O boy why did you just post only one picture, i am currently making a reserach project for my MSC in Sociology. The topic i am writing on is kind of biased towards Zulu culture. i have been looking for these picture. pls post more.

dakkylove:
this is actually a very touching topic, i have never hawked in my life , but for all of you who came from very humble beginnings, never forget where you came from, and always try to help, some children who hawked were used for rituals,converted to become armed robbers e.t.c therefore it's a miracle for those of you who have survived and done fantastic things with your life.we all have our own levels of struggle but the lesson is to learn from our experiences and hope that we have become better persons.

funkybaby:


and to add to all that , she is stubborn too?




so it is the man that she wants to marry she is calling such adjectives : ''mad'', ''a bastard'' , an ''idiot'' and ''a fool''
na wa oh.


what now happens when you relocate to live with her in the states ?
live in her house where she is paying the bills at least until you find your feet ?

anyway, i do not believe in bringing third parties into disputes between couples
call her and pour out your mind to her . she will most likely say she is sorry. if she acts the same way again, call off the wedding off asap.

[size=18pt]there is nothing as bad as having an abusive partner. it might be pardonable for a man but a lady, no way !!

you need to be a man and take total control of your relationship.
[/size]  go ahead and marry her at your peril.  you wan open eye enter trouble.  you wonder why she couldnt get any man in america.

MUZBO:
@jagunlabi, please highlight businesses by mosques. I'm not saying you are wrong but I want to know if my smart ass has fallen victim of 'dupes' in God's name.
I'm waiting. . . .

Abuzola:
Thank you very much ttalk, i highly appreciate your time and energy, may God bless you, now i know what a church and christian mean. Am now convinced.

[color=#008855]This has to be one of the most judgmental things I've said on this forum, but I've said it to friends asking the same question before, and it's because. . you are shallow.

You judge others to such a high standard, and you can't apply one rule for others and another for yourself. When you see a person, you don't see them, you see what they have, what they are wearing, how their hair is styled, you're probably only using 30% of your conscious mind to focus on what the person is saying, the other 70% is used to compare from head to toe.

I'm sure you've met people who haven't been as fortunate as yourself, and you look down to them, because you have this and you have that.

The sooner you give people a break, and learn to look deeper the better your outlook for yourself will be.

Not everybody has such a strict judging system, if you can achieve it, you can forget about the snide comments "Man, I wonder if people think that of me too."

After all, life's too short to be trying to be perfect because we never will be. [/color]

fortunately, there are christians who are more honest about their interpretation of scripture

then again, they are not in a debate that they must win by force

All sorts of replies on this thread,

i think the question is, If you are in a relationship or you are married, what will you do, if you find out that your partner has kept a certain story or information away from you for a long time, ? what will you do?

As for me, i believe, no matter what the story is, its best to let your partner know, the earlier the better, some stories might hurt at first, but one will appreciate the fact that i was told,

i believe everything must be said at one point in time, nothing stays hidden,

BigBro:
Trusting Ndigbos again with power in this country would amount to suicide. The memories of the 1960s are still fresh with the rest of us when the Ndigbos conspired among themselves and lunched brutal attacks on eminent sons of Nigeria from the North and South West. They brutally killed eminent people like Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Sardauna of Sokoto and Akintola. The then president, Azikiwe knew about the plot and so embarked on a prolonged trip abroad with an excuse to seek medical attention. His personal doctor who was among his entourage had to leave his oga abroad becouse he was tired and was already running out of his personal esta code. Unknown to him that his oga had a hidden reason for his prolonged trip. Thank God their plot backfired and they were called back to order.

