Africans are clowns.

You will continue courting 'FOREIGN INVESTMENT' as if it is a good thing. You will not ask yourself what is good about it.
Ok it 'creates jobs', but the minute one kpim happens, they pack up and leave. Imagine creating useless jobs that disappear when the economy is bad. Mind you, when the economy is bad is when you need jobs. So now you have a situation where when an economic problem is supposed to be a 2, it immediately becomes a 10 because you're depending on people who are ready to run when any sign of stress appears.

Please. Let them leave, and let us stop trying to pretend that 'multinationals' are worthwhile assets to ANY economy.
Please delete this, it shows you are too shallow

No veto from Russia and china to tell you all these nations are only playing lip service to Gaza and want hamas decimated in reality
Believe it or not China and Russia can never be friends. China wants to be No1 or at least No2 but they cannot get that without displacing Russia. Now you have India challenging the China economy with fibre in its body. Did you know TikTok and 10 other Chinese apps are banned in India? Infact India has started producing the iPhone and are subtly telling America that they should dump China and focus on them. There is no love anywhere

This is a new year. Atleast make lies reduce. Startup... #300khuh Maybe they want to use you guys to test waters. An established coy was paying you #170k and a startup wants to pay you double for doing the same or lesser thing? The startup will definitely not last
It is normal for startups and new entrants to pay higher, because they need to attract experienced talents. Established coys trained you hence there is a tendency for you to earn lower. That is why people jump ship

Its men that marry prostitutes they met at bars, went to the village to find wife they have no emotional connection with or date half naked women that usually talk about their wives in this manner, they don’t regard the women they are with
I believe the fault is from the women that do not tell the boys their place. My mum will tell me do not take the goat leg in the pot it is reserved for my darling (her husband). Back then when my sisters' will cook and there is chaos cheesy, she will just walk into the kitchen and secures her husband portion before the hyenas will devour the pot. My mum made it clear that her husband is a no go area hence, we the children know our place. She made us understand that her priority is first to husband then us the kids, and we understood that.

Heartless girls. Imagine struggling with ur mom and a girl who comes from nowhere trying to control what your own mother does with your money. They even go as far as stopping your mom from living with you in the same house.

Stop reasoning like a kid, your wife is above your mum in both hierarchy and priority. There is only one person that can love my mum 100% and that is my Dad. I love and respect my mom but she is not equal to my wife, because she has a husband.

it is not the wife, we should understand politics. Look if you are in power your closest associates are your ring and they help you run the Govt. When you are very sick, these guys will not want you to step away. They will put pressure on your wife to ensure that you don't leave power because once you are no more, they took will leave power. This happens everywhere and the political class understands this. If a Governor makes you Chief of staff today and the governor becomes ill, will you agree that he should step down? When you are already seeing the future?

It is wrong to keep holding on to power while you are weak. Directing the affairs of a state goes beyond using 'senses' alone, that's why the constitution created the post of a deputy to fill that vacuum.

Unfortunately, in this part of the world, no respect for constitution, our health and well being. Always seeking power for selfish reasons. From Yar adua's wife, now Betty....who's next
Even if you want to handover your inner ring will not agree. Imagine you are a nobody and your closest pal becomes the Governor and you are his chief of staff? Now imagine that your pally is sick and wants to handover, bros you no agree. The inner associates knows that the next person will push them away hence they pressure the wife to one corner. Look they might refuse to make any announcement that he is stepping down and cling on as much as possible. For some of Aketi's associates that is the closest they will ever get to the corridors of power.

[quote author=wwwtortoise post=127641574]Good points you made.
People in an abusive/toxic relationship suffer worse fate than HBP and dementia.
Albeit, for clarity sake I’ll like to understand your standpoint on this without mincing words.
Are you a proponent of being in a relationship even when the union is detrimental to your overall wellbeing?[/quote]Definitely people in toxic relationships suffer worse fate, however, we are not comparing people in toxic relationships and lonely people. Furthermore, if we look at the distribution for people in a relationship, those in toxic relationships are at the extreme
CelebritiesRe: Why I Am Single At 41 - Ini Edo (Video) by SSpeter(m): 10:06pm On Dec 26, 2023
[quote author=wwwtortoise post=127640474]Fair enough.
I quite understand that humans are social beings hence the craving for companionship and all. However, it boils down to individual peculiarities as I outlined earlier.

