Family › Re: HER HUSBAND DROPS ONLY 3k EVERYDAY FOR SHE AND HER TWO KIDS. PLEASE ADVISE HER by Patented: 10:30am On Sep 11, 2023
Kobojunkie:
Why should she have to do that if her place in the marriage is as a homemaker and not as a provider? If she is to resort to taking on part of the husband's responsibility as the sole provider in the household, shouldn't it equally follow that the man shares in her responsibilities as a home maker?undecided
she has to state the further facts to paint the full story if indeed she needs advise. providing half a story is being clever by half.
meanwhile i did not at any point say she is to become a provider. i merely asked for other details that would help in making an informed balanced judgment. Abi did you read me saying she should become provider or cover any costs? or you are just shooting from the hip?

before I would condemn the man or her for that matter i would like the benefit of a complete narrative.

She should also add what he earns monthly and whether there is food stuff at home other than the 3k he drops.
People complaining tell stories skewed to favour the narrative they want to push.

Kenmatt:
Why wasting your money in the name of paying tithes?

Most of you claim you go to Church, you read and receive Bible teachings but you don't understand the teachings of Bible.

Just like Philip and the man he met near the River bank.
Let them keep reading na, understanding go come. Shebi practice makes perfect. Tithing is personal, I pay it even though I don't believe it is compulsory. It's the minimum standard for me. I also pay it as I deem fit, sometimes to church, sometimes to support a worthy charitable cause.

Jewessgratitud3:
Is it right to split your tithe to different parishes if you don't want your parish to know how much you're earning? Will it still cumulate as tithe?

Is this a wrong or deceptive move?
It's absolutely fine in my opinion. The Church of God is one. Pay your Tithe where you deem fit and don't let anybody blackmail you

IjeBos:
Thanks. That makes sense.
So, a friend of mine recently cautioned me against it. Told me he had a friend die in Ikoyi biking. I'm double minded and so following the path of least resistance, most likely won't bring a bike, but would still like to bike at least once while I'm there. Is there any place to rent a decent bike? Appreciate all the info.
i think i know the Ikoyi story, i have a friend wo knew they guy. if you will be staying in an estate then you can do it in there.
Investment › Re: Company Registration. by Patented: 1:30pm On Aug 26, 2023
oyolima:
I want to register a company, what is the cost house ?
Can I also register a company without a lawyer.
You can register without a lawyer. Go to CAC website. However using a lawyer can give u an edge when it comes to how to structure the company depending on what business you intend to run and what your future plans are.

Registering a company has been simplified in the online world but structuring the registration right and future proofing needs lawyers and finance experts.

If you come and meet me for instance for legal advice after you hv started on your own.....I go charge u pass sef😁

Family › Re: How Do You Love A Difficult Partner? by Patented: 1:57pm On Aug 24, 2023
a partner you find difficult is likely to wear you out eventually. at that point you will not even be able to manage, so do not enter marriage with such a person would be my advice. in fact don't stay in a relationship with such a person

note that i said "find difficult" that's cos the concept is subjective.

Chironks:
Love is beautiful, however, it can be challenging to manage.

How can one look past the partners' flaws and love them regardless?

Flaws in this context is when a partner lacks common sense.

Caveatemptor:
Sorry it is not a quarrel.
I experienced an infestation of those small black roaches when I moved to PH in mid 2000s. They were everywhere and I used every expensive insecticide you could think of to combat them to no avail. They just kept on multiplying. So I cam understand the OPs anguish.
one method no dey work most times, except u like pay all these fumigation people. most times na combo. also one treatment will never work cos insecticide does not tend to affect the eggs which will hatch after the adults are dead. so na weekly treatment for like 3-4 weeks i recommend. i have bought the chinese powder before and it did not work for me(may have been fake)

