Is it bad for Christian couples to have sex after traditional wedding and before white wedding?

This is the answer..
Christian couples can have sex if traditional wedding is the last wedding as agreed by them or their parents etc, and no other wedding after that. But if a couple have another wedding after traditional wedding, please they should not have sex. Have sex only when all weddings are done. You can do only traditional wedding if you wish, you can marry in your father's house etc, as long as both parents approve it..
Lesson: Have sex after all wedding(s) are done.

The Nigerian traditional wedding 💍 has more Christian scriptural standing and reference than the adopted Eurocentric cultural former pagan white wedding ceremony.

If you know the word of God you cannot be decieved.

If you don't know the word of God you are already decieved 😞 you just don't know it .

not good enough for Chelsea, not good enough for France U-23 are you sure he’ll be good enough for Super eagles?

Listen to what you are saying, how many of our players currently old and or young are good enough for France U23 and Chelsea.

You must be having a laugh 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Philosopher1979:
Yeah that is the issue. Spain don't use explosive wingers/strikers. That is why they sometimes struggle to score. They should leave the passing to their midfielders. In the last third of the pitch you have to explode and try and score.
I don't think it is a total abandonment of tiki taka but a modification.
I may be wrong as u have not really watched them in this euro but what is your opinion

Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams are spectators in the crowd it seems according to you .

Lamine is actually 16 and plays for Barcelona as well.

If not for NFF, Nigeria would have been more successful than England. Na the EPL dey give them mouth.

who stone me?

Which Nigerian player will enter the England team I don't see one ❓

Englands problem is a dead boring manager who Lacks innovation he is conservative and too emotive with his players selection.

Philosopher1979:
People here may not agree but olisah ndah has the qualities of a libero. Immediately you see him play you will notice.

Can you please remind us where he is playing first❓

It's one thing to look good and outstanding in a very low level league but up the stakes and they are completely out of their depth.

Second question ❓ if he is so good why is he playing in an obscure low level league

Meliforme:
Super eagles midfielders with the most long balls

Kelechi Nwakali
Raphael Onyedika
Ifeanyi Mathew

Finidi targeted a long ball strategy against the South Africans, he did not invite Kelechi Nwakali and Ifeanyi Mathew. Raphael Onyedika that he did invite even started from the bench.

Most players don't resort to long Balls as a main skill set strategy because they have other football competencies and attributes.

Anybody 😦 can play a long ball but the timing and accuracy of the long pass is the key 🗝️. Consider Trent his ability to do the long left or right foot within a mini second makes him stand out.

But then it's his pin point delivery from free kicks dead balls, shirt and long passes his reading of the game through balls and crosses plus the ability to shoot and score not just long ball that makes him a top level player.

Instead of us too look at better players you are mentioning Nwakali & Mathew .

Justin Fashanu story is pathetic.I remembered I watched Norwich vs Liverpool then as a kid on a big league soccer TV relayed matches…..highly talented than his brother John Fashanu.He lost it all by suicidal thought and later killed himself

Justin Fashau was a very talented footballer but was sexually abused by his foster parent's.

This traumatic debasement of his person resulted in multifaceted personality issues. He then got involved with homosexuality and was accused of rape by a 17 year old boy in the USA.

He committed suicide before the matter got to court.

Very tragic

Black tudors 🤣🤣🤣 like black samurai abi. This one don go read cooked up history. No be only black tudors na black Saxe - Coburg - Gotha.

I think you can make an argument for your position without being condescending. That said, this is a sensitive issue with both position having it's merit. We also know that much of this rules exist as is because the west largely benefits from this. There are multiple examples of this rules being abused across different competitions and the west are the biggest beneficiaries. To assume abuse doesn't exist is being disingenuous and I'll give an example for context.

Joel Embid is one of the best basketball players in the world today. He was born and bred in Cameroon to Cameroonian parents before emigrating to the USA to further is basketball career. He was given presidential recognition in Cameroon as was seen as the catalyst for basketball development in Cameroon. That was untill France came swooping in and granted him citizenship by special circumstances so he could play for France. He committed to playing for France at this year's Olympics game. The USA however granted him citizenship and he ditched France to now represent the USA. This is one of many examples I can cite to give credence to my point. There was a time when Benin Republic was literally granting citizenship to Nigerian players so they could compete favourably. I still remember Muri Ogunbiyi vividly from 2004, a player of Eyimba who had no ties to Benin dorning their jersey at the AFCON. .

Glory Alozie was a Nigerian athlete that medalled for Nigeria at the Olympics and won multiple laurels for Nigeria in the late 90s. She emigrated to Europe and was granted a Spanish citizenship. She then switched nationalities and represented Spain till the end of her career. This still persist till today. This is when worse in Athletics as most of the biggest athletes in the Middle east now are from Africa and particularly Nigeria. There are multiple athletes who represented Nigeria at the last Olympics who now represent the USA today. There are multiple examples of this in football also across Europe.

On the flip side, Nneka and Chinney Ogwumike and Elizabeth Williams wanted to represent Nigeria at the last Olympics and applied to switch nationalities with FIBA but got their application refused because of "significant ties" to USA.

