Abeg.. I've to adhere as a matter of necessity.

The worst news from the pilot I don't wish to hear is "ladies and gentlemen, all be calm we've lost radar signal

MikeB3:
I was actually skeptical yesterday when I read she's about burying the late dude in her hometown..... But I had my skepticism cleared now when I saw the letter the father addressed to his father in law however Senator Oduah did a massive mistake and she should do the needful and take the body to Warri for burial in his father's hometown.

The man sef is a woman cos I can't believe he was a former military senior officer.

How dare a woman conduct a funeral service on a child when the biological father is alive? If I am the man in question, Stella Oduah should be ready to tell the world the true father of the boy that day.

Insolence! Intimidation of the highest order

Stella Oduah and her father are shameful for indulging in this kind of attitude. Burying another man child who's alive in his compound.

We know how we women brainwash our children against their fathers when we divorce them and the man here might even have let Stella Oduah enjoy the company of the young man while alive. It is imperative she send the dead boy back to his biological fathers house.

I'm not supprised.

Innoson has never occured to me as a car manufacturing company but a car part compilation company. Hence the reason for reliance on forex to import the parts to be coupled...

let's not embrace dependency, we need real productions!

Before you quote me, bear in mind that i'm not tribalistic, this is channelled at all Nigerians..

Let me help your ignorance.

TOYOTA CAMRY is a Japanese model.

It might interest you that only engine is formulated and made by Toyota Japan. Every other parts from radio, tyre, glasses, battery, spark plugs etc are manufactured by different companies.

Motor corporation are known to couple vehicles made according to their specifications

lol u r very very wrong, that forgone was used erroneously. As much as you claimed to pass ur Economics am sure u must av managed to get E8 in English language lol ;Dlittle wonder, u used forgone in place of forgo. Just swallow ur pride and do the needful. Forgone alternative as defined by you in economics is right but forgone as used in that context is a solecism... yet u're still claiming to be right. Lol, well I shouldn't blame u anyway . I will only judge u if I know your Alma mater.

You sounding cynical and petty. No need exchanging intelligent views with you.

Let me try harder if only it will sink.

There's nothing like forgo in economics when dealing with array of choices.

Read my post, I spoke in economic terms not English writing. Get sense.

kaziblake:
And your father is useful..

I'll take this as a slap on the wrist. I won't be nice next time

Ghost our useless governor needs another round

jaybillionaire:
lol "... if I decided to forgone nairaland" hahahahahahahahaha did I just hear u say FORGONE? . Now you judge, who is the illiterate?

In economics wants are arranged in scale of preference. This simply means that priorities are attended first using the concept of opportunity cost which is commonly known as FORGONE alternative.

Read my post again, I said there were hundreds of social media platform other than nairaland I could join. If you have passed your fundamental economics you should have known I've use economics terms to drive home my point.

So my dear, Forgone means I can sacrifice nairaland to be on Facebook.


#I still believe you're the unintelligent one here

jaybillionaire:
when children talk, one shouldn't be surprised, if not for him ur likes wouldn't be on this medium expressing yourself . Having read the comments so far, but none of your likes have even commended the owner of the medium through which you can't do without everyday. All of your likes, using scathing and derogatory remarks to bring down Seun and his colleagues. If the so-called Zuckerberg had people with your level of horizon around him in the days of little beginning, he might not have gotten to where he is today. Instead of you to appreciate the talents we have in Nigeria, you rather pour expletives and esoteric whatnot on them. Perhaps you think the Facebook mogul jst became gargantuan overnight. I just decided to drop a missive for your likes on this medium, am sure you got the message and am sure your likes are reading as well . Seun and his colleagues , you guys are the simply the best, pls continue, am sure you'l get to that Olympian height.

The joke is on you. You're so uptight to notice the sarcasm.

... But you respond like an illiterate. There are hundreds of social medium if I decide to forgone nairaland.

TonyeBarcanista:
Seun, when will you tour America to reciprocate the goodwill of Mark Zuck?

Who knows Seun?


You might even be surprised the compound he stays the children know him as "is it that uncle that is always use to ples computer?"

Senator with Swag.

Op, 24-27 years female virgin for Nigeria?



Check the covent

xynerise:
I love seeing two young partners. Not one old and one young.


Congrats to you!

Look well, e fit be parents dey sponsor

AlphaHandMaiden:
My sentiments exactly!



Cc. Freshvine.
There is nothing wrong with wanting to marry someone with whom you have the same cultural values but Unless one can trace their bloodline back to Amadioha or whoever is the main character in their culture's creation story and confirm that there has been no form of 'mixing' whatsoever, any talk of being "pure bred igbo" or any claims of ethnic or tribal purity is well.... quite laughable!.

Cultures that want to preserve their bloodlines or have a pure breed have been known to marry within the same family with a lot of inbreeding... ie. Between Cousins, and even siblings!

In most nigerian cultures you cant even "cut eye" for your hot 3rd cousin without you having to sacrifice goat and bath in the market square to appease the gods and cleanse your family of the curse your roving eye has brought down on them!

Development started in the early 80s and migration and integration among tribes began. It is not as if this started 200 years ago so finding an igbo man in the east and marrying same is not a big deal.

Have you heard an igbo man marrying a yoruba woman in 1914?

Inter tribal marriage began in the 80s with most families still not accepting it nowadays for the children.

thorpido:
Is your husband from the same village as yours?

