So nacking is now a sin or Is it not meant for human being ni??

Would you say this if this was all about a woman? Or would you be shouting "olosho", "women of nowadays", etc?

Busy body.. Go find something doing ediot, I'm having a conversation with someone else and you have carried your miserable self to this place.. You're just a cursed worthless illiterate miscreant looking for attention.. Ediot

You couldn't even counter his points. You're just cursing. Nawa o.

What kind of bond? What's the implication of walking away before the end of the four years? I'm asking cause it all depends on the terms. Years back, I got a job that required me to sign such and according to the terms, I would be practically tied down within the four year period. I interpreted that to mean they'd been experiencing high employee turn over, and instead of them to find out what's making their people leave, they wanted to do a brute force approach by asking new employees to sign ridiculous agreements. So I turned down the offer. And guess what, they called me back and scrapped the idea. Did I eventually join them, that's a story for another day.

This is actually very common in the Nigerian software industry. The first answer that came to my mind was "don't sign that!" but your case might be different as there are factors to consider such as the terms of the contract, your experience level and how desperate you are (or how confident you are about easily getting another offer) and also, your age (how old you'd be after after the four year period might affect your employability then if your experience level doesn't level up, and they know this).

Best of luck!

She said she has suffered and can never be the same again. OP reported that she said she has suffered and can never be normal again. Tomorrow, when people are calling out our politicians for thier corruption, OP too will join. Fake news peddling is wickedness and not hustling.

Only legally married couples can be legally separated (divorced).

Nigerian law envisages 3 types of marriages namely; traditional/customary marriage; church/Islamic marriage and statutory marriage. However, since many churches are recognised as statutory places of worship, couples married in such churches are issued both church marriage certificate and statutory marriage certificate (normally signed after the wedding ceremony in the presence or witnesses). The Matrimonial Cause Act aimed at regulating only statutory marriage (which by extension now includes church marriage). The dissolution requirements of these types of marriages are somewhat incompatible seeing that Islamic marriage and customary marriage have the potential to become polygamous, a system not recognised by the statutory law. Although these conflicts are still there (just like many other Nigerian laws begging for amendment), the unique nature of Islamic marriage has made it convenient for divorce cases in that area to be left to the Islamic law while cases regarding the dissolution of marriages exclusively contracted under the customary provisions (traditional marriage) are left to the customary law (a very complex law with many limitations). Since statutory and customary laws do not make precisely the same provisions for divorce, the glitch is when a couple seeking divorce is bound by both laws (this happens mostly to Christians who do both traditional and church marriage processes). However, that's a discussion for another day. The point here is that all these marriages are recognised by the law and only couples bound by them can seek divorce.

She's a citizen, her brother earlier posted the video on Facebook.
They are citizen of Nigeria parents.

I know. I'm just wondering how the picture depicted that.

Gerrard59:
Why do you assume she's is living illegally? From her environment and demeanour, she comes across a citizen.

Just curious, how does the environment suggest she's a citizen?

We always use the US as a model. If the US is like this, then we should be fine like that. I appreciate that cause the US as a country has passed through many of the things we're passing through today. It's the most populated country amongst the oldest democracies so there's always something to learn from their model. But we must also consider the nuances between our society and the American society.

My point is, it could still be age. You see, America was already enlightened even before Trump was born. So even though he's old, he was born into an enlightened and progressive society. Same goes for Biden and the rest. The gap between the old and the youth in the US is generally not dramatically wide. Whereas in Nigeria, it's a different ball game. The country has experienced some shift in lifestyle in relatively recent years perhaps due to foreign education, the internet and other forms of youth exposure. Thus, the younger generation has a drastically different perspective. Their desires, their definition of fulfillment, their hunger to catch up with the rest of the world, etc. might be different. A power switch between the older generation and the current one would definitely not be business as usual. Something may remain, after all, they are our elders and we learned a lot from them both good and bad. But like I said, it will definitely not be the same outcome. Whether the younger generation will do better or worse is yet another discussion.

I don't really subscribe to this African mentality of a place belonging to a particular people. Here in the western world, you're from wherever you are born. It mustn't necessarily be where your parents are from. This is because humans will keep moving. Even the people claiming to own the state in Nigeria might have come from somewhere if you begin to trace back their origin. So I wonder where Africans draw the line. Nigerian has the advantage of being one race. One would think this would make them a united people with common goals but instead, they've decided to create divisions by sticking to some archaic/prehistoric lifestyle. A typical African does not like change (except when forced) and everyone wants to somehow be superior.

Secular muslims? That doesn't even make sense.

Lol, OP what are you writing?

Ahappy:
Can you believe that a pastor in the church said that the person must pray to God for forgiveness of sin so as not to become rejected in the society as a result of the act..

That shows that religious teachings are heavily influenced by culture. It has always been like that even in the days of Elijah. You think God will punish a left handed person for using his left hand? The absurdity!

Nigerians though. Americans are dumb for deciding their own fate. You, extremely wise, ended up with the best politicians on earth. Lol.

If it's a sin, then the person that created left handed people is also a sinful being. Let's stop discriminating against people's nature in the name of religious or culture. Nature is extremely diverse and humans are products of nature.

America is on the brink of a Civil War.

On the brink of a civil war ke?

Lol.. NL people and their political analysis.

