Kinggnicole: You were wrong and you apologised. I just hope you are not considering quiting your job. He's already rubbing it in your face that you are not fertile. Imagine adding jobless to the mix. He'll rub that in too forgetting he asked you to leave.
He's already abusing you emotionally. You have to be strong dear. And by being strong you have to know when to leave.
she deserves a divorce, apology cannot wipe out every wrong, the apology is enough to continue living with you but not to trust you.

Letenwam: A suspected illegal immigrant, has been arrested in Owerri by operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) Imo State Command.
The suspected illegal immigrant identified as Sunday Djimekou from Togo, was apprehended on Thursday along Okigwe road in the Owerri metropolis following a a tip-off. Mr Raji Ibrahim, the NSCDC State commandant, who paraded the suspect at the NSCDC headquarters, Owerri, on Saturday, said upon interrogation, Sunday Djimekou confessed to being an an illegal immigrant.
“The eagle-eyed operatives of the corps found out that he is not a Nigerian. It was also found that he is in the country and Imo State precisely without any document or papers of genuine entry into the country, therefore he is an illegal immigrant,” Ibrahim said.
Ibrahim who stated that the agency would not relent in fighting crimes in the state and the country at large, added that Djimekou came into the country in 2000 and Imo State on June 6, 2005.
“We are not going to rest on our oars in ensuring that the mandates for which the agency was established are achieved,” Ibrahim added.
“The arrest of Djimekou would serve as a deterrent to others in the state,” he said.
According to the NSCDC commandant, the suspect would be handed over to the Nigeria Immigration Service for appropriate actions. Djimekou on his own part, said he came into the country in 2000 on the invitation of a Nigerian, whose name he did not give.
“I came into Nigeria with one man in 2000, who invited me to work in his house in Lagos. I am a tiler. So, when I finished the work, another man that I met while in Lagos promised he would establish me in Imo State because of my good work.
“He is a politician and he was the one that brought me to Owerri in 2005, where I have been working since then,” the suspect said.
Punch gathered that he confessed that he did not have any authorized documents to be in the country.

damiloladuke: A man identified as Ifeanyị Ọnwụnemea has taken to Facebook to express his anger on case of a boy whom his choir members refused to show up at his burial just because he owed Choir dues before his demise.
According to the man who narrated the story, the late Chima was even an orphan and it was so sad that his own colleagues could do this to him. Even those that showed up at he Funeral allegedly came to show pretence.
The man, who was obviously disappointed at their action went ahead to decry the attitudes of church goers, especially the modern day Church members
He wrote:
Because Chima couldn't pay all his Choir dues, his Church Choir - Immaculate Conception Parish, Owerri - refused to attend and sing at his Burial Mass.
Some of the said Parish members only arrived at his graveside just to show pretence.
That's too bad for a boy who had been an ORPHAN.
Sincerely, the Catholic Church is gradually becoming a monumental disappointment.
The post got a lot of negative reviews from his friends who pointed out that most people are only in the church nowadays to simply obey the commandments of going to church and not acting what is being preached in the church.
One wrote:
It has always been, our people are just too blind to see it despite the fact that it's obvious, churches these days are in for business, it may sound bad or rude but that's what it is..
that's the trend these days in the whole of South East, Anglican and Catholic especially, not sure about other denominations. when a member dies, notwithstanding he's a member of a church where he's domiciled, the home church will sum of all the arrears of levies and donations and ask deceased family to pay, else, Church will not attend.
muckross: A final year female Unilag student was arrested today for stealing her boyfriend’s ATM card and using it to buy an iPhone 8 and X on Jumia.
According to reports, the lady bought other items on Jumia too. However, her boyfriend, in collaboration with Jumia, traced the buyer to Unilag’s Moremi Hall where the delivery was made.
That was how the suspect was arrested and handed over to the school’s DSA. An eyewitness said: “It appears, she's been scamming guys with her friends for a long time.
When the Jumia officials came to the hostel, she hid the phones in a bag and threw them in the dustbin. The girl is actually using an iPhone 7 Plus. However, upon realizing what was happening, the boyfriend demanded that the case be dropped.”
PDPGuy: As an intern attached to a court in Nigeria, I witnessed how female counsel were mandated by judges to indicate their marital status while announcing appearance as opposed to their male counterparts.
