Though hand join in hand, the WICKED SHALL NOT GO UNPUNISHED. Shikena!

These people talk like fools and they should be role models to young kids. Imagine a grown up man saying ".... by the time I'd be ur age, I'd have......". Question is, what makes you so sure that you must get to that age? Are you God? Can you tell the future? Shallow minds all over Africa. Age is really not maturity.

Oga, difference dey o. I lost my Samsung Galaxy Note II last February, then I got a Samsung Galaxy Grand Neo, which I'm using now. I can tell you, I'm finding it difficult to come to terms with the drop in quality- in terms of speed and fluidity, RAM size, battery life and integrity, speed of charging, screen resolution, camera power, audio quality, loudness of external speaker, and most painfully, the lack of an S Pen.
My brother, there's a reason high-end phones are sold at their price, there may be a little over hyping and over pricing o, but better thing good die!

What do you think? Will we ever get to this stage?

Source: http://www.trezzyblog.com/2016/04/can-this-ever-happen-in-nigeriaphoto.html

How can we get to that level?
With so much injustices and lies?
With no equal opportunities for the citizens?
With quota preferred over merit?
With selfish refusal to implement full fiscal federalism?
With herdsmen killing and maiming citizens with impunity?
With environmental degradation going unchecked?
With so much oppression against the minorities?
With leadership allegedly going vocal about a plan to discriminate btwn d 95% and d 5%?
With selective enforcement/implementation of anti-graft laws/policies?
With minors being abducted, espoused and having a religion imposed on them?
With the blood of over a million slain women and children(in what many tag an attempted genocide) still haunting Nigeria? Whatever happened to a referendum like you witnessed over there in the UK with the Scottish?
With a deliberate widening of the gap/income inequality btwn the rich and poor?
With religious favoritism holding sway for years in the secular scene?.....
Life is all about give-and-take, sowing and reaping. Wickedness can never go unpunished. Karma is in action.
My dear, as a country, even in a thousand years, we ain't getting anywhere near the standard of the UK of today if don't embrace Truth, Justice and Equity.

If you're blessed, you're blessed. Even if na only one school dey ur region. You'll still be more refined, enlightened, educated and useful than another who's got a million schools in his street and wasn't fortunate enough to be as blessed by the Divine One. Ask the Hebrews.

kolaaderin:
Igbo succession is only driven by greed, check ur comment and see for urself how greedy ur race are!! Our oil our oil, what if u don't have such in ur land will u wanna still go.? No I guess

You may be right about a particular set of people being greedy, but sit back and reread ur statement, don't you think it's borne out of parasitic tendencies and selfishness?
Before you go, look up the meaning of "greed" in ur dictionary just to be sure.
The sharing formula isn't favorable to all, plus there are no equal opportunities for citizens thus causing development to lag perennially.
Calls for fiscal federalism are drowned out.
Then someone calls for self-determination, how is that supposed to fill supposedly normal humans with anger, bitterness, venom and vitriol to the extent of attempting genocide? Just look at these logically.

I've a strong feeling about half of Lagos inhabitants need mental rehabilitation.

optionB:
Many are of the opinion that former Lagos state governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu was born right at the middle of a money-printing machine, but that is not true.

Some rumours also have it that his parents were very wealthy, so he practically worked for nothing in his life but that is also not true.

The diminutive Nigerian politician had to work his way up the ladder. He was once a cab driver and even a security guard who worked very hard to reach where he is today.

In a special publication by TheNEWS magazine, Tinubu detailed how he worked has a cab driver and a security guard. Here are excerpts from the interview.

Q: When did it strike you to travel out of the country?

A: I was lucky. Even though I was ambitious about travelling out of the country, particularly as my friends like Folabi Salami and Tokunbo Maxwell had just travelled to Germany, I would say that I was just lucky.
Others, like Nurudeen Olowopopo, of blessed memory, and Sola Popoola headed for the United States and it remained Tunde Badejo, Bolaji Agaba and myself. So, the three of us were determined that we must get out of Nigeria, too.

I went to Ikenne, with my late sister, for a big ceremony. We had gone to pick bottles of Coca-Cola from the cold room and wanted to quickly return to the St. Saviour’s Church, where my sister was. There was a sudden rain of bullets and had we not been rushing to the church to ensure that we didn’t miss what was going on there, I would have died. The young man that was standing with me was hit. He slumped and died.

