ADVICE TO ALL MARRIED MEN...

1. If you value your health and you want to live long and have a happy home, let your wife always win an argument. Trust me, it's the shortcut I know to peace of mind! Where there is no wood (fuel), the fire goes out!

2. Stop trying to figure out your wife or understand why she does what she does. It's a waste of precious time. Remember that you (Adam) were put to sleep while she (Eve) was being produced? How can you try to understand an equipment that wasn't assembled in your presence?

3. Marriage is about ACCEPTANCE, not tolerance. Make your marriage relationship-driven, not performance-driven. She was NOT created in your image. Stop projecting YOU into her. Show her the need for change through leadership, not coercion.

4. While a man is rational, the woman is emotional. One (the man) processes via his head, the other processes things through her heart (emotions). One thinks things through, the other feels her way through things. Facts drive you. Intuition drives her. What she can't FEEL, she doesn't SEE!

5. When sex becomes a weapon, a duty or an entitlement, it loses its very essence,
LOVE-MAKING. It simply becomes another chore like dish-washing which nobody looks forward to doing! Play with her. Flirt with her. Serenade her. Hug. Cuddle. Hold hands. Surprise her. Blow gently into her ears while she is cooking or while you are watching a movie together. Be spontaneous. Being a king-kong overlord in "ze oza room" and puffing and panting like a worn-out locomotive while she wonders what just happened can only lead to frustration. Remember, it is never about the size of the weapon but the fury of the attack! (Decode that!)

6. Go out often. Make regular, unscheduled date nights. Take a bath together. Make room for movie nights together either at home or at the cinema.

7. Remember that ONLY THE TWO OF YOU started the journey together and when the children have jumped the nest, only the two of you will remain. So, keep the bond ALL THE WAY and never drop the ball

8. Impregnate her with VISION. Allow her to dream too. Every woman loves a man working towards a future in which she can feature. Remember, woman simply means "womb man". She always wants something to incubate and nourish. You give her a seed, she incubates it and turns it to a baby for you

9. She is your wife, a companion and confidant, not a washing machine, cook or slave. You can't wear her out with chores all day and expect to 'ride' a functional "bicycle" all night! Impossible! Partners help partners by giving a helping hand where needed, even without being told.

10. Love is not 50/50. It is 100%. God didn't say to love your wife when she is submissive. It simply says love her as Christ loved the church and gave himself for her.

11. Be PRESENT. Don't be at home married to your computer, football game or your phone for that matter. Listen when she wants to talk. Even when you don't know what to contribute to the discourse, you will soon discover that all she wanted was for you to listen. Your opinion may not even count!

12. Pray together.j

**5 Benefits of S€x You Must Know **

**It Boosts Intimacy:** Regular sex fosters a deeper connection with your partner over time.

Without sex in a marriage, the relationship can be at risk, as it lacks a vital connecting force.

Each sexual encounter that leads to orgasm triggers the release of oxytocin, a hormone that enhances closeness and strengthens your bond.

**Equips Us to Face Life Together:** While vows signify our commitment, they are just words without the actions that support them.

Engaging in sex helps renew our hopes and commitment, enabling us to pursue life together as a couple.

**Makes Us Feel Wanted and Loved by Our Partners:**

Sex shifts our focus from perceived flaws to our best attributes, reinforcing our standards of attractiveness regardless of appearance.

It also allows us to better understand our bodies and sexual matters, making it easier to discuss these topics with our partners.

**Relieves Stress:** A sexless marriage can increase stress, irrespective of gender, social status, or age. Although stress may diminish our desire for sex, we should not underestimate its importance.

Engaging in sexual activity can alleviate stress and improve our mood, as orgasms boost the production of dopamine in the brain, which helps us feel more relaxed.

**It is One of the Tools for a Happy Marriage:**

Research indicates that couples who engage in sex more frequently tend to be happier than those who do not.

It creates an atmosphere of joy in your marriage, as both partners bond and connect on a deeper level.

TEN TIPS FOR MARRIED COUPLES

Do you often argue with your spouse?
It's normal in marriage. But how can you make your relationship work even when faced with many problems?

Here are some tips to help keep your marriage strong:

WHEN YOUR SPOUSE IS ANGRY, DON'T REACT
Only one person should be angry. If your spouse is upset, let them be, and remain quiet. Wait until they calm down before talking things through, and never go to bed angry.

SELF-CONTROL
You need to learn to control yourself. When you're angry, you shouldn't hurt your spouse, speak harshly, or lash out.

ACCEPTANCE
Accept your spouse for who they are. You chose them, you wanted them. Even their flaws, accept them and endure.

WHEN THERE'S A PROBLEM, TALK ABOUT IT TOGETHER, NOT TO OTHERS
Discuss your issues between the two of you, with family if necessary, but never with neighbors, friends, or post it on social media when you're angry. Don't let disagreements lead to hurt and separation.

WHEN THEY'RE ANGRY, THEY MIGHT SAY HURTFUL THINGS, DON’T TAKE IT PERSONALLY
Remember, when someone is angry, they won't say anything nice. They’re upset, not thinking clearly. Let it go in one ear and out the other.

ALWAYS HUG YOUR SPOUSE AND KIDS
It relieves stress, heals emotional pain, and eases problems.

APPRECIATE YOUR SPOUSE
If they're handsome/beautiful, tell them they are. Compliment their appearance. Don’t doubt that they’re trying to look good for someone else; you should be the first one to appreciate them.

RESPECT
Respect and trust are more important than love. These should never be lost between two people who truly care for each other.

BE A FRIEND TO YOUR SPOUSE
It’s wonderful when your spouse is also your best friend.

OPEN COMMUNICATION
You should always talk to each other. Reminisce about the time when you were dating. Keep going on dates, and if possible, without the kids.

