Compensate?
Then I'll be the governor of Anambra or Abia State first, before that can happen in my indigenous state too.

Kushites:
Who said Kenya hates us? OP posted that Kenyans love Nigerians. Read well.

I guess you didn't understand my comment though… I guess I sounded quite ironical.
How do I lay it easier…? 🤔

OK… let me say, "How can Kenyans hate Nigerians? It's only some of their men that does that… not their women."

Is the above clearer?

Kenyans hating Nigerians? It's only some of their men that does that… not their women.

Nigeria was never meant to be one nation if you consider our differences and views about life, but out of greed for free crude oil money and wickedness, some people have refused to accept the truth that Nigeria's diversity is a weakness and never a strength like we always pretend.


If we must advance beyond where we are, we must peacefully agree to end this forced marriage called Nigeria since we cannot allow equity, justice and fairness to be our national policy

I agree with you on this…

I had the same dream day before yesterday… if it should happen… Nigeria may not survive it as a country…

Is Reno now an IPOB too?
Because this country is Just going down the slope.

Well, now I'll like to see who will cry genocide again after the Ceasefire Agreement had been breached.

Waste of money…

MaxInDHouse:
This is totally unchristian and it's a subtle way the Antichrist is using to attack Christianity!

Imagine an Atheist, Agnostic, Buddhist, Traditionalist, Judaist, Hindu, Muslim or Freethinker who have never been to a place where you people are singing and dancing in the name of Jesus then someone just walk up to him and say:



How do you think such a person will feel when next he or she meets someone who claims to be a Christian?

Surely he or she will feel they are set of brainwashed people because his first experience with someone who mentioned the name "Jesus" is not something nice to write home about!😟

How did Jesus establish this work we are doing today?

Jesus called his friends who knew him from childhood and told them "be my follower" {Matthew 9:9} these people accepted instantly because they grew up together in the same neighborhood so they knew Jesus to be different from all other children not that he just wake up one day and started calling random people to follow him.

The next thing he did was to start saying: "repent for the kingdom of God is near" {Matthew 4:17} all his friends were Jews and they knew what their God promised their ancestors about a child who will be born among them to rule the whole earth {Isaiah 9:6} so hearing Jesus say that isn't strange to them but then the question in their hearts is "could Jesus be the promised child or Messiah?" they didn't ask him until they say him performing the greatest miracles in the history of God's people:
*Jesus made food in abundance! John 6:10-13 compare to Psalms 72:16
*Jesus healed the deaf and dumb! Mark 7:31-35 compare to Isaiah 35:6
*Jesus healed the crippled! Matthew 9:2-8 compare to Isaiah 35:6
*Jesus raised the dead! John 11:44-45 compare to Isaiah 25:8

With all these Jesus' friends were fully convinced that he is the Christ! Matthew 16:13-16

But how did he tell them to preach the same message to their neighbors?

Las las the block don expire.
I dey come.
No need to run from me again.
I don't bite.

TONYE001:
The exact question I asked. I think it's a masterplan to hide. What are the chances that he'd be caught in the USA? As he may have calculated, he was more likely to be caught in the Middle East, and least likely in the USA.

Well, thankfully, he was wrong.

A very good miscalculation.
He must have thought he's a pro when he got into the country on a fake visa.

Kobojunkie:
1. Wrong! What OP described is an interference. Look up the meaning of the different words so you do not keep confusing one for the other.

2. Wrong! The reason most people end up getting killed is that they remain in abusive relationships for longer than they reasonably should. Also, family interference has been linked to the escalation of violence in many situations.

What the OP described was intervention to prevent the unforeseen.
Someone they've been having issues with, who they know to be violent, suddenly stabbed their son/brother in the neck and you expect them to sit and watch what will unfold?

What if the stab was deep?
What if the stab cuts through an artery and he died?
Will you be saying these?

I forgot you're Kobojunkie.

FarahAideed:
You dey mind them

He caused chaos and wanted to live in peace… 😂

Kobojunkie:
1. Marriage is between a man and his wife, not his family and his/her family have no right to interfere in their marriage or their divorce. They can come in to help their ward move his/her things from the marital home after a divorce but they have no legal right to come in to throw the other partner out even if the other partner is legally required to do so.

All that gra-gra barbarian sheet Nigerians are used to doing is reason why nothing seems tow ork of make sense. The sooner people begin adopting more civil ways of doing things, the sooner they begin to see common sense begin to reign in their lives and hopefully society.

All these epistle of yours is very very pointless.

Interfering in their marriage is a different thing here. When things go wrong as for the partner becoming abusive and violent, if it's your child or sibling, you'd sit and watch them get killed before you act; all in the name of not wanting to interfere?

That is not interference even… that's intervening.

