The Blues are back!!

TheKingIsHere:
She actually prevented the man's mother from leaving the room

Yes.

That's why I said, depending upon the jurisdiction the incident took place, the mum could sue for damages for false imprisonment, or it could be a kidnapping charge in a criminal court.

cococandy:
Nairalanders love to hate Nigerian/American nurses
Any opportunity to bash us. smh.

You all earn twice the salary of your husbands, emasculate them and throw them out of the house, despite your husband's "training" you in nursing school

cococandy:
Lol.
1) from her agility, She can probably beat both of them up. So no one will believe that her I was beaten up story. At least I don't.

2) She's obviously disrespectful of the woman and the man too.

3) she's also a liar (from the video). She wasn't beaten in this video and she was saying she was. Umm.

4) are people assuming she's a nurse because she's wearing scrubs? Umm.

She could be a CNA or an LVN or even a caregiver at a nursing home/assisted living facility.

FrankNetter:
With videos and stories like this popping up everywhere, I doubt if I'd ever get married. I value my peace of mind. Marriage is scary.

I tell you.
These two aren't even married, and they are almost at the point of throwing punches at each other.

and for just shoplifting a bag of potatoes one might end up in prison for 150 year, in prison they make them work for free and the prison is ran by private security companies owned by the judge's brother and the judge has 40 percent shares of the company, clever innit? the more people he Send to jail the more money in the companies pocket.

Lol.
The woman must have committed her 3rd or more felony before being sentenced to 150 years imprisonment. I seriously don't think shoplifting, alone, warranted the harsh prison term.

In CA, we have the (in)famous "three-strikes" law wherein a defendant would be sentenced to a term of 25 years to life if he/she had committed a "serious/violent" felony on two previous occasions.

The judge owing 40% of a private prison is a serious conflict of interest and should possible be illegal. As you said, he would be incentivized to send more people to long prison terms cos it would result in more money for him. It's why I oppose the private prison enterprise. The government should own and run all prisons.

sukkot:
not in all states. my own brother has had kidnapping case for doing this to his ex wife. its a thin line.

https://www.columbuscriminalattorney.com/kidnapping-abduction/

Oh I see. Your state defines it as.... taking away OR imprisoning someone against their will...

sukkot:
in american laws kidnapping is defined as ' holding a person against their will '. go check american laws. this old woman was held against her will. its kidnapping

Here you go:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidnapping_in_the_United_States

There must be asportation before you call it kidnapping. Also, the Illinois kidnapping statue lists "carrying another from one place to another" as one of the elements of the crime.

sukkot:
lmao bro gypsey I am authoritatively telling you its a case of kidnapping. it happened to my brother in that same chicago. prevented his ex wife from coming out of a room. she called the police. he was charged with kidnapping. he was facing 50 years in prison. america is prison colony mayne.

Well, it depends on the particular circumstances of your brother's case. If there was asportation i.e. he carried her against her will to the room, and prevented her from exiting the room, by any means, then the local prosecutors were right in slamming a kidnapping charge on him.

But in this case, we see no evidence of the girlfriend taking or carrying the old woman to a confined place and preventing her from leaving. So, as far as we can tell, no kidnapping took place.

Whatever her boyfriend's mum did to her, the old woman doesn't deserve such treatment.

The girlfriend probably doesn't know that her boyfriend's mum could sue her for false imprisonment because she confined the woman to a bounded area with almost no means of escape.

Moreover, those who say "she is only a babymama, she doesn't have rights in the home", you all are wrong. Depending upon the jurisdiction, if two people have been co-habiting for a number of years, and each person contributes in some way to the running of the house, then they both have equal ownership rights.

So, the man can't just claim that it is his house, if they have been living together for a long time.

Cut your coat according to your size... i dont even know why i would spend millions on wedding sef.... my own opinion na introduction, Engagement and registry.... anything more than this, or her family demanding for more?? make dem carry their pikin i no marry again be that.. and they will be damned when i already don plant seed inside her womb

Some people will even borrow N2 million just to hold a wedding that lasts for a few hours. That is just insanity. I can't imagine spending my entire life savings on a wedding; that will never happen.

