Women and men of today cannot get little patience with each other and sort marital issues instead is walk away and divorce. Na una sabi
Nobody is willing to sacrifice anymore, they tend to choose the fastest route out which is divorce. It will continue to escalate.

Marriage is full of trouble just as life is.

The only manual for marriage is LOVE.

Once love is absent, marriage collapses like a pack of cards.

So many loveless marriages today.
What makes marriages work is loyalty and sacrifice and not necessarily love. Most people can’t give love even if their lives depends on it. Love isn’t the butterfly feeling in your gut. That js why after a few years when that butterfly feeling has passed, the union begins to crack…true love is based on sacrifice( for God so loved the world that he GAVE his ONLY son) but how many people can sacrifice their very self for another? Very few I tell you.

Consistency matters

Once you break down (which I don't pray for ....cos I want good for arsenal fans ...Dem don try)....you might end up outside of the UCL circle....that's football....and i think fatigue is coming in for arsenal players but still dey should be able to hold on to their first position till WC break....
That's what we are trying to achieve at MADRID...
we are trying to accumulate as much points as possible and remain top of the summit till WC break.... because you never can tell what will happen after the WC.... injuries, fatigue, distractions and all...infact it will look like a whole new season...
The good thing is, other clubs will also be fatigued and distracted with the World Cup too. No be only Arsenal go get the problem naa. Abi other clubs na robots dey play for dem?

Phones / Re: What's So Special About The Iphone Brand? by Grandmeister(m): 6:29am On Oct 23, 2022
Prinzton:
Having been a user of both, and finally pitching my tent with for flexibility I would say Apple has never introduced anything innovative into smartphone development from IPhone 1 to date as it strives on stealing other companies achievements (innovation). and markets on its existing platform.

Apples marketing strategy has been claiming to sell to the upper class using the less quantity high price tag to retain value. But Google, affordability.



Samsung has the crown and record of most sold phone in the world.


Compare other flagship android devices



Aluminium is more expensive than steel and light weight as regards weight of a premium smartphone



Samsung is apple's partner as her screen manufacturer.


You're right on this cos the screen would buy an iPhone on same level.



Until apple goes open source then you'll understand this. Stock OS from the Nexus and pixel supercedes and other flagship




Android does this



Google does this via Google services for as long as ever possible which Apple does not. The more reason you get affordable older devices.

Phones / Re: What's So Special About The Iphone Brand? by Grandmeister(m): 6:27am On Oct 23, 2022
tecnolad:


I'll do just that, bro.

First, iPhones aren't only popular in Nigeria. They are popular everywhere; iPhones take the crown as the most sold device in the world.

iPhones are expensive because:

Apple only releases flagship devices (apart from the SE series that will soon be discontinued) every year, and they use premium materials to build these devices.

Apple build their flagship pro models using steel, which is more expensive and durable than the aluminium frame used in other flagship devices from other companies, including Samsung.

Samsung's S22 Ultra and Fold 4 are more expensive than the iPhone 13 Pro Max, but they use an inferior build frame when compared to the iPhone.

Although their screen is brighter and nicer than the iPhone's, of what benefit is it when it's put in an aluminium frame that isn't strong enough to protect it, especially when it's a curved display?

This is not to say that iPhone's screens aren't nice. They're actually amazing too.

If you think iPhones are expensive to repair or maintain, you should try repairing a Samsung flagship 's screen.

2

Apple ecosystem is just so amazing. If you have an iPhone and a Mac, or an iPad, you can answer your calls from your iPad or Mac, if someone calls your iPhone that's in another room.

Also, if you are browsing a website on your Mac or iPad, you can continue from there you stop on your iPhone.

You can copy texts or media files from your iPhone and paste them on your iPad or Mac

You send a text message to an iPhone user and instead of your airtime, data is used.

3

The phone just works! You're sure that you can pick your phone up and expect it to work pretty fast, without hanging or anything.

You don't need to close apps before your phone works super fast. Most times, I go back to an app I opened 2 days ago and I get to return to where I stopped using the app, without the app reloading. Crazy, right?

Apps have advanced functions than on Android:

1. Twitter space on iPhone has a search bar where you can find spaces you want. The one on Android doesn't have a search bar. You only get what Twitter shows you.

2. I can hardpress a WhatsApp chat and read the message someone had sent to me, without it telling the person that I read their message. Same works from status updates.

