I suggest you buy him "English without tears for Xmas".

It can be a very embarrassing situation for you when he speaks in public. Let him know your feelings and concerns in a way that won't hurt his ego. I don't think correcting him each time he makes a mistake would help for long, he'll soon start getting offended. Prove to him that you love him and he'll do whatever it takes to show that he loves you.

What makes a man a man? Before you consider marrying you should be able to provide and cater for the woman. No woman wants to suffer and should be allowed to suffer. A woman can marry a man who at present isn't wealthy but the man must have potentials and concrete plans for the future. Only an unwise woman would marry by faith alone and solely because of love.

I believe it also depends on the upbringing of the lady not only whether she's in Nigeria or stationed abroad. I can understand why guys perfer to go back to Nigeria to get a bride having lived in the UK for a while. Except the guy is really desperate to get papers by marrying a foreigner, his preference is always to get a decent Nigerian girl. Even those that marry for papers end up marrying a Nigerian after a while.

The culture and lifestyle abroad is totally different from home. When you think about how you want your children to be brought up, the obvious option is to give them an identity, morals, values and a sense of family life. The economic situation in Nigeria has made veryone desperate, not just the ladies alone, so we shouldn't blame any girl for being desperate. Who doesn't want a better life. We are partly responsible for their behaviours because we give people back home the wrong impression about life here. Except you're a yahoo boy, life is hard and the hard currency is hard to make.

My advice is to prayerfully seek a girl that is well brought up regardless of where she is naija or abroad. A desperate girl that is well brought up in Nigeria would realise the situation when she comes abroad and adjust accordingly. A selfish, unsupporting girl will pretend of course and ruin you when she comes here.

Having said that, you can find decent Nigerians abroad to marry, the only thing is that they may not be able to cook the egusi and ogbono the way you like it . You can find out 7 Reasons why I married my wife here http://www.peleodiase.com/blog/wife-marriage
