How many Nigerian married ladies are up on facebook smiling on a happy family holiday?

eh none,

nigerian married women don't kiss and tell.

it will be hard to see them on facebook smiling like a bunch of idiots.

Pollypat:
i was with my boyfriend for 3 years.He dumped me for this girl and gave me an excuse that he was not happy being with me lately.
After broke up i found out that i'm pragnant.I told him and he wanted me to abort the baby but i decide to keep it.He was with me at my house while we broke up for 2 month and the last month he left and went with other girl(diferent one from the start) the reason he left because i kicked him out.
he stayed with her for 3 weeks and now he accepted that i will keep the baby.
Recently he was sick and i was with him at the hospital.And now he told me that he wants to get back with me.He's missed me after he gone.He made a mistake and blah blah blah, I still love him but i don't know what to do because i dotn know if i can really trust him.And i still want to the what would be the real reason that he wants me back

what have u got to lose? take him back asap.

the most important thing here is you still love him.

afterall, love conquereth all.

The Nigerian institution of marriage is unconventional by western standards. The traditional and Islamic systems of polygamy flourish within every social class. Women expect very little from men in terms of companionship, personal care, and fidelity. Their relationships exist without the emotional elements.

Polygamy is a crucial component of many women's lives. Women depend on the other wives of their husbands. The younger co-wives take on many of the household and financial responsibilities. As women get older they have the comfort of knowing that the burden of their marriage does not fall solely on their shoulders.

A woman's postion in society changes vastly once they marry since she becomes a possession, with relatively no rights in her husband's family. In fact, the husband's mother and sisters have much more of an influence over him than his own wife. The wife resents this lack of control or even respect within their marriage.

The Nigerian system of inheritance reflects the lack of male responsibility to his wife and children. If a husband dies, the woman usually receives nothing, although the law entitles her to a share. If she has no children, the treatment is worse. Since property can only pass between the same sexes, women can never inherit from their fathers.

Within marriage, women have an obligation to have children. Traditionally, society blames the woman for a marriage without children. Society not only condemns women who cannot have children, but unmarried and divorced women as well.

In recent years, the support of the co-wives has diminished. Modern developments of mandatory education, urbanization, and capitalism are changing the Nigerian society. Since 1960, educational opportunities have expanded for women. Slowly men are beginning to see the value of higher education for their wives. Now, more often than not, they send their daughters to school for an education.

this is absolutely rubbish.

it's a shame the poster didn't highlight what the nigerian men bring to the table in relationships/marriage.

most men foot all the utility bills/rents/car maintenance and pocket money for their spouses.

what do nigerian women expect? equal rights? hell to the no!

dayokanu:
On a normal day Man Utd would not play all these. If Neville was fit, Brown would not play/.

But on an unusual day, I have seen John Terry and Rio in goal for their teams ( When Injury beckons, Alex Song was drafted to central defence)

this is so wrong.

i thought neville was fit before the cl final in moscow and sir alex/carlos queiroz still played brown, vidic, carrick, hargreaves and scholes.

you are pointless, dk.

wormedup:
is mikel obi still a Arrow

he is doing well for a nigerian player.

all he does is to make sideways and backwards passes.

i am yet to see him make a key pass but he brings stability and can tackle considerably well.

A loss is a loss whether against Fulham or Stoke City a loss remains a loss what yall need to do is move on and like i said the earlier you guys recover the better because another loss at SB would be crushing to your title hopes no matter how you spin it because you guys lost only one game out of 6 among the big 4 last season and like i told yall before if you start poorly this season you wont recover because everyday no be christmas Arsenal,Liverpool and Chelsea will not all slip up at the same time don't count on it

this is absolutely baseless.

in 06/07(man united had a mere 8 points from 6 games(head to head) and won the league title.

arsenal(in the same season) had 11 points from 6 games(head to head) and came 4th.

vikiviko:
Please can somebody name the squad list of the Italian Under 17 team at CANADA 87,we played the italain in the semi final.
There was this guy wearing jersey No.17. Tapollini, can anybody remeber him?

