Poster,

I think you should be very careful with your wife. Mothers wield strong influence over their daughters. It appears that your mother-in-law was not happy that you did not allow her sweep the matter under the carpet. It is also apparent her values are not so different from her daughter, otherwise she would have been transparent in her attempt to resolve the matter. Again note, once you offend a mother-in-law who sides with her daughter, be sure that she would forever instigate the daughter against you.
Please stay away from the mother-in-law and watch your back in all matters involving your wife.

Thank you

CHM11:
Your paragraphs totally contradict each other. One moment you are tribalistic, the other moment you are saying we are all human beings. I am not yoruba, I'm from Delta and based in Lagos. You want to know what pained the Oba?

Igbos said they will one day produce the governor of Lagos, they even wanted to run for vice in 2015.
They called Lagos a 'no man's land' that yorubas are claiming it.
They said Lagos is nothing but a colonial settlement.

Sincerely in your God mind, answer this : Will the people in South east Nigeria take this in their state from any other tribe? Even anambra self won't take it from other igbos.

And who told you the igbos are the most hardworking? What does hardworking mean to you?
Don't you think it means something else to me?
You might prefer to carry stones and break rocks with a sledge and call it hard work while I prefer to sit down for hours doing research and creating a cure for Ebola, that could be hardwork to me.

Lagos belongs to the Yorubas first before another Nigerian. If foreigners from Cotonou and Togo come to attack people in Lagos, the Yorubas will get up first to defend their home. When they can't subdue the intruders then Nigerians will join to help them.

Igbos should just learn to be careful with their utterances as regards Lagos. What you will not allow in your own home, do not do it in another persons home.

Lagos became the capital of Nigeria, because it is Lagos, Yoruba Land and it has been a trade centre even before the british took over. I think calabar used to be a capital too, so why is calabar not like Lagos?...

Respect your host and do not cause problems with your utterances.

I advise you to make effort to grow out of this type of sentimental thinking. You wouldn't keep a bad driver for either yourself or your children just because he is your brother or church man. Would you?

How do we avoid the impending dangers to Nigeria’s economy and existence under a Buhari presidency? We must need to face reality as there is no magic in governance. Extremely hard times lies ahead for this country if Buhari ever emerges victorious.

How do you explain to a Niger Deltan that despite GEJ's achievements in almost all sectors, roads, bridges, railways, agriculture, automobile, alamajiri schools, new universities, fertilizer and ghost worker scam elimination, freedom of press, FOI, free and fair elections, power sector. .........etc, he is still booted out.

What will stop the creeks from going haywire again? Buhari will send the troops to the creeks and together they will set the oil facilities ablaze.
OBJ's use of JTF force could not help as no Oil producing company will risk producing crude and killing staff in a volatile region. GEJ under Yaradua had to get down to the creeks to to talk to these boys and effect the amnesty program because they found him as a representation in government.

It will be impossible to convince a ND minority albeit a militant that their own was not persecuted out of office. And that will be the theme of their new struggle. The long term solution to this mess is implementing the Confab report and enthroning true federalism.

A lot of opportunities are springing up around Africa and the IOCs are already geared towards investing in these newer and saner climes than invest in an unstable Niger delta . And while these troubles persists, the oil producing companies will simply withdraw their personnel from the volatile region and all foreign investments will seize in all sectors.

Unfortunately, even if the Nigerian troops kill 90% of the militants, it will take just one militant, a dynamite and just one strategic location along the multi- kilometer trunk lines to continue to wreck havoc to the Nigerian economy.

Fast forward to 2019, if we remain one country and without a civil war,, we will be an economic wreck with no allocations and salaries, no capital projects, no hope with dollar exchanging for 400 naira and we are worse off than we were in 2015.

Cos the truth is that without crude proceeds for now, Nigeria is finished.

And then, we'll be screaming another 'Change' because we would have learnt a bitter lesson in the hands of the Fulanis, Tinubu and Saraki.And then we will ask.... Why were we this silly?

And before you quote me, make sure you outline in clear terms how you or Buhari will avert this obvious calamity staring us in the face
Only last week, they creek boys seem to have resumed activities by kidnapping at Yoho facility operated by Exxonmobil and have shut in 80KBD already. Are we ready for this for the next 4 years?

The entire world stands to benefit from a crisis in the Niger delta. Its not a coincidence that USA who abandoned us at the height of bokoharam is busy shouting for change in govt . Crises in the ND will reduce supply of crude to the Oil market and that would drive up the price of crude for producing countries.... But at Nigeria's expense.

Is Buhari is any way a better Democratic president than GEJ? Is this risk worth it?

Nigerians.... Be Warned!!!

STOP THIS THREAT.

If you believe this cock and boo, you can believe anything. Honestly.

The source of this report is not credible. The report did not state what party was thumb printed on the ballot papers either. How come the PDP e-warriors quickly attacked another party for the supposedly thumb printed ballot papers.
The way Nigerians are going about this election matter, they will have themselves to blame in future because only a bad choice can be made from a poor thinking.

jnrbayano:
A very humane man

I am sure you would not have called GEJ humane if your father or brother or brother-in -law were to be one of the soldiers who died cos they were not properly armed for d confrontation wt BH. Would you? We all will take rational decisions if we bring d events happening in this country closer home.

