I'm kicking my self right now for not checking my inbox earlier. Etisalat gave me free 1023 mb and 695 free seconds, valid for a week.

Funny thing, MTN also gave me free 1Gb last week


Seems like they really care about their subscribers in spite of the recession.



And believe me, signal is spectacular.

So check your inbox guys. You never know.

Bride price is buying and selling of the daughter to the family there's no way to romanticize that. It is what it is. Some tribe if the husband dies they transfer her to the brother if he has one. If you don't want to believe this then don't subscribe to bride price and if you do this is simply what it means.

Thank you man. That's the point I was making but the Op keeps trying to distort with soothing soft words.

Damian2016:
on a more serious note though, there is absolutely no positive correlation between garri and memory. If for anything, it limits your ability to focus and concentrate.

You dey mad

Gaari has sharpened more brains than I can count

And at the end some people will say Lagos is not a Yoruba state

chikk:
.... to you, not to every single African or culture



....thank you for confirming my statement above



... as seen by you.



... this goes both ways brother, or sister



the world is what you make of it



....again, according to you, not to every person, culture or tribe

This is getting boring. Mention one tribe where brideprice wasn't intially formulated as a means for selling women into marriage.

I get tired of nonsense like "the word is what you make of it".

It's like arguing that the word "Nazi" is what you make of it


If you can't mention a tribe where the original concept of brideprice was to sell women, don't quote me pls.

Yuneehk:
Kay.em.jay writes such stories and you'll love them as he's very good. Don't include the "dots " when searching for his moniker. I haven't Read red ashes but I will very soon. I'll mention some other writers for you if you want.

Yeah, please do mention.

PaperLace:
When the child grows up to be fond of his mum, they'll say she has incited them against their dad.
This is how some Nigerian men are, they will deny their marital status and family just because of temporary pussie. Let's not act like it's a new thing, there are so many men like that_ some are even on this thread.

Bisola didn't deny her child, that's a mother's love.

What sort of irrational dumbfucked nonsense is this

Wolfboi:
Don't say that, which money - the power is woman

Listen to yourself :

Tell me, if Trump wishes today, can't he straff any woman he wishes?

If Bill Gate decides to divorce his wife and marry again, will he have a shortage of beautiful big-bosomed women begging him up and dan


It's sad that you view women as the ultimate source of power when throughout history; they've always just be a distraction from the real conquest of power.

Yuneehk:
Type what you know na. Few action packed stories are there too. To you they could be jumbled nonsense love stories but I find them interesting. They raise more boredom for you but kills it for me. What fuels yours is what eases mine as we're two different people

PS: I don't watch zeeworld

Hmm One man's gaari is another man's icecream indeed

Care to refer me to the "action-based" stories


One NL lit story hit fp today "Red Ashes" or so. Is it any good?
The thing long pass fibonacci sequence so I don't want to start what will later turn out to be boring

chikk:
Well I already did. Too bad. Are you M/F? That'd help in understanding your viewpoint

Do I sound female

chikk:
Well, I beg to differ. I like to think that the concept is targeted at making the groom part with something of value so he can appreciate what he is getting. You could be right and I wrong but then, I'd think this better than for one to go with the mindset that she's someone's "acquired property". That has made some women lose their self worth and esteem

The concept of brideprice is selling your daughter into marriage : plain and simple.

That is why if a marriage goes bad, the groom's family usually asks for the dowry back in most cultural tribes.

That is the equivalent of collecting your money back for a faulty product.

And what you "like to think" isn't what it really is.
Why try to delude yourself into thinking brideprice and dowries are romantic gestures and whatnot.

In africa, women are basically property, chattel.

Mindfulness:
It's becoming Russia.

Don't even dare compare President Putin to trump.
Trump is Putin's bitch anyday anytime

Mr "grab them by the pussy" can't handle a lil media criticism... How telling

Anyone who supports the move yet shout blue murder when DSS invades newspapers is a fucking hypocrite

Yuneehk:
Unfortunately No

How would you define NL literature stories as "intresting"

Most of it is a jumbled nonsense love stories spun of telemundo and Zeeworld addiction.

And the erotica is worse than unrealistic, it's boring.


So how the f**k does that section kill boredom It only raises it

BreezyRita:
So what do you suggest? Scrapping of bride price? Swidy, its tradition.

You see it that way and I see it as good things not coming easy

I don't really care much for the whole liberal/Conservative schism.

Given the whole trend of information streaming to this country, Brideprice will soon die out anyways.

Don't just try to redefine it like it's something noble with soothing nonsense "Something good not coming easy".

OP, if you're bored, you can stream some crazy estoeric stuff...

Like watching ISS live feed for example.


Or beginning to learn programming.

Or reading sweet sweet classics.



Or you can just put on your headphones... Listen to music... Go shirtless, open your window to the breeze and relaxxxxxx........


What a time to be alive!

Yuneehk:
Do you love to read? Check literature section for interesting stories. They always help when I'm bored

That's a joke, right

What people don't realize is that there are some people who are comfortable with long deep relationships but disdain marriage



OP, I'm sure he just views marriage as unecessary.
Don't let NL morons affect you. If your relationship is waxing strong and you have kids with him, why bother


Don't leave homeboy

The death of common sense....

Nonsense

Jesus!

How da Bleep's this a robot for crissake op?

A zombie posing with a statue... The irony life plays

BreezyRita:
Well, a wife isn't bought. And if you're thinking of a wife as a product, whether you haggle or not you still buy. Only makes it cheaper

Technically, the whole concept of brideprice was selling one's daughter into marriage.

So it's wrong to say a wife ain't bought.

TinaAnita:
Who are the strange women? Every woman is a strange woman to the other women. So the wife of a man is a strange woman to his lover. I think life itself is strange so everything is strange.

Nonsense logic

serenegroup:
The best I have read so far on keeping your husband. wives do more than reading oh. Act on this right up. writeup

Fixed. You're welcome

Berbierklaus:
May your days be long.

@ the paranoid logical people up there,y'all fools. Keep reiterating he told her jack up and down the thread like the hediots that you are.
I wish the lady is diabolical,so by the time she makes you as useless as a used tissue, you will think twice before walking up to a woman.

FOOLS

Now this is rather intresting. So you acknowledge the OP is morally and logically in the clear yet you call them idiots for being reasonable about this.

Then you go on to wish the OP evil simply because he decided to spine up and call it quits with the lady.....which was well within his ambits.

It's rather intresting how you females reason like this and still resent being called mentally inferior.


Who's deceiving who

Emzyme:
Lol that is how one started acting all jealous whenever a gal calls me or am talking with one
Bros u shld nt have told her ur plans plainly ,
Give her hope , then crush that hope
Then disappear from her life

Damn! Bro, you're wicked

OluDare01:
Next time, go learn how to talk to people politely. This is a faceless forum, you don't know me, I've never come across you before.
If my post doesn't make sense to you, kindly ignore it.
I'm sure I know well enough before I posted here

Bro, I dispense niceties when someone is peddling falsehood.

Saying lab assitants and technologists have no training is a very grave assumption that must be trashed out.

So I ask again, how many institutions have you been to

hatbricker:
lol I don't blame the guy though, its the ladies fault who have led guys to believe they are the hungry type, many legs have been opened with a packet of indomie and bottle of Pepsi

Most have been opened for even less than that.

Just say nice words and like a danfo door it opens
