the story is of mischief, a man won't just ask of your financial status if you aren't contributing anything to the family. perhaps you are the type that just lurk around without contributing any dime yet you are working, my elder sister and husband were lecturers they divide their finances, the woman takes care of feeding, the man takes care of rent and fees. it seems your money is not going anywhere in your family.

my advice for you is never reveal your salary pay to your husband but rather share in responsibility, that way he won't have to complain and the burden on his shoulders will reduce.

If we go by not disclosing salary info then they are just (responsibility) partners and not married couples. How do marries survives on so many secrets? Go to the banks and see so many dormant accounts that the dead owners kept as secrets from their families. At the end it becomes banks' money.

... I made a mistake of commenting on this thread... Never checked to see the wife is igbo........ All their ladies are rather after money than love... That's y drams in that side of the world in marriages are unending......

Nonsense lady! GOD forbid!

You need to check yourself well. How many Igbo people have you met one on one?

How do you daily share a bed and your body with someone you can't trust with your finances? Is your money worth more than your body? Both of you are heading for a very bumpy ride if you keep hiding your finances from each other. How exactly will both of you plan as a family if you dont know how much both of you have?

Seizing your ATM is a first stage of crises escalation, if you dont resolves these 'secrets' you might not have a marriage in the near future. Both of you might just be co-habiting and bearing children.

Go to school if you can, if you can't establish yourself in Business and start a part-time school. There is no standard formula for success in life.

It shows how the govt will be helpless if serious civil unrest starts in Nigeria, Police will be helpless.

Imagine same Lai Mohammed that tore Jonathan apart with insults and criticism.

I know a book titled "Talent is not enough". There is a business side of entertainment, it's not enough to know how to sing same applies to footballers. Record labels are business people and profit is their aim not your well being except if your well being will bring more profit. Everyone must be selfish when signing a contract.

These whole inter state ban is a waste of time. People are moving freely as long as they can pay police dues.

Rwanda is landlocked and many other countries landlocked and are far far far better than Nigeria

Nigeria that is not landlocked, how market?


How some of u really love this country beats my imagination. A country that cant feed her citizens for more than two weeks with packages less than 30 dollars after years of selling oil.

You can also add Botswana one of the best run African countries today is landlocked

This only shows the level of media propaganda the Igbos suffered when we had only the mainstream media. Some properly fabricated lies were passed from generation to another and now deemed to be the truth about Igbos because there was no way to debunk them till now.

Experts that can't provide corona virus cure. Is there any drug without side effect even the Chloroquine?

It takes a govt that has absolute trust in it's local product to willing give it as a gift to another country. We can't say same of Nigerian govt.

All the Nairaland historians will be quiet now but tomorrow they will come to tell you how there are no Igbos in Delta State.

No matter how long lies travel, truth will catch up. I hope the Ikwere champions are listening.

I still posit that refusal to teach history in our schools is akin to perpetuating the believe in western world that Africans had no history before the arrival of the British. The Nigerian govt is doing so much injustice to the unborn generation. It's nothing short of creative destruction.

We were taught in government classes that British indirect rule failed in Igboland, partially succeeded in the west but a huge success in the North. None of them was explicit enough to tell us why it failed in the East. Maybe these and more were the reasons. I never heard of this resistance.

Double post

Wow. This ban of teaching of history in schools is deliberate instrument of war. I heard of this report in govt classes but never for once did they mention things like this. Thanks OP.

The govt and haters used main stream media to drive home their propaganda against the Igbos after the war. Thanks to social media.

Why does Buhari love to close borders?

Tanks. Roughly how much did u spend.

About 50k for Visa

iamloyalty:
Please I want to know abt their immigration process, I have a seminar to attend and goggle hasn't been helpful. Should I send a pm?

Everything was seemless both going and coming back. I got their one month Visa in less than a week from their Embassy at Abuja.

Shame on you Malami. Who among those prosecuted by EFCC did you refer to their stolen wealth as asset? If it's an asset then Abacha's family can sue you for taking their family's "asset".

Imagine if these states tackled this Almajiri issue this way long ago. If they have sense they should know this is a golden opportunity to end it once and for all.

Wetin concern TVC with lockdown?

SLAP44:
I need explanation, are the CBN and bankers committee now doing the work of managing the bank which I thought were business establishments capable of making and enforcing their own decisions as they deem fit in order to remain in business.

