The Governor refused to clear all outstanding salaries even as he has been given 20bn bailout. The lecturers are insisting on getting the one month salary out of the 5 months, which 4 months has been cleared.


3 months today!

No results for graduated students for NYSC mobilisation.

By- Promise Emmanuel- Live from Lokoja

The Students are in mixed moods of jubilation and frustration as placards and other forms of protest images are swung left, right and about in the ongoing stydents protests at Kogi State capital, Lokoja. Many other students are joining up. Aluta songs are in flaring decibels.

Few minutes ago, The Commissioner of Police, Yakubu Usman. SSG to the Governor, Mrs. Folashade Ayoade and Commissioner for Education J.S Tolorunleke just left the scene of protests as students remained avid in their request of meeting only the state Governor, Yahaya Bello.

We also just got wind of ASUU' delegates being on their way to Lokoja. According to the Student Union Government President' Comrade Philip Omepa, the invitation was to show clearly that Students are not protesting against anybody or taking sides as what they want for both parties to return to negotiation table.

The Public Relations Officer of SUG, Comrade Cosmos Ogiri, lamented the missed signals the protest might be sending, he however assured all watchers that the SUG only wants the school to be settled for academic activities. He said "anybody that would think we haven't been patient for 3 good months doesn't have a conscience. What do we have to do? Just what?!", he lamented.

A student at the site of protest, Enema Ilemona also lent his opinion on the issue, he remarked "This is the first time in my life I think we have an SUG. The fact is that both Government and ASUU have their own facts and points, but what is our own point?", he said.

Another demonstrator said "It's high time Lecturers and Government realise that we are not immovable objects. They've been tossing us up and down to side with them with their persuasive positions. We are tired, we can't side anybody. Government has tried, ASUU too have tried. We only want to resume and graduate", he said.

At the time of filing this report, the demonstration is relatively peaceful as law enforcement agents are also present to monitor the situation. However, nothing has been heard from the Governor as Lokoja goes into flame of different mix of Aluta songs.

Update at 3.42pm:


The State Government, ASUU Representatives and Students Union Excos are currently in a meeting at the Lugard House, Lokoja.

The demonstration is yielding fruits.

Politics / Did Aisha Buhari Make Her June 30th Visit To America? by pinkrex(m): 8:06am On Jul 04, 2016
Snippets of news confirmed that the First Lady, Mrs. Aisha Buhari recently donated 30million naira to parents of Kidnapped Chibok Girls.

While I don't even know what to believe anymore about that Chibok scandal, I would like to ask Nairalanders if she eventually made her World Women Summit to America on June 30th as reported by the Presidency. The visit was supposed to ameliorate Ayo Fayose' attack on her person, fingering her on Jefferson Case and Haliburton Scandal, which he said made American ban her for life from travelling to the country.

Even though as it was widely agreed by some persons that she can travel with a diplomatic ticket. Can we see pictures of the so called June 30th Summit?


This is not about APC/PDP. It's about conspiracy and too many scandals. Please anyone with media reports, detailing pictures of her in that Summit should please post.

Politics / Ben Bruce Is Not A Corrupt Politician by pinkrex(m): 7:57am On Jun 24, 2016
Ben Murray Bruce Must Be a Clean Man:

With consternation and deep surprise I monitored how many timelines on social media were masturbating and many tongues ululated yesterday in a jubilating manner, when AMCON took possession of the business assets of Ben Murray Bruce and family.

If you ask how much he owed, he owed according to AMCON 11BN, in a country like Nigeria as a politician and business man. This is rare, and I will explain why soon.

Murray is an entrepreneur, an employer of labour who is also a technocrat. Like every business man, sometimes you'll have to borrow to meet your expansion obligations. Neither has it ever been written that it is illegal to owe. Many businesses owe and certain reasons may make them run into bad debts, Ben and family not exempted.

