glory on: For example you will see a policeman frustrating an "okada man" for unintentionally break traffic rules. In this regard,I can't see what makes the level 3 police officer better than the okada man. The okada man might even be earning more than him in the longrun. I think that the policeman should be more "mean" to the rich guys who I think can "afford" to bribe him comfortably.. Do you now get ?
hmm// o get what u r saying

its about power and who can flaunt it...

the rich have more of it by the way

You are saying you don't know the fada of the area boys in lagos

E go soon be 2015

They are already out in force..

See d way vio and lastma dey extort

Ok.. If you feel it's not a bashing thread..



kulyie: 'jagaban of africa' is not his mentor,even if he is his mentor,he is JUST A POLITICAL MENTOR AND NOTHING MORE. For example,it is possible for an intelligent man who is a smoker to be mu mentor.however,i will only pick the good traits in him and leave the bad.meanwhile i dont think it is degenrating into a 'male bashing thread',its just calling mem back home and reminding them of their roles and responsibilities and also to leave awon oni idi gigans,alaye bibajes who have nothing more to offer more than their slack vagynas alone and come home,simple!

glory on: @pickabeau. What I meant is that an "upper class " is willing to help another "upper class" which is not the case with a "lower class" . They hardly help each other.
Well until we know where you are coming or what your agenda is.... i will be watching

However in my experience, it is actually the less privileged that help each other

Dog-eat-Dog-ism is found in the upper strata of society

kulyie: he is dear,if you can just read between the lines.the summary of all he is saying is that many of the time,african fathers are not always there for their sons and they need to be more emotionally and socially bonded to their sons.moreover fatherhood goes beyond financial support.


i think he is just trying to encourage the fathers in the house to live up to their responsibilities as a wa of supporting the society to reduce crime,afterall charity begins from home and no child was born a criminal.its years of fatherly neglect,training,support,love,advice and encouragement that makes kids go haywire.just see beyond all the insults and you will realise he has tangible points.good evening guys.
Are these problems unique to the african fadas too.... if u want to us to better standards of fatherhood.. then write a normal epistle without being specific to a tribe or race

evening also

[quote author=soul_glo]What difference would it make? If it is the truth it matters not who says it[/quote]i dont know.. it matters.. each person's perception is their reality

if one have always had models of bad parenting around him or her; one assumes all blacks are bad parents or make bad fathers

loretta still stereotyping....

lorretta u: Most black men find it hard to emotionally connect with their wives and children.
They believe if I provide I'm good
And the thing is that they don't even do it often and when they do,na so so complain.
Dating And Meet-up Zone › Re: Step-mothers Cursing Out Thread! by pickabeau1: 7:49pm On Oct 06, 2013
lorretta u: Yea right

Cos if your wife has a child from another man,you'd be so warm and lovey dovey towards them.right?
Mtchew.

If my man is dumb enough to get kids outside.they should expect no motherly love from me.I'm not their mother.I'm not a magician,I can't manufacture love for them.the most I can do is treat them as human beings.anything more than that,they'd be stretching it.
u are mixing two things up... so if the mum is late.. u will still maltreat them cos they are not urs

what do u mean by treating them as human beings,.... humans beings dont deserve love?

Guys dont you think he had a unique opportunity to set the pace for reforms in the aviation industry

The same problems still bedevil the sector - poor regulation, adherence to maintenance, high cost of operations, poor infrastructure,

its unthinkable that the south west has only one airpot labelled international with a pop of 25m

It makes no sense

If anenih dies in a road accident will it be karma?

Noted.. and these issues are only peculiar to blacks and nigerians specifically


In the US the leading issue among adolescents is obseity

Even the first lady had to co-opt beyonce into her obesity campaign

Be the change you want to see
Learn about us before you start mouthing off
He does not know anything about us


Ngokafor: ..like improving relationships with their sons..or you want to tell me ALL fathers do that?

..exercise more to stay fit..with pot bellies and ill-health occasioned by poor diet and lack of exercise flying all over the place.

Family › Re: Are You Externalizing Your Problems? by pickabeau1: 6:06pm On Oct 06, 2013
True dat..

But please let me not derail you from your general principlw which is sound

Your post does not identify how to take individual responssibility

esere826: Its not bad at all, but I think the guy should fully appreciate that he or she is externalizing her problem to the owner of the car.
The owner of the car will for example have to do some extra cleaning, and depending on the number of people that are being carried regularly
the car maintenance cost might increase

Are you naija or AA


[quote author=soul_glo]Not true. I know there are many responsible African fathers out there but in my opinion the same fight that African women have fought to keep marriages even to the point of being one of multiple wives is the same fight they fought to keep the fathers in their children's lives. Look at most polygamous families as reference. When things are hard it is "that wives" children. The wives have to fight for what their children deserve with the other wives. At the end of the day the man does not feel the brunt of the decision to marry multiple wives. The children feel that brunt. It would be worse for them if their mothers left. Especially in families where there is simply no money to cater for one household. No different from baby daddies.[/quote]
