airmark: Good video concept but badly executed.

remecy: Marriage is school for two person where you never graduate from. Admission into the great institue should not include any of the list below PLEASE.

1. Good food. – Sorry, you don’t need a wife to eat good food. House-help or fast food can help.
In other words, marry her if you love her. Kpata kpata una go dey chop outside. The way to a man's heart is through the stomarch. No wonder housegirls are beating madams to their ogas' joysticks.

2. sex – This is part of reason for marriage but should not be the only reason.
It is one of the major reasons. If you never bang someone wey lay like or log of wood or never feel like you are throwing a hotdog into a swimming pool, you will never understand

3. Solution partner – It is true that you need someone you can pour your heart to at all time. But you need to know that the other person also needs your care. If all you want is only yourself to be heard without considering the other person, then what you need is a counsellor, not a husband or wife.

Solution partner as long as your wife shares your interest. A man and a wife should complement each other.



4. Beauty – Never marry because someone is beautiful or handsome! Beauty fades. Simplicity is the key, however you must be attracted to the person.
OK. Remember most people are attracted to beauty first. Someone who is not easy on the eyes is already rigged out unless some miracle happens. I have seen ugly women with bad character as well.

5. Money – You may have financial need but marrying someone just because he/she is rich won’t sustain the marriage
Welcome to 2013 and beyond. No money, no love. Shikena! Money does not buy happiness, neither does poverty. So, I will choose the lesser of the two devils: Give me money! Rich people divorce, poor people divorce. Apparently, there is no correct formula where you plug in the variables to get a perfect marriage.

6. Pressure -
“I am getting old”, “My friends are all married”, “My family are complaining” – These and many more are the excuses some people marry!. But remember that you are the one that will live with that spouse and not your parents or friends.

I don't see anything good in having a 2-yrs old baby when you are 60. So time is an important factor. Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

7. Spirituality – “He speaks in tongues”, “He attend church regularly!”, we know them by their fruits and not by their being religious.
I guess it will be better if her papa na babalawo.

8. Conversion – I will change him/her after marriage. 99% chances are that he/she will not change after marriage if they didn’t change before marriage.

Some convert, others don't. That's why you don't know what you are getting until you get her. Like an unknown package no one can predict the content no matter how good we pretend to be.

9. Fantasy – Some just get married because others are married and they don’t want to be left out.
This is even the more reason to get married. 5 single friends and you are the only bachelor among them. Something is wrong somewhere. Ogbo onye wuo ngige, anya ato ya na ngige (/*when your peers jump a hurdle, it becomes a challenge */)


10. Low Self Esteem – Some people feel they would not get someone to marry them, else they quickly rush in with anyone that comes their way, not knowing them to an extent.

No one can really define low self-esteem. If you are overtly accommodating, you are classified as low self-esteem; if you are rough on the edges, you are called a jerk. As I come to realize, there seem to be a thin line b/w courtesy and self-esteem. Both have direct relationship ascribed to them anchored on some theories that are at best fallacy

sexymoma: please what is going on with this celebs turning to saint, Liz Benson is now an evangelist, eucheria too, Now it Taribo.
Hmmmm am afraid i might wake up tomorrow to discover Tonto dike and cossy are now general Overseer in one reputable church.

VAQAXY: @InvertedHammer:

Maybe ofocurse you are talking of Awka of 7-10years ago. I had my first degree here but by the time I got back to do my masters 3years later, I couldn't believe my eyes. A lot has changed. Even while I was doing my first degree the city bubbles how much now. There is better infrastructure now; from numerous road network to teaching hospital to e-library to Ikenga Mall @ behind Barnhill Resort. Iyi-Agu estate where the Queensuite is situated is another zone for Nite clubs and nite life activities. Population has equally grown, which has affected house rent and general cost of living. Private sectors are not left out, Onitsha and Nnewi boys are always here mostly weekends to make place thick. Hospitality industry and eateries have made the city a good and serene place to relax. Presently LG Electronics is about to complete their Mall/Boutique 5star hotel, this will revolutionize tourism in the entire SE. I will take out time to take more pix of places

Diasporan: Nigerians should emulate the Ghanian-American Comedian Michael Blackson.His originality and African accent earned him his popularity and friendship with top celebrities in America

VAQAXY: Welcome to TWITTER LOUNGE AWKA.

ckkris: If you're suggesting to anyone to challenge the Federal Govt of Nigeria, please know that the kind of Security Forces in Nigeria today is far more sophisticated. A trial will convince you.

josh4ever: Our future ARE blight! I doesn't knows why you piple is worry over a cutting of a marks. Look, it are Wetin is dey inside the head naaa!

jusRadical: Please mr spyder I would like you to explain to us how you would construct a duplex (one storey building) in 60 days.

