Means d sun has chlorophyll so DTS y its green, den we go plant cassava deer na noni.....I bliv only no. 8

As a Blogger, Online and on air Promoter, I meet many upcoming artist who just record their songs and burning to CDs and running around the streets begging people to buy it... No matter how nice it is no one will. I rem once I bought it just to help the artist after he left I toss it away, not nice, I know but you can imagine the reaction from others...well am gonna give some tips on how you can promote yourself the free way, although there's the paid one too.... Its not full guarantee but its a step worth taking.

1. Be active on social media

People will say, yea its normal, but most upcoming artist underestimate this...I invited an upcoming artist to my show (Maryann live show on Wazobia abuja) and I asked for his twitter handle, I typed it into the system, behold he had only 13followers, following 8 people and last time he post was last year... Now after announcing his handle on air n Ppl checked him out, how many people will follow him?

Twitter, Facebook, Facebook Page, Instagram should be your close companion... Sell yourself on this medium.. Let them know what you do and what you stand for... Let them know your open to come and perform, for a start without pay, but your tp would be taken care of.

So many people underestimate the power of Instagram, with the fact that you can post 15sec video, harness that free awoof to free style n post. I start a fashion column on Instagram and I have over 400 followers in just 2 weeks, wondering how I did it ( that's my lil secret which I'll share later)

2. Take full Advantage of YouTube

Hmmm yes I said youtube... Many Ppl are of the opinion YouTube is only for Videos, no ways, YouTube carries both video and audio. I adviced an upcoming artist to upload his song on YouTube, he was complaining n got angry why I asked him to do an impossible task, I didn't answer him again. Another one met me n I told him to do the same he pleaded that he tried but cant and I should help.. I help him (ofcourse he took care of recharge card).

The long and short of the story, I put his audio on YouTube and promoted the link, in 24hrs he 200 views, some like and some disliked it...n (frankly d song no too sweet like dt).... You should have your YouTube Chanel where your album and everything about you will be visible to the world.. Uploading audio is a bit tricky but meet a cafe guy he should be able to help.

3. Produce a Good Marketable Song

This should actually be the first, but after putting d not so sweet song on youtube n it had 200 views in a day, then who am I to judge, so i thought this should come last ( one man's food could be another man's posion). Some people might tell you your song no make sense, but when you push harder it turns out to be the opposite, so I don't discourage anyone...

As an on air personnel, I get to meet loads of upcoming artist with different songs and vibes... Truth is, out of every 15 I meet only 1 is good. When you take your songs to oaps and beg them to promote you, they listen to your song n e no make sense, thats when money talk comes in...

But if your song is nice n different trust me help will come. An OAP came with a song to my show n asked me to just listen to it, after listening, I was like, I need this on my show, right away... Everyone was just playing his song without a dime from him... Everyone wants to blow, then come up with a music that's different from the rest and with meaningful Lyrics (very very important). Any song with Bleep or nigga stuffs like that if it manages to get play on air, it will be edited out... For me I don't play it at all.

Well guys, there you have it, like I said this is the free way and its worth trying... Good luck
If you have questions just drop in the comment box..

A mother has caused outrage after sharing photographs on Facebook of her son tied with a dog leash and eating like a dog from a bowl..Despite deleting her facebook page,Philippine authorities  tracked her down using location data and have since taken the child into care.

The mother is assessed by experts. Marilyn Tigas, head of the country's Department of Social Welfare and Development DSWD provincial office in Bataan, the Philippines, said that the images were taken while her son and his cousin were mimicking animals.

She said the images were taken and shared in 'jest' - but state officials are not amused.

Social welfare secretary Corazon Soliman said:

 "Even if it was made in jest, it was done in bad taste. The child does not know that it is just a joke. "No one has the right to treat a child like a toy. Whoever does this can be punished under the law.

I WOULD FIRST OF ALL EXPLAIN !!LOVE!!
LOVE: As cement holds blocks together so does love bond 2 people together. Love is a strong bond between two person who profess undying mutual affection for each other unconditionally, in a soul aim of attaining great future.

To throw more light.. love is the heart beat of all relationship, without the heart been present in the body, that body is refer to as a dead being.

Love is the soul of every relationship in other words relationship do not exist without love and were there is no love no trust.
Love makes every relationship possible. Because is only love that create that bond in any relationship such as family, friendship et el...
So any relationship without love should be consider as (infactuation)
A healthy love relationship can survive with the following in place.!!

Understanding
Social Acceptance
Trust
Care

Without this attribute in his/her relationship, that relationship may suffer setback. In most cases people neglect this concept because they think it is not neccesary but the truth is these attribute are only the solution to a happy relationship.
I will explain each of these attribute to enable you carry it along, in your relationship.

UNDERSTANDING:: we have to clearly capture this. That understanding really helps both partners to gain much trust in each other.
Understanding helps you to know what your partner likes and dislike it helps you to carry your partner along, because without understanding your relationship will just colaps, like a house built without solid foundation, understanding is foundation of every relationship.

TRUST:: AS I said earlier understanding gives birth to trust in your relationship. Trust is really like a breath in each relationship so you have to try to build trust in your relationship so you dont, experience 3RD party in your relationship.

SOCIAL ACCEPTANCE:: your relationship should be a type your parent and friends will 'accept so when some tough challenges come they will help to raise you and your partner up.

CARE:: this really matter in a relationship it preserve your relationship and beautifies it..
This words l belive will help build up a relationship

brocab:
Can you tell us what tithes are? And could you share with us' when and where did God tell you to pay tithes, either by word or voice, and what part in scripture does it say tithing is Money, to back up word or voice?
Because I am now confuse..

"Zeke1:
Yes he should pay his tithes from the song, because that is where he get his income from. And you can also read the book of malachi 3:10-11 and the book of prov 3:9, you will understand what tithes is."

