Factcheck0001: Good afternoon everyone, just like the topic says there are majorly two things no man can hide no matter how smart he is and how codes he is.
The first thing is POVERTY
No matter how good at management a man is, he can never hide poverty because with time it will rear it's ugly heads and become very obvious.
Any man going through financial difficulty, no matter how well he wants to hide it some things will start becoming visible. You don't need a soothsayer to tell you a man is going through hell if he carries bushy hair, faded clothes, worn out slippers.
You can just sit down at a junction and pretend as if you are making calls then mere looking at some people you know they are going through a lot.
That brings us to the saying that poverty is very hard to maintain
The second one is WEALTH
No matter how well you can hide things, wealth or affluence will show. I didn't give examples when I talked about POVERTY because I don't want to sound inhumane but let me give you a typical example of my friend who once tried to hide wealth.
He served in the north and got retained by a rich northerner who deals with trailer, he was treated well and after like 5 years the man died and our friend was well settled so he relocated to south west.
We normally call him coded due to his lifestyle of trying to hide everything, when he came he established block industry, boutique and poultry but he will still wear cheap clothes.
What gave him out was his fresh looks, nice perfumes and wristwatch always looking cool. He hid it to d extent that even his farm manager had a car already but the CEO is hoping around on bike.
Last last this guy had to buy Toyota big daddy because even the poorest in his clique was using something better, last last we all saw his house and it was one in town, he couldn't just hide it.
DyshApp: UK-based Nigerian woman, Uloma Nwogu, has recounted a distressing experience involving the father of her children, whom she claims reappeared after years of absence and attempted to use her as a route into the United Kingdom.
Uloma revealed in a post on Facebook that she relocated to the UK two years ago with her children after raising them alone for six years. She described the journey as both physically and mentally draining, stating that the stress of single-handedly raising children in a foreign land led to her developing high blood pressure.
According to Uloma, the children’s father resurfaced in January this year through a Facebook message, expressing a sudden desire to reconnect with the children.
After a series of conversations, he proposed to be included in her visa application and, in return, offered to reimburse her for the children’s school fees from the past six years.
DyshApp: Popular comedian, Adesokan Adedeji Emmanuel a.k.a Shank Comics recounts how his father switched from being a Muslim to a Christian.
He made this known while speaking to a fan he met in the United States.
The fan had informed him that he thought he were Muslim like himself, however, Shank noted that he is a Christian.
However, he clarified that he has a Muslim name, Saheed, and his father used to be a Muslim.
He noted that his father had converted on the day a church gave him food while he was famished.
Shank said …
“My daddy was a Muslim. Then there was one time he was fucking hungry then one church gave him food, then he became a Christian. I swear to God, my dad is so cheap.”
But are you not surprised they occupy every lucrative position in the country. Be it civil service or MDAs. This is the inherent contradiction we are talking about. Inequality in resource control and appointments.
More reason we should be worried. They occupied sensitive position without capability
After all the chunks of recommendations I got from this thread.
I first decided to sell as scrap and it was being priced cheaply. The highest offer I got was 700k which was pretty annoying. The new Kareem I met advised I changed one sensor like that and for the first time in almost a year, the car moved fairly well. Long and short, I sold it for 1.8M yesterday. Quite below the amount I've spent but who cares? Something that was being priced as scrap for 500k, 700k? I feel so happy I'm finally over this depression. I met a nairalander by the way who sold his Civic 08 for me and it's been an amazing experience ever since. God bless Nairaland.
Avoid "Kazeem" if you want to enjoy your new ride. Our maintenance culture is bad
LawWithEbele: LEAKED S.£.X TAPE: Let’s Talk Law, Not Just Morals
The internet is boiling over the leaked s*x tape of an Anambra man and woman, who were allegedly married to other people. While opinions are flying everywhere, “They’re divorced!” “No, they’re still married!”, let’s assume they’re both still married for purposes of this discussion.
Now let’s face the real question: Is adultery a crime in Anambra State?
The answer is NO. Let me break it down:
What is adultery?
It’s when a married person has voluntary sexual intercourse with someone who is not their spouse.
But is it a CRIME? No.And here’s why: A crime is an act made unlawful by a written law, punishable by fine or imprisonment.
In Anambra State, and the entire southern Nigeria, no written law criminalizes adultery.Shocking? Maybe. Unjust? That’s debatable.But that’s the LAW.
So while adultery might be morally scandalous, it is not legally punishable as a crime in Anambra.
However, in some Northern Nigerian states where Sharia law applies, adultery is a criminal offence, and it carries heavy penalties.
Bottom line?Adultery is a fact if successfully proved could led to divorce but not for jail in Anambra State. Meanwhile, I have written a blog article on adultery and divorce. https://www.elawfirm.ng/adultery-and-divorce-in-nigeria/
So don’t be misled, morality is not always the same as legality.
