I don't think some men here would take this,there is a growing trend among Nigerian men of today.

Go to every streets in Nigeria now,u will see men,I mean married men doing virtually nothing and feeling good about their new found life,that is,not working and not earning any form of income and wouldn't like to learn any form of trade.

The agonising part is that,they now rely on what the woman or their wives rake in just to survive. Many women especially the married ones are now competing with young girls in having boyfriends all around just for the money to take care of one lazy bunch at home.

Men,rise up to the occasion and stop killing your wives with over work and help them to grow and make them better wives devoid of infidelity. It is ur actions that is pushing ur wives outside.

Stop wasting the little u have on betnaija shops and expect nothing back because u are simply wasting away.

Some of u here may not find this one easy but that is the truth.

I noticed it too

But I think it's because fortunate men who are so rich has decided to be employing women because of all kinds of things from sexual reasons to just be simps etc.

So the ordinary man on the street is frustrated and have just left things to the women na since they have taken their position grin grin grin

Nigerian Men.

In this current Nigeria, If you are a Male who hails from Poor Home, No connection, and You don't want to soil your Hands.

Believe Me. Such Individuals will see Shege. Many times i see many Hardworking Nigerian men looking Tattered and Very Dirty.

Op is being Stewpid. In as much as he made some Valid Points. The Top Evil men were the ones who destroyed the Glory of this Nation.

An average Nigerian Man will steal the Money Meant for Thousands of Able Bodied Men like him. So what do one expect of those Men?? Op is Just Senseless.


How will there be a Nation which many organization are Paying N15,000 in a City as Salary and you expect Men and the nation to be Prosperous. Even the Nation minimum Wage is Paltry N30,000. What will people do with Such if not Lazying around.

I'm not surprised or moved by all the Menace going on in the nation presently. This is just only the beginning.

They should keep stealing and using the money and resources for Research and Development and Welfare of the Citizens to Carry Premium Oloshos and buying houses for them, Building useless houses in Highbrow Area, Wasting the Nations resources on Misplaced Priorities.

Apart from men who are sick, some men now rely solely on their women for survival in almost everything.

So many irresponsible men these days, roaming the streets breeding kids they can't take care of, then push all responsibilities to their wives, instead they prefer to sit around and wait for money to come to them, hell even the old men that are suppose to be a source of inspiration and mentor, are not helping matters, look at the country today, it's really sad.

I believe English is not too difficult to comprehend, but I forgive you because the language is not of African origin.

Now, back to the matter at hand;
Yes, I blame New generation mothers because they're always the ones with this don't-correct-my-child attitude. At one time, my son's FSLC examination was postponed, why? because a daughter of Jezebel fought a teacher and broke her head, simply because the teacher used a scissors ✂️ to make minor shaving on the girl's hairs as a means of signalling the parents to shave their daughter's bushy hairs, fellow modern mothers supported her actions of fighting and breaking of the woman's head while the school made clear that students must be neat at all times, that the teacher in charge must ensure that pupils under his or her watch are super neat at all times. it pained me because I was indirectly affected.

there are lots of responsible men out there who would go selfless for other people's children like my very self. I'm not boasting, I do pay for some people's children's school fees, anytime I go to the school myself, to pay for my children school fees. One day, I went to the school to pay my children's school fees as usual, because my wife wasn't around, there was this lady that was making payments for her little ones, with the denominations this woman was making the payment, one would easily notice that the woman must have passed through hell while raising the money. pieces of mutilated 5 naira, 10 naira, 20 naira notes, the highest denomination there was 100 naira, I was closely observing this woman from a corner while she was busy arranging her mutilated notes( which reminded me of how my mother of blessed memory usually paid our school fees), she quickly went to the bursar and told the Rev. sister that she would be making payments for her 3 children, later in the month, she'll come and make payment for the remaining 2. I went to the the Rev. sister who doubles as the school bursar and told her to prepare the receipt for the the woman, when the Rev sister broke the news to the her, the woman who was visibly overjoyed jumped up and hugged me in front of everyone, to God be the glory, I was able to assist.
These are some of the fictional characters from chinua Achebe story telling. Okonkwo and the rest of other characters in things fall apart never existed, they're fiction of chinua Achebe's imagination.

Yes, I struggle with the English language....that established.😂

In as much as a teacher must ensure that pupils under his or her watch are super neat at all times, he or she has no business with a
pair of scissors near the pupil's hair... addressing a note to the parents or have any of them come to the school is more appropriate.......poor pupil management!

Is FSLC exam no longer a general examination or do schools choose their days?

Good you helped out with fees, my focus is what is the rate of older men sitting down adolescent boys, young men and have deep talks with them about purpose, direction etc?

That fiction reflects that we have always had lazy men in our communities before Caucasians came to Africa.

