etrange:Permit me to join the discussion. You're absolutely right. In a fair world, HK should be allowed both by China and Britain to determine its destiny- whether to be an independent state or be reunited with China. But this world is not a fair world. Meanwhile, try to understand the perspective of China in this matter. HK was always part of China, till after the Opium wars. Then China was a relatively weak country, economically and militarily. They were unfairly dominated by the British, and forced into making "unequal" treaties. Today, China is no longer the country it used to be some 150 to 200 years ago. It is now a world power, and certainly a match for Britain in terms of wealth and warfare. Don't blame China. She reserves every right to get back at those who messed her up in recent history, as well as take back(or even annex) a region that used to be part of her. The only problem is that it's the people of HK that really feel the heat. If the UK will ever respond, it will only be by proxy |

TripleOh7:You get the point now ![]() |
TripleOh7:Nigeria is a British ally and will side it against China?Nawa for you oBetween Britain and China, which do you think that Nigeria depend more on today? |
43 casualties cannot die in hand-to-hand combat. That number is too big. Even in full scale cult wars here in Nigeria, 43 is too big. Shots were definitely fired. Maybe not from heavy weapons, but shots were definitely fired. I no buy this story at all. I just hope the situation does not escalate. Else, supply lines from China to other parts of the world would be seriously tampered with, since ships from China most probably pass through Indian waters in order to get to Africa, Europe and America. |
Deebwebb:I do, Mr. Chairman. But a personal business POV, I prefer a hike in cost to an extension in time. I rather waste money than waste time. And so far as other wholesalers, retailers and consumers would pay the price I fix on the goods after I'm done with clearance, then I have no problem. But I get your point. As a freight forwarder, anything to maximize profit after expenditure on the freight in your care is entertained. But even at that, I know merchants in Kano whose goods come into the country through Onne. Las las they are overcharged, but they get their goods promptly. And the principle of "waste of money" over "waste of time" prevails. As for clearance of car, both you and I know that the reason is political ![]() |
yashika:Abeg no dey tell people about our Onne. Before dem go come congest here as well. I take God beg you. Make dem dey their lane for Lagos |
2loadedguy:Don't mind the hypocrites. Na for people wey even get ear to listen to their blackmailing. As for me, personally I don cut off my own ears. |
Confusedgirl869:What if the mother stay in the same house with me ![]() Besides, you will definitely forget to ask yourself this question in a situation where the father, even though he is legally married to his wife, does not stay with her in the same state or country for work related reasons. Las las make marriage no mad una o. |
Metaphysical27:You're beating a dead horse. Marriage is not a palatable idea to me as a man. I prefer that stuff you call "fornication". And I know that there are girls that want the same arrangement too...or will eventually accept the same arrangement. So stop disturbing yourself. I don't have anything to achieve when I justify my personal convictions to a stranger on the internet. And about my children, I will take care of them as a father would. Worry about taking care of yours |
Metaphysical27:If the institution of marriage fails and is invalid, definitely something else will operate in its place. Nature does not leave a vacuum in the grand scheme of things. Check marriage, check babymamaism. The only notable difference is commitment. Now two individuals(a baby-mama and a baby-papa) that really love each other and can make sacrifices unconditionally for each other can work towards more forms of commitment. It's that simple. They can also decide within themselves to make their relationship exclusive to themselves. And in such situations, they can make wills that ensures their offsprings are entitled to their property and wealth. |
As a Nigerian that have lived in Nigeria since my birth, I have come to realise something about most fellow Nigerians- at the very core of their DNA is hypocrisy and pretence. My people cannot say something with their lips and not mean another thing. So when they see an honest man who is firm enough to tell his stance about marriage, they are astounded. The truth of the matter is that I don't even understand why the institution of marriage is still surviving. You see the same people in this thread clamoring that marriage is the best decision they will ever take and that the guy is plainly irresponsible, some of them are adulterers and adulterers-in-waiting. Some of them secretly loathe marriage and crave the freedom that comes with singlehood. I know some girls who marry because of financial security. They confided