this is hurtful and an example of what happens when just one member of a family is the most successful the pressure is on the person can u imagine then asking him to build houses for them and pay then monthly wages for what work have they done for him I. am not against giving Ur family the best when u have it but family too u just gotta have compassion and try to achieve greatness too one eyed man in the land of the blind it does not take long before he also looses the eye

If you call yourself a man, you better know what's a need for anyone to stop them from coming to you more often... This is like showing them the pond and the hook etc to fish...
We humans want a lot but our needs are best. Will he be happy to be in the receiving end or the giving?
I prefer the giving and that's why God bless us not for our sole self but to be a blessing to others. Though I don't advise those others to be lazy but he can do something for them to improve their life and lessen the burden on himself

When did mou say adebayor was a troublemaker??

When he was on loan in Madrid and Mourinho was the manager...

eazisky:
Eleyi gidi gan!
but y d guy no quikly give 20 naira b4 d traffic hold up? all these would have been averted

You are corruption personified.

madgoat:
Kudos to dat husband... But the guy messed up big time. He should have me it 10 hot slaps with some punches to follow. Thats the way to pass across d msg to her

No! He won't like to dent the beautiful wife he has...

akinboyepelumi9:
The Man is to be blame jare, Why didn't he report her to her Family?? I am sure the family knows her true Colour, and would have mentioned it in the process of rebuking her. She might have been the area fighter and pretend to be "Madam Peace" whenever she's with him and his family.

What did you call him? A man! Not everything he sees in his union will he tell his people after all who married her in the family for him if not his sole acceptance and doing.
No man will like his family looking bad on his wife until it goes hell way.
The man was too gentle... I am against beating a woman but some of them need it because of their stupid nature of taking advantage of a man's quality. No good wife will even hit the husband.
For me, I would have given her the benefit of doubt for the first time if the holy spirit was on me because I know it's hard for me, but the. 2nd time I will bamboozle her send her home to stay with the mum so that she'll advice her on how her father would have killed her if she did it to him.
Thanks.

Buhari is a mass movement, not just a person's name. Whoever that tries to impede on the progress of the movement, will be crushed by the people.

Don't worry, have you heard of the "mixed multitude"?
I knew we Nigerians will want to wake up every morning rushing to the nearest vendor or probably nairaland to find out the latest in his regime If and only If he will fight corruption but remember, a true leader lives by example.

naijainfogalery:

lyntiffany:

There caption reads thus - Enugu the pride of the east.
Anambra the light and the political power of the east can't seem to remember others.
Pls bear with me.

Thanks and be blessed!

If they love him, pray for him and leave him alone. The sister apparently started the drama by going to the media,leave him alone. It's not by force to support you, after all she's not disabled The other siblings can also take care of their Mum. If he didn't become a footballer won't the family survive

My dear, since Adebayor is should he forsake them?
Mind you, in one way or the other the family contributed to his height now like it or not... Do you know why God flourish one first in the family?
It's to be an Iroko tree in that family that will shield, shelter and be a domain for others... A source tap never runs dry. Family is the highest thing anyone needs after God.
The siblings should just leave him but pray for God to touch him because from my experience and conclusion, Adebayor is ill mannered;
1. I am a man u fan but Adebayor caused chaos in Arsenal before leaving especially with Wenger.
2. Morinho in Madrid said that Adebayor is a trouble maker and a confusion and that they won't sign him after the loan deal.
3. Adebayor was fined after scoring his former club, Arsenal and ran a mile to celebrate the goal in the presence of Arsenal fans (mock) when other players will pretend not to be happy which show respect.
4. AVB was sacked and Abebayor took it to tweeter now how much play time does he get under his bet on this present manager if he is good as he mocked the past?
Do I need to say more for you to understand?
We all need our family, even if they don't care we do... Family is a big force.
No matter who Adebayor's mum is, if she curse him as a root and blood that brought Adebayor into existence... Life will really mess him up. We all have our challenges with family and mum but the way we handle it shows how responsible we are.
Thanks

Guys guys just take a chill pill of all these Igbo this Igbo that, yes we are progressing but let's not make this out of proportion we are not the only region in Nigeria.
If anyone wish to know how each state in S/E looks like pls they are threads opened already for that and stop the comparison is becoming an eye sore.
Pls all states in Nigeria has it's own uniqueness.

Could you please drop a link to what you've just said?

tv05457:
I'll give it to Abiriba in Abia. Even though it's not a city but a village but that's the most beautiful, developed, village I've seen in Nigeria

Check out the pictures on the first page of this thread
https://www.nairaland.com/1335746/post-photos-igbo-village-houses

Now if that's not a nice village, I don't know what is.

My dear, the day I visted abiriba for a hotel mate father's burial I was totally astonished at the road, landscape and buildings... I am from Imo state but truly, abiriba is a small london as it's called by its people... I fell in love with the place, beside who doesn't like a goodie?

