EducationRe: ASUU Rejects 35% Salary Increase For Professors; Wants 100% by marcopollo(m): 5:17am On Sep 07, 2022
The politicians without brains collect millions upon millions of naira every month as allowances, many of them with secondary school certificate and even primary school certs. President Buhari is one example. Lecturers deserve more.

Igbos trying to rewrite Yoruba history

So the same iyaloja is who this one is telling her stories like this?

Even a fool will not believe this,one thing igbos have to understand is that no matter how much years they have spent in a place u can’t know the in-depth details of d inhabitants

No wonder many of them goof trying to impersonate Yoruba like princeoflagos,oyeofikotun n co

This is a poorly written blackmail bullshit
Mumu! Who told you the owner of the blog, Gistlover is an Igbo. Just open mouth talk rubbish.
FamilyRe: I Messed Up. by marcopollo(m): 6:33pm On Aug 18, 2022
When it comes to the point of hitting your wife, just know it's time to call the marriage quits, children or no children. If she wants the custody of the kids and can take care of them, good. I don't mind to contribute to their upkeep. But for me to live under the same roof with a woman who will not respect me, knowing that I don't make trouble myself, it's a no-no for me.

There is no law that says you can't date or marry your friends ex. If you like her, love her and you guys get along.... continue jor. Na your own peace of mind matters most
If he has peace of mind he won't come here to ask questions. Granted, there's no law, but it's called a Bro Code. It's an unwritten law.
EducationRe: ASUU Seeks Bill To Regulate Foreign Education For Public Officers’ Children by marcopollo(m): 10:16am On Jul 28, 2022
GreyLaw:
Supported!

There should be exceptions like the one below:

If the children were abroad before political office, then they can continue. Also the children can go abroad after their first degree, as you cannot stop an adult from schooling abroad because his thieving father is a politician in Nigeria.
To me there should be no exceptions. If your kids or wards school abroad, then don't engage in public offices.

FamilyRe: Advice Needed: is she being ungrateful, or she is too kind. by marcopollo(m): 9:36am On Jun 21, 2022
crackhaus:
I guess your sister is one of those people with this personality type - doing something for someone automatically makes her feel she can dictate how the person uses it. grin


Let me tell you a personal story:
Having a source of water (borehole in this case) in one's compound and opting to let anyone who wishes to fetch it go ahead and do that when they want, is a very good gesture...very very good gesture.

However there are two problems that can arise with this;
1. Placing the control valve inside the compound while the outlet remains outside means that everytime someone needs to get some little water, they will have to ring/knock and notify someone from within the premises to open it. This can become very disturbing, intrusive, and tiring with time.

2. Placing the control valve on the outside with no controls within the premises means that everyone will have access to the water at all times. This also means that you will have to continuously pump water into your tanks because humans will always be humans... Once people know they can get the water anytime they feel like, they will get it whenever they feel like at any damn time....some miscreants might even outrightly forget to turn it off when they're done or simply just let their cans overfill and spill everywhere, effectively messing up the surrounding with water.



Your sister really should just do the borehole and not be stuck on letting everyone get it for free... If she's feeling very charitable, she could as well dig boreholes for all the residents so everybody can mind their business. grin
Leave Alhaja to her water business along with the problems associated with it.
Op, listen to this advice.
RomanceRe: Sex Worker Confronts Customer Who Refuses To Pay Her (Video) by marcopollo(m): 6:04pm On Jun 07, 2022
Some of you here I'm sure did not watch the clip and if you did you didn't listen well to the convo. The gist is that the guy "didn't do" cuz of the stench oozing out from down there, but she still wanted to be paid. Who does that? She didn't deny it, but said other boys "do" it like that. And then she told him that she's willing to go perfume there, but the guy would have none of it. He didn't want to"do the do" so no payment. I think he's right. Or maybe she wanted to be paid for consultation fee. Hahahaha

I have the same phobia of traveling anywhere northern Nigeria. But when did you start to have this phobia? Before or after you met her? If before, then it means the phobia may not be as serious as you think.

dingbang:
yes i understand marriage without vacay will be boring but you also need to understand her salary cannot afford that 20k deduction monthly. I suggest you tune it down a bit , say 5k .. You know women's daily needs are expensive..

Hair is expensive to make

Sanitary pads and make up

True,but all these things should be negotiable now. She just left just like that. Shows she's not ready for any financial commitment in marriage.

Women clothings such as lots of bra, pants, high heels.

Perfumes etc.

So her salary will not accomodate that 20k deduction..you sef try understand.
RomanceRe: My Girlfriend Ran Away Because Of My Proposed Family Financial Plan by marcopollo(m): 7:52am On Jan 04, 2022
She should have at least tried to negotiate things with you or did she? If she didn't, it means she must see men as a burden bearer like many Nigerian ladies.

FamilyRe: I Hit My Husband By Mistake by marcopollo(m): 7:04am On Dec 10, 2021
Question is, did you guys do courtship before marriage? If no, then you guys have yourselves to blame? If yes, were you guys like this before marriage? If yes, then why go ahead to marry? All these ugly situations you guys are now facing would be needless. That's why I like advising singles before marriage cuz it's better to take the right step from the start instead of trying to patch a bad marriage. Any advice given to a bad marriage is just a patchwork. Tyre go still leak.
No advice would stop him from verbally abusing you unless he decided to change on his own and you'd keep feeling bad and frustrated in the marriage.
*As a digression, I wish the dowry system in most African societies would be abolished cuz the culture perceived women as the man's property. Whether you ever thought of it that way before or not, that's just what it is. It takes a good man to treat his wife right with the dowry system.

RomanceRe: Is It Right To End A Relationship Cos A Partner didn't Oblige Ur Sexual Request by marcopollo(m): 9:48am On Nov 20, 2021
As a guy in a relationship, you demanded for sexual intimacy and the girl said, No.
Is she a virgin? If no, then she has no right to say no to you especially when she has financial benefits from you and you want to get married to her. If she said she's a virgin, what if she's lying to you? What if you guys are not sexually compatible? Sexual compatibility is a big deal in marriage, you know? There's no other way to know your sexual compatibility with your intending wife without physical sexual intimacy. Use your tongue to count your teeth.
FamilyRe: Sex Starved Husband by marcopollo(m): 9:41am On Nov 20, 2021
Imagine! Did you guys date before marrying? If yes, did you people had sex? If no, then you have yourself to blame. If you people had sex when dating, was she like that before? If yes, then why act as if you didn't know about her low libido? Why marry her when you are not sexually compatible with her? If she didn't show her low libido to you in pretence, then she deceived you into marrying her. That marriage by deceit has no standing foundation. You may never enjoy it.

FamilyRe: My House Maid Has Become My Madam In My Own Home by marcopollo(m): 6:42am On Nov 08, 2021
Foundational mistake is, why employ such a nanny that's not a blood relative of your husband? You got a mature one for that matter. Why?
Right now there's little to nothing you can do about the situation as the house belongs to your father in-law. Your husband too is not handling the matter well to protect you. Probably his hands are tied. This is a lesson to women to build their homes together with the man.
Anyways, there are two options: it's either you also resign to what hand fate played you or you seek for divorce.
