SmartyPants:
You may have ordinary reading comprehension, but what you lack is the more critical ability to read between the lines. What she really said was she doesn't care what label the world gives him, which is another way of saying there's no accountability at home.

You lack discernment abilities; unfortunately, it'll elude you forever unless you give up conceit. Now scram.

Originalsly:
Really? .... if he really had self confidence ... he didn't need to drag his whole army to confront the DJ.

I'm hearing Burna Boy has money and is a somebody ..... so she doesn't care how he behaves or what people say about him. I'm glad she said that hat she said ... now we can understand why he is arrogant .... the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. .... just another poor guy ... a tout ....with plenty money.

I don't hold a brief for him. In fact, you need discernment abilities. I neither said that he has self-confidence nor not. I simply dissected what his mother said.

She implicitly said that Burna Boy has self-confidence; she's in total support of that, but if you mistake his self-confidence for arrogance, she's okay with it. It seems most of you lack comprehension skills.

Abortion!!!

Nothing more nothing less.

When a woman becomes pregnant, the body starts preparing for the arrival of the child as such the breasts get fuller.

Aborting the process reverses the preparation process. The breasts that had expanded will loose the fluids that made it full.

Sagging don start gradually be that.

Repeat the process two or three times and the mountains become valleys.

An unjust and false crucifying assertion like this, obviously coming from the place of either ignorance or bitterness, might provide momentary laughter to some people, but such momentary laughter cannot equal the pains of the permanent disfiguration you would have caused the innocent people you've falsely and unjustly crucified. This is so, given that most of the people who'll read, like, and revel in your assertion are ignoramuses who cannot think for themselves. Now, they will automatically begin to see every woman with sagging boobs as an abortionist.

For the record, even though pregnancy (not necessarily abortion) does contribute to hormonal changes and increased weight during pregnancy, stretching the cooper’s ligaments, leading to sagging, particularly with multiple pregnancies, the bigger factors that do cause sagging boobs in women are down to the following:

Breast Size: Larger breasts are more prone to sagging due to gravity.

Aging & Gravity: Over time, skin loses elastin and collagen, making it less firm.

Smoking: Damages collagen and elastin in the skin.

She's simply saying that Eazi should stop being performative towards her; instead, he should start being frank with her - spontaneity is hallmark of frankness. If you haven't been in her type of position, you won't understand how draining it could be to have someone being performative toward you. Let him get informal and real with her, as a diligent person should.

You obviously misconstrue the meaning of "intentional"—which is about loving someone—for "infatuation"—which is about being in love with someone.

Love (loving someone) is a conscious, daily choice and action.

While being in love with someone (infatuation/whirlwind) is an involuntary, emotionally charged state.

Love survives when "In Love" fades: When the honeymoon phase or the initial, effortless high of "being in love" ends, intentional love takes over to sustain a long-term, deep attachment, flaws and all.

So, everything you have written in this piece is about the fate that awaits anyone who's in love, especially with a wrong wo/man. Sincerely, men ought not to be caught being in love; it should be considered a crime—women should be the ones being in love.

Love will always be supreme and inestimable. As a man, strive to conquer yourself without striving to conquer a woman, and love her without hating yourself.

Lack of definiteness of purpose and frankness from your end from the inception of the relationship is the cause of your confusion at this point.

Cut her some slack. This is necessary, given that unintentionality is not an outright lack of selflessness; rather, it is a neutral state that can result in acts that are genuinely selfless, as they often occur without a conscious, calculating, or selfish motive. Her unintentionality could have stemmed from the "I don't care about your financial contribution" impression you gave her from the inception of the relationship.

As a man, try to know the importance of definiteness of purpose and frankness in the pursuit of relationships or business. Your current state shows that you have established a definiteness of purpose—it's better late than never—it now remains frankness.

