Naija ladies are waking up. Creating their own happiness in the absence of a marriage.
No one really cares, except the gender that claims not to benefit from marriage.
No one said they don’t. For those that can’t gave this beautiful marriage, they can as well have beautiful kids. Don’t worry about finding men. Men do not benefit from marriage, they shouldn’t be found.
All i can say here is that: If there was peace in the first marriage there wouldn't have been any opportunity for Mercy to get the man. Just like in the case of Maria, the man had already abandoned his family for more than two years before meeting Maria. It may also be the case with Mercy's husband. So, we should advice women to learn to keep their husbands at home that's all.
ChiefSosa: Would you make this statement if the first wife was your sister or daughter? Would you advice her to just 'collabo' and move on with the woman that snatched her LEGALLY married husband? If they were DIVORCED, I don't think she'll cry out like this, she'll only count her losses. But, as long as they're not LEGALLY divorced, she's got the right to cry out and not just 'collabo' and move on.
Ayatullah: Be focused on the discussion on the table! Don't create diversion, you cannot do that! You just have to bring your proof (which is definitely nonexistent) that Jesus the son of Mary is God.
there are proves that Jesus Christ is God. if u doubt me asked and I shall enlighten u
abu12: ENUGU— Minister of Labour, Dr Chris Ngige, has dismissed the statement credited to the National Secretary of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Dr Joe Nwaorgu, accusing President Buhari of allegedly promoting politics of exclusionism against Ndigbo.
Ngige, a former governor of Anambra State, also faulted the claims that the inability of President Muhammadu Buhari to pull the country out of the current recession was due to lack of an economic team, saying that those orchestrating such claims were job seekers who failed in their bid to be appointed ministers.
The minister spoke in an interview with reporters at the annual convention and 2016 graduation ceremony of Skill Acquisition Students of Bina Foundation, founded by Chris Atuegwu and his wife, Lady Ifeoma, weekend.
He said that contrary to the statement purportedly made by Ohanaeze that Ndigbo were being excluded, Buhari’s antecedents showed that “he loves Ndigbo,” warning Igbo to stop alienating themselves politically, but instead, embrace other parts of the country with open hands.
His words: “I am sure the statement did not emanate from Ohanaeze. It is the personal opinion of the Secretary General, Dr Joe Nwaorgu, who is my personal friend. Ohanaeze has means of expressing its views through press statements, which are usually signed by the President General and the Secretary. Such statements must also emanate from Imeobi (inner caucus).
“When you go to Buhari’s antecedents, you see his love for Igbo. His Brigade Commander was an Igboman. After the war, he did not kill prisoners of war. He brought back his classmates, J.C. Ojukwu and the other man from Ojoto in Anambra State. He is a good man. He keeps to himself and does not socialise but, he is disciplined in office.”
Ngige further noted that since there was an understanding that the presidency would go round, Ndigbo would get their turn by embracing other parts of the country with open hands

" They said President Obasanjo is coming... I went to borrow the kind of cars they wanted... Instead of spending millions... From a neigbouring state."
"I requested Obasanjo to spend the nights in my lodge Since they said he must sleep over... I asked my wife to pack out of my bedroom... We went opposite to lodge in a hotel (name mentioned) for the week, we paid N30,000 instead of N100,000."
"I used the 150million for 2 bullet proof cars to buy almost 50 Peugeot cars at 3 million each.. gave 17 to JUDGES and 18 to permanent Secretaries (because i discovered they did not have cars) and kept 10 for govt house... which I used as Governor... I did not use bullet proof cars as Governor."

♡♡♡♡♤♤♤♤ PETER OBI....WORDS ON MARBLE! "
The former Governor of Anambra state, Peter Obi made some staggering revelations on how most states are run.
He made this revelation while speaking at The Platform, a program organised by Covenant Christian Center.
The former Governor also called on Nigerians to stop celebrating criminality, adding that there is enough money for development in Nigeria.
Obi, who spoke on the topic: Cutting cost in governance, said he saved over N75b for Anambra state.
Obi said he saved $50m and N7b in Access bank, $55m and N10b in Fidelity bank, and $155.4m in Diamond bank.
According to him, the over-bloated spending habit of most governors is what is causing poverty.
Obi also added that the states can still function on their income and still save money.
The former Governor called on Nigerians to question the commitments of the leaders who they voted into office.
He also slammed religious leaders for not speaking up against corruption, especially when they know the person has not viable source of income.
Speaking on calls to borrow money to boost the economy, Obi said “There is nothing wrong with borrowing. The crisis we are facing is that we do not know what we are using the money we are borrowing for.”
Highlighting ways on how Governors can save money, he said:
1. Governors spend N600 - N800b to run their office and sponsor their aides.
2. Initiate competitive procurement.
3. Do away with unconstitutional office of the first lady which is run with N2b.
4. Reduce Governor’s cars to 2, instead of 6 bullet-proof cars.
5. Reduce Govt house jeeps instead of 25 jeeps.
He revealed to the audience that it used to cost him and his contingent, 10m per trip to Abuja when he travels.
Obi said he had to cut down the expenses, because he found out that over 30 people who had nothing to do in Abuja were going with him.
"When Ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo wanted to come to Anambra state, they were supposed to used N500m to construct a presidential lodge, but I asked the President to sleep in my house through-out his stay," he said.
Finally, the former Governor asked Nigerian youths to take back their future by joining politics.
Peter Obi is a recipient of numerous national awards and recognition as a result of his

