Patriotism has a price

What price?

Go to other countries and see how patriots are honoured and placed on pedestals!

Only in Nigeria does patriotism have this kinda price!

It's crime that shouldn't pay, it's corruption that should have a price!

But what do people say? "If you dey there, you go do pass am sef", and corruption goes on.

I wonder when Nigeria will crash the way things are going, because it's no longer a matter of "if" anymore.

I just thought to share and again it's no bodys business what I share about myself here. I chose to do it and don't care if it sits well with anyone or not. My life, my share .

I'm sharing this just to let some ladies know that being a widower doesn't break a man and will not stop him from being an unrepentant cheat if he wants to. I used to think a widower will be more responsible and loyal to one woman considering the fact that he's now a second hand value bachelor and the death of his former wife will make him get closer and more committed to his spouse, home and family at large but I was wrong cos after my experience with one, I realized men will always be cheat men.

This happened in 2013 after staying away from relationships for a long time. So I joined Badoo ( it was the rave then, though I joined in 2012). A young man ( in his 40s then) chatted me up and I checked his profile. There he stated that he was looking for a lady for serious relationship and added he was a Christian. He was also looking very handsome and tall. We chatted and exchanged numbers.

When we got talking he told me he was a widower. It was hard to believe because he looked very young. He now told me he married very early. He went ahead and told me he has 6 children 👀👀👀. I didn't believe until he showed me their pics. 4 girls and two boys. He said the wife kept having children because she wanted a male child and died after giving birth to the last child, a male. She got home from the hospital after childbirth and started bleeding immediately and was rushed back to the hospital but never made it back. Meanwhile he was not in the country when this happened.

This made me have compassion and developed feelings for him. After a few months of inviting me over, I finally agreed to visit after he assured me the elder sister is staying with him to look after the baby ( he was already a year then but was not walking). He never liked the boy because he was always saying the boy caused his wifes death and each time the baby boy sees him, he'll be screaming due to the way he looks at the baby and I'll be telling him to stop, teasing him that it's him the boy resembles. So when I visited for the first time, I was shocked at what I saw. He actually owns the house he was living in in Sango. He built it when the going was good but after the wife's death, he came back and stayed for a whole year without a job. He just got the job he was doing as a hotel manager when I met him and his take home was not good at all. So to maintain the big house was a challenge. He could barely feed his kids. Even the two older ones were not with him. They were living with his brother just to ease him of the burden. when the sister saw me, she got angry and told him that he has not finished taking care of his children he's bringing in another lady. He told me to ignore the sister and face him. If I go there, I'll cook and serve everybody because he was always complaining of not having money but sometimes he'll give me part of the money I used.

Initially the children didn't like me and he said I should be buying them snacks. So then if I close from work, I'll go and meet him at his office and we'll go home together. I bought snacks and the children reluctantly collected the snacks. He went to work on that Saturday and I gathered the children and started telling them stories. They began to come close. When he got back he drove all of us to a football viewing center and bought me pepper soup. I thought I had found the right man. I was even saying I don't need to birth any children since he already has six. We'll just stay with his own children ( lol . small girl sense). He would tell me no, that he wants me to give him a beautiful daughter like me.

Six months into the relationship, I noticed something in his room while he was away at work. I saw a foreign prison card in his jacket I now began to connect the dots. I remembered him saying he was away when the wife died and while she was pregnant, he had problem abroad. So she developed BP. He even told me he wasn't around when his house was built that the wife supervised the whole thing before he now had a problem but be never told me what the problem was. I then discovered with the prison card, he was prolly in jail all that time. I didn't ask him anything.

Later he started telling me there's this single mother that has been begging him to marry her and she buys him stuff. I was like marry her now afterall two of una na second hand value. He'll laugh and say God forbid. That he wants chassis. The lady buys him and his children stuff. At a point I told him to stop collecting the gift or risk our relationship. He promised to stop.

One day he was sleeping and i was just going through his phone ( I never used to do that) and saw "my love". My head sparked. I woke him up with a heavy slap and showed him, he started saying its you I love. I said no! Tell me who this Is.. then I began to cry because I just knew it was over. He started begging and called his Aunty into the room. The aunty said the person is a family. I said call her. He now called the number and an elderly woman picked and he started telling her that I'm crying my eyes out here because I saw a message he sent to her. The woman spoke with me but I wasn't convinced. Throughout that night, he played "please forgive me' Brian Adams. hmm.. feeling nostalgic now. I calmed down and we continued.


After some months my chairman sacked me because I refused to go out with him and told him I'm in a relationship. After I lost my job I reduced my visits because bus fare from mainland to Sango was quite expensive and he too could not sponsor my visits regularly due to so much financial responsibilities and since I had been the one doing it when I was working. It became a once in a while thing.

Then one day, he told me to come to his office let's go home that he has missed me. I asked him, do you have money he said we'll manage. This man did not tell me we were going by train ( chai things we do for love) from his office we set out to oshodi. This man put head for train lane. I said waaaat t... I almost went back but it was already getting dark. I entered train for the first time. See me shaking. He had to hold me before one man now stood up for me to sit. Because it's been a while I've been to the house, when we got home, the aunty said you'll not stay in one place. Today you carry this, tomorrow you carry another one. I told him what the sister said and he told me not to mind her. In my mind i was like... see this second wen I dey manage too wan dey play ... I kept asking until he now confessed that the Aunt was referring to the other single mother that the lady has been forcing herself on him but it's me he wants. There and then I zeroed my mind.

