rexbuton: Please this topic wants to tear the family apart.
We are doing well, each of us earns almost 85k per year, I'm in IT, she's in healthcare, and we both work full-time. I am a Christian, I have never defaulted in tithing in the last 5 years. Not once. She says tithing is my personal 'problem'. She uses the word problem specifically. She doesn't pay tithe.
This is the present sharing agreement, I bring 70%, she brings 30%. This 70-30 covers the cost of living, groceries, nursery fees for our baby, and other bills. before this sharing, we both bring equal amounts for the house mortgage and the car. When her family needs money, she insists that we share it 50-50 based on her culture.
For my cybersecurity certifications, I pay from my less than 20%, but I have never complained. God has been faithful. My belief is that my tithe covers for the family. The good news is that I won a large sum of money from my savings, tens of thousands of dollars. I intend to pay tithe, and channel most of the money to my professional development so I can earn more. I don't think I deserve that money I won, that money was from God. She thinks otherwise.
What's your opinion?
Some people are so fool .ish that living in the diaspora does not make them have common sense
Which one is tithe?
Your wife is right .. That's your personal problem.
If my husband decides to start paying tithes anytime,he is in his own.
Hungrychicken: Good morning good people of Nairaland, I want to share my own experience with itching and bumps on my private part. I want to share this so that any one having similar issues would have a better understanding of the problem. Because, I also read a few posts from other people here too that helped me.
It started around mid February, I was having eczema on my back and little bit of itching on my penis. So, I got some anti-fungal and tropical drugs for the itching and eczema that had started to spread on my body. After a while the eczema cleared but the itching continued. I spent so much already on the itching so I just ignored it. Since I wasn’t sexually active.
After a month, it developed into bumps around my scrotum, gland and buttocks. This bumps would later itch like hell, and very sweet sensation, not painful no pus. Just sweet itchiness. The sweetest part of the itching was on the bumps.
I searched on Nairaland and started to hear similar stories and thought maybe it was scabies. I went to a Teaching hospital , and had a clinical diagnosis of scabies. Treated with ivec, benzoyl, etc but the itching and bumps were still not cleared.
I decided to go for a lab test 2 days ago, urine m/c/s. The result came out as Staph Aureus and yeast infection or so. The pharmacist says 25,000 naira for treatment, injection, and drugs with cream. I pray this get treated ones and for all.
This is for someone going through a similar problem. It might not be scabies or it could be. But First, get tested at the Laboratory to be sure. To avoid spending on whatnot.
I also need your thoughts in the comment section. And the test result interpretation. Thank you! 🙏🏽🙏🏽
A photo of a similar situation is below for better understanding. Also, my test result.
The condition is SCABIES. buy 5% Permethrin cream and apply for at least 1 month. It will clear.
That lab just wants to chop your money. Staphylococcus aureus in your private part will not make you sick It's a normal flora.
jeff1993: That's how they will be lying upandan upandan .....
Did u get preg the normal way?? .... why not mention IVF. You had to wait till u have exhausted all option before u thought of IVF. I wonder how long the husband has been waiting ehn.
If na me be the husband, sharp sharp I don impregnate woman for outside, or i don even adopt sef. Na me go com dey train pikin for old age?
Have you ever considered male factor infertility? It's the leading cause of subfertility among couples. That's why the man waited.. He knows he can't impregnate a woman naturally..He had to be calm and patient for IVF to work.
Most IVF are as a result of male factor infertility as there is no really cure to it
Here is how it probably went...she probably got some of her eggs stored years ago, and every now and then tried IVF with her hubby, and it worked after several rounds.
The world record is 69 years old , by one indian woman. (Yes, she was severely criticised for doing so).
(Just checked, she was 73.)
May not be her eggs...Most use egg donors..Legit. Congratulations to the family
Goodvibes007: Growing up in Lagos and now living in America
- I miss the sound of the Oro and the songs the adherents chant when they are passing in Agege or In Iju Ishaga (Ifako Ijaiye - Lagos) all the way to Iju Ajuwon/Alagbole/Akute in Ogun state.
- I miss the Egun festivals in Mushin especially the Egun Snow (little boy) decked in all white costume and riding on a horse with thousands of followers behind him.
- I miss the eyo festivals in Lagos Island.
I grew up in Iju ishaga..Had my primary and secondary education at 2 private schools around Fagba Bus stop.
I remember the sound of the Oro,as well. Remember how my father would warn me and my mum to stay indoors and never try to peep out at night.
Mubarakmahruf: Have you ever left a job within a month or less? What made you quit so quickly? Share your story and reasons below. Perhaps it was a mismatch in job expectations, a toxic work environment, or unforeseen personal circumstances. Your experience can offer valuable insights and help others navigate similar situations.
I have been here. Started a job on 3rd July , immediately salary was paid on August 5th..I disappeared. No be me them been wan kill. It was as wrong job
Negroid001: Nah. I know my sis, asides her excuse, we have this unwritten rule since we were young, we don't fall for each others friends.
