AGONY OF MONOGAMY. It was at the Church service for the 90th birthday of the legendary Matriarch of the Awo dynasty Chief Dr Hannah Dideolu Awolowo in Ikenne that the thoughts that prompted this article began.

Some well known highly placed gentlemen and their wives
were called upon to partake in the wine sipping, bread breaking ritual called Holy Communion. As soon as these respectable ladies and gentlemen, all of them past age 70,
and amongst whom were renowned professors, high court judges, legal luminaries and business moguls, finished their spiritual
blessing and were returning to their seats, they caught a pitiable sight in their over-flowing garb of hypocrisy.

They wore forlorn mien plastered with furrowed frowned faces like some one afflicted with putrid smell of heavy dose of fart. They looked as if they were mourning a three-year-old boy mistakenly killed by his own father, or the passing of a poor woman who has just succumbed to excruciatingly painful cancer.

They clung to their wives as if they were newly wedded. I temporarily forgot that I was in a holy Church, the spiritual enclave of Christians.
I almost laughed my head off because I knew each of the ‘holy’ ‘monogamous’ men intimately and by Jove, I knew of their second, third or fourth wives/liaisons/mistresses with whom they had sired several children.

To the whole world they were champions of monogamy, but to their hearts and conscience they were celebrated polygamists, or at best, serial monogamists. Pshaw!
I saw pain written all over them, the agony of living a lie, the unease of hypocrisy, and the shame of going through life pretending to be what you are not.

This is the sort of agony a lot of the so-called monogamists go through all their lives. The series of lies they sell to their wives, and the double life they present to their pastors and church leaders, most of whom are actually equally guilty of hypocrisy and double life
living.

This piece is not set out to condemn or criticise monogamy. Monogamy is perfect for
those who believe in its concept and can genuinely keep to it. I too have been married to one lovely woman for almost 45 years and it
has been like a marriage made in heaven. I happen also to be the promoter along with some friends the 35-year-old Family Club of
Nigeria which is dedicated to the upliftment and celebration of marriage and family values.

The article is designed to expose the hypocrisy and pain associated with embracing false notions which are really not observed by any
culture in the world, and to advise those who erroneously sentence themselves to a life of sadness and emptiness because they were deceived to believe that there is some utopia somewhere called monogamy.

I am very much aware that this article will generate a lot of controversy most especially from those who live holier-than-thou life and have continued to deceive the world that they are upholders of a doctrine that is not supported by true and enlightened interpretation of any religious doctrine. The white men, I am yet to see any human being whose skin colour is like that of chalk, came and told th. e unfortunate lands they invaded that the cherished cultures, traditions and religions of such lands were rubbish, and
instead indoctrinated them with values which they themselves never believed in or truly practiced. We know of King Henry Vlll, and several major historical figures in ‘Christian’Europe who had more than one wife in addition
of a string of wives who their ‘laws’ forbade them to address as wives but who nonetheless perform all the functions of wife minus name.

God bless President Mitterrand who openly confessed to having two women in his life, with the one in the other house with whom he
fathered an 18-year-old daughter at the time he passed on.

I have schooled, worked and lived virtually in all the continents of the world and I make bold to say with all emphasis at my disposal that no culture on planet earth truly practices monogamy.

My Greek, Italian, Russian, British, American and other Caucasians routinely visit their other wives [called by other names] with whom they have children. But back in the homes shared with the one carrying the ring, they are monogamists!

If God had wanted humanity to be
monogamous He or She would not have made the pigeon the only monogamous creature. The cultures that practice polygamy had always known that at any given time, the number of available marriageable women far out number available men plus the fact that an 80-year-old man, if he has money, is still very much in the market whereas a 60-year-old
woman may not be that lucky. The biological limitation to a woman’s productive age is also a factor. Why should a woman therefore remain on the shelf till age 45 when she could jolly well get married as second or sixth wife to a man who can afford to share life’s responsibilities with her? Why should a woman leave a man with whom she is No 1, simply
because took a second wife and end up being numberless in the hands of several men with whom she naturally shares bed just because of some doctrine she hardly understands?

All the women who should go and marry but are saying they do not want to share their man with another woman in a polygamous setting, are sharing current boyfriends with several other women. Where is the logic?

The argument that children in a polygamous house are always at each other’s throat does not hold water. Many siblings of monogamous families are known to have had worse and irresolvable, irreconcilable squabble, with dirty
bitterness over inheritance than children from different mothers.

