The fights are not real one bit. They are scripted and only made to look real, although there might be cases of the wrestlers getting injured, most of the injuries are faked. When Dean Ambrose was attacked by Seth Rollins and he was said to be out for some weeks, Ambrose actually went to complete a movie he was taking part in. The same thing applies to Randy Orton. When he was attacked by the same Rollins, Orton only took out time to attend to some things under the guise of career threatening injury.

The month of Sha'ban is the eighth month of the Islamic lunar calendar.
The fifteenth night of this month is known as laylatul-bara’ah (the Night
of Innocence) or laylat un-nisfe min Sha?ban (the Middle Night of Sha?
ban) in the Arab world. In India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iran, Afghanistan,
etc., it is known as shab-e-barat . Some people believe that in surat Ad-
Dukhan (44:3-4) there is a reference to this night as Allah says, ( We
sent it (the Qur’an) down during a blessed night. We are truly Warners.
In that night is made distinct every affair of wisdom. ) But the
night referred to here cannot be a Sha?ban night because it is said here
clearly that the Qur’an was revealed in this night. We know from the
surat Al-Qadr (97) that the Qur’an was revealed in the Night of Qadr and
we also know from the Qur’an (Al-Baqarah 2:185) that the Qur’an was
revealed in the month of Ramadan. So it is obvious that the night of the
revelation of the Qur’an was in Ramadan, not Sha?ban, and that it was
laylat ul-qadr (the Night of Power) not shab-e-barat .
Some people also say that in the 2nd year of Hijrah, the direction of
the Qiblah was changed from Jerusalem to the Ka?bah in Makkah on the
15th day of Sha?ban. This report is also not confirmed by authentic
hadiths. According to most of the exegetes, the Qur’an has not
mentioned anything about the Sha?ban night.
There are some hadiths that speak about the Middle of Sha?ban and its
night. However, the scholars of hadith say that most of the hadiths
concerning this night are not authentic. They are weak ( da?if ) according
to the criteria of the narrators and scholars of Hadith. Imam Al-Mundhiri
(died in 656 A.H.) in his famous book At-Targhib wat-Tarhib (vol. 2, pp.
116-120) reported fourteen hadiths on the subject of this night. The
following points can be summarized from those hadiths:
1. The month of Sha?ban is a great month.
2. In this month Allah takes the account of His creation.
3. Because this month occurs between two other important months, viz.
Rajab and Ramadan, many people do not pay enough attention to it.
4. The Prophet (peace be upon him) loved to fast during this month. He
used to fast most of the month of Sha?ban.
5. After sunset on the night of Middle of Sha?ban, Allah in His great
mercy and kindness turns towards His creation and asks, "Is there
anyone who would seek My forgiveness and I forgive him (or her)? Is
there anyone who is in need to ask Me and I provide for his (or her)
needs. Is there anyone who is in pain and seeks My help and I help him
(or her)? Is there…? Is there…?” until the time of Dawn."
6. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is said to have
recommended prayers during this night and fasting during the
following day.
7. It reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used
to visit the Muslim cemetery on this evening and he used to pray for
the deceased Muslims.
These are the things that we learn from some hadiths about
the significance of this night. However, there are many practices and
customs common in some Muslim countries, such as making a sweet
dish, setting off fireworks, etc. These things have no meaning and no
reference in hadiths. There are also some superstitious beliefs about this
night. For example, some people believe that the spirits of the deceased
visit their relatives during this night. Some believe that there is a special
tree in Heaven upon whose leaves are the names of all human beings,
and whatever leaves drop during this night, those people are destined to
die in this year. Some think that the decisions about the life and death of
people are made during this night. All these beliefs and superstitions do
not belong to the authentic teachings of the Qur’an and Sunnah.
We must try to follow the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah of the
blessed Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). It is our duty as
Muslims to take advantage of all good occasions to revive our faith, to
purify our souls, and to increase our love and devotion to Allah (glory be
to Him), but we must follow the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and
blessings be upon him). We must not do anything in our celebrations
that is against his teachings.

