[b]Hope, it's all for the best! But what about Benin Asaba Road up to the Niger Bridge that's been crying out for reconstruction/maintenance since INDEPENDENCE - 1960? Almost 50years, yet nothing had been done on that road. Or should it wait for another 50 years for the Federal Govt to realise the logistic importance of that road to Nigerian economy. Certainly, they know but it directly leads to Igboland no bi so For that reason, it doesn't really need any consideration let alone reconstruction, abi?? Imagine the accidents and loss of lives on that road, no one cares about it - do they?In terms of these Federal Government contract awards, many peoples on here have complained about the continuous award of contracts to a "Non Runner". I can not understand why waste our money, giving contracts upon contracts to inept and inefficient construction companies of this nature? Why? Shouldn't we strive for Nigerians gains/benefits instead of losses and misery? Wouldn't it be much beneficial to Nigerians to see these contracts awarded to reputable construction companies like Julius Berger and other equally efficient foreign construction companies that would deliver quality goods in prime time, instead of these HOME BABIES that are not only sucking their mothers dry but also, biting off their nipples. Isn't it time, those in power examine their conscience if they have any, in their consideration of what is best for Nigerians in this aspect - whether QUALITY OR QUANTITY? Obviously, in their views Nigerians deserve QUANTITY hence the awards of contracts to inept HOME COMPANIES. Also, some contributor on here are making excuses for these construction companies in the light of their obvious incompetencies. I can't stop wondering how they mean and why the construction companies could not deliver the goods in 30 months as scheduled? In my view, these excuses are absolutely CRAP! How do you mean? Excuses like the climate, rainy season etc are considered a hindrance in completing these tasks as mandated, how? If these companies are unable to deliver on the mandate due to the above excuses then, our assumptions about them are correct - they are INEFFICIENT and not worthy being called construction companies let alone worthy of our contracts because, they can not compete on any level and, if they can not compete why give them our contracts In the West, construction companies are much busier with construction work in the THICK OF WINTER MONTHS than any other times in the year ASK ANYONE who knows exactly where they've been and understand the people they came to visit (not everyone that comes here knows the people anyway and don't bother with those living in the CITIES and never goes anywhere 'cos they don't actually interact or know the people they came to visit let alone to tell you what's going on in the country side. So, these excuses about rainy season, flood, harmattan etc are rubbish and if these construction companies continues to complain about Nigerian weather, I challenge them to come over here and see the weather in ACTION. In spite of the bad weather, white people care about their country and do their best to make life much easier for everyone. Besides, we the "Migrants" also have to go to work to make a living irrespective of the bad weather so why can't those in much fairer weather do better than us instead of giving crap excuses? The answer is pure laziness and nothing more! So, construction companies in Africa and in particular, Nigeria should be grateful for the weather we have and stop giving lame excuses for their lazy a-ses and get on with the job of sucking our money without delivering the goods and, no one to query why not ![]() ?[/b] |
[quote author=bjcole link=topic=347596.msg4873610#msg4873610 date=1257516226][/quote]This is Naija, stop comparing us to those westerners, success is desirable and loving, i dnt think anybody hates it, so women should check themselves, something must be wrong. what about female bosses, dnt we see how they behave in offices, trying to force their authority on everbody. Be Rich and humble, dtas the code and you get all the attention [b]Now, we can see what your problem is - EGO!!! Sorry indeed!! Well, if this is Nigeria, you might as well throw away that mobile phone in your hand and head back home to the village because that's where your kind lives, period. People who think they way you do, that's where they operate! You see, you don't understand work ethics. Because, your are a man in the office your female boss should take orders from you or give you audience to make decisions in her office, is it? Naaaaaaaa! You do as you are told! Let me open your eyes - she is your boss for a reason - she has the qualities, skills, knowledge and on top of that your Corporate policy has given her the powers to manage the affairs of the organisation hence the powers to order you to do thing for the benefit of your organisation obviously, you don't like her asking you. In fact, you would have preferred a male boss but unfortunately, there