Stop quoting that person. She's just making people like u talk.

Did what she wrote make sense to u?

Many share her view.
Hence the need to retort once in a while.

franchasofficia:
Staph is not entirely a sexually transmitted disease.


You can contract staph through eating with the same plate or spoon an infected person ate with that wasn't properly washed. A lot of Nigerians contract staph through mama put restaurants.


Also eating poorly washed fruits, vegetables, etc that are infected with staph bacteria will infect you.


There are other ways too that is not sex related.



You need to carry out a culture and sensitivity test to know which antibiotics your body is resistant to so you don't waste your time taking antibiotics that your body has developed resistance to.


If your body isn't resistant to Rocephin injection, try it, it will take care of it

Thanks for sharing.

PoliteActivist:
Should the new president take some sort of action?

Do you support Jagaban Borgu banning political prophesies like these??

ThanKs for opening this thread.
Prophets should be held accountable for false prophecies. Even the bible teaches so.

Deut.18.18 - I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among their brethren, and will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him.

Deut.18.19 - And it shall be that whoever will not hear My words, which He speaks in My name, I will require it of him.

Deut.18.20 - But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in My name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.'

Deut.18.21 - And if you say in your heart, "How shall we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?'

Deut.18.22 - when a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing does not happen or come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him.

I am the exact opposite of husband material and proud of it. Any vaginarian who sees me otherwise needs her already degraded brain reexamined. I don't love them and don't seek their love. As a matter of fact, I double my guard whenever I hear "I love you" from them because their confidant, the devil was once father of love.

This had me messed up with laughter!!!
Honestly if woman don do man strong ting where you dey, you go dey run from dem. Or him go become heartless towards dem.

Likewise if man don do woman strong ting na why some of dem too dey run from man or become evil/heartless/vengeful towards man.

So you see the problem is vice versa. Not the gender but the person. Just that man still get small conscience pass woman.

After struggling for so long

Suicide is the only way for now

The problem is no one knows if you're serious or catching cruise.
I dropped my number the other time, you did not call.

Please, whatever you're going through is just a phase. How long it will last depends on how long you allow it.

Talk to people physically.
Meet your pastor or talk to a therapist.
There are so many people going though this tough time.
Don't give up pls.

I should start first..i dont know why i like boring my finger nails even the nails on my toes i've tried to stop it but i keep forgetting its already a habit ..i think i learnt how to bite my nails from my dad ..my dad always bite his nails often ..i dont know how and why i copied him .please how can i stop biting my nails..because my nails are now short.

This is so me. I don't even know where I picked it from. Probably primary school while avoiding being flogged on the assembly for keeping dirty/long nails.

The second is chewing my mouth (cheeks). I really can't even explain this one. Maybe I assumed it was cute growing up or it helped me think.

I have tried and tried. Na only God I dey trust now.
I really don't want my kids to pick up any of these habits from me.

How to still make it more and more big' i am always lost in thinking

Lol this is man's nature.
What we need is to be content with what we have first, then clarity will come as we focus on God and solving problems around us.

Na money go dey find you. You go dey tire to make money. True story.

This is the moral of the story of life.

Jennyclay:
Lies! Lies!!

It’s not even up to five months this man has been in jail .

Just release the rapist so that we’ll know he’s out of jail than telling us these rubbish!!

This useless man should have been sentenced to death or life imprisonment but since we’re in Nigeria, he would be pampered.

The Nigerian court encourages rape in our society! Animals everywhere!!! Shior!!!

Let he/she without sin be the first to cast a stone.
As grievous as his crime is, is death really the best option?

If God were to count our own sins, should any of us be alive?
Pray for sinners. Everyone one has one weakness or another. Before God, all sinners will go to hell even as little as unforgiveness.

I believe He has learnt his lesson and is learning his lesson.
I believe the child will heal by God's Grace.
I believe this will teach a lot of men lesson to both have self-control and beware of females- young and old.

See what lack of self control have caused him? I hope Faber and other men out there will learn self control and not to be sleeping with everything inside the skirt

You've rightly spoken.

SultanOfPuna:
Religion has turned my mother into a shadow of herself.
Ever since our teenage years my mother was not the churchy type. We are raised Catholics
Back then she was active and bubbling.

all of a sudden my mother left Catholic faith and started messing around with different churches.
This has cause countless rift between us, my dad and elder sister have done everything possible but my mum is too brainwashed by these Pentecostal pastors.

