NIN-SIM implementation is dead. Once Buhari and his acolytes leave in a year, it will stop. There is no continuity in policy in Nigeria.

So 8 years later, Fashola couldn’t fix the electricity problem he used to yap about. Nigerians love to hype nonsense and Fashola represents such nonsense.

You have a point about the vagueness of that term but I believe that was the interpretation of the person speaking not how the law was actually worded.

Wrong. Rape doesn’t have to involve force. When there’s a power dynamic and one person can’t say no because of their position in the situation, it’s also rape. Not just threat of injury but any kind of threat that makes the other person afraid of refusing.

Now this law supposedly can be applied both ways but why are the guys blowing hotter than others about it?
Is it because the concept of consent always seems to have y’all confused?
Like how you believe rape only involves force?

A lot of you need more education on this issue and emotional growth too. Not you specifically. Just you the collective.

Obviously you are confusing sexual harassment with rape. What they are doing is redefining rape. How does inappropriate touch (sexual harassment) become rape? These are issues addressed in big corporations when they give those mandatory Sexual Harassment classes. We know the difference among rape, attempted rape and sexual harassment.

I still don’t get how you are intertwining emotion with a purely legal and logical issue. Because the legal entity is redefining rape doesn’t make it a sound judgment. By the way everyone knows that I have minimal respect for the paper tigers masquerading as intellectuals in Nigeria.

Isn't it great how people talk about know-it-all parents forgetting that the fool you know today will someday become someone's parent?....and the recycle of mediocrity continues.

Kingship in Igbo land especially Imo State was bastardized to the point that it is meaningless. Questionable moneybags loyal to the State government were rewarded with igwe crowns through carving out autonomous communities. Some of the kings live outside the State or country. Then you have men parading themselves as igwe who cannot perform the cultural duties of a king and hide under Christianity to cover their incompetence.

Watch people who swear they will never understand the meaning of consent have a fit. Basically you can’t do anything sexually to anyone that they do not agree to. Regardless of your relationship with them. It’s not complicated. Don’t complicate it

/
That's very good. More spinsters in the market, more money for oga Shiloh.
Inappropriately touching a partner is very vague and can mean many things to different people. How do you prove inappropriate touch in court especially coming from a dejected, disgruntled or vindictive partner? Let's not be silly in trying to make laws.

A case of rape involving two or more adults has elements of force (which takes away wilful participation) or threat of injury.

Nothing to add.

Just that after reading stuff here for years, it affirms why black people are the poorest in the world. Not because they don't make money but because they have horrible spending habits. They don't understand money. Can't you people make money and keep it? Or looking for the flimsiest of excuses to spend it. And if it that doesn't work, go to parties to spray it just to impress God-knows-who. Then any little life challenge, you turn to a social beggar.

So OP go ahead and buy her a phone. A born loser doesn't know any different.

Mercychen:
Which money?
Most of them are taxi drivers, pizza delivery man and gutter cleaners. It's girls who don't have levels that want to die on top their neck.

Guys with cool bar na naija you go see them.

Lolz.

They are talking love and you are talking money.

Tomorrow you will cry that men treat women like objects. Your comment portrays one of the reasons it is so.

I believe Peter Obi is smart enough to know that this is one of typical APC promises. He shouldn't hold his breathe.
I expect Lai Mohammed to state soon that the government wants to assist Mr Obi but there is no bullion van big enough to haul the cash.

Wait a minute!

Do you really expect the direct beneficiary of a chaotic system to be against the system?

Politicians only complain and criticize when they are not invited to the dining table.

Good morning and merry Christmas everyone.

Please I'm in dilemma and really need some good advice.
This guy and I have been on this relationship thing for 5 months now with occasional misunderstandings here and there. The first one was because he visited me and refused to go after the time he said he would leave, when he finally left I got back home from work only for the security to call me that I have a visitor at the main gate and behold it was him.
I allowed him stay the night because he's a nice guy, really good in bed and also helps in the house to do stuff like wash the dishes and cooking.

Fast forward to December 15th we agreed he comes over and we spend the Christmas at my place then go to his place from 27th so we can enjoy the new year there. As we agreed, he came to my place on 17th of December and has not made any moves to leave or for us to go to his place. I am moved to create this thread because I got home from work yesterday and noticed more of his things have been arranged in the wardrobe with his shoes arranged by the front door..

