Oh no. It must be a man disguised as a woman.. Women don't and are incapable of commiting crimes..
It must be the schemes of the patriachy.

Interesting times. Let's see where that takes everyone to. I go just dey observe. Currently, it is South Korea, a wealthy nation. But I want to see how it unfolds in a poorer country.

Are you sure it's not economic situation, rather than relationship dynamics, responsible for the slow birth rate in SK? From what I've seen, both men and women are avoiding children like the plague.

Although, that isn't to say there isn't such a thing as the 4B movement. Even then, those folks are less than the number of homosexuals in the country..

I still remember their evening calls, like it was yesterday... Waidiiiii,, Ya Allah... Great times.

The only men that I know who will buy luxury things and never give you money that can help you grow are Yahoo boys. It is not hard to spot them.

I don't even understand the set of people that do such.

If indeed the story is true, good luck to her being a virtuous woman.

Solo Levelling ....... 5.5/10


If I had to describe this show in a single phrase, it is "power fantasy and nothing else".

The show doesn't hide what it is. It just focuses on a character who goes from being the weakest Hunter to being the strongest Hunter. Nothing else in-between matters.

Character writing is non-existent. You could as well delete all the other characters from the show and almost nothing will change.
Every other character apart from the MC is as basic as they come...
They are just stereotypes with no personality...
Any level of importance they have is only for the MC's benefit...
Thus every other character suffers as a result.

Worldbuilding is also quite disappointing. I'm not a fan of the R P G world elements...but it can be done right for instance F r i e r e n
In this show's case, even the few aspects of the world that could be somewhat interesting is given so little screentime since the entire story must always revolve around the MC.
12 episodes and yet they couldn't even do anything with the political elements introduced within the show...

Story?...there is no story....
monsters of the week
Every episode is the same. MC takes video game type quests and fights in dungeons...survives and gain better abilities....rinse and repeat...

Fights....
This is only somewhat good thing about it...the fight scenes are good...however since they lack any emotional attachment and it's mostly just monsters the MC keeps fighting, there is no impact.
It's just like watching someone kill AI monsters in a video game for hours....
It gets boring really fast...

Just as I compared how it handled it's R P G world to F r i e r e n, I'll also compare how it handles combat to Jujutsu Kaisen.

Jujutsu Kaisen excels because it's story and character writing are conveyed through it's fights. Characters learn through fights, characters grow through fights. The plot moves forward through fights...
That way each fight is actually impactful to the story...

In Solo Levelling it is quite the opposite. It is mostly just fights with random monsters with reward of levelling up.
The few moments of character growth in fighting revolve only around the MC since every other character in the show might as well not be called characters...

Another difference with JJK is that JJK has a well thought out power system.
In Solo Levelling, it's all about the MC levelling up and unlocking random skills to use against the next monsters of the week he fights.

To round up, I didn't expect much story from the show...but I was still disappointed.
The few moments or bits of the world that actually piqued my interest were quickly sidelined in 30 seconds conversations between side characters...all in favour of watching the MC fight the next random monster in the next random dungeon


Truly one of the anime of all time to be quickly forgotten until the next season airs and people watch for fight scenes again

This is what we want to be seeing here..

I completely agree with this... The graphics are good, fight scenes amazing, but story line sucks. It's not immersive at all...

I am wachting RE:Zero right now...

Hmmm... OP OP.... What a wow!!!

Hmmmm.. 😁 😁

Reminds me of one woman who no wan dey rest. The day she gave birth, she was the one going up and down...

Say, she can't sit down like that.. Now that I think of it, maybe she get ADHD. 🤣.

Mumu man sha.. Instead of him to sieze the moment to be ultra-super-duper romantic.... 😁

It depends on who you ask?

Kobojunkie:
Even a kindergartener could answer you this. I keep telling you You have to read the book for yourself, not go around ruminating and regurgitating the tripe you have been fed by others regarding what is written in the book.

oh come on... don't give me that witty cup out. No kindergartener can answer this question. Even scholars who are well-versed in the subject still argue about it today. Or, has the lord revealed something to you that we don't know about?

