RomanceRe: I Have Feelings For My House Help. by olakan22: 11:01am On Feb 13, 2022
Care is important here.
You should think of the possibilities that could arise:
1. You sleep with the girl and sin against your maker
2. Or worse, you rape her and you become responsible for ruining a life. When you're caught, you'll be an embarrassment to your loved ones. You will spend years in jail and be paraded before the press. You may even get to FP. You would have ruined your life. Over what?
3. Your wife will find out about your escapades and God help you, she'll send you back to your village. Not to talk of the heart break you would be handling her. Your children will be so ashamed of you.

What should you do?
Flee evil. As you begin to work sincerely on your indiscipline, begin a conversation with your wife. Help her understand your fears and why it's important the maid should leave.
You know it's not the girl's fault. Be fair when you lay her off. She's not a dog. You should also step up in assisting with house chores. You may get a male househelp too. Remember your wife is not wrong to ask for help. She may even step up if she sees your commitment.

You should communicate your sexual desires carefully and clearly.Together work out a way forward on your sex life. Be considerate.

Again, discipline your mind. You need wisdom, actively seek it
RomanceRe: Help!! My Mother And My Girlfriend Are Putting Pressure On Me by olakan22: 8:01pm On Feb 05, 2022
Maxwell775:
Good day nairalanders. Hope everyone is having a good weekend. I'll be brief.

While I was growing up I love playing football, I'm a very good defensive midfielder, I be correct number 6, I have always wanted to play for Nigeria and other big clubs. But my dreams becoming a footballer wasn't coming to reality so I have to focus on my business full time.

I work from mon - sat, while sundays are my free days but I don't go to church. I'm part of those people that plays ball on a Sunday morning, I'm 31 and I still dey play ball well, Infact from Saturday evening my friends have started calling me against tomorrow's match.

Although my girlfriend have persuaded me to start going to church but all to no avail. I can't remember the last time I went to church. Please note that I study my bible, I pray always, I help people around, I visit homes of the needy. But Its been a decade I went to church.

My girlfriend attends church very well, even weekly service. She is really mad at me, she has invited me to church several times but I would turn her down. Now she said she can't go on with our relationship, she don't want a situation whereby if we get married and other families are going to church with their husbands, that I will be in the streets playing ball, she want her marriage to be built on God's word... Bla Bla Bla

Now My Mother on the other hand, is putting pressure on me to go settle down. Everytime, your mates are married, give me grandchildren, do you want me to die before you marry, I didn't give birth to impotent children.

Guys, please note that my elder bro is married with 2 kids. Abeg no be grandchildren be that?? Why put pressure on me.

My Mother pressure.. My girlfriend pressure. I'm just confused and its getting too much. Please I need advice.
You should consider this well; what do you want to do with your life?

RomanceRe: Can A Married Man Buy A Valentine Gift For His Female Colleague? by olakan22: 7:56pm On Feb 05, 2022
Vinnie2000:
In my Workplace this Evening, One Fine, female Worker started to accost the Guys as we were Leaving.

She was Holding our hands and shoulders, saying Next week Monday is Valentine oo. That we must Buy her Gift, no matter how small.

After her Insistence, my Pal who is Married now Promised to get her Something small.

Me too, Also Promised to Buy her a Gift because who knows 'She might Reward the Givers later'. Lolssss...

BUT SERIOUSLY, IS THERE ANYTHING WRONG FOR A MARRIED GUY TO GIVE A LADY FRIEND OR COLLEAGUE VALENTINE GIFT?
It's dicey.
My candid advice? The married guy shouldn't buy a gift. If she insists (which I suppose would be in a playful manner) he may give a nice gesture like data subscription, airtime or pay for her lunch.

Just let sleeping dogs lie

InvestmentI Am Receiving Calls And Sms Asking Me To Repay A Loan I Didn't Take by olakan22(op): 5:59pm On Nov 03, 2021
Good evening,
Barely a month ago I received some texts which I believed were from a broadcast introducing their loan services. I ignored the messages and didn't think much of it.

Then on Sunday, I got a message telling me my 'loan' was due. I didn't take any loan from anywhere. I didn't at anytime register nor did any verification with any financial institution for any loan.