Exactly, well spoken

thelish:
so for ur mind, u don answer d question

I Don answer am crystal clear

This post is about when you have knowledge about your friend’s significant other cheating on her.  I think it’s also worth my time to do a separate post about what to do when you find out it’s your friend who is doing the cheating. Way too many friendships end over both scenarios

You might expect a friendship advocate to champion “Always tell your girlfriend the truth! Our loyalty is to each other!” And while I agree with that second sentence– I don’t think the first sentence always leads to that result.

How we tell that truth is often what matters most.

Principles To Consider Before Confessing News that Could Ruin Her Life

Do you tell a girlfriend when her husband is cheating on her? Most women say they want to know… but how we do it can determine whether the friendship is protected.

Every friendship is different, every marriage is different, and every affair is different. There is no one answer to the question that will fit everyone, all the time. Some of us will have added complications if we also feel loyal to the person we know is cheating, if we all hang out together regularly as couples or families, if we know she’s had painful history with this subject, if she thinks her relationship is perfectly fine, if she’s pregnant or has young kids, or any other number of variations to why this is a very difficult question and answer.

Here are some things to consider before you tell her what you know about her husband or boyfriend that could devastate her.


First, Know that Your Burden Isn’t The Priority. 

Yes, it feels like the worst secret ever.  And you’re sick to your stomach with what you know. Unfortunately, that is not our biggest concern here. What you are feeling is nothing compared to what she will feel. Your feelings are big and scary, but if you’re thinking of confessing the truth so that you feel better– that is the worst reason to do so. Even if it is causing fights in your own marriage or keeping you up at night– that is not her fault. Vomiting the truth so that she hurts and you feel better is not friendship. Maturity means we learn to find our peace in the midst of painful situations.

So if you do tell her, don’t breathe a word about how it’s impacting you, what you would do in this situation, or how mad at him you are.  As much pain as you are in– don’t make this about you. This is her nightmare.

Women Know When They’re Ready to Know, Usually. 

I’ve talked to many women after they have found out that he was cheating on them and almost all of them had warning signs and red flags when they look back. We might act like we don’t know, for a while, because we’re not ready to face the truth, or because we’re not ready to have it called into question. So think long and hard about whether you think your friend doesn’t already know.

It’s usually more life changing for her to come to her own truth, than for us to force feed it to her.

So if you do tell her, start with the least amount of information you need to give. Being loyal to her doesn’t mean telling her everything you know, it means telling her enough so that she can try it on and make her best decisions. It’s usually best to tell her what you know with a little bit of doubt… allowing her to save face if she chooses denial a little longer.  You can know she’ll undoubtedly keep thinking about it.

You Need to Know that Most Women Stay. 

I think it’s worth reminding you that most women stay in marriages even after an affair.  And unless you’ve been there– you can’t judge it.

Sometimes there are higher values at stake, other needs being met, and alternative priorities that she chooses.  That is not a choice of weakness; to stay is hard and it takes tremendous strength. Supporting her means supporting her relationships, choices, decisions, and timing. Supporting her means accepting her no matter whether you approve.

So if you do tell her, then be sure you tell her that it’s okay if she stays, wants to try to work it out, and that you can still understand what she loves about him.You should feel no invested stake in what choice she makes, when she makes it, or how– that you will fully support her and journey with her any direction. And you’ll support her if she changes her mind down the road, too. Life is a journey, let her take hers.


Women Don’t Want to Have to Defend Their Family. 

Even when we know our mom is impossible– we don’t want someone else to say it.  Even when we know our children are trouble-makers– we don’t want everyone else to think less of them.  Even when our spouse makes us madder than mad– we don’t want our friends to not admire him.

In fact it’s common that most women will blame the “other woman” more than they will their own spouse– its how we react to people we love. Like a mama bear with her cubs, chances are high that she will defend him– it’s partly how she defends herself.

So if you do tell her, be very, very careful to still speak highly of him, to only share the bare minimum, and never speak poorly of him or their marriage. Even if she reacts with anger toward him– tell her you understand the feelings, but don’t agree with her or express your own opinion. What he did was a hurtful thing, but he is not a bad man.  Even if she leaves him eventually, she will heal better if people around her aren’t devaluing him or feeding her anger.


The Messenger Can Become the Threat. 

If she’s defending him (or herself since we all want to believe that we chose the perfect person, are worthy of their love, and have a great marriage!), that risks you being seen as the threat.  At her very healthiest she would be able to separate you from the message, but when we’re scared, we don’t always react rationally.

She may accuse you of lying, see it as evidence that you’ve never really supported her relationship with him, or simply be so ashamed she can’t face you anymore for what you come to represent to her.  If it comes out later she may not want to face you and feel the embarrassment of an “I told you so,” and if she decides to stay, she may feel like she can never talk about it with you.

So if you do tell her, know this distance is normal and a likely consequence of telling the truth. The best way to minimize this is by never placing yourself against him; rather just keep expressing how much you love her and will stick by her no matter what. Express deep regret for having to tell her, but simply tell her you would regret it more if she someday found out you knew and didn’t tell her.


Be Ready and Willing to Handle The Grief.  

If you’re not close enough to her to be someone who is ready to go through the grief cycle with her, you may not be close enough to her to tell her this news. She will likely need to grieve whether it ends her relationship or not; there is still some loss.

The stages of grief include denial, anger, bargaining, and depression– all of which she may take out on you. All of which are healthy and normal stages. Pray for the courage and tenacity to not take things personally.  So if you tell her,  you need to be committed to showing up in all those stages, reminding her how much you love her and support her. That might mean doing all the initiating for a while.

That might mean being her place to vent or her person to ignore.  No matter what she does– you just keep saying to her, “You have a right to be mad. I would be to.  That’s okay.  But I’m going to still be here no matter what.  You can yell at me, but I still love you.”  It means being ready to clean up the vomit that was spewed. Because that’s real loyalty.

You’ve been put in a tough place knowing this information.  But you can handle this choice.

Loyalty may mean protecting her from this news for now if you feel that’s the best option.   Loyalty can also mean helping her face her feelings, no matter how reactionary they are.

