You're only complaining because you're supporting Fubara. If you're supporting Wike, you won't be complaining about this madness.

Why would anybody support Wike in this dance of shame he has chosen to dance in Rivers State?? Only an insanely unreasonable person would support him.

Fubara should deploy every powers at his disposal to assert himself as the executive governor of Rivers state now! Even if it means using all the militants in the creeks of Niger delta.

Wike's own don too much abeg. Nobody should be allowed to exert such level of power in a democracy! It's unhealthy for democracy!

pocohantas:
Taken for granted...🎵🎵

You think??

You're wrong nne. I'm hooked for real

pocohantas:
Pray for whoever has taken you.
She needs the prayers more to keep you uninterested in other people's business. Happily taken men are never nosey. 🤝

I'm taken by an angelic young girl and I can assure you that we're good together.

On your own part, you really need to stop doing sugar daddies and pray for a real husband! I'm serious about it. You're getting old and I hope you know that old age is not what you should spend alone, especially for a woman like you.

pocohantas:
My dear, go find food chop abeg. No one cares if you are taken. Hopefully in your next life you elicit that kind of care from random people.

I've had breakfast and expecting lunch anytime from now. I'm not suffering from tinubulation like you.

I care about you and that is why I keep praying that a real husband should locate you soon, not sugar daddies.... Amen!

pocohantas:
Obviously you are not part of the handsome Igbo men to be begged. That counts for something. Introspection at its finest.

Oh! You don't know?! I'm taken

So, I'm more concerned about you hooking a real husband, not sugar daddy! You see, I care about your well-being.

pocohantas:
As expected. Sugar daddy no be husband indeed. Like say your papa loss.

:DSugar daddy nor be husband o

Better beg these our handsome Igbo men to stop marrying oyinbo so that ladies like you can have a chance...lolzzzzz

pocohantas:
Jealousy for what? Is any of them married to my man? Please have sense, it is Oct 2024. ✌️

You don't have a man of your own Poco!


Sugar daddy nor be husband o

id4sho:
Fubara should ban Wike from coming to the state. Chase him back at the airport anytime he lands

Chimaroke Nnamani did that to his then political godfather Jim Nwobodo.

Wike should let Fubara be!

pocohantas:
They are beautiful and their attempt at learning the language is impressive.

Are you sure this comment is from your heart

Or you're trying hard to suppress the jealousy? Lol

Wike should leave Fubara alone to do his work as the executive governor of Rivers State.

He should have learnt from previous cases that controlling a sitting governor is not an easy task. Many who tried it in the past failed woefully.

Once you've helped someone to power, allow him wield it in peace. That is why you should be careful in choosing whom to trust with political powers. Give it to a demon and you've ruined everyone including yourself!

Op, with this post, expect the price of okra to increase tomorrow... The sellers would now cite herdsmen attack, exchange rate and fuel subsidy as reasons for the increase in price

Southeast needs to do more in healthcare! They need to tackle quackery in the region and also close down open drug markets which encourages quackery and endanger People's lives via fake drugs.

Our leaders need to understand the fact that you cannot have a sound healthcare system in an atmosphere of unregulated drug market!

Northerners too like military work, to the extent that they use quota system and corruption to block other regions from getting into the military.

I don't want to see any of you post #FreeIran when Israel begins to retaliate o

The Israel I know would crush Iran!

Maj196:
The big boss (Iran) have joined the game. Let's go there.

Israel must burn!!!

I have saved this comment to serve as reminder when y'all terrorist supporters would start crying and typing #FreeIran

That was how y'all jubilated when Hamas first attacked on October 7 only to start crying foul later.

Iran is about to get destroyed by the almighty IDF and I am fully in support.

Far cheaper than here in Enugu. A plate of food here is 1k and it'll not even be up to that size I'm seeing there.

EreluRoz:
Luminouz Dy are calling you here, come and learn and stop complaining about not being able to satisfy a woman.

It is actually ladies who don't know how to satisfy their men that the topic is focused on.

Amaggedon:
Na you know where you from.

I'm Igbo but I don't derive joy from the self deception that all is well in my tribe when in reality, things are going bad.

