Nekai,

Where are you? England or the US?

Is he still a student? Does he have a job?

Either way, the dude has money to party and club around and also spend on the newest "mumu" girl draped around his arm. If he could have unprotected seexx with you then he is doing the same with other girls and sooner or later there'll be many more girls pregnant for him out there. Once a dog, always a dog!

Go after hime with all you've got for child support. He should pay. Even if it is $1/week, let that pathetic SOB pay for the upkeep of his children. Maybe if he was a bit more civil towards you and acted like a fukking real man, we wouldn't be having this conversation. He is nothing but a punk and he should be treated as such!

Don't hold your breath thinking he'll come around because he won't unless God punishes him and he is unable to have any more children when he really wants them. That's when they usually remember the child they abandoned and then they come begging and blaming the devil for thier wickedness and act of abandonment.

Only in the movies, the guy has shown that he is very capable. 1 time, twins. What are the odds? The guy will probably find someone else and have a new family. Someone he likes. I need to ask the OP this though, what is it about you that he doesnt like? Are you sure you guys were in a relationship or you were just Friends with benefits( if you answer truly no one will judge you, i will personally block you and fight for you here )

Ma_J_Blige:
Even SaharaReporters doesnt go the way people on NL now goes.

Opposition apart. It is a shame that many commentators in here have resorted into using uncouth languages on the President just to make a point.

Names like GEJ is a fool. GEJ is dumb. GEJ is waiting to explode. GEJ will soon die. GEJ is a jackass. GEJ is a m, oron. GEJ is a buffon and more like that, are not necessary against someone who is a father, apart from being a sitting President.

I read SR comments but they seem to be more cultured than the ones on NL - Seun. Dont let them give NL a bad name. Opposition and differences apart.

Lead by example. You people have not taught GEJ how to talk. So dont be angry when some Nigerian's show similar traits. It runs in the blood. If our presido can talk anyhow, so can we.

@ Alj harem

it may intrest u to know Lagos city council or colony of Lagos was once led by an Igbo man called zik all those irrelevant litrature u posted are un-neccessary. U just want to de-enfrachise at least 16 million lagosians from exercising their rights to seek political office. Mind u d 16 million figure includes Yorubas from d countryside" awon aro oke"

Yoruba man

afam4eva:
Are u sure he understands? he thinks you guys are one. Pls expain to him.

We are definitely one, he is not wrong about that. Its the way Nigeria works, but when all Lagosian's are finished, then it will move on to other Yoruba's before a man from Kano or Enugu.

afam4eva:
Your enemy also includes yoruba people because acccording to TewMuch any yoruba from outside lagos cannot govern lagos.

Lol, you are trying to stir the nest arent you. Sorry it wont work. He understands what i mean. Governorship is for the indegines. Forget that side.

Let them keep supporting him. The numbers keep sliding by the minute.

Ibro Yaya:
^^^Thats how Rascals Talk. The rascals are gradually manifesting!!

Nekai:
It isn't about the money for me. It is more about the principle. I am sure if he is ordered to pay child support it would be very little.
And do you know that motherhood is a full time job?? Imagine working a 10 hour shift and coming home to feed a baby (or babies) that eat every 3 hours around the clock. And on your day off? More round the clock baby time. Even a mother with one child doesn't have it easy.
Who would look at a baby as a money making venture? Maybe those women who date basketball stars and other wealthy men.

Can you get child support from someone that is not legally allowed to work in the country? Only allowed school jobs? Did his father get you pregnant? They cant make him talk to you, you think they can force him to feed you? Do you think the father doesnt have other children to take care of, that he will now take care of all your responsibilities? If he decides to not work will you suck his blood? You better decide what you want to do before he finishes his education and runs away. The earlier you get civil the better for you.

eku_bear:
How do you know definitively?

Are the Yoruba God's and custom's specific to an area? People bear the same names from different area's. It is not by name please. There are also Ijebu lagosian's by the way. Their area is Ikorodu. And there are Egun's. So it is not only Awori. But the families are known.

@ Tewmuch

Dont worry.

afam4eva:
There's a sayiing that what's good for the goose is good for the gander. If a yoruba man that's not an indegene of lagos can become governor of lagos state. there's no reason why any one else can't.

When we get to the gander, we would have established that all the Yoruba's have become extinct.

afam4eva:
@Tewmuch
It's not fair now. Allow your fellow yoruba people to be contest in lagos state. Are they not your people again. Remember they joined you to fight the Igbos that were laying claim to the governorship position in Lagos.

They are my people but that is just how it works. They have other position's in the state and no one bats an eyelid. But the governorship is Lagosian. I cannot say i want to go to Ekiti and contest. Am i mad? From where?

ASL33:
Unless he was adopted, we all know he is not from Lagos. Ok what if the "Powerful Lagos Family" back an Ekiti man or an Hausa man will you revolt.?

They cant try it again because of the controversy over tinubu the woman was constantly harassed.

jason123:
Joker. How can you tell the difference?