Besides she don see the shege wey i don dish out to many exes. She's protecting her friend
Any decision she makes, it's up to her. My own is to watch out for her. Marriage no be achievement for my family. Erryone is career eccentric, no pressures
Your fellow man don insult your sister with the 30+ single scare...you are now quoting "marriage no be achievement for my family".. Na for your sister turn,abi but for other ladies,you would troll them. Continue to play
rinzaugustine: I don’t think he came back to life like they rumored earlier because it is medically impossible for a human being to lay at the bottom of the river ( before local marine divers rescued him) for 2 hour + and still be alive. When I saw him brought out rigor mortis had already set in as his hands and legs are already frozen to the original position he died in. The bigger issue then comes to the fact that in Nigeria they have minsters, commissioners , directors, heads etc from the federal to sometimes local government level who receive billions annually and are charged with overseeing the inland water ways because thousands of Nigerians commute through these routes daily. What do they do with the billions ? Making life jackets compulsory for such trips is what is obtainable in decent societies but in Nigeria you won’t even find them in office and when they are there would be drinking beer with plates of pepper soup and watching TV
I also believe the young man was already dead by the time he was out of the river. I think the mortician gave them the story of " he is still alive" in order to make them take the body to a hospital to be certified dead by a doctor which is the standard protocol. The level of ignorance in Nigeria is alarming. Glad I left when I did
RHINO123: oga u dy lie.... they pasted this stuff 2days ago at abuja campus.. uniport...... una dy lie sha... somtin wen everybody see
Where is the lie? The guy is a medical doctor ,based in Port Harcourt. He studied at UNIBEN and from Rivers State. He is very popular in UNIPORT.He is the admin of PH locum doctors forum
Sirianese: All these policemen and soldiers deserve to suffer they are the ones keeping innocent Nigerians under the evil reign of the politicians Any hint of protest against bad leadership and corruption, they bring out their guns and start shooting innocent people...it can never be well with them!
The only reasonable comment here so far. Nigerians dey pity police? Tueh.
Junesday: Please dear Daddy and Mommy, forgive me for bringing this here. am doing this because av run out of options and I don't have any other choice. My name is kelly, I gave birth to my boy Ayomide 2 years ago and since then it has been a rollercoaster of one event to another. My fiance abandoned us and I move in back with my parents taking care of my son all alone without any assistance even though he was always falling very sick all the time. I notice that he always feels discomfort when his trying to breath so I looked for money to take my son to the hospital. He was diagnosed with congenital heart defect, a hole in his heart, as the cause of his breathing problems. I've cried my eyes out but if only crying can solve problem. I can't stand to see my child in pain.
I've gone almost everywhere I can possibly go but no hope except for hospital. Doctors say that he will need to undergo surgery at UCH for N4.5million and my family with the help of some very kind hearted people have been able to raise part of N3 million. We have sold off almost everything valuable to us but it's not yet enough, that why I am appealing to well meaning Nigerians, if you're touched to save my son's life, please find it in your kind heart to extend a hand of help to him. Nothing is too small in the sight of God. Am calling kind hearted people, please help save my boys life. Please am also calling upon any NGO that can accept my sons condition please. May God almighty bless you immensely and wipe away sorrow from your eye. Amen.
Let the boy die and rest in peace. People that have money have not been able to manage this situation. When we preach against premarital se.x ,you people will think it's just cappings..where is your do called fiance? Mtcheeeeeeew
Paulpaulpaul: He lost his wife, mother of two in 2019. Getting engaged and planning to get married again is not a bad thing. If he had made it open, there might be backlashes because of our double standards in this generation.
Adedoyin, REST ON.
Ndi Men have nothing to benefit from marriage.
One would expect them to remain single without getting entangled with women again after losing the first wife...but NO! They can't. Clowns
Some of us didn't further education after secondary school. Some of us furthered to University. Some of us got married, yes, some of us are not married. Some of us are still strüggling with life. Some of us are settled. Some of us are still finding it dïfficult to eat two meals in a day. Some of us have traveled abroad. Some of us went back to the village. Some of us have seen hëll and still facing hëll. Some are also deàd. Don't forget, and some of us, the last time we sat in a class room was the last day we wrote or secondary school last exam paper.
In short, life is not good to everyone. Whenever you call or run into your old classmate, please, let them or the conversation be simple. That we are still alive, it's the thing to celebrate. Stop making others feel lèss of a value because you're married, engaged or have multiple degrees. Life is full of ups and downs. Life can turn around. You can stretch your hand and be a blessing to your fellow classmates, instead of möcking them simply because you're in a better position. Life is not prèdictable, be humble.❤️🍷

This disturbs those who pay attention to their classmates. As for me,the moment secondary school ended,classmates ended. After university,I towed same path.
I don't belong to any social media group comprising of my classmates at any level neither do I attend any of their events/functions.
I dey my dey.. Doing my things at my own pace and the pace my destiny allows me.
