Image123: You keep asking this dull question. LP sued INEC, Tinubu and APC. Meaning that the three bodies or persons have legal counsel defending them against LP's suit. You should visit court sometime to know how legal proceedings work, or at least watch film.
Yeah. We understand your idea of how legal proceedings work . They simply work to undermine justice and democratic values. Looks like over 50% of the world's fools are APC trolls on nairaland.
pandoragirigory: Why quiz the IT specialist as if going to court was part of their job specification, well God bless President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Jagaban the Eze-Chukwu of Igbo land, no man born out of woman can unseat Asiwaju
Your mates dey talk go front, you dey talk go back left. When last did you look yourself in the mirror without seeing an idiot?
Acekidc4: That Governor Furaba or whatever his fura name is, is a Stupid Fool. How can you say a very sensitive thing like that Do you want to cause division in your state Mumu Man, can't you all emulate Yoruba People. Have you seen any Yoruba State claiming Christian or Muslim Status Why is a Leader like you being Insensitive Like this

VIDEO: How we used religion to give Tinubu victory – El-Rufai
The former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has said that he and some northern governors used religion as a political tool to give victory to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu in the 2023 presidential election.
don't have to be in Nigeria to see what mess she's in. Wherever you are in the world just head on to nairaland.com to read news and comments, you'll see how sick the country is. See El Rufai boldly indicating that the controversial outcome of February 25 was predesigned. That's why INEC overrode every protocol to produce Tinubu. El Rufai is above the Nigerian law, so no one will sue him for being an accomplice to the most flawed election in African history. No one will. Someone said this before now, that the emergence of Tinubu as president will further destroy what's left of Nigeria's democracy and her institutions. That some people will become so strong that the law will become so weak, inso much that they'll become the law themselves.
Look this is not being religiously biased, this is being factual and real. If you wanna call a spade a spade, you'll agree that the terrorists in the jungles and the powers that be are in the same circle. Though using different ways, they seem to be pushing for the same thing.
You see that Shariah in the northern, its about to sweep down south. They re using Tinubu. They could be using Asari Dokubo or someone else next.
I know a good number of you would say that can never happen. I just laugh. You said same thing with Mu-Mu ticket, but here we have it.
Feeding our stomachs to sabotage the future. If you like dey pray make this government favor you. When time reach you go see money you no fit spend am.
Inviting guest artistes to a believers’ program is not a thing for serious minded believers. Thank God for peoples like Nathaniel Bassey.
When I began playing the keyboard for my assembly, I wasn’t paid. I later embraced an offer elsewhere to get paid and I yielded. I never found the heart to tell the Lord I was offering a “reasonable service”, each time I needed to request for higher dimensions of His grace in my Christian life. I dumped the paying church and went to a church who couldn’t pay and then God began to pay me with those Dimensions of grace I sought for for years. My service had more weight and commanded significant results than when I was paid. Note, there’s a difference between being appreciated with good sums, from being paid as a salary. For the former, you don’t have a say on whatever is given to you. Sometimes it may not even come. While on the latter you decide what is being given, and may seize to render the service if payment problems arise. I am not condemning those who get paid. No. I am simply saying if you find a song minister or instrumentalist who cares about his spiritual wellbeing and relationship with God, you’ll find out that he doesn’t attach much significance to monetary benefits in exchange for service in the House of God. God pays you when men can’t.
lhordspy: In as much as Amer!can citizens are one of the most educated, learned and advance people. I think they are the most uninformed people on planet earth. Their warmongering government keeps lying to them; keeping them in the dark about the truth behind their foreign war expedition and political meddling. They have been using media propaganda to suppress the people's thinking and reasoning ability for long.
It is refreshing to see the lawmakers are starting to see it the way it should be. The good American citizens are starting to wake up and see their government for who they really are. US is about to raise its debt ceiling, yet keep pumping more billion of dollars into unending war. As of 2023, the total national debt and the debt ceiling both stood at $31.4 trillion. The U.S. government has run a deficit averaging nearly $1 trillion every year since 2001, meaning it spends that much more money than it receives in taxes and other revenue. Yet keep sponsoring different war in different countries, at the detriment of the good people of Amer!ca.
The world are still waiting for the weapon of mass destruction they found in Libya and Iraq. Or is that not the reason they invaded the two countries?
