Why are you contradicting yourself?
You earlier said, if you listen to divoy lawyer you won't get married.

There is no contradiction there. A divorce lawyer only exists to dissolve marriages and share the assets using the law. Did you read my comment here? 👇

1. Availability Heuristic
This is when people judge how common or likely something is based on examples that easily come to mind.

Divorce lawyers constantly see failed marriages. Those cases are very vivid and memorable. Because that’s what they see all day, it feels like most marriages end badly, even though they are seeing a skewed sample. So their experience makes divorce seem far more common than it actually is.

2. Selection Bias
This happens when the data you’re looking at is not representative of the whole population.

Divorce lawyers only see couples who are divorcing. They never see the millions of couples who stay happily married. So their “dataset” is biased toward failure.

3. Negativity Bias
People tend to notice and remember negative outcomes more strongly than positive ones, which can further amplify the effect.

Rich single women do pay men for sex.

Some Zimbabwean guys here in SA are actually involved in commercial sex work, I once came across one documentary some years back of Zim guys making their livelihoods from commercial sex work.

The average Nigerian man is not trained to be a gigolo. It's a taboo. His fellow men will regard him as weak. They call him woman wrapper. The Nigerian man still wants the respect of conquer. That's how his ego is.

I will actually blame the opposition for this. They allowed Tinubu's government to let it have its way and who's going to be embarrassed for it? The country. Most of them are only interested in winning the election, not defending the country.

What money cannot buy, more money can buy, that is the agenda of those who grab it and snatch it. I like the times we are living in. Morality, honesty and integrity will become so expensive that the corrupt ones will come for your head because they can't imagine how you are not cheap like them to sell your position.

Lol and he had to say Epstein and 9/11 to make it trend.

I thought they were at war with America. So why are they scared of any operation on US soil that ties back to them?

Shouldn't they be happy to take credit that they successfully struck their enemy at home? 🤔

They should be happy to take credit for what they did. The US lied to the world and sorry is all they have to say for Iraq and Afghanistan. That is no honor.

Israel is planning to carry out a terrorist attack on U.S. soil so they can blame it all on Iran in an attempt to get the support of U.S. citizens. Today U.S. politicians passed the automatic involuntary draft registration act so now the second you turn 18 you are automatically… https://t.co/leUe6qhg2g pic.twitter.com/63KCvqCSwx

A woman has an unfair advantage over men. That's just how it is. Men need to grind and work hard and protect what they ground. That's how it is. The world will pity women and children first before men. That's unfortunately how the world is and women think it's a lie until they wear men's shoes and see how lonely the other side is. So what they think is entitlement or men's patriarchy or whatever they call it is survival of the fittest in a jungle world.

Men will continue to be seduced by beauty but great men will control their third leg from thinking for them. A man will work so hard to spend money on women.

Young man, the world doesn't care about you. Always work on yourself.

Someone tell Mr Momodu that Tinubu had switched to Solar so he will sleep well while you suffer from the shocks of grid collapse. Quite unfortunate but true. He doesn't even want to pretend like he's suffering like you all.

After GEJ lost his re-election bid, it was Wike and Fayose who picked up the party, financed it, and reorganised it. Where was Atiku then? He was in APC, went to hustle for the presidential ticket with Buhari. Even Makinde was in SDP at the time.
Wike and Fayose have invested in the PDP, which is why they cannot be taken for granted now.

Wike clearly remained influential and supportive of the party after 2015.
But the claim that Wike and Fayose “picked up and financed PDP” alone is exaggerated.


After Goodluck Jonathan lost the 2015 Nigerian presidential election, the Peoples Democratic Party became an opposition party. At that time Atiku Abubakar was not in PDP. He had left in 2014 to join the All Progressives Congress, where he contested the presidential primary but lost to Muhammadu Buhari. He remained in APC until November 2017, when he returned to the PDP.

It is also correct that Seyi Makinde was not in PDP in 2015. He contested the 2015 Oyo governorship election under the Social Democratic Party before later joining PDP and winning the governorship in 2019. However, the suggestion that only Nyesom Wike and Ayodele Fayose “picked up and financed the PDP” after 2015 leaves out several other PDP governors and leaders who were in the party during the opposition years. These included Ifeanyi Okowa (Delta), Udom Emmanuel (Akwa Ibom), Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), Darius Ishaku (Taraba), Ibrahim Dankwambo (Gombe), and later Samuel Ortom and Bukola Saraki who returned to PDP in 2018. Okowa would later go on to contest as VP with Atiku and we know why.

