That's a most irresponsible and a waste of national resources.

englishmart:
Nigerian government chasing shadows since 1197.

The Shadow is finally in the cage like a hopeless animal

This is good.

Since they want to show solidarity to Kanu by abstaining from their businesses the soldiers should help them stay solidarity with their shops locked for 3 months.

Foolish people

Facebook is USA and USA has zero tolerance for for terrorist unlike British government that's breaking record of shielding terrorists. Ipob is a terrorist group.

I hope some people are not blaming this on afonja

Cowards only good for mouth making

Now I know why some people don't regard Sowore's activism. He should be the one gathering proofs yo counter because the government are coming with loads of evidences to send Kanu away for life if not death sentence

If the kidnappers are from the south the DSS would have tracked them

PrinceOfLagos:
I believe he's alive and healthy

Buhari won't dare kill him because he knows the consequences

I heard the man that attempted to kill Mali President died in custody. MCafee committed suicide in prison custody recently.

Am not implying anything just thinking loud.

Hi all, I need your advice. I work for an online university that pays USD equivalent 230,000 as per today's aboki exchange rate. Now, just recently my immediate supervisor was sacked and replaced by an Indian lady who is making the work so difficult to the extent that I hate remembering work. I have been in this job for close to 5 years and I have never felt this bad about the job. Right now I feel like quitting and focusing on my other hustle, although this will mean halving my monthly income. Anyone with a similar experience to share, or advice to give?

Guy don't quit. Find a way to make up with her you too might end up becoming best of friends at the end, what is missing between you might be simple understanding.

9jah:
And fought you and all your western/African military for three years.

And cowardly absconded the war he initiated abandoning your people to be killed like termites, Kanu also did the same.

Coward people making mouth everywhere.

OfoIgbo:
Ohanaeze Ndigbo should also organise a media conference with invited media outlets such as Sahara reporters, Arise TV, BBC, Al Jazeera, CNN, Fox news, Jerusalem Post e.t.c.

This media conference should not have NTA , Dailypost present.

The IPOB lawyers can easily be convinced to only answer questions and interact with the media in this Ohanaeze-organised media session to analyse the unfolding of the case. IPOB lawyers should shun answering questions thrown at them from these government-approved media houses. It takes two to tango

The Igbo intelligentsia should be very proactive in countering such moves. It will take the shine off the government-manipulated media event.

That will be putting the ohaneze in a difficult stand with the government, they have to be diplomatic if they want a listening here form the government hence things will only get more complicated for Kanu

nairalandankrah:
There will be no trial

There's no connection in what you quoted with Kanu's case, it's only applicable to Sunday Igboho

kollinzgee:
When an Igbo man sets out to get something by all means he will get it.
Freedom is sure.

Just mouth and bragging nothing more.

OOzz:
Story!!

They have no right to do that. Igbos go converge for that court tomorrow. They won't do more than a dead rat

Will you be at the court or just be on nairaland monitoring the development?

You that know his family and slept in his bedroom, oya reveal the truth. I said he has never lied about his and his wife sicknesses you are saying he was visiting a doctor regularly as if going to the doctor is a sin when the church has its own hospital and encourages the best medical research. Even Kenneth Hagin (Papas pastor) wrote about his sons surgery. This is someone who has healed others from sickness.

Was Apostle Paul not sick? Was he not crying when his one of his assistants nearly died of sickness? This same Paul whose mantle healed people.

You can't expect a man of God sent to give hope to people standing on the altar and putting fear about sickness and disease in their heart.

By the way, I know a winners member who was completely healed from High blood pressure through faith and taking the blood of Jesus and serious prayers. I mean the person checks bp years after and the hospital and everytime it comes back the the bp is normal. Someone who couldn't do without taking drugs every single day.

Bishop ass liker, poor man

Buhari should seek out of court settlement with Kanu or Kanu should seek out of court settlement with Buhari. Are this people well at all?

Guy wake up and stop living in ignorance, no business nor investment is raising the numbers of millionaires and billionaires like cryprocurrency. Hundreds and thousands of people are making a living out of it all over the world, your CBN with all its opposition is launching one in October and revealed that several countries CBN are also embarking on the same project. I personally rakes money from cryprocurrency on a daily bases apart from my normal business.

If you don't know a thing try to learn about it rather than mocking it

Priceless007:
Hello Nairalanders,

It's a long story, but I'll try to keep it short and to the vital points. Please endure the length.

