Necessity, they say; is the mother of invention. These tough economic winds is teaching us to look inward and go local.

Afterall, our grandmothers didn't have access pads, but they looked inward and improvisedand you will agree that, even if a few percentage of them might have been unsanitary, the majority were clean and decent.

For nursing mothers, if diapers become too expensive, try using one of your old wrapper, tear it into smaller reusable pieces, wash and dry after each use. There are some good textual materials in the market today, that can be turned into reusable pads as well, if we start looking inward, you will be surprised at the myriad of cheaper and clean alternatives.
FamilyRe: Living Under Same Roof With Inlaws……how Does It Look Like? by linearity: 9:37pm On Feb 06, 2017
I doubt if this tradition is functional anywhere in this country.

The tradition presupposes that, the first son must not live or settle down in any other city other than, where his parents have their house ie mostly where he grew up aka their village.

In this 21st century, most people leave their village or where they grew up, once they starts their post-secondary education, after which they only pay occasion visit to the place.

Rather find ways to cop, why not find ways to escaped the confinement. Can your husband or yourself find a job in another city? At least further enough to make daily commutes back to the house impractical? Look in to that, you guys can use that pretense to rent an apartment.

CelebritiesRe: Basketmouth Supports Tuface Cancellation Of Nationwide Protest - Nigerians React by linearity:
HungerBAD:
Irrelevant people.

It is only in Nigeria, uneducated celebrities think they are relevant in the Governance of a Country. The business of running a Country is not a Comedy Show,or singing you are my African Queen.

This is exactly one of the reasons Trump won in the US. Because Hollywood ganged up against him,and thought they could use their star power to influence the election.

You entertainers should stick to entertaining,and let serious minded people worry about Nigeria.
Wrong premises, wrong analysis and wrong conclusion.

For starters, that wasn't one of the reasons Trump won, if your conclusions were true, Obama would have also lost twice, because the majority of Hollywood star powers were backing him both times.

Trump won, because the Democrats fielded a very weak candidate that failed to even enthuse her own base.

About govanance, the last time I checked, the Aba riot in 1929 against our then colonial masters that eventually lead to curb on taxes were not carried out by seasoned technocrats with clearly articulated manifesto; but by ordinary market women, some with no education.

This is the problem with a lot of Nigerians

They believe that an imaginary evil spirit or the people from one's village is capable of ill luck or strange behavior

Seun Egbegbe is actually mentally unstable

The name of the mental illness he suffers from is called kleptomania

Kleptomania will make Dangote who is the richest man in Africa steal a 10 naira pencil




How dumb are you to believe that an object or deity can cause strange behavior ??
Your diagnosis is wrong, you falsely assume that as a movie producer, the guy is rich. The reverse is the case, the guy is broke and he engaged in these activities to make ends meet.

The honorable Senator should have still hold on to his $100, by December this year; he will regret this stunt that he pulled, because at this rate, a dollar will be exchanging close to N800.

Sound financial advise for Nigerians, instead of MMM, use that money to buy dollar and keep. Imagine if you would have bought dollars with your Naira from the mallam at the corner of the streets about two years, when it was still N200, the mallam would have gladly pay you N490 to collect those same dollars back.

Also, savings account in the bank is useless waste of time and money, buy dollar instead.

From the looks of things, this government doesn't have a clue what is going on with the Country's economy yet, talkless of preferring solutions.

Out of the 36, wey possess am, three names are: snake, anaconda and serpent. Something tells me that, had she continue to enumerate the list; python, cobra and viper would have been among them.

Why, is it that, when others were moving left and off camera after been touched by the God of Man, she moved right and into the view of the cameraman? Abi dem don do rehearsal for backstage, where dem for package the miracle for effective camera shots and eventually unhindered vintage scenery for those who will later view the digital version?

Plus, in all these mass deliverance or anointing services, when a whole section of people fall at the presence of or the waving of the hand of the God of Man; the cameraman does not fall? I have watched thousands clips of deliverance/anointing services and never once seen the cameraman falling. On the day of Pentecost when the followers received the anointing, the Bible said, they were ALL under anointing and spoke in foreign languages. I am sure, if there was[were] cameraman[men], the biblical account would not have changed, they would have tow the same line.

Please if you come across any deliverance/anointing service video where the cameraman[men] towed the line, post it here.

Dude!

Do both of you a BIG favor, don't marry her, be open and tell her the reason.

