Travel / Re: Paying For Uk Visa Application Using Verve (powered By Mypaga) by Opelope(m): 10:55am On Sep 01, 2015
Good morning ladies and gents - It has been ages.

Struggled with the visa payment all thru the weekend.

My GTB was a total fail tho - $300 limit - called the bank and customer service, kept saying they could not help.

Was able to pay using UBA Verve card today online at a rate of 245. UBA Visa works too.

I hope that helps someone.

Fhemmmy:

That is possible as well.
But mind you, we are talking of some ladies that seems to wanna rush the man down the aisle and yet have nothing to contribute in the marriage.
Ofcourse there are many ladies that could finish up later and get a good job and all that, however, in a situation where the guy is not making that much money, i think will be better for the woman to at least have something doing that will assist in keep the home together.
This was as a result of some ladies, that are in school and yet demanding some quick walking down the aisle.

Agreed.

Fhemmmy:

All sounds good and cute, but i think she needs to finish her school, have a job, or a business before hitting the man in the head for marriage

Thanks for the compliment. However, I've actually come to realise from experience mainly that finishin skl n having a job ain't a NECESSITY but rather, an added advantage which most men would love. She could always finish skl n work even after marriage.

i believe wat matters most are the inmost qualities. The character.

Fhemmmy:

I am not sure you understand the question/thread well.
We mean, what are the pre-requisite for marriage for a woman?


And as i said in the first line, when she knows the reasons for marriage n the responsibilities that come with it and is also ready to handle those responsibilities.

You as an 'outsider' can kinda have an idea as to when she is ready by having a look at how she handles issues as well as how she takes care of her self and others around her.
Family / Re: When Is A Woman Ready For Marriage by Opelope(m): 1:07pm On Jan 25, 2010
A woman is ready when she knows and is ready to handle 2 things.

1 - the reason for marriage. marriage was made for man n woman to come together, reproduce and raise children in the way of the LORD.

2 - there are responsibilities that come with marriage which must been handled. raising of children in the right light. because to stay alive n raise this kids right u need to survive, then at least 1 person needs to go get food OR money to get feeding and education.

If i marry a lady cause i like her character, then that's the character i want in ma children and not the Nanny's character.

If u do not spend the quality time with ur children, then do not expect an OBAMA-esque reward but rather, an ABDULMUTALLAB-esque (sorry man but, ) reward.

Food / Re: Why Do Girls Have To Cook? by Opelope(m): 9:46pm On Jan 20, 2010
Ideally, a man supposed to work thru the day for the family. Ordinarily, he'd be tired by the time he returns from work. Now comes the HELP of his wife to welcome him back home warmly. It even helps ensure a healthier relationship n married life.

U might bring up 'me wife working n tiring out as well' but i always like to hit 1 thing. Man n Woman run the family so don't make sense when we both doin same things if there still other responsibilities to be handled. Imagine Yar'Adua and Goodluck both go on all the external trips at all times - who looks over home?

1 - Lack of self-control is 1 reason y too many peeps lose it.

Religion / Re: Is Fornication Really A Sin? by Opelope(m): 3:57pm On Jun 10, 2008
Ok Lagoon, since you believe Pastors are stereotyped, I would like to refer you to Bro. Gbile Akanni. He is not a Pastor per say but a Bible teacher. He lives in Gboko. Ever heard of him? i will try to get his contact info. for u if u are interested. I believe u know fornication is a sin but i am still not too sure what u are looking for with this Topic.

On the other hand, if u choose not to believe pastors or biblical leaders, then I suggest you not only read the bible and assuming u are a true christian, that you go to God in prayer for the answer. Don't know if u'd need to fast but it's only going to serve to help if u did.

Btw, i am not suggesting or indicating I know the bible more than u. From all I have read in the bible, i know fornication is a sin against the body and i have not seen anywhere in the bible where it indicates or says it is not a sin so why should i question it or believe otherwise?
Religion / Re: Is Fornication Really A Sin? by Opelope(m): 2:36pm On Jun 10, 2008
Jagoon:

i explained that the term fornication was a wrong translation of sexul immorality by some versions of the bible namely King James version which as been acknowledge not to be an accurate translation of the bible from the original text. What every body as been posting on this thread is the misconception i am trying to resolve. Is there no intellectual on Nairaland that can at least come out with superior bible based facts that establishes that premarital sex is a sin. And please don't quote from King James version which was mis-interpreted.

Jagoon, watever the interpretation and use of words, or how intellectual u are, that does not mean u'd understand the bible. Only the Holy Spirit can guide u into the understanding needed. So King James being another translation might me 'misinterpreted' to man but it does not matter wat interpretation it is if the Holy Spirit guides you thru.

Sex was made for marriage to build a family and raise up the children in the way of the Lord and sex outside marriage is sexual immorality and therefore a sin. I'm not goin to go about looking for bible passages. If u need quotations and someone to prove it to u, then walk up to ur pastors in church and ask them. Let me know how it goes.
Religion / Re: Is Fornication Really A Sin? by Opelope(m): 1:39am On Jun 07, 2008
Mr. Lagoon, Fornication is 2 unmarried people having sex while adultery is 2 people married but not to themselves having sexual intercourse with themselves.

Now, leviticus 18 answers other questions like an sex between unmarried person and married person as well as homosexuality. That is why neither Fornication nor adultery is mentioned here.

It does not in any way support fornication.

Is it clear now?

I'll be backing Portugal all the way. . .

Guess why? grin

Because the best player on the the planet plays for them.

Point of correction. Ronaldo may be the PLAYER OF THE YEAR fair and square but he certainly ain't the best in the world. I still say best is Ronaldinho.

Just like manager of the year don't mean best manager, just means best performane for that year only.
