RomanceRe: Some Bitter Truths You Must Realize As A Woman by Saladdin: 7:25am On May 02
ojuu4u:
I wish the guy who wrote about men should read this and feel ashamed for himself, why this one encourages women development towards positive impact in society . The other one, encouraging toxicity towards fellow human beings and by extension igniting crises in the society.
Anyway, the type of parents brought up person determine he who will become and what he will be saying.
I'm genuinely curious, how does his post encourage toxicity against anyone or the society?

Tinubu will win the north
Which North? Maybe Abeokuta North LGA sha.

Because it can't be the North where he arrogantly refused to leave the airport to visit citizens you govern by saying "no light".

Hope you know that in some certain parts of Northern Nigeria, people are being warned that whoever bring spaghetti and co to buy votes will be flogged ditto whoever collects it.

Better wake up and smell the coffee we are taking back our country!

Add Ondo too if Seyi is VP candidate. Maybe a triple horse race is not bad afterall because Tinubu seems to have lost all goodwill in the North
If the below is the electoral makeup of 2027, then congrats to Tinubu in advance.

1. ADC: Atiku & Makinde
2. APC: Tinubu & maybe Dogara
3. NDC: Obi/Kwankwaso.

There's no point to prove, because I fail to see the hidden joker that will make No 2 lose to a disunited 1 & 2.
RomanceRe: My Ex Is Not My Enemy — Lady Attends Her Ex-Boyfriend's Wedding by Saladdin:
I believe people calling this "maturity" are just being sarcastic. This speaks a lot about the respect she accords herself and the value she placed on the man she's with. Practically no self respecting woman should do this. I'm not someone to judge anybody by their looks, but the vibe she's exuding from her appearance says a lot. I wonder if their brain is positioned180° south of how it's supposed to be positioned.

Some even still have that disgusting practice of keeping contacts of their exes (like this one) and still following them on social media. Like what do you still want? Any self respecting man who sees that cannot take you serious. He'll "enjoy" himself and ditch you for another lady capable of loyalty and actual maturity.

Man or woman, please STOP contacting your exes nor keeping their contacts (except for rare reasons which is the exception), you position yourself as a disloyal person.

So if she's already married, she'll still attend the wedding? Then we wonder why adultery is common and marriages are hitting the rocks.

Right on point. The Epsteins aren't used to heat and tropical weather. Leeches, mosquitoes and heat did a number of them in Vietnam. Only God knows the horror that awaits them should they invade Persia this season.

Perhaps, they know that they would not be able to stomach seeing dead American soldiers dumped and floating on the Karun River.

When you were joining NATO in 2024 and acting belligerent towards Russia, you never envisaged that The Hormuz will be closed in as little as two years after.

I have no single pity for Europe, if you like resort to using oil lamp, that's the price you'll pay for being a bi#$h.

I'd even love it if Iran runs a tiered toll system.

I thought they said Yorubas are the most educated?

The kind of propaganda we were fed by those traditional media in this country can only be judged in Heaven. They said Igbos are only selling spare parts at Ladipo.

They said Ekiti state has the highest number of Professors in Nigeria yet the record shows it is Imo state.
Really? Kindly indulge my curiosity a bit as I'd like to see the record/statistics that shows Imo having the highest number of professors.

Thank you.

Exactly. I find all these "oluwole" statistics from Femi Bejide very very funny. You'll wonder the metrics he used to arrive at his conclusion. So he left out the Gwaris, Nupes, Ebiras and lump them as "others" even though the literacy rates vastly varies across minor ethnic groups.

Namaster:
I DISAGREE with the last part of this post.
There has NEVER been a better time for divorce than right now.

The PDFile has THREATENED to pull the US out of various agreements and arrangements with Europe.

The ONLY reason he hasn't is because Europe has undertaken an ENDLESS campaign of PDFile-PACIFICATION.

All they have to do is STOP.
The PDFile will handle the rest.

For instance, the ridiculous SANCTIONS you mentioned are being ENFORCED by Europe themselves.

Imagine SANCTIONING ICC Judges for doing their JOBS.

All Europeans banks have to do is PULL OUT of the US Banking Infrastructure.