There’re many boredom/loneliness coping mechanisms people engage in that doesn’t involve emotionally bonding with another human. Could be with pets, booze, drugs, travel etc.

Bottom line is - better to be alone with peace of mind than be in a toxic/unhealthy union with someone else.[/quote]It is toxic to be lonely, data on health science shows that you are very much likely to suffer from dementia early also you are more susceptible to HBP and other age related memory loss. It takes great effort to achieve equilibrium when you are lonely. You can get solace in your pet or other addiction but these are not substitute for humans...talk therapy is becoming a gold mine in developed countries and recently in health care business consulting (where I have done a bit of work lately) mental health is pushing a lot of young people out of work...the number cause of a mental health challenge is loneliness

[quote author=wwwtortoise post=127637469]So who exactly set this benchmark of 45?
Please provide valid/verifiable data to back this your claim.

So you know, individual preferences differ.
Social status, belief systems, exposure, life experiences, . . . make it very difficult to generalize.[/quote]My data is from clinical psychology, I am sorry I cannot get the link at the moment, it was a Canadian article on mental health written by Jordan Peterson, you see after 45 there is a high tendency that your former colleagues and friends are either married or are in one form of relationship or another. Furthermore, at 45 our bodies begin to go through another biological phase and we tend to crave companionship. It is not about wealth or not, when I worked in Nigeria I knew very few people who were over 45, had loads of money who were not married but they used their jobs as their companion but at that point you are already close to being an executive with about 60days of holiday, paid vacations but you still see them come around the office. Loneliness at that age is depressing, you cannot shake it off with clubbing or partying unless you have addictions ( drugs , alcohol or womanizing) which are not generally acceptable characters. Even TaTa of India that has never been married said family is what he misses most and he found companionship with his dog. It is what it is

Let’s face it; women and relationships expectations are changing.

Women are now more independent and it’s not only about them having money. I think it’s a battle of the sexes thing.

And when they can cater for themselves, forget abourit!
Stop being delusional wether male or female, we are social beings and if you have no partner after 45, it begins to get lonely, incase you don't know it has nothing to do with money.

Always thought she is married . Well to each their own . She should keep searching until she gets a man who will “earn “ her respect !

I hate that statement ! It shows how entitled and self delusional people are . WHO the hell are those that claim people have to earn their respect ?! In life , respect people first and sustain it until they give you reasons to disrespect them . It is pure toxic behavior to think people have to do things to or for you before you respect them . It is stupid behavior

Y’all should stop these women-bashing comments and allow people do what they deem suitable for themselves. Hypocrites![/quote]No matter the peace of mind, after 45 it begins to get lonely. This happens to both black and white and that is why romance scam will never end, people are lonely and wouldn't mind paying a scammer for the fake attention. I have read interviews where the women said they had an inkling it was a scam but they were just too lonely and wanted a companion.

To an extent true. But some things are best left unsaid because of the ripple effects and likelihood of it being misconstrued by myopic minds. The value of it being left unsaid far outweighs any positive that comes from it being said. Reason being that some chronic adulterers will leverage on such statements to justify their adultery
My Grand mother of blessed memory said when she gave birth back then, her husband would tell her to go and call another lady (his babe) and both of them would go to my grand dad's room for a good time and she would even prepare fish soup for both of them, cause immediately after pregnancy she is unable to copulate.

A man that cheat don't completely love his woman, true love brings complete satisfaction with no a bit of distraction



I don't agree with his second point, a lady can love you and still cheat, a lady you deprive of your attention, audience, romance can cheat on you not because she doesn't love you but because she lack the aforementioned
Never! Unless she is a prostitute, a lady must first like you before you both can have consensual sex. A man don't need to see your face, just present the ass and boobs and he is good. Why do ladies get angry when they have sex with a guy and the guy tries to give them money? That is because only a female prostitute can have sex without feelings. Never a marry a prostitute
