cruzita:Your assertion, bolded up there, is completely WRONG....and l would explain! First, Marriage involves two people and it will only work, if both agree to make it work! If one of the party wants-out, then BY LAW, they have the right to seek a divorce. The other party can do nadda about it. Secondly, in life, we learn in many ways: By 'direct experience', from the 'experience of others'..... but ALWAYS from EXPERIENCE! Teachers who teach in schools, have themselves been students (Student teachers in training) where they learn the "experience"... so they can teach it to their own students. Judges dont have a "special school" they attend but are appointed based on 'experience". There is a cliché that goes like "EXPERIENCE is the BEST TEACHER"! My point is, Pastor Chris is now even in a better position to talk about LOVE, MARRIAGE, FAMILY and DIVORCE... to his Church members. Now, he will not be just speaking based on what he read in 'Books'.... but today, he has "walked the walk and talked the talk"! He knows what it means to go through a divorce, he knows the up-sides and the down-sides. He is in a better position to advise others, because he knows what led to this marriage breakdown and is able to educate other younger couples, on how to avoid such pitfalls. Now, he would think twice before blaming another person whose marriage is not working out or say it is because God does not accept them or they are not serving God properly! "Experience is KEY".

Back in those days.... We were our brother's keeper! We corrected ourselves, if one of use went out of line We knew the boundaries between what is right and what is wrong We all had moral values that defined what is "acceptable in our society", and what is not We knew that "certain actions" MAY have direct and indirect consequences R.ape was a very rare occurrence and whoever practice such is severely dealt with, to serve as a warning to others Men were taught to "control their urge" while women were taught to dress decently ..But TODAY, everyone says its not my business! Everyone says mind your business Everyone says the level of Ra.pe is too much in our society! But no one is willing to examine why such acts are on the increase? As we lay our bed, so we will lie on it. I will advise the Government to build more Prisons because criminality, as a result of "lost values", is certainly on the increase. AadonTokMyOwn! Lastpage! |
razortruth:How would that happen when part of the "entire South" say they are not even part of Nigeria and hoist another, different flag entirely? How will it happen when some think the Yorubas are their greatest problem! ![]() Those who cut-off their Nose, just to spite their face"..... are on a long tin o! ![]() Lastpage! |
IPOB123london:Carry you foolish IPAD mouth out of here! Does it not occur to a dun.ce like you that the Herdsmen would first pass through the EAST, on their way from the North.....before reaching the SouthWest? ![]() Use your head next time, ............l mean, if it has a brain inside! Lastpage! |
comos:Honestly, whoever made such a stewpid suggestion of creating "grazing land corridor" in the State of FARMERS, needs to see a psychiatrist! Let us be clear, Buhari MUST come out openly and do what is right. These nomadic herdsmen are TERRORIST and should be shot on sight, by the military. How do you explain that in a "law abiding society", some group of people have the right to carry unlicensed assault weapons, kill others, rape others and kidnap them, withoiut the Government/Soldiers/police arresting them, simply because they are "Fulani/Northerners"? Are Fulani and Northerners above the laws of Nigeria or what is responsible for this "inaction" on the part of the authorities? If it were to be a southerner group, wont they all have been arrested and tackled with every might of the Government? Buhari should watch it on this one, nor fall my hand o! ![]() Lastpage! |
TeOwl: She hit him in the head earlier in the morning ---- That is attempted murder, he was hospitalised but he did not die. That means she had more than enough time to reflect on what she tried to do..... and walk away, but she did not. she later PLANNED and LAY IN WAIT for him at Night, and then finished him off. That is PREMEDITATED MURDER, so your arguments dont wash at all. If he died from that first attack, maybe she could have a very slim chance of claiming it was not premeditated but just an act of anger! You cant claim to "sustain anger" for a whole day, if you dont "plan to" Lastpage! |
tolfyn:STOP MAKING EXCUSES for a murderer.... simply because she is a WOMAN! If its a man that killed his wife now, you'all will be shouting "men are wicked, Kill him, Kill him"! You wont say 'something must have gone wrong somewhere'.... or is it with only women that something goes wrong? ![]() Abeg, Stop this female chauvinism please. |