Re: Why Are Men Becoming Lazy And Un-productive. by Mayeldah(m): 4:55pm On Jun 12, 2023
It is not a gender thing, for every idle and lazy man there are hundreds of women who are lazy too and not ready to do anything to support their husbands.

The economy is hard but we must look out for a partner that has a hustling spirit. Even if you loose your job, be determined to get another. It is shameful for a man to sit idle waiting for a woman to feed him.

Lastly, diversify your means of livelihood so that when one closes, you can remain afloat to bounce back.

And that trend is lazying around,leaving all serious domestic responsibilities for women to carry. Go to every streets in Nigeria now,u will see men,I mean married men doing virtually nothing and feeling good about their new found life,that is,not working and not earning any form of income and wouldn't like to learn any form of trade.

The agonising part is that,they now rely on what the woman or their wives rake in just to survive. Many women especially the married ones are now competing with young girls in having boyfriends all around just for the money to take care of one lazy bunch at home.

Men,rise up to the occasion and stop killing your wives with over work and help them to grow and make them better wives devoid of infidelity. It is ur actions that is pushing ur wives outside.

Stop wasting the little u have on betnaija shops and expect nothing back because u are simply wasting away.

Some of u here may not find this one easy but that is the truth.

The survival curve gets steeper with growing economic woes, my friend. You barely find a Nigerian man who's lazy. He's either working to earn via vices or via healthy sacrifices.
That's why we talk about a working system, urging men to push for ideal leaders based on ideal values, but most will rather chose by tribal sentiments than anything else and end up losing their women to few cabals with money bags. Their women would then turn around to describe them as lazy.
An average Nigerian man has no benefit from his government. Subsidy seemed to be one, but is gone. Just like children turn to parents, most women turn to their men. The men in turn, turn to who?

1) You see, it wasn't so hard to respond to the thread instead of attacking the Op personally

2) It's always amazing how nairaland guys always directly or indirectly blame women for their choice of spouse, then prove their points on one sided beliefs,

3) Now, according to you, women marry lowlifers because they were blinded by love and bad choices, what of women who married the good ones that had jobs before getting married, lost it after getting married, and refused to do anything after that, they become lazy and dependent on their wives for survival and family responsibilities, because there are so many men like that these days roaming the streets doing nothing, how exactly is it the wives fault in these situations and what made the men choose laziness instead of being productive and bread winners?
You're not serious. that nigger is very right and correct! Ladies at their tender age are very ignorant and tend to forget that life is a process. They just run after comfort zone thats all. An hardworking and diligent man wont turn lazy overnight so stop twisting the reality we already know.
Ladies love enjoyment and like sizing people. I use to know if i'm dating a useless lady because ill give you what you want if i have but know deep down that you're not for me.
I guess i'm the kind of guy you'll see in the street doing some sort of things and also gambling but still, i know when to use my head. I'm working remotely as developer and i got to meet a wonderful lady one time. She quickly judged me despite all my effort to prove i'm not a street guy. One day i had to clear her, i later apologized but glad i put her to place.

Ladies are the architect of their problem, reason i don't feel sorry for suffering women at times, Poor judgement, drastic decision making, inpatient and lack of common logic. The character i don't even like most is those that think they're really smart.

They're hardworking men but ladies don't want to be useful to themselves so they end up in bad home lol.

There are wives everywhere that fit the description of what the Op is portraying here, should we start killing them bcoz they're unproductive.

Wow! You end up being wiser than I initially thought.


DamnnNiggarr:


1. I wasn't attaching her though, but I was just cracking up some jokes, reason for the laughing emojis, but it seems the joke was a bit expensive reason you ladies misunderstood my initial intent. Are you married? if no, just know it that joking sometimes also makes marriage beautiful. I joke to high heavens with my wife. Sometimes, I'll jokingly tell her that, because I'm the most handsome, responsible and hard-working man on earth are her reasons for abandoning her old friends and never wanting to let go off me.
She'll also respond by jokingly telling me that because all other women rejected me because I'm not handsome, that's the reason why I don't want to let go off her, and life goes on and on.

2. Women should be blame for their choice of spouse because, during courtship, the lady gets to know the kind of man she's going to spend the rest of her life with. She has every opportunity to know and put to test everything about the man such as
i. Emotional Maturity;


ii. Openness:-


iii. Honesty:-


iv. Respectful and Sensitive
v. Independent
vi. Empathetic
vii Physically Affectionate
viii. Funny:-


3. In this last paragraph, I have nothing to say, other than stick to someone who possesses a skill or skills, someone that has a hand work, skilled labourers. The type of men that fall in the category you're trying to describe are salary earners, especially bankers. they don't possess any skill or handwork, reason they become miserable after being laid off or disengage from their work.

I doubt these present day ladies would look the way of that dirty mechanic guy down the street. But would jump on their feet at the sight of an unskilled banker
