*Dan Blocker, Penney Robert, Michael Landon, Long Green*

Saghy: Chika if u get ur divorce next month will u marry againg?

Bonaguy: I understand this is a sensitive topic but could we talk about your marriage. How long were you married for?
I was married for about five years.

The end of your marriage brought up a lot of speculation with people insinuating different reasons in the media but up till date you haven’t really come out to say what went wrong. Why are you quiet about it?
I’m a very private person and I keep my private issues to myself. As an actress, there are some things I don’t want to let out. My marriage is a very sensitive topic and I don’t really like to speak about what I went through.

The major rumored reason was domestic violence and this is something a lot of women face in their marriages. A popular blogger once advised that you tell your story so that other women can learn from your experience.
Maybe when the right time comes, I’d talk about it. There is something I’ve been avoiding saying but I’d tell you. I’m separated and I’m working on my divorce and very soon I’d get a divorce. Even if it’s so hard to believe, I’ve decided to let bygones be bygones and move on without him in my life. Both of us are still on talking terms and I’ve also learnt to forgive him. Maybe when I’m done with my divorce, I would be able to talk about it. I’m going through a lot of emotions right now and it’s still very fresh.

I quite understand. Do you think getting married at a young age was a disadvantage or had anything to do with the way it ended?
I think it has to do with so many reasons, one of them might be being young. Some people get married that young and have been able to make their marriages work. But if you’re young, you’re young. There are some things you’ve not experienced. You might not be able to stay calm when you’re supposed to stay calm, understand when you’re supposed to understand or leave what you’re supposed to leave. Also, I think these days, a lot of people are not happy in their marriages. I have a lot of friends who would have left their marriages but because of the African society, their in-laws, what people will say or other factors, they stay. We’ve heard of a lot of deaths caused by bad marriages and before the death, there would have been signs, things that have been happening leading up to that. I think it has to do with age and so many other things like compatibility and not being true to yourself in the marriage. Everybody has a limit. There are some things in marriage that you might not be able to stand. Some people’s limit might not be my limit; my limit might be somebody’s starting point.

Have you moved on and are you willing to try again?
I’ve moved on but marriage right now is not at the top of my list. I’m still trying to get myself together. I don’t want to make the same mistake twice. I have to understand the person I’m going to be with. There are so many things involved.

chimkaire: Did anyone see a reply that says her husband impregnated some other girl because Chika couldn't conceive yet?? Yet, you fall over yourselves in your self-righteous "ish" judging her?? And who said this is a scene out of one her movies should have mentioned the name of the movie.

tulk2mi: Yeah, I remember, watched, Love boat, John wayne western, ichoku, village headmaster, tom sawyer & huckleberry finn, cant remember d name of this series where two cops on bike catching bad guys we used to call them back then "expert riders" IWA wrestling, sound of music especially on xmas days, invisible man, bionic woman etc

Ishilove: Jeeze...you're old! Lol

babyphil77: . ITS COCK CROW AT DAWN. THE SONG SANG THUS; WHEN U EVER GET THERE 2x, WHEN U EVER SING D SONG OF D COCK CROW AT DAWN.

4llerbuntu: naaah, not true. except your folks were so pinching that they refused to buy new TV u could not have seen these programs on the sliding cupboard TV.

probably things fall apart, but even that I saw on a regular black n white and on a color TV.

those programs u listed came waaaaay after the cupboard TV sets.


and this applies to a lot of other guys trying to form old skool.

this TV was extinct around 87-90. anything from 1992 upwards, it was regular b/w TV and early colored sets. a lot of those programs u folks are listing were screened in the early 90s

Quaritch: Na FEYIKOGBON naa!
Ajirebi et al and the LWT (Lagos Weekened Television) of old,
If i can rememeber!
I think, its chinese films on friday night, Indian films on Sunday and American films Saturday!

I can still remember the catchy tune!
Who knows the song?

Tropilo: Technology changes and improves with time.

We used to have a more modernized version of that telly. Ours was with a very sensitive touch button for changing chennels and if you shut the right door the telly went off. We also had d panasonic video machine that was a big as a photocopying machine.

Now 3D and HD tellies are here. Nawa!

Only GOD knows what will become of our present tellies in the future.

Jakumo: Holy Toledo, Naptu. Your grasp of sub-Saharan Africa's contemporary politics is both comprehensive and insightful. I wouldn't be surprised if the above opinion has already become reference material for intelligence analysts employed both by Uncle Johnny B. Good, and more importantly, by Uncle Sam.

cecegorz: Wow! This is quite impressive.
Can any lawyer confirm that we no longer have Presidents/Govs pictures nailed in the walls of our law courts.
I used to think it's constitutional to have those pictures in place.

Realest123: Pictures are allowed in Nigerian courts? SMH...

iheanyiebeneze: "Yar'Adua's comments inadvertently underscored what a potent threat the militants and their methods may yet pose. And past experience in Nigeria suggests one military operation, however ruthless, will not be enough to eradicate them. In fact, the radicalisation of a minority of Nigeria's 70 million Muslims, roughly half the population, can be traced back to the decision in 2000, by 12 of the 36 states, to more strictly enforce sharia law. The effects are still being felt. . .

In 2003, Osama bin Laden singled out Nigeria as an area of special interest for al-Qaida's destabilisation agenda and the following year the so-called Nigerian Taliban first emerged". . .

In a later interview with the BBC, Mohammad Yusuf, Boko Haram's enigmatic leader, said he believed western-style education was contrary to Islam and "spoils the belief in one God". Yusuf went on: "Like rain. We believe it is a creation of God rather than an evaporation caused by the sun that condenses and becomes rain. Like saying the world is a sphere. If it runs contrary to the teachings of Allah, we reject it. . .

The radicalisation is mixed with a deep sense of grievance against the south. . . shocked
