1st off report to their parents or if possible to a sibling of theirs! Notethat the day you inform your husband you have drawn a battle line between you and the family.... However if he continues you can tell your husband in a not too serious way.......that BIL of yours is mad... Nataliace: |
Wao my dear. You both are at fault but i give you 80% of the fault though. You should have begged your parents to reduce the list as this might put your soon to be formed family in economic jeopardy. You also could have fought for ur man or seem to fight for him before his eyes. If it were me i won't like it that my wife did not stand up for me in this, EXTORTION by her family. You also spoilt everything by saying the rubbish you said to your hubby. No be everything you carry for mind you go yarn! Way forward: Go to your man and apologize. Tell him you have learnt from what happened and that it would not happen again....tell..no..beg him to forgive you and that you transferring that love and loyalty you have for your family to him!

You have not heard of the following military men then: Surharto of Indonesia Eisenhower of America Thomas Sankara of Guinea Kagame of Rwanda Churchill General de Gaul of France And so many other fine army men who were marvelous rulers... May i also add Adolf Hitler who within 3 years of ruling Germany took it from the poorest country in the world at the time to one of riches and probably the richest economy in the World! hakeem4: |

I think a lot of people do not get what it is women are suppose to bring to the table. Bringing something to the table for a women does not mean anything monetary or physical. We should note that a men and women do bring different things to the table...while men bring stability, protection,money or financial provisions; a woman is required to bring different things that have nothing to do with what a man brings. A woman could bring to the table her femininity, support to the man and his mission, her cooperation with the man, her nurturing of the kids that would come, her submission to the man (while the man as the head of the household submits to God). Men on average do not care about a woman's degree or achievements or her money as women do not necessarily spend their monies on their men or give them access to it! |
Removing subsidies is not a bad idea per say. But you need to set the groundwork in place so that the masses do not suffer viz: Make your people brace themselves for its removal Get palliative ready Support Dangote refineries so a reasonable amount for pms is in place Provide monies to states and local governments to build their transport infrastructures... I think the end of 3024 would have been a better time for subsidies removal [quote author=LegendHero post=124507254]What he said sound good on paper, but in reality, it will be too counterproductive. If you do that to those foreign countries, other investors brining their money to your economy will be wary of doing that and investment into the country will reduce drastically. Even the said Nigerian companies might not be able to meet capacity. When we shut the border for food import, we thought our farmers and etc can ramp up production to increase supply internally but the reverse is the case. |
What stupid sets of thoughts. Who will now employ the thousands of direct employees and millions of indirect employees/benefactors from these foreign companies? Will his ideas not kill competition and make these sole players in their fields lazy to innovate. So the states should just be doling lands to any jack that says he is a farmer? And then give them 250k? What bullocks? All those attempting Guinness World records will now become farmers na.. And as for the diaspora voting. You guys should stop this nonsense less we start hearing that there are 5 million Nigerian diaspora in Niger Republic or 4 million in Mali or 6 million in Northern Cameroon or 7 million in Tchad etc...... nlfpmod: |