Prettychild:
You have not read all her comments. I’m done educating you as you can’t have a genuine conversation without insults or throwing gibberish. You are entitled to your opinion, just know that what you think a whole of people say is not what the law says. You can wallow in your subjective opinions

Educating me? buwawawawa....

You see why I say na the badness in you dey make you blind to reasoning? let me do like Erisco, send police to your house to come and pick you up for accusing me of talking gibberish.. Since people can't make "comments."

Prettychild:
What are you even saying? Oh! You thought it is when someone kills someone or steals, that it is the only form of criminal cases? My dear felonies, misdemeanor are all criminal offenses. I don’t think you actually read through all her comments, keep sentiments aside and look at this thing objectively. She didn’t stop at saying it is sugary but went on to say it is killing people! Where is her proof? The problem is her not being charged to court cos the law mandates that she should be charged to court within 48 hours. Learn to leave emotions aside when looking at issues. I was like you supporting all her actions until I read through all her comments. I wish I could post them here but you have already taken sides already

It's you who should learn to follow due protocols and keep that Nigerian vindictive behaviour aside. The whole world has come out to say Erisco has gone over and beyond, but you some of you Nigerians, who don't have identity in the presence of wealthy people continue to say otherwise. I hope you're not also selling products without Nafdac no. cus this type of people una like to dey defend.

Please show me where the word "killing" was used. Plus, you must also prove to us the context in which said word was used. I have read her comments, and the K***ing part followed after Erisco sister made a comment, abi?

This is polygamy

Kobojunkie:
Did YHWH die for 3 days? Where?

Are you saying that YHWH, Jesus, and HS, are all independent entities that co-existed together before creation??

Prettychild:
She wasn’t unlawfully arrested but you can say that she has been unlawfully detained if and only if they haven’t charged her to court. international news outlets don’t care about what happens in your country, its your own business and not theirs. it’s a Nigerian that works there that decided to bring it up

Are you kidding? It was not a criminal case, hence, the police had no business arresting her in the first place. In fact, why the police got involved immediately does more than just paint the CEO of Erisco foods in bad light, but exposes us to the cruelties that he is capable of.

To worsen the issue, the police illegally detained her for months---months. Why? If you do not know your own human right, then you shouldn't impose your ignorance on others. It could be that you're also into the food business, like maureen, who's also siding with Erisco incase it's her turn one day. So that she can bully the unhappy customer and then give testimony in church the next day.

Again, I ask, where was the cyber crime committed? Haven't you, instigated people around you to choose one product over the order, in your whole life? Were you committing any crime, then?

You haven't said, "oh, android better pass iPhone" or "iphone better pass andriod" or "andriod battery no dey last like iPhone" or "chinese products no good" ?

Call yourself a hypocrite and tell me you haven't criticized a product before.

okay, let Erisco food go and sue all the people that dropped 1star review online na.....mtcheeewww...

Mind you, the lady first commented that the product is sugary. Nothing wrong here. perception of taste is subjective, and that point can be argued in court to her defense. Does Erisco add sugar to the product, yes or no?

Mind you tomatoe paste is less tomatoe and more fibre---carbonhydrate, which is sugar. Do and do your home work, madam.

Prettychild:
Which one is unlawfully arrest, she was arrested for criminal defamation and cyber bullying, and not charged for a tortious act. It’s either she is granted administrative bail or granted court bail. Administrative bail is strictly the Police that has powers to do so. They might decide to give difficult conditions so it’s left for the suspect to negotiate his/her way out. Let’s keep emotions aside, she had the chance to retract her statement but she refused cos some people were ‘gingering’ her. The people pushing her have left her to face her music. Her lawyer should just push for her matter to be charged to court so that he/she can secure bail for her

Arrested? why? Has the court proved her guilty? She was unlawfully arrested, my dear. Know your rights! why do you think an International news outlet has picked up the case? What's the cybercrime committed?

Prettychild:
Exactly. A lot of our young people like to form ‘woke’, you need to have facts and not just talk anyhow because you have data. She even replied someone’s comment that of bringing down Erisco company. That’s malicious and not an honest review

So, employ police officers to unlawfully arrest the person? Dama, we talk am. The leaders Nigeria churns out is a direct reflection of you people... haha

Judolisco:
did u see what she wrote... Open a pure water factory first and let someone write dat your water is killing people and see how it feels....

