Elliotwaveforec:
Wow! So Aje in my Oyo dialect means Oku in Ijebu. Jeez!

Reason why there are lots of Oku names in Ijebu. Okusanya, okunuga, okunnowo.

I always wondered if it the Oku in those names means corpse, it just didn't tally with the rest of the name.

I know iga- is palace always wondered if okunuga was corpse in the palace.

If it means God of wealth I. E Aje it still makes sense.

I am Ijebu.

Wowzerfull so enlightening


I also think lack of ami ohun while writing these names in Yoruba language aided in the misconception of names, If names are spelt with their amin ohun I. E tonation one might not make those mistakes.

Very very insightful, names we have given different meanings from what they originally mean.

Kudos OP. These are educative topics that should be discussed here jare.

God help marriages these days, it is well.

This kind Nurse full everywhere.

Poverty, ignorance, proximity of Good Medical Facilities are making them thrive.

Same thing with the blooming Chemist/Pharmacy around you. 99% of these guys don't know nothing aside selling you fake stuff.

Just pray you don't have an emergency.

Na so Dem dey call one guy Doctor for my side, I had only one interaction with him and I told my wife that he is not a Doctor. Found out the guy was once worked as a Lab Attendant!

He is Training Nurses in a facility at his house. All dressed up in starched up uniform and they pay him for the Training too!

Almost everything dey casted in this country.

They now learn nursing as work, just like you learn tailoring.
See all those quack private hospitals avoid them, some of them are the ones doing the training sef.
There's a reason why some people will either go to established private hospitals or general hospitals, even govt health center won't employ quack aka Abe-Ile nurse

The Nurses association needs to do something about this urgently.

3 generations of excellence, see the consistency...

May we leave a good legacy for our children.

One at a time. . . . Our NL oldies were so fun. Like everything else, you can only survive a storm IF your hands are clean and you have a BIG GOD. That is NL too, because NL is a JUNGLE. . . . only the strong survive.

Yeah oo.

Where is tpia, just remembering her makes me laugh.

KanwuliaExtra has gone to dig up old threads

One other drama was the bbabe3 c.oogarr matter.

The aproko carry me from family section to sports section, pages upon pages.

Chai, when Family section was family section. Always plenty drama.

Nawa ooo.

Na real wa.

sharone21:
If I remember clearly, there was an episode of Gulder Ultimate search where Chioma Chukwuka disappointed fans with her character.

Omotola ha not been out of controversy including her hubby.... There were rumors flying up and down.

Reggy was lucky she found Rudolph, I remembered then he was still this hair plaiting black American guy, at a time it was even like they almost divorced but we thank God.... I think he even had an acciden at a time which was a life re-setting encounter for him.

Truth is many of them were able to turn the lemons life threw at them to lemonades and not just being discouraged by the 'process' in between.

You remembered the story true true. Those days of ecomium magazine and other gossip magazine ( don't even know if ecomium is still existing in this internet time)

Loool when he was busy making inciting statements, he didn't know. You were inciting Muslims against chrstains in southwest when you know most families have a mix of both religions. This man's statements would have caused great havoc if it were some other ethnic groups. Yoruba people were just ignoring him.

It's an invitation honor it, they don't bite.

pocohantas:
I am even shocked someone is Cc-ing me on this. I would never understand why they do that. I have said it here that except you are a Linda Ikeji, you would crumble. Even Linda wanted the man involved but he refused.

Asides the fact that a child needs a balance of both parents, it is TOXIC to restrict the child’s access to the other parent. Sometimes they grow to idolise the absent parent. They would convince themselves they would have been better or stable adults if the absent parent was around.

I see SMs every other time on social media. Many of them end up begging for giveaway and playing the single mother card to evoke sympathy. Some end up dating married men. Some cannot get to their full potentials because they are playing dad and mum while working to feed this child (or children). Get the man involved! If he was a bad partner, was he also a bad father? They are two different things.

The bolded is a very important reason why the child needs to have access to the absent parent to see him/her for whom they truly are.


Too much stories of my mum is very manipulative blablabla. Tell am where him papa dey, make sure the Father plays a role, if you have to go to Igando customary court to do it, do it let him have a role in that child's upbringing.

If the other parent now decides to be dead beat patapata the child will see and will stop hounding you for an irresponsible parent.


2 parents bringing up a child is enough hard work, one person doing it will quench.

onefourseven:
So Dangote is permitted to be a deadbeat father right? I don't think you know how manipulative women can be.

Whether he's a deadbeat or livebeat or a liability, ion care man.

Loool, I hope single mothers are learning, ensure the Father plays a financial role in the life of the child. Don't do all alone oo.

Don't do it all alone, laslas you might be accused of being manipulative by the very one you sacrificed all for.

The name Banda sounds like that same ghanian rich man who married a 2nd younger wife back then and had twins with her. I read it on Ovation, fantastic photo shoot. It was years back, should be up to 15-20years I read that story.

Tokotaya:
One day soon, there will be no acceptable form of disciplining a child in America. You cannot spank, that is physical abuse. You cannot scold, that is emotional abuse. You cannot cut her hair, that is trauma. Na real wah!

I don't even understand again anyway its America.

