SamueItem337:

Segedinho:
Oga oooo

liveLongNprospa:


So it's the first time a president will make a declaration and it won't immediately be implemented ba?
So if the president says we will do this, you expect in that very moment they will just start doing it

SamueItem337:
So from what you just said nothing has changed
Same old "We will do this will will do that"

MY CANDID OPINION ON DAVID ADELEKE vs SOPHIA MOMODU

By DELE MOMODU

Last night, I received a distressing message from Mr David Adeleke (aka Davido). He was obviously devastated by the counter-affidavit submitted in court, earlier in the day, in response to his affidavit seeking a joint custody of his daughter with my niece Sophia Momodu.

I had seen David's affidavit about two weeks ago and I was very surprised as David and I had spoken on a video call days earlier, with him and Pastor Tobi Adegboyega, and he never told me he had any custody issues with my niece. So you can imagine my confusion to find out via social media and subsequently confirmed by my niece that he had filed an action in court seeking joint custody of their daughter.

During the referenced video call, we were all very excited about his forthcoming wedding ceremony, an event our family congratulated him about. Prior to this, David had told me he eventually spoke to their daughter, after a long lull of about two years.

He was very happy and excited. So I thought everything was settled and he and Sophia would now have the opportunity of taking maximum care of their daughter. I had offered special thanks to David's Dad, Dr Adedeji Adeleke, for his kindness and support for our daughter during the period of David's absence.

I had also taken Sophia and their daughter to my very dear friend, Governor Ademola Adeleke, seeking his intervention. To the best of my knowledge, there was never a problem of joint custody. The issues were: non-payment of school fees for several sessions; non-payment of accommodation and salaries of a nanny. There was no car dedicated to David's daughter. And so on. Mercifully, I mentioned all to Dr Adedeji Adeleke and he responded positively, like a true grandfather. On the issue of non-payment of school fees, David's Dad cleared everything and also set up payments of future bills. He gave his grand daughter a car to take her to school. The remaining issue was on accommodation.

David's Dad verbally offered, in his discussions with me, one of their family apartments in Oniru Estate, Victoria Island, however, maybe due to miscommunication, David’s lawyers had communicated otherwise. After Sophia clarified from me, she politely declined the offer, and her reason was tenable in my view, because, since she's not married to David, she can't be comfortable living in a place swarming with David's family members.

She and her daughter had been living in Ikoyi before David and Sophia started their latest quarrels. Sophia's request was that David should pay half of the accommodation while she would pay the other half. David said he could only contribute N5million annually.

My opinion is that the absence of camaraderie between David and Sophia has caused this debacle. I have cautioned repeatedly that their daughter must not be allowed to suffer or be treated like a second class child. David's global status makes this imperative.

Sophia allowed David access to their daughter provided she has her nanny around 24/7. The 9-year old herself made this request and I believe this should be favorably considered and accepted. My grand niece had been released to go out with her cousins on several occasions.

The Governor’s daughter, Nike, was at Sophia’s house with the Governor’s grandson last Christmas Day, despite the fact that there wasn’t ample notice & she still granted access.

Two months ago, the Governor’s son, Sina Rambo, requested a play date between the kids & Sophia rented out a children’s place in Victoria Island for them to spend hours together. The only time she couldn't join her father’s family was when her grandfather requested to go on vacation with her for three weeks last year, as the notice was too short, and Sophia had already paid for their own trips, due to lack of communication between the parents...

this is just david and his baby mam - so take this an multiply by X for polygamy matter
this is what ramdeuter is advocating - let your prick take you where you no know

BlueRayDick:


Everybody knows this is the truth, but fandom and stanship will not allow people see things for what they are .

A man that lost a child to parental negligence is seeking custody of another child from another woman he’s not married to and they expect the woman to just hand the child over . Why ? Because his name is Davido and he must always get what he wants ? Smh 🤦‍♂️

If I was the judge in the case, I will only pronounce a judgement that allows for him to have regular access to his daughter maybe allow for the daughter to spend few holidays with him, but make the mother her primary custodian .


Even those saying “ He asked for joint custody “ are just being disengagious . Shebi joint custody means they will have the child stay with both parents 50/50 throughout the duration of a year Shey? As a musician who travels frequently on tour , do u see Davido as a co-parent who will be there for his daughter whenever it is his turn ? Will he be carrying her to Australia, Canada, etc whenever he has a musical tour ?

liveLongNprospa:


Would you say the protest has been a failure or success?

OasisX:


.....based on what Ruto said here, its a failure.

So you are all for taxing the people even more when the people have said they don't have any more to give.

Lmaoooo

OasisX:




.....but its easy to mention 'in a saner clime', like they ain't paying tax. LOL!

GrammarNazi1:

Since African leaders embezzle a high percentage of tax, Africans shouldn't pay tax anymore.

That reasoning in the paragraph above does not make sense to me.

Segedinho:

So what is the essence of paying tax if it will go to the an external vacuum of embezzlement..

Or

Why should I be forced/coerced/adviced to pay tax if the tax will not be used for what is meant for

Isn't that d definition of suffering and smiling/gaslighting

GrammarNazi1:

In short, Africans shouldn't pay tax again.

Makes sense.

I agree with you.

Segedinho:

You don't have to agree with me ..


This is actually the problem we are facing....accountability..

You are systematically justifying the idea of embezzlement.

If there is a penalty for not paying tax,they also should be a much more grave penalty for embezzlement...

So if d gov thinks it is wise to steal,the masses should actually have a response in the form of protest (since they have no other means to evade the "forced" tax

The saner climes pay tax because the government uses their tax for productive things to ensure they have benefits.

GrammarNazi1:

That reasoning in the paragraph above does not make sense to me.

The pair say they love and respect each other - and they clearly enjoy each other’s company, breaking off to laugh several times during the interview.
For Hassana Mahmud, it is a revelation. The 39-year-old divorcee has been married five times and is impressed by the couple and their evident contentment.
"In all my marriages I have only spent four years with a spouse - so to see them on social media celebrating this milestone was refreshing,” she said.
“My husbands were all nice and caring during courtship but changed after the wedding," said the mother of four.
“I feel bad whenever I hear people call Kano 'the divorce capital of Nigeria', I hope things will change," she added.
Kano gained the epithet after divorce rates began to rise in the 1990s and it has not been able to shake off the unwanted label.
Hundreds of marriages collapse each month in Nigeria’s most populous state, whose capital, Kano city, is the commercial hub of the north.
In 2022 research done by the BBC in collaboration with the local government disclosed that 32% of marriages in Kano state only survive between three and six months.
It also revealed that some people aged between 20 and 25 had already gone through three marriages.

GrammarNazi1:


The part in boldface is your conjecture, not anything I suggested.

Did I say citizens shouldn't protest?

OasisX:




.....Ruto said more when he was in the opposition and Messiah of same youths that want his head now.

Bosun Tijani was damn vocal and loud on X against the Government, but being in the kitchen has opened his eyes to reality.

I ain't sure many of you ever lead/led an organization even at Schools' level in any capacity, hence wouldn't know how it works.

It ain't worth it engaging in this kinda discourse anymore for me, coz its rather Oasis is accused of trolling or a tribalist. LOL!

Make una no pay tax ó jàre, afterall we get plenty oyel for ground and water.
