Hmmnn. What a question? As if the question was specifically meant for me and my wife. Well, lets give it up for the natural way. However, ours was not natural.

Permit me to narrate the story of ours. I still recall with fear how my wife shouted, cried and particularly called on me to assist her during her labour. Men!, then it was not a joking matter for me. I was just parading the corridor of the hospital like a soldier on sentry while she hollered. Many thoughts were running riot in my mind, like "If she dies now, where am I going to start from? Will I find another lady as dear to my heart like her again" .

After unseccessful efforts to give birth naturally, the doc called me and told me of the C-S option. I almost sweated in the cold hammatan weather. I thought to myself, "You mean they will tear her tommy?". The fear of losing her and the consequences came upon me again. I did not know when I started reciting Psalm 22, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me, ?" . To cut the story short, the C-S was done successfully.

The second and third pregnancies had the same problems and ended in C-S. But Glory be to God, the 3 kids are hale and hearty.

Let me tell you a bit about the third C-S. One interesting aspect about the third C-S was that I voluntarily requested to be allowed into the theatre to be with my wife, and the doc gladly accepted. It was real fun. I could recall how I was dressed in that their theatre wears, to the extend that some of the nurses could no longer recognise me. My wife and I had great support from one another as I continuously reassured her that all was well. I held her hand and we were discussing while the operation lasted. She was asking me questions like "Have they brought out the baby? What sex is it? Is he handsome?" . The doc and his operation team were very happy with my composure and the way I comforted my wife during the operation.

Very interesting True Life Story, isn't it?

Atiku is defeated even before the primaries,

North has nothing to offer jare.

^^^ I get your point but I don't think Atiku has the ayes more than GEJ. Atiku is well known to everybody in terms of his looting ability. His exploit during the BPE saga is a case in point. Does Atiku have any love for this country and he is busy transfering his looted wealth from one foreign country to another instead of bringing it back to Nigeria? I don't think so.

One thing I know is that IBB and Atiku, including Gusau, are mere jokers in the arena of current political terrain of Nigeria.

By the way. Are you aware that Atiku is selling his properties in the US and relocating to the United Arabs Emirates?

If Atiku so loved Nigeria why is he selling his properties in the United States and relocating the proceeds to the United Arabs Emirates instead of back to Nigeria.

Abeg, forget Atiku. He is a looter!

Vote GEJ.

lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My bros, this is not a laughing matter o. You need to hear from the locals in Jos how the mallams fire gunshots from their houses any time there was crisis. This is not a time to undermine any line of thought. It is a possibility.

Great one there! I'm impressed. You are really picking up faster than I thought. Put in more effort.

Why are they so afraid of losing power? They had power for decades and succeded in producing cave-men as freedom fighters and dragging the country backwards. Their youths are in the pit of illiteracy, living in the 19th century. Worse still, they can't present an auspicious consensus candidate, just the same senile, thieving, clueless men that've made them the joke they happily are. Why not take a deserved rest and give others a chance? Disgusting!

Dont mind them. I will be happy to see them leave Nigeria immediately. Nonsense.

By the way. Are you aware that Atiku is selling his properties in the US and relocating to the United Arabs Emirates? Please read this United States security report on Atiku:

The ambition of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to contest the 2011 presidential election appears to be getting some negative mention in the international security circles, following indications the United States security services have placed him under close watch.

Information at the disposal of the Saturday Tribune indicated that the United States security outfits in conjunction with operatives in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the Mi5 of the United Kingdom are working on certain information relating to Atiku.  

Sources claimed that Atiku’s activities came into focus following indications that he was putting his Potomac house on sale and relocating his interests to the UAE.

Diplomatic sources stated that Atiku is under watch after he relocated his wife, Jemilar, from the United States to the UAE.

“The reports are to the effect that Atiku is under watch for a number of issues. There are fresh insights into the Thomas Jefferson case. There are also indications that he plans to sell his house in Potomac, Maryland and relocate the proceeds to the UAE. The house is worth millions of dollars. The movement of funds around him is being watched,” a source close to the development said during the week.

Other sources said that the US is also watching Atiku over reports linking him to alleged acquisition of OPL 245 through an Italian and other associates.

“The Mi5 has worked closely with the UAE authorities in recent years. They are worried about movement of funds into the UAE. They are aware that a number of top Nigerians are fast turning the UAE into abodes and they are settled on the need to track funds no matter the intent,” another source said.

But  the spokesman of Atiku Campaign organisation, Mallam Garba Shehu, said in an interview that the former vice president believed that he was being closely monitored by the Nigerian authorities rather than American security operatives.

He said: “Atiku is not an American. He does not own investments in the US. What we gathered was that the Nigerian government plans to uproot all the Obasanjo cases against Atiku and use them to scandalise him.”

Shehu said that the House in Potomac was not on sale and that whoever planned to buy it should beware.

