apart from the bolded, the tone of your post is aggressive & also insulting it's more of "listen, let me lecture you" funnily,yours is almost like the man who is unaware that his son is in jail abroad but boosting that his son is a honest & uptight man, meanwhile his audience is aware of the truth You are the man Your son is Nigeria 2 Likes 1 Share |

homerac7: I am not of the opinion that nuclear plants are unsafe, I don't need lectures on fail-safe's. I'm an automation control specialist no matter how unlikely the event of a meltdown is, should it happen, nigeria is not ready to manage it remember the BP oil spill, it made news headline, such events don't occur all the time at least on that magnitude but it did So when it happens in Nigeria regardless of how long it takes, the damage is my concern!! learn to pass points across without insulting folks, no one knows it all We are all here to learn 1 Like 1 Share |

homerac7: you aren't getting the point, Nigeria has no maintenance culture, you brought up the BOOT in defense to the post you quoted to prove that it's out of Nigeria's hand i.e that Russia will build & operate & transfer But the question is after it is transferred, can Nigeria maintain the facility?
if the refinery couldn't be maintained after the transfer, what makes the nuclear plant any differ? You couldn't handle that which was less complex, how then will you be able to handle that which is complex The preventive & maintenance policy for refinery could not be followed, how will that of a nuclear plant be any different
@the bolded, the reason you aren't hearing is becos of corruption & coverup So trust me, when there is an abuse in management process of the nuclear waste, same thing will happen you won't hear, you will only get to hear if its a major one I work in the Niger delta region, there are loads of spills in varying levels on a weekly basis, but do you get to hear them? The answer is NO Am speaking based on facts, what I see with my eyes. speaking of supervision, radioactive materials (source) for xray were brought to our site & kept in our office meanwhile there is a bunker meant for such. Management took that decision & kept mum about it People were passing to & for without knowing there radioactive material was there!!
@the bold, yet you corrected the fellow by saying scientist don't run plants but technicians but here again you listed scientists as one of those that run plants. What an irony!!!
@the bolded, pls these have never been a factor, it has always been becos of corruption There is a federal government project currently going on in the Niger delta region, they have spent 5yrs now with nothing to show for it, billions have been sunk in & they are nowhere near mechanical completion, just because certain individuals are getting a cut We can argue on & on, the point is not until a good maintenance culture & a robust emergency rescue plan is put in place. Nigeria shouldn't go nuclear 4 Likes 1 Share |

bushdoc9919: Pls what do you mean human error? Is Nigeria immune a from such? Look at the last flood catastrophe, how did we handle it? The various bombing that has taken place, how was it handled? See corpses being carried in wheelbarrow & ambulance being used to carry more than one patient nuclear plant is good, the question is can we maintain it, in the event of an emergency can we handle it? We both know that the answer is NO Even if we want the Russians to build & operate it forever, you & I know that when there is an emergency, our corrupt leaders will take a bribe & look the other way What was the outcome of the botched immigration recruitment? 4 Likes 2 Shares |

homerac7: Mr knowledge!! what happens if the "stipulated period" elapses, can Nigeria still maintain it? Before you answer, remember our refineries were BOOT too
Mr knowledge, you would have replaced the scientist with technicians besides there is no way a nuclear power station will run without a scientist in its employs Why spend that much to build something that carries much risk, it's not as though its establishment is a complete solution to our power problems We haven't been able to maintain our roads, our gas plants, our power plants, our refineries, even traffic light or street light yet we want to go nuclear with our penchant for cutting corners, how do you think the nuclear waster will be disposed? we have abundant gas reserve, why not focus on Gas plant construction/power station Can't more hydro stations be built 1 Like 1 Share |

prettythicksme: By guy I hope you mean husband but if boyfriend, I will like you to have a rethink about the social network part & ATM. Couples who divorced were once the loveliest couples & never imagined they will part ways someday. The social network password ought to be private, if things should go south between you & your partner, that can become a tool of destruction against you. Remember when the human heart is broken or grieved, it can damn all consequences just to get revenge That I refuse to share my towel with you or tooth brush doesnt mean I don't love you! Hygiene standard dictates I have mine while you have yours it's just an advice & I hope you consider it 1 Like |

