It's about setting boundaries...

The minute your wife starts to disrespect your family... those boundaries are eroded.

Likewise the same applies to your family members. Everyone should be occupied with their livelihoods and stay on their lanes..

Na wen pokenose pokenose start and people stat 2 chook mouth in other people's business, mostly out of boredom or entitlement behaviour, problems start.


.

Oga, we all know that family system is very much valued in Africa to the extent that when a man marries a lady, it's said that two families are now married to each other. The problem with some marriages starts from the very "intial beginning"(sic). The lady knows very well that her man's family resent you and don't want her, yet she believed erroneously that "love conquers all" and that "it is their brother and son that I'm getting married to, not them". That marriage is on its way to collapse from the start. If the man's family doesn't want the lady, and she has made every geninue effort to present herself as a likeable and good person to no avail, then it's better she respects herself and move on. But desperation will not allow some of these ladies reason well.

On a more serious note, the marriage institution doesn't look like it will still exist in the next fifty years. There's something wrong with the human beings of this age. Maybe it's because of too much education and too much knowledge, as well as too much propensity to overturn age-long practices in the name of "wokeness" and the dire scarcity of loyalty and trust in ou time. The worst is that women are acquiring more "freedoms" than ever before, and the men are not comfortable with the new dawn of change. No two captains can sail a ship, so I perceive in the near future, the marriage institution will crumble and collapse. Others forms of relationship and commitments will take its place, for nature does not like a vacuum unfilled, and we are seeing some of those "less commitment" relationships today. I expect them to displace marriage

Jodano:
Women are dangerous, especially when you are rich and weak, their greed will come to play, they will cage and use you every one from your family and friends are evil, except she and her people and they have nothing to contribute to your success only to bring confusions.

Brother, na as person dey grow na im the person dey get more sense. Any small misunderstanding, even my own elderly mama go be like "Na so. That's how your father's family are". I didn't understand the extent of that statement till I put myself in a picture where my future wife will be telling my future son that his father's family is a bad family...bla bla bla. Chai. I come feel for my Okoman. And I have this same statement from some women to their children. The husband's family is always bad, na the wife own be family of saints. Since that day, e come dey do me two minds to marry. Make person no go use im money, time and resources go carry person wey go dey badmouth im family.

Left for me, the institution of marriage should collapse. It has outlived its use. People are now too wise and unbearable. Babymamaism and voluntary cohabitation should take over

begge:
Do you know what my lady friend told me? She said penis is so sweet that they are suppose to be the one paying for it not men.

Women are different. There are others who love masturbat!on like there's no tomorrow. In fact, my experiences made me start to think that majority of ladies prefer masturbation to d!CK. Maybe it's because female orgasm is far more achievable by stroking the clitoris with finger than by digging the vagina with pen!5, and most men are oblivious of this fact. Women arguably enjoy MouthAction and fingering more than penetrative sex.

It's time to abolish the bride price rule. Let both genders cheat the way they like

earthsync:
Not all men offer money and not all women offer sex. Some men offer sex some women offer money. Some men have nothing to offer some women offer money and vice versa.

Since you know all these initially, why you come dey ask the stupid question of wetin men dey offer apart from money Why not focus on the individual in question? Why would you generalize?

As for me, I believe that there are women who can offer more than sex. Na to find them be the Koko

earthsync:
yen yen yen you don't even have an argument

you wey get argument...wetin do your own money? Is it that you're perpetually broke, perpetually parasitic abi perpetually stingy? Which one? Since men only offer money in relationship, offer money too so that the equation go balance.

earthsync:
What else do men bring to table aside money?

Nothing else. But how about your folks also bring money to the table? At least use that one equalize

You talks like them.

Because I've stayed there over the years. Talk about environmental influence

This matter is something you use that laughing emoji, when talking. It doesn't make sense.

They were there before Obiano and will still be there after Obiano.
We know all of them. I remember when I was too vocal about this before they called and explained a lot to me. After then I realised that the only way out was dissolution of Nigeria.
Let me tell you one secret. No agbero operates without the knowledge of police and they operate few meters from police Checkpoints. For example the one before dust bin site after Electrical Obosi is 2 meters before police Checkpoints. Most times both them and the police will be talking to the same driver at once

This is true

BKayy:
Nnewi and Onitsha are totally different.
The new plazas around round about are trying to replicate the Emeka Offor plaza style because that is where most of them came from but the Vigilante are teaching them serious lesson.
The difference between Nnewi and Onitsha is that when you are in Nnewi you'll know that you are in somebody's Town but in Onitsha, you'll feel like you are in no man's land. Sorry for using the word

;Dthe worst is that the Governor encourages tout activities in a way. Imagine say some group of thugs are known as "Umu Obiano"

collagiatepaper:
My argument is that Aba is a jungle compare to Onitsha, no insult intended though

Ngwa let's agree to disagree

BKayy:
I hate that lifestyle. That is why people avoid Onitsha for Nnewi.
If you enter parks in Nnewi you'll forget that you are in SE

You're right. Nnewi is a calm version of Onitsha. And it's an established business hub

collagiatepaper:
The truth is that Aba is a jungle compare to Onitsha or Lagos. Onitsha is a major transportation hub in the east, so it is for you to insist on going to the major transportation companies in the city to board vehicle.

