Oh my God! I honestly don’t know if I should cry or laugh at what I am reading. I am beyond speechless that people will take one person’s bitter & baseless suppositions as facts. To the people agreeing with DeepZone, I beg you. . . tell me what evidence she has shown you for the following statements. . . 1) These windbags called American nurses have a way of getting under your skin and it's not surprising they extend it to their homes by consistently treating their husbands like they are a pariah. 2) To further prove this hypothesis about nurses; are there not other Nigerian women in other professions in America? Doctors, pharmacists, CPA's, engineers, lawyers, teachers, programmers etc and all the aforementioned clearly make more money than these nurses, why haven't you heard their husbands hacking them into pieces. 3) Nigerian nurses are also notorious for sleeping with their coworkers, 4) They are usually half educated because they didn’t go through the main stream school system in Nigeria 5) Her PR will be sound and not laid back. So, I think these nurses suffer from half education(education is not only maths, english and anatomy) and the ones that read the nursing in America in most cases did it as full grown adults(usually with kids) so, they never had a taste of any extracurricular activity in a standard tertiary institution. 6) In other words, most of them are "Jew" women. Pay a "Jew" woman that amount of money that she never fathomed in her life and see her start misbehaving like a Bohemian peasant that drank one pint of vodka. 7) Remember, in most cases, these nurses were brought to America by their respective husbands, their college fee was paid by these men. 8 ) They may never get the degree in the first place if they had to work 40hrs and read the nursing and it'll be very unfair for you to destroy the man's life after you have your degree and making "tonnes" of thousands to insult, aggravate and announce I suppose it is okay to make all these baseless, ridiculous statements just because DeepZone “happens to know a lady now in MD that is rushing through nursing school as fast as she can because she's planning to leave the man that is footing her school bills citing that he's too old for her. Is that not using somebody?” There is no denying women and men use each other, there is no denying married people face marital problems, that some people get so angry, they lose their minds and commit murder, there is no denying there are professions which are more stressful than the others causing a strain on marriage. . . these are facts and I’d think as intelligent people, who literally have the gateway to more knowledge at our finger tips; we would be able to tell the difference between facts and ignorant baseless statements by someone who obviously has an ax to grind (Good catch Chioga) How can anyone sit back and watch someone disparage an entire group of people based NOT on any study, survey, experiment but personal feelings & guesstimate and agree with it?? ![]() How can people allow themselves to be spoon fed crap and not question it? Is it laziness? ![]() I ask you. . . how can anyone read this hate-filled post and not be left with a bitter taste in your mouth? ![]() Goodness! All that is left is for Deepzone to call for the burning of American Nurses on stakes and I must say, I won’t be the least bit surprised to see people lining up with their touches held high, after all Hitler also managed to convince “supposedly intelligent” folks Jews needed to be destroyed. @ DeepZone For the sake of real debate, please don’t use Hypothesis in the same sentence as your Hate speeches. 1 Like |

The above story sounds very very familiar the same thing happened to someone I know after her nursing licence she began to make trouble start frustrating the man after two two kids and today that marriage is history. They are divorced leaving the man with her school loan, credit card over $100,000 bill thank God almighty that the man has a powerful good job and handled those bill single handedly. Now they are to your tent oh Isreal tell me isn't that enough reason to kill which I do not support. But he left everything to God almighty to judge her because he is xtain. Question is why didn't she leave before her nursing licence? This is a true life story and not make up 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Nigerian Nurses Beware? by DeepZone: 6:58pm On Aug 25, 2008 |
The problem here is discernment. How can you tell that your spouse is murderous? some murderers have no history of violence or common abuse, they are seldom angry, always quiet but beyond that facade, there's a giant monster that remains to be activated by one single act of betrayal. In as much as i wouldn't excuse murder, i strongly advise men and women to stop using their spouses to climb the ladder(for that sake only). There is a huge difference between leaving someone because he/she ought to be left and having a master plan from the get go on how to use and dump someone. It's a cold hard world! 1 Like 1 Share |

me i would prefer to settle down with a man who earns higher than me. Leadership is from the mind and not the material possession that gears it always. That's why you see some people that are not wealthy leading a club,sorority or fraternity because of their charisma, will power or overt intelligence. I do not support you to relinquish your job because the man in your life will be insecure, rather, hold the job, make the cash and control it instead of the cash controlling you. Very many rich people today are slaves to their wealth and it's a pity that the money you made is steering you around. You can be rich and still respect and honor your husband but you can only achieve that if and only if you believe that your wealth is secondary to your relationship. Think of this: If most men have been this anal from the get go because they held more jobs and money before the advent of women getting a career and money, how would the world be before now? Are you spending your money or is your money spending you? 1 Like 1 Share |

