This is how to dress for your husband, even when you're nursing a baby

What exactly are you trying to achieve by dressing like this? Are you planning on having another baby in 9 months without even weaning this baby in your hands??

Jamaican dancehall artist Vybz Kartel's conviction for murder has been overturned.
The 48-year-old was given a life sentence in 2014 for the killing of Clive "Lizard" Williams on the Caribbean island.
His successful appeal, heard by the Privy Council in London, argued that a juror accused of trying to bribe others should have been thrown off his trial. Authorities in Jamaica will decide whether the case should be retried.

The musician, real name Adidja Palmer, is one of the country's most popular artists and has collaborated with performers such as Jay-Z and Rihanna. His 64-day trial was one of the longest in Jamaican history, and ended with Kartel being ordered to serve a minimum of 35 years in jail. This was later reduced to 32-and-a-half years.

The trial heard that victim Clive Williams and another man, Lamar Chow, were given two unlicensed firearms belonging to Kartel for safekeeping. When they failed to return them at an agreed time, prosecutors said, they were summoned to Kartel's house in August 2011.
Chow told the trial they were attacked and the last thing he saw was Clive Williams - who was never seen alive again - lying motionless on the ground. The house burned down days later and a body was never recovered.

Kartel and his co-accused Shawn Campbell, Kahira Jones and Andre St John had maintained their innocence since the original trial.

Tell him to buy clove plant from all this Yoruba women in the market, it's just around one hundred naira...


That's what my bro used.

Buy clove and plant it or buy clove and start looking at it every morning?

Try dey explain better for good comprehension for those who might need your solution.

The South African police have detained six individuals linked to the high-profile murders of renowned rapper, Kiernan Forbes, popularly known as AKA, and his close associate, celebrity chef and entrepreneur Tebello “Tibz” Motshoane.

The tragic incident occurred on February 10, 2023, when the duo was fatally shot outside a popular Durban restaurant, just hours before AKA was scheduled to perform at a nearby club.

AKA, who initially gained fame as a member of the rap group ‘Entity’ before launching a successful solo career, was a celebrated figure in the South African music scene and beyond.

Over the years, he garnered numerous awards, earning accolades at both the Black Entertainment Television and MTV Europe Music Awards.

Imagine packing human beings like cow meat taken away to be processed when an ambulance is the ideal thing to use?

Glimpsetv:
Pictures 1 and 2 show the injured and deceased being carried away by vans.

And you think taking him to a boarding school would be a good idea?
I cld sense you are trying to prevent the situation whereby your brother turns a (fe)male or starts doing female stuffs.

Boarding school is the haven of such practices you are trying to avoid.

Be wary..

Cooolme:
Greetings everyone. This festive season, I traveled to my family house and noticed something.

We rented out the 2 bedroom in our compound to this couple with a little girl around 4 year old I think.

Understand that my lil Bro (10) is the last born, so he stays with my Mom and 3 other of my sisters including the eldest. He is very close to our last sister (13), they do literally everything together.

So I noticed whenever our last sister plays with this our neighbour's kid, my lil Bro leaves whatever he's doing to join them. He grew up with the ladies in the house though cos My dad is late so I'm more like the father figure now. I don't live with them, the 2nd boy (17) lives with me and is in the university at my state of residence. This is a new estate we moved into and unlike our former estate where he goes out to play with his peers at the play ground, this one is very quiet and more like OYO (on your own).

Normally, there's a gaming console in the house and also a desktop computer, put them all in the house last year, he could make use of that whenever he's bored but he choose to play with the girls. My Mom doesn't have a problem with that but I don't want him to start behaving like a girl or something, so I'm considering putting him in a good boarding school cos he's too young to come stay with me at the moment.

Also looking out for the best way possible to handle this, need advice from mainly parents please.

Thanks.

Few days ago my wife was angried and utterred some statements that I do not like.
The statement was that she relating an issue by using my mum
The statement was "had it been it was your mum that did that you would have find means to repay her'.
I find it offensive for uttering such a statement, I was offended immediately but I kept my calm because we are already prepared to go out.

So when we came back I informed her that I am annoyed with what she said.