No knowledgeable person thinks that Mend is a terrorist group. It is clear that their interests go beyond petty terrorizing and is an actual struggle to achieve a very simple objective. If the Nigerian state even had an iota of intelligence they could have negotiated their way out of this by making certain concessions. The 3 billion dollars that went to strengthen security in the Niger Delta two years ago could have been used for development. Instead of being embezzled, and they wonder why Mend grows stronger. If you were captured by Mend you will most likely get out alive, unless the JTF tries to mount a rescue operation in which case you are certainly dead. This is men against boys. This situation could have been contained two years ago but the shear incompetence of Nigeria fanned the flames. The Nigerian Security Apparatus has no idea on how to deal with this problem, and unless they want to bring in more Israelis, Americans, Brits, and Dutch they will not defeat Mend militarily, All these idiots know is ethnic cleansing. And with Oil discovered off of Ghana and a relatively stable Angola no one wants to stick their head out for this boondoggle. Again anyone who thinks that Mend is a terrorist group is seriously misinformed or are part and parcel invested in the Nigerian Kleptocrazy(sic)

Let's not talk about the IMF or the Impact of colonialism which left behind extrapolative institutions meant to ferry out the resources of the country out of the country instead of setting up institutions that benefited the people. Let's not talk about the idiots who listened to the neo-liberal conservatives at the IMF and Worldbank who foster this false idea of a totally free market without a helping hand to advance development. If these institutions believed in it so much then why hasn't their main backers applied those ideas to their own nations? What economic sense does it make to keep subsidizing industries that aren't profitable such as farming in the west, and recently the auto industry, banking sector, et cetera when cheaper products would be gain by opening them "nekkid" ---without subsidies-- to competition? Because it leads to a loss of jobs and to capital flight. China allows foreign companies to operate within its borders but with a 50 percent stake in those companies and they use those funds to support their homegrown companies that compete with the foreign ones. That simple concept of allowing FDI with limiting rules that actually benefits your own country hasn't reached many African countries and yet it is so logical and simple as to be astounding. No, let's not talk of these things not because they are painful but because we could talk for eternity about them.

I have always suspected that you have problems, probably you were abused as a child hence your psycological problems and complex espescially when it comes to christianity. But now you have finally confirmed that you are indeed a completely deranged homicidal maniac who is not fit associate with other human beings.

Abuzola:
No religion negates the death of christ except Islam because the jews claim in proudness that they have killed the christian messiah, and in boast that if jesus is indeed a messiah why didn't he save himself from their humiliation, he was crucified with the thieves, so they mocked him. Among the christian denomination some believed jesus was substituted  and was never crucified such as the Basilidans, the Docetate and the Gospel of st Barnabas also support the theory. The Quran settled the dispute Quran 4:157 'And because of the jews saying 'we killed the messiah son of mary' but they killed him not nor do they crucified him, but it appeared so to them, the resemblance of jesus was put unto another man and those who differ are full of doubts. They have no knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For sure, they killed him not'


Islam forbid suicide so we do not know what you are blabbing about, they are martyr and not suicide, suicide is the act of killing oneself while the jihadist do not kill themself alone but a kind of tactical war to inflict death against the infidel

Atreus:
@everyone who's wished me well,thanks. @ ezinne,ur question got me thinking. It's not that i'm pissed off because the focus is away from me(that'd be stupid-i mean,what happens when we have kids?),but i just feel she's too absorbed in the planning that she's forgetting the more important things-namely,how much we love each other and why we want to get married. If i try to shift the date,it would seem like i'm stalling,and that's not the impression i wanna give. I dont have cold feet,i'm a 100% sure that this is what i want to do and she's the woman i want to spend the rest of my life with. I cant see myself involved in the planning(beyond paying the bills),but it's worth a try,i guess.

Ma'sha Allah elder olabowale,

from your quote above, [size=18pt]her age above 6 and 9 is probable [/size]i.e not certain as is only analytical that was done.

I again repeat: one falsehood destroy thousand truths ,[size=14pt] if Aisha was mistaken or lie of her age then what happens to her thousands hadith [/size]

davidylan:
you understand my point very clearly but you pretend not to because its your only leg to stand on at the moment.

