I won't see it a problem helping my wife with chores at home..its no big deal for me.

True, it is not a big deal. But when she gives u order to do some or any of those chores then it becomes an issue and big deal.

I am waiting for a responsible senator to move the motion that saraki should step down as Senate president over Offa rubbery

Before you quote me, remember that in advance and more civilized country he would have resigned

What about corpers who lost their lives in 2011 because thugs loyal to buhari went on killing spray cos he (Buhari) lost elections.
In a sane and civilized nation Buhari can never be president.

YOUR MUMU NEVER DO
YOU ARE A COMPLETE MADMAN
THOSE WERE THE REAL ROBBERS ARRESTED THROUGH THE FOOTAGE OF CCTV CAMERAS.
YOU ARE NOW TALKING ABOUT BEING CAJOLE .
YOUR BRAIN IS TRULY REVERSED.

I am not here to defend any politician so I don't have ur time.
Just mention one prominent politician without thugs either directly or by proxy.
This is Nigeria my friend.

oyetunder:
Some Nigerians will come here to defend Saraki to the last... This is one Nation where you will see able bodied men willing to die for politicians who rendered them useless. We all know how politicians always supply weapons of death to thugs...such weapons become the properties of such criminals to use for deadlier crimes when elections are over. If it is true they mentioned Saraki, let him face investigations. Until we are ready to punish politicians for their evil deeds...we cannot move an inch forward

This is not about defending saraki, rather the truthfulness and sincerity of the statement by the suspect. Never under estimate what the police can do, they can cajole a person to confess to crime they never committed.
By the way, majority of Nigerian political class have thugs and boys working for them either directly or by proxy....including Mr Buhari. In 2011 young people killed because he lost elections, suffice to say hence, they were his empowered thugs.
May God's peace find Nigeria.

Gone are the days, when a woman will see her husband and she will submit to him and to his instructions wholeheartedly but not days again.

Even the Bible says wife should be submissive to her husband.
Ephesians 5:22-33 New International Version (NIV)
22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

A man will give simple instructions to his wife or girlfriend they will still find it hard to obey him or listen to his instructions.

Amaka don't do this! She will still do that.

Mama Emeka shut up when I'm talking! She will talk 50 times before the man will say two statement.

Ma victor you didn't wash my clothes! Do I look like your house maid.

You girls should be respectful and obedient to your husband or boyfriend

This is the main reason why domestic violence and divorce is on the rise.
God help us.

You are the one who should stop the propaganda, are Muslim men the only men who are polygamous? Many cultures permits the practice of polygamy where men could marry as many women as they want at thesame time unlike in Islam where the limit is 4 at a time.
Islam is not a religion of hypocrisy where a man who is polygamous in nature would only be permitted to marry one wife which results in cases of adultery.
Yes you are right women have separate chamber behind men in the mosque because everyone is there for the worship, the physical contact between men and women is unnecessary as that could lead to distractions, so Islam knowing the nature of men to be easily distracted by the opposite sex allows women to pray behind men in order to minimise the distractions during prayers. Mosques are not like churches where there is mix up between both sexes leading to temptations in the house of God.

You didn't address the issue of whether Muslim men have the right to divorce any of his 4 four wives and replace her or indeed if he can divorce all and replace them. This means that a Muslim man can marry as many women he can provided he does not habour more than 4 women under his roof.
Your argument of distraction is lame. A serious minded man who goes to worship will do all he can be be distracted. Truth is Islam relegate women and that's a fact.
Selah.

carinmom:
You are not a Christian and definitely not a Muslim. Your judgement of women's position in Islam is myopic, i guess you know nothing about that save what you read on papers written by Islam hating media or what you see in the bad eggs among Muslims.
FYI, Muslim men are only allowed to marry up to 4 wives if they so wish and have the means to cater for them, not as many as they want as you have claimed in your comment.
And who says Muslim women don't have voice but are always relegated to the background? Go make your research lady. Muslim women in the past had been actively involved in the growth of Islam, they were never relegated to the background, there were teachers, nurses etc among them.
Back to the present, why do we now have muslim women that are doctors, lawyers, engineers, pilots etc? Are they non Muslims too? Because according to you, its against Islam?