joshjosh: You are absoluetly right, everyone is entitled to an opinion. However when these opinions are presented as facts or justification for committing a heinous crime, then it becomes dangerous. I need not tell you how many wars have been started based on opinions disguised as facts. This is a debate that called for logic and by making this statement “A wife being rude and all is no reason to commit murder. Yes you feel emasculated, then get off your ass and get working! As far as I know, men can also be nurses in America - make your money and kick the trifling woman out. But by no means kill or maim her, resorting to base instincts to solve these problems cannot be accepted.” Debosky showed us logic has not fallen by the wayside (Thank God!). As a guy it would have been easy for him to allow his feelings and macho-pride to overshadow common sense but he didn’t. . . Intelligent man and God bless him, I say. What we had so far was some people saying “I don’t think murder is right but. . .” I’m sorry but when you add a “but” to a statement about not condoning something, you are condoning it. No if, what or . . . but about it. There is NO BASIS OR JUSTIFICATION for taking another person’s life and ranting and raving about how some people feel too big, lie about what they make, sleeping around or how uneducated they are, will not change it. Period. God bless and help my people from whoever wants to kill any of you Thanks and right back at you. ![]() @ Debosky Thanks for washing away the bitter taste from my mouth.

@DeepZone, You've provided the best analogy here so far. I doff may hat for you, man. If any of you that rant and rave here should take time and read through DZ's analogy, there is no place he's justifying the killings rather, he's in the future and trying to provide clues to these murders. Did you see where he said that there is no need beating a dead horse? From page one on this thread, enough abuses and curses has been rained on these men but nobody cared to look into the cause of this things and why it happens only in America and to women in a particular profession. There is nothing wrong in analyzing a crime thoroughly and this shouldn't be a reason to start a war like in the politics section. Some of una get too much time sha because the antagonists here do not have any reason to be so since he has accepted by default that he's not in support of any murder unless they have an initial score to settle with Dz the way we do it here on nairaland. Crime TV's, courts argue cases same way. You cannot hush a defendant's lawyer from making his or her case because there is no reason to kill anyone. It will be more useful for those who visit nairaland to read stuff that will make them view their lives from another angle than rave and rant on a dead horse. i don yarn my own sha. One Love. |

you've done a survey of all the nurses in America, all your claims about nurses being "pompous" By the time she bothers to show "proof", Jesus will already be back on Earth. Why bother Lmao now she's stating that nurses are known for sleeping with co-workers. Lmao wish we can get proof of that as well. Perhaps it was obtained from an episode of Scrubs. My bad, Carla never cheated on Turk ![]() All these cold blooded people coming up with excuses "oh well she used him", last I checked, you can sue people in their country.

Zing!!!!;There is no telling on where this thread is heading to. Why ibo nurses? Are there no Yoruba,Ibibio,Efik etc families that have gone through the same lately? Is it only ibos that are on the list up there? Why not change the thread title to "Ibo nurses beware of your men" instead chipping ibo here and there in disguise? So just because someone compiled an email with 7 selected stories(i received this story in my email), you decide to conclude in your limited mind that it's only ibo women that are prone to that? No wonder you guys are only interested in the heinous crime itself just to propagate ethnic hatred. You've made that sly comment before in this thread and someone gave you a square answer, still you are more interested in pushing your ethnic bigotry vociferously. Just get ready to take a deep cover when ibo people start to throw similar tantrums at you. I am not part of this and any ibo person that will make a collective judgment on Yorubas on this board because one sleazy undercover tribalist threw a rock on their window may see my red faces. The dearth of common sense on this board is beginning to make me worried. Let me give you a cracker, if your theory is correct, does that mean that the aforementioned women are the only victim of heinous murder among Nigerians living in the diaspora? You better take your skewed mind to the cleaners because most people here except a few of course are not in high school like you and your cronies. Next time, if you want to accuse people of something, try and come forthwith with a better idea instead of this your dumb circumlocution.

Who's the one using "aboki" as some dumb insult for some people who arent even Hausa in the first place? Ode ni e. Your fake Bible quoting wont help you here. Hateful hypocrite I asked why Igbo women because 1. the ones mentioned and highly publicized are mostly Igbo women. Unless you are blind, you'D see that osisi herself even asked "Why are they mainly Igbo men". 2. I didnt agree with what the dude said. Since you imbeciles keep saying it's because these women are disrespectful blah blah, why just Igbo woman? To be honest, as a Yoruba woman I can sincerely say Yoruba women are more likely to talk back to their husbands than Igbo women so how the hell is the the whole "well it's because they are disrespectful and pompous" a good excuse for you to use? Since you've been yarning dust up and down stating that ALL nurses are loud mouths and arrogant, are they the only Nigerian tribe with nurses in Nigeria? Point is these men are monsters with egos and your pathetic "maybe because they do this and that", garbage that you can't even prove Btw makes absolutely no sense.

