I am single... I have a friend who is married. We always hangout at least every weekend... But last weekend, he didn't come around I called but he didn't give me a tangible reason...
So yesterday, he came around my place, I noticed his mood isn't as cheerful as it used to be... I asked, what was wrong?. He said "You Neva marry you no go understand".
He wanted to say more, but I said no need, he shouldn't say anything.. till he left I kept quiet.. I didn't say anything...
So I want to ask o, if na only married person fit give advice to who don marry...

No. However for quality advice, go to an experienced person.

One should not depend on a cobbler for advice about beads.

The only politician more influential than him today is Jagaban himself

Jagaban2012:
All these Nursery school political scope Una dey play on Nairaland or social media....is not for me....I don pass all this baby comments....if you doubt ,
Ask about my Monicker from the" Politics Moderator " He monitor my comments like SSS officials...the my political.indepthness has.made me Political Iroko on so many social media. Platform.....

I wouldn't want to waste my time on you because from all.your comments, it is obvious that you need to be tutored by a political mentor....you suppose to learn how to crawl first before you start jumping like an Obo Lagido....

So what will put food on my table today like dis, is to begin to ask people about u? Pls take care of urself and enjoy the rest of your day. Good bye

Jagaban2012:
NLC is working for Obituary Peter while.NURTW is working for Tinubu Bola....NLC will soon turn to shred because Joe Ajero had turned NLC into. political organization....and we have all. kind of people and political parties affiliation as members of. Nigeria Labour Congress...

NLC will soon shred into pieces.....

Ok, but are you not suffering? Is this present economic situation sweeting you? Are u happy with the palliative collected? Do u think the govt can do better? Are u happy with what has happened to naira? Food prices nko, it's fine with you? Is the essence of strike not to force govt to care/do better?

What will finally finish this country will be politics of tribalism, it makes people blind to their own suffering and problems. More dangerous is the fact that it makes people not to hold leaders accountable simply because na our brother.

I read the statement of the nurtw chairman and I just don't understand. Oga said Nigerians are now struggling to survive and yet nlc should go and sit down because president is from sw. Ok, y are Nigerians struggling to survive now? Isnt it because of subsidy removal plus naira floating all at once
? Govt has saved trillions from this according to them, can't they do better with it to ameliorate the suffering? Can't we at least try and save the naira a bit seeing that we are majorly import dependent?? Isn't all this y people are now struggling to survive and those with means leaving the country in droves? Isn't these y monthly take home Can't take people home anymore? Can't the govt do better to aid their survival??

Politics of tribalism go kill us patapata

Paramount01:
Not 100% correct

I agree with u. Some of the points are a bit misguided.

No 2 for instance. A greater % of wives put their families (parents/siblings) over the man, not the other way round.

Then a lot of the other points- slave mentality/cat mouse, not helping out etc does that exist in modern marriages In this Tinubu economy Which man now wants his wife at home doing only chores All those points seems blown out of proportion, while a few men may still do all that, it's not the majority.

The painful part of this will be that this man may have borne all the financial obligations to make this trip happen...flights, visa/application fees, sch fees, etc and may probably have left a good job/business to join her.
Japa is very capital intensive, to lose it all this way....I can't even begin to imagine it

Well, with the improved production and removal of subsidy, NNPC should be awash with FX.
1. Why borrow FX then?
2. Most importantly, when is FG/CBN going to intervene to save the naira?

madridguy:
The best coup that can happen in Nigeria is we the citizen against the rulling class.

Gen. Sanni Abacha is dead but till today Nigeria is still going around to bring back his loot kept in different part of the world.

We Nigerians, our first mission must be against our states governors. These people are our biggest obstacles to our development. We Nigerians must wrestle the local governments full autonomy away from the states governors.

We recovering his loots till today because he died. If he was alive, he would have been a kingmaker today

AuschwitzPrefec:
Ohu, if not for a Supreme court ruling that compelled the federal govt to pay 13% oil wealth to Akwa Ibom from its offshore oil wells which you ohu bastards opposed alongside the north ,Akwa Ibom won't be recording such laudable strides.