Korede isn't doing God a favour to pay his tithe, He Is doin it for himself. So that's personal problem to pay or not

Even if you are a Christian, love Jesus, and have the best intentions when it comes to marriage and relationships, it’s quite possible that you might make certain assumptions about marriage. IN FACT, the very fact that YOU have such great intentions is what can make you susceptible to these assumptions.

So why does it matter to talk about this or write about it? Because assumptions will lead to frustration.
Make no mistake. Christ as an anchor in a marriage is the best thing a marriage can have. It’s like having an entity there to check each person and hold each person to higher standards than society can. It’s awesome when done right but we often forget that we still have work to do.

Some of these may be a bit shocking, but have an open mind and seek Godly counsel to help break this down further if you need to. You can also post questions and thoughts in the comments section below.

1) If you start right, it’ll stay right:

Yes…this is a myth. Starting right is critical but staying right is a day to day thing. Have you ever had or heard of a teacher who says on the first day of class that “Everyone has an A-grade but the work comes in maintaining that grade”? It’s just like that even in Godly marriages.

I have never met or heard of a couple get married and say “I can’t wait to get a divorce” or “I can’t wait to grow apart”. Have you? Probably not. Every couple that grows apart or gets divorced didn’t start by looking forward to divorce.
Just because you started right… met at Bible study or on a mission’s trip, doesn’t guarantee marital success.

Find a married couple you can talk to, and ask them how quickly (and easily) a nice/normal day can turn into 48hrs of passive-aggressive toxicity and you’ll be shocked at what you hear if they really open up to you.

Now where does the Jesus factor come in? It comes in to play when in the midst of that toxicity, hurt or pain, Love can still find a way in.


2) The man is the head so the woman doesn’t need to be involved in critical decision making:

Men need to be especially careful about this. Just because a man is the head of the home doesn't mean a woman is somehow less intelligent or less capable of making great decisions and of leadership. If your marriage is going to work…if your wife is going to feel like she is not taken for granted, you need to create space for her to take the lead in some areas and some decisions. In fact, it will be highly beneficial for you.

This won’t make you less of a leader. It will simply make you a leader that is not threatened by his wife.

Ladies…this applies to you too. Don’t pick and choose when you are going to be an able life partner. Don’t get super-efficient  and solution driven when it comes to doing the things in your “woman world” but when it comes to high stakes decisions or changes at home that needs all hands /minds on deck, you gladly claim the “Men are the leaders” clause. If you do this, you won’t be helping to alleviate the pressure on him and when he sees that you are not interested, he will start making them without you.


3) If I’m too busy serving the Lord to be a good spouse, my spouse shouldn’t mind:

Yes he/she will…and so will God. God doesn’t give you a spouse as an experiment. You know…this is just one extra tool in your ministry…if you like it you can use it, if you don’t, you can put it to the side.

You want to know the other truth? Let me tell you. You see, sometimes it is simply easier to bury yourself in “work/ministry” than to work out what needs to be worked out in your life.

And this is not a male thing as many assume. There are many women who will bury themselves in cooking and cleaning and the popular one….THE KIDS, and play victim rather than face their own impatience, selfishness, tongue of fire, or defensive spirit


4) My Christian spouse won’t hurt me:

As Tamar Braxton would say, “Lies you Tell!” Look. Just because someone is a Christian…just because someone cares deeply about you, doesn’t mean they can’t or won’t hurt you. Even when they have the best intentions, hurt is still very possible. The intensity, length and damage may be less because they are a Christian, but it doesn’t mean the relationship is hurt proof.

The truth is that when two people care about each other, they usually DON’T INTEND to hurt each other and so that means when we hurt each other even in a Christian marriage, its mostly UNINTENTIONAL…and since its unintentional, the intensity of hurt is usually not determined by the causer…but by the receiver of the hurt!!! In other words, it is quite possible that we ourselves…not the instigator, are the causes of our pain simply by how we process this unintentional event of hurt.

If you have a spirit of offense for example, or if you carry unhealed pain, you will be hurt more often and with more intensity. Part of your prayer has to be that God should take away that spirit of offense.

5) I am a good person…so I can tolerate my spouse:

You have something else coming. First of all, the Bible makes it clear to us over and over again… in the falls of great people, and in explicit verses like Rom 3:10 that says “As it is written: There is no one righteous, not even one” and ones like Rom 3:23 that says “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God”


You are not inherently good by God’s standards. None of us are and marriage is going to prove it to you. If you think your goodness, patience, tolerance and whatever else is going to cut it to love another human being the way that their creator wants them to be loved, you are lying to yourself and you will be frustrated.

6[b]) I love my husband and the Lord and so submitting to him should be easy[/b]

Did Peter not love Christ? Did Moses not love God? What about Judas? Or Jonah? They all loved God and yet at times even critical times, they found it hard to submit to Him. Do you love God more than these people?

Submission and obedience does not come automatically with love. It SHOULD but it doesn’t. (Especially the way that we in this generation have been raised to see love). It is a separate ability that God needs to work in you as a woman today.

A note to Men: Submission isn’t always immediate even in a Godly marriage. It’s something that God has to build in your wife THROUGH YOUR EXAMPLE AS YOU SUBMIT TO GOD AND TO HER. #NUFFSAID #LeadByExample


7) I love my wife and the Lord so loving her like Christ loved the church should be easy:

Men…loving your wife is one thing…but God wants you to love her like Christ loved the church. MONUMENTAL difference. Loving your wife is easy…who wouldn’t love a woman that loves him? But to love her like Christ loves the church? When she does things that defies logic? When she says those words that pierce you in the heart, when she “suddenly remembers and claims the weaker vessel clause”. Praying for her when she has hurt you. Keeping cool when her attitude stinks…being a mediator for her with God even when she gets a Master’s degree in nagging? Even Moses couldn’t handle it. You know why?

