That's my friend's son over there!!

.

Unfortunate set of events..

Quite a few learning points if a deep transparent investigation can be done.


.

JaskanFactor:
did anybody notice that the building collapsed straight down onto its foundation.

and the building had been standing for almost a year or more before the collapse.

Basically if the building was controlled demolition, it wold look exactly like this one did.
A straight down collapse unto its footprint affecting no nearby structures .

And then to top it up, its just by chance that this happened when the owner was inside .
Am just saying too many coincidences in this one to rule out foul play.

Completely agree...

It all sounds rather dubious or orchestrated in the least.

.

perambulator:
All your wealth will not make you complete if you have no family, no children, no husband. .

That's very relative sir. There is an increasing number of singles - female or male - who are in this position ( never married or widowed) who feel complete.

You can be lonely even when surrounded by people or gazillion family members!! It's a state of mind!!

perambulator:
but not at the expense of what makes a woman a woman....

This is a rather unfortunate and archaic stereotype. As this portrays women awaiting fruits of the womb as NOT being a woman!!

perambulator:
Ask single women in their 40s and 50s if they truly are happy despite their wealth.

Another misconception!!

Societal misogynistic tendencies do not always translate to Truth.
There's an increasing number of singles - women by default who have learnt to enjoy their lives, not feel guilty for the advantages they enjoy which often come at significant sacrifice.

They develop hobbies and other life skills and make social investments - charities.... And generally have a good life!

Whilst there are women who after sacrificing their best years, are full of regret in their twilight years about forgotten dreams and aspirations which often sit with family wahala - cheating husband with side chicks, chronic illnesses and poorly trained children...'vicissitudes of life'!!

This is the singular reason behind many middle-age divorces.



In summary, To each their own.

Simply be happy in your situation and avoid casting aspersions

onumadu:
Just wondering ... what is the meaning of "Akuko" in Yoruba? In Igbo it means "story".

For the topic, if this chicken sculpture tagged "Ọkhọkhọ"does not show that Edo is Igbo, I wonder what else is left.

OR

onumadu:
It is still neither here nor there because the punctuation under the "O" is purely Igbo.
And in Igbo it means "Chicken".

Please make your mind up...

Story or chicken

All of us in this Nairaland Forum would have been dead in the Next 60 years including the Founder. You all shouldn't forget that. Thread with life Gently... nothing is worth it!

Not all of us!

Hmmm

There's more to the story..

When she can be put in jail for stealing his property and looking to benefit from it....

His lawyers have been quite slack - label her as an unfit mother, take the child from such a negative influence. Then she's got nothing to use to her advantage.

A case of different levels!!!

Beads has been as old as metusalah in igboland and some African countries too.
Caucasians or white just borrowed it.

So remove those pictures. That's how they always ascribe everything to white man when we know they stole most from diff countries the enslaved

Yeah, men find it sexually stimulating down here.
The way men in the North found some drawings sexy and alluring on their women's body.

Like tattoo, they all originated from Africa, now Africa man said tattoo is sin while oyibo man has embraced tattoo.
What a world we live in.

Tattoo according to our dear pastors is sin.
Mbok

Beads shown here are ceremonial and not for daily wear.

The op meant the smaller ones which are easily hid under clothes.


Some are family heirlooms which in some areas carry a familiar spirit to help protect young girls from sexual attacks. - a sort of spiritual padlock.

This use can be flipped into - - padlocking of any unsuspecting male after coitus - - hence Kayanmata folklore

It's use once altered, results in a sexual aphrodisiac--effect.
The very physical nature of it, lends its use as a s.... ex toy.


To a lot of unsuspecting females, it's used as a fashion accessory.
Which is OK, if the source is well researched.

Kudos to Yemi Alade
Congratulations to her mother..
She will "chop child-food long"

The authenticity of her message--content, the multiple artistic influences and a focus on being relevant in her niche which include social justice proponent, has helped her in being on top of the game, alongside her vocal prowess.

Kudos once again.

Isn't that photoshopped??

Clear case of iron deficiency

Any possibility of a similar experience with bandits

A spanner +/- wet sand
Chip off the edges till you get a grip.

Will never consider welding.. Can lead to a fire accident - sparks and a car tank full of petrol are not best together.

Good to see they are still together 6 years later after countless rumours.

philiancoop:

As much as, TD can be a handful...but she could be onto something here - putting an end to emotional abuse!!
If PK has been a blackmailing other women with recordings, he met his match with Tonto..

Where is the popcorn, as this saga isn't ending anytime soon.

Deltafynest:
I have been dating this girl for more than a year now. We have been committed even with travails here and there sometimes.

I'm a student, she also and she's an orphan. My intention boarded on the idea that she would understand me knowing fully well where i was coming from.

Every week, i began to discover new stuffs mostly on the ground that she has slept with all categories of people in the past including cripple, pastor, someone she's older than, and even her uncle, her former boss too and her boss's brother. Even with all these revelation i was still willing to stay with her. There are secret stuffs that i can't share online about her.


Her ex boyfriend has been a bone in the neck since the start of this relationship. He didn't want to let go so i learnt and the girl has expressed total hatred on the guy. She doesn't even want to hear his name at all.

