Family › Re: I Own You & Can "Do" 10times A Day-Man Tells Wife After She Refused "To Do" (Vid by SmartyPants(m): 11:35am On Aug 26, 2022
Rozross:
On the flip a man will aggressively react if his woman use the OWN word on him. You can’t Own any human
Of course you can.

Your spouse is yours to have and to hold. If they arent yours why cry when they cheat?

What you're struggling with are the implications of ownership.

So we can say you dont totally own your spouse. You cannot exercise an absolute right over them. But they're yours indeed.

His imprisonment was unjust. Read before typing next time.
It wasn't unjust. He got into a verbal altercation with the judge and was held in contempt.

That's fairly regular procedure-wise. Now whether it was the correct decision is a matter of jidocial interpretation.

But those of us who know understand that the young man was likely just paying his dues for a political career ahead.

Men are different.

When i'm angry don't even say a word to me. It makes me angrier because i'm processing my feelings internally and you're interrupting my healing.

Once i'm over it, i will come and find your attention by myself.

This not a nice development I must say.
Our locally made footwears products which a number of people are still patronizing might have less patronage now since Nike has now officially opened their store here in Nigeria.
I actually don't know why people keep saying Nice development, nice development...Okay, employment opportunities might abound there but our locally made footwears will now have less patronage than before.
Way to go, Nigeria.
No one who can afford original Nike shoes (starting at $100) was ever buying those locally made shoes.

And if the locals want more patronage they must learn to compete with better quality.

Without a doubt, Lagos is far ahead of Nigeria.

Even in Abuja with much less traffic, we don't yet have its technology available.

I dont know why nigerian girls love guys that are taller than them.

They so much love the type that when they hug him, thier hairs will be below the guy's jaw or neck.

They look down on short men so much.

If u are broke and tall, some nigerian girls will consider u.

But if u are short, come broke join, hmmmmm,

So over to the girls,

Why una too like tall guys?
It's simple. They feel safer around taller men.

Private schools cannot be regulated in that way. Not when the government has fulfilled its obligation of providing public schools.

Government only regulate essential economic commodities that they cannot provide.

bjtinz:
Hmm. Just learning Shetima is a former banker. If that's case, then Reno makes ample sense here.

Bankers are known for many things, but shabby dressing is not one of them. The VP candidate knew what he was doing. .
So you think he diverted us from mockery of APC on account of Tinubu's absence?

Tinubu's absence would have been chalked down to his illness and frailty which Nigerians already know and hold against him.

The storm of public opinion over tinubus absence would have blown over fairly quickly.

Instead Nigerians now not only know that Tinubu is old and frail, they also believe shettima to be a total clown.


It was a complete own goal.

Go to school, ride your okada after.

Never ever allow what people will say prevent you from improving your life.

Be focused. Put women aside for now. Dont keep many friends.

Lolz this is the most fullish comment am seeing from a zombie today


Fact is no nation Produces everything for itself.. so even tho u produce and export, u must also import.. Rather u place high tariffs on the imports so that most people will upt for the locally made goods which is more cheaper

Another one is that u cant be a producing nation without constant power supply which am sure u know but ur irredeemable brain cant fathom it out..

Further more,untill recently, power production and generation is exclusively in the hands of the federal government and that Peter Obi has never held any federal position therefore it be ingenious of u to blame Peter Obi for the malaise in Nigeria
This is nonsense.

Is innoson not producing locally??

Those engaged in Aba are they not producing locally?

Is Dangote not producing locally?

There is absolutely no such excuse or reason why PO could not produce locally if he wanted to.

The man needs a round of applause for creating such tension, sensation, and unsettling both the media and social media spaces that they could not get him off their pages.

Why not talk and tell us "Go and verify" with boldness. We are tired of media coming to defend you old men all the time.
You can't be serious.

PO Obi will say go and verify but when they go and verify it's usually found to be false.

Back then, we had only 2 major political party which is APC & PDP

Many uninformed people demonized GEJ back then, called him all sort of names, ganged up against him and the result is what Nigerians have today

2023 election is just 6months, Nigerians need to wise up

Don't listen to any elders who want to mislead you for their personal interest, many of these elders are old & will not be there to suffer the consequence of bad leaders in years to come

Don't vote based on religion, ethnicity, or party but vote for the right candidate.

