FamilyRe: They Dont Like Their New House by jokepearl(f): 10:36pm On Apr 29, 2016
Amelian:
Op they are not defaulting in any way.. Everything in life is manner of approach.
What the tenant should do is this. Wait till when uv gotten the job and other comfortable flat. Calculate how many months uv stayed in this self cobtain, even if its one month.. Take one month rent, buy a carton of wine and half bag of rice .. Meet with the landlord, first present the gifts first and thank him so much for his kindness , then u and yur husband shud explain to him that your husband has been transfered to another state with the same company and u were given company quaters to stay in.. Exactly like the one u are also living in his compound.. And how you and yur husband wish, they had not transffered him.. If not u, both of u are loving this place already due to the friendly nature of the tenants.
By dear, with this reason, he will accept the one month u will.pay him and he will even pray for both of you sef with joy and gratitude in his heart.
Everything is manner of approach and everybody involved is happy.
Simple.
That is deceitful.

She signed a contract and there are consequences to that. I advice she gets someone else to rent the place, or pay the landlord the rent until he gets a new tenant.

I too got shocked when someone mentioned that Rhema is not all that she appears to be. shuuu. A gal that practically took her time to love a crazy fella like Felix barring his past. my only issue wt d babe is why she got preggy for Felix. I suspect foul play ai swear.....

I feel Rhema is connected to Janet (Jessica's friend) somehow. Remember when Janet said something about her new fine neighbor (I just think there is reason for that statement) I maybe wrong though....

FamilyRe: Do I Need A Registry Marriage After A Church Marriage? Lawyers In The House by jokepearl(f): 6:00pm On Jul 29, 2014
kenny987: @op: Your friend married under Islamic rights has no recourse before any of the courts of superior record(High Court, Court of Appeal, Supreme Court). She can only approach the Sharia Courts and show proof of her marriage under islamic rights. The courts of superior record only entertain petitions regarding marriages conducted under the Marriage Act.

FamilyRe: Do I Need A Registry Marriage After A Church Marriage? Lawyers In The House by jokepearl(f): 4:01pm On Jul 29, 2014
It depends on the church.

I got married in an Anglican Church and my marriage certificate is exactly like the one given in the registry. But I was instructed to go to the registry before the wedding.... And also after the wedding you take the certificate to the registry.

But if you don't have the Nigeria republic marriage certificate, please go to the registry.

Note: Your colleague can still go to court no matter the type of wedding she had.

TravelRe: Ask Me Any Questions About America,straight Talk from a Nigerian in America by jokepearl(f): 8:43pm On Oct 24, 2013
codebrew85: @Nemesis, that's not true. You can actually change your status from tourist visa to student visa there in the US. You don't have to come back to your country to do that. Please see: www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.eb1d4c2a3e5b9ac89243c6a7543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=92f23e4d77d73210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD&vgnextchannel=92f23e4d77d73210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD
You can change your Status to F1, but to get a 'VISA', in order to travel in and out of USA with that status, you have to travel outside the US.

So your status changes, you are legal, but in order to get a VISA which enables you to come back into the US in-case you travel, you have to leave the US to get a VISA. You cannot be issued a VISA inside the US.
FamilyRe: Tips On How To Successfully Hold Engagement And Wedding On The Same Day by jokepearl(f): 5:37pm On Sep 30, 2013
Getting a wedding planner might help, but there are stuffs you can't control. E.g Even if engagement is slated to start at 7am, what if the grooms family doesn't show up until 10am?

Also having all events at the same place or very close to each other will help, because travelling to different venues maybe an be a hassle.

FamilyRe: The 'me And My Husband Alone" Sydromne by jokepearl(f): 4:48pm On Sep 18, 2013
Yield: You are missing the bigger picture, lady. Of course, she can call her son, but calling him everyday is not healthy, like I've said. And it is not normal. She might as well pack her things and come and live in their home since she cannot do without her son. Ironically, your friend's MIL is coming to stay with them for a while too, she just might end up not leaving the house, poor wife. Men, love and respect your mother, always. But once you're married, be a man and have your own life. You have a wife. Communicate with her. When it comes to things pertaining your marriage, don't go running to your mama each time and doing what she says instead, while ignoring your wife's own point of view, like the husband in this case is doing. Mama's boy, pfftt, cut the damn cord already.
I speak to my mum everyday sometimes twice a day. My husband doesn't complain although sometimes he doesn't understand it but never tells me to stop. Is this okay because I am a lady and not ok for a man?

There is nothing wrong with being close to your mum. Being close doesn't automatically mean being in control, the fact that they are close doesn't translate to Mummy being in control (which is totally wrong).

