These are a lifesaver if you pop a
button or a seam. Also, a small one can pinch-hit for a necklace clasp if it suddenly breaks.

A Nigerian man based in South Africa says he does not regret buying a Mercedes-Benz G-class for a South African man as a token to apologise for impregnating his wife. “I know what I did is wrong but I feel better now that he has accepted my gift. He accepted that his wife, my girlfriend, is pregnant and will soon give birth to my son. He was angry at first but when I presented the car to him his anger vanished,” said the man who identified himself as John.
One source close to the family of the woman who fell pregnant said that she knew about the affair but never thought it would lead to a pregnancy. She said "She is disappointed the husband accepted the Mercedes-Benz from the Nigerian national".
“Nigerian men will never take our men seriously. What kind of a man accepts a gift from a man who impregnated his wife? He will impregnate her again and buy the stupid husband another car. I am so disappointed,” she said.
When approached for a comment the husband said “it is wrong to say I am stupid. The point of the matter is we cannot reverse what happened. We sat down as men and sorted the issue. The Bible says we must forgive and forget. I have always dreamed of driving a G-wagon. Christmas came early for me and my family,” said the husband who didn’t want to be named. “The baby will be born and I’ll take care of him as my own. If the father wants to take him to Nigeria I wouldn’t mind. I will give my wife the support she needs always. That is what marriage is all about. I love my wife and will not leave her because of a mere pregnancy,” he added.

If na you, wetin you go do?
"I love the freedom I have.
I can wake up anytime I want
I can eat whatever I want
I so love it!
Then comes that one person
Telling me I need to brace up
Trade my freedom for a partner
Share my space and my heart
Create a new family
Love them more than life…..
Though I could imagine this happening
But still I wonder……………
Is marriage really a must?"

There are so many single men and women who ask this question. After talking to them, one thing becomes apparent—their question was borne out of their past experiences. To every single person who is fed up of going into relationships (not because
they enjoy being alone but) because they’re tired of trying, I’ve got one answer for you: “Yes it is!”
Marriage is a must for every matured single except in cases that has to do with religious or secular beliefs. You need to cling to hope. Everyone is entitled to find a significant “other” that fills their lives with companionship, romance, support and love. This is why I am emphasizing this—yes, marriage is a must!
I remember a single Muslim sister I met few years ago. She was 34 years old and had been single since she was 30. According to her (although you could even see it all over her) she grew up in the UK and US. I learnt from her that all the few single men that came a bit close to her were not interested in her because they felt that she’s too westernized for them and most of those who are in her age group were already married. Of course she wears a scarf every time she's in public but after speaking with her, I noticed she’s also social in an acceptable way and very jovial.
On the outside she lives her life like she's independent and does not care about marriage but she opened up to me that she still has that strong hope that one day she’ll meet a good single Muslim guy that would love her the way she is and ask for her hand in marriage. So also we have single Christian sisters
who have been devoted in service to God. Most brothers in their churches either feel they are too spiritual or they are not social enough and therefore prefer to go in search of a lady to get married to outside the church.
In a situation like this, the lady may eventually realize she’s not getting younger and therefore begin to question the necessity of the institution called marriage.
Marriage should not be questioned. It is a very important aspect of everyone’s life. Biblically, the reason why marriage is important is because it is for companionship, procreation of children, mutual societal helps and comfort that
one ought to have for the other, both in prosperity and adversity. Marriage was ordained as a remedy against sin and to avoid fornication. This is why most
pastors or counselors advice matured singles to get married and avoid indecent sex, involvement in immoralities and to prevent jumping from one bed to the other.
There are so many singles who believe marriage is just as insecure as relationships. They do not want to be tied down by a piece of paper because they’ve been cheated in past relationships. You need to know that marriage is not about two people. It involves the two
families, lineage, history, culture and ethnicities. Your union is the connector that brings these elements together.
Marriage is also based on religion
whether you are a religious person or not, its laws are governed by religion in one way or the other.
Marriage is also important because whether you like it or not, it actually gives you security. It is to hold husbands accountable for a wife. I’m not saying marriage licenses are romantic but they are meant to hold people accountable for one spouse and any children conceived of that union.
Marriage gives you a title better than a live-in girlfriend, baby mama or baby daddy. It gives you a name to be respected in public and society at large.
Some people are running away from marriage because of the rate at which divorce is rising. Know today that marriage is not the cause of divorce.
What most people are ignorant of is that 9 out of 10 couples who cohabit before getting married are at a higher risk of divorce, therefore, I also do not encourage living with that man before you’re married to him.
As singles don’t say because you are already a live-in girlfriend/boyfriend, marriage is no more important. That does not guarantee your security. It also
does not stop you from getting
heartbroken. Matured singles should keep their hope alive and focus their eyes on the goal
which is to eventually get married.
Wish you luck in your relationships……..
Pray the good one eventually leads to marriage!
Cheers.. 🍻
Culled from "STRANDED"
Weeks ago, a post made by a Nigerian woman trended on social media where she advised her fellow women to cook with menstrual blood and serve their men to eat as punishment for cheating.
This week, yet another Nigerian woman took to Facebook to share her idea for Punishing cheating men.
She wrote, “If your man is cheating on you, don’t argue with him my sister because you will not win. Save yourself from High blood pressure…. Just change all the names of the girls on his phone…Do not delete the numbers…
Mix them… Replace Wunmi with Kubura… Modupe with Vicky… Yetunde with Iyabo….so on and on.
Wait the moment he’s gonna call or sms them one by one… Make yourself a cup of coffee and relax… You’ll thank me later".

What's your say on her advice?
Interesting! A man from Akwa Ibom decided to be original and creative with his wedding invitation card ahead of the ceremony coming up in few weeks time. Their wedding card which were printed in Pidgin English, have intrigued many Nigerians online due to its unique flavour. This is the card below…
As a bachelor that I am, I went to the foodstuff store to get some foodstuffs (Don't ask me what I bought, amebo), as the level of the ones in my cupboard has decreased. I met a woman there who was buying some foodstuffs. Afterwards, she began to connive with the trader. The following conversations ensued between them.
Trader: Madam, the total cost is #7500
Woman: OK, have it. But one more thing, I'm going to tell my husband that I owe you a balance of #5000. In case he passes by and gives you the money. Kindly collect it, keep it for me and any day I come here, I'll have it from you.
Trader: OK madam, no problem
Woman: Good bye
The woman weakened me..
