It is not your fault but you must bear the pain.

The problem is that your father was not her first choice. That's why she resents him. She keeps thinking of what could have been. But now you are caught in the crossfire.

Some years back on here, armed robbers were posing as clients on here and tricking builders to the East to rob them.

No one said anything till much much later.

Many things sure did happen on this thread from unscrupulous suppliers to quacks posing as professionals. What pissed me off was how many victims kept quiet until one person called him out. Like a molestation case, victims started surfacing with painful stories. I am trying to remember the moniker that was into roofing and supplying woods. Some of them are still here with different monikers.

Cave ne sedes.

You might want to try something different from the contemporary POP ceiling pattern. PVC’s ceilings can never go out of market due to the versatility of designs it adapts to.
Recently, there’s been improvements, importations of structures have been employed and PVC’s are now produced with thickness up to 15mm.
Check the picture below for some awesome designs that Pvc’s can be adapted to

/
They look really nice. I guess one needs expert installers to get such nice designs. How is the price compared to P.O.P?

My range level must have been done by blind artisans

Chief a beg I no wan laugh.

One stingy chief got the best tiling job discount from a one-eyed man. You should have seen the tile job. A blind man would have done better.

A range, when used in building construction terms is a piece of iron bar or hollow square pipe used to flatten an area of plastering work, like a space of wall to maintain a uniform level of plastering or screeding.

When they mention range plastering, it means the type of plastering that a hollow square pipe is used to finish the level. This is usually a better quality plastering since all the surface will maintain a uniform level. There are however plastering works which are done without this ranging tools, the workers just plaster and use what we in the field call "eye gauge" to determine if the surface is level.

Workers may demand more money for range plastering as against other types of plastering works.

Thanks.

One question for our CHEMISTS (Prof, PhD, Masters and bachelor degree)

Why can't you guys locally synthesize O₂ oxygen to be used medically in our hospitals especially in this dangerous times of pandemic?

What is stopping u guys?

Ndi wailers your food is ready now come and chop
see how nyamiris are rushing to this thread to wail as usual cuz it is in their dna and it can never be separated from those fools

/
They were called wailers. Luckily for them, wailers and non-wailers are bearing the brunt of Buhari's maladministration in equal proportion. Katsina people couldn't be saved by their son and they turned wailers too after doing exactly what you think you are doing.

So it shall be with Tinubu.

That’s the sad thing about LOVE. You may love someone wholeheartedly. But do they love you equally or are they just playing along for the benefits? You can only answer this for yourself. It is funny hearing someone talk about how the partner loves him/her. As long as you don’t have access to the internal working of his soul, there is no guarantee. That’s why one day they are in love, the next day they are disgracing themselves in public.

I don't know what it will take for the AIGs, CPs and IG to realize that their subordinates have no regards for their orders. They keep flouting their orders and go unpunished.

CrescentMoon:
Let me first tell you my kind of character. For you to make me angry, you have to repeat an offense more than 30 to 40 times. After each offence, I would only give you facial expression that will let you know that you offended me. And I would ensure you get the message.

So wife kept repeating same offence. I told her I don't like what she was doing. She said she would adjust, but kept repeating the same thing. When I got fed up, I tried to retaliate. My only retaliation is that I stopped being around in the house. I would leave the house very early in the morning and return late at night. I would go for business in another town and return 4 days later. She knows nothing stops me from coming home everyday from the other town because I have means of transportation. She flared up. Started calling relatives that I'm maltreating her. They asked her to say which ways I have been maltreating her...she said I'm avoiding our home. Relatives asked if I'm beating or starving her. She said no.

I know why it pained her very well. If she wants to go and urinate outside, I would go and drop her there. When she is through, she would call me and I would go and pick her up again.

She's a woman that's always settling fights for couples in the street. So, she never wanted it to be heard anywhere that we are quarelling in our home. She won't want anybody to come to our house to settle disputes. So this prolongs our fights always.

When she couldn't bear it again, she sent a message to me that goes like this: I INITIALLY DIDN'T WANT TO DIVORCE YOU BECAUSE OF YOUR DISABILITY AS I PITY YOU. BUT NOW, IT'S OVER. YOU HAVE TO BEAR THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR ACTIONS TOWARDS ME ALL THESE YEARS. WHAT DID I HAVE TO DO WITH A JUJU DIABOLIC MAN IN THE FIRST INSTANCE.

Let me disect those words in capital letters for you. I have a disability, but you can't notice it easily until you start talking to me. She said I have to bear the consequences of my actions towards her... looking back, I have done unimaginable things to make her happy. I even saved her life when she didn't want blood transfusion from unknown persons as a result of her Christian belief not to contract demons from the blood of unknown person. Fortunately, my blood group is that of a universal donor. That means I can donate blood for anybody. Note that she had never done any noteworthy thing for me apart from giving birth to our babies. About being a juju man, I will tell you how she arrived at this: somebody was about to give birth from her family side and the baby was in breech position. She asked for advice and I told her that if I take the woman to the village my uncle will give the woman a concoction to reverse it. Her faith is against it, but because someone from her side just gave birth through CS, which almost led to the death of mother and baby, she asked me to take the woman to the village. The breech position was reversed. I'm surprised she now labelled me a juju man.

