Why are you killing yourself over these people? This man is clearly doing politics here and to be frank, one warehouse is just peanuts to a governor of the richest state in Nigeria. One domiciliary account can take care of the whole thing jare. Are you sure it wasn't the said wife that gave him the idea in the first place?
what is killing there?

I've stated twice that I hope the wife was compensated.

Marriage is supposed to be unity, not one spouse demolishing the property of the other.

DeepZone:
Will it be right if he does the same to other people's property because those people have children to feed too?
Its not as clearcut as that. Of course if the structure is illegal, then it should be demolished along with others. But did he have to be the one to demolish it.

Would you support your husband if you had a business which he then reported to the authorities for being illegal, and had it closed down?

Its happened before, when someone's wife was employed by the govt and also running a private business venture, which technically wasnt permitted for govt employees. The husband had the place closed down, which to me seemed pointless and malicious. Also considering the fact that the wife was the one bearing most of the household and children's expenses anyway- the husband was busy doing his own stuff elsewhere.

What if it was Gov Amaechi's wife doing something like that to him?

I'm assuming she was notified beforehand and compensated sha.

These kind of things can cause friction in a marriage if not handled carefully.

Christianity EtcRe: Nigerian Woman Produces Her Children's Fingers In Court (Picture) by tpia: 3:50pm On Aug 02, 2008
my goodness!!!!! shocked shocked shocked

where are the juju advocates to come and explain this their sister's madness? huh





The following day she resumed her evidence and explained how her mother had been taken from her home and “murdered”.

The culprits or “forces of darkness” as she called them had then put a powerful “voodoo” curse on her and her family.

The defendant, who also claimed an “Auntie Marian” had hijacked both her and her daughter’s identities during the fraud, said the spell forced them into allowing their accounts to be used to receive some of the money.

She said the magic employed was so strong it caused one of her children to lose two fingers.

It was at that point she opened her handbag and pulled them out.
In any case, the woman may also be faking psychosis in order to get a lighter sentence.

He didnt have to start by demolishing his own wife's property.

God forbid, if something happens to him, isnt this one of the warehouses his wife will use to feed the children?

I hope she was compensated sha.

RomanceRe: Girls, Why The Protruding Tummy by tpia: 3:01am On Aug 02, 2008
na wa for some guys and protruding tummy.

Come to think of it, is it realistic to want:

1. Big behind and flat tummy. (Shouldnt big behind = big tummy? Arent they both fatty deposits?)

2. Flat tummy and big behind.

Seems like a contradiction, if you ask me. If you like big behind, then learn to accept big tummy. If you can die for flat tummy, silky hair, etc, then learn to like flat behind.

RomanceRe: Married And Still Searching by tpia: 1:42am On Aug 02, 2008
The fact is, a man who wants to cheat will cheat even if he's getting every single kind of sex at home. The wife can turn to acrobat, gymnast, professional stripper and have a PHD in Mouth Action- all these are not sufficient to keep johnny at home. undecided

Lets not fool ourselves here.

It all depends on the man's values and standards.

I'm sure this OP is another randy Thomas who entangled a relatively inexperienced woman, into his web of deceit he thinks is a relationship.

He knows why he didnt marry one of his Mouth Action partners, but now is crying about how he can't stand not getting a Mouth Action.

The wife has needs too- how many of them has the selfish fellow met? huh

maybe if he gave her something to be happy about, she'd return the favor. undecided

barry06:
Is it possible for a man to be married and still be searching for female friends?

Consider a scenario where a sexually active man get married to a decent woman who cannot manage to give her husband a blow-job when she is not
in the "mood".

And the man is sick and tired of MISSIONARY move!

what do you think of this matter?
what about a scenario where the wife wants her husband to give her the female equivalent of Mouth Action. He refuses because he "is not in the mood", or else considers it unmanly, unNigerian and unAfrican, since our forefathers never did things like that.

And the woman is tired of two minute sex all the time.

Is it okay if she looks around for a male friend to help her out?
FashionRe: Has Any Lady Ever Considered Where Hair Attachement Or Wig Comes From? by tpia: 6:26pm On Aug 01, 2008
in what way is Russian hair the finest hair? I havent personally noticed their hair being any different from other white people's hair. Maybe its just cheaper and easier to get Russian hair, thats all.

The longest hair comes from the mediterranean, middle eastern and Asian sides. Some Spanish people too.

The longest caucasian (or blondish) hair is debatable. There doesnt seem to be any noticeable or measurable difference based on country, that I can think of. Some people have longer hair than others, among whites, thats all.