Itsekiri man, everyone knows his father's compund. We know the families in Lagos. Dont worry, we know how to weed out imposter's. Leave that alone. There is a special Yoruba way and they all know.lol.

ASL33:
I know Tinubu is not from Ekiti but he is not from Lagos either. Do you have any answer why he became the governor of lagos if an Ekiti man cannot be.

Who is Tinunbu's family? Is the Tinunbu name an Osun name? You wouldnt know anyway. He was backed by a powerful Lagos family, and they said he belongs to them. If your father claims you, who are we to say you are not his child?

manny4life:
I'm not running off tangent; I was only saying "besides" lagos is highly multicultural. I don't care whether yoruba or not, if you have the feat to do so, again by all means. I know I would not go to yoruba land to do so, but if he chose to, that is the option, let the voters decide. Lagos has eligibility requirements to become a governor, if he decided he met each and every one of  them, go for it and same applies to you. If you think you met the eligibility requirement to be a governor of my state, by all mean. Just because his running does not mean you nor I will vote for him, but at least that's the chose he embarked on.

Sure, even you knows that it is ridiculous. You are trying to be politically correct, and you know it is something you will not take that is why you will not do it.

eku_bear:
Anyone is permitted to run; nobody is claiming he should not run. Doesn't mean he has a snowball's chance in hell of winning, though.

Let him run in Ekiti, this Lagosian disagree's with you. Even an Ekiti man is not allowed to become Governor in Lagos.

afam4eva:
As long as that's where the yoruba was born or have lived most of his life.

Has dangote lived most of his life in Lagos? Was he born in Lagos? Even if he was does he understand traditions and culture of the place? Forget being born somewhere. This is not America, we have different traditions and norms that even if you live there for a 100 years you will never understand. So lets leave story for tortoise. When the East and the North are ready to become progressive, have developed their states and have shown by example then we can follow suit. Till date we have not seen that trend. Not even a non indigene LG chairman.lol.

manny4life:
If he has the feat to run for governor, by all means, Besides, Lagos is a multicultural state; a state with different diversities. True it's no one size fits all democracy, but I'm still insisting that cultural barriers shouldn't stop a candidate.

Will you be okay for a Yoruba man to become Governor, dont go off the tangent and try to make excuses for why Lagos is different. Lagos is by and LARGE MAJORLY YORUBA! As your village sits on so much oil wealth and your people are fighting like mad to control their resources is it okay for me to come and manage it for you? Considering Nigerian thieving politicians, especially one that has nothing in common with you?

Nekai:
Priority #1 for me would be that he be in the boys life and actually care about them.
Since it doesn't look like he will "come around" anytime soon, then I would want a judge to find him responsible so that he will be on their birth certificate, and start paying something,even if a minimal amount.
I think he is going about his merry way living his life like the boys don't exist.
@TewMuch it's interesting to have a male perspective, but I don't know if I am quite ready to contact him just yet.
It's really sad, but if he waits 5 years to start coming around then I have to just ignore the fact that he wasn't there before?? The pregnancy and the last 4 months since they have been here has been the hardest thing I have ever went through. There was even a point where the doctors thought it was a less then 50/50 chance that they would make it. It has been a lifetime for me. Then there is the fact that as a single parent I get snide comments and dirty looks from people who assume that I am just an uneducated ghetto girl. (To be honest I even got looks and comments from some of my own extended family members which hurt worse) He will never understand how it feels to look in these boys eyes and know that they are depending on me for everything. Even if he comes around later and plays an active role in their lives it will not erase the past.

This is why I kind of want to file child support. If he is too overwhelmed to provide the physical, mental and psychological support then maybe he can contribute financial support.

Maybe I should just forget about him altogether?

You can file for child support doesnt mean he will pay it. His father's money is not his money, trust me an international student probably makes minimum wage depending on your state. That was $5 in my time. If you look for child support from him, prepare to go on welfare. Probably cant pay his own rent. From the looks of things, he will see it as you made the CHOICE to have the kids and he didnt, so you will take care of them. He is also not an American, a judge can make whatever ruling he likes. The guy can always leave the country and leave you broke. The sooner you make him comfortable the bettter for you. His father is unlikely to pick up his responsibility

manny4life:
Go to your father village is the same mentality holding Nigerians backwards. You and I very well know that would the possibility of him doing that is slim, but my question is, just because it's unacceptable, isn't it legal?

That is how it works. Democracy works in different ways and every one modifies it to suit thier country. There is no one size fits all for democrazy. Whatever works for a country is what will happen. Can you let a Yoruba man become governor in your State? And let him decide your resources? Please answer the question first.

He doesnt understand the word rascal, we will show him what rascal truly means at the polls. He goes to insult his biggest supporters. Who does that? Even millitants cannot help him out of this one. See babangida? The people of this region dont have short memories.

manny4life:
I think people are just missing the effin point.

Mr. Dangote has every right to run for governor if he meet the eligibility requirements; residential requirements happen to be one of them. However, let the polls decide if he would be governor or not. Please stop the bickering and face the fact.

