No matter what.. there is no justification for assaulting someone who is helping you do omugwo for your wife

coogar: cöck & bull story....
you did nothing at all, this enraged, brutish, flesh-eating brother in law just came from nowhere & started beating you for no reason. i would have joined them in beating you too if i were there.

Answer in bolded red..

Because another guy is ready to do anything to enter that punny once you offload it


That thing has destroyed kingdoms grin grin


[quote author=Noble.G]Women nowadays claim to want to be treated equal. Equal pay, equal opportunity, they are independent, they don't need men to take care of them, etc... I agree with them wholeheartedly.

However, when push comes to shove, women expect men to do the heavy lifting and they uphold the double standards that benefit them. They want meals paid for, dates paid for, bills paid for, vacations/trips paid for, gifts, etc... They want doors opened, they always want the man to treat them like queens. I could go on and on.

Then if a guy is foolish enough to do all this crap for women, the women won't have the decency to say thank you or appreciate it. They just expect it and feel entitled to be treated like something special (like they have some sort of gold or diamond or magic va-gi-na).

I just want to know what makes a female have this sense of entitlement?[/quote]

A married man speaking,... dont mind these juves talking on things they kniw little to nothing about

drnoel: Listen to ursef, do u want him 2 beat her? If he can't beat her like the child she is, then he has to protest one way or anoda. I met a thread on facebook where one man went on booty strike, gave his wife sharia cos he was angry with her.


Ho2 right u are but sometimes a woman needs 2 hear it more than once. The more u tell her the more it sinks in2 her head abi.


Funny enof, women issue more threats than men but who am I 2 say so. Let me jut do like I didnt see this one b4 my wife sees it and begins trouble at home.


Now this is childish and agree but I see more women doing this than men. Men only report if he has told her over and over and she is being stubborn about it.


This one will not be my portion or portion of anyone I sabi

kolajoo: I feel so touched and concerned when i came across this thread and i feel like crying sad. I would have support as well but the said fund has been covered, thanks to those that helped financially and morally. I think Seun should create a new section for "Help/Donation" cause there are lot of people out there struggling from such thing and let us be our brother's keeper.
Nice idea.. something like a kickstarter concept and thus requires a framework to prevent abuse

Not easy to implement here in naija tho but a nice idea

I have thought again on this issue becasue you may not want to get police involved...

She will bribe the police and still get the child kidney

get an orphanage involved (SOS ISolo so she can continue her schooling) or if u need a househelp or know someone who is in need, get the girl out

What if the one kidney gets bad in a years time

Women!

Fawklicant: My brother recently gave his phone to a very broke azz colleague at work who had been asked to resign. She lost hers that day, so he gave her one of his with the sim card in it so she could be reachable when their boss called her for her payoff. She was supposed to use the phone for a few days and return it, but after weeks had passed, he kept calling her only for her to insult him and tell him that he was disturbing her. A while later, she simply bought another sim and replaced hers. She didnt even bother to retrieve her old line as she didnt want to be reached any longer. I blamed him for not smashing the pums though he is married. He didnt even think along that line at all as he just rendered help to someone in need. Now his wife is asking questions about the phone and despite his explanation (including calling the said colleague and routing it on speaker phone) the wife is still suspicious though she pretended as if the matter is over, but trust women to bring up the issue one day one day!

High-flying banker called Crazy Miss Cokehead by bullying colleagues wins millions after sexual harassment at Russian firm's London office