So she recently travelled and was calling me. One day, she called me that she has something to say, she said she would come to town to tell and because of the intrigue i was able to get her to talk on the phone. She said she has slept with the ex boyfriend since we started the relationship.

Now the main thing is, a pastor once told me that my gf's glory was used for rituals which we suspected the dude being that they dated for over 9 years plus and she was certain it was the guy due to some factors which i can't say.

Things hasn't been easy whenever she is around me mostly when she spends time in my house. Things will just go bad and terrible, doors will just close...

So, when she told me about the guy. She said she did it because she was looking for 20k. I was angry because the period she said she took the money, i remember i had $4500 sent to me and she never asked me for any money.

The matter has been on ground and i have been so pained since cos i know she must have done it with someone else too.

So i travelled to Portharcourt to see her today from Warri even though i was short on cash and had to raise the money to see her. On getting there we trashed the matter out and her sister said i should forget the past so that we can move on. I agreed, i was already getting tired of her shenanigans, so i decided not to be used by this id#ot again. The bit*h even mentioned that the guy has been disturbing her life with calls to come back.

I took the guy's number and called him like a guy man. We have actually related in the past before so we needed no too much introduction. The guy said they are not dating but he is only having time with her and that she would call him to ask for money almost all the time. This girl never told me she was looking for money and i refused. I have always tried my best for her.

After talking, i and the guy agreed to just use her. The guy said i should not take her serious and should just enjoy myself with her. That whenever she go back to town i should call him to take over from that side. So i agreed.

Bit*h will be shocked if she thinks i will take her serious. We will just useless her for years and waste her time. If you see the way we agreed to use her ehn, you will know the hatred is real.


Don't trust these girls.

Guy, just cut your losses... Delete in number... .

You sef, need deliverance as the different kinds of spirit, she go dob dowoad and transfer to you.

As u bi nao- as u dey so - - - na vector to transfer any residuals to any unsuspecting lady

EkelediliBuhari:
Where there’s one there’s more

Woke should do something to preserve them

. Quite agree

A game reserve of sorts... with electronic tags to monitor, in partnership with a respected animal care partner!!

.

Come on chaps....

He's only tickling her!!!

Pulmonary thrombus

DrFunmisticGlow:
the journalist did a shoddy job

Quite agree..
Chasing the "shock and awe" effects of disturbing news often leads to poor analysis of preceding events or its eventual delivery.

But the attention it generates is what promotes shoddy work.

.

Unfortunate set of events.

Manslaughter at best or death by misadventure at worst


RIP little baby.

daddytime:
This result still doesn't exonerate him from any culpability, in my opinion.

An ectopic pregnancy is a recognised cause of mortality.
Except the following can be proven, Just let the man go.


1. He accelerated the ectopic pregnancy rupture. By beating her up severely.
Otherwise this case is dead on arrival.



I find quite interesting that the lady had him on a leash with a 8 month pregnancy when the medical report suggests she would have been 6 - 9weeks pregnant given the location of the pregnancy.

This is when one starts to wonder, what was really going on!!



2. The autopsy result is false.

A Twitter user found himself at the sharp end of online flack after he advertised a local dish with an intercontinental price.

The tweep known as Engr Ashile showed off a plate of eba and vegetable soup, and said it costs N43,620.

The dish had two mounds of eba and vegetable soup garnished with kpomo and assorted meat.

https://playloaded.com.ng/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/eba-soup_PLAYLOADED.COM.jpg

He claimed that it was his business and he asked interested customers to order so it can be delivered to their doorstep at N43, 620.

Ashile’s post, generated massive response but rather than the comments to be flooded with orders, many posed questions on what makes the meal so special for it to be sold at that amount.

Sharing a photo, he wrote;

I thought a renowned professor said this should be 500 naira

Ade3131:
He's speaking from a platform provided by NTA for crying out loud....what would any sane minded Nigerian have expected?

He could have replied with some complicated mumbo jumbo, a parody of their efforts rather than display a poor understanding of the struggles of the average Nigerian.

.

RiceProducers:
People working for me buy lunch at less than N500. I personally make my own breakfast for about N350.
Nigerians should stop emoting and start using intellect. When you emote you will tell lies because you are not strong enough to face facts and tell the truth.

Meanwhile it is a global problem. Please let Google be your friend. Currencies are depreciating and inflation is high everywhere

To your contribution, I'll simply state this is relative. Your workers could manage at that price, is not to say a lot of Nigerians van get meals at the same price

To those blessed with agricultural products - hinterland or large agricultural cities... 500 naira may be adequate.

Certainly not in the larger cosmopolitan cities
Not with the rise in inflation and other ancillary costs... Alongside poor fiscal policies

.

Being Tagged and monitored might help protect them

Looking on

This is rather distressing news....
The outright truancy demonstrated.
The lack of fiscal control apparent, is frightening.





Having a governance board or website where whistle blowers recount all the escapades of all lawgivers from local government councillors to state assembly members all through to governors and Red and Green chamber chaps to the Presidency.

On a weekly basis, there's a tally count of good vs bad deeds... Verified independently and democratically..... A score board of sorts.

. Just maybe the visibility of such a board, may induce some shame in these people.
