Both you, tinubu and his urchins and touts will not die well as you people are planning to set Nigeria backwards more. God will disgrace you idiots.

I will be on the side of every one of you now. Your mama, your babe and yourself.

First your MAMA: Guy try settle that innocent woman with the only request she asked of you; grandchildren. You don't really need to marry before you achieve this. Just target your babe and do the needful. I buried my papa last Dec and it still me that he didn't live to see my kids even though he already has some from my sister.

Your Babe: I know how girls with this kind of talks dey act. She wants a Godly marriage and home, she goes to church very often like too religious but she might stil have a side guy by the corner in case... or that is wiping her in your absence. She is using the religious things to coerce you into committing with her.

Lastly You: Bros why you no wan marry na? Look make I tell you, marriage is not that difficult as people would want us to believe. Forget about all these "if you're emotionally, mentally and financially ready" things, it all depends on whom you meet and wants to marry. Ask yourself, are Okada and bricklayer people who're making little money not getting married? You sef go fit still do am, just get one babe way her senses correct and start with her. It doesn't matter how little but the main thing is that you 've started and trust me, that your vision of building an empire will still be realized. You can't play away your future in the field, since it didn't work out for you in the field you should open up other channels. Marriage is one of such and your hidden blessings and potentials will manifest.

In as much as I will never support any kind of infidelity and extra marital affairs and I'm deeply sorry for about what you're going through now.
OP I have a feeling that your story may not really be as truth as it is in reality. Many women knows what am about to say, you people like to manipulate men and the situations surrounding us to always make us look bad while you carry victim card around.
If your husband should say his own side of the story, it could be that you're one hell of a horrible woman.

Maybe you don't appreciate his efforts in everything he does, with kind words of THANKS and ENCOURAGEMENT.

Maybe you nag him from morning till night.

Maybe you don't clean up and dress smart.

Maybe you're very rude, mannerless and uncultured.

Maybe you're lazy and selfish in the bed, no style, no creativity and no adventures.

And your husband have looked very well and prefer to find peace in the arms of your opposite kind of woman and here you are writing epistle.

And also, maybe your husband is just as asshole who thinks with his d!ck.

Just incase:

I edit films for film directors.
I’m currently not making much because I’m still with my oga. But it sure pays my bill as its where and how i got to be anle to save money for this

Ok very good. I asked because I believe that your age has a lot to do with your aspirations and how you start life. Permit me to say that most guys in your age bracket have just stepped into what we call "fvck boys" (didn't mean you're one now) and how you navigate through this stage in life will give you a broader insight to what you should expect in later yrs. I was 22 when I rented my first and only one room apartment (thanks to God I've gone far above that), a friend told me that since he was able to afford one room apartment, everybody else will be able to afford it one day. So I'll encourage to be strong and endeavour to make the right decisions even though they might be difficult, avoid fvck boys company and avoid also girls with fake feelings and love, when you're due and ready, you'll meet the right ones and be able to choose. Keep your head up and focus, evergreen is next. Nice day.

formular760:
Last year December i made a resolution with God that I’d have my own place.

This year I finally saved the required amount and here’s a one room apartment and this is my first bachelor meal .

Better days ahead i pray

Before I tell you anything, do you mind telling us your age pls?

Most Nigerian ladies are whores and love peddlers. Let the guy engage the bitch on a recorded phone calls to extract more information for evidence and to protect himself from being blackmailed or framed up and proceed to tell his brother everything so that he can throw that LovePeddler to the street where she belongs.

Nonpartisan1:
Election time don reach. Their party PDP through Peter Peter Obi don dey takk to them.

Sorry ipob terrorists it is too late. Just continue killing and cannibalising your people, we Nigerians dont care.

We are blaming buhari for lack of understanding and comprehension but he's definitely better than most of you zoo animals who are not old like buhari but lacks understanding and comprehension ability. He was taking to us Umu Chineke (Children of God) and not to you children of hate, bitterness and anger who promotes failure and mediocrity instead of merit and competence. Your useless federal gov't and it's agents of destabilization and killings are the enemies in the write-up. Try to get sense or at least borrow some.