Your view here is why some people (husband or the wife) end up getting killed/murdered in their marriage by their abusive partner because they want their families to stay away from their marriage when things go south.

Why did he go to the US instead of going to an Arabian country…?

The question is, how true is this news?

That's one reason I hate being beside these heavy duty trucks/flat beds once they're ladened.

Kobojunkie:
Congratulations @OP!1. Why is your family putting their mouth when the decision is yours? Did they have some sort of contract with your wife that they then feel it is their place to interfere in the divorce?

2. Good decision! From your post, it is not clear if you have actually implemented the divorce or if you only recently decided on this.

3. Please, be sure to opt for shared/joint custody of your children(or full custody if you feel your wife is a threat to them), so you can only have a part in the raising of your own children and maybe have them at least 2 weeks out of each month.

Remove your "Point 1".
No sane family will watch the wife of their son murder him in the name of marriage before reacting.

"Points 2 & 3" are good enough and well said without "Point 1".

Finally, Europe is waking up…

Yes. Nigeria is a very poor country. A lot of Nigerians are under the illusion that we're rich and prosperous. The government should pay for my light, electricity, school fees, fuel, etc. They have the money, but they're looting it.

Sorry to burst your bubble. But Nigeria is actually a very poor country, even if we account for the looting and all other nonsense.

To calculate someone's wealth, you use their income and expenses.

I had a look at Nigeria's budget, which is basically how much we spend. And it's so freaking low. Especially if you divide it by our population.

You can check the list of countries by budget expenditure per capita. Nigeria is right next to shithole broke countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh and co. When you think of those countries, do you think of rich countries?

Most Nigerians think that we're rich like Saudi Arabia. But we're not. We're poverty stricken.

I recently discovered just right now that Iraq earned $90 billion from oil in 2024. How much did Nigeria earn? $30 billion. Meanwhile, Iraq has to share $90 billion amongst 50 million people while Nigeria has to share for 200 million.

And I literally saw someone online lamenting about Iraq being a shithole third world country.

By the way, check out the budget for our African peers like Egypt and South Africa. Egypt's budget is 3x higher than ours.

Of course, you could say that we are rich in natural resources bla bla bla. I doubt we are as rich in resources as most Nigerians think. But even if we were, it doesn't mean shit. Potential income is not the same as income. I mean... I could as well say that if you work hard and start a business, you could be a billionaire. But you're not. You're most likely poor. Potential to be rich is not the same as being rich.

Once you understand that Nigeria is actually a poor country, many Nigerians would know where the problem starts from and stop saying asinine shit like government should pay for my light, electricity, fuel, school fees, food, and even my wedding.

What does Israel have, compared to Nigeria?
Leave the population out of this for now.

And point of correction, I've never met a Nigerian who said the government should pay for the amenities you mentioned there. Nigerians have always been self sufficient…

They just kept emerging… when did this country get to this point?

Bahamas95:
You can be decently dressed in classy outfits.


I hate it when young people look like grandmas in the name of religion.





Are these women not beautiful?

Thank you.

I've on intervals clashed with some people who think looking shabby means holiness.

“When he replied me, it was a slap and a severe beating. I began to shout, ‘Cut! This isn’t a movie anymore.’ He laughed and said, ‘In your life, you won’t interfere in people’s fights again.’”

And since then, he mind his own business. 😁😁😁

creolehunt:
And no mention of what "autonomous cars" are.

I hate when we copy texts from foreign blogs and post on nairaland; content that is not relatable by nigerians.

It is a self-driving or robotic car. They're always driverless.

Those who should be getting these pardons are those in prison for reasons and causes they know nothing about, those with little offences but locked up, those unable to pay little fines passed on them by the court through judgment, those with non-life-threatening offences, those falsely accused...not those who will get out, regroup, and start seeking revenge.

Exactly…

iLander:
I lost my job sometime this year and i have been struggling to get another job. Along the line i also lost my GF ( she left), i met this girl, first we became friends and then lovers. She has been very helpful in every way you can think of, but she is also struggling and schooling too.

She asked me this question and i quote "Babe if someone comes along and say he wants to marry me, should i go ahead and accept" I told her yes because right now, i cant give her the life she deserves. she started crying and refuse to speak to me. Did i answer her wrongly?

Don't fall for those tears…
That's all I'll tell you.
She already has someone asking her out and doesn't want you to feel like she doesn't like you enough to keep up with you.

Just move on… she has moved on long ago…
So, don't fall for those tears.

Youtube Night doesn't connect… I don't know if it's just me…

Take it to the nearest efcc office.

I'll advise you do this instead… but go with your lawyer.

PerfectStranger:
Men who dont drink or smoke, how do y'all cope with life challenges and it shenanigans?

We don't need to ruin ourselves to cope with life…
That is like committing suicide to escape pressure.

It made front page… even though I don't think he's lying.