N500,000 wedding is possible, even in Lagos. You two do not need to rent a N1 million hall for the reception; the church premises could suffice.

As for the food, you can try to limit the guest list to under 300, so that you wouldn't have to spend much on catering.

I was shocked when people could actually fill their tanks, by themselves, at gas stations in this country. I was used to the system in Naija where the attendant puts the gas in your car.

Months after it terminated the contract for the long awaited 4th Mainland Bridge, the Lagos State Government says it will name a new investor and partner for the construction of the 38-kilometre bridge/road project before the end of this year (2017).

BusinessDay gathered that the Lagos State Government has been digging into the technical and financial capacity of the would-be new investor, to avoid the mistake of the past, which forced it to terminate the earlier contract for the project. The bridge is to be delivered through a Public Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement.

Adebowale Akinsanya, Lagos State Commissioner for Waterfront Infrastructure Development, confirmed to our correspondent on Monday, that up to 10 investors have submitted proposals and the state government is getting into the last leg of the process of unveiling a new investor/partner in the project, following the verification of their proposals and claims.

“We have received five to ten proposals and are currently studying them and verifying their claims,” Akinsanya said, adding that the proposals are a combination of local and foreign investors who are excited about the development of the life-changing infrastructure. Among the foreign would-be investors are those from Europe, South Korea, China and America.

I will deposit my salary in dat ass dis month just to make sure I folo there to somewhere.

generationz:
The woman obviously has RBF- resting bitch face
Same as Kanye West and Lola omotayo

It's a situation were your normal face looks like you are angry. if you are a girl and people always tell you smile when you think your face is in normal mode you probably have it.

Her RBF is also a result of plastic surgery she has done on her face.

ibkayee:
Yeah it isn't cheap but it also doesn't sound as 'big' as when you hear 'half a million'

True

Sabrina18:
They don't even pay OAP more than 200k, I'm sure she does extracurricular activities, she can't be this lavish if she really work hard for the money. You spend stupidly when you don't work hard for your money.

Exactly.
Yes, she's a brand ambassador, but I doubt whether she would truly splash $1,400 on a bag, with her own money. Maybe it was a gift she got from someone.

ibkayee:
Damn, naira really aint worth sh1t because once you convert it, it really isn't as expensive or as bad as 'half a million' sounds

The Naira amount comes out to $1,400 (N365:$1). That's still a lot to pay for a bag.

Partnerbiz3:
How did this girl make money abeg?

She's a brand ambassador for Ciroq, and she probably made good money from the sale of her book ...

Amazing!

A return ticket in this Business class to the US won't cost less than N2 million.

atheist5:
iniesta,bale,macherano,pepe,oblak, etc plays nothing all year and they are not snubbed while debruyne,azpilicueta,coutoius,aguero,bakayoko etc are not all there?,you see why i think fifa is very stupid?

Haba

Don't you know that these awards are merely popularity contests? If you are still in doubt, why did Messi named as the MVP at the last World Cup? Or why was he also named as the worlds best player in 2010, ahead of Sneijder or Xavi?

You see, it's always the players who are more marketable that win these awards.

When Rohr's contract is up, and he decides to leave, which Nigerian coach should take over from him?

Afam4eva:
Better. Here in Nigeria, Nigerian accent no longer sells. They mostly consider people with British and American accents. So, you can fit right in.

You just reminded me of my crush - Zainab Balogun. Her British accent melts my beautiful heart. Not forgetting Tonto Dikeh too

iekene:
With your Nigerian Accent, You might not even get a Job, you would be forced to take up the only option of returning home and working for NTA.. Don't be deceived!!

I've lost most of my Nigerian accent, but I don't think I'll even be considered for a local tv gig.

Dead on arrival. Only a competent court of law can issue such an order.

Afam4eva:
Law don tire you?

