Its a shame! This OP hasn't watch football for the past 3years.

Btw, all what dis guy is saying, is assumed by Ronaldo haters but none of it is true

See cap like those of us from waterside

Winner takes the top spot. I don't care who wins, just want to see Zlatan and Suarez score shikena

orobs93:
We need change. We need change we need change.

how much change u need? #1000? In #100 or #50 denomination

Somethings don't seem right in this story for eg

Wat were the other police men doing while this one was assaulting them(usually, police would either join their colleague or restrain him)

So the woman was busy taking pix and recording video of her husband being brutalised

Who was recording when she was being assaulted

What was the cab driver doing all this time

How comes their right eyes are clearly open while the left are completely closed

How comes no swelling, blood stain or injury anywhere else except the left eyes shey dem relate to lisa"left eye" lopez

No passersby all through the incidence

#28million that mr Nda-Isaiah should have used to give his staff christmas bonus, he bought presidential form. No campaign posters(except a handful in Niger state which I'm sure was sponsored), no tv or radio ad, no tour, nothing.

I guess he's eyeing the Presidential spokesman's position if APC wins.

Welcome to Nigeria! The only country in the world where there's free lunch

If there's one shoe I don't want to be in right now, it is that of Brendan Rodgers

APC is just shameless! No class at all. Grabbing all those who don't stand a chance in PDP just to get a representation yet they'll come and tell us they represent change. What type of change? Dumpsite change or what.

No manifesto, no ideology, no principle, no plans at all. Anybody can come from anywhere even 5mins to election and win the primaries. I wonder if there sale of interest form has no closing date.

APC reminds me of packman

pweetixandy:
Thief thief pastor!

what is your problem in life

What is this Warri man up to sef He has been throwing money up and down like no man's business

i guess that is his reward for all the free mc work and tongue lashing of PDP he has been doing since decamping 'D

but he won't win sha! He's too nonchalant

Don't have a particular favourite. But I enjoy eba and groundnut soup a lot

Then God is not God because that would be a contradiction of his word.

Btw, Islam started later so if there'll be a contest for "true religion" on judgement day, then the competition, should be between Christianity and the religions that existed before it.

Saints(Heaven) vs Devils(Hell)

Saints all the way

If a man that knew he stood no chance in PDP, could just switch over and in 24hrs, clinched the guber ticket, it shows that there's no serious competition in APC kebbi state.

Btw, when and how did he get the expression of interest form

This op is funny! He sat in his sitting room, conducted a survey in his mind and concluded it. Wike is far more popular than Peterside. What may work against him is gov Amaechi's support for peterside and the call by the minority ethnic groups, for a change from an Ikwerre Governor.

But if votes would be by popularity, charisma, experience, financial strength and ability to woo supporters, Dakuku Peterside doesn't come anywhere close to Wike.

The rate of homicide especially one involving couples is becoming worrisome. Couples killing each other over inconsequential things.

@22 she already has 2kids which implies that she got married as a teen.......

Should we open a pre-marital endurance testing centres for would-be couples where we they are put through real marital challenges to test their compactability/ tolerance level

Wow Danny Wilson! Remembered him from way back!

Call me danny wilson
Danny wilson! Danny wilson
And I'll do u raggamuffi
Ragg ragg raggamuffi
Whiteman call me
Blackman call me
Everybody call me raggamuffi

Fun song back then. But the guy don tey na. I guess this is not his 1st marriage then.

Congrats to him and his family. I see he has that his famous punk

jamace:
Hope OBJ included how he used his position to take advantage of his son's wife and how his family disowned him because of his selfishness.
Did he include how he forced contractors to build him his Ota hilltop mansion?
Did he include how he forced govs to donate to his library?
Did he include how he made himself petroleum minister yet there was no fuel and fuel scarcity persisted?
Did he include how he converted govt lands meant for operation feed the nation into Obasanjo farms?
Did he tell the world that he used his EFCC to chase political opponents into line?
Did he inform the world how he forced Gov Mbadunuju to continue to bribe political godfather?
Hope he included how he used minority to impeach Gov Joshua Dariye in Plateau State.
Did he state his role in the assassination of Bola Ige, Pa Rewane, and others?
Is it in his book that instead of building universities for Nigerians, he built private university for only the children of the rich?
What about his longer throat for power to go for third term, is it there?
Hope he included how he junketed the world with Nigeria money to source for the best expatriates for his Ota farm

if he doesn't include it and all his other atrocities, then he's a hypocrite

I see! So all his recent activities have been publicity stunts to draw attention to his book

Looking forward to getting a copy the only book off his I've read is "my command" I hope he also state how he ruled for 8years and his failed attempt to initiate a 3rd term move.

emiraty:
4 years wao!!!!. Hope you will be available when I need to rub minds on a case.

Still learning how to crawl would love to have an experienced person to guide me . I do have them at the voulunteer centre but.............

Have a blessed day ahead

sure! with all pleasure. Have a wonderful day ahead also.

emiraty:
I can agree with you but not on love aspects. Some parents have actually revealed they do not love their kids and gave reasons as to how or why they had them.

It took me over 3 months to harden my heart on some cases. I was too emotional and was advised at work but now am okay. I mean its not advisable for me to be a counsellor and be crying right?

I just want to give my bit on helping kids. Adolescent year is the most challenging and lots of trouble kids out there

I can understand with you. Being a counsellor can be demanding physically, mentality and emotionally. I have been a counsellor for a few years now(4 precisely) and I know what I am saying.