The most painful part is the manner Judges ask the question and the derision (sure, from the male folks in courtroom). If the female counsel tries to evade the apparent embarrassment; the presiding Judge who often attempts to justify the practice would further ask ‘Miss or Mrs or would you prefer to be referred to as an Esquire?’ or ‘please let us know when you are available or off market, you never can tell there could be a prospective suitor …’. Expectedly the male counterparts are thrilled and always show gratitude by prolonging such conversation in a manner that massages their ego. Little wonder, some men expect women’s education to end in kitchen and the infamous “the other room”.
Years have passed and I still wear the shoes, I must have grown a thick skin to stand such discriminatory environment. Every morning, I announce appearance in court, ensuring that I mutter the suffix Miss after mentioning my name thus: J. I. Ugwu ‘MISS’. This is to prevent drama or the court being torn in two like I witnessed in some situations where female lawyers fruitlessly attempted to go against such discriminatory and debasing legal tradition. Slowly, culture and sentimental attachments to titles have made way to confuse the legal system. One wonders the essence of a female lawyer announcing appearance in court with ‘Miss’ or ‘Mrs’ titles or worst with ‘Esquire’, this is not applicable to the male counterparts as only ‘Mr.’ in exclusion of ‘Master’ is used, also male lawyers are not addressed with any feminine title as is the case when women are addressed as ‘Esquire’ (a male title).
Why can’t I for instance announce appearance as J. I. Ugwu with no title (esquire, miss or mrs)? If there is need to state such titles as Mr./Miss/Mrs, why don’t we use Mr. and Ms respectively as both are neutral terms for each gender, and usually don’t arouse any sense of stereotype. For instance, there are many lawyers who are advanced in their biological age but remain unmarried by choice or circumstance, it may appear demeaning when only the female counterparts in such instance are consequently and constantly reminded of their marital status by the use of Miss or Mrs in an open court. A divorced female lawyer once left the courtroom feeling embarrassed after she literally made a public announcement of a failed marriage when she announced appearance. Immediately announcing her appearance, many colleagues passed notes across to her while others sent messages to her, asking ‘what happened?’
Today, women in positions of authority in the profession whether as law professors, practicing lawyers , senior advocates , or judges, are still comparatively small in numbers; and the issue of whether as women they have any real power remains a moot point. For example, how many women called to Nigerian Bar each year are in courtroom practice? How many of those in active practice are partners in a firm? How many women have become Attorney General of States and the Federation? How many are Senior Advocates of Nigeria? How many of the elected executives of Nigerian Bar Association at the state and national levels are women? During my research, it was appalling to find that there has been only one female National chairman/president of the association since its inception which dates back to 1900, the case of poor female representation equally affects the association at state level. Out of over 475 Senior Advocates it’s worrisome to state that the women amongst them are approximately 20. Is it truly a man’s world? Womanity have come of age in the world career and Nigerian Bar Association should not be left behind. There is call on rethinking the role of women in Nigeria for a sane, less corrupt and lawful society.
The law perhaps has the foundation of discrimination. This is because women’s active participation in law making over the centuries has been comparatively low. The absence of women as active participants in institutions of the law means that women’s perceptions, women’s consciousness and women’s ideas about their reality have played a very little part in the creation of the systems and ideas of the law or in the view of the world reflected in the artifacts of the legal system’s decided cases. Dorothy Smith poignantly described the effect of women’s exclusion from the institutions that create our culture, including the institutions of the law and of politics as being one where the perspectives, concerns, interests of only one sex, one class and one race are represented as general.
Impressively, female law students and lawyers in the profession this century have received the same professional education and training as men. The success at qualifying and working as professionals has depended on her ability to manipulate the concepts and the processes of the system to “think like a lawyer”. Sadly, ‘thinking like lawyers also means thinking like men’. This has sometimes even been explicitly (if not unwittingly) acknowledged by those responsible for our education; a male professor once bestowed on a female student what he considered to be the ultimate compliment for her. “You think more like a man than any woman I have ever taught”. Women often fall victims of such discriminatory compliments, not just at the level of law school, but throughout her professional career.
A woman’s success in the profession still depends to a great extent on her excellence at using the male idioms. It is simply because the male idiom is still by and large the only one in which legal discourse is conducted. Such thoroughgoing socialization in the male norms of the profession has for years, made it unlikely that a woman could be highly successful in it by its term and also be an avowed feminist. http://thenigerialawyer.com/women-lawyering-in-a-mans-world-by-jennifer-ifunanya-ugwu/