Moloso:
yea u are right... but do not forget it only 4years he will do in office

What I meant was that Yar Adua would have stayed till 2015 while another President from the South will also spend eight years (2023) before power goes back to the North and when Buhari will have the chance to contest again.

People usually say every disappointment is a blessing, but some people never really believe it. Yar Adua's death was a big loss
to the North and Nigeria as a whole. But it has turned a blessing for General Muhammadu Buhari. If Yar Adua did not die, he would have wanted to spend eight years in power and after his tenure, power would shift to the South again. With that GMB would not have had any opportunity to contest again, except he can wait till 2023 by which he would have been too old to contest again.
This is a big lesson to all. Every disappointment that you experience will surely turn out to be a blessing.

2015 General Election: A
Harvest Of Firsts
Tony Egbulefu

The 2015 general elections have come
and gone, but the trail-blazing records
that came with it have earned their
rightful places in the annals of the
nation’s political history. Tony Egbulefu
writes
First time a sitting president tasted
defeat
Since 1959 when Sir James Robertson,
the last colonial governor-general of
Nigeria, organised the 1959
independence election, in which the
Northern Peoples Congress, (NPC)
candidate, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa
was elected prime minister, all other
general elections, conducted in the
country by civilians, has seen an
incumbent national leader in the contest
or at least his party, as it was the case
in 2007, when an out-going President
Olusegun Obasanjo of the PDP, had the
late President Umaru Yar’Adua to
deliver in the presidential election as his
successor. As prime minister, Balewa
stood in the first post-independence
general election of 1964, and had a re-
election on his NPC platform. In the
Second Republic, President Shehu
Shagari in 1983, retained the presidency
he won on the platform of National Party
of Nigeria, (NPN) in the 1979 general
election, midwifed by Obasanjo as
military head of state. In 2003, Obasanjo
on his part retained the presidency he
won on the platform of the PDP in 1999.
The incumbent President Jonathan was
elected for a first term in 2011.With his
loss in the March 28 presidential
election to Gen. Muhammadu Buhari,
Jonathan goes down as the first
Nigerian president to be defeated in a
general election, but more palatable is
also the record he set as the first
presidential contestant on the platform
of any political party in Nigeria since
independence to accept defeat and
congratulate his conqueror.
second term jinx broken in Oyo State
Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State on
April 11 broke the 36 year old second
term jinx in the state that began with the
late Bola Ige, the first civilian governor
of the state. Despite the popularity of the
Obafemi Awolowo-led Unity Party of
Nigeria, (NPN) in the state and South-
West region in the Second Republic, Ige
who was elected governor on the party’s
platform in 1979, and had a good
measure of popularity among his people
lost his re-election bid in 1983 to Victor
Omololu Oluloyo of National Party of
Nigeria, (NPN). Since the days of Ige,
eight other democratically elected
governors have held forte in the state,
including Ajumobi, who was first elected
in 2011 on the platform of the Action
Congress of Nigeria, (ACN). Though the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP ruled the
state for an unbroken eight years, from
2003 to May 29, 2011, governance of the
state within this stretch by the party did
not spring from a successful re-election
bid, rather, it swung between Rashid
Ladoja and Christopher Alao Akala, both
of whom were then in the same PDP.
Not even the late Governor Lam Adesina,
whose Alliance for Democracy, (AD) also
had the type of infectious appeal UPN
had in the state could pull off a
successful second term bid in the state.
Adesina, who was elected in 1999, lost
to Ladoja in 2003. The Oyo State one
tenure trend shattered with the last
governorship election as Ajimobi, who
sought re-election on All Progressives
Congress, (APC) platform coasted home
to victory against the run of history in
the state.
First political alignment between the
South-West and the North
The first political alliances in Nigeria’s
political history started right away with
the First Republic, when the South-West
based Action Group, AG, led by Awolowo
teamed up with Nnamdi Azikiwe- led
National Council of Nigerian Citizens,
(NCNC), and the Joseph Tarka-led
United Middle-Belt Congress, (UMBC)
and Aminu Kano’s Northern Elements
Progressive Union, (NEPU) to form a
coalition, called United Progressives
Grand Alliance, (UPGA) against Sir
Ahmadu Bello-led Northern Peoples
Congress, NPC, which held power at the
centre with Balewa as prime minister.
The NPC responded with a coalition with
Samuel Akintola’s National Democratic
Party of the Western Region, (NDPWR),
which was a fringe player in the AG
dominated Western Region, and Harold
