Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullah.

Interesting topic. It has been on my mind for a while as I am most likely moving back to Nigeria some time into the future. In any case, whenever I am in Nigeria it is quite a struggle to maintain my lifestyle without stepping on people's toes. The Yoruba culture has inculcated too much intermingling among opposite genders, too much music, etc. Personally, I am aghast at the typical yoruba wedding where you've got men and women dancing together! They are not related to each other; essentially the women are dancing in public and shaking parts of their bodies in front of an audience of men ogling at them. I find the scene repulsive. I shudder to think of the men disrespecting those ladies by staring at every part of her, sizing her up, comparing, etc. It is just too lewd.
As such, I find it extremely unpleasant to attend such mixed parties. Alhamdulillah I don't have to encounter that often. But when I do move back to Nigeria, inshaAllah, my plan is to set my boundaries from the start. Let people know what I don't feel comfortable with. And lead a comfortable life in a comfortable environment. When I have an occasion to celebrate, I will have it segregated inshaAllah.

There is also the NYSC issue and wearing hijab wahala. I don't think there should be too much of a problem in the workplace though but do correct me if I'm wrong.
Anyway whoever has more info about it, let us know.
where do u stay presently.?

To me d best u could do is to involve d police,though this attempt has failed BT u never can tell d next approach she will use cos u r both neighbours......not some in far place no matter hie hard u try to distance urself from ha ,she is still close.involving d police will reveal ha atrocity based on d said evidence,and thus will curb further attack.mind u,d shame might send ha packing,hence, u free from ha.

You're 22 and it shows. To be honest, you ain't ready for marriage. Marriage is not a game. It can never be between you and your partner alone even if you live abroad.
It's best you humble yourself and win the family over or you find your way out. You come across as intelligent, focused and know what you want. However, you also come across as inexperienced and naive. Nigerians don't think career is very important when choosing a spouse, especially a wife. I don't know why u keep emphasizing that.
Marriage is more than finance, swag, romance and sex. It's more of tolerance, sacrifice, genuine love and respect for both spouse and their families. You might have to take shit from your husband's family, it's part of what comes with some marriage in Africa.
My advice, humble yourself and win him over or take a walk.
abeg dont try to chose career relating to counselling hence,u will mislead pple.wat u just said is d similitude of u seeing a problem approaching, yet u dabble into it instead of circumventing it.

AdaAda1331:
I've been in a relationship for 5 years with a great man; we met very young and we're still in school but almost about to graduate. We love each other and things would be easier if family wasn't involved.

His parents are currently divorced and his father, step mother and brother are very difficult people. They are uncompromising and closed minded. His brother has called me selfish and controlling even before the introduction has taken place.

I'm currently in my early twenties and I will be graduating as a doctor next year and I'm from a very peaceful home. I have not been wayward during school and I'm a christian. Seeing that his family doesn't see my value is very disappointing to say the least. I expected much more because I know I'm worth much more.

When you marry in the Nigerian community, you don't just marry the person, the whole family is involved. I have strong feelings for this man. He has refused to adopt his families negative characteristics. His values and character is more than any mother, future wife or friend can ask for. I'm lucky to have even known him.

Now, I'm at crossroads. I've prayed to God and I do have peace, but my parents are telling me to disregard that relationship and move on because of his family. Is it worth it? Is family a rate limiting step to choosing a spouse? How involved are family members in during marriage? Should I move on?
permit me to twist Yoruba adage to "oko buruku se fe,ana buruku ni ko she ni."I will advise u to follow wat ur parent said,was once in such dilemma.

