I am thinking maybe marriage, family and child bearing got the best of Lauren…


As for wyclef I don’t think he under achieved.

Music and entertainment generally is about time.

If you say wyclef under achieved then you have to say the same for the timberlands, the missy elliots, the jarules, even at the local scene where is 2 baba etc. where are all of these people today.

I think in entertainment no one stays at the top forever. Young blood springing up every single day to challenge your spot.

Only a few sustain the momentum at the top for more than 4 or 5 years.

The thing is they did shine and performed when It was their time in the spotlight. The audience have a very short attention span also.

In my opinion wyclef is a bigger star than Ed Sheran though too!

You've said it all, you just explained the thoughts that flashed through my mind immediately I read that line he wrote about Wyclef being an under achiever. One shouldn't even say that about Lauren.

Nokia X2 can run both PES & Real Football multiplayer Multiplayer was a big deal back then and its the reason I contributed my pocket money and other errand funds for like a month to buy London used Sony Ericsson K700 for #2500

At the end of the day Sony Ericsson was the brand I chose to settle for. Their camera was mad, plus the audio, the ear piece sound ... It was mad!

tomi4life:
I am 35 and my wife is 29, we have been married for 6 years now, we have 2 children a boy and a girl. We didnt court much during our courtship because of long distance.

I really have a problem with my wife and not sure what can be done to address, now I must be very honest am not sure there is anything I can do I just want to use the platform to vent my frustration.

My marriage has not been very good, lately myself and my wife leave like room mates and not lovers, despite the age difference between me and my wife she doesnt really respect me. For the 6 years we have been in marriage 3 things have caused all our fights: cooking, Sex and finance

My wife rarely cooks in the house, things around welfare are not taken seriously, actually in a week, my wife can cook for me just 1 time. She cooks for the children and baths for them daily, we also have a help who does alot of cooking. She rarely askes me what I will eat, honestly I always have to go to the kitchen to sort myself, sometimes I buy food outside from eateries and bucker. Sometimes when she cooks it usually very late 10pm. I have complained severally and what happen is she tries to change, after a week, we are back to the same state. My wife can do without cooking for me for weeks. It really really pains me cos am a foody and I knw hw my mum treats matters of food. she is this person that forms busy, either she is busy with work or some church activities, she always has an excuse. She goes to work only ones a weeks the remaining 4days are remote. To address this issue I now order soups from major restaurant outlets, An example is today easter sunday, I had to tell our maid to prepare rice for myself and the kids, cos my wife was in church, we all went to church but she decided to stay back, knowing fully well no food was prepared.

Sex: [/b]our sex life is very boring, when we got married we always fight about sex, cos anytime I ask for it she always complain she is tired, so what I now do is ask for it only sat morning, brethen this is only day I get sex. If I miss that day, it is still next week. We sleep in different rooms, she sleeps with the children in the master bedroom while I sleep alone in another room. I can tell most time she doesnt enjoy it and never ever askes for it, I always ask and initiate it. She just lays like a log, even kisses is a no no, except she is really on, which rarely happens.
[b]
Finance: I have always earned more than my wife, when we got married, I was earning 3 times what she was earning, but she changed jobs and got promoted severally and we were earning the same amount. she also does alot of side runs where she gets 200-300k monthly as side hustle, there was even a time she was earning more than I did. I dint let it bother me I continue to foot the entire house bills. 95% of the enitre house of comes from me, she only pays the maid , buys cooking gas and my sons diaper. Every other thing in the house is covered by me, house rent, school fees, project, all the bills. I give her 75k as food money monthly. I have continue to question her why I should give her food moeny if I still have to end up going out to eat. I think the only reason she sometime listens to me is cause i still provide the finances for the house. The time she was earning more I could see how she belittle some of my decisions. I just prayed to God, cos I noticed the respect was gone, when I talk to her about her role as a mum and mother to the home, she says she is working, she is busy, I mentioned to her that the money she works is for her, she doesnt share with the house, I have never asked her for it and am not against her working, she however should not neglect her responsibility as a mum. That my role as a father, God helping me is to provide, and this is why I work. I also noticed when I got a new job and my salary increased she kinda off felt jealous she didnt tell me but i noticed it, she began to aggressively look for jobs.