What actually caught my interest is how some Nigerians rejoiced at AMCON taking over another man's business. Someone who others, more than (1000) would also lose their jobs as they shut him down. Something that will further haemorrhage the job sector. Infact, those screaming more and sharing pictures and court papers of this unfortunate event, do it with brazen ecstasy, mocking him with invectives as "so the tweetnator also owes". And you're pushed to question the level of their humanity and even sanity.

Everything, including loss of human lives has been politicised in this country. Unfortunate successive leadership in this country has divided the psyche of Nigerians to be "we" against "them", so misfortunes are celebrated, depending on which side you fall. It is that bad.

Some persons may disagree that the government is not closing in on those that are critical of this administration, however, check the trend of those suffering political and business misfortunes in recent time- opposition- one wonders if they're the only ones in this cesspit of corruption and business failure in Nigeria.

Suffice to say that for Senator Ben Bruce to owe 11BN in Nigeria as a politician is a miracle and further affirms him of not being a badly corrupt man. In this country, one politician can single handedly loot 45BN without bating an eye lid. In this same country, we hear politicians receive up to 4.5BN for spiritual purposes. But Ben could not have funded his loans through stealing. Infact, the famous Dasuki loot couldn't be traced to himself and family, so in the face of harsh economic conditions, low sales and patronage for the nature of his business, the senseless government still moved in to seize his assets while more jobs are lost.

I eulogise him today for breaking into Nigeria with a foreign touch of entertainment business model. This sterling entrepreneur has been into business for 35years in Nigeria, knowing that he isn't into oil and gas, telecom or the banking sector which is like blood-money in Nigeria. He succeeded by staying put to create jobs here in Nigeria and not some other parts of Africa like some big business men in Nigeria. In this part of the world, it is hard to succeed in business with dinning in corruption, a reason business mogul, Strive Meyisiwa (Econet group) moved out of Nigeria. But Ben stayed put, with innovative techniques, he revolutionarised the entertainment by been the first to break grounds in Cinemas in Nigeria. This paved way for further exploitation of indigenous movies. Infact, for those who understand red carpet and showbiz in Nigeria, it is a trajedy for them.

When we see the monopoly enjoyed by people like Africa's richest man, Aliko Dangote, we can wonder sometimes if he came about all those things without governmental policies favouring him, tax rebates, loans and ecetera. The goal was for him to succeed. After all, he was a political business man. Through the political school of thought of Clientelism, he funded the election of different administration and was rewarded through their prebendalism.

The monopoly enjoyed the bourdillon king is another example.

I'm elated on several grounds and that I shall share:

1) That a politcian-entrepreneur has his business going down for 11bn in a country where lootocracy is the operational constitution.

2) That bad debt is the only "kwurruption" found with him. Infact, an economy with purchasing power can make any business fail. Angels won't patronise from heaven

3) That he has not been tainted with corruption

4) That a Niger-deltan dint benefit from kidnapping struggles and oil wells, along with juicy contracts from the last administration

5)That he would bounce back as many politicians would see this misfortune as a rallying point to put him up against the rampant cluelessness going on.

Mr. Ben Murray Bruce, it is on record that even Obafami Awolowo failed in business during the great recession in the 1930s in business that he had to auction everything, down to his clothes but he came back stronger to be the pride of the South West and a Nigerian real Statesman.

It will also shock you that those jubilating at this man's misfortunes are either chronic debtors struggling to survive in this harsh economic conditions, illiterates who wait on government for jobs, those who are blind followers, haters, those living on loans and the confused common man who propaganda has sank deep.

11BN debt? Ben Bruce must be clean.

Literature / The Ghost-worker Aristol, A Short Prose By- Promise by pinkrex(m): 6:39pm On Jun 11, 2016
The Ghost-Worker Aristol

Isn't it a national tragedy that the only collateral you have in living a comfortable life are your big boobs, curves, spotless face, smooth skin, brazilian wig (s) and contacts of pot-bellied men and young marauding boys who are ready to debase you into a sexual commodity?