What is the world turning to? Very soon a 'REAL' will be non existent in many endeavors as men who transitioned to women are now dominating the feminine space. I am worried and surprised that women seem to be nonchalant about this invasion of their space! CNN — Rikkie Kollé became the first openly trans pageant contestant to win the title of Miss Netherlands on Saturday, and she will go on to represent her country in Miss Universe later this year. “I did it!” Kollé wrote in a joyous Instagram post after her win at the AFAS Theater in Leusden. “I made my community proud and showed it can be done,” she added in Dutch with an emoji of the light blue, light pink and white-striped trans flag. Australia’s Aboriginal LGBTQ community takes center stage at Sydney WorldPride Throughout the competition, which narrowed down hundreds of entrants to 10 finalists in April, Kollé has used her platform to promote a more inclusive vision of the pageant world, and to encourage others to feel inspired. “Miss Universe asked us to describe ourselves in one word,” Kollé shared in a video posted to her Instagram page last month. “The word I’m choosing is ‘victory,’ because as a little boy I conquered all the things that came through my path — and look at me now, standing here as a strong, empowering and confident trans woman.” “Never forget that we can do this together, you’re not alone on this planet. Never stop dreaming of being your ultimate and confident YOU!” she wrote in the accompanying caption. “Never let someone tell you what’s good for you, because the only thing that matters is that you become the best version of yourself.” Miss Universe 2022 R'Bonney Gabriel joined Rikkie Kollé onstage to celebrate her win. Kollé, who is 22 years old and from Breda, was crowned onstage by last year’s winner, Ona Moody. She was also presented her sash by the reigning Miss Universe, R’Bonney Gabriel. If Kollé wins Miss Universe, she will be the first trans women to wear its tiara. The pageant has allowed trans participants since 2012, and in 2018, Ángela Ponce from Spain became the pageant’s first out contestant, but she did not advance to the finals. Next month, activist Daniela Arroyo González will also look to make history as the first out trans woman to win Miss Universe Puerto Rico, and will advance to Miss Universe as well if crowned. This year, 90 women from around the world will compete in the 2023 pageant, according to its website. https://edition.cnn.com/style/miss-netherlands-pageant-rikkie-kolle/index.html

5. Diamond Studded Mercedes Dubai is famous for its extravagant vehicles, and the Mercedes-Benz is no exception. However, the wealthy residents of Dubai take it to the next level. Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, one of the richest people in the world, showed his status by covering his Mercedes with over 300,000 diamonds worth $4.8 million. This love for extravagance has led to Dubai becoming a global hub for luxury car dealerships and auctions, with some of the world’s rarest and most expensive cars being sold in the city. This display of wealth highlights the limitless boundaries of luxury and customization in Dubai. 6. Camel Racing Dubai offers visitors the unique experience of camel racing, which is a sport deeply ingrained in the culture of the United Arab Emirates. Preparing these animals for competing is a meticulous process that requires extensive training and specialized nutrition. The Al Marmoom racetrack in Dubai is the largest and features robot jockeys to ride the camels. These high-tech robots are equipped with walkie-talkies and GPS for advanced communication and control. The racing season is between October and April when the weather is cooler. So, even in the off-season, visitors can still witness this exciting and culturally significant sport in Dubai. 7. Gold Vending Machine Dubai has always been known for its extravagance and innovation, and the first-ever real gold vending machine is a testament to that. Although the dispenser itself is not made of precious metal, it dispenses small bars of it just like an ATM dispenses cash. In May 2010, this revolutionary contraption was inaugurated in Abu Dhabi, located in the Emirates Palace Hotel. The machine was developed in Germany and displays the current exchange rates in real time. It offers small bars of gold in denominations of one, five, and ten grams. This unique concept was an instant hit and attracted lots of attention from visitors within minutes of its opening. 8. Wide Tuned Cars Wealthy Dubai residents love to flaunt their riches and what better way than by customizing their vehicles? While most people opt for a paint job or a new engine, this city is known for its eccentricities, as evidenced by two modified Jeeps parked side by side. These massive vehicles are larger than life and require more than a lane to travel on roads. While they can carry eight passengers, four in the front and four in the back, their practicality is questionable. Additionally, with their size and appearance, they’re hard to miss in traffic. In a city that’s no stranger to outrageous displays of wealth, these Jeeps fit right in.

