hold on - so can we send GEJ to international court?

Then why havent we!! Ah how much does it cost?

I am assuming all the corrupt politicians can be sent to international court for crimes against humanity.

you dey mind that small pikin wey dey talk any how like he has got brain tumor.

If GEJ wants to end-up in an International Criminal Court prison cell in Hague (like Laurent "Gbagbo" of Ivory coast) , he will end up in the Prison and nothing will happen!


Lastpage!

can you stop posting empty threats like a typical Yoruba man that loves to rant without any serious intentions to back up his rants. Your basis for saying Jega is no public servant or operates a different rule of public service is the nonsense Feyi Falana said...... Scheeeew, Femi has since left activitism to do bi-partisan politics..... He should let us know when when he is talking from legal perspectives and actually quote the sections of the Constitution that confers on Jega a different rule of employment that separates him from his predecessors, Iwu and Goubadia who were sent on terminal leave too three months into the expiration of their tenure. There is a big difference between arguing on technicalities of the law and somebody hiding under the mask of being a SAN to spew bi-partisan rubbish and make it seem like a sacrosanct law. All Jega can do if he is sent on leave is go to court if he feels that it is illegal, the likes of Femi can now go there and argue against knowledgeable legal luminaries about the technicalities surrounding Jega's appointment as INEC chairman.

Need I remind you that there is precedence, in fact, when maurice iwu was sent on the same terminal leave by the President, the same GEJ, the likes of Buhari, NBA and many civil societies hailed the action, I have newspaper report of the time to show for this, it is now that that hypocrite that calls himself Femi Falana remembers that Jega is operating a different set of public service rules...... I dey laugh, na when GEJ do am first, I go see wetin you personally go do.

You need to learn something called self control. Me & any lady no matter how attractive she is, will both sleep on a bed forever & nothing will happen. If I don't have it for you, I can't give it to you

gay alert!!!!

Let me talk about the part of your best friend even though to me, as far as the guy code goes, your best friend is a side chic as much as you two don't want to admit it.
Now to the possibility of starting a relationship with her, trust me on this one, if she really is a best friend as you claim then she is the best shot you have got at a very satisfying relationship you will be happy and have a girlfriend or partner that genuinely loves you and is ready to do whatever for you. Trust me, if you and your woman quarrel over domestic issues like cleaning up the house or cooking, then there is an underlying disrespect for you and the fact she does not love you for you. She has marked up stuff she won't do for you even as small as take care of you. She's not worth the effort or contemplation.

I don't know about you but if you are from a background like mine where being homely is a quality we take seriously in the family then you will agree with me that as small as that is, it will become a very big issue when you two get very serious. Trust me when I tell you that she has guyz that she can cook for and they are the ones she feels are worth it, that's why I feel it her continued refusal might border on lack of respect for you.... "Like why will I cook for you, are you my father or do you pay my school fees and all". Fact is this, a woman cooking for me is not a big deal cos I can get my sister or cousins or even do it myself. Cooking for your man is a way of strengthening your bond and relationship..... I wish some women won't see it from the angle of pride.

Give your best friend a chance..... If she can go to the extent of trying to seduce you then she really wants you for real.

What nonsense!!! How can you be best friend to an opposite sex, unless one of you is gay, I won't let my girlfriend be best friend to another guy, I don't fvcking care if you guyz knew each other from heaven before I happened to you, it ain't happening..... Even to a guy that acts gay, I won't let my woman have anything to do with you that is serious unless it is a working relationship. The likes of Denrele and the beaching cream miracle wonder selling creep are no go areas...... Niggaz float both ways but like to hide their rubbish under entertainment.

Anyway, if she wants you to fvck her, boss by all means oblige her and knack the kpekus then choose either to go on with the relationship seriously or tell her it won't work and spoil the friendship..... How does your girlfriend cope with you and your so-called female girlfriend..... It is unlike the typical woman she go Don begin give una the suspicious look of "you two been fvcking behind my back and be acting all cozy and stuff".

One thing I always do is to know limit with how I go about asking a girl out.
I may yield to your request today and tell you know tomorrow depending on how I understand your understanding of my gestures.

