Queen Okwukwe Nwoko, The Wife Of Obi Agbogidi
Nwoko III, of Idumuje-Ugboko Kingdom Ejected
For Watching Blue Film Inside Palace
This is not the best of times for Queen, Okwukwe
Nwoko, who was allegedly ejected from the
palace over allegation of infidelity.
Okwukwe got married to His Royal Majesty, Obi
Agbogidi Nwoko III, of Idumuje-Ugboko Kingdom
in Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta
State in 2010 as the fourth wife but ended up
being the only wife to the 90-year-old monarch as
two of the previous wives were divorced while the
third died some years ago.
Trouble started three years ago for her when
members of the royal family, allegedly cham­
pioned by the Crown Prince, Nonso Nwoko
accused Okwukwe of infidelity and consequently
ejected her from the palace.
Members of the family contended that the
monarch was not responsible for the pregnancy
that resulted in the birth of a baby girl by
Okwukwe, after the alleged act of infidelity. The
girl is now three years old.
Although efforts to contact Prince Nonso failed, a
member of the royal family, Prince Obi Nwoko
who spoke with Sunday Sun reporter said
Okwukwe was “caught watching blue film” at the
palace, adding that her mind was so corrupt and,
therefore, not fit to be the wife of the king.
“She was sent out because of pregnancy from
outside. We have evidence to show for it. Many
issues were raised before she was sent out. She
was proved to have committed the offence before
we arrived at that decision. It was collectively
agreed that she be sent out. It was not a one-
man decision,” Prince Obi Nwoko said.
Prince Obi insisted that the last child of the king
is an 11- year old girl, Celine, and not the child
being paraded by the ejected queen, adding that
the royal household rejected the idea of going for
DNA test due to several unresolved issues.
But Okwukwe stoutly denied the allegations, and
maintained that she was unjustly ejected from the
palace to create room for the Crown Prince to
succeed his father while he is still alive but in
miserable condition due to lack of care.
Narrating her ordeal in the hands of her accusers,
Okwukwe said that one morning when she drove
into the palace grounds, she was told to leave the
palace for good, adding that efforts to address
perceived grievances were rebuffed.
Her words: “It was on October 1, 2012, when I
was told to leave the palace. The boys said that
Nonso Nwoko, first son of the Obi, the Crown
Prince, said I should leave the palace. Prince
Martins Nwoko, brother of the Obi, all joined
hands to force me out. They sent two boys to
drive away me from the palace. They threw away
my property. When my family members went to
the palace, they drove them all away. They said
they didn’t want to see any of us in the palace.
“I was in the fifth month of pregnancy then, and
ever since, I have not seen my husband and he
has not seen me. Even when I delivered, I sent a
message to the Obi that I had delivered, but one
of his brothers said the Obi and I do not have
any connection. They called the baby a bastard
and stressed that they don’t want a bastard in
the palace. They said they do not want any
woman to be close to the Obi. Now the Obi is
suffering, and there is nobody to help him, no
wife. After that the boys seized my car, went to
the market square, carried everything from my
store and padlocked the store.
“Later, the second daughter of the Obi, Uzor, said
they don’t want any woman near the palace
again, that their father has been ruling for a long
time and that anybody trying to send me back to
the palace would fail.
“They blocked the joint account I was using with
my husband. All the places we used to collect
money, they blocked everywhere, giving me no
access to any money again. They said nobody
would help me. My father is late, and so there is
nobody who can help me to fight the battle.
“My husband is now suffering. Any man that
comes to me, they would warn the man, saying
why are you going near Obi’s wife? But they are
not maintaining me as Obi’s wife. They seized my
car, my land and everything that is due to me in
the palace,” she alleged.
According to her, when she offered to have the
child undergo DNA test to ascertain the paternity
of the baby or she be allowed to take the
traditional oath to prove her innocence, her accus­
ers refused and insisted on the ejection based on
the allegation of infidelity.
She appealed to the Obi-in-Council, opinion
leaders and concerned stakeholders to intervene.
“I want to go back to the palace and take care of
my husband. The law is that as soon as you are
married to the Obi legally, you cannot marry
another person,” Okwukwe said. A community
source said that the relationship between the em­
battled queen and the monarch was cordial before
the recent development.
The source said: “She is a victim of other
people’s manipulation. They conspired against
her because of her influence in the community.
She has been organizing women in the area. And
so, people seeking power do not like her. Their
foothold was that when she was pregnant, His
Royal Majesty was too old to impregnate her and
as such they concluded that she got pregnant
outside the palace.”
According to the source, the Obi was not allowed
to even address the matter, alleging that those
around him were shielding him from other
members of the community while he was silently
suffering in the hands of his family members.