Since yesterday I have been receiving automated phone calls asking me to pay up with a tinge of threat therein. The numbers are: 09 299 0153, 01 888 7311

I tried looking for the company's customer care online so I could clarify things but I couldn't find them.

I am particularly worried because I have read of how Fintechs blackmail their defaulters. And in this case, I don't owe anybody.

I am hoping that I will find workable solution to resolve this totally.

Pls help!

SportsRe: Tennis: Osaka Fined $15000, Faces "Expulsion" For Not Granting Media Interviews by olakan22: 4:19am On May 31, 2021
I hope she comes out of this well.

Osaka's story was so clear and direct but organizations are speaking English.

How will any sport whatsoever improve because the athletes grant media interview?

Why must anyone have to talk about their darkness before the whole world and as part of entertainment for that matter?

They should think of better ways to make money and not keep ruining people's life.

I think Osaka needs all the help she can get. This nonsense must stop!

He meant that they have ordered plates and stuffs (you see that steering wheel and its logo?) in the old designs so much for vehicles they haven't even manufactured. Those stuffs are in the warehouse. They've been paid for. They have to exhaust them before using new designs. If not, they'll incur a huge loss.

joseph1832:
Well some women have grown mature and learn to look beyond the randy way of their wayward husbands.

Truth is, if a man cheats, does it warrant the wife to call the marriage quits?

We should take a cue from Hilary Clinton, who stood by her husband, when he was in his weakest moment. She proved she's a woman and her husband is a man.

To even ask, the woman Bill Clinton cheated with where is she today? That's exactly the reason, such women are random sampling material and like every material that is not built on solid ground, they fade away.

Hold on to what you have and never let pussy_ distributing materials destroy what you have, it's always worth it in the end.

Kudos to iyawo 9ice.
Not all men are cheats.

There's nothing, absolutely nothing normal about infidelity.

And because it's become a common practice doesn't mean it's a good thing.

It doesn't mean people don't get hurt.

And pls forget about Hollywood. No one likes a randy partner. Or is okay with it.

Does anyone even think about the children? And how infidelity of their parents affect them?

Christianity EtcRe: Malawian Pastor Godwin Maere Leaked Nude Pictures With Female Reverend by olakan22: 9:03am On Dec 16, 2020
vickydankal:
I don’t get what people gain from exposing men and women of God who consented to Indulge in sex. If it is rape it’s a different thing. These people are human like us and can make mistakes.

Their local churches will handle this. Exposing some things about the body of Christ will reduce the faith if the world in the church . That’s why I love Catholic Church, whatever happens there stays there.

Not often will you hear about our brothers in other religion public or on social media discussing about their lmam on sexual vices.

Strike the Shepard and the sheep will scatter.
I am not a saint. But this whole thing wasn't a mistake. They were bold enough to pose for the camera.

Maybe the leak is an accident. The act isn't. Not in anyway

FamilyRe: Help: My Wife Wants Another Baby by olakan22: 4:03pm On Dec 01, 2020
Your concerns are legit OP. There really is no point in having children you are unable to care for.

Your wife's desire for another child is much more about the gender than another kid which is interesting. There's no way to know you will conceive a girl if you decide to go ahead with it.

I suggest you exercise patience with her and LISTEN to her. Not what she says but what she means. If you're spiritually inclined, you may pray for insight into what it's exactly about. It may be more than just another kid especially when she's emphasizing a particular gender.

However, if it's as ordinary as it is, you should speak with her. Let her understand your concerns and what the consequences are and what responsibilities she would have to make. If she agrees, I think you should support her. It can't hurt really.

Doing vasectomy is ill-advised. If she gets to know, it may not be pretty. Trust becomes an issue. There are complications to that thing too.

At the end it's between you two. If she's not bending, be the man. Make the sacrifice.
I have a feeling we'll be chopping chicken at the christening next year though.

All the best
RomanceRe: Should I Take The Risk And Invest In My Girlfriend? by olakan22: 4:11pm On Nov 30, 2020
Firstandonly:
My girlfriend is very good in sawing and she has always wanted to have a shop of her own where she can expand. She is still in school and supports her studies from the little sawing she does at home, the truth is she's very hard-working.

Should i take a risk and open a shop for her. I work and i earn 40k a month i can easily save up to 60k from now till January but am scared, I don't want to take a risk i will later regret in life.

