Pharaoh4rin:Children survive, yes. But they remain the responsibility of the parents. You just can't wish them away, hoping that the universe will take care of them. |
Calitoscassius:No you didn't. I'm yet to see the sense in being vile to strangers. I do not live in a fairy-tale world of butterflies and flowers so of course I know that human beings will not always be pleasant. I'm just wondering what it is about this couple that ignites hateful comments. Are they murderers? Are they thieves? Normal human beings would wish them well or just ignore them. But to constantly spit venom about people you don't know and will never even meet is crazy. |
Calitoscassius:Fair enough. But I'm curious about what the couple has done to warrant such bile. |
Calitoscassius: CyrusVI: dibunotion: CoronaVirusPro: Pootle: kheny12: efighter:All these bile just because 2 adults have decided to date each other? |

johnog4sure:Mr. Man, if you want to ignore your wife or walk out on her go right ahead. Na you sabi. But your children are your responsibility regardless of how you feel about their mother. You don't bring children into this world just to "ignore" them because you need to prove a point. Your anger is valid but your children should not be punished as a result. |

anonimi:I don't know much about your internal wrangles, but I guess the same logic applies. |
folake4u:Let alone the East. Southern nko? My logical half is Zimbo. His own mother (may her soul continue to rest in eternal peace) was on her 3rd marriage at the time of her death. In her defence, the 2nd husband left her a widow. His full sister (my SIL) divorced her husband and remarried the following year. At first I thought she'd just stay focused on her kids and try to heal and all that-- For where? One minute I'm talking to a divorced woman, the next minute someone is talking about wedding plans. She didn't even blink. Did it sans emotions. A true redpiller that one. ![]() Kenyan women do divorce but she can put up a fight if she believes you're worth it. God help you if she believes you have no usefulness -- one of you will pack and go. We generally don't carry marriage on our heads because the focus is on who you marry rather than the marriage in itself. Having said that, we do have a few instances of girls who get married purely for validation or pressure from family, church and friends, and I notice it's more prevalent among extremely religious folks (both Christian and Muslim) and rural folks. |

Gerrard59:Please preach. Many Nigerian men love using the term "lazy" to describe other African men and I've always wondered why. What are these indicators of "laziness", I wonder? You go to different African countries and you see businesses running, real estate infrastructure coming up, citizens of these nations toiling day-in, day-out, yet some just decide that they're lazy because of what exactly? Do they think these other African men just wake up in the morning to play chess, eat, then retire to bed? All the import and export companies in these other countries, is it lazy men running them? I'll never understand some of your brothers to be honest. |
Oshokhai69:What are the indices of lazy men if I may ask? |
Fake statistics. Ain't no way Zimbabwe's divorce rate is 0.07% and Kenya's 0.06%. It's not strange to find Zimbabweans in particular who've been in 2 or 3 marriages before the age of 45. |