The crisis currently being witnessed in the Nigerian entertainment industry is taking a new turn as the day goes by and while some issues are being put to rest, some are beginning to come up.

Latest of such issues has been the allegation of song theft between Blackface and 2Baba and Wizkid.
Blackface who has been in the news lately over the allegation feels 2Baba whom they have been together from day one is not treating him fairly after making hits with some of his works.

Not being specific about some of the songs, during an interview with TVC morning programme, Your View, monitored by Nigeriafilms.com, where he was a celebrity guest, the singer stated that he does not want anything from 2Baba but just simple acknowledgment either from him or any other person using his works.

In his words, “2face feels I am someone you can trample upon. I am one person that have thought these guys how to be a good song writer and thought them the rudiments of music, yet they will just see one as nothing. I am not expecting anything from 2face just simple credits. Just like when Kennis music signed him, they did ‘African Queen’ and I was not given credit and that took them time.”

Blackface was later advised that rather than continually have issues with artistes over song theft, he should rather make it a business whereby he writes and give the likes of Omawumi to sing but he was not comfortable with the idea as he cleared the air that he is not a freelance writer.

“No. There are people we call freelance writer and I am not such a person. I have people I am writing for and then I know we have an agreement together so I can’t just write song for anybody,” he added.

okine4real:
If you want to accept, acept it from me, Nigerians are lazy. We like sitting down in the office with a Laptop in front of a desk, and you would be paid, 150k to 500k. Some are paid 35k. The fact is, with even 100k you can start a biz which would fetch you minimum of 300k monthly guaranteed am not kidding. Lots of people would say its not possible, the fact is business is secret. Lots of people got internet on the phone, what they do with it? They whatsapp, facebook, twitter etc. whereas you can discover lots of business online that you can start. by the time we Nigerians starts working hard, hustling we would not know hungry. Someone was saying Dangote's Uncle lend some money to start a business, humm let me show you kids from rich home, this kids can spend 6m on cars yet if you give them that same 6m to start a business, they would end up squandering the cash. The fact i always tell people is, money can not give you money, its knowledge that gives you money. Acquire knowledge and i guarantee you, wealth would chase you. Dont make the mistake,i never said acquire skill, you might have skill but got know knowledge. But with knowledge you are filled with skill, managerial skill etc.....

yes I concur 100% I like people that talk nothing but bitter truth like u just said.

HateU2:
Let's stop the imagination

lol u dey fear ni?

QueenValerie:
Op I see you.
You just want ta find a woman that 'll make you a house husband Continue... But have dinner ready when I get home

lol funny opinion u av dere

You are both married and have kids and working in different company, while the husband monthly salary is #80,000 and the wife is collecting #650,000 in an oil company. Then one of them have to stop working maybe the government just introduced new law that won't allow the two parents to work at the same time. Who should stop working is it the husband or wife?

