AgbaJohnDoe:interesting......well marrying an older woman is not really the reason why you are having a tough time relating wit your wife. The challenge in that marriage is because of some things she knows that you DNT know. she is 33yrs and you are 32yrs. she appears to be ahead of you in terms of exposure, real life experience and knowledge. That is her leverage over you. I once had a female frnd like dt. she is 2yrs my senior. wen I was 35. She was 37. with all humility, I am ahead of her in terms of exposure and real life experience. she most times ask me even up till now for my opinion on issues dt affect her for advice and guidance. Before we got close, I use to assume she is loaded in wisdom abt life that I cud learn from. It was wen we became close dt I knew I was far ahead of her. sometimes I wil scold her nd talk to her like my mate nt rudely anyway but after dt moment, I wil ask myself, am I really the one tongue lashing dis woman or na my spirit. The simple reason is because I know a lot of stuffs dt she doesn't know. she is more verse and knowledgeable Dan you that is the source of your woes. As we grow , get older and constantly seeking knowledge and more awareness , one wud realize he is constantly changing in his thoughts and behaviours. between your first year and the sixth year of your marriage, she has been exposing herself to the good, bad and ugly scenario of life knowledge wise. she may not necessarily be the actor in dt situation but frm oda peoples experience,from the internet and in her hunger for knowledge, she started agreeing to som of diz stuffs or experiences of odas and adopted it in her marriage that was what made her to change. On your path, you stopped improving urself. You stopped engaging your mind as regrds reading or learning how to act manly frm odas dt are ahead of you. That is where you loose guard. Work on your mind. If you do, you wil start seeing results. |
If the accusations and counter accusations from both end are true, then both of them are clowns. according to the woman ,harry song bed wets. so she knew the man use to bed wets, she didn't see it as an issue before now and agreed to marry him. Now that they are having issues, she is now seeing his bed wetting as smth embarrassing. The man is saying he regrets marrying into her family that her mother has children for different men. same applies to the man. He knew this and told the girl, na you I wan marry. I careless abt you and your family baggages. Now pipeline don burst, he is now calling araadugbo to com hear. Both of them are not mature. |
my dear fellow husband, I understand to some extent your complain because am also in the home front like you. Its good to have principle but in marriage we shouldn't be too rigid with our principle. You were raised in a home very different from your wife. Most of us in this our adult stage, what we do and act is a chronological build up of the pattern we saw our parents do it. so any deviation from what we grew up to to see and do as the acceptable standard is frowned at. You saw your mum kip napkin by the side of your dad's food on the table to dry his hands after washing and it became a norm and to you that is how it should be. so you have borrowed dat style which you are now using in your marriage. What is a standard to you may not be a standard to the other party. you may be right in your own eyes. your wife too may also be right in her own eyes too. the bone of contention is that you both are seeing same thing differently. You need to twerk your principle a bit. DNT be too rigid. I understand you structure your marriage base on roles but stil you have to look beyond roles.Marriage makes one vulnerable. There are soo many things you will not take when you were single but when you get married, there are a lot of shits you wil see plenty that you just have to painfully take not because you are weak but because you now have a partner dt views things differently from you. you just have to relax your principle or rules a bit. You can relax your principle and still be assertive and firm in your home. As for the salt issue, this is what you should do. respond to her error with small humor.bring out the humorous side of you when she doesn't do it right. If you were the one doing the cooking urself wen you were single, you may complain abt her own salty meal but out of understanding because you too in d past go done mis-cook wen you dey single. I guess you were not the cooking type bk den. But if you can cook, you can tease her nd tell her you wil cook the next meal and make sure you do that nd do it well so that she too wil taste urs and know the difference of how you want her to be doing it. As for the napkin wahala, you can try this. If she is always forgetting to bring you napkin. You can permanently leave one on the table. when it's dirty, she wash nd returns it bk on the table you eat your meal. It is actually YOU that will correct the wrong in that marriage. There are some social skills you appear not to have. Be tactful wen you relate with your wife. As I said, chip in some humor to ease tension once in a while. Be intentional in correcting all dis. I repeat. Be intentional in all of this and get involved too. DNT sit and complain. All the best |