BECAUSE IT TAKES THE SPIRT OF GOD
You know why this isn’t easy for many of us? Because:

We are both strong believers so it’s safe to assume we are on the same page about important issues:

This will get you and your spouse frustrated. OFTEN. Why? Because we are all at different levels of our faith development with God…because while we may believe the same things, we may VALUE them  differently…because one person may have had personal revelation about something that the other person is yet to get…because we have different life experiences…because of a million other reasons.

NEVER assume that your mutual belief in God is a guarantee for effective communication. Christ provides a framework, but YOU have to communicate.


The bible doesn’t say “Can two walk together unless they are Christians”. It says “Can two walk together unless they AGREE” (Amos 3:3)


9) I am bringing a lot to the table:

NO you are not. Let me share what I have learnt about a Godly marriage.

So either your patience is serving your spouse or it means nothing…either your intelligence is serving your spouse or it means nothing.

People talk about how they are “bringing something” to the table as if it were something to bargain with” whereas, Christ brought ALL of his Love/Glory/Blamelessness etc to the table and wasn’t even sure if anyone would recognize it.

10) We are both Christians…so forgiveness will always be easy:

Nothing could be farther from the truth. Not that a relationship with Christ shouldn’t make it easier, but forgiveness becomes hard for us because the very assumption that it should come easy, makes us take each other for granted.

We become less protective of the other persons emotions, needs, and heart. We hurt our spouse, mumble an “I am sorry” and then wonder why they aren’t “chippy-happy-go-lucky” right away. We forget that we are to be protectors of our spouse’s hearts. We forget that when they are in pain, our job is to heal.

Here is the scarier thing: Married people will tell you that when it comes to pain and hurt, marriage can produce both extremes. Meaning, when you get married, no one can make you happier than your spouse if they put some effort into it; but no one can hurt you like your spouse either. Why? Because your spouse has unprecedented access to you. That’s why they can make you so happy…and that’s why sometimes…even when they don’t mean to, they can hurt you deeply.


Forgiveness in marriage is not automatic and is not always super easy…because when our spouses hurt us, it can go deeper than normal. That said, Christ as the center of a home …as the mediator of a home, makes it soooo much easier.


It is not the “status” of “Christian” that makes forgiveness easier in marriage. It is the remembrance of the fact that Christ gave all when we ourselves didn’t deserve it, that He loved us before we knew Him…and remembering that we must strive to be like Him that gives us the grace to forgive.


So how do we make it easier for forgiveness to flow in marriage? We heal the pain first, then fix the person. Sure our spouse may have been the cause of their own pain…sure they may have taken something out of context that we didn’t mean…sure they may be behaving negatively towards us when we don’t deserve…but our first job is to heal…THEN fix. That’s what Jesus did- in the storm…healing the sick and so many times. When people were in pain, He healed first. He solved first and then fixed them.


11) We love each other so Sex will be frequent and fulfilling.


Here is the reality. Two people can love each other and still not be sexually fulfilled in marriage. Sexual fulfillment requires a deeper understanding of the sexual and emotional needs of each other, and that takes work.  It will take opening up. It will take BOTH of you talking about your needs. It will take wives not assuming that men have sex all figured out and it will take men remembering that other things do for women what sex does for the man.

It will take for the man not operating under pressure to “perform”. It will require wives transitioning from “shielding their bodies against men” to “feeling safe to enjoy and explore sex”. It will take wives not leaving the sexual pursuit to men and it will take men caring about what she gets out of it too.

All these don’t have to be issues in your marriage if you have realistic expectations and especially if you go through good Godly marital counseling, if you find married couples who are willing to be open with you, if you yourselves are willing to be open… and if you make sure you are not depending on the stamp of Christianity to do YOUR HOME WORK for you.

jworos:
Nobody is perfect... i bet ur bf has one of d listed qualities!

Lol.... No he doesn't n if u av one of those behaviours u shd wok on ur self

So many people are single and searching while others in a relationship dont last a second. Sometimes its the choice of lady or the choice of guys. Yesterday I discussed on the types of girls/ladies men avoid. Now am going to outline guys women should avoid in other to make good choices.

Ever met an amazing guy only to realize a few days later he’s a little on the weird side? Or even worse, he’s a full-out psycho in a normal man’s body? It happens to the best of us. Read on to find out which types of guys to avoid at all costs.

Types of guys to avoid #1

The Stalker


He plays it cool at first, but develops an obsession within days and is soon calling, texting and e-mailing you several times a day; he always wants to know where you are, what you are doing and who you’re with, and tends to call over and over again if you don’t answer the first time.


The remedy: Tell him you’re not ready for anything serious and like to keep your time (and your freedom!) to yourself. If he doesn’t get the hint, ignore his calls and cut off all communication.


Types of guys to avoid #2

The Liar


His stories never add up, his facts are always off, and his personality seems too good to be true? It probably is. Men like this like to get attention by making up grandiose tales to tell their friends and using white lies to cover up any little indiscretion. They know they’re liars, and they don’t care; either they think it’s okay, or they figure they’ve gotten this far without being honest, why start now?


The remedy: Tell him the truth; you feel like you never know if he’s lying or not, and that guessing games are not your thing.


Types of guys to avoid #3

The Raging Alcoholic


You’re scared to go for drinks with him because he can never stop after one or two; he usually doesn’t remember what happened the night before; every time you hang out, alcohol is involved in some capacity. After a few drinks, he’s ready to fight anyone that walks by him.


The remedy: Tell him you’re worried about him and his partying ways, and see if he wants to spend some quiet nights at home or go on some daytime dates. If not, quit.


Types of guys to avoid #4

The Insulter


This guy probably got a lot of attention in high school by treating girls badly, and he thinks he’s still got game. He’s constantly putting you, his friends, and everyone else who happens to be within earshot down. This makes him feel big and powerful.


The remedy: Tell him you’re not just any girl and that you deserve better. It’s time to move on!