That is not how it is done in Nigeria. Everyone goes to their father's village to contest, simple. Let Kano be the first to break that tradition or Enugu, as we know these people will never do it. So why demand that of Yoruba's? What you wont take in your father's house dont go to another person's house and demand it. You are Ogoni, can you fathom a Yoruba coming to say he wants to be governor of your state, with all the oil resources and lead all the militants there? Abegi

ASL33:
Knowall are you a lagos yoruba or from another state. Will you like Dangote to be the governor of your Oyo state(u grew up there from one of your posts).

Please he is not Yoruba. Dont insult our intelligence. He is most probably delta. All these people from the creeks.lol.

KnowAll:
There has not been a federal presence in lagos for the past 12 years now. Dangote would bring the necessary  Federal presence into lagos, and moreso by 2015 we would be having a northern president that would also work in favour of lagos too.

Federal Presence? Is this guy mad? What the hell does this mean? You need to check into Yaba left. Who wants a federal presence, did we come to you to say we need you to solve our problems. No one asked for your concern of federal presence. Kindly F8ck off and seal yourself in the UK where you are with federal presence. One less deranged lunatic with air dreams.

KnowAll:
The starter of the thread is a realist. The Governership of a state like Lagos cannot be restricted to only Yoruba's when there are 9 million non-Yoruba's living there and paying taxes.

ROTFLMAO@ See population stats. i dey laugh. You don become DDC machine. ROTFLMAO . This guy is not Yoruba. Stop associating yourself with Yoruba's. We dont accept bastards, everyone knows their father's compound.

KnowAll:
[b]If the PDP flop for the 4th time in 2011, I see no reasons why they should not call on other eminent Lagosians like Dangote. Yoruba has run 4 times but to no avail.[/b]

You are comparing yourself to Yoruba people. In their state, asking for rotational government. Your are definitely insane since you dont even know what party has the power. So you should be ignored. Everyone please ignore the fool from now on. These are the types that want to rule lagos.lol.

KnowAll:
If the King makers in Lagos and all the necessary stake-holders agree to his candidacy, why not, Dangote himself might not be interested but I am only saying it is within his right to run if chooses to run.

[b]I know u people want to intimidate non-Yoruba’s to submission. A city where an Igbo man Zik was head of the Lagos Council in the 1940’s but yet fast forward 50 years into the future he cannot run for councillorship, are we progressing or regression as a society.[/b]

Now we are talking, dont be ashamed of who you are. You dont even claim your father's state and are ashamed of it that is why you want so bad to be Governor of Lagos state. Abeg make everybody claim their papa name make we know who be who. You are shouting King Maker's. You think they will sacrifice thier ancestral positions for one animal that doesnt understand their culture and traditions. We also chase kind maker's from their thrones and they know that.

KnowAll:

There are so many lazy Yoruba’s on this thread, [b]no be na papa develop Lagos, Lagos was develop by the FG. How come only Yoruba’s want to claim it. It does not make sense.[/b]

Come and contest now make we see as you go do am. If your grandfather was not lazy you will not be in Lagos. Afterall FG has always given every state allocation to do what they want. What has your lazy, dumb and daft ancestors done with the money? That is why you rush to Lagos, cowards! You cant even face your state governors. All these animals from different creeks and bushes.

KnowAll:
Hausas/Nupe has always been an integral part of the cosmopolitan population of Lagos. If those early settlers can be accepted as lagosian why not the modern settlers.

Have you ever seen any of them become governor? Then an off shoot first generation from Kano. You must be crazy. Abi kano has seized to exist? Gather meeting with all your brother's and tell them that NA LIE, LAI LAI it can never happen. Forget it.

KnowAll:
Is Tinubu a lagosian, how come Lagosians kept quite when a man from Iragbeji Oshun state became a Governor in the state and not only that he is still controlling
The present Governor like a robot.

Do you know who his mother is? Whether adopted or not, she is a Tinubu. Are you a Lagosian? Are you a Tinunbu? Abeg go sit down with that nonsense. All the way to Hausa loun loun. We have not gone round all the Yoruba villages and town yet we should run to kano or enugu for governor. you dey craze

Awon ashiere wan fe wa gba eko. Se won lemi e. They think people will actually watch them come and contest. Who will vote for him? The hausa's in sabo? rotflmao. You guys should forget this dream it will never happen. When Almajiri's and kidnappers have killed your home towns you want to bring your nonsense by force to the southwest because they cannot live in their father's town in peace.lol. Una get the mind for South West politics? i dey laugh ooh. Knowall is not Yoruba, dont let him even bother you. He sounds like Aloyemeka.

Lagosboy:
I believe every Nigerian should be able to run for any position anywhere in the country, it is up to the people to either vote for him or not. Dangote has the right to run for the position in Lagos but i have the feeling he will place the personal interes of his business above 20 million lagosians interest.

Lagos rather needs a selfless, sincere , intellectual to take it to where it rightly belongs.

Your own belief. go back to your father's village and contest because you will lose. orget lagos for the next 100 years. See their big eyes, long throat.