Mother of late Nigerian football legend, Rashidi
Yekini has cried for help four years after the
demise of her son, Naij.com Sports can
exclusively report.
Yekini, who is Nigeria’s all-time highest goal
scorer died in Ibadan on May 4, 2012 at the age
of 48 and was interred the next day in his home
town in Irra, Oyun local government in Kwara
State.
” I don’t really know if he left any money behind,
because before he died, he had a problem in
which he would go to bank to withdraw money
and later burn the money,” the late enigma
mother, Sikiratu Yekini said.
Naij.com sports learnt that Sikiratu Yekini who is
the mother of Rashidi has been living from hands
to mouth since the death of her son. And, we set
out on a journey to Ijagbo, a town in Kwara State
where the octogenarian lives, and she exclusively
revealed her ordeal.
Naij.com sports: Are you truly the mother of
Rashidi Yekini?
Yes, I am his biological mother, and my son
started playing football since when he was in
primary three.
Naij.com sports: How have you been coping since
the death of your son as we heard he was the
bread winner of your family before he died?
Life has been very difficult for me since the death
of my son, because there was nobody to call or
go to for help. Rashidi was the glory of the
family, and all the family benefited from him
when he was alive.
Naij.com Sports: Did your son left anything
behind for the family?
I don’t really know if he left any money behind,
because before he died, he had a problem in
which he would go to bank to withdraw money
and later burn the money.
Naij.com Sports: What of his lawyer, when last
you heard from him?
I have not seen him since the eight-day
remembrance prayer of my son, and I pray I see
him before I die because he accused me that I
killed my son.
Naij.com Sports: Why did he accused you of
killing Rashidi?
He (Jubril Mohammed Olarenwaju) challenged me
on why I would take my son to where he would
be taken care of, and I asked him then whether
he was the one that helped me to give birth to
Rashidi and since then, I’ve not set my eyes on
him.
Naij.com Sports: Where did you take Rashidi to
before he died?
We took him to hospital, and we also tried
traditional help when the situation got worse at
the hospital.
Naij.com Sports: What about Rashidi’s siblings,
what are they doing to help you since their elder
brother is dead.
My other children are struggling to survive, and it
was even during the fight for survival that
Rashidi’s younger sister died and Akeem who is
the immediate younger brother to Yekini is into a
labouring work.
Naij.com Sports: What do you want?
I want Nigeria government to help me most
especially Akeem who’s the younger brother to
Rashidi. My son has served this country, and I
want the government and other people to come to
our aid because It would not be good for me to
die in this situation.
Yekini remains Nigeria’s all-time leading scorer
with 37 goals and he would ever be remembered
for scoring the first ever goal for the Super Eagles
at the 1994 World Cup against Bulgaria.
Meanwhile, Naij.com Sports reached out to the
lawyer of Late Rashidi Yekini, Jubril Mohammed
Olarenwaju who denied the accusations by saying
he had never accused Rashidi’s mother of killing
her son.
“I have never accused her of killing her son, and I
think someone must have misquoted me because
I never said so.”
“It is so sad what Rashidi’s mother is going
through, and I’m glad that all their family knows
that their son left nothing behind except the
house in Ibadan, and as I’m talking to you, we
are planning to lease out the house because
Rashidi’s second daughter has just been given
admission to study English at the University and
the money we will get from the house we want to
lease out should be able to help,” Olarenwaju
said.
Yekini played for the National team between 1984
and 1998, he scored 37 goals in 58 appearances.

If you are engaged and thinking of getting married then it’s time to grab a seat as we put you through some of the things you need to talk about before finally settling down. Planning a wedding means you and your partner probably already have a lot of things in common: friends, similar backgrounds, hobbies, interests, experiences, or values. You need to carefully think it through and consider these important conversations to create a solid foundation with your significant other.


1. FINANCES:
This is probably one of or the most important thing to talk about before getting married. Many intending couples find it difficult to discuss finances but it is totally important because they influence marriage on a daily basis, as well as in more long-term ways.
You need to sort out who pays what bills, budget, how much should be saved, joint or divided accounts, what excessive spending means and who earns more. Many couples gloss over this important topic and then regret it later.


2. CHILDREN:
This can be exciting to talk about but at the same time it can cause a lot of issues if ignored. You need to ask if the other party wants kids at some point, baby names, what kind of lifestyle you want for the kids, how you both will maintain a connection after the kids. Kids are a big blessing but they can also cause a relationship to drift apart if not handled properly.


3. SEX:
This needs to be carefully discussed especially if you haven’t been having sex before now. For some people, it’s easier to talk about sex with friends than with their salaries partners but as weird as it may seem, you just have to talk about what your sex life
would be like eventually. You also need to ensure your sexual needs are compatible, if your partner is affectionate enough and the level of affection you both can display in public.


4. DREAM HOME:
Getting married means moving in together hence there is no better topic to adress than the home you both will be living together as a couple. You may not start up in your dream home eventually but you need to sort out where you would live, if it’s convenient for the both of you, if the environment is
conducive enough to raise kids and all.