What do you think? Should adultery be criminalized across Nigeria? Or should it remain a civil (and personal) matter?
Let’s talk in the comments.
I am Ebelechukwu Aroh-Nwoka, your family and property lawyer.
Wakatumbit: I've made some previous posts about how my wife threatens me with leaving our marriage everytime we have small issues (I didn't post it with this account). She always threaten to leave anytime we have misunderstandings, not even only misunderstandings, even when we are having normal conversations and someone refers to maybe a bad marriage experience, she always says if it's her she will leave. I've spoken to her about it several times, I have even spoken to her family about the issue but it keeps repeating itself.
She has this kind of mentality that she can leave the marriage at any time I do something to her and she repeats it every time, the last one was during an outing when we had a misunderstanding, even before hearing my own side of the story, she said she already tired of the marriage and wants to leave, so I told her to go if she wants. The next morning, she came to wake me up and told me she doesn't want to do again that she wants to leave, she said she'll call her people and I should call my people. I said fine.
I told my family about it, and they supported me because a woman can't threaten me with marriage after one child.
Another thing my wife does is that she constantly compares me to other men, telling people I don't provide for my family, I don't take care of her, to the extent her friends are telling her that if a man doesn't provide for his woman, then he's pushing her out to meet other men.
In regards to the issue of providing, when we met, things were going very well, it was just the two of us and I had money at the time, I took her on vacation, booked flights for her, bought her hairs, a new phone and all. But now we have a child, added responsibilities, and money isn't as it used to be before but one thing I never do is to starve my family.
Last year I made close to 20m but I didn't see the money, not because I'm an extravagant spender but because of family expenses, I can't even explained what happened to the money aside the fact that I bought a car.
I opened a business for her with almost 3 million, the business crumbled, she doesn't want to do anything, she stays home all day just pressing phone. If I don't have any money at all she can't support me, she calls me for everything, even to as little as salt in the house.
She started comparing our marriage to when she was single, that she used to wear the lastest clothes and buy the lastest hair, and now she's married she doesn't get those things forgetting those where the thing I used to do for her when there was enough money.
This whole thing has made me tired of the marriage and I don't feel like continuing it any more, I've told her to call her people since she doesn't want to continue the marriage so they can return the bride price. I just want to focus on my life
Let her go. She married for the wrong reasons

Wakatumbit: For a family of 4 I spend close to 200k monthly on just feeding, we can no longer buy food stuffs the house because even if u take like 150k to buy food stuffs, u won't see anything.
I want to know if others are spending more or less and if there's a way around it.
Sparsy: Ambulance Carrying Corpse Involved in Accident
A tragic acc!dent occurred when an ambulance transporting a deceased person for burial was hit by a speeding trailer. The incident has left the corpse badly damaged, sparking widespread shock and sadness.
Glimpsetv: A traveler has shared an encounter with a Nigerian police officer who demanded a bribe despite the suspension of the Electronic Central Motor Registry (e-CMR) policy. The incident occurred along the Benin Bypass, where the officer reportedly asked the travelers to either pay ₦5,000 or provide 5 litres of fuel.
This happened despite the recent suspension of e-CMR enforcement, as previously announced by the Inspector-General of Police (IGP).
You may recall that the Nigerian Police had earlier announced that enforcement of the controversial e-CMR would begin on July 29, 2024. Under the policy, vehicle owners without the e-CMR would have faced sanctions.
However, the announcement was met with widespread criticism. The Nigerian Bar Association even issued a one-week ultimatum, demanding that the police reverse the decision.
In response to public outcry, the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, Ph.D., NPM, ordered the immediate suspension of the proposed enforcement originally scheduled for July 29.
In the now-viral video shared by the traveler, the police officer is seen ignoring the travelers’ pleas and openly demanding a bribe of ₦5,000 or 5 litres of fuel from those without the e-CMR. The footage later shows the travelers handing over cash, which the officer takes and carefully counts.
During the exchange, one of the travelers asked the officer, “What’s the problem?” The officer replied, “e-CMR.” The traveler responded, “e-CMR is illegal,” to which the officer said, “You can make a call.” The traveler replied that he had no one to call and then asked the officer what he wanted them to do. The officer answered, “5 litres of fuel.”
The traveler pointed out, “There’s no fuel station around here. Where do you expect us to get the fuel?” The officer replied, “You can just go and get it.” Realizing the officer was asking for money, the traveler asked, “How much is 5 litres of fuel?” The officer responded, “₦5,000.”
The travelers pleaded to pay ₦3,000 instead. One of them explained that they were returning from their grandmother’s burial and that ₦3,000 was all they could afford. The officer, however, showed no interest in their story.
As the video continues to circulate widely on social media—especially on X (formerly Twitter)—many Nigerians have expressed outrage over the officer’s actions and called for accountability.