The agony suffered by both men and women in the hand of unnatural laws and doctrines is too stifling for comfort. In 2002, five hundred and two Reverend mothers were reported to have
died while procuring abortion in Rome. NigerianTribune wrote an editorial on the unfortunate
incident. And stories of Reverend fathers having children and sodomising young men in
their care are legion! Why the hypocrisy? Why should the world continue to live the life of
Ostrich?

A well known Nigerian journalist hid his other wives from his wife because his religion would not permit of it and his wife, living in
monogamy should not hear of it. At his funeral 9 Funeral Service programmes by his 9 wives surfaced and the woman parading the ring collapsed. It was the grace of God that prevented double interment that day!

The Western world which had not learnt the art of living amicably with more than one partner
under the same roof has indulged in multiple serial marriages, divorcing innocent wives under flimsy excuses so that another woman can move in should not be measure of standard for the world. Thank God Mrs Hillary
Clinton in the US and Mrs Cook in England were very much wiser. They refused to allow some indiscretion on the part of their husbands to ruin their marriages.
There was a well known American actor who passed on about a decade ago and all his 11 ex-wives with their numerous children attended his funeral. To ridicule the lie of their hypocritical existence, all the women were
recognised and addressed as wives. As far as records show, the man had 11 wives!

Society must rethink this issue of pretentious monogamy vis-à-vis polygamy so that in the not-too-distant future we do not end up with millions of unmarried women whose life style would be worse than prostitutes’ and millions of children whose fathers would be nowhere to be found.

In 1984, Mr Eldee would had earned himself about 100 years jail term by this statement.

That is why it was called military goverment,and this is a democratic goverment.A lot of things have been better in this country because. Nigerians took to social media to express their despair.

Matthewbriggs:
According to Transparency international, Under Jonathan Nigerian in I year we went from 31th most corrupt country to 39th. 8steps forward

What happened? Was there actually a successful fight against corruption or did other countries just become more corrupt.
Well, this is what happened.

There are two sides to the fight. Prevention and punishment . while little has been seen regarding punishment, a lot has been done to prevent corruption. from strict banking rules, to transparent contract award and execution to more professional procurement processes and proper accounting processes. CBN, Ministry of finance and other government agencies have improved their processes to a good extent.
Is 39th most corrupt nation worth celebrating? Not at all. but Rome was not built in a day as they say.

The sad part is that all this means nothing to the Public. proper record keeping is no news. they want someone to be hanged. they want a 'big' man to be humiliated. the people want blood. and in this regard, the government gave them nothing. No politician in jail. no body to ridicule. So all the good behind the scene work has no political value. OBJ administration had terrible processes. Corruption was huge, but he gave the public the ''punishment'' they craved. Even if it was mainly visited on his political opponents, the people loved it.
This government has actually done a lot, but punishment is the only way to show you are fighting corruption. They simply did not ''show working'', thereby exposing itself to the accusation of tolerating corruption. Don't just work, be seen to be working. Its also called ''eye service''.

- A.C

He is also the first Nigerian president to grant complete independence to the EFCC.

Yeah,you can really write you know.People do not want to see blood,people want to see equality.People want to know that if a goverment official commits a crime he doesn't get pardoned because he's a close ally of the President.In the streets of Nigeria,people are convicted for stealing the littlest of things,while high goverment officials are pardoned for stealing billions of naira...Even some people are in the prisons for committing no crime...If you have had a brother or sister tried for committing a crime,then you'lllike injustice was done to you if high officials who committed the same crime do not get punished.
High Officials should be punished more,strictly because they are an example to the populace.Pardoning them shows that an ordinary citizen should also be pardoned.Imagine where that will lead us too.Thank me later for bringing this things to your view.

Show me your friend and I will tell you who you are.

GMB was part of ABACHA regime that is the most corrupt government in Nigeria history. The govt was characterized by impunity, lawlessness, victimization and high scale corruption that Nigeria is still suffering from today.

Hypocrite,GEJ was Alameseigha's deputy,talking about pot calling kettle black.No wonder GEJ turned a blind eye to Alameseigha's corruption.