Types of guys to avoid #5

The Sports Fanatic


He’s always watching the game, whether it’s hockey, football, soccer, or baseball; boy’s night is every night because there are constantly men, beer and sports TV at his house; he belongs to 23 different pools; his idea of a date is going to the corner pub and watching the game. A friend narrated to me how her ordeal. She and her boyfriend were making out then Chelsea football came on live. The guy just stop in the middle of the action to watch the match. When then inquired of him what the problem was and he replied his football is more important to him. Well that's the height.


The remedy: Tell him there’s more to life for you than sports, and that you need to get out there and experience it; if he wants to join you, he’ll have to turn that TV off for a while or else quit.


Types of guys to avoid #6

The Pretty Boy


He spends more time in front of the mirror than you do, and we’re not talking minutes, we’re talking hours. He looks at his reflection in every store window you walk by, and excuses himself several times to go check his hair. This guy is high-maintenance; you find yourself sitting on the couch waiting for him to get ready. That could be a gay signal.. We will discuss more on that.


The remedy: Tell him he spends way too much time on his looks and not enough focusing on what’s important – like you.


Types of guys to avoid #7

The Party Animal


A well-known cousin of the raging alcoholic, the party animal is always looking for the next bash to crash. He always knows about every party, and makes an appearance at all of them – no matter what. Even at 5 a.m. when you want to get him into bed, he’s on the prowl for a wild time.


The remedy: See if he’s down for some quiet time. If that’s not on his agenda, pencil yourself out.


Types of guys to avoid #8


The Playboy


This guy always has a different girl in his passenger seat, and they’re all his “cousins”; he’s always texting and his phone rings off the hook; he knows how to charm the pants off of anyone; he doesn’t always answer his phone, and makes up silly excuses when he doesn’t.


The remedy: If you really like him, beat him at his own game; start seeing other guys and hanging out with your guy friends and see how he feels. If he keeps it up, say goodbye.


Types of guys to avoid #9


The Sex Friend


The sex fiend has a one-track mind. All he thinks about is sex, how to get it, and how to relate everything to it; he’s constantly making inappropriate comments, no matter who’s around; he always makes stupid jokes about sex; his friends even call him “horndawg”.


The remedy: Try to find out what his other interests are. If he has none, tell him to go find it elsewhere.


Types of guys to avoid #10


The Woman Beater

This is the worst out of the rest in my own opinion. When he's discussing and mentions a girl that offended him, he will say stuffs like "if I had known I would have beat her up" "if I slap her with one hand she will faint" or says stuffs like "I will slap you" and even actually slaps or/and beats you. After he feels so terrible sorry and very very apologetic.


The remedy

Girlfriends you not just quit, take to your heels and run away. But if he has really hit you but you but makes comments about hitting ladies you should tell him he needs to see a counsellor, if he resist well, then call a quit.


Types of guys to avoid #11


The Rapist


Yes, I said so rapist. I have encountered several of them. On the first outing they kissing you forcefully. They don't care whether you are actually carried away by emotions they assume you should. Forcefully still want to kiss you.


The remedy

Don't succumb to that, no. Talk to him there and then that you don't like that. If he trys it a second time please just take a U turn. (As for there's no 2nd outing). It will shock you married women get constantly raped by their husbands and they can't say anything about it. Be wise when its not too late.


Types of guys to avoid #12


The Mama's Boy

Lol.. This guys can't make a complete sentence without adding their "my mom" "my mom said I should take fanta" " my mom said I shouldn't go out today" "my mom said I should wear pyjamas to sleep" my mom said this and that... Wow.

A friend of mine was engaged to a particular guy. The guy happens to be Anglican and the Lady catholic.


The lady and the guy had arranged that their wedding would take place in her church and the guy agreed. (Besides there's no big deal there you marry a lady in her church and take her to your own church).  When finally arrangements were being made the guy said no his mom says the wedding should be in his own church... This was at the dire minute. If she had realised earlier this guy is a mama's boy they won't have come this far, they had to break up the engagement. Probably if they got married his mom would ran his home, mom might even detect to him when to have sex...


The remedy

Address this issue from the very start, if he doesn't stop walk away while its not too late.

I was listening to an OAP, she said when you go out most people that go out with their partners don't talk. The girl is either chatting and the would be having his drink. At some point gist just finish, yea right...but to have a bonding relationship at no point could conversations seize... For real

Happy conversations are the difference between a happy relationship and a boring one. Conversations can help both of you understand each other better, and help both of you bond better. No matter how long you’ve been in a relationship, it’s always communication that brings two lovers closer together, and leads to better understanding.

Topics to talk about in a relationship

When you’re in a relationship, it’s easy for the right topics to talk about to slip right past your fingers. If you’re in a new relationship, both of you may have so many questions to ask each other.


But the fear of sounding rude or getting too personal may leave a lot of empty space in a conversation.

And if you’re in a seasoned relationship, both of you may be so accustomed to each other that silence may seem perfectly normal. But every now and then, you do need to bring the excitement and life into a relationship by talking about the right things.


Interesting topics to talk about

#1 Plans for the weekend. Talk about your weekend plans together even if it’s still Monday evening. It’s exciting and fun, and it’ll give both of you something to look forward to after a long week of work.
By having something to look forward to, it’ll even help both of you get through the week with enthusiasm because you know you have a good weekend coming up.

#2 Compliments. Talk about the things you like or admire about your partner. Let them know just how much you appreciate them, be it about their personality or about something they did the earlier week.


#3 Daily worries. ‘So what’s been worrying you lately?’ sounds so simple, but yet, it’s something that can make your partner feel grateful and cared for. Even if they have no worries, just knowing that you care would make them feel good about being in the relationship.

#4 Work. There’s always something to talk about work, be it a new project or a bad boss. By talking about each other’s work life, it’ll help both of you understand each other’s professional sides and ethics better.

#5 The little secrets. Secrets are always fun to talk about. You can talk about secrets as a game where each of you have to take turns to reveal one new secret. It’ll be a lot of fun, and both of you can get to know each other more intimately.


#6 Movies and TV shows. There’s always something new and fun every week when it comes to movies and shows. Talk about each other’s favorite shows or the movies both of you are excited to watch.


