FamilyRe: My Mother Threatens To Commit Suicide If I Don't Leave The House by rickleye:
Greattestman:
My mother has been threatening to commit suicide if I won't leave the house for her and her husband to be (my step-father to be). She gave me ultimatum of some days so I decided to call my uncle in the US and told him what was happening, he advised me to leave and get another house and he promised to pay my rent.

Two days ago he sent me 300, 000 Naira and I paid my rent 50, 000. I packed in today but my mother doesn't know my house and I'm planning to cut my mother off my life.

I seriously miss my father.
Dude I don’t know you from Adam but you’re just sensationalizing your story.
Your mother is in love with someone and will now kill herself because you refuse to leave the house ?
She will now put a stop to her earthly happiness and that of her husband because of you ?
I mean she commits suicide and will you be charged as the person who caused her to do so ?

At the end of the day .. you have your place and she is rid of you , I guess everyone is happy.

RomanceRe: What’s The Downsides Of Marrying A Man That Cheated On You by rickleye: 10:11pm On Dec 28, 2022
It boils down to True Repentance
What made him cheat, was it that you ignored him . ( this is easy and with a time table, 2/3 a week ) it can be easy to manage.
Also was it serial ( with many women ) This would be hard and needs a process to stop the addiction.

Downside is that you aren't married yet and such is happening really doesn't bold well for the marriage.
I would advice that you get a court legal document and not make a huge noise about the wedding. ( Spending Lavishly with this particular fellow)

Kapeter:
I shuttle between Ibadan, Abeokuta and Lagos often. I'm mostly on that expressway but for a while now I've been stuck in Ibadan cuz of the numerous evil news about the Fulani herdsman menace on that highway.

Just before this December I read on the news some AIG visited this very same highway and together with Seyi Makinde the governor of Oyo state, I remember they promised that the road will become safer and there should be no panicking or fear and that people should go about their journey as it would become just as before where everyone can travel safely using the expressway.

Hehe. Yesterday was my favourite cousin introduction at Abeokuta and I had no choice than to be there.

I took a public bus (not that I have a car though but I can always get one when the need arise) off to Abeokuta and on my way what I saw makes me wanna go to every SW government house and say a very big thank you to all our governors.

There are bunch of Amotekun stations, Police, Army. Almost at every where till the end of Oyo state axis and then when you get to the Ogun state axis, you will see the OP Mesa patrolling the whole expressway.

The Ibadan axis has actually been the hotspot for the criminals actually but almost everywhere on the road you will see Amotekuns station even 12 am I was still on the road yesterday travelling safely with peace of mind seeing the huge security on that expressway.

This is Akeredolus biggest achievement so far in governance as the chairman of the SWGF. I couldn't help but be once again glad and proud to be South Westerner yesterday when I saw Amotekuns stations all over the place.

What I found amazing the most yesterday was if your car/vehicle get broken, you'd be surprised at the speed the OP Mesas and Amotekuns would get to you to stay with you while you fix it. Damn. They will stay right there with you protecting you untill your car can move again. Na. This is all that I ever pray for.

I'm so proud of SW governors for Amotekun. God bless them so much. Tonim God bless you and yours too. Thanks for all the love you have for Yorubaland.

Yorubaland will sure take its place God willing.
What is / are Amotekun ?

Sometimes she will even wake me up at midnight to prepare it for her. Women!

Garri. 1 cup - 50 naira
Palm oil. 50 naira (I didn’t use all)
Onion. 20naira

CrimeRe: Bolanle Raheem's Husband Gives Chilling Account Of How She Was Murdered by rickleye: 3:37pm On Dec 27, 2022
Fira09:
Gbenga Raheem, the husband of a female lawyer, Omobolanle, who was shot dead by an Assistant Superintendent of Police, Drambi Vandi, in the Ajah area of Lagos state on Christmas day, December 25, has given a chilling account of how his seven-months pregnant wife was murdered.

LIB had earlier reported that Bolanle had just left an eatery and was driving with some of her family members including her daughter when the police officer fired at her car, killing her on the spot.

Narrating the ugly incident the victim’s husband, Gbenga, said;




SOURCE
I am NOT defending the cops actions but the story has a hole.
-Was he asking for something for Christmas before he decided to shoot ?
- Was it an accidental discharge ?.
- Why would a 33 year old veteran forfeits all in the twilight of his career in the afternoon ?
- Any reasonable person would have seen that she was pregnant so why kill 2 people ?
- " he cocked his gun at her too " means some kind of confrontation had occurred with the deceased and the cop .

Hence why the investigation must occur.
1. To make sure he doesn't hide under stress or insanity defense
2. To make sure the deceased was not wrestling the gun with the cop.

What a terrible way to pass and on Christmas Day sad

PoliticsRe: Second Niger Bridge Users Will Pay Toll - FG by rickleye: 5:02pm On Dec 22, 2022

[color=#000099][/color]

Truth is, government has to recover part of the cost of making new highways. It must not be forever. After 10 years it should be discontinued.
It depends on how construction and maintenance was financed. Every so often, the taxpayers agree to build a bridge. Other times they may object to the cost and only agree to partial funding. In that case, people using the bridge are charged a toll until the costs are paid off. In some cases, it’s never paid off.



No fund was borrowed to complete this project, it was funded with the repatriated Abacha loot.
I agree that there should be tolls - To maintain the bridge users should be able to pay when using it. It is a convenience. If not take the longer route around.
The bridge was not built with BOOT - Build own operate and Transfer - So no cost are to be paid off.
I am not sure about your 3rd paragraph - Abacha's loot.
The Issue with tolls is that the govt will levy N1000 - the ticket will be Issued for N2500.

PoliticsRe: Lessons From The Second Niger Bridge - Thisday by rickleye: 4:47pm On Dec 22, 2022
So It took Nigerian Govt 43 years to build a bridge the white man would have completed in 4 years. Yet we still blame the white man for ills going on in the country. Or when they left they also took away our common sense and logic.
And you want us to celebrate just a single achievement of the Minister and failed APC govt. How short -sighted are we ?
How's the bridge going to be maintained ? You better give out the contract and make it Iron clad for 99 years or else the bridge going to have pot holes and death traps in a few years.

STOP PRESS !!
I know someone who had been away for 15 years and just returned this year. His bag was supposedly tampered with ( It had arrived in an earlier flight ). The plastic wrap was removed -however on closer inspection, there was a note from the American law enforcement that they had opened it, checked it and removed NOTHING.

I am saying this to say, It isnt the norm.

That said - YOUR BAG isn't worth 400 Euros. Maximum 60 euros. If you purchased a bag for 400 euros - you have been taken to the cleaners.
A set isnt worth 400 Euros so lets stop with the lies.