Moves into nassarawa palace? A palace in kano called nassarawa or a palace in nassarawa state? |
the movie had many missies than hit. Let me ask? was there really a team set up to scrutinize and constructively criticize the storyline before shooting? A good script is always dissected. Analyzed and seriously questioned by professionals before they begin shooting. Who even directed that movie?was there even a director in that movie? I guess the answer is a NO. If at all there was, they dint place any finger in that script. seems there weren't professionals behind the camera. They just did a poor job for the owner of the movie. Water and garri. Who be the water ? Who be the garri for the movie? No suspense in the movie? Nothing thrilling. No comedy in it at least to make up for the lapses. TY acting skill isn't refined . Too mechanical. The movie doesn't have that Nollywood taste. |
islovehard:It's a good thing to do for your staff but if i may ask, what are the criteria you wil be using to judge the staff for the month? Are you the sole person that wil decide or it will be a committe? choosing a staff as the best for that month should be done with consideration. some staff can feign fake hard worker just to get the cash prize if it's cash you want to give. it is when a sycophant sees the oga or supervisor within dt is when he begins to shout nd raise his/her voice at subordinate/casual/contract staff to impress the oga all because there is a cash prize for the best staff. Moreso, will your choice be based only on effort put on the job or you consider other factors? A boss might decide to give it to staff A not really base on competent maybe based on loyalty. the staff that feeds oga with gossip nd side talk of who hates oga or who is talking bad about oga. The ass licking staff to the boss. sometimes it is not easy to choose the best staff because some staff may work where eyes don't see them. Those staff that put in alot of effort on their job diligently but hardly noticed. some others may wrk alone in a particular section away from oga's eyes. unfortunately, staff in dis category are assume not to be working. Be careful how you go about it so it doesn't cause bad blood among your members of staff. some that feel they should recognize but DNT get nominated may start feeling relax on the job. "since them no give me award, make those ones when dem give do the wrk" that is what your disgruntled staff will be echoing. all the best. |

bummyla:the struggle for survive enh is really biting deep. as you said , why check up on somebody that doesn't have when you can't assist them wit cash or stuff to use hold body. some will assume you forgot dem nd enjoying ursef all alone. But they DNT know dt you desire to send dem somtin but you are incapacitated. sometimes, I struggle to call loved ones not doing well on fone not because I DNT wnt to talk to dem but calling is not enough. It makes me feel sad dt I dint send money after dt call. You can't solve evry loved ones financial challenge or else you wil be overstretched and overstressed. That's why we shud as seperate individual put more effort to push to get tins happen unto cash inflow on our own part no mata how little it is Dan expecting one brother or sister or uncle/aunty to keep sending us cash. |

I know plenty water water don pass garri. You probably just choose to single out dis case out of d plenty woes happening in ur marriage of my husband threw me out of the huz. there's is a difference between my husband is having a womanfrnd outside the home aside from me and my husband chased me out and brought in anoda woman in. Most men won't wnt to evict a good woman dt "made them" who they are as you claim you did. you said u gave up a job slot for him. He may cheat and still keep the woman bt for him to evict you, den somtin must have gone wrong on ur side. I may be wrong but I tink d mistake u made was you relaxing after u "made him" and you not " making ur self" I mean adding value to ur own self. you said you can't function anymore. you cnt sleep without taking alcohol. you have developed high blood pressure. where will you start from? D truth is dis,we all owe ourselves the responsibility of our own growth in life. you believed so much in him dt you wil benefit frm his success dt u dint also make urself. Der are plenty women in dis ur case but they DNT bait an eyelid the man left. why? because they also worked on themselve after they "made" their husbnd. they dint just relax. There is a huge difference btw "your money" and "my money". You see dos women on Lagos island selling stuffs. dos ones dt sell jewelry, dos xpensiv lace nd clothing materials. Some of dem gave dia husbnd money for biz start up. they dint close shop or wait for