Hebert too was young. I don’t think he reach 50 years of age?

herbert should be 56 0r 58

you should thank your stars that you met her, go to elders in your village and ask for certain prayers and offerings you need to make to fully maximize the potentials that your relationship with her offers. put everything on the table from the beginning to let her know where you're going and try as much as possible to faithful to your own conscience.

don't let anyone use religious jingoism or crass naivety to confuse, if your stars align and she is truly what she claims and she loves you, you have everything to gain if you are not the lazy type.

Note: they can be overtly jealous, stubborn and protective, that's why you need to wisely and maturely handle every situation that arises between you.

cheers!!!

will divide the land into six portions for easy accountability, one portion will be for animal Husbandry where I will raise goats, chickens, cows, sheep, ram, snails and fish if there's a flowing river nearby. one portion will be for planting cereals like corn, millet, wheat etc. one portion will be for plantain and banana farming, one portion for yam, potatoes and cassava farming, one portion for palm oil farming, last portion will be split to plant things like pineapple, oranges, mango, watermelon, melon, cucumber, pepper, tomatoes onions etc. and a small part of the land will be used to build food processing factory so that the farm can be an end to end production house.

i wish i can love your comment one million times.
if people pay attention to details just as you have pointed out, we should all bury our heads in shame rather than applauding a 4th place finish.
Note: I am not condemning the athletes themselves, for everything they have been able to achieve thus far is by personal effort which the Nigerian nation still manages to frustrate every step along the way, for I can imagine the psychological impact the disqualification of ten of their colleagues would had on them.

Shame suppose catch Una

Africans and Nigerians in particular are shameless

Nearly cannot kill a bird

Nigeria at Tokyo Olympics 0-0-0

Bermuda island at Tokyo Olympics 1-0-1

Bermuda a tiny poor island nation sent only 2 athletes to Tokyo Olympics

They won 1 Gold, 1 bronze

You with your shameless 200million people yet just less than 30 reps at the Olympics still nothing to show for it, even one bronze you haven't seen its noise you are good at making, shame suppose to make you keep quiet but no shame so you keep making noise anyhow.

if you love your children and yourself, the best time to send her away is now. if you make the mistake of getting her pregnant, you might live with regrets for the rest of your life. plus even though I don't know her story quite well, but I have seen enough situations to know that her husband didn't abandon her as she claimed. you will soon know the truth, but let's hope it is not too late then.

family6644:
I need serious advise from experienced nairalanders, please forgive my lengthy message because it requires detailed explanations.

I lost my wife exactly 3 months ago, 4 years of relationship and 13 years of marriage with her before she passed on, she left behind 3kids, 13yr old girl 7yr and 3yr old boys. I understand marriages are full of their challenges but we have been through the journey and we came out victorious having a loving and happy home, a union other partners appreciates.

My late wife was so organized and we trainned my kids to be independent while she travels on local business trips. So I just needed to continue our family habit of buying and stocking everything at home while they manage themselves with the help of an older maid who has been part of the family for many years, in short, we are faring quite well as I continue to mourn my wife and carry on with life.

Here is the problem, from a lot of condolence messages coming in on my Facebook, I had the chance to reply some of them 2weeks ago, I met this single mother of two who invited my kids to her daughter's birthday party, i was reluctant but she said it is time to start taking the kids out since they are yet to resume school, exactly what they needed at that point was the usual outing which has been missing for a while since their mother's sickness and after her demise, approx 6months in total. She said it's not a loud party that she needed only my kids for the small sitting room party.

I decided, went to the party with the kids, it was fun for the kids, I have not seen them happy like that in a long while, it made me happy too, they fell in love with the two sisters and their mother all like a miracle, my little 3year old boy started calling her mommy, others follow and it all seem like a family reunion. We left late at night with her girls asking that they meet again the next day which was a Sunday. To cut it short, my kids and hers agreed to meet the next day except for me. To be honest, the lady is a nice and lovely person to be with, she's a realtor who can work from home, she's real and beautiful, she has been a single mother for 4yrs after her husband travelled out and abandoned them to marry another woman, that's according to her.

She called me that her kids could not allow her rest, they said if we can't come, she should bring them to our house, I mildly rejected but i was persuaded by my daughter and my first son to have them around, I could see that they have bonded quite well, I want my kids to be happy too, that's what I have always wanted for them so I agreed and gave them our address. To cut the story short, I find it impossible to separate the two families that has come together to become one, when they were leaving back to their house my kids pleaded with me to allow them go with mommy to her house, I understand that is real because she's lovely with kids. I had the confidence to trust my kids with someone for the first time in my life. They didn't want to come back, I had to go and pick them up the next day, all of them made sure they came back home with me, we started living together as a family and everyone was enjoying it.

It became an automatic affair with her, I was worried about it been too early, I had to involve few of my friends to seek opinions, some were happy that i could get a good mother for my kids this soon, others asked me to stop the family union and give it a little time to study her character. I suggested some space but she felt very bad, she thinks I am sending them away. I had to allow them stay while I use the opportunity to observe the new found love and family.

