patholaw: Its worse dan dat in d pix oh...cuz am in makurdi now. Water chased pple 4rm their houzes 4rm gboko road down 2 wadata...covered most of d houzes.

really? which part of Gboko road exactly? the last time i was there, wuruku and environs had been partially submerged but wadata was still ok.

I just hope the bridge has not been affected.

lastpage:
Dont mind "some" of these "silly women" who for lack of good upbringing, end-up destroying their own homes!
(l know some of them will still use the same "sharp tongue" on me for saying this...just watch!)

Any sensible person can even see through where the trouble lies, from the woman's own statement which l will "quote and analyze" below:

.

Arising Questions:

1.) Why argue violently with your husband, to the point where "Temper's flare"?

2.) Why not just 'take a deep breath' or sip a cup of water (this has often work for me when l am annoyed) and let "Tempers cool down"? Then re-visit the matter in a calm manner.

3.) In any "hot argument"....and "tempers will flare", one person must "calm down" otherwise it will lead to a fight!
It is called "confrontation" and war of "will".
Now, if l know that l cannot "physically over-power" someone, WHY would l "CHALLENGE HIM/HER" into 'heated argument leading to confrontation'?, l will be a fool not to know when to bark-out!

4.) But if l continue to the point of "provocation" (which is a natural progression of events in a heated argument/confrontation) ....and get smacked, is it not common sense to know that "l got it coming"?

5.) If l cant control my own temper, why do l expect the other person involved to be able to control his own?.......or dont we both have emotions and self control? Okay, he is a man and is supposed to be a "superior super man"?
No way, we are both equal!
If this woman repeats the same "provocation" with another "woman" outside, she will still get smirked! Or have we not seen a woman beating the hell out of another woman?
Men do same to each other when one dont know when to bark out of a confrontation!
Just common sense, not some ego! That's the "PLAIN BITTER TRUTH" of any fight.

6.) That the "man APOLOGIZED afterwards" shows that his actions are not "premeditated" but an "instantaneous reaction to provocation". He shows that he wishes not to have gone that far (in his heart), if not for being provoked beyond 'self control'.
In Physics, there is a universal law which says that "Action and Reaction are EQUAL and OPPOSITE"

You hit a wall, it hit you back, cos you feel the pain in your knuckles! You dont hit it, you dont feel that pain. S-I-M-P-L-E!

So, the simple and easiest solution to all these squabbles and violence in the family is for BOTH PARTIES to stop PROVOCATIVE ACTIONS that lead to "physical fights"!

Let the woman be a "woman" ....gentle, subtle, respectful, full of sweetness and endearing words! Not the aggressive, confrontational and insulting ones like that woman!


Also, let the man be "a man"......slow to anger, caring and full 'leadership' and 'headship' of his family!
Not some drunken pugilist or excessively domineering type.


In my own humble opinion, until women generally learn to "accept their place and position in a marriage", there will ALWAYS be trouble.
"Two Captains" in "One ship" is a recipe for disaster....."Time" has shown that to be true.

Lastpage!

BTW: Now, let me hear the 'bombs' flying back at me!

A big bottle of chilled stout for you.

cap28: women who beat up their husbands are very much in the minority and not the norm amongst nigerians. You are always going to get one or two isolated cases of women who beat up their husbands but in no way is this as commonplace as nigerian men who beat up their wives.

minority of majority is irrelevant here. Bottom line is violent acts against a fellow human being, male or female, is wrong and barbaric and should never be condoned.

cotton101: SMH at some posts here - what other side do people want to hear again, do you people honestly think that woman are the cause of the abuse in EVERY single case.

This is the nonsense i had to deal with while I was in Nigeria, so glad i left

I'm not sure anyone is saying the woman is the cause. However barbaric the incident is, he/she deserves a chance to explain his/herself. things are not always as they seem.

