Family / Re: 5 Things You Should Never Say To A Child by Ikville(m): 3:15am On Jun 02, 2017
DarkRebel69:


.... The truth is that many Nigerian parents are mentally and emotionally unfit to raise children.


.... yet the physical and/or verbal abuse of children is seen as a non-issue which invariably is followed by moral backings that draws from a silly quotation in a silly book that says, "Spare the rod and spoil the child"?

Did you know that in the US, a parent is killed everyday by their own child? And that one of the causes usually is when a severely abused child gets pushed beyond his/her limits? Tell me, how much longer do you think it'd take before African children begin to toy with the idea of parricide?




Inasmuch as d write up makes some sense, u r totally wrong, at least as far as d African context is concerned. In d US or UK, d govt spend billions of dollars rehabilitating deviant children in their prison system yet dey prohibit d family system from imposing discipline in diz kids. But it's different in d African societies. What is d essence of our cultures? From where i come from, it takes a whole village to bring up a child. So how cud a whole village get it wrong?
We don't need bestsellers on child to know how to raise our kids. Guess what, most of diz bestselling authors don't even hav kids! Or want any. We were raised up d traditional ways...pampering, discipline, luv...see how we turned out.

Oh, he just murdered d "made in Aba" shoe industry! Aba shoes already gained world recognition, daz why u see d Chinese shoe makers wanting to associate wit d brand.

Family / Re: 17.2% Of My Monthly Salary Goes To My Wife & Yet... by Ikville(m): 6:49pm On Mar 24, 2017
Dude, u r d man! But to be brutally honest wit u, u dont hav a wife. She's more like a domestic staff who, aside from doing all d house chores, also hav babies for u. If i gave my wife a fraction of my monthly income, it wudnt nearly almost a 'SALARY'. Apparently she realizes her actual roles in d house than u do, probably why she augments her 'SALARY' every chance she gets. If u dont wake up & change how w things work in d house, she's gonna walk away from doz 'duties' once she achieves her financial target or wen u lose ur job. & guess wot, it wont be her fault cos u programmed her dat way!
But u claim u luv each otha, so i guess dat can still make it work. Gud luck, man!

U r so very wrong...UR CHILD is UR RESPONSIBILITY no matta d circumstances of his conception. Cos d mother is not ur wife now makes d child any less urs? U can waive ur responsibility to d mother but u t OBLIGED to cater for d child in different capacities as d father.

Politics / Nigeria: State Of The Nation by Ikville(m): 10:13am On Feb 06, 2017
This post may be quite a "writeful" but if u can patiently read thru it, u will begin to realise how how d country slipping furtha into coma.


What John Zibiri said about Nigeria:
I worked and lived in Abuja for 18 years. I ran my own private company from 2001 until 2014.
Two million of the likes of Buhari cannot change Nigeria.
Everything is wrong with Nigeria. The Director won't give you contract except you pay up front .
The banks won't give you loan except you concede a certain percentage. .
The man supervising the contract won't pass the job except you play ball. The clerk won't pass your file for payment except you rob his palm.
The accounts department won't raise your payment voucher or cheque unless you see them. I can go on and on.
The worst thing is that it has become a norm that nobody sees anything wrong with. If you think otherwise, they begin to think you are sick and not normal. If you try to stand in there way, you put your life at risk. If you get killed there is no justice system in place to seek redress and bring the perpetrators to book.
The police is corrupt , the Judiciary is the same. Even the religious circle is not spared. Everything in Nigeria revolves around corruption. Nobody cares about anybody. No law and order. I looked from my left to right, everybody is only desperate about one thing "money".
They will kill anybody and anything that stand between them and money. I am an electrical engineer with MNSE and COREN.
The system don't care about my qualifications. Distribution and transmission jobs are given to alhajis, pastors, friends and relatives without any basic skills. I started asking myself, how do I convince my kids that education and hard work is rewarding? When fools, agberos and touts are running the country from the local govt to the Presidency.
Is this what my four sons will also go through? In 2014 I decided I have had enough. I decided I was leaving. I migrated to Australia with my family. Don't put yourself in harms way for any reason. The problem of Nigeria is in the hands of Nigerians living in Nigeria.
Try starting a gate house in your village, everybody wants to profiteer from it. The bricklayer, the carpenter, the mason and even your brother who claim to be supervising on your behalf.
They are corrupt, morally bankrupt and selfish. Everybody there thinks about himself and nobody is thinking about Nigeria .
You don't have to be the one to go there to change anything. Let those under the hammer start the revolution. I beg make you hear word.
This post is gonna anger a lot of my followers. I'm still gonna post it anyway.
Analogy of OPPRESSORS & FOOLISH CITIZENS. (A case study of Nigeria citizens & their elected oppressors).
During the Soviet dictatorship of Joseph Stalin. He was a brutal dictator with mind of his own. On one fateful day, Stalin came to Politburo meeting with a live chicken. Standing in front of audience, He started to pluck the feathers of the live chicken off one by one.
The chicken trembled in pain, blood tricking out of its pores. It gave out grievous cries, but Stalin being a cruel dictator continued without remorse plucking the feathers out until the chicken was completely naked.
After which, he threw the chicken on the ground. The naked chicken was staggering in pain. Stalin goes into his pocket and from his pockets, he took out some chicken food and started to throw it at the poor & hapless creature.
The poor chicken in pain started eating and Stalin started walking towards his seat. As he walked away, he kept dropping some feeds on the floor & the chicken followed him and sat feeding from his feet.
Joseph Stalin then turned to members of his political party leadership. He said, "This chicken represents the people".
"You must disempower them, brutalise them, beat them up, starve them and then leave them".
"If you do this, go into your pocket & give them peanuts when they are in that helpless and desperate situation, they will blindly follow you for the rest of their life, worshiping you".
"They will think you are a hero forever. They will forget that, you're responsible for their sorrowful situation in the first place."
Breath taking, isn't it ?
Now! Take a look at all the people somemost Nigerians are busy defending on social media.
Take a look at those they call their heroes. They are the people who plunged Nigeria into the situation she is. They are the same people who are responsible for their predicaments.
Did you see the numbers of people that throng to Saraki's house during this Christmas period to go collect peanuts? Your guess is as good as mine.
Nigerians kill those they should defend and defend those they should kill!

In dis kind of circumstance, it wud be a fatal mistake to shift blames, sling mud or even make hasty decisions. U sound like a decent person who loves & wants to keep her family. So all u need is a solution, a way forward for ur family.
So d way i see it, everything is now up to u. Ur approach towards supporting ur husband to seeking help will determine how cooperative be will be. Implore him patiently, like u wud do a small child. U also need to do a little research on home remedies u can adopt to see if d situation will improve. Just consider medicals as last resort. U need to love him more than ever before. If he knows dis, he'll do anything for u. U need to dis charge d thot of cheating cos nothing gud can ever come out of dat. And above all things, pray continously cos daz d master key.
Gud luck to u

Why do Naija mentality hav to be so damn obvious in evrything? R dere rules & regulations regarding dress codes for 'churching'? As far am concerned, d only rule regarding dressing up for church is one simple word - Modest.
Wen Nigerians dress up for church, it's usually an overkill. Eitha to exhibit their lavish wardrobes or to show' who is who'. No wonder some folks skip church services cos dey dont hav something 'befitting' to wear. No wonder also churches r such brisk bizness for pastors. Dis is d exact reason Christians really dunno d essence of christianity.