Whenever someone speaks the truth about your situations here on nairaland, una go block am, ban am. Look at how you foolishly loiter the whole space with toxicity. Seun's choice of mods makes me wonder how civilized he is. Tribal bias and nepotism no allow una reason straight. You can come and ban me again o. Nansense and bulaba.
This isn’t the fvckin Nigeria we keep praying for. Nigeria isnt Lagos with all the Iya oloja bulshiit. You guys better loot the system as fast as you can, cos either by Constitution or chaos, y’ all definitely be kicked off that presidential space.
Successonpoint: I hope my story will motivate someone to take charge of their life. I lost my job last year July, and so a friend of mine introduce me to a poultry farm where I am earning 22k per month.
A man with wife and two kids o, my wife was not happy with the job even though she has been supportive in her own little way. And then, she suggested that I should learn handwork, and so I decided to learn welder.
On getting to the man, he told me I will spend 2 years o, I will pay 70k to learn from him. Me way I no get even 20k, I begged him to collect 50k and he agreed.
Then he asked me to make part payment of 30k. I went home and told my wife, and then she gave me 20k to give to the man. I gave the man 20k and he collected it, to my greatest surprise within 2 months I started doing the welding job perfectly.
On my own, I have paid up the remaining 30k with small small repairs job he allowed me to be doing for people. And by God's grace, I have started saving up for my tools.
I really thank my wife for the advice and the welder too. The man has been a tremendous blessing to me in many way. He even told me yesterday that with the look of things I may be free from him in 2 months time except I decided to still remain with him for a while.
Please take charge of your life and stop depending on people for survival.
I’ve taken note of your moniker. We’ll discus from time to time. You are an inspiration and your wife is a blessing. More grease to your elbows.

This lifestyle ain’t for you. I was running on a $3k/ month when my woman had our second issue, yet we had no car to our name. You just gotta be yourself man. Scale down and diversify. That source ain’t permanent. Use your head while it lasts. Aim at getting your own land and developing it gradually. Stop living someone else’s life. Just scale down and be real with yourself. Shalom.
Offpoint1: TinibU is the luckiest president Nigeria ever had because he's the only president whereby the only thing 70% of Nigerians expect from him is FAILURE
Nigerians expected Miracle from Goodluck and Buhari, but this guy is only FAILURE they expect
Correction! Correction !! You can say ‘most’ Nigerians expected a miracle from Buhari, not the other way. A few of us already knew Buhari was and would be a disaster. It’s just that most Nigerians are overwhelmingly myopic. They embrace whatever appeals to their sentiments, pockets and stomachs. While a good number of mature men were referring to Buhari as a disciplinarian, I took a closer look at him, went through old Newswatch Magazines and National dailies I got to find at a relative’s, that dated back to the eighties. Despite the fact that I wasn’t born at the time, through Buhari’s military rule, I could deduce, from gathered facts and the interview he had on Channels TV, coupled with the reckless remarks he’s made that showed his inclination towards Islamic politicization… That Buhari was an Islamic fanatic, devoted to Islamic principles rather than a disciplinarian. He would uphold Islamic values over constitutional obligations, and sit above the law. I saw a person who never had regard for the Constitution. I told some old men this, and they called me a dreamer Joseph. Today it’s seen. About 2 of those men have shut their, ‘once upon a time’ flourishing businesses and relocated to nearby African countries. The rest are back in their villages. No matter how stupid Trump seemed to be, Joe Biden didn’t reverse some vital changes he made. He’s instead building on them. No matter how stupid these guys are, they don’t play politics detrimental to their collective progress. But here we are, too individually ‘smart’ that we appear collectively stupid. Each man for his pocket and belly. We don’t know when to let go tribal bias and think clearly. Anyone who tells me he expected a miracle from Buhari.., well I may forgive him if he never experienced his military rule, but he’ll be a dead ass fool if he did as a youth or an adult. A strong democracy is made of powerful Institutions and a transparent leadership. Buhari weakened the institutions. Flouting court orders upandan and using DSS a for witch hunt. Tinubu, now has turned INEC into a political party, and the Judiciary.., well God help us. My wife said the other day, whoever comes up as president isn’t her business, but that the administration must favor her family. I got pissed off by that. I told her that’s the spirit of stomach infrastructure speaking through her and she laughed it off as a joke, while I was damn serious. We Nigerians settle for anything, so long as we have our ‘cut’. The issue is those ‘cuts’ are temporal but the damages are futuristic and near permanent. Ukraine played the Nigerian script when Russia came up to annex Crimea in 2014. But how about now? Why can’t they just stop pushing and let go Donbass without a bloody fight? We Nigerians who don’t know what sacrifices are, but love to identify with the rewards, are calling them fools. The most things we’ve been programmed to fight for is our salaries and farmlands. We can never fight for values. We see it as too abstract to affect our physical pleasure. But the peoples who rule the world today fight for values. Now we have Tinubu, I know most of you guys will get carried away by the time he begin paying petty sums into your accounts and erecting some couple of infrastructures here and there. No problem. I’ll urge you to look at your Institutions and democratic configuration. If the Tribunal doesn’t take out Tinubu, the Nigerian Institutions and Constitution that was weakened under Buhari, will be buried under Tinubu. Some certain people won’t just be ‘above the law’, they’ll become the law themselves. Copy this epistle. So you don’t come back here in the next 3 to 4 years to say Nigerians expected a miracle from Tinubu. Democracy died under Buhari. Under Tinubu, it will be buried.