Vickyvice:
Embracing peace with who? Fed government? Does embrace peace mean abandoning the Biafra agitation? Kanu make is clear pls

I know that comprehension is the problem of most you people. Read it again but slowly and more attentively. He was referring to Umu Chineke and not Umu ekwensu from the zoo. Children of perdition, hate and envy has no place in the kingdom of God on earth; Biafra. Your federal gov't and it's agents of destabilization and killings are the enemies in the write-up.

seunmsg:
Chronic IPOB separatist are now chronic unity beggars campaigning for Peter Obi Pandora to be the president of the same country they want to breakup.

You can go hug the transformers, your useless shithole country will not make any meaningful progress no matter who you rig into power because the system has already been corrupted by the likes of your mini-god Tinubu.
FYI, the people chanting Igbo presidency are a very few political elites and their sympathisers. An average Igbo person on the street needs Biafra restoration and that's what we'll get and there's nothing you can do about it.

Whatever you idiots like to say or do, the northerners are still the ones drawing everybody backwards because of their stupid ethno-religious sentiments. They don't bring anything to the table but wants to consume everything from the table alone. Failing to vote in Peter Obi as the president in 2023 will become another political misadventure like voting in buhari in 2015 which in all, the great Igbo race warned and sounded it to everyone what was to expect from a buhari presidency.

Michelle70:
After years and years of insults on the north even though they hardly reply u.

Yes I believe the northerners are not dunce

Hypocrisy is your hallmark and we're not surprised anyways. You support the North because we called them by what they truly are after killing hundreds of thousands our people in the north during uncountable unprovoked attacks and riots and millions during their pogrom and genocide agaisnt my people but chose to criticise and hate on us for defending ourselves and our land and calling out the animals that did evil to us.

Mere commissioner and jagaban of corruption

Peter Obi for the win jareh....

Confirmedzombie:
Instead of an igbo man to rule Nigeria, let Buhari rule for another 8yrs.

Igbos don't how to play politics, too emotional and sentimental

Well, your moniker said it all and you only re-echoed what you are; confirmed zombies.

gidgiddy:
This is how you know a hypocrite. He says he is unbiased, then he goes on to show how biased he is. This is someone claiming that Kanu was arrested, but his own federal government could not even tell him, or other Nigerians, what country Kanu was arrested in, the extradition process Kanu went through, or any legal process that was completed to bring Kanu back from a foreign country to Nigeria legally

He knows well that Kanu was kidnapped and extraordinarily renditioned to Nigeria, but the hypocrite in him will make him turn a blind eye to the illegal actions of his government, while asking for the law to be allowed to take its course.

Then he says that ESN is responsible for mindless killings in the South East, but like most people who say this, cannot show one single shred of proof to back up that accusation

He is an afonja gutter media personnel.

Olodo with empty brains, you first insulted our intelligence with this rubbish you posted and expect that we 're not gonna insult you back. You don't want to bring anything to the table but you want to carry everything including the table and then turn around to call us maga or Mumu. Behave yourself there now ooh.

See the way some Yoruba suffer heads are trying so hard to blackmail the East and demonize Mr Peter Obi. These people are really hateful and bitter souls, especially those tinubu urchins and political sycophants and miscreants.
Tufiakwa!!!

seunmsg:
Wike is the next presidential candidate of PDP. He is far more qualified to fly the party’s flag ahead of the rogue called Atiku and the Pandora thief. As governor, he has performed way better than so many of his contemporaries. In fact, 20% of his achievements in office is enough to dwarf all the audio achievements of Peter Obi Pandora while he was governor of Anambra.

I fully endorse Wike for president!

Its obvious hatred and bitterness for Ndigbo is what you eat, breath and smoke all day long.

Unnecessary intimidation. They're your family for crying out loud, you could've resolve this in a family meeting and possibly settle them with what they're "stolen" if truly they did stole from you.

Nothing new here, nnewi people drive bikes as early as 4 or 5yrs old.

