It's not the scenario of take care of our struggling family. It's just Christmas. Nothing more, nothing less. And it won't cost a fortune in the Spirit of the season to act as a father when opportunity calls. It's not give us your family. It's just Love. Nothing more.

RedPanthar:
Why not tell him to grab a knife and go kill them.
Simpleton.

Get lost.

RedPanthar:
Continue deceiving yourself. You can deceive gullible people but not me.


You're the breed of men that are so overly possessive you don't want your wife to be around anyone of influence especially her family besides you.


YOU COVERTLY HATE YOUR WIVE'S FAMILY AND SADLY YOU'RE NOT DISCREET ENOUGH TO HIDE THE DUSGUST. YOU CAN'T STAND THEM TO TOLERATE THEM LET ALONE TO EMBRACE THEM AS YOUR OWN.

I PRAY YOU KNOW THE FUTURE AND CAN SEE IF YOUR KIDS WILL NEVER NEED THEIR HELP FOREVER THAT WAY I CAN ASSURE YOU TO CONTINUE WITH YOUR ANTICS. UNTIL THEN, TRED SOFTLY.

There are a specie of men that hate it when a woman's family or friends is around her. And use all sorts of antics to act victimised.

Only God will deliver you from you and teach you different ways of doing things. Your children would grow up too and become adults, should brothers not visit sisters and vice versa. When it's time to shine with opportunity some men act coy.


7k will enough rice and small meat to entertain your guests for the short duration they will be around.


Be Christ-like, Christ-mas is about sharing not only about eating rice.


Stop deceiving people in the time being. You know it's hatred you have for her being around her family and not about money




Should anything happen to you tomorrow, those are the ones that would stand for her, your kids and even you. And it's how you draw them close with what you have now that will make them endear to you should the chips fall down on your end however plenty your tiny peanuts maybe as of the moment.


You will know them ladies. They are the kinds that assume thier wives fell from heaven. Once they get married to them they don't want their wives to be around anybody, friends or family.



There's also female versions. These women marry them give them the entire world. They will never be with you or love you atall and will only stick around cause of favors they get in the marriage. They won't give happiness and after a few years leave you down the line.


It's a personality-complex. Open your eyes to find these kinds out to do the needful.

Justice Okon Abang is doing this because Maina is a Northerner. If Goodluck and patience are living freely. Maina should also be free. After all he worked under Goodluck. Probably he siphon the money for him. That's why he let him go free

American and hypocrisy, they didn’t send army to southern kaduna or send us help when we needed it the most in fight against terrorism, but are quick to send military to a country screaming for real change

Before the arrival of the fifth aircraft early this morning, the other four aircraft have been flying to and fro Lagos, Abuja, Calabar, Uyo, Port Harcourt. Please which other flying do you need? Is it the Uruan kind of flying?

Chinkos99:
Am not mad
I can't/don't want to marry him
But I just like him being around me till he gets married to another girl, not that he pays my bills, but because I feel safe and secure around his arms

RuudVanNisteroy:
By the time they retaliate and ban Nigerians from immigrating to UK and Canada that is when we will realize the ramifications of attempting to fight with nations that stick to their laws. Why try to force a country to accept an airline to land in the country,owned by a wanted fugitive, who stands to financially benefit from the evacuation?

Canada and UK are one of the few countries left open to Nigerians, and now the Reps are looking to close that door . I just don't know what your writing here. Haven't read and heard that he was cleared by the US government from all charges, so what are you saying again. Please stop commending what we have here.

SARS and this animalistic shooting of already apprehended criminals in the leg. the only time a security personnel can fire at a criminal is if he is armed and a threat to life, or in flight and may escape if not demobilized. not when u apprehend robbers, put them in handcuffs, then you go ahead to fire at their legs.
