placeofallure: Family nuances.
Every marriage with its peculiarities. All kinds of abuses physical, emotional, verbal and the rest of them boils down to our inability to properly communicate in the house. Communication isn't just opening and closing your mouth.
There'll always be misgivings committed by either of the partners. Now if your spouse does something bad, address that issue, ONLY that issue, proffer solution if you can. It ends there. Don't bring the history of how his uncle was like that, or reminding her about how all her sisters are divorced ....how he did the same thing last century and blablabla... Women are more guilty here. That is what annoys the man and if he lacks self control, your guess is as good as mine.
Many men in my opinion are immature. You need to nurture them the way you would your 5-year old. If women understand this, there'll be peace.
That's not an excuse to misbehave notwithstanding. If you are not up to it as a man, don't marry. A man should be able to make informed choices that is best for his family. These failings or shortcomings are the things that infuriate a woman. And if she has an unbridled tongue, reeling begins. Plus men have this ego problem. It's not a taboo to see a wife more sensible than the husband. Men, know this and know wisdom. As a man, you could borrow sense if yours is inadequate. It doesn't make you less of a man. You're to complement each other. Marriage is not a competing ground.
God save our marriages. what you said is absolutely rubbish. please as a women if you feel you're wiser, more spiritual, more educated etc. than the person you want to marry, I beg you don't go on with the marriage. that feeling alone is a breeding ground for disrespect to the man you want to marry |

Christianity Etc › Any Nigerian Who Can Change Into A Cat To Get ₦2.5m by Johnlegacy57(op): 11:23am On Mar 21, 2022 |
The hunt for Nigerians who can change into cats
Armed with a sharp knife, a megaphone and dressed all in black, Gbenga Adewoyin could have passed for a medieval witch hunter, a herbal salesman or an urban preacher as he walked around a market in the south-western Nigerian city of Ibadan.
Warning: This article contains details that might be offensive to some readers
Those curious enough to get close in the Gbagi market quickly dispersed when they heard his message. "Anyone that can provide any evidence for the existence of the supernatural, be it juju or voodoo magic, will be offered 2.5m naira ($6,000, £4,650)," he announced repeatedly in Yoruba and English.
The 24-year-old atheist has recently emerged as a rebel publicly contesting the powers of the supernatural in this deeply religious country.
Belief in African traditional religions and its juju components are widespread in Nigeria, with many combining them with either Christianity or Islam, according to a 2010 report by the Pew Research Centre.
Many Nigerians believe that magic charms can allow humans to morph into cats, protect bare skins from sharp blades and make money appear in a clay pot.
These beliefs are not just held by the uneducated, they exist even at the highest level of Nigeria's academia.
Dr Olaleye Kayode, a senior lecturer in African Indigenous Religions at the University of Ibadan, told the BBC that money-making juju rituals - where human body parts mixed with charms makes money spew out of a pot - really work.
The naira notes that supposedly appear "are gotten by spirits from existing banks", he told the BBC.
Jude Akanbi, a lecturer at the Crowther Graduate Theological Seminary in Abẹ́òkúta, is also unequivocal about juju.
"This ability to be able to transform yourself to [a] cat, to disappear and reappear, these things are possible within the dynamics of traditional African religion.
"Although [it] sounds illogical, like old wives' tales, however from what we have seen and heard, these things are possible," he said.
Such beliefs, especially that human body parts and charms can produce money from a clay pot, have led to a recent wave of gruesome murders in the country, with single women often the victims.
"I feel horrible to see young people engage in these ritual killings.
"If money ritual worked, we would have seen a massive inflation in the economy for the decades that we have believed in it," Mr Adewoyin told the BBC.
He was in Ibadan, Oyo state, on the second of three planned in-country tours offering 2.5m naira, crowd-funded via Twitter, to anyone that can publicly demonstrate these juju powers.
"The knife is for anyone that claims their juju makes them blade-proof," he said.
Questioning the existence of supernatural powers is considered taboo in much of Nigerian society.
To be openly expressing such thoughts, as Mr Adewoyin was doing in a market, was risky. He could just as easily be arrested for blasphemy or lynched by an angry mob.
"Of course juju works, he doesn't know what he is saying," said one trader who lingered with a scowl on his face.
In his pocket was a black amulet, a small leather pouch containing supposedly magic charms, that he said was for protection. However, he was not interested in publicly demonstrating its powers, not even for $6,000.
Belief in magic often coexists with Christianity and Islam. Clerics from both monotheistic religions often refer to aspects of traditional African religions as evil - something real, but which can be defeated by prayer and their own higher powers.
Many pastors have become rich and famous on claims of having supernatural powers that can overcome juju and evil curses, something which many imams also practise.
However, no-one has taken up Mr Adewoyin's challenge at two of the venues in Ogun and Ibadan and he is not holding his breath for his next stop in Anambra state in the south-east.
While he has been dismissed by some as an attention seeker, no-one can hide from the grisly images of the bodies found recently with missing limbs and empty eye sockets in a resurgence of the sinister money-making juju rituals.
Mr Adewoyin wants to debate with Nigeria's traditional leaders on their belief in the supernatural This killing of humans to use their body parts for magic purposes gripped Nigeria in the mid-90s and led to riots in the eastern city of Owerri after the kidnap and murder of an 11-year-old boy in 1996.
Now, with social media, hardly a day passes without reports of a missing person and pictures of mutilated corpses linked to juju.
There was widespread outrage last month after three men allegedly killed a 17-year-old girl in Ogun state to use her body parts in a ritual they believed would make them rich. They confessed to the killing after they were arrested by the police and have been charged in court.
The clay pot and red cloths they were caught with could have passed for a scene in a movie from Nollywood, Nigeria's film industry famous for depicting manifestations of juju, but this was real.
And they were young men - the oldest was 21, sparking the Twitter hashtag #At21, where users described what they were doing at that stage in life and bemoaning what they saw as societal pressures on young people to get rich quick.
The outrage over the girl's death made federal lawmakers debate juju in parliament and consider the "declaration of a state of emergency on ritual killings in the country", with its depiction in Nollywood movies mentioned as a factor.
Nigeria's Information Minister Lai Mohammed has also chipped in, blaming Nigerian movies and social media for the spate of killings.
He wants the films censor board to engage film makers "on the need to eschew money ritual content in their movies".
But film makers are not having it - they feel he has unduly picked on Nollywood in what is a national crisis.
"The minister misfired, he cannot breach our fundamental rights to create," actor and producer Kanayo O Kanayo told the BBC.
He said the minister was neglecting what has become a societal issue and the inability of families, traditional and religious leaders, and politicians to ensure the moral upbringing of young people.
While the debate rages about who is to blame for the killings, a much broader conversation is to be had about Nigeria's educational system that fails to persuade people that juju and the supernatural are not real, says Mr Adewoyin.
He is hoping that his rebellious tour can expose those he calls tricksters, claiming the supernatural powers of juju, and help put an end to the spate of ritual killings.
"For a reasonable human being to believe that a human with all his biological components can turn to yam or banana is illogical, and worrisome," he said. Source: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-60749496