Dubai is truly a place like no other. I wonder when our own Naija shall have a semblance of such innovation and development! 1. Let’s Escape Traffic Dubai’s millionaires value their time and are willing to go to great lengths to avoid traffic congestion. It’s not uncommon to see helicopters whizzing through the air, transporting the wealthy from one location to another. This trend has given rise to charter companies, such as HeliDubai, which offer scenic tours and VIP transportation services. While cities like New York or Paris may have their share of helicopter traffic, it’s nothing compared to Dubai’s sky-high copter population. The sight of aircraft flying over the city is just one more example of the extravagance and luxury that permeate every aspect of life in Dubai. 2. Police Boats In addition to their impressive fleet of high-speed cars, the Dubai Police also rely on state-of-the-art boats to carry out their duties. Among these is a remarkable $400K super boat gifted to them by the Crown Prince of Dubai, Sheikh Hamdan. With a design reminiscent of a Lamborghini and boasting 700 horsepower, this lightweight carbon fiber vessel is one of the fastest water crafts in the world. It enables officers to quickly and effectively patrol Dubai’s coastline, and carry out operations at sea. This impressive vessel is just one example of the Dubai Police’s commitment to utilizing the latest technology to maintain safety and security in the city. 3. Limo Ambulance Dubai’s ambulances have a unique feature that sets them apart from the rest of the world – limousine-style emergency vehicles. Known as “Awnak,” these vehicles are equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment and provide a more comfortable and luxurious ride for patients. However, they are only available for patients transferring between medical facilities and cannot be used for emergency response. Awnak is a part of Dubai’s efforts to provide the best medical services to its citizens and visitors. While the idea of needing an ambulance may not be pleasant, the availability of such a service can bring peace of mind to those who need it. 4. Gold Plated Jeep[/b] The wealthy residents of Dubai are known for their extravagant tastes and love of flashy vehicles. And what better way to flaunt your wealth than with a car that’s covered in gold? One Jeep owner decided to take it to the next level by getting his Grand Cherokee plated in 24-karat gold. It’s a surefire way to turn heads and make a statement. But the cost of such an extravagant upgrade doesn’t come cheap – with a price tag of around $2 million. It’s safe to say that the owner of this gold-plated Jeep is living a high life in Dubai.

