Please can someone update me on the stock exchange company AMYN Investments.

All my emails in recent times have not been replied to and I am wondering if they are still in operation.

PMB please just like you are using your stubbornness on our forex policy and insisting ignorantly that the law of demand and supply will not work on our forex (it will always work though, it is only a matter of time before you or your team officially announce the devaluation of the already devalued Naira), why not apply it to tomato price in Nigeria?

You are truly ignorant on economics Mr President.

This is the silliest comment i have read on nl. If this is what happened 2 ur mum,then ur father needs 2 be shot.
A housewife has a choice 2 cook anytime she pleases nd any food she pleases.she can sleep the whole day nd cook when her husband return from work,she can clean at her own convenience,she can travel whenever she wants nd go to parties with her husband.she can go shopping with her husband money nd enjoy a massage when hubby is working.she can watch tv the whole day because the remaining food she cooked yesterday will still serve the family for 2 days.she can decide 2 do laundry on weekends only. I am with a housewife right now doing her nails and left her 1 years old with her hubby at home because they have a reception this afternoon.
jesus where are u from? wow
what is the definition of slave?why did u choose 2 sound this dumb all of a sudden?

@Nasha1 and MrBrownJ please let us remain civil with putting our positions across.

I agree with most of your points nasha1.

@MrBrownJ, you seems to think all employees are slaves because they have to follow the company's guidelines if they want to remain an employee.

johnson232:
i'm not trying to make up anything for u.
the article presents a somewhat lopsided view of respect... just trying to point it out.

The article was meant to focus on a particular topic, on the less protected in our society. When I said men should respect their wives to earn it, what is lopsided in that? It means respect is reciprocal.

MRBrownJ:
bwaaaaah, here is another one who has English comprehension issues..... again, if a woman decides to live the traditional way then YES that person has no choice but to cook and clean as a slave (whether she likes it or not), because thats what the traditional way is about

A SLAVE has no choice. As long as you can choose from different options then it is called FREEDOM. A woman that chose to be a "traditional" wife is not a SLAVE. If a woman is forced to do it without her consent then that is SLAVERY.

johnson232:
but u never stated it....

If someone did not state something, don't make it up for him or her.

MRBrownJ:
shouldnt you think of what is RIGHT to do when bringing these options? whether against the law or not, some things are WRONG.
advising anyone that cheating, insulting, lying, being dishonest etc is ok, makes very little sense.

Don't make this personal, my write was simply to clarify that in a 21st century Nigeria, men are not superior to women. They are equal partners in marriage. If the man deemed it fit to cheat and he was treated with kids gloves, the same treatment should be meted out to a woman who committed the same.

Also I needed to clarify options and choices to you, because in my opinion, you think if it is immoral then it is not a choice.

MRBrownJ:
i guess then beating your wife is also an option in your mind, when having disagreement with your spouse?!

Yes, it is a choice to beat your wife, but it is a criminal offence to do so. It is a choice to cheat, to beat, to steal, to vote or not vote but some are criminal offences in law and some are not. To abuse your wife is a criminal offence enshrined in the Nigeria law, but cheating on your husband will end up in the family court as far as the secular constitution is concern.

crackhaus:
Not that one, the last post on page (0).

please ask again, I may have missed it

crackhaus:
@ fancyupage, still curious as to how you respond to my last comment on the first page.

Surely, I didn't type all that for nothing unless I'm to believe you're in total agreement.

You asked a question and I have answered it. how can I agree to a question? hehe

crackhaus:
Hard to admit, but all this talk about who has a right to cheat in marriage will be better laid to rest of women collectively try to abolish this thing called marriage rites (bride price) being paid on their heads.

The truth is that some men (even if they don't say or act like it) have this innate belief that a woman who milked them with expenses such as bride list, bride price, paying for almost everything in the wedding including her wedding dress, and basically giving her the big Cinderella wedding she always dreamed of...has no right to cheat on him - it is what it is.

Women should help themselves and help everyone. Whether you're a working wife or not, some men still feel a woman has no right to cheat on them with the way Nigerian marriage rites are structured.

What you should be trying to deal with is the foundation, which poses the question
"Why exactly do a lot of Nigerian men feel that their wives have no right to cheat on them?" - don't rush, think about it deeply and tell me what you come up with.

I have answered you. Ignorance

In the yesteryear when women have no protection in law such mumbo jumbo stood but no longer valid.

MRBrownJ:
how can cheating be an option? it should NEVER be as it is NOT right... and just because many deluded people indulge in that act, doesnt make it any more right. there are only 2 options: foolishly stay or divorce.

hahaha, cheating is an option because it I available. You may not like it, our society may frown at it I may not like it but it remains an option.

Localamos:
It's not a right. It's a CHOICE - with manifold negative consequences.

And what is wrong is wrong. A man should not beat his wife. He should remain faithful to her. He should cherish and adore her. The wife should do same and if any condition should threaten her virtues, (I think) it's better for her to call it quits rather than compromise her body.

I won't judge any woman who has done this, but I tell you, it doesn't solve the problems on hand. Rather, it complicates it - usually to the detriment of the woman.