Also in that great team was Fabio Gallo and Machello Mehli, please where are these guys?

the player u were talking about is massimiliano cappellini wearing jersey number 11.

he is tall almost luca toni-esque but i have never seen a more dangerous opponent against any nigerian team.

cappellini nearly broke lemmy isa's spine with some trade mark shots and deft touches.

he scored twice on the night but referee disallowed both goals. . . . i can never forget cappellini and yuri nikiforov(ussr) in that tournament.

rooney is the heartbeat of any team.

he is the most complete footballer of his generation.

2 international games(1 goal, 3 goal assists).

enough said.

loyika:
Le Chac

Shut up already Theo deserves the credit for the goals. If you want to credit Rooney, you might as well credit the bleeping keeper for kicking the ball out to the defenders before it got to the midfielders and so on

UTTER RUBBISH!! Haven't others created chances for Shrek before HOW MANY HAS HE SCORED CREDIT GOES TO ROONEY MY A*&!!

it seems the concept of goal assists is lost on you.

goal assists is as important as scoring. without an assist, there can be no goal.

edoyad:
The evidence of  Rooney's uneffectiveness  needs no more validation than UNITED'S splashing of $##m(who knows how much they really bought that thing) on Berbatov. They're desperate and can't give the guy the boots, just like MADRID can't give Raul the boots. Irrational purchases can never replace genuine team planning, policy and implementation like those guys at EMIRATES do.

which explains why arsenal has not won the league in four years.

this is the fifth season for arsenal without a league title.

it's obvious the team planning, policy and implementation at arsenal is nothing to write home about.

nalijah07:
I'm seeking advice for one of my good friends, so please go easy on us 

She is divorcing her husband after many years of mistreatment on his part. The snag is that the house they own is in his and his mother's name. His mother has never paid a penny towards the mortgage, but is now threatening to not sign off on the sale of the house because she is upset that this woman is divorcing her son. She is using the excuse that she is trying to come up with the money to buy out the daughter-in-law, of her share of the home.

My friend does not want to wait for the family to see if they can come up with the money, because the house has been for sale for over a year and they finally have a solid offer. If they reject the offer and the family can not come up with the money, they will have to start back from square one and possibly wait months before they receive another offer. Meanwhile she is living with this man in near agony.

She told her husband in no uncertain terms, that if his mom does not sign off on the house, she will stop helping him with the mortgage and let the house go into foreclosure, and no one will get a penny. The husband is stuck because he is trying to appease both his family and the wife.

Also, she has began to receive harassing phone calls from her sister-in-law, who has taken it upon herself to do the talking for the mother-in-law.

it's a win-win situation for her.

this is america for crying out loud, not nigeria.

her statement of account will show she is the one paying the mortgage of the house so there's proof.

besides, it does not matter whose name is on the house.

as long as they have cohabitated for more than 6 months, even if they are not married, she is entitled to 50% of the proceeds.

a man can never win with a woman in the usa/uk. the laws are designed to protect women like her.

your friend is very safe.

chika98:
How do we know that these people really are virgins

virgins by hymen.

what has entered their anus does not count.

as long as they have a hymen to show anyone, it's good in the hood.

the next person that opens another virgin thread on nairaland will be cyber-slapped, i mean it.

how many virgin topics will one read in this section?

it's tiring already.

virgins are saints, virgins are the salt of the earth, the gateway to heaven is to be a virgin, virgins don't sin, virgins don't die young.

nonsense.