Franktom247:
Women are the greatest problem to women in case you dont know na me talk am

You don't have to make everything about gender. Is it not men kidnapping, defrauding and even shooting fellow men everyday on home page? Nobody brings in gender when men do all sorts of things to their fellow men but once a lady is involved, "women are the greatest problem to women". Learn to address individual cases as a unit and stop the gender bias.

Sonnobax15:
Beautifool indeed...

You can disagree without the name calling. Or at best, make your submission and leave others theirs.

Security at its worse. I wonder how the family of the kidnapped would be feeling now.

But I don't get these doctors. So bad people kidnapped your colleague and you're punishing the masses? If other professionals went on strike each time something bad happened to their colleagues, you think they'd still be Nigeria? Is there a hidden demand here? Do they want the government to provide each doctor with police men? Every group of people in Nigeria think they are superior and should be treated differently.

Beautiful

Batam:
Can't they replaced his name?
I'm sure if it Nigeria you will start calling them names like asshole, shithole, deadhead etc

Replace him where? His votes came mostly as mails. So where are you replacing him? In the mind of the voters?

ouzo1:
finally dis one don make small sense.

There is no sense here. The guy died a few weeks before the election. Voting was mainly done via mail in some places and you can't stop such voters from picking someone.

chris51:
He has no choice. If he doesn't want to accept defeat, the Speaker will be sworn in and he won't like that.

Speaker is Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat.

Yes, Chris. I agree with you. He's got no choice. The Trump era is almost over. Let's see how it goes.

YEEEBOS IPOBS YEASTENERS HOW MARKET

Even an election in a country where no one cares about you is causing a tribal division in your country? Wow.

OyinO:
You started well but ended up woefully poor. Despite the situation...? So what makes Democracy not to be precious in other countries like Nigeria?/Is it not because this kinda situations?

Free World they are killing Blacks like Sallah ram and Xmas chicken?

Y'all get overly emotional over nothing. The Free World is an expression used to refer to the western bloc or any country that allied with the US during the cold war. The US is clearly in the centre of the free world, and anyone that has any idea about political science knows the American democracy, however faulty it might be, has been a model and point of reference for many other democratic nations and there are many reasons for this. Asides from the theoretical model of checks and balances, it is the most populous nation amongst the 7 oldest democracies (democracy is considered very difficult in populated countries). Such a position is very critical thus my comment.

I dont know what you're on about. I never mentioned Nigeria. This thread is clearly not about Nigeria or any other nation. It's about the US and the American democracy and that's what my comment was about. If you want to talk about Nigeria, Nigerian democratic model is hybrid. Mauritius is the only full democracy in Africa. And this is not about the issues in Nigeria, it's about the structure. That's why I said "despite the situation in the US". And you are telling me about their issues. Which country does not have issues? Even with the issues, as a black man, where do you feel safer, in Atlanta or in Maiduguri? If you're given a job in New York city, won't you go?

Woefully poor? Lol... Please, don't quote with all this aggressive and fang baring attitude you guys are known for onhere. The lack of decorum is unsettling. Whatever you say, you're right. Just free me.

Lol... some people here feared he might not accept the result. And when he was asked if he would, he didn't give any clear response. Hope this fear isn't becoming reality. Despite the situation in the US, the country is still the leader of the free world. Their democracy is precious.

Lol

Hyland:
Lol, I thought the headline was "Lady Gaga goes Gaga after Wizkid followed her on Instagram"
How is that even an achievement? I'm sure she must be feeling like she made it in life lol.

As if you wouldn't go gagaga if your favourite footballer follows you. She's a fan of the musician, she doesn't need to have made it in life to go gaga.

Slams?

It's female posing as a male

You know him personally or you're saying this just because he doesn't always blindly take the male's side in every story like most people do onhere?

It's beyond Experience Matters!

It's a Battle btw Globalist and Nationalist!

The Globalist are the ones pushing Madam okonji.
The likes of Bill gates, the guys pushing for a Nwo and one world government!
The Trump administration is the Bone in the neck of the Globalist!
Definitely The Trump administration will not Support who they support!
That is why they wanna wait until after the Election!

In all these! What is the RAPTURE is at Hand!
We Must Ensure we are Ready for it.
It's gonna be Suddenly!

GOD is in Control!!
We keep watching to see what he allows..

Please, be separating your opinion from the WORD. I was told the WORD is infallible but your opinion is. If you keep muddling up your conspiracy theories with your preaching, you'll lose touch. Just a suggest.

Nuel4:
Oh my god! I have wasted my time arguing with someone who confidently spouts things he has zero idea about.
What's incel community? Disagree with a woman online and she will call you an "incel" which means involuntary celebate which means men who are unable to find or attract a woman to have sex with. That's the reverse word for olosho, whorre etc. The way some men dismiss women opinions as that of an olosho is the exact same way women dismiss men's opinion as that of an incel.
No human being on earth identify as an incel. It is a swear word. There are no incel communities causing deaths anywhere. Go educate yourself on the going ons in the world before you ignorantly spout rubbish
Lol so this is the person I have been wasting my time trying to educate? Lol
You went to search the word on Google and carbon copied a feminists' derogatory talking points and quickly came here to regurgitate what you were fed

CAPSLOCKED Martinez39 I don't know if you guys can help me explain this incel issue to this guy

Oga, calm down o. The word didn't just start off as a derogatory word. It existed as an online community and yes, people called themselves incels. Here in Canada, the so called incels were annoying (I don't know about now). Just saying.
