Morroco, Tunisia and Egypt national teams is far better than UAE, Syria, Qatar, Lebanon, Iran, Iraq etc in football and sports generally.

AFCON dey demand much from them and over time they kept on improving unlike in the middle east mediocrity competition.

There should be balance
If you go to a beer parlour with your friends to have a few drinks 2 times a week
It is fine
If you wake up everyday and start drinking in the morning it is something else

Same thing with weed occasional use is different from all day use


The thing is many people smoke weed all day out of stress and joblessness which can worsen mental health
Weed or alcohol can be problems if misused. Alcohol is a lot worse in that situation
In both cases
I say avoid before 6 pm Avoid Monday To Friday

SIMPle, avoid before 6 pm and week days. But e no easy to quit addiction. I thank buhari for increasing the price of alcohol at least it restricted me a little. Thank God na only alcohol I do. I wish to stop one day.

davillian:
i understand your point
that if you dont do it when your peers are doing it you might likely do it when your peers have stopped do it...
now there men that would do it in thier youth and still do it @ thier 50s....
avoiding it is different from having the chance to do it and not doing it
and not doing it because you cant do it because u were not man enough to do it then...
its all about self control as a man...
controling yourself is what makes u a man in anger and decision making

Yes self control in all things is a must

if you are already making money at that age spend less save more and invest...
you see all those jobles girls flaunting sharp nipples runaway from them

This nipples don do you something..
But you no fit avoid am.

You see all these lecturers dieing in hotel room..na because they no get enough nipples during there 20s. They chased the bag, now they came back after 50yrs for revenge and the nipple send them to great beyond.

Nipple is a must... E no get solution. If you carry am over, you must come back for it.

ultimateprof:
If possible, avoid any private salary job and if possible be a business owner.

I wasted my 20s working for one man. The greatest regret ever.

20 - 30 is the best time you have all the energy in the world. Use it wisely and use your money, assets and knowledge to sustain yourself from 30 till death.

Please (even though I know my appeal with fall on deaf ears too numerous to count in this forum), approach this issue with logic and without prejudice to the people involved.

My wife and I are duly blessed with a son who is in his basic 5 now. Also, we decided to get the daughter of one of my cousin to stay with us. She is one of 7 children. So I wanted to help raise a CHIMAMANDA.

As my rule, every child of same age under my room attends the same school and calls us Dad & Mum. The school part didn't quite seat well with my wife, who had a different opinion, but I prevailed anyway. Because na me dey pay school fees.

The girl is a year older than my son, but due to the level of education at the village before she came over, we made her be in the same class as my son. She met my son in primary 2. Now they are both in basic 5.

A shocker happened: This girl keeps coming up in the class, while my son keeps running away from the top. We've tried extra lessons, even tried changing schools. Now it looks as if the girl is better suited for school than my boy. She reads, spells and memorizes things too marvellous. I bought a dictionary cos of that.

I even buy gifts for her (for coming top) more than I do for my boy, to make him sit up, but my pikin nor send me o. Guy use cry & Woman power make me buy am bicycle. 😁

I would think he's being a spoilt boy, who believes daddy & mommy is there, I don't really know. But I am hopeful.

Now, my major issue is my heavily pregnant wife. She wants the girl to be changed/enrolled at a different school. In her defence, she wants her to be available to help her take care of things. The kid's school close by 3pm. She suggest government school that close earlier. I see sense in what she said but I feel like I'll be unfair to this young girl.

When I tried to have a healthy debate on the idea. Na so madam start to dey talk plenty tins wey I nor fit type.
I have accepted to do her wish from September for peace.

Please, do you see another way I could avoid problems?

Is she right to have asked that I changed the girl's school just because she needs help around the house & her business?

Women no dey train other children pikin... She accepted her to come over to serve as maid. Her own pikin is her priority for now because Las Las, the girl will go back to her mama. However, such type will remember you the man but your wife will corner your own child Las Las to herself. Na why she Wan useless that one because, it's of no use to her in the future.

If you put girl child for Nigeria government school, you no try. She go spoil quick. The same madam no go gree you put her own girl child for government school even if you are broke.

Solution - Tell the principal to excuse the girl by 2pm some days or they risk losing her to another school.

