So far so good ,it is goaless and they are at half time.

Well as it is Ivory Coast may be out of this year's Afcon . Their chances are very very slim.

Ivory Coast can still make it as one of the four best losers.

You have stated all your reasons but you did address the main reason why people Japa. Is there job for them in Nigeria.
Do they have prophecy to develop there God given talent in a sane environment.
Is there any chance that they can be guaranteed the basic needs of life.
What is the worth of their life if they remain in the country.
Last but not the least can there vote ever count in this country.

It will be the beginning of the end of our marriage, first the foundation of marriage which is trust has been eroded. So we shall leave in that marriage as strangers from henceforth. I will never trust nor believe her again. If I am the type that can womanise ,I will start looking for another wife. And if my resources can carry it I will just build another house somewhere else and move out . Or worse if all I can Japa to another country and leave the rest of my life there.
For her to do such it simply means she is not committed to the marriage. What is wrong if I am put in the picture about the plan from conception.
This is a SERIOUS matter to me .

Lucky has become unlucky, he has gone back through the process that brought him . Youthful exuberance.

There is no ope yet. It only means we have to take our fate in our hands. We need boys who are hungry for results.

Well you have to sit her down and tell her about your interest in her. Give her some time to digest it . You never know she may have been expecting to hear from you.

IF THIS STORY IS FOUND TO BE TRUE THEN THE APPROPRIATE AUTHORITIES SHOULD FIND THE OFFICER AND CELEBRATE HIM . WE SHOULD CELEBRATE HIM BECAUSE OTHER OFFICERS IN HIS POSITION WOULD HAVE DONE OTHERWISE. THIS SHOWS THAT THERE IS CERTAINLY HOPE IN NIGERIA .

This special makeup is so real. Nollywood is now going places.

I want to affirm that this washing machine is very good. I bought mine in 2010 on the recommendation of a friend. it has not disappointed. it can conveniently take care of your washing if well used. Do not overload it though ,just wash in patches. separate the clothes, especially the one that fades from the ones that does not fade. Good luck

It is quite unfortunate that the Osu caste system has refused to leave ibo land after several generations.The truth is that anyone caught in this quaqmire of osu should please not get involved no matter the level of emotions involved because it always backfires.i am speaking from what has happened to some people. Just let the relationship go, look outside your ibo tribe for a life partner because you can not win the battle ahead. A word is enough for the wise.

That night i could see it in her that she was expecting i will want to bleep her but to her surprise i was not even thinking of such as i was no longer interested any more.When she realised that nothing was forth coming she quickly went for her posting .When i have now secured mine to another Local Government, she was still communicating me requesting for a visit. I was eventually made the corps liaison officer of my Local govt. When she realised this she was always sending me letters through her Local govt liaison officer who openly tells me he has a message from my wife. well i try as much as possible to reply to the letters i feel like replying and leave the others. This was how we continued until our passing out which fell on my birthday again. Do you know she came for the passing out even when she was not passing out. she came to me with her friend and told the friend that this is the Godwin she has been telling her friend about. Well i moved over to the restaurant and as i turned back she was right behind me with her friend and she mentioned to her friend that that day was my birthday. I bought drinks for them but did not discuss much with them and i took my leave. That was suppose to be the end cause we never saw again until16 years later at my hometown motorpark just a few weeks to my traditional wedding. She was just alighting from a cab and saw me she smiled and was coming to tease me as usual so i just told her guess what - i am getting married . She then ask me where my wife is from i told her , the next thing was that her countenance changed. That was how i was able to let her know that you can not eat your cake and have it in a love situation. I hope you enjoyed reading my story but it was meant to teach a lesson to our youngsters.

