Hmm, irigel Tribe should henceforth sleep with one eye or take off now. My little advice.

Irigwe...

xpac01:
It all depends on individuals. I am 32 and still living in my parent's house. An employed graduate. I travel out a lot from town for a one job or the other. So no need paying for a house I won't stay more than six days in a month.

So, every one is cut out for different cases.

Exactly!!

MyVILLAGEpeople:
This is sad and pathetic. Who else noticed that beautiful police officer in action, in one of those pictures??

I did..well equipped also. I am not sure I have ever seen a police woman looking so smart and tough like that here in Naija

AndLeo:
Most beautiful girls lack the wisdom and humility to sustain a relationship. They are full of pride, arrogance and selfishness.

Spot on....pride is the major one I tell you....

Stuff like this makes me wanna cry ......look at those innocent kids...good gesture by Ozil

magicminister:
Parents have to understand that nobody else can give their child a shot in life. While the actions of the “madam” are foul, the girl’s parent are not blameless.

Can anyone help me with there contact of the man or person that found this girl?

Let’s help her and teach the evil woman a little lesson she wouldn’t forget!

I like this ...

SIGNIFICANCE OF WOMEN’S DAY

Women’s Day is celebrated throughout the globe on 8th March every year. Celebrating Women’s Day is an opportunity to appreciate the remarkable contribution of women to our society. Read on to find more about the International Women’s Day celebration.


‘Woman‘ – is a word that conjures up a lot of images in our minds and brings out varied emotions as selfless love, nurturing and caring attitude. Who is a woman? The dictionary meaning of a woman is adult female human but this definition cannot do justice to the role of woman. A woman is much more than these words. Read on to find more about the significance of Women’s Day celebration.


Understanding a Woman.


“A woman is a full circle. Within her is the power to create, nurture and transform.” Understanding a woman is a mystery and it needs lots of perseverance and knowledge. A woman is the epitome of love, sacrifice, care and ability to nurture life.

The quality of a woman can be understood with these thoughts “If a woman has to choose between catching a fly ball and saving an infant’s life, she will choose to save the infant’s life without even considering there are men at the base.” Such is the power of a woman.

The ability to nurture life makes woman the most powerful and strongest being. She can play different roles with ease be it that of a dutiful wife, obedient daughter, caring mother or adoring sister.


Women Down the Ages VS Women Now

Women down the ages were not given their due respects yet they went on without complaints. Women since time immemorial had powers to bring a change. Women fought with all odds to emerge as a winner. History is replete with examples of courageous women like Lakshmibai, Indira Gandhi, Hellen Keller and so on.



Women now are more empowered and aware of their rights and the society has accepted their stand. The society is changing and paving way for the growth of the women. The changes can be seen in the fields of education, healthcare, equality and job opportunity. The new decade has seen a marked change in attitude towards women at large. Women have made strides in every field like politics, space exploration.


Relevance of Women’s Day Celebration

The International Women’s Day is celebrated on 8th March all over the world. This is not just another day but it is a day to appreciate and give respect to all the women who are the essence of our lives. This day is a day to honour the life, grit and determination of women. These words of Charles Malik, former President of United Nations General Assembly aptly sum up the role of women “The fastest way to change society is to mobilise women of the world.” Legislations are made so that women get equal opportunities.


Need for Women’s Day Celebration

This day is the need for the hour as it is a time for introspection. This day has been recognised by United Nations General Assembly as a means of recognizing the contribution of women to the society. There is now increased participation of women in different areas such as policy making. Women have showed that if not superior; they are equal to men in all fields and taking tough decisions.



Women’s Day Celebrations

Many countries have declared 8th March as official holiday and some countries have declared it as holiday for women. Men show love and respect to the women in their lives on this day. Thousands of events are held all over the world on Women’s Day. It is a day to inspire women and promote the cause of social equality.

In India women’s organizations, NGO’s take part in women’s Day celebration by staging plays, organising seminars, giving awards to women achievers.

PURITY - THE PATH TO ETERNITY

Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

Brethren, the Lord demands that you live a life of purity. A life of total consecration to HIM.

To fulfill destiny - GOD's purpose for you on earth, you must live a life of purity. You must be pure in the open and in the secret.

To be pure means to be free or devoid of sin and iniquity.

Proverbs 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

- The Word of GOD
Your heart is central to purity. What are your thoughts? Your thought determines your action. To live a life of purity, you must renew your mind with the Word of GOD on a daily basis. When you are idle in your secret place, What do you do? What do you think of?

Don't be idle, read the Word of GOD, a saying goes thus, " an idle mind is devil's workshop". Instead of staying idle, read, study and meditate on the Word of GOD.
Guide your heart with the Word of GOD.