#7 Food and restaurants. Even if your lover isn’t passionate about cooking, they’d at least appreciate good food. Talk about new restaurants or places both of you should visit over the weekend or on a special day. It’ll give both of you a chance to explore cuisines together and also make dinner plans for the weeks to come.

#8 Personal dreams. Talk about your dreams with your partner. Tell them what you intend to do or what your visions and dreams are. It’ll make for great conversations, and help your partner get to know your personal side better.

#9 Vacations. Plan your vacations or weekend getaways weeks or even months earlier. Vacations are almost always the highlight of an entire calendar year, so even dreamily planning it ahead of time can get both of you excited.


#10 Hobbies and personal interests. What do you enjoy doing in your own private time? Share your thoughts with your lover. Chances are, your partner too may have a few hobbies that you like.


#11 Friends. It’s always good to know more about each other’s friends. It’s a step closer to learning more about your partner’s life and what they do, especially when you aren’t around.

#12 Proud moments. Ask your boyfriend or girlfriend to tell you about the moments in life when they’ve felt really proud of their own achievements. Memorable moments and childhood memories always provide for hours of fun, hilarious conversations.

#13 Offer help. Ask your partner if you could help them with something, even if it’s as silly as a chore. Working together on tasks always brings two people closer. And it’ll always make your partner feel grateful for having you around.

#14 Five year plans. If you’ve been dating for a while, talk about where you see yourself five years from now as a couple. Having shared goals always makes the relationship stronger and gives both of you something to work towards.


#15 Self improvement. When you talk about your own flaws and where you’d like to improve, it helps your partner feel more relaxed and comfortable, and they’d break down their own high walls and talk about their vulnerabilities too.

#16 Families. Talking about each other’s families gives hours of interesting details and gossip. And it also helps make first introductions and spending time with family more fun.

#17 Problems in the bedroom. Never push problems in the bedroom under the carpet. At some point, they’ll always come back to haunt both of you. If you aren’t able to perform or don’t feel like having sex all of a sudden, talk about it so both of you can overcome any issues together.

#18 Sex talk. For a relationship to be successful, sexual intimacy is as important as romantic gestures. Talk about your sexually sensitive spots and erogenous zones, positions you like or want to try, your secret sexual fantasies and whatever it is that turns you on in bed. It’ll be exciting and revealing at the same time.


#19 Wellbeing and wellness. While health issues may not be easy to talk about, it’s still a great way to get to know each other and enhance each other’s lives.

#20 Advice. Communication isn’t always about getting to know more about each other. Every now and then, offer advice and share your suggestions on what your lover could do to improve their life or their work.

#21 Your past. The past is always exciting and fun to talk about. You don’t need to talk about past relationships or your sexual details if that makes you feel uncomfortable. But talk about your childhood, your young dreams and all the little things that make you who you are.

#22 The future. What do you want to do with your life? This topic can make for intellectual conversations that can help you get to know your partner’s view about life and the pursuits that matter to them.


#23 Preferences. Sometimes, it’s the little things that can give both of you hours of fun conversations. Talk about each other’s likes and dislikes. After all, preferences always change with time, and the more you know about your partner’s present preference, the better you’d know them.

#24 Shared goals. Plan shared goals together. It could be about painting a wall, running a marathon the next year or just about anything else. When you plan things or try something new together, it brings both of you closer.

#25 Personal opinions. If you truly love each other, don’t hold your thoughts back if you want to share what’s on your mind with your lover. It doesn’t matter if it’s a suggestion or a warning, if you feel it, say it. Your partner will feel good to know that you’re always looking out for them no matter what. It always feels good, doesn’t it, when you know that you have a special someone who cares so much about you?

I didn't make dis up, its true.. If u schooled in a military school u will Knw how militaries behave, if you are following trends you will Knw Jonathan is angry at traitors... If your close enuf u will also hear the gist...u can eida take it or leave it... Caio

Well well well, this the point where I officially say I like Gen. Buhari. It all started when Former IGP and other para military heads went to pay a courtesy visit to Gen Buhari. From inside source Former IGP was the first to step in to greet Gen Buhari.

As he greeted him he added saying that he now pledges full alliance to Gen Buhari and that what ever Buhari wants he's ready to do his bidding.

This where the drama then started... Gen. Buhari picked up his phone there and then in front of him and called his favorite pal Pres. Good luck Jonathan and told him exactly what the former IGP told him and added that he is even in front of him.

After these happen according to my source, the other para military heads that came with him fled, infact some forgot their phones. Then after Pres. Goodluck Jonathan Did the needful, sack the traitor...

Ghen Ghen Sai Buhari, One down if you have corrupt ish he's coming for you...

Good article...

No doubt white is the trending color for the season, but many don't try it cause its daring... Here are some ways you can rock white confidently

1. Avoid too much accessories as the white color is bright and catchy. Jeweries can drag attention and make you look too dressy but if you choice to wear bold jewelry stick to yellow gold.

2. Tone down white with cool color such as army green, mint green, gray, chocolate brown etc

3. Preferably to be on the safer side rock a white trousers or skirt with a top with a white theme blouse, top or shirt, see below

4. Stick to nude color accessories to avoid less competition with the white dress or outfit like the photos below...

njokusboy:


Sharap, you blockhead, were you a man in ur former life? You have never being a man so don't open your mouth and talk about how a man reasons...
The man is not a stay at home dad, he resigned because he wanted to bond with his child, his wife wasn't a stay at home wife either, prior to his resignation, there must have been some arrangements as to how domestic chores were shared, if he decides that he wants to take up more responsibilities, he is free to do so... You pple don't get to suggest it....He didn't resign because there was too much work to do at home... simple..

Very well spoken

Arewa Youth Parliament endorsed Senate Minority Leader, Senator George Akume to be the President of the Senate in the 8th National Assembly.

I happen to have attended this event yesterday in abuja while they were going on and on..

