That's carelessness & laziness on the men's part, because as a man when your stomach starts protruding you ought to know that your body is getting outta shape but, instead of hitting the gym nor exercise regularly they we will resort to hit more bottles of beer & plates of isi ewu or ugba at beer palour. As a man, I can't tell my wife to look like Beyonce nor Genevieve for me while I look like her father nor carry 6months undeliverable pregnancy about. it's uncalled for. As a matter of fact, I don't joke with exercise at all, whenever I wake up in the morning I do my 100 press-ups(count down), 50 push-ups & 50 sit-ups and whenever I look at the mirror I love who I see there.


I promised myself that I can't watch beer impregnate me or other wise.

luminouz:
Really? Shuu! So a super rich dude will be turned down for a super fit dude? U can lie o! Are u related to Lai Mohammed?

genieluv:
See what i mean. U made mention of married men ordering their wives to pound yam for them to eat at night ba?
Which kind of woman will be serving her husband swallow food at night before bed? Pounded yam for that matter. Only an illiterate or ignorant wife who has no sense of proper nutrition and diet will do such.
For me i think improper meals lead to pot belly stomachs more than beer or lack of going 2d gym (i may be wrong though)

havennie:
Thank u for this thread Op.
For me, any guy with a protruding stomach that comes my way in the name of toasting me, i turn him down immediately, i dont want to know about his money or family name. I just get irritated at the sight of it seriously.

genieluv:
LoL, Op abeg take it easy on these our lazy ass men o.

But seriously this thing is really annoying. I think we the ladies might share some blame in this because we do not encourage or chastise them on these things. We act like it doesn't matter and before you know it, your hubby has developed a 'pregnancy', a baby he will never deliver.
Imagine u a pregnant wife hugging your own pregnant husband, The hands will not be able to reach each other due to the pregancy obstacle.

Cutehector:
Papikush please beer is and will never be the sole reason why some men grow pot bellies!!!!
You have improper diet
You have abuse of alcohol
You have less exercise
Some might be due to tumor growth

ojoisimi:
Mr man, stop these lies now. haba! I'm an irele guy and I have never seen any ikale person that says such. its something else these days when one person from his far away clan will be claiming to know more than the ondo onile.

orimsamsam:
the guy is a bloody fool. I don't knw wht always wrong with all this Igbos, lying to support there selfish argument.
Ilaje, ikale akoko . they are pure yoruba

YourNemesis:
All the Edo speaking towns have been systematically demarcated into Edo state. Infact Ondo lost Sobe to Edo state because the town spoke an Edo-ish language, while Edo lost Imeri to Ondo for being a Yoruba speaking town. As it stands today if more demarcation was to be done on language basis, Edo state will be the one to lose more settlements to Ondo and not the other way round.
As for Ikales and Ilajes what else are they if not Yoruba? that you met one or two of them saying they are not does not mean anything. Moreso, they might have said that in an environment where the anti Yoruba sentiments are very high to protect themselves.
Their towns are Ayetoro, Mahin, Igbokoda, Atijere, Shabomi, Obe Nla, Olotu, Idogun, Ugbo Nla, Oroto, Alagbon etc. All Yoruba. Infact the Ikales and Ilajes are the people the ijaws of Ondo are mixed with linguistically and culturally, that makes them not fully Ijaw.

You belong in the other room because clearly you have nothing to contribute in THIS room.

Hahaha, an escape route for dumbness.
Well i decline to argue further. But it all remains that Abuja is the fastest growing city and urban area in Africa and among the fastest in the world, ahead of Lagos.
Within few decades from now, it will catch up with Lagos and eventually become the largest urban area in Africa and tax from Lagos state will still be continually used in developing Abuja and very soon neigbouring Nasarawa and Niger states.
Kano is a precolonial city. Ibadan has been a capital since pre independent times. Lagos has been a city for up to 100 years. Abuja is just about 20 years old and it is now dragging for 2nd largest urban area. Only God knows what another 20years of development will turn it to.
God bless Babangida for taking away capitalship from Lagos to Central Nigeria my sweet middlebelt region.
At least no omonile, owomida or agberos in Abuja to harass citizens. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

omonnakoda:
Answer the questions and stop introducing extraneous "facts"

What is the population of Abuja can you provide a figure.
What is the source of the last picture you posted. Link please

At 5827846 registered voters ,Lagos state had the highest number of voters in the country,Kaduna had 3.3 million. I can see that your style is to just make wild and unsubstantiated assertions without bothering about their veracity.Truth is clearly an irrelevant inconvenience.
Most people who vote in Abuja are indigenes you claim. how do you know? Abuja had 0ver 800 000 registered voters in the last election you say MOST are indigenes for you to know that you must have evidence. By most do you mean 51% or 99% and crucially HOW DO YOU KNOW?

omonnakoda:
You claimed Abuja is the Second Most populated city in Nigeria. Does this new information you have provided buttress that claim?. A simple YES or NO please

By the way what is the source of your post above. Does it not have a source. I have provided already THREE DIFFERENT SOURCES of Nigeria's largest cities by population.None of them rank Abuja second. NOT ONE.

