Probably been transported for slave labour or terrorist indoctrination programs. |
ajokebelle:You know what the male gender do ? They lynch suspect! |
If they will not be staying in the same geographical location, they can go ahead with the love, otherwise, she should run for her life. |
TrumporIdie:Please what research are you talking about ? Do you think Nairalanders are dumb to take your word for it ? And who told you that being broke equals genuine love ? Are there no cases of men who become rich and decide to upgrade by dumping their struggle-together lover ? Go to igando customary court and inquire about the divorce cases, you will be shocked to learn that poor men are as likely to treat their wive badly as rich men. |
This same question have been asked several times on Nairaland. I am assuming the OP is one of those jobless guys who whines about girls not dating broke guys. @OP , you should focus on your own life. |
alexialin:Believing either of the story is a wrong approach, mercy never accused anyone of crashing her her marriage but you already jump into conclusion that she did just because some online bloggers says so for your own personal reasons. |
There is always a reason for committing crime. |
This isn't a whistle-blowing case gone wrong as the title suggests, it is a feud between an ex-employee and his former colleagues, he should have contacted efcc with evidence instead of publishing a book and endangering his own life. |
Tallesty1:Well, she is wrong in making up unfounded statistics to back up her point but some set of men who accuses women of bringing nothing to the table will still be the one to cry foul if the wife becomes wealthier. I don't know where this mentality is from but I have this to say about it.Here you commit the same offence as the lady you quoted, how many Nigerian men do you know to make such a baseless generalisation. The type of woman that only feels good about herself if she makes you feel less than her.This trait is primarily a male one as you hardly find women who whine about not being in charge of their home. These are the women that my brothers are scared of. It is called being careful and not insecurity.Please speak for yourself as you are not a standard of behaviour for all men. And for your information, it isn't just Nigeria men, if a host of studies are to be believed, marrying these women(career women) is asking for trouble.You are right insecure and possessive men are found everywhere in the world. If they quit their jobs and stay home with the kids, they will be unhappy ( Journal of Marriage and Family, 2003).You should have included the full reference here so that others can check. Mind you when a large segment of women are working(60% are part of the workforce in the US), is it any surprise that those who are not are less happier ? It is called peer pressure and has nothing to do with gender but humans in general. They will be unhappy if they make more money than you do ( Social Forces, 2006).Since women wants control over everything as you claimed don't you think they should be ecstatic that they make more money ? You will be unhappy if they make more money than you do ( Journal of Marriage and Family, 2001).It is normal for men who feel they are losing control of their home to feel unhappy. Even your house will be dirtier ( Institute for Social Research).Again context matters, please provide the full reference. But will you be surprised that a full time housewife care more for her surroundings ? Have you seen that it just isn't a Nigeria thing?Of course it is not, but that doesn't make it right either. Now can we the stats to back your ridiculous 99.9$ nonsense?Of course her stat has no factual basis. The same studies have found that professional women are more likely to get divorced, more likely to cheat, less likely to have children, and, if they do have kids, they are more likely to be unhappy about it.Sorry to burst your bubble you just picked out a statement that support your position and excluding the context, here is a part of the forbes article I presume you referenced: forbes: highly educated people are more likely to have had extra-marital sex," and "individuals who earn more than $30,000 a year are more likely to cheat."So, if career women are bad marriage bets, so are career men. And let me leave you with this rebuttal to your reference here: Forbes' definition of a career woman is extraordinarily broad, including any woman who has a college education, works 35 hours a week, and makes more than $30,000. So, if you define non-career women as all the "undereducated" who work part-time and make less than $30K, it becomes painfully obvious why female careerists are more likely to divorce than non-careerists: They can better afford to get out of an unhappy marriage than their sisters. Men are not scared of women with wealth, they're simply not ready for their endless troubles.At the bold, speak for yourself. Now lemme bring it down to Nigeria women.Again, you paint a picture of all richer women based on a subjective observation. When wealth disparity is obvious, this behaviour may be exhibited by the family whether in a man or woman as people generally tend to marry within their social group and those who don't may be resisted by their in-laws. Then I ask if someone isn't welcome in a family , why try to prove himself when he can just walk away ? The mama will be like, "My daughter, that guy is after your money. He's not good for you, wait my dear, when a good guy comes I will tell you".The last time I checked women gets tagged as gold-diggers more often than men for obvious reasons. Finally, these women, especially those working in an office or something of that nature do not know that there are things one needs to succeed in business and work.An easy way to solve this problem is to marry an housewife and maybe get a written agreement that she will never go into business so that your ego won't be bruised. Women Naturally want to exert control over everything. They enjoy to make those around them feel inadequate, insecure, nervous, angry, anxious and physically sick.This is a false statement, control and dominance is the perogative of males, some men can go to the extreme to exert control over their wife. Are you aware that a third of women murders in the US is caused by their male partners ? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/09/men-killing-women-domesti_n_5927140.html And it is primarily for ego, ownership and control reasons. So women naturally wants control theory does not hold water. Go to married men that have richer wives and ask them, they will tell you that the message their women pass in everything they do is I don’t trust you to be able to do it right; I don’t respect your judgment; I don’t think you are competent; I don’t value your insight. I can do it all alone.Again, you break your own rule can you point to any survey you did that confirm your position. You should never have responded if you also believe in making wild assumptions about people you know little about. Stay Alone Then.This is a choice any woman can make. If you're rich and no man wants to marry you, it's because you're not good.It is as if you know her personally, but if you don't this is a misplaced advice as it adds nothing to the discussion except to make your opponent look bad. According the op, the women was sent parking because she was rich, and I ask, all these poor broke ladies that gets divorced all the time, is it their wealth that intimidated their husbands?Because broke ladies got divorced doesn't mean a woman can't be sent parking because she is richer than her husband. There are no rules on reason why divorce should occur. Someone could be divorced because of cheating while another due to "lack of respect"or both, they are not always mutually exclusive. So men should marry women that fits their description of a wife so as not to end up as frustrated whiners who complain bitterly about how bad women are. |