husbandman yam to done because som understand dt even in marriage, some partners may change wit tym. so weda d man run go kafachan or chase dem out of d huz,they are nt so moved because they are self sufficient. weda in marriage or out of marriage, we shud av personal goals and ambition dt we shud kip pursuing aside d collective or joint dream we have wit our spouse. As a marid woman, u were suppose to have ur own ambition aside from ur husby. dat is where you missed it. You are a graduate. You said you are a chemical engineer. I know engineers to be rugged and ambitious but you DNT sound like sm1 dt is self sufficient. You are talking like sm1 dt cnt get somtin done alone. a marid woman shud not be lost cooking egusi soup and semo as wifey obligation year to year in marriage without placing a demand on herself on how to earn her own money diff frm her husby even if d man is providing all dt u need. wen a wife doesn't tink in dt direction nd wrk towards it, she may find herself in dis unpleasant situation u are asking for advice so. You are worrying dt the man left. u are more worried he left you because of the financial burden dt only you will be battling with taking care of ur child. Let me ask, let's assume d man died, won't u start to adjust nd tink of wat to do to earn money to survive? people evolve and may change behavior wit d passage of tym. Am very sure ur husbnd wasn't like dis in the first ad second year of ur marriage. The issue is not weda the man is good or bad. Wat you shud be do right now is to set urself on action mood of survival without him. |
let me quote you....."she cried heavily saying I now referred to her as a smelling wife" You said you both are marid for 7yrs. correct me if am wrong. Is dis a statement dt shud make her cry? weNeva my wife comes bk frm wrk nd she is all sweaty. I tell her with small humor in it. "you are smelling. Go and shower" she wil want to be lazy about it. I wil stil repeat wt I said so dt she knows she needs to shower asap nd she does it without any fuse. she too does same to me and I DNT get offended I DNT know the style you both adopt in communicatin but a marriage as old as 7yrs is not really a new marriage. at dis stage u both have reach, it ought to be an open minded style of talking to each oda. seems like most of d time before you talk to her, you have to rehearse ur talk in ur head , edit nd re-edit it before u voice it out to her so she no go vex. You appear to be more mature Dan her. when a partner genuinely show concern unto hygiene or health related issue as it affects d oda partner, d oda party shouldn't feel offended. It shows dt u care she definitely cnt be 20yrs or 24yrs probably in her 30's . she using tears to water down wt affect ls her is not wise. dt is emotional blackmail. Bk to d mata, I DNT tink she bathing late is d reason for d body odour. most persons here contributed well to your ordeal. "....let her bath twice a day", "..... both of you shud bath" ".....let her use cologne" , "......let her wash nd rinse her clothes well" nd bla..blaaa .... blaaa d undiluted truth be say na only she knows the cause of the bad smell. A person dt truly needs help won't cry. She is not ready to help herself. |
Money wahala.If the man is not very calculative and discipline with money, he wil find himself borrowing all the time to kip the home running. Responsibility in d home dat goes wit solving it with money keeps hitting you back to back.to some extent,it bcoms pretty difficult for you to save. As for the man, he may stay for like 1yr and doesnt buy himself a new t-shirt or jeans trouser because of lots of sacrifice and financial commitment he is making for the home. Inevitably, sometimes husbandman gets broke. He starts to check the pocket of all his trousers if he could see some little cash he probably forgot . You can call it a life saver money. At workplace,he bcoms cautious in situations dt wil warrant him a query or been sack because of the big effect his dismissal wil cause his family . Husbandman absorbs insult from his supervisor or boss even when he is not at fault. He kips swallowing unpleasant incident, psychological and verbal abuse so as to keep his job. Man is 45yrs. Wife is 25yrs. Irrespective of the age gap between him and his wife, the wife also serve him her own idiosyncrasies at home. By virtue of marriage, the wife assumes to be equal to the man. ".....foolish man", "...yeye man","...you no get shame", "....idiot","....poor man", ".....I regret marrying you" ".......bla blaaaa blaaa" that is the usual ringtone when her hypothalamus bcoms skewed. Husband gets cranky when he is broke. He wil keep shouting and complaining repeatedly about Wifey's act of wasting resources in d home. "Your water is boiling. Go and off the gas" , "the gdnut oil you added in the stew is too much. don't you know dt gdnut oil is now vry expensive " "Husbandman gets caught up in buying wife gift for almost every public holiday. you buy for 1st January, you buy for February 