Her reply was that she did nothing wrong with such a statement because she didn't insult or belittle my mum.

I told I'm not but she decided not to apologize for that.

After two days our communication has not been normal and it only greetings.

So the next day I called and discussed it with her but still stands that she isn't wrong.

We have not been in good terms since then,

Please isn't she supposed to apologise despite that I told her I don't like the statement?

WHAT IS THE ESSENCE OF HER APOLOGISING AND DOING IT AGAIN IF YOU DO NOT NIP THE TIP IN THE MUD?

It's obvious you seem to be like a gentleman. But If you are the type that always wait for apology for every wrong done to you, you go either wait tire or would always be offended because las las na apology you go chop.

Try to make it uneasy for people to easily offend you. By that, you won't have to wait for any apology from anyone.

JASONjnr:
I believe, you must have had your answers while typing this and you don't need anyone's opinion on what to do.

On why he contacted you, nobody will reveal anything that will be close to his intentions.


So, why not fold your hands and see what he brings.

Lol @ your last paragraph..

Name: Mark Surname: John.

Seriously, where are they from? I remember we give names from our dialects. Some people have English names but only as first names or preferred ones. Their ‘native names’ dominate all of their official documents. In the given examples, those English names and surnames are their official ones.

Fela said it all.. "Colo mentality"

This us what happens when a people do not know their history.. And the easiest way to preserve any knowledge of such history has also been scrapped from the schools.

I don't know whether what I saw this morning falls under sex harrasment, but here is mine.

We got down from a public vehicle (me and my sister) and then tried to cross the road only for one grown up to hit my sister butt and claim it was an accident.

My sister overlooked it and the we crossed the road. As we were going up a bridge, we decided to stop and buy something only for the same man to do it again. He still said it was a mistake and walked away. The road is a big one ooo, and no car was passing by but the man decided to walk on the corner where no reasonable person will pass so that he would accomplish his mission.

My sister and I were really pissed off, even the traders attending to us were insulting him but he couldn't care less.

I couldn't do anything because my sister told me not to as per he his an old useless man. If not ehnn...

Share your experience

I am the 2nd born out of 2 children, my elder brother has been married for some time with no kids as a result I am super careful with issues relating to fertility.
I am in my late 30s and have been dating a 27 year old lady for 4 months now, the relationship moved so fast as she is a perfect match for me .
I have met her family and she has met mine, we are already planning marriage and have started counselling sessions in her church.

She complained of irregular periods so I told her to do a hormonal profile test and see a gynecologist, turns out she has got PCOS.

I have done my own fertility test and I am fine, I am at a cross road now, I cannot afford to struggle with child birth considering my age and also my only other sibling still also having issues with the wife also still trying to get pregnant after many years.

The only other option would have been to ask her to try for pregnancy before marriage but she is a virgin and wants to keep it that way till wedding, besides if I disvirgin her, how will I be able to walk away incase she doesn't get pregnant ?

I am at crossroads now, its not too late but walking away at this point will be very costly for me since we have already started plans towards the wedding and our families are already in touch.

My heart is heavy and I am confused, I need good advise as I cannot discuss this with anyone.

4 months and you are already planning wedding? That's super fast oh..
One (or both of you) is insecure.

Involve her family in matters like this..
Its not what you and her can face alone.

It's not about it being local or little. The Bread was gotten from Market Square super market. I just find it awkward giving bread to your son-in-law to be on the first meeting.

Gifts are symbolic you know.

Oversabi is what is worrying u my broda.
U saw "bread". Your inlaw saw "gift".

U shld av collected d "gift".

They might think the reason for your refusal was because you feel the gift was too small and not befitting for you to accept from them.

Do you think they would want to gift you another thing in the future?
With the fear of you rejecting it because it is not up to standard?

Anyhow, what is done is done.
There is sti time to correct the impression. But no matta how u clean a slate, d mark go stl dey..

As this isnt done in the kitchen, I'm patiently waiting for who will try to break this record....

Egyptians know religion is a scam, infact some of the first churches in the world started in Egypt like Abu Saga


Even Jesus lived 80% of his life in Egypt.. from birth when they fled from king Herod to when he returned at 30s for evangelism

If i told you i av never thought of this knowledge from this point of view nko, wld you have agreed with me?