Klass99:You see what we have to put up with? Speaking of a coup and assassination attempts, Ruto recently did certain reshuffles within the armed forces. These reshuffles were not even made known to the public. Who knows what rumour he may have heard that sparked the sudden reshuffles, promotions and demotions within the military? As a president would you sleep well after seeing some soldiers chopping knuckle with protesters despite being deployed to the streets to subdue them? You know you're doomed when your own soldiers are fed up with you. There's a prophecy about Nigeria by the late Sydney Elton which gives me a strong hope and comfort about my nation. His prophecy about Nigeria and Nigerians: “Nigeria and Nigerians will be known all over the world for corruption. Your name Nigeria will stink for corruption but after a while, a new phase will come a phase of righteousness. People from the nations of the earth will hold to a Nigerian and say, We want to follow you to your nation to go and learn righteousness.”Forgive me if I'm not as optimistic about some of these prophecies as you may be. Maybe hearing so many of them with none of them ever coming to pass has made me kinda lose faith in them. Let me just say, I never hold my breath waiting for prophecies (especially about my country) to be fulfilled. You have a lot more faith and hope for your country than I do for mine. Wishing you a wonderful week ahead! |
PS: I'm watching a crime documentary where two kids joined their stepmother to murder their own mother. I'm sitting here and thinking to myself, children are truly not worth the stress, one can live a happy and fulfilling life without them fa.Okay Klass99. I get it. You don't want kids. Haven't we had this discussion before? 😅 I love kids though. They can be a handful but I can also attribute much of my happy moments to the silly and not-so-silly conversations I have with them, the songs we sing together, the cuddles.... you know. I do know a lady who deliberately chose a similar path to yours but she takes care of her nephews and nieces. She seems happy too. I can't imagine my children ganging up against me to finish me. Chai! That's a typical case of "all weapons fashioned against you have prospered". A case of "surely misfortunes and cruelty have followed you all the days of your life". Really unfortunate to have your children turn against you to the degree of wanting you dead. Reminds me of a story I read in 2014 thereabout about a former Ministry of Lands employee who acquired vast property along the Kenyan coast (some legitimately) but he'd sell off the land acquired unscrupulously to unsuspecting buyers. He scammed people for many years and amassed a lot of ill-gotten wealth. When his 4 adult children didn't see much of that wealth trickling down to them, they decided to kill both their parents. They successfully eliminated their father, and forced their mother to go into hiding after a failed attempt at poisoning her. The woman recuperated while hiding from her children and was still under some form of protection programme when that story was being published. I remember jokingly telling my mum to sleep with one eye open. 😂 The interesting thing is that the children of that family were successful career men and women. One was a doctor in Spain or Italy or something like that. Another was a lecturer at some university in the UK. I don't remember the accurate details of the other two, but I remember thinking to myself; 1. How did 4 children unanimously agree to kill their parents? 2. How did the 4 children, living in 4 different countries successfully plan the execution of their father? 3. Who among the 4 children planted that seed of murder? 4. And how did he/she convince the other 3 to go along with it? To even think about it? I don't seem to recall all the fine details of the story but it left me with many questions. May my children never plan my execution. Iseee.... |
Klass99:Pardon me for the late response. It's been a real hectic week. Kenya has very few tribes--44, and that includes Kenyans of Asian, Arab and European descent. Despite having way fewer tribes compared to you guys, Kenya is home to diversity as well. We're not as homogeneous as South Sudan, Malawi or Botswana for instance. We have diverse looks and cultures. About the stereotypes associated with Ruto's people, particularly their men....Chai! ![]() 1. They're not renowned for exercising proper hygiene. Smelly armpits and mouth odour be the order of the day with them. ![]() 2. Then there's this talk about their inability to be romantic, especially when making sexual advances. There's this gist I used to hear about them -- that if a man from that community wants to have sexx with his wife, all he needs to do is tap her on the shoulder and say, "bring that thing here". 🤣🤣 Another one I heard was that the man would send his wife for something like a glass/cup of water and when she'd get up to get it for him, he'd put his leg across her way so she'd trip and fall, and while she's still in that "fallen" position, Ruto's tribesman will unzip his pants, lift up her dress/skirt and do the needful. 🤣🤣🤣 Another one-- they'd rather walk barefoot on hot coals than say "I love you". They cannot say it! They will not say it! They can write it, but will never say it. Their mouths lack the ability to pronounce those words. 🤣🤣 3. Another stereotype is that they love their cows more than their wives and children (who by the way are categorised as one entity 😂). A sick cow will be given priority over a sick wife or child. Of course all these are exaggerations said tongue in cheek, but you catch the drift. |
folake4u:Libras always be noticing guys. ![]() Is that why you notice yummy looking dark boys? Mbadiwe Twins. |
@Klass99, Your mentions are well noted. I'll get back to you. ![]() |
helinues:I don't know where you get your information from, eh? Whoever told you that the protesters were the same ones jubilating the appointments is a liar. You think this crop of Kenyan youth can be bought by a head of state bribing their tribesmen with ministerial posts? Those jubilating are mostly the older folks. Then we've got the usual crowd for hire comprised of hopeless idlers. Joho in particular is notorious for mobilizing crowds by dishing out money. Hasn't your "source" told you that the Gen-Zs halted the protests temporarily because they were infiltrated by goons hired by government? You think this is the end of it? Watch the space. Ruto is not sleeping either. He cannot afford to. A man who suddenly decided to do major internal reshuffles within the military knows he's a wanted man. I like how rattled he is. There's no peace for the wicked. Not a single peaceful night will Ruto ever have until he leaves office. |
Klass99:The thing pepper me die. Any time I file my personal and business tax returns and think of how all that money is being collected only to be squandered on meaningless dockets such as the Office of the First Daughter, I get really mad. Kenya is just as corrupt as Nigeria. Only difference is that Kenyans commit their corrupt practices with a serious, sort of "dignified" face while Nigerians are more crude with theirs. They do not even hide it. They joke about it and some even revel in it (and hailed as "sharp guys" ). Nigerians own their corruption. ![]() Kenyans on the hand can act all goody two shoes, will even be mocking pickpockets all the while siphoning money from your business in a "sophisticated" way. Same way they steal elections and then refer to themselves as a "model of democracy for Africa". Joke of the century. ![]() Those marathon runners are always winning but you don't wanna hear the stereotypes associated with their tribe. Let me stay civil....for now. ![]() Oh, and like you I'll be rooting for the African countries. I always find myself doing that during the FIFA World Cup tournaments as well. Leos are cool. They're never invisible. You must notice them as they're usually distinguished and command a lot of respect, naturally. True lions. ![]() My zodiac sign is Libra. Yeah. Yeah. I know. We're flowery bimbos, usually undecided, flirtatious....what else? ![]()
