AderonkeOlaniyi:
We don't know him as a Nollywood actor. He was a Yoruba actor and not Nollywood.

Let me ask you, where do Yoruba theatre practitioners belong to? It has to be mediocrity or just sheer mischievousness to think otherwise.

Tinubulaba:
Which Nollywood?
Maybe Afonjawood

People have left that point where you are.

Yorubas in Nollywood are the pioneers and still the pacesetters. Go check out blockbuster movies and see the people behind them.... They're Ọmọluabis.

Baba Olofa Ina, It's so sad to see you too go. You were a master of your craft. You had a good command of the Yoruba language embellishing your thoughts with axioms and proverbs. What about strength of character? You had it all. The generation of the legends is gradually trickling away. Sometimes I worry. I fear for you, I fear for Bàbá Adẹ́rùpọkọ̀, I fear for Bàbá Ẹ̀dá Oníléọlá, Í fear for Bàbá Wándé, and I pray for longer life for you. You seem to have succumbed. Ibikíbi tẹ bá wà, Afẹ́fẹ́ ire o.

You will be sorely missed. Rest on Legend!

vislabraye:
Men are allowed to speak. I totally agree with you. Did you listen to Emeka Ike's trouble with his wife ?
He got the sympathy of the public. In fact, many eyewitnesses spoke on his behalf. Truth is that Emeka Ike's was hardly at fault. He was a responsible man who loved and took good care of his family.
Can you compare that to Yul ? WHich reasonable person would come out to say 2023 was his best year after losing a child ? You have to be sensitive. What would his other children think about him ?

Exactly, how I feel. You know sometimes when we say some things, they don't come out the way we meant it to. It's insensitive on his part to say it's his best year. However the wife, May should just move on with her life if she wants to or just stay quietly in the marriage and face her children. I'm sure Yul is talking from the standpoint of his political affiliations and maybe business conquests but then, It's a whole child that died! However, It's becoming irritating. They should both act maturely and take their matter off the public space.

Wayne Rooney should come and take over Arsenal

We reject it in Jesus name!

Notfogotten:
Does a wife earning more than the husband affect the marriage institution?

While a lot of people believe it does as according to them most women in this category tends to disrespect the man; others believe it doesn't as there are women who earn more than the husband and the information is known only between the man and the wife.

What is your opinion, do you have real life
experience or know a family where marriage is suffers because the woman later turned out to be earning more?

What would your advice be for men who later in life earns less than their wives?

What would be your advice for women who later earn more than the husbands

It doesn't affect the marriage in any way. You both have a home to run. The Koko is let everything be run well, it matters little where the headquarters is, operation must not stop, that's the Koko.

mariahAngel:
Did you ask your mum why it was so important to her that you married the lady, even up to the point of blackmailing you into doing it, and at the detriment of your happiness?
Did she swear an oath with someone or what?

Good question!

VinnyBaba:
Just Shut up and STOP TELLING LIES Plz!

Why will a Fan not eat because his Team lost?

Every Football Club has Their Good and Bad Days and Sensible fans knows this.!

Yes! Every club has its down moments. Look at Chelsea and Man U, even Liverpool, they're top teams but their fortunes have been on a downward plunge for some time now. Arsenal's win probability is better than theirs and all their fans will not kill themselves over that. I support Arsenal and it's painful whenever we lose, really painful. My husband knows and taunts me each time we lose, friends and family call and taunt me or sympathise with me, but you know what? Heaven will not fall. Life goes on, we move and prepare for the next match.

My resolve is to always support Arsenal; even if Arsenal relegates, I'll still support!

Not eating or throwing tantrums is just being childish and inconsiderate.

Gandrova:
May Almighty God bless you

Amen and you too. Gracias!

FeliciaOja:
I just don't get how a football make guys lose their minds.. sometimes I feel it is satanic

It's not satanic. You just want your team (which is like your baby) to do well. Like yesterday's match now, I didn't watch it because the reviews before the match didn't look good for us so I have kinda switched off. He should be able to do that - Know when we're fantastic and know when the odds are against us. That way you keep yourself in check. Just talk to him ok?

FeliciaOja:
God knows how much I tried to overlook this behavior. Thanks I think I will break up tomorrow

I am a staunch Arsenal fan. I've been following Arsenal since the time of Dennis Bergkamp, Ray Parlor, Jeremie Aladiere, Julio Baptista, Antonio Reyes, Kanu Nwakwo and the likes and by now, I've gotten used to Arsenal's inconsistency. How old is he? He should get a hold of himself and get a life outside of football. There will be good days and awful days like last night. Why should he take out his frustration on you? As a man, he should have a grasp over his emotions and treat you right. You're not responsible for his woes. Sit him down and tell him all these, if he's unflinchingly adamant, dump him! He cannot head a home! He's a disaster waiting to erupt.

Kingosytex:
I wonder the type of mentality women have
In Nigeria, no one is putting any pressure on you to make money, why can't you remain pure and chaste?

It's much easier to close one's legs and be chaste than to hustle and make money as a man. Why can't women close their legs? Must you always fornicate?

Men overtly encourage this whorish attitude, they set the trend that these ladies follow. The ladies have absolutely no power because the power of commitment lies with the man. If men set standards of no virginity, no marriage, all the women out there will close their legs and zip up.

Ó sọ̀rọ̀ bíi Atọ̀ọ́lé, ó sọ̀rọ̀ bíi Òpònú!

While I don't condone sleeping around under any guise, some women do it because they are actually pressured to provide. In many homes in Nigeria, women are co-breadwinners or sole breadwinners. Some can't think of another way than to exchange sex for Goodwill.