Oga, stop this propaganda.
A Muslim man is permitted to have up to 4 wives only under his care. If he chose he can divorce one and replace her or even divorce all and replace them.
If u claim women are not relegated in Islam, then why do the women have a separate chamber behind the men in the mosque...huh??

yarimo:
that thrash up their can't and will never make FP

Oh, you are one of the moderators Abi.

Where is the moderator to push this piece to front page.
If it's pro Buhari article, they will do the needful quickly.

You see, some property can be very malicious. There is no place in that article that mentions GEJ or presidency as at then. Read carefully u will see where #20B was introduced, and by who?
The article went further to say that "we insisted it was dropped" and it concluded by saying it was further reduced by #3B and it became a price.
Do how is it that GEJ bribed NAS.
This is plain stupidity by the op.
If Buhari is demonized they will start crying wolf.

Nice word. So many people r getting married because of children, money n time (especially girls ask linda) not because of love. My believe has always been "let love find yhu". As a young man of 27 I don't have a girlfriend not because I can't but because I am sitting waiting for the my love to come. Yes I am sitting. Of course I do relate with girls, but I am not putting force. If I approach you to be a friend and u r acting reluctant n running away. I move on. I know one day there will be one that I will approach and I will not force myself for attention and I will get it. That girl will be my wife. My advice to young guys is don't waste your time toasting a lady upandan. Sit

Love alone does not sustain marriage, it is just one pillar.
We all have our flaws do we must learn to tolerate and forgive.

All Parallel Congress = APC
They just exhibiting their acronym.
72 State chairmen, first of its kind I ever heard.
Jokers!!!

yipata:
UR WRONG, It just means they are transparent and it's a sign that they are growing. Also it's better it's happening now than postpone it and will have to deal with a much more fatter problem. If they pass this thier short test, well then we can trust them with the election. But if not........ Then we can't.


I'm

NY friend will u keep quiet.
Stop processing rubbish, if were the opposition party would u reason same way.
Typical Zombie.

I don't even know why the govt paid, When he was in power he could have used his good office to build such hospital but NOP, now he was flown abroad. This should be a lesson to those in power, you might need help one day!

Wow!! So what about the dullard that runs to UK for just headache and fever in the name of check up.
You are just plain foolish!!!

[quote author=drezzyx post=67688609]Imagine if you married a guy…but then realised he had bad habits that couldn’t be cured? In this article, Beauty and Tips takes a look at why you need to avoid guys with these 10 habits.

Prince Charming might have flaws, but he doesn’t have bad habits that can ruin a relationship. While it’s impossible to find the absolute perfect man (we’ve looked, he doesn’t exist) that doesn’t mean you should drop your standards and marry a guy who has annoyingly bad habits. For a man to be marriage material, he has to be completely the right man for you. Sure, he will still have flaws (don’t we all?), but flaws are different from habits. Habits are things we’ve learned to do over the years; they’re ingrained in our behaviour and we do them automatically. Not only can they annoy you, but it’s also practically impossible to get a man to change his ways. If a guy has some of the following 10 habits? He isn’t marriage material.

He’s Full Of Excuses

He can’t just give you a straight answer for why he let you down, and instead resorts to his Big Book Of Boyfriend Excuses. Each time he makes an excuse, he’s displaying his immaturity to you. Moreover, there is a good chance he’s lying. Excuses are the resort of children – and you want to marry a man, not a child.

He’s Narrow Minded

Guys who are narrow minded really frustrate us, don’t they? We just wish they would be more open to doing something other than watching sports all weekend, and we wish they would stop making snap, judgemental comments about people. Some guys can seem to be the most open-minded people about certain topics, but become closed off when it comes to other topics. And it’s really annoying because it can contaminate your relationship. For example, imagine you want to hang out with a guy friend you haven’t seen for a while. You know what this guy is all about, and you know what his “intentions” are – to hang out and catch up! Meanwhile, your partner mistrusts him, tells you all guys just want sex from you and won’t let you see him. If your man is still stuck in the 19th century with his close-minded views, he’s hardly worth marrying.

He Shouts

Any guy who has a habit of exploding with anger is a no-go as far as Beauty and Tips is concerned. If you’ve met a man who shouts, screams and verbally abuses people, stay well away from him.