I really dont think we have that initmacy, we are just there, my wife cant come to tell me anything bothering her, she keeps to herself. Funny part is she is a very religious person, my wife will sleep with bible on her hand, wake up with bible pray and serve in various church unit, I however dont think she really understands what she reads. She also has a very bad temper sometimes when I raise certian issues, the ways she talks sometimes I have to hold back a response if not the whole thing will escalate. There are days I will raise certain issue up, the next things she mentions is " let just dissolve this marriage as it is not working" sometimes , I just refer her to her bible cos the utterances that come out of her mouth makes me doubt her understanding of Christianity.


I have never assaulted her, we have nt had any physically fight, what happens is most times when we have issues, I dont speak to her for days, then she come back apologizing. Sometimes when am wrong I also apologies.

Am not saying am perfect, I know there are areas I can do better, like in the buying off gift, I rarely buy her gift, not cause I cant but Cos she earns well and I believe she should buy whatever she needs with her money my wife earns approximately 800k monthy.


I expect my wife will support me but it like she is stressing me. when we go see my parent or our parent, it is all smiles, they dont knw hw stressful their daughter is, she even forms trying to serve me food and all.

Dont get me wrong she has some good side, but this thing is really getting into me. I dont drink, smoke or womanise, divorce is also not on the table for me.

Before I finish reading that line you wrote that she doesn't respect you even considering your AGE DIFFERENCE, guy girls 10 years older than us are our elders. I'm surprised you don't know this fact. What a girl of twelve has known and done, her male 'mate' of 21 never even think am. Ehen, let me go back to reading your story.

Ceenachi:
Shey my eye Dey pain me
Where is the look alike

Omoh guy, you sure say your eye no de pain you? Bros, the resemblance clear wella na.

Okunga:
Hmm ok… What’s the % of this alcohol again? … ok on a serious note Nairaland is a very toxic platform when it comes to the comments. You are all gross with hate from the Tinubu supporters to the Obidient supporters. I can’t even read past the first comment on most post because of insults from both party.


On a sincere note you are all bunch of losers making stupid common sense out nonsense.

Comment section used to be the reason the few of us enjoy Nairaland and all thanks to you educated nonentities it’s ruined.

Once again y’all can kindly phuck off!

I'm telling you bro. I was exited when I first discovered Nairaland after ditching one other site I used to be a fan of until it became toxic. These days whenever the wind blows me to that once very popular site, on almost every topic you either read two, one or no comment at all. I guess everybody got tired, both the sensible and toxic ones. Unfortunately, Nairaland too is towing the same path.

apache4:
Over my dead body will Tinubu become my President

Let god take my life on the day of his shameless inauguration

See how some people trust politicians to the point of sacrificing their lives for them. How sure are you that if your preferred candidate had won you would be guaranteed a better life? I have never wished anybody dead in my life... Wait, I'm not the one wishing here. May you die by suicide tonight. Idiosomething.

NobleSeed:
you dey smoke Igbo!!!
You won band okada? So you will now Left the people who are affected with nothing?
Creating problems instead of providing solutions to problem...

Ah ahn, bros, you read the post at all?

mrvitalis:
Meanwhile umiah commissioned 16 flyovers , best state owned airport in Nigeria
Biggest mall in Nigeria
New government house
New university
New stadium
New teaching hospital
New market
Far too many roads to list

With less than 15% of wike revenue without borrowing

Meanwhile Ortom commissioned...... Wait, let me check first. Wait, just wait. I'm coming.

Afonja007:
ortom battles fulani bandits for 8 years don't blame him

Mchew, what he made you guys to believe while covering up for his massive failure. You think this Fulani thing started with Ortom? Oga, Fulani/farmers crisis started long ago, Ortom made the hatred worse. Sadly most Nigerians know little about history these days.

N3TRAL:
Datti is a terrible character.

He is an extremist with an evil heart.


Even as a senator, he was the only out of 109 to propose a bill for homosexuals and others under the LGBT umbrella to be killed.

He literally gave a lengthy talk on the floor of the national assembly about why gay people should be killed. His colleagues, fellow legislators, who are extreme in their own way were shocked at the level of Datti's extremism.

With Datti's antecedent, no developed nation of the world would trust him in public office.

When I reflect during leisure hours sometimes, I wonder why "progressive generation Z" in Nigeria let the anti human rights proposals Datti made in the past to slide.

Was it really about progress, positive change or something else?

Thank you. My worry about this internet generation is that MOST of them don't think on their own, no objective thinking at all. They just follow the (internet) crowd.

ahiboilandgas:
fulani don rest now na Yoruba and Lagos for omo baifra hand .But Yoruba get mouth and media. Hausa /fulani na attack no talking

Exactly, I don observe am tey tey. Hausa/Fulani no de talk, no matter the insults you rain on them, dem go just attack. At that point you go come start ask, "ah ahn, wetin I do?"

sablue:
Very interested in seeing his performance. He's the first of his kind holding a strong political office in Nigeria.

