Finally... They've given US a reason to strike them harder

There's a lot you need to learn...

I would say a man is at his prime in his twenties

A 43 year old has to worry about health issues more often than a twenties year old man

Like prostate, hypertension, etc

Finally , a 43 year old should not be looking at 23 year old women. I've met many women in their early twenties as a man in his forties and quite simply they ain't up to my level in maturity

Taquin:
This one is for the babes who are starting to question their worth because of what they see online. I turn 30 next Sunday, so I believe I’m in a good place to write this, not from a place of fear, but from experience and sense.

Over the last few months, I’ve seen some wild comments from men on Nairaland. Things like “after 7”, “evening newspaper”, “depleted ovaries”… you name it. But let me tell you: that’s not on you. That’s on them.

If you're feeling down because of these words, pause and breathe. . These men; the ones who use these terms. I’ve studied them. Yes, I went through their old posts. The youngest among them is about 43. 😂 Imagine a 43-year-old man online calling women expired. God forbid my own future husband is wasting his time typing such rubbish on a forum.
One even replied me once saying I should "rest". This is someone struggling to pay N150k school fees for his 8-year-old child and rent somewhere in the bush in Ikorodu. 😭 Another one, sleeping in the office Monday to Friday because transport to Ajah will eat his entire salary. We already had our third degree by 23 but one man from Ogbomosho thinks he would be doing me a favour by marrying me. These same people shouting “in saner climes” but the only airport they have seen is from watching James Bond movies. 😭😭😭

And these are the same ones screaming "I can't marry a 25+ year old, they’re too old." At 40+? You’re not even ashamed. Ato ole.

Ladies, these are the ones calling you evening newspaper. Do you now see that it has nothing to do with you? If you’re here and you’re worried about these people, don’t be.
This message is not for the real men who respect women and are just struggling financially. My message for you is: it’ll be okay soon, amen.

Now for the rest of us baby girls 👸🏽:
There’s a flawed logic these same men like to push. This idea of "100 women to 1 man". It’s a lie. Statistically, there are more men than women in Nigeria and in the world. You can Google it. They just use that flawed stat to make women feel desperate.
Let me say this clearly girls:
If you are not earning your own money, you have no business dating.
Once you start making money, your standards go up naturally. That’s why you’ll see Regina Daniels with a Ned Nwoko, but you’ll never see Temi Otedola with Dangote. 😏
I saw a thread the other day. One Nairaland uncle asking for advice on dating an 18-year-old. By page 2, he had mentioned giving money to her mother.
So please, work. Even if it’s small. Take yourself on mini-vacations within Nigeria. Join clubs. Play sports. I play chess. In fact, there’s no antichess player in Africa better than me. Just recently, I came 3rd out of 2,500 players globally in the Antichess World Championship . 💅🏽
I’m also starting Pilates with my girls, and I’m going to take standard chess seriously again. I want to become Nigeria’s first grandmaster by age 37.
So please my girls:
1. Buy good skincare.
2. Learn how to do your makeup — Mac, Fenty, Lancôme… get at least one.
3. Look younger, stay fresh.
4. Don’t ever beg for transport fare to go on a date. 🙅🏽‍♀️


Don’t settle because some man with a “Akungba university 1984” ID is calling you names online. 😭
Look at Asa Asika. Look at Davido. Look at Toolz and Tunde. Real rich kids marry close in age because they’re not looking for desperation, they’re looking for a match.
Take your time. Don’t lower your crown. Someone will love you fully with money, respect, maturity, and peace of mind.
There’s someone for everyone. Just don’t rush because of what these agbado philosophers are saying on Nairaland . 😂
Remember:
When they say “You’re too old,” just remember, The only thing outdated is their mindset which expired after Jonathan’s first tenure. Stop explaining your standards to people who’ve never met them.
There’s a man for every woman and yours will see your worth without needing you to shrink or beg for it.
So to every woman reading this: You’re not behind.
Evening newspaper still has breaking news.
Bye baby girls

of all the people here I choose to reply you and only you

What make you think Trump is the super power

Iron Dom fail

If Iran hit any base and there is crack
All the base will follow
They kill a general in Iran last two years Iran responded back with some missiles to America base

What happened nothing

This war is something that will take us all one way or the other
Trump is putting everyone in danger ⚡ line

https://x.com/IranIntl_En/status/1936854278141862131?s=19[/quote]for those who don't understand political rhetorics, this is pure face saving remark by Iran.

If they attack US basis with force, they will get their end sooner than Allah had planned. They know.

