Nah how we dey push am be that o.

Do u live in lagos or any other major city? Have you at least considered lecturing? 4 kids on 20k monthly...tins are really happening...

UEDIBO:


It's happening. I'm a Masters degree holder with many other qualification.
I have never received salary more than #20,000 in my life before. I'm 38 years with 4 children. Things are happening.

By begging (for example Chairman, oga I loyal o, big mummy find me sometin) and borrowing sometimes without any intention of paying back. Others get side hustle like sewing, plaiting hair. Some dey work 2 jobs driver by day, security guard by night.

iykbethany:

With this high cost of living, how do people survive on 30k per month salary in Nigeria �?

I mean from this meagre salary, you pay for your transportation to and from work, rent, utilities, medicals, food etc

Rented a duplex in lekki or he owned a duplex in lekki?

Airports...met the most interesting characters at the airport...

I never inferred that God should be cursed in any circumstance. People clapping when a plane lands are often lauding the pilot and feel relieved that they land safely.

Your question on what people do if a plane crashes must be a rhetorical question,
walahhi. Wat will any rational being do when a plane is crashing? Just negodu the question

1Sharon:


If the IVF wasn't successful, should they curse God instead?

Like the people that clap when a plane lands.

What will they do if it crashes?

They are free to give the glory to God while you give your own glory to a stone. Truth is no one freaking cares. Are all IVFs successful? Why are people so pained over other people life choices. Jesus

To sing wat?

Gistlobby:
Dressing decently for occasions should be one of the priorities of all ladies. However, some ladies seem to dress anyhow for occasions these days.

The woman in your picture has been captured on camera wearing a seductive dress to church. One cannot tell whether she is a singer at the church or she was invited to sing at the church.

However, most social media users after coming across her picture said that her dress doesn’t suit the occasion.

Dont be too sure...

ransomed:
You want your own son to survive but endangering the son of another?
You used money to entice and lure him abroad without the consent of his family. UK should give Ike and wife full wrath of the law as laid down without mercy.
He is a medical "kidnapper"

He looks above 15. at least 18.

Hoelujohn:
Na street things Dem run Ekwremadu. The boy intentionally said he was 15 years old . He must have learnt or told that once you are below 16 years in UK, you are regarded as minor and you will be protected. They can't even deport you if you enter illegally.
I am sure the boy has watched UK border force agency programme where he learnt about the loophole in the UK immigration system.

3 months!

Don't quit your job except there's a better paying alternative. Where una dey find partners like this sef?

Suya is not usually pure beef. Everytime I've insisted on proper beef, its been way smaller than the usual portions

Everything is wrong with taking a second wife in CHURCH. African values and church are not usually aligned. Second wife deserve trad marriage but if you want oyibo wedding, u musto divorce first.

Ndi African values but you no get farm, ur wife dey contribute and your pikin dey go school. shioor

backtalkG:
What's wrong with taking a second wife if he is capable of taking care of them
African values has been deeply eroded

So, wat should we do?

You woke up by 8.42am and your pikin get us passport. Chai, show us the way na.

Your wife is more interested in the achievement of her goals and u seem to be detail - oriented so u guys should compliment each other. I'm absent minded so every time I step out of a taxi, plane seat, restaurant I usually look through to make sure I don't leave anything behind. So u can get her to always take a second glance while u support her by being her third eye till she gets the hang of it.

Just 50 people is now centre stage

She's sending a message and I really like her. U Kent sow dishonour and reap honour. Heck, the clown Yul cannot even respect himself. Ok, u Don marry second wife. Must you talk more than a retired gossip and for wat really? And yall saying him is disrespectful, I hail o. Him no be pronoun? Bikonu, leave her alone as she has requested. #girls are not smiling

After 3 sons, he still needed a male child. Zukwanike

TimmyTen:
Igbo man wanted a male child so he choose to marry another woman!! Moreover its part of our culture to marry as many as we can take care of.. Happiness should be Paramount in life not what people think or expect from you.. Nobody holy pass!!

Congrats Mr. Yul

Maybe cos the intelligence agencies are complicit (helping to commit a crime ) or complacent (indifferent).