FamilyRe: Your Sincere Opinion To A Sister Please!- Do you think I can get married again? by jokepearl(f): 4:04pm On Jul 05, 2013
baby_123: Ile, so after 35years in the stomach the testicle can still have functioning cells? Enough to produce fluid that is sperm like? The way she described it is kind of like the guy was producing sperm. Maybe because of lack of experience she does not know if sperm is white or clear. Those may have rung alarm bells to someone that was a little experienced on first encounter. But do you think it is possible the doctors can do something? At least a second opinion?
The white liquid is not the sperm, You can't see the spermatozoa, the are very tiny. The white u see the seminal fluid which usually contain the sperm and other stuff.
Semen is produced and originates from the seminal vesicle, which is located in the pelvis.
FamilyRe: Does this Make Children bad? by jokepearl(f): 5:34pm On Jun 21, 2013
deols: actually, I am more interested in this view point.

Is there a way of instilling the 'dont be selfish' attitude even when they have what they want?

something like, what you have is a priviledge. Not everyone has it. You should be thankful for it. You should appreciate your parents for it and you should work hard if you want to continue to have it so good.
We are human beings and naturally selfish. Except a child is molded, or trained, they will grow up to be selfish. I doubt there is a way to instill discipline while letting a child ALWAYS have their way. E.g naturally no child wants to do any house chore, allowing the child to have his/her way means no house chores.........

Also children are human beings and children, most of their wants have no sensible basis, e.g a child is bored in the store may suddenly want a toy which is a replica of one he/she already owns. A teenage girl may want an ugly shoe which she personally doesn't like but wants it because the most popular girls in sch has it. for this scenarios, letting the child has his/her way means letting them have it anyway despite ..........

Also children always test boundaries, if none is set, they will keep pushing until they ask you for the moon. Do you have the moon to give?

FamilyRe: My Nigerian Marriage Certificate by jokepearl(f): 7:49pm On Jan 25, 2013
Elizabeth ope: Hi Nairalanders, I urgently need ur help, am engaged to a lawyer and we are supposed to get married middle of this year but unfortunately, He lost his maternal grand father and his mum's younger sister is also sick right now. He told me the wedding will have to be shifted till next year and I agreed to dat. I suggest we go do a Registry marriage pending the time dat we eventually do d church marriage but he refused saying it isn't legal to do a registry wedding and still do a church wedding as well, and since we intend doing a church wedding in d future, we shouldn't do a registry marriage. Pls I need ur opinion on this .
He is right to some extent. If you guys do a registry wedding, you are MARRIED. Churches like mine won't do another wedding but will do a church blessing with all the ceremony, but without the rings. But most churches don't follow the led down procedure so, it depends on the church.

@davidylan;


are you saying u will just use a software without having any knowledge about it?


English is a language, but its still a subject!!!  you still learn how to use it even in the uni!!
Its been ages since I logged on nairaland, but I can't resist answering Ignorant nairaspace. Pls listen or better still google it. ORACLE is not a course u study in the University at any level. You take courses like database management the school can decide to use any of the numerous softwares available, (In whicle oracle is just an example though its popular). There are training centres that teach Oracle but hope you know u won't be awarded BSc Computer Science, the best you get is Orace certification.

Have u ever heard of a course called Microsoft Word (except u are doing diploma in computer science) being taught in a university? ORACLE is not a course taught in the University.

Christianity EtcRe: Don't Let The Catholic Faith Deter You From The Christian Faith by jokepearl(f): 11:44am On Jun 23, 2009
Hello All,

I have read with interest all the post on the thread. My question maybe offpoint and i know I may be called ignorant but please bear with me.

I thought there was a time in the catholic church where members were not allowed to read or be found with the scriptures and people were burnt if caught. (I read it somewhere a long time ago), and even now reading the bible is not mandated or encouraged.

I also read somewhere that it was King james (i don't think he was catholic) that is responsible for the wild spread of the bible by translating it to english,

N.B
I am scared of the response to come. I better take cover.

Christianity EtcRe: Born Again Polygamist by jokepearl(f): 7:55pm On Dec 18, 2008
KunleOshob:
@analytical
the example of bathsheba you gave is a very poor one. Are you aware that King Solomon is a product of Adultery commited by King David with Bathsheba whose husband David sent to the war front to die when Bathsheba was pregnant huh As i said earlier i am personally against polygamy, but i am yet to see where the bible forbids or condenms it in clear terms. Several great and blessed men of God in the bible were polygamist and God never condenmed, rebuke or punish them for this act. All the excuses you have been giving on the issue of polygamy don't hold any water and they lack substance.
Its not the fault of the child is it? and mind u solomon is not the child of adultery the child died.

KunleOshob:
Please read your own posts again clearly a man commits adultery only when he is involved with a married woman. I know you would find it difficult to take away from your mind of what you have always believed to be true. But it is quite glaring that the term adultery is invoked only when a married woman is involved, if the woman is not married, it is not regarded as adultery even if the man involved is married.
Yes it difficult to believe what is not true. In christ theres neither male or female free or bound we will all be judged with the same measure.

Matt 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart

at a woman not at another mans wife.

Kunle, the truth God is written in our heart (except if it has been seared with hot iron ) no longer on tablets or paper if we search deep enough u will know whats right.
