No retreat, no surrender. They should go back for a re-sit, all the best. We just hope it is not BBN or social media that caused their failure...

tonquendo4u:
I watched. And he said the truth. Italy is compact at the back. They don't need ur possession. They are always calm and not in a rush. And they get results

In a football match, there are usually two sides- The better side and the side who wins. Sometimes, a team can be both.

In this case, Spain was the better side, but Italy won. Even the commentators and analysts across the world attested to this.

I watched every second of the game intensely and that is my opinion.

redcliff:
the end of the natch decided the better side. how can you implicitly call italy who has never lost a man in 20 something games the weaker side. there must be something they know how to do well. Italy may not give you the best of entertainment but they were the tougher side.

Did you watch the match?

PrudencyFeats:
I dont think they deserved to play in the final. Just that Italy went on defense.

Spain only won 1 match in normal regulatory 90 minutes all through thier euro 2020 games.

Such team with that record will be unfair to play in the final of Europe elite competition... Such record is meant for the underdog 'whipping boys' as surprises.... but Denmark has better records in Euro 2020 than Spain.. ...worthy to play in the final.

Sometimes, teams perform better and step up their game as they progress in a competition, no one saw Spain standing up to Italy as they did today.

Chelsea's performance was also not fantastic when they first won the UCL under Di Mateo, but they did perform better as they progressed, defeating Barca and Bayern, nobody saw that coming.

Simplythebest:
Better side only for tonight. But right from the beginning of this tournament Italy deserve to be in final.

I am referring to tonight's match.

What they have both done prior to this night does not matter to me, I don't like past glory.

Spain played better but Italy qualified. That is the irony of life, the race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong......

In my opinion, Spain deserves to go through to the final, they were the better side, but hey, life doesn't work that way.

Congrats to Italy.

Sheikh Gumi should know their whereabouts, they should ask him; after all, he is the self-appointed negotiator-in-chief for bandits and herdsmen affairs in Nigeria.

My ex, we dated for 4yrs before she married without telling me, I was surprised. Though she married cos of poor background, and luckily, the husband trained her up to the level she wanted, and she's doing well. We reconnected after 10ys online, according to her, she missed me a lot, and was always seeing me in her dreams making love to her. She has never loved her husband since she got married. We later met after eleven years. It was like she saw an angel.

Y'all see why a woman should not be trusted.

Someone accepted you, not minding your poor family background, made a sacrifice, trained you for 10 years, gave you good education, and yet, you went back to your EX....The husband is somewhere now, thinking he has a good wife, not knowing he's got a hoe at home.

Chief simp.......
I greet u Oo.......
What I did wasnt good but wat she did was abi??
Don't be a fool......
Where exactly did u read I was tying her down??

Please ask him that question again and again.

When she did hers, it wasn't wrong, now it's the other way round, it's all suddenly wrong. ...

It's like a woman has never shown the guy pepper....

The lady has no feelings or conscience, see her posing like Kanye never existed in her life, to her, divorce is normal.... no emotion whatsoever attached to any marriage.

Heeiiiissssss!! Whether stolen from Twitter or not , whether plagiarized or not ,, the Koko is that he has used this story to unravel the advantages of daily savings in safe otherwise known as kolo .. if only I have been using this method ever since I started hyping at the club I'm workingb in since last year instead of waiting till I can go to deposit my spray monies and tips in the banks thereby giving these daughters of Jezebel the leverage to scatter my money with their unending billings , I would have been a rich man by now ..

In fact next week Monday I'm going to purchase mine ,, OP God and all my ancestors bless you for this post ,, chai I don lose guard tire oooo

Don't mind anybody, please go ahead and purchase the kolo...God help and bless you.

Lovethaa:
I bought this saving box (kolo) around may for my personal use. The plan was to open it at the end of the year but I decided to break it today to see how well I'm doing ...


. Although most times I always forget to put money in it cos am not used to it ..


See what I found today ..I'm just about to count it I kno it is not plenty but it feels like a gift to myself ..who still keeps kolo ?...

Wow...nice one.

That's the power of savings....little drops of water makes the mighty ocean, just as little leaks drain it.

Please keep with this good habit.

The Nigeria I know there are lots of good girls, desperate girls even that are ready to tattoo “taken” on their foreheads or commit murder to get wifed.

For a man pushing forty, I found it sad that he was ready to call off his engagement because she visited her ex. If you are ready to marry a man or woman, you should have some faith in their character and such things shouldn’t be grounds to break up UNLESS you confirm something sinister did take place.

I simply feel the could have expressed his displeasure with the visit and she could have apologized and noted it as part of the things that trigger him. I honestly feel this story is made up and will not be acknowledging it anymore. It’s too unrealistic.

True, but we all have different perspectives and react to issues differently with various degree of tolerance levels.

He should just come to Man. City, he will get a heroic welcome, Pep is earnestly waiting for him.

Galaxybar:
Obodo Nigeria.