12days after, I realize that in a bid to reorganize me and help me to move ahead in life, she totally disregards anything that concerns my late wife whom I still hold dear to my heart, same as my daughter and my adopted daughter, I don't like to address her as a maid. We loved and cherished my late wife, everything she introduced seems to be strange to the norms of the family. If I try to raise my concerns for her to adjust, she will simply tell me that the dead is dead and I should just forget everything about her including whatever she stood for as a mother and wife.

If I try to talk some senses into her to make her understand that brooding over the dead is different from honouring and respecting the deseased, she gets really angry claiming I am comparing her with a dead person. Whatever she discovers as our way of doing things in the family she disregards it and replaces it with her own way without minding how we feel as a family or how easy or difficult it is for us to adjust.

It looks like we are the only ones tolerating and accommodating them here, I have tried with no avail to stop her from insulting the memory of my late wife. I discussed with each and everyone at home, they all wish I could perform a miracle to have them leave because no one can tolerate the mother and kids anymore, I am equally fed up myself and willing to take a break.

I have a friend who is aware of my problems with her, he told me that I am the problem here, he said it will be hard for any woman to fit into our family way of doing things and it will be difficult for us to cope with a different way of life introduced by another woman.

I hope I can get one or two advices that could help. I am quite confused

The Nigerian army rebutal shows that they are smart by half, is it true that the north east got a total of 61 recruit instead of 50 if we are to go by the analysis of 8 candidate per states and the extra 2 added to the other geo political zone. note that there are six states in the northeast.

is it also through that the northwest got 64 candidates instead of 58 that they are entitled to based on the analysis in the rebuttal because there are seven states in the northwest and 7*8=56+2=58.

all of you rushing to hail the rebuttal without asking further questions need to refund your parents your school fees.

either present or not, his mother-in-law has no right to do anything concerning his child without his express permission.

to the guy, you are the one that knows where the shoe pinches in your relationship, but you have to consider several factors before making your final decision, in the meantime, you can ignore everyone and be alone to clear your head and know what you want to do next. childs naming can be done anytime you feel you're ready, just let them know that they can't give name your child as anything they do in that regards is a waste of their time.

I, like many people here may not understand exactly how you feel because scenarios will always be different, but having been in and survived a suffocating relationship, I will only say do what is best for your sanity and be truthful to yourself when answering the questions as to why you don't want her anymore. But above all know that time and patience resolves a lot of things, don't loose a diamond while picking up stones.

chatinent:
You wanted to divorce her because of her mother. Her own mother!


You have been looking for a credible reason to cling unto for the break up.



Now, you see this as a stronghold, hence you deploy traditional rites.


Whatever happened to “for better for worse.”


It is a detestable thing to me reading comments from men who feel are always right in relationships. Have you taken a break and reasoned things from her angle?

You weren't present on the day of delivery due to some personal reasons of yours, fine. Why the rules over the placenta?

Ok, I understand the rites. They should keep the placenta for you till the month you decide to reconcile with your wife?


Which family in disunity will allow the husband's people to come and boss around in the time of delivery when the husband himself didn't show up?


How do you expect a woman to hate her mother because of you!


Even if there are things you don't like, set things straight amicably; you are only a husband not a god!

You are a mere man feeling principled. Release the twist.


Sorry, I don't mince words.

a lot of people are blaming the lady without understanding her plight. she is 40 now, meaning she was married off at 15, deprived of proper childhood and teenage experiences. now she's a full blown woman who just wants to assert herself, it's not just about the money and don't be quick to use your Nigerian poverty stricken to judge her, there might not be any side cock anywhere, every human being desire and deserved to be free

it is shocking to see Nigerians who come online everyday to talk about Yorexit, Biafrexit etc which is simply a demand for freedom from a forced marriage coming here to judge without thinking deeply.

ON THOSE WHO MARCHED FOR LAYCON IN THE NAME OF OGUN YOUTHS

It shows how senseless we've become as a nation and as an organization. And to think this is happening in my state makes it doubly disgusting. When custom officers were killing innocent youths, secondary and primary school pupils at the border towns between Ogun/benin Republic did Ogun Youth March?
When herdsmen are rampaging and killing our people in parts of Imeko, Ogun/Oyo borders around mamu, ogere, Oru Ago Iwoye axis and rather than face the issue some power brokers were even suppressing it from making the news, did Ogun Youth march?

When police officers in the name of SARS /Efcc were marauding our streets and cutting short the life's of young and promising innocent talent, did Ogun Youth march?

When Ogun Youth were representing at cowbellpedia or when they were manufacturing Covid test kits at FPI, OOU and some other places did Ogun Youth March to drum support for them?

We are shamelessly bereft of ideas, that's why we can be proud of this nonsense when youths in Egypt are currently marching for good governance. The youths in Mali saw to the end of a non performing government.