He Breaks Promises

If your man casually breaks promises with you all the time, it isn’t a good sign. What this should tell you is that this is a bad habit he’s picked up down the years and is unlikely to change anytime soon. Broken promises are frustrating. If he breaks a promise early on in the relationship, it’s not a huge deal. But if he keeps doing it, you need to take this as the huge red flag that it is. In simple English, he’s disrespecting you and the relationship, and taking you for a fool. It’s a sign that he doesn’t care enough about you (or anyone for that matter) and probably won’t be changing in the foreseeable future. After all, he doesn’t seem to see it as a problem. But as the movies teach us, those who break their promises suck (it’s usually dad’s breaking their promises to their kids, and yes, they suck. And can you imagine what would happen if you guys had kids and he broke his promises to them, too?!)

He Lies

Breaking a promise is one thing, but if he brazenly lies to your face and you know it’s a clear lie, it’s a major warning sign that this is a guy you can’t trust. Lying is a bad habit that’s easy to get into and hard to get out of. If you’ve caught your man lying red-handed on more than one occasion, you’ll need to consider the very real possibility that he isn’t worth marrying.

He Doesn’t Put You First

If a man doesn’t put you first, you have to ask yourself the question – when will he put me first? The answer is probably never. Guys who don’t prioritise their women are instead in the habit of prioritising their buddies, their work or their hobbies. Love comes last, and if it’s always been this way in your relationship, there is a good chance that it won’t change.

He’s Possessive

It’s okay for someone to be a tad possessive at first. It’s even kinda cute. But you two have been together a while and he’s still being extra clingy, it’s a habit he’s probably not going to break. In fact, it probably means he’s a control freak. And that kind of man isn’t worth walking down the altar with.

He Likes To Win Arguments

If he gets a smug sense of satisfaction whenever he wins an argument between you guys and literally hates the fact that even once he could be wrong, it’s a bad habit that you should take as a red flag. No one in a relationship should go into an argument wanting to win. Instead, the goal should be a resolution that suits both parties. If your partner always has to be right? He isn’t worth your time.

He Won’t Take Responsibility

When we refuse to acknowledge our mistakes and take for responsibility for something that was OUR fault, we’re behaving like children. Worse still, we’re passing the blame onto someone else. Even worse, we’re not giving ourselves the chance to learn from our mistakes. If this sounds a lot like your man, he isn’t marriage material at this point.

He Has An Unhealthy Lifestyle

If he drinks and smokes too much while you’re trying to lead a healthier life, it’s a strong sign that you guys aren’t meant to be. Sure, he could cut down on his drinking and quit smoking. But if he’s tried in the past to no avail, it might be best if you avoid this kind of guy.

Stay happy!

The same should apply to women.
Guy any woman that have such dirty habit should be dumped. But until the nunu is destroyed.

I wish them well and that the process ends peacefully.
Why did other party boycott the election??
Maybe because we already know who and who will emerge winner.

serikigoro:
Fayose has elevated semi thugs to the highest level of state governance all in a desperate bid to cover up his tracks. People's governor that is owing workers over 7months salary arrears despite all the unprecedented bail out funds given to him in the last 3yrs. When Segun Oni becomes governor both Eleka and Fayose will spend their "second" term in prison

My friend will u keep quiet?
Mention just 5 APC governors that have settled staff salary even with the bail out funds.

LaCruzz:
Sex na food??

Haba...na food ooo as long as blood runs in her veins.
Don't come here making noise when ur eventual husband starves u sex for just one month.

MrChad:

Ask ur common sense.

When u dey BBNAIJA house dey do open and secret romance, what do u expect.
U won't consider marriage anytime soon cos no man in his right senses will take u serious.
Deal with it.

Hennepin:
Let the lies begin. He might be suffering from the early stages of dementia.

Modified: I urge you to watch the video. This is a very misleading headline. Nonsense OP

Guy what are u saying, Mr Buhari stated in the video that Nigerian Herders carry stick and machete occasionally. He also mention Gaddafi trained men who may be responsible for the killings.
So don't talk rubbish.