There was this very pretty lady that came to visit my cousin's girlfriend, she just fit the description of my kind of woman: fair, has got a full hair no wigs or hair extensions, speaks very well and has good social skills. I observed her for a while from my adjoining room, after a while, my cousin's gf introduced us, I noticed she was very friendly and vocal not so typical of most pretty girls I know, she was really down to earth. Regardless, I played it cool but also chip in chatty gestures every little while.

Finally when she was about to leave, I made sure we all went down together; my coz, his gf, me and the pretty lady..... I asked for her number right there and got it. I do that many times to test the maturity of a woman, I would ask for your contact right in front of everyone and watch the way you react. Well, she was very mature about it and did not have any issues giving me her number.

Later on that day, I called her to know if she had gotten home, she thanked me and all. I decided to try my luck without being too pushy though. I told her to come hang out with me if she was not going to be busy the next day, she politely refused, she was like if my cousin's gf invites her again may be she might come..... I didn't push further so I let it and told her some other time I guess.

I later realized she was on whatsapp and sent her a few messages which I noticed took forever to be replied, so I stopped bothering myself. I am not the type to force myself to be liked..... If I noticed a check ain't digging me despite my efforts, I just forget and not embarrass myself.

After like a month, I changed my profile pic on whatsspp and noticed that I got a msg from..... I played along and responded like hey long time and all by this time she had gone back to school. We chatted for a while and then I stopped. I started rationing my responses to her. She became more responsive and all. Later on that day I decided to do some digging like, went to fb to do some real digging on her....... O Boi pictures I saw arouse my interests, click was finer than I had though o..... So I decided to restrategize. I called her the next day and was like sup been a while....... I noticed she was kind of happy.... And I casually threw it in to her like, why do you take so long to reply to messages, is it your phone or you just do that on purpose..... Explained bllabla..... And apologize, since then we have been cool but I still maintain my rationed response or chatting with her...... She is that type of girl you want to be careful with how you try to impress her, else you will end up wasting your time, as much as I may want her, I won't hesitate either to just move on if I notice she is not genuinely interested in me.

kpolli:
Oh my guess is that you're one of those guys who believe once they take care of someone, they own them.... Well if you feel the father has the right to tell her how and where to worship God then I won't even stress myself arguing with you.....

which kind nonsense you dey talk for mouth sef..... Have you even seen the picture of the kid. You mean you would let a child under your roof make decisions such as this on her own because you want to show that you are a 21st century dad or what..... Scheeew......

Growing up as a youngster, church was not my thing, my mum decided the church everyone attended, dad goes when he feels like.... As much as I did not like the hours of shouting and muttering gibberish in the name of prayers, I never contested my being there. The only thing I did was device a way to attend the church sessions close to when they were rounding up...... After a while, I just naturally started attending Christ Embassy and became very interested and committed, my parents who were very impressed at my level of seriousness knowing that I was really not into the church thing allowed me...... Shebi na me tire, come begin siddon house back.

What I am trying to say is this, don't go into a fight with any of your parents over the church you want to attend, besides your reasons are very flimsy and the name of your new church obviously gives me the story, firebrand....... At your age, parents know best.

Interesting Legal perspective from Aloy Ejimako:

Section 27(2)(h) of the Electoral Act, the result of the Presidential election is to be announced by the ‘Chief Electoral Commissioner’. Under Section 156, the Chairman is identified specifically as the Chief Electoral
Commissioner.

However, under Section 152, the Commission is
empowered to delegate any of its functions to any
of the National Commissioners. In my considered
view, the operative phrase – ‘any of its functions’,
includes conducting the presidential election and
the announcement of result thereof.

Therefore, other than Jega, any of the 12 national
commissioners can, under the discretionary
delegation of the Commission, act as the Chief
Electoral Commissioner, in the interim, for the
specific purpose of announcing the said result.
Second, Section 159(4) of the Constitution, which
is also pertinent, provides that “Subject to its rules
of procedure, any such body may act or take part
in any decision notwithstanding any vacancy in its
membership or the absence of any member”.