Foreign Affairs › Twitter Deletes Russia Statement On Hospital Bombing by Johnlegacy57(op): 8:27pm On Mar 11, 2022 |
Twitter has removed two posts by the Russian
embassy in London which claimed the bombing
of a Ukrainian hospital by Russian forces had
been faked.
The Mariupol hospital was attacked on
Wednesday, leaving three people dead.
But the embassy's tweets made unfounded
claims the hospital was not operational at the
time, and that injured women pictured at the
scene were actors.
Twitter told the BBC the tweets violated rules
"related to the denial of violent events".
Officials at the embassy have offered no proof to
back up their claims, and the BBC's
disinformation team has found evidence which
contradicts the allegations.
The embassy claimed the hospital had been
"long non-operational". However, a week-old
post on the hospital's Facebook page asked for
fuel to keep operations going.
Reports from Mariupol last week - from the
Associated Press news agency and Sky News -
also says it was treating bombing victims, and
that the maternity ward had been moved to the
basement.
The allegation that a beauty blogger was used to
fake photos of a pregnant woman at the scene
was also called into question, as the woman in
question, who lives in the city, is seen heavily
pregnant in Instagram posts dating from last
month.
This tweet was deleted by Twitter for violating
its rules
The initial claims that the bombing was faked by
Ukraine did not come from the embassy. They
first began trending among Russian users of the
Telegram messaging app earlier in the day, and
were then mentioned on state television news
bulletins and chat shows.
A further claim circulating that the beauty
blogger also pretended to be another woman
caught up in the bombing and photographed at
the scene is also untrue. A look at high-
resolution images of the other woman featured
in the claims shows she looks nothing like the
beauty blogger. Those are two different women.
Finally there were accusations that the hospital
had been taken over by a far-right battalion of
the Ukrainian army. As yet there is no evidence
that this was the case.
These claims all continue to circulate online,
despite the tweets being removed.
The pregnant beauty blogger's Instagram
account has also now become a target for online
trolls and conspiracy theorists.
Social media companies have been trying to
tackle misinformation on their platforms, with
many big tech companies blocking Russian
broadcasters RT and Sputnik.
But Twitter has not banned several accounts
linked to Russian government organisations -
including Vladimir Putin's official Twitter
account.
The Russian embassy account also remains
active. |

Let us deal with where and how Sylvester got the life threatening injuries that eventually led to his untimely death! if Sylvester dad makes this comment that you made I will put it to him that he intentionally killed the boy. even if the boy was injured in whatever way or degree the first attempt of a loving father is to save him before raising the issue of bullying. the family and they only is 100% responsible for the death of Sylvester. during my jss 2 days a classmate used razor to cut my left index finger it was so bad that the finger had to be stitched. my father had to make sure that I recovered before he went to the school to make serious trouble. |

when my prof., a consultant pathologist heard this news he told us that the boy died out of negligence. he said that he had encountered so many of this scenario. that parents usually results to blaming once the issue has degenerated. I believe my prof after the encounter I had in one of my postings in A&E. the boy had sepsis of which his elder brother died of because of negligence. it took the advice of a colleague who is an uncle to the boy for the parents to bring him to the hospital. the boy consumed 4 tanks of oxygen within two days of arrival to the hospital. if not intensive medical care that boy would have died. |
