Am a supporter of PMB, but when it comes to Herdsmen issue i always reserve my comment due to his reluctant attitude towards boldly addressing the herdsmen/farmers crisis as in the case of boko haram and ND militants.

After starting a new relationship, do you start spending every moment of every second with your new flame and as result start neglecting your friends?

Or do you still maintain the balance between your friendships and new relationship?

On a typical Friday night, who would you rather spend time with?

(a) Definitely my friends. I have the most fun when I’m with them.

(b) My babe is the only person I want to chill with.

(c) Depends on who is available and what their plans are.

(d) My best option would be to start the evening with everyone and end it just with my babe.

GEJ met same problem as much as Buhari did, the only difference is that he didn't take the nation hostage because of it..

or maybe he didn't care to knw the cause of those problems nd deal with the culprit

The prime purpose of this piece is to examine the Tiv hospitality
against the background of the many misconception sold to the wider society by some western scholers,writers and even by some ethnic groups surrounding Tivland.

Despite the attempts made by some latter European
writers,anthropologists and ethnographers to redeem the image of the Tiv already set ablaze by their anxiety to penetrate Tivland and to
establish alien rule in an era of imperialism,based their
understanding of the Tiv people on earlier 19th Century European
accounts.

Rev.Fr.Dr. Ushe Mike Ushe in his masterpiece titled, “Kpor of Tiv
culture”(2010),elucidates,…the gross misconception about Tiv
hospitality in pre,Modern and Post-modern times.

Some of these misconception are:

1.That Tiv are hostile and aggressive set of people who like fighting with their neighbors in order to expand their territorial boundaries.

2.That the Tiv do share their wives with visitors in the name of hospitality.

3.Third, that adultery and
fornication are not sins in Tiv Religion.

Those who are either biased or prejudiced about the Tiv people have blown these and other related misconception out of proportion.

However,we could ask: Are the Tiv
people really hostile?

Is adultery as well as fornication not sinful in Tiv Religion or society at large?

Do the Tiv people actually share
their wives with visitors?

Dr.Ushe (2010) emphatically expresses this thus:…one important fact to note here is that Tiv are vocal,open minded
people,curious,inquisitive and practical,especially when they are
unjustly maltreated,subjugated or when they want to project their
view.

Paul Bohannan and Laura Bohannan (1953) confirm this, thus: ….the Tiv are the most practical and unsuperstitious people that we had met on the vast continent of Africa….They are a group with an independent turn of mind,and are the most ethnocentric people in the
world.

In Tiv society fornication and adultery are known as sex taboo. Dr. Ushe (2010) explain…sex is a sacred thing and if there is a breach of its sacredness,the consequences are grievous.

Suemo (2001) opines that fornication and adultery are tabooed acts in Tivland because: …Tiv people accept sexual intercouse as a natural need that is strategic to human life…But the rate at which a Tiv man looks at
someone caught in the very acts of fornication and adultery shows how criminal the acts are.

In Pre-modern Tiv society,punishment for
committing such offences ranged from severe corporeal punishment to contempt for the preson involved. If such persons swore “Swem”it was believed that the would fall sick,have a swollen stomach,severe headache and subsequently die.

Suemo’s presentation above indicates that the Pre-colonial,colonia and even post-colonial Tiv society frowns at sexual aberrations like
fornications, incest,homosexuality,lesbianism etc.
The Tiv are always forthright in attacking defaulters who indulge in these acts. These deviant behaviors are considered by the Tiv people to sexual aberrations. Those who indulge in any of those sex taboos was required to make some required purification rituals so as to be cleansed.

In Tiv society,the practice of hospitality is highly emphasized.

The Tiv people have a strong philosophy of solidarity as “Ya kwagh na wan
igban”(eat and share with your brother), they also believed that this philosophy can only be strong when people generously care for others.
The Tiv gesture of kindness and receptibility towards visitors has
often been misconstrued. But the fact still remains that Tiv people
hold in high esteem the virtue of : welcoming strangers,protecting
visitors (u eren a mba van nya dedoo), feeding the hungry (u naan mba
ijen i ker ve kwaghyan), housing the homless (u taren ior ikyar ki
yaven),among others. But it must be noted that Tiv people do not joke with thier wives talkless of sharing them consciously with others. It is common to hear a Tiv man say, “U keren kwase me tambe u ken ken”(If you have lostful relationship with my wife I must bewitch you).

During the Pre-colonial times,there were several cases of fornications and adulterers in Tiv society who were cursed,bewitched or even
killed. If the people could be so brutal against themselves for being promiscuous,what would one expect when it concerns an outsider?

In generations past,the Tiv people were strong warrior tribe. Through war conquests they aquired many slaves,among which were women. When a
Tiv man had a visitor,he would sometimes send one of the female slaves to keep him company. The visitor who was not resident there would think that the woman was the Tiv man’s wife. But if the slave
eventually got pregnant and gave birth,the child became a slave by
birth this mean more hands at farm. Must of the slaves were later sold to the whitemen.

I rest my pen.

There is nothing suspicious abt hear beating while tryin to make love. Its normal.

It is also a physiology behind the erection of the penis and the clitoris.

The heart beats nd pump blood all over the body nd filled the tiny veins in d penis nd clitoris making it to be erect.

That explain why you breath out deep wen you ejacula.te nd then ur erection become weak.

Hope i hav answered u

Which stupid forgery? Anyway it is not about rushing to court but rather about winning!! The chance of the FG winning this case is zero!! The 2011 senate rule dies with the seventh senate!! If you said the current 2015 senate rule is forged then you will have to come out with the original!!

what a silly way of commenting. When did d 8th NASS amend d their standing orders before they did their election in d senate?


D standing orders is only amended when all the officials are voted. Nt wen somebody amended it to help him occupy his desire seat.

omenka:
A crime of forgery was alleged to have been committed and all you can think of is "executive interference".

Why do you people keep supporting all that is bad and unjust

Months back i predicted that, if at all saraki goes down, d nxt step will be the re-introduction of d forgery of senate standing orders.

Na sign to tell u say dem don dey live Large.... After my 1st marriage I lost weight sadly

yea... Sorry fr ya weight loss...

Nna I don't understand why most people become fat after their marriage. I know say as man pot belly is almost for sure but this kind over big shape for women i no fit comprehend.

Someone told me that for some women, it might be their hormones conflicting while some react to contraceptives and for daddies dem, it may be as a result of too much Gulder intake...