- Taking GOD as your priority
Daniel 1:8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
Genesis 39:9 There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

Daniel and Joseph fulfilled destiny because they decided to be undefiled. They took GOD as utmost priority in their lives. The moment you begin to think of pleasing yourself and not GOD, then you are very much likely to fall - sin.

Is GOD your utmost priority?

Who are you in the secret?

Genesis 39:11 And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within.
39:12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.

Only those who are pure are precious in GOD's sight because GOD hates iniquity and sin.

In Matthew 5:8; only the pure in heart will see GOD, this is because only the pure can live Holy. And it is through Holiness that a man can see GOD. Heb 12:14

Brethren, I enjoin you today to forsake all uncleanness, sin, iniquities and live a life of purity; purity in thoughts, in words and in deeds.

What you see, hear, think and those you associate with, GOD's place in your life, your fellowship with GOD determine if you will live a life of purity or not.

Questions to ponder on:

- Who am I in the Secret?
- Do I love GOD than myself?

Further reading: Psalm 24:3-5

GOD bless you.

Shalom.

Good Development....

Here is a brief background to the Zamfara APC case..

Recall that INEC had declined to accept APC candidates in Zamfara because, according to the commission, the party failed to meet the deadline for holding primaries.

This gave rise to two different Court litigations. One at Zamfara State High Court while the second one was at FCT High Court Abuja.

On 25th of January 2019 precisely, the two courts issued conflicting rulings on whether the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) can accept candidates presented by the All Progressives Congress (APC) for Zamfara State elections in 2019.

In Zamfara State, a High Court sitting in Gusau, ruled that the governing APC actually conducted primaries in the state and should be allowed to present candidates for electoral contest.

An Abuja court, however, ruled otherwise.

The Zamfara court specifically directed INEC to accept candidates from the party for Zamfara States in the forthcoming elections.

https://www.nairaland.com/4983785/two-courts-issue-conflicting-judgments

Based on the above, I summarize as follows:

1. A High Court in Zamfara gave a judgement, ordering INEC to reverse its decision to ban APC from fielding its candidates.

2. A Federal High Court in Abuja same day gave a judgment ordering INEC not to accept the APC candidates.

3. INEC for reasons best known to it choose to obey the Abuja high court Judgement while ignoring the one given by the Zamfara state high Court.

https://www.nairaland.com/4994271/jubilation-zamfara-inec-removes-apc

4. However, the Appeal Court in Abuja yesterday set aside the judgement of the Federal high court Abuja which ruled that INEC acted within its powers by refusing to accept the list of candidates from the Zamfara State chapter of the APC.

https://www.nairaland.com/5038510/court-appeal-clears-zamfara-apc

5. In setting aside the Abuja judgement, the appeal court gave two major reasons......First they said the Abuja suit was filled out of time, the same reason that killed the chances of APC in Rivers. Secondly, they said the Abuja suit was an abuse of court process that it should not have been entertained in first place since a similar suit was already subsisting in Zamfara State high Court....

6. Thus from the forgoing, the only remaining judgement is the Zamfara State high court judgement that specifically asked INEC to allow APC Zamfara to field its candidate which up till today has not been appealed or Upturned. So, the APC Zamfara candidates are cleared now for the elections.

Good..this is the first time I am getting a clear picture of the Zamfara APC matter

I so much love "Long Way To Go"

Nice song anytime anyday


"......try to take me out to dinner,I cancel it. If you really wanna know me first of all, you should never try to get too personal,cos I mean it when I say, that you gat a long way to go....."

Still listen to it now in my car...dope song!

Valerie47:
When you meet the right person, relationship becomes so sweet and easy, you have rest of mind and feel very appreciated.

Then you realize you have been wasting your previous time with the wrong people, giving love to people who are undeserving of it.

This is it...

That was an insensitive statement by the photographer....he should be invited by the police to answer questions and be warned

Impressive...