Anambra + Imo collabo

I married igbo cos I wanted pure breed.

Una no dey take eye see motor wey Park for occasion or car wash.

Ishilove:
Yep, advice on what kind of school to enroll my children.

Lol. Ishi nsogbu.

Stop fighting the men, you can't win this fight.

Read through my submissions, I've profer solution.

Look at the problem from unbiased perspective not from feminist angle

Ishilove:
How old am I? Definitely older than you.

Who made them enemies? Abi you're the one who brought about the enmity? There's a faulty foundation like people have pointed out, but all you and your school of thought are screaming is "beg them!!".

I bet you even want the grieving widow to call them for a peace meeting.

With this attitude, you'll be a regular visitor on this board seeking for advice when you've done the needful

Ishilove:
I understand, but this is a matter of death. Someone has died. Do you bear grudges with a dead person?

How old are you sef?

Both families are not in talking terms and that's make them ENEMIES.

DO you expect your enemies to commiserate with you over a loss or they're expected to mock you?

Without genuine reconciliation, enmity continues.

Ok by your standard, they should call in to apologize, attend the burial and continue the enmity?

The OBA of Lagos is a Muslim, the ooni of ife is a Christian.

Thank you-my mum was working before we encouraged her to come and assist us and leave every weekend. This was after trying three maids unsuccessfully.

Please advise on how to convince a mourning woman to call a family that does not care about her and family to ask about the welfare of her daughter's husband family.

You husband hold the ACE. Talk to him and promise him that henceforth you'll love and respect his decision as the head of the home. Massage a man ego and he'll let you control his life.

After winning his assurance, plead with him to Wade into the family issues of both Inlaw. Tell him it is weighing you down as you cannot stay in a loveless environment. Remember, consistently remind him that you are married into his family (forget whichever house you occupy right now in the city) and by extension his parents are now your parent. Tell him you love and respect them very much and would want peace to reign between families.

Your husband will talk to his mother. If he wins over his mother I tell you this war is over. Your people don't even need to reach out to them, your husband people will do that.

You see this fight.... It is a cold war between your mum and his mum. Men no get time to count error but can easily be manipulated by their wives to be on their side during disputes like this.

Twinkleme:
Thank you-I use to think i had a good relationship with the family because I call most of them and I visit from time to time. Please advise how you convince a woman who lost her husband to communicate with her daughters family members who do not even greet her when they visit and did not even commiserate with her at her husband's death?

If you win your husband love, leave him with his family. He knows what to do. As it stands now he's with his family on this and you're the interloper.

You can keep going on and on looking for cheerleaders to demonize your husband and his family.

Keep looking for sympathy instead of begging your husband until his entire family boycott your father funeral. Inlaws in some customs pay condolence homage to their other bereaved Inlaws except it ain't obtainable in your tradition.

Ishilove:
If I could like your comment thousands of times, I would. Hers is the only realistic comment so far.

Her brother-in-law came but did not greet her mother, a mourning widow, yet they are saying 'ignore their immature behaviour and show them love'.

I hope they will do same if they were in her shoes

What you are seeing is the consequences of a faulty foundation. Be concerned on how to solve the issue that brought about "all the hate signs" not addressing the elements

The government is alarmed with the synergy between the south east and South South and these has translated with the recent working together of Avengers and IPOB pursuing same interests.

What the government is doing is Sponsoring pseudo propaganda to weaken the two groups and cause division so that the cohesion can be broken.

Firstly they started a with Nmadi Kanu agreeing to a backdown on his agitation for his release to spite Avengers, when that didn't go well they sponsored an Avengers splinter group and when it didn't fly, they empowered MEND to go after their brothers interest. The next was IPOB and that's exactly what they're doing with the group.

They just don't want any Ibo/ Niger Delta unity.

IPOB is still intact..... Those in diaspora are still behind their leader in jail

Horsesmouth:
The husband paid the dowry and her family took it.
The wife now belongs to the husband and his family.
Dont come and be saying rubbish here.

The husband did not pay the bride price. His father or a senior member of his family did. After that the wife was handed over to who paid the dowry.

Go and verify

xendra:
well-done you've said it all. people pay too much attention to things they could have just ignored to save themselves headache. as long as they did not come into your home to ruin things, na only face them dey carry and greetings them no dey answer, his parents don't call your parents and neither do yours call his, y complain?

She need to worry.

The girl parent handed over their daughter to the guy parent. If there's is love lost amongst the families... Marriage ending is in view

You husband is the head and he has the final opinion in your marriage... any further argument is the beginning of the end.

Learn a man's ego. Bruise it and he start hating you. It could snowball to family issues like what you just said.

How long had your mum being with you raising your kids. If she is stationary that means she has indirectly stop your husband family members from coming too and that can spark a cold war in both family.

Your husband family is the senior partner in this marriage so it is encouraged your family do reach out to them particularly your mother asking after your welfare from her in laws. It gives a sense of comfort and tension relaxation.

If the both family is fighting... I swear you're the centre of the problem. Look inward and settle with your hubby.

Start respecting his decisions. It is his home now not your family extension with how you do things over there

Nigeria men are impotent yet the population of Nigeria keep increasing in geometric progression

Mr Ibu should stop disgracing himself with his taste of fashion that doesn't suit him.