are no male bosses around so, do as you're told and stop winging! If you don't like taking orders from women bosses then go home and rust! Why, because its a woman telling you to do things. You see, if you don't like taking orders from a woman boss, RESIGN THE JOB AND SET UP YOUR OWN BUSINESS, simple! As long as a woman is in power she will rule, just get use to that, ok! This is 21st Century! No one would have thought Obama would be in White House and there you have it, he is! So, stop winging and do what your boss ask you to do irrespective of his/her gender. After all, you're there to make a living, isn't it? So, how come this power competition? The answer is Ego - the only disease that is destroying Nigerian men, if only they'd get sense![/b] |
Pharoh:[b] Yes, you cited this post - Quote from: !amebo no1 on Today at 02:28:46 PM ofcourse, ask genevieve nnaji why shes not married? @topic But may I ask you, did Genevieve tell you and the poster that she can't find a man to be married to? Obviously, not. It's from your own assumptions of the reasons she hadn't yet been married up till now. You see, you should all get it off your heads that marriage is compulsory - Marriage is not compulsory, ok! It is choice! You do it if you like. Probably, Genevieve like Oprah has no intentions of getting married to anyone. They have partners and they are happy and contented with that except people like you. Like I said earlier only confident and secured men can handle successful and strong women - not small frightened rodents, ok! Is about time men should understand that their wives success is ultimately theirs and no one else! Afterall, who married this successful woman? Is it not you? Thus, the success is yours and only yours and no need to be afraid of your own achievements! In comparison, Genevieve you mentioned can't have been more popular or notorious than our Christiana Essien Igbokwe in her hay days in the 70's, ok! That's one of Nigerian daughters that put Nigerian women on the map. Respect!!!!!!!!!!!!! During her time, she was written off, up and down the country that no man would dare touch her with a badge pole let alone marry her and even if they do, she would not have children (abi, you don see her boys haven't you ). However, a brother with foresight saw his chance and moved in - the rest is history. Today, Christiana Essien Igbokwe is a successful mother, artist, actress, business woman and more so, who is the looser now People like you who put women down. Stop being negative about successful women they are created for a reason and they are meant for special husbands and not for riff-raffs [/b] |
Well, it depends on what you mean by successful? Are you analysing success in terms of material acquisitions, life achievements, human resources---or? How do you mean? That aside, but I can say oh yeah, millions of them are chicken when it come to "Successful and strong women". Unfortunately, only a handful of them in the likes of, the Duke of Edinburgh, late Denis Thatcher, President Obama, Stedman Graham (Oprah's life partner) and my own very partner etc, these are what you can call "CONFIDENT AND SECURE GENTLEMEN" in the right order. The woman that would frighten them with her success, power, strength of character and beauty is yet to be born until then, don't even bother with the rest! |
becomrich,:Wow!! Very nice of you Becomerich! Thanks for such a sweet melody! And how creative a man, you are. Can't stop singing and humming it ever since I set my eyes on it. Once again, thanks and God bless! |
becomrich,:Hi Becomerich, Thanks for a very good rib cracking essay and powerful imagery. I have no intentions to be married again as I am happy with the one I'm with. When no longer happy will let you know, ok! Again, thanks for opening the eyes of some people back home thinking of a wonderful good life in the West maybe, they would learn something from this your experience and that of others you interacted with. Certainly, on seeing these jail cages and the rabbits out of them cueing for a meal or something, any criminal back home would rethink his behaviours - I promise you. God bless you for posting this for Nigerians because, you love your people and you don't want any one of them back home to end up in these cages. Cheers! xx |
[b]Hmmmmmm! This is evil! Listen, it seems you are possessed. I believe a demonic spirit is stiring up this emotion in you. Believe you me, you are playing with fire! But how are we sure this hadn't taken place already? It's seems you are trying to work our minds, are you? Again, for a sister to be thinking like this, there must have been some element of jealousy and competition since childhood between the two of you but listen, let childhood competition stop at that. A lot of people has warned against this and the implications. It would backfire to the point where a lot of family members both sides would get hurt and the damage it would cause, would never be rectified. The entire family could be destroyed as a result. Also, be ready for the isolation your village people would throw in too - they could cast you out! Please, pray hard and confide this dilemma to a Christian Ministry (if you have none) to pray for you and help you bind this lustful demonic spirit urging you to try this. It must be driven out of you and bind for ever in Jesus Mighty name, Amen! Please go now and see a Church pastor/prophet or anyone that can help you deal with this before it is too late. Your sister loves you and trusted you and if she can not trust you, who could she trust Please, don't betray her!There are so many men in this world to fancy not your sisters husband please! He has been taken by your sister so, go find your own and leave them alone![/b] |