Really? But your comment doesn't make you pass as someone who stays in Nigeria....or perhaps, you are oblivious of what is rife in the Nigerian society....the more reason why you see so many comments which are in tandem, the many, many, many bad girls have given the very, very, very few good ones a bad tag...

Galaxybar:
Maturity is truly not by age.

This is what happens when there is no real trust or love between a couple. How can grown man and woman have an engagement cancelled because of a visit to her ex boyfriend? Has she shown you signs of being a cheat or are you judging her by the true state of your own heart. Her phone number she’s had probably for years you want her to change it? Why? So she can lose friendships and business opportunities because you are insecure? Has it occurred to you that her stubborn stance may have been due to anger from your distrust and unfounded suspicion?

The worst that should have happened was that you express to her that you are not comfortable with her hanging out with her ex boyfriend in such a private setting and promise not repeat the actions since it makes you uncomfortable. A heart to heart discussion with a peace compromise. That’s all!

Some advice I’m even seeing here. Calling her all sorts of derogatory names. Anyway, they’ve warned me about how mentally juvenile some nairalanders can be. The first page of this thread says it all.

If you’re reading this and you truly love her and she’s never given you any reason to doubt her, act your 36 - 40 years of age and have a mature conversation with her. Then both of you should set boundaries and move forward in love, trust and understanding.

Please permit me to ask you a question: In which country do you reside?

Belafonte:
I don't understand why Nigerian men in the diaspora think it's a good thing to come marry wives from Nigeria. It is always a foolish thing.

Nigerian women are extremely sexually active, and I can just imagine the body count of a 33 year old Nigerian woman. This kind of woman cannot stay unsexed for more than a few weeks at most.

Stop fooling yourselves. If she's not a virgin don't bother coming to pick a Nigerian wife. If you cannot marry a woman in your immediate environment, you don't deserve to have a wife.

Hopefully, other men learn from this unfortunate episode



You're either trolling or naive. The mature thong for him to do is actually cancel marriage plans and move on. The woman has no business visiting men behind closed doors, least of all her ex boyfriend.

Exactly my thoughts, why not just get married to someone there in the US. Most women taken abroad turn out to be untamable beasts, because of their laws that favour women. They suddenly realize the freedom and power they have and this makes the matter worse.

Inasmuch as I think the clamor for Biafra should be considered; you cannot disrupt the peace of a country and expect the government to fold its hands....

*THE CONSPIRACY*

Brenda's boyfriend (Yes, Boyfriend) is related to Chidimma... in fact, her paternal uncle - Izu.
Izu and Brenda have been going out since she was employed at NNPC, and they're really in love.
Usifo is the only one standing in their way, as they planned to get married after the divorce.
Yes, Brenda and Usifo's marriage had been in tatters for some years, hence their decision to live apart.
Meanwhile, Izu have been footing the University and pocket money bills for Chidimma, since she got admission to UniLag, as his senior brother (Chidimma's father couldn't afford her welfare).

Brenda needed a good evidence of cheating in their marriage, in other to push through a quick divorce.
Izu volunteered to use Chidimma, and arrange a setup relationship between her and Usifo.
At first, Chidimma refused to go along with this plot, until he threatened to withdraw his financial support, and ensure she's sacked from UniLag.

Chidimma reluctantly agreed, and a chance meeting was arranged at a big party, in honour of one of Izu's wealthy clients in Banana Island, in January.
Usifo fell for the pretty damsel, and started dating her.

The plan was for Chidimma to lure Usifo to a set up destination, pre-wired with all sorts of monitoring and recording devices.
This will be a hardcore evidence Brenda needed to push through her divorce.
This was also why it was Chidimma that chose the meeting pad, rather than Usifo's normal arrangements.

On the faithful day, everything was set as planned, and Usifo arrived to meet Chidimma at the pad.
They ate, drank and discussed as usual.
Then Chidimma took the first round of drugs. Please note that Usifo doesn't do drugs, but allows her to smoke, as it turns her on.
After that first wrap, they made passionate love, and resumed their drinking.
Meanwhile, Chidimma started smoking more, as she was nervous.
She later passed out.

Usifo continued with his drinks, waiting for her to get up so they can have more sex.
As the waiting and drinking continued, Usifo decided to be mischievous, and started going through Chidimma's phone.
He couldn't believe the stuff he's seeing in Chidimma's phone.
There were countless number of porn movies, nude pics, and most startling, his own pics with Chidimma, in various places he can recall they've been to in Lagos.

Drunk and in a wild rage, he woke her up, and started questioning her.
She wasn't responding well, because she's still groggy from the drugs and alcohol.
Usifo now resorted to shouting and slapping her, in a fit of rage.
Chidimma staggered out of the bedroom, and into the kitchen, where she stumbled upon a kitchen knife.
She only wanted to scare him, and stop him from hitting her.

Chidimma, inadvertently stabbed him the first time... but Usifo kept on chasing her, even with more anger.
She then began to wave and stab indiscriminately, in a bid to stop him.
He unfortunately was struck fatally by one of the stabs, and slumped to his death.

