should not be held responsible for anyone's trading decision. Recommendations should be backed up with further research and personal conviction to buy.

That aside,Loco is one marketer worth studying. His work rate on his stocks can't be matched by anyone here. You will hear so much about the stock till you start trading the stock in your dreams .

Omo to dey follow you na like person wey hang behind trailer dey run for en back.

Becoming the best version of yourself
means saying goodbye

-to fake friends,
-to empty talks,
-to comfort zones,
-to excuses that held you back.

It’s losing people who only knew the old you.
It’s walking alone while others stay behind.

But that loneliness?
It’s the price of growth.

And every goodbye clears space
for the man you’re meant to become.

True talk 'person wey sabi' until you borrow such amount to do business then you may have first hand experience and talk, ' every aboki with him kettle'. As we can't do the business, that is why we are looking for such amount to run so....

Exactly. Everyone can't do biz and those who feel traveling out is the best option for them should explore it.

Gerrard59:
It depends on where you are from or if you are willing to move to where those items are and where you want to see yourself in, say, twenty years time. So, for instance, if you want to be a manufacturer in the long term, certainly 20m is a small capital. So to grow that capital, you have to engage in trading, preferably the products you intend to manufacture or add value to.

But please note: building a successful business in any part of the world takes time, grit and determination. Business is not something you enter today and expect rewards tomorrow. The former head of Accenture Nigeria stated it takes between 3 - 5 years to see a return on investment from a growing business.

Nothing good comes easy and sharp sharp. It takes time to compound and compound.

Nigerians just like sharp sharp that is why we are not really in the forefront business-wise in the world.
Most engage in biz out of survival and not passion or flair or the joy to build, employ and grow.
Any one who ask what can they do with 20m in nigeria for biz actually have no business doing one in the first place honestly.

Even though I've conversed with men whose wives weaponised sex, I never realised it was that serious or women INTENTIONALLY do it until I read through their responses to Veekee James about allowing the man just to put the head inside. The outrage was surprising. Like, they believe it's a favour to the man and can decide to put a time on it. I believe if the man does his part as a husband and father, the least he deserves is constant access when he dire needs it. But with wetin I don read (Nairaland, Twitter and Facebook), I don't envy married men o when it comes to sex.

Most times, it is the good, faithful and religious husbands that surfers this.
For sex weaponizing to work, the woman will make sur the husband is a One-man-woman type. Since they are sure he has no option, then they gradually complain and weaponize it.
If you take the bait, it will only get worse.
They can't try that with a womanizer because they are putting their home, source of income and future at risk.
A good sex outside will keep the man out for days which may roll into weeks and months or permanently.
Funny enough, it is not even that most of these ladies don't like sex because some are been banged recklessly at work or start sleeping around like rabbits if the man dies.
My wife tries that with me once and i treated her fvck up well that up till date, she adjusted.
I hate rubbish. You are a stay at home mum.... you have a house cleaner to do the house chores, you only cook breakfast and dinner after which you are always on your fone throughout the day on tiktok or twitter yet if i approach, you will be giving attitude and saying tired and not in the mood for days or week.
What are you doing? not working that most hide under, what i give you a month is more than what many lecturers are taking or even govt doctors, so what exactly am i getting? Told her she is becoming too expensive for my liken.
I only need to paid a house maid 70k per month and she will do virtually all the jobs at home ...wash my clothes, take care of the kids, take them to school, wash the toilets and mop the floors most of what she is not doing yet forming attitude.
She started seeing changes in me and snooping around my fone, then she confronted me that it seems am flirting with ladies and i just told her straight have lost interest in her....Omoh since that time she sit up...Nonsense

Gerrard59:
So modern day and educated women have won it, bigly!

Modern day women actually win it a lot and are the prize, at least in the developed world, where the economy provides stable and good jobs. Women have maintained their hypergamy, have economic opportunities and with the hypergamy still insist on getting men higher than they are

These set of women are just a fraction of total women and most of them have priced themselves out of any reasonable marriage even if they wish, though many in this category don't mind staying single.

While working and as colleagues, they travel a lot. My female colleagues don go South Korea like twice within six months. Fine, mine would largely be because I am a new immigrant and passport issues, but our working-class women in the UK don visit Morocco and Central Europe steadily. Those in Canada and the US don tour South America and Mexico tire. I no dey see men for all this waka. I follow on IG who has toured almost everywhere in Europe and now seeks a "finance or tech bro".