It is painful that your life is actually dormant. You post pictures of your private embodiments online and physically, you convince your low self esteem that your internal deficit can be nutrient via exorbitant materialistic appearance. Even when you truly know that you live a faux life, you convince yourself with the shambolic and fading momentary gains that follows your lack of respect for yourself.

You make a photo collage of pictures hueing hotel rooms, shopping centres, different estates, political and highbrow social gathering in order to convince your low-self-esteem that you're actually better than those who aren't traders in your trade. Infact, for everyday you go out, you make a picture of your wears to intimidate your mirror self and encourage your low self esteem.

You award yourself a title of "big girl" to cover your chronic lowself esteem and poverty mentality. Yes, poverty mentality I said, you know why? Life is not easy, only those who fight genuinely overcome that poverty, you who took the easier way by exploiting your natural commodity do it because of poverty mentality, because there was never a struggle, only a jungle of immorality and sexual rascality.

How can you even feel special? Why? You're a ghost worker in the field of life, you use your easier way to milk from the hard work of married women, genuine hard working ladies, sisters and brothers of those you sell your wares to. You're a sexual and social thief. A home breaker. An economic saboteur. A low life and the lowest slide in the cadre of feminine virtuousness, NO! I meant virusness, because you share that one too from one man to another.

How can you call yourself a big girl for affording the expensive things of life by trading your punany? Why should you feel special when you have commercialise that space to escape your lowself esteem?

...and then, constantly, you ply highways every weekend to different towns looking for buyers. You constantly put your life at risk and the happiness of your parents at risk. Those poor parents, praying that you will make a fine woman but you make yourself a fine harlot.

You create a following by making the vulnerable ones feel you're a big girl, they want to be big girls too, so they want to be like you. As you understand their vulnerability, you recruit them to join you in order to boost your low-self-confidence. ..and you make low other persons.

You're weak, internally empty, internally poor even though outwardly expensive. Even those men you ride on their donis price you as a commodity. Infact, you're a potential ritual animal to increase their fortunes.

This same you, who have pillaged the moral valley would dare want your spoils of war to be: Good marriage, wealth, God-fearing boyfriend and husband who won't cheat on you, many children after marriage, family love and even to be the President's wife.

You're a selfish being, carlous at its best because you would have deprived others who have worked for it genuinely, scheming your way as usual to be there.

But there's a simple judgement for you. . An empty end awaits you.

You're a ghost worker of success.

Here are the true feminine heroes:

The OK goods sellers, the true Make-up artists, the educated feminists, the female bloggers, teachers and hawkers. The female bankers, lecturers, Judges and the virtuous illiterate women out there. You're all my heroes, you have a class. You're the real workers while those ghost workers steal from you. You're all the big girls!

But there is a simple judgement for you... A full and lasting end when you breakthrough. Continous happiness without guilt. Then ofcourse, you must have tapped your internal esteem to affirm that you're human and a woman.

Wada has been vindicated. He did all he could in spite of the refusal by buhari to release bailout to him to manage the lecturers and all workers salary. He eve went to The extent of borrowing from bank to pay salaries yet kogi people cursed him and called him unprintable names. Now buhari first son bello is in the saddle. Buhari has released all the billions to him, 50 billion bailout, 10 billion infrastructure fund,15 billion refund. Bello has received in just 5 months more than what wada received in a year yet he has refused to pay salaries. He is embarking on mass retrenchment and has even sacked the assembly so nobody can question him. Only God can save kogi now

Mehn..you're a serious liar. See how you distorted financial facts. Please how can you backup all these?


Wada can never be vindicated. What did he do? The truth is that, it was during his tenure that those salaries accumulated. My grouse with Bello is not to have paid those who have been cleared by the screening committee. Why didn't he priotise that of the lecturers as well?