stat04:And should she hold her husband responsible for her not giving birth? Dont women know that there are repercussions to earlier reckless life (as we see ladies who go on three days shex-binge in Politcian's Guest houses, in exchange for money? Some are lucky to escape but not all are lucky. Why must the man suffer for her actions/inactions? Or is it a case of "if i suffer, you must also suffer"? ![]() The man has every right to procreate (if you were his Mother and he is your only child, tell me if you will agree that he should remain with a wife who refuses to procreate?) through another woman, if the one at home cannot. In fact, that is a ground for divorce or marrying a second wife because "the expectations of the marriage" has not been fulfilled. She should be hanged, Its a crime of passion....no leniency. Lastpage! |
chynie:I knew one devil-possessed dimwit MUST come up with a defence for her, no matter how silly it comes across! So, as a Lawyer, she was "helpless" to get a DIVORCE..... or even abandon the man and move on, because she cant fend or feed herself, right? Anuofia! Lastpage! |
efilefun:Well, unfortunately, that is the "bad" aspect of the LAW! If we all insist on "due process of law", we should also be ready to live with the possibility of Lawyers (SAN's), to make an Azz of the law. Dont forget that 'the law' also has loopholes deliberately put there by those who wrote it, to create avenue for smart Lawyers to exploit and spring the client, after collecting their hefty fee. Lastpage! |
absoluteSuccess:Not really! You know, when we are "arguing", we say somethings we dont mean, we say others using colloquialism, we say others using "figure of speech", e.t.c. When you are under "caution", everything you say is "taken literally" and you are held responsible for your words... so you need to be very careful. That is why you are "cautioned"....... Sir, please mind your language! Lastpage! |
Ovamboland: Money to the tune of $600,000 passed through his account! All he needs to do is EXPLAIN the source of such funds..... just like Dokpesi, Olisah "Yam-Eater" Metuh, Bafarawa the Marabout, e.t.c As for Dezzianni and Jonah, let us save the best for the last! Lets not get excited. Lastpage!

Donbrig: You are completely WRONG! It has nothing to do with any house arrest or any restrictions on his movement. When a Policeman arrests you and intends to prosecute you, he informs you by placing you under caution so that you are aware and conscious of your utterances henceforth, because it is being "recorded" and can be legally produced in a court of law. from that point onwards, you cant change your words, as you would do in any 'normal discussion'. Lastpage! |
absoluteSuccess:It means "Whatever you say or do henceforth, can be used as evidence against you in a court of law"! In summary, "watch your mouth"! ![]() Lastpage! |

theunnamed:Contact that runaway woman naah! Go to the military guys and tell them you are ready for the woman! Oloshi! ![]() But seriously, is it by force to marry or stay married? Dont this women have shame or any respect for their own children, ..... even if not for their husband? Marriage is becoming an unnecessary burden, to the younger generation. ![]() Lastpage! |

rebranded:I think the guy (Emefiele) has run out of ideas! He keeps reversing himself,.... while people keep shouting and blaming The President, like he is in charge of fiscal and monetary policies? if devaluing the Naira is Emefiele's panacea for the current problem, then l think he just wants to take the easy-way out because even that 73yr old Buhari knows that IT WILL NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM...so why do it? George Bush was not an economist nor an accountant, Ronald Reagan was just a "film Actor", Obama is a law Professor yet all these people led America to a successful Presidency. There is a reason a leader employs competent professionals to manage key areas of the economy. But l guess people just want to express their bile/hate of the President.... while not attending to problems staring them in the face! Lastpage! |
punkyellla:I am very far from being a civil Servant.... and that comment was actually "tongue-in-cheek". ![]() Seriously, @Bevista and @MathsChic have nailed the discussion succinctly. I also agree that the CBN has been sending the wrong signals since late last year, by making INCONSISTENT POLICY STATEMENTS and often reversing itself within a spate of two to three days! This leads to "speculations" which in itself, is a fuel for profiteering and opportunistic 'rent-taking' by those in the know. I think it will get bad, before it gets better but l also think we might just get lucky in a few days time as the price of Oil rebounds a little - If Iran will cooperate in its export? (though l see no reason why it should because Saudi Arabia has done the same thing (pumping Oil limitlessly and crashing the price, hoping to crumble other competitors!) but is now calming down, with Russia. Something still baffles me though: A lot of people say they can "get forex" to import their goods? I have gone through the CBN, declared what l needed the forex for and they verified that it was not on the banned items list and l was sold the same forex at "official rate"! I have done this twice since September last year. So, l want to ask: Why are those in need of this forex, not ready to fill the stipulated forms, go through the official channels and get the forex to do their imports? Someone told me, if