Now is the time to let her know that the type of marriage you want is one where the woman is ready to be your partner in the marriage. In other words, you would always expect her to always pull weight financially and otherwise. If it's convenient for her, you go ahead with the marriage; if otherwise, you end it there. Of course, don't forget that he who comes into equity must come with clean hands; don't long for a partner in marriage and expect to reap the benefits of a wife in a marriage and vice versa.

All things being equal, there's a win-win position for both parties. The "huge risk" lies in mentality, not age. So, the huge risk could easily be mitigated if most men were to conquer themselves and to become more frank and if most women were to start to appreciate frankness from men and embrace reality. Thus:

A man marrying a woman who has the mentality of a wife, regardless of her age, should condition his mind that he's marrying a wife and always literally strive to treat her as a wife should.

A man marrying a woman who has the mentality of a partner, regardless of her age, should condition his mind that he's marrying a partner and always literally strive to treat her as a partner should.

A man marrying a woman who has the mentality of a companion, regardless of her age, should condition his mind that he's marrying a companion and always literally strive to treat her as a companion should.

Summarily, as a man, know when what you need is a wife, partner, or companion, and as a woman, accept in good faith your position and treatment of a wife, partner, or companion subject to your mentality.

You all should cut Wike some slack. With semantics over sentiments, one doesn't need a soothsayer to know that he spoke figuratively.

Sugarboyy:
Betrayal that wanted to bite the hand that fed him.
If not for Jagaban, this betrayal wouldn't have dreamt of becoming a governor not to talk of being a vice President.
Same with Peter Obi, someone that should be contesting for House of Representatives, because of hype started thinking of becoming the president of Nigeria.

You mean the same Osibanjo who as at 1988 was an Adviser (legal advice and litigation) to the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Prince Bola Ajibola, wouldn't have amounted to anything politically without PBAT? Some of you and small-mindedness are inseparable.

That said, and although his action can't rationally be equated to "betrayal," he ought not to have contested the APC presidential primary against PBAT, his fundamental right to do so notwithstanding, given that PBAT was partly instrumental to his nomination as PMB running mate.

Kobojunkie:
Ah! Ad hominems...as expected of a religionist 🥱🥱🥱

Your myopia is second to none. Of course, I knew beforehand that you thought that submission was borne out of my belief system. Unfortunately, you are wrong. I've always been a SBNR person - it's not even like I owed you this explanation, though.

Kobojunkie:
Nonsense! A religious individual is anyone who is fanatical about their religion, no matter how diluted their interpretation of the core belief is. He is no different from the so-called godly person the OP prefers. 🥱🥱

I'm not the cause of your sickness. So, swerve before I change my mind.

It's obvious that he has mistaken a Religious Fanatic for a Religious Person. Besides, someone can be sententious, which is as toxic as toxicity itself, with or without being neither a Religious Person nor a Religious Fanatic.

This is the downside of ceding any part of your company structure/skeleton to someone, especially when ceded to an undeserving or unresourceful person - the senior Idimi should count himself lucky that it's only 10% of the company share that he ceded to them.

Must she be the one you marry? Come on, there are many fish in the river. Possessing the grit of not minding to lose anyone/thing on principle is the highest and most fulfilling point of living - imbibe it.

DEROXMAN:
I can never expect more from your type

Stop the envy. Instead of envying him, start emulating him. For one, he isn't monopolizing anything. The Nigerian economic space is too large and fertile to accommodate and prosper any enterprising person.

DEROXMAN:
Always running what others have already and monopolising, Make God juz make me hit this tax and leave this country for life, make we never meet again God please 🙏

Is he stopping you from "monopolising" any sector of the national economy? Some of you and myopia are inseperable.

This phrase "internet never forgets" is absolutely false. Anyway, I wager it's only those who do not have a background and indepth knowledge about IoT in particular, and CS/CE in general, that have always propagated it.

omoredia:
They call it charity but its actually a down payment for your soul. The devil wants us to believe the lie that we can get good things for free and without a price to pay

Some of you are irredeemably ungrateful, and small-minded in general.