Without doubt, ‘such body’ as stated here includes
INEC, as enumerated under Section 153 of the
Constitution. ‘Any vacancy’ can mean anything
from terminal leave, removal or suspension from
office, death, etc. And ‘any decision’ includes
conducting elections (presidential, etc.) and
announcement of the results (the core functions of
the Commission). Third, Section 161(c) of the
Conshall be construed as including a reference to
the Chairman of that body”.

I believe that you can (interpretatively) expand this
provision to read that ‘a reference to the Chairman
shall be construed as a reference to a member who
happens to be the Chairman’, including a member
‘acting’ as Chairman, either as a result of a
foreseeable vacancy, delegation, or worse.
Further, keep in mind that the Attorney-General of
the Federation had, in a related legal opinion
(requested by Jega), stated that all the 12
Commissioners, including Jega, are constitutional
equals; and that Jega is thus not a CEO but merely
a primus inter pares (first among equals).

Fourth, Section 159(3) of the Constitution says that
“Whenever such body is assembled for a meeting,
the Chairman or other person presiding shall, in all
matters in which a decision is taken by vote (by
whatever name such vote may be called) have a
casting as well as a deliberative vote”.
In my view, the phrase ‘other person presiding’
bears a constitutional recognition that the Chairman
may not always be available … for whatever reason,
including terminal leave, expiration of tenure, or
even by an act of force majeur; and the
Commission’s ‘decision’ can be on any matter
within the purview of the Commission’s core
functions, including most notably, conducting
elections and announcing their results.

Finally, let me conclude by adding this caveat: the
Chairmanship of INEC should not be personalized
to the point of the apprehension that elections will
be adversely affected by any sudden vacancy in
that office. Let it be clear that, in addition to this
much feared terminal leave, vacancy can also
suddenly occur from physical/mental incapacity,
removal from office, resignation or even death.
Plus, we have till 29th April to hold these elections
– a time span that is more than sufficient to
appoint and confirm another substantive Chairman.

So, with all the forgoing considered, the material
questions to ask are these: what if we are here
dealing with another garden-variety vacancy, not
occasioned by ‘terminal leave’, but by any of the
other events aforementioned? In such other likely
scenarios, will it still make sense to postulate that
the validity or credibility of the ensuing elections
will thereby be adversely affected?

In the interest of full disclosure, let me say from the outset that this piece is nonpartisan. It is, instead,
an apolitical academic exercise, primarily intended
as a simple legal treatise, without being personal,
on the legalities of tenure of Prof Attahiru Jega as
INEC Chairman. Having said that, let me then give
reasons why Jega’s tenure legally or actually
comes to end on March 24, 2015, instead of the
presumptive June 24, 2015.

Jega was appointed by President Jonathan on June
8, 2010, and confirmed by the Senate on June 24,
2010. Under the law, his tenure runs for five years.
Mathematically, therefore his tenure ‘exactly’ ends
on June 24, 2015, counting from the date of Senate
confirmation.

But according to extant rules and our time-
honored conventions, his tenure ‘actually’ comes to
an end on March 24 because he is required,
without more, to compulsorily proceed on terminal
leave three months to the mathematical end of his
tenure. And this is being very generous because, if
you go by the ‘doctrine of relation back’, a strong
case can be made that his terminal leave shall
commence on March 8 (the date he was appointed), instead of March 24 (the date he was confirmed).

For those who might argue otherwise, there are
legions of precedents, including, most notably, that
of Jega’s predecessor, Prof Maurice Iwu. Iwu’s
tenure was due to expire on June 13, 2010.
However, on April 28, 2010, then acting President
Jonathan, ordered Iwu to proceed on terminal
leave. That Iwu’s own terminal leave was less than
three months to his mathematical five years was
probably a matter of expediency of that turbulent
era and presidential grace, to boot.

In recent times, we have seen other equally
constitutionally-tenured public servants proceed on
terminal leave before the exact date of expiration
of their tenure. Here are few examples. Former IGP
Abubakar’s tenure was due to end on July 30, 2014
but he proceeded or was sent on terminal leave on
May 12, 2014. Former Chief Justice of the
Federation, Justice Dahiru Musdapher voluntarily
proceeded on terminal leave three months before
the constitutional or mathematical end of his
tenure. Ditto for former PCA, Justice Salami, even
though his own was somewhat exceptional because
he was on suspension when his terminal leave
clock began to tick. I might add that Salami fought
his for its exceptional equities but still lost. Jega
has no such equities.