DEVELOP theirs or temporarily port to an ALTERNATIVE.

Their economies may SUFFER but so will the US's .

America has POWER over Europe because Europe ALLOWS it.

Countries in Europe should STOP acting alone.
They NEED a unity of direction.

Letting a PDFile attack one of their countries or leaders is INSANE.

Their continuous rotation at the White House is DISGRACEFUL.

Europe is NOT like other continents that are DEFENSELESS against American aggression.

Their helplessness is SELF-IMPOSED.

They are CLINGING desperately to a system that the PDFile is intent on BURNING to the ground.

Imagine ENFORCING sanctions on Judges who did EXACTLY what they were supposed just because the PDFile didn't like it.

MADNESS!
While I agree with you to large extent. But the issue is that the Whites see Europe and America as one. On the surface, it might look like there is intense fighting among, but deep within their circles, they speak and act as one, and also obey the same master.

Non-white should not make the mistake of thinking they are truly separate entities. Technically UK still "owns" Canada and Australia. Because should they need to invade any country in real-time, they'll keep all their differences aside and act as one. Türkiye and India, two countries with snake-faced leaders are already learning.

Like your Islamic terrorists government is sympathetizing with boko haram Islamic terrorists. Rehabilitating them with more money, releasing them back to the society, for them to continue their killings, addictions ramsons and jihadism...go and face your nemesis in peace. They monster you created is dealing with you all.
Bro, I mean no harm but that comment was unnecessary. NOBODY (except maybe Okey and co) here supports the government's lukewarm attitude to insecurity. But what I'm sure of is nearly EVERYBODY here regardless of tribe or religion supports anything and everything to end insecurity.

Did you saw that show of shame that happened in Lagos few days ago? People were openly robbed for 1hr+ in West Africa's most cosmopolitan city without any security intervention. If anybody was kidnapped would we say it's their fault?

Half of the country has capitulated but the buffoons in Abuja are only concerned about 2027 which nobody is sure of witnessing.

So just scratch it as a misnomer and forget about it.

That Sultan is a disgrace and deserves whatever he gets from being a two-faced snake. They consider you good enough to join NATO and and act as a deterrent to potential allies.

But they don't consider you good enough to be integrated into the EU after nearly 3 decades struggle with over a dozen countries successfully joining after your application.

Until you choose a side and stick to it, you'll continue to receive fringe advantages of not being in the axis and all of the disadvantages of aligning with the West.

JUST IN - Iran says it's ready and monitoring U.S. redeployments, that are for either "psychological pressure" in the negotiation or for a "surprise and rapid military attack," and warn if attacked they will re-target Aramco, Yanbu, and Fujairah.
I pray Persia should add Elbit, Yehuda Group, and that Haifa Refinery this time around. Let them pound them intensely like they'd do with Aramco.

Make it a duty to dedicate some missiles and drone to attack every single gathering points of the ghou*ls anytime they want to make incursions into Gaza.

FamilyRe: As Husband, If You Met Your Wife Like This, What Would Be Your Reaction? by Saladdin: 5:48pm On Apr 18
Mariangeles:
It is part of the Yoruba culture in the place of apprenticeship, if you offend your madam.

You want your wife to do freedom, abi you don't want?

Wetin you sef go find where your wife dey learn work in the first place, eh follow-follow husband?
Na between she and her madam, so mind your business.
Such system is fast fading especially with coming of all these new age institutes ran by young people. It was because decades ago, such skills were concentrated in the hands of literate and semi-educated people who owns roadside shops.

All that is changing, and with competition everywhere now, whoever insists on stubbornly sticking to such will lose apprentices, especially with all these Gen z.

I wonder what lesson you want to impart in a sound adult by telling her to kneel? If she's late with genuine reason, you let her be. If not genuine, she has to go home or something. Not canning nor kneeling abeg!

immortalcrown:
You are missing the point. As long as the offences are the same, let the punishment be the same.

If you condemn the punishment because the offender is married, condemn the same punishment when the offender is single.
He's not missing any point. Adults and kids have to be treated differently even when it comes to the same punishment. Married or not, there has to be different ways of treating adults regardless of their martial status.