IT EITHER YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO A CHOICE OR YOU DON'T.

Ability to choose is called FREEDOM. YOU CAN USE GRAMMAR, Every woman can choose freedom or slavery.

You do not have to cheat because your husband cheated but it is your choice to make, hence it is your RIGHT because you have the sole right to the choice.

Localamos:
No woman had the RIGHT to cheat - under any circumstances. Neither does any man.

Here you're advocating retaliatory cheating. Let highlight the damages that will certainly arise from that act

1. You have compromised your body. You yourself will feel a guilt of worthlessness and shame. You will weep instead of enjoying the act.
2. You continue in the act and you would sear your conscience. Then you have begun to lose hold on your ability to determine what's right or wrong. That has a far reaching consequence on other aspects of your life.
3. You increase the risk of having HIV/AIDS and other STDs.
4. Broken heart
5. Broken home,
6. Broken head and the worst of all...
7. You could get killed.

I'm not even talking about the negative impacts on Other people in your life like your kids, parents, friends etc.

A RIGHT IS A RIGHT, you have the right to eat cheese every day but the consequences are there.

You have the right to drink full fat coke daily but the consequences are there

Consequences does not deny you the RIGHT.

tearoses:
Morally?
lawfully?
any other lly?

Moral and law are sometimes different. A right is a right, a right to go to sexy party, a right to associate, a right to go to religious house, a right to seek for work or not, a right to have kids or not, a right to divorce,

Remember it may be morally wrong in state A but morally right in B. We humans set moral standards.

Localamos:
No one should be beaten even once!

Marriage is meant to maintain mutual respect and affection. So no man, under any circumstances, should raise his hand against his wife. Same thing goes for the wife too!

You don't have control over being beaten at the first time. It means if your man ever lay his hands on you once, then finish off the marriage because a second beating would confirm your foolishness.

mii4u:
i never said that the men has the right to cheat. pls read my post again. thanks

Never said anything about man having a right or not. Please read and digest.

I said you have the RIGHT to cheat, it is left for you to use it if you so wish. A RIGHT IS YOUR FREE GIFT TO USE AT WILL.

Women if your husband is abusing you, please Google up where you can get help. Don't stay with an abuser, he will kill you either mentally or physically.

Don't stay because of the kids, it is a cultural lies that have been reported many times enough to make us think it is true.

No one should be beaten twice in a marriage except a FOOL.

mii4u:
I am a woman but I do not agree with the fact that a woman has the right to cheat.jyst becos the man cheated, women has deeper heart to accommodate and forgive, that is our nature, men has little or no patience with a cheating wife, though I'm not trying to justify a cheating husband, it is VERY WRONG to cheat on ur partner, let's assume that it happened, as the man is boldly owning up before pple to say he sleeps around, can u a woman own up same before a group of pple? that is thr difference. women go fit hold body, men no dey fit, but it's not good for a man to cheat .

You have the right, that does not mean you should use it. No one can take the right to cheat from a woman.

tearoses:
So If my husband cheats, I should go out and find a man to cheat with?
Even if its not my nature
Even if it means disrespecting myself
Will it make me feel better?
I doubt it
Revenge seems sweet until you do it and then realise that it doesn't feel that good after all.

The person you are cheating with you will eventually break up with
....and the next one
.....and the next one

You will be the side chick and be ducking and hiding from the other mans wife.
Better to leave the marriage than to put yourself through more unnecessary emotional stress
The day you have headache you will say maybe its because God is angry with you
Anyway I no get that kain power
im too high maintenance to be anyone's side chick.

Women have more emotional needs than men. We need more than just sex. How will the man I am cheating with be able to fill all those needs whist I am under someone else's roof?
Can he turn and give me a cuddle and kiss in the night whilst I am in my bed with my cheating husband and he is in bed at home with his wife?
Personally I think any woman that settles for this is just selling herself short.
Better to leave the marriage and find a 100% available & committed man. Not stolen minutes with lover boy in Macdonalds car park.

I agree with your option, it is one of the three options a woman has

one stay in the marriage and endure bitterness and abuses.

two find a boyfriend that may temporary help with your affectionate need

three divorce and seek a new relationship.

my write up was not saying that a woman should cheat because her man cheated, I was clear, it meant that a man should expect to be treated as he treated his wife and not to expect anything different. The choice is that of the woman.

misreal:
"men should always treat their wives with respect to earn it"...so women should not treat their husbands with respect to earn it abi??both husband and wife should treat themselves with respect.dont try to blame it on men alone..

Don't jump into conclusion, I never said women should disrespect their husbands, you said it. I was very clear, respect is reciprocal.

MRBrownJ:
your hubby must be a great man, lol! slightly different? hhmm ok, have a great evening and you will have plenty of time to let us know your views on infidelity, some other days.



so that man is guilty, right? without a shadow of doubt, and therefore we should just lock him up for life, abi?
did the husband confirmed that he was abusive and jealous, or is that also the "he say she say" BS newspaper claims?