Amaggedon:
The notherners know to well not to touch any igbo man because there will be x10 retaliation on their people as we have warn them. even when their brother was the president,Their madness was curtailed . Even you know this and we are just looking for avenue .we dont go looking for trouble but when it comes hmmm.

Stop beating chest! I hate it when fellow Igbo youths just brag online whilst in reality we do nothing when these people attack. The last attack they carried out in Uzouwani in Enugu state, what did y'all do Many igbo farmers have been killed in that community and others while our youths only brag online. Even the so called unknown gunmen that is purportedly fighting for the Igbos don't do jack about all the attacks by herdsmen! Theirs is to terrorize and extort money from fellow Igbos!

Sapasenator:
What significance?

Well, in my Igbo culture, name is very significant and just like we try to preserve our gene pool, we also ensure to preserve family names. Preserving names helps to pass down family values and good virtues from generation to generation

Quick question:

How old are you?

Because, you see, I'm old. By every metric globally, I cannot be called anything other than middle-aged. If you met me in real life, you wouldn't call me "you ladies", you'd address me as "ma".

So when I say "there will be loneliness in the future should you tread down this path and no amount of finding ways to make yourself happy will fill that void"...

...I am speaking of my classmates, friends and much older immediate male relatives whom have all expressed these thoughts and emotions to me.

Even women get lonely in old age, but because we are social creatures, we find one church to join, one cultural meeting to spear-head, one omugwo to do forever. So we're fine.

Men aren't socialised like that. And they never learn it until it's too late to change. Literally, I watched those men sit in their houses and attend burials and regret inwardly and then try and fix issues that should have been fixed 20, 30, 40, 50 years ago.

Some did. Others didn't.

It's why I always say "take the podcast mics from the current crop of guys handling them and hand it over to men in their 70s, if you want a cold splash of water to your face".

But, if you feel that you can see the future clearer than someone already in that era, sure.

People like to learn the hard way. That's why we still have addicts till tomorrow.

Oh, sorry ma if you felt offended by my initial "the you ladies" comment.

I wouldn't doubt you if you say that you have men around you who complain of loneliness in their old age but I can assure you that they're in the minority. The world is generally cold to men leaving us with no choice than to battle it out alone right from childhood to old age. By the time we're old, most of us have gotten used to sorting out things by ourselves and not being needy.

In a nutshell, most men would not complain to anyone that they're lonely at old age, instead they find ways to make themselves happy. It is not about women being more social like you said but it's about the fact that most men get abandoned by even the ones they worked hard to cater for when they were still working.

Sapasenator:
It has always been like that in Ethiopia. No big deal for me as names have no real significance.

. Names have real significance. Great people are remembered not only for their works but also by their names.eg Albert Einstein, Michael Faraday etc

Onegai:
Strong agree. Money amplifies whatever you have in your heart already.

A man I know, married a lady who came from money (even his trad clothes were bought by her family). His family, his wife and his in-laws supported him for years. But this man was telling his friends and his mother how useless and unsupportive his wife was.

He eventually got a great job. The arrogance and ego that had been hidden somewhat came roaring out and suddenly, his wife was an "evil wit.ch" and that man ended his marriage. He's living it up now with women whom are "his class and level".

Nothing he did was shocking, if anyone had paid attention to his true character. Because you see, lack of money just made him "humble". Every petty slight and grudge (real and implied) he ever held over the years, he poured it on his wife venomously. Even his kids were not spared.

He's the king of the 💩 hill. For now.

There are several stories like this. I've seen the end of 4 such stories: all men in their 60s/70s, extremely lonely. P

Who knew that treating your wife and kids badly for women who love your money would be such a bad idea /s

My friend came from money, but didn't have any when he relocated. Now, he's wealthy but money hasn't changed him, he enjoys the good life but feels no need to destroy his wife's life and is even helping others where he can. Money didn't suddenly have him realising he could date a 27 yr old, in his 40s.

When I got some money, I bought nice things but I didn't suddenly realise I was better than my friends or family, I certainly wouldn't have felt the need to upgrade the man that stood by me when I was jumping bus.

