Family / Re: Couple Heads For Divorce Over Wife's Secret Property Purchase by SmartyPants(m): 8:38am On Apr 01
79733139:
That's not automatic in Nigeria. The wife has to prove that she played a role in the acquisition of the property.


That's a common misconception. It is entirely at the discretion of the judge and contributions may be assessed on a non financial basis.

Kindly go through the below, carefully, and pay attention to the principle laid down in Eke v. Eke.

Someone needs to tell this man to trim his beard, because what kind of a bush is this?

But anyways, if tables were turned, they'd have said the woman is a gold digger... The husband feels emasculated simply because the wife didn't include his name as well, like no one is stopping him from also buying his own property in his name.

You know fully well that there's no such thing as a property bought in a man's name. The Courts will split it in half without thinking twice

Imagine if Igbo hunters were found with den guns and killed in Ogun State.


Stop deceiving yourself, there is no way the Igbos will love Nigeria no matter all the propaganda against them.







Why wound yourself with all sorts of useless imaginations? Is there a time in the history of Nigeria that Igbos have been molested in Ogun state? No one cares if you love Nigeria anyway as your love is of no use but don't be stupid.

What does any of this have to do with my post? Did I say anything about whether or not he should have or should not have announced the elections? And who told you I am Yoruba?

papyjaypaul:
It's inappropriate communication because the lecturer is in a position of authority.

This does not apply to university settings where everyone is an adult. At most, most universities will simply ask that Lecturer-student relationships be declared to the relevant supervisory bodies. That's all. Even using common sense you should know that what you attached doesn't apply here.

This is just it!

Maybe the money they make is affecting some of them. I wish there'd be acoach who will come with so much discipline for the Super Eagles players. Even make strict controversial rules, such as no dreadlocks for anyone who wants to play, or no coloured hair




There's pride in that team, and possibly cliques.

Most of the players earn more than the coach, and the coach Milan also be collecting tips from them. This may make it difficult to really control them. A no nonsense coach is what Nigeria needs. Not one who can be influenced by money to feature players.
Nigeria needs a coach who can be mean to ask players not to dye their hairs, if they want to be in the team. Discipline is needed!

This particular coach can't be collecting tips from these boys. He was a former player and has coached in many places. He is a big name in his own right. Moreover, he as a European and such ymcukture will be strange to him.
And it's not about hairstyle either. I'm sure you will agree that none of these boys has a hairstyle as crazy as Taribo West. What they lack is something that must be instilled in you from a very young age and it can neither be taught nor instilled into an adult.

Drive comes from a strong sense of self esteem and purpose. A constant desire to be better because you have a higher purpose.

You either have it or you don't.

There is a lot of talent in that team but so little drive. Osimhen actually wants to be great but most of the others are just happy enough to wear the super eagles jersey.

Zimbabwe outperformed who? You guys talk a lot of nonsense on this site. Nigeria clearly outplayed Zimbabwe for the entire game, but lost concentration at the end.

We created numerous chances but lacked the finishing edge.

Very useless first half

I blame the coach. By now he ought to have realized that Chukwueze shouldnt even be in his sqaud let alone starting. His is a playground player not a serious professional.

Secondly, the Zimbabweans are an attacking team. Thus game calls for a second deep lying midfielder like Onyedika.

For Fubara To checkmate Wike is very easy, because wike has played all his cards nothing new is coming out anymore

The only thing Fubara will do now is go privately and see president Tinubu, swear his allegiance to him so that his reelection will be easy and he enjoys federal backing.

This will frustrate wike for another 6 years… because when the person you’re fighting is also backed by your boss, your chances of winning is cutoff.


Fubara being with Tinubu will put more fear in wike politically and become obedient because Fubara has all wikes files that will implicate wike while he was governor, and this will be the biggest file Tinubu will have against wike to make him obedient forever…


Wike only exposed all his cards using court and state Assembly…


Once Fubara makes this move, wike relevance is cut, wike might not return as minister in 2027 because he has nothing to offer Tinubu again.


Tinubu long plan of controlling Rivers politics will now be secured even after leaving office.



Tinubu needs to be studied in Nigerian schools, how he checkmates other politicians by playing their game and beating them in their game.

Assuming this is how it works...why would Tinubu trust Fubara? The oath Fubara swore to Wike did he keep it?

I am still on my point, if he gave them what needed, they won't leave his Church. Nehemiah 13:1-13 made us to understand that Musicians/Choirs and Ushers are also entitled to Tithes, why are GOs against this?

Seems you don't get it. People like Wizkid and Tiwa Savage, for example, starting singing in Church. Can church give Wizkid and Tiwa the level of money and fame they've gotten from the world?

Why comment so boldly when you didn't watch the video? His point is about how artists start from Church and then use the platform church gave them to enter world music or to otherwise use it fr their own gain.

I think the yardstick isn't accurate.
It should also be measured alongside the number of matches played too.

For example:
If I play 10 matches and score a total of 57 goals compared to someone who played 38 matches and scored 63 goals, please who's is the GOAT 🐐?

So check and do the computation for yourself.


Spoiler alert: Osimhen has played less games.

Osimhen will hit 100 goals for Nigeria if he is injury free and if Nigeria plays more games. He is still very young.

Meanwhile, where is the name of the most celebrated Kanu Nwankwo and J J Okocha on the list?

JJ had 15 goals so just below Musa. Always remember that he did this while running the midfield and no other midfielder is ahead of him in goals scored.

You guys need to realize that he was doing exactly what the coach told him. In the last 20 minutes the game was about possession. He did it very well.