I don't regard these politicians especially the Amaechi and Tambuwall set. In fact, the ADC is just PDP and its betrayers who gave up their party through nPDP, including Atiku but you have to give it to them that they knew the party was compromised so rather than keep pretending about it, they went to setup ADC.

Mental colonization

People that have more compassion for their cats and dogs than you are the people you open a maga, sorry mega thread for. Who did to us

TallNigerian:
I know my comment may sound insensitive. But if they are not racist (like I heard they are), can they grant African men visa? I'm sure a lot of them wouldn't mind marrying these young widows and fathering these orphans.

Do not die in their war. What I find hypocritical about them and what I tell our people is how they want you to feel compassionate for their own issues but if the same thing happens to you, you can go die. They don't mind you dying. That's double standards.

The Feudal lords have succeeded in turning us into beggars in our own country. Shame........

Basic123:
And what is the big deal about that?
Is it not part of politics??
If peter becomes president today he will receibe more criticism that he and is followers are giving to Tinubu

You are the one making a big deal out of it.
Is my post true?
Is it factual?
Is it documented?
So why are you bringing Obi into it, assuming that I am Obidient when I was giving evidence of what Omokri once did and now it is happening to him on the other side?

@ topic Omokri can fool himself saying he will work for Nigeria but he is currently representing the President in any country he is posted to. He is the President in Mexico in our territorial land there. How interesting it is for him to get what he gave to Buhari at the Nigerian house

Africans eh

Before colonial rule and modern legal systems, most African societies did not have professional divorce lawyers. Marriage was usually considered a union between two families or clans rather than just two individuals, so conflicts and divorces were handled by the families themselves. When problems arose, elders from both sides, such as parents, uncles, or respected community leaders would meet to mediate. Their goal was usually reconciliation first, but if separation was necessary they would negotiate matters like the return of bridewealth, the care of children, and the division of household property.

In many traditional communities, these decisions were often overseen by village elders or chiefs rather than legal professionals. Because marriage linked extended families, divorce was treated as a community matter, and the authority to settle disputes rested with family councils and customary leaders instead of specialized lawyers.

Today, mediation is what ADRs will do. Dissolution is what the court will do. These were all before love came in and it emphasizes the point I made on another thread which I will quote below. The main reason mediation came first was to preserve social stability and family alliances. Marriage often involved exchanges such as bridewealth, shared labor, and cooperation between families, so a divorce could disrupt these arrangements and create tension between kin groups. Attempting reconciliation also reflected the broader cultural value placed on community harmony and collective responsibility, where problems were expected to be solved through dialogue and consensus before taking the more serious step of dissolving the marriage.

I submit before the panel of judges that Africa lost its own style by copying the Western values when it had its own inexpensive and connected way of marriage and dissolution of marriage.

SixSeven:
She is actually right. Love is blind. When you spend years in marriage, you'll know love is not enough. The idea that marriage must be based primarily on romantic love became strongly emphasized in the modern West. It wasn't our thing. And I'm not saying we as a people don't love, but there was a more important reason for marriage. Marriage wasn’t just between two individuals, it was between families. That's why they placed emphasis on other people checking it out for you, not you going on your own alone. All those romantic things we see in movies are fallacies.

Africa prioritizes structure before emotions and it's not just us, Asians have this too.

But you have business with reno omokiri ..you are a joke yourself

You are now trolling. Man protested when he was out of government, now that he is in government, they are doing the same thing against him. What goes around comes around.

I put the same prompt for Bible for Christians. 👇

Yes. The Bible also contains many passages telling Christians to be patient, loving, and peaceful toward people who do not share their faith. Here are some clear examples.

---

1. Love your enemies

> “But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.”
— Matthew 5:44

In this teaching from the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus Christ tells his followers not only to tolerate enemies but to actively love and pray for them.

---

2. Respond to evil with good

> “Do not repay anyone evil for evil… If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.”
— Romans 12:17–18

This verse encourages Christians to seek peace with all people, including those who oppose them.
---

3. Be gentle and respectful when explaining faith

> “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.”
— 1 Peter 3:15

Christians are instructed to discuss their beliefs respectfully, not aggressively.