Instead of me to take her message personal, I urged her to please herself. This infuriated her the more. Instead of leaving me, she invited someone to intervene, tracked me to the second town, and it was settled there.

My problem now is that those words are still ringing in my head... someone I thought was a lover said she married me out of piety.

/
There is nothing damaging in what she told you compared to what other husbands have been told. At least she didn’t say the kids are not yours.

Deal with it.

Useless and clueless dingbats.

I like his honesty. It is a complex and complicated process to produce COVID-19 vaccine. A typical educated Nigerian brain is shallow. Certificates are viewed as traditional titles. Professors in Nigerian universities are as clueless as the half-baked graduates they churn out. Nothing more to add. We are obligate consumers only. That’s why we find religion very appealing because it numbs thinking faculty. Everything good is from God; everything bad is from satan. Simple logic! So we can concentrate on making merry while absolving ourselves of any responsibilities.

First, the recent embarrassing events at US Capitol is a proof that certain political events in Africa don't happen because Africans have inferior brain but because most African leaders usually corner their countries' security system and compromise the leaders of judiciary and legislature.

The truth is if Trump had the FBI and military on his side, the story would have been different today.

Second, if #EndSars protesters had invaded the National Assembly and vandalized it, the US officials would have insisted that the protesters must not be pushed back with force but through negotiations. And when force is applied with fatality like it happened in Capitol, sanctions will be threatened and ICJ and Amnesty International would be releasing indicting statements.

The irony in all of these is that racist Trump ended up showing that Caucasians are not superior race but they excelled simply because of some sane patriotic leaders.

/
You contradicted yourself. No society is perfect. The difference between the US and your typical African nation remains that the Judiciary and Legislators stood against the potential tyranny of Mr. Trump while in your black nation, the legislators, Judiciary and the executive branch of government would have aided Trump to not only stay in power but be a life President. Only challenges can show the true foundation of a system. African nations are still shitholes when it comes to power.

Regardless of all the shenanigans, he's an ex US president and by far the richest ever. There are also millions of Americans who idolize him, so he'll be fine in the end. He is entitled to every benefit all ex-US presidents are entitled to by law upon handover.

Of course as a Nigerian who probably lives on less than equivalent of $1/day, the only metric you use to assess him is his money. Poverty is a disease. Wealth erases sense of humanity?

Adeboye will chop belle full come dey deceive others to fast. Does Leke look like someone who don ever fast in his life? If they like make them fast for 1 year, no manufacturing and infrastructures, Nigeria go still be a 5th World country.

At his age, Adeboye should be tired of all these shenanigans but then, a leopard never changes its spots. He will give RCCG stickers to the idiotas following him for protection but will carry MOPOL for his own protection. Do as I say but not as I do.

No thought out policies.

One knucklehead goes to bed, his sidechick gives him ideas and he shoots for immediate implementation of such wacky ideas. As usual, fear fear Nigerians line up to obey even the most ridiculous of policies.

Then a week down the line, his sense of reasoning is challenged after all the orgasmic feelings have left his brain and he reverts to status quo ante.

Mad people everywhere!

Police have suddenly become endangered species in this country and I am not complaining

Nothing to demystify.

They are inattentive in their duty posts. Carrying a gun is not enough to scare hoodlums/criminals (who themselves may be police or ex-police officers)

Yes, She won't have time for me. She doesn't have time for herself either . But trust me she always takes out her precious nap and food time, just to talk to me .

I visit her workplace she wouldn't have time to say hi also I have to sleep three nights in different hotels to be able to see her. I got angry one day and ask her, how will she take care of my kids when we marry.

When she is with me, I never want that moment to end. Our romantic life has had to suffer a lot of time because of duty calls. I have to get myself busier so I don't get emotional. she is honest and blunt, doesn’t beat around the bush. Sometimes I have to win her with a strong argument and points.

She is independent and can make life-death decisions, so I don’t feel bad if she doesn’t consult me and make some decisions highhandedly. I trust her, she good decision-maker the majority of times. For us, It’s accountability and responsibility that counts. I won't settle for less and she won't either. No room for excuses or self-pity.

She has to be nice to her patients and fellow male colleagues. I don’t mistake this for flirting. Her male colleagues are there with her than I am, so I am more comfortable and carefree because I trusted her. we do know our boundaries. Most of the time she will be discussing how much she misses me with them. I have the self-confidence that helps me though sometimes I get a bit jealous.

She is Superwoman without the cap all the time. So I have to decide whether to expect even more from her or be Super Man myself and share her burden a bit more.. understand her a bit more..love her a bit more.

As a doctor, she is extremely sensitive but also blunt. She knows when I need a hug and when an earful. Most of the time, she sees me as a case, desperately trying to diagnose my actions, detect my mood, I have to explain every action, etc.

