lest I forget,Happy birthday General Buhari
Thank you for leading an exemplary life.For leaving a good legacy that we still have a few good men worth emulating.
I wish you many more years and I pray God gives you your hearts desires in accordance to his will.

playmode: If Buhari is a honorable man then i am Santa Claus. Let me quote another nairalander joseph1832 :

I've taken time to identify some reasons why 'we' Nigerians are the root cause of our problems.....


These traits are the major reasons why Nigerians are really the root cause of Nigerias many problems, because they reside in each and everyone of us, to some its much and to others its little, if we can put our negative attitude aside and do what is expected of us, I believe Nigeria be on the same level with many developed countries.


The above describes what this thread is all about.

The general is the exact opposite of all you highlited.Take a lesson in nigeria's history,dont be lazy.I find it appalling that some refuse in the presence of such irrefutable facts to acknowledge an incoruptible man when they see one,and yes they exist and the General is a good example.
That is what this thread is about,that we remember and we acknowledge his dedication to his nation,above self.

For been good

@ OP its happened,dont flog yourself.Apologize not because u dont feel hurt,do so because its the right thing to do,and the first step to making it all right.Do it in front of her son,leave after for work,(give them both time to talk without you)come in later and have a talk about how it made you feel with your husband,Plan the way forward.
Use this incidence to set boundaries and discuss expectations also to really appraise yourself on how to be better.Trust me for those casting stones none of them are better.We are all a work in process,and lifes experiences are to make us better,not break us.
Lastly,Get a book on emotional intelligence,you obviously need guiadance on dealing with such emotions in future.Wish youthe best.

Let's be objective about this matter,its said children are like arrows that speak for you at the door,the lady felt genuinely slighted,pastor poju did not leave the matter to his followers,he apologized regardless of the true story and bad press,An example of the character of a true humble leader that he is.
To all who may read this,I join to make a case for the convenant christian center,where in addition to christian values and Godly character,concepts like hardwork,loyalty(to God, family employers and fellow men)social responsibility,comunity development are taught and held in esteem.

This incidence is clearly a misunderstanding blown out of proportion.

Some people go to church grieving,red eyes swollen ,with tears,they may wear shades,for others its the bright lights from the camera units they avoid.Every one has their reasons,whatever it may be,do not judge a man till you have walked in his shoes.

Happy birthday sir! May you live to see the Nigeria of your dreams.You inspire me to hope and believe that day will come.E pe fun wa.Amen

It is said science has proven a known plant in africa and the amazon cures cancer in the lab at least 8-10 times faster than any known anticancer drug.problem is in excessive dosses causes parkinsons.So who defines the safe dose.

Most medical drugs are from herbs.the difference is a lot of research has gone into ensuring the side effects and doses to ensure they are safe.for every medical drug administered all possible effects and doses can be defended,thats why companies spend millions of dollars on research.

so someone by the roadside or some unknown company offers u unverified herbs to cure all.....and you buy for yourself and ur child?
I'll say "choose ur poison",but choose wisely.

My 2 cents,the ,OP said "better Companion".He may have a valid point,think about it,how many lower class girls had the luxury,time,family emphasis placed on social development.

unlike the upper middle class above where Hobbies like vast travel,extensive reading,golf,swimming,polo,ballet,horseback riding,"plays an instrument",social outings,charity groups,volunteer work etc are imbibed in them from childhood as opposed to the "lower class" girl whose sole aim was survival and entertainment would be neighbourhood gossip and tv if lucky.

transpose that to their late twenties and guess who makes the better companion.
That been said,what counts is character.the entertaining upper class girl may just lack character. so If you find a loyal,kind,intelligent loving lower class girl,then make her the companion of your dream.

One of the posts that makes been on nairaland so worth it.Nice one.
