Learning a handwork is not compulsory abeg. I think the emphasis should be on self sufficiency, not everyone will be a business owner and even business owners need employees. The point is find something to do and excel at it whether you're male or female. And @op please remove the age restriction, it all depends on the path you're taking in life e.g if you intend to become a doctor you'll most likely not be done with medical school at 22. Be a badass employer, professional, blogger etc just stop relying on the little hole tween your legs

An igbo girl will not do that.
If igbo girl will not marry u she will neva accept ur engagement.
She would tell u she can only date u.

you haven't been out much my dear or you won't be saying this. I have seen wicked ibo girls, their wickedness is not because of their tribe it's just their nature

Let them split already! You have family issues and the next thing is to post the gory details on social media, exposing members of your family to ridicule. You think social media cares? Everyone has their own problems, goodluck to both of them in their endeavors

Exactly... after what a Yoruba gal did to my brother. My brother loved this gal even more than his Us his sisters.
But that neva botherd us because we understood its LOVE.
The whole family welcomed the her
Mum always looking for what to give her whenever she comes.

My brother later engaged her.
But guess what ?..when the wedding was fast approaching.
The gal quit, she returned the engagement ring.
(The mum gave her some bad advice or something)
We couldnt bliv it.
My brother locked himself up close to a week.
Cried day and night even partially lost his senses in d process.
Mum was in pains becoz of him.
It took Gods intervention to bring him back to normal..
Its a very long story shaa but thank God hez ok now and happily married.
dude is living a happy life abroad with his family.


but Right from that dayi killed the like i hav for yoruba me died.. and will neva ressurect again.
I hadly stand and listen to whateva rubbish any yoruba man is saying. And will neva have anything to do with them.

if we all turned against other people's tribes,races, religions etc because of our experience with one or two persons who belong to that group, I'm pretty sure the world would be worse off. If of was an IBO girl that did that to your brother you'd have alluded her actions to her bad character but since it's not someone from your tribe ,it's because she's Yoruba. Y'all have serious issues

Expecting my own miracle. I've been seeing this hallelujah challenge and I'm so joining it this night

tosyne2much:
Good guys still outnumber good girls shey you know?

yeah right!

Just look at them fooling themselves Lord! I wonder how y'all take topics like this serious.

Smellymouth:

Lol. Lordkylie. How are you?

I'm fine dear and you

nikkypearl:
and the ignorant fool is making millions here and there! bitterness kills faster than Aids

hun this is everything that's wrong with the Nigerian society.As long as you're making millions you're above mistake and can do no wrong.No wonder our politicians walk all over us after all they're making millions (oops my bad billions)

Smellymouth:
Nigerians are bunch of hypocrites..

If the same comedians crack jokes about Dr Freeze's assault by his wife , na the same ladies go open their 32 teeth dey laff..

Now everybody don turn Feminists and activists..

If men were God sha..

Thunder go fire you if you quote me wrongly..

oh please what is wrong is wrong. Condemn the two sides not this one you're ranting here.Joking about assault whether on males or females is wrong and if you feel like it isn't getting enough attention for males ,be the first to start a campaign against it.Everyone is quick to shout Nigerians are hypocrites, what are you?

I disagree ,you can't joke about everything. You can't joke about things like rape, kidnap,assault and even disabilities. I don't know if I'm the only one who finds jokes about people who stammer offensive, they were born that way and in most cases can't help it.It's not cool to joke about some things, we all should learn to draw the line at certain points or the next thing is we'd be joking about autism.

crazy people everywhere

The real name is ebelebo

kemen's actions were wrong on so many levels and I'm glad he apologized or at least tried too. Making jokes out of the situation was totally distasteful and should not be encouraged.

BUTCHCASSIDY:

Barrack Obama smokes
Brad Pitt smokes
and a lot of successful peeps
Will you call them irresponsible?

you know success doesn't always equate responsibility.

are you a doctor? What do you know about nicotine

I'm not a doctor. I know nicotine is a drug which can be a stimulant or for relaxation. It's quite addictive and is used in cigarette production (of course they need to boost sales).Although it's addictive, a number of medical experts say it's not soooo harmful except when used by persons in certain groups(adolescents, pregnant women .....I don't know) why do you ask tho?

Can't blame her siblings for standing up for her, I'm quite surprised that AY made a joke about what happened to her that was an all time low for him. I sincerely think Nigerian comedians should stop making jokes about assault, rape etc but then Nigeria is a sick society where anything goes.That said dear nairalanders if you don't want to hear about tboss and her family anymore, I suggest you stop creating threads about them. Alas ,the world loves drama like this so they're prolly not going away anytime soon.