Quitam:
He has a good profile. However, where he comes from will be his major problem.
This is not a racist comment but the reality. In recent years, many Igbos are passively supporting the violent activities of the ESN which has pitted them against the FG and other regions of the country. Scores of security personnel were murdered but only few Igbo statesmen had the chutzpah to condemn such acts(Peter Obi included)
From a political perspective, you can't win an election with votes from zone, ditto your region. You gotta form alliances with other regions to clinch the ticket. Buhari tried that 3 times, he didn't succeed until he struck an alliance with SW
My words to the SEners, stop the hate mongering against other regions ( because you benefit from them economically, and contribute to them too). If not, the presidential ping pong will always exclude you. The SS, who is the nation's cash cow, don't harbor much hatred against other zones like you guys do despite the fact that the Igbos are 100 times more dispersed in the nooks and crannies of Nigeria.

Must you twist issues to suit yourself? What do you mean by violent activities of ESN? Over the years, Nigerian security forces have been killing IPOB and Igbo youths in hundreds and thousands only for peaceful and unarmed demonstrations and you and your kinds looked away and said that's what they deserved but when the people said enough is enough, you can't be killing us and no one comes to our rescue we must defend ourselves. You now change the narratives to make the victims look like the aggressors while the aggressors looked becomes the victims.

Singing: This na temptations with a little confusion, infatuation, brother...

amnesty7:
Confusion is a serious problem. Tinubu they say no. Atiku too they say no. I am sure they will say the same to Wike or Osinbajo. That's what happens when you allow IPOB to think for you. They should kuku endorse Nnamdi Kanu.

And truth must be told, if Mazi Nnamdi Kanu by whatever means or reason (I'm sure he never accept that) becomes the president of the Nigeria, you and your miserable lineage will experience a tremendous change and upliftment from your misery into a greater and more fulfilling future.
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is not your mate or any of your politician's mate in terms of reasoning and capabilities.

Yes we know that there are randy men everywhere but the truth is that most of these lazy ass slay mamas would prefer to be fvcked and given easy life and access to anything instead of working hard to get it by themselves.

These northern fulani Muslim terrorists have not finished what they have in stock.

Child and forced marriage.

Vandalism.

Treasury looting.

Election rigging and malpractice.

Drug abuse.

Terrorism and mass killings.

Armed robbery.

Kidnapping.

Prostitution and almajiri.

Now, cannibalism and ritual killings.


These set of people are not supposed to live amongst sane and descent people like the Biafrans.

Atiku Abubakar should just retire from active politics. He has nothing to offer except to achieve his lifelong dream and ambition at the detriment of our millions of people. Tinubu and Atiku are on the same mission to offer nothing than personal fulfilment.

Aisha buhari is a corrupt bi*ch who deserve public execution together with her family.
Btw, she don born ?

FERNANDEZISBACK:
Relax..if you don't have a conscience other's do..
A young kid was murdered in cold blood and buried and you are here saying that gibberish up there..

Her matter deserve more audience than ever so as to show the world how wicked and heartless human can be..
Imagine if that was your sister or daughter will you be able to bear it..do you know the mental pain of loosing a close person?

Have you ever lost someone then look through the pictures of the person and reminisce about it?you really don't know what it means to be murdered do you?

You too relax and stop being a hypocrite. Little kids and young people were massacred in the East by fulani Muslim terrorists and this efulefu didn't not bother to say a word to mourn and encourage their families but he's quick to send condolence to a northerner killed by another northerner just because of politics.

Your brother is the man and I respect him so much. Not like me way get soft mind and will quickly forgive anyone be he a man or woman. Sometimes I use to blame myself or my parents for the kind of soft heart that I have.
But he can also forgive her or at least not rush into the divorce stage bit rather send her back to her parents house as a penalty and final warning.
I hate this idea of rushing to the social media to seek validation or opinion of people who have nothing to contribute to your betterment.

My take is, the man is foolish.

The wife is still näive.

The girl is not only confused but stupid.

The girl is the reason that man is being adamant about reconciling with his wife because his eyes have been on the younger sister.

The girl will be very wicked to accept that.

I'm sure both of them have fvcked multiple times that makes you to be enjoying his company.

Finally, if this is not a cooked up story, it will end up in premium tears.

She fit be a deeper life member. Most of them dey pretend shaa, bleeps more than dogs.

Tinubu's downfall have already started in the South West. Sadly, his ilk be urchins and political miscreants will find a way to blame it on IPOB and the Igbo people.
