Politics › Re: Prof Chinua Achebe Is Dead! by vanbonattel: 10:45am On Mar 22, 2013
jentlsoul: My father too die when I was in SS1 thank God now I am a graduate so therefore every one must test dead. To me is not a surprise, by the way who is this chinua achibe(the one that wrote that useless things fall apart) that all igbos are saying it can't be him as if is not human. Igbos no dey lean ur ojuku die, azikiwe die etc so what can stop this man not to follow suit.
Another nitwit seeking for attention, please read one of Achebe's books to brush up your grammer.

Av googled the rumour and all i see are questions no confirmatory report. Pls joke with bad news like this for ur personal gain. I repeat, lock and delete this thread!
They are praising him, raising his reputation to high heavens, Achebe should be celebrated abeg, dead or alive.
Politics › Re: Prof Chinua Achebe Is Dead! by vanbonattel: 10:26am On Mar 22, 2013
If this man truly died, the nation should roll out big drums and music sets to celebrate this intelectual giant. In life and even if he dies, he will live in our minds as one of the greatest men ever. I wish it is a lie though.
Politics › Re: Yorubas Are Ungrateful To Obasanjo - Ahmadu Ali by vanbonattel: 10:07pm On Mar 21, 2013
The only time Nigeria will be great, is when yoruba stop being afraid of Igbo domination. They are scared stiff and everything they do is aimed at stoppiNg Igbos. But its not working, Igbos rule!!!

Its not gonna change anytime soon.

Even if its the pope himself that endorsed Orji Kalu, they are just staining their reputation. Orji uzor kalu is just an ordinary common criminal. It is like that in every record book and will continue to be that way, Kalu is a leper politically.

dayokanu: No need for military
We have embraced democracy and The constitution has provision for dealing with a non performing president.

if thats Iheajirikas plan to get power, its Dead on arrival

We are not in 1966 where some people used flimsy excuses to topple a democratic govt and install their tribesmen in power
We are still in 1966 when a section of the country has been holding everybody to ransom with their born to rule mentality. That 'I must rule you and slow you down' mentality is still around today as it has been since independence. Let us continue to suffer it, anybody wey run, him fada!

Like always, you cannot handle the rest of the country on your own, your only hope is your miserable and hopeless brothers from Iraq. The population of northern Nigeria is less than the population of Lagos alone.

Look for a woman from a different field, younger too. You will have your respect and your kids will benefit from the different background she came from.

Alcohol helped me disvirgin that pwetty hot babe that refused my advances. It took 2 small stout and she was moaning coyly as I drove into her parking space.
She confessed the next morning that everything was dull and hazy while we did it. Drinks are good for "special services"

biolabee: Please note some guys have said no to the joint account suggestion at least for the time being

Also if it's important for the man to sleep alone, he should have engaged his wife adequately.
These have been said in as many words by both male and female commentators
Joint account? Except a family account in case of uncertainties.

biolabee: ID I see you
Good morning

Carmi I feel you and it's weird to me too but he should have brought it up during cortship days at the least so the woman knows what she is in for
We dont really know what made the man change after the marriage, maybe the hygene level of this woman dropped to very low standards after she is securely married, and the man is finding the smell offensive?

There we go again, attacking the messenger while ignoring the message totally.

Why should we go so far as to condemn another person just because they have a contrary opinion from ours?

We have left the topic untreated and are now attacking the persons behind the posts, I think this forum is a place you can make your comments and others will have the maturity to accept it or walk away, no need for name calling. Sometimes we kill a healthy debate with unecessary verbal attacks on others.

[quote author=i.]Madam ID, chill with the insults! Can't remember insulting you so insulting me doesn't cut it!
My problem with most people here is: can't somebody have a decent conversation without the use of insults?
You asked for Proof of the death threat? Why should she post it here?
With this kind of attitude of most people here A̶̲̥̅♏ sure someone will shout that it is a Hoax!
Left to me there are many ways of dealing with issues but witchhunting and insulting everybody with a different opinion doesn't work! You might shout all day but we can ask ourselves if the strategy is working?
Madam Id, I have no beef with you, but I think we should cut some slack here! Death threats were allegedly issued what steps were taken to confirm if they were true? Some things shouldn't be brushed aside becuase we feel she has wronged Aigbe![/quote]Provide proof or jump into the lagoon, shopclue is a cheap crook, thats all you keep reminding us everytime you open your anus, sorry mouth.

masu: why did afenifere reply this man.

cant the yorubas keep shut for once.
not every one that talks you need to reply
When you cannot use your hands, what else is left if not your mouth?

I support Afenifere on this one, how can Ahmadu Ali call yoruba people gutless cowards even after they joined them to fight the civil war. So unfair of the northeners.

I still think this has to do with our inability to recognize our differences and respect them, even as we try to make our marriage work. I would have been softer on my stance if the case is that the man denies her s*ex or intimacy. But if he can fulfil his emotional responsibilities to his wife, for crying out loud, why not allow this man to retire into his bedroom and spread his legs and fart in private! Do you even know there are some level of fulfilment if you can fart louder without anybody near you to feel offended tongue

candygosh: U sound like the husband cos u know it all.

Btw. Let's roll this way first : if I were to be ur sis n I had dis same problem.
What would u av me do?

That's how abusive relationship starts.
Another thing tells me that man is. Gaygrin just my thoughts.
Or he's retarded...cheesy
You see! The man is now ga*y because he wants some space! But the woman is not g*y if she decides to abandon her kids to go work in distant locations! Double standards!

byvan: They have to reach a compromise,is that so difficult??My hubby love it loud,I love it low.He tunes to normal if we are riding together,that's compromise.It musn't be the man's way,neither must it be the woman's way,they have to find a balance.
Find which balance? You have to get the woman to listen to bush traditional music or make the man listen to slow foreign music which he may not even understand the wordings? I tell ya, same bedroom is sometimes like a prison.

van bonattel: Supposing the man loves local traditional music and plays them loud and hot, while madam loves foreign gospel tunes played cool and low volumes, how will the bedroom music be played,

A. The man dictates what gets played
B. The woman dictates the music
C. They throw away the bedroom music sets
Anybody home?
Family › Re: Seperate Room For Husband And Wife. by vanbonattel: 2:19pm On Mar 18, 2013
biolabee: Excellent and true
It is possible for a same room couple to ignore each other for more than a day at the least but seperate rooms compound it.

It should however not be a life and death issue
I think you are wrong, same room in a quarel is a catalyst for trouble, one partner can detest the other so much that he/she packs their bag and walks out than the thoughts of sleeping on the same bed with the person who brought you so much pain.

If they had different rooms, she/he can lock each other out till time and reason brings them back to their senses and they can negotiate again.
Family › Re: How To Deal With Infidelity In A Marriage by vanbonattel: 2:10pm On Mar 18, 2013
Pardon me if you think I am wrong, but are we not overblowing this infidelity thingz in our times? This issues have been there since long time immemorial, men will always stray, since more young women has decided to wear less clothes. Women will also accept advances from married men, since they must make money and connections to compete with their men. Why are we acting so surprised about infidelity or allocating serious thoughts to it? Whyhuh