Don't politicise KSU strike, you and I know that no tangible thing has happened in Kogi State after the tenure of Prince Abubakar Audu. imagine a state with a secondary school in a Commentary with Roughly 50 staff but can only be found on paper but not on ground. So dead bodies too attend schools? I am in support of the clean up exercise in all sectors before the salary back log are paid. O.P, if I may asked, has there been any developments in KSU after Prince Audu tenure? KSU was created the same year with AAUA but in term of standard, KSU has dropped drastically from it's best position to know where? let the clean up continue until then, no salary for anybody. My parents are affected so I am also affected, so let Yahaya Bello Clean up the State from the mess of Captain Wada & Ibrahim Idris.

You've clearly missed the point. Are the lecturers still being screened? No! Why haven't they been paid?

Why can't be priotise payment of the lecturers' backlog and ever other person who haa scaled through screening?

Nobody is asking him to stop the civil service clean up, but you can't throw the baby and the bath water. Are you in support of the lecturers leaving in droves?


If he wants to complete the screening first.. has he communicated that? What is the timeline?


Think again. I cant antagonise that man, I like him but we need to help him succeed.

You see that you have myopically tribalized it? Isn't the strike affecting both Igala and Ebira students, including the lecturers?

Lets learn to think without tribalism.

Yahaya Bello, APC Vs Kogi State University Lecturers & Students:

Im just curiously wondering why some of us are keeping quiet even with the nonsensical ongoing industrial action by ASUU, Kogi State University chapter (ksu), even when when the govt. is incommunicado about what she has decided to do.

What has changed, really? I rooted for Yahaya Bello' because of Wada' helpless cluelessness. Now, it seems de ja vu is taking a turn on us.

First, they told us the state was broke due to irregular or reduced monthly allocation from the FG. We were advised to pray and hope on bailout fund which would be used to clear all salary debts immediately.

They said screening would be conducted, that of the lecturers have been long completed.

The incumbent Governor announced that he received the bailout on the 18th of May, 2016.

I would like to ask? Why are we not talking even in the face of no explanation? Why are those who called Wada unprintable names now cowing in quiet?

With one ear, I heard the Governor even said the strike was politicised by the Kogi State University VC to witch-hunt his administration because he is Ebira, relaxing on the logic that Wada was an Igala man and the Igala VC never went on strike with his lecturers when he was in power, forgetting that the same VC has been providing soft loans for the lecturers to cushion the effect of the inconsistent menstrual pain called salary.

It is also on record that the Students Union Government (SUG), in recent weeks embarked on many Ajala visits to the Glass House in attempts to pacify the Governor to roll the salary backlogs, however many described those efforts as fruitless as no exact person can give an informed position on when the lecturers would be paid.

The warts in my heart is to learn daily that Kogi State University, which was the best State citadel of knowledge during the FS Idachaba' VC regime, and the dream of many lecturers in other institutions has in recent time witnessed brain drain. Informal quarters have placed the number of lecturers in massive exodus from the university to other institutions to be above fourty (40).

A student of the institution, Mr, Ali Abbah also reported earlier that the Governor had dissolved the School's Governing Council, which without that, results cannot be approved for NYSC mobilisation for graduated students.

It is also worthy to note that under this Yahaya Bello' regime, no one seems to know what anyone is about to do. For every sensitive administration, communication between government and the governed is key to the success of that administration.

It is painful that students should be the grass of any elephant and government war. We cannot take this anymore. Our future is been held hostage to what we don't even understand.

Please, as a concerned Kogite, I don't care who becomes the governor, if he likes, he can be an Igbo man, but let him provide us quality leadership. It is insensitive for the state governor not to give priority to what drives the excellence of his state (Education).

The painful pill to swallow is to know that 20BN bailout fund is now at the coffers of thestate government and she is yet to anything while the institution' lecturers seek greener pastures elsewhere.

It seems anything APC is now actually insensitive to the plight of those she governs. They have subjected the fate of the students to political expediency. Enough is enough! Something has to be done this week or they'll be massive revolt from the students.

Please share this post until His Excellency, Gov. Yahaya Bello and his Media team sees this to explain what is going on. We are tired of speculations.

