Nigerian mothers....sometimes their yes means no.

I'm so sorry about the happenings. I pray you get through this soonest. The Lord is your strength. My prayers are with you.

Everything GTB is fraud. Know it now. Writing from experience. A word is enough...

Some of these interviewers can be so mean. That was how i went for an interview that was scheduled for 10am, the interviewer arrived by 2pm and couldn't even apologize.

Please my dear, i feel your pain genuinely, you can start be going to a church that has welfare that can take care of you. or Even call Aunty Landa. I honestly feel you should leave that house. Overcome your fears dear.

I really feel your pain because i have been there. I know how hard i tried, yet when i met them, all my expectations were cut short. I'll advise you brace up and look towards the future. Believe and trust Jesus for a way forward because He alone can give you the peace you desire. I love you and Jesus loves you more.

WOW... Impressive.

I ask God what has Nigeria done to deserve this kind of frustration that make MEN and WOMEN begin to consider masquerading as a career. God please deliver us from our leaders of today who are a bunch of confusionist to the citizens. Shioor.

I'm really fighting this hatred thoughts right now and i need maybe advice/counsel on how to overcome it.

I come from a broken family. From the time my memory can recall back, i have always known my home to be at war for the most part of my childhood. If it's not my dad's sisters fighting my mom to the extent of tearing off her clothes, it will be my dad and mom shouting at each other. The cord finally broke when my mom took in for our last born and my dad denied the pregnancy because she had just put to bed and 3months later she was pregnant again. He sent her back to her mother in the village and that was where my mom had our last girl and died 3months after.This happened when i was 8years old and till date, father and daughter have not seen eye to eye as hatred brews in my youngest sister heart towards my dad.

After my mom's death, my dad's finances dived. He traveled out in 2000 abandoning my 2 "legit" siblings and i to the care of his family. The family shared us and used us as maids for other people. Luckily for me, i was quite bright that even for two years that i didn't go to school, when i eventually did, i took 1st position and i was given double promotion and my Wassce fees were paid as well as Jamb. I got the admission first hand. As God would have it, my father started communicating with me and helped paid my fees till graduation.

During my wedding, for the first time in 15years, i saw my dad. I thought he came to give his daughter's hand in marriage, to my bewilderment, he came to marry another wife. Without consulting us his children, my dad took a wife chosen for him by his same sister that battered my mom.

He is planning to take this new wife abroad without any plan for his children atleast my younger ones. I feel so sad right now. Just when i thought i could put the past behind me, my dad hasnt stopped hurting me emotionally.

Please anyone been in my position should advice how i can handle my dad to take care of his responsibilities and communicate things to his children.