Based on the sad incident and how I had narrowly missed death, my family said to me: ‘This boy, you have always said that you wanted to travel out of the country, it is time to do so.’ So, my mother gathered some money, sold her trinkets to make up for the remaining part of my allowances and joined it with proceeds from the sale of the Volkswagen Beetle given to me by my uncle, the late Ganiyu Tinubu, who used to work at Simpson Street, Ebutte-Metta. He had a Beetle car he bought from a Canadian and had it converted into a convertible, which I used to drive. Nobody taught me how to drive. He asked that I sell it and add the proceeds to the money I needed for my trip. That was what I did.

Bolaji Agaba and I left the same day for the United States, while Badejo left some months later. We got our visas through my family connections. Bolaji’s own had almost expired before we left. On our arrival in the US, we thought we would stay in New York. But Nurudeen Olowopopo said no and we put some money together for Bolaji’s ticket and we headed for Washington D.C. I stayed with the late Sola Popoola at Washington before we started finding our way. We were running out of funds then.

He helped us secure a one-room apartment in Alexandria, Virgina. We got an unregistered used car (they left the licence open) commonly called Gypsy, which we ran as a taxi. We operated at the airport, where we picked passengers, and not anywhere else, like the hotel because it was forbidden for unlicensed cab drivers to do so. We did that for a while to raise some money. We did, and Bolaji went to Tennessee, while I headed for Chicago.

Q: Can you tell us some unpleasant moments that you had then?

A: One experience I will not forget was when I over-charged a naval officer, who was returning to the country. It was not intentional. Apparently, I didn’t know the direction; there was no GPRS in those days to locate directions. So, he gave me the direction to his house in a Virginia suburb. I gave him the price and the man responded with a slap to my face. He said I should know the correct fare to charge to the location he mentioned. He slapped me and gave me the money.

Another experience was when I took a guy whom I didn’t know was drunk. When I drove to his house, he pointed a gun at me instead of paying the fare. He took my leather jacket and said: ‘Get into your car and get lost.’ He did not pay.

Another interesting one was when I was taking the third Accounting class and equally working as a security guard at a construction site. They were very serious with their kind of security. You just had to do that job. There were about six points with six clocks at the site, which the security man must wind every hour and with a dog in hand. So, there was never a chance of trying to catch a nap.

As I was doing my accounting assignment, I fell asleep. I was dead asleep! The inspector came to the site and found me sleeping, with my head on my books. He simply pulled the register and wrote: ‘I have been here. You were sound asleep. So, see me tomorrow.’ When I woke up, I found that Skiddo (the dog’s name) was gone, and then the register. I just went to a corner, cleaned my face and concentrated on my assignment because I knew the job was already gone.
You can’t lose two things. I ensured that I read well for my test and passed the next day. I opted to post their uniform and the cap to them, but suddenly ran into the man and he handed me my cheque and said the job was gone. I told him I knew and we said goodbye to each other! I had to start looking for another job.

Three lines appealed to me in this write-up.
Mother sold trinkets and personal valuables to help son realize his dreams. Are fathers always self-centered or something?? We hardly find dem getting involved in dis kinda sacrifice.
Used family connections to get visa.... Hmmm, even as at then? E don tey wey this life rugged o. So, a man without connection, how him go do na?
Lastly, no mention of father in the whole account. Did he lose his dad at an early age? Or the man no play any significant role in his success story?

Jadekitana:
Don't let their suit and flashy cars deceive you, bankers are broke! Damn broke! I even heard a recent trend that bankers these days earn less than 70k and yet when you see them in clubs you would think they are Tony Elumelu's sons! Pretence everywhere.

Imagine this particular Zenith big boy has been disturbing my line for a hang out.I thought of honouring the invitation since its just a hang out.

This bloody cretin is so proud that even his shirts exude pride,he displays his expensive shoes on bbm,hangs out in exotic bars, always balling with the big guys not knowing he wasn't even a full staff of the bank.

He came to pick me few minutes to 6pm,took me to this strange lounge with flowers all over and ordered Asun.The waitress surprisingly brought a very small plate of Asun for both of us. Before I even picked my toothpick,this guy has finished the whole plate and the onions as well.I was just observing! I then called the waitress and asked how much was the asun,she said 500naira! I told her to bring 2plates. This shameful thing finished his plate and entered mine,i didn't talk.

That wasn't even the height! After this useless display on our way out he called the waitress and demanded for his change for drinks he bought, I was thinking the change was big that he had to keep us waiting! Hell no! 100naira!! He couldn't dash the waitress 100naira bloody stingy fellow.Yet when he starts displaying those fake dps one would think he's Jim Ovias Son! Fake life everywhere. Ladies don't get carried away, all na packaging,they have nothing! Just living a borrowed life style to fit in.



As usual his number has been deleted till eternity.