Kudos to Dangote.

Yes - immeasurable times. Indeed, he's ever gracious. More so, he truly created human beings in his own image, citing how he easily manifests through some people.

Women do it too, even on this forum. I remember when about nine different women on this forum individually assumed that I was in a relationship with each of them, simply because I either extended to them the privilege to frantinize with each of them here or to some that I responded to their DMs, I was courteous in my response and benevolent towards them.

One of them even openly accused me here that I promised her a relationship and marriage offline but had to move on after waiting for me to no avail, LOL.

Their crass and opportunistic attitude doesn't stem from their brokeness but poor mentality - especially poor values.

Citing the subject of the thread, which I wager is obviously an intentional misrepresentation of his admonishment, he's wrong, because the reality is that money does help bring happiness, but from the meat of his message, he's absolutely correct with his admonishment.

Quickly do that and go and sin no more. Dist. Senator Ned isn't a bad man like most ignorant people have striven to paint him to be. You little people should know that the wrong ideology "an established man (or woman) who allows me the privilege to come closer to him - be it through marriage or friendship or relationship of any type - will indulge me to live anyhow I want and wouldn't risk altercations with me - like in this case - to prevent people from having wrong impression of him" you all held does not work on true aristocrats.

Dist. Senator Ned has proven that he isn't subjugable, and his reaction doesn't make him an oppressor.

All of you conceited people should learn to empty your cups. Jumping from one thread or section of the the forum to another striving to appear enlightened only helps expose your ignorance and emptiness. Knowledge is power, yes, but information isn't power. Anyone, regardless of IQ, can get information.

Firstly, yes, one (an individual or business) can be wealthy without debt - even though there's absolutely nothing wrong with strategic debt. And while there's nothing wrong with a strategic debt, there's everything wrong with a bad debt - bad debt is Nestoil's problem in this regard. And for a fact, its bad debt didn't stem from its oil and gas subsidiary activities. This is for those yapping about the oil and gas sector.

Bootstrapping

Examples abound about individuals and businesses that have achieved a lot without loans - at least, neither from formal lenders nor from the inception of their operations. At the risk of sounding immodest, I've done it for more than two decades in the business world, operating across numerous business lines and sectors of the global economy. The concept is called bootstrapping.

Also, a company like Microsoft, among numerous others, for instance achieved everything in the business world from its inception to pre-2008 without debts. And its post 2008 debts have always been strategic debts.

kingamaa:
Noisemaker

Go rest I beg

By implications you're a proponent and practitioner of women subjugation. That's an abomination.

Kudos to Gumi.

Envy is worrying him and his likes.

Balderdash! This is an indirect way to encourage women to accept oppression as a normal thing, which shouldn't be. The highest point of living, as a woman (human being), will always be not minding losing anything/anyone on principle - in this regard, walking away where your sanity is abused, provided that you came into equity with clean hands. I wager it's ignorance that makes people assume that physical abuse is the worst form of abuse.

Generally, almost everything is cheap in Nigeria. And with an effective wages and services upward valuation and restructuring, and goods and services price regulatory implementation, majority of the masses will start to appreciate the goodness that abound.

abbyyzino:
The writer was referring to his net worth not position. First person in Africa to reach $30B milestone

I guess you didn't see the following statement in the article: "The gain has pushed him up the world billionaires ranking to the 76th position, his highest placement in history."

Stop the misinformation. 76th position isn't his best ranking position ever on the billionaires annual ranking list. At a point, more than a decade ago, he was the 23rd richest person in the world on Forbes' annual list, with a net worth of $25 billion. This made him the first black man to break into the top 25. That was before he channeled his resources on the refinery project, and I'm glad that he has started reaping the rewards now.

I wager he's gamophobia. Anyone who tells you that you can have your sanity intact while being married to a gamophobic man, or woman, has lied to you. He ought not to have attempted marriage though, regardless of the lure of enticement or source of the pressure that made him to. Do the needful.