I don't know the kind of people you have met, but I guess they are mostly single parents or those that got married out of circumstance(s) beyond their control or those that got into marriage for the wrong reasons. But the percentage of such is not much compared with those who have feelings for their kids.

All the same, i appreciate your decision to work with young people especially in their formative years. I pray grace and wisdom richly abound for you.

Abeg na wetin be the meaning of Wike because with the frequency it is being called, and the figure attached, I'm assuming Wike means number.....eg number 1 number 2 number 3......number 55

Dombari is trying also

Wike
Wike
Wike
And more Wike
Even more Wike

One man will be strategising now how to frustrate Wike from winning the election to brick house and I won't be surprised if he witdraws another 20billion naira from state reserve to achieve this

The only thing I dey hear is....

Wike 1 wike 2 wike 3 wike 4 wike 5........wike 54 wike 55

I don't quite agree with you here. So you would advise a 21 years old to leave the house without the permission of either of the parent just to prove a point that she's matured? That is called sneaking out and matured people don't sneak out of the house.

It is not compulsory that she attends. Truth is, she doesn't owe those friends of hers, her presence no matter how much she thinks she does. She is under authority and the authority has passed a verdict. Maturity will teach her to obey that verdict and even if she wants to complain about it, she should do it after the event. That shows respect for her folks.

Even in the Law, You don't break rules to prove a point even else you will pay dearly for it. Sensible discussion is what make sense.

Let's view it from your angle, let's say she goes on to attend without permission and unfortunately, something negative happens? Who will take responsibility for it?

The fact that the parents refuse to grant her permission, yet leave the gates open, shows they trust she'll obey them. That shows they know she has attained some level of maturity. It is only a matter of time before she begins to enjoy freedom in wider areas. Nothing will happen if she doesn't attend this event, and there'll be many more events to attend so why the rush.

It is only when you are faithful in little, that you'll have bigger ones committed to you.

Btw, the op didn't say if this attitude is towards her only or to all her siblings(or atleast I didn't hear her say so)

emiraty:
My dear I agree with you and by the op's narrations, her mum is loving and protective. She should thank God for this as its a blessing. but do note that a lot of parents are not.

It will surprise you to know that what you assume is being protection is not.they might have selfish reasons

The way some parents behave, or speak is devastating. I have come across a lot and work in an ngo presently as a volunteer.

Am presently also trying to be avolunteer counsellor for teenagers.when I was discussing with one of the counsellors. If I start relating stories to you of mental abuse alone not even sexual, I swear even if you are hard, you must shed a tear.

Yes, this is the ideal scenario of a good parent as you penned down but...........believe it or not most are not.

really I don't deny that a number of them might be selfish and abusive(if you study those parents closely you'll discover majority of them had family challenges early in life or are experiencing one form of mental challenge or the other). No right thinking parent will abuse their children.

You can say they are insecure or don't know how to effectively communicate their care for their children but I know the average parent, wants what is best for their own kids( some might be indifferent about other peoples children though)

Like I said, their approach might not be the best and may seem cruel, but if only you can see into their intent, You'll understand with me.

I can tell you that even though some parents might not love or relate with the kids the way the kids expect them to, it doesn't mean they don't Love them in the way that they could.

Araha ta fi bashi

Bashi ta fi sata

1. No matter how grown a child is, he/she can never outgrow their parent

2. As long as you are still under their roof, they have 100% right over you irrespective of your age or academic level. Whatever leverage you get as solely at their discretion.

3. It is the obligation of every parent to protect their children as to say you stay in the north and the school has been turned into a one-religion school, it is the more reason why they should keep a close eye on you.

4. Is their attitude towards you alone or to your other siblings also? If it is to you alone, then there's an issue of trust. Perhaps they are scared of the unknown- you can't quite trust some kids these days with all the filt on tv and internet.

5 at 22, you are still young: atleast here in Nigeria you are still a child. Forget about all these, "once you are 18, you are an adult mumbo-jumbo"

6. Call you friends and simply apologise to them, stating the reason why you can't come- you were not allowed to. As for the gift, once it has not been handed out, it is still your personal property so do whatever you want with it. But I won't advise you to go bother your folks over the matter again else they might begin to suspect you have an ulterior motive.

I want us to understand how parents generally act: whatever they do, they do with good intention even though some of these decisions are needless or frustrating. No right thinking parent does anything to wicked his child just that sometimes, their methods are so crude it looks like wickedness.

Mentality is also another factor influencing their actions. A lot of parent(from the other generation) believe this generation is corrupt morally and otherwise and the best way to keep their wards "safe" is to be "protective" but that doesn't always work out well because curiosity and rebellion have pushed some kids into what the folks wanted keeping them from.

Religion and culture also play a big role. In the african culture, females particularly are more vulnerable and so need to be more in the safety of the home- whether their parent's home or husband's home. Also, when a single lady is independent, society view on her(through the eyes of culture and religion) are mostly in negative light. This is why most parent don't like it when their grown up single daughters, choose to live alone. They'll rather she live with them even if she is working, until she gets married.

Truth is, it is the duty of parent to protect their children because they'll account for them before the society and before God. This is why they employ whatever means they feel will help achieve this(though some of these means are not cool or necessary)

Finally, your parents Love you: whether they show it often or not, they do Love you. Don't ever hold grudge or get angry at your parent for any reason even if their decision was a wrong one.

All I saw from those tweets is "dem say dem say"

Btw, why's that lady's face put Na she be the radio without battery or na she be the married woman