Wow!! Gods creativity & ingenuity at work Meanwhile in other threads there is a war or words & ideology!! That a women who is capable of terminating such process or has terminated such process regardless of the number of times shouldn't tell the intending spouse!! isn't that pure wickedness It's not enough evil for them that the woman has committed abortion or abortions, that she has cut short God's creation before its time or that she has even committed murder, they drive it further to say its a past event & REPENT & move on & don't tell your "intending better half" CC:babyosisi cococandy Dinachi ,timbuktou keppyy,jahblessme,bukatyne,apextitan,pickabeau1,njokusboy, |

babyosisi: if my wife to be is hypertensive, I need to see her readings, I need to see that she has been taking care of herself well, I need to see she is abstaining from what she was asked to abstain from If she isn't doing any of this & my efforts to make her take her health serious, then I will bail Cos in my thinking, is she continues this way in marriage, it will be my time & money in & out of the hospital A lady that has had an abortion is more likely to have a damaged done to system than the one who hasn't, hence my request for the test let me digress a little, if you are someone who has spiritual problems, whatever it might be, that's not enough to deter me I will only run if a. You aren't aware you have one & my efforts to make you see you have one is abortive b. you are aware but you aren't doing nothing about it or living a carefree spiritual life BUT if see the opposite to a&b, then I will gladly join you cos I know that it will become 2 against the problem Imagine getting married to someone who is being oppressed by the devil, she doesn't care or still living in sin It means in that union I will be the one doing all the praying & fighting in a fight that I inherited cos I got married also imagine hiding it from me, only to get married & be informed that there is a fight o Hope you are getting my point 1 Like |

babyosisi: Madam you didn't get me at all!! I won't subject my wife to be to fertility test just like that, I will only ask for one if I know she has had an abortion. if my wife to be has been raped, I will want to know if she has gotten over it, if she has forgiven herself & raper. If not, then counseling session cos I don't want to be her victim imagine getting married to a lady that hates men as a result of the rape incident, a lady who has probably vowed to deal with men, you expect me to marry such a lady? I will do my best that she goes for counseling & if she isn't open to that, then good bye to her The spirit being all this is "I love & i'm willing to go all through the way with you but you have to prove or show that you are ready for change, you have to show me that you are serious fighting that stuff(whatever it is) It is on this premise that I will gladly join you in the fight. the point is this, we are going to be one so don't hide anything from me, neither will I hide from you If am to join you in fighting or battling anything, give me a heads up!! You can't make me run from pillar to post, from one hospital to the other when the fault was yours & you never brought me into the picture & now you suddenly want me to join you in fighting it That's not fair!!! my asking for those test or whatever it is, is not to be judgmental or to get a perfect person but to prepare my mind & myself for the battles ahead. Imagine getting married to a diabetic & such was hidden from you, only to be revealed in marriage. I will suddenly stop eating some stuff just because of you either because I want to encourage you or not make you cook two diff meals etc I LOVE YOU & PLS PUT ME IN THE PICTURE!!! Past or no past!!

keppyy: I'm with you on this but if you truly love him & he is a good man, you work out something Ultimatum don't work for some folks that's where your feminine powers come in. Life ain't fair & the rules that apply to men don't apply to women especially in Africa. That being said that he barged you into running the test doesn't mean you should do the same for him. make him see reasons why it's a give & take situation, you have done your to prove to him & now it's his turn(all this has to be done in a lovey dovey manner & not in an angry or strict tone) Maybe he has nothing to hide, he could be scared of what the result will be(my first HIV test I was damned scared even though I was still a virgin, started thinking of all the romance I had been engaged in & maybe something went wrong somewhere) another thing is check his mindset, if he doesn't believe in quid pro quo, see if he is open to change, if he isn't, you can let him be(I know most guys aren't open to that) the operative words here are a.if he is a good man b.if you love him c.lovey dovey atmosphere |

Jahblessme: If you give me those answers, you jam rock cos by the time I start askinv you follow up questions on those answers, you yourself go know say the truth will be the best!! Cos you will be f Anybody that asks those questions in a Q&A style will definitely get the wrong answers!! She might even get angry & storm out Those questions ought to asked during normal convo as u said & can be asked over a period of months It's not something you ask once Heck, you might tell me you had an abortion & I will simply acknowledge Another day I will add another follow up question in a relaxed mood. Once a while I might bring it up again, just to check of your answers will match The person must not feel interrogated, hence you loose out neither must she get the whiff that you want to judge her It also has to be a committed relationship heading to marriage.

cococandy: Thanks, but if you don't give those answers, how then do I ascertain that you have changed!! I can't just take your word for it It's not enough to pass all the health test, I need to know how you lived ur life, then check if you have made changes or open to changes & also if you realized ur mistakes etc A lady who cheated in her previous relationship & sees nothing wrong in what she did all in the name if he wasn't always around, is a no no for me Imagine she kept this from me, am I not walking into a time bomb Imagine a lady who has been in 4 relationships & in those four relationships she cheated in all of them!! Isn't that a pattern? Isn't there a possibility that I will be her 5th victim? But if she tells me & I study the circumstances around all of that & see that she has realized the errors of her ways, then I can forge ahead with her But all those blanket statement of "honey, you didn't meet me as a virgin & I have a past bit all that matters is my love for you & I won't cheat on you" doesn't fly by me A trial judge needs to hear the crime, needs to see the steps carried out for restitution & see the proof that the perpetrator is truly sorry & won't repeat it, based on this he can give a ruling Those answers is for the sake of my mind, once the mind starts to play tricks on you then you know the relationship is over.

