Should the lady be a liability herself??What has she been doing in her 20 years+ of life??No business, no craft. Just to sit down and be looking at the pocket of Men to marry!!!

Chukwudi4naija:
You've got an opinion now. Trying so hard to appeal to your primitive gold digging instinct. What about advising folks like you to have a minimum level of financial freedom as backup for deficiency in their future hubby's finance. Don't you know that a rich man can become poor any time? You think life is everly rosy. Please endeavour to know what your man does for a living before you jump into marital commitment in the name of escaping from proverty.

I swear to God i had a cousin that i can boast of being the next Ronaldo in the next 2-3 years from now that went for screening o, they already saw his talent but guess what! One of the board guys said he should bring 1 million naira and the other said he should agree deal with him that they would be sharing his salary till 70:30 till he retires and my cousin is just 18, they should not worry they will come back to beg him to come play next world cup for naija and na me go personally tell him the options he'll give them

All we do in this country is man worshipping. They have stated worshipping the new Lagos state governor. 3 wise men indeed. Record has shown that governors who engage in too much media propaganda and jamboree are bound to fail. Mark my words, sanwo olu of Lagos state and emeka ihedioha of imo state will fail.

Nairalanders are mostly damaged goods. Don’t expect them to see anything wrong with this man’s pervert behavior

Guy I dont cry racism neither am I moved by how others acts towards me. Like I stated it is everywhere....even in ur community. The Osu tradition in the east nko? As a student the A student and the back benchers...these are natural phenomenon. Some animals would not cross others for 'some' reasons. The Black man should stop crying and work hard. the Soyinkaa...Phillip Emagwelis and some others blacks are cherished by Oyinbo. The reason is ..above. ...what they brought to the table.
My Broda..no be quarrel let's first stop racism in Nigeria..the discrimination. Lets love and so others will not see as animals. CAR is one richest country in the world but the poorest. The reason is corruption and wars! Your country nko? Exporting crude oil and importing petrol with all the engineers! If somebody no show you respect you go con vex?
I am doing my own little way.

vRendoh:
How much worth is the Black man?...how much value so the Blackman add to the world? The poverty stricken black Africa even with world richest resources add to the disgrace. The day the Black Africans starts making things themselves and selling technologies to the rest of the world....the world will show respect. There is discrimination in every society. Everywhere! even among the whites. It is the values you bring to the table that count.

When u Nigerians brothers av spoiled their country with bad image.

Female siblings are like that.

You can't control them and as a guy you can't ignore them to their whims and caprices because you don't want her to be taken advantage of .

My younger sister is 21, and was telling me she can go and come anytime she wants.

I just didn't know what to say at that moment.

Haven't done this before, but I want to know your honest, experienced and well thought out opinions. I'm really depressed but I won't take Snipper (that devil is a liar). If you don't have anything serious and reasonable to say, please, just read comments (I know as e dey be for here, sometimes).

Its quite a long read. Apologies for any grammatical or typographical error encountered.

Here is my story.

My younger sister who is staying with me disrespects me alot, and she doesn't take my advice. My parents stay very far away and I feel responsible for her. It frustrates me whenever I tell her something and she will wait to do it at her own time or not do it at all. She even sometimes abuses me indirectly.

She is 19, came to stay with me last year November, for a Predegree program, after staying at home for two years without admission. After the first semester of her program, her result was released and it was very disappointing. She made 51% in only one course of four courses, while others are below that. To be honest, I felt I failed in my responsibilities of giving her the right counsel, motivating her, and all that. All she does is press her phone all night long, that's if she isn't watching a movie with her phone. She'll sleep and wake up the next morning by 8 or 9am.

Recently, there's this guy who happens to be my late landlord's first son in the compound where we stay that she has been spending too much time with in dark corners and I can tell in my gut that he's up to no good. He doesn't go to work, school, church, nowhere. He just seats at home all day, smoking weed and any other smokable substance he can lay his hands on. Sometimes, his friends come around and they smoke and play PES 2011 on a laptop. Lest I forget, he's also a cultist. He has tried on several occasions to make me a yahoo boy, but I had to consciously refuse.

My apologies for the long read.

About a week ago, this guy asked her to cook indomie for him, and she did, using our gas, without telling me. This got me really up set. I had to take several deep breaths. I calmed down and allowed her finish. After she was done, I asked her to seat down and we started talking. While we were talking, she started responding rudely to me.

This made me hit her for the first time in 19 years (I hate hitting them). To my utmost surprise, she hit me back. That singular act made her receive a very hard beating that she sustained lots of injuries. She immediately called home and my parents where now shouting at me on phone. My dad came the next day and said lots of things. My mom said lots of things on phone which just piss me off the more, called me all sought of names. Said I shouldn't allow the devil that is controlling take me close to my sister.

Right now, I hate all of them. My dad, mum, and sister. If I was financially buoyant enough, I would have moved out of this house. I feel really depressed, being having nightmares and I so much hate the fact that am still living here.

By the way, am male, 24, studying Biochemistry, should have finished my first degree last year but I'm having an extra year (3 spill over courses).

How do I move from here? Advice me.

The man was clearly trying to pass a message, that is how it is done in saner countries

Safety instructions is supposed to be given in other local langauages after English.