Lol. I just dey explore

Mehn, after seeing the salaries of some of these American tv personalities, I'm regretting not majoring in communications/journalism

Imagine Matt Lauer earning $25 million/year, Meflyn Kelly being paid $18 million/year, or Charissa Thompson of Fox Sports earning a $500,000 annual salary. It's crazy. Being telegenic and having huge ratings also helps.

N3,000 max subscription price is almost unbelievable, when compared to DSTV's N14,000!!

It's like this new company would either displace DSTV or force DSTV to further lower their subscription prices. Bring on the competition.

‎The simple truth is, Nigerian ladies are very selfish and stingy!

The only reason ladies keep saying that they prefer keeping male friends than female friends is because they love taking advantage of guys financially in the name of friendship without offering anything in return to the guy they call friend.

Of course, I'm not gonna ask for sex from a woman who ain't my girlfriend/fiancée/wife, so my casual female friends are just that...casual friends.

A lady will demand money, call cards, flight ticket, house rent, gifts, free lunch, free ride, etc from her male friends....she expects her male friends to help her fix her home theatre when it develops fault, help her fix fan, help her refill her cooking gas, help drive her to salon, and parties, help fix her car or take it to mechanic, and also help her secure a job but what does she offer to this her male friend Irrelevant gossip and nonsense talk that has no financial or business meaning and she expects this her male friend to be happy with her forever!

Is he your brother or father Even your father that's training you in school and sponsoring u financially expects that when u finally become financially capable tomorrow, that u will take care of him at his old age. So what does your male friends stand to benefit for helping you all through your life And u also expect them to storm your wedding day to shower u with expensive gifts for being a parasite to them all year long and then u go to your husbands house to go and deposit all the value your male friends dumped in your life and they go back home empty handed like Israelites returning from Egypt, lol...I don't blame u ladies sha, I blame some gullible sisy men lol

Nigerian women need to wake up to reality; you can't be a parasite to a man in the name of he is my friend and expect the man to be happy with u forever, not possible!

Guys wake up o, the same girl u have been helping financially, academically, career-wise, business-wise, spiritually for free in the name of "she is my friend" and she gives u nothing in return is busy offering free sex and more to one inconsequential guy that's doing nothing for her at all! In fact, the guy she sleeps with and cooks for and cleans his house and wash his clothes does nothing for her at all....he even beats her join, so Naija guys wake up!

Don't do anything free for any girl in the name of ordinary friend....if u have plenty money to give out, give your sisters, your cousins, nieces, aunts and help the less privilege in the society. 

If a girl isn't your sister, not your‎ cousin, not your niece, not your sweet mum, not your girlfriend, not your fiancée, not your wife, not your business partner, then she is nobody but a stranger...if u want to help her, help her as a stranger or a less privilege person, not as a female friend because female friends are parasites in Nigeria!!
‎
To be a good female friend to a guy, offer him some value if u don't want to offer him sex. If u can, buy him a car, help him get a good job, lend him big money to invest in his business, sometimes surprise him with worthy and useful gifts, ladies stop being parasites to men....Nigerian men are waking up! you ladies need to wake up too!

You ladies can buy your male friends car and houses na, you can do it! Do it and if he asks u for sex after u have bought him car, house or helped him secure good job, then slap the thunder out of him and report him to me for proper dealing‎

I wish I could like your post 200 times lol.

You've said it all.

I can give gifts to female friends on their birthdays, or do one or two favors for them, but I can NEVER agree to regularly foot her bills (or part of it). Like you said, I'd rather spend more on my sisters and close relatives.

And if I 'loan' a lady money, I'd expect to be paid back. After all, we are all equal, so there should be no special treatment.

komekn:
I disagree with your view, up and down the country all that Moses gets is praise, even from opponents.

From Nigerian Chelsea fans, yes he has done well. But if you check message boards of U.K. - based Chelsea fans, a lot of them wanted him to be benched.
Also, when managers of these European clubs buy a European player to compete for the same spot with a Black-African player, more than 90% of the time, the African player ends up being benched.
So, in a way, I'm happy that Don Conte eased my fear.