See, the themes addressed in this long epistle are actually very true to a large extent. Even though I don't agree with every line, I think men in Nigeria need to upgrade their matrimonial intelligence. From the whole saga, you'd agree with me that it was a case of marital immaturity on both sides. Imagine a complicated couple like 2face and his wife amidst his baby mamas holding it together. But see young Tiwa and Bills?

Celebrities / The Omawunmi Outburst, Nigerians- Victor Ibeh by pinkrex(m): 8:14am On May 09, 2016
Omawumi comes across as a Decent wife and Mother; a typical Nigerian Virtuous woman that can make a Suicidal Man develop interest in life.
She presents to us the image of a woman that can manage family life and career effectively; especially in the eyes of Men who are difficult to please by their own wives. This however, isn't totally to her advantage, as We the Nigerian people are fond of placing people on a certain pedestal of perfection with zero tolerance for their inadequacies. The thing about being presented as perfect in Nigeria is that You might find it difficult farting. After all you are a model. How can you even fart?
Omawumi was just basking in the euphoria created in her favour, until an interviewer decided to cut short her celebration. So Omawumi walked into that interview session as a mortal, but her host had other plans for her.
Having made reference to musical growth and achievements, something just had to be said to spark up controversy. It has to be a Nigerian interview. So madam is it true that your manager is the father of your child?
Omawumi did well to keep her cool and denied. There is something about a clear conscience and the way it works. Antty dem talk say you dey smoke, how you take dey manage am?
Antty flared!
That was it.
She lost it right there.
Have you seen me smoking?
And then she walked out.
she was too conscious about the public opinion that she didn't think for a second that the public was going to talk about the way she let her temper flare.
A person can not totally transcend the influence of his/her immediate society.
Society has a way of influencing us all.
Nigerians are Judgmental and very defensive. We judge people a lot. It is for this that hypocrisy thrives. Nobody wants to be the sacrificial lamb for criticism. Its in us. Since we all possess that trait of being judgmental, we become defensive when people pry into our personal failings. We know what we do to others when they fail, so we become defensive when the ball falls in our court. This is exactly what Omawumi displayed. Was she expecting the interviewer to pat her back and say Ezigbo Nwanyi mara mma and then the interview will be over?
When the issue of paternity was raised, she dismissed it calmly as a rumour. Why didn't she dismiss the second one? Why get worked up? What was she trying to protect? Pet sins are sins we fight so hard to protect. Smoking and drinking are her private issues. She answered the first question, which I even consider more harmful and then took the second question personal.
Just like saying, Victor are you crazy? I am not crazy. Simple. No point taking it personal. Nobody is out to tarnish her image. She almost tarnished it with her lack of professionalism.
She allowed the Nigerian factor to disable her reasoning. Who really cares?
There is so much suffering in Nigeria. That is why rumour and gossip sells fast. People have to find relief through something. She should have understand that simple situation.
Extreme self consciousness has a way of making you see things that are not there. If she had paused for second, she would have realised that we really don't care. Male singers smoke and drink and we still buy their music. Their foreign counterparts do same and we still listen to them. I don't know how bad Eminem is when it comes to smoking but I love listening to him. You know why? His music is separate from him. Forget our hypocrisy in this country. If you keep looking at Nigerians and their lies and Judgmental nature you won't amount to any meaningful thing. You have to learn to ignore certain things, especially when you know that they are part of us. Maheeda shows boobs and vagina and we condemn her openly, but still addicted to any site where her nudes can be viewed.
Do you know how many Nigerian men that masturbate with her nudes? Nicky minaj, Kim kardashian and their likes. Do you know how many that watch porn?
Wisdom is when you understand the society you live in and decide that it won't run you mad.
Omawumi was not thinking along these lines. It is her private life.
She should have just denied it, accepted , or just say that it is her private life and it really doesn't concern the public. It is like asking her if she enjoys giving her husband a BJ; ofcourse that is also personal. Nobody will beat her up. She is not a pastor. Nigerian Men and Women consume alcohol. We never saw her as our pastor. Even a pastor is human. Btw! Smoking and drinking isn't a weakness. It is because she already saw it as a weakness based on what society says. In Nigeria, a Woman that was raped and had a child becomes scared of admitting that she is a single mother for fear of what people would. Damn what people would say abeg.
To further buttress my point, Christian Oyakhilome had a marital issue that bothered around divorce, infidelity and neglect. We expected him to tell us if he was guilty of adultery or not, instead he began to give long sermons. He became defensive and began to tell us things like: being a pastor's wife doesn't mean you are called to ministry', I didn't start my ministry with my wife', I already set my sail and she joined me'. Bros just tell us in clear terms. Did you commit adultery?
He didn't answer. I was disappointed in him. Israel Houghton the gospel singer sometime ago came out of the closet and told us that he has been living in adultery. That is it. No need to be defensive, except you are from Nigeria, where you have to sustain the illusion of righteousness.
My personal thought is that Omawumi smokes and drinks but is afraid of what people would say about it. what she doesn't know is that we really don't care. We just talk about anything until something else comes up and the previous issue becomes history.
So dear omawumi, you had no reason to throw tantrums.
Whether you smoke and drink or not, we love you as you are.

