Religion / Re: Nasarawa Church Cancels A Wedding Because The Lady Is Three Months Pregnant by paulbets: 2:10pm On Dec 18, 2016 |
Montaque:Ok. Although in my own town and side tradition that's the case. I would like to know the exact igbo town that pay bride price of a pregnant lady. Could you Enlighten me pls. I had taught it was general for Igbo Nation. |

Montaque:We are almost saying the same thing. Cohabiting and child bearing does not change anything. And bride price does not have a price; that's why in some places you can ascribe it to as something one can never finish paying. Generally in the tradition, if bride price has not been paid or some sort of arrangements made, then the woman is just cohabiting with you |

Badgers14:Bros, although am not sure of the church's reason for cancelling the wedding because the lady is pregnant. But I want you to stop seeing it as a case of sin. In some tradition in Nigeria, you don't pay bride price for your pregnant wife to be; not just because you impregnating her through premarital sex was sinful (I doubt if they care), but because she is two in one at that moment, and one cannot pay bride price for mother and child. I want you to see it from that angle. Therefore in cases like this, the bride price will be paid at a later date when the woman is not pregnant. |

Traditionally in Igbo Land, you can't pay bride price of a pregnant woman So I don't think is much about the sinfulness of fornication, premarital sex or the shame of bearing child out of wedlock... but because marriage practically and critically involves only man and woman. All the same people should always be truthful as there is always a way and some sort of arrangement to overcome all kinds of challenges, circumstances or conditions. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Career / Re: BREAKING : Nigeria's Amina Mohammed Announced As UN Deputy Secretary-general by paulbets: 11:55pm On Dec 15, 2016 |
Very happy for her. But then, I don't understand the fuss about pushing that a woman must be UN Secretary general by some of these colombian and other civil society groups. Should people be giving a position simply because they are female? Seems being a female carries more privilege? Then what's the gender equality all about? I thought occupying any position should be based on competency and capabilities, and not gender based? Amina rocks though 1 Like |

Agriculture / Re: EU Lifts Ban On Beans Exportation From Nigeria. by paulbets: 1:34pm On Nov 18, 2016 |
i have heard this analogy before, it sounds somewhat true. but then i have wondered, if Dangote sold a bag of cement for N2000 when exchange rate was N200 to a $, don't you think the same bag will sell upto N3000 when exchange rate is anything around N450 to a $. Because even in this current economic situation in Nigeria, cost of local productions have increased, thereby making some locally produced commodities to cost more than before. This thought has always been my reservation about benefits of weaker Naira. Although i will like to understand more behind it. PapaBrowne: |

Celebrities / Re: Chidinma Okeke Hands Over Crown Amid Sex Video Scandal (Video, Pics) by paulbets: 11:16am On Oct 24, 2016 |
Sir, I could deduce something from that video that I quite found strange. if one listened to the music playing in the background, it was Frank Edward's "Okaka" which was released late 2014, meaning the act could have occurred anytime between early 2015 to this late 2016; and that it did not occur in party or related environment. it was girls relaxation play nothing more. And if you observe the ambience, it looked like someone's apartment and was cozy for them. After seeing the video, I want to believe it was just the girls random play which they are used to and nobody was coerced into anything. However releasing the video to the public could be as a result of beef with concerned parties or recklessness on somebody's part. I believe she will be fine soon enough and even achieve greater things, and this unfortunate occurrence won't do much to taint her. She is not the worse, neither the first and I wish her success in all her future endeavors. lalasticlala: 2 Likes |
Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Fresh Nationwide Stanbic IBTC Graduate Trainee Recruitment Program by paulbets: 3:07pm On Oct 18, 2016 |
They lifted the questions from this your site; however in other to make it look sound Nigerian, they made so many mistakes and used different names, data and incomplete details.. for different questions. That's why we got questions that are not related with answer options.. and even questions that are not complete... like the 7 billion budget question where they failed to give exact figure for agricultural subsidies. effwhy: 3 Likes |

Honestly the assessment was unnecessarily difficult given the time constraint. I also think that each question will carry different point, or maybe it was there way of wasting ones time. |

donblade855:That's very good. Go on with your screening at your university of choice. I hope the biology is not required for your course of study. Good luck |
Education / Re: Why Is My Biology Waec Result Showing Outstanding by paulbets: 5:42pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
donblade855: just be patient and also pray, they will release it on a later date and you will see your grade. They are probably investigating to know whether there was malpractice on that subject by you or your center. So wait it out, it will definitely show up on a later date. Hopefully not more than a month from today. how were your other subjects? I wish you luck. |

Bros, I have tried to upgrade to Windows 10 severally, but each time after downloading the update to 100%, when is about to start installing, it will just delete the already downloaded update, and start re-downloading it all over again. I have been in this vicious cycle for days. My Laptop is Acer Aspire E1-571, core i3, came with Windows 8 but I upgraded it to 8.1, the memory is 4gb while the HDD is 500gb. Please what can I do to carry out the update successfully. Thanks GloryIsaac: |
