Check Out this Mean Nigerian Lady Who Says 'She Can Only Marry A Man With A Deceased Mom'.

Meet Cynthia, the lady who prays her future husband’s mum (mother-in-law) to die and not reap the fruit of her labour.

Trust Nigerians na, they served her in her own coin.


A piece for this lady:

There have never been a time when marriages are easy but with time people compromise on beliefs for peace to reign so no matter how mean, demonic, vindictive or whatever name you might chose to call mother in-laws it’s no justification for what you just said young lady.

Imagine your own son’s fiancee who is exactly like you, wishing you death...

Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Mr. Ibe Kachikwu, on Saturday got a tongue-lashing from the national leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, over his recent comments on the lingering fuel scarcity in the country.

The former Governor of Lagos State took a swipe at the minister, who is also the Group Managing Director of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, for saying he was not a magician who could end the scarcity of Premium Motor Spirit, also known as petrol.

The APC leader stated that the minister was answerable to Nigerians and not the other way round.

Tinubu stated this on Saturday in a statement titled, ‘Kachikwu Needs to Know That Respect and Good Performance Will Do What Magic Cannot.’

Referring to the minister, Tinubu said he believed a member of the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government “has strayed from the progressive calling required of this administration.”

Kachikwu had on Wednesday, while speaking with State House correspondents shortly after he led a joint delegation of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria and the Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers to meet with Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, said since he was not a magician, the fuel queues could not be eliminated with a magic wand.

He added that despite the efforts being put in place by the Federal Government, fuel queues might not be completely eliminated until about two months (May).

The minister noted that with the reality on the ground, it was by sheer magic that the country had the amount of products it currently had at the filling stations.

However, Tinubu, on Saturday, stated that there might be no economic matter more difficult to unravel and more sensitive to the purse of the average person than the current fuel scarcity.

The APC leader said despite that, he was confident of progress because he knew the commitment of the President to resolving the issue.

“I make no attempt to hide it. I am an avid and partisan supporter of this government and of the progressive policies of the party, the APC, upon which this government is based,” the ex-governor stated.

Tinubu added, “With that, I do reserve the right and the duty as a Nigerian to voice my opinion when I believe a member of this government has strayed from the progressive calling required of this administration. I do this because my greater devotion and love are for this nation and its people. Party and politics fall secondary.

“Much public ire has been drawn to the statement made by the Minister of State (for Petroleum Resources) Ibe Kachikwu that he was not trained as a magician and that basically Nigerians should count themselves fortunate that the NNPC under his stewardship has been able to bring in the amount of petrol it is currently doing.

“Perhaps the statement by Kachikwu was made in a moment of unguarded frustration or was an awkward attempt at a joke. Whatever the motive, it was untimely and off-putting. The remark did not sit well with the Nigerian people; they were as right to feel insulted as the minister was wrong to have said such a thing.

“The fuel shortage is severely biting for the average person. They are forced to remain in lines far too long — for too much time — to pay too much money for too little fuel. This is no joking matter. Livelihoods and people’s welfare are at stake.

“With so much on the line, Kachikwu’s flippancy was out-of-line. He was basically telling Nigerians that they should be lucky that they are getting the inadequate supply they now suffer and that they should just be quiet and endure the shortage for several weeks more.”

Saying Kachikwu’s intervention was unhelpful, the APC leader said it rather panicked and disappointed the public as to the duration of the crisis.

“It insulted the people by its tonality. He spoke with the imperious nature of a member of the elitist government the people voted out last year and not the progressive one they voted in,” he added.

Tinubu also said Kachikwu must be reminded that he was not coerced to take the job, adding that the minster accepted the job and its responsibilities “knowingly.”

The ex-governor said the NNPC GMD must also remember that he does not own the corporation and that the NNPC was not a private company that owes nothing to the public except the duty of fair dealing.

Tinubu added, “He is a public servant. The seat he sits upon is owned by Nigerians, not by him. The company he runs is owned by Nigerians, not by him. They are his boss. He is not theirs. Power is vested in the people. He is a mere custodian or agent of their will.

“In talking to us in such a manner, he committed an act of insubordination. If he had talked so cavalierly to his boss in the private sector, he would have been reprimanded or worse. If wise, the man should refrain from such interjections in the future.

“As his ultimate bosses, the people have a right to demand the requisite performance and respect from him. He should apologise for treating them so lightly in this instance.”

The APC leader noted that as Kachikwu’s portfolio was a strategically important one, the minister needed to re-establish the correct relationship with the public.

He said Nigerians no longer felt Kachikwu was working for their optimal benefit as their servant. “Instead, he seems to be standing above them, telling them to take it or leave it,” Tinubu added.

The politician stated that for the minister’s policies and stint in office to be successful and of help to the government, he (Kachikwu) must have the support and belief of the people at this tough time.

Tinubu said the NNPC boss must talk to them in a way that they believe he seeks their best interest and understands the hardship weighing upon them.

“He must ask them to work with him and, perhaps, to endure a bit longer but with the knowledge that he is working to resolve this matter as fast as he can and as permanently as possible; that he is dedicated to the position that once these current lines are gone, never again shall they reappear, as long as he has any influence in the matter.

