I thank God for giving me the opportunity to be alive today, many have lost their lives and is not by our power but by His grace.
I really appreciate GOD for this opportunity given to me and I pray to GOD that I witness more of it
NAIRALANDERS, please help me appreciate GOD.

Biko I'm not op or the dude with the post. I'm only a commentator like you. But what kind of madness will make someone borrow just to get married or not have the financial requirements and just opt for it. Love is sweet but marriage is the eye opener. The journey is wey to rigorous than not been well prepared.

In this economy that eku is not crying like eku and eye is not crying like eye, na to master this skills I go dey reason? If my good is not enough on behalf of me myself and I, I genuinely and let go of her.

wizrose:
warrenp i will be honest with you that girl dosent feel like she already save or garantty that you will marry her because truthfully you might change your mind tomorrow that your feelings for her already change and already find someone else... make her feel like you are ready to get married to her get her pregnant or something

In this economy where 1m is acting like 100,000 he should get her pregnant? Op na Ahithophel great grandson be this o. Run.....

must d wife contribute to family warfare? Which mean d man isnt man enough, man must cater 4 all his family needs! I didnt knw ur religion? But paul said a man dat cant cater 4 his home/family! Unbliver is better dan him!

See how this dunce misinterpreted the Bible just to appear smart. I wonder what level of intellect you will pass down to your offsprings. No pun intended.

oluwaseyi0:
correct

the bible made it clear that a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife

anything short is an unnecessary interference/stress for the new couple

Bros, leaving father and mother doesn't literarily mean their abode. It more deeper than that. It might mean their control, it might mean been emotionally attached and series of stuffs. The physical house is not even in conformity. I'm in my late 20s and a mummy's boy. I'm very self sufficient even with my own house that doesn't mean I don't go home (mum's place is home to me) to enjoy mum's stew and local delicacies, Even we stay in different cities. After marriage the Bible is against such. And many more. I do tell my friends if not for jobs and all, their is no reason for you to leave your parents house in the name of growing up. I once talked about my doctor friend who got married to his beautiful bride and they still stayed in his parents house. Today dude has finished a very nice 4 bedroom bungalow and tastefully furnished. He had the money for rent as he was doing is residency then already, but it wasn't economically okay simce his parents has a 5bed duplex in the same city he works with his wife.

I never liked any polithiefcian and I never trusted any of them...but one thing is certain; I will never support any of them and my disappointment will always be minimal; because I have zero to no expectations from them... they are all the same

Coming from you? You are doublefaced and the internet never forgets.

I swear before I opened the topic I knew it has to be an IjawMan

Why the conclusion..... Very funny though

Wawelexy:
Rejoice for what the lord has done... You just escaped! Rejoice bro.

Allow her go with the kids, let this current economic situation reset her brain, but make sure you are doing your quota has regards to the kids upkeep. If she comes back for reunion, please don't take her back. If you do, premium tears awaits you.


I don't know why a part of my mind is telling me that your name is Oluwasimpleton, and that you will take her back when she comes begging.

That's if he doesn't go beg her first. Dude sounds pathetic already.

Those are assault rifles. From the rapid fire.

This is rescue not loot

It's really a distress sale.

U guys are simply unbelievable.

Spits!!

You get time quote the lunatic.

I marvelled at his supposed wisdom which is diehard folly.

Moderators don collect money to open ground for SLTV marketers. Mscheew. We’ve seen this time without number.

DStv or nothing. Other alternatives are lacking and inferior.

Did you even read the post or you just rushed to comment.

Atimes when I realise how vanity life is I loose all might to fight for anything. I know of a man who worked all his life, dude was able to build a chain of company after a while and when he was starting to gear up and make his name count in the business world, he tapped out. Families sold most of his properties off and shared the loot. For real, nothing is worth it and everything is worth it. I just feel one shouldn't take life hard, just live like tomorrow is the last, don't plan having fun for later. That vacation you imagine, do it as soon as now as tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans. Imagine folks who would have logged out of the world just today with lots of ambitions been chased. Some even die in the process of getting it done. Damn. No wonder God wept after creating man.

chopnaira:
Why is he running if he is not guilty.