AgricultureWe Can Do It Again, Even Better!!! by Gcool2(op): 3:48pm On Jul 25, 2016
WE CAN DO IT AGAIN,EVEN BETTER!!!
It is no longer news,the intense frustration experienced by Nigerians presently. While it is obvious that the government through the media shows that all hands are on deck to ensure the alleviation of the present economic condition. Concerned citizens, both the lettered and the unlettered have expressed their grivances,from those in the industrial or secondary quarters to the non-industrial or primary quarters of the economy, ranging from Bankers,stockbrockers,insurers, business men and women to farmers, market women,artisans and even students. Many have purged their emotions through various thought provoking articles and have proposed feasible solution to our common problems.
This article was provoked by an article written by one Mr Eze Onyekpere titled MR PRESIDENT ECONOMY RECESSION which was published today (25TH July,2016) in punch newspaper (http://punchng.com/mr-president-economy-recession/)Mr Eze was able to express his dissatisfaction over the present convoluted economic quagmire in Nigeria and highlighted possible solutions to the menace.Though exhaustive,his article was.I would like to add an antidote to the poison injected into the Nigeria’s economy.
First and foremost,for comprehensive sake,our
four major economic problems go thus,
i. The plummeting global oil price from about $116 to around $32 per barrel.
ii. The depletion of Nigeria’s foreign reserve from about $40b to about $26b.
iii. The ever highest level of inflation in the history of nigeria’s economy,which is presently 16.5% high.
iv. The Niger delta avenger crisis, which has led to the vandalism of pipelines & threats to the lives and properties of oil workers and associations (PENGASSAN & NUPENG).
The implication of these four cardinal economic problems have relegated Nigeria’s economic outlook into recession. With this, Nigeria’s economy has been held hostage and economic experts now seem incompetent to pay the necessary ransom to salvage our economy.
To a logical and positive individual, who is aware of the realities of today’s economy will applaud the government about her action to diversify the revenue base of the economy. To the naive, let me enlighten you on why it is the only alternative to salvage the wrecking ship of our economy.
The Nigeria’s population, being the highest in Africa ,increased from about 179m in the 4th quarter of 2015 to about 184m in the 1st quarter of 2016 and a projection of about 189m was made for 1st quarter of 2017.Apparently, an arithmetic projection of about 5m people annually.Consequently,the working population(number of people of working age,willing and able to work) which increased from about 76m to 78m at the same time frame, this sends signal of about 2m increase of unemployment level.Now,from the aforementioned cardinal economic problems, I found it inconceivable that the current low production in the oil sector couple with the ridiculous price it is being sold,could b used to drive the economy of our dear nation to the promise land.
Although, president Buhari promised to use only about 800m from the oil sector to finance 2016 budget,but the truth is, the meagre 800m out of 6.07trillion budget is unrealistic. The government proposed executing the budget with revenue from non-oil sector.The question; what substantive measure has government put in place or proposed to put in place to yield huge revenue from agricultural sector? really begs for an answer. To make government’s plans a dream come through, it is important that the population which the government intends to use as means to achieve agricultural revitalization are well informed about the rudiments of agricultural activities. With this,I propose that the government launch a massive orientation about agriculture, ranging from fish farming, crop production,live stock farming, forestry and lots more. This could only be done through higher institution of learning, which is bedrock for acquisition of practical knowledge. Funds should be released for research about viable seedlings and products.Fishery,forestry,livestock and new areas of agriculture are to be entensively explored.The spirit of farm cultivation even at asmall scale for subsistence agriculture should be imbued in the minds of Nigerians through government incentives. Moreover, commercial agriculture should be encouraged through incentive to farmers and direct involvement of government in agriculture.
At the birth of our independence, agriculture was the oxygen we breathed, though I wasn’t born then but thanks to history. Then, agricultural product was major source of export and recorded over 60% of Nigeria’s GDP. Food products were in abundant at affordable prices, and about 90% of Nigeria population were fed with our home grown products(ECONOMIC SURVEY OF NIGERIA by S.O OLAYIDE{1960-1975}).At that period, the sector employed about 80% of the county’s working population, and with our present population, we stand a better chance to do better than we did in the first republic.
Having emphasised on agricultural orientation, The government is required to possess the eagle eyes,to serve as as watch over her expenditure into the agricultural sector.This will ensure accountability,efficiency and a productive result.The present anti-corruption tussle is laudable, and I hope if the government could engage the agricultural sector in the like manner,our economy will be back on track,hale and healthy.