lhordspy: Lol. The guy name is Festus Osifo . What do you expect from someone bearing that name. Always unnecessarily emotional .
For your primitive mind the guy must be Igbo. Abi?
Lhordspy, whatever your real name is, why have you chosen this path of catastrophic stupidity and insensitivity? You support the war in Ukraine as if your life depends on it. Same you supported Buhari’s bigotry and nepotism. Today you’re in support of a fraud and chaos in the image of Tinubu. Were you born in bitterness and turbulence ? Why do you love hardship and pains, with the fondness of a mother to a child? Even if you’re paid, don’t you think you need help? This darkness you exude can swallow you up one day.
Peasants. Now some idiots will tell me Tinubu is a man that helps people out of poverty. The one his caucus created.
More like he’s the breadwinner of the ‘Nigerian family’, so everyone should run to daddy for bread.ppSomeone even described Buhari as a father to Nigerians. These are the same idiots we live with today.
Some of you are just clueless. You prefer an agama to a monitor lizard, and believe they don't have any vices in common. What's the difference between Tinubu and Buhari? Anyway I'm watching. Una never see anything.
Gajagojo: You need to fix your inferiority complex. White men are just men like you and everyone
You need to overhaul your entire brain to enhance your perceptive ability. I compare us to the whites in aspects that they've yielded better results, but we're still struggling in. You're using an android or iOS device that your country doesn't even dream, in the next 50 years, ...of producing a little of its component like mic or speaker. You're here talking about inferiority complex. Are you proud of stupidity in mediocrity? If you celebrate 30k monthly with data sub, given on a platter of gold as a sycophant, it doesn't mean I'll do same. Nansense.
Moneywirer: Me and my guys just dey watch this live broadcast like say na penalties for world cup finals. We dey edge of seat dey hope say Bishop Feyi prophecy go happen.
Whether BAT or no BAT Nigeria as a geographical location will always favour me and mine!!
Whether BAT or no BAT Nigeria as a geographical location will always favour me and mine!! A white man would never say this. Cos a working system matters much to him than a full pocket and stomach.
aidameoryou: Your suggestions are genuinely needed 🙏
Hi my people good day, I have been having a thorough thought all in my mind and have been boiling inside of me on what next step to take.
Over the years, I have seen my mum really been hostile to my dad and it's getting out of hand for me to bear. I am the first son of some siblings and in my mid 20s. I live apart from my parents in another state and one of my junior sibling who went home for a little break from school was complaining bitterly about how my mum attitude towards my dad is getting out of hand.
My father has to be the most responsible, respectable, reasonable man I ever know, he doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, doesn't womanizer. He has been the sole breadwinner in the family from when we were small up till this time. His work isn't moving very well as it used to back then and as such he cannot cater very well like he's used to and even though at that, he's been trying his best.... My mum just doesn't appreciate him enough and I've seen this a million times.