To underscore that there are no exceptions, the
Federal Government, in a well-received circular
issued by the former Head of Service, Alhaji Isa
Bello Sali, had “called on those affected to comply
with immediate effect by observing the three
months terminal leave as provided for in the extant
Rules”. Unarguably, those affected included,
without exceptions, all public servants that have
constitutional or legal tenure, either based on fixed
tenure-track, as in the case of Iwu, Jega, etc; or
straight retirement based on 35 years service (the
IGP) or age (Justice Musdapher).

According to the circular, which is captioned ‘Three
Months Pre-Retirement/Terminal Leave’, the
government stated that “It has been observed that
the mandatory notice of retirement for officers who
are due to retire is not being observed as provided
for in the extant rules. Accordingly, it has become
necessary to reiterate the provisions of Public
Service Rules (PSR) 100238 which states that
officers are required to give three months notice of
their retirement from service terminating on the
effective date of their retirement”. For avoidance of
doubt, the term retirement, in context, applies,
mutatis mutandis, to those on fixed tenure like
Jega.

The circular was addressed and sent to the Chief
of Staff to the President, Chief Justice of the
Federation, all Ministers, Secretary to the
Government of the Federation, Service Chiefs, the
Inspector-General of Police, Chairman Federal Civil
Service Commission, the Chairman, Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), and the
Chairman of Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC). Others are Heads of extra-
ministerial departments, the Accountant-General of
the Federation, Auditor-General of the Federation,
Surveyor-General of the Federation, Directors-
General/chief executives of parastatals and
agencies.

So, as we can see from above, it is left for Jega to
decide between these two options: It is either he
voluntarily proceeds on his terminal leave by March
24, 2015, or he may be forced to do so by
executive fiat. If, however, he is emboldened to sit
tight, he has to know that any extra day he spends
in office beyond March 24 is not by any force of
law but by the sheer good graces of President
Jonathan.

This is an interesting legal explanation right here. There is nothing opposition can do about this.. The PDP has its legal discretion all on this one.

akinsadeez:
You don't know anything. It is a crime in Nigeria. This is something that we charge people for everyday and yes, they do get convicted. I gave you the section of the child's right act where it is and you are still talking about America. If the parents of d girl are keen on pursuing the case the guy will be charged and most likely convicted.

Boy shut up..... Again I ask you, convicted for what exactly, consensual sex between a minor and an adult in Nigeria.... Do you have cases that you can reference or you just want to run your mouth and talk quixotic gibberish that only applies in your head. By the way, do you even know the consent age in Nigeria, you are yet to understand Nigeria's family laws and you dey para like say you sabi anything.. Have you been to the North to see girls of that aged and even less not just being betrothed to adults but married to them. You siddon for one corner in Lagos dey shout court case... Lol..... Case they will never win...

KoloOyinbo:
Certainly equal in rights. But each behave in certain ways. A gentleman gives a seat to a lady on a bus and holds door open for her etc.

This is in recognition of her femininity and does not detract from her equality.

To strike a woman like some coward or a gay (scratch her eyes out, pull each others hair and have a cat fight ) does not diminish anyone's equality but destroys that half-mans masculinity!

If my Father (God rest his soul) ever thought that I had struck a woman he would turn in his grave and wonder what kind of sick creature he had sired!

You must think because you call yourself oyinbo you must be some special human being that's perfect or something...... Go and tell your hogwash to unexposed people..... The issue of battery in any relationship cuts across cultures, race, tradition and even individual. You being Irish does not make you any more or less a "batterer"..... Unless you are trying to claim that in Ireland there has never been a case of battery reported before in its history...... That will be interesting to hear.