Entanglement:
during that period of friendship for 16years, shay you be dey collect preeks from different sources
Madame say the truth!
Then after you collect preek to maximum utilities, you come sell your second hand toto to your simp husband
Never relax yet ohh. Karma dey wait for Una!

That's the problem with many of you. I'm not your stereotype girl. You weren't even there. And if I did, it should be the least of your problem. Face your flood before it drowns you.

Chienex24:
Best dream of any man or woman.
Marrying someone from childhood/adolescence had always been my dream though it never worked out though.


I truly envy those who pulled through because in most cases, those marriages last long, if not forever and they live happily.

You are right because almost always, the friendship is pure, devoid of ulterior motives and you are not under any form of pressure to do anything.

My husband and I were friends for 16 years before we eventually formalised it. We've been married for a lil over a decade and it still feels like yesterday. Marriage is sweet when you marry your friend.

I swear bro. highest them fit see na draw. though i see Arsenal losing 4:1 thanks to kudus

The next game for Arsenal is against another London rival, West Ham United. A win will mean Arsenal will finish on the number 1 spot....
#COYG.....

Which is why I'm a bit skeptical. Derbies are always a tough nut to crack. I want us back on top of that table.

I'm addicted to shopping. I like going to the market.

Naijagram:
Seeking your thoughts, everyone!!!

I work as a salaried individual and earn around 400k monthly.

However, my girlfriend constantly asks for money. I give her almost 100k every month and she feels it's not enough for her. She's even voiced discontent, suggesting I only send her money when she explicitly requests it.

I'm beginning to suspect her motives, as she seems solely focused on my income.

She never suggests saving or helps in cutting costs; her primary interest lies in spending everything.
Despite my genuine love for her, I can't keep up with her demands. I had hopes for our future together, but it seems unlikely now.

I'm considering a breakup as a solution.

Has anyone navigated a similar situation?

From a big sister to her kid bro... Please let her go. Any woman that will not help you build a dynasty, but squander things like a prodigal son is nothing but a witch from the gravest covens. Run! She is no good.

You Christians love to insult Allah and you think there's no repercussion?

Ask your crazy compadre who opened this thread what exactly is the purpose of this thread. You are the ones who love to ridicule the other. You are the ones always courting trouble. You are the ones claiming victim when you are the tormentor, you are the violent one who always feign peaceful.

Know this, no matter what you or your folks do, Ọlọrun ni o ma jẹ, Ọjọ ori o sọ d'arugbo, Irun Orí o sọ d'ọle, O ti n dé adé ka to da ilé ayé, O ti n j'ọba ka to ṣẹda eniyan. Olori angẹli, Ọba eniyan, Ọba ẹranko, Ọba ẹda gbogbo. He's the king to whom all flesh returns. Our master, He reigns supreme.

Are you still here? Just gettat!

clear road! Clear road! Birthday boy they come😂
Bizarre, and some Christians find it amusing.
Pity.

Go to your Muslim session, that has been segregated on Nairaland, and go say your opinion there... and see if your brothers will not sacrifice you for blasphemy.

I don't exactly understand what you want us to say or do. Tear down billboards? Set fire on media houses? Block roads? Start killing people for blasphemy? Or demand that all skit makers apologise or we destroy them? Just what? Our God fights for himself if and when He needs to. He needs no help from anyone to do what He likes when He wants.

We're not violent like you guys, ok? Don't heat up the polity more than it's already volatile. People are hungry, people are unemployed, people are insecure, those are enough trouble. If you are spewing for more trouble, take your biterness to your people in the mosques, go and fry yourselves there. Radarada!

It's not advisable, especially for the man. From experience, the fever gets worse afterwards. For a woman, I don't know, there's no way I'm gonna do it if I feel unwell. It's not food!

You can Google it or use AI.

Olachase:
I wish him all the best

Tho I never still understand this man name

I'm not from that side, I'm from the North Central but I like to think I'm Yoruba...

Except 'Aiyedatiwa' has a figurative meaning that we're not aware of...then the literal meaning will be The World Has Become Our Own.

They think UK is a country you misbehave like Nigeria without consequences. Those guys over there have ethics. Nigeria is lawless

Your comment sums it all up. Many people here are anyhow people. This 'anyhowness' will teach some people valid lessons!

Nigerian girls became more useless in 2023


they proved mosdii right again

Do you mean your entire 2023, and by extension your whole life, is centered around Nigerian girls? Little wonder you are the way you are.

Keep brooding and sulking.... Nigerian girls are doing exploits, they're conquering the world, they're breaking grounds, they're achieving feats. We laugh about your type over a matinee and wraps of sharwarma.

Hello Nairalanders

Happy Festive Season 🎊🎈🎉

As we all know that year (2023) is gradually coming to an end

So this year has been a great one to some people while some is "Let's just thank God" and some is the other direction

So tell us in one word how the year 2023 is to you

MINE: Is splendid and fabulous

So tell us your own

Sweetness!

I changed house, I changed jobs, Just Sweet!

BananaPeel:
Did he not see the name is different from what you sent?
He should have called you when he saw a different name.

Exactly what I did with a colleague. We, some colleagues and I, made some deal at work and the proceeds came directly to my account. l was to disburse the money so they all dropped their details. When it got to the turn of this particular person, I discovered the name didn't tally. I sent for her to confirm if that was deliberate or an error, it turned out it was a mistake. That was how we were able to avoid N-gbati N-gbati I no want wahala abeg!

Go to Victoria Island and see good decorations Zenith bank did on the whole street

I was about to say this. Some parts of Lagos are really beautiful, especially on the Island. Come to VI, come to Ikoyi in the evening, they look stunning. The Civic Tower, The Zenith Street on VI, The Falomo Roundabout, they're good looking.