he went that route, it would not be approved because the Generator he imports and sells, is not approved for such official forex. Is that the case with most people 'speculating' on this forex scarcity? Are the other reasons that one is not aware of? How about liaising with those who reside abroad, pay the equivalent Naira into their Nigerian account and let them buy and import the stuff for you (ofcourse, they would do it at the parallel market rate but at least, you will get your goods in and do your business?). I had done that in the past, with a guy in China though it was because l could not go there myself and l needed someone who can 'vouch' for the products on my behalf..but it is the same principle. As to devaluation of the Niara, it has been done God knows how many times but it has NEVER on each occasion, achieved that intended purpose of "shoring up the value of the Dollar/naira exchange rate! All it does is create more inflation and even the so-called benefit (make our goods cheaper and as such increase our export... and generate more forex for the country) NEVER happens simply because we are not a "manufacturing and exporting country! For countries like Germany who do a lot of exporting of manufactured and finished products, DEVALUATION of their currency will be a gold mine for the country and its foreign reserve. It wont work, never worked and will never work for Nigeria. So, what other option do we have? 1.) Let Govt aggressively support and promote 'export-geared' manufacturing Business. e.g, Govt can help business owners who produce export products, to expand their business and owning "shares' in it such that the additional revenue to the business owner can make them increase production, employ more hands and earn forex. BAGCO Supper Sacks is one example that exports its products to all West African state. Dangotte Cement is another and l am sure there are many more 2.) Govt should look at our comatose export oriented industries and revamp them for accelerated production. e.g; Our Steel Rolling Mills like Ajaokuta, Delta Steel Rolling Mills, e.t.c. Also, our Petrochemical Industries which are capable of producing multiple exportable products in a single stream, from now very cheap crude Oil and Gas. Local consumption should also be boosted: Why do we import highly consumed goods like kerosine, petrol when the raw material (crude Oil) is readily available? What can we do to ensure our refineries are working at top capacity? Most importantly, no economy ever grew, no country ever became an industrial power UNTIL THE POWER SUPPLY ISSUE IS RESOLVED. With the "ever-increasing" and incessant increases in the Unit cost of energy (Electricity, since the days of Ibrahim Babangida in 1986! ), using the same worn-out mantra of "increase in price will result to "increase in availability" or "increase in power supply". Experience has shown us that this is never the case. The greedy owners of the DISCOS simply see it as "more free money" for themselves and it is always "business as usual"....... Power generation and supply still remains poor! Why cant we try out a new strategy instead of Minister Fashola subjecting already impoverished Nigerians, to this his "Bitter Pill" that the Rich people in our society never seem to get prescribed with, ...by the same Elite ruling class? We live in a disjointed and dysfunctional society and as it is, it will take more than one solution but a gamut of radical solution, to make any impact on the situation on ground. One thing for sure, moaning or cursing the President wont have any effect! We make the bed, we lie on it. Lastpage! |
biggiyke:Is that TOKEN demanded from you as in the usual "Oga give us money if you want us to follow you to go and catch the thief who broke your windows" ....... or it is YOU, after concluding that the "Officer did a nice, courteous and efficient job", you say: Officer, take this to buy a cold drink for yourself? For one thing, l hate it when Police officers demand money from me, for something which is FREE! I would probably go there armed with a "secret" recording video camera and if he refuses to give me my Permit, l will leave the Permit with him but he should expect to see himself on "all Social media" and especially the Police Facebook page. I hope he wont then complain that l made him loose his job or something like that. I hate extortion seriously!..... but l am generally, generous person by nature Lastpage! |
onatisi:Sharrap dea joor, give us EVIDENCE that Buhari has been PRINTING MORE NAIRA, as you prophesied! With a mono-economy, whose only/major source of income is so decimated (from $137 to around $25 per Barrel, ...even with Iran entering the fray and Customers dumping Nigeria's oil) ........ and you still expect the Naira to compete favourably? Even Saudi Arabia, who invested her "Oil Wealth wisely" in the BOOM DAYS (unlike our Kleptomaniac PDP Looters), is gasping for breath right now, how much less a Nigeria" The "scarcity of the naira" within Nigeria itself, coupled with the President's refusal to devalue the naira, are just two "basic indicators" that throw your baseless assertions into the dustbin Are people like you so retarded ....or just naturally clownish? Lastpage! |