14, you buy for Easter, you buy for mother's day,you buy on her bday, you buy on Christmas day at the request nd reminder of d wife not dt the man intentionally choose to. Wife allows nacking base on how well husbnd buys her stuffs. sex may bcom like doing husbnd a favor. some husband somtyms practically beg to do sex wit the woman he paid her dowry. Husbandman is stuck with the ocassional struggle to please inlaw. If you don't send stuffs to inlaw, you are branded a stingy husbnd. Dia unending manipulation and emotional blackmail crawls into marriage.if husbandman is not the assertive nd firm type, he may be turned to a vegetable by the wife. Solomonic wisdom needs to be applied once in a while as it is not all misunderstanding dat requires the man to bring out canon to quench it. You ignore some and you respond to some. the man needs to pick nd choose his fight. e plenty oooo. make local man stop here and sip some burukutu |

olaben16:That amount may purchase the.machine but won't be able to start the biz nd keep it going. wat sustains a POS biz is steady inflow of cash to keep paying customers. Most of them just have the machine but DNT have cash most of the time. |
since he doesn't want to use his sense to assume responsibilities. Give am responsibility. Call him one of dis days after work. Just you nd him for the meeting. Tell am say tins are getting tough for you unto money level. say henceforth, him go dey pay for him tfare and is accomodation na temporal. say make him begin dey make plans on how to get his place. Atlist you don use one stone kill 2 birds. You don wake am up frm his responsibilities towards himself nd him wife wen him no dey send money to. |
abi a huge chunk of single ladies are saying money is nos1 factor dt sustains marriage. If bobo no get money yanturu , I no go marry am. If Nigerians wealthiest woman is separating from her husbnd den we have to keep asking ourselves wat actually keeps marriage till standing til they get to say 80,90yrs until death takes one away from d oda? |
And you wil keep replacing them for every lazy farm worker that receives.money and refuse to do the job. tomorrow, you wil tell the farm owner to send more money to settle the new guys |
the issue here lies more on the man Dan the woman. Beyond the angle of finance(providing) there are oda attributes the man lacks. every marid man has passed Tru and some men are presently passing Tru the heat wit dia wife. Everyman wit his own form of heat/headache his wife is giving him but wat makes the difference is the way the man responds to the shenanigan of his wife. The intention of your wife's statement determines how u respond to her nagging. Is her intention/request genuine? She told you dt you are poor nd wretched because you cnt buy her a fone. Most women throw tantrums nd insults at d husbnd just because they wnt to talk carelessly as som of dem do just to broke shame you to do somtin abt their request . in a way, dia antics cn somehow push you to bring out the solution frm you and if u are nt strong enough,na smth silly dia pressure go push u to to do. It is their usual antics and if you are not strong psychologically as a man, you go wan react out of anger nd hit her. my frnd in dis story, you are not psychologically strong.seems the woman is psychologically stronger Dan you. Work on urself . You are weak in dt area. reduce the amount u send to ur siblings or u pause it for somtym and use the money to attend to ur needs of ur own family. Now dt u are marid, ur family needs comes first before your siblings. weNeva they call u , let dem know dt you don't have for now, dt u wnt to use the money with you to get some items for ur family. You said you dnt know wat to do or wer to go to. Do u want to run away from your home?to say it the way it is, you have a weak self esteem. Work on urself. most of us Neva had a mentor before we got marid. We learn frm books. dou we haven't arrived yet. We are still learning frm seminar, experience from odas ahead of us in marriage,self development books. you cnt give wat you DNT have. Wat you DNT have is knowledge. get it Anoda area you are lagging is dat you are not been assertive enough as the head of the home. you said you always go to the oda compound to fetch water and because of dt your wife keeps insulting you. Mister husband man, you are not acting like the head of dt home. You are talking like a teenager. Is the woman incapacitated dt you cn not ask her to go get water for the huz abi shey she do operation wen put her for wheel chair or she dey bedridden? atlist let the fetching of water be shared btw you nd her not you carrying keg or bucket of water on d street like a teenager all d tym. A man needs to talk like a man irrespective of how much you earn. wat if to say you no dey wrk? Dt means the woman for dey injure u back to back with house chores. You said ur wife told you dt she regrets marrying you. You also said she has been dragging you dt u must buy water tank in d huz. I may be wrong but it seems it is the woman in dt house that is calling the shot. Oga sir, I know u DNT have tv in dt huz as u said . my advice for you is dis;weNeva u visit ur frnds dt have gotv or dstv, tell him dt u wud like to watch natgeo wild or any Oda station dt shows wildlife particularly clips on how lion act in the midst of oda smaller lions. A lion is bold, fearless and assertive. You will learn alot frm it. am not saying you shud go beat up ur wife u claim you love. Make I drop pen for here . Dou I get plenty to say |

