The man wife don popular by force


Hope she doesn’t drink sniper because bloggers are out for them

Drink snipper say wetin happen, na today married man die for side chick hand?

Hmm....the scriptwriter is being creative.

Well, the post-mortem toxicology tests would determine whether Usifo used drugs or not before his death.

“I hosted the Nigerian contingent to the 1996 Olympic games at the National Stadium, Lagos on Saturday August 10, 1996. At the event, I announced the donation, by the Lagos State Government, of one plot of land in Lekki to each of Chioma Ajunwa, Falilat Ogunkoya, Mary Onyali, Duncan Dokiwari, Fatima Yusuf, Charity Opara and 18 members of the Under-23 soccer team",......Did Chioma Ajunwa and others get their Lekki plot of land?

For how long will they continue to negotiate, when there would more kidnapping ahead?

Hmm...Things have really fallen apart.

The size of Borno is 70,898 km² while that of Israel is 22,145 km².......no be by landmass but human capital development.

I dunno... you can go to your local Buka, and order a week's worth of soup, stew, meat, fried fish, etc. Store in freezer.
All you need to do is boil rice, eba, yam, and eat with the soup as needed.

Much much cheaper than the costs and headaches of courting, wedding, and maintaining a wife. There's no stress or attitude that comes with the meal, you can go to a different buka without wahala, and you're not spending money to feed the cook

But you know say when such guys get to their 40s and still going to buka to bulk buy food, even those sales girls there go dey use style dey yab am.

Easyincome24:
Imagine paying this huge after he had paid for the bride price when he married her.

Huge? That's their normal, normal as that is probably what the man's father paid as his mum's bride price.....reason cattle rustling is a way of life within that region of Kenya

So sad.

Fake news really spread fast. May his soul rest in peace.

"A distraught Joshua however disclosed that he paid twenty-two (22) cattle and 15 goats for Elizabeth’s hand in marriage"....Being from a pastoralist community, na im dey pain d man pass

May her soul rest in peace.

To Buhari, cows first.

Sad.

Can you imagine!

Lake56:
Good afternoon all, please I need your advice and suggestions. My school gave me invoice to pay tuition deposit today and I see that I have to pay my full tuition balance by September before enrollment. Please is there school that I can apply to for September that is fast with admission and has flexible payment plan.My proof of fund is already 12days. I want masters in agricultural related course (deposit budget £2000).Thanks

You need to be specific on the agricultural related course you want to pursue because you know very well that it is wide.

Correct hitting.

Let the "revival" of forest reserves be restricted to the North, let them chase out Boko Haram and the bandits who are all their kinsmen from the forests in the North and relocate their cows,herdsmen and their families there.

While Buhari is ruling Nigeria like a hamlet!

Sieving is allowed.

All these appointment of all these naive coaches just because they're ex players, young or pundits is a wrong approach. Only someone that has been tested and trusted should be appointed as a coach.

They are learning on the job

Joel3:
People ask me why I don't take girls serious and if I don't plan to marry. One question in my mind is how many women nowadays will submit their money at their man feet ?

My old man run the home even when no one works. And when my mom start working she submit the money at his feet. Girls nowadays are looking for man that will serve them. Count me out.

Are your sisters/female cousins submitting their money at their men' feet ?

SGANIVA:
What if the man is very influencial , people like Tonimas oil and gas,ojukwu's , Young, mko abiola etc will the influence of the first sons ever be inconsequential ?

My focus has been in general terms whether the man was influential or not. Most of those names you mentioned, how many of them has their first sons been exceptional after the demise of their father?

I know someone (Igbo) who did both his traditional and Church wedding without the involvement of his elder brother (first son) who had always threatened the younger brother that he would not as the first son (as their parents have passed on) inform their kinsmen and organize them to go see the younger brother's bride to be family. The other siblings and some kinsmen overruled the first son' irrational mind and also with the support of their ikwu nne (maternal side) the younger brother got married both traditionally and in Church without the presence of the first son.

People are becoming less obligated to birth order rather who the individual is, the positive impact the individual is generating etc.

Kingof2nations:
Ask your self this question
Are you the only one bearing your name currently ?


You know the answer
Anyway in most African societies it could be true as some names are associated with with certain pples

There are tribes in Kenya that bear Opara, Ngige, Olubayo , Ejimba, Okonji, Amadi, Okwara.

SGANIVA:
first son really means a lot, your first son is your representative when you are not around or gone at large , with many responsibilities, power and authority in the family

That belief is gradually dissolving with the present dispersal of families, where family members migrate to different destinations and most times when the parents that band the siblings together have passed on and wealth/properties have been shared (if any) the siblings tend to focus on their own nuclear families building their own legacy for their own children, that one's elder brother is their father's first son increasingly becomes less consequential to them as they longer live in a physical communal setting where they need to continually defer to him on issues or the kinsmen summoning them to reprimand them for disregarding the "authority' of the first son.

It is even worse when they regard their late father as not being a good and responsible father to them, what does the first son want to "represent"?

Xsolutions:
This is sound advice. Please how old was your friend when he went for his postgraduate in the UK?

He was 28 as at last year. For Postgraduate studies, age is not a factor as long as you have acquired your bachelor's degree.

Consume for medicinal use......for Nigeria?

micariice:
I have a girlfriend that I love so much and at the moment we are about to start living together and she will get pregnant in the first year of living together and I want to know how much it really cost to raise a family when you have 2-3 children in this modern age for me to plan ahead

Living together as husband and wife or boyfriend and girlfriend that you are already planning 2-3 children?

Is that a marriage?

Friend22:
Shias do not meet the requirements or should I say,the fundamentals as real main stream Muslims.

Shia and what they practice is another subject matter on it's on.

I know where you are actually driving at.

You actually the one that started driving towards that direction.

OP, since you insisted on Unilag and by the 2nd year you didn't gain admission into the school, why didn't you opt for Unilag's Distance Learning Institute (DLI) where B.Sc. Business Administration is part of the programme being offered, where you get to work and attend lectures weekends?

I know a guy who opted for Unilag's DLI by the third year as he couldn't continue wasting his time and pursued B.Sc. Economics, he finished 2018 and moved to the UK last year for postgraduate studies in Risk Management at the De Montfort University.

No one should gamble their life doing what you did, be flexible.

Friend22:
See,as far as a Muslim is concerned barrier such as region,state,country, race and ethnicity is not even there.
All those are just figment in the imagination of those who see those as identifiers as what matters.

A Muslim in the doldrums of a remote village in Tajikistan is more dear to me than a blood brother who is not a Muslim.
That's what my religion teaches me .

We Muslims all over the universe(whether in Mars,Jupiter, Saturn ,Uranus or anywhere) see ourselves as one indivisible body.
One UMMAH(COMMUNITY)!

Whatever affects a Muslim in Borno,Kano,Bombay, Chad it also affects me.


What's even my business with a proscribed group and their leader who even curses Christians from his own region.

What's even my business with non muslim Ibo?

The sectarian conflict between the Shia and Sunni Muslims is what?

sevenhundred:
does that mean the bad government is forever? We might still have good leaders. Who value human resources and know how to utilize it.

Nigeria as a country will not be forever and "might" is a word too risky to base birthing and raising such number of children on.