Bros make we no dey argue this thing. I be born and bred in Aba. Boy which street be that for Aba? Black kingdom, Osusu, Omuma, ASA, Ngwa Rd. Name it. The only place wey I no too get ground na Osisioma and Port Harcourt Rd. Nwanne Onitsha is a little wilder. For someone that have had a taste of both places, just take my word for it.

BKayy:
"All roads"
I know them. Their ticket doesn't have destination. They have been doing that thing since time immemorial. They operate at down flyover at Chisco park opposite the old faith park that ANSG cleared. They are always fight ready.
Their target is non Indigenes.
Mr OP sorry for your experience. This is why we need Biafra. Police is part of them. They operate opposite police Checkpoints.
Their other stands are opposite side of the flyover facing Main market road, another towards ITC Park and another again before city park as you are about to detour obodo ukwu Road.
Everybody knows them. They are protected by the Police. They can beat you up if you enter their trap. Once you enter, it is either you wait for many hours for them to get more victims or you forfeit your money.
Their targets are those going to Lagos, Benin, Osun, Ekiti, Owerri, Portharcourt and Delta. For some reasons they avoid Aba. They charge times 3 of the normal fare, charge for any load even hand bag and lavish insults on the complainants. They have syndicates that occupy the bus when you come, making it look like it is a normal bus.
Once again, sorry for your experience

There is little difference between Aba and Onitsha, and that is why Onitsha always respect Aba, and vice versa

collagiatepaper:
ABA is a jungle compare to Onitsha and Lagos

Bros, I be Aba boy to the core, with enough street credibility, from Ngwa Road down to Omuma Road...but my guy, there's a difference between madman/lunatic and a psycho. The touts in Aba are madmen/lunatics, but their counterparts in Onitsha are a notch wilder. They are psychos . From Upper Iweka to River Niger bridge, I know them wella. Especially those Obosi boys. . They will never use their 6. It's always 7 for them, anytime anyday

Jbleenk:
The withdrawal could be an afterthought, don’t u think? She withdrew the money to pay her school fees according to her. She need a good lawyer to prove her case. She’s just a victim of circumstance. We’ve all been there done that. Nobody holy pass.

Nawa o. Why you dey talk like this? Is it because you're a lady as well and thus you're trying to make a case for your fellow lady...or because the late Ataga isn't related to you therefore you can spill anything you like as your thought

I will not even engage you deeply, because your sentiments are very obvious. I trust the court shaa, because when they really want to, they would always ensure that justice is done

jaxxy:
Not really. Only because she went public. Lol

Actually she is. And she is really comfortable with her "non-existent" level of morality. Which is why she was public about it. I rather be a hypocrite than be this shameless

jaxxy:
It depends. Many criticizing her are worse.

Actually, she is the worst of the worst.

jaxxy:
She is one off the very few real people In the house and at the reunion.

Is being real the same as being shameless for you?

Originalsly:
Wow!... I'm doing all that and don't even know. Let me say no more before you jump to the conclusion that I'm wooing you.

Akuko

Originalsly:
Your analysis is sooo on point! The more I think of it the more I agree with you! Afterall.... why should I not go along with a Primadonna when it comes to women and dressing?

Must you stylishly woo her? I wonder how you people do this kind of thing. Abi girls no dey for where Una dey for real life?

iamadonis2:
This is a very childish and myopic reasoning. You speak so confident that we are able to control time or can dictate our time on earth.

You're even soft on him in my opinion. Like I should waste one year of my life based on sexcapades and other escapades As for me, the £**k wey I don £**k as underG don dey enough. I was literally cohabitating with my lovers. But after school, I will jump into more serious and profitable ventures right away. No time to waste, let alone waste a whole year in "serving" a useless country

breathelove:
Sue him for doing what? Sue him for not drinking coke? They only want to make him much richer by bringing up weak cases against him. Cocacola and Ronaldo's parts bearly cross. It would be hard to hurt him. I am not sure we have too many examples of superstars who were sued by multinationals for refusing to use their products

I never said that Ronaldo owes Cola a duty to drink their product. It's nobody's business what anybody drinks, so far as it isn't illegal. But trying to demarket and make such a popular product lose relevance isn't to be taken lightly.

Mind you, I'm not saying that Cola would move to sue him now, neither am I saying that it must be for obvious demarketing reasons. Remember he had a rape charge against him in the past. Imagine if in the future when he has hung his boots and is no longer as relevent in the football world as he is now, and other ugly allegations begin to rear up their ugly heads against him, both true ones and trumped-up ones, and Cola then thinks it's the right time to punish him for his arrogance by lending financial muscles to his detractors....... it's not going to be easy for him and his funds.