Again I repeat, nobody, man or woman has the right to violently hit anyone and expect not to get a response. I get it if some of the feminists and youngsters shout blue murder over the fact that I will beat a woman blue-black that first hit me, most of them are just starting out in life, the other ones are angry women. I don't believe in herd mentality. Pray you don't get into an abusive relationship, it is not as easy as working away or stopping her, there is no prescribed gentle man way of reacting to violence

akinsadeez:
Hmmmm. Something you are not averting your mind to is that what your friend is doing is actually a crime. If d family of d girl gets to know and decide to pursue d prosecution of d case ur friend will be imprisoned for life. The offence of sleeping with a minor under section 31 of the child's right act does not consider d consent of d child. in other words even if d child enjoys it and consents like this case, it is still a crime because a child is deemed to be unable to give consent under d law. It is a strict liability offence.

If d whole thing blows up, your friend can lie that you were in on it in which case you can also be arrested and charged with conspiracy or aiding and abetting d crime.
Best option, speak out before its too late. having sexual intercourse with a minor is a very big offence. Sit your friend down and tell him he is playing with life imprisonment. Alternatively tell him to download Nigeria's child's right act and read for himself. good luck.

crime in which country exactly, abi you think say na America we dey...... You have been listening too much to tyga and kyle shut lately.
In this condition, I can only do two things, either tell her brother or mind my damn business, matter of fact, mind your business.

People need to get real and stop arguing as if they were some robot with no feelings...... Some women are violent and only calm down when they get an equal or more violence in return. Only a disrespectful woman will get angry to the point of slapping or hitting a man. I have seen a woman slap a man and even spat on him during an argument.

It is so easy for men who have never been recipients of violence from such women to come out here and preach about not hitting a woman no matter what, that's a lie. 90% of male folks will respond equally at least to a woman that slaps or hit them out of provocation, we are all feeling human beings, it is only Natural to act in this same manner.

The preaching should be that nobody, be you man or woman should slap or hit anyone in provocation, no matter how bad it is...... Just as a man is expected to work away in a charged atmosphere, so should a woman do too. Any argument that seeks to suggest that even if a woman hits a man it is wrong for the man to respond back is hypocritical and playing to the gallery.....

i have never had to hit any woman that did not hit me even in the face of provocative comments, but I have had to respond in equal measure to a lady that pointed her fingers at me, pulled my trousers and asked me to do my worst, I shoved her and got a resounding slap that got me seeing stars that say get that bitch, the result was an equally reassuring thunderous slaps that reminded her that I could actually inflict even more violence on her than she can on me..... Everyone that witnessed the whole thing go down supported me because I had been tolerant enough to the point of empowering the foolish girl. Again, if a woman attacks me and expects me to just cowl in fear of not being seen as a woman beater then she is in for a big disappointment cos I won't hesitate to respond to her gesture. Na so.

Any woman that first raises her hands to hit me or inflict pain on me is automatically assumed to be physically capable to defend the reaction that will come from me. I won't play to the gallery and let a woman hit me and get away with it, just as I won't let my fellow man do such to me..... I will beat the living daylight out of her.

no repercussions just a settled mind.....I don't go to church.

missjenna:
Sorry if I sounded rude. I know guys hate to see any woman that threatens their supremacy.

Once again, accept my apologies

while I like your strong words but I must maintain that every woman has her price, all a man needs to figure out is how much..... I am yet to see a woman who dies not consider note as a prerequisite for a relationship, she may not be all about it but she considers it though..... I mean, can you date a broke guy for love?

Fact is that Dbanj needs an experienced manager and a business mentor..... He should forget about music and concentrate on bringing others up, concentrate on the business side of music like his former partner Don Jazzy is doing. He has burnt a lot of bridges and needs to stop putting up appearances and just own up, he does not need a Don Jazzy to help him do all these. Besides, the likes of Dr Sid wouldn't want that to happen, and their reasons are very justified, nobody wants an overbearing character that does not know when to step back and let others shine too..... It can not always be about you. Dr Sid was right to have said his career was being overshadowed by Dbanj's, just because Dbanj brought him in, no come mean say, him no go come let them shine too, they can't continue to be his side kicks...... Look at the arrangement in the new Mavin, everyone is getting a fair share of the right effort, publicity, exposure and attention needed, they are not there to bask in the successes of Tiwa, Dr Sid or even da prince...... Good a thing the likes of Dr Sid prevailed on Jazzy to let go off Dbanj, he would have drowned everyone in his unbridled American excitement and experiment.