• Respect is more important than love. Not that love is not important. But there are many cases where couples choose to stay together even though the love had died long before. Sometimes to support their children till they grow up, or to attain financial security. In contrary, once you lose the respect to your partner, you won’t be able to coexist. You can revive lost love, but disrespect is irreparable.
• Fancy the eyes: If you decided to fall in love with the looks, make sure to fall for the eyes, because they never age. The handsome guy that you know today, in few years’ time, will have a muffin-top belly and thinning hair and the stunning beauty that you adore now will have wrinkled face and sagged posture. Remember, the eyes are the window of the soul. You will see your partner’s passion, joy and longing through them no matter how old they are.
• Cross minefields together: When your partner is progressing through a tough time in their career or if they’re struggling with some health issues, or even going insane. This is what I call the minefield of your married life. You must cross it together. If you decided to wait for him/her at the other side of the minefield and let them cross it by themselves, you’ll definitely lose them. If they don’t make it to the other side, you have lost them. If they made it by themselves without your support… You have lost them as well.
• You will not be the same person 10 years from now: People change all the time. You fell head over heels for this person. Years of continuously getting crushed under corporate-life wheels, marathon after the kids, and drowning in daily housework, will make your partner’s personality almost unrecognizable. They might become more nervous, less sensitive, more aggressive or less forgiving. They will definitely not be the same person. And you need to come to terms with the new version of you and your partner, otherwise your life will be unbearable.
• Work as a team: You found that after few years, both of you have changed. Now more than ever, you need to work as a team. It is so hard to have a ship with two captains. Sometimes let her be in control and sometime let him lead. At the end of the day you want to arrive safely to the other side.
• Feed your intimacy: Sex is like food and drink. Everyone knows that. But some people think that everyone can survive on the same amount of food. For some people, kids’ meal is more than enough. But some won’t feel full before devouring a whole family meal. Same with sex. Don’t expect your partner to have same appetite as you. If one partner was starved that might lead to unfaithfulness. You need to communicate your feeling, needs and worries otherwise you will be stuck in an ox donkey relationship.
• Be friends: One day, many years from now, when the cyclone of emotion, intimacy, kids growing and work routines, settle down, you’ll look back at your marriage path and reflect. You will have a lot of time to spend together. If the hours passed as eternity and you don’t have anything to say, then you haven’t been friends all your life. Friendship is the glue that stick the couple together. All the way to the end.
• Don’t take things for granted: ‘Happily ever after’ is an elusive statement. There are ups and downs in any marriage. Sometimes you feel you married the perfect partner and sometimes you perceived them as partner from hell. It is always work in progress. So, celebrate the good time and be ready for the hardships.
• Don’t compare: The following scenario may happen to you after few years of marriage: You’re having dinner with your partner with another couple who look like the Romeo and Juliet of the modern day. They look passionately at each other and touch hands as if it’s their first time. She explicates her man as the perfect husband. And he talks about her as the trophy wife. At your side of the table: Sigh… look at each other… why can’t my partner be like that? Be careful, what you had witnessed might be a show. Like the one you watch at the cinema. It had start and end time. Some people are good at acting in public.
• Patience… Patience… and more Patience: When you face any obstacles just remember that time mends all problems. So take a deep breath in… shall I make myself more clear?… Let it out. Patience.

Your life changes into a new phase the moment you make the decision to get married. Married life comes with its own advantages and disadvantages.

I am not going to dwell on the pros and cons of marriage. But I need you to know that marriage requires a lot of sacrifices from both parties involved. And that the benefits are far higher than the disadvantages.

My concern in this article is to highlight 3 important and critical steps that are necessary when moving from bachelorhood to marriage life.

Trust me, there are a lot of steps involved in the process of getting married but I have put together in this article three fundamental steps that are crucial and necessary.

3 Fundamental Steps for Getting Married for Bachelors

#1. Move out of your parents’ house

This is a brutal fact that shouldn’t be polished. You should consider moving out of your parents’ or family house the very moment you decide to get married.

Starting your own family require that you should have some basic home appliances. Ranging from furniture, kitchen utensils and other basic items.

From experience, staying with your parents have a way of discouraging you from buying personal properties needed to start life.

The financial burden being placed on you by your family can be overbearing especially when you are staying with them. Sometimes they depend solely on you that they may not want to engage themselves in any money making venture simply because they know that you are always there to provide their needs.

Staying alone also help you to know your true financial capabilities. It helps you to know if you can be able to bring in someone into your life and at the same time pay the person’s bills.

#2. Prepare yourself

Never make the mistake of dabbling into marriage with any form of preparation. I am sure that you wouldn’t want to call it a quit after a few months of getting married.

Getting married requires some level of preparations. It could be emotionally, spiritually and even financially.

Read books or consult marriage counsellors to help guide you make the right decisions ahead of marriage.

I recommend you read this book: Things I wish I’d Known Before We Got Married by Gary Chapman.

#3. Start a relationship

Gone are those days when out of nowhere our parents will just spring up with a woman for us to marry. Nowadays, we make our choices and we live with it whether good or bad.

Being in a relationship gives you the opportunity to get to know the person before making the decision to settle down with the woman or not.

I know that we have to work hard to make ourselves financially capable to handle marriage expenditures. But we shouldn’t get so busy to the extent that there wouldn’t be time to get to meet and know the right life partner.

The long and short is that having a relationship avails you the window to evaluate your compatibility with your future partner if carefully utilized.