The point I'm trying to pass is this, he could have ignored those coke bottles. Making the company his enemy openly was unwise and unnecessary, inspire of his beliefs. And however you see it, Ronaldo is not invincible. If Michael Jackson and R. Kelly were cut to size, then even Ronaldo should be wary.

styleewhyte:
Coke should have made a banner.. I don't support CR7 on that but let's take it this way... Make a banner.. The company's know what they are doing, You don't need to keep your drinks on the table. Players have faiths and believes.. And Many Fans look up to them... To see products they endorse

They can sponsor the tournament but don't need the Product on the table, it kinda implies the players take them...

If UEFA is this Naive to to warn countries... These top players will start turning down these press conferences... And that will be worse and they can use their platform against the company..

The companies sure know what they are doing, according to you. It's the players that I'm not sure if they are possessed or something. Something you can just ignore and peace will continue to reign. Maybe in your social media accounts, you can then declare your beliefs. So because I'm not a Catholic, I should go about defacing and pulling down statutes of the Holy Mary

Ronaldo, Pogba and Locatelli are a stupid bunch. They are even more stupid if they don't boycott the Euros and go home to sleep, since their personal beliefs are worth more than their career and money. The three of them are babies in adult bodies

frankson1:
It's a very simple question that I asked and I'm asking because I want to know.
What and how can Coca-Cola company get back at CR7?

Besides, I can't make anything out of your first paragraph because it didn't answer my question.

I said something about hitting him with vexatious lawsuits when he's no longer protected by the big dogs after his playing days, probably to deplete his funds and make him bankrupt. It happened to Michael Jackson.

frankson1:
What can Coca-Cola do to him? Seize his properties, stop paying him salary or stop feeding him..what exactly?

CR7 should not even continue with the campaign because Coca-Cola 'go hear am'.

God use people to bless people. The tournaments that Ronaldo have starred in were due to people's sponsorships. Ronaldo is big, but Cola is definitely much bigger. If you doubt me, let Ronaldo sponsor just one Euro Championship all by himself.

But if you fail to grab the sense in this first paragraph, I don't think there's much need to explain that Cola can really get back at Ronaldo if they mean to. If to you, Ronaldo is invincible, then so be it

breathelove:
You talk as if Coke is the Mafia that would send hitmen to him. I don't see how coke can affect Ronaldo's image or his personal brand. True Ronaldo's popularity may not always be this high but it has nothing to do with coke. I really don't see them sending a hitman after Ronaldo.
Ronaldo has made himself an ambassador of healthy living. he does not drink alcohol, He controls his diet and has remained fit and healthy all through his career. His action is one that many young sportsmen should emulate if they seek to get to the top.

What about hit him with numerous vexatious lawsuits that would eat deep into his funds after he has retired, leaving him on the edge of bankruptcy? Suits they know they can't hit him with now because the big dogs are still interested in his career and would surely cover him so that he won't feel a thing, so Cola now wait till he's done with football and the big dogs have moved on to the latest prospects?

My dear, there are many ways to kill a rat, hitmen aside. All I'm saying is that it is not good to make an enemy, especially where this is unnecessary. And no matter how much we try to construct possibilities, there are still other ways Cola can hurt Ronaldo than we can ever imagine

It's silly to pick a fight for the sake of it. Ronaldo's hints towards better living by avoiding cola products are commendable, but unless he has a beef with the company before and he's trying to get back at them, then his actions are just plain foolish and suicidal.

Because at the end of the day, Cola is a bigger brand than Ronaldo, and it is expected that it would outlast him both in prosperity and influence. As it stands, Ronaldo's influence would begin to wane by the time he hangs his soccer boots. Maybe Cola cannot get him now without a disaster of tremendous magnitude befalling the football world, but about the days after he has hung his boots? Maybe then, Cola would be able to get at him like they would really want to without much trouble.

In conclusion, you can't piss at where a man makes his living and expect him not to hate you. Amassing enemies is a stupid venture, however you look at it.
It was far better if he had ignored whatever was on the table. Ronaldoo has made Cola his enemy. It remains to be seen if he's capable of whatever shit they would throw at him, whether now or later.

redsun:
That was not a premeditated murder. He didn't have to kill himself for that. With a good lwayer, he probably would have gotten away scot-free in that lawless country.

The so-called law enforcement personnel are themselves victims of rogue and lawless governance.

You say what In this Nigeria?? Bros, forget lawyer for this matter. This is Nigeria. Besides, he's a soldier, so he'd have faced a military tribunal, and their proceedings are not made public.

The only thing that could have saved him was a strong Oga at the top who could sway the decision to his favour. Only the fact that the innocent deceased was from another armed forces agency makes the situation very complicated. You don't expect customs chiefs to handle the matter lightly