5. HEALTH ISSUES:
This is an equally important topic to discuss. Blood group, drug/alcohol abuse, mental health issues, medical background are some questions to consider asking before getting married .

This is what DASUKIGATE caused our soldiers of the Nigerian Armed Forces. Agony, Death, Life injuries, Bitterness and Imprisonment. Yet they still carry on with all of that. May God bless all our gallant soldiers of this nation, where the leaders only care for their pockets.

President Muhammadu Buhari has finally given in
to pressure from different quarters by replying the
statements made recently by American
Presidential Hopeful, Donald Trump concerning
Nigerians.


Speaking to journalists in the United Arab
Emirates, President Buhari had a simple reply to
Donald Trump.
"He says he will fursue all my fiful out of
America. No frovlem. I wish jim well at ze
forthcoming elections. But if he thinks he can
threaten my fiful zen I zont sink he understands
who I am and what I am capable of" . President
Buhari told newsmen.
"He should go and ask the pamily of Umaru
Dikko. he should ask ze Mossad about me. If he
threatens my fiful, how does he sink ze
Americans in Nigeria will be safe?"
The President went on to issue a warning to all
Americans resident in Nigeria, both on temporary
and permanent basis.


"I hofe all op you are fraying this man loses.
vecause ip he wins, all op you, from emvassy to
the streets, will be sent home. And don't ziscount
the frovavility that your flane might not land
exactly in America. Zat is all I can say por now".
Donald Trump could not be reached for
comments as at press time. However, Hilary
Clinton and Bernie Sanders, both Democratic
Hopefuls, and Dr. Ben Carson and Ted Cruz of
the GOP, have reached out to President Buhari,
reassuring him that if they win, none of Mr.
Trump's threats will come to fruition.

After years of lots of speculations about her
romantic affair with her manager, sultry female
singer in an exclusive chat with Nigeriafilms.com
revealed all her fans needs to know about the
over publicized love relationship.
According to her, yes she is having an affair with
her manager, Taiye Aliyu but on a different angle.
“Well, it has been years. But is this news still
flying around? Yes, I have a relationship with him;
a working relationship. He is my manager, he is
managing my music, not my personal life.’
When we gave the instance of Tiwa Savage who
vehemently denied dating her then Manager,
Teebilliz until their shocking marriage proposal
popped up, Yemi Alade, swiftly reminded
Nigeriafilms.com that her name is ‘Yemi’, so her
case should be different.
‘Well, my name is Yemi Alade, I don’t know what
tomorrow holds, but people can expect what they
want to expect though. I’m not holding back
anyone’s expectations,’ she boldly stated.
On the kind of man she would love to hook up
with, the ‘Mama Africa; crooner, said her ideal
man should have a good sense of humour,
prospective, God fearing and good pocket is an
added advantage.

1. Generate Business ideas:
The starting point for starting a business is for
you to generate a business idea. “All
achievements, all earned riches, have their
beginning in an idea” said Napoleon Hill . There
are many ways by which you can come up with
business ideas. You can get a business idea by
looking at existing business and do the same but
in a better way. You can generate business ideas
through brainstorming or focus group. Your
business ideas can be as a result of your work
experience or passion. It can even come as a
result of frustration. This should not surprise you.
That is why entrepreneurs are considered as
solution providers. You should generate as many
ideas as possible . “Nothing is more dangerous
than an idea when it is the only one you have.”
said Emile Chartier. Don’t worry if some of them
look foolish or absurd to you. Hear what Albert
Einstein said “If at first, the idea is not absurd,
then there is no hope for it.” Just ensure that you
document every idea that comes into your mind.


2. Evaluate your ideas:
Research your idea. See if there’s a demand. A
lot of people have great ideas, but they don’t
know if there’s a need for it. You also have to
research your competition – Magic Johnson.
Not all ideas are good ideas. A business idea is
good if it meets the needs of people and their
purchases would be large enough to sustain the
business. You start by asking people if they will
buy the product or service to determine whether
there will be a demand for the product or service.