Monkey, are u the one servicing his wife or did she complain to you ni.
Let us hear from ur own wife first.
Foooool.

prince3009:
Stop that!

I once used N5,000 to prepare 2 different soups and stew!

Half a kilo of chicken: N650
Vegetable oil (a margarine cup): N100
2 Wraps of Thyme: N60 (N30 Each)
Spinach leaves: N100
28 Pieces of big ripe tomatoes: N350
3 big round onions: N150
2 pieces of Local Maggi (Okpehi or Dawadawa) (I don't use Cubes because of Sodium content): N100
Ugu leaves: N200
2 cups of melon seeds (Egusi): N140
Palm Oil (half Eva): N300
Okra: N100
Two Titus Fishes: N500
Half a kilo of Goat meat: N500
I big Stock Fish Head: N700
Cray fish (1 margarine cup):N400

TOTAL: N4,350

I already had other stuff at home like turmeric powder which I use instead of curry, salt, garlic, ginger and Semo powder and wheat powder.

I used the fish for the Okro, Goat meat and the stock fish head for the egusi, and chicken for the stew. I have my blender at home so I blend instead of grind!

So let's say I don't have a blender and decided to grind the tomatoes in the market, it won't cost me more than N100.

For people who swallow garri (I don't...i even prefer akpu)...let's say 4 or 5 cups of garri: N250

Won't it still be in the neighborhood of the same N5,000?

I cooked and filled my food plastics and I consume these things for almost 2 weeks. The two guests that had the opportunity to visit me and I served them meals were swearing that it was a woman who cooked everything because it was sooo sweet!

The thing is...most women (esp Nigerian women) are bad managers of finance!
They can't utilize money given to them to buy ordinary foodstuff talk less of managing their homes properly.

It is understandable that some still do "apriko" (keeping extra cash) from the overhead costs of what is to be bought but I should be done with conscience especially when you know your husband is not too financially buoyant.

Some are bad cooks! You will give them N50,000 and they will still cook crap that even a refuse scavenging dog can't eat!

Kudos to my mum (may her gentle soul rest in peace) whom I learnt all these from!

Cc: @nezer83

Good one my brother thank God am not the only one here. God bless all good mothers who train their son to good in the kitchen.
@ishilove beans grain was not part of the 5k rather the ingredients for the beans.
I wonder why it's difficult for girls here to believe that one can make 2 good soup with 5k..smh seriously.

All the women shouting stingy, I know u secretly Pray to have a man like me in your life..that a man goes to the market does mean he is stingy.
Like I said, my woman is not around and I needed food that will last me for 2 weeks rather than eating out.
I already planned what and what to cook, made a list and armed myself with a little above same amount I give to bae, I was surprised to have bought all on my list with about 5k.
For ur info I make good food and my woman knows that...no woman can put in tight corner cos of food and house chores except za oza rom activity.
Babes should b sincere to us and stop padding the kitchen budget in the name of things are expensive in the market, after all we give them pocket money.

Ishilove:
I know what obtains in the market and the last time I bought a tuber of yam for 400 was July 2017.

Well, it all depends on ur market location.
Truly I got a good tuber for #400

Ishilove:
Hian, which yam did you buy for 400 naira bikonu?? Abi are you mistaking potatoes for yam?!

Madam stroll into the market biko
And make ur findings.

clems93:
If the OP already has stuffs like oil,maggi,salt and their likes, then I think it is possible to buy all the items he listed for 5k.

Thank u oooo.
I only went to make to get perishables except salt, maggi, oil, crayfish.
This has been my usual practice so I give my bae money for only perishables which is never enough for her

tabithababy:
.

Plus vegetable again from the same 5k
Tuale baba

Madam, with #200 u can get much vegetables to make goo soup.
Except u don't know.

Ishilove:
Did you buy the tuber of yam from the 5k?

In short, guy, tell us the soups you prepared and the condiments added let us know how you performed this magic.

Haha yes Madam I bought the yam tuber from the 5k with #400.
I prepared Egusi soup with meat, fresh periwinkle, vegetables and stock fish and okro with fresh fish.
I still had left over meat to make veg sauce.
Still from the 5k I got one paint of garri.
Don't doubt me woman.
I Sabi price market wella.