Something that low cut for some girls back then can be a parental response to just spending too much time making your hair. Kilonje trauma. Nowadays this one trauma, that one trauma Mtchew.

They will say woo cut it let breeze be blowing your hair and water should touch it everyday EOD, them no born you well toeven attempt negotiation.

Very hilarious video

Which one is the saloon woman's own sef shielding the girl.

The girl too had mind to still sit comfortably after the wife got there, she did not even attempt to japa. She get mind sha.

Hubby too was saying I will beat you now oo, he was sitting with side chick to make hair wifey was saying 'he told me to cut my hair' she kuku remove wig.

Yeye husband.

RuneKingThor:
Yes it is.

Thanks

RuneKingThor:
S
Put gear in Neutral and then apply hand break.
Never put of the engine as it makes the streering unresponsive.

Please is this also applicable for automatic cars?

Parental guidance is really important sha, really important.

And they open their eyes waa and are allowing this, she needs to calm down a bit 25 days ke?

There's a level of decorum and class expected from her caliber of people considering her parentage, family history and how rich these people are.

Even if she wants to marry a white man, let her farabale.

I honestly don't blame the rich northerners that matchmake their children, they marry within one circle.

Is cannabis the same thing called Igboo that those touts smoke inside garage?

Interesting. My heart went up when some of those babies where thrown in the water.

Learn early, be good at it early but safety is our major issue with teaching these babies here in Naija.

Where I come from the brides family do all in their location, traditional, church wedding, every every.

Culturally all is supposed to be sponsored by the brides family as they belive they are hosting the grooms family and sending off their daughter. In recent times the grooms do chip in financially though.

Richy4:
I can see the frustration on your write up.. u are not alone...

Sometimes I wish my dad was alive to give me a little tips and format on how he used looks and eye contacts to control myself and my siblings all our childhood... He will look at us we will quickly get the message...

But the two I have here... If I look at them, they will be looking back like newly purchased Agric chickens... Sometimes my eyes will be paining

Bwahahaha

Lool at newly purchased Agric chickens.

That look, knowing what the look means just comes naturally with time they will get it.

Mindlog:
Another "trick" is to also cry believably when the baby is crying, it tends to make them pause to observe you in surprise, then look at with anger and questioning......why u follow dem dey cry, dem no like competition.

This one works perfectly

Loool even govt workers are looking for alternative sources of income. You have two sources you are talking stress, jobs don't necessarily have to be stress free.

You better find means of managing the stress if you know what's good for you. You think that 45k is nothing abi, you don't collect the 45k for 3 months you will understand.

Nigeria is hard enough, all legal means of alternative incomes should be welcomed.

Ulunne777:
The burden placed on women.A woman leaves her home to go take care of her mother because the male ones are immature or can't take care of her properly.
But the immature one knows how to find a hole but can't take care of his mother.

Anybody who knows the hole is matured to take care of his mother.
The evil that happens in Africa.look what it has brought on this woman who must have been guilt tripped because of blood not to divulge.

Mtcheeew

Very saddening situation honestly.

Truvelisback:
Yes, only if it is necessary. If the man is well-to-do, he should provide a shop or a business for the wife. I don't believe in full housewife.

Truvelisback:
The present presentage of men who are well-to-do are very, very low because of the ugly state of this hopeless and miserable country. That's why women need to assist their husbands with what they earn, no matter how little it is.

Women need to assist the husband with what they earn but men can't assist with the wife and if they do they are Simps right?

Mindlog:
I used to be a neighbous to a Nigerian couple with a 2 year old daughter......that mindset up there, was one of the key causes of conflict in their marriage.

Oga carry im Nigerian way come UK refusing to unlearn some things and relearn, insisting cooking and other domestic chores must be done by only the wife alongside much of the childcare.....madam change am for am, how can she do 12 hrs shift at work just to come home to chores, without the husband lifting a finger. Madam decided go off work for a month, to stay back home and be full-time housewife which made Oga to look for extra 20hrs job per week to add to the main 40hrs per week he was already doing...by third week he called his wife to reconsider resuming work and they worked out how chores would not burden just one spouse.

Abi nau make she kuku dey cook, clean and do nanny dey go make the man dey make all the moni.
She will work and come die on top again let her choose her main role and rest make the guy do him main role whether he go fit cope.

mariahAngel:
The agaracha husband no been see where Calabar girls dey before im marry im wife?
"Calabar girls! Calabar girls! Person no go hear word!
As if e pass edikang-ikong, afang, and knack!
When e reach to cheat, na that time una dey remember Calabar girls.

(Na only to think of ways to spite una sabi, forgetting say two can play una game!)

Mariah haff vex.

ThrustReverser:
They eat in a restaurant because restaurants sell food.

Loool very hilarious and factual response.

There are situations one pray never to fall into.


The problem is lots of families in Nigeria cover up sexual assault cases.


The woman is probably more hurt than you are concerning her daughter, fear probably didn't make her tell you, fear of being blamed, fear of your reaction etc.

I honestly dont think arresting her is the best step.


The boy should be put in juvenile prison.


Anyway the family has crashed already by these string of events. There might have been another outcome if handled differently.
