Romance / Re: I Caught My Fiancée Cheating by Ftheophilous(m): 1:24am On May 19, 2019
Good friend. What advice do you want from us na.
You should be the one advising yourself. Can you
marry someone that cheated on you while in a relationship together? After you have asked yourself, then answer the question. You alone know what you want. Abi do you want us to be the one to tell you that once a woman cheats on her partner, she's 99.9℅ liable to do such again at any given instance, with of course a very solid, ground breaking backed up excuse?

Romance / Re: I'm Confused. I Need Help by Ftheophilous(m): 7:46pm On May 05, 2019
I don't feel like typing much o. But let me help someone's life. One fact about life is that you don't know the value of what you have until you lose it. The funny thing is that those that know this fact still value what they have less until they lose it - funny right? okay.

I have the utmost conviction that you, OP, have a mind that is easily swayed, that you have a mind that can be easily manipulated. Infact, am quite certain that why you are asking this question is because of your wanting of the lifestyle of those around you - This is bad. There is a difference between being very ambitious and being easily controlled by material gratifications.

You can't eat your cake and have it. You can't have everything.

That being said. Threaten him with separation. If he does not improve, then maybe he does not really like or love you, he just wants a smart and educated wife.

I can tell that you don't love him. Either you let him go or you learn to love him. Admiring someone does not mean you love them. You cannot learn to admire someone, it's something that 'just' comes, and as it 'just' comes, it goes that way also. You can learn to love, such love stays.

Choose what you want wealth or a good family. Though you are still very young to explore other options or atleast explore the other realm of life, but you can't really be too young a long as society allows.

Conclusuvely, figure out what you really want and don't be swayed by the lifestyle of other people (No two relationship is the same).

Romance / Re: Man Gives Lady N2k To Help Him Prepare Egusi Soup, She Did This by Ftheophilous(m): 6:44pm On May 05, 2019
Debramaye:
even if it's your girlfriend you'll leave small change for her knowing she's cooking for you and not inspecting everything that's like calling Someone a thief on top services she's rendering and about stove, I've never cooked on stove but from the looks of it I know it's a bad work around for someone who's not used to cooking on that thing, she even gave him back his money plus extra to show class, abeg I won't regret saying this but guys who do petty stuff like this are broooooookeeeeee, stingyyyyyyy and stupiiidddd especially when they know such can be done themselves without all that senseless involvement

I don't think you understood what I wrote. The guy bleeped up only because he went ahead to inspect the foodstuff she bought. That does not just scream stingy and stupid or broke, it also shows you the level of distrust he has for her (not necessarily to poison him, it could be financialwise). That's why I wrote that they may have a history she didn't see fit to include in her epistle.
Romance / Re: Man Gives Lady N2k To Help Him Prepare Egusi Soup, She Did This by Ftheophilous(m): 4:34pm On May 05, 2019
All you guys the at are hollering broke guy and stuff. The only mistake the guy made was to inspect the foodstuff while she was preparing the dish. Still, it might be because he did not trust her to manage money very well - you dont't know their history.

Mind you, 3k will prepare a sumptuous egusi soup as well as a stew.

Let me give you a breakdown.

Egusi = half derica #400

crayfish = #100

pepper = 20

okporoko = 50

Titus = #400

meat = #400

palm oil = ilarin #100

maggi = #20

onga soup = 10

vegetable = 50

Total = #1,550. balance. #450



If you use these ingredient, you will prepare confam! egusi soup.

OK.

Let's head to stew.

Tomatoes & pepper = #250

tomato paste = #50

maggi = #20

onions = #30

groundnut oil = #100

curry & thyme = #40

fish = 400

spice = 50

Total = #940. balance = #60

Total balance = #510

#510 should be more that enough for transport.


The 1k she added was to the orishirishi she wanted. If the guy wanted orishirishi, he would have given her more cause I kno that some people here are ready to counter.

FortuneDeGreat:
I'm sorry if you consider my comments an insult. But take it or leave it, there's a historical ties between the Igbos and binis, take it to the bank.
I think I understand ur misconception of my utterance
The Edo I am referring to is Edo state, formerly Bini kingdom.
I think you are talking about the Bini people( Edo people).

FortuneDeGreat:
Are you this daft and slow minded that you can't grasp a point, I told you and I repeat, neither Edo nor Niger delta is an ethnic group, they're just a political creation.

Talk of your own tribe which is esan and leave the binis to talk theirs.

Any people on earth has origin, if you're a bit confused on yours sorry, everyone isn't like you, some people know their origin, if you're unable to give a clear definition of your people's origin how then will you be able to talk of that of other people?