tuniski:When you have too many EVIL SABOTEURS like the one above, in a country, expect things to get worse, before it can get better. But the good thing is, the IPADs are only "cutting-off their own very nose, just to spite their faces"! ![]() Wetin concern me with exchange rate, if e like, make e be #1000/$, l will still buy and sell it, whenever l need it! ![]() "If and when we pound yam ...on a LEAF and cook stew ...on a Nut's SKIN, those who will be filled, ....will be filled" - Yoruba adage (translated literally) ![]() Lastpage! |

Can somebody tell this Ambode to stop messing around and get to work? Lagos is decaying by the day! Fashola used to showcase what he has done every now and then (first 100days, 300days, 500days, e.t.c)... ...the only thing Ambode has been showcasing is Bill Boards proclaiming he will repair a Road or that Road in 2016! Honestly, if not for the phuck.up of PDP/Jimi Agbaje (senseless utterances!), somebody like Ambode should never smell that Governorship post! I guess we have to live with it now till 2016 when we have to vote-out this clueless Ambode (and unfortunately APC as well unless Ambode grows 'a pair' or a better candidate is presented), like we did that shoeless fisherman from Otuoke! For now, "Worst Governor" award goes to Ambode! Next is that Aregbesola of Osun state Lastpage! |
BoneBlogger:Lets be honest, until we see a change of attitude from our Brothers in the East, until we see them singing the national Anthem with their hands on their heart, NIGERIA aint going to make the vehicle of "another hostile country" ......mandatory for our NASS.

klax:Your sin is that you kept quiet for the last seven years when Nigeria was being destroyed by your "shoeless Goat" and his band of looters! ![]() The suffering of people like you is just starting, you will suffer tey, till you confess! ![]() But l have seen many Nigerians getting a new lease of life, starting new business, building houses, building business, taking giant leaps in education and generally doing things they've not done in a long time. So, where is the suffering these #WAILERS are whining about Only the righteous deserves God's mercy and life cant be better! It is smiles all the way.... but for 5% who have been engaging in criminality all these while, una go cry and suffer-die! ![]() Keep "suffering and #wailing" while you are hating on Mr. President and his Government...... 2023 is still a long way off. ![]() Lastpage! |
lastpage:She refused based on PERSONAL REASONS! gerrit? Lastpage! |
I dont know if it is a "coincidence too many" but just looking at all those nitwits insulting the Nigerian President over this matter, they all seems to come from a particular section of the country! Is foolishness peculiar to this part of the country? or how else would you explain that such a large army of #WAILERS cant comprehend a five-line statement? Let us recap what she wrote: 1.) she said she was not consulted before the announcement was made - #FACT. 2.) She then said she is refusing the offer... FOR PERSONAL REASONS. - #FACT 3.) Finally, she thanked the President and restated her unalloyed support for the President and even went further to say she supported his war on corruption - #FACT Going through her offer refusal letter, NO WHERE did she say she refused the offer because "she was not consulted" but these illiterate IPODs have gone ahead yo adduce same as her reason, while crying more than the bereaved! She did open write (though it appears these folks from that part of the country have comprehension problem!) HER REASON for refusing the offer are PERSONAL REASONS! Now, this could mean anything from health issues, family issues, non-availability reasons but what is sure is that it is for "reasons" which are PERSONAL TO HER and she is not willing to disclose such reasons, more than she has done. The fact that she made it expressly clear, that she is a "lover of Mr. President and his actions so far as the C-in-C of Nigeria", did not even cross the mind of these bigoted dofus! They read it but will l be surprised that children of HATE and ANGER, brainless Bigots, will ponder over the ramifications of such open show of affection for Mr. President? Who-sai? In conclusion, l hope people from that side of the country realize soon enough that, as an adage says, "those who pour water 'upfront' will walk on wet grounds"! Each one of us should and must expect to reap, whatever we sow. Those who sow Anger towards Buhari, hatred for the President, Bigotry towards Hausa/Northerners (or about everyone except themselves for that matter), must themselves be aware they would reap these vile attributes in ten folds. These is not a CURSE but a natural course of events in life, like KARMA! When these #Wailing-5% start reaping their reward, l hope they wont come around crying MARGINALISATION and DISCRIMINATION! We still remember what they said about not being in Buhari's kitchen cabinet but pray me, which President in his right senses will put people with such hateful mindset, in his cabinet or anywhere sensitive? A word is enough for the wise. Hatred kills! ![]() Lastpage! |