Pls has any body faced this kind of situation before or heard of it and how was the outcome?
You seem to have a good heart. However for the sake of your relationship, (her not being pressured and you not entitled). Caution is essential.

I guess the shop is worth 60k per annum from your post. You may support her with a token, I suggest a maximum of 10k if it's obvious she needs the extra help.

BTW, a monthly income of 40k may look okay for you now but you should start thinking of long term. What are you doing to be better Financially? What plans for the future do you have? Your 40k monthly big properly harnessed will help your future.

Again, supporting is nice. That should be it. Don't die for the world. Jesus already
RomanceRe: Marrying An Older Lady? by olakan22: 8:54am On Nov 30, 2020
sKeetz:
I'm dating an older woman. The difference in our ages is just 2 years. She is everything a man can ever dream of.

She's very supportive. Doesn't bother me and let's me do my thing. She doesn't boss me or anything of sorts. She's also very independent, but the only thing that stresses me out is our age difference and it's quite obvious cause i even look quite younger than my age and she's quite matured both physically and mentally.

Are there any cons to marrying a lady that is older? Guys who are married to older ladies, are there any traits i should look out for ?

Ps: we've been dating for 4 years now, so its not like i just met her. So i know everything about her and she knows everything about me.
Well chief, that gap isn't much na, two years? If for 4 years you didn't see any offs (assuming, your eyes were opened Sha) then, don't look for trouble that doesn't exist.

I understand that your concern is primarily of respect. Will she respect you and all. A woman will truly respect her husband not because of his age or physique but because he's a man (and I am not talking about macho Man). I recommend you read DIGNITY OF MANHOOD by Gbile Akanni. You'll find it a good Christian bookstore. It's really good, even for non Christians.

P.S: I really hope you marry each other o. Throwing away four years isn't going to be easy especially for your emotional health.

Godspeed bro!

If the Igbos are serious about taking power, they should form a formidable region. Strong enough to command respect.

Plus if they don't become President, they should push for say V.P, S.P, Speaker etc. At the end of the day holding key positions would be more valuable than boasting of having the just president if the goal is to enjoy better dividends of governance for the Igbo and not some political chest thumbing.

EducationRe: ASUU Strike, Students And Their Landlords by olakan22: 12:02pm On Nov 03, 2020
Whitefowl:
Seven months have passed since ASUU embarked on strike. These 7 months have gone on rather uneventfully with the lockdown taking the better part of the seven months and the recent #EndSars protests last month.

With the year coming to an end and the loss of job that accompanied the lockdown, other sources of income now seem to be the only income which brings me to the aim of this post.

Students have been home for these past months with little or nothing to do as most establishments are not hiring due to the financial hit on their businesses. Ordinarily, a session should be closing and rent for student lodges would most likely be due for payment. I just wonder where this leaves them and their landlords who would soon begin to ask for rent payments.

Losing 7months+ of their rents and probably more (since the ASUU strike is still on) is not wonderful thing. But rental agreements stated anyways that their rent is due on a said date signed prior to payment. It wouldn't be a subject to debate if these students utilized this rooms paid for during the past 7+ months plus. Paying for more time that mightn't be used is another thing to worry about.

I'm just wondering if it is possible for them and their landlords to find a middle ground. After all the landlords built those hostels and lodges for financial gains.

NB: Please bear in mind that not all federal universities have the capacity to provide accommodation for all her students.

Landlords of students' lodges, what are your thoughts?

Students patronizing alternative accomodations, what are your thoughts?

Nice thread OP,
I think it will be insincere to insinuate that ASUU's strike solely is responsible for the months long interruption to the Academic Calendar o.

HealthRe: UBTH Releases Woman Detained For 6 Months Over Unpaid Hospital Bills (Photos) by olakan22: 5:48am On Nov 01, 2020
The fight isn't against doctors or the hospital management.
The management has to pay bills. Without paying those bills go under.

No one wants to be inhumane, but that's what can be done on climes like ours unfortunately.

This is why a National Health Scheme is important. So many people can't afford to pay from their pocket.

Sometimes corpse are detained too.

The fact that the hospital even took care of her up to 500k is commendable. No private facility will be so patient.

We need to stop assuming that people turn out the way they are because of what they were taught in class. Let's not flatter our school system too much jare.
