Apostle of marital doom. Nigerian constitution allows for wife spanking... deal with it.

Spousal spanking

Is it allowed for a man to spank his wife under the law? Section 55(1) (d) of the Penal Code provides that “Nothing is an offence, which does not amount to the infliction of grievous harm upon any person and which is done by a husband for the purpose of correcting his wife. Such husband and wife being subject to any natural law or custom in which such correction is recognized as lawful.”

Please show me the section in the constitution where "spousal spanking" is provided for.

reproduce it here the way you did with the provisions of the Penal code.

besides, the Penal Code is applicable in the North, while the criminal code applies in the south. so that your argument no gel at all.

go through the criminal code, that which applies to the south where the supposed beating took place and bring out the provisions.

let's start from there.

I can't help but agree with dickson.

very lazy set of people. I schooled in yenagoa for almost a year. the mentality of the average person in bayelsa state is bring make we dey chop, dey jolly dey make merry. on a Monday evening, bars and joints are so full you would wonder if these people ever go to work at all.

would you blame alams of blessed memory who I heard was fond of giving people money on a regular basis which made them have this false sense of entitlement.

everywhere I go to especially the bridges on muritala mohammed way I see scribbled writing of free zakazay and don't free zakazay.

so this is the face of the man they want free at all cost. someone who has been terrorising residents of kaduna with his doctrines.

oriegwu.

how does the topic and the content relate?

I am reading and i don't understand


first the writeup says He remains in his post despite being accused of misappropriating £338million by a commission investigating the sale of state assets.

Then the writeup says he bankrolled the president's campaign


Someone please tell me which assets Amaechi sold in Rivers state that is worth 338 M pounds

if amaechi steals the amount of money mentioned by daily mail, won't rivers state be wrecked to the ground?

going through comments on this thread, some people just talk without sense.

aren't you guys tired of preaching the same sermon everyday?
jeeez.

Teespice, gud morning ma!! Guess your night was good. Sorry i had to disturb you cos you're already making me uncomfortabale. I've been stalking following you for some time now and am trying the understand the main reason why u're not comfortable in kano, is it that your friends redeployed, the tribalism or the standard of life? Am curious because am also considering going to kano but your last entry added salt to the injury. I'll be glad to hear from you.

lol at stalking me.

for starters, my posts shouldn't make you uncomfortable.

I am very comfortable in kano. not once have I regretted serving there.

the initial problems I had when I first moved was communication as most of the natives do mot understand English language. as such they use that opportunity to cheat those who they perceive as johnny just come. with time you would understand the basics just as I have done.

yeah, my friends redeployed and at a point I was very lonely. but I have gotten a new flatmate so the issue of loneliness is no longer in question.

the standard of living in kano is very cheap. if you are the kind that loves to club and party, there are night clubs and bars in sabon gari and no man's land. there are also fun spots you would live Asides the mall and cinema.

tribalism also exists but I know how to deal with it my own way.

as per my last diary post, it has absolutely nothing to do with kano.

kano is the place to be for service year. only pray you get posted to the town as the villages is nothing to write home about.

Hahahhahaha.. Now, you got me confused..

Then what is the essence of happiness if it cannot be broken? Where is the challenge? Where is the 'I can do it' attitude?

You have to be unhappy to appreciate happiness ..

babes

happiness can be broken. which is why I said it all boils down to expectations.

Sleekyshuga:
In essence, unbroken happiness is a fact ?


You made sense .. Well, I think we don't plan for a broken happiness.. If that attack do not come, how then can you cherish the other person/what you share?

So, you stand with unbroken happiness being bore ?

I don't stand with unbroken happiness being a bore.

I will gladly welcome anything and anybody that makes me happy 365 days a year and beyond.

but I know it is not possible going with events that might happen most especially, the unplanned ones.

this is where expectations come in. one has to have at the back of their mind that one day something unexpected will happen as as such prepare for that day.

I might be called a pessimist, but abeg, na reality dey ground.

I have read half of a yellow sun and americanah.

unbroken happiness is futile in my opinion. though as humans we do not pray for bad things to happen so that the chain of happiness be broken, but then something has to happen for it to be broken even though that event or causative agent/factor may or may not be planned.

I don't know if I made sense.

Gerrarahere Mehn!

Its said that one does not wash his dirty linens outside but the case is different from the First Class Chief of the Zombies!!

so what should he do?

package our citizens as non corrupt people. forgetting that our antecedents are speaking for us.

stop being hypocritical please.

jaybee3:
Why did you disregard the adjective?

I said mostly because crime stats on drug smuggling paints a grim picture on my Igbo brothers

so drug smuggling is the basis for the adjective you used abi.

it is well.

jaybee3:
The OP definitely didn’t think this through hard enough before opening the thread.

Is it safe to conclude that they had rather engage in criminality rather than beg?

That’s seriously uncool

I’d rather beg than do the crimes that are mostly associated with my Igbo brothers


Why would anyone even think begging is bad. We all need a little help here and there and it’s unfortunate Nigeria State does not have any welfare support whatsoever to the most vulnerable

re: your second to last paragraph.

so you are saying that there are crimes "associated" with igbos abi?

crime is crime irrespective of which tribe commits it. pinning specifics on one person or tribe is so unfair.

Don't forget this things can have a bug in them sometimes.
It cannot be perfect all of the time.
It's a system, a computer, codes, software that are prone to errors due to bugs or human tweaks.

For me, I still believe GTBs service is still the best around.

was going to say the same thing.

not once I haven't regretted banking with GTB.

which discussion again?
I thought he has already been acquitted by a competent court.

choiiiiiiiii
these dudes are handsome shaaaaaaaa.
op, why have you chosen to assault my eyes this morning.

since when did my school degenerate like this?