First you're not bini or Igbo or what's the fuss all for. In a layman's language - wetin concern you?

Bringing insult to a discussion that that is for trading knowledge.

In which part of my comment did I throw a shade of insult at you?

Well I don't like trading insults on nairaland because it seems very juvenile to me.

Maybe what I said about some Igbos claiming to be Edos struck a nerve...

Just so you know, I know my origin, and since you know yours, why don't you tell me.
Politics / Re: Igbo's Are Too Insulted In Nigeria by Ftheophilous(m): 11:46am On Apr 25, 2019
FortuneDeGreat:
Thanks, so next time try and specify and don't just call Edo a tribe, moreover your tribe and the Igbos have no link or historical ties, the Bini was the mention so exclude yourself ok?
I just understood something. Those of you claiming that Edo is close to the Igbos are obviously Igbos trying to dreg themselves with the Edos. That being said.
You want me to answer abi? okay I will, first tell me which part of Edo you are from. Meanwhile, let me educate you a little.

Yeah, The Edo I was referring to there is bini.

The great bini kingdom shares no tie whatsoever with Igbo. Any relationship that exist between Niger Delta and Igbo is as a result of the handwork of the colonists.

Even Onitsha that claim to be ascended from the great Bini kingdom were simply neighbours that lived within it environs and later travelled eastward.

know your history, better still ask men from your hometown who have seen it all.

Thank you.

Edo is not an ethnic group, it's just a political cum geographical structure, what's the name of your ethnic group cos I know there are many in Edo.
I am from Esan, on of the three major ethnic groups of Edo state. Some call us Ishan.

judging from your profile you are obviously a kid, we have some culture similarity with yoruba but there are more Igbos groups that claim ancesstry with the Benin
Who are you calling again kid. You just got me cracking. Well I don't need to explain anything to you. Since you are the ancestors I will leave you to it. Just don't say this stuff in the midst of real men that know their ancestry.

oga keep quiet.

Ikwerre, ika, agbor and many more South East group claim Benin ancestry, but speak a version of igbo language.
Mr man take your time o. Yes some regions that share close geographical location with the great benin empire could not help the cultural influx that took place which saw the mutation of their languages. But if you know Benin story wella, you will know that we share history with the Yoruba people rather than the Igbos.

Food / A Little Boy Calls 911 Because He's Hungry by Ftheophilous(m): 5:01pm On Apr 23, 2019
Well. Here’s something you don’t see every day.
In Wyoming, Michigan, a five-year-old boy called 911 last Sunday. The reason? He was hungry and hankerin’ for Mickey D’s.

The boy’s grandmother couldn’t help because she was sleeping, so he picked up a long-ago deactivated telephone. He gave a ring to the only number the phone would still call: Emergency Services.

The little go-getter — whose name is Iziah — asked the dispatcher, “Can you bring me McDonald’s?”
Dispatch contacted Kent County police Officer Dan Patterson and asked if he would check on the ambitious tyke.

On his way to the residence, Dan stopped by McDonald’s and picked up some goodies.

The cop explained himself to local WZZM 13:
“I figured, ‘Hey I’m driving past McDonald’s on my way there, and I might as well get him something.'”
Makes sense.

(Officer) Patterson said when he showed up, Iziah was initially worried that his grandmother would be upset that he’d called the police and asked him to leave.

The five-year-old’s grandmother was grateful to the kind lawman for his generous deed. And Dan asked Iziah to only use 911 for emergencies.

But hey — sometimes a need for your favorite burger feels like an emergency.
What a great story. Sometimes those we pay to keep us safe go above and beyond the call of duty.

If it is this youth that we have currently, then to be honest, we might have a bleak future. Sometimes, I feel that the youth are more corrupt than these politicians. If you are well intimate with school politics, which is supposed to be the bedrock for more subsequent political involvement of some aspirants, you will agree with me. But let me just watch how it all unfolds.

IntrovertedK:
as bad and barbaric as the behaviour of the bus conductors and public transport drivers (which are typical uneducated, uninformed set of people), you can still compare it to an average educated igbo man. These guys that killed their mate are students (educated) buh it's a normal thing for them (as a tribe) to believe in muscle over brain.
Bro, you are very tribalistic. The worst part is that you are living in a very diversified state like Nigeria.
Although some regions have their idiosyncrasy, but that could have been done by any person irrespective of his/her tribe.
You see, some humans are very wicked. If they don't kill for money, they kill for fame, love, positions, you name it.
I feel that you generally dislike the Igbos but don't let it consume you.