100k? dafuq you kidding me!!!! Dude that's a warning sign tho cause if you have to pay your girlfriend monthly allowance you ain't in a relationship, you're the cash cow. Sorry

dingbang:
anyways sha just quit your reasoning about smoking.. Too bad you are a Nigerian.

nah I won't it's not a good habit just like taking too much sugar. You gat a problem with Nigerians?

dingbang:
Sympathetic you say.... Well people gotta do what they gotta do.. There is no point judging on their actions..

we're human and prone to judge.The same way you're judging those judging smokers.

fabiano09:

I do not exalt Obama,I only used him as a reference because the holy grail of anti-smokers is that we are irresponsible. My stance on piercings has a religious undertone,but that does not in any way affect my friendships. I know at the end of d day your opinions are yours,and you feel nothing can change that ,but you have to have a rethink,don't judge people,don't judge people,I repeat again don't judge people based on what they do or wear or act,if we all change our mentality, Africa will.move forward .

well do you and I'll do me.My stance on smoking might be religious too. Anyway in my posts I wasn't talking about friendship but relationship. It is probable that i have a smoker as a friend but I can't date the person. I think you also need a rethink, know what you want and don't compromise on it. Don't judge people on what they do you say, oh please that's a bit laughable.I do not think smokers are outright bad people they just have irresponsible habits (like we all do), an irresponsible habit I am not willing to put up with. As regards African mentality, I do not see anything wrong in making certain acts socially unacceptable, the problem started when pretence stepped in.

so aunty has become a celeb because she once alleged to be burna boy's babymama.Na so

Just like my grandmother (God bless her soul).She always encouraged us to stand up to bullies and not take abuse from anyone.

LePrezident:

So you're a drama queen?

if I may say so myself. YES YES YES!!!!!!!

dingbang:
ok.. Do I smoke? Miss psychic

clairvoyant. I was actually referring to physical meeting. Social media provides a covering for the truth,false appearances everywhere, don't do online dating.I don't think you're much of a smoker tho prolly just sympathetic towards the cause of smoking.

fabiano09:

Am not pained,on the contrary am happy,cuz u realise the error of your ways,just as you judge the smokers,dts how pple ignorantly judge girls with piercings, that's the fallacy of our Nigerian ways,exactly why we are so morally bankrupt and corrupt,we judge pple based on appearance or what they do or don't do,Barack Obama smoked both weed and cigarettes for a long time,he only quit cigarettes last year,are you better than him?? Or our politicians who drink and smoke in hiding? I don't wana rant,sorry of you feel insulted.

my opinion remains the same ,smokers to me are mostly irresponsible not all tho. I don't feel insulted by your opinion on my piercings.Besides smoking is not just an appearance it's a habit that I CAN'T stand or tolerate.I don't care if you're Obama or a top executive, my definition of responsibility is different from yours and smoking is a no no.I can't effectively compare my self to Obama cause he's like two or three times my age.Lastly, you might exalt(lack of a better word) him as better than others because he was America's president another person might not( I don't for example).Smoking whether in public or inside the corner of your closet is not my thing just like piercings are not your thing. dazall

dingbang:
okay... You can't know if they smoke. Its not written on their foreheads

yes I can know, I can detect smoke from a long distance and for some reason I always know people who smoke(even if it's just closet smoking). Secondly I usually ask and if I later on discover you smoke it's goodbye from me cause there's no need dating someone with different ideals and constantly trying to change the person. It is stupid

#teamdramaqueen while I kinda agree with the op ,I must also point out that the above depends on the kind of man in question. After all,person talk say lazy girl na somebody sweetheart or something like that.A man who is irresponsible will most likely attract such women bottom line (I feel weird saying bottom) guys who can't deal should run away from such women. Nice write up

fabiano09:

So says the tot with piercings, yea my mother calls them jezebels.

you sound pained hun that's my opinion.Last I checked the op asked for ladies' opinion on smokers and I gave mine. If that's your opinion about people with piercings so be it. By the way,the only piercings I have are on my ear(common enough) and that picture isn't me.I'd like to remain anonymous on this forum

dingbang:
see dis one.. But u can date a white man abi? Since almost all of dem smokes

sorry how did "a white man" enter this conversation? Anyway refer to my earlier post, can't date someone who smokes ;white ,pink,brown, yellow, blue or black.

They are irresponsible (most times) shikena! I can't be with someone my parents won't approve of so I can't date someone who smokes.