This is a ridiculous take. Every product manufacturer faces these kinds of accusations. There've been claims that Apple device kill people because it can cause cancer, steal data, and so on.

It's left for the manufacturer to dispel the accusations by providing credible evidence that dispels such claims. Or, drag the individual who made the accusations to court where they will be charged to pay the manufacturer hefty compensations for irresponsible claims. Finish!

What Erico did was hire police thugs to pana-beat Chioma even though all they had to do was take her to court. They also had the capacity to sue Chioma, but instead, acted like a drug dealer--- boycotting the rule of law.

This is nothing simple other than the typical rich man bullying a poor man. And anyone who thinks Chioma deserves what she is getting is no different than the scums in politics y'all rant about daily.

Kloenboi:
Sorry for your loss bro!

I was in same situation 2 years ago.

See bro, I don't see any reason why a man will date a girl for more than one year with the intention of getting to know her not to talk of dating a woman for over 3 years.

A month is enough to know a marriageable girl, six months at least.

The truth is that you lost that girl six months into your relationship with her.

Are you saying it was because he waited for too long that she gave up and married someone else?

Kobojunkie:
I am not saying that his story does not make sense, and yes the gal acted dubiously. What I am saying is that given the details provided by OP, I can equally understand why she may have decided at some point to abandon OP entirely. I would not blame her folks at all cause this all seems like something she did for reasons best known to her.

could you share how you came to such conclusions? Because I really cannot see it.

Some people are quite fulfilled not bearing children. Same with people who do.

From an evolutionary perspective, it's self-defeating to acquire all those resources, and mental growth, and not pass those "good" genes down to children and society.

Although, society could benefit from the self-curtailing reproduction rate and the labour such women contribute to the growth of society. So, I guess, it's a win for society and women involved since they get to live a more fulfilling life(objectively and subjectively).

Some people choose not to have kids because they've wrongly imbibed the experiences of other people into their own lives. Even though bad things happen less frequently than good things, they fixate themselves on the bad things. It's like swearing not to take flights because you watch on television that a plane crashed.

The thing is, studies show that women/men who choose not to have children end up caring for "other" people. Many seem to get involved with childcare services or other forms of nurturing, such as supporting other women/men. Plus, they put more resources into such endeavours than even women who have children. Fascinating, isn't it?

The burden of responsibility isn't entirely lifted by not having children. It's the burden of being tied to a certain location with limited independence due to kids or dedication to a spouse, that single women/men seek to avoid. In order words, the freedom to do--when they choose and how they choose. Another win at the individual level.

Kobojunkie:
I didn't get any sense of her being afraid of her family at all. And Op insisted that not only did she abort their baby, but she went back to marry the guy she dated at least six years prior. That seems more like a gal who got tired of dragging, maybe even family drama and decided to take her bets elsewhere. We don't know since this is OP telling his side of the story.

2. There is a stigma against marrying without consent, but none against doing everything married people do anyways outside of marriage. Abegi! I don't take folks who believe such things seriously anyway.

Given all he's said, the OP's story makes sense to me.
1) He had already approached the family for marriage. And they appeared to welcome him.
2) by his actions, he had made it known to her that they were to settle down. All that was left was for the girl to play her part, which she didn't. They dragged out the date to make the whole ordeal formal.
3) The girl is the one who denied the OP access to her parents, knowing that they disapproved of the inter-tribal marriage.
4) If the girl hadn't succumbed to pressure, she'd have kept the baby, which would have forced the parents' hands, just like my mom did in my situation.
5) She hid the fact that her parents weren't okay with the marriage, yet continued to be intimate with him while rekindling old flames with another lover.
6) I understand the lady and her action, but being pretentious to that extent trumps whatever dragging she had to endure from the OP.
7) Unfortunately for the old lover, he was the second choice....ehyaaa....

Without a doubt, the real dubious person here is no other than the girl. What we have here is a girl without the stomach-to-face stigma and a dubious individual who continued to lead the Op on knowing she wasn't going to marry him. She even made him build a baby-bed..