I got to ask some of the youths why should really should he be the next senate president... I was told he has no concrete trace of corruption...hmm in this nigeria. So I would take it upon myself to find out how true it is. 

Read what their leader, Maru said, 

“It is a democratic norm in advanced democracies that when a minority party becomes the majority, following successful elections, the Minority Leader automatically becomes the leader of the parliament in question.

“It is a known fact that Senator George Akume is a third-term senator, who has distinguished himself as Pan-Arewa, detribalised Nigerian with impeccable track records and antecedents. For someone who led the opposition in the Senate for four years without any form of controversy or sycophancy, we are confident that he will lead the country’s upper legislative chamber successfully as the president. 

“We, hereby endorse distinguished Senator George Akume as the next President of the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. He is a genuine breed of Sir Ahmadu Bello (Sardauna of Sokoto) school of thought, always putting the interest of the people first, above any other consideration. He is a man of goodwill, courage and strength of character,” Rt. Hon. Maru added.

If you know more about him also share your views, so some group of youths won't trigger putting someone in a position for personal interest...

Like Beyonce, Fans Blast guy who Calls Genevieve Nnaji "Old Cargo... She Should go get her Husband": SEE

It all started when Genevieve posted the photo of MUD CEO in her dressing on her instagram account.. Then some guy said

"you are posting another woman wedding u won't go and get your own husband..old cargo" see below...

A man has explained his decision behind quitting his high-powered, high-paying, technology gig to be a stay-at-home dad.

Anand Iyer, now three months in, tells Yahoo Parenting it’s the best investment he’s ever made..The 34-year-old's wife Shreya, 36, became the primary breadwinner with her job managing recruiting for Splunk, a technology company that does data analytics. 

“Like all working parents who often struggle to balance career and family, the San Francisco tech guru had just endured one too many nights of rushing home only to find his 2-year-old daughter, Ava, already asleep. He was missing too much and “felt terrible,”

“I wasn’t spending any time with her in the evening,” says Iyer, noting that one conversation with a fellow father really got him thinking. “We started talking about how hard this was, being a working parent. My friend said, ‘My son is 2 months old and I haven’t bonded with him yet.’ And I felt the same way. I started to ask myself, ‘What am I working so hard for? Why are we trying to make our lives so great but aren’t investing in time with our child?’”

So on January 23, the former Microsoft product manager, then chief product officer at Threadflip, walked into his boss’ office and quit. To his surprise, Iyer tells Yahoo Parenting, his boss applauded him for it.

He told me, 

‘I totally get it,My boss said, ‘You have to realize who you’re working for.’ His words, not mine. He was very understanding. It actually wasn’t a tough talk at all.” Colleagues followed suit.“I’ve had occasional sleepless nights over our finances, “But the reality is that I’m fortunate that I’ve been working nonstop for a long time so it wasn’t as difficult a transition for us financially as it could have been. 

Instead of hurrying off to get to work each morning, “I look forward to getting up every morning and feeding Ava,” he says. “And when I first read that study about fathers being more happy the more time they spend with their kids, I was like, ‘That’s totally right.’ I feel magnificent. This experience has been so rewarding and I can see that Ava is benefitting from it.”

In Nigeria, how many fathers can do this?

Its been learnt that Doyin Okupe mismanaged millions Jonathan gave to him for his campaign and Pres. Jonathan is after him (read here if you missed that)... Now he has turn around to bite the finger that fed him... Read what the presidential Spokesperson shared this morning on his Facebook page below...


"One of the reasons the Chibok girls were kidnapped was to present Jonathan's administration as incompetent and hold it to ransom against 2015 elections. 

"One of the reasons the BBOG was formed was to sustain and internationalise the embarrassment. One of the reasons President Jonathan lost the election was a national and international conspiracy predicated on this carefully choreographed and assiduously sustained perception. 

"One of the issues that will be in the hand over notes will be the missing girls. 
What is reasonable and expedient for well meaning men and women of good conscience is to dialogue with the incoming administration on what best new approach to employ to find and rescue the chibok girls.

Not much can be achieved, except mischief, by continuing to flog this administration on this matter.
I REST MY CASE."

Hmmm , Buhari's government better stayed away from this type, to avoid repetition... I REST MY CASE

prettyjo:
my chest is already paining me

Are u serious?

PapiWata:


Engine failure too is not something that only occurs in Nigeria. It is a scenario for which all pilots train on simulators at regular intervals. If you feel dissatisfied with the maintenance culture of Nigerian airlines, then you have a valid point that there is much room for improvement, however, making reference to an engine failure as evidence of incompetence on the part of the pilot is unfair to the pilot, since he or she is NOT a part of the maintenance crew for the airline.

Seriously, are u not reading well, I started by saying the aviation ministry needs to sit up, if for anyfin the pilot did well... But I blame the aviation ministry for even allowing that plane fly... For that engine to shut down in the air, something already went wrong which they ignored...

PapiWata:


Bird strikes are a worldwide phenomenon, and are certainly NOT limited to African airspace. Rather than whining and complaining about the "rough" landing performed by your pilot in that emergency, you should be offering grateful praise to the captain for performing a successful single-engine landing, after having a bird impact disable one engine so close to the ground. Things could have turned out MUCH worse, so again, count your lucky stars.

Read up about "The Miracle on the Hudson", when Captain "Sully" Sullenberger's Airbus A320 airliner sustained multiple bird strikes moments after takeoff, shutting down BOTH engines below 3000 feet altitude, and yet who managed to land his stricken airliner on the freezing waters of the Hudson River, just off the Manhattan shoreline, with NO injuries or fatalities recorded.

The pilot later said no bird entered the engine, but one engine has spoil. Looking our skies here we don't have big birds that fly apart from vultures arnd death animals and cattle rearers(commonly known as Lekeleke) is found around cows n cattles.
Read well before giving your analogy. If you actually enter planes esp d ones I mention you will know dey are in a terrible state and they are not suppose to be in the air. We shd put our voices together to have the aviation ministry shut down airlines that have not met up to expectations... Next time they might not be solo lucky... I put this post on fb n does who were on the airline came forward n narrated how terrible it was...