Why then are the CBN interfering with the decision, if these banks experience distress because of the insistence the regulatory bodies, who will bear the consequences?

It's part of their regulatory functions. Even before now no bank can open or close a branch without CBN's approval.

This is a good news by the way.

demsy21:
We are in Africa, therefore the reality of the old continent should be captured. Not all this ''A" for"Apple" rethorics . Does apple normally grow in your hometown? I guess no.
Don't let the west dictate how you are to teach even though standard education came from them. Tell your own story, be original.

I never saw apple let alone eat it until I was 15, so I agree with you. The book targets the society and the class of pupils in question, I see nothing wrong with it.

If the hand is for washing what's wrong with the head being for carrying?

Most people who argue here haven't provided a better answer for the use of the head that's relatable to a child in primary 1 or 2.

This explains why these days private schools give children home work that only the parents can solve because they want to form high standard.

The elites of Kano are dieing off, Ganduje why??

Who remembers this Corona officially entered Kano same day it entered Anambra?

Even at old age Buhari wants to bequeath nepotism to the younger generation.

I only blame those that believed in 2015 that an 80year old man will change his behavior overnight.

sweetsell:
And some fools claim Peter Obi that never built a single bridge through out his pathetic 8 years performed beta than Obiano.

To the fools that claim Peter Obi saved money how much does it cost to build the kind of bridges Obiano as built in Anambra today ? I know this will be the third have seen how many did Peter Obi built or would have built with the money he claimed to saved. Note the news of the squirkie voiced Peter Obi as been debunked not once not twice.

This your lie doesn't have option 2. This is a continuation of the work Obi started. Peter Obi did Umueze-Anam to Mmiata while Obiano is taking it from Mmiata to Nzam. Both of them have done very well for Anambra West. Each section of the road has a bridges too.

Hunger have been in Nigeria for a long time, it never started now, is surprising we are all shouting hunger hunger hunger , like it started today....

Let them go out, guess what, ur senator, ur governors, won't step their feet outside,.

That mechanic will still die of covid19 why ur leaders bury them.

Difficult times call for difficult measures....

Lockdown is good but it should be a short term solution and not till infinity especially when Nigeria is not making it's own effort in finding a vaccine. You can't completely lockdown your citizens without a palliative and keep waiting for whenever the West finds you a vaccine.
What has the govt given to be a condition to ease the lockdown? none so we dont even know what to hope for. Is it till the last person is cured or vaccine is found?.

They are waiting for the West to profer a solution and we copy and paste in Nigeria. If a public safety measure has no human face it becomes wickedness to the poor.

martowskin1:
When they start burying their parents and children, they will fear covid19, all an average Nigerian think about is his stomach and nothing else....

They should lift the lock down, after 2months bod ho tell every body....

Let's not be elitist. Imagine the mechanic, the vulcanizer, the bus driver, the traders stop for a minute and ask yourself how do these people survive? No one is supporting recklessness at this time but as much as you want us to be safe from Covid-19, also make plan to keep them safe from hunger virus, both kill equally.

Nwaelohim:
When the situation gets worse will you also take responsibility? This Abia state Man that want to make himself popular for talking, how far have you impacted Abia state, how many state has facilities to admit at least 1000 COVID-19 patients except Lagos State. Those supporting your opinion now will abuse Buhari when things get worse. Wailers and hailers has one thing in common. To mislead you. Is not within your power to advise opening of the country. The NCDC chairman and the task force for COVID-19 will advice base on facts and recommend precautions. Not emotional senator that did nothing to support people on lockdown.

So how many of your neighbours have you bothered to check how they are surviving this period. It's easy to push for a lockdown when you are comfortable at home. A hungry and angry Nigerian does not fear Covid-19, he needs food to think straight.
In the absence of any palliative, continuing the lockdown becomes criminal.

My love for Soludo keeps hitting the roof. Any business man currently surviving the lockdown is eating his capital, how will he re-start his business if the lockdown persist or vaccine found? At some point the lockdown will be lifted but the damage done might be irredeemable, why not limit the damage now?

How long more shall we stay at home when even 1 case left untreated can still infect the whole population again. Should we remain at home till the last person is treated?

How do you intend to lockdown a hungry striven population for months and "hope" everyone will survive?

Let those who can stay at home and those who need to survive resume work.