*Hauwa*:Yes, you can! Taste as good as fresh but always soak up in warm water and re-wash a couple of times before using. Sometimes, they come with the bitterness still left in it, due to lack of thoroughly washing and I hate that. For me, that is extra hard work to get it thoroughly cleaned to my liking. Please, do check before you use for cooking. Good luck! |
[b]Well, my mother was a teacher and this tread is reminding me or bringing back memories of her - she died 8yrs ago. I still could hear my mum saying that as if it was yesterday. Bless her heart! However, mum insisted on cook, wash/clean and tidy up as you go because it saves time and effort. On tasting the soup, she insisted to taste with a tablespoon instead of the one you are cooking with for hygiene reasons - no one wants to leak you saliva, did you hear? She would enquire?. Hygiene was so important in the home I grew up in - you can't get away from it, not with parents like mine - both were enlightened (mother a teacher and father a Nursing Educator). It followed me even in my own household right now, it's unavoidable what you pick up in childhood and what childhood upbringing can do to your lifestyle. Even now as an adult, we go out quite often but I rarely eat outside as I insist on eating my own home made meals good or bad! At least, I'm sure how it is prepared and who prepared it! Scary, to see other people's standard of hygiene and eating your own is much, much safer - no doubts! I'm so grateful to mums all over the world for instilling in us these basic survival skills and I'm not going to say, especially their daughters because, their sons too should be taught how to survive as kitchen skills are important to both male/female offspring. Kitchen is not meant for women only. Just like women, men have bellies and eat much food than women therefore, should learn how to cook, period.[/b] |
sweetliet:Really ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ? Wash your hand in the soup after adding maggie cube? What a kitchen skill! No wonder my belly to pain me here. Whatever happened to HYGIENE AND CLEANLINESS IN THIS HOUSEHOLD Can someone help re-educating this person and don't blame mother please! Probably didn't have much education herself but the young lady needs plenty of it, help!!! |
[b]From the story, the marriage is fraudulent to start with. If by arriving in Nigeria and you were asked to marry him then, it is a forced marriage hence, conducted under Duress. Therefore, can not stand in any court of law and no courts will validate it. You have good grounds to annul the silly marriage and the reasons are: A) you are a visitor - visiting for 1million times if you like, it does not matter. B) Obviously, you visa to Nigeria did not say 'Travelling for marriage' as to show intentions of getting married, did it? C) you don't know anyone in the country and have no relatives there and if you do, so what? D) We hope you did not pay for the marriage and if you did so what? You are forced to and would do any thing you're asked to do in such circumstances and in a foreign country where you have no no one for support. So the bastard can go to hell! Just get a good Lawyer and terminate the baggar marriage! You see, people don't visit Nigeria to get married any how. There is nothing wrong in visiting someone you met either Online, physically or by communicating with them in any form/shape or various means/mode e.g. email/text msgs/letters/pictures etc and whether on a short/long term or off/on basis. Communicating with someone you fancy is not a crime and there is a difference between fancying some and falling in-love with the person therefore, there is some thing wrong in being forced into a marriage you'd no intention or plans for and certainly don't love the guy. So, no HELL WILL FORCE YOU TO BE IN MARRIAGE YOU HAVE NO LOVE IN, period. Please, ensure you terminate the silly thing and put the schemer to shame![/b] |