babyosisi: I know you didn't ask me, but my question will go thus Though I have to state it that it's quid pro quo, I'll be open & truthful to your questions & I expect same from you. I can't stomach lies 1. How many relationships have you been in? a. In these relationships, did you cheat on ur partner? If yes ai.how long did the affair last aii.what led to the affair & how did it end? b. where they healthy relationships, were you abused verbally or physically or sexually c.were you sexually active in these relationship The above questions is to help me ascertain if she is a damaged good & also to check if there was a pattern that repeated all through & to also see if she has turned a new leaf(assuming she was a cheat) to also check if she sought for help in terms of counseling and all of that 2.have you procured an abortion before? a. how many times & were there complications in any of the procedures b. did you go for checkup to ascertain that all was ok, I.e no complications c. Will you be willing to go for a comprehensive checkup with me 3. Do you have any child or children, if yes a. What was the circumstances that led to that birth b. is the father of the child involved in the child's life or your life or will there be a future interference ? 4.have you ever contemplated suicide or have you attempted one before(my coz once dated a lady like that, so am taking no chances on that) 5. Do you have any health condition, eg HIV, Hepatitis, sickle cell, hypertension, ulcer, asthma etc if yes a. How have you been managing it, what's your lifestyle like I ask this cos I can't be with someone who is hypertensive & is still involved in smoking & drinking (for us to be together I have to see the willingness to change or at least a pattern of trying to live a healthy life) 6. have you promised anyone marriage before? If yes, how did it end, was it amicable? There are more questions but we can peg it here, someone might say that I'm setting myself up for disappointment cos I will likely hear what I want to hear That's why I will cite my caveat emptor, if you decieve me into marriage, the day I discover the heavy weight, that's the day the union will end The answers to some of the questions throws a light into how the person has lived, the kind of crowd the person moved with, if the person has realized his or her mistakes, is willing to change etc Cc:cococandy 3 Likes |

simiolu1: Spot on!! Notice the stages & timing it took for her to reveal her past, that ought to be the advise here of know when to spill, where to spill & how to spill it!!! If she had told u all at once at the beginning, you would have fled One of my best definition of love is "to know is to love" As I know/discover you daily, my love would grow deeper for u, not until I know you I can't truly say I love you As a guy, you meet a lady you like, get to know her, start dating, as the relationship progresses it is expected that certain info be revealed Because I like you & have come to know you & understand you, I can forgive some of the errors of your past, I will be willing to put myself in your shoe & understand why you did that thing Sometimes we are slammed with info we can't handle but becos we have come to love the person, we may pull back but we go back to that person Thanks for your submission, those that want to follow the OP's advice should do so but they should be given a Caveat Emptor too imagine what they are saying that " if it doesn't have any bearing on the future of the current relationship then don't spill" How do you determine which of your past or how ur past will pop up in your future? women are good with secrets but a woman that can successfully tow the OP's line is devilish, imagine the guilt she will be carrying knowing fully well that she is deceiving the man God help us all 6 Likes |

babyosisi: YOUR ADVISE THEN, OUGHT TO BE don't spill too early!! Let the relationship progress & study your partner to know if he is serious or not & find out the best way to tell him You said above "knowing your husband as well as you do" his past won't shake you now cos you KNOW HIM. To know they say is to love!! If you had found out that he killed somebody before within 1month of your dating him, you would have fled with every inch of your life!! there have been cases where one partner revealed they had HIV, they still forged ahead with the relationship If I truly love you & I hear about ur past, I will go back to the table & lay out all the facts & weigh them if I can handle that & check to see if you have truly turned a new leaf & also the chances of a reoccurrence too. Based on all of this I will make an informed decision what's with this how many abortions has he procured ? Some girls have so lived a slutty life that they think all men are the same, so if a man has lived a normal life, he is wrong to want to know your past!!

If you say you can't cheat in a marriage, replace the above scenario with this You did all of that with Emeka before you married your hubby, your hubby ain't aware you did those wild stuffs, he sees you as a cool headed lady!! you can't tell which of your past will come hunting, so saying if it has little chance of spilling, keep it that way isn't wise 4 Likes |

I hope you are different from the OP of the thread on marital advice for newly weds & intending....
