Romance › This Is Why You Should Not Practice Polygamy Or Born Plenty Kids by God1000(op): 12:13pm On Jun 13, 2022*

I don't know why some men marry numerous women, anybody still thinking of doing such in today's world should have a rethink.

Yeah, some of our fathers and grandfathers did it due to ignorance, cultural/traditional and religious beliefs, but that was then, we should not do the same

They gave birth to plenty children they could not raise, many of them ended up as thugs, gangsters, and firebrands tormenting the society.

So many people are suffering today because of the poor decisions of their parents, so don't make the same mistake again.

In our society, poor people born more kids than rich ones, your children will grow up hating you if you fail to provide them with proper care and good education.

In some polygamous homes, children from different mothers often fight everyday, wishing each other bad, particularly if they are all living in the same house, and you will try so hard to satisfy all of them.

Everything must be equally distributed among them to avoid unnecessary acrimony and bickering, this will put a lot of pressure on the man

Any man that wants peace of mind should stick to one woman with 2-3 children, marrying one woman doesn't guarantee your happiness and peace of mind, but it's still better than polygamy.

Forget about the happy beginnings, it doesn't always end well, the man will eventually die leaving the children behind to suffer.

The king of my tribe married many wives with dozens of children, some of them became lazy and refused to work and learn when the man was alive because free money and food was coming daily until he died, many of them are regretting it now

A word to the wise is enough.

Education › Nigerian Ashley Adirika Accepted Into All 8 Ivy League Schools In US by God1000(op): 10:59am On Jun 13, 2022

A Florida teen was accepted into all eight Ivy League schools -- and seven other universities

Florida teen Ashley Adirika has always dreamed of attending an Ivy League school. So in late fall, she applied to not just one -- but all eight of them.

On Ivy Day, the fateful spring day when the prestigious schools all announce their first-year admission decisions, Ashley opened eight tabs on her computer -- one for each's applicants portal. One acceptance letter popped up. Then another. And another.

Until she had them all: Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Penn, Princeton and Yale.

It was a surreal moment for the 17-year-old, whose mother emigrated to the US from Nigeria three decades ago. Ashley was surrounded that day by family members -- including her four siblings -- who joined her in squealing in delight at each new acceptance letter.

"I just decided to shoot my shot at all of them and see if it would land. And I had no idea that I would get accepted into all of them," she says. "On Ivy Day, I remember crying a lot and just being extremely surprised."

Ashley, who graduated from Miami Beach Senior High School this month, joins an exclusive group: Since 2018, each Ivy League school has accepted less than 12% of its applicants. This year Yale accepted 4.5%, Columbia took 3.7% and Harvard accepted just 3.2%, the lowest number in the university's history.

Ashley also got accepted to seven other top-rated schools, including Stanford, Vanderbilt and Emory. She picked Harvard, where she plans to major in government this fall.

She's been a force on the debate team
Ashley says she was conflicted between Harvard and Yale, but it all came down to her career aspirations. Her goal is to learn how government works and how policies can help fix economic disparities in communities.

I will surely do that, but there's not enough information and pictures on the internet concerning Osinbajo's residence.

I've searched thoroughly, I only saw three photos that doesn't capture the place well.

This is Aguda house, the official residence of Nigerian vice President yemi Osinbajo

We all know where US president lives, which is white house but many people are oblivious of VP official residence.

Number One Observatory Circle is the official residence of the vice president of the United States. Located on the northeast grounds of the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington

The Vice President’s Residence
With their offices located on the White House grounds, Vice Presidents since Walter Mondale have lived with their families on the grounds of the United States Naval Observatory.

The white nineteenth-century house at Number One Observatory Circle in northwestern Washington, D.C. was built in 1893. Originally intended for the superintendent of the USNO, the house was so lovely that in 1923, the chief of naval operations kicked out the superintendent so he could move in himself. Historically, Vice Presidents and their families lived in their own homes, but the cost of securing these private residences grew substantially over the years. Finally, in 1974, Congress agreed to refurbish the house at the Naval Observatory as a home for the Vice President.

Three years passed before any Vice President actually lived at Number One Observatory Circle. Vice President Gerald Ford acceded to the Presidency before he could use the home, and his Vice President, Nelson Rockefeller, only used it for entertaining. Walter Mondale was the first Vice President to move into the home. It has since been home to the families of Vice Presidents Bush, Quayle, Gore, Cheney, Biden, and Pence.

Vice Presidents have welcomed countless guests to the residence, including foreign leaders and dignitaries. Still, the Naval Observatory has continued to operate. Scientists observe the sun, moon, planets, and selected stars, determine and precisely measure the time, and publish astronomical data needed for accurate navigation.

Located about two miles from the White House and adjacent to several embassies, the secluded home sits on a 72-acre plot known as the United States Naval Observatory. It is not open to the public.