lostgirl:[b] Are you sure your marriage has been irretrievably broken down? If you are sure in your heart of hearts then, get a Barrister in Nigeria and serve him his divorce papers. But be ready, the fight is gonna be lengthy and cost you some Naira as Nigerian Laws do not support quickie divorces (but no skin pain if you can afford it and as long as you find happiness in the end). Another thing to consider, Nigerian men are not averse to women divorcing them because, it has always been a culture where the men leave or divorces the women and the women are left 'holding the baby'. Remember, Nigerian men "EGO's" are higher than Mount Everest - Don't you ever forget that! And now, you are divorcing him - EGO has now been dented and he is like a wounded lion so be careful! Keep him, his family and friends at a distance if I were you. As a foreigner, focus on your Barristers, your good friends and pray that God find you a man that truely loves you. Good luck![/b] |
tensor777:[b]Now, let's get this straight! No one is stopping you from HATING anyone if you like - that's you prerogative! Homosexuals have every rights as everyone else to live a happy, harmonious and secure life and with who they want to live it. This behaviour has been around for a long time even in Biblical days yet societies all over the world have been unable to eradicate such behaviour, just as they'd been unable to stop, prevent or eradicate those you listed above. If you like kill them all as you and other heartless beings are proposing here but I can assure you, more would be BORN by next year. You see, the evils you listed here (stealing, perjury, fraud etc) could be said to be crime/sins committed against God and Society of which those affected directly suffered emotional, physical pain etc therefore, are justified for a redress/remedy by society. How then, has homosexual lifestyle directly inflicted pain, injury or stop anyone, getting employment, education, worshipping whatever gods they chose, joining whatever political system they wish, supporting any Football team they wish, driving the smartest car in town if they so wish, living in Hollywood if that's their aim, educating their children abroad if they want, enjoying and living their lives the way they want and having sexual intercourse with anyone they wish? In fact, some are even having sex intercourse with animals in this country (Nigeria) yet, the same society you are urging here to destroy homosexuals did nothing to such people practising bestiality and there you are, calling for the destruction of another human being just because of their sexual orientations? How hypocritical ![]() Please, pray for God's divine interventions in these matters instead of calling for the killing of another human being as God himself abhors murder (Exodus, Chpt. 20 v. 13) of any kind let alone, a pre-meditated one as you are proposing. He will not forgive you - think seriously about it! Again, I say, they are not stopping you from living your GOLDEN LIFE so, "live and let live". Everyone is accountable to God Almighty one day, and only he can judge, no one else and stop stiring up crisis that never was![/b] |
[b]Hmmmm! For we not to get judged, we must not judge! Judgement is for God Almighty. Remember, he created homosexuals too and the only one QUALIFIED TO JUDGE and CONDEMN them - not YOU and I. What if your son or daughter or your only child, niece and nephew is a homosexual, what would you do? Kill them? Disown them? Exclude/Isolate them? Spit at them or what? All these are wrong and won't change a thing in your life or their lives. So, be tolerant, inclusive and accommodating of others with difference. Even God did not exclude them in his creation, why you? Abi, no be God created them and put them in this WORLD called EARTH as you and I? Or did he put them in different globe? Therefore, if you can honestly answer these questions then, you'd know there's nothing to be afraid of, for JUDGEMENT IS FOR THE LORD! To me, God himself would have to explain this CONDITION to us. Why we are all the same in image (God's image) but different in our characters and behaviours (understand the devil has a hand in these things but I need to learn from the creator himself why? Sure, people all over the world would like to know too). And for those, who are unforgiven about this, remember, all sins carry EQUAL PUNISHMENT, no matter how grave they seem. So, if you'd never sinned then, you're most qualified to condemn this group otherwise may I ask that we, live and let live!!! [/b] |
spoilt:[b]Well, if she was, the story on her list of ex-boyfriends says differently and you too can check. For all I know, the press at the time indicated she'd already had the baby before Seal was in the picture. Maybe, I'm wrong! Check this part of the story in the list below which suggests baby had obviously, been born and I quote, "Around the same time of the birth, Heidi began a relationship with musician Seal. Heidi Klum and Seal married May 10, 2005, on a beach in Mexico." Click this now and check for yourself, ok! But whatever the truth, she has a baggage like everyone else which unlike other men, Seal was prepared to overlook to be with her and that's quite nice of him. Considering he's not quite handsome himself, why wouldn't he overlook all these warts and all to be with such a gorgeous woman, abi? But, may I ask, how many Nigerian men would cope with a woman with this shopping list of ex-boyfriends and still went ahead to marry her? Na waoooooo! [/b]http://www.heidiklumfans.com/relationships.php |
