Just imagine!

If only our textile industry can thrive again! What happened to Ajaokuta steel? Where has michelin and Dunlop of those days gone to? These are real sectors that boost the economy!
In most civilised societies you hardly see aa traffic warden when there are traffic lights!
Indeed there was a country! Sigh

Brunch today... brown rice, turkey, brownbread and avocado. washed down with beetroot+apple+carrot fresh juice

My heart is completely broken for this man!!!

This is soooooo stereotypical and the type of mentality that keeps our women in bondage and toxic relationships all in the name of being a MRS and holding tight unto garbage!!!
Husbands are not scarce only the good ones are so also Good WOMEN are also scarce if not scarcer if there is a word like that!!!

BTW I have family/friends guys for that matter who are seriously searching for the good women and are praying+fasting day and night so not only the ladies P-L-E-A-S-E

People should learn to live their lives at their utmost best/terms. Develop yourself, add value to humanity, be the best human being you can be as at the end of it all personl joy/fulfilment is the ultimate..........

Such a great prayer from a desperate old cargo spinster...
NB...
Hold your fiance tight with closed marking so as not to fall victim of such prayer....

Hmmmmmmm

Yes....but a poor man and rich man have one thing in common....they can sleep in just one bed at the end of the day! [/quote]Heaven sure pass! Accept Jesus Christ today to live in your heavely mansions made with gold, decorated with diamonds where robbers cannot break into. John10vs10

@ Op please do another list and make her number one on that list please bear with madam it could be the hormones...

Shallom everyone!

The reasons they ve given me so far is that benin is far and that we dont have the same culture-eg marriage and burial rites,language etc.
Let me not say this points are not valid but do they supercede my happiness?
Ok,if i let this guy go and marry an Anambra man and we live outside Nigeria,how often will they be seeing me? At times,the in-laws relationship you think might be there if you marry from the same state may only exist in passing. I just tire really. My people is just being mean without at least seeing this guy.

I was partially in your shoes 4 years ago but difference being that my parents only voiced their opinion adjudged from preconceived prejudice about his tribe(Edo guy too). Trust me before I introduced him to my people I had the mind set that I was only respectfully informing them not really seeking their approval. Reasons being that I would be the one to live with the man and had made up of my mind that I'd rather live with my mistake than someone else's. If there is no Godly reason for objection to a choice of partner I think whatever reason is null and void. Today my hubby is the best son inlaw in the family! I'm not says parental opinion/blessing is not important but when it is being withdrawn under unfounded UnGodly reasons after trying your best to make them see reasons to accept your choiceplease run to God for blessings and carry on with marriage/life! Part of being an adult is the ability to make decisions and live with the consequences...
I'm sure you will not forgive yourself if you give up on this good man and marry someone else God forbid along the line things go sour...our parents will not be there forever and they have lived their own lives. MY OPINION
I wish you wisdom in your decision.

Amazing darkness can never rule over the light of God! Glory glory glory!

Merry Christmas wonderful mamas and papas

Anytime he decides to move to UCH, ibadan.. Am ready to go join them there.. Am ideal @d moment, on holiday frm school.

God bless u real good!

Too many hands spoil the broth, the reason we really need a team on ground especially the people within his location The guy is already worn out from incessant calls, at this point the best is to wait it out to see the Eruwa doctor regardless. Tomorrow morning first thing he should be on his way to UCH or after seeing the Eruwa doctor today if he has the stamina. In addition to the N700k,i just did N100k they can use to chatter an ambulance from there to UCH! Still few UCH is best option now while arrangement is being made to fly him out. Jesus take the wheel!!

Pls this young man should be on his way already to UCH. Pls those with UCH contacts should help press buttons/provide them with direct contacts in UCH so he can be attended to without having to get refferal from LUTH. In fact, they can start afresh from UCH while plans are being made to move him abroad if need be. Off to redeem my pledge!

Hello fruitful mamas! It's been a while I visited here and I congratulate/celebrate with all d mum's God has visited. I want to also encourage as many people as there are in the waiting room, don't lose hope,dont give up! Do everything positively humanly possible except giving up!
If God can do it for my former boss at the age of 45yrs with fibroids and so many other issues she was diagnosed with. Why not us?
It is well even in the well...