MarieSucre:
Then let me tell you about two tests I heard of from some girlfriends. A Uniabuja student had two guys in mind(She's a christian, one of the guys is a muslim and the other a christian). She TESTED both of them by telling them she cheated on them, the christian guy reacted violently and threw her out while the muslim one forgave her, now she is married to him with a son going on 4 years.


The second test was a girlfriend who told her boyfriend she needed some amount of money for some personal purposes to TEST if the guy is financially viable down the line. The guy could not deliver and called her a gold-digger. She is married to a guy she feels can suit her financially(and no... he does not hit her).


Both stories are true stories, very true to the point i know one of them personally.

Why do you think of these TESTS?

These are two different test and their magnitudes also differs.
The first test is very matured to me and I support it but the second test is a bit shabby... If a girlfriend I have know ask me for money for her personal stuffs, my dear what comes to my heart first is how long have we known and what is her personality before taking any conclusion...
Albeit as I've said, it's good to pull the string of test sometimes on a lady/dude you want to spend the rest of your life with...

MarieSucre:
Test are stupid. Especially between Adults.

Ok! I now get you, what then will be adviseable between adults with a to be intention?

MarieSucre:
Taaaaah! Thats absolute balderdash. I remember reprimanding a friend when she came to ask for advice about getting married. She had two guys who were willing and she wanted to test them by either telling them she needed a huge sum of money(test for their financial comitment) or tell them she cheated(test for their emotional commitment).

Good morning! so what do you mean pls?

creepsyme:
tnks for ur sincereity! first impresssion they say matters, hw can a guy bring me into a dirty house for the very first time? I dont give a hoot if u r testing me or not, at least not on the first date. he may possibly be needing a help to clean up for him after then he dumps u and den pile up again for anoda lady to come clean, it goes on and on.....

When a man has concluded on you dear, the first impression has already been done before you gave him the time to invite you to his home and he is ready to know the type of lady you are before he falls head to toe for you in totality...
This situation isn't a direct thought stuff but blended with intelligence.
Can you be smart enough to ask you why must this kitchen look like this on my first visit to his home and not a mistake visit but he invited me?
If you can ask yourself this question in such instance then you will start having options to weigh...
Mind you, I don't support the dirty nonsense but I am being rational as a being I am.
Thanks

ThoniaSlim:
My dear if you get married to a man with this mentality then you in for a long ride!

If you think it takes just your cleaning abilities to make a marriage work then you in for a rude shock.

A man who measures your ability to be a wife based on your cleaning skills is a man you do not wanna have any business with. Trust me.

Please what is the yardstick for measuring the ability of a lady at first date or anytime?

TrishaP:
My dear just be real to yourself. For a record, I'm not lazy and I'm sure that info isn't important to you. secondly according to the op/pic, it says first date so obviously we haven't started dating yet but about to. What is the guy trying to imply now, to test me or what?! Everybody is different my dear, just because miss A would get her ass to work immediately because she desperately wants to date the dude doesn't mean miss B would want to.

I have to come on here, just because you think the other lady was doing it out of desperation doesn't mean she is... That's solely you thought dear... Well, when being good or naturally hard working is part of you dear, you can't cloak it because it's you... A guy can do ot to test you sincerely just as a girl might outline her assignment to test a dude.

Deejavuu:
I'm telling you. Some girls and this marriage/relationship ish.

Reminds me of this quote

In every relationship you keep if it's not for positive purpose dear, you are at the lost end...
Being good isn't what you do because of your relationship but it's who you are though I don't support that untidy kitchen stuff... Before you made a YES with the person don't you think he will have some downsides and you discovering it now does it mean you should start hitting your feet on the floor that this must be done this way or use your intelligence as a matured and well groomed lady to correct him that such thing is a No! No!! No!!! Situation that it's not good for his personality and yours if he doesn't care about his and you won't like it repeating itself again?
You just decided to react to the way the guy who left that stupid dirt in that kitchen anticipated and this means that you can't add any meaningful value in his flaws that'll be his thought which is a fact.
We are in a relationship to urgment someone's deficiency and they too to us.
I was thought by my father and mum to do things and never look at the second person because it makes me matured, home groomed and superior.
But please cleanest is next to godliness.
Thanks.

I support this, especially the party faithful part because most of our politicians are greedy and selfish (not just cat fish but shark) *wink*

philips70:
What are you on about? Is the man who the buck is going to stop on his table not from the north? If that statement is true then it's a welcomed development. The Yorubas have been known to be after good governance and not who and who keeps power.

