How can a house divided against itself ever stand? The Northern Youths are condemning the Northern State Governors for voting for GEJ instead of Atiku at the PDP Primaries. By their action, the Northern State Governors passed a vote of no confidence on Atiku. So why all the fuss & rioting? The North can not continue to disturb us with riots. I think its high time something is done to put a permanent end to all these unnecessary riots by the Northerners. As some posts rightly said, enough is enough of this sheepishness.

Poster, please thread with care. Seat your wife down & discuss the issue with her. If she is actually saving her ex's no. with another name, talk to her & resolve the matter amicably. Going to war without discussing the matter will only create unnecessary problems for your marriage, especially if you have kids. All the best.

My dear, you need not be anxious over this. As a christian, learn to trust in God. Be friendly with any man you admire, study & get to know him, while you put the matter into prayers. God will certainly direct & help you meet your Mr. Right. If you lock yourself up at home, you can still meet your Mr. Right with prayers. But going out once in a while will expose you more to life & make you more knowledgeable. That is not to say you should move with the wrong crowd. Be careful & allow God direct you always. Good luck.

My dear Dakore, Congratulations to you. Wishing you a happy married life. God protect you & your husband all the days of your life.

What a humiliation for Atiku! All the campaign money went down the drain. That means a clever thief, thief thief. Sori Atiku. Next time dont waste your money.

Up GEJ. May God see you through at the Polls. We are praying.

Please poster bear with him. He needs help since he snores & it looks he has stopped breathing. He certainly needs medical attention. Meanwhile use earplugs until the situation has improved.

Your friend should discuss the matter with his wife. However I expect that as husband & wife, whatever belongs to one belongs to the other. It is wrong to lay claim to ownership of any property because they are now one since they are married. Both of them can discuss the matter maturedly & come to an agreement. No one can take decisions for them.

Apportioning blame will get us nowhere. In fact if we bring men & women to a round table to debate this, blows will go in different directions. What we should do here is proffer solutions. This is my own solution. Before getting married, give it to God, court for a reasonable lenght of time, a year at least (rule out he/she is the only honey in my tea stuff, be serious), study themselves & know their likes & dislikes. Couples can always come to an agreement as regards what they want. God created Adam, & also Eve as a helper. If couples can remember this there will be no argument as to who the head of the home is. The man on the other hand should realise that the woman is his helper, not his slave, & give her her due respect. Both should have mutual respect for each other. The man as the head of the home is the bread winner & should play his role by providing adequately & caring for his family. The wife will love & respect him always for that, without being coerced. If women assist their husbands from their own income, the man will also appreciate it. Disagreements must arise but should be resolved harmoniously; no third parties. Do not go telling relations & friends about your home, it will only create problems for your marriage. Welcome your relations, the man's & woman's to your home always. I see no reason why such a couple should not have a happy & lasting marriage till death parts them.

Toyin's parents threatened to withdraw their daughter from the marriage if your uncle remained impotent. They made good that promise without following the right procedures. Your uncle it seems did not go to the wife's family to find out if actually they had withdrawn her or not. Now that you know her whereabout, tell your mum so she can tell him. Your uncle can divorce her & go on with his life. Let him go to any Tianshi Store to receive treatment. Their products & equipments will take care of his condition.

Atreides dear, I understand your plight. Please see your friend through with this. I want you to try convincing her to allow you go with her to an aunty or uncle she can confide in. Let them help her break the news to her parents, & also help appeal to them to forgive her. The earlier she breaks the news the better. Sooner or later her mum will find out that she is pregnant. Please make her realise that abortion is not an option. Its too risky. She can go to school until she is ready to deliver her baby. However that decision rest with her parents. I thank God for your life. Please concentrate on your schooling first before paying attention to marriage. With your qualification, you will command a lot of respect from men. You will have a lot of them flocking around you, asking for your hand in marriage. All the best.

Wonders will never end. So the family of the little girl gave out their daughter to a man who can best be described as her great great great great grandpa? And the little girl is happy getting married. God forbid. There must be more to this. The oldie must have given the family & the girl some monetary reward to succeed so easily. But even at that, I weep for this family & more especially for the little girl. She must be the very dull type to assent to that type of arrangement. How much longer does the epa have to live? He wants her to have children & what happens when he dies? God have mercy.