Rambo can never kill those small cockroaches completely they are terrible. It is only that Chinese powder that can suffocate them to death. Rambo can kill those big cockroaches but those small black ones are resistant to insecticides.
U did read that I said use in combination with other solutions abi?
Family › Re: (updated, they all died)Black Cockroach Is Killing Me. by Patented:
Best spray for roaches is Rambo. Use it with the other solutions. Put camphor in cupboards and drawers and other non electric hiding places
Politics › Re: What Has Yorubas Really Gained From Top Positions Held? by Patented: 3:28pm On Aug 21, 2023
if you think deep beyond your tribal lens you will see that no tribe has ever gained anything (as a people) from having their persons in positions of power.

mokwechineme:
The elites among them have continued too gain and get fatter though but the majority of Yorubas are still extremely poor. If u visit Yoruba land outside the state capitals, you will be depressed. You will encounter where people co-habit with extreme penury, peasants at its dplorable state.
The truth is, Yoruba elites dont care about Yoruba as a nation but about the selected, prominent and lucky few. The rest yorubas are tools to sustaining the aristocratic system
Politics › Re: Another Scramble For Africa Is Presently Ongoing But Nigerians Are Busy Fighting by Patented: 1:20pm On Aug 18, 2023
standard!! we generally do not see beyond our noses. E get why we be as we be.

naija1stnigar:
Going back to history we all aware of how the Berlin conference of 1884/1885 birth what we know as the scramble for Africa. Different African tribes and nations were taken captive and reorganized by famous European powers and we're governed directly from those countries like Britain, France, Portugal etc.
As times went by Nigerians were schooled in different parts of the world, and would later realize the importance of self governance. The exploits of great Nigerians like Chief Nnamdi Azikiwe, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Anthony Enahoro and others later birth our independence from our colonial masters, many of which granted those independence with tears because they knew what they would loose.
After they had all left, an uncommon and unconventional concept called"neo- colonialism continues to exist up till date, and that has brought the the rich continent of Africa to her kneels, as supposed leaders of different African States would always grant the interest of Western powers at the detriment of the citizens of such countries. Our resources has birth more successes to the west and in contrast more misfortune to Africans. This invisible but powerful concept has shown how myopic an average African can be.
The case of Nigeria is peculiar here because, as a country with over 250 ethnic groups and speaks over 300 languages we have over the years embarked on hatred along our different ethnic lines and are always ready to fight one another to defend the interest of a few who called themselves leaders but are only there to sell the rest of us out.
A lot of us are still locked up in that inter tribal hatred while another scramble for Africa is already on going.
This time between mighty powers like Russia, China and north Korea against Western powers like the United States, the United kingdom, France and others. If we can see clearly, we will know how soldiers are beginning to overthrow civilian governments in different African countries like Burkina Faso, Mali, Equatorial Guinea and just recently Niger which is the closest to Nigeria. Without any doubt we can all see how the Russian president has publicly backed these countries up and we can also see how the west is making inroads to this issue using puppet Ecowas headed by Bola Tinubu who heads the committee of west African leaders with slave mentality. Without any doubt it is quite possible that a proxy war might begin in no distant time, which is likely be fought by to puppet Ecowas and other Russian controlled slave states in Africa. But Nigerians have gone quiet on this issue, with our education, we see no reason to speak out when even if the war starts those foreign nations have nothing to loose, but we will rather have many things to loose, ranging from economy to security to infrastructure even to the lives of our loved ones, but we have rather chosen to remain indolent and rather find pleasure in attacking ourselves along ethnic and religious lines. In view of this, the following are the few questions to ask from sound minds:
1. Why has Africa always been victim to the west?
2. even with our education this time when another scramble for Africa is presently ongoing, what can we do to revive Africa from foreign dominance?
3.Shall we continue in our inter tribal/ inter religious hatred and achieve anything?
4. To drive back these foreign forces who are hell bent on destroying the future of our coming generations requires that Africans unite, is this unity possible when the Average Yoruba hates the Average Igbo because of Tinubu vs Peter obi matter?
5. What should we do to make sure that Nigeria does not become a victim of this scramble that has gotten to our neighbors Niger and what role should the Nigerian youths play this time to prevent that from happening.
Thanks, I will be expecting reasonable comments.

find your own and run with it.

physical attributes do not and cannot determine how a marriage will turn out.
Discountenance all the good qualities of your woman, then look at the bad/annoying attributes square in the face and ask yourself whether you can live with that.
If yes proceed, if in doubt press pause, if NO, run!!