My take, I personally think the threshold for representation should increase that what obtains now. I think that representation of countries by immigrants and Children of immigrants should begin from the second generation. That way you would have shown significant ties to your nation of residence. I understand this may not be fair to children born and raised in said nations, but I think it for the most part solves a bit of the concerns that persist now. This isn't gospel by the way, just my take.

You are being presumptuous to a fault, who is concerned and why ❓

You are self justifying and self birthing notions based on what self .

You give examples of extreme situations and highlight uncommon situations but irrespective of the rational it is the individuals personal choice. Or if you like the people's choice.

You are supposed sense of reason id what RACISM discrimination and favouritism are anchored upon.

According to you if your regressive ideology was adopted we would have been denied some of the best leaders the world had known.

Obama would never have been President of the USA because his Father is a Kenyan. Consider Jerry Rawlings the modern day architect of Ghana would never have been allowed to rule, the son of a Scotsman.

Do you know international citizens who are 5th generation Jewish opt for national service in Israel and many give up their life's in the IDF.

You have a parochial mind and you are not progressive.

You are what geriatric incompetent political leaders are using to divide ➗ Nigeria on religious, tribal, spatial lines for selfish evil 🙈 political gain.

charlesemeka85:
which pple of onitsha traced their ancestry to Ile-Ife?

No Dey put mouf for wetin u knw nothing about

Why not do some open source research and don't rely on fables and hearsay.

Mujtahida:
I simply believe that it is right for native people to represent themselves. Where's the beauty of the competition? It's like AFCON in Europe. Let Europeans do the Euro and AFCON for Africans.

If it is America, its okay for blacks to cover the ground due to the history of that country or if there are one or two blacks in an European team but to have the whole team dominated by black people is fraud of a certain kind.

Lest I be interpreted as anti black. No. I'd say the same thing if the Japanese team is dominated by white people.

This idea that just because a person's parents emigrate to a country, give birth in that country, fiam their children now become natives is a fraud in the same category as the trans agenda when a woman says she's a man or vice versa.

So Saka is an English man now? Odiegwu

This is the depths of bigotry and retrogressive ignorant thinking.

The USA was founded on immigration should we call the native Indians who barely constitute 3% of the total population. Therefore native Indians should be the only ones to represent the USA in the Olympics, National football team, basketball, American football, etc .

UK 🇬🇧 had emerged from immigration across the entire European continent predominantly. So who are the true indegenious English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish people of the UK 🇬🇧❓❓

Do you know that the Oba of Lagos gets his staff of office from the Oba of Benin ❓Do you know the people of Onitsha trace thier ancestry from Ile-ife.

Do you know the original inhabitants of Jamaica where the Taino Indians who constitutes 0.5% of the population compared to 93% who are of African descent.

Do you know Black Tudors existed in England (1485-1603) we have Black 🖤 African in the courts of King Henry Vlll and even before that . Parts of Spain was conquered by the Africa origin Moors that was in 711AD.

This your narrative is disgraceful comes from the depths of degenerative thinking 💬 it's not how to move forwards.

It's reflective of divisive conflicting geriatric incompetent political ideology that pervades our society today.

Instead of looking for competency merit and capacity holding on to that that will create progression you hold on to what will DIVIDE ➗ US 💔and take us into the abyss of 🖤🖤🖤 darkness 🌑.

Napoleon55:
Some want those who haven't been opportuned to live abroad to believe that the Americans and Europeans don't have regards and respect for elders,
they believed is a culture only practiced in Nigeria.

But I strongly believed that showing respect to elders is a universal value that transcends cultural boundaries, recognizing the importance of their life experience, wisdom, and contributions to society.

100%

Even when it comes to women we think Nigerian women are the most submissive.

Well two of my friends are married two Iranian women born in the UK and professional women.

The consider marriage not as a partnership but leadership by men for which they are to support there Man ( husband)

One of my Canadian friends has a 14 year old son.

When his Father talks to him he stands up hands behind his back in a posture of deep respect and his son responds with the diction, YES SIR

benji93:
I suppose we could say that's unique to African elders. No problem with being unique.

And you need to stop this nonsense of condescending to others with the 'y’all haven’t lived outside the shores of Nigeria'. No be you go first go abroad. people don dey go abroad since 18 kokoro. Nigerians/Africans have communities that manifest in churches e.t.c. In these communities, these cultural values are in place, perhaps to a lesser degree.

Asians:Japanese, Chinese, Indians, e,t,c- have their cultural quirks too, sometimes similar in purpose to ours.

If you are frustrated that we are low on initiativeness as far infrastructural development e.t.c, fine. You are not alone in that feeling. However we need not pull down our structure of values for it. Others have prospered flourished economically and still hold those values dearly.

Where can I send you a crate of Champagne 🍾🍾🍾

typicalgamer:
Down here we want Everyone younger than us to give us respect which is wishful thinking

What's wrong with that having respect and consideration for others whether they are older or younger and more so if they are OLDER.