[color=#000000]My next line of action is to call my mum and give her a serious scolding because she hasn't been warned sternly about this by any of my siblings before. This is getting out of hand and I cannot bear it anymore, please what do you all suggest I could do in this situation[/color]
Try this; Get some money. Buy your mum a nice dress or gift and send it to her. When she receives it, she’ll be glad to say many things to you. In the course of this, tell her you understand how she feels, but you want both of them to be alive in good health to see and carry your kids when the time comes. You can dish out advice to her, not like a direct advice, but telling her how it hurts you. Every time she sees that gift, she’ll remember that conversation. Call your mum. Have a long phone conversation with her. Always appreciate her for being your mother. Send her recharge cards. Just be her talk partner. She may have some burdens she’s only expressing but can’t say. Don’t attack her verbally. Another trick is, if you have good pictures of your dad and mum together, put it up on your social media handle a few days in a month. You can even make it a constant dp. Someone did this and got her mum breaking down into tears, when she was complaining of being fed up with her marriage. Your mum deserve a hug and a peck. Some assurances of love and “it’ll be alright” whispers. A mother was once became bitter with her husband and everyone else in the house. It was later discovered that despite her strong personality as a very physical woman, she was very mad at her husband for not having said “I love you” to her for the past 7 years in their marriage. Life is complex. Lov is all it needs. Cherish and build what you have.
I cant say if this problem is peculiar and I would sincerely appreciate mature comments and suggestions.
My marriage is just about a year old though I had an on/off online friendship with my now-wifey since 2017 before we decided to get serious late 2021. Our physical courtship was kinda brief - about 6 months - while we both resided in the same state but different Cities (about 3hrs apart).
I used to be very sexually active in my previous relationships - trust me when i say I'm quite good in bed - but with my now-wifey, I decided to limit the sex part cos i felt at a man's age (tho my sisters also advised same) that there r other things to look out for in a woman. So basically, we did not get too intimate during courtship. Worryingly, even the few times we did it, I rarely got to orgasm cos she couldn't match my stamina.
Fast forwards to 1 month into the marriage, I was diagnosed with High blood pressure which the doctors advised BP drugs might affect my libido but it will later regulate/normalize. Then the problems started! First, I get aroused normally with good turgidity enough to penetrate my Wifey's tight "body" but I tend to loose erection after some mins of thrusting and that's the end. Never comes back on again. Few times I was able to finish but that's not without alot of mental imagination to make me finish ontime.
Very worryingly for me, I decided to check myself with other women and dear readers, I achieved stronger turgidity and no fail moment. That was my first shock.
Summarily, my wife and I still dont live together but this situation has gone worse now. I got no sexual feelings towards her and na by force we dey manage run 1 round in weeks. Meanwhile, I get sex requests from other girls on a daily. I'm very sad about this situation especially when i look at my wife because she ought to be enjoying this thicke alone forever.
As a man, you can imagine how you'd feel when your woman feels ur impotent while other women are bugging you for your time.
Various extreme thoughts have crossed my mind and I'm seriously bothered which isn't even good for my health. Should i confess to my wife?

I await your responses, suggestions and advice.
Many thanks,
Bro! It wasn't time for you to get married yet. You never ready. You can't be sleeping with one woman today while you're preparing to get married to another in the next 4 months. Just as its advisable for a woman who hasn't healed from a previous relationship to avoid marriage first, its advisable for a man preparing for marriage to break the hunting habit way ahead before marriage. Your pastor may not tell you this, (if at all you dey go Church). I don't see anything wrong with your wife. I see everything wrong with you. Its a psychological addiction that feels like a medical problem. Stay away from sex for 2 weeks. You must learn to be in control. The most thing about being a man is not just money and dick, but control over self. I don't understand why you guys don't live together.., but I'll suggest you starve yourself of sex for 2 weeks and end the fast with a good dose from your wife. Stay off other women. Evil fruits taste better, but end bitter. You need a reorientation on your relationship and sexual values. I think its a terrible one you have there. See a marriage councillor. And please disconnect from friends, married or unmarried, who are still habitually involved in sexcapades with divers women. God help you.
Lukuluku69: Deuteronomy 21:15-17 (KJV) If a man have two wives, one beloved, and another hated, and they have born him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the firstborn son be hers that was hated: Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved firstborn before the son of the hated, which is indeed the firstborn: But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.
Gen 2:24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
Matt 19:8-9 He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.”
1Tim 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach;
Matt 19:5&6 ...and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
If you’re not a Christian this discussion is absolutely useless. If you are, see the words of Christ in Matt 19. He is the fulfillment of the law.