[b]Well, it takes a real man to take on this kind of challenge but be assured, men have always done it all over the world. It might not be happing at all in Africa but it does in other places. It's a human thing! If men would cast away their egos and empathise instead, you'd all know there's nothing there to be insecure/afraid of. I know of two here, the men are fantastic fathers and the kids love them because, they are the only father they know and as far as they are concerned, these men are Daddy! They'd not spare anyone where their dad's are, and that's love. I assume that's what everyone want, isn't it? To love and be loved but who says, it's guaranteed that your own biological children will love you much and better, turn out right and care about you far much better ? There's no guarantees for that! With these children, if you remind them of their biological father's they sure don't want to know, lai lai!! So, it's good to take care of someone's else's abandoned/rejected child or children if you can. It can be rewarding as well as a blessing in disguise.As someone was talking about Seal and Miss Klum, it's true she'd already had her child before Seal came in the picture and I'm sure he takes care of her child just like his but my question is, if it was a Black woman, would Seal had taken her on? Or take her to Everest-like mountain in Canada to propose to, the way he did with Heidi let alone, marrying her with all her baggage? I doubt. Besides, Stars marriages don't last, anyway. But, a relationship between a Nigerian man and a White woman is one thing. Nigerians love foreigners more than they love themselves and that's the truth. Understanding a Nigerian man's psychology, he would do everything he possibly could and normally, wouldn't do for a Black woman to ensure his marriage to a White woman works but whether the White lady is prepared to reciprocate accordingly and for a long time is another query? Most see marriage as 'fashion' it changes with season! And, we'll keep watching their space for good news, won't we? Abi? So if you could, do it for HUMANITY if nothing else |
POSAKOSA1: POSAKOSA1:[size=24pt]If you have eye problems may I suggest you see your ophtalmologist maybe, he/she might help! Have been trying to avoid you all along, on here. But your lack of intelligence wouldn't let you see reason. Enough is enough of your bullshit about my texts here, ok! It seems you want a fight from me? Now let's do it maybe, the experience would teach you a lesson like it did to others before you and the more you shout the Bigger they get, trust me! Bastard idiot![/size] |
Akanbi_edu:[b]So, you understand there is something wrong with your country? That there are severe risks to take if challenging your system but, why? Is your system a Democracy or Autocracy camouflaged with Democracy or what else? If a Democracy, why such risks? You understand Nigerians have no clue about Democracy - a country where people are afraid to protest peacefully without getting killed by the powers that be or imprisoned for a very long time without trial. And, there you are calling them cowards! Shows your sense of fairness and justice! You are disgusting! In writing this and challenging Nigerians abroad to come home and protest makes me sick of you! If you don't know what to say, just pass and stop your provocative commentaries here. Because, you are unaffected by all the sufferings in Nigeria or should I say, you and your family are so well cushioned from the effects of poverty and misery of millions of Nigerians therefore, Nigerians can all rot if they like. Well, I have news for you and those almighty powers! Tell them, no one system last forever, their day shall certainly come and it's gonna be miserable for them. They think they've got all the powers therefore, on top of EVEREST (not for long) and who should challenge them? Never mind, the Almighty God is living above Everest and their day shall surely come, not necessarily in the way you and I might expect but in many other ways even the trillions of our Naira they stole would not save them and their family/friends. There are certain things money can not buy and it can not buy nor guarantee continuous good health! We all know that, don't we? Abacha didn't know his time was up and when it came - he was history! So, keep supporting those doing all the wrong things, ok! KNOWING THE RIGHT THING TO DO, AND FAIL TO DO IT, IS A SIN IN THE EYES OF GOD and you will be answerable for supporting evil. You can all run but you can not hide! Imagine you knowing how corrupt the system you support is, a system that disregard all Democratic principles, known to all that you are challenging Nigerians abroad to come home and fight - would they ever get justice, if need be?? After all, it was corruption, unfairness, injustice and hardship/suffering that drove many Nigerians