3. Be Passionate:
“Passion is one great force that unleashes
creativity, because if you are passionate about
something, then you are more willing to take
more risks,” said Yo-Yo Ma . Donald Trump put it
in another word: “without passion you don’t have
energy, without energy you have nothing.
If you want to make most of your entrepreneurial
adventure, you’ve got to be passionate about
what you do. Let the thought of the business
consume you. Remember the story I shared
above. My productivity was dwindling because
the job was no longer interesting. Your business
is your life. If you do what you love, money will
flow to you.


4. Destroy your fear:
One of the reasons many people are yet to start
their own business is fear. That is, the fear of
unknown, the fear of inadequacies and ultimately
the fear of failure.
If you have ideas, you have the main asset you
need, and there isn’t any limit to what you can do
with your business and your life. Ideas are any
man’s greatest asset – Harvey S. Firestone. You
can never win a race you did not start. If you are
afraid to make a start, your greatness may never
emerge.


5. Be Disciplined:
“To turn really interesting ideas and fledgling
technologies into a company that can continue to
innovate for years, it requires a lot of disciplines,”
said Steve Jobs. As an entrepreneur, you must
learn how to be disciplined. Be ready to do things
that are necessary even though they are not
convenient.


6. Develop Business Plan:
If you fail to plan, you have planned to fail. There
is a need for you to develop a business plan. It is
true that you have evaluated your idea and
concluded that the idea is good. Nevertheless,
you still need to prepare a detailed business plan
for the business. You can learn how to prepare a
good business plan . This will save you some
stress.


7. Develop your skill:
There is no substitute for knowledge. To this day,
I read three newspapers a day. It is impossible to
read a paper without being exposed to ideas. And
ideas, more than money are the real currency for
success – Eli Broad.
From the SWOT analysis in your business plan,
you should be able to determine whether you
have the expertise and know how required to
exploit to make the business idea a success. If
you lack any of the essential skills, you should
develop yourself in such areas. Apart from the
specific skills that are directly related to your
business, there are other skills that all
entrepreneurs should possess.


8. Choose a location for your business:
The choice of location largely depends on the
type of business you do. There are some
businesses that you can operate from home. If
your business is home-based, you may not need
to start searching for a location for your
business. However, whether you operate from
home or elsewhere, you should ensure that you
comply with the zoning laws governing your area.
Learn about other factors you need to consider
before you choose your business location.


9. Determine your business legal structure:
The choice of the right legal structure for your
business is very important as it has both legal
and tax implications. Popular business legal
structures are sole proprietorship, partnership and
limited liability companies. Each business legal
structure has its advantages and disadvantages.
You need to consider various factors that affect
the choice of business legal structure
to know the one that best fits your business.


10. Register your business:
You need to choose a name for your business. If
you are finding it difficult to generate a business
name, you can use business name generators .
Some of them will not only suggest a business
name, they will help you check the availability of
the domain name. Your business only becomes
legal after you have registered the business
name.


11. Source for Finance:
The first source of finance that will be easily
accessible for you is your personal savings. If you
are confident about your business idea, you will
be willing to invest your personal money into it. If
you don’t have enough savings to start your
business, then you can consider other sources of
finance.


12. Obtain necessary licenses and permits:
There are some businesses which are regulated
by laws especially drugs and foods related
businesses. You need to apply and obtain
approval before you can be allowed to carry on
such business. Besides, you need to obtain
business licenses and permits from different
levels of government such as federal, state and
local government.


13. Register with Tax Authority:
One way you can easily run into problem is when
you refuse to comply with tax laws. Immediately
the registration of your business name is
completed, you need to register your business
with tax authority. The process will differ from
one country to another. Generally, you will obtain
(TIN). You will need to make reference to this
number every time you remit taxes to the tax
authority. It is also expected that you display
your Tax Identification Number (TIN) on your
invoices.


14. Open a bank account for the business:
One thing you need to do as early as possible is
to open a bank account for your business. You
should separate your personal expenses with
business expenses. If you ask your customers to
pay into your personal account, it indicates that
you don’t have a structure for your business. For
good and proper accountability, your business
should maintain its own bank account.