So you think everyone roasted alive for stealing is guilty or everyone in the police net is guilty. Pray make you no fall into hand, you will realise police is and will never be your friend. Check Aluu boys 2012 for reference. The boys were killed and roasted alive for nothing.

Greenfaces:
he get right to pursue am na

On what ground? Can a man run with cement?

immortalcrown:
The wages of sin death. Azeez paid himself.

Very judgemental preek. What if he didn't steal it and he was just scared of Lynching.


The way you guys are too forward in judging folks is pure irritating even Jesus isn't that fast.

Everything.

You labour all your live, pay bills, go to school, look for you good jobs, buy cars but everything you can think of. At the end you don't even know when death will come knocking.

I will go with David, like dude how were you so able to enjoy that grace called Favour. I need to know

Beverlyjean:
U definitely have an empty skull ... just like some feom borno complaining that he was almost kidnapped in Edo state

Okay.

Some fools left the log in their eyes and decided to attack onitsha

Cc. Najiaprince18. Deepthroater , Oracleee , damilola4162

Like I expected victim card. We pointed out certain things and anomalies we experienced and you called us fools for that? Who is the victim here? If every igbo does and act like you, I doubt nothing good will ever come out of the tribe. It's disheartening seeing this just because I told y'all what I went through in onitsha. Spit on you.

Political miscreats and brains don't go well in same context.

Everyday in lagos...traffic robbers / Agberos, harrass motorists , stealing from them and robbing them... agberos will harrass people that wanna use the pedestrian bridge and force them to pay b4 crossing, one chance is the order of the day in lagos , alot of local parks in lagos team up with ritualists to drive passenfers to their den .... Everyday, people get missing in lagos ....the number of darkspots in lagos is astronomic .... and u are here talking about onitsha .... people wey make sense de talk ....skull miners follow de talk

How many times in Lagos have you gotten to Berger and you want to take bus to iyana ipaja but the driver and touts reroute you with force and coercion that you must go to ketu first? Crime isn't based on a particular tribe but then igbos go too defensive and play the victim card when the anomalies in their region are pointed out. If you are going to ikeja ikorodu and mistakenly take a fare to ketu, danfo conductor fit para for you that one no mean e no go show you road.

I can tell a little boy to come to Lagos and take bus from anywhere to any destination of choice but I will be mad and crazy if I try the same thing in onitsha as the boy can be rerouted to umuahia. Call a spade a spade and drop the victim card. Lagos is a learner with the crime rate in onitsha. We just don't have many yorubas and hausas in onitsha to report how bad things are.


No one who goes to onitsha for the first time or pass through won't have a bitter tale to tell.

my friend go and sit down!
Lagos is indeed learning. Because other people don't whine like you guys. Deaths, serious injuries, bullying have been experienced by many Igbo people in the hands of Lagos Yoruba agberos, people don't complain doesn't mean they don't happen. You people already have a fixed mindset about the east and her people - a negative mindset. So anything u experienced in the east serves as a validation to that mindset whereas your people do worse in your region and others don't whine and complain like you.

The moment you igbos stop the playing the victim card the better for y'all. There you go again with the victim card. Never accepting your faults but finding who to blame. Have a great day.

razzydoo:
you better keep quiet if your brain is not working. Well, you can experiment with this your theory so we can know how it ends.

You already retorted to cyber bullying. I made my mind known, you could as well but not going through this path. Have a great day hitherto.

Antivirus92:
anambra is not close to Ogun, oyo and osun states in crime. Your people are always looking for a little opportunity to paint the east bad. Many Igbos have had terrible experiences in the hands of Lagos Yoruba agberos but you don't see them complaining up and down on nairaland

I am not a tribalist, but I refute this claim. Anambra especially onitsha is filled with miscreats and so much low lifes that with the crime probability, you will agree lagos is learning. Let me share 3 major experiences that made me detest that place like poison.