Wow just seeing the post now! And to think I recommended that open a NL charity section a few weeks back and it was turned into a clash of the titans!
@OP: it is well with you! Like someone said pls do not mention pples real names for security reasons when you get the alerts/username maybe to satisfy ur conscience that u appreciate their help!I will send u N100k by Tuesday. I also think accountability is necessary cos u might need more funds and potential helpers need to be comfortable they are not just throwing money into a bottomless pit. I remember the case of Folake/Menek there was regular update on financials which helped put things more in perspective especially for potential helpers. Pls send email to my address chinedu.pavina@gmail.com with ur medical results and pictures as I intend to appeal to other friends as colleagues on ur behalf!
You should also consider another serious govt med facility like UCH Ibadan or Lasuth, the experiences/sad tales I've heard abt LUTH is nothing to write home about. And much more going to another clinic provides insight for 2nd opinion, I was diagnosed differently in Nigeria recently n when I travelled abroad to seek 2nd opinion I got a diff result n responding very well to my treatment!
This is the more reason I tell fellow Nigerians to look beyond party/tribal/religious affiliations in selecting the right leaders!
Sorry 4 d long post, wish u well brother...

Fhemmmy:
Thanks for your business . . . .

Hi Fhemmy, pls I need the cost of getting 2012 Rav4 Limited edition. Budget is N4m to N4.5m max N5M(full option). If you have any readily on ground for sale that's awesome, if pre-order how long would it take as the car is needed urgently like yesterday.
Thanks and anticipation your prompt feedback!

Wow! I didn't know this post has generated a lot of debate thus far. I think most of us are saying the same thing but from different perspectives. Akinsazeez more like xrays my thought ie not saying it should be restricted to TEHN executives rather they could contribute their quota by verifying cases at the end of day it's an open field both verified/un verified cases which individual helper/s can carry out themselves.
@Seun yes thou shall help thy neighbours at thy land/internet inclusive. Someone like me enjoys the anonymity the internet affords and that does not mean I do not help people around me! At the end of the day your site your decision.
Whatever be the case, PEACE to all!!

@r231 sorry I can't see the mail you sent to me as I can't get around how email notification here works in terms of how to access it worse still I can't remember the email account. If you can put your message on this thread I can assure you I will read/act on it.
Thanks

@OP
This is coming from a big Aunty ie been there done that I don't know your level in school but I feel the stage at which you are is the stage to develop and polish your social skills. There's nothing wrong with striking a conversation with this guy, in fact you might discover in due course he may not be worth the crush depending on what personality makeup appeals you! Now, you can start with borrowing his lecture note or complementing whatever he's wearing that captures your fancy from there a conversation starts... Trust me,when you finally get into the real world you will find yourself in situations where you have to socialize/interact with wider audience regardless and the ability to swiftly engage has a way of making advance in your career.
The issue is that the context at which people are interpreting your situation is as though you are looking for a date/rship with the guy which may NOT be true! Ain't nothing wrong with making great friends opposite sex or not. There are many people you'd meet in school that a few years down the line you'd be glad you did!
It is anti-social for you see someone you admire and pretend as though they don't exist, this also happens amongst girls too. You see a fellow girl, you like her personality,she's smart etc instead you'd rather hate on her, judge as being proud,feeling full of herself and so on without fully knowing the person...it has happened to me. Funny enough i've been in a position where someone I knew in school came for a job interview which I was in the pannel . Summary good social skills take you far in life and young people should please drop all these stereotypes and learning to make friends for the sake of it! Unfortunately relationships are over sexualized in our generation. You sound like one with her head properly screwed on her shoulders.
Wish you the best in your academic pursuit!

Good to know we are many that desire this, mods/ super mods please we are appealing.
Thanks.


@ Mr Siena, it's been ages I read your post(i'm a regular visitor here but I usually login as guest to read and must confess you are blessed with enormous wisdom) good to have this post bring you out of hibernation

Hi Mods/To-Whom-It-May-Concern,
Can we have something like a charity section which could be moderated by T-HEN Executives where verified cases of people who need financial help are posted after verification OR individuals can post cases on this section which ofcourse could be verified independently by prospective helper/s.
The objective is for easy refrence to threads where people have called out for help but might be swallowed up in the course of subsequent posts/threads when put up on a regular section like family or health section. This also makes it easy for helpers to visit such threads from time to time to know when a situation has emerged in order to help.
Someone like me prefers to pay my tithe this way and it is difficult to scout from thread to thread /section to section looking for who needs help.

I would appreciate if this request is granted.

Shallom!!

Without sounding cheesy, I can say I have had/still having an amazing ride in marriage and I pray to God it continues that way despite the delay in our adorable gems coming(ttc things )
I love my hubby with my last breath but my problem with him is that he is not as charitable as I would love him to be. God has been gracious to us and sometimes I feel we should do something for humanity or the church but he never wants to hear of it! The tricky part is that we maintain joint accounts and I know I can get away with charity work by lying about money but that is not the route I want to tow. Before we got married even when we seemingly had nothing, I told him I have a calling to help people in need he didn't see a problem with it. Right now God has given us the capacity it is usually very difficult to get his buy-in and this bordering me! Before anybody would wonder, we are no Dangote but this is a prodding I feel in my spirit having acquired the basic needs of man. Please someone should advise me without me having to lie