Thanks so much for this hidden open knowledge.

No wonder though not human, He had a very STRONG humanly background in knowledge.

In a country where even the old and rickety ones have refused to leave the helms of affairs of the state to the youths, this is what you get when we get high turn outs of underage graduates who do not know their rights from left..

Ayanwukoma:
I just packed into this man house recently and he seem like a well to do man, always saying money is not his problem.

He takes his tennant as his family and wants us to live as one.

To be honest, the house was expensive but since I am someone with high taste and nice Serene environment I had to risk it all.

This drained my finances for months now and I am thinking about summoning the courage and approaching him tomorrow for a loan but this is my first time.

Has anyone here ever borrowed money from his landlord before and the experience?

Who is your dealer?

If king david could do worse than this and didnt kill himself and was forgiven after getting punished, the why should he kill himself?

He shld av waited a bit longer to let another occurrence blow over his own..because In this life, wahala no dey finish.
One thing go surely happen wey go make his own be like child's play.

Because a book translated by a bisexual king told you that? Lol, besides who's taking your dumbass rainbow,the LGBTQ rainbow has 6 colors, yours have 7 and there's a pink color representing the feminine in the LGBTQ rainbow while yours don't have that so think again before speaking like the bigot you are,no one is stealing your dumbass rainbow

Funny thing about your tyoe is you take offence at everything.

Na u know wetin dey work u..
I said what i said..
Deal with it

Jehovah made the rainbow as a covenant between Him and the earth. Yet some unscrupulous devil incarnated bodies are trying to change the concept of the rainbow in today's world.

I remember growing up seeing the (picture of a) rainbow and feel excited at the wonder it exhibits. But seeing the picture of a rainbow today....may God help us.

Genesis 9:13-16 In-Context
13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind.

Talk to your niece.
Try to understand why she does the things she is doing.
You already did well by not telling on her with her parents or other older ones to avoid embarrassing her.

You would be surprise with the revelation that would ensue from what you get to hear from her of she pours her heart to you.

She sure needs help.. You might be the one to help her stop or overcome all these instead of one psycho or perv who would pry on her shortcomings out there.

Receive wisdom..

questioner:
My mum has people staying with her - my niece, an extended family member and a close family friend and her daughter.
We are okay with it cos it ensures she always has company and reduces the need to always travel to check on her.


Recently the monthly subscription I do on the router at home, which usually has carry over data by the time it expires, now lasts about a week before they start calling me to renew
Everybody in the house denied being the cause of the data drain.


Last week, I came to spend some days at my mum's and first thing I did was to install a network tracker to monitor.
Long story short, I discovered the excessive consumption was from my niece but that's not the major issue.
She was visiting porn sites which was draining data but that's still not the major prob.
My problem was the frequency and how long she spent on porn daily.


The day I came, after she retreated to her room, the porn streaming started and didn't stop until the family member sharing a room with her came back at night.
The next morning once the other lady left for work, she continued with the porn until it was time to leve for her lessons.
Once she came back in the afternoon, she did some chores, ate, sat around the sitting room for a while and went inside
and boom the porn resumed until the other girl came around hours later. This was practically the routine for the 4 days I stayed there.


The day I was to leave I told my mum that I observed the drain came from my niece and blocked her from the router.
She called my niece and questioned her but she denied knowing anything about it, I spared her blushes by saying sometimes apps have background processes that consume data without the owner knowing.


Ever since, I have been wondering if I handled the situation properly.
I didn't confront her about it cos I was concerned about the embarrassment she will feel for a male family to find out about her secret.
She might even assume I have told my mum or my elder bro (her dad), which might weigh her down emotionally.


Also, I am concerned if this is a sign of promiscuity, she will be 17 next month And aside the fact that she's quite tall, she might as well pass for a 14 year old. She's barely endowed for her age- bottomline, not the kind of girl, you will associate with waywardness.

My question is
1. Would it have been better if I had confronted her
2. Is this a possible sign of promiscuity ? - if so, I will suggest mum sends her back to her Dad cos I am not sure at her advanced age
she should be dealing with issues like this, to avoid stories that touch later on