I like it when she talks about the zoological Republic

What about us that need to watch it severally for the purpose of our investigation?

Yes because we need to be equipped with the right information. The cause and effects

I dey watch am every day

I don't understand why Ukraine want to join Nato because, I don't see any oppression from Russia before now unless they have been suffering in silence from Russia. Freedom is priceless so, any country that oppresses you needs to be fought forever.

If that's the case, then the war worth it.

Good day Nairalanders,

I seriously need your help to save my marriage.
I will be very brief with my story.

I am a newly wedded man. Before I got married, I usually take soda (Coke, Fata and big cola) drinks a lot, sometimes I take 2 bottles a day. Back then I assumed that since my work is so stressful, the soda will nor have much effect.

Fast forward to few months of my wedding, I stopped drinking soda.

Surprisingly, my P*nis could not stand properly for almost a week, I had to visit a local herb seller for Agbo. After few days, it started working again.
Fast forward to few days ago, I realised that I cum as quickly as 2minutes or less. The present situation is making me restless.

Please kindly advise on what I can use to get back myself.

First, how many minutes do you last before wedding and during cola consumption.

Solution

Stop masturbationnn and porn
Stop cola
Use hand job and condom
Eat healthy and give yourself 3 months to recover

We have buffalos in Africa and children are dieing of malnutrition and lack of protein.

Sirchiboy:
Only oooo.
No be small thing dey happen abroad.
You mean like person no fit see punana on steady rountine

Konji go finish you na... But the way they generalize this abroad is not good. You will still see Nigerian hook ups in some countries.

The problem is the standard is high in A countries and you wouldn't want to pay 200$ just for sexx

Teejay2033:
Leave science discussion to scientists. This so-called invention is a scam. No way water will power a stove. The only way to generate energy from water is to break down the water into oxygen and hydrogen gas and then use the hydrogen to generate energy. Meanwhile, you still need a tremendous amount of energy to split the water into these two components.

At this point, Africa may have a secret ingredient somewhere that can break down these molecules with little or no energy instead of electrolysis method.

These our useless native doctors will not ask their deity how to do it... Na to dey find people to kill na him dey Sabi.

If this man is saying something close to this we will know he is serious for now, what he is doing is complete trash.

I can never live in that Lagos very anyone post apocalyptic place.

I remember when I got an interview I travelled from PH to lag on a friday. The interview was scheduled for a Saturday so I stayed in my uncle’s place.

On the morning of the interview I waited at our street for keke like for an hour but none came. I later learnt there was fuel scarcity after finally seeing one we moved a little distance only to jam huge traffic jam.

I asked d driver I thought u said there is fuel scarcity and he said na so Lagos be ooo.

When I reach to bustop wher I would board d bus to the interview location that was even worse.

Traffic Jam noise and air pollution everywhere.
The bus even stained my white shirt and the mumu drive choose to follow a dirty market, I was so drenched in sweat.

I got to the interview an hr late and looking so tattered God saved me the interviewer was a nice person and still interviewed me.

But I made up my mind I won’t take d offer it took me 3 hrs to get to a location that will take me 45mins to jog on a good day.

Define zoo for me... You go know where you go

eyesoflagos.com/why-everyone-in-lagos-is-always-in-a-hurry-and-where-theyre-rushing-to/

I have been asking this question for very long time... Not only Lagos. Why are people always rushing out... Who programmed us like that?

There is nothing wrong in meeting up with time ones in a while but why is it everyday with anger and rage?

I value my peace too much and slow mornings. I prefer to go out by 10am calmly and return by midnight.

I just realized it's not possible unless you have your own business and very unique and valuable. Na why I dey study and practice hard. I need to achieve this before 45 and retire to one village with solar panels and starlink and enjoy nature. Nigerian city is not habitable

gidgiddy:
If you spend that amount of money to travel abroad, better stick it out there because there will be nothing to come back to Nigeria for except more pain and suffering

Tinubu will be happy to welcome him and finish him up

DeepSight:
How are we sure its not just an ordinary wedding the NAF struck and are calling "bandits wedding?"
Where in the world do you strike a wedding from the air and its ok since you call it a "bandits wedding?"