I know I am guilty like millions of others that are not Muslims, that have the erroneous belief, that Muslim women are suppose to be seen and not heard.
The Appointment of this young lady,in a conservative Muslim State shows how far we have come in this Democratic setting.
I am happy she is the face of the Youths in her State. No more child marriage for our girls.
she probably must have paid for this appointment in in kind my friend, so stop acting the part of a learner
I’m compelled to say a few words on the attempt by some people to apportion blame on President Muhammadu Buhari on the state of the economy and also share my view on the call by Senator Dino Malaye on the President to sack some ministers and Central Bank Governor as the solution to the problem.
As a former Chairman of the House Committee on Finance, and until recently Appropriation, I am in a good position to contribute and proffer solutions to the problem.
Let me state very categorically that the President is not to blame on the state of our economy today. It is unfair and very wicked to push such blame on a man who just came on board barely a year ago. Not even a magician can turn around the economy within a period of one year. The biggest spending in our economy, that is the budget, hasn’t even run a full course of one year. Yet, some people want to crucify President Buhari. Haba! Let’s face reality!
[b]We all know how badly oil price has gone, a situation that adversely affected our foreign reserves and mounted pressure on the naira. No matter what approach we adopt to manage and deal with the situation, recovery will be slow. It is not President Buhari’s fault. Everyone seems to forget when the whole country was supporting more spending as against saving. But here we are today, soaked in the rainy day. President Buhari should not be used as anybody’s scape goat!
The recurrent expenditure, which has escalated and constituted a huge burden on our yearly budget rose from N950.32billion in 2006 to N1.372.20 trillion in 2008 and N2.593.62 trillion in 2015. This was not created by President Buhari.
Similarly, the total cash call (oil production cost) which rose from about N200 billion in 2006 to about N1.2 trillion in 2015 was not a creation of President Buhari. The cash call has remained another tale of burden on our yearly budget. Statutory transfers including that of the NASS are not left behind. Statutory transfers rose from just about N100 billion in 2006 to N375.62 billion in 2015. President Buhari was not the President then.
Debt servicing also rose from about N300 billion in 2006 to N953.62 billion in 2015. These expenditures have over the years constrained the budget and made it difficult to channel sufficient funds towards productive sectors that can sufficiently grow the economy. Domestic borrowing also skyrocketed during this period and created devastating consequences on the economy.
Government at that time continued to mop up money from commercial banks at a rate considered one of the highest in the world, while the real sector is left with nothing. And even when they were able to access funds, it came with an unbearable interest rate. President Buhari met this situation on ground. He did not create it, but is doing his very best to take us out of the economic quagmire. We should all support him.[/b]
On the call by Sen. Melaye on Mr. President to sack some ministers, I disagree with that proposition. Nigerians are of the habit of asking for the sack or removal of public officers, often for sentimental reasons, envy or simply for an opportunity to join the fray. In my assessment, I have not seen any member of the President’s cabinet today — from SGF, HOS to ministers — that is not good enough to hold the office. At worse, the President may wish to reshuffle a couple of or more ministers based on their strength and weaknesses for better service delivery.
A minister doesn’t have to know everything. A minister has an ample latitude to draw knowledge from the MDAs staff or within the larger society to achieve result in his ministry. I believe that most of the present cabinet ministers can source information or knowledge from these reservoir when the need arises. I have worked very closely with most of them and I am convinced that they have proved their mettle despite managing a very difficult situation that they did not create.
I am sure nobody can question the competence of Udoma Udoma. Finance Minister Kemi Adeosun is also doing her best, and having worked with her, I am convinced she has all it takes to turn around the economy. The Central Bank Governor is managing the most challenging period the apex bank has ever witnessed. I think the president has worked with this team for about a year. His cabinet team understands him better and vice-versa.
I believe if they stay focused and refuse to be distracted, we shall soon start seeing the dividends. The President must not fall for the trap of people trying to distort the progress made so far. Whoever he appoints again, the call for sack will never stop.Â
I am therefore calling on my colleague, brother and friend, Senator Dino Malaye that we should rather look inward and address our own contribution to this problem as lawmakers. We can start by addressing the budget and other monumental fraud under the watch of Speaker Yakubu Dogara, a systemic corruption that affected and continued to derail the economy of our dear country. That is the appropriate place to start. Remember, charity begins at home!Â