naijaboiy:
Who is this inglorious ass licker?

Matter that has already been done and dusted, almost swept under the carpet completely, now this one is coming with one useless epistle.

If he wants to insult Nigerian men he should do it directly, not hiding under the umbrella of Tiwa and teebillz marital problems.


Why I wouldn't engage you is because I've seen you seek desperate attention by spiting someone on their post before. A response from someone due to your savagery also revealed that you're/were Mr. Nairaland or something. When I got that air, I felt you could use a bit of diplomacy and polished appearance. Kindly check when I joined Nairaland, we aren't Nairamates. The way some of you also talk to others here is why some of us withdrew into our shell. Perhaps, we Nigerians don't learn anything. We have a recycling brain. Only an irresponsible man would feel insulted by this post.

My expectation (s) of you or anyone is to see the sense in the post. This is not from any blog to draw attention.

Romance / Matrimonial Intelligence:tiwa &billz In Focus -victor Ibeh by pinkrex(m): 7:57am On May 09, 2016
I looked at Tiwa and Teeblizz and saw how wrong it is to be a woman in Nigeria and worst still, to end up with an average Nigerian man in unholy matrimony. If I was a woman, I know how difficult it would have been for me to marry a Nigerian man. Tiwa savage became wrong the moment she was birthed as a woman in Nigeria and very wrong when she decided to salvage a man who is irredeemably lost. How on earth can you save a man who has chosen the paths of destruction. All her efforts to validate her name in his life by salvaging him has proven futile.
You see, to be a married Nigerian Woman, you have to work twice as any other woman for your marriage to work. The Matrimonial Institution is dead on arrival for as long as our men keep being groomed with an entitlement mentality rather than the requisite qualities of a Husband. Have you ever seen a bicycle?
It has two wheels. That is how marriage is. The two wheels must function properly for the marriage to succeed. Insanity is when you are doing everything by your words and action, that is detrimental to the success of your marriage and then you expect your partner to single-handedly make it work. You are the loudest joke of the century.
I have been trying to understand why Teeblizz chose to mess up Tiwa's life and purpose. I have said it that not all men are husbandable. Marriage desperation has made a lot of our women to end up with men who shouldn't have crossed the acquaintancezone in their lives. Who do we hold responsible? Shebi when the desirable is unavailable, the available becomes the desirable.
So Tee blizz ran out like a man chased by 4000 demons sent by his village people and began to rant on social media. Let me tell you something.
Patriarchy has a way of running people mad. Just see how he was making incoherent speeches. I don't know what you saw. For me I saw a raving lunatic suffering the after-effects of a patriarchal accident. Tee blizz is not normal. He needs serious attention. He is even hallucinating about witchcraft and other schizophrenic elements. So he woke up, to tell us that his wife has not been cooking for him and other things that are members of the life's trivial issues department.
You went to eat from Tuface. You ate from Omawumi. You wished Tiwa was like Omawumi. Did you ask how Omawumi's husband behaves. Do you know the formula with which their marriage operates? Do you not have home training? As a man if I feel neglected by my wife or if there is something she does that I detest, I would call her and talk about it. That is why she is my partner. I am not a spectator. I am a stakeholder in my marriage. I want to state it categorically that Tiwa savage was not married. She has been single all along. Marriage is more than just living, sexing, and doing all that stuff together. Teeblizz was a guest in his own supposed marriage. He actually thought his marriage was like his company. He never saw Tiwa savage beyond that girl signed under his company's management. So it is understandable why he thought that the success of his marriage was the sole responsibility of Tiwa.