away from their own country that you are mocking them to come and challenge, you're disgusting! There you are again, trying to present your so called zealous Nigerian Police as the cause of the iniquity in our system. No, they are not rather mere product of the system. Surely, it was this cruel system that set them up, abi Therefore, an integrated part of an atrocious and corrupt Nigerian Political system, isn't it So, why present the Nigerian Police as the almighty powers that be when actually, the Nigerian Police is only an Appointee by this cruel system and has no such massive powers. Their Oga does what your Oga tells him to do, else? So, if he tells him to kill everyone in the street of Abuja, Lagos, Benin, Enugu, Portharcourt, Kafanchan etc he would certainly do so in order to keep his job, no bi so o o! Assuming Nigerians abroad accept your challenge and come home, have you considered the Public Order chaos and consequences, that might cause? Have you? Abi, you and those you support would be the first to pack your families in the Private Jet we - the people paid for and disappear out of the country to your safe havens in Switzerland, no bi so o o ?? And poor Nigerians would then bore the brunt, isn't it? Imagine, a land people are already suffering and dying, you are inviting more chaos, that suggest the kind of a person you and your kind are! Sadist![/b] |
Pharoh: Yeah, the Militants are doing it their own way, why? Because, the people you are here supporting, created this CHAOS in our country - so as to cause confusion and get away with our money. But, who is sure you are not one of them and if not, keep supporting evil, evil will follow you!! |
Yes, imagine a young child learning that money grows on tree. That he can stuff such an amount of money in his school bag and head off to school. Imagine, the children they are raising? Very, sorry for them! |
Eziachi: [b]But what were they doing? You mean they were only retrieving our £4,000.00 without further injuries causing him severe pain and paralysis, eh? They should have given him a life long injury, where he would have been in a wheelchair or stretcher for life and get fed via various choices of feeding tubes e.g NG Tube (nasogastric tube), (EN) enteral or (TPN) total parenteral and (PEG) percutaneous endoscopic gastostomy feeding respectively. Take a pick for him?? I mean, a situation where someone will get to wash him and wipe is arse for him for the rest of his/family life. Certainly, that's how I feel about them and I wish them all nothing, but DEATH and it will happen. I hate them for ruining our country. Anyway, I so much thank the Nigerian teenage students for what they did so far. Let them keep coming here to flash their ill-gotten money, and satan will have their heads one by one. [/b] |
mr.official:[b]Yes, I did! If you look closely, you'd noticed I interjected briefly where I said, that it is a blessing and not a jamb question. Sensed you'd prefer I say more on this topic? Well, its really annoying saying much to deaf ears when Nigerians could not even do any thing to rid themselves of these SUCKERS!! We are a nation of BIG MOUTHERS and DO NOTHINGS - that's what we are known for. If 'twas a case or topic involving women wanting EQUAL Rights from men/society, y'all would have been up in arms displaying your machismo and querying who gave us right to talk. . Now, I challenge you all (who call yourselves MALES) to show the same venom by physically going up to Abuja and drag Yar'dua and his henchmen onto Nigeria's HOT SEAT to answer the people instead of shouting women down when they ask for their rights. So, go show your male ego at Abuja Capital and let the world see, you can actually change the Country instead of talk, talk and more talk. . Anyway, Nigeria's oil is really a BIG, BIG BLESSING and God knew why he endowed Nigeria with this resource. Not because, Nigeria is Righteous country but because Our Heavenly Father knows she deserve it else, it wouldn't have been allocated to Nigeria. It would have been given to another country but unfortunately, it seemed cursed by tribalism, religious differences, inefficient and talentless leaders lacking creativity and foresight. You see, none of these leaders have achieved anything they can be proud of, in Nigeria let alone on the International platform. Since they are not proud of themselves, how could they be proud of their own country in order to seek her better future. They don't love themselves and can not love our beautiful Nigeria blessed with OIL, SAND AND SEA + MORE, MORE AND MORE!!!. Very sad, indeed! |