They can afford to spend their last kobo, live a reckless life or buy expensive things and live above their incomes because deep deep deep down, they know that the worst case scenario, an unfortunate man will have to put them in his house and sweat to feed and impress them for some few minutes of sex if they lose their job or source of income....Man/relationship/Marriage/Relationship is always the fall back plan.

The ones I job hunted with here are touring Europe and the US steadily. Women dey enjoy life steadily, and I have realised that they can do it all by themselves without needing men's presence. But men no fit enjoy themselves without bringing women into the mix.

I wrote about something similar before that i worked with a lady earning lesser than me but traveling to egypt and morrocco for vacation. She can because she knows she has safety net but i have to be sure i am properly covered before doing that. I have US and canada long time visa but have been dragging legs going on vacation due to many bills oat hand.

To worsen it, the small cheating exploration wey men go do inside marriage, they are against it even after asking their husbands "if sex is food?" Like, they don't mind controlling the sexual intercourse with a timetable. He goes outside, problem. Okay, give it to him inside marriage, mbanu. Some beg and beg (shey we saw a thread on the front page?)

It is not uncommon in marriages for women to weaponize sex. I have a friend whose wife weaponizes it to him to the extent he always beg just to have it. He regularly complain about it and swore the max sex he gets in a years is 4...i mean max 4 times a year and it is always very very boring with the woman regularly complaining during the sex.......Early last year they separated when he caught is wife flirting with a mechanic, upon further digging, he got to know the woman is already banging the man sef.
After separation, the woman started sleeping around like a rabbit. This is a woman who regularly weaponize sex for her husband feeding and taking care of her...... she is driving car bought by the hubby, the man built a 4 bedroom bungalow and taking care of them in his capacity...mother of 2.
Now she looks ugly, lean and washed-up just after 18 months of divorce. I guess those sleeping with her are not giving her the money like her hubby, probably sickness from sleeping with different men..who knows.

I have my reservations with everyone.

Even China and Turkey still sells weapons to Ukraine till this day.

Russia is basically fighting everyone.

Hmmmmmmmmm
If China is doing that, then they are not wise and not doing themselves any good.
So far so good, seems iran and NK are the most reliable partners to Russia.

⚡Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service claims Serbian arms firms are secretly supplying Ukraine despite Belgrade’s neutrality.

Fake end-user certificates and third-country intermediaries—mainly NATO states like Czechia, Poland, Bulgaria—are used.

Some African countries are also involved.

Deliveries include hundreds of thousands of shells and a million rounds of ammo.

Major Serbian firms involved: Yugoimport SDPR, Krusik, Prvi Partizan, and others.

This is not good.
This is backstabbing.
I have my reservation with Hungary, Slovak and Serbia for some time now

Many people are already showing symptoms of madness including myself, is just that we have not gone to the street.

That is why anger management is important. Loving others like yourself is important. being kind to yourself is important. Not taking things too serious is important. Being close to God is good. Having time to relax and unwind is good.

Anyone can become mad. Just live a good decent life. Don't hold on to grudges, and enjoy life.

Mad oooo

Genuine question:

In the scenario, a financially stable man dates a financially stable lady who says no to sex before marriage, aka celibacy or is a virgin, what is the benefit the man gets in such an arrangement? If a woman's body is the basis for billing her man, what becomes the basis if she does not "give out" her body?

I have always known that sex is not free. Every man pays for it. However, in the case where there is no sex, what does the man get out of it?

Thank you.

Nothing
The man gets nothing...that is why such a man is called a fuul

Hezzyluv:
Lol...

She fit swear with amadioha or ogun that she never knew the guy ran mad before until lately?

Madam, tell us the truth. Your husband has no money as he used to. Hence, your excuse for wanting to quit.

If the guy has money, even if he's in chains as a result of madness, she will say, I married my husband because I love him.

A woman will date a monkey with money at hand dresses in agbada and tinubu cap

My bro every Naija babe na hookup babe..Person girlfriend expects her boyfriend to cater for her bills all the time and she no even get work..My drives a Bentley and he spoils his babe like mad..He trok his babe for vacation no be 4timed abroad but bro this babe left him for person with mustang😂😂..