I bought a friend of mine(female)flowers on christmas day, expensive ones(whiterose), and her reaction was like "huh" thank you sha" with a straight face, I felt humiliated. So here comes the question do naija babes find flower and maybe chocolate as an ideal gift?

sincerely,I think its basically because as nigerians,between fighting for our independence an trying to earn a living ,we are not the type to be wooed by flowers,we don't even know what flowers represent,all these things are remnants of colonialism or western influence.I don't think my dad wooed my mum with a flower,and I'm sure most nigerian fathers and grandpas didn't too.If your gf doesnt accept flowers,it shows that she is a typical Naija babe,no forming.

vanstanzy:


So very true!

what is true.Which treasury?ehn?which treasury?is it the one that Jonathan has embezzeled or the one he ensured its mismanagement.You know "corruption is not stealing"...If someone else becomes president in 2015,he would first have to clean up the mess made by ebele.....
Now we have less money in our foreign reserves compared to when yaradua was president.I know some Nigerians want to say that its because of Bokoharam but he's the leader of this country and whatever happens in the country is his fault...He says he knows the sponsors yet no arrest has been made,he wines and dines with suspect(ihejerika and Ali modu sherif),...Even you know that President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has not fought a good war against BH,and he doesn't deserve a second term,the fact that he is even demanding for it is insult upon injury.
"INSANITY IS DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND EXPECT RESULT"-ALBERT EINSTEIN
We Nigerians are not Insane.

A lot of jonathan fans are saying that Buhari is responsible for BOKO HARAM,yet the presidency has done nothing about it,infact this so called bokoharam sponsor is running for the post of president and the President is watching,o body as approached him.If truly Buhari is the sponsor if BH....then this goes to show that your president is soo incompetent to allow a so-called BH sponsor to roam the streets of Nigeria freely.
Also Buhari declared that he never stole Nigeria's money while he was in goverment,up till date ,no body either efcc or icpc or whatever body incharge of corrupt officials has come to confront it,to say he lied.WHO in the Nigerian goverment today can come out to bodly say that he did not take Nigeria's money while in power.Only one MAN as done That,BUHARI.And nobody has challenged him,cos they know he said the truth and they don't have evidence.

Where were you when Asari Dokubo threatened that 2015 will be bloody if jonathan does not win.Don't be a hypocrite.

Shoot me if you like,but the birth of jesus and the creation of Adam is not different,except that Adam did not pass thru the vagina of a woman,neither did he stay in her womb for 9 month.God said be and he was.

Saying wearing of Hijab will cause disunity is like saying that a yoruba man should wear the hausa mans outfit,or the igbo mans outfit so that there won't be disunity.wearing the hijab is part of the laws a muslims woman as to fulfil.muslims cannot say a catholic should not wear a rosery on his/her neck..
A principal beat a girl in hijab outside of the school,in the school nursing,college of medicine a sister in hijab was threatened with expulsion because she refuse to sing christmas carol last christmas,another sister faced the same ordeal because she wears the hijab.This are just a few people who were bold enough to narrate their ordeal.

Jona, dis na lie! Only if the prophet Mohamd had not killed jews, christians and other non muslims in his days then is Islam free from this blame!
But he killed, slaughtered many, raped, robbed and waylaid caravans from trans sahara merchants etc
Islam mode of evangelism is force of sword. The world through UN should be bold enough to proscribe in totality the Quran and Islam from human civilization. Only then can peace be guaranteed to the human race!!
Buh can this ever happen

wetin this one they talk.u know sabi history.Go and read about the crusaders in the period of salahudeen,they killed so many muslims.in the books of history,it is said that the blood of muslims were flowing in the streets,it reached up to the groin.this crusaders were catholics.....GO AND READ BOOKS abeg...

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]ONIRO BURUKU.

Is this a joke or something.ok.lemme get this....Out of all the jets in Nigeria,it was your jet that was used to transport 9.3Bn to southafrica,to purchase arms illegally....I thought the president said something about goin cashless.and some Nigerians on here are ready to be fooled,because they are afraid of accepting that the president of CAN can be associated with crimes such as money laundering and that President Jonathan who had no shoes can be breaking his own cashless policy rules.If a sultan was found with this amount of money,the story would have been different.I trust SA to conduct a good investigation......YOU OUT THERE SUPPORTING ORITSEJAFOR,U are the reason why Nigeria is moving backward.Say the truth and stop failing Christ.

Asalamalaykum brothers and sisters in Islam.I'm new to Naira land.Jazakumullahukayran.Alhamdulillah 'ala ni'matul islam.