You said the yorubas have been after good governance, please which of the Nigerian's governance has been good then you tell me where the yorubas have?
We haven't gotten any good governance in Nigeria even GEJ isn't...
I think we would have had it been that Umar Musa Yara'adua was alive to complete his tenure... I love that man no matter I am an Igbo... Please let's start telling ourselves the truth because we all want Nigeria on the forward match and lies or tribalism doesn't...
Our leaders have been disappointment to us we just have to accept it and nullify the disappointment now so it won't linger for part of our loins to face these devilish challenges.
Whatever GMB should do as a true president of democracy that is good for Nigeria is all I crave.
The problem is that when a bee stings one, he runs away at the first sight of a big fly and don't blame people for being sceptical, he has to prove them otherwise.

Jeffoo:
The guy and his team talk too much during the campaign.

anyway I hope he deliver some of his promise sha especially electricity and youth unemployment

We need Power; this is the beginning of the game... It's the queen of the cheese of our economy.
If he can achieve only this he is definitely a saviour to us... I pray to God he does, what God doesn't permit won't happen, GMB has something for Nigerian but we wait to see if it's positive or negative but I pray it's positive because I am a natural optimist.

Jeffoo:
Buhari nor be god

human can't bring about the needed change we want

But his political campaign and strategies was that of God... To whom must is given much is expected... He just need to do a lot though not all...

omostar:
And can't you see it is those same bad muslims that call every other person(including muslims) infidels?

So you don't like the word "infidel" and you mean if you are a muslim you are not infidel from your post...
What's then the difference if an infidel should be killed through a Jihad and another; a muslim want to kill a fellow through terrorism?
What's good for the goose is good for the gander don't you think?
My bible tells me, for all have sin and come short of the glory of God even my Pastor because our human nature is sinful, so we don't call any infidel but ask you to reconcile with the Almighty because His grace is ever sufficient through Christ.
Imagine every other religion reacting like the muslim what type of world will we have?
When swimming you can't see your back but your neighbour does... If Islam is peaceful other religions will be the judge.
Thanks and bless you!

One thing I am sure is that the true reasons of the sacking will be put in display by the new administration when it ascends... I'll just keep quite and watch because the sacking might be positive or negative, so who is God to tell?

olapluto:
Islam doesnt need no redemption, the media does. Anyway the media is just giving you folks news you want to hear. The smart ones know this and see through the media gimmick.

So all these terrorism claiming their apex aim is for total Islam and Jihad blah! blah!! blah!!! Are movies and sup opra organised by the medias for the masses to purchase huh?
My brother, even a centipede has eyes or sense motions and things so I wonder why you said that?
Or are other religious fighting to mar Islam via the medias?
If you believe that anyone who is not an islam like you is an infidel which is taught in your mosque, then the problem is Islam and not the media so I will let your conscience judge you with my points.
Thanks and God bless you.

olapluto:
UK is beautifying ISIS for these people. THe amount of coverage is encouraging youths to join ISIS. Why do they not talk about positive actions doen by Muslims on daily basis?

So what do you mean, we should go back to pre medieval era where publication is almost null?
Remember, A single wrong can tarnish a thousand good but the truth is that this has become the Islam way now and what do you want others who are not to believe?
If you believe Islam to be peace, fight to redeem it from the defilers because those are the people you guys ought to label INFIDEL and not those far better than....
Well, you know what I mean

This is one of the reasons dubai is crying and banning countries because of indecent dressing...

Every other thing falls on our government policies to help innoson and in return Nigeria... This will spring up a lot of industries discouraging cheap exportation of irons to china and usa thereby increase their need for it on us giving our economy and currency more value... Create more employment... When the exportation of the cars starts then the want for more alloy will encourage the mining of Tin ore and others in the North and rapid industrialisation springs up...
That'll complete the revenue diversification we've been craving for: Oil, Mining of Metals and Composites, Agriculture...
Unemployment will be waved bye bye!

okooloyun1:
With hardwork I will join the men in banana island soon.

No! No!! No!!!
With hardwork garnished with grace you will... These people aren't the apex of hard work but just that God graced their hustle.

What will be the baby's citizenship now


What citizenship does a child have if they are born on an international flight?#thinkingoutloud

They have the citizen of the country's flag on the flight... I remeber I was thought this in my university days in the course: state and economy years back.
It's not only about flight it's about whose territory was the baby born.
Thanks.

Ilekeh:
Awwww stories that touch!

How does that change the fact that Igbos forsake Igboland for Yorubaland?

Good morning, dear!
It's because they are travellers more than the yorubas and they love diversity when it comes to surviving and livelihood...
Many people don't know the value of what they have so need the help of others to free the cloak on its importance...
Did I hear you say forsake?
That's the part you don't know the right word to use, how can some one who trace an opportunity to another land still harness the opportunity in the land and send the resources to his place for betterment of his life and people, still call from his place little and helpless others to teach then the way to providence in the foreign state which they re-invest in their places 'forsake' his land?
They are not foolish dear, they are wise... Just take such mindset off and understand the intricate part of the igbos then you will better yourself, though every ethnic group has an intricate part that'll wow others.
Thanks.
