EreluRoz:
She's just fooling around and not necessarily rejecting it. Just some little pampering and they are cool .

I don't want to believe she's truly rejecting it kos I can play this kind of play too.

Buhari is the best thing that happened to Nigeria. Tinubu is just here to finish his good works . Don't worry after 8 years the world would come to an end . Just live right because heaven is the goal

You must be very silly to generalise.

It wouldn't be so bad to just grant these people the secession they badly want. That way, when countries all over the world, keep hearing the name of the newest country on the planet in their criminal record books, they will become the most sanctioned, even more than Iran and Russia combined. It will be a win-win situation for the rest of us because the rest of the world will know 70-75% of Nigerian prisoners in their countries come from a particular region.

Men watch out for the kind of families you marry from!!!

You moved out of your matrimonial home over an issue that has nothing to do with infidelity, domestic violence, physical and emotional abuse! Your sister gladly accommodated you after hearing your stupid excuse! Your father is even asking you not to accept him after his own people have made several overtures for peace. Madam; your are from a terrible family!!

Why did you dig through his phone in the first place? In my own opinion, you got what you deserved like the other 98% of women who go about nosing through their husband's phones looking for incriminating stuff. Records have it that 99% of the time, they end up shedding premium tears because they always find incriminating stuff which leads to an instant mood swing. Serves you right. Ntoor!!!!
Now you have used your hand to destroy the peace of your home and now here on nairaland looking for people to make you feel justified for your actions. You better go and beg that guy because in turn reacting to his mistake, you have done worse by leaving your home and dragging your kids selfishly into the drama because you feel you can do it alone.

Like how the Bleep will you leave your matrimonial home because your husband played a fast one on you? It happens sometimes. Yeah he broke your trust but it's a matter that could have been settled amicably between you both. Now you have taken his weakness out of your home to your parents and probably your friends and here on naira land. No one deserves to be psychologically tortured because he made a mistake most especially a man you claim you love. He will most definitely be affected by your actions. Nobody is above mistakes and beyond redemption and it was very selfish of you to blow things off proportion. I wish you well though and hope you both learn from your mistakes and settles things for the sake of your kids.

Smugglers are only caught on intel. This might just be one of 10 consignments apprehended. At the end of the day, that 40m you see is change compared to the billions already made.

DoggoneDogg:
A sensible woman ought to be hiding her face if she is just getting married at the old age of 46.

All these fake smiles will disappear soon when there is no child to be presented to this same family. And even if a baby comes out of this union, this woman will be holding a 3 year old's hand to Kindergarten at 50 years old.

And knowing celebrity marriages, if they do break up in less than 5 years, a woman in her fifties will be coming on social media to constitute a nuisance about her "side of the story"... something she should have grown past in her 20s and early 30s....


Let me just stop here before I puke.

You read my mind exactly. These guys are the most useless set of people in Nigeria. Just give them 6months . You ll see these brand new trucks , turned to scrap

Road worthiness on unworthy roads

What you need is a vacation. Like 3months off. Sometime to clear your head. Sometime to think deep and reflect on why you feel pain when you see some other person progressing. I ll recommend one nice resort with high security Somewhere upscale in Lagos. Don't worry about the funds for it . God will provide OK �. I just googled one now. It a very nice place. Somewhere around yaba . On the left. Once you get tk yaba . Just ask anybody that you are going to yabaleft. They will direct you. Take care and be safe.

I want everything to be just me alone, I want to be the one to have money then give it out to people.

I hate it when people gives me money, it anolds me, makes me feel less.


Please how do I contain this attitude of mine.


Ps

I don't do bad.

Neither do I do evil.

I just want to be the one running everything in my family or any place I find myself.

I want to be the number one guy


I want to be the giver always

Then another government comes....and boom he is released on parole

Exactly what might happen to kanu and Igboho if bubu succeed to incarcerate them
Boom a president from the east or west will come and their ass is gonna be released from jail...then Igboho and kanu will be free niggarrrrs smoking and drinking their beer on the elm street of Nigeria

It's so sad to see many are still blind or have no brains to process that these so called unknown gunmen are mercenaries hired by the government to wreck havoc in the South most especially against those agitating for biafra. Very soon they ll turn the region to the North

Lol

How can this possibly be a good time to start a new sport? Is it even possible to start a new sport right now?

The answer to that is yes, it is absolutely possible to start a new sport right now. In fact, now is a really awesome time to start a new sport. We are all searching for some kind of meaning in the madness of covid-19 . That meaning can come in the form of a sport like fencing!

1.  Mental Engagement

During the time of the coronavirus pandemic, mental engagement is not the easiest thing to come by. Fencing offers a particular brand of stimulation that is hard to beat. Part of this has to do with the intersection of the physical and the mental. Fencers hold their swords in their hands, but the real work happens in our heads. 

What we’re talking about here is really problem solving. It’s a puzzle to work out, one that is not simple or straightforward.

Initially, it’s a lot to get your feet under you as a fencer. Over time, the puzzle becomes increasingly intricate. The feedback from the opponent is always changing, even with old opponents because they are growing as well. 

In this situation, fencers are putting a special emphasis on mental acuity. There is time to break down movements and slow down.

2.  Camaraderie

One of the best parts of fencing is that fencers become close with their fellow fencers and fencers connect with people in a wide range of skills and ages. During the pandemic, this is not as much the case as it is during normal times, but it’s still very much a part of fencing. 

Camaraderie now, especially for new fencers, is built on the foundation of interacting during classes and private lessons. The coach relationship has become primary. Zoom is intense and laser focused, which is a benefit. Mentorship is another highlight of pandemic times. The good thing now is that it is building for more to come in the future when things go back to normal. 