I have qtns to ask the marid man in that home. Is this the first time the woman is talking to him dt way? How long hz he been marid to d woman? Before now, how does he riggle himself out of dis similar situation in d past wit dt woman? Is the wife the first nd only woman he dated before marriage? How old is this marid man? |
17sept to anoda 17sept the next year is one calender year. the landlord is not suppose to count frm sep1st to sept16 for you since you dint pack into the apartment as at dt period. He is shortchanging you if he tells you your rent expires august the following year. He can only say your rent expires the following year if you packed into dt apartment sept1st |
seems it's all ova Lagos landlords increase their huz rent. Increment in rent is normal bt the top up most of dis huz owners add is crazy and aside this ,some wil increase your rent few yrs after you packed in. Imagine a huz owner increasing huz rent 2years after the person moved in and also telling the person to pay to construct borehole in the compound. Not that the borehole money will be deducted from his NXT yr rent. I was forced to get a land and start building when my landlord increased my rent by 60% . and it will keep on increasing. I had to give my sef sense quick. ThankGod, the project have started. |
don't go meet the hr. Every standard organization has probation period for a new employee. It could be 3 or 6mnts. That is the period you are assessed to know how well you can fit into the job. Use this period to prove that you can do the job. After this, you can now approach your hr for upwards review of your pay. The amount you told them was documented and the hr wud have probably told the MD the amount you are asking for. Mind you the hr too is an employee of the company so he wouldn't want to go back to the MD and say the new guy said the money is small nd shud be taken up after you have called a figure. The hr wouldn't want to take insults because of you frm the MD or say smth on your behalf dt may put his own job on the line. Painfully accept your mistake. Resume the job. Be patient til after your probation period and go back to the hr for upward review. All the best youngman |

Emilokoiyawon:You won't say this if to say that guy was your blood brother. it's more Dan a biz agreement. the young dude said it with his mouth dat if he dies they shud hold naira marley and his crew responsible. I DNT tink it's just a biz agreement. they must have been series of threat naira marley nd his goons must have been serving him back to back. How can you say we shud be guided when you too saw the video of his close associate use weda na cane abi na Cutlass threaten the guy. how cn they still be intimidating and oppressing him even after he has left the music label. some Oda young guys dt spent time with naira marley music label too are coming up dia own harrowing experience during their stay in that label. some running mad and you say is just biz gone wrong. It's more Dan dat nobody will ever complain when he is in a company where he is been treated well nd vry happy. Na so e dey also be. Wheneva you are in a questionable group and along the line you say you no do again. e don be for you be dat. After you done dine with devil and him don take you round to see his own holy of holies, show you him strong room and you say no do again. Na gbas gbos you go dey collect if you attempt to leave the grp i tink it's the fear on the part of the label dt the guy will expose dia diabolic activities after he left the grp dt made them to keep tormenting him thereafter. Naira marley cant say for almost 3yrs the guy spent under him, he did not know dt he was been oppressed and tormented by his goons. It's possible he(nairaa Marley) may not be the one dt nailed him finally but he is an accomplice for sniffing off the guys light. Your associate kept on bullying him with dangerous weapon nd he(Marley) says he doesn't know abt it ![]() the mental torture dt lad suffered was so deep dt it changed him completely to vegetable. you cn treat malaria and you bounce back few days after . But you see mental illness caused as a result of continous torture ,threat and intimidating dey hard to heal. It's just the few video clips we are privy to see on the internet dt we are commenting on. wat about Oda attacks dt wasn't recorded. Oda despicable incidences dt the guy dint tell us. the guy harrowing experience in the hands of those evil men is not wat evil breeze shud blow us into. |
