Guwf:
Nonsense sex addict, USA is calling

atelysir:
How can you know for sure
We’ll I know most of us have been a victim of fraud, and I’m so sorry for that....... but you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to

well one can only speak for themselves,I can never fall for these small frauds, the FG pronounced the importation of car fru land Border closed,Im sure no one needs more explanation than that except they themselves are criminal minded.The funny reality is, you are not going to save up to a N100k, so why take risks??

tildats:
You sound like an unintelligent greyhead.
I will take you serious after you explain how you get genuine Lagos BOL for Cotonou bound vehicles.

They don't, its all fraud!

BeeBeees:
All these bridges wey go soon turn to where thief's go dey hide dey worry innocent passersby....
Take a look at mile 1 and Eleme flyover ...you no fit pass there once it's 6pm above...
E too much mbok

The flyover is for cars not tracking !

RobbStark:
The olodo does not live here.
The development of the city is paining him that's why he is crying.
If the gov didn't do anything the same idiot will complain, now he is working and someone is having nightmares that the flyover isn't needed.

It's like the guy lives in a mud house somewhere down a waterfront

If they know howmuch man hours is spent just driving through those places alone!fly overs and good roads are part of societal infrastructure.

jamesversion:
Okay, why do you think GRA flyover is not needed. Cos I know the tombia road and tombia extensions road are being dualized as well. Without a flyover, you are practically inviting anarchy on GRA Junction.

So tell us what you think.

That person has no answer, they do not own even a spare tyre let alone drive. This was how someone said \rumukoro flyover was not needed imagine that! They just hating

Ezewuzie01:
Many of these flyovers that Wike is building in Port Harcourt are not necessary. They are even distorting the serenity and beauty of the city.

see dem,Im sure you do not drive or live near portharcourt

Realhommie:
As to your request, I'll read it up.

To your question, no, I haven't..

Ok we have these places litred around Lagos,PH ABJ etc,if a woman cant produce Eggs they have to buy eggs from one of these facilities and look for a surrogate mother to get the eggs into via IVF. that way the preg girl shared no DNA with he baby,let me not load you up, U can read that stuff all up!

Realhommie:
These ones are sold once the kids are born, it's very different from surrogacy in which a lady would agree to birth a child for a couple or atleast one biological parent. Surrogacy is legal, there are ladies who advertise for it and they're paid handsomely and well taken care of before delivery.

In this very setting young girls are camped and impregnated probably by just one or 2 men and the babies sold off upon being born.

Right I hear you, let us try not to assume here, Nothing in the initial post suggests that all that you just said took place rather there were just two pregnant ladies at the said location. About Legal etc, if you make a research into this industry, there is no law guarding this at the moment, I just give a full writing concerning this issue up there as a report Into this issue Nigeria as a case study.
Pls take ur time to read fru what I posted up there mayB we can have more clarity on how this affects young people, older persons as well.I sincerely hope a law is put forward or is already awarded to regulate the exploitation of these young girls in any case therin!. Can I ask you a question. have you seen any facilities where Guys sell Sperm and Women sell their eggs??

Kingsasian:
This religion of peace sef

This has nothing to do with religion, it's is their dead tradition!

YorubaKinging:
The end is near

The sinful generation is afraid of tidings of war

What you fear most will all happen to you in a day

War, pestilence, hunger and death

This is the punishment for all your sins

Na so E dey take start!

neyoohhh:
Bro or whatever you're, stop bothering me with mundane arguments.

Take your L and move on . No hard feelings, it's all for the good of the greater society.

Adios!

NAH it don't work like that,i AINT UR BRO, I can quote you at will as I deem fit you can FOXTROT OSCAR for all I care , you can even do one!

Nigeria: Legal Approach To Surrogacy In Nigeria
28 August 2019
by Serah Sanni (Abuja)
Seson Legal Practitioners

Serah Onyeche Sanni1

Surrogacy is defined as the practice where a woman (a surrogate) carries a child for another person(s) (the commissioning or intending parents) due to a prior arrangement that the child would be handed over to the commissioning parent at birth.2 Surrogate motherhood refers to a situation where by a third party female elects or is commissioned to carry a pregnancy on behalf of another couple, delivers a baby and hands over to the commissioning parent at birth.3 Typically, two (2) kinds of surrogacy are discernible depending on the existence or not of the genetic link between the surrogate mother and the fetus; traditional surrogacy and gestational surrogacy.

Traditional surrogacy is the practice where the surrogate mother contributes genetically to the conception of the baby by a fertilization of her own eggs via In-Vitro fertilization (IVF) process (i.e. artificial insemination of the surrogate's egg with the commissioning father's semen).4 In contrast, gestational or host surrogacy takes place when the surrogate mother does not contribute genetically to the conception of the baby. Here, the surrogate is strictly the carrier of the pregnancy5. This means that a prior fertilized egg (embryo) is implanted into the uterus of the surrogate and the surrogate carries the pregnancy to full term.