On realising what just happened, Chidimma screamed aloud... and panic steps in.
She quickly called Izu, and informed him that Usifo was dead.
He calmed her down, and stepped into action.

Izu immediately called his boys that set up the place, and they quickly rushed to the scene.
They whisked Chidimma away, and dismantled all their gadgets.
Izu informed Brenda of the tragedy, and they quickly came up with a plan.

They were to take Usifo's wallet and all valuables on him.
Then Brenda provided Izu's PIN, and the guys went and withdrew cash from Usifo's Bank account, via ATMs.
The idea is to make it look like a robbery went wrong.

Current Events:
Following Chidimma's arrest at her father's house, and subsequent confession of the murder, all hell will soon break loose, and further arrests will happen before the end of the weekend.
Currently, the latest news has it that Chidimma's father and the owner and management of the AirBnB have been arrested.
Chidimma is scared, and will reveal everything soon.
Her life is also in danger...!!!
This is an unsubstantiated information from another platform and to me its plausible.

Wow....but how did Brenda know Usifo's card PIN since they had not been together for about 4 years...Well, that is why it's called a conspiracy theory anyway.

I don't support Ataga's infidelity, but he should have gone for an exposed high-class chic brought up in wealth...This is what happens when you go for people way below your class...may his soul RIP and may God give his loved ones the fortitude to bear his transition.

Kingcalls:
Women are the most unappreciative creation on earth... this is the same man that sponsored the movies that brought her to limelight...took care of her kid from another man and gave her the celeb lifestyle... but as money come de hard for the man ,she started 4kin other men... even if u wanna leave , always appreciate what he did for u...thats the difference between a man and woman... men naturally remember those that were there for them when no one was there...but women forget u once they see what they want coming from someone else... thats y investing in men will always b a better deal than investing in women .... women are tooooo selfish and unappreciative

Gbam.

Well said.

So sad.

May God grant her eternal rest and give her loved ones the fortitude to bear her transition.

Dear Nairalanders,
I have an issue that has been on my mind for weeks now. My fiancé and I have been dating for over three years. I love him and he loves me too. We are physically attracted to each other. We’re both catholic but since I graduated, during my service year I gave my life to Christ, got saved and left the Catholic Church. So I’ve been a Pentecostal Christian since then. He on the other hand is still catholic. I subtly try to nudge him to consider getting saved, i.e acknowledging Christ as lord and savior and becoming born again but he is content with his laidback Christian life.

Earlier this year, he asked to meet my parents and I let him. My parents like him especially because my younger sis is married and they have been waiting for me too. They’re glad I’ve someone. However, after the introduction,I regret it. I’m now certain that he’s not the one. I think about my spiritual life and how lukewarm he is about the things of God, I think about kids and how we’ll raise the, with such differing views about God and I’m discouraged. I feel like I’m settling because he checks all the boxes on the checklist of physical attributes. Another mistake I made is, I didn’t pray about this decision and that worries me because anything that involves him,I just act with pausing to ask God, but I always ask God about other aspects of my life. So it’s like my associating with him is a minus for my spiritual life and that’s a huge cause for concern.

At this point, I want to tell my parents I am not convinced it’s him but I’m afraid of the disappointment this will cause. *sigh* I’ll appreciate your thoughts, comments, criticisms...

My dear,

I understand your point 100%, others might not.

You will get to a level spiritually that it is only someone on that level that you can flow with.

Imagine Pastor Adeboye getting married to someone who is not on his wave spiritually.

Pray to God and let him direct your path.

The kind of person you marry determines how well you would fulfill your purpose and destiny in life and the spiritual controls the physical.

If I were to advise you, I would ask you to discuss with him how seriously you take your spirituality and how you want him to take it too, if he insists on being lukewarm, then get someone else that is on or above your level spiritually, this is my opinion.

I wish you all the best.

Cheers.

Cousin. Your cousin (also known as first cousin, full cousin, or cousin-german) is the child of your parent's sibling. You and your first cousins share one set of grandparents. (A "cousin-german," by the way, comes from "cousin Germain," which is French for first cousin.)19 Feb 2021

You and the child of your parent's cousin are second cousins. The two of you share at least one set of great-grandparents in common. Think of them as first cousins, because they are in the same generation as you, but with an added generation between yourselves and your linking ancestor.19 Feb 2021

First Cousin Once Removed
If your first cousin has a child, that child is your first cousin once removed. "Removed" refers to a difference in generation from you and your first cousin. You can also think of it relative to that shared set of ancestors that you share with your first cousin, which would be your grandparents.

"Removed simply means they're not in the same generation," Cowan says. If that cousin once removed has a child, then that child is your first cousin twice removed, because they are two generations removed from you and your first cousin.

This "removed" business is often confused with labeling a relative a "second" or "third" cousin, which is inaccurate. "A cousin of any degree will always be in the same generation as you," Cowan explains. "As soon as you start adding generations, like children or grandchildren of a cousin, that's when we get to once removed, twice removed, and so on." If you're still confused, you can watch this video from Ancestry for a visual explanation.
