This was an IVF not AI

The hymen is already ruptured or partially ruptured, the fertility doctor has to transfer the embryo through her vagina to her uterine wall. I don’t know how he will manage that without at least a hole in the hymen for the catheter to pass through.

Anyways some people define virginity as no sexual activity, hymen intact or not.

Yes, IVF (hence my quote of the wiki on IVF). However, hymen is always partially ruptured, else how will menses flow out the uterus? If it was completely sealed, virgins would be in serious trouble*. So the catheter should not need a larger aperture than already present. But yes, there are different perceptions of what people define virginity to be.

*there are cases of imperforate hymen (which is actually a congenital problem where the hymen does obstruct the canal completely), that need to be cut surgically.

Some screws fell off her head while in prison, saying she's mad is an insult to mad people

Thank you. I was trying to understand the reason for this insanity, and realized that one really should not argue with an idiot.

that she's married or not won't change a thing . she should free Tobi.
Matter of fact, there will only be one winner.
Come to think of it 45 million naira for doing what exactly?

For entertaining Nigerians. They earned it. Is it not Nigerians spending 30 Naira per vote? If people didn't want them to have that money, they shouldn't give them that money.

Yinxies:
Please ooo. I don't seem to understand. She is a virgin and pregnant? How?

The definition of virgin is that one hasn't had intercourse, but that does not stop one from being pregnant:

"In vitro fertilization is used to allow spermatozoa to fertilize eggs in a culture dish before implanting the resulting embryo or embryos into the uterus of the prospective mother." - Wiki

I suppose this case is unusual because typical candidates for IVF have tried the natural methods - but apparently this one wants a child without a partner. I imagine that the hymen would be ruptured upon birth, unless she undergoes C-section, so she could be our very first virgin mother :-)

It's been used in animal husbandry for decades (e.g. pregnant virgin cows who give birth to calves with sperm that have been obtained from a single bull in order to improve resistance to disease, milk or meat yield).

12submarine:
Virgin, yet pregnant? Na artificial insemination?

Yes... I'm guessing you didn't read the article. But this will be the first true virgin birth

eodavids:
I am proud of Enugu, the Coal City State!

Me too... I always love to visit the serene, self-assured city of Enugu. It's getting relatively expensive though...

Abeg, let her make her music and blow here... then she can be a good example to others. Ultimately, it would be awesome for people to say "Hey, I want to make it in the Nigeria music industry". I'm already hearing other Africans saying the same about Nollywood. That would be a real success for us. Please don't jump on me and say I'm looking for external validation - our entertainment industry is wonderful and needs no validation. But just like people want to blow in US, it will only boost our recognition and economy if people want to blow in Nigeria.

As for people worried about her ability to survive in Nigeria... you know that Lebanese have been surviving, and thriving in this same country we natives are abusing. They see opportunity and make millions. Our typical people just want jobs so they can go and flex at club, refusing to see all the opportunities around them.

UltraMax:
By "well behaved" he didn't mean meek or subservient, he meant courteous and able to appreciate a man's worth. Everybody has a fantasy of what they think an ideal partner should be or be able to do. If you meet someone who doesn't fit perfectly into your fantasy man or woman, instead of making the person feel less than they are/rubbishing their self esteem, decide whether the person is worth adjusting your standards for or let the person know they're not your spec. Instead of making the person miserable due to your frustration at their inability to live up to your fantasy

Well said, very well said

State police in the Nigerian context will merely make our Governors much more powerful and oppressive to anybody that challenges them.
The nice thing about one national police is that since everybody - from commissioners all the way down to corporal - can be reposted, you don't get clannish loyalties that can get in the way of justice.

We don't need more security forces - we need to address the reasons for the clashes. Some people allege there's something sinister - that the clashes are being sponsored by some of our elites. I fail to see how a state police would suddenly solve that problem.

As for job creation... of what use is job creation when you don't get paid? Already our police forces are under equipped and underpaid. Now we're planning to have yet another drain on the state's coffers when they can't even pay salaries of existing staff. All I see is yet another branch of the security forces putting up roadblocks and demanding bribes, in addition to fights over territory and jurisdiction. The money spent on creating another force should be used instead to strengthen the existing ones.

Please, this requires a rethink, but as usual PMB has preferred yet another half-baked idea.

broke guys are not entitled to have an erection

Heh heh... you wee not kee me wee laff

OP, you mean, flower, in addition to the other stuff? Or just by itself? Where do u live? Abroad? Because you know for our girls... flower is like garnish... pleasant to have but not the reason for which we are gathered.

ReinaFarine:
But I seriously don't see the point of displaying the situation on social media. You've learnt your lesson, block off childish girls like her and continue.

Ah... in this #metoo era, we need more of this posted on social media oh... so we can see the catch-22 some girls want to put somebody in. Had the guy not "dulled", old girl might have caught buyer's remorse and instead accuse one of rape. Better by far to be called a dullard than to answer to rapist in a court room.

I understand and agree with your post, but I feel that this kind of mild schizophrenia should be exposed.

thesettingz:
Nice write up but not applicable to Nigerians where change in government or government polices affect our life's tremendously

But the landlord is in Nigeria... Collecting rent from hardworking Nigerians... What r u saying?