She is great, very polite, courteous, intelligent, and fun and I love her effortlessly. The hard part is living with the job, the workload, the schedule, she never off duty, even when she is off duty, no time for long conversations. I already know I am committed to her and I must be committed to her job too. I need to be supportive of her, emotionally mature and have a life of my own. It has been a long ride but our relationship is thrilling. Will I choose another if given an opportunity? Only if I stop been me.

Learn from me, if you can't compromise in some area never date a high valued woman. With slay mamas wannabe, You have no issue, all you need is your time and money and you are the boss.

One comes in peace while the other comes with factory-fitted wahala. I know you can figure out which is which.

sweetmelanin:
Every now and again, I hear new stories about some men getting "betrayed" by a Nigerian spouse whom they've brought abroad.. however, I can't help but notice that they are often the cause of their own misfortune. As harsh as it sounds, some men have had to learn the hard way that ignorance and hero-complex will cost a man far more than he can ever bargain for..

Category 1: Those with a warped mindset of the " 'cultureless' akata"

My experience:
Let's go back to my uni days some years back.. the dating scene was wild, brutal and exciting.. back then, the disparity was huge between the "freshiees" and UK grown blacks (unlike today) .. but yet, I was opportuned to mix and mingle with so many young Nigerian guys who were in the UK as international students at the time.. some also young working professionals ( of which are still life-long friends of mine up till today)...

..whilst on the dating scene, I noticed that a lot of Nigerian guys seemed to have a mentality that "akata" girls were "too exposed" compared to Nigerian girls back home, so they played games with them, often ditching these girls to marry home-based chicks.. I remember having such a silly and childish dream of relocating to Nigeria back then . Hahha.. and thought I would end up with a "freshiie" who would 'take me back to the motherland'.. haha. though I ended up with someone with a migration story just like mine; we both moved to the UK as kids in the early 2000s.. and my husband is a male 'akata' to core ..with no intention whatsoever of moving back.

Truth be told, a lot of guys who had temporary flings with "akata" girls ended up moving back to Nigeria, and are still regretting their decision till today.. Many returned to find their girlfriends had moved on and married older men. Others attempted to bring their girlfriends here to find out they've been used as a mere stepping stone to "greener pastures".


Category 2: Those who used and dumped white women for papers and then brought their "ungrateful Nigerian wives" abroad.

Men who are desperate for papers often opt for the easy way out: marrying an older white woman (and in some cases a poor unsuspecting black woman from another African country who has papers) ... they do this with the mindset that they would bring their "real wife" from Nigeria.
Now when their 'wife' divorces them.. these men will scream betrayal, forgetting the trail of heartbreaks they've left behind.. Now how do such men think they will use a foreign woman, break her heart, and yet live happily ever after with an imported bride?? how??

In summary,

When I hear stories of bitter divorces and men killing their spouse whom they brought from Nigeria I can't help but think this could've been avoided if they focused on settling with a so called "akata". Yes, she may not feign fake 'submission' like home-based Nigerian chicks, but what makes her less likely to 'betray' or mess you up is the absence of entitlement mentality.
...someone coming directly from Nigeria typically has a dog eat dog mentality caused by an oppressive system of lack. Whereas an abroad based chick already learns not to depend on a man from as early as 16 - 17 years of age.. most already have part time jobs as students and know the value of working for their money.. they won't take crap but at least what you see is what you get.. abroad based girls (akatas) are not angels but are far better than the pretenders back home y'all believe are "wife materials".. but people generally hold on to an illusion over what is real.

I have never blamed and will never blame the ladies who abandon their husbands. I blame the mo.ron who thinks his case will be different or "not my portion". They deserve to lose it all for their stvpidity. They refuse to learn from the mistake of others.

Na person river see im leg e dey swallow. As we discuss, one loser is somewhere filing paperworks to bring her over. The best you can do for such a friend is pay him a condolence visit before the Nigerian import arrives.

BabaIbo:
I am a young man in my thirties and she should be in the same range(I didn't ask her about her age because I don't really lay emphasis on age). We are from neighbouring towns.

As my heading reads, recently I met a lady online and we have been communicating well and I noticed she ticked most of the boxes of what I want in a woman.

Prior to now, I told myself I will stay away from anything woman because I just started a business last year and I want it to grow and balance before thinking of any thing women or marriage.

Recently, I noticed I am developing strong feelings for her, strong enough to lead to the alter.

Now the problem is, she is a single mother of two, we don't stay in the same city and the father of those kids seems to live in a neighbouring city to where she lives(although to a good extent the father of those kids is not a problem).

My question is what will you advice me to do in this situation?
*Go on and start a relationship with her.
*Keep her as a friend, although she may get hooked by another man along the line.

Anybody here who have been in similar situation, should help share their experiences too.

Note: She has never been married.
She is working and comfortable, money a problem is not a problem, i.e no unnecessary billing associated with some relationships.

The fathers of her two kids believed they were in love.