World Igbo Congress begins in Florida The increasing cases of homicide and domestic violence among Nigerian spouses, especially of the Igbo ethnic stock will be the focus of a public discourse in Tampa, Florida, as the World Igbo Congress (WIC) begins it's annual convention today. The organization has tapped renowned psychiatrist, Dr. Ambrose Mgbako, to profer solutions on how to deal with domestic violence and care for the children affected by the problem. The Secretary General of the WIC, Charles Chikezie, said the organization is troubled by the frequency of problem. According to him, Igbos have a rich culture of taking care of their own, adding that the problem was alien to our culture and that they were determined to do all that is necessary to reduce it to the barest minimum. Chikezie also stated that traditional rulers in the South East have also been contacted to educate their people on their unrealistic expectations of their relatives in America, saying that efforts will also be stepped up to encourage the use of Igbo language among children born in the Diaspora. Said he: "We are concerned that there is the real danger of our language becoming extinct. We will tackle it by several programmes geared towards the youth during this conference." According to the Justice Department and Prisons Service, over 1,000 male and female Igbo's are either in jail, awaiting trial or sentencing for either killing their spouses or having inflicted serious injuries during domestic fights. Law enforcement officials have designated the trend as the most serious issue affecting Igbo families in America, informing that the fights erupt because of stress brought about by unrealistic expectation of economic gains and pressures by relatives back in Nigeria. Juvenile Department officials also report that dozens of children affected by such domestic spats are either in foster homes, with their relatives in the care of the state, adding that such incidents have negatively affected children who now have emotional problems. Dr. Jackie Williams, a childhood development expert at the prestigious Howard University in Washington DC, said the impact of domestic violence manifests in several anti-social behavior later in life, adding that the affected children will have trouble maintaining a relationship, respect for authority and may lack parenting skills". Recently the Igbo community was stunned when police authorities said one of their own gunned down his wife in cold blood in Missouri. According to police records, Michael C. Iheme shot his estranged wife, Anthonia, in a parking lot and calmly called police and said, "I have killed the woman that messed my life up, a woman that had destroyed me." A Hennepin County, St. Louis Criminal Court, said Iheme will be subjected to mental evaluation before his trial will commence. Police said Anthonia, 28, a mother of two children, was shot by her husband as she left work at an assisted-living center. Two witnesses reported seeing a man matching Iheme's description with a gun near his wife's car in the parking lot. County court records showed that she had an restraining order against Iheme because of a history of domestic abuse. One of Anthonia co-workers said she saw her get into her car and then Iheme getting out of his car and shooting at her car, which lurched forward, clipped a van, jumped a curb and rolled down a hill into a fence. Iheme allegedly followed the car down the hill and fired more shots. Chikezie said Igbos should use their traditional methods of resolving marital problems, instead of resorting to violence. http://www.sunnewsonline.com/webpages/news/national/2008/aug/29/national-29-08-2008-009.htm I really do think other tribes should borrow a leaf here. Its about waking up to the present reality of the huge Nigerian diaspora residing permanently outside the country. Most without their parents, relatives or people from their own culture. 1 Like |

Father Lord in heaven, thank you for real experts who actually know what they are saying. How someone can even attribute these senseless murders to something as benign as Nurses claiming to make more money and not being educated, is completely beyond me. What these men went through is called a catathymic crisis or Catathymia and the common link between them is not their nurse wives but that they all come from an extremely patriarchal society.

Nigeria factor too of marriage without common grounds,more like arranged marriages just for the sake of being married(holy spirit union and money craze)It doesn't work,marriage is a union between two people of like minds,outlooks and visions. |

isn't it funny how the problem here is supposedly that the women are richer than the men and rub it in their faces, yet on this same nairaland if a girl says she can't marry a man she is richer than, you'll see people calling for her head.The assumption from what a lot of men themselves have said here is that a lot of Nigerian men have a problem dealing with richer women and women by nature are not really good at being "humble" bread winners, i personally think its because God did not really intend for the woman to the bread winner, rather we are meant to be helpers and woman tend to respect their man more when he caters for them. It dates back to the stone age, a woman needs to feel love and protected by her man and when she stops feeling that way a lot of times the respect goes or diminishes except for the grace of God. So i beg don't blame the girls that want to marry a man that is richer than them, they don't want to become barbecue ![]() |
