God bless you for creating awareness for Ayomide's plight but please modify her picture and her grandma picture. You can still display their picture but blot out their faces. The internet is a big place with lots of bad people roaming.

Please update us on the visit by Nairaland charity their are NGOs and Homes that handle special kids in Lagos some may not bother about Ayomide citizenship but just wanna help.

[color=#770077]I seriously doubt that this case will eventually be tried.

If you are all wondering why Bukola Saraki 'choose' to go and see the IG rather than report at SFU Ikoyi as been touted in the media; the present IG was Bukola's father (Senator (Dr) Olusola Saraki) personal Police/orderly when he was a senator during the 2nd republic and he's still very close to the baba. So Bukola may not be seriously prosecuted afterall.

Bomb blast seems to be a daily affair now in the north! Nigerian government and security agencies appears clueless or is it helpless to tackle the menace.

It wont be long when the citizen will be push to the wall and suddenly start a revolution. From the views of an average northerner (not islamic fanatics oh), they are equally tire of these terrorist AKA Boko Haram because when they attack both muslim and christian, southerner and northerner perish along. I strongly believe that Boko Haram has long been hijacked by politicians cum capitalist to serve their selfish interest. Until our leaders grow some balls and deal decisively with terrorist (including financial/economic terrorists) and their sponsors without fear or favour this country may never no peace[left][/left]

@topic and Jennykadry
It depend on the sincerity of both partners. Imagine a woman so sincere with her finances for years but discovered subsequently that the hubby was not in fact he was keeping a concubine. Would any right thinking person advise such a woman to continue declaring & submitting her income to hubby? I think not.
Husband buys property in his name and expect his wife to be handing over her income to him every month?

He who wants equity must come with clean hands!
Some women became cunning after their bitter experiences with our men. I think our society is not yet mature enough in terms of culture to nurture a partnership kind of marriage that require absolute sincerity from both partners!

Mine was never supportive. Despite knowing how to cook or do chore; he simply believe its a woman job to get pregnant and cope at the same time. Thank God for Housekeeper and my kid sister helping me to cook my favourite efo soko and roasted fish with only pepper (no, onions, no maggi, no nothing; just pepper, salt and fish). Even the day I put to bed, he was so scare that he didn't know what to do, I had to take charge till my mum's arrival.

Thank God we still have men that are supportive

This is so useful especially Nutmeg, Cassava, Cashew, Almond. Let's have more. Happy easter!

This Nairaland 2.0 colour theme/ combination is not good. Let the designer blend in the colours.

I like the description/summary of all the boards except "Politics" what has politics section got to do with Nigerian being giant of Africa? Seun please you and the Politics section Moderators should review this, but if you need help please holla!

Where are all the smileys? Font editing buttons?

I will call off the wedding.

I won't go along with a relationship based on falsehood.

At that time, it would be too early to determine his level of insincerity; I will be wondering what other things he's hiding from me. Trust will be lacking in that union and deception will be the foundation!

Happy birthday Nairaland!
The land of the good, the bad & the ugly!

Land of information (misinformation?)
Land of comic
Land of opportunity

Happy birthday NAIRALAND! Class of 2007

[color=#770077][/color] The two of them should thank their stars for the separation. Their union would have been based on conditions; for better for stay, for worse for go. In short, it would have been marriage of convenience; they don't love each other!

[color=#770077][/color] the fact is there are shortages of female Gyn and Female doctors.

I think the practice rather should be a female nurse should be present when a male Gyn is examining a female patient and vice versa.  Until the percentage of female Gyn or doctor becomes adequate I think this should be the practice!

[color=#770077][/color] for a young couple I will say no relative. If they need help let them get someone that comes in on weekend to do general cleaning & laundry (relative or paid help). If they have a baby a relative may come for a short while to assist. Young couple need to study each other, fight & make up, bond and set the ground rules in their own house before relatives undue interference.

However it all depend on how accommodating they are and the family background. Don't go and marry Mother Theresa and expect that he/she won't be running the home like a hostel/hotel.

Its also better to discuss and agree on all this during courtship though so there are less surprises.

[color=#770077][/color] in addition to all the advises, Poster plan your meals and your time. For instance, create a meal time table, includes food you have partially cooked on weekends e.g. Yam pottage, jollof rice, parboiled rice for fried rice minus the Veggies (you can store diced veggies in the fridge and add to the rice whenever you want to eat it), porridge beans, moin moin etc. There are days that for dinner everyone in my house will take garri plus moin moin; no food to cook only warm the moin moin and less dishes to wash.

Also plan when/how you do your laundry and cleaning. Reduce Sweeping/cleaning to  weekends or 2ce in a week.

When you go for shopping go with a shopping list. It will help you to manage your shopping time, money and ensure you have all the ingredients you will need to keep your home.

Also check what part of your life or routine is the most stressful? My advise may be unpopular but have you consider getting another job with regular hour ( 8am to 5pm and not 8am to 6.30pm).

What about getting a job closer to your home or getting your home closer to your job? Do the maths it may actually be cheaper and less stressful

Chief Anthony Ani's case against the Obong was probably stalled due to the Governor's meddling. So on Friday when the Supreme court passed the Judgement on Liyel Imoke's tenure as governor of Cross River; I knew the judgement for this Obong case will be deliver any moment.

Expect more of such cases in other states affected!

Aluta continua; victoria ascerte!
N95 is not acceptable. FGN should revert price to N65!

1,100 buses deployed for over 150 million people??

Seriously, is this woman truly an economist

For pre-natal testing of babies to determine their genotype try O & G dept of LUTH, Idi - Araba, Lagos, UCH, Ibadan, OAUTH Ile Ife, UNIBEN teaching hospital and a host of other teaching hospitals in Nigeria.

If you're truly in love genotype will be the last thing on your mind. I'm AS and my hubby is AC; we don't have any SC and I always thank I did not allow genotype deprive me of a wonderful marriage. God knows I will marry my husband a thousand times over (my only regret is not marrying him early enough).

All the people talking about genotype testing even before dating; I wish you luck in getting a wonderful partner. With the advent of technology, I will rather marry whom I love and who equally loves me than getting someone with a genotype AA that is a devil re-incarnate! There are worst disease one can develop in life aside Sickle cell disease o jare!

If I may recall the most painful part for me was the intermitent contractions. They were more painful than the final push; you tend to concentrate on the contractions and anticipate the pains.

Rokiatu, just pray for a short and safe labour. Mine were always within 2 to 3 hours and I'm done.