1. I was going to Ishiagu in ebonyi very close to Four corner Enugu. I really don't know my way around the east so I took Public bus from Lagos to onitsha and from onitsha, I was going to take Ishiagu or so. Bus driver from Lagos advised me to be careful when I get to upper iweka as it's filled with badboys (in his language). But then I underestimated it. Was almost robbed twice in broad daylight. Got to part at upper iweka. They don't even tell you were buses are going, they just ask where you're going. I said Ishiagu they told me 7000. I paid and was like finally a straight bus. I familiarized with people inside the bishop and told them how far is ishaigu. They asked what I'm going for there and I told them isn't that where the bus is going? Turned out bishop carried lots of IMo, Abia etc. Came down to meet rhw agbero who already gave me ticket, dude was so rough and was like he can't refund me bla bla bla. I won't get robbed over my hard earned money. I made a big scene and locked the guys clothe. The park manager another thug was like he will give me 4000 and 3000 for ticket. 3000 for just sitting in your car for few minutes. My 7000 or nothing. They folks inside the bus came down and the showdown started. They were forced to refund me 6000 I still didn't leave till I get the full refund. It later turned out from onitsha to Enugu four corner was 1200 and four corner to Ishiagu I saw a drop for 2000.


2. going back trip, my host took me to four corner and from there I got direct bus to head bridge. If I'm correct Op would be talking about the park immediately after head bridge where lots of luxurious bus have pit stops. I'm to take bus to ibadan as I wanted spending some time in ibadan before going back to Lagos. Spoke with the supposed driver, said 7k no big deal. Na so them dey carry Lagos passenger, ilorin passenger any passenger you see. We got to know when we all sat and joked around on the bus. But I will definitely get to Ijebu around 7-9 with the time if it's not direct bus to ibadan, I may be stranded. Na so I come down, driver are you sure this bus will get to ibadan? If you stop for Ijebu you won't like what I will do o. Driver said taaarh leave that thing na straight to ibadan. Iwo road. We were two going to ibadan in the vehicle. Na so one driver sitting down, Yoruba man told me stylishly Eko lo n lo o. Omoh I changed it for the driver. I can go dirty if I need to I evolved due to constant bullies in secondary school to be hyperdefensive if I feel cheated. Omoh baba at 60+. I told him he was a old crook and tyrant. Ilorin people dey inside bus, Lagos people and Ibadan, are you a kidnapper? One of the agberos wanted going physical bit he calm down as he was confused on who I was. Las Las they went abusive emotionally, like this man is old enough to be your father nna. Story for the gods. I collected my money and said goodbye to the lady I already collected her number. She was going to ibadan also but very very unsmart. Immediately I walk small I saw one sienna with Oyo YYY Plate. Ibadan. He stopped 7000 ni o. Conductor said In a deep molete voice. 3000 ni mo ni. Conductor be like o ni oko wo. Shey was San 5000. Oya eduro. Na so I reach ibadan around 7. I later called the lady, they got to Ijebu around 8 and driver dropped all ibadan and ilorin passenger and gave then stipends. I asked if none of them slapped him, She said they were mostly ladies. I ended up picking her up around 1am in new garage Ibadan and helping her to her place.


Onitsha is filled with lowlifes, rogues, thieves and scam artiste

Its self defense, the dude slapped her first. If the law will take its course you will be acquitted. I remember reading a case of the stand your ground rule of law in the United State. If you talk a bit loud and I feel threatened, I can take a gun and shoot you. Omoh oyinbo dey craze

Whatever rocks your boat. We are all gifted and unique in our different ways. Some folks communicate better by speaking and some will prefer to put their thoughts into words than voice it. VN is a great invention