3. I can install good shortcuts like "R+ Download" and download videos from any social media app without needing a third-party app.

4. I can airdrop a 1GB file or more in matter of seconds. Yes, I mean seconds!

5. Video recording on an iPhone is just amazing. You won't understand what I'm saying until you record a video on a recent iPhone and a recent Samsung device, and then compare.

4.

Battery life from iPhone 11 series upwards can compete with any Android phone out there with bigger battery Mag.

My iPhone 13 Pro Max lasts me almost a full day on heavy usage. Battery life is better than even the Samsung S22 Ultra.

Processor on this phone is still the most powerful on the market right now. Imagine what the iPhone 14 Pro's processor will be like.

Resale value is good, because not only are iPhones durable because of their build, but Apple also gives software support for almost 4 years after you buy a phone.

I'll let you know of other iPhone advantages, if I think of any.
The 6s got 6 years of os update and currently going on 7 years of software update.

In all of these, I pity the small small shareholders of the old Skye Bank. All their investments has been completely wiped out with this 100% transfer of ownership to SCIL. If you’re not among the big shareholders that can appoint directors to the board of the bank, don’t waste your money buying the shares of a bank. When shit like this happens, you’re going to lose every single kobo you invested in the bank.
I’ve lost a lot of shares because of the instability of companies and the country’s economy. That’s the risk that comes with it.

Naptu2 is older than most nairalanders, going by his threads on old school songs which only a few of us played back in our younger days. He is also lettered and schooled but you see this thing called TRIBALISM eh? No amount of abcd and 123 can wash it off you.

He has a point! There’s no proper town planning in most of the cities in Nigeria. The runoff from those closely packed high rise residential buildings are the number one cause of erosion…the poorly planned drainages are are perennial culprit in flooding.

babaolofin:


I have been busy since morning though I read your reply.

One thing in all these your observations which I agreed earlier, Tinubu will perform better as President.

You did not dissect what I said compounded the situation - SPIRITUAL, Mental and physical pressure of carrying the blames from IBO and SS people of bringing Buhari to power, betrayal and conspiracy against him within APC and the battle to get the mandate to fly APC's flag. These are serious pressure. Atiku does not talk much. When Tinubu won the APC primary, Atiku said he congratulated him for a Hard Won Victory. Atiku knows what it takes Tinubu to win. Atiku knows people have committed suicide because people they helped and trusted so much betrayed them.

Now, after winning, all shrines, marine and satanic prophets, diviners, enchanters and covens are working against him because they have seen the STAR that he is becoming the President. If he becomes the President, all those Marines and Satanic prophets that have prophesied against him will collapse with their prophecies.

Apart from nervous breakdown from failing health, Concentrated Spiritual attacks can affect somebody mentally.

Coincidentally, Sanwoolu is a member of Mountain of Fire and Miracle Ministry (MFM). In the mid 90s to late 90s, Prophet D. K Olukoya spoke and carried out extensive teaching on a subject called - The Spirit of Error. The Spirit of Error is a very bad spirit. It disgraces somebody and caused great mistake. It is a great attack.

I did human psychology and various intelligence courses. Nervous breakdown, mental illness and dementia are different from each other. Spirit of error as preached by Prophet DK Olukoya is quite different but that is what happened in the case of Tinubu. Slip of Tongue is an unconscious error. A person that recognises that a very creative person with high level of ingenuity can turn stone to gold, that is; can turn situation around for good but ended up saying wrong comparison of situations.

In Presidency, most of those negative energies will not be around. Political pressure and pressure of governance are not negative energies or negative pressure. When you are in power, there is an internal energy that is automatically generated. Tinubu will overcome the pressure.
Becoming a president doesn’t make you superhuman. If it were so abacha wouldn’t have died, yaradua wouldn’t have died, Stella obasanjo wouldn’t have died. Buhari was incapacitated for months after he became president and buhari was arguably physically stronger than tinubu is now. Why are you even making this about Igbos and SS?

Yea ... that got my attention. If someone only listened ... not knowing who he is or the situation ... with the slurring they would believe he was half drunk.... definitely not in control of his ability to speak fluently. Now I'm wondering... is he under heavy medications? .... did he suffer a minor stroke? ... since that can affect speech. Is it his mental and physical health have deterioted to this extent? This is not good.
I also noticed his hands... his left hand in particular.... seems like that is the one out of control. Was good for him to form a fist to hide the trembling fingers ... but with open hand against side of the podium... the shaking was obvious.
The tortoise has left the shell ... I can't understand how sooo many can't see that..... it's an empty shell.
Notice those supporting this have ALWAYS been the same group of people behind buhari. The same group of maniacs who take relish in the suffering of the masses. Their first line of distraction is always to throw jabs at the easterners.