I will also remind you how your fellow ohu legislators also opposed 25% oil revenue to oil producing states alongside same north when OBJ proposed it .

It took Yaradua as president to unanimously negotiate with the house to agree on 13%.

You bastards have always supported the north in shortchanging the SS .

Was it not your same useless senators that voted against Akpabio emerging as SP?

Was it not that convict in waiting, Urji Kalu that was campaigning for Yari as SP with him as DSP and making useless promises to scrap the ministry of Niger Delta ?

You bastards are not our friends or brothers

Better begin to understand that the useless eastern Nigeria is dead and buried.

SS is not only a distinct Geo-Politcal region but will soon be an independent nation.

You've made urself as jobless as the troll u re fighting with. Everybody knows akwa ibom is SS, so y on earth are u explaining 'Taya' to the extent of even attaching map if u have smtn serious do to? Make una kwontinue, while we dey Waka pass

AuschwitzPrefec:
Ohu, why not address your ohu troll?

Better carry your mgbeke #500 short time ass comot from my mentions.

Quoted u cos I felt u are the more intelligent and the more respectable one between u two, u just proved me wrong. Good bye

Very serious club. Doku is good.
Chelsea, man UTD be busy struggling to overpay for over hyped individuals

I am only interested in this question-

madams, who is/are your sponsor(s)?

Of all the ills bedeviling this country, a group suddenly emerges, not against the plan of govt to share 8k to citizens while sharing millions to govt officials, not against the price of fuel, not against rising inflation, not against the rising cost of food, not against the jumbo packages of govt officials (exec and Nass), not against the rising size of cabinet/cost of governance with additional cost of planned invasion of Niger when we have barely $3.7bn foreign reserves but only against 'Akpabio's comment'. And are even willing to mobilise 1m women march.

(That word, 'mobilise' ehhnnn, if u kno..lol)

Who are ur sponsors? Just tell us first.

a4cube:
The governor is a fulani so he won't listen to them.

So they simply have no case, simple. Will FG dictate to a governor how to run his state or which city to use as state capital. No

Typical Nigerian politician, trying to water flowers under the rain. Trying to take credit for what he knows nothing about

JohnnA1:
Good suggestion.

But the state is under the state governor not FG. I think the state HOA and the governor should do this if that's what they want and simply inform the FG. Not the other way round.

This topic is misleading abeg. Op do the needful.
He didn't die "while working extra calls as punishment". Put things in proper perspective.

Nice

How can one sleep well after reading this

Paragraph 5: an estimated 30,000 bandits operate in north west Nigeria.

30,000 bandits only in NW.

So add NE and NC...

This figure is excluding BH, ISIS, ISIL, IPOB, militants, Niger delta agitators, killer herdsmen, UGM, cultists etc, so add them too.

Number of armed men with criminal tendencies patrolling the length and breadth of my country.

As the economy bites harder and harder and hunger increasingly perches at the doorsteps of these armed men, who will they turn their weapons on for sustenance? Who will bear the brunt?

How does one sleep well laidis

mayor1814:
calm down. did I accuse her of anitin. so if someone tells u look older than two years ago u go dey cry. I watched d likes of Liz Benson, Regina askia, alex usifo, yemi my lover, edna ogoli, funmi adams, Mike okri dem, doz are musicians reigning then etc in my pry school days, i doubt u enjoy entertainment from dis line ups probably dey relate dia exploit to u, omotola n Genevieve dem, senior secondary school days

Drink water bros. I'm only pointing out that she is old, and her hair is supposed to be white. Simple as that.

What broke the camel's back for me is this statement from our madam

'you are the one that wanted my hand in marriage, and if u cherished me, u would do all they wanted since u re not paying twice'

Chai. Men they see things sha.

mayor1814:
Nice pic. Genevieve don dey old small oo. I be I no see well ni. No b white hair I dey see so.