They may throw weak missiles or drones just to save face. But if they are serious, let them send heavy drones or ballistic missiles to a US base.

Then history will tell.

This is not Obozo Obama
Or Sleepy Biden.

This is Trump!!!

guysbewise:
They never wanted to go with their landlocked Biafra, they wanted to take the whole of the south and name it Biafra, that was why the Mid-West, and the West joined the Nigerian Army to tame them back to their landlock dot in the circle.

UpaIweka:
As your isreal allowed investigators to examine if it border if it as oppession of nuclear weapon ?

If Isreal refuse to have investigator examine it own nuclesr site what right does it have to go after a country that did ?

How do you defend a isreal that bombed a TV station as not killing civilians ?! Make it make sense. Are the broadcaster part of the top military chief you referenced or you are proving how close to the devil this isreal is ?!

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
His name is Brian.

Him no sabi spell.

UpaIweka:
Funny you claim others lack brain but I do not understand your logic in regards to this subject.

A country Isreal delegate itself security police of the Arab penisula dictating who can own nuclear power, same nuclear power it acquired illegally n you are here defending such senselessness claiming someone as n do not have brain ?!

What is your point ?

decatalyst:
Curse wey dey follow those people no be small.


Abi how do you explain that a trained police office took his gun home, and did not put it on 'safety' mode, and he knows he has kids.

How do one explain this?

brain54:
It's extra judicial killings...

What makes them different if they are using the same methods?

Is it not the same thing they are accusing the terrorists of doing?

I am only questioning their methods!

malali:
Benjamin Netanyahu’s hands are soaked in the long-simmering bloodlust of a man obsessed with one target: Iran. For over three decades, he has manipulated the world stage, crying wolf over nuclear threats, pushing false intelligence, and bribing Western fear with the propaganda of “preemption.”

Now, in 2025, the mask is off.

The targeted assassination of IRGC Intelligence Chief Kazemi and his deputy inside Tehran is not defense, it is an act of international terrorism. Israel struck not a battlefield, but a sovereign nation’s capital. And let’s be honest: Netanyahu has never cared for peace. He thrives on perpetual war, using fear to remain in power while silencing dissent at home and abroad.

Iran has consistently adhered to IAEA inspections and sought negotiated settlements, only to be met with Israeli sabotage, U.S. drone killings, and media gaslighting. The death of 224 Iranians, mostly civilians, in just 48 hours should awaken the conscience of the world.

This isn’t defense.

This is murder wrapped in statecraft.

Netanyahu’s strategy is as old as empire: provoke, demonize, assassinate, then call it security. But history will remember him not as a leader, but a warmonger who dragged the Middle East back into blood for personal legacy.

The world sees it. The veil is torn.

Israel first of all destroyed all arms exchange route between Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis before attacking Iran.

This route destructions helped made sure no one could aid eachother in the event of an all out war.

IDF are something else.

P.S: has anyone noticed how South Africa has turned deaf and dumb on international politics and Israel's war, be like trump don suffocate their osophagus 😂😂


Well our gallant Nigerian army are better than IDF in everything 🌚

You know nowadays I can't differentiate between bloggers, journalists and content creators because this news is not complete yet.. electric surge from a nearby transformer, are they inside the transformer trying to still cable or what?

Kemetian:
Every country on Earth is allowed nuclear enrichment for civil purposes, eg nuclear power plants, including Iran.

That is what Iran has been doing. Iran also agreed to allow inspectors to ensure she was not using it for weapons development.

Israel and Trump refused. Now the war. This is an unprovoked war of aggression by Israel, backed by America.

Atasko:
That's my thought process as well. She sees nothing wrong with a woman hitting a man but frowns at the retaliation. I see it as double standard. She's literally keeping malice with me over this our conversation lol

T9ksy:
I don't need to humble myself to know WHY igbos are all over yorubaland like locusts yet they keep chanting ," yorubas are igbophobic "!

Even the north where your obdurate heads were resetted through genocidal acts during the last un/civil war, you admitted above, how you lot are (back) there in sizeable numbers.

It's not rocket science............ neither is it a sacred secret, ratther......it's simply, economic migration!!!

QED

cutecommend:
There may be office situations that are pressing or with pressure: and this may warrant shouting at those or whoever is at fault.

Now, if a married staff has done something wrong or did not deliver properly, do not shout or openly complain when his or her spouse is present in the office: maybe for a visit or whatever. You may have to wait for the spouse to leave before you may do such if it warrants it.

If the issue is big, you also need to follow due process instead of making a married staff probably looking low in the presence of their spouse.