Except the adult is mentally challenged, talking solves most of the problem. If they don't want to listen, you terminate the agreement and let them be ob their way. All those crude way of learning skills is fast fading away. Whoever still want to insist on such will lose apprentices!

What lesson do you want to impart by either canning and adult or asking them to kneel?

Fiscus105:
In other words the punishment meant for toddlers should also be given in same measurements for adults.

At age 40 your dad can still be slapping you, after all, he is your biological father.
Chop knuckle, I so much love your submission. I wonder why this way of learning still exists for adults. There's a reason that Adult and Special Education exists differently. It seems we don't know what canning and all these punishment do to ones psyche, both kids and adults alike.

Telling an adult to kneel or canning them sounds retarded what's that suppose to impart in them? Some even cane adults, like are you mad because one is learning under you as an adult?

It's because there was hardly structured way of learning these skills decades ago. So graduates and adults have no choice but to enroll with all those roadside shops. Those ones will no want to unload their frustration on the graduate (or if unmarried) on the married woman. But with structured institutes of all sizes springing across Nigeria now, many people will rather enroll there no matter how expensive to avoid all these kind of see finish.

Sorry about the threat, there's hardly anything "kingly" about him.

Also I feel it's high time Yoruba filmmakers start producing movies about other Yoruba Kings, Kingdoms and significant ancient personalities. There's TOO much movies about the Aladdin to a very sickening level.

The kingdom albeit the most popular, is only one of the Yoruba Kingdoms. Shine more light on others too, and your viewers would be glad and educated at the same time.
FamilyRe: My Wife Isn't Adding Any Value To My Life by Saladdin: 10:11pm On Apr 13
kenchop:
Bro, firstly things are generally very bad in the country, especially economically. So the issue of low savings monthly is actually something a bit general. As for your wife not adding any value to your life , especially economically, it's best you have a serious chat with her about it, if it persists, you can file for a divorce.

Time is too short to waste it in an unhealthy union.
While I agree with you that the economy is hard, I find it difficult to see how the union is unhealthy? You are going to the extent of telling him to divorce her?!!

Value must not always be quantified financially. We seem to underestimate the essential tasks she does in the house- cooking, cleaning, washing, school runs taking care of the children and attending to domestic issues. Even with machines, these tasks are not easy. Try paying for those services and see how a hole will be dug into your monthly income.

As long as a man married a good woman; chaste, loving and empathetic, his daily prayer for God to bless him with more-thsn-enough income to fully take care of the family regardless of the wife's work status, not sulking that she's not contributing to the home.

FoolishBoy419:
Well-said. One thing I have observed here in Nigeria is that the most prominent Sunni scholars are hesitant to talk about the war. I'm not sure why that is the case but I suspect it may be because the financial aid that comes from Saudi Arabia goes directly to the senior scholars. Those that draw the courage to criticize Iran always end up getting dragged by regular Arewa muslims who are overwhelmingly pro-Iran.

That said, the vast majority of Sunnis, especially the sufis within and outside Nigeria support Iran
This is totally on point. The salafists who have a skewered view of Islam take their marching orders from Riyadh. Should they go against it, the funds and free Hajj slots are gone.

Besides, the Nigerian case is what's also happening in Saudi. The regular citizens intensely dislike the MBS government, but have no choice, and they'll not mind if Iran take out the Clown Prince. That was why I was surprised when Itzlinda thought the Sunnis are confused on who to support. Their choice is CRYSTAL CLEAR and it's Iran and the axis.

The salafists scholars here and across the world are in a terrible fix. Because should they speak against Iran, then their scholarly career is done for and the average Arewan would no longer take them serious. Also should they speak for Iran then good bye to those free USDs from the m*rder*us Najd rulers in Riyadh.

Trust me, everyone I know and meet is rooting for Iran to win, and it's not about religion or Muslims alone, but every justice-loving person see it as a duty, this thread is an example. If there was a way to invade that d*t nation, many would not mind taking any kind of arms, and they'll also not mind being unalived as long as several gh*ul*s follow them to the afterlife.