But Nigerian ladies love those that lie to them. They tag frank dudes as "boring". In my country, intelligent ladies are very rare.

Legalize firearms in Nigeria. It'll help curb nefarious activities both by uniformed men and hoodlums.

At just 21? Does she have a career? She don get BSc? She don complete learning a vocation? So na prick and small small money be her only mission and priority on earth? If na so, I think it's better for her to leave the earth. Young people of today ehn...... I just wonder where most of them are headed because they're both obstinate and without wisdom. I'm afraid anytime I think about the future of Nigeria.

aluk:
Let me teach you how it feels like

You're a pianist? I'm ready to learn.

Guys, don't mingle with hungry and 'ambitionless' ladies, they're not good for ur future. When a lady is so keen on how much food(or other items) a man/guy who isn't her husband or relative buys her, then u can deduce where she's coming from and/or where she's headed.

ceaser:
Now this problem is multifactorial. I don't know for how long you both have been married that you have issues with conception.


Rom your post history, it is apparent that this man does not love you deeply as you love him. For him to try to call off the engagement 4 years into your relationship speaks volume of his "love" for you. But perhaps pleas from several sources including those he wouldn't say no to made him to reluctantly go ahead with the union (remember his heart and mind were already not with yours ever since he threatened to bail out on the engagement). Perhaps he had even met his mistress ever since then. That mistress may be diabolical, she may not be.

Fast forward to now. Some decisions he may have taken, and definitely with the connivance or advice of his mistress is as follows:

*Even if forced into the marriage because he couldn't refuse pleas from some people he held in high esteem, he can however FRUSTRATE you outta the marriage.

*When it became apparent that that may not work because you kept entertaining his excesses and misdeeds without complain (you admitted that you "fight" a lot), the next plan is to bring up trumped up charges and then hinge a divorce on that reason.

You did not err by telling your better half your secrets, but I think he simply needed the flimsiest of excuses to justify his plan to bail out on you so as to have his mistress move in as full housewife.

Please note that your poor chances at conception may not exactly be due to an anatomic or physiologic problem with you. It may actually be due to the frequency of your sexual exposure to your husband. Medically, a couple is said to have the problem of infertility (primary or secondary) if there is no conception after a year of ADEQUATE sexual exposure; adequate in this instance means on the average 3 times in a week.

But what manner of sexual intimacy and exposure do you think you can get from a husband who apparently has no love for you and whose sexual energy is channelled to his mistress outside instead?

The last but not the least. Have you ever conceived before in which case yours will be secondary infertility? Was the conception your husband's and then you had to tell him and he suggested the choice of a voluntary TOP (termination of pregnancy) to you and which you obliged? If this happened while you were dating him or anyone else, being privy to such information may have given him the erroneous conviction that your inability to conceive was due to the procedure that may have "destroyed the womb".

A made up mind like your husband's may be a difficult thing to change. You need to get your medicals to confirm the problem of infertility isn't yours (actually men are responsible for a sizeable percentage of infertility amongst couple but traditionally, the blame is always on the woman). And while you are at the medicals, equally endeavour to get screened for Lenteviral, Hepatitis and other STIs. Your husband has been unfaithful. You need to know your status.

Very educative.

I know we're all humans and mistakes are inevitable, but one thing, financial/career success, social status of family, physical endowment, academic brilliance/intelligence, virginity, self-acclaimed righteousness etc should never be allowed to tilt our decision on who to take as our life partner because 'wolves' can also possess these attributes.
Rather, decency, selflessness, right attitude to life and the fear of God are factors we shouldn't compromise with in screening of potential life partners.
Remember, no be necessarily person wey marry fine wife or rich husband dey enjoy marriage pass. Happiness is what matters most.
Happy new month, my fellow countrymen.

Chuukwudi:
You've never masturbated your entire life? Hypocrit!!! If after 18 years as a guy, you've not seen your sperm, you're impotent.

Bro, I want to learn to play the piano. I need good piano lessons.

rallymento:
I have neither fornicated nor masturbated in my entire life.

It is all about moral and what your brain interprets to you.

I am no saint though and I am not judging those that have found themselves in such mess.

There is a way >>>>>>>>

We call Him the Ocean divider

Run to Christ and enter your rest

How old are you?

Ahmed0336:
were her eyes closed when he married her?