How can someone be attending Christ embassy and winners chapel?? I Heard she wants to join mountain of fire but changed her mind.
Everytime church, church, church
Yet she never gain anything from it
I have been sending her money for her for upkeep since November last year only to come back home February this year and discovered she donates everything to different churches


I feel she might have a mental disorder and I don't know how to save her.
She literally spends all the money in church donation tithe and all those craps. And those pastors always calling her to come for one program or the other. I don't know what to do

You just described my mom too.
No she is not mad. She is just desperate for the protection and success of her family especially you her children.

My mom did that for about a decade but today, thank God it has reduced.

Please do not insult her, simply let her know that she has to focus on Jesus in a good church.

You see this life, if you will not believe the Truth for free, you will buy the lie with pain.
She is simply paying for not being a born-again mother from the start.

Please let her know that all she needs is to be born again and focus on Jesus Christ. She needs to receive the Holy Spirit and start learning of Christ like a new believer.

She thinks it is pastors that will answer her prayers where as it is God, her Father Himself that answers prayers and He simply wants her to focus on Him and build a relationship.
God Himself will take care of her battles.

You and your siblings also need to be born again. You have no idea of the battles you inherited simply by being born. Also the battles you acquire through marriage. You need Jesus Christ, not only to protect you but to Lead you through Life.

Don’t quote me bcuz i don’t respond to quotes

Can you fight who God has blessed?
Better bless those whom God has blessed so that you won't suffer the consequences of stubbornness.

the race to heaven is not easy

Nothing good comes easy.
With Christ, making heaven is easier than making hell.

vastolord4:
Like I literally told my wife that my kids no matter the gender interswitch their duties in the house.. In the world of today, no gender is subdued to a particular job or role eg midwifery, transportation, even robbers have female gangleaders..

As good as this is, there are roles more suitable to each gender.

We are to improve on what has been established by our predecessors, not to rebel against them.

There's a reason God created men as male. And Women as female.
While an evolved man/woman is in touch with both their masculine and feminine sides, it's important we recognise the difference albeit as little as it may be.

Mental illness isn't a funny place to be.
It's all in the mind.
I occassionally experienced bouts of depression.
I could not explain why I would just suddenly begin to feel mentally and emotionally drained and before I knew it I would become depressed and push every one away.
Usually triggered whenever I constantly kept feeling underachieved I guess.
I would resort to drinking till the drinking got out of hand.

I sincerely appreciate your choice of care. Wish I considered therapy back then.
I will also encourage you to please inculcate prayers to your practice.

I eventually overcame my depression through Christ and I really can't believe I ever contemplated suicide.
My Hope and Trust in Christ fuels my inexpressible joy and peace of mind.

God bless you and help liberate everyone from mental illness in Jesus name. Amen.

Omicron007:



The tyrant Idi-Amin of Uganda was once the Chairman of the Organization for African Unity (OAU).

Tinubu emerging as ECOWAS Chairman is not an achievement.

The worst president in the world, Buhari was even a former Chairman of ECOWAS.

Perhaps you need to redefine achievement for the English dictionary just so suit your own bitterness.

God1000:
I agree with Biden, the timing is wrong.

At least this war should be over before any of such discussion, but what can Putin do if Ukraine joins NATO now? Nothing

I salute the unwavering support of the Biden administration for Ukraine, the invaders should pull out and go back home.

Putin should be more concerned about the cracks in his government, he won't survive another mutiny.

The invasion of Ukraine has further enlarged NATO with Finland membership and Sweden very soon, so what's the point of this senseless war? it has turned counterproductive.

How do we forget so easily that US is not after the interest of any country but theirs?
War is simply business to US. Can you imagine how much US is making from this Russia-Ukraine war?

Yes, Russia has no right to dictate to Ukraine what body to join or not. However their concern is note-worthy if you understand the history between USSR and USA.

I sincerely hope Zelenskyy and Putin come to Peace terms as Zelenskyy comes to realise that their common enemy is USA and not each other.

Your brother is a disgusting simp

See that nairaland turmac of a girl just dey write rubbish..she nor know say na her fellow gender go collect the phone from the girl..most nairaland girls nor dey read the body of a story..haha..she don hurry Edit am...


You are absolutely correct
I have sisters at home ...

Do you know another funny thing
Females don't really hate the fact that men are polygamous in nature
Infact they love it when you are capable of banging multiple women
The only time they hate it na when their husband dey do am...if you think am lying then go close to your sister and the day she will know you can bang multiple girls she will love you the more

As right as you are, I still think you need to make some new friends.
Not everyone thinks like this.
Generic statements leave room for errors.
No one size fits all.

turmacs:
Just look at how this foolish criminal is confessing to crime..Openly admiting to falsely framing someone of theft and forcefully taking their property, agbaya......Even though the phone collector is a woman, some useless men are like that too, they just don't have sense and saying they behave like small pikin is an insult to children... Broke and insecure men everywhere. Na Una mate dey buy GLE Benz for their babes for Festac here, na your mate dey build mansion dash woman.. Ordinary Tecno phone wey no reach 50k na him Una go dey carry Soldier go collect from a woman.. I don't have much to say but I have an advice for the ladies here, avoid broke men like plague, avoid them like cancer.. Sometimes too much suffering and poverty really messes with their brain and affects how they think, nonsense..Any guy above 23 years old that doesn't have a car, a House and 50+ million in the bank is a failure, avoid them for your own good and mental health.. A word is enough for the wise...