Hrm... no more snakes again? Did we eat them all?
Now we have two or three threads about monitor lizards hit front page in 24 hours.

Instead of reading how people are doing great things, I'm reading about monitor lizards being caught for soup.

You know what Elon Musk achieved yesterday? He probably had some toast or cereal, then proceeded to launch his own fully-electric vehicle on top of the world's largest launch rocket (also his); the booster stages automatically landed back on Earth safely. It was like something out of science fiction books.

The payload is bound for an elliptical orbit around the sun... his dream orbiting for the next million years - long long after we are gone. And this is somebody born in South Africa - albeit moved to the US to pursue his dreams. And we're still dealing with inconsistent light and no running tap water.

Abeg, where do I get off this bus of silliness called Nigeria?

stagger:
Too many air passengers are ignorant. Just the way I overheard one saying loudly that it was better to fly in the daytime than in the night so the pilot could see properly. I nearly fell off my seat in laughter. The guy obviously does not know that aircraft are flown with instruments and pilots have to be instrument-rated to fly commercial airlines.

But it is better to fly during the day, instruments or not. Especially in a country like Nigeria where you might be following the glide path in, and then power cut at the airport: suddenly NO ILS, NO runway lights, NO beacons, NO radio contact with the tower, no nothing. At least if this happens during the day, you can still see the runway.

City and highway lights can also serve as route guide at night... not so in Nigeria where the roads are pitch black and entire cities can be plunged into darkness at any time.

And what about emergency services in case something happens to the flight? Is it in Nigeria you expect anything to function at night?

Is this not dry season? This is normal for this time of year na.

This is when you start work early, then retreat into a cool place around 2, eat poundo yam with egusi and cow foot, and chillax with Hero till your madam starts looking for you. This heat too much

biacan:
Now Now listen well and listen carefully chikita smiley lesson number one according to the sisterhood never trust a man be it your husband cause they can do the unthinkable search his phone check his facebook,twitter,instagram and his call details this will help you go far in other to keep and protect what's yours.....don't let him use your head girl wise up now before it's too late

But seriously, what's the point of checking all his accounts and his phone? It doesn't mean jack. If the guy wants to do something, he will, checking or not. I'm not saying you should willingly remain ignorant, but all it will cause is uneccessary tension for you.

All the women who check bae's phone.. Do you really believe it prevented cheating?

What's more important is maintaining a healthy relationship. Unfortunately, guys do cheat, and there's no prediction of when or how. For the record girls do cheat too, except the do it more codedly or use words like "keeping my options open" to justify it.

All I know is that somebody's 2019 campaign funds just got larger to the tune of £578,080

I didn't say who oh... please don't put words in my mouth

XhosaNostra:
I hope she never gets married. Karma has a way of biting you in the ass.

Anyway, what he does with her, he'll end up doing it to her once he finds another new flavour of the moment, to get his dick wet. Fool!

... And how is that different from the fate of the loyal girlfriend or wife who is dumped for the new flavour? At least enjoy some free trips and the benefits of being the new flavour without the baggage...


It's men that encourage these attitudes with their ojukokoro, but I can't really blame them: it's common - indeed beneficial - in many societies (human and animal) for the big, resourceful alpha male to have many females in his care, who benefit from his largesse. It makes sense from many points of view, including raising all his young who are more likely to survive and have his alpha genes.

Why should only one female benefit? As in one man, one woman ? This is an unnatural (as in not found in nature) imposition of poor, celibate men who inspired scripture who didn't understand how life really works.

RIP Ranti Funsho Akinfolarin

That's why I can't blame people for partying and living today like it's their last. We just never know.

Heh, just u wait 10 years... you'll be complaining of putting on weight.

I used to be a skinny 23 year-old once... complaining about my skinny forearms and legs. Now I can't seem to lose what has gathered.

Seriously, just enjoy this phase of your life, no need to change your diet. So far as you're not sick or starving... you'll be OK. You'll have the rest of your life to gain weight.

Bossontop:

So NIPOST iz still working....i 4got about dem oo

My broda... the last time I, myself, entered NIPOST office to buy stamp must have been over 10 years ago. I'm still shocked to see a letter with NIPOST stamp... it's as rare as public water.

Does FIRS collect revenue from Customs or FGCs? If so, then there's precedent and stamp revenues should be handed over. If not... well, that's what lawmakers are for abi... let them make the law instead of just sitting there taking pictures of themselves with cars (like that one whose name rhymes with milo)

And what are all these able-bodied students doing? Are they not the ones who litter, and break public facilities?

They can't say, "OK we ourselves will dig a pit for trash and organize ourselves to cleanup. We should also encourage each other not to litter".
They can't say, "OK, these water tanks and stands are filthy... let us wash and bleach it"

Chemistry students can't clean up after themselves and keep their OWN lab clean and neat?
Architecture students can't be bothered to look for screws to reattach desktops? Or band together and get plywood?
Students can't be bothered to remove the old postings and scrub the walls clean?
Students can't be bothered to keep their OWN grounds neat and organized?