Of course she is old. Didn't u watch her movies while in primary school??

She still looks very good for her age

Omoawoke:
Are they scared? I thought they were battle ready.
If Nigeria had chicken out, na real Bleep up. Make ordinary Niger wan use us shine.

International politics is a game theory.

A leader is faced with several option and each decision is like a butterfly effect.

Faced with two choices

1. Act
2. Do nothing

If you act, what is the long term consequence of option 1? We restore democracy and send the message loud and clear that no room for coup in west Africa any more. You do coup, you won’t get away with it.

2. Do nothing: for the mean time, there’s peace and temporary stability. What of the long term effect? Then it means anybody in west Africa can do coup and get away with it.
And what’s the longer time effect? Political instability here and there in west African countries. And any region there’s political instability, they will always experience economic instability, security challenges such as terrorism.

But some people because of their empty brain and selfish interest, because their candidate did not win election, they wanted the worst to happen to Nigeria not thinking of the long term effect it will cause to them. You throw stones not knowing it would end up hitting yours. Ase ni se ara e

Nobody here is battle ready. Not Niger, not Nigeria. Diplomacy is the best way out here.

Within Nigeria, the north (Muslims) is not in support of the war. Nigerian soldiers are mainly northerners. The christian leaders have advised against it too . As a leader, u must put all these into consideration.

I expect that the President will use the outcome of this meeting to calm things down and pursue diplomacy. We both needed this outcome, Niger and Nigeria.

concho:
Good morning Friends,
Sorry I’m coming up with this on a Sunday morning .

My brother has been very sick since January after his warehouse got vandalized and couldn’t offset a bank Loan.

He was diagnosed of hepatitis B and his condition got from better to worse

I knew the debt was part of what was eating him up , So I promised him that will do what ever is within my power to offset the debt just to save his sanity and health

I called the lady ( loaning officer) that aided him in the loan process and requested for restructuring since it’s a commercial bank (Sterling bank)

I explained the critical nature of my brother’s sickness to her and my brother’s inability to repay the loans

She said “No” to restructuring and started laying curses on my brother with threats.
She later called to inform me that she has taken the case to a Deity in her village ( Over a bank loan)

Fast forward to last night , She came with armed police men on tricycle and beat up my brother , chained him and took him away .

I immediately put a call across to Sterling bank to know if they authorized or came for the arrest on Saturday evening and they said “No”

They said that they don’t have a hand in the arrest and they don’t operate that way


Please friends , how do I go about this
My brother is still in detention and the woman is still threatening to jail him

Give full info.
What was ur brother selling? What was in d warehouse? Wasn't it insured? How much did he borrow? What purpose? When? When was the warehouse vandalised? How much of the loan has he repaid?
Taking such extreme measure against ur brother tells me there is something u ve not told us.
As for advise, u said u already called the bank and they told u they don't do such. So go back to them and ask them y they did so in this case.

Rokiat:
1d. Also, polygamy is actually a burden on the polygamous man, because he now has more mouths to feed, and children and wives to take care of. His pocket has to be heavy.



Are these men been forced into it? many of you men are polygamous by nature and ain’t hut satisfied with on pussy. Whatever burden it comes with ya all deserve it and even more hardship.

Is this all u can come up with?

OyeofIkoTuN:
We don't do innocent civilians..We do soldier to soldier.

We are not cowards..Kudos to the igbo lady for exercising her rights.

Most foolish comment I've read in a while.

The lady is heartless and high-handed and unfit to be in d military. U can't even send her to war cos her type commit unspeakable war crimes. And yes, such type of soldiers exist in every tribe, country, race and color.

How do u get so rich (to own a $1.2m plane) and yet so careless? How

Onlinefarmstore:
I go to those places though under heavy security

Better listen to advice. Abi u no dey hear of the security men wey Dem dey kill for dia?

MrBrownJay1:
why would you care what insane people are doing (when their wives themselves dont complain)?

who is really to blame here: the yeye husband or the deluded wife who agrees to the above nonsense?!