But wait ooo. Nobody's wailing that he's APC.

First of his kind? but Fr. Adasu, a priest, was also once the governor of Benue during the military era. Or that wasn't politics bro?

Judek2:
I returned it and got another one from shop, still the same thing. 13-14 hrs usage.
Nothing changed.
It means the 3 days battery life is marketing strategy.

Wow, I didn't even know about this phone all these years. Just stumbled upon it last week, loved it and decided to buy it only to discover this same battery issue. I searched every where for solutions then came across this thread. The last person who commented here became my savior. BATTERY CALIBERATION was all I did. It's working fine now.
Modified ; Ahaps, no much changes.

JealousCobra:
Get lost Ode! 😎

... And you're one who assume you want a good Nigeria..... by endorsing a snake like Ortom because you've forced your brain not to THINK. I wouldn't wish his type on your state cos I wouldn't want many to suffer for the evil you wish for your self. Bye

Badgers14:
Politics is about chosing the less of 2 evils.

I don't think there's any governor as evil as Ortom. As far as governance is concerned in the history of Benue, we've never had any one as evil as Ortom the serpent.

JealousCobra:
I talk am before that Tiv people na Mumu

If you can support a devil like Ortom then you should think well to know who the mumu really is. Are you from Benue? I am, though not Tiv but it's the best news to ever come from Benue. You Sabi who Ortom be?

Someone with such videos /pictures will just leave them unlocked for anyone to view? Is this Nollywood or yes?

Adebaba1:
This is a high level of f**kery from Inec
Even an olodo will know that APC can't win in Benue after what the regime has shown them

Because you believe in everything Ortom who Jumped from PDP, APC and PDP again tells you. Who gives a sh*it about any party? Any results you see from here, Ortom caused it.

benuejosh:
To all nairalanders who insulted me, i forgive you all because you were all fools.

I have countless of times criticized Ortom on this platform and i never hid the fact that he was a looser and someone who was just deceiving those who were not in Benue that truly there was fulani herdsmen killings whereas he was the one instigating the crisis and killing the locals. Ortom went into the bush, packed all the cows belonging to the herders and took them to his farm. When the herders came for attack, they killed the locals thinking they were the ones who stole their cows. Ortom will take advantage of that and tell the whole world that fulani are killing his people whereas he was the one causing the problem. We knew this truth in Benue and waited patiently for him.

I also said it on this platform that for Ortom to associate with Obi, it will be the main reason why Obi will fail.

Benue was the first state to adopt AC/ACN in the whole of North Central. A true Benue man has always associated with the Yoruba man while also having a good and perfect relationship with the true Fulani man. Go and verify! A real Fulani man respect a Tiv man more than his brother. Go and verify! Why was Ortom causing this division? Until Ortom came to power, a Fulani man and a Tiv man were always good friends. And not for once were they fighting. Ortom brought this fight and division. Causing the death of thousands of Benue people. We will NEVER forget.

Ortom in his past eight years of Governor NEVER commissioned any project that will bring development in the state. Not a single project. He shouted fulani herdsmen for 8 years. He became the Personal Assistant to Wike instead of concentrating on bringing development to the state. Ortom set Benue back.

If Ortom built a road, it was because he bought a piece of land along the road. Go and verify! I am not saying what I don’t know. We NEVER like Ortom!

Today i stand tall and happy that Ortom failed in his bid to become a senator and also failed in delivering Obi in the state. Benue people are exposed and enlightened.

A gentle reminder. Benue has always been an APC state that was governed by PDP. Ortom won his election on the platform of the APC before jumping ship back to PDP. He should have known better that a payback was waiting for him. We don’t take nonsense in Benue.

Thank you! It's what these outsiders don't know. I cringe whenever I see them hailing that devil who rides on people's emotions (outsiders mostly). You have spoken the truth that majority of us down here in Benue know.

Houseontherock1:
I'm happy he didn't allow "them" to box him to a corner. Anyone of the three popular candidates will still mess up big time in office. These same people forcing you to choose sides will use it against you when the candidate starts fumbling. Even when you start voicing out against him then, they'll not stop reminding you that you campaigned for him!