saxywale:Is it how you perceive it? This serious issue everyone is airing their views about the reasons our dear Country remained undeveloped despite the huge resources we are blessed with, seemed like a jamb question to you? Quite sorry! Nigerian issues are important to Nigerians and everyone should part-take in - and contribute in anyway they can and, not airing irrelevancies. If people don't have anything to contribute, why not PASS the subject instead of unhelpful comments. Yes, the poster posed an open question but certainly, it's not a jamb one. It would have been more democratic if the poster had given us room to express ourselves rather than a 'yes' and 'no' answer. It should have been posed in such a way like this: ''Yes'', ''No'', ''Don't Agree'' ,''Not Sure'', ''I say nothing'' etc that way people would have been in a better position to voice their opinions well at leas. A 'yes' and 'no' answer is quite restrictive. |
[b]You see, it's not only being married to so many women at a time - that's simply an easy option. It's also about the implications of such marriage, eh Imagine, the sleeping arrangements? Who should be first and last obviously, not I. And when this guy is busy with Jennifer on Saturday night, what about Alice, Carol and Margaret, what would they do? Wait their turns? Or sneak out to their ex-boyfriends Jumai, Henry and Emma to get their Engines warmed ready for their husbands, or what? I wonder! Obviously, Jumai, Henry and Emma have other women too and if care is not taking, those women have other men somewhere too and the list goes on. The sad implication is, in trying to satisfy their sexual urges with an unavailable husband, these women could end up contracting any kind of disease from outside? These days, we have HiV Aids, Gonorrhoea, Syphilis, Chlamydia etc and this can have a devastating impact on the entire family. Has anyone considered the implications or are we being led by emotions or cultural pride? Imagine, being the innocent wife in this marriage and happens to contract/being diagnosed with any of the above diseases obviously, you would be devastated. It's very sad indeed! With time these ladies will understand.[/b] |
sandas:[b]Absolutely right Sandas! You got it! I have never known of Wife and Husband swopping until I arrived on this Island. They are still doing it as we write this! I can't imagine how I could share my own beautiful and God given Willy with another woman, otioooooo! My pride and joy which my husband has vowed upon his life belongs to me, with another women? Known or unknown?lol!!! Naaaaaaaaaaaa! Don't even think it! But, how can I love my husband this much and, allow him to go and share such intimacy with a stranger? It baffles me! Never, never, never! To be honest, I am still wondering how some of these White women do it. Strange!!! But that's not to say, if one should look closely that, one would not find pockets of Black men/women here and there practising it. They certainly do as our people are good at emulating/copying any thing they see in the West. If some of them would participate in party which is equally another name for 'wife/husband/girlfriend/boyfriend swopping' what makes anyone here doubt this? Hell, no!!![/b] |
eldee:And that's the DOUBLE STANDARD that is deeply routed in African culture hence, Africa justice and fairness, eh? |
[b]Faithfulness or unfaithfulness has no bearing on sexuality, race, ethnicity etc of a person rather, it is an ethical issue. First of all, ask yourself how ethical are you in your daily dealings and activities with other people? And has your wife, husband, girlfriend, boyfriend got ethics themselves? Or are they one of those that usually move the GOAL POST to suit themselves when it matters? Yes, we have a moral issue here to address. You see, what's moral to you can be regarded as immoral to another person so we have no authority to actually justify what is moral on the basis of our own cultural beliefs/values i.e. moral values of the culture/society we were born and brought up in. White society has their own moral values so are Black and Asian societies. As for the question whether White women are more faithful than Black women? Let's put it this way - having lived in both societies and have seen alot with my own eyes my answer is, 'NO'. Faithfulness depends on peoples ethics - their moral principles. Did I base my judgement on that? Yes, I would say that, White women are even more unfaithful than Black women. My reason is that Black women have strong moral principles coupled with strong Religious beliefs than White women would ever be and these are handicaps on Black women. They curtails her urge for revenge hence, her moral obligations to family and society comes first than revenge. For example, when a husband plays out and unfortunately has a child out side his marriage though, his wife or any other women would feel badly hurt and heart broken in this situation, a Black women would certain cry and kneel down to ask God why? She would open her heart to her mother, sisters and other Black women to seek their views and support. Obviously, they would advice on the positives and, its up to her to decide. She does not go on the rampage conniving, scheming and sleeping around in revenge of that, but most White women would certainly revenge not only to revenge but revenge to an extent where it has an ever lasting impact on their husbands. He will suffer emotionally!! There are several