The percentage of 'yeye' husbands who wouldn't want their wives to work in Nigeria today is far less than the number of women who by themselves, don't want to work.
Majority of women today have taken marriage as their work. Gist with any average girl and u will hear 'let me just marry a well to do man and just sit/take care of the house'. No drive, no ambition, just soft life.

See what this one is arguing passionately below. According to her/him, husband and wife have had careers for 17 yrs and yet can't afford a nanny. That's the type of stories they tell themselves to justify their crave for soft life (laziness)

UnfairLife7:
how many average Nigerians can afford nanny? Not even in this Tinubu government. They find it not easy feeding their children not to talk of bringing in another mouth to feed. Not everyone can afford feeding more mouth when ordinarily they are not finding it easy with their nuclear family. The girl was so smart to be terminating the pregnancy but we in the neighbourhood get to know through the lady that gave her the pills to abort the pregnancy.

They are only around on Sunday. But the children no be am. The 17 years old girl is in Ss2 but she's doing things far beyond her age.

Juliearth:
Those aren't any better. Have you thought about the amount of chemicals these fish-pond-bred catfish are laced with? Their food, vaccine and fattening vitamins are very much laced either toxins. Smoked catfish aren't better because smoking is not a healthy choice for humans.

Juliearth:
Are the dried ones not roasted initially? Roasted foods are not so save, you know. The vitamins and food they ate while alive is another risk factor. Animal foods are loaded with preservatives and chemicals that are quite harmful to the human body.

What in your opinion is the best alternative?

Na skit na.

However if true, where u dey madam when bestie go market come back, cook soup, served it and cleaned up the kitchen?
Where were u?
U created the vacuum that bestie is filling😁
If ur own food is always ready and served promptly, will bestie be cooking?
Same goes for other things a wife is supposed to provide, stop creating vacuums

honeyB2018:
There's no way of showing hatred for a tribe than this. In the South West, Lagos State not excluded the railings on the bridges in almost all the overhead bridges have been vandalized, no where has it ever been said to be the Yorubas or the South Westerns, rather it has always been ascribed to the vandals
Vandals are everywhere in Nigeria and are ready to vandalize anything within their reach that attracts their intrest.
I wonder why this post should be captioned like this, if not for hatred. There's no where in that report, that it was said to be the South Easterners.
This kind of attitude can put food on your table. The IGBOS are blessed and there's nothing your hatred will cause them.

Exactly my tot, manholes and metal components are stolen from 3rd mainland bridge. Wike complained same was being done to his flyovers. Nobody titled it, Southwesterners or Niger deltans. It was vandals and miscreants.
Now it happens in Onitsha, the OP tags it south easterners.

Note that Nowhere in the vanguard report was south easterners mentioned, it was miscreants all through.

We do things without actually knowing the meaning. The title of this topic has accused all south easterners of being criminals and anti development, even wen there is nothing in d report to say that the culprit is actually from SE. And even if there is, do u tag an entire region as criminals because of the crime of 1 person?
Very sad indeed.

@ OP wwwihy
The seeds of discord u sow today will consume u and ur children tomorrow, keep sowing.

@ seun and mods, keep on allowing such on platform.

beerfraud:
This is the one of the reason why Railway track did not pass through South east

Just imagine, any word for this one cos I can't type what's is my head to describe s/him

Omoawoke2:
They have been doing that to us in Lagos for ages.
They steal government infrastructure to sell.
When they are the most impoverished region in the south, this is what you expect. We pray the government develop their region and provide jobs for them
If you see the video of Enugu boys flocking into Lagos on daily basis, I fear for the safety and sanity of southwest in the hands of this eastern refugees

Another one.

Curse777:



Niger will see shege...

Tinubu would use Economic warfare to force them to surrender

Niger is Landlocked... No seaport
A no fly zone means nothing goes in or out

Let's give them a week when hunger bites hard, and they run out of basic supplies especially petroleum products.. they would run to Abuja to discuss as they always do