As much as it is wrong for anyone to retrieve a gift, this case seems to be justified.

The lady in question clearly said she does not have anything to do with any man from his village, yet she reneged on her own boundary by collecting a phone gift from someone from the "forbidden" village.

Obviously the man in question has a good heart for not pressing for the gift. And the sister simply stood for justice.

How she went about is also wisdom.

LegallyBlunt:
Good day everyone. For a couple of weeks now, there has been issues where I worship.

Mostly between the Pastor and his assistant (presently former assistant). They had a falling out, which escalated to a point where the assistant stopped his duties.

Now, I managed to ask questions about the issue and the Pastor gave his version. I also got to know about the assistant's version.

However, here's the issue - they're not in speaking terms! Isn't that malice? Isn't that dangerous, and a deviation from what Christians ought to do? Are they not in danger of hell and manipulation from the devil and agents of sin?

What's even more painful is that the church just continues like there's no issue on ground. It's sad, really.

They both need to learn Forgiveness and Leading by Example.
There are levels of forgiveness. Even when you are in the right, just make peace.
Everyone is growing.

Let's start with the basic component definitions:

Tribe:
1. A socially, ethnically, or politically cohesive group of people.
2. (anthropology) A society larger than a band but smaller than a state.

Veil:
1. Something hung up or spread out to hide or protect the face, or hide an object from view; usually of gauze, crepe, or similar diaphanous material.
2. (figurative) Anything that partially obscures a clear view.
3. A cover; disguise; a mask; a pretense.

In the context of this write-up, A veil is what blinds us from the truth.
Hence Tribal Veil simply refers to how our tribal differences blind us from seeing the truth.

First, permit me to introduce this discourse as a religious and social discourse based on the study of biblical teachings and societal observations, engagements and interactions.

According to the bible, all creation emanated from a Creator- God.

God created Mankind and Blessed them.
Through Adam and Eve, all humans would be born and spread all over the earth- multiplying and having dominion over territories.

Satan deceives Eve to sin (disobedience to God) and mankind inherits curses.

Family feuds ensue from generation to generation.
Cain murders his brother Abel over envy.
Evil spread all over the earth and mankind multiplied. Until God decides to refresh the earth and selects Noah's family. Noah builds the great Ark and the great torrents drowned all creation except the family of Noah.

Noah blessed some of his children and cursed one over his abomination.
Generations after, Abraham is chosen by God to cancel the curses and reestablish God's blessings on mankind. He would become the Father of Nations.
Abraham's grand child, Esau traded his birthright over food. And Jacob his twin brother becomes the lineage of Jesus Christ.

This background is important to help us understand that we are all one family- every human being.

Gen.9.18 - Now the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.
Gen.9.19 - These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.

It is believed, though speculative that African lineage came through Ham who was cursed by Noah for not covering his unclothedness when he was drunk. (This explains a lot.)

Today we are polarized across various divides- racial, continental, national, tribal, state, ethnic, family, etc. This is inevitable. Even as families we are divided, one nuclear family is fighting another nuclear family especially in polygamous homes. Not to talk of the compound and extended families.

If we can really look introspectively and also see beyond our differences, we will come to realise that we have simply inherited fights, battles and family feuds from generation to generation.
Some family feuds we were never even a part of.

-Why should a white and a black man today hate each other because of the various forms of Slavery that happened centuries ago?

-Why should Yoruba/Igbo/Hausa hate one another today because Biafra happened decades ago?

The Truth is We are One Big Family.
And We need to heal.
Our generation needs to be intentional so as not to continue these repeat patterns.

When we hear of generational and ancestral curses, these are what forms the foundation of our problems- individually, as families, tribes, nationally and globally.

We should employ every means necessary to end this vicious and pathetic cycles- Religiously, Socially, Academically, Politically, Psychologically, etc.
Not only for our own sakes- but more importantly for our children and the generations to come.

So help us God. Amen.

radiolover:
I have sent possibly more than 80 applications and fortunately, I got called by a few.