Dappa Biriye’s Niger Delta Congress,
(NDC) to birth the Nigerian National
Alliance, (NNA). The alliance of
Akintola’s NDPWR with northern NPC in
the 1965 Western Region election ignited
resentment and anger among the
Yorubas, and eventually led to the 1965
widespread “Wild Wild West” riots of the
Yorubas against Akintola and anybody
that had to do with his party, or the NNA
alliance.
Political parties also congregated in the
Second Republic against Shagari’s NPN,
birthing the Progressives Parties
Alliance, (PPA), made up of Azikiwe’s
Nigerian Peoples Party, (NPP), and
Aminu Kano’s Peoples Redemption
Party, PRP. The NPP and (PRP) with
time, bizarrely became inclined towards
the NPN they assembled to battle and
indeed worked out a desperate power
sharing agreement with the NPN. The
South-West Unity Party of Nigeria,
remained aloof and resolute not to dine
with the North’s NPC.
It was not until February 6, 2013 that a
South-West regional party, ACN, fused
with Muhammadu Buhari’s Congress for
Progressive Change, CPC and the All
Nigerians Peoples Party, A(NPP), both
of which had huge northern appeal to
form the All Progressives Congress,
APC. The coming together of Yoruba
leaders on ACN platform and Hausa-
Fulani political figures from CPC, ANPP
and the PDP, for the 2015 general
election, proved to be the first political
marriage between the South-West and
the North in the nation’s political history.
It is equally instructive that the 2015
general election saw the shattering of
the traditional voting alliance between
the South-South and the North, both of
which are traditional political allies and
known to vote along same party lines
since 1964. While the North went for the
APC this time, the South-South stuck
with the PDP.
Nigeria’s First Experiment With PVCs
And Card Readers
The first national electoral body was the
British-established Electoral Commission
of Nigeria ECN, which conducted the
1959 independence general election, won
by the NPC, but hugely tarnished by
allegations of rigging against the
colonial masters in favour of the NPC by
the other political parties. Issues of
malpractice against the succeeding
Federal Electoral Commission, FEC,
created by Balewa, and which conducted
the 1964 general election and 1965
Western Region House election in were
even more pronounced as FEC was seen
to be beholden to Balewa and his NPC,
and as such freely awarded it victories.
Reaching down to the 2011 general
elections, all national electoral bodies in
the country, even the pre-independence
ECN, colonial masters created are all
vastly wracked by allegations of
conducting incredible elections. In trying
to get it right, the Independent National
Electoral Commission, led by Prof.
Attahiru Jega came up with the
application of Permanent Voters’ Card,
PVC, against the fraud-infested
temporary voters’ card or incident
forms. The PVCs are digitally enabled
for voters’ data authentication by a
unique hand-held card reading
machines. These two novelties, fraud-
proof as they were billed, were deployed
in the country for the first time in the
2015 general election voting processes
and electoral administration. And for
INEC and many Nigerians, they made a
whole lot of positive differences.
PDP tastes opposition, first time at the
centre
Since the return of democracy in the
country in 1999, the PDP has held power
at the centre, totaling 16 years on the
trot. In the legislative arm, the party has
also been manifestly dominant, gaining
outright majorities in both the Senate
and the House of Representatives, and
producing the legislature’s presiding
officers, since the very first blast of the
whistle. The 2015 general elections
brought an all-round reversal of fortunes
to the party. It lost power in the
executive arm, and lost control of the
two legislative chambers. The party,
severally characterized as a behemoth,
and the largest political party in the
African Continent has been gripped by
the icy hands of opposition politics with
the 2015 general election. At 226 APC
House members to 126 PDP members,
the latter can even hardly offer a virile
opposition in the House. In the Senate, it
is 48 against 61 in favour of the APC.
Aside its losses at the executive and
legislative arms, the PDP also yielded
its traditional control of the majority of
the states to the rival APC. The APC
garnered 22 states, leaving the PDP,
miserably with eight.
A female governorship candidate
almost struck the bull’s eye.
For the first time in the annals of politics
in the country, Nigeria came to inches
away from embracing the arrival of the
very first female governor to emerge
from the polls. Senator Aisha Alhassan
of the APC ran shoulder-to-shoulder
with Darius Ishaku of the PDP in the
April 11 governorship poll in Taraba
State until the proceedings became
stalemated, leading to supplementary
election in 10 out of the 16 local
government areas of the state on April
25. Though Alhassan finally lost by a
close margin to the PDP male contender,
she has in her kitty with the election, the
record of being the first female
governorship flag-bearer, and one that
left even pundits unsure of what will be
the poll outcome.