I always knew there was something fishy about the Rivers State Elections. So upon all his shenanigans Wike no fit even manipulate properly an election in his State? By the way the picture of the last man below is Moses Ekpa and not the so called doctor Ariaga! President-elect Bola Tinubu is facing legal challenges ahead of his inauguration on 29 May A BBC investigation has found evidence suggesting some results from Nigeria's presidential election may have been manipulated. The winner Bola Tinubu is due to be inaugurated on 29 May but the opposition is challenging this. The BBC has uncovered significant anomalies in Rivers state, a key battleground, although not sufficient to change the overall national outcome of the election, which took place in February. There are also questions over the identity of an election official who read out some of the unexplained results. How votes are counted in Nigeria On 25 February, Nigerians cast their votes at thousands of polling stations across the country. At each polling station, the votes for the party of each candidate were publicly announced and the results sheets taken for collation first at the ward level, then at local government (LGA) centres. An election official from each LGA then travelled to the state capital, where these results were officially declared. For the first time in a Nigerian election, photographs of the polling station results sheets were published online by the electoral commission. This made it possible to add up all the polling station sheets and to compare them with the results declared at the state level. What we found in Rivers state We added up the voting tally sheets from over 6,000 polling stations in Rivers state, where many of the opposition complaints had been made. While the official result in this state gave a clear majority to Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), our tally suggested that Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) had actually received most votes in the state by a wide margin. We found an increase of just over 106,000 in Mr Tinubu's vote in the official declaration when compared with our polling station tally - almost doubling his total in the state. In contrast, Mr Obi's vote had fallen by over 50,000. It's important to make clear that although we searched through the election website for every single one of the 6,866 polling stations in Rivers state, we were not able to obtain results from all of them. Some were incorrectly uploaded, others were missing, even after a month from the date of polling. For about 5% of polling stations, the photos of tally sheets were too blurred for us to read. It's reasonable to assume that the official count would have included these as they would have had the original documents. In another 17%, there were no results at all. Many of these would have been places where no voting took place due to security issues or the non-arrival of voting materials. Others had technical problems preventing officials uploading the documents. So there clearly would have been more polling stations included in the final official results that weren't included in the BBC investigation. However, these additional tally sheets would have increased the totals for each party, not decreased them. And what we found was that the votes for Peter Obi's Labour Party had decreased sharply in Rivers state. So how can the sharp fall in votes for Peter Obi - in the official result - be explained? Peter Obi has contested the outcome of the vote in Rivers state Where were the biggest discrepancies? Two areas stood out. The first was the Oyigbo local government area, where we found: The vote for Bola Tinubu was six times larger in the officially announced results compared with the BBC's polling station count Peter Obi's votes had been cut in half The second local government area where we found major discrepancies was in nearby Obio/Akpor: The official result for Mr Tinubu was 80,239 votes, but we counted just 17,293 votes from polling station talliesThe count for Mr Obi was announced officially as just 3,829 votes, but the BBC counted 74,033 votes for him on the tally sheets So how did these differences occur? As explained earlier, all the polling station sheets are collated at local government (LGA) headquarters. We found an official election document with these collated votes for the Oyigbo area, signed by an election official and some of the party agents. The results for Oyigbo (with the two largest parties highlighted) Several different photographs had been taken of it and uploaded on social media accounts. The numbers in this document closely matched our own tallies for the two leading candidates (Obi and Tinubu). This would have been one of the 23 collation sheets from LGAs in Rivers state taken to the state capital, Port Harcourt, for the official declaration. Broadcast live on television on 27 February, in front of a bank of microphones, Oyigbo election official, Dr Dickson Ariaga, announced his name and that he worked for the Federal College of Education in Omoku. On the recording, the word "Omoku" is indistinct, but there is only one Federal College of Education in Rivers state. Dr Ariaga then read out the results for each party in alphabetical order, including for all the smaller parties. They all matched those on the collation sheet the BBC had obtained. But when he reached Mr Tinubu's APC, instead of saying 2,731 as written on our photograph of the sheet, he read out "16,630". Then for Mr Obi's party (LP) the figure changed again - instead of the 22,289 seen on the sheet, he announced "10,784", more than halving his vote. The mystery surrounding Dickson Ariaga We asked the electoral commission if we could speak to Dr Ariaga, but they would not give us his details or reach out to him for us. We spoke to the election official seated next to Dr Ariaga, but she told us she wasn't authorised to talk to the press. So we sent a reporter to the Federal College of Education in Omoku, about two hours drive north of Port Harcourt, where he'd said he worked when introducing himself. The Deputy Provost Moses Ekpa told the BBC: "From our records, both from our payroll and from our human resources, there is no such a name in our system and we don't know such a person." Moses Ekpa says the Federal College of Education in Omoku has never heard of Dr Ariaga We tried tracking him down on social media and eventually came across another Facebook account for someone in Port Harcourt, whose profile details had the name Dickson Ariaga. When we compared an image from this account to the television pictures of Dr Ariaga using Amazon Rekognition software, we achieved a match of 97.2%, indicating a very high probability they're the same man. Dr Ariaga did not respond to messages sent by us to this account. By reaching out to his Facebook friends we did finally manage to speak to a man who said he was a relative, who was at first willing to help us but then didn't return our calls. What have the authorities said? We put these findings to Nigeria's Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec). Johnson Sinikiem, Inec's regional spokesman in Port Harcourt, told us that due to a "gross shortage of time and personnel" they had needed to take on some people without verifying their identity documents. https://www.bbc.com/news/65163713

Guy i commend your decision to move. If e no di move for one side u can always move! Abuja is a nice place to move as its not as congested as Lagos. However be very careful as you organize your relocation. You go 1st by urself and enquire greatly on the opportunities available. Dont start by uprooting ur family to the unknown. What business are you into now? Check it now and see if it's a viable option for you if not look for something else. You can be there by yourself testing the water(your spouse/family can pay you visit from time to time though). Nota bene: be vigilant of yahoo boys or wayo peoples in this forum frank33: |