My cousin and her husband became right-hand people to a Governor and his wife. All of a sudden, "what's up, how are you, greet your mum" became a message that she would reply 2 weeks later. Now the Govenor has left office (and didn't enter Senate House), she's suddenly following me on IG and liking my pictures. Foolish me forgot what she did and returned the gesture. Allow me to be petty and unfollow and block her arse

Far too many of your Politicians act like this. And they always die lonely and forgotten because money went to their heads and brought out their worst characters.

But regard Peter Gregory Obi and Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour

Money only brings out the best or worst of you, it won't change you.

If you were selfish before, you're about to become self-centered and egotistical.

If you were empathetic, you'll be generous.

You're right but let me just point out to you that most men don't feel lonely at old age like some of you ladies say.

Men generally get little or no care from anyone all our lives, so we grow used to sorting ourselves out. We make ourselves happy in our own ways and by the time we are old we would have gotten used being on our own. I don't know why some of you like threatening men with loneliness at old age as if we all don't know how men live their lives.

I blame the guy and other Nigerian men who think that putting women on pedestals is a gesture for which women would agree to be with them.

Women have proven over the years that no matter what you do for them, their selfish interests comes first. Men too should learn how to put themselves first and stop giving our women the entitlement mentality they currently have.

EreluRoz:
Biggest distractor of modern Nigeria's politics

You see this Obi ehn, as long as he continues with this nonsense presidential ambition of his and his followers keep thinking with their anus then Tinubu will easily be reelected come 2027 with ease.

I said what I said with my full chest, you all can continue barking. Ina ruwa na

You're soft in the head, you know??

Kudos to our dear courageous and indefatigable Peter Obi. A great Nigeria is indeed POssible!

This advice applies to both gender. Me as a guy, once you fail to pick my call 2 or 3 times and you didn't call back or flash to show that you didn't deliberately ignore my calls, then I'll delete and block your number.

God bless Israel for helping the world get rid of terrorists.

Say no to terrorists!

Shokoloko:
I am in agreement with him being recognized but why is Fred not asking his son-in-law man to man to be recognized? Should he not call the man and demand the bride price?
Why is he scared of talking to everyone except his ex-wife- someone he is no longer married to?

Someone he's no longer married to but has 2kids with and also left a business for? Or is the ex wife so ungrateful that she didn't deem it fit to ensure that her ex husband is invited to play his fatherly role during the wedding?.

And the 21st century feminization of the male gender continues!

Very soon, the appellation "Man of the house" would be a matter of choice between the male and female couple in a marriage. That time, the one who calls the shuts in the union would no longer be determined by sex organs.
It's already happening sef.

cococandy:
I’m assuming the business was already registered under both of them and for her to change anything about ownership, she needs his signature. Doing it behind his box must have been illegal because she would’ve had to forge his signature and what not.

That’s definitely something lawsuit worthy.
Why didn’t he sue?

To give peace a chance of course, and for the well-being of his kids.

He's not even fighting to have the business back but only wants to be given some recognition as the father of their children, which is not too much to ask for.

cococandy:
Can you tell us what happened actually? I mean with the business. They started it together and then got divorced.

He signed over his shared of the company and removed his name from the company deed or what? What exactly happened?

I’m asking because you seem to know the details

From the story, during family settlement post divorce, it was agreed that the wife run the business and use the proceeds to cater for their kids. But along the way, she colonized the business by registering it under a different company owned by her.

We4all:
Fred should stop crying. If you were in your daughter's life, there is no way in hell she would have sidelined you. You started 'Inside out with Agatha', and so what? Agatha nurtured and made the talk show popular. You moved on years ago, she is still moving on, so why are you pained?

I guess you're a female, the selfish gender!

The program was his brainchild! He conceived the idea and as a loving husband, only got his ex wife in as host. The program is his intellectual property! But when it began yielding money, the ex wife struck with a divorce to get rid of him and own everything with the usual decoy of using the proceeds to take care of their children.

He accepted the above in the interest of his kids! Same kids you now accuse him of not caring for!

The truth about Nigerian men and marriage is that we have given our women too much entitlement mentality, that even women from other countries now envy our women. Nigerian men make themselves willing slaves to women (with a false sense of authority) and that is why our women feel so entitled and readily get away with a lot of rubbish they met out to their men. It's too bad!