---

4. Show kindness to everyone

> “Let your gentleness be evident to all.”
— Philippians 4:5

This verse encourages Christians to show gentleness toward all people, regardless of belief.
---

✅ Summary:
The Bible teaches Christians to respond to non-Christians—and even enemies—with:

Love
Patience
Gentleness
Peacefulness
These teachings are especially associated with the message of Jesus Christ in the New Testament.
---

If you'd like, I can also show verses where both the Bible and the Qur’an say very similar things about how believers should treat people of other religions. It’s actually quite interesting how often they overlap.


I didn't fact check any of the content but I asked it to show me the overlap.

rock003:
Can yoiu show me any Quran verse that says Muslims should be patient with non-Muslims

It's not about how well yoiu write; it's by how true are the things yoiu are writing!

I put your question into AI 👇

Yes. The Qur’an contains several verses that instruct Muslims to show patience, restraint, and good conduct toward people who do not share their faith. Here are a few clear examples.


---

1. Patience and forgiveness toward those who reject the faith

> “So be patient over what they say and avoid them with gracious avoidance.”
— Qur'an 73:10

This verse instructs the Prophet Muhammad to respond to insults or rejection with patience and dignified avoidance, not hostility.
---

2. Responding to ignorance peacefully

> “The servants of the Most Merciful are those who walk on the earth humbly, and when the ignorant address them harshly, they say: ‘Peace.’”
— Qur'an 25:63

This verse describes righteous believers as people who respond peacefully when confronted by ignorance or hostility.
---

3. Argue with people of other faiths in the best way

> “And do not argue with the People of the Scripture except in a way that is best…”
— Qur'an 29:46

This verse tells Muslims to engage respectfully and kindly in discussions with Jews and Christians.

---

4. Kindness and justice toward non-Muslims who are peaceful

> “Allah does not forbid you from being kind and just toward those who have not fought you because of religion nor driven you from your homes. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.”
— Qur'an 60:8

This verse explicitly allows and encourages kindness and fairness toward non-Muslims who are not hostile.
---

✅ Summary:
The Qur’an repeatedly encourages Muslims to show patience, humility, respectful dialogue, and fairness toward people of other beliefs, especially when they live peacefully together.
---

If you want, I can also show verses where the Qur’an specifically tells Muslims to tolerate insults or persecution from non-Muslims—those are even more explicit about patience.

Don't use yoiur shialow reasoning to judge Chriistiainity or Isleam. Go and study. Get knowledge about the truth and yoiu'll know better than the triash yoiu wrote above.

My dear correspondent,

It is often the case that matters of faith stir deep feeling in the hearts of many. Throughout my years limited life, I found that the most enduring principle in such discussions is respect. Respect for one another, and for the convictions people hold dear.

Knowledge, as you rightly suggest, is a noble pursuit. Yet wisdom lies not only in studying the beliefs of others, but also in speaking with civility, even when we disagree. A society that values understanding must allow room for dialogue without resorting to harsh words.

Both Christianity and Islam (largest religions in the world), like many traditions of faith, have inspired millions toward charity, patience, and devotion. When discussing them, it serves us well to approach the subject with curiosity rather than contempt, and dignity rather than delulu derision.

If one wishes to persuade others of the truth as one sees it, the most effective method is rarely anger as you have displayed, it is calm explanation, thoughtful study, and gracious conduct.

And so I would gently suggest sir, pursue knowledge diligently, express your convictions confidently, but always remember that courtesy is the companion of wisdom.

With measured regard,
I wish you the best in knowing better than the trash you read. ✍️

Woman, protect your orifice and don't give it anyhow to the world. Protect it. You are the mother of the earth, dear woman.

GB is right wing so they are like the Fox News of US. However, I suspect Aunty Kemi may take advantage of Tinubu's visit to UK to tackle him for her own advantage. They did it to Trump when he visited. I am also wondering what the British want since the President is visiting instead of the other way round. At least they won't have insult to give us like the King did when Buhari was always in their country. Tinubu decided to take his own Nigerian a la carte to France, Britain's rival.

This is funny because Omokri spent years protesting against the Nigerian government. Now he is on the other side, he can see how it feels.