God1000:
Our intelligence agencies should do more abeg, I don't understand why a group like Muric will be the one advising Nigerians on potential danger.

We have

1. State Security Service (SSS) – Responsible for domestic intelligence.

2. National Intelligence Agency (NIA) – Responsible for foreign intelligence and counterintelligence operations.

3. Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) – Responsible for military intelligence.

What exactly are they doing?

Wetin be g-15 abeg

My dear, they just lost interest by 1 year without any special action of mine. Personally, I was also petrified about the impact of long term breastfeeding on my breasts so it was max 1 year for me. You might need to keep experimenting with foods till you find wat your little one likes and age appropriate multivitamins like abidec or reload to boost the appetite.

Boliboli760 :-Xpost=113247897:


That is great to read. Look forward to mine. How did you stop breastfeeding? Kindly share we can all benefit from our fellow mothers.

Happened twice for me so no biggie but I usually stop breastfeeding once they clock one.

Boliboli760:


Yes, it is back and regular too. That will be nice. Thank you.

Is your period back? If yes, you can get pregnant while breastfeeding.

Both were divorced

obi4eze:


The onslaught of the enemy on godly marriage is so strong these last days. One marital mistake a person can make is to marry a divorcee.

dumb, dumber, dumbest. Please dont touch her sha cos she is an ADULT. Hope youre not a paedophile though

I'll pass, not sure I qualify

nokspos:
lol you should try polyandry then

Yall not seeing the benefits of polyandry.
Once, a woman has been disvirgined and the hymen that mandates a woman should have only one man has been removed , by all means consider the potential benefits of polyandry like borrowing money from co husbands and health benefits of exercises like physical combat.

nokspos:
Polygamy would have been fine if christianity didnt preach one man one wife in the first place. Yet many prophets married more than one wife in the bible and God never condemned them, something tells me it's one woman that wrote that part of the bible that says one man one woman, it doesn't look like what God wrote. Only the quran got that marriage thing right. Now women are beginning to accept that their husband could have side a chick but why not wife her and personalize this side chick to avoid the risk of STDs.

The only reason any man including me , wont want to be polygamous is because women dont want it , and the only reason women don't want it is because the bible preached against it and taking a second wife forcefully will most likely lead to early grave for the man because the first wife is against it. But in the real sense every man wants a second wife or more wives because biologically we are wired differently from a woman, God didnt create a man and woman the same way biologically. We may have similar brain and other future but our sex organ is different, a man produces millions of spam every seconds... to use it with one woman ? I dont think so. A woman was born with a hymen covering their virginal indicating only one man owns her while a man comes with nothing of such meaning more women owns him.

Woman are not seeing the advantage of polygamy because if you take the envy out of it, you can borrow money from your other wives , they can take care of your children while you went for a weekend party , you can do a family business , a man can have sex everyday or twice a day , but most women are not designed to do this expecially after they've given birth to a child, so your other wives can help you out on bed when you focus on other things, when you give birth to a new child , while you cant have sex immediately, your husband can have sex with the other wives. More women will be off the street and have a home too if polygamy becomes a norm in our society, your wives and your husband can save up money faster to buy properties and do bigger things, the advantage to polygamy is endless , but christianity messed up everything for us. I'm a christian and christian is a good religion but I doubt that marriage part is right

N the ones who do all the whining rarely provide or even have funds to start with before they can start claiming their partners are living off them. No one hears of Otedola or Jim Ovia whining. More often than not, an Otedola wife will be itching to work.

cococandy:
thankful for the ones like you who get it!

As an elder, name one Nigerian man that has stayed peacefully with his wife's co-husband, lover in one room. Just one...Ndi elder

emmanuelbrown26:
Well, as an elder i hv to come in.
First and foremost, d problem started from d garden of eden. Adam was in good terms with d whole animals, trees, water and sea, including d things beneath water.
Jah brought in Eve, problems started, enmity came, nagging started, backbiting started, manipulation started.
A situation whereby 10 men stays in a room for years without any issues, but put 2 ladies in a room and watch as they would turn d room into wwe.
D gods are wise