in me that if they were financially secured, no stupid man will come close to them and preach marriage. But see them on the thread labelling a young man who knows what he wants as irresponsible. Some will advocate for the institution of familihood with continued ancestral lineage as their point. As if their late fathers and grandfathers still remember from the grave that they left behind a family. Abeg stop that useless blackmail. All man for himself. Op, welcome to the age of selfishness. Even the Bible recorded that in the last days, men(and women) shall become lovers of themselves. And that is why you see some men doubting the benefits that they will earn if they marry. The emphasis is on self-interest these days. So don't be mad if your guy doesn't see anything good in marriage. If you can't cope with the idea of babymamaism, you can exit the relationship if you like. Please don't confuse a brother who is eager to tend to his self-interests before anything. Because the more you girls push for marriage, the more we come to the knowledge that there's something in this marriage that puts things in your favour and in our disadvantage. |
Aizen123:You should have detained the body from being carried to the mortuary while you find your way home. There's no way you should have left such critical matters to be handled by people outside your nuclear family. Even the lockdown excuse no hold water. You can travel to any part of Nigeria you like, even with the interstate travel ban in place. Now most things you would do to get things right will require a lot of wisdom and tact. At this stage, a lot of things have gone wrong. I'm almost sure you are not the one with the mortuary tally. But your case is not defeated yet. Summon your uncles, through the aid of an elder(s), to a round table discussion. Air your views politely but firmly. If anything, ask to be involved in critical decision-making. That is stage one. Two, spot out those ones who are the brains behind every evil actions exhibited by your uncles. If you're a sure man, you can bring them close. Call them more often than the rest, and try making them comfortable. This is the principle of keeping your friends close, but your enemies closer. You'd be able to come closer to better Intel than what you have at your current disposal. But you must be very careful, so that they themselves don't outwit you too. The more you know, the more you get to know what to do. And don't pay much attention to their lips. You should also be interested in things that they have hidden from you too. All this while, you must be careful. What you eat and drink is paramount. Poisoning you from these means is a more efficient way to kill you than any type of juju. Meanwhile, I can't give you a complete failsafe plan that will help you from this point to the burial date. Humans are very unpredictable, and I don't know your uncles the same way I know my own people. This is where God comes in. Get close to him and ask for wisdom. All you can do right now is to gather every necessary Intel, including the fact that your father really birthed you legitimately. When you're done, involve people that matter. It'd surely cost you, but it's worth it. It's this Intel you've obtained that will help you when presenting your matter to those you have appealed to help you. And see, don't trust anybody in that family with your plans. Even friends are discouraged. Some may be sent by your uncles to learn your plans from you. My dear, there are many battles to be waged, both on this and after. May God give you the grace to win every small battle till you have completely won the war. |
Op, I just want to believe that there are vital facts that you left out in your account. Otherwise, you're not a man, to say the least. When I was around your age, I lost my father too. And I wasn't around too. But immediately I learnt of his death on the day he died, I acknowledged immediately that the mantle of leadership has passed to me. That not one vital decision would be made concerning the affairs of my family without my approval. And even though I wasn't around, I was able to persuade my uncles who were already at our home to wait for me to at least see my dad's body lying in state before they can take him to the mortuary. The convo happened through calls.They refused at first, but later agreed by the special Grace of God. And that was exactly where they started losing the battle against me and my family. When I arrived the next day, I accompanied them to the mortuary, where I was smart enough to enter details as next of kin. I also secured the mortuary tally. They asked me to give them the tally since they lived closer to the city where the mortuary was situated. I politely refused. By now they have not started showing any evil intentions. Not much later, strange things began to happen. They started holding meetings about the burials and making decisions without involving me. I knew, but kept silent. Afterall, na me hold tally. Na when me like na im that burial go hold. Soon, I started