Also, don't keep her waiting, you are tying her down, the early you release her, the better. Be a man, summon the courage and make that call and tell her that, you are sorry that it is not going to work.

In life, you have to learn that, no matter what you do, it is impossible to please everyone. No matter where you face while standing, your back will still be turned against half of the planet and it's beauty and that is how it is in life.

Note that, he was not caught red handed by the area boys, otherwise it would have been pointless to make statements like, he will go and find the money.

Finally, if you meant to recuse him, why allow tires to be put on him and a petrol brought there ready to go? Or were the tires put there in his absence, while the area boys wait patiently for him to arrive before proceeding to light the matches?

Some nice critical thinking there! Hope that is also applicable to chemical and biological abnormalities like people been born with a different gender than they feel internally and acts out.

There are many physical, chemical and biological birth 'defects' in the world, but we many times only empathize with the ones we can see, feel and touched, which is very wrong.

Believe me....if you are good looking, most guys will shave you 'down there' on the very first date, does that mean, you just jump in and make that important decision to marry 'that guy'?

Also, you might even be surprise that, the guy down the street or at the bus stop, will gladly oblige to shave you 'down there' without blinking an eye, just spread it and he will go to work immediately, I guess that means he is a keeper?

HealthRe: How Do I Tell My Fiancee She Has Vaginal Odour So That She Won't Feel Bad? by linearity: 2:00am On Jan 26, 2017
Try the empathy route.

Do some internet research on the cause and solution, then internally, put yourself in her position i.e. there is something she does not like about you or something you do and each time you do it, it causes her some little discomfort, but she is not bringing herself to tell you, because she felt that, if she did, she will offend you.

Coming from the above premises, approach her and tell her you are truly sorry, that you have betrayed her trust in you as a close friend and confident and that you have been selfish and too coward about approaching the subject, but lately; you felt that, if the shoes are turned and she failed to tell you something due to the same set of principles, you will be annoyed and would not be able to proffer solution.

Then, go ahead and tell her that, it might be possible that, she has caught one of those toilet bugs, that you perceive something strange each time you guys are doing it and that you have do some research about it, then ask her what can we do together to solve this and that you don't want her to fall sick.

So is it because of 4k savings that your sister decided to patronise smugglers, and now you say she almost got scammed. I think you are naive in your thinking. They say that he who comes to equity should come with clean hands. YOU BUY PRODUCT FROM THIEF AND YOU SAY THE THIEF TRY TO THIEF FROM YOU.
I didn't read where it was indicated that they are thieves. They simply bypassed Nigeria border laws and policies to bring the goods in.

On another level, the same people who are calling the woman 'criminal' would bet an eye to buy foreign rice because it taste good not minding the fact that it is a banned goods and most have been smuggled into Nigeria or when they have little money, will sneak into cotonou to buy cars illegally or when they get little foreign currency will chose to patronize the mallam on the road side to exchange it illegally at a higher rate than to go to a Bureau de change and get government official rate, I can go on and on how these same people circumvent Nigeria laws to have a more favorable outcome, yet you are calling someone who did the exact same thing 'criminal'...HYPOCRITES!

Since water is more dense than oil and sinks to the bottom of any container with oil.

How is your sister sure that, either the bottom half or 1/4th is not water?

When she found out that two were water, She should have either emptied the other two containers completely into something else to make sure that all of it is oil or refuse the deal completely.

Gerrard59:
Because Trump won? Did you say same when Bush won and Al Gore lost? Even Abraham Lincoln won 40% of the popular votes.

The electoral college is to America as winning 2/3 states is to Nigeria. If not, states like Lagos and Kano (NBS statistics) will determine the president.

When those women begin to protest about the incessant rap€ in India and women abuses in Saudi, then I can understand their grievances.
Trying to clarify a point you mean...

The US election of 1860 was contested by four good candidates and Abraham Lincoln even with 40% won the popular vote along with the electoral college vote.

Bush & Trump losing the Popular vote but winning the Electoral college votes is a new pattern in the UD and might likely continue each time a democrats losses the White House as it is not feasible for Republicans to win the popular vote giving America current trend.

The next question is, if the Democrats will continue to allow it to slide, the wisdom in the ID is, they will not; but will wait patiently until they know, they have the votes both at the National & State Legislature to move for a constitutional amendment.

It makes sure one large state like new York or California doesn't use its size to cherry pick the President.

Not true.

The Electoral College is not democratic and American is not a democracy.

American is a constitutional Republic and that is how the founding fathers want it.