The next day in the morning i just took control of myself ,i burned all her letters and pictures after which i went to the class to read my books since it was a Saturday. By the next Monday she came to the class and was teasing me as usual but she met a stone wall .And marked the end of the relationship as far as i was concerned. She was boasting to my friends that i have not seen anything yet that she is sure i will soon come begging. I just avoided her from then onwards despite all she and her cohorts did in the class. This continued all throughtill our next level which is the final year.well i was able to control myself and i completely shut her out of my systerm. Just as we were rounding up for the session precisely two weeks to go i just walk up to her as she was going to class for lectures and said to her how are you. In making up my mind to do this several things crossed my mind. This were - we shall soon leave the campus to a bigger world and we could still meet where either of us could still be of help to each other. so i decided there is no need for us ti part as enemies but as friends. Can you believe that this two weeks remaining for us to be in school she was ready to do anything to get me back including bleeping if i requested but i was no longer in that level as far as i was concerned it is over. she even remembered my birthday , she came to my room and demand that i celebrate it with her which i did after which i told her to leave since i was expecting my girlfriend. I thought i have seen her last after we left school only for me to realise that our NYSC posting was to the same state. She could not join the first batch due to some resit she had but she came for the supplementary batch and came straight to meet me at the secretariat . From there we proceeded to my friends house where i was putting up pending when i sort out my posting for my primary assignment.

A few weeks after this my girl turned 23 and she told me the request her dad put before her on the night of her birthday, which was that she should bring the man in her life to the house so he can know him. I was so excited by this development and we fixed a date when i will be going meet her folks. But our second semester exam was fast approaching so the date was fixed for during the holidays. as was the tradition in our school our graduating students were to be sent off by our set since we are following them so a party was organized for them at the University guest house which was not too far from where my girl lived with her friends.so we had planned that i will pick her and we both go to the party together. So i was excited on the day of the party i went with my friends to the venue of the party after which i proceeded with my friend to my girls house to pick her. When we got to her house the dor was locked but i noticed that mucis was playing inside ,so i decided to peep at the window and ask to know who is in the house, then i saw my girl cudling a man ,they were both tying wrapper. I was dazzed but i did not say anything to my friend .At that moment my girl rushed out and opened the door and came outside blocking the entrance. i was just looking at her but i did not utter a word .She said she is sorry that she can not go to the party with me because she was having stomach upset after which she saw us off briefly and went back inside. It was after she left that i mentioned to my friend what happened. We went to the party but i was a shadow of my self i drank as much alcoholas i can consume .when i got back to the hostel i had to take 2 tabs of valium before i could sleep.

Thanks for all ur comments. I just needed to know if probably i was wrong in my approach so far.

I am writing about one of my past campus experience ,it still comes to mind because Valentine is fast approaching. well it went thus- i was involved with this girl who is my classmate and some one from my linguistic area. it meant to be a love that will lead to the altar. i was so obsessed with her that i can not bear not to be with her after class. But the first thing i started noticing was that she hardly visit my room. i did not mind but i will just try and avoid her and pretend as if i am annoyed with her , then she will just start gathering all her friends to come and beg me that she has offended me. Our friendship actually started from 200level, i recall when she was down sick i was all over her that even her room mates where telling her that they wished they were in her shoes. when we are on holidays i do try and visit her at home (she lived in another city from me). i was always writing at least once a week ,such that i built a library of her letters as well. All this while there was no intimacy as she never give a room for that ,remember she does not visit. On our getting to 300level i was now becoming friendly with another class mate of mine who was making passes at me all the while . She was so homely but not attractive though. I started getting close to her so as to make my girl feel jealous. Instead what i noticed was that my girl was always going to the city every weekend on the ground that she was visiting her mum.I did not suspect anything until i started getting report that she was always seen in a particular car in the city every weekend. i was now becoming curious as to what to do. What later surprise me was on one of those days we were waiting for our lecturer to come in for class she called me to the back of the class and opened her bag and low and behold in her bag was pack of Codoms. i was shocked she laughed and asked me why i was surprised at what i have just seen. that she does not want to get pregnant. I was so shocked to imagine that was it the same girl that was so innocent and naive that is now so bold and daring.

When we moved into this compound some few years back ,i was very friendly with every one in the compound both old and young but i noticed this couple would not bulge they were not friendly at all . it got to a point when one night while i was parking my car i personally had to call out to the wife and she gave a feeble reply . So i decided to retreat back into my shell. And so we have been leaving since with every one minding his or her own business. This was how we were living until sometime last year the wife put to bed , i was very happy for them because it was their first baby, but i was very careful i sent my wife to go and greet them . From what my wife said when she came back they were surprised to se her. i did not allow my kids to play towards their flat cause i don't want their trouble.Now the question is did i do any thing wrong in not going to greet the young couple but sending my wife and not allowing my kid to play towards their flat. Fellow Nlders i am waiting for your response.