Do you know about concrete curing and loading of concrete? Do you know the minimum duration in-situ concrete will cure before it is loaded? Unless you are using pre-cast concrete.

My friend be realistic. Unless you are part of the folks that construct unstable structures.

swtedy: Did I hear 8.8m for a five bedroom duplex?That not possible Ooº°˚ ˚°ºo to achieve such a project with that little amount please go to your quantity surveyor to do a working bill fot you before you run into trouble.

DrBaby: I do not believe dis woman's story in anyway and I pray one day we nigerians n indeed africans wl grow beyond dis mentality...such d even if such 'powers' actually exist, our disbelief in it wl actually render it void n powerless.
That being said, until u pass thru sometins in life ... u would not knw exactly how it feels.
Came home last year n was at my sisters wen all of a sudden she started developin some symptoms. Usu it starts around 2 am after a very stressless or even sometimes event-filled day. She wl just start saying she is feeling weak...n within minutes she feels so faint n paralysed dt she wont be able to walk or even stand. We wl have to carry her off d ground n transport her to d hosp sometimes leavn d children at home (oldest was 9yrs old). Get to d hosp, pay all d deposits n by morning she is fine n fit..home n den nothin happens until d next episode. We tot it was some joke or due to stress. Dis thing cont, she even got pregnant n almost died during dt period. We started gettn worried ..took her to specialist hosp... (as a doctor I do nt bliv in al des juju plus ritual or spiritual tinz..atleast nt in relation to ur health). I started gettn worried wen non of d test was revealing anything. It all came back as normal
ECG, EEG, echocardiogram, BRAIN CT SCAN, abdominal ultrasound n CT, routine blood test, urine test, chest xray, and everytin possible. She consulted my consultants in LUTH even some in der private clinics (I used to work in luth, knew all of dem personally), cardiologist, neurologist, gynae etc...she saw some of d consultants at FMC ebute-metta. Stil nothing. All des happened last year...imagine d money n all, but by morning she wl be fine afta d whole nyt episodes.
Reality dawned on me wen I came home in january...and dis thing stl continued...see us running around in d middle of d nyt ...walkn frm home to hosp..infact on one of d nyts d doctor said he wasnt gonna see us..he thinks we r just disturbn d hosp.
I rmbr d day I was comin back to d UK, I slept ova nyt on d chair at FMC ebute-metta, I rmbr lookin in her eyes n thinkn dt was d last tym I was gonna see her...I rmbr gettn home packn al my clothes both clean n dirty n rushn off to d airport in a taxi ( no time for preparatn n d normal departure tinz), I rmbr running afta a pastor at d airport to please pray for my sis who was in d hosp (bliv u me I wld neva av done dis even if I was paid...but I ad to do it...its called reality)..I rmbr crying all thru d 6 hrs flight...I rmbr crying everyday I spoke to her afta dt...stl no diagnosis till date.
It happens dt she had one colleague at work who felt she ws more qualified for d post... n gist were spreadn frm d ppl she had confided in...
Long n short this thing continued until my sis went for d monthly prog in my parents church. ..n was prayed for...its six months now...we have nt seen or heard anything (it wl be permanent in Jesus name)...and she also left her workplace...n peace is wat she has known since then.
I do not knw wat to make of dis story myself...mayb if she was here in d UK we wld av a diagnosis...mayb she was suffering frm a very rare condition...bt d sudden onset n offset of d illness stil baffles me coupled wt al d surrounding stories...
I stll do nt believe in superstition...am stl a doctor who has got lots of respect for science and medicine. ..
But one thing is I believe in miracles...
AND REALITY IS WHEN IT HAPPENS TO US.
....I knw dis sounds like crap to alot of u..bt av just let out my mind...
And I feel u Mr morgan...esp if u are bein wrongly accused. ...#peace

lordjay: Of all countries na US u wan go fight shey..issokay

FILEBE: bro. he is right. he thought outside the box.who knows if USA has planted a bug there? a tracker or something ... except that Nigeria will restructure the whole thing again