The subject of surrogacy is a unique one and most countries do not have a uniform legal stand on the concept. It may be argued that the sensitive nature of this procedure has affected the way it is viewed and accepted in different societies. This no doubt is an emerging area in some jurisdictions which the law is yet to address sufficiently. Also, a number of legal and social questions have stirred up from the existing laws that attempt to address it. There exists a nagging question of whether a woman's ability to make decisions concerning her own body should include the right to extinguish her parental responsibilities to a child born by her on the basis of a contract agreement. This issues touches on a range of legal concerns including; human rights, reproductive rights morality, public policies, infant rights, rights of children, parental responsibilities & rights.
The Concept of Surrogacy in Nigeria

There is currently no legal framework regulating surrogacy in Nigeria; however there exist a system of arranged third party reproduction prevalent in the country. The Pro-Natalist nature of the traditional African society where procreation is termed invaluable have no doubt contributed to the slow acceptance rate in the conduct of surrogacy as well as the possible build-up of a regulatory frame work. Current investigation revealed the practice of surrogacy in some parts of the country, although the legitimacy of such acts remains debatable considering the non-existence of any law or judicial pronouncement on the said activity.

The concept of surrogacy, although yet to be legally provided for under the Nigerian laws, remain practiced within our shores. In fact a successful gestational surrogacy was reported in the African Journal for Infertility and Assisted Conception of a "35-year-old married graduate trader with primary infertility of 7-year duration due to Mullerian dysgenesis" in south-eastern Nigeria.6 There also exist some privately organized agencies that engage in consensually organized conduct of surrogacy in the country, they do this by serving as the middle ground between the surrogate mother and the commissioning parent. They render the service of bringing parties together through a signed contract agreement. Of course, these agencies operate based on some form of fees payable by parties involved. An example of such agency is "Meet Surrogate Mothers Agency Limited". This registered agency operates as an organization that handles surrogacy arrangements in Lagos, Nigeria. There are also similar others which operates in Abuja and other states within the country.

As generally observed, surrogacy agreements in Nigeria are based on simple contract terms; the concern therefore is whether such contracts birthed for the purpose of surrogacy can be enforced in our national courts. Amidst other requirements, most contracts require two key elements to make them valid and enforceable: All parties must be in agreement (based on an offer and acceptance), and something of value must be exchanged to serve as a consideration. Irrespective of this, some states like California makes surrogacy contracts specifically enforceable while others have been seen to place a band on it. It is also argued in some portals that surrogacy contracts should falls under the category of unenforceable contracts, this argument emanates from the morality attached to the act of surrogacy.7 M.A Field in his work argued from the perspective that certain contracts may not be sufficiently voluntarily entered into to deserve enforcement. Building up on this, he further based his argument on the high tendency of such agreement being exploited against the vulnerable classes.8 It has been observed from most parlance that popular critic on the enforceability of surrogacy agreement are majorly interconnected to moral justification, humanity, financial gain etc. Most anti-surrogacy legislations are promulgated to avoid its abuse, to prevent the exploitation of women, children, poor and the vulnerable class. The exploitative aspect of surrogacy agreements is linked to the commercialization of surrogacy as opposed to the act being carried out for the purpose of humanity.

Like most jurisdictions, in Nigerian, once a contract satisfied the required element, it becomes enforceable. Although there is no law or statute regulating the act of surrogacy in Nigeria, its contracts and agreements remain enforceable. The standpoint of morality and public policy may present a contrary view on the enforcement of surrogacy contracts; it however does not change the fact that surrogacy contracts falls under legally enforceable agreements. Thus, to say the least, it may be suggested that enactments through legislative intervention is needed to help curb possible abuse or exploitation of the procedure. Thus the need for a legal frame works to ensure appropriate regulation.

The Nigerian society is still conservative in this area and it is reflective in the kinds of laws which exist on related issues. Nigeria, been known to have gotten some of its legal cues from the United Kingdom, and considering the existing surrogacy law in the United Kingdom9, prediction points to the possibility that surrogacy agreements may be enforced in our national courts when put to judicial test. From another view, the concept of void contracts under Nigerian law which considers a contract to be void if it is illegal or against public policy may also come into play in affecting the enforceability of surrogacy contracts. It could be argued that such contracts are contrary to public policy as they present the possibility of abuse in the form of:


Conclusion

There are whispers of a 2016 surrogacy bill being presented to the National Assembly, although no statute has emerged from this. Research conducted by the Association for Fertility and Reproductive Health (AFRH) of Nigeria, a non-governmental association of assisted reproductive technology (ART) providers concluded that the absence of a law regulating ART in Nigeria have largely contributed to the growing unethical practices.10 Respondents to the research believed that a law regulating ART in Nigeria would improve the standards of practice, monitor ART agencies and ensure that all participants abide by the law. This would definitely curb the existence of baby factories and exploitation of both surrogate mothers and commissioning parents. A statute that seeks to regulate surrogacy must therefore be structured to combat such abuse.