There's a girl i met at a theological college in where I was studying to become a clergyman and also learning a skill under the civil engineering department of the college. She was my junior in the course, as I was a year away from graduating from my first course, while she was just a fresher. She was always having issues getting through her courses and projects and would always ask for my assistance since I was the course rep in that department. It was forbidden to have any intimate relationship with your course mate or anyone in the college for that matter, the penalty would be expulsion. But unfortunately for me, out of sheer lust and seduction on her part, and gross indiscipline and lack of self control on my part, I got intimate with her and we ended up committing fornication during one of our semester vacations. And it just happened once, of which out of deep regret and remorse I confessed the matter to the college Admin when the next semester resumed. We were panelled, after which I was suspended, while she was expelled.

During this time I was learning a skill sponsored by the college, of which I use to get paid some weekly stipend. After I was suspended I was also stopped from continuing my apprenticeship, because I was not to associate with any of the students or lecturers in the school while my suspension lasted. So I was without a job and without a source of income since I wasn't yet mastered on the skill. The condition that was given to me to resume my studies and apprenticeship was that I should go and get married before I could come back to college, so as not to be tempted to repeat my error. But I wasn't ready for marriage whether financially or any other wise for that matter. So while I was contemplating my next move, this girl came to me that she was pregnant, that she needed us to go and see her parents. I told her I had no money neither was I ready to father a child at this point in my life. I pleaded she should give me time to think about what next to do. Two weeks passed, and I called her to enquire about her welfare but her number wasn't reachable, I decided to go to her place, but I was told she had travelled a week ago to go see her family. A week later, I received a call from a woman telling me she was the girl's mother, that her daughter came home with a pregnancy, and she asked me if I was responsible for the pregnancy, I answered her in the affirmative. She then asked when I was coming to see her family. I told her I wasn't sure about coming to see them that I needed to speak to the girl first. She said okay, then later that day the girl called me, and I told her to come back for us to talk deliberate on the way forward. When she came she told me her parents (who are by the way divorced) will not accept her nor the pregnancy without me coming to see them for marriage arrangements.

I explained to her I wasn't ready for any such thing, that I have a calling to answer and a course to finish, that what happened between us was just a stupid and careless mistake that has been as a setback for me to achieve my goal, and that I was ready to overcome the trials and get back on track, and I explained to her that before then I had neither dated nor been intimate with anyone for over seven years, and so any kind of relationship or marriage was not even in my nearest future plans, and besides, I didn't even have a job, not to mention having enough money to embark on a marriage plan. She said she would never accept such excuse, that I should look for whatever means to make sure I come see her parents before her pregnancy becomes obvious. She also said that she needed money to move her belongings back to Imo state where her family resides. I agreed to raise some money for her. I went to do some menial jobs and raised some money, about ₦20k, which I gave to her and she traveled back to Owerri. From then on her parents kept calling and pressuring me to come and see them for marriage arrangements. I told them I was going to come, but just to introduce myself to them as the person responsible for their daughter's pregnancy not for any marriage arrangements. But they disagreed, that if I wasn't ready to come for marriage that I shouldn't bother coming. I pleaded with them to give me enough time to look for money to come and see them, but they instead started threatening me with court cases and arrests, at one time they brought the girl and some soldiers to my family house and harassed my family members including my mother.

So I later traveled to Benin city to go look for money. After one week of my arrival in Benin, I lost my phone and I couldn't retrieve my number. I lost connection with them until I got back to Uyo where I got her phone number from a friend of hers. At this time, I was told that they came to my house several times with police officers claiming I raped their daughter and impregnated her then absconded. At this, I established contact with the girl again and she told me that I should not bother her that she wasn't in the mood to talk to me, I kept calling her but she often ended up abusing me or we often times ended up in quarrels, so I left her alone for sometime.

Two weeks ago I related the matter to one of my distant uncles, who advised me to gather some money and go see her, I called her and told her I wanted to come and see her before she puts to bed, which is expected to be sometime next month (August). But she told me that she still stands by what her parents had said, if it's not for the marriage issue that I should not come, that I should rather send her the money I would use in coming so she can use it to buy the baby clothing and buy some hospital requirements before she puts to bed. I called her parents and they told me the same thing, and said if I don't come for the marriage agreement before she puts to bed, that after she's delivered of the baby I should forget ever coming, and should never mention that I have a child anywhere not to mention coming to claim it ever in the future. And that I should just forget about her and the child.

The issue now is this, I am a bit frustrated because I seem to have lost everything at the moment because of this issue; my calling, the skill I was learning is gone, I have no job aside the menial jobs I do at construction sites which isn't available regularly. Now the little I have saved so far, I am contemplating on whether to use the money to pay for my skills training and continue with it and start my life afresh and forget about her, the child, and her parents, or use the money to support her in her hospital requirements for her delivery. Because I don't want to be seen as abandoning her when she is in this condition, and I also don't want to give up on the child, though I'm not capable of taking care of the girl and the baby right now, and probably, I might end up getting married but not under my present circumstances. I know I've made a grave mistake and this is the consequences for not being true to myself and my calling, and I deeply regret it, and I've suffered for it in any way I can possibly imagine, but I also need to put my life back in order, because right now I'm so devastated that I'm contemplating terrible alternatives to survive the storm, I'm at a very critical moment of my life and I just feel like giving up on life altogether. Please I need your help and advice on this issue. Thanks.