Discuss problems, don’t fight about them

Always remember, "A good husband makes a good wife."

MARRY YOUR MATE

6 MATES YOU MUST MARRY!

One of the ways your marriage will not add to the rate of divorce in our world today is for you to marry your mate and if you are married already, make your spouse your mate!
You see that statement of ' Am I your mate?' does not apply in marriage. You must marry your mate. I will like to talk on seven dimensions you and the person you want to marry or you have married must be mate.

1. #MARRY_YOUR_SPEAKING_MATE: Marry someone you can speak together and understand each other. Communication is very crucial in marriage. Don't marry someone that, when you are saying 'A' he or she will be saying ' Z' Once their is dichotomy in your speaking and understanding level, you can't enjoy that marriage. So many men go to bar to hang out with friends and gist till 11pm because they know their wives can't engage in any meaningful intellectual discussion. So many women too prefer to hang out with their friends, because they know their husbands mentality when it comes to vital issues and discussions is very low. Marry your speaking Mate.

2. #MARRY_YOUR_SCHOOL_MATE:
By this I mean, marry someone you can learn together and improve together. Don't marry ' Mr Know all' or 'Miss Know all'. Don't marry someone who is rigid and not open to new ideas, new ways of doing things, or new innovations. Marriage is a great institution. From day one till death do you part, you will keep learning. Marry your 'school' mate; someone who is ready to learn with you.

3. #MARRY_YOUR_SPIRITUAL_MATE: Marriage is not just a social union. It is also a spiritual union. Marry someone who knows the same God you know. Don't marry someone who's believe of God is different from yours. Two can't work together except they be agreed ( Amos 3:3, Joshua 23: 11-15, 2 Corinthians 6:14-18). The spiritual controls the physical, even in marriage. Check for spiritual compatibility in that person you want to marry.

4. #MARRY_YOUR_SPENDING_MATE: Don't marry someone who is stingy. There are so many expenses to cater for in marriage. A stingy guy in courtship won't suddenly become a generous husband in marriage. Don't marry a lady that has the financial philosophy of ' My husband's money is our money, but my money is my money'. Marry someone who believes in dignity of labour , who is ready to work, not a lazy fellow who just want to be a consumer and not a contributor. Marry someone who is ready to spend and be spent for the growth and success of the family.

5. #MARRY_YOUR_SEX_MATE: Marry someone you have sexual feelings for. Sexual feeling is not a sin. It is an instinct God put in every person. Sex plays a major role in the success of any marriage. Any man you don't have emotional feelings for, don't marry the person. If you don't have emotional feelings for that lady, leave her alone. A spiritual being is also a sexual being. No matter how spiritual you both may be in your marriage, you won't be praying for 24 hours in a day. You won't be reading the Bible or worshipping God 24/7. You will have sex! You will romance! You will flirt with each other! You will make babies. So, marry someone you can connect with sexually. It will help you to enjoy your marriage so much!

6. #MARRY_YOUR_SOCIAL_MATE: Don't marry someone you won't be proud to go out with. Don't marry someone you will be feeling shy to introduce to people with boldness. Marry someone you are comfortable to hang out with. Marry someone you are socially compatible with. Don't marry an anti- social person.
You might be wondering if your can find all the 'mates' in one person. Yes! The answer is YES! You don't need to marry 6 guys/ladies to have all these mates. One person can be all that for you. If you also work on yourself and build your life, you can be all that for the guy/lady that will marry you.
The promise of God for you is this : 'Seek and read from the book of the LORD: Not one of these shall be missing; none shall be without her mate. For the mouth of the LORD has commanded, and his Spirit has gathered them.' (Isaiah 34:16).

ROLES YOU SHOULD PLAY AS A GOOD WIFE

• Every man wants a good wife, and every woman wants to be one.
• The advice given most often to a new bride is to be a good wife but what does this mean?
What are the makings of a perfect or good wife? Most of the qualities needed to be a good wife are already there in a woman, and the rest can be developed or learned. Marriage is not an easy relationship to maintain. With countless marriages ending up in divorce, it is high time to shed some light on what makes a successful marriage.
• The wife is, in the truest sense, the soul of any marriage and without her, the household would be chaotic. So what does a woman need to be a good wife? Irrespective of the fact that no two women are similar, some basic qualities apply to all. Read on to know more.

1. STOP NAGGING
There is a saying in which a nagging wife is compared to a dripping faucet. If you nag and complain constantly, it can create an unwanted rift between you and your husband. This could turn into a vicious cycle, forcing him to avoid you. This can create complications in your relationship and even make them worse as time passes. You cannot expect your husband to like you if he feels that you are constantly disappointed with him. Nagging does not work, so it is best to stop it. Instead, talk to him in a way that makes him want to listen to you and resolve any problems that you might be having. The communication between you will improve by leaps and bounds.

2. KEEP YOUR HOME ORGANIZE
Would you want to live in a messy house? Of course not! Your husband does not want to either. Keep your house neat and clean at all times. The healthy environment at home will uplift his spirits and mood. Think of creative ways to make your home a peaceful sanctuary for him. Chores can be a pain, but by doing them, you can make him dependent on you and miss you when you are not around! There is a quote that goes, “A wife is a friend first, a lover second and third and probably most important, a maid.” Your husband will appreciate all that you do for him and your home, and is sure to think he is the luckiest man to have a wife like you!

3. BE UNPREDICTABLE
Opinions differ when it comes to the question of whether or not unpredictability is a good thing in marriage. Many people feel that being unpredictable keeps things exciting between couples. If things are too predictable in any relationship, it can get boring… and fast! Spice up things in your marriage by surprising your husband as often as you can. It can be in little ways – romantic or cheeky. You can come up with plenty of creative ways to surprise