When Ukariwo’s wife went on maternity a few months ago, he was fully in charge frying akara in the morning and evening couple with getting the five children ready for school in the morning and picking them after classes. “The fact that I didn’t get conventional education will not be a barrier for my children; I will make sure they get the best I can afford for now
What an exemplary man.
He's already blessed.

Na so she for don die too if the man is a useless prideful arrogant husband.
It take two to make it work.

Tallesty1:
The man for don die tey tey if to say he married a bad woman.

But God blessed him with a woman of noble character, for her price is far above rubies.

The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.

She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.

She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.

She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.

She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.

She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.

She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.

She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.

She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.

She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.

She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.

She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.

Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.

She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.

Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.

She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.

She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.

Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.

Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.

Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord , she shall be praised.

Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

There's one on my street too. The husband does all the hard-work, and the wife just sell to customers.

If yoruba man try that one, him family go say him wife done turn their pikin to mumu.

Maybe the Yoruba women are not as respective, submissive and understanding as their Igbo counterparts hence the reasons why their husbands are unwilling to cooperate with them

I wonder o! THIS YEYE Igbo MAN IS AS LAZY AS Bleep! this hopeless loafer should leave the akara "business" for his wife and find something more engaging, dignifying amd manly to do, all the shameless mofo does is to senselessly procreate yeye pickins who sooner than later would turn to social miscreants.besides, what gives him the impression that he has conquered poverty with this yeye roadside akara "business? HE NEEDS TO BE CASRATED FAST!!!!!!

The bolded is the only reasonable point u stated while others are trash.

Come to idumota, balogun and yaba market in Lagos. You will see yoruba men (young guys and boys) frying akara, cooking meals, etc to make send meet. This is more reason u igbos can never rule because of your senseless pride.

For the man supporting his family, May God bless his hustle likewise other men doing the same.


Where and when did I say yoruba men don't do it @all?

This is how they struggle and strategise. Tomorrow when they buy a land n build their house n the children they are training today become achievers some dolts will say Igbos aren't respectful, they don't bow to their hosts, that they want to take over and all d bs they spew.

Tell me why they won't celebrate n freestyle when they climb from grass to grace by hardwork n determination! Someone will see it as show off if they reject oppression. Yeye ppl! God bless this couple n dia family biko!

You are right and that's why it is important to develop one's ancestral fatherland. If you make it big or small in your homeland nobody can challenge your enjoyment. If you are a visitor in somebody else land, you have to behave and not offend your host. Like it or not.

Guess what the British told Dangote when he offered to buy Arsenal?

Until there is a law restricting movement n settlement in any part of Nigeria or repealing the right to freely establish n own businesses n properties in any part of Nigeria without harassment u n ur kind have no right to dictate who goes or stays where. In other words on the basis of those rights no 'host' should dictate to a citizen where or how to live provided they're not breaking any law or interfering with culture/tradition.
Business, commerce n politics have nothing to do with tradition so dem 'hosts' can shove it!

There is theory and there is practice. No matter what is written in the constitution of Nigeria, I am a Yoruba man and I am not moving to Sokoto or Daura. If I do for any reason I would be foolish to carry on as if i am in Abeokuta or claim that I have the same right and authority as the people of Daura.

My friend Abeg forget our make-believe constitution. The idiots who put it together did not envisage that Igbos will totally reject and abandon their fatherland or go looking for a no mans land in another tribe's territory. In the next 30 years I see the Gwarry people laying their claim to their rightful Abuja. If you ignore them they will respond with suicide bombing.

All courtesy of the kind of federalism we practice. If we had regional n decentralised system of govt everyone will develop at their pace n answer their father's name. For any lapses u hold ur fellow countryman responsible cos the buck rests with them. In as much as d centre holds d purse strings, collects d lion share and conveniently favours some groups to d deliberate near exclusion of others then Nigeria will not do much better than it is.

You can be sure that if each region had to source for their income n development whilst paying an agreed percentage to d centre, no silly governor will sit on his arse n wait for handouts at d end of the month then still blame inability to pay common salaries on the centre or oil prices. They will seriously explore n develop other resources n not wait for FG because it's on one Executive list.

You are correct my friend, our #constitution# will unravel itself sooner or later.

It falsely and deceitfully assumes that we are one, we love each other and everyone is a willing and happy party to the agreement.

Nigeria is a country built on lies.

The way he carries the wife business for head you will think he was jazed. Another one in Apapa always intrigue me, though this one na shop. But they no dey shame and they are proud of it. This was opposite of what I witnessed in my service year in some part of ......... In which the husband wakes up in the morning to be drinking kainkain and playing drafts and ludo.waiting for one of the wives to go farm and cook good meals.