having issues with them over a burial date they chose that I wasn't comfortable with. I wasn't even involved in the choice of this date. They sent emissaries that I argued with, all to no avail. With time, other stuffs started to take form. They started accusing my mom of having a hand in the death of my father, and so many other nasties. Time will fail me to mention many other events that followed, but after they have seen that I was too stubborn to yield to their nonsense, they finally called for negotiation. This was after i have involved the Police, Army, Umunna, village elders, the village chief, youths and so many other personnel. My father was finally buried seven months after he died in a befitting manner. The matter nearly sink the community sef . Wetin concern me. I would rather that community burn to the ground than not exercise my authority as the first son of my father.See op, na who God don sign make im die na im go die. Go and face those diabolic uncles in the power and wisdom of God. Don't listen to cowards here. This people are testing you to see if you're submissive enough to be their footmat. Abeg no gree. This is almost two years since my father ceased to exist, and more than one year since he was buried. Everything he left behind, I control ALL. If there's anyone I don't control now, it's because I don't have enough knowledge about it. And about my uncles....all of them have ran away. If I tell you that I'm an only son without any brother and I was able to do this by the power of God, you may find it hard to believe. I had to write this story of mine here to motivate you. God is bigger than juju. My only issue with your account is that you may not be legitimate son, or that your mom may not be regarded in strict legal terms as a wife to your father till his death. Where these doubts are taken care of by corresponding facts, then you should exercise authority as the man of the house. May God be with you |
"Open schoo!...open school"... meanwhile even common herbal medicine dem no fit present to WHO for trial as panacea against the novel virus. You go dey wonder wetin dem dey even learn for the kind school sef. One person even open mouth say school na the economy. I laugh in Urhobo ![]() Even FG sabi say the country's educational system na scam. Na why e no even send education sector in the first place. |
MrBrownJay1:Injecting/inhaling coke can turn one into a sexual beast. But rubbing of coking on genitals in order to get your partner "high" and give them mind-blowing sex....I have not seen or heard of that before. Lemme leave you with this. The porn world is a world of so many tastes and possibilities. Of course, some porn actors would fancy this fetish of lacing their genitals with coke. If you see such porn, please mention me. Till then, I don't believe you and your tales. |
MrBrownJay1:my dear, I get the logic you are trying to put across here, but as far as I'm concerned, the "high" from cocaine is different from the "high" obtained from sex. They definitely are not the same type of "high". Now unless you can convince me that the "high" gotten from coke is the same as the "high" gotten from sex, then I refuse to be misled. This method of using coke on genitals to f**k one's partner would only work well if the partner in question is also a user of coke. He/she would, on introduction of cocaine into his/her bloodstream during sexual activity, would definitely appreciate the "high" that follows and would definitely enjoy it. Meanwhile, in that state, the body, since it's already dazed by a different kind of "high", would not appreciate fully the sexual activity going on then. Most probably, the vagina will get dry while the penis will go flaccid. Unless, again, if you can convince me that the "high" from coke is same as the "high" from sex. Tell me something else is applied on the genitals to make sex sweeter, I might believe you. But for now, I don't believe this cocaine tale. |
Abeg make una no dey insult our intelligence. A considerable number of us went to school. Application of cocaine to the human genitals in other to make sex more ecstatic and hypnotic for sexual counterparts is as dumb as anything. Primarily, cocaine is an anaesthetic drug. Application of cocaine on genitals, if anything, would numb sexual vibes flowing from the brain to the organs. Thus, while at sex, both persons won't be feeling it at all. I doubt if they would ever reach orgasm, let alone ejaculation. Beside, lacing the v@gina with cocaine would definitely alter the pH setup of the vagina, making it vulnerable to infection. The conclusion of the matter is that lacing sexual organs with cocaine would definitely not result to any mind-blowing sex. Instead, it opens the door to a lot of health risks |
fid4fid:My dear, they will still buy, so far as they need it. This challenge is even eased if you can already boast customer confidence. But even if you can't boast of this advantage yet, you can still arm yourself with patience. Now is not make unnecessary turnovers. It's better you have the goods in your shop, than to sell at a "convenient" price to your customer...and then you won't be able to replace the sold goods. Increment in prices is supposed to protect you as the seller in the long term, otherwise you go park go village. |