Hello nairalanders, esp those men with family men, I mean those who have vast experience as married men. I recently met a lady that I wish to marry as a wife, but when I told an elder who knows about how gentle I am and how don't go about following women, he simply said I should look for another that short women do suffer men far more than the average or tall ones. I was kind of dumb stocked cos I found it to believe . However , I do know that short women can be troublesome but that his claim that short women suffer men more seems unbelievable to me
Romance › Re: I'm Afraid To Have Sex With Her by Patented: 4:36pm On Aug 10, 2023
abstinence is good.

Crystalom35:
It's not a lie. Everything grows and sometimes a man just have to do what he needs to do.

I have been with this wonderful girl for a while now.

The relationship has been very good and peaceful. I couldn't ask for more.

But recently things have not been the same and I've been rethinking a lot of my decision and one of those is sex.

Sex life is good but lately I'm becoming afraid.

First off, I won't want to abort her pregnancy if it shows up. But then again, I won't be able to maintain her and the baby if she were to give birth.

I don't have much more as I'm still in school and she's still in school.

So, we are both living off our parents.

And it would be disastrous if pregnancy should come in especially these trying times.

So I'm considering hanging the boots and keeping away from sex from now on.

I just am afraid she'll cheat on me in the long run but then again, my fear of "irresponsibility" of not being able to take care of the pregnancy if it ever happens is worse.

So, now this relationship needs a new direction. Maybe I'm wrong. I just don't know.

From Gurara LGA, we moved to a place called Pikorro (forgive the spelling), towards Minna, I was so hungry by now.....the person with me wasn't bordered at all. The food I had with me for no reason I forgot it.

In Pikorro we couldn't get what we where looking for we moved to Minna (I had made some contacts prior to today in Minna),........Disappointingly they where all in Abuja.

One thing you need to note is that once you are travelling and you have an opportunity to eat, please do...


In Minna we ate something (very hot food)...... then I was offered security (I rejected it)..... no be una wan drag attention to.

scoobyblogspot:
My ex was having some issues with me cause of my addiction to alcohol and a lot of times I misbehave then, although I have changed now that I am married.

Well, she asked us to take a break from the relationship which I refused and she said she has made up her mind already, I pleaded but she refused so i respected her decision but I kept calling her and chatting with her so we don’t go far from each other. The feeling was fading as contact wasn't regular anymore.

Let me caught the long story short

I found someone else, now my wife and she is so understanding and caring towards me, when she got to know this, she hated me and called me all sort of names and wept via chat that is it because she asked for a break just to test me that I broke her heart and she also didnt give me S**?. Don’t judge me yet, I found some missed calls from a guy who kept calling her by 12am on video call at night and sent her gifts upon gift, even took her out secretly. I missed her anyways and I know she misses me too, we have both moved on but I can’t stop thinking about her months after our break up.

So I am very confused right now because of all this red flag I am seeing.

I lost my wife early last year when she was birthing my third child and only son, I have had my family taking care of the boy since then and now there is need to move on.

There is this lady I am currently seeing, we are both serious with the relationship, infact I have met her family to disclose my intentions and we are planning to get married this December.

Now, this is the issue, this lady is very stingy to herself. She is an entrepreneur, she runs her own business and is doing averagely well, she can afford to cater for need without anyone's support. She has been complaining of body pains and body weakness for almost 2 months but she refused to take herself to the hospital and when I complaint she told me that I should give her money, I am not trying to say it is bad if I give her money to do that but she is quite aware that things are not very rosy for me now.

I am really confused now because I don't plan to wife a liability, I think I will opt out of this relationship.
hope you have warned her that if she messes with the kids you would kick her out ASAP. now back to your dilemma.....e get as e be, if she does not see the need to take care of her health..........another person's health nko?