This guy Etcetera is an annoying busybody that likes to hate on his colleagues and everyone else in general. He writes like he is some perfect being even though he is far from being perfect.

He is always writing about his colleagues imperfections and ranting like he is any better. How can an artist who depends largely on people's support for his work to make it in the business that he is in, criticize those who show open support for any politician? Does not make any sense to me.

The essence of politicians using the help and popularity of his colleagues is not only to swing support but also to make the youngsters who are their fans politically conscious and awakened to their civic responsibilities, it is not enough to put albums and scream "I love my fans" and then get them into music frenzy and stop there...... It goes beyond that. Star power is a mission to serve even if you get paid while doing so..... During Obama's first election virtually all of Hollywood was in support of his candidacy. It was like a movement, a conscious movement that aroused the interests of young Americans who would normally not vote or just show apathy, such is the essence of star power.

All that talk of political prostitution sounds like a player hating effort to discredit his colleagues who are being courted to use their star power for these reasons, it does not matter who amongst the candidates they decide to pitch tent with, the point is that they are also creating a consciousness, an opportunity to get more vane youngsters talk about the leadership of the country or even get interested in running for a position.

If eventually Etcetera decides one day to run for a position will he call those who support him political prostitutes, will he in the same self-righteousness query his colleagues or supporters who rally around him and support him, it is so easy to sit and criticize others especially when you are being ignored and you continue to show protest through write ups that make you look like a rebel. At the end, everyone has their ambitions and future plans, some one to go into politics some day and are using the opportunity to learn the ropes and familiarize with the people already in the polity.

In the end, Etcetera needs to shut up and mi d his own business, he is always sounding angry and indirectly charging at his colleagues as he sermonizes to his audience, the point is that this is entertainment, it is all drama, glitz, broken marriages, fake lives, fake friends, friendship of benefits and all the stuff any normal person will point as a vice or moral limitations but that is what makes it entertainment industry, it is not perfect anywhere, not designed to be perfect, so shut up and keep your opinions to yourself. Imagine, if everyone was to give an opinion about you every time you make any move..... Geeez !!!!!!!

hahahahaha...St Nicholas don enter one chance, I can assure you that no family member will show up until that guy is discharged. Even the guy sef use him head begin talk as him dey sleep under bridge and having no particular family member that he can call...lol...the bobo wise, I am sure that even in his unconsciousness, he must have calculated the high value treatment and care that was being given to him and just decided that there was no how he was going to let any family member bear the burden of the bills hence his amnesia and incoherent name dropping...lol

Fact is I would have done the same if I were in the governor's shoes. The point of going to the media, especially the likes of Sahara reporters for that matter, that is known for journalistic embellishment and bi-partisan politics only serves to show that the so-called youths are being prodded by probably an opposition agent. There are way more effective and better avenues to channel their disappointment than going to talk to Sahara reporters, unless of course they want to play politics as the Delta state government had noticed.

My first time using any of them, I am not sure on who is better at delivering on promises but I must confess that the price difference was just too damn much for it not to be a deciding factor. What is your experience with any of them?

bigtt76:
Very difficult to say though but always choosing where the best offer lies may not always be the best and vice versa

Actually, I opened this thread to get the input of people that have used either of these two online stores to buy items from major American online stores and ship them to Nigeria. I want to relate my experience and observations from using the two of them to make purchases and comparing their invoices and charges. Anyway, I ended up using MallforAfrica whose charges were way better in comparison to MicostarMall that was going to cost me an additional N6000 to buy and ship the same quantity of items MallforAfrica had charged me less for.

Anyway, enough of the gist, let me illustrate with pictures of their invoices. Notice the quantity of the same items are the same but with slightly differing cost(Probably because of the fluctuating Dollar to Naira rate) and while I was busy trying to figure out which one to use the cost of one of the products was increased by Amazon by an additional $2 which reflected in the invoice of MallforAfrica but not on that of MicostarMall.
Below are invoices from MicostarMall and MallforAfrica comparing side by side, the second pair of pictures show the products and their charges in dollars and Naira equivalence.