NubianQ:

McKren:
What may have won this match for us is history

Our boys no play anything

you can say that again.

we couldn't even keep the ball in the dying minutes of the game.

nigerian players were still lumping balls forward aimlessly to tired strikers thus giving the ball back to the south africans.

the referee was reluctant to blow the final whistle, he played 5 mins when he should have stopped at 4.

south africa had a late corner and nigerian defenders were ball watching instead of closing down.

there's so much work to do on that team.

we won this match because of dele ayenugba.

he has given a 5 star performance today.

ayenugba made another daring save just now, although benni mccarthy was offside(but what a save).

bwahahahahahahahaha south african fans are leaving the stadium. their national pride has been dealt a massive blow.

yommys01:
Thank God for mother luck and Goalkeeper and South Africans themselves, if not we would have conceded up to 4 goals

the south africans were all over nigeria before uche scored.

dele ayenugba should be the man of the match.

saves after saves after saves. i hope wenger is watching this game.

goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll


uche scores

nigeria scores!!!

i don't see us winning the game unless something dramatic happens.

south africa deserve a lead at least but they have been wasteful in front of goal.

they have created more chances and nigeria's goalkeeper is the busier goalie.

dayokanu:
I AM NOT A FIRST CLASS STUDENT!!! EVEN IF I SHOULD GO BACK TO IFE FOR THE SAME COURSE I DONT THINK I WOULD MAKE A FIRST.

TO MAKE A FIRST CLASS, YOU MUST LIVE A TRIANGLE LIFE. CLASS, ROOM AND FELLOWSHIP. NONE OF THESE FIRST CLASS STUDENT EVEN WENT CLUBBING. AT LEAST IN MY FACULTY AND WE HAD LIKE 15 FIRST CLASS  ALL OF THEM WERE FELLOWSHIP BOYS.

E.G SEUN WAS A FIRST CLASS STUDENT IN IFE AND GOD!!! YOU DONT WANT TO BE LIKE HIM HE WAS DAMN BORING!!!!!!

i disagree with u.

there are no secrets to being a first class student other than natural brilliance.

i know of at least 2 student who were first class students and they partied like hell.

sometimes they don't even attend lectures and when exam comes, they ace it quite effortlessly

a genius does not need hours of candle burning to score high grades.

the standard of nigerian football keeps nose-diving.

defenders kept lumping aimless passes forward, attackers are not running the channels and the whole display has been insipid.

the best chance was wasted by uche. a good pass in the 6 yards and he shot over the bar with the far side of the goal gaping.

nigeria should just rely on the team that went to the olympics.

south africa had good chances to put the game beyond nigeria but credits should be given to the nigerian goalie.

why do girls confuse romance with finance?

they are confused because the two words end with "ance".

hunniebomb:
This might sound obvious, that the guy pays for the dowry, but not in all cases. sometimes when the guy is "broke" and the couple is not patient, the girl can give the guy the money (saying what is mine is urs, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah). is this good or bad? are there any consequences and if so what r they.
your opinion is need.

senseless thread.

husband pays brideprice, the bride pays the dowry.

a man expecting his bride to pay the brideprice is not responsible.

what else? the bride should pay for the wedding rings too?

nysc.

debosky:
Better my foot - Sagna and Clichy are the best in their positions in the league. Dossena and Degen will NEVER achieve that, neither in Italy/Germany nor in England.

i disagree.

is clichy better than patrice evra?

arsene wenger will tell u he is not.

darefestus:
No mind those other teams they just dey jealous, Paulo rossi{italian legend}talk say we get the best team in the world, so u all hatters , Go to hellllllllllllllllllllllllllll, UNITED WE STAND>, NO SHAKING

i saw the interview.

he only said man united have the best attack in the world.

i think i agree with paulo rossi 100%.

tkb417:
what happened to Maulesteen? tot the guy would be taken out of the youth side. Nyways, ill always respect SAF's decision

rene meulensteen is now the first team coach.

he is filling the post left by mike phelan.

nazzyon:
I can't wait to see Manucho in that United Jersey.

He was in a class of his own during that AFCON and Panathinaikos; I just pray he surprises SAF the more when he plays against very experienced players in the Premierleague.

in david gill's interview last night, he said manucho could go on to be sir alex's biggest signing this decade.

the only problem man united have now is how to keep everyone happy. 4 top strikers will be hard to please with rotation.

4-2-3-1 is the safest option(let the trinity play behind dimi).
