I don't see these islamists condemn Hizbollah, I don't see them condemning Hamas unprovoked attacks on Israel. They only raise their ugly heads to attack Israel whenever it responds to their aggression. Erdogan doesn't even how he will end up. I don't know if he is a president or a dictator. |
Romance › Re: There’s One Thing My Girlfriend Has Never Done, Yet We’re Planning Marriage by themanderon: 6:36pm On Apr 13 |
CYBERWEAVER: I am currently planning to get married. I’ve been with my babe for about a year now.
After several consultations, we agreed on a wedding budget of about 3 million Naira.
But I keep asking myself one very honest question: how do I commit that kind of money to someone who hasn’t really shown the same level of effort back, even in something as small as 5k, despite earning a little?
Asin, I never smell her 5k since we started dating.
At this point, it’s not even about the money anymore. It’s about intention, balance, and simple acts of kindness.
Even on my birthday, I didn’t receive a gift from her, and that stayed with me more than I expected.
I’ve never had to deliberately test her money, because genuine care and small acts of giving usually show themselves naturally over time.
To be clear, I’ve been carrying most of the financial weight in this relationship, and there’s hardly anything tangible she has ever done for herself without at least my 50% contribution since we met.
I don’t complain, but I also don’t want to ignore what I’m seeing.
As a responsible man, I’m trying to be honest with myself before I take a step I can’t easily undo.
So I want to ask people who are married or have real experience: if I go ahead and marry in a relationship where this is the current dynamic, what should I realistically expect in marriage?
I’m not trying to assume the worst, but I also believe experience speaks louder than hope. A girl that loves you will be willing to spend more than half her income on you even if she earns one thousand naira. A lady that hasn't spent much on you is a red flag. If you are the one bearing the whole financial responsibility then be ready to bear till you leave this world and I am telling you nothing but the truth. What does she bring to the table that made you settle for her? Is it the sex? That one has no value and will fade away. Think about this very well before you make the plunge. I I know many people that made this kind of error and they are in deep regrets today. A lady that loves you will spare nothing to be with you. You want to marry an obvious parasite that sees you as a poverty escape route. |
Foreign Affairs › Re: Blockade Of All Ships Entering And Leaving Iranian Ports Begin Today - US Navy by themanderon: 6:13pm On Apr 13 |
seunlayi: For those who do not understand and need further explanation, I would like to explain it as thoroughly as possible. Since I have taken the time to learn and seriously study the topic, I am sure that anyone who listens to this explanation will be able to understand it easily. I will try to use the language as easily as possible and try to avoid technical terms that may confuse it so that everyone can apply it and convey it correctly. First of all, you need to understand that everything in the world, both natural and artificial, always has a place to go, nothing happens irrationally, everything is logical and scientifically explainable, and as a person who has studied and reviewed this data for a long time, I am ready to explain this to you in the most detailed way. Explaining it scientifically requires the use of proven data and principles. The principles that I will explain are not just weightless words or stories that do not support it. I will try to illustrate and use scientific reasoning so that everyone can easily understand it and certainly apply it. I assure you, no one can explain it as easily as me. Whether it is for physics, chemistry, biology or even mathematics, I am ready to give you examples from everyday life. But in this case, to give you a short summary and a simpler scientific explanation, I have to say that it has the most obvious explanation, and the answer is that USA use the opportunity of the ceasefire to study Iranian weaponry Arsenal more and the hideout of top figures while coming out hiding because of the ceasefire. This next stage will be brutal on Iraq after USA systematically have a new reason to nail Iran. The straight of Hormuz is an international waterway. Oman, Saudi, Bahrain... all have same right to it They may think they went to sleep because of the ceasefire, but they don't know they have used it to gather enough intel to cripple them. The Islamic government may have shot itself in the feet with this ceasefire. Anytime the west retreats, it is to go and fortify themselves to crush their enemies. |

Here is a clear, verified list of major infrastructural projects currently being carried out under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu across Nigeria: 🛣️ 1.

REGIONAL CONNECTIVITY PROJECTS Sokoto–Zamfara–Katsina corridor roads � Arise News Enugu–Port Harcourt road projects � Facebook Multiple state-to-state highway link projects ⚖️ SUMMARY 🔑 Key Focus Areas Massive road network expansion (top priority) Strategic economic corridors (North–South integration) Improved power supply & gas infrastructure Expansion of ports and digital connectivity 📊 Scale Hundreds of road projects Multi-billion-dollar flagship highways Nationwide infrastructure spread ✅ Bottom line: Tinubu’s infrastructure agenda is heavily focused on roads, transport corridors, and economic connectivity, with supporting investments in power, ports, and digital infrastructure. If you want, I can break it down by region (North, South, East, West) or show which projects are completed vs still ongoing.
⚖️ FINAL ASSESSMENT The administration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu is widely seen as: Reform-driven and bold (structural changes) Focused on long-term economic recovery But socially painful in the short term If you want, I can break this down further into sector-by-sector achievements like infrastructure, education, security, and digital economy (with more detailed examples). And what about the failed Buhari years you guys defended so vigorously? Was it not the same bullcrap you guys are saying today that you said about him? If another totally inept idiot takes over tomorrow people like you will still be here to regale us with rubbish. The minimum people are asking for is to take them back to where the country was before your masters utterly ruined it. You people should be ashamed but since you have no atom of shame try to buy one. |

Any new significant escalation will draw those two into the war And be Sure , the US won't escalate but the same can't be said of Israel Didn't the Americans say they started the war cos Israel was going to attack Iran? Which message? You are ignorant of international politics. Russia and China wouldn't dare risk an open confrontation with the US. Don't fret yourself. China can try in Taiwan if they feel they have arrived. Russia still has its hand full in Ukraine and wouldn't want an escalation. America lives for war.

What he said is simply the truth. He told Ayatollah last year that he was the one that stopped Israel from taking him out and they thought he was joking. Now he stepped aside and Israel blew him to smitherings. Now he is telling the remnants of the Islamic regime they are only alive to negotiate and they will still think he is joking till he finishes them off. I laugh when I see people saying Iran won the war. They simply can't see the bigger picture because their minds is small. Do you actually think if the US wanted to completely destroy Iran it would still be standing? Nay. What they did was just pressure Iran a lil bit. If they continue on the path they have be towing then it's bye bye to them. |