A high-flying banker nicknamed ‘Crazy Miss Cokehead’ during a smear campaign by male colleagues has won an employment tribunal after claiming she faced sexual harassment.
Cambridge graduate Svetlana Lokhova worked in the London office of Russian firm Sberbank and said she had been subjected to victimisation before being unfairly dismissed.
Last night it was unclear how much the 32-year-old can expect in compensation, but it was believed she was planning to claim as much as £5million.
The tribunal heard that colleagues referred to her as ‘mad Svetlana’ and told her to visit Nigeria for sex with tribesmen to ‘calm her down’.
Other phrases male co-workers used to describe her included ‘crazy’, ‘mental’, ‘totally unstable’, ‘quite likely clinically bonkers’ and a ‘MAJOR car crash’.
Miss Lokhova claimed she had been targeted because she had previously reported a senior trader for insider dealing. He was later dismissed.
The tribunal also ruled that her main tormentor should have been fired from the bank for gross misconduct.
David Longmuir, Miss Lokhova’s former manager at Sberbank CIB (UK) Ltd, not only sent a host of emails but also made remarks behind her back that were ‘offensive and derogatory and often personal in nature’.
He referred to Miss Lokhova as ‘Miss Bonkers’, said she had ‘unfortunate natural brain chemistry’ and described the daughter of a Russian shipping magnate as ‘living in a flat that Daddy bought’.

Mr Longmuir told the tribunal he regretted making some comments but claimed Miss Lokhova had insulted him. He has since reportedly left the bank by ‘mutual consent’.
The tribunal rejected 19 of the 22 complaints made by Miss Lokhova but found in her favour on the substantive areas of harassment and intimidation on the grounds of her gender.


Miss Lokhova made her allegations after a second term of working at Sberbank’s London office in 2011, when she was earning a six-figure salary alongside a guaranteed annual bonus of £200,000.
However, in January 2012 she went on leave because of stress, claiming there was a ‘hostile environment’ on the male-dominated equity sales desk.
On the day she resigned senior analyst Mikhail Stiskin said in an email to a colleague that Miss Lokhova should visit Nigeria.
He wrote that he ‘knew a few tribe leaders in Nigeria … proper alpha male … she needs to relax after the stressful period of the past months. These guys would help’.

obadiah777: brah ? just give the man the ten percent and move on. you both work in the same place so it is good for your rest of mind and your friendship. and lets face it without him you would have 100 percent of nothing. so if you give him ten percent you still have 90 percent of something right ? ninety percent of something is better than 100 percent of nothing right ? do the right thing and mend your friendship. wink
Are u actually advocating kickbacks because he helped his friend with a job,,

I will not speak for TeHN ort a charity group but in a personal capacity ....

I appreciate theissues but the first thing is to get yourself back on track mentally

Whatever help you get will not be optimised if you still have a suicidal mindset

Then the next major issue is verification of your claim

Then upon that, people will be less skeptical of who you are

Christianity Etc › Re: The Deception Of Malachi 3:10-11 "Devourer" And "Storehouse" EXPOSED by pickabeau1: 7:00am On Nov 05, 2013
Image123: i do not believe any christian should have an inordinate ambition to gather material possession. i do not know of this crave and clamour that you speak. We are talking about tithes and offerings and its biblical relationship. We do not support abuse of anything too, whether tithes or offerings or prayers or deliverance or baptism or whatever. Do you believe this scripture below?
Luke 18:27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.
I find it strange that u r unaware of the thirst for fame n material wealth seen among Christians eespecially the clergy
The old missionaries built hospitals n schools to better communities as part of social justice

The new clergy are building profit making enterprises

She may be ungrateful true...

She may not...
Others have raised thier nephews and nieces as theirs


The main issue is that she will not be asking for fish

@bigheart... I feel at this point you have to internalise your charitable acts
Focus on your self, start saving again.. give yourself a target to get married maybe in 2 years time

Put ur monies in CDs that you cannot touch based on mandate... make that down payment on a home to restore the one you sold ... when u have built enuff... marry and focus on your kids...

Then give as u can try....no more

I watch it too on Lifetime my fav channel. Such a nice show and my sunday evening is not complete without watching it. I'm waiting for the next season. I really like how those Latino maids do their thing, they teach you a lesson. But we can't compare Lifetime Devious Maids who are mostly adult to Nigerian baby maids.