contumely2:It depends. If you are a businessman just like me, invest it in marketable goods. That way, the money is preserved, with the extra profit that comes from it. Otherwise, you exchange them for dollars. |
tope777:Redeemer university Nothing wey person no go hear. Even NUC fit no sabi this school.As for me, I'm hoping upon hope that schools would reopen by earliest November. This lockdown seriously dey help my life. Who school epp? |
humilitypays:Oga, take a chill pill. I don't know what you look like in real life, but I want to believe that you're not saying this because you lack in the "fine face" department. If you like, deny from now till tomorrow, women love men who are "eye candies". At least most women. And it is also possible to be rich and comfortable in addition to being an eye-candy. Christano Ronaldo comes to mind |
Lizboh:Madam, I doff my hat for you. Your opinion is the wisest on this forum so far. You really married your best friend. I just dey laugh these other ladies asking the op to report her husband to her mum. For what kwanu Seriously that is a very bad decision. Personally, I can endure my wife trying to talk to me about what she feels is sexual libido abnormality(though I would feel a little bit bad. Maybe I'm not getting things right in the other room, or we are just not sexually compatible)....but to invite your mum into that kind issue is what I won't take lightly. After she's done with her sermon and gone, I go change am for you. I won't beat you, neither will I scold you. But I will make sure you're celibate for the rest of your life. Henceforth, there will be no more "entertainment" for you in the other room. I will even "sister-zone" you sef. Like I'd replace the sweet names I reserved for you e.g honey, sweetheart etc. with "sister". You and that your mother will come to village meeting and beg me in front of the whole kindred before I can restart my conjugal duties again.Meanwhile, how I take care of my needs while you remain my "celibate wife" is none of anyone's business ![]() |
I have been waiting for something like this.... something that would discourage local production of facemasks. And I was certainly not disappointed. Any which way...Las las I go dey import that KN95, dey make bastard gains. But within me, I know that I'm playing a part in the declining state of the Naira. Na inferiority complex go kill us las las. |
Bobschieffer:Bros no mind that fool. Na small pikin im be. Me sef be wan quote am, but I come reason am say e fit be one Junior secondary school boy wey im uncle manage dash phone wey I dey follow talk with. I kukuma respect myself ignore am. Because you definitely cannot see a responsible adult, who is not making his living by diverting public funds or being an accomplice to the diversion of public funds, talk like this in this period of time. |
[quote author=allthingsgood post=88760551]Ok if only 1% of Nigerians die from it as u say, thats still 2million deaths!! You be the judge[/quote |
Immarocks:I have already seen that thread, and strongly believe that all 150 people that died in Kano(if they were really up to that number) could have died of other causes other than coronavirus. You wey even tell me make I read am, nawa for you o. People no dey die for Nigeria before the advent of coronavirus? Abeg no quote me again if you no get better thing to yan |
fortran12:Nna my brother I tire for those people. Dem just dey hype this corona nonsense. But that one no concern me again. I no follow them argue again. My eyes right now are focused on the situation in the Western world, where I'm sure the virus is REALLY having a field day. Because I know that once they lift their lockdowns over there, our leaders here in Africa would surely follow suit immediately. |
Vulcan24:leave those people. Na follow follow dem be. Dem no get sense of their own as you see dem so. |
[b][/b] Ladyhippolyta88:you don personally see person wey get coronavirus for this Nigeria? No lie give us abeg |
Immarocks:Guy I don start to dey fear una. Seriously. Before coronavirus came into Nigeria, were people not dying en masse before? Have Fulani herdsmen gone into extinction? Have Boko Haram being wiped out absolutely? Are there no longer cases of ethnic violence and clashes? Is Coronavirus now the only factor contributing to death in Nigeria ![]() Henceforth, I will stay on my own. If you don't reason properly, that is your problem. But what I know is that I will not allow someone else's insanity to affect my sanity. |
Bbbwings:Thanks for the correction. It was well noted. Though there are sources that pinned his birth year as 1938 |

and will side it against China?Nawa for you o
. Wetin concern me. I would rather that community burn to the ground than not exercise my authority as the first son of my father.