“To do this requires no magic or training in that strange craft. It requires empathy, compassion and the willpower to forge a better Nigeria. These must be the common trademarks of those serving in a progressive government, for these attributes are integral parts of the spirit and ideals upon which the APC was founded,” Tinubu added.

When contacted, the Director, Press and Public Relations, Ministry of Petroleum Resources, Mr. Idang Alibi, told SUNDAY PUNCH that the ministry had yet to see the statement by Tinubu.

He stated that the ministry would wish to react to it when it gets the statement and promised to get across to Kachikwu and respond to our correspondent.

Alibi said, “We will need to find out what Tinubu actually said before getting across to the minister.”

When asked if he would get back to our correspondent after speaking with the minister, he replied, “Well, it depends on the response from the other side. If I get a response, I will get back to you.”

When probed further if he would get across to the minister on Saturday night, Alibi replied again, “I hope so.”

Also, calls to the mobile phone of the Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs Division of the NNPC, Mr. Garba Deen, were not answered.

A detailed text message sent to him was also not replied.

Up till the time (8.53pm) of filing in this report, no response was received from the ministry and the NNPC.

The scarcity of petrol has lingered since January, as hundreds of motorists besiege few filling stations that dispense the product on a daily basis.

Kachikwu’s comment had drawn heavy criticisms from various stakeholders, including the organised labour, petroleum marketers, oil industry workers, manufacturers, experts in the oil sector and the latest from Tinubu.

Redomi, I'm still waiting for the call out. Haba! It's getting too much. You have complex issues and u need to see a guidance counselor asap. Na ur type dey commit suicide. If u don't value urself, who will?

I remember ur rants here last year when groups were been created, you were added to the group. And u left on ur volition after so many pleas. We are from the same state but u fall my hand big time. You left for whatever reason was tenable to you. I have investigated this and I learnt you want to be added to the group u left on ur volition. Why? If u are added, won't you leave again? Can u stand d pressure?

Don't have the feeling that some people are better off than you. We are all living and existing through God's mercies. You quit easily and it's not good enough.

Nobody has insulted you to the best of my knowledge but you misconstrue people's comments as insults. You need to see a therapist asap. May God help you.

I think with these few jabs thrown at him, his rantings would cease for the time being.

Abeg make I return to the 'Holy land' abeg, I've got some stories there dying for my attention.

Ore mi, Ore mi!

The Enquirer and OneManLegion, both of you have just succeeded in making me popular even before I die.


The number of mentions you guys have given me could have easily been exchanged for a chieftancy title during the pre-colonial era.


Mehn! The kinda jabs & punchlines that are being thrown around here is one that would make even the devil blush with embarrassment. Make una no stop abeg, I'm fvcking enjoying it.


Whoever wins, I promise to hug the person.

Someone who speaks rashly and recklessly is feared and hated by everyone on the thread.
A wise admin will educate his members, and his forum will be orderly. All the members and visitors will like the admin.
An uneducated admin will ruin his people, but a forum will grow strong, if the admin is wise.

Whenever I see comments like this on this thread, I can help but gnash my teeth in anger.


Rather than speaking tongue in-cheek, why not be bold enough to explicitly state your discontentment. Oga you no be woman nau, even a female like me have guts. I've never been scared of attacking anybody here should there be need for it. But all these your grammatical prolixity though, it's 'unmanly'


Now, lemme ask you in simple Queen's English;
- What is happening?
- Who's that so-called 'admin' that has been bullying people here with such impunity?


P.S If you cannot answer in clear terms the two questions above, kindly shove your complaints down your anu* or better still unfollow this thread.

I really can't blame the girl though, sometimes we ladies want so dare-devil adventure. I've been in this kinda situation before, but the only difference was that I didn't go to the guy's house. He came to my place, that was why I could hold myself when the whole touch & do started. If not, him for don mark register that day.


Any lady that calls the babe in question a slut is either immature or a pretender. Sh*t happens sometimes.

You're dating one girl whom you claim to love, then you're directly asking another one (whom you also feel something for) to be your friend.


Repeat what you typed above in a bournvita can, then put it in your ear to hear how it all sounds. Only then will you know how confused you really are. We ladies have a simple lifestyle that shouldn't be complicated. For her to be relatively close to you shows she has already accepted you as a friend. To now keep reiterating that you want her to be your friend again is the height of 'complications' like what exactly do you really mean?

Just when I thought we've had it all about celebs and their 'Attention-seeking lifestyle'


Besides, it seems the Mod on duty today is an upcoming artists that is looking for endorsements. If not, all these yeyebrity news wouldn't be gracing front page anyhow at the expense of useful news that would change the state of the economy.

Although I don't know much about America's electioneering history. But this Trump of a guy has somewhat been an embarrassment to the Republicans.


Although the Republicans have been known to be war-mongers, but this guy's case is just an extreme example. His utterances, haba? Very unbecoming of a presidential candidate.


Hillary, please teach this douchebag a lesson!


Oh! Less I forget, CFCman, thanks for the update. Been following all these events on Flipboard before now, but the way and manner they (Americans) insult themselves there is despicable. If I hadn't seen it, I'd have thought civilisation ended there is America.