The only country you will hear this kind thing... Imagine bandit wedding

Nnamdipapa:
As a Nigerian man who got married in his early 20s, I can now look back with clarity and say I wasn’t fully ready. Back then, the pressure to settle down felt real. Family, church, and society made it seem like once you hit 25 and have a good job, marriage and having kids should be your next goal.

With time and experience, I’ve come to see that marrying in your 30s or even early 40s can be a much better decision for a man. If you're in that age range and people are trying to make you feel late, don't let it shake you. In many ways, it might actually be your advantage.

Here are 10 solid reasons why marrying late, for men like me, could make all the difference:

1. You Understand Yourself Better
In your 30s and 40s, you’ve had time to figure yourself out: your values, your habits, your triggers, and what kind of life you actually want. That self-awareness makes it easier to enter a marriage with direction and purpose, not confusion.

This one is the BIGGEST of my reasons for my discussion. In your twenties, you think you know yourself and your desires and as you grow and have more exposures your expectations will change and you may grow to despise what you loved10/15 years ago and are able to make better decisions.

2. You're More Financially Prepared
In your early 20s, you’re usually just starting out. Money is tight, and the demands of marriage can be overwhelming. By your 30s or 40s, you've likely built some income stability, gained work experience, and learned how to manage money, which can reduce stress at home.

3. You’re Emotionally More Mature
When you’re younger, pride and ego get in the way. Older men tend to respond to issues with more calm, they know how to apologize, and they understand that love is not always about feelings but about decisions and sacrifice.

4. You've Lived a Little
Some men who marry young later feel like they missed out on life. Marrying late gives you time to explore, make mistakes, travel, grow, and learn. You go into marriage with fewer regrets and a sense of fulfillment.

5. You Choose a Partner with More Clarity
In your 20s, it's easy to choose based on looks, pressure, or church vibes. Later in life, you know what you want, and you can see red flags early. You choose someone for real compatibility, not just chemistry.

6. Your Communication Skills Are Stronger
With age comes experience. You’ve probably been through disagreements, breakups, and reconciliations. By now, you’ve learned how to listen, explain yourself clearly, and handle conflict with less drama.

7. You Take Responsibility with Less Stress
Responsibility is part of marriage. When you're younger, it can feel heavy and frustrating. But older men tend to carry it better. They know it’s not about showing off; it’s just life.

8. Fewer External Distractions
By your 30s or 40s, your circle is smaller and more mature. Peer pressure fades. You’re less likely to be swayed by noise from friends or social media. That peace helps you focus on your home.

9. You're More Independent from Family Pressure
When you're younger, parents and relatives often have too much say in your personal choices. As an older man, you're more confident in your decisions. You set boundaries and protect your marriage from outside influence.

10. You Appreciate the Relationship More
At this stage in life, you’ve seen failed marriages. Maybe you’ve had your heart broken. So when love comes and it feels right, you treat it with care. You don’t rush, and you don’t take your partner for granted.

Final Thoughts
Getting married in your 30s or 40s doesn’t mean you're behind. For many men, especially in today’s world, it’s when you're finally ready , mentally, emotionally, and financially. If you’re still single and people are calling you late, remind yourself that it’s better to enter marriage prepared than to dive in early and struggle. Marriage is not a race. It’s a long journey. Starting it with the right mindset can make all the difference. Additionally, some of the reasons for early marriages are to start having children, but this is 2025, where having many children is no longer in vogue like it used to be. You are now able to choose the right fit for yourself with a mature mind and good mental clarity.

Pure trash.

We regret things we didn't do than things we did.

If you had married late, you would still think marrying earlier is better.

I advise people to work with biological clock not artificial time. You should marry the wife of your youth and enjoy yourself.

The problem is the country we found ourselves. At 30 you are old enough... Don't be a fool at 40

What men like this won't tell anyone is how they're ass-kissing errand boys for their wives' family.
They can call them at any time, and they have no choice but to answer.
This online rant is to console himself, and "pepper" the unsuspecting.

People think gold digging is cheap... If you are looking for easy route, you will find difficulty. There is no short cut to success. For me, I want to be like Ned kwoko... Father of all