What's the student union in these schools doing? Sitting around jisting and flinging groundnut husks and empty pure water sachets around. What happened to all the dues students pay?

Sure, there's the issue of lack of budget, corruption, and diversion of funds in the administration, but I think the fact that the students can't organize and get off their lazy ass to fix some of the simpler issues, is symptomatic of the Nigerian problem at large, where most people want things done for them, where they can't ask "what can I do to improve things". Only to party and look for somebody to support their lazy, selfish, self-pitying selves, and then get upset when there's no handout.

Where's the self-motivation to improve yourselves? Are these our future leaders? Those who will not standup to fix those easy things that can be accomplished in a few weekends?

It's this same mentality that sees a huge mansion with fancy cars, yet the access road to it is all-but impassible. It's this same mentality that leads to washing your hands with Andre, yet your brother/sister/mother is lucky to see garri to eat. Or you will floss with the latest phone, yet you will be begging for indomie. Misplaced priorities, unwillingness to see beyond the here and now, inability for self-directed improvement, and a depressing inability to plan for the future (beyond I want a job that pays well so I can buy car and party all weekend).

We are our own worst enemies, from how we pick our leaders, to how we treat each other, to how we maintain and improve our environments.

This is to all atheist on this platform.

I hope God will open your eyes to know how magnificent and omniscience He is.

Cute boy, go into the world and excel.

But why does the photobombing boy not look like the toddler in the wedding photoshoot?


And what has this got to do with belief? If we're to take it to its logical conclusion, this same God lets innocents be brutally murdered (while coming from Church, or even while in Church) while "blessing" a few with a fleeting career... what should we conclude from that?

salbis:
Impressive i must say. But the groom come carry strong face follow.

That's what I was thinking oh... that face strong well well. Dem dey force am?

Lol doesn’t work trust me...... stop gassing these boys Toks ..

Did that work for u be honest

Happy saturday sir

To be fair he said: "but there is one sure way to make her crave for your attention if she really wants you but if she does not want you,she will still crave for your attention in a subliminal manner even if she pretends not to worry."

Meaning the girl may already have some interest, but she isn't really feeling the guy; this is a way to heighten that interest. Of course if there's zero interest (zero times something will still be zero)...

As for me, I don't believe a word a woman says or writes about how she won't do this or that. Until you're actually in the situation will you know your true response. Oh... you're probably going to backwards rationalize past situations to fit your desired reality, and will use that an example of "it didn't work with me"

TheTrueApostle:
Blacks are hopeless animals, calling them animals is even an insult to animals.. They are low-lives savages

I understand your sentiment... but consider all the wars, genocide, and deaths visited upon Europeans, by Europeans, from 1600s to 1945 and beyond, just to put your statement in context. It's a human problem.

Off all the people you want to jump on it's Davido huh? A very talented, charismatic and hardworking entertainer? You think it's his daddy's name that people are going to concerts to hear, or opening youtube to see? People spend money on tickets because of his father? If I hear...

Anyways, he calls himself OBO, Davids, HKN Gang.... I don't remember him announcing in his songs that he is David Adeleke... in fact, I would say he is the one that made his father's name famous worldwide!

Like Florence (Dj. Cuppy) once said, people are going to drag your daddy's wealth and discredit the child's talent, so Davido beat them to the punch and said, "yes, I am OBO. Now that's over with, Ema Dami Duro..."

One of the few agencies in Nigeria one can be proud of...

Goke7:
this is the issue I have with this dangote thing, very soon he will be only one selling refined fuel to all Nigerians thereby controlling the entire economy, next thing will be electricity chai, na only him waka come. Am sacred cos one day there will be no elections and this man will just emerge as Life President of the country from the blues. Not good at all

... and whose fault is it that other people with any significant amount of money in Nigeria are still spending it abroad, or on expensive real estate, instead of industrial activity?

Zoehill:
Dangote is being empowered by the elites to secure their future...........WHY CANT THE GOVERNMENT EXECUTE THE SOLAR PROJECT IN ALL THE SIX GEO-ZONES TO AMELIORATE THE MASSES SUFFERING.
our leaders are poor in reasoning

For the same reason they can't put gas power plants in the north... certain projects are better suited for certain climatic zones. Because of the constant cloud cover and smog, solar is not very efficient in the south. It works, but will work much more efficiently in dry places with direct sunshine.

Sunshine, not heat, is what makes solar work, though this investment, no matter where - is very welcome. As the poster above said, this would happen if business individuals from each zone approached their own states for land and put their own money into it.


That said, I wish the governments would coordinate their efforts better: There's a Solar panel development institute (a part of NASENI) in Karchi, Abuja, that has been making panels for some years now... this would have been a golden opportunity to massively boost its production output and also push forward our manufacturing capabilities.

SalamRushdie:
No man can be happy in such a relationship abeg ..that Tiwa is a witch

Er... come again? From what I've heard and observed... the guy brought the trouble to his own head. Buying things he can't afford, cheating his own wife of funds, also cheating on her with other chicks, owing people without telling her just so he could live like a big boy on somebody else's hard work, etc.

This is the kind of guy if you see, you would be best just to avoid his tornado of willful self-destruction.