Thanks. I have just seen a very constructive and objective analysis on nairaland on 2023 presidential election.

I spent 6 years in a Federal University in IBO land several years ago and I know how shallow minded and retrogressive they are when it comes to thinking pattern. The worst thing is that nobody on earth can correct them even in the presence of open fact and truth and they prefer to die in their illusion. That is what happened during Biafra and of recent at Owerri when the killed Gulak and Kyari was sent there to deal with ESN.

In Yoruba land, nobody grows in isolation. There is always age mates and and major events that happened around the period of birth and while growing up. Is it not madness to say Tinubu is Obasanjo or late Sonekan or Abiola's age mate? Can Tinubu be Baba Adebanjo's age mate? The IBOS will believe such because of their beclouded thinking pattern and they can never be corrected.

As you said, Baba Adebanjo, a nonagenarian, a very old man is still very sound constructively. We have many of them. At 78, Awolowo was still very constructive, same is Zik. Your observation on Tinubu failing health is one major cause of these errors. This is compounded critically by pressures mounted on him spiritually, mentally and physically over the years till date.

Tinubu carry the pressure of bringing Buhari to power from SS and SE people. Tinubu faced serious pressure within APC before Oshiomhole was removed as APC Chairman and serious pressure after his removal.
From my observation, tinubu developed a nervous illness which affects his physical and mental coordination. That is why you see the shaking hands and lapse in speech articulation…when you throw in the forced political meetings and physical exertions demanded of him you get what you see now…it beggars the question why is he contesting? Because believe me when I say that the stress will double if he becomes the president. Do we need another absentee president? So that political vultures and their families alone will share the carcass of whatever that is left of Nigeria?

Trump was in his 70s and talked pretty confidently. Even Biden in his old age didn't shy away from debating. Buhari and Tinubu are much older than they claim to be: let them go and enjoy their retirement. Don't think like a thug to consider Tinubu because he'll be the gate for Shettima, the bokoharam man, to rule. Yorubas do not be deceived. As Northern Muslims don't value Yoruba Muslims, that's the way you're see the obvious way the north will rule if una vote their puppet, Tinubu.
Or maybe trump and Biden did well in debates and press conferences because they still have a sound mind and body…I have an uncle in his 90s. He can still walk and converse in clear lucid terms. Tinubu is not just battling age, he is battling a failing body due to illness…tinubu is not older than obasanjo and many other notable elderly Nigerians today.

Ever wondered why it's mostly learned and responsible people that aligns with Obi's vision? Many Yorubas who have the capacity to look beyond tribal and religious sentiments are also aligning with the birth of a new Nigeria. Even the old people who understand that for too long, we have been taken for granted, are aligning with Obi because Obi represents the power of the people. If we can successfully bring Obi in, then we can also take him out speedily if he messes up! That's the ideology that I fuçk with. I want the power to come back to the people. Let us upset the current establishment and replace it with one that owes its loyalty to the people and not just a few individuals. Tinubu is qualified, but he's too frail, the same-faith ticket is a big NO for me, and the thought of Shettima as the Vice President scares the bejeezus out of me. Atiku as VP was a very slippery fellow, but I like his liberal world view and I think he's a nationalist, unlike Buhari. But both men are incredibly corrupt, both of them are very old, and they belong to the old establishment that kept us where we are today. The Obidient movement represents a youth-centric establishment driven solely by Nigerian youths. I will choose that anyday! Welcome to the fold, @Odewaleadesoye. It is also my wish to see Oga Mynd44 in the fold, I suspect he's a tech bro, and an Obi presidency will favour technocrats like him and Oga Seun very well.
Nigerians said the same thing when they voted in buhari. But alas! Buhari proved too hard and brutal to remove in 2019 or even to be held accountable. Obi on the other hand( just like GEJ) will not struggle against the will of the people if they decide they no longer want him. He go jejely comot just like Jonathan. Vote men who won’t see themselves as lords over the people. Men who have a conscience, men who listen and entertain criticism, men who are easily accessible.