At state level, vote for the right candidate & not a must to vote for same party at national & state level.
Hindsight is always 20/20.

Jonathan ran an awful government where, it is still on record, that over 1 billion dollars meant for soldiers welfare in the fight against Boko haram was squandered on his campaign.

Let's not whitewash Jonathan here.

Jonathan was not fit to be president. But no one could have foreseen how much worse Buhari would be. Choosing Buhari over Jonathan in 2015 can not be held against anyone.

He didnt impersonate anyone.

He is a pastor with a Church somewhere. That you don't know his church does not mean he is not one.

And whether he is genuine or not is known by God and really not within your jurisdiction.

stanisbaratheon:
It is laughable to think that the same politicians looting your state is fighting for your interest. The idea of any politician fighting for his state dies the day that politician starts using states funds for frivolities. In a country where there are no accountability, no one is fighting for anybody's interest but their selfish interest.
Don't get the issues confused.

Wike may be fighting for Southern rights for selfish motives, or not. That is irrelevant. Fighting a man who wants to free you from slavery just because he has selfish reasons for doing it--perhaps to advance his career, is the very definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

i.e ridiculous.

I don't know what you mean by there's nothing like southern youths. A youth who is indigenous to any of the 3 southern geopolitical regions is a southern youth sir.

Of course, there is an element of Wike pushing his own interest but those interests are firmly aligned with our collective southern interests. There is nothing Wike has asked for that wouldn't have beefited the Sotuh.

WIKE asked that since Atiku bought presidential candidate, PDP chairman must resign and return to the south. Is this too much to ask?
Do you see why the South cannot be great?

From day one, Wike has been pushing southern interests but southern youths are here running him down.

But I don't blame them because they don't even understand the issues. Their own is to read nairaland headlines and type the next thing that comes to mind.

Now if she couldn't get him in the office which is where we know she has easy access to him, that would make it harder for her to follow through.

Bro, you didn't answer my questions ooh...

Where will the "solid system" come from if you don't fight corruption? Will the system fall from heaven?

When will "Nigeria mature to the point where fighting corruotion should be a priority"?

Is it that they CAN'T pay salaries or that they choose not to pay salaries?

Pls which system did Tinubu build that made Lagos better?
I did answer your questions.

1. I said you can build solid systems and be corrupt at the same time. I then gave you the example of Tinubu. Even Buhari, by facilitating this new electoral law has helped to build a stronger electoral system despite being a beneficiary of electoral fraud himself.

So to make it clearer, you can build strong systems in the presence of corruption exactly the same way you would in the presence of corruption, provided you do things in a step-by-step manner.

2. Maturity can be measured by the overall inclination of society. When the majority of Nigerians are no longer willing to engage in corrupt practices in order to get ahead, that would be a sign of maturity.

3. Tinubu built a lot in Lagos.

a. He strengthened the tax collection mechanism that is responsible for the famous IGR that we talk about in Lagos today;

b. The establishment of the Lagos State Trust Fund that is today responsible for the RSS model which is now widely seen as the most effective and disciplined police unit in Nigeria, along with specialized agencies like Lawma, Lastma, etc.

That is in addition to brilliant innovations like the Lekki Free Trade Zone.

The way you guys are desperate to have sex ehn gringrin

If you want to have sex with a hooker which is very risky, Omo use condom to avoid stories that touch or don't even have at all. You guys should have self control for once and focus on developing yourself to reach greater heights.

A word is enough for a wise person.

If Elon Musk, Mark, Jeff Bezos, Warren Buffet and co been reason sex like you, the world would have not been this developed.

Leave ashawo and focus on your goals, the ashawo is focusing on her goals, she's paid to have sex, and you, what do you achieve at the end of the meeting ?

One comes before the other.

Building solid systems and fighting corruption are not necessarily mutually inclusive.

That was what Tinubu did in Lagos. He built systems that made Lagos better while being corrupt.

The next governors after him should have built on that to gradually get to the point where corruption remains the only pressing issue.

You cannot say you want to prioritise corruption when the system is already so thoroughly corrupt. It has to be done jeje or the system will just frustrate you and you'll get nothing done.