examples here where these White ladies acted in revenge of their straying husbands. A notorious one was in the early 1990's when a television presenter here Anneka Rice's husband made his best mate's wife pregnant behind her back. What did she do?? Well, she lured the guy into her bedroom and --- a baby appeared. Now, you can see they were all keeping it in the family. No, Black woman would do any such thing rather, I can vouch some Black women would certainly sleep around to shame their husband but not the extent of producing another human being out of it, just to spite their husbands. No!!! Another thing, White women are known for doing (please, anything you do - don't mess with them in this area!) in this situation is, secretly luring/sleeping with every male member of their husbands family including their fathers' in-law into her bedroom in revenge of their husbands - some even went ahead to have their brothers' in-law or father in-law babies out of it just to teach their husbands of the implications of such behaviours. Imagine, your wife with your brother's or fathers child ) That's cool, eh Think about it when she goes about keeping it all together in the family for you!In a nutshell, Black women have very strong ethics/moral values compared with their White counterpart as Black women would seriously/definitely take into account the impact of such behaviour on themselves, their children, entire family and Black culture/society at large, before even attempting it. Everyone knows that White culture is constructed on the idea of "SELF" they are selfish people hence the saying here 'Look after number one then, number one would take care of number two'. And that number one is 'YOU and I' (It means self preservation - think of yourself first). So, you see if you look after number one then, number one would be in the right position to look after number two, three and four - hope you got it! That's the way they are programmed to think - we don't think like that. To white people, if you do them - they would certainly get their own back, period! They are very selfish people, and Black men who are with them understands that and knows the button they must not press - White women keep them in line. There are bullshits, Black men would throw on Black women but dare not on a White woman and that's true. This marginalisation of Black women furiously angers me about our men. Well, it's up to Black women to demand that respect from their men by saying "DON'T EVER TREAT ME LIKE THAT AGAIN!" and mean it. That way, our men will begin to respect us and see us as equals. It's up to you ladies![/b] |
say-d-fact:Wow! You are original and you've made my day with your rib cracking jokes! You're the funniest man I'd ever seen on here. Please consider, stand up COMEDY for career. Sure, you will make!! You're absolutely hilarious!! Keep cracking those jokes!!!! ![]() |
[b]Just move on and STOP thinking of her/him!! Afterall, you came into this world alone, you weren't born a twin and if you hadn't known it, twins do go their separate ways, get that. So, nothing is destined to last forever therefore, you are not destined to love one and only one person in your whole life and vice versa because, things do change in life. I could hear some people criticising and saying but marriage is for live - yeah, it is if that's your BELIEFS AND VALUES but does everyone share this your beliefs/values? Even the man/woman you married may not share your beliefs/values so, don't assume. If you live in the real world then, your responses to situations in your life should be real. Based on the above assumptions, it looks as if we are all destine to love one person in our whole lives - no, no no!!! Because, circumstances can throw any thing at us thus, prevent, limit, restrict and hinder our chances of discovering other loves of our lives hence, our inability to access other parts of our society and the world at large in order to discover these people. Then, you would have known that this lass/fellow you are talking about is not the 'BOMB' you think they are and, not worth dying for. Be open minded and explore other areas/parts, you would realise there are greater loves out there and what you've missed. You see, God created most things in twos and he knew why? So, we all have more than one person to love at any one time, in our life time. However, in situations as this ,we need time, patience and prayers to find and claim the happiness that rightly belongs to us. So, spread your wings hopefully, you'd find a love greater than your previous one and remember, things happen for a reason. Maybe, that's the route God chose to navigate you out of a tricky situation you hadn't yet foreseen and this could be a BLESSING in hindsight. Therefore, in every situation (positive or negative) thank and praise God! Move on!! Good luck![/b] |

For that reason, it doesn't really need any consideration let alone reconstruction, abi?? Imagine the accidents and loss of lives on that road, no one cares about it - do they?