Please don't miscontrue this debate, the issue here is an allegation of murder and only a court can determine a guilt verdict. I have maintained it is an allegation

MRBrownJ:
then as the man claimed he didnt do it, why dont you let that same law run its course... innocent until proven guilty, right?



FIXED

What are you fixing? I have already put Alleged where it is appropriate. No one dies because of cheating so there cannot be an allegation. Cheating does not kill, men and women kill. That Lekan is abusive and jealous is an established fact with loads of evidence and he is not denying that as well. The only appropriate place for allegation is that of saying he murdered...which I already did. So please stop your fantasy of fixed lol

MRBrownJ:
FIXED AGAIN.... dont just listen to the one sided people quick to talk about what they dont know.



yes it is true that men generally have a higher sex drive than women but that doesnt mean they should disrespect their partner and cheat. its the men that can control themselves who cheat (aka the weak ones). you see, any man can get into a situation and find himself with a beautiful nekkid woman and a hard on, the important point is that it is his BRAIN/MIND that would make him approach that woman and eat the forbidden fruit. cheating is a CHOICE that men who cant control themselves consciously make, because they are weak.

what are you fixing? that Lekan was beating his wife and promised not to do it again is an established fact. CONFIRMED

sweetcocoa:
It's not what's kept the world going, the world would keep going without all those.

If you mean sleep with someone else while in a relationship, then no I've not but if we are talking flirting then yes I have.

You?

Most of the men trying to blame Ronke o allegation of cheating cannot vouch they have never cheated. That said the issue here is an allegation of murder which Lekan need to answer to.

May African women be liberated from the claws of men who thinks there are mini god and the woman is just a thing.

MRBrownJ:
then as the man claimed he didnt do it, why dont you let that same law run its course... innocent until proven guilty, right?



FIXED

That Lekan is abusive is an established fact. it is no longer an allegation. Lekan is suffering from anger management and cultural idiocy.

MRBrownJ:
and yet, intelligent and evolved women know that and still wanna cheat on these lower animals?! makes no damn sense!



sneaky and sly until she got caught, why dont you ask her if the sex was worth her death? these "supposed" sneaky women are the one that needs their head checked... why would she even cheat on a mad man?! that in itself is MADNESS

it is the madmen that should see a doctor for mental health therapy. Ronke did not die because she cheated, she died because she was alleged to have been murdered in cold blood by an abusive and jealous husband.

MRBrownJ:
i said they are both UNACCEPTABLE, not that they were criminal acts.... but hey, since you mentionned it, yes they are, check the many countries such as Saudia Arabia, Iran, etc or anyone into sharia law (aka BH) to understand that adultery is indeed a crime to them.

Hey this is Nigeria where u will go to life in prison for murder and no jail for cheating on your husband.


and this man is ready for jail,
again, pls educate yourself, some countries have the DEATH PENALTY (stoning) for cheaters, which is worst, than jail.

no he is not, he has asked for death but he will not get it easily, he will suffer psychologically and physically if found guilt

sadly, the woman we are all discussing chose OPTION 4: stay married and cheat on a mad man ...and paid dearly with her life

That is one in millions of women doing it today. And she is not dead because she cheated, she is dead because someone probably killed her illegally. the law will run its course.

MRBrownJ:
any WRONG act is not acceptable, whether cheating or murder.



we often read on NL of many that are gladly committing suicide because they got dumped by their partner, so i guess to some, yes it must be.

Seriously? Cheating and murder are now criminal offence? To educate you, cheating is not a criminal offence in law. Murder is a criminal offence in law.

Any man that think he will physically abuse his wife for cheating on him should be ready for jail. Remember no jail on earth for cheaters, but jail is there for abusers and Murderers.

A woman can stay in her marriage and endure bitterness or get out of the marriage to cheat or get of the marriage through divorce. All these three options are legal.

fancyupage:
thanks for stating your position with civility.

thanks for stating yo own position with civility.

With the latest announcement of subsidy removal, I am still struggling to understand why the government is still fixing the price. If it is a free market then the government should hand off price fixing.

It laughable to see the government agreed that oil marketers can source forex from black market to meet forex demand....Is that not a fact that Naira has been technically devalued?

Policy inconsistency is the watch word of this government.

To people questioning why Ronke dated Kayode (It is still an allegation), I will like to say the same question should be asked of Lekan who impregnated another woman.

What is good for goose is good for gander. If men can flirt around, why can't the women?

The best marriage is to be faithful to each other but I am writing this to point to the fact that if a man feels manly to cheat, the woman can feel womanly to cheat too.

To those saying the reason a woman should not cheat, is so that she does not bring a bastard into the family......Sex does not mean pregnancy in 21st century unless you wish to. There is something called contraceptive.

My conclusion is that, men should always treat their wives with respect to earn it too. Bear in mind that she is human, she has sexual and sensual desire too and if you deny her the way that satisfies her, she has one of the three options; To live with bitterness and the unfulfilled marital life or to help herself by seeking what she need elsewhere or to divorce.

Why do men cheat?
Why do women cheat?