Please how do I address this? I can't go on like this. He eats a lot. Snores also.
Is relationship not supposed to be the other way around why is he moving into my apartment like I'm going to marry him
We both stay in Abuja.

Mods please kindly move to Frontpage.

Do you want to dump him after using him?

He gave you his body.

Smart ones are building houses.

The dumb ones are buying cars.

HRSweetness:
Not a big deal that he didn't know, but a very big deal that he didn't care to know before hastily reaching unfounded conclusions.

/
My only disappointment is that he didn't order the BJ. God forbid they delivered some cocktail without unzipping his pants. All hell will break loose.

Nigeria will be better when the so-called prophets or pastors start serving mandatory one year jail sentence for each failed prophecy. Most of them will think well before opening their buccal cavity to inundate us with false prophecies.

/

/
Big deal that the OP didn't know. Do you blame him? Those are weird names for cocktails. I believe there are a million and one things right under your nose that some of you omniscient beings do not know.

Cut him a slack.

Lolz. When 1$ equals N1000 and salaries are not paid, you will pay one way or the other.

People should be preparing themselves for the worst case scenario. I see Venezuela happening to Nigeria soon. Nigeria needs to be bankrupted and they found a dullard who will sign anything presented to him in any language. I shudder at the inflationary pressure in 2022-23.

"Observing" how to pour concrete?

I don't understand.

/

/
When you get to a checkpoint and see men in military uniforms, you assume they are the Nigerian army.

It makes sense that when you get to a party and see a lady dressed like asewo, it will be fair to assume she is one and ask her how much.

Na as goat take stand dem dey take price am.

I will like to see the microbial culture results of the pool thereafter.

One day the same APC chairman in Imo State will be caught in the crossfire and he will start seeking sympathy . When Uche Nwosu was moving like a colossus during Okorocha's tenure, he never knew that a day of reckoning would come soon.

"My girlfriend called me from office to come and fetch bathing water for her. I had to do it for peace to reign."

"I don't want any rancor between my wife, and i, so i had to beg her for sex. I did it to allow peace to reign."

"I had to watch all the dishes in the kitchen to allow peace to reign. I dont want my wife to wake up, and be shouting."

The abovementioned phrases are nonsensical and insha allah! Wtf?
See bro, if your wife doesn't want peace herself, why don't you take the vawulence back to her? Abi iro palapala wo niyen?

Why can't she allow peace to reign by compromising on her stand? Why must it be you? Osheeey, peacesetter.

See, i already preinformed my wife that:
If she nag, i'm sending her back to her father's house.
If she cheat, to her father's house
If she discomfort my mom/siblings, to her father's house.

I'm doing you a favour getting married to you. So?

Peace ko, wee-wee ni!

/
Have you considered the characteristics of such men that make their wives have the audacity to order them around?

They are not just doing it for peace. They are Beta males. They can never change.

bestme:
Hello, nairalanders in the house, pls I need your sincere advice in this matter.

I have known this lady I really want to marry for over 2 years now. Though our friendship have been a casual one. The issue is she told me she is a graduate and then i visited her house over 2 years back I met her mom and she asked me where I came from- my tribe and if I am a graduate and told her my tribe and yes I am graduate.

She said she wants her daughter to marry a graduate because she has done her best to train her school. It was of recent we started a serious marriage relationship and I told my pastor and we both met with pastor already.

It Is now she told me that she did not graduate that she was unable to pay school fees, though she went up to 500level and did I.T but her parents only paid 100 and 200 level school fees. She said she has no result/certificate. I told her am honestly disappointed for hiding this from me ever since and she said it is because I have not really made my intentions know to her.

One of the reasons I like her was being a graduate and I have not dreamt of marrying a non graduate.

Pls your sincere advice.

/
You do realize that if the case is reversed, she would drop you in a heartbeat. Lies or no lies, she doesn't meet your requirements. Your life, your choice.
Why are you bending your rules? As you progress, more lies will gradually pop up. You are dealing with a manipulative family. I wish you luck.

I can't wait to resume work soon to blast my manager and in turn he will tender it to HR and Co.