You know weda she be the hungry type wey just choose to follow the guy because of him money or something?? 9ja chics know the matter na

deyemia:
please tell me, how will she know the number of women the guy has had? I lost my own count and I still respect women feelings..

anyway sha, she's just 20, dem just start to toast her

You said it all. At 20,she shouldn't even be talking about how men and women relate in a public forum, because the truth is, what exactly does she know about these things? What has she witnessed? What experience has she got? Man-woman rship intricacies are actually beyond her scope at this age because there's so much more about it that she's yet to know. It's just like having a 20-year old as rship/marriage counselor.

Ozid:
This Mr Aribisala is just making mockery of himself. If at this age of his he sees nothing bad in corruption then he need to have a brain check up.

Mtcheeew! APC has messed up so many brains in this country to the point they can no longer process simple information accurately. Lies are really destructive. Just see what you're deducing from the write-up.

Now, get a steady, standby chic of your own. She'll see to ur needs from time to time. By so doing and also avoiding porn and masturbation, ur joystick will gradually regain full strength. It's "NOT GOOD FOR THE MAN TO BE ALONE"..... You know the rest abi??

Painful thing is these wild humans na my fellow countrymen.

Our ladies are always keen to show how hungry they are.

godson36:
HE IS ONLY SHEDDING TEARS FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU

Tell am to shed that tears in front of IBB, the man get something to tell PMB about his(PMB's) tenure as PTDF chairman back then. Hypocrites deceiving gullible citizens repeatedly... Rubbish tears.

chukwudi44:
Omojuwa has zero economic management but he kept forming a guru, criticising one Jonathan economic policy after another just because he was been paid to tweet. Today the government he worked in foisting on us has not even met up with Jonathan's economic standards!! He should bury his head in shame.He sold a fraud and tyrant to gullible voters like you and the results is the Nigeria of today!!

You have a working brain. God bless that brain and also shield it from APC propaganda and deceit.

'Change' supporters, See wetin una foolish voting don cause us. Epic foolishness and vulnerability. Foolish generation, history will always remember you people.

See the national problem wey the foolishness of my fellow Nigerians bring upon us? They lacked common sense during voting. Now dia life is about to be extinguished due to dia foolishness.
Simple logic. They all thought after the elections, dey will inflict pains on the 5%,but alas, d pain is nationwide. Gear up, people, it's game on! Like I said earlier, I do not expect anything positive from dis regime to the common man.

Snipes009:
I hope you are cut from the latter part like I am too. O boi, na so one babe call me one day like that, like "hey, where u at?". I said "I'm at the mall to eat and shop". She said "only you?". I was thinking loud like "wtf is wrong with it being only me", so I responded "oh yeah, I like taking myself out once every fortnight". She said "can I join you the next time?". I said "Nah, my younger bro will be in town then, so it's me and him". She had to switch topics.

I'm the type that will take very good care of myself first, do check and balance on my income and expenses before doling out the "extras" (leftover money) on the "extras" (my peeps and babes). Technically, that's why I don't even date hungry, "take me out" ones. Lol

Correct! She bin want place u under psychological pressure as per why you go take only urself out but you push the psychological burden back to her. Shame catch her. Once dey notice you're refusing to be stupid, they try to make u feel bad for not being stupid.
Rships btwn guys and babes should be mutual. But most of our girls don take am as profession and means of livelihood. Na wa!

DIKEnaWAR:
Most Nigerians are too hungry to pray. Even if na fasting them dey, e don reach to break. Almost One year fa!

Epic!
Repercussions of sentimental voting.

Realone92:
Behind every tear tear boxers comes with a stingy guy refusing to do the needful for himself
What a pity lol


" Shameless "

Oga, most times no be like that o. We live in an era when guys can allow their mother/siblings to starve, just so they can have enough to spend on strange women.
On the other hand, some guys will also gladly spend generously on themselves and their loved ones, but not on strange women. Dis group of guys dey make women develop bad belle, because he keeps looking dapper and well-groomed but refuses to be any woman's ATM.

DIKEnaWAR:
Before you talk: remember that as long as you depend on a man to recharge card, Dstv, light or buy you this and that or take you and your mother or sister shopping in Dubai or living off a man --Ajazeera is speaking to you! Learn mechanic or hair dressing instead of waiting for a man to pay you for spreading your legs for him.

Most Nigerian women now feel entitled to your money as soon as you start sleeping with them or even collect their number. E sweet me, e sweet you, yet you want me to pay?

Funny thing is, even the so called pilots and doctors and Lawyers have joined this game. Most of them have that chairman that pay for the expensive clothes, perfumes and vacations. There are still decent ones who don't, but they have become the endangered specie.

Very sound message to all who care to listen.

tellwisdom:
Wor Wor...let them pull their cloths and you will regret ever asking them to. .. All these gurls go dey snap only their baked face to deceive guys ...Spits