The question comes to mind, "Why was it not discovered that Okereke-Onyiuke faked her qualification before she was appointed for such a top position?" Why is it that we ridicule ourselves in all we do? We have only succeeded in washing our dirty linen in public. Its high time we learn to do things right.

Dakora made a good decision to settle down. She has made name, she has made money. She has dated her man for 4 good years. In other words she is ready to settle down. Her FIL extracted that promise to quit acting. She accepted. She has met the man she loves & wants to settle down. She is not growing younger, so the earlier the better. There are other things she can do to generate a lot of income. I wish her a happy married life.

My dear Dakore, I wish you a very happy married life. May God protect you both, bless you with children & all that you wish yourselves.

May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace. I commiserate with his family. May God give them & all Nigerians the fortitude to bear this great loss.

This is a step in the right direction. Am for anything that will guarantee Nigerians stable & constant power supply. Ghana, a small country enjoys regular power supply. We the giant of Africa should have put our house in order long before now so all will acknowledge that we are actually the giant of Africa. Thanks to the Federal Government for trying to actualise our dream of regular power supply.

I refer to your comments thweraja10 - "Well we need prayer but I dont think prayer alone can solve this problem. Every one should put his house in order. Cos all this things started from the family." I beg to disagree with you that prayer alone can not solve this problem. Prayers have solved even more serious problems. I also suggested inviting the Israeli Government to assist us. Since we dont seem to have a solution in Nigeria we need to look outwards.

Absolutely nothing. He has only succeeded in looting our treasury. The allegations against him are many. So why should such a criminal not be behind bars? But rather than put him behind bars, he is allowed to go about fomenting trouble with his ill-acquired wealth. Imagine him boasting that he will make Nigeria ungovernable for GEJ. We dont know who is behind these bombings. He could well be the one, because of his utterances. But God will surely bring the perpetrators to justice, not one will escape.

Nairalanders, Christians, Muslims, etc. its high time we all pray fervently for God to urgently intervene & put a permanent stop to these bombings & problems plaguing our Great Nation. At the same time, I believe its time for the Federal Government to urgently invite the Israeli Government to help us fish out perpetrators of this unpatriotic act. Mighty Father, we thank you for your urgent intervention in the affairs of our Nation, & putting a stop to the bombings & other sinister plans of the enemies, in Jesus' Name, Amen.

To whom much is given much is expected. All that Jega requires should be given to him. All we want is credible election.

Thank God for His mercies all through the year 2010. I wish all Nairalanders a Very Happy & Prosperous New Year, & God's Invincible Protection Always. Happy Celebration.

Companionship & procreation are very strong reasons for marriage. They complement each other; one can not be divorced from the other if the marriage MUST be meaningful. Companionship, yes. But without procreation there is no marriage. So both MUST of necessity flow together. We have seen a lot of cases of divorce because couples are unable to have children. If Companionship is the sole reason for marriage, why the high divorce rate? So Companionship & Procreation are very important in marriage.

Life has taught me so many things, but I will list a few. I have learnt to trust absolutely in God, & have never been disappointed. I have learnt that with patience & perseverance one can surmount obstacles in life. I have learnt to love my neighbour as myself because we are brothers & sisters, children of the one God, that includes helping my neighbour in need, where possible. I have learnt to be humble at all times. We learn every day. Let us learn & be of service to one another. That way we live a fulfilled life.

This is a simple matter. Discuss with your wife, make her understand the nature of your job. Phone her from time to time to express your love for her. Let her know you miss her also. She must feel lonely when you are away, especially if it is on a regular basis. She loves you & that is why she is sad when you are away. Please reciprocate the gesture to save your marriage.

You are the first child, & your mum still treats you like a baby? You are to blame, & honestly you are not ready for marriage. If you get married, your mum will take over the running of your home. No good can come from such a marriage. Please sort out this issue between you & your mum before embarking on marriage. Its important.