Do you remember the Wilcox case? the first time her battered, bloodied face surfaced on cyberspace, ostensibly the handwork of an abusive husband, virtually everyone came out asking for his balls on a guillotine. But when the man came out with his own side of the story--corroborated by his children, I must add--a very different picture presented.

Callotti: Because they give bigots the necessary e-r-e-ctions to function!

na you be that??

what more interests us beside religion and tribal sentiments?

BTW i don't particularly see anything wrong with such attitudes

Nightshift: Perhaps in 30 years ! Toyota said same in 1989. Where you see them? Inside cooking pot....

really?

one brand new sentra coming ri' up

servicom is dead. they used to perform before, but not anymore.

1.2 mill for a 2001??

this one sells for N100

does he really have the powers to do that? have the courts pronounced them guilty?

Essencysun: Nice one there, but kissing is not meant for singles, Hiccup is very annoying and dreadful, we used to believe it's when one is thirsty but you drinks water and it continues.

tell them o!

masterpiecer: Truth has never made sense to you anytime

comedians wey full this site. . .

furthermore, what's with all this irritating ''it could happen to anybody'' mantra? so any lady with common sense could go doing business (allegedly) with guys she's never met in real life, in a [i]hotel [/i]room, in a city with a reputation as Lagos's??

hmmmm. . .

infolekan: #wondering# what will be said at the end of your own life. THE MAN WHO EXERCISED DISCRETION

would make catchy epitaph, don't you think?

BTW we all grieve at the unfortunate and tragic demise, but trying to justify what is patently unjustifiable is, in my view, sending a wrong and dangerous signal to those who may tempted to tow the same line in future.

armadeo: If u see what was done to this girl u all will be baying for blood. She was MURDERED. Whether runs girl or buisness woman. Vibrator or not. her life was terminated by idiots.they didn't give her life so they had no right to take it. I hope they rot in hell.

I have never been so incensed on nl.

you don't get it.

And I'm not even interesting in the vibrator thingy. the fact remains that her death was largely PREVENTABLE. had she exercised a little common sense, there's a good chance she'll be in her Kaduna office right now enticing her clientele with her enchanting smile.

whether you like it or not, there will always be unpardonably evil men in this world who take obvious delight committing the most heinous of crimes. While it is true one cannot guarantee 100% protection the very least one could is to exercise discretion

weep for her? sorry, i had no intentions of doing so in the first place. Yes, I know it sounds harsh and callous, but given the circumstances of her unfortunate death, I'm sure I can be forgiven for maintaining this attitude.

May she RIP though. . .

I reside in abuja, the price is N250/mudu

sorry where do you buy yours from? the price has remained the same at my area.

valacious: Close to 27thread pages on this garri issue. People no get work at all!!!

on the contrary, my good friend, some, indeed, many of us have a lot of work to do. but it helps to unwind once in a while, which is what I think the purpose of this thread serves. unfortunately some people are not getting it. . .

now back to the topic at hand, what's the current price of garium sulpahte


#operationReduceTHEpriceofGARRI

donigspain: GARRI feat. Beans/Fried Egg

not bad at all!

Ishilove: Lol. Me too o, nwoke

[size=15pt]What people fail to realise is this so-called garri revolution is just a bunch of folks having FUN. Totally harmless fun.[/size] Prior to these whole 'no more garri posts' nonsense, you didn't have more than one or two posts alluding to the price of garri on a thread. It would have faded off eventually,so I think it is very unfair that Seun and his posse of mods, particularly mukina2 and YOU, sexkillz, hound the garri 'freedom fighters'. We are just having fun my dear, cut us some slack and quit the indiscriminate and extremely annoying banning.

I don't know if banning is to mukina what cocain is to a drug addict

That the bolded above is lost on some otherwise smart peeps is totally beyond me. I just can't understand what it is with some folks.

Of course I don't subscribe to derailing unrelated threads with inane garri comments, but this thread is different.

get a grip guys. . . #friendly advice

where in abuja do they sell the cheapest garri?


#operationReduceTHEpriceofGARRI