The process of surrogacy as we know is one that should not be treated like simple contracts because different lives are affected in the process, particularly the life of the unborn child who was not a party to the contract, and is certainly affected by the result of the agreement. The unique nature of human reproduction should take into account the right of a surrogate mother to change her mind as well. Financial loss or gain should not be the deciding factor because it is the place of the law to protect the public by implementing policies that do not detract from fundamental human rights. The Supreme Court of New Jersey in Re Baby M invalidated surrogacy contracts citing public policy concerns. That case upheld the surrogate mother's rights however, custody was granted to the biological father of Baby M. The decision was based on a custody decision that was in the best interest of the baby as opposed to the contractual rights of the commissioning parents.

In developing and maintaining a legal regulatory frame work and a holistic practice of surrogacy in Nigeria, the legislature and the judiciary in developing and enforcing decisions should bare in mind the best interests of the babies born as much as the interests of the parties to the contract.

cooltola:
The western nations will not sell their top jet fighters to African countries. It is not going to happen, or else they will not be dominant in the air- One of the top jet fighters cost 2 billions dollar and counting. So it is either we develop technology to compete or the western nations keep selling African country toy planes

But they can sell the ones sold to Egypt and South Africa to us nahhhh

presidency:
The first batch of 6 A-29 Super Tucano aircraft have departed the United States of America on Wednesday, 14 July 2021 enroute Nigeria. The 6 aircraft will be leapfrogged through 5 countries including Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Spain and Algeria before arriving their final destination in Nigeria towards the end of July 2021. An official induction ceremony of the aircraft into the inventory of the Nigerian Air Force is already being planned at a later date in August 2021 to be announced in due course. The Office of the Director of Public Relations and Information remains open to any inquiry regarding the arrival and induction of the aircraft.

Thank you.

Good Lord!

Jimasun:
You see how unintelligent you sound

Was it a Lie??or you thought I engage people without 1st going fru their profile??if u cant stand the heat do not get into the kitchen!

Jimasun:
The person you are engaging is a product of baby factory. He lack natural nutrients that should have helped his brain grow properly. He is suffering from brain deformation.
Stop wasting your time.
People that see fake drug as a hustle

Coming from you who a 22-year-OLD girl dumped nah that's taking the pisssssss

neyoohhh:
I don't live in Nigeria you dumb fvk.

Surrogacy is different from human farms, how many times do i have to repeat myself.

You peeps, the peeps you're defending, probably your peeps. You get it.

I know you don't, you live in a shytehole

neyoohhh:
The last batch they caught, said they were raped, treated poorly which is completely different from the rosy picture you're trying to paint here.

You're comparing a human breeding farm to surrogacy?, should I send you the countless news articles of what these animals do to those vunerable women.

To think this is coming from a woman.

me a woman, pls go to my profile on here, you must be deranged!

Realhommie:
He/She is right though. This isn't surrogacy like you tried insinuating, they're two different things entirely..

Care to please tell the difference, no offence! since there appears to be a difference.

PVision2020:
Folks like you will defend anything based on tribal bias.
How can a sane human compare baby factory to surrogacy?
God!!!

explain to me please the difference in your own understanding so we can all learn, please!

frozen70:
Surrogate is when some one is paid to carry a couple pregnancy

Lawyers are involved in this and the person is paid very well

This is correct, and this is why when these cases die on arrival at the court!,Just cos there was a compound of 12 rooms full of 7 pregnant girls does no automatically mean its a crime. The vast majority of folks do not understand that this is not unlawful. Im sure you must agree with me that those who pay for surrogacy are not poor people.As you said, lawyers sign and there is a big legal framework to this ,This is the highest form of fertility treatment!

neyoohhh:
Well here we go with the assumptions, typical low IQ trait..
What has my account got to do with this, it's irrelevant on an anonymous forum.

You can't have a meaningful argument because you don't want to face the truth that your peeps are criminal minded baby seller's.

erm what do you mean by you peeps, explain that
like I said You live in a shytehole hence ur level of reasoning is after than the so-called leaders you castigate daily!
2021 you still do not have a clue of what surrogacy is and when pointed to the right direction you are throwing ur dummy outta the pram!

neyoohhh:
I'm still waiting for you to use your thinking faculty.

Your iq should be good enough to search on Google even if u can't open links .

Still criminal minded even when outside of Nigeria. Rubbish

coming from you a LOW LIFE less than a man that cant use their real user name to have a meaningful argument but form a new ID few days ago? nah bro that's taking the pissss

neyoohhh:
You don't have to iq to understand sacarsm .

The joke is on you.

Do I come across like Im joking?The fact remains the same, you have google surrogacy and by now you have a clue of what it is instead of you admitting you have ben a DIkkk, you are here blabbbbinngg

neyoohhh:
Surrogacy is kidnapping women, including underage, locking them up in an enclosed building for months with little care and allowing random males to rape them , only for the children to be carted away like animals to the highest bidder's and only heaven knows what they do with those children.


That's your surrogacy, the one you choose to ignore whilst trying to inject the English definitions.
. open the goddamn links or type baby factory into Google .

Wow,your level of Eduction in that shytehole is mind-blowing, you must have been educated in a well-developed CAMP!