3. Community

Joining fencing means joining a niche community. The smallness of our circle means that once you are in it, you’re in it. It’s a welcoming and wonderful place to be. 

In a time of disconnection from the communities that we have traditionally relied on, joining the fencing community is a means of engaging in something that is normal and needed. Belonging – it’s important! While lots of other sports have to stop almost completely during this time, fencing is an exception. Online classes and connection over virtual platforms is very much alive during this period of seclusion. 

The way that sports build up individuals through community building, it’s so important right now for mental and emotional health. Lots of us are looking for connection and sanity through that connection. Fencing offers this in spades, which is exciting given the circumstances. 

4.  Physical Fitness

Fencing is a hugely physical sport. It is as physical as something like tennis or soccer or softball, just name a sport. It looks fast and elegant, but all of that takes a great deal of control and a lot of explosive energy. The speed on the strip does not betray the amount of work that goes into preparing for that physically. 

Stamina for fifteen touches or even five touches means doing a lot of cardio to prepare the body. Those few minutes on the piste are simply explosive. Serious fencers cross train in weights and cardio to boost their performance on the strip. It becomes about so much more than what you are doing in a lesson or in a class or in a tournament, the love of fencing drives a push for you to get out and do that cardio or that yoga. There is a reason behind it, which gives motivation.

Especially during these pandemic times, motivation can be a difficult mistress to find for physical fitness. Fencing offers some of that incentive. 

5.  Self Esteem

Holding a sword has a quality of power to it that is difficult to describe. Whether it is epee, foil, or sabre, you get the sense that you are in control when you pick one of these weapons up. Even though they are not dangerous weapons at all. It’s not about that, it’s about the control that you feel. This is really true for kids. 

There is an innate responsibility that goes with holding a sword. That trust breeds higher levels of self worth. It’s an identity that you can be proud of. Every touch that you make on your opponent, or if you are fencing at home then every touch you make on the target, it makes you feel like you can take on the world. 

6.  Cool Factor

We are looking for motivation right now in the pandemic, and there is no way around how cool fencing is. It’s inspiring! 

Look at all of the movies that feature swordfighting. Whether it is with lightsabers or with rapiers, we love to watch the excitement of a sword fight on the screen. The amazing thing is that you can do that in real life! Yes, other sports are fantastic. No, they do not have the same flavor of cool that fencing does. There is something totally different and cool about chasing someone down the piste with a sword in your hand that is not the same as chasing someone down the field with a ball at your feet.  


7. Self Discipline

Fencing teaches self discipline. It’s an integral part of the sport. Form, control, intellectual agility, focus – these are all foundational to fencing training. 

What is the motivation to get up and get going in the morning when there is not the call of in-person school or work to push us in the right direction? With the loss of those structures, it all falls on the individual to be the driving force. That is not easy. Many of us don’t even know where to begin, and this isn’t just with fencing or sport. It’s with everything. 

One of the things that’s missing right now is the structure of our lives. It is just not as easy now as it once was. Fencing is a means to access growth and grounding. It gives us something that we can control and a way to develop inner strength in a structured environment. We carry that beyond the fencing club or the zoom lesson.

8. Pandemic safety

Whatever the means to get to it, safety has to come into play here. Centrally. When we recognize that safety is first, then we can start to adapt. That adaptation is not easy.

Fencing happens to be well-suited to social distancing because it inherently maintains distance and does not use any shared equipment. It doesn’t hurt that fencers are used to wearing masks, though fencers practicing social distancing must also wear cloth masks to prevent the spread of COVID in addition to their fencing masks. It takes increased discipline to practice with additional precautions and many fencing clubs are making it work most especially in these times.



How to start fencing in the pandemic

How can you get started in fencing if you can’t go to a fencing club in person? 

Online lessons are one answer.

Even if there is not a fencing club near you, there are lots of opportunities for online training from many fencing clubs. These can come in the form of group classes or private lessons. 

To choose an online course, reach out to some of the people that are offering them. Don’t be afraid to ask questions! You’ll want to know how long the classes or lessons are, what the cost is, what equipment you’ll need, and what kind of progress you should expect to make with their class. Whoever you are considering should be able to answer all of your questions without much trouble. Make sure that you’re comfortable with what you’re getting into, and of course you can ask to observe a group class or have a tryout of a private lesson before you commit.

Online lessons in fencing have proven to be very effective means of training. Of course they do not totally replace the in person training that fencing clubs have been offering since time immemorial, but even a brand new fencer can progress with the attention given through this format. Coaches can see a lot through a screen, and they can give a lot of instruction. 

Many clubs around the world have reopened in the wake of changing understandings of the virus. Protocols for these classes are specific to each club and locality, but whatever your comfort level, there is certainly something out there for you.

What about equipment? The great thing here is that if you are fencing from home through online classes, you by pass some of the equipment that you might otherwise need. The weapon can be bought online and delivered. The uniform, which isn’t strictly necessary at first if you are practicing from home, can be bought online as well. Otherwise, you need athletic shoes, an open space, and a device. A yoga mat and a jump rope are other potentially needed items for online classes. It is so simple! When you choose an online fencing program, the coaches can tell you exactly what you need. 


Don’t be intimidated by starting fencing! Even if you have never fenced before. Whether you are an adult or the parent of a child who is interested in fencing. It’s a wonderful time to learn new skills! Safely and with social distancing in mind. 

Be safe out there everyone. There is a community of fencers in Lagos and also an emerging community in Rivers State in Nigeria that would love to have new membets join and gain from its numerous benefits ..