Fellow Nlders, as we approach the allmighty valentine Day something that happened to my friend in the past came to mind. This was in my undergraduate days their was this friend of mine then by name Thony he was so much in love with this babe Ejiro. When i say love it was what i can not really fathom the dept of love they both shared. At any given time Thony arrives at Ejiros room to visit you will see Ejiro will just melt she will be shedding uncontrollable tears ,you can not but notice her behaviour. honestly i was jealous of their relationship then . After our graduation and youth service every one moved on . I was to run into Thony some years later and guess what the first thing i asked him was how is Ejiro she must have been your wife by now. I was so surprised when Thony answered me that Ejiro did not marry him but some one else . He refused to go into details for obvious reasons. The question now is 'What Happened' did the love glow that was so strong then suddenly fizzle out. I want to hear from our female Nlders what could have caused it.

Gone with the wind.

From experience it takes the grace of God for a man to keep away from infidelity. I have been married for over 10 years and i will tell you that you have to first settle it out on your knees(prayer). Then show your hussy more love , let him know he can always have a dependant in you. Have an open Heart with him , do not be suspicious always or else you could jeopadise your health. God hates Divorce. I pray you get over these phase. Amen.

My dear do you know that it is important you marry a woman that will give you rest of mind,peaceful and god fearing. In addition to being hard working. Do not let these opportunity pass you by.The fact that she is not educated now does not mean she can not get education later,once your spirit goes with hers and she meets all the qualities you are looking for in a woman then please go ahead and plan your life with her. Just ensure you pray seriously about it . Good luck.

To start with you have to come over to naija and fill the necessary papers in the court you want to use .You will be asked if you are wedding in the registry there or in a church or mosque.Then a 21 days notice is given during which your picture and that of your wife to be is pasted at the notice board .it is at the completion of that 21 days notice that you can now choose a date and the wedding is done at the registry or religious place of worship of your choice.o n the other hand you should be ready for the local government staff that will make you pay various 'statutory ' levies-such as radio/TV licence, Entertainment levy e. t. c. Best of luck.

@ifyalways you are certainly wrong in saying i called my aunt a witch go back and read what i reported-i said the daughter inlaw was the one that called her a witch. I f you care to know when this problem that followed the death of my aunt's son in law happened i was still the one who mediated between the two of them.So my dear take the pains to read thoroughly before making any contribution.Thank you all.

I think you should invove a lawyer or better still go to alausa secretariat and register at the welfare dept.(if you are resident in Lagos).Or better still go to your husbands state of origin.Don't believe that trash that you are too young to adopt.This kids in this so called orphanages are just sufering lack of a lot of things including water.I just adopted one recently and behold it was like removing the kid from prison .Because after medical treatment you need to see the transformation.Honestly i wish it is possible for everyone to show love for this kids by adopting them.I wish you Goodluck do not give up.

I want to thank all of you that have made various useful contributions on these matter.Perhaps if i should make further enlightenment you people will understand my view point. This late aunt of mine was my late mums friend and confidant as they both suffered the early loss of their folks when they were very young.However my mum moved over to the city and eventually struggled and got married but she asssited her sis to ensure that her marrage was fruitful.she had three children. Now on our side we are just two and are fortunate to be degree holders.Now the kids of this sis were not fortunate to have university Education but with mums assistance they where able to get into various chosen vocations. Now my ist employment as a fresh grad was to a multi national company that even gave me an official car as part of the bargain.At about this time i was always visiting my sis at villa but i did not notice and animosity.But all of a sudden something very tragic happened just the week my immediate brother migrated to the states.it was by Gods special grace that i managed to escape but every moment i went for prayers her name always come up as being responsible.Infact i was told another tragedy was in coming up again. It was by the grace of Almighty God that a very powerful man of God was able to cast out another intended accident just the very day i was relieved from my job with the multi national company i was working for.Infact i was told that something very tragic will happen in the family that will further convince me of her involvement.A few days later her grand son died a sudden death while spending holidays with her. This incident made her daughter in law to be at logger heads with her and she started calling her a witch. With this little scenario that i have painted do you still think it is worth taking the risk to attend the burial ceremony after i have been warned over 2 years to this time.i want suggestions about what strong excuse i can give not to attend. Please.