@ topic: some attachments and wigs are made of synthetic hair.

bullet proof covering for a boy that has spent most of his life in igboho oyo state village and was just brought to lagos?lol
he showed me his back the very next morning because staffs,police e.t.c were walking up and down and he stood there talking and showed me his back and the marks
the reason why my story involves drivers is cause the man is into jaz big time and he is like in his fifties now but has been with us for well over 34 years and used to be a political thug,so we tease him about the stories and he tries proving it to us,same as the opc people
either he was only grazed by the bullets or see other examples here (note: am not saying he was wearing diamonds):

The women’s corsets were lined with diamonds. During the execution these corsets served as a sort of shield against the gunfire, which had amazed the murderers, because the bullets seemed to bounce off the women.
The "Yurovsky Note" further reported that once the thick smoke that had filled the room from so many weapons being fired in such close quarters cleared, it was discovered that the executioners' bullets had ricocheted off the corsets of two or three of the Grand Duchesses. The executioners later came to find out that this was because the family's crown jewels and diamonds had been sewn inside the linings of the corsets to hide them from their captors.

wiki
According to Yurovsky's eyewitness account, Alexei, three of his sisters, Dr. Botkin and Alexandra's personal maid, Alexandra Demidova, survived the first wave of bullets.

This surprised the commandant because they had aimed for the heart.
It was even more surprising when the second attack still did not kill Anastasia and two of her sisters. Instead, bullets were bouncing all over the room.

It was also surprising that the bullets from the pistols ricocheted off something and jumped about the room like hail. When they tried to finish off one of the girls with bayonets, the bayonet could not pierce the corset. Thanks to all of this, the entire procedure, including "verification" (feeling the pulse, etc.), took around 20 minutes.
Only later, when the men were trying to dispose of the bodies, did anyone realize why it had been so hard to kill Anastasia and her sisters.

When one of the girls was being undressed, it was noticed that the bullets had torn the corset in places, and diamonds could be seen in the holes.

http://www.lawbuzz.com/tyranny/anastasia/anastasia_ch12.htm
Types of bullets/shots:

The flexible baton round is the trademarked name for a "bean bag round", a type of shotgun shell used for non-lethal apprehension of suspects.

When fired, the bag is expelled at around 70-90 meters/second; it spreads out in flight and distributes its impact over about 6 centimeters² of the target. It is designed to deliver a blow that will cause minimum long-term trauma and no penetration but will result in a muscle spasm or other reaction to briefly render a violent suspect immobile.
Whittington was injured in the face, neck, and upper torso. Whittington was reported to be in stable condition at Christus Spohn Hospital Corpus Christi-Memorial and had been moved from intensive care to a "step-down unit" on Monday. Doctors had decided to leave up to 200 pieces of birdshot pellets lodged in his body rather than try to remove them. Each pellet is less than a tenth of an inch (2.5 mm) in diameter. Because of their small size, it is hard to pinpoint the precise location of each pellet with medical imaging.

dr kitaun- I heard the same story as a kid.

My cousin's friends told her they were going to a religious service, and after arriving at the venue, they saw some cats at the door who asked them if they didnt know they (the cats) had their own meeting at that same venue.

Its always "they said" ie hearsay.

I've also heard the one where a university undergraduate was studying late for her exams. A day old chick suddenly appeared out of nowhere and told her off. She packed her bags and left the hostel the following day.

Check out the meaning of "urban legend".

Naija no dey get fairy tales? Thats what all this stuff is supposed to be sha. undecided

But anyone who thinks they are hearing a cat talking like Puss in Boots, might want to see a doctor. Or make sure someone isnt playing a trick on you.

@ okija: why are these stories always hearsay?

What's so unusual about a goat appearing in the middle of the road. If you live abroad, don't deer appear in the middle of the road and cause drastic accidents? It happens all the time. I could search for some links if I were so inclined.


The driver claimed that he ran into a goat which appeared out of nowhere and now he is seeing a dead woman
"the driver claimed" is what the whole story is based on. A dead body in what seems to be an advanced stage of decomposition. Smacks of premeditation, to me. Either someone (not referring to you) is lying or someone was set up. Or people were wrong about either the smell or the time of the accident.

So how do you get justice for murder powered by juju in the court of law?
until people who use juju as a cover for all kinds of crimes from murder to flagrant disregard for human rights, are prosecuted for the public to see, there will be little justice for victims.


Most times people are either too scared or too gullible to even want to look at juju with a critical eye. And the advocates try to discourage others from doing so, thus perpetuating the cycle.

Africans seem to be genetically wired to swallow anything that smacks of religion, hook, line and sinker.

I'm not sure but "saved through childbearing" here may refer to having a safe delivery. ie as opposed to having complications or a fatal one.