I have exhausted scarce resources to attend interviews, editing and re-editing resumes to fit a certain role and position, cost of transportation, I don't want to even mention having to trek a long distance sometimes due to lack of fund to pay Tfare. I mean someone is broke and hungry and trying his best to land a job but he's rather receiving rejection mails. What is this?

On Monday, I received a rejection mail from automobile company where I applied for a marketing role. On Tuesday, I received another one from a production factory.

Now I just returned from another job hunting only to open my mail and saw another rejection mail. This very one pain me most because I had high hope on it and i have spent so much on it too. During the second stage of the interview, I can remember how I waited from 8am till 5pm just to see 'Oga', and after seeing him, I began to walk my way home and got home late. I know i'm sounding sentimental here but it's so annoying that i went through all that 'ontop empty belle' and at the end, I wasnt offered the job.

Very very painful and morale killing.

I feel so bad right now.

Feels like the world has crashed.

Feels like everything has finished.

Feels like everything has ended.

Feels like more hunger for me ahead ahead.

Who has faced this before?

How did you comfort yourself?

It's a phase and this too shall pass.
Remember there was a time it seemed passing common entrance exam was the hardest thing in life?
But you passed.
Then came Junior Waec and Waec and Jamb... yet you passed.
Then it seemed Graduating from Uni was the toughest thing... Fast forward all that and here you are, you did it onem.
That's how it will be when you look back at this phase later once you've scaled through.

Some times these things just help test our tenacity and bring out or strengths to see what we can make out of challenges.

My suggestion.
1. Keep pushing.
2. Keep praying.
3. It would also help if you added your qualification to this write-up, your employer could be on NL. You don't have to include much of your personal details.
4. While hunting for jobs, you can also consider other things to keep your juice and creativity up: Church activities, NGO activities, Build a skill, Widen your horizon in this Internet/Social Media Age there are more opportunities.

God bless you.

Adachizzy:
Let women breathe. It's not like we don't know the best for ourselves, or y'all care about us more than we do.

There are many options to making babies now, at the end of the day, what matters this day is taking care of a child, not bringing it into the world.

As long as it isn't hurting you, a woman’s age should not be your concern.

Women this, women that, haba!!
PS: I'm not 30 or 35, before some bitter people here misread and misyarn.

Well said.
But this is not an attack but an advice.
Everyone knows OP is making sense.

As it is said, No one size fits all.
For some marrying early is a blessing.
For some marriage can wait till after they have achieved certain set goals and ambitions.

Bottomline, now where you fit and adjust yourself accordingly.

Ishilove:
This is so weird... You preach at someone's burial (someone you're very close to), and the next couple of hours you're dead.

There's more to this than meets the eyes

There is so much attack in ministry work.
Which is why a lot of ministers shy away from some of these works.
But God knows best.
May their souls rest in peace and May God's counsel stand in their families. May the gates of hell truly not prevail against the church in Jesus name. Amen

RenaissanceGuy:
Praying for a dead person is futility. It's what they were before their death that determines whether they find peace or damnation in the hereafter.
You may only pray for God to grant their families the strength to bear the loss.

Even if it is futility, there's nothing wrong in it.
Pray at all seasons and pray about everything.

Pusyiter:
Stay there dey deceive yourself
Young girls of 15
Hormones control them
They lose it and get BFs as controlled by hormones
Their emotional feelings have a mind of their own.

What you just said is very instructive.

Men are more controlled by the mind as women are more controlled by their emotions.

It is important as parents to be able to win the trust of your children. When you create an atmosphere of good and effective communication in your home, by the time they become curious about such things it will be easy to engage them in sex education.

Of course with prayers, they will be able to know their right and wrong.

By the way, dear OP, why do you think it's ok for your child to have boyfriend?

Is the boyfriend for marriage or dating or companionship? You have to properly define these words. Effective communication is the solution to most misunderstandings.

Just to be clear she should only be allowed to have friends for companionship and you have to be intentional to know about the family she is getting close to.
Dating as a concept has been abused.
Dating is usually casual and not with the intention of marriage.

So she should only have male friends for companionship not for dating.

When she is ready to marry she will recognise her suitors. And she will be able to distinguish her husband.

This guy never ready

I'm presently in the same shoes. So I understand.
Once you're a born again Christian, it's difficult to find a wife in this generation. And it's the same for the born again lady.

While I may not go as extreme as he did, I really do understand his plight.
When you see what born again Christians go through in marriage when they compromise God's standard of a wife, you will almost not want to marry.

Perfect reply.
When men and women get their priorities right, there will be so much productivity in Nigeria.

Because we presently waste the most valuable currency- Time on unproductive engagements especially unnecessary relationships and entanglements.

There's time for everything in life.