And about cheating, I can't say she cheated or not. Though I feel he brought in that line in order to solicit for sympathy if his other antics fail to persuade us. If Tiwa cheated on him, I would still hold him responsible. You cannot make your woman vulnerable to other men and blame her when she falls victim. Tee blizz is a manipulator. Just take a look at what he did to the public. Pulling stupid stunts.
A drama prince and an emotional blackmailer. With his public outburst, the hacked account issue, I am compelled even more to sympathise with Tiwa. I can imagine the episodes of emotional blackmail she must have been subjected to by him.
He was never prepared to be married.
Tiwa earned my respect though I have never been her fan. I always felt she moves her neck like a praying mantis, coupled with those kind of nigerian songs she sings. I have never been a fan. However, I have to be very objective in this.
She is lucky.
Very lucky.
She is still very young and still has much ahead of her.
You married a man whose sense of purpose died the moment he met you, as though his only life purpose was to bring you into limelight and start feeding fat on your account. He was even fraudulent towards you. Collecting money for show and keeping in his personal account. Buying cars he can't pay for. Who does that?
A woman has been struggling to put food on your table, pay your bills, cloth you, rentage, etc. All you think of doing is to bang random girls and cry to the public how she has failed in her duties. Did I not say that Teeblizz is not normal. Ok I accept it is her duty to cook for you and your duty to provide financially. You failed in yours and she didn't make any noise, instead she stood in for you. Saved you from shame and has been doing that consistently. Why didn't you go to the damn kitchen and fulfil her responsibilities since her failure to carry them out is as result of your own failure?
Give a pig jewels and it will trample them and come after you. The idea of a helpmeet is a woman who is a Saviour to the man. That is what 'EzerNegedo,' the hebrew for Helpmeet means. That was the idea for a woman. An Equal that complements you. Teeblizz just lost the best thing that ever happened to him.
I hate lazy men.
Especially lazy men who feel entitled.
The woman has been dying in silence because mumsy says: 'you are woman, build your home'. And also the divorcee thing around here; the stigma everything that comes with escaping from a dysfunctional nigerian marriage. Ignorantly some people will think it is about his financial state. It is not.
That guy is terribly sick.
When a man is struggling financially, yet blessed with a woman that pays his bills, he should be motivated to treat her well. Of all the crimes you can commit against a woman; when a woman works her butts off to feed you and you take her money to chase another girl; you are Wicked, and you don't deserve mercy. When you cheat with your own money it is fair. But cheating on her with her money? God will punish you.
That betrayal, is of the worst kind.
I want to state it again.
It is better to be single and fulfilled than to be married to a man like Teeblizz.
It is just unfortunate that Tiwa prepared for a marriage with a man who never knew what marriage is all about.
I hope she heals quickly.

Unconfirmed rumour suggests that Barrister James Ocholi (SAN), today on his way from Kaduna to Abuja lost his life in a fatal accident. This is another blow to the unhealed wounds of Kogites who lost Abubakar Audu in controversial circumstances on the eve of election results declaration.