Exactly! Perfect! You perfectly understand the behavior of the Nigerian crowd. I totally reason in the same direction as Burna boy on this one. And for the record, nothing, no matter how reasonable it is you say, makes any sense to the Nigerian crowd during election years, so if I feel like voting, I vote silently for the candidate of my choice, and even if it's the crowd's candidate I'm voting for, I do it silently, ignore comments from the annoying crowd and do my thing, or don't vote at all if they get too annoying. I didn't vote in the last election because the crowd gave us a candidate I didn't like, a so called messiah they chose not to vote for this time. See how funny the crowd could get? I never let the crowd bully me and becloud my sense of judgment with some silly sentiments. I hate the Nigerian crowd mentality.

Thundafireseun:
He is still better than a lot of Nigerian Govonors including Wike

Big lie. He's the worst we've ever had. You just don't know him and probably fell for his tricks.

princeade86:
But he made sure obi won d state. He already said it that he don't mind losing than obi to lose.

Even without him saying that, we knew what to do. Ortom is a serpent who rides on the emotions of the masses to gain sympathy and support. I wouldn't wish him to lead the worst of my enemies. Very wicked being.

Bobbysmicky:
Nairaland is becoming too tribalistic and not accomodating these days.

Everything here annoys me. I just read d news without heading to the cs.

Seun u should handle this or u will eventually loose people here to other site

Exactly, I hate Nigerian sites, particularly during election periods for this reason. It's the reason I left one site which was so popular then (now it's almost dead) to Nairaland. Nairaland was so mature & educative when I first came here, but it's towing the same path as that dead site.

ROYH:
So, I've been using this pc for quite some time now apart from the back up that it does not have, everything else is working perfectly until last year around June when I discovered that it's enter button and some other 2/3 buttons ain't functional again but since there's screen keyboard, I don't necessarily bother much about it as I can still be managing it.. So it wasn't in used as I do use it frequently again, so there's nothing to worry about until around December last year that I wanna use it and it started displaying this BOOT DEVICE NOT FOUND

I don't know what's wrong with it maybe it's software problems or hardware.. Please any solution would be highly appreciated.

It happened to me once. It is one of these two things;
1. Your hard disk has been disconnected, check the connector. You probably have been moving around with it, it shook and got disconnected.
2. Your hard disk has CRASHED.

Ooops, I just looked up and saw guys writing the same problem I suspected was the cause. I think it should be the cause bro.

lazynairalander1:
I am yet to see a Benue person say anything good about Ortom even the Tivs but as an outsider I always think he is a good man.

It beats my imagination tho.

Yeah, you aren't wrong seeing him as a good person as an outsider. It's what he wants you guys to think and he plays that really well all the time. You wouldn't know until you come down here.

vicdom:
Ortom is wise. He saw that Alia was going to weep him out of Benue, he quickly jump into OBIDIENT movement because that's his only savior, otherwise, he would have lost his senatorial bid. Just look at senatorial results in same unit, you can see that PDP won with sane margin. Ortom is very wise.

Very sleek guy. He's been doing that from day one. He thrives on emotions to get votes....always. I wish he were a good man with this wisdom, but he's the damn devil. Very wicked being and a complete failure.. the worst we've ever had in the history of Benue.

Xscape1993:
Useless graduate.....

You guys know him personally? Why are you calling him a graduate? Serves him right anyways. How do people become so fo.olish for these politicians?

Freshtruth:
Obi is coming
CAN,OBJ,DAJUMA,NLC,YOUTHS,WOMEN, ORTOM,celebrities endorsed is candidature is left for inec not to try anything funny

Guy why you go write list come include Ortom? Is Ortom a human being? How do you guys mix sentiments with politics to the point you see failure and call it success? Abeg, remove Ortom from that list, you de spoil my mind guy.

iduzebaba:
Pls leaders and professional here , kindly help me criticise this 4 bedroom bungalow house plan that I intend to work on.

I will appreciate all the criticism.

A major fault in this design is lack of cross ventilation. Only one out of three of the rooms is properly ventilated. If that small rear window in the Master bedroom were to be in front, it would have made more sense ( you can achieve that by recessing the living room wall, just like you did behind). Then, the relationship between the dining, the front room and kitchen somehow makes me cringe. Designs are like puzzles, please 'scatter' this plan and redesign, you could do better. Well done.

How and what do SOME girls enjoy about being so fake? Particularly the ones from very poor homes?

I didn't know what to do or say after watching the video, but while at it I laughed till I had tears running down my eyes. Kai! Nollywood sef.

Orubebe01:
.

Did you watch the video at all? Autocorrect while speaking? And besides does this generation have any regard for the name 'God' anymore? God can be used anywhere and anyhow by these kids these days.