And don't dare say you can also organise your own March for what you believe if you are not comfortable with this one. Check my records out, some of which are here on zuckerville, I have always been organizing, leading, joining and supporting marches for a better Nigeria consistently in the last 20years.

Who cursed us?

By Oluayan1

With this write up, bro Femi has shown that he is the worse mediocre ass licking praise singer out there and a forgetful one at that.

He forgot to mention that 70% or more of all the projects he mentioned were approved during the previous administration with Nigeria having fully paid their counterpart funds for many of the projects that were JV before the last administration handed over to them and they just took delivery of the already paid for materials when they came in.

I don't have time to respond in detail to such an egbon who was once a beacon of excellence that some of us used to look up to, only to sell his integrity for a pot of porridge.

If e sure for them that they're doing well, why are they not holding press conferences and allow real journalists and not those they've given brown envelope to to grill their government from time to time, why are they trying to gag the media under the guise of NBC code?

A country and its value system

It is no longer news that the founder of facebook visited Nigeria yesterday. As expected, every tweets, instagram feeds and of course facebook post was all about this young, gifted but humble man who though is about same age with me, but has achieved and touched more lives positively than I can ever imagine to touch in a life time (though i know there is room for overtaking). But in this brief peace, though i know I can't exhaust all the ways Mark Zuckerberg challenged our value system as a people, but I will touch on the few one's that quickly comes to mind.

1. Mode of entry: he came in silently (like the biblical thief in the night) without much fanfare and noise, that I am tempted (a) to believe he doesn't trust the Nigerian security apparatus to give him adequate protection and therefore believes the best bet is for him to sneak in and before any kidnapper or other person who might have ulterior harmful plans towards him could strategize, he would have been long gone. (b) he was raised with a value system that understands that (in alhaji Alabi Pasuma's word "ariwo ko ni music) noise is not music. Compared to some Nigerian bloggers who just because they have about 2million participants on their platform will not allow us to rest with silly and unnecessary information just because they want to come from Lagos to Abuja and even sometimes from Lagos island to mainland.

2. Mode of dressing: it is not new to see a yahoo boy who just swindled someone of $500 to be dressed in dog chain, sagging his trouser (showing of a dirty boxer short ), thinking he has arrived having spent all the money on clothes and fake bling bling with an unkempt dreadlocks. But here is a man worth $54billion, yet dressed in something not up to $500 (he's not even wearing a wristwatch). (a) apart from yahoo boys, you also see some banks and so call fortune 500 companies whose total asset is not up to $10billion and the will be using dressing, age, ethno-religious affiliations etc. instead of content of the applicants head, to judge during recruitment exercise. No wonder many companies have lost the service of geniuses they ought to have employed and have settled for average performers who knows how to dress or speak to impress (I am putting this one in because all my classmates who are first class students are not good dressers and I habe observed them ober time that they perform better when they dress simple than when they dress to impress)

3. Mode of meeting people: while a Nigerian local government chairman or governor (just because he has managed to acquire $50million through fraudulent means) will be disturbing our peace with siren when passing by our neighborhood, just to get our attention. This $54billion dollar clean money trekked the streets of Yaba, Lagos without heavy police escort, and met everyday people doing what they know how to do best at CC HUB, ANDELA Nigeria and a few other places.

There are many other things to consider, in his coming to the most populous black nation on earth (at least we know his visit is not a charity case visit, its a visit to explore the brimming technology potential that is written all over the walls of the country, but our clueless leaders couldn't see. And instead of investing in it are asking our youths to go back to farm. (N.B. non of the top 20 economically vibrant countries in the world is an agrarian economy, but thats a talk for another day)).

The difference i see between Mark Zuckerberg and all that I have compared him with is the value system of the environment where they grew up. Nobody will give you preferential treatment in most western countries because you're a rich man, neither do they have time to be drooling at your feet, because higher percentage of them too are gainfully employed and so don't have time for nonsense, reversed is the case here. The value system here taught many of us that except you show off, you won't be accepted, that's why you see many young couples go into heavy debts just to put up a show stopping wedding, and also some borrow to by aso ebi while neglecting children school fees. The value system here don't care where and how you got the sudden wealth, all they want is, jusy get the money. That's why Nigerian youths will come online to celebrate thiefs who are bleeding the economy dry because of their ethnic or religious affiliations to such thiefs.

If we must see the radical and progressive change we desire to see in Nigeria the first place to start from is a change in our value system. We must stop honouring a thief or a tyrant because we share the same ethnic or religious affiliations. We must learn to call a thief a thief and a tyrant a tyrant instead of celebrating their shenanigans. We must begin to let our conscience instead of our sentiments to guide us when addressing personal or national issue. Until we start re orientating ourselves on the positive values we must hold dear, values such as hardwork, probity, accountability, meritocracy, dignity of Labour etc we are going nowhere as a nation, I rest my case for now.