I've never posted on this thread but been following and had to write cos of @Godmystrength. Girl you are such an amazing person and your level headedness/emotional maturity is quite commendable. My weakest point is inability to suck it in or patience wouldn't know what I would do if I were in your position maybe myself or hubby one/two of us would be at the hospital/morgue
Just know you've got a new fan/friend here! Like @Bellong advised, please continue to maintain your calm, don't be confrontational so you can juice out all the details. This is also the time to tighten the nozzle on your finances regarding the history you've posted previously if you understand what I mean.
Above all, don't let this situation affect your career as that is the koko! By all means hold off the discussion till weekend so you don't get yourself worked up unnecessarily.
Marriage is a noble institution and deserves all the hardwork within the ambience of reasonable judgement to make it work especially with spouses that are worth it!
Even my own hubby in all his glory has his own fault will share in another post on this thread in order not to dilute my contribution towards your issue. May God give you the strength and regards to your LO

Good morning wonderful people! I have been MIA for the past 1 year as I was trying to pour all of me in the new job God gave me. I'm exactly 1 year and when I look back it has been God all the way!
@Docokwus: I was moved by your post to write, I understand how you feel and trust me I do. When it seems it's too difficult believe that the breakthrough is just by the corner. I know it is to have such a wonderful man as a hubby the only minus being the gift of a child/children! It is well sis be of good cheer!
@ all the new papas/mamas that welcomed their LO eg Skimpy, Julie Sotum, Julie etc I say a big congrats and may your children continually give you joy and become the masterpiece God has made them to be!
@ Mamaa Godsent: you are a rare gem may God continually give you the strength to continue to do the work you are doing here.
@ all conquerors: God will do that which he says he will do! Lets not weary in praying and praising! The bible says that God inhabits in the PRAISE of his his people, sometimes what prayer cannot do PRAISE can!
Let me share my latest battle on ttc to the shame of the devil, I have noticed the strange dreams I used to have immediately after/during O has returned. Recently I was in South Africa for business meeting and decided to use the opportunity to visit a fert clinic and the doctor after examination gave my enemy the worst verdict I've ever heard on this journey! I bursted into a teary prayer in his office and decreed with my mouth that I will have/i will carry my children to the glory of God. I despaired but immediately picked myself up and has gone back to my balm of God who has the original manufacturers mannual for my body!
I decree on anybody here that the doctors have written off will come back with a testimony that make nonsense of even the best medics in town!
So much on my mind now... I wish all of us all bfp in every area of our lives:
Lastly, I plan to be more regular around here and encouraging all of us to be of good cheer!
Shallom!

@ OP: There is no need for alarm. Like someone rightly advised, you and your wife need to go for extensive medical check up in good fertility hospital. I dont know where you are based, but you can google on fertility clinics close to the area you reside they are quite popular around in Nigeria. And trust me, there are alot of options available to you regardless of what the situation is. Let me also make you understand that fertility issues are not only the fault of the woman as the man could be culpable in some cases. Hence first step should be comprehensive check-up and treatment. NOTE: Do not patronize quacks that tell you to pay a certain amount and that they'd run a computer check and detect what is wrong....WASH. I am giving this advice on the assumption you have not had any holistic fertility check/treatment. If you have then you might state the reports i believe we have medics on this thread/forum that can help.
Above all, prayer and deliverance is very very very very important as most times these things are devices of the enemy to either break your happy home or keep you in bondage. Look for a good deliverance Christ believeing church for prayers. You can go the religion thread and look for a topic title(how to conquer barrenness spiritually) and your eyes will open as testimonies abound of your type of case.

I wish you the best!!! This is also coming from conqueror who WILL conceive 3triplets before the end of the year IJN!!
Huggs to you and wify

Glitterdust: My sister, I don take my fate as I see am o.

@ Op: Girl you have such a determined spirit! Even with all the heat you still manage to comport yourself in well scripted lines. I sympathize with your situation. It is also a good start with the business you are doing now. Try and be strong for your kids, since you have always yearned to work i guess this is the right time to start distributing your cvs. Volunteer to work in organizations you are interested in even without pay.

I wish you the very best and hoping the Lord comforts you in the way he knows best how to do! {huggggs}

@ DhammyG: I really admire the way you put your points out succintly and you sound quite more mature than your age. This ideology of without marriage a woman is nothing is what has claimed the lives of some women in abusive relationships who died therein.
Thanks for making your voice heard and more admirable coming from a teenager!

From a much older person

Sorry about your situation Bro! Please do exactly as Egopersonified has advised. It is well with you and may the unborn child bring you more blessings! If I may ask, what kind of field were you working someone might have an offer for you as God works in mysterious ways.
Stay blessed