“What is happening is that the Jonathan government has been gathering dirty things about its opponents. We are aware that the legal adviser to the government has asked for cooperation and support from the US government so that they can reopen all those Obasanjo cases against him. And the American government told him that in all those cases, they did not find anything against Atiku and that the US government does not think it is politically wise for them to dabble into local Nigerian politics,” Atiku’s spokesman said.

GEJ remains the best of the pack.

AN opinion poll conducted by NOI Polls, in conjunction with the United States-based Gallup Poll, has rated President Goodluck Jonathan as the most acceptable presidential hopeful in the 2011 elections.

advertisement
The poll, conducted between October 7 and 11, rated aspirants, including General Muhammadu Buhari, General Ibrahim Babangida, former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, Kwara State governor, Dr Bukola Saraki and Mallam Nuhu Ribadu.

It reported that nearly all respondents (99 per cent) of the respondents said they were aware of President Jonathan's ambition to govern Nigeria from 2011, while 87 per cent of the respondents said he should run for the office. Only 12 per cent of those polled responded that the president should not stand for election in 2011, while one per cent was indifferent.

President Jonathan's closest rivals in the race, according to the polls, are former head of state, General Muhammadu Buhari and the former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Mallam Nuhu Ribadu.

NOI/Gallup said in a statement announcing the polls: "Almost all (99 per cent) of the people polled said they were aware of President Jonathan's intention to contest in the upcoming presidential election. Eighty-seven per cent of respondents said they feel he should run for office. This figure is slightly higher than before the president declared his intentions to contest, where 81 per cent felt he should run."

While 97 per cent of the respondents are aware of Buhari's intention to contest the 2011 election, only 41 per cent of the figure feel that he should run for office in 2011. Another 58 per cent say he should not run and three per cent of the population of the polls said they are undecided.

For Ribadu, 86 per cent of the respondents say they are aware of his ambition to contest the 2011 presidency but only 55 per cent think he should contest the election. Forty-one per cent think he should not run for the office.

Ninety per cent of those polled said they are aware of former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar's ambition to contest the 2011 poll, but only 27 per cent think he should run for the election. While 87 per cent of those who believe he should run say that it is his right to contest, 21 per cent of those polled say they don't want him to contest because of their view that he is corrupt.

The ambition of former military ruler, General Ibrahim Babangida, to rule is also well-known among Nigerians. Ninety-seven per cent of those polled said they were aware of his ambition but only 27 per cent feel he should run for office, while 69 per cent think he should not run.

The poll agency stated in a release: "While nearly all of those quizzed (97 per cent) are aware that Ibrahim Babangida has declared his intention to run for the 2011 presidential election, only 27 per cent think he should run for office."

Of the 69 per cent of those who said IBB should not run for president, 19 per cent gave as their reason, IBB's poor reputation, 17 per cent said he is corrupt and another 17 per cent want a new generation of leaders.

For Governor Bukola Saraki, 88 per cent of the respondents said they are aware of his plan to contest the election, while only 35 per cent want him to contest the election. Sixty-two per cent of the respondents said Saraki should not contest the election, while three per cent are non-committal.

The report stated: "While 88 per cent of the people polled were aware of Governor Saraki's intention to run for office, only slightly over one-third (35 per cent) of respondents felt he should run. Sixty-two per cent said he should not run while three per cent did not have anything to say on the issue."
When asked whether Governor Saraki should run for the 2011 election, 84 per cent of those who said he should run for the office, said he had a right as a Nigerian to vie for the office. Six per cent said he is a good man, while 35 per cent said he was experienced and a man of integrity.

Twenty-three per cent of the 87 per cent of the respondents who want Jonathan to run cited their reasons as his right as a Nigerian; 18 per cent cited his experience/competence and 16 per cent said he was innovative and a man of integrity, while 10 and 12 per cent said he was a good man and he represented a new generation of leaders respectively.

My guy, take it easy o. This thing is not for 100 metres race. It is a life time requirement. If you waste all your energy on a gf, you may only live to stare at your wify when the action is actually needed and of paramount importance. And failure to live up to expectation with your wify is tantamount to sad and miserable union, I don't want to mention divorce because I dread it. So, conserve your energy because you have a long way to go, you hear?

You are a hard case ma'am. Why do you keep stressing the same silly point over and over despite several arguments against it?

Must i remind you that men are the hunters and are naturally built to withstand such stuff. The only thing that can distress men is FINANCIAL INSECURITY! Comprendre?

It's ok, my guy. Let her stand be and stick to yours. Let there be no bad feelings. We are merely debating, abi?

Just because YOU DON'T AGREE WITH MY STATEMENTS, It silly arguments?!!!  I be damn,

Comprehend these nuts   

Please, take it easy. Don't be offended. You have made your points.