15. Proper accounting records:
You should be able to track all income and
expenses of your business. You can use simple
accounting software to keep your records. This
will make things easy for you and you will be able
to generate financial statements in order to
assess and measure the performance of your
business at any given time. If you can’t do this
by yourself, you can hire somebody to do the task
for you.


16. Hire the right staff:
You will need to hire other people to work with
you whether now or in the nearest future.
Otherwise, you will over-work yourself and
therefore suffer a burn-out. It is important you
hire somebody with skills that complements your
own. Also, you should familiarise yourself with
employment laws and the implications of hiring
to your business.


Conclusion
Now that you have taking pain to read how to
start a business, it is very important you start
taking the necessary steps. When you take one
step, the next step will become easier.

Lol

By saying Adam was tempted by Eve to eat the fruit, was it referring to Adam having sex with Eve?

The Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary
defines the word FRIEND as “someone who is not an enemy and who you can trust. A person who you know well and who you like a lot". Because people have different interests, backgrounds and orientations, research and experiences have shown that it is only when you marry your friend of the opposite sex that you
can enjoy your marriage.


This presupposes that you understand the vital criteria for picking such friend. For instance, the fact that someone gives you money every day is not enough qualification for the person to become your spouse. But if your marriage ceremony is more important to you than the marriage itself, you can ignore this counsel.


Although the internet has in recent years
provided a platform for people all over the world
to socialise more, the number of TRUE friends
has decreased. Having 1,000 facebook friends
does not necessarily translate into having true
friends. Many people desire to marry a true
friend.


The truth is that you can hardly enjoy your
marriage if your spouse is not your friend. To
confirm whether or not your spouse is your
friend, you need to answer the following
questions:


1. Am I Naked Before My Spouse?:
“The man and his wife were both naked and felt
no shame” (Genesis 2:25). Does your spouse
know your salary or have access to your source
of income? Do you embark on a building project
or any gigantic project without the knowledge of
your spouse? Do you sleep in a separate
bedroom? Do you cheat your spouse in financial
transactions? If you are not transparent (naked)
to your spouse, you are not a true friend of your
spouse.


2. Do I Tell My Spouse Bitter Truth About My
Spouse?: “Better is open rebuke than hidden
love. Wounds from a friend can be trusted but an enemy multiplies kisses” (Proverbs 27:5-6). You should be the only person that can tell your
spouse the truth about any issue involving the
person without any resultant quarrel.
If your spouse cannot trust your rebuke or
counsel, it is either that you have a problem of
unreliability or communication method or you
need the help of a marriage counsellor. If you
support or encourage sinful activities of your
spouse, you are not a true friend.


3. Do I Love My Spouse At All Times?: “A friend
loves at all times” (Proverbs 17:17) In your life
and marital journey. There are different times
and seasons (Ecclesiastes 3). For those who took
a marital vow at the altar in church, or registry,
you vowed “to love and to hold, for better for
worse, to love in plenty, in poverty, in good
health and sickness; to nurse and to honour you
according to the will of God till death do you
path.” Are you living up to this vow? Or you have forgotten about it? If your love for your spouse has dropped because of protracted illness, financial challenges, delayed childbirth, in-laws palava, gender of children or any other reason, you are not a true friend at all.


4. Am I Sexually Disciplined?: If you can commit
adultery for a simple reason that your spouse is
not close by, you are actually an enemy of your
spouse. You are even an enemy of God. “You
shall not commit adultery” (Exodus 20:14).


5. Do I Forgive Offences?: What is that sin that
cannot be forgiven? You might have asked your
spouse for sexual pleasure sometime and it was
refused. It is pardonable. Your spouse might have lied to you or cheated you financially. It is pardonable. Your spouse could have done series of wrongs and you have kept records of them and refused to forgive. If your spouse or anyone for that matter wrongs you and you hold it against the person, the implication is that you cannot kneel down to pray until you have settled the scores. Pray to which God? Jesus said: “For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins” (Matthew 6:14 NIV). If you cannot forgive your spouse offences almost before your spouse apologises, you are not a true friend to your spouse. You should be able to forgive even without apology because your spouse is a part of you.