After that visit, as we were going that morning, we quarreled on the way because the vehicle we borded got spoilt plus I wasn't happy after hearing what the sister said. So I was just edgy that morning and blasted the driver and some of the passengers. He got angry and left after trying to get me off the bus and I refused, saying I should run after him cos he's running late for work. I was just looking at him. I didn't get down. I waited for him to go far, I now got down and took another route to my house.

I didn't call for a week and refused to pick his calls because whats the point killing myself over a widower with six children who has refused to stick with one woman. When I eventually picked, it was my guy ( now ex) who told me to pick in the bus that day we were going to camp and he was chyking me. Oga kept calling and as usual I ignored him but the sound was disturbing our conversation so my gy told me to pick and hear him out. I picked and he was crying and put all his children on the phone to beg me. He said they are missing me and one of them is sick. I said ok, I'll call you later. That was it. I blocked him. Went to Badoo and blocked him there in fact I deleted my Badoo account. Deleted his number and ended the whole thing..

Men will always be men

Modified

When I said all men are the same what I'm simply implying is, whether they are poor, rich, widower or handicapped they will still cheat or have that tendency to cheat. Take it or get lost!

A man's vulnerability doesn't stop him from exhibiting those bad habits (cheating and deception). They'll will always do that thing that make us call them meennnn... If you know what I mean and if you don't Gerrit, forget abourit. .

Hmmmm.....you met a criminal.

In fact, he did nothing.

Keepamsafe:
For two weeks now, my next door neighbor who is a young single lady has been constantly bringing different meals for me after cooking.
Please note: I have never asked her for food before, as I cook at home and enjoy doing my things myself.

The second time she brought me a meal she wore a skimpy dress. I didn’t mind tho, I just told her she is a very good cook and I enjoyed the first meal. Since then, she’s been bringing different dishes to me now. Sometimes she even calls to know if im back from work that she’s cooking something.

Also note, I have never given her any money for this meals she’s been giving me.

My question now is, should I continue eating? do I have anything to be scared of? Could there be another motives behind this her kindness? Or maybe im over thinking?

Advise please.

Every man will die, Bro.

Even people who hope to go to heaven will have to die when their time comes.

Death is not perceived to be a good thing, but who will escape it?

Do you know how many pastors died in prison during the Soviet communist era?

Do you know how many Christians were torn to pieces by lions during Roman times?

Lemme tell you, if one is focussed on the spiritual, this body is only temporary. All the people you listed, had to die one way or the other.

All men should believe what they like, but we who believe in God know that death is simply a gateway to eternity and should be faced as a necessary eventuality.

I'm surprised that you only listed pastors. what of the terrorists and suicide bombers who embrace death because they believe their lot in the afterlife is better than in the present, especially if they take others along with them?

You're only ranting because you feel death is bad. Well, it's a part of life as much as eating, breathing and sex.

beardedboy:
So many anti-Islamic practices here:

1. Marrying with agreement to divorce is prohibited. The messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said on the day of his final Hajj:
"Oh people, I used to allow you do mut'ah (temporary contract marriage) with women. (Now) Allah has forbidden it till the day of judgement (i.e forever and ever)."
- Saheeh Muslim: 1406.

The Arabs used to do contract marriage before Islam but Islam didn't prohibit it for them immediately because they were still new to faith. This is similar to the gradual prohibition of alcohol.

2. Parents shouldn't marry their daughters off without her consent.

3. Visiting a 'native doctor' to endear you to your spouse is an act of magic, sorcery and disbelief. Allah (Sublime and Exalted is He) says:
"They followed what the Shayatin (devils) gave out (falsely of the magic) in the lifetime of Sulaiman (Solomon). Sulaiman did not disbelieve, but the Shayatin (devils) disbelieved, teaching men magic"
Surah Baqarah: 102.

If teaching Magic is disbelief, then practicing it is worse. And the patroniser of magicians is an accomplice in disbelief.

Toh.....

After all the Quranic quotation, the man house don burn.

So what's your summary on this issue now?

Sign of APC "good governance" as claimed by Gandollar.

Medium76:
The concept of "Landlord" is traceable to the English feudal system which trickled down to Nigeria by virtue of Nigeria being a former colony of Britain. A landlord is the Lord of an Estate. It denotes the owner of a land or building that lets same out to others for rent.

So Sir, if you own a land, you are as much a landlord as one who owns a building.

Every Nigerian ought to own a portion of the Federal Capital Territory. Abuja is our common heritage as Nigerian citizens.

The good thing is, Land no cost for Abuja, Na you wan buy am for Maitama. Even sef, Land no even cost for Maitama, Na you no buy am on time.

For as low as 800k, you can become a Landlord in Abuja. Don't take my word for it, you can click this LINK to see for yourself.

Uncle, the work you're looking for is "LANDOWNER" not "landlord".

You iwn a house and live in it, you're a HOMEOWNER.

You own a building other people live in and pay your rent, then you become a landlord.

Owning a plot in a bush somewhere doesn't make you a landlord.

Ok. Height of negligence on the part of those parents.

Exactly.

I had to find a circumspect way to state it, because, if I wrote such a terse summary, I can come across as insensitive, seeing that the parents just lost a child, but.....it is what it is.

GanagiBitrus:
Meaning they either raise the walls further or stop kids from going there.
Else another kid will soon drown again.

When I was living in such a setting (compound with well) I used to pursue kids coming to fetch water.

Some older kids will stand on the raised wall and be fetching, I will shout on them to get down.

All the while doing this and being a parent myself, i severally found myself wondering, but these ones have parents, naa! In fact, it's the parents that sent them to go fetch water!

It's just beyond me.

GanagiBitrus:
Too bad.
The well most likely had no protective ring around it.

They do have raised walls round them.

Kids like to stand on these walls as they fetch water.