PS. Please if anyone is willing to teach me any skill, I would be very grateful and willing to learn.

The first mistake you made was going to report the matter to the college admin, those people has no mercy in their dictionary, they don't know the definition of mercy, they bring hash judgement on offenders. Is not that am encouraging what you did with the lady but some things are better handled privately, do you know the secret sins committed by the same people you reported yourself to? Some times we bring hard time upon ourselves and we blame it on God.

My advice, don't bother yourself over the lady and her family for now if she's not ready to reason with you. Concentrate on sorting yourself out for now, your issue with her and the baby can be resolve later in the future. Guy go and make money and make it big, when you make money they will come begging you with the child later in the future. Try your hand on cryprocurrency while you learn your skill and try every other legit things that can make you rich.

Good luck

My fianceé anger issue is worrisome to me. ones she has a bad day, I will get my own share at home. I have begged her all i need in this marriage is togetherness, peace (she jokingly calling me Mr. peace of mind).

She just graduated and we are staying together for 2months now. She can be very sweet and hardworking, caring, can clean, arrange the house. I don't expect her to be this all good cos NOBODY is perfect, but her anger issue a big turn off.

When her Project supervisor was purposely frustrating her, and told her he will not accept her work and she will not defend (it was sorted out later) . I tried to talk and advise her she angrily walked out of my car in the middle of the road.

That night she wasn't talking to me and i started a call n went to the parlor, she came and was asking whom i was talking to and i said my guy, she queried but why did i go to the parlor, she flung our engagement ring away without knowing whom i was talking to (not cheating or calling any girl) she makes rash decisions when angry. like She can scatter our 2weeks plans cos of a small provocation.

I Love her but the anger issues is killing.

Becareful what you love. Certain partners you mustn't tie the nut with; an abusive partner, a violent partner and a partner that has serious anger issue (everyone get angry at one point or the other but a partner with an excessive anger is a danger).

I have been in a relationship with my girlfriend since September 2019. I intend to marry her.
The problem is that, I don't desire her sexually. Any intimate touch from her feels like the touch from a blood sister. Very uncomfortable.
She is a strict Christian with a policy of no premarital sex. So we have never had sex except for occasional kissing and romance which I sometimes initiate.
However, since January this year, I lost sexual attraction towards her and I avoid even simple touches. In fact, last Sunday we were walking down the street and when she placed her arms round my shoulder, I stylishly evaded it. I don't feel like this towards every other woman.

I'm currently not seeing any other lady but I have had sexual flings with two different ladies including an ex.

Question is: Is sexual attraction/desire neccesary for marriage? Is it normal not to feel sexually attracted to your partner? Can this be a basis for break up as I fear it might persist in marriage and make me cheat on her.

Religion and deceit. A policy of no premarital sex and she's doing kissing and romance. You don't want to eat a food but you are having a taste of it. What's sex in its actual definition, is it just the act of inserting the dick into the pussy hole? No, sex is all inclusive, the kissing, the romance and everything.

This so called holy sisters and brothers should quit this hypocrisy. Why taste the stew and avoiding the rice and the meat saying you are fasting. Enjoy sex if you want to have it and abstain totally if you must observe your policy.

Hmmmmn, Vigil, ceaseless prayers and street work for Trump by the same people sent him out of the white house to the street, Maduka be wise.

The PDP miscreants and keyboard warriors will not see this it's Tinubu matter they will put for head like gala. Tinubu don't subject anyone to this kind of treatment

Preciousgirl:
This is called dokono in Ghana and it's better than all Nigeria meals I tell u

My husband, a Yoruba man always confesses
that my food is something else

You just need something make you thread and I guess you got it. But let me just help clear your ignorance, Nigeria have the best of varieties of delicacies in Africa not just West Africa and Ghana of course has the worst.

We Igbos also have Yoruba ,Benin and itshekiri slaves among us.

We also have Benin and Yoruba related names in our Igboland

Osu I know you must mention Yoruba. Omo eru lasanlsan. Thank God for Reno, this revelation we go a long to help in properly placing you.

And the Igbos are erroneously seeing the Yorubas as their arc enemies. I think most of them need this history.

You attended the church for years how much of him and the family do you know? You can only have a ground to argue with me if you know him as much as I do or more. I don't discuss with crowd members because the more they see the less they know.