socrateez:
Its ok for you to visit them once in a while, and when you do, no discussions about your family.
I assume that its because of love for you as a son in law that they like to see you so often not that they intend to put pressure on you for anything. Probably your wife has been very close to the parents and they're trying to adjust to the fact that she's no longer around.
So long as there's no problem with them, you don't have to worry. You can make some of your visits very brief, no need to sit down just tell them you're just passing through. Gradually, they will adjust.

Thanks. Really appreciate

Thanks. I do that once in a while.

Hello House. I got married about six months ago, and since then till now I have visited my in-laws about two times. We stay in the same locality, I.e in the same town, but they want me to visit them more often. It's not because I should do so for me to give them anything or they giving me something, or that I have any issues with my wife. I am not that an outgoing person and I work Monday to Friday, sometimes even on Saturdays. Please advise me family experts in the House what I should or should not do. Please, mature advice only.

The 4th one is called ' bo le k'aja ' in Yoruba. It means 'come down and let's fight'.

South Africa closes Nigerian consulate
2015-04-21 20:31
Johannesburg - South Africa has closed its
consulate in Lagos, following anti-xenophobia
protests, Netwerk24 reported.
Protests were held outside the consulate and
at the South African High Commission in
Abuja.
South African consul general in Nigeria, Sam
Monaisa, said in an e-mail to the South
African business forum that the closure would
remain in force until Thursday.
The situation in Durban had calmed down, but
he was concerned about Nigerians that were
being repatriated, he wrote.
Many Nigerians were using social media to
blow an already tense situation in South Africa
out of proportion and stoking emotions.
This was why many maintained that their
compatriots were being killed in South Africa
daily, he said.
He warned the forum's members to stay alert
and not move around unnecessarily. South
African businesses and citizens became
targets of threats and acts of retaliation
whenever xenophobic attacks occurred in
South Africa, he cautioned.
Meanwhile, in Zimbabwe 15 people who were
part of a first group of Zimbabweans returning
home in the wake of xenophobic attacks in
Durban have "disappeared" in Musina, state
media reported Tuesday.
The official Herald said in an online update:
"Fifteen victims disappeared in Musina where
they reportedly claimed feeling safe because
there were no xenophobic attacks reported."
There were no further details.
Zimbabwe is repatriating up to 2 000 of its
citizens who have asked to be evacuated in
the wake of the attacks.
The first six buses carrying 407 Zimbabweans
left Durban on Sunday.