Well, like I said before, I opted for the cheaper one of course. However, I will like to see people post their experiences with these online stores, who delivers better on promises and whose services are better. Please your contributions are highly needed and welcomed, especially those that have used them before. Moderators please put this in the front page if you can.

As far as womanizing is concerned, Dbanj no follow. Abeg point out the women associated with Dbanj...dont even call Genny cos that never happened, it was all a stunt to promote his album, they never dated.

You seem to think I am one of those that form their opinions based on some ridiculous dictates of people who I don't know and do not remotely look like me. sorry to disappoint you....I don't care about White Jesus or Yellow Mohammed....if you can justify Femi's irresponsible acts then you should extend the same gesture to the woman period.

freedomlast:
What is wrong with a man sleeping with multiple women? Because the Bible told you so? Or because oyinbo man told you so?

For your information, multiple wives and concubines were a staple of the Lord's beloved...Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Solomon. Even in the new testament, the only condition being that such a man couldn't be elected to a position in the church.

God always spoke to these "multiple-women loving" men directly, so he could have told them, "eh, eyin boys, leave those women and focus on just one". Did He do that? No He didn't,, not in any accounts of the bible that I have read, so which one is your own in this matter?

Are you better than God?

Even your fore fathers had multiple wives, so please let us hear word. If YOU want to have one wife, it's your choice, but don't label someone a bad person because he decided to follow in the footsteps of great men of old.

If I was in his shoes, I would definitely have sent those kids packing too. So he should be a Mugu right? If the woman had told him about the children's paternity, he would have had the choice to either keep them or not keep them. But in this case, he found out by himself. No way. Ko possible.

Do you have any idea what the sheer financial and emotional requirement is for the care and education of a single child in this day and age?

DNA testing should be made mandatory.

All you Gammas screaming about the children's feelings, what about the man's own feelings? Publicly humiliated as a cuckold?

You don't get the point. Perhaps you are establishing your facts based on the single story of Femi, the one that obviously has the voice, this is just his own version. You are yet to hear the woman's own version of the same story. It is possibly they both were cheating with other people while they were married or whatever and she took in and assumed it was possibly from the equally cheating husband's seed. What if she is not in the know that these kids were actually not Femi's....what you call facts are your own manufactured conclusions based on one story. Even in the face of fact, you don't punish the children involved for the iresponsibilities that the man probably has a hand in. If you were caught up as kid in the middle of something like this, I bet you wont be kissing Femi good by after dropping you off and cutting ties with you all because he just discovered you are not from his loins.

logica:
Perhaps? I deal with facts in my life; not probabilities. It is obviously impossible for a man to trick his wife that she was the mother of a child she didn't bare; except of course she suffers from memory loss. So what "perhaps" are you speaking of?

Perhaps he would have done so if he could

logica:
At least the men didn't bring those kids into the matrimonial home and trick their wives to believe they gave birth to them; but must have developed amnesia or something.

By by virtue of the ed!ot being a man, he is absolved of any wrong doing or at least, he is covered under the umbrella of being an African Buffon and it is our traditiona.....But a woman that tries the same is not worthy of any consideration similar to the same benefits the African Buffon is getting from hypocrits here, she is not even worthy of existence even if the man she did it to is equally not befitting of any moral standing.....

fireforfire:
Everybody is blaming women now.
Worof all d children from numerous concubines dat som men hv dat dia real wives dnt knoe until d death of d man
Infidelity ehnnnnn....

I hope you pictured your mother while cluelessly typing away on your keyboard and writing this nonsense. What a stoopid chauvinistic genetic garbage.

9jatatafo:
Someone said and I quote "A woman is like a horse, any man can ride on her". Loving a woman is good but don't over love. Most married women bleep more than single girls because no one will ever suspect them. I truly feel for Femi and the two kids that not his. He should be grateful that three (3) boys are his. Woman caused our first father to fall from grace so why should we be surprised with what her daughters are doing?