The fact is of course there are variations with source based on their reference points but in no way is Abuja a bigger metropolis than Kano.

The logic of spillover and "unofficial" metropolis that you apply to Abuja applies likewise everywhere.

Population wise Abuja is NEVER our second city. How many people voted in Abuja during the last elections?

Ranting like an illiterate? None of your parents will dare greet meet sitting down in real life. You think everyone on nairaland is your coeval? What is the population of Abuja is the question.Stop going round in circles

Asuokaa:
Wait oo is kwara a northern state, I thought we speak yoruba and not hausa

YourNemesis:
Nothing correct about that.

The people of Ondo state are Yoruba in the majority like 96%+ and an Ijaw minority mostly in Ese Odo.
Where would you find Isoko, Urhobo and whatever else it is that you are listing u there? lol
You people should stop cooking up poo...

omonnakoda:
Your style is to rant and abuse rather than face the issues let us leave my mind an myopia and address the issue .
You said that Abuja has the second largest Metropolitan population in Nigeria. I have called you out on this.

What is the population of Abuja rather than address that you embark on a meaningless rigmarole and personal abuse. Your claim is a bogus and meaningless one. This is one list of Nigerian cities by population based on the 2006 census. What is the source of YOUR own claim about Abuja?

dragonking3:
Ondo is just like another delta State were you will see ijaw, urhobo, isoko, Benin, Yoruba, itsekiri people and more sef.

The good thing is that the yorubas there are much more friendly and hospitable unlike the other ones that are very tribalistic in other states.

omonnakoda:
I am typing nonsense.Kaduna was designed........really? when by whom.
You made an assertion that Abuja is the second most populated metropolitan city in Nigeria. OK simple question. What is the the population ? You are telling me Abuja is artificial and its indigenes can apply for citizenship of Cotonou. Abuja was carved out of Nassarawa udonminnit!!
All the twaddle about Warri LGA means what? What LGA constitutes Lagos?
YOU are the one that used the TERM "metropolitan" now you are talking of Warri LGA .Is there any city in Nigeria that is just one LGA??
See logic
What is the relationship between cement and garri? They are both mixed with water abi?

Sanni45:
U are right but that doesn't make the state any less a Yoruba state.The primary ethnic group is Yoruba. History taught us non-yoruba in came after Afonja allowed them.Do a statistics of d ethnic groups see which has a higher percentage.

Sagman1:
Bobo Ondo is an oil producing state so it's not only Niger deltans that has militants so to speak...... And also some parts of ondo are riverine areas e.g Ilaje area and we all know ijaw ppl love riverine areas and are normally found in such areas.. So let me enlighten you, these ijaw ppl migrated there for their fishing occupation and are not Ondo state indigenes so it's just normal to reiterate that Ondo state is a Yoruba state.....next time be sure of something or better still stay enlightened just in case you wanna comment on issues such as this in future ✌

omonnakoda:
What a ridiculous thing to say are you including the parts of
Aba that has spilled into Port Harcourt or the parts of Warri that has spilled into the ocean or of Kaduna that spilled into the desert in your comparison

SouthWestBlood:
Port Harcourt as you can see isn't part of the Eastern states we all know. If the Yorubas in Kogi decide to go with Arewa, I wouldn't be surprised too. I think that's where your argument is valid.

Oblang:
What abt ph? The issue is lagos has always bin a commercial city and no one can claim he built it to be a commercial city not even the govt. I have heard stories of those old grandpas and grandmas travelling to lagos by foot for various commercial activities. As a matter of fact lagos is a state and get state allocations just like every other states so what's stopping other places to develop like lagos if they want to.

omonnakoda:
second largest metropolitan population?? How many people exactly are you talking about? Are they more than Kano,Ibadan,Benin,Port Harcourt or Kaduna?

SouthWestBlood:
The one that makes me laugh is when an igbo person asks if a Yoruba person is from Lagos, that why is he/she claiming Lagos. They forget that this is not about state created by some people, but about the Yoruba race itself. It's like asking why an Imo person is claiming Enugu. They are both of igbo land! When the igbos put up questions like this, it irks me.

Oblang:
Tell me a city where u sit comfortably in ur house and make money. Have u asked urself why abuja despite the focused development, has not attained the kind of commercial status of lagos. Lagos has bin a focal commercial hub of the country since time immemorial (it can only get better). Also why has ph not attain such level as lagos? The truth is gegraphically, lagos has bennefitted..

Sanni45:
Hey,miss,forget about d geo-political zones,which is for administrative convenience.Kwara might be full of many tribes..It is a Yoruba state..Go to offa,omupo,Ajase opo etc.Then u will get what I am saying.

Laveda:
I don't fancy stuffs like that, I even hardly wear ear-rings.