Mad oooooooo
Monkey branching from a Bentley owner to a Mustang owner.
To most women, men are like companies or jobs. They switch at will if the condition of service is not favourable again or a better company with a better deal shows up.
The babe you wrote about is not your everyday woman, she is in that click and switches jobs within that group.
Look at it this way - a man from a poor background will appreciate getting a 200k job per month and be loyal to his employer. It will be hard for him to leave such job for same salary with no conviction of being a permanet staff but such man will do thanksgiving in church if he gets a Mobil job paying him 1.5m with many benefits and leave the former job.
The lady above is the type working with Oando and later gets better deal with Total or Shell. These are the kind of jobs she is regularly getting in her circle

Gerrard59:
To be fair to goran3310, he is kinda right about women not respecting men who can provide because these days, they (women) earn equally if not more than some men. Then we have sex to.ys, so the dire need for a man in 2025 is not as it was in say 2000. These days and going forward, a strong-willed woman can choose not to get married and have a child of her own. Lola Oj and Ini Edo are good examples. Such women will even look down on an oil worker.

However, the issue I have with goran3310's stance is that what then becomes the use of a woman's money to a man's life if the man does not eat out of it? What does the man benefit in a scenario where he provides everything, meanwhile the woman earns very well either from her job or business? What exactly would the woman use this money for if the man is to be the all-in-all provider? What does the man get out of such a relationship?

@ your 1st paragraph ...............The women who earn as equal as ment are not even up to 10%. Even the men who have the strenght and time in the world, how many ar earning well? maybe 2 out of 10, so only 2 out of 10 women would be earning something reasonable enough to stay alone.
intimacy gadgets are good but there is more to man/woman relationshio than sex and money...what about the emotional and psychological balance it brings? money nor intimacy gadgets can do that. intimacy gadgets and money won't call you every morning to greet you and ask what is your plan for the day? happy new week babe, happy new month etc to share your daily struggles, happiness, success with.
Without the things i wrote above, even with your money, you will feel lonely, bored and sad and who even told you these women you wrote above are not sleeping around?
You will be shocked to know what is going on in their circle - lekki/banana island cacaus know each others stories.... the married men they are following, the young men they try to tame down who eats their money and run away etc Even the intimacy gadget doesn't bring the full satisfaction a man banging you, smooching, kiss etc

goran3310:
Women these days don't respect men anyway. Not even the ones who pay for everything. How much less do they respect men they split costs with, and especially those they would have to pay for.
On other topics, many here whine about women asking them for money. Then they entertain the thought of women paying for their outings. Or anything else for that matter.
I really can't imagine a man who is worth even a little more than spit in the dust feeling comfortable while a woman pays for anything for him.
Poverty truly has no dignity.
Poverty and dignity are inversely proportional. They never go together.

But what can the average modern woman offer a man after she has slept with more than 10 men, aborted alot, over used body if she is not going to be supporting the man financially? What kind of shitty deal is that for a man?
I will rather become a woman in that case so as to eat my cake and have it. Sleep around, live a reckless life and still have a man marry my uselesssss body and finance it till I die

Dzzzz:
They’re just lazy to work…

Even the ones working are mostly living above their income and hoping to use a man to balance up or hookup.
You will think a lady earning high salary like 1m a above a month should be okay, faithful to her bf and have savings...
Nahhhh!!!!!
Most are stark broke living expensive life - foreign vacations, iphone 15 etc
The ones earning less quickly use hookup or man to augement their income.
I know of a lady that is my junior at work then earning 700k per month, omoh this girl they go Egypt, Morocco for vacation while me her Oga no go fit try am

Right.Angelina told me that most directly when I asked her why she was involved in prostitution:
'I'm lazy, I hate to work, and I like expensive things.'
'I would most prefer to just lie around and have someone cater to my needs. 😄

This is the typical woman nature - lazy, broke, hate to work, big wild mouth, high taste, like expensive things but all these should be done by a man and she enjoys it all in the name of Love

Goo0dHardDick:
The girl is too poor to buy an iPhone for herself but somehow she doesn't see herself as broke.. it's the man that's driving Benz that she's broke-shaming for not buying her an iphone? Something she herself cannot afford for her own self? I don't know where they get their audacity from.

The audacity of Nigerian women needs to be studied at mental hospitals, because na crase dey worry many of Dem. Money is more valuable than opueh