6. Am I A Good Listener?: If you cannot be
patient enough to listen to your spouse’s
complaint or even suggestion, you are not a
good friend. If your spouse finds it difficult to
approach you for cordial discussions, requests or
complaints about you, your friendship has a
question mark.


7. Am I Willing To Sacrifice Time & Money When I Have Them?: “Wives, be subject to your husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the
church, his body, and is himself its Saviour. As
the church is subject to Christ, so let wives also
be subject in everything to their husbands.
Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the
church and gave himself up for her. Even so,
husbands should love their wives as their own
bodies. He who loves his wife, loves himself…
however, let each one of you love his wife as
himself and let the wife see that she respects her husband” (Ephesians 5:22-25, 28, 33). If you find it difficult to give money or time to your
spouse when you have them, you are not a true
friend. If you cannot give your spouse
information concerning your salary, income or
bank account, you are not a true friend. If you
cannot forget your handbag, cheque book or
ATM card with your spouse, you are not a true
friend. If you cannot assist your spouse with
domestic or official assignment where it is
possible, examine your ways. Do not always
expect a payback each time you give to your
spouse. Your spouse is a part of you (Genesis
2:23-24). Therefore, you are expected to work together for a common interest and not to pursue separate interests at the detriment of the relationship. A heart of true friendship cannot accommodate selfish interest.


8. Do I Really Care About My Spouse?: If you are hardly moved or feel concerned when your spouse has a problem, you are not a true friend.

9. Do I Tolerate Or Accommodate My Spouse’s Weakness(es)?: If you are looking for perfection in your spouse, you may not achieve the friendliness that your marriage requires for sustenance. Remember, you are not perfect.
If you cast your mind back sometimes, you
would recall that the weakness was visibly there
before you married your spouse. If you cannot
accommodate your spouse’s weakness, you are
not a true friend.


10. Do I Keep Confidential Issues Confidential?: If you expose confidential issues that involve your family to third parties that have no positive contribution to improving your marital relationship, you are not a true friend to your spouse.

KADUNA—Members of the Shiite Islamic
Movement of Nigeria has called for the
unconditional release of its leader, Sheikh
Ibraheem Yaqoub Zakzaky, his sister-in-law, and
other members incarcerated since last month as
well as release of corpses of those killed for
proper and befitting Islamic burial.
The group in a statement said since the December
2015 face-up with the Nigerian Army that the
government has not been able to justify atrocities
committed by the army that led to their members
arrests.
“We are still adamant in our request that the
Sheikh be set free unconditionally, because up to
now the government has not been able to justify
the unjustifiable atrocities committed by the army
that led to his arrest.”
The movement they say is relieved that Zakzaky
is still alive as revealed by members of the
contact committee set up by the National
Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, NSCIA, that
visited their leader where he is being held by the
federal government.
According to a member of the committee, Prof.
Dahiru Yahya, they met the Sheikh and his wife
Sister Zeenah Ibraheem in Abuja, who are all
recuperating from the bullet wounds they
sustained during the army’s attack on the Islamic
Movement in Zaria.
The group said they welcome the development as
“it is a step forward in quelling the anxiety of the
teeming millions of Muslims and non-Muslims
alike, all over the globe, in knowing at least the
whereabout of the Sheikh and the condition of his
health.”
The movement in the statement signed by the
Media President, Ibrahim Musa, said they have
been able to establish some figures that indicate
how gruesome the avoidable attack by the
Nigerian army has been.
“In our list there are about 730 people, men and
women, who are still missing, since that fateful
Saturday 12th December, 2015. These missing
people were either killed by the army or are in
detention, but whose where about is still unknown
and undisclosed.
“Also there are 220 brothers of the Islamic
movement in detention in Kaduna Central prison,
some of them with fatal gun wounds and burns.
The Islamic Movement said from reliable reports
that they have been able to confirm the detention
where some of their members are being held by
the Nigerian army in Kaduna, Bauchi and Abuja.
They said while they commend the NSCIA for its
effort to resolve this crisis initiated and executed
by the military, that an independent judicial
commission under the watchful eyes of the
international community be set up to unearth the
truth and the perpetrators of the Zaria incident of
last year.
“At the time of writing this statement, no single
corpse has been handed to the families of those
killed.”