This doll is a subject of nightmares and everyone who has stared at it suffers chest pains, nausea and crippling headaches' 

A paranormal investigator has claimed scores of people around the world have taken ill after seeing pictures or videos of a 'possessed' doll. 

Jayne Harris says she was sent 'Peggy' by a previous owner who was convinced the doll was to blame for a series of terrifying nightmares. Peggy said:

“She’d wake feeling hot and shaken. No matter where she moved the doll to in her home, the nightmares persisted. She apparently sought the help of a local priest but two visits later and there was no change. In September she became quite ill with a fever and begansuffering hallucinations. When she recovered, she saw no other option but to get rid of the doll as she was convinced it was at the centre of all that had been happening.”

Jayne claims to have received reports from dozens of people with bad reactions to seeing pictures orvideo footage of the doll. 

“If I had to guess, I'd say close to 80 people have came forward with experiences,” said Jayne, who has been studying spirit attachment since the death of her cousin Kelly in 2000. “Some are small, like computer screens freezing, sharp headaches or a sense of dread, but others are more disturbing," she continued. 
“One lady said that when she opened a photograph of Peggy, her computer froze on thepicture and the room went cold."

“She then said she felt someone in the room with her and could hear them moving around,She was messaging me at the time via Facebook asking me to quickly advise her on what to do.I took Peggy down into an isolation area and requested that she cease her tormenting. Apparently everything returned to normal. 

“Another lady yesterday said she had been experiencing light bulbs blowing and a presence in her home after she had been speaking about Peggy.“With Peggy, it's not only while people are looking at her or watching her, it seems to be afterwards too.”

Let me know if you feel different after looking at it, I already had headache before seeing this article so I won't know

Our aviation industry has got to sit up.. On friday last week there was almost a plane crash. Aero contractors going from Abuja to Uyo. As the flight took off, 2mins in the air the flight started descending slantingly.

The pilot then manage to navigate and turn back torwards the airport(abuja airport). Meanwhile passengers were already complaining and scared.. The pilot said bird flew into the engine...

Then they manage to land (very rough landing) on landing the pilot then told the truth that one engine had spoil (no bird entered the engine), thats why they could not continue the trip. The question now is what if that engine got bad like 30mins in the air, what would have happen... Lives would have been lost, we would have been crying...

When you enter planes in nigeria its like brt bus (dos bad ones in lagos). D plane will be making all sort of noise, inside of it is hot... I rotate the AC nob Left and right center ... nofin comes out.... Especially Arik and Aero Contractors...

The other day Arik sold more tickets than seats so people were standing in the plane.. Haba.. Join me in using this medium to call on aviation regulators to look into the torn and worn down state of planes that are still flying... Is it until people that before they will sit up...

Yesterday airport workers went on strike because of old, epileptic navigation equipment in the Tower... Haba.. Now if crash shd happen now how will dey know d point d plane went down so dey go n look for survivors...

Nigerians are human beings not goats or cows, we deserve to be protected by the very GOVERNMENT we put in place.

Scolding Doesnt work anymore. Laptops takes d blow instead..

When you go to a traditional marriage you see girls trying to outshine the other. Some get too noisy about it which is generally termed as "bizy body" and ofcourse what do you expect, every babe is trying to grab a man... Lol that's how it suppose to be. Well let's delve straight to the points. To effortlessly stand out in a traditional marriage, you should have this key pieces on you.

1). Collar/ Statement Necklace: it makes your outfit look complete. It feels in the gaps on the neck and adds more sheer and details to a plain outfit

2). Asoebi: nice!!!, it gives a sense of belonging to the celebrant. A guy will wanna pick on a girl he can get more information from the celebrant after the ceremony. It also makes photos beautiful, we all know photos preserve memories.


3). Gele: it gives this complete Nigeria chick look. Native with out a well tied held is like a guy wearing a very nice suit with tie and flip flop. Gele gives this stunning goddess look.


4). Highlight and Contoured Makeup: on your regular days out you can skip this but on a traditional marriage you shouldn't. It defines your face structure. It makes the Gele look cuter. Simple tip in contouring is shimmery bronzer at the apex of your nose and a little darker concealer at the side of your cheek. You can see the pictorial illustration below...


5). Statement high heel Shoes:  Shoes are just everything, my favourite. It picks you up and places you high amongst kings and Queens. It gives you a look of a model. Your choice of shoes should be the one your most comfortable in. Go for the one that has extra layer to give you balance.

Last and not the least is Confidence, you need to carry this baby everywhere you go, not just traditional marriage

6). Confidence: you need to be confident on your own. You don't need to be all clingy around your girl friends to feel among. Whether you make a mistake or not, whether you slip while walking or you make a mistake while speaking, gracefully accept your mistake and confidently correct yourself.

There you have it, how to attract the most attention or steal the spotlight in a traditional marriage ceremony.

Blood of God, tins are really happening ooo. Micha Stunz 45, who  resides in Berlin. When it comes to sex, the silicone implants provide no physical pleasure boost, and any erection he gets happens “inside” of his massive foreskin. As such, it isn’t visible with the naked eye, and obviously his body modification makes sex more difficult (though not impossible). He prefers to pee sitting down, as he attracts strange looks when he uses urinals.


He said the whole thing started 20 years ago when he got a penis pump as a present. He was way too curious not to try it out. First, he tried it secretly. But then it happened that he went out pumped up. And he realized that it was a good feeling. The next step for him was saline injections, injecting a sterile, isotonic sodium chloride solution. Over the course of a few years, he had silicone injected into both his penis and scrotum.

When asked how it affects his sex life, he said:

“After you reach a certain size, you can’t do certain things any more. At least not with everyone and not without some pre-intimacy. But there are other things you can do with it. You just have to free yourself from established roles and hardened ideas about sex and be ready to play. I’ve been told that my penis looks like an ass or a mouth from the front.”