Lastly, never go into a relationship with a woman with the hope of marrying her. Instead, start off with an open mind.

Having an open mind will help you to see both the good and bad side of her and guide you into making an unbiased decision.

Her presentation alongside South African soccer analyst Marawa was fantastic, much better than this year's drab hosts. I got to know she was bi-lingual when she hosted the event. I don't know much about her acting but her presentation is next to flawless.

True that....

danieljoel759:
The wife of the General Overseer of the Living Faith Church Worldwide (Dr. David Oyedepo), Faith Abiola Oyedepo explains to us what real intimacy in marriage really means, here is what she wrote...

. . . . .

I bring God’s Word your way today. I see God doing something new in your home and family in Jesus’ name. I will be sharing with you a topic which I titled: Attaining Intimacy in marriage.

It is very important that we know that marriage is the mystery of two people becoming one. Intimacy is the pillar of every successful marriage and it is the responsibility of both parties. When we talk about intimacy, the husband and wife should be the most intimate persons and best of friends.

What is intimacy?
Intimacy is the closeness of your relationship with your spouse – emotionally, spiritually, intellectually, sexually, and in many other ways. Intimacy is not an end but rather a journey that lasts throughout your marriage. Intimacy means a warm, close, confidential or private relationship, which develops through long association, friendship and familiarity.

UNDERSTANDING THE NEEDS FOR INTIMACY
Spiritual Needs
You must understand your likes and needs spiritually as husband and wife and help each other to attain it. For example, if your husband likes waking up in the middle of the night to read or study, you can be of help to him by alerting him when it is time to wake up:You, too, can also do likewise and make him a cup of hot tea. You can encourage him to do some spiritual exercise that he needs.

Emotional Needs
For intimacy to be developed in a marriage, you must understand your husband’s emotions. When he is depressed, try to find out what is happening and encourage him. You must not allow an “uncaring attitude” to creep into your home.


Psychological Needs
You must also understand some masculine peculiarities like desire for:

-Profound respect

-Admiration

These are two basic things, which every man craves from his wife.

PHYSICAL NEEDS: – Intimacy can be developed if you understand what your husband’s physical needs are and meet them.

You should satisfy his physical needs by
Giving your husband the type of food he likes, and not the one you like. Even, if you do not like a particular type of food before, you could try to adjust simply because of him.
Always wear the colour or type/style of dress he likes, not the one you want to wear. If he does not like a particular dress, it is not advisable to keep wearing such.
Adopt hairdos or styles that he likes, not what you like.
Be available to him when he wants to make love to you.
Do everything to please him. This will aid in developing intimacy because he will trust and have interest in you.

Companionship
Every man is created to crave constant fellowship. It is one of the major motivating factors that draw two people of the opposite sex together. After creation, the only thing that God called “Not good” was the fact that man was alone. Loneliness has been discovered to be one of the causes of mental retardation and erratic behaviours in many people, who are in that condition.

True companionship is what makes marriage meaningful. Spouses are not meant to be roommates but the closest of friends. The Word of God says: Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend (Proverbs 27:17).

It is unfortunate that many couples are missing out of this wonderful aspect of marriage. They live under the same roof, yet they are more or less strangers. Such marriages are empty and with time, their frustration leads to divorce. This is not the will of God. He expects you to have sweet communion not only with Him, but also with your partner.

The first step to take to enjoy intimacy in your marriage is to have an intimate relationship with your Creator; that is, be born again. You become born again by confessing your sins and accepting Jesus Christ as the Lord and Saviour of your life and family. If you are already born again, rejoice because your case is settled. If you are not yet born again and you desire to do so right now, please pray this prayer with faith in your heart: Dear Lord Jesus Christ, I come to You today. I am a sinner. Forgive me my sins and cleanse me with Your Blood. I accept You as my Lord and personal Saviour. Make me a child of God today. Thank You for delivering me from sin and satan to serve the living God and thank You for accepting me into Your Kingdom.

Congratulations! If you prayed this simple prayer of faith with me, you are now born again and a child of God. He loves you and will never leave you. Read your Bible daily, obey God’s Word and seek Christian fellowship (John 14:21).

I remember how frustrating it was playing for Arsenal and being their fan. You check the number of trophies this man won in his career if any came from the club. if not for Chelsea, such talent and fabregas would have ended their careers without any major trophy in their cabinet.

Alan Shearer is regarded as one the best ever strikers in the Epl...where are his trophies? truth is, Arsenal has just always been a "short fence" for people who want to always throw a shot about not winning trophies since they stopped winning as a result of the emergence of Chelsea, City et all. truth is All clubs grow throw a happy period winning things and also a lean period. There is nothing like "frustrating been a fan"....
