Our Nigerian kids are well smarter than most kids in the world, just that they don't have that enabling environment to progress and develop their individual skills and potentials.

Every sensible person or organisation knows it is impossible to do such within two weeks except our own govt.
FG will be giving out deadlines anyhow without thoroughly thinking how feasible it will be.

I have a girlfriend I am meaning to propose to during the festive period, she's everything I want in a woman except few exception which might be a hindrance to the proposal.
Gist is, my babe is a graduate but lack of work made her to learn fashion designing, she's done with the training and she's very good with what she does.

After marriage, I have told her that I'll assist in her business, I'm planning to get a bigger shop space for her and equip it with modern day machines, tools and tailoring materials goods to help make her work lucrative. I'm budgeting about 1.2-1.5m for this.

The issue now is that, 3 days ago, I asked her what her role would be if eventually after marriage she gets the shop, equipments and all, where she would come in in terms of responsibilities in the house. Her reply was she doesn't want to assume any responsibility and that it's my duty to cater for the family and she can only help & I shouldn't make anything compulsory for her. So many thoughts came through my mind. One of it was that, where the proceeds of her investment would be going to if I should shoulder all the responsibilities in the house knowing fully well that she makes money.

I rang my mum and told her of her response, I was shocked that she backed her saying that I shouldn't have asked her to foot anything in the house that it was my sole responsibility as a man to cater for my family my wife inclusive. My dad too, same thing. Even told my gf mum about it too , she giggled and said I shouldn't have asked her n that it's my duty to provide for my family. They all sounded foreign to me. Or am I the one not understanding?

My question now is, why invest that kind of money in her when I'm not sure of getting little or nothing in terms in return help to run the family. That sum of money could get me 4 brand new bikes and 2 neatly used Keke Napep for transportation business. I'm sure I'll be getting returns from these investment weekly or monthly basis.

I don't want who wouldn't have any sense of responsibility at home after investing in her, even if she's covering 10% or 5% I wouldn't mind. Mere helping doesn't go down well with me, she might have and decide not to give out. I rather not invest at all and expect nothing from her.

I don't know if I'm the one over thinking this things or my parent and her mum aren't seeing things from my perspective or am I being inconsiderate?

Criticism, Insults and bashing are welcomed. Thanks

Northerners should continue deceiving themselves...

It's obvious the kidnapping wasn't done by Boko Haram but some government agents who want to milk from money meant for security

causewahala:
Rubbish. Except of course you are talking contract staff salaries.

Do you know the meaning of team lead

akinmusi:
How true? Avoid making spurrous claims.

They will need clearance from Buhari before they can come

TheMan3:
Nigeria how did you get to this point?

gurunlocker:
SWAT do not patrol, that's another avenue to start your crazy menace again by collecting bribes on highway and killing people.


SWAT is only for Special operations and they go back hidden after the operation.

lkillbrokehoes:
Discussing about what? instead of you people to swing to action you are discussing with kidnappers, this is the worst government ever jeez!

Autopiloting turning things around for Nigeria to move forward

I wondered just HOW some of my coursemates gained admission into the school when I was an undergrad.
They can't even string simple, error-free sentences together!

They are all around us. Garbage in, garbage out!
Was it not one of them that posted "I am a CORPSE member" on Facebook some years ago? Then, they defend/console themselves with "English is not our mother tongue" and "Na who pass sabi book!"


Y'all quoting me to say it could be Auto-correct, I thought it might be, too. So, I checked out his previous posts. Dude dropped more bombs than North Korea!


And no, he ain't a Northerner.