I think OP dodged a bullet because if things go south, she'll blame her woes on all of him. And the marriage would be a living hell.

I think this is like many other cases out there: parents bullying their children to marry their preferred candidate. The lady in question doesn't seem like someone anyone should want to raise a family with. People who are good at pretending are dangerous..

Kobojunkie:
You should see it then from my angle. I don't understand why people even bother to seek consent to marry when they don't do that to date each other, have sex, get pregnant and even have babies. If you are able to pretty much do all of that without consent, then what is the use of consent again? It does not compute.

ah, I think I get your point. But, that can't happen especially if the girl in question is scared of the family. This is quite a difficult feat in our part of the world. The girl becomes isolated and is left almost at the mercy of her husband. So, if things go south, there's no one she can run to. Plus, there's the whole stigma against marrying without the blessings of the parents(like as if people can't get married if the parents are late).

Since the girl didn't inform him of the issue on ground, the OP is absolved of all faults.

PoliteActivist:
Go watch his videos below. They are not that long to watch

Key word "Sense of Self"

PoliteActivist:
Well, scientists have determined there are possibly 100's of dimensions while we perceive only 4. What would you call beings from those dimensions?
Also geniuses, including Einstein, Tesla, Drake, Muhammed, etc saud they were fed thoughts. Where are those thoughts from?

The problem with our science is that
it is like we are trying to answer the question: X+5=?, without knowing AT ALL what X is, whether X is even a number at all or a goat! It is also why our greatest thinkers end up saying we don't know anything - if you don't know what X is, you don't know anything!

Interesting, 100 dimensions? Do scientists claim there are 1100 dimensions, or do they stipulate the possibility of more dimensions? There's a stark difference between both statements. You may be referring to String Theory. But, that's still a stipulation.

Where do thoughts come from? The brain. If you can prove where thoughts existed without one, then you may be onto something.

LordReed:
So you just defined something into existence?

That's why we call it Ka-Boom!

PoliteActivist:
😆 He doesn't know that the person he's talking to, Steep, is a creationist. Second time, you're making a fool of yourself. You're becoming almost like Dr. Reed!
Folks please help us find out, is Sam Harris (below) a religionist? He's saying the sorta things I've been saying!
I don't know how you people reason. How can a religionist even remotely entertain the things I've been saying - that the universe could be anything at all, and could exist entirely in your head, and that the individual self is an illusion? And that our senses could be such that they don't tell us what is really there - that they could be lying to us. What sorta religionist would entertain any of those??
Result of this debate comming up soon.
Here's Sam Harris:

As I said in my previous response, your arguments, or Sam's statement for that matter, only make sense in the context of perception of reality and not that of questioning the existence of reality.

Unless, of course, you have a different understanding of reality.

A little side note:

I think the point you are trying to make is that the nature of reality, as we know it, may not be the real representation of reality. What we perceive of reality is limited to our five senses, which we heavenly rely on to define our surroundings. Correct?

We cannot question the nature of existence if we don't exist, can we?

How the Bleep did a 56-year-old man shove a 4 inches wide nut up his ass? Damn!

Kobojunkie:
He is right to ask the question since Customary Marriage Laws in Nigeria do not recognize paternity fraud at all. How many Nigerians get married under statutory law?

I can't seem to find the rules for such customary laws. For paternity fraud to occur, adultery must first take place. That's enough grounds to throw the woman and kid out.

Judolisco:
Who took d data, why I'm asking is because Nigerians rarely perform DNA test to knw if the child is yours or not....so I think dis stuff is jst on assumption and not on facts... With d presentation on d projector, no reference whatsoever.. When I dey sch my lecturers go Don bounce dis presentation....

Them tell you say na school presentation?

papyjaypaul:
Why do people in same sex relationships always have someone that acts like the other sex? That's hypocrisy of the highest order.

In gayism, 1 gay behaves like a woman

in lesbiakneeism, 1 lesbian behaves like a man, kneels down to propose and acts like a man

As it is same sex, can't they behave like same sex Boy boy, girl girl

I believe in every relationship, there must be power dynamics. One person will always be more dominant than the other. The dominant one assumes the masculine role. So, in a sense, while it's people of the same gender involded, it's also two different genders.