LanreDaMan:People lose their job, wealth and positions and it has nothing to do with being married, single or divorced. Life happens and it is not some evil spiritual people that are responsible. It is easy to point fingers instead of taking responsibility for ones failure. I am sure you won't blame the man if the wife was the civil servant who lost his job and the husband becomes a wealthy pure water merchant. |
warriorPedigree:That holds no water under the british jurisdiction I'm attracted to enlightened women, I will seduce their mind , win them over and yes she will see me as a god.This is a recipe for disaster, I hope you don't turn out to be one of those frustrated men who use every opportunity to castigate women and lament on how ungrateful and ill-mannered their wife is when their purported slave opts for freedom. You are better off sticking with the unexposed girls who are content with worshipping their husband. |
timmyalonge:Don't let anyone fool you, Yorubas and most other african tribes are indigenous Africans not migrants. It is the inferiority complex of some individuals that make them fabricate stories for a non-existent arab origin. |
Not all this words are derived from arabic, it would have been better if OP attached a reference from a reputable journal to back up his claims. |
Elagancy:Can't you just stay on topic for once ? If I told you about a rift that happened between awujale and Ooni, I am sure you will find another benin-linked story to tell instead of defending your original claim. |
Elagancy:The show off is a personal issue, if you know anything about Yoruba history you will know that the respect for Ooni's stool is an heritage one not power-based. In fact their are many instances in history where Ooni and some yoruba kings were at loggerhead, a popular one being the face of between the late Alaafin and the late Ooni. Baghdad once conquered and ruled spain that doesn't make spain subservient to Baghdad, in fact, in modern times most people who were once ruled view their conquerors as enemies to be treated with scorn not as superior. Next time you should deploy better "theories" to prove your points instead of writing long epistles which adds nothing to the discussion at hand. |
warriorPedigree:You obviously know nothing about this case, if the wife want to ruin him, she could have easily done so in the UK instead of the quiet divorce. If you want a slave as a wife make sure you marry one with that mentality, not that you will engage with an enlightened woman and still expect her to see you as her god. |
Igboesika: Papiikush: lastmaster: baddestkayy:So none of you was smart enough to ask for the details of the case ? Juveniles do end up in jail everywhere in the world if they commit serious offences. |
twilliamx:Second chance is a worn out cliche used by criminals to attract sympathy. Death sentences are handed to murderers that deserve no "second chance" because of the enormity of their crimes. He should never be released, the victim has no prospect of second chance, so the killer pastor should rot in jail. The reason why criminals who murder their victims are so bold these days is because Nigeria hardly executes condemned inmates. They are left to enjoy their life in prison and even some get released while their victims life and aspirations has been terminated. Anybody that don't want to be punished should not draw the first blood. |
Pardoning a cold-blooded killer will send a wrong message that you can commit murder and get pardoned in 3 years. |
He has probably "settled" the DPO, get human rights activist involved. |
mytym:As to the name of the doctor, that is public knowledge which you alluded to in your initial conspiracy theory; They needed a fall guy....Now tagged him "quack"and his name add nothing to the discussion, the important thing is that he exists and has been arrested, you could easily have googled the name if you consider it that important. 2. Adelekes vehicle was gased at Kuta on Saturday.With your two points above, this debate is over, passing off opinion and hearsay as a fact only points to your unwillingness to have a factual debate. Making categorical statements with nothing to back it up only works in a shouting contest not a civil discourse. |
mytym:I ask again, the woman has no name, no family, no body ? You should be the one educating the less-informed folks that are spreading unfounded rumours not the other way round. |
mytym:I am not your regular gullible folk, you have to provide proof for yours conjectures or eat your words. As I said before, anyone can speculate but very few has any facts to back it up. APC women leader dead ? no name, no medical report ? The APC women leader(Alhaja Kudirat Fakokunde) in Osun state is alive, hail and hearty. |
FFK is nothing but a conspiracy theorist, his writing is always about some spirit theory or some evil cabal somewhere, nothing intellectual. I think he needs help. |
MURIC is beating the drum of war, when their foot soldiers listen and start to cause chaos, these thoughtless leaders will come out to say that Islam has nothing to do with violence. The same way some northern elders called for violence and now they have a monster(boko haram) which is out of control. |
stunnert:You may end up in kirikiri if you don't desist. |
Another cave man on the lose, it seems we have lots of them in Nigeria. |
KaptainAfrika:Did you legitimately made your wealth if you have any ? Any fool can speculate because it takes so much energy to think. |
DONSMITH123:People can only speculate regarding the "circumstances", but what we are sure of is that he died of overdose-induced heart failure. |
Another life lost to the "Endurance" crew, women must understand that being happy and living in peace is a right that must never be sacrificed for an ungrateful brute. |
DONSMITH123:Heart ailments does not show on the face and you can't possibly know who is hale and hearty by physical appearance a case in point is coach Ugo Ehiogu who died of heart attack. Who could know from mere appearance that a physically fit individual like Ugo can have an heart attack ? |