Nigeria has never had a good president talkless of best president.

I got what the peoples general mean clearly. I will not put it into words here cos Yoruba says "oro ti ologbon ba so, enu asiwere ni a ti gbo o". GMB has finished GEJ though.

Sir Festus Odumegwu should expect serious tongue lashing from the ethnic bigots predominantly from SE supporting this failed Presidency. I pity him cos the likes of Madam Obi Ezekwesili have witnessed it. GEJ supporters don't like the truth especially from their own.

It was gathered that an appraisal carried out by security agents and placed at the disposal of the ruling party clearly indicated that PDP would lose election in the affected states because of the activities of the governors.

The security agencies were busy running errands for PDP at the expense of gathering intelligence to secure us. Little wonder BK boys are having a swell time.
So GEJ truly thinks he can remove the umpire without consequences? These desperations will lead to somewhere.

Also noticed this and feel so ashamed for Nigeria. Bros Jona don finish this country with corruption.

nduchucks:
However, the group could soon face an unprecedented test on the battlefield
against more capable forces from Cameroon, Chad and Niger, they added.

GEJ, see ya life?

The President is preparing the ground for outright suspension of elections for a long time on the basis Nigeria is in a state of war. The tenure elongation he is unlikely to get from the ballot box will be gotten from the NE insurgency. The miseries of the North Eastern Nigeria dwellers will again become political collateral for Mr. President. What a coup against democrazy.

hedonistic:
If the nomads up north and their South Western underlings are using this artificial 'insecurity' created by them to blackmail and bully Jonathan out of office, then one definitely understands the position of the Niger Delta militant commanders.

This whole or. g.y of terrorism and violence in the North has been systematically used to discredit Jonathan's government. In many ways, the election wouldn't be a fair contest if many voters who ordinarily should be swayed by Jonathan achievements in diverse sectors are manipulated to vote for Buhari in the name of insecurity and Boko Haram. That will be difficult to accept.

If that's the case, then the militants would also need to reciprocate the 'gesture' ten-fold in the unlikely event that the North succeeds in installing their jihadist son as president. I guess that's the issue here.

Thank you for insulting the south westerners who were the very people who spearheaded the emergence of GEJ as President after Yar Adua's death. The South westerners have many reasons for adjudging GEJ incompetent other than the terrorism in the NE. The failure to provide promised power, security ( you probably have not heard of rampant kidnapping in the South including the West), massive corruption i.e Odua gate, Diezani wastes on private flights, Oil subsidy that grew from N280B to N2.7Trillion under GEJ in just one year, missing N10.8B under NNPC, numerous inflated contracts, Abba Moro slaughter,etc, and many more show of cluelesssness by GEJ. For your information, the Yoruba have outgrown ethnic and religious sentiments in politics. We demand performance. Check the voting pattern in the SW states since 1999. We have voted out non performing governors in many states and this has put our governors on their toes. If demanding performance from GEJ has now made us underlings, we are happy to be so called but GEJ must go.

Interesting development...I'm so excited for this election, can't wait for APC to retaliate and then PDP and then APC and then....


#The Observer

Are you for real? Do you reside in Nigeria? Do you have families in Nigeria? I just have to be civil otherwise.....hmmmmmmmmmm

''It should not be allowed by anybody. I don’t really know what to do because this election, hmm hmm hmm, I am afraid. Imagine their utterances! Look at what Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) said about Shariah in 2011, that is what they are harping on now in 2015. Why? When did you hear about Shariah last? This kind of thing is annoying. Look at the recent campaign launch that produced over N21 billion. Where did they get the money from when people are hungry? No water. No electricity. No roads. I just wonder what kind of government we have in this country. These are all corrupt persons and they will want me to cast their vote for them''.

Even though His emminence Archibishop Anthony Olubunmi Okogie tried to be neutral, he still gave a knock to GEJ government. Those who have ears, let them hear.

Islam is an unpredictable religion..

Not at all. Islam is perfectly predictable and clear. It really depends on how you choose to practice it. I believe it is same for other faiths

You must be inexperienced in ways of life and possibly young of age. Life teaches us all better as we grow. I believe you will look back and realise you were wrong.

Good luck

Poster,

If you have done something very bad to the man, I can understand he wants to hurt you and gets out of the relationship. But if not, the below is my candid opinion.
That a man has no job and is financially handicapped is enough reason to make a man sit up. A responsible man in the circumstances you described will have no time for women. If the situation you described does not make a man to be serious, then he cannot be serious even if he starts to do well. You got a serious issue that you need responsible adults to help you take up with your husband.

The Gov has balls. Good law.

gunuvi: Go GEJ, you are still our president and will be till 2019. Your humility surpassed all previous presidents.
Forget about all distractions. When Patience was sick the opposition were everywhere condemning her but when Tinubu went for medical operation since July they all went silent. Hypocrisy at its peak!!!
Nigeria will be great.

when will some understand simple things like this. When HRH Patience Jonathan went for treatment abroad, the Presidency did not disclose the reason for her absence was for medical treatment. Madam of Aso Rock even denied being sick. Tinubu announced he was sick and going for medical treatment. Tinubu had by that act of openness prevented rumours about his intent and health condition. People don't just criticise the Presidency without valid reasons most times. The Presidency have given people too many reasons to criticise it.