I said quite CLEARLY - Which was why i gave a pertinent example, if i were to do my own translation of the bible now . . . i wouldnt use KJV style of english, would that make the bible a fraud then?

what has "style of english" got to do with the central message of the bible?  

Do these folks have to lie so much for allah?

so pls folks help me out

noetic2:
uhmn. . .any evidence for this claim? was this at the ordinance of allah or a miracle of mohammed?

noetic2:
@ olabowale

dont u consider this ages as too young and unfair of allah?

Maturity age then was quite faster than present

littleb:
Mind you. I dont have much evidence, I read several articles on maturity age and history. what I have gleaned is that maturity age varies and early in various places. There are several reports on nine,ten year old girl gave birth and in some places a ten year old girl never grow breast

The thread says:" Sir Olabowale Lets Discuss Aisha's Age" and not miracle of muhammad, pls note!

biola44:
i disagree with u, most feminist just cant see themselves submitting 2 men, dats why they live single lonely n sad lives. "man n woman need each other" - it was written!

mrsb:
The "female marketers" that banks use in Nigeria have always made me uncomfortable and this is why.

Firstly, you must tell your husband about the advances asap - in case he sees a text or gets the wrong idea. He may also think you've been hiding something if you tell him much later.

I also agree with some other posters that you should seek advice from a more senior and respectful lady in your establishment.

For me, I'd love to win the deal but not at any length. Wouldn't you rather be able to sleep at night with a clear consience?

Keep it mature, keep it professional and jokily tell the guy he is making you feel uncomfortable. Try and get an assistant involved in the deal and have them also attend lunch/dinner so he cannot get you alone.

It might surprise him to be politely rejected and he may end up having more respect for you in the future and giving you even MORE business.

Pray for God's wisdom and guidance. Good luck. Xx

EshuKemi:
I dont know why all this fuss the poster is making!

Its very simple: F**k the client, earn your company fees and move on. Are you the first person to sleep with a client to get the job done? 85% of Female marketers sleep with their clients and get the contract and move on. You get paid handsomely for opening your p**ssy, so why feel unnecesarily stingy when its going to lead to mega financial rewards?

Also so what if your married Are you going to be the first married woman to sleep with her clients to win a client over? Must your husband know what your up to and will you foolishly tell him you going to be locked up in a hotel shoving down a d**ck to win an account? Most Married women do it and you should be any different. Bottom line your being paid for f**king a complete stranger and it will lead to promotions galore for you while your idiotic moralistic colleagues will berate you, laugh at you, gossip about you and scorn you but you will be financially richer than them, command respect amongst the big players of your industry because you have climbed up the social and corporate ladder and you will be their bosses all because you opened your yansh for a stranger.

Besides isnt it the money you bring home from your escapades the money that will make your marriage stronger and happier because money is there to keep everyone happy. Dont listen to these fools who will advise you to avoid sleeping with your client because its sinful and immoral.

Trust me, if these fools were in your position, they won't miss a heart beat to f***k the hell out of that client to win that account and won't give a damn what you think about them. They are just jealous that you have a financial el dorado in front of you that will take them 1 billion years to get that kind of opportunity.

So ma sista, f***k that guy wella and recieve your rewards here on earth immediately unless another sharp girl (Especially from Nairaland ) will take it from you

outlaws:


Oprah have done a lot for her self, Black people in the U.S. and in Africa. Charities, and also to ladies. Most of her behaviors show signs of a Feminist.

There is also a saying that some Feminist don’t get married just because they don’t need a guy to help them and that they can help them selves in what ever they are doing. They just live alone or live with a girl or boy friend. Real sad.

Feminists often think that they are better than guys and that they can do anything that guys do. There are even ladies wanting to be Priest just because guys are and they feel because they live in a free society they can do what ever they want.

Feminists, do they empower ladies [turn them into angry women] or do they hurt society [especially guys?].