25k shopping voucher for a company as the one i work in. Still couldn't believe it.

Meanwhile,a previous workplace lower than the current gave a ram and half bag of rice last Christmas.

i really want to read gists about Christmas bonuses in ur respective workplace. Was the money/gifts disbursed accordingly? or your boss played office politics and cornered a greater chunk of the money/gift?

Did u receive yours with enough grudge?

or u received with Christmas joy and gladness?

Season greetings Nairalanders!

/
When did it become mandatory to give Christmas bonus?

If your salary no do you, then resign.

Small small bonus some people started, una don turn am to culture.

The story of Rochas is one of the major reasons why self-acclaimed philanthropists couldn’t win in the last election in Anambra state. The people have finally realized their shenanigans. Philanthropy is only a means to an end to these folks. But the hungry ones will continue to worship them. You ain’t fooling nobody.
/

/
As a Governor, he left his State to go and build a shopping mall in Abuja. Yeah! That smacks of confidence in his State.

Shoprite and Roban are thriving in Anambra.

Politics, Politricks

So Okorocha, Nwozu, Hope and other Imo politicians colluded together to use Supreme Court to remove Ihedioha.

Even after coming 4th in the election, Hope used his street wise and Apc as a party to fool Okorocha till judgement was delivered in his favour.

Not even up to 1 month Gov Hope became governor, things fell apart biggerly as Hope is more loyal to Apc which to him made him the governor.

May God help them to settle their differences oo.

/
Don’t forget that Rochas ran Hope out of IMO State when he was the governor. Hope was declared a persona-non-grata in IMO state for years. Rochas also dethroned C.I. Ilomuanya as the Igwe of Obinugwu but has been reinstated by Hope. We know what Hope and Iyke Ilomuanya have in common. Think of Maurice Ibekwe and John Nebolisa. I guess it is a payback time as power is transient. Rochas played “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” in the Ihedioha vs Hope saga. But Hope could see through the whole charade. Game recognize game.

Bad news for Peter Obi.

I hope he has insurance coverage for the business.

Today ended as a bad day.

If you remember in my previous post on my resigning from my place of work and focus on my bike full time, I wrote to the school management informing them that I will not continue with them since they don't buy the idea of combining their work and my bike.

So some weeks ago, they asked that I leave their apartment on or before 21st December.

After some days, they called to ask if I had left, to which I told them I have not gotten a place yet.

So they extended to today being Friday, 24th.

This evening, the owner of the school (an elderly man) came to the apartment to throw my stuffs out that I must leave their school since they didn't sack me. That I choose to resign.

I explained to him that I have not been able to get a place.

When I now told him I needed him to pay me for December so I could add to my money and get a place.

Na there the man flare up, rushed inside the apartment and started throwing my shoes away and as if that wasn't enough he rushed out and went to the metal pole used to hold the car wheel used as bell and rushed towards me and hit my leg with it. I thought this man was joking, he targeted my head and missed.

Immediately I felt my colleague held the rod, I looked at my leg and saw blood gushing out.

I am contemplating reporting to the police with the injury.

But I still want seek counsel from you guys whether it's wise doing that.

Here is the picture of the rod and injury inflicted on me by the man.

I just regret not video recording it. That would have been a stronger proof.

/

People have plans before they reign but you resigned before you have plans.

How do you want to keep living in a facility after resigning from an organization? You are trespassing and the owner should have had you arrested. You are unnecessarily provocative. He was even kind enough not to have given you only 24hrs to vacate his premises.

zedegit:
Please don't get it wrong. I believe there should be 2 offerings: normal church offering and tithe.

Nowadays there are up to 5 offerings in church.

1 Sunday school offering
2 Testimony offering
3 Building levy offering
4 Youth offering
5 Offerings for needy
6 Tithe etc

There are strategies devised to coerse one to give
such as "stand up and raise your offering and being left on the seat while others give.

It makes me feel bad.

If you learn to be shameless, half of your problems are solved. Look at your politicians.

What's with all these Merry Christmas felicitations?

You guys should do Christmas giveaways for us.

I don't understand.

There is no correlation between December 25th and the birthday of Jesus Christ.

Just do the festival, enjoy yourself and leave Jesus Christ out of the delusion.