M7even:
This is a Nigerian thread. This is not abroad. Even abroad,I still don't see or treat people without regards. I hold it upon myself and my roots to be polite , decent and thoughtful. What that boy did is pure crassness.

Thank you very much 👍🏿

BankyGee:
Boss I swear you first me type this thing. He would've been highest goal scorer now after Own E. Goal

And people geh mind dey talk nonsense on Osimhen during AFCON. Ronaldo missed one 1-v-1 chance 🆚 Czech Republic the other day and has not scored in two games now. Even the entire France never score one goal for this tournament.

We too like play for this country 😂

You are comparing VO to Ronaldo someone who has done it for nation and club consistently for two decades.

Don't you think 🤔 you are misguided.

Marjoribanks:
His response was wrong, agreed! The subsequent reactions were all manner of wrong too.

Why should he be the one to call Finidi?
Finidi should have come out to clarify/call Osimhen himself if he actually respect the APOTY.
Osimhen could vividly observe the lack of respect for him even from Finidi's response during the phone call bouhaha!

I read between the lines!
You won't understand cos you don't come from his background!

Bad behaviour is bad behaviour.

Irrespective of a person's background is absolutely no excuse for bad behaviour.

Call a spade a spade.

typicalgamer:
Only an African elder would want someone younger than him to treat and address him like an elder

Seems some of y’all haven’t lived outside the shores of Nigeria

There’s no Ekaro sir for abroad

It’s a free world I’m surprised a 3rd world country is so adamant on respect and acknowledgment when there’s a bigger problem out there

Because Eurocentric values norms and culture have no regard and reverence for parents and elders.

Does not mean we should adopt these destructively perverse and debased behaviours.

yinkeys:
Onyeka
Ndidi
Iwobi
Yusuf
Should be taking accurate shots outside box 18

What you cannot do week in week out in your club and league with consistent outstanding top level quality YOU WILL NOT DO IN THE NATIONAL TEAM.

How many career goals has Yusuf, Onyeka , Ndidi and even Iwobi scored.
.
And you think they will come to the SE and all of a sudden become prolific.

kennysville:
Omo see caveat.... the guy go come flop for him new club you go come say here and now abi? Agenda must surely agend.

Did he flop at QPR and Aston Villa ❓so why would he flop at Everton ❓

charlesemeka85:
Tim Iroegbunam joins Everton from Aston Villa

What about the midfield maestro the solution player to all of the SE problems 😔 has he gone to Sporting Lisbon or Porto .

charlesemeka85:
Epl club Everton interested in Aston Villa’s Tim Iroegbunam

Confirmed transfer for a player who would add to the SE in the Here and Now..

Marjoribanks:
Osimhen is going to Arsenal! Arteta and Edu see him as the profile to hand them both the Champions League and League title next season.

His jump power, press, xG and mental Character suits the profile Arsenal wants. Similarly, Arsenal's Ex-players like Henry and Petit want him. Current player like Saka is a fan too. They see him as the profile to elevate Saka's game to the next level!

Arsenal could smell Napoli desperation to sell Osimhen this season and its playing the waiting game to force the price lower.

Arsenal is not concern about Osimhen's injury problems all they need is a player that will elevate the mentality of their team and there is no one out there except Osimhen.

They saw how he led Napoli to their first title in 30 years, and how he almost led Nigeria to AFCON glory.

Osimhen and Arsenal a perfect Union!

Chelsea is also watching to see if indeed Arsenal will move for Osimhen and then snatch him from them.
Arsenal knows Chelsea is watching and playing it clever.

You sat down with Arsenal football ⚽ analysts, Arteta and Edu and had a detailed discussion.

You are really well connected to Arsenal.

do4luv14:
Injury happen, and stop spitting nonsense

Can you not descend to the gutter of ignorance and hostility.

I have been watching Etebo from when he was in Warri Wolves, so I am not talking nonsense.

Etebo is officially 28 his career had not been plagued by injury 🤕 he has had a few but not too serious.

It doesn't explain his demise not sure what happened after he was in the Greek league.

AndSunGorilla:
Please where is Oghenekaro Etebo?

I had extremely high hopes for Etebo, expected him to dominate the Championship and then get into the EPL.

But the Championship seems to have not been a good place for him.

Last I heard he was in the Greek league he only 28 can't understand his drop in form.

At one stage he was the best box to box midfield player we had, I thought he would have been the next Ngole Kante.

TheGoodJoe:
Please, Amunike is far more experienced than Finidi. Check their profiles. What worked for Finidi was bias. Which kind assistant role. 😂

What has old age experience of Methuselah got to do with wisdom of Solomon.

How old and experienced is the German national team coach.

It's that same crass debased retrogressive mentality that allowed competence ability and by comparison youth to be rejected for a geriatric incompetent fraud romancing with dementia to lead a nation.

TheGoodJoe:
Makes it shocking that Finidi doesn't.

So why don't we have 200 thousand top quality exceptional excellent coaches.

What qualification did Alex Ferguson have when he became a club manager 😔 did that take away his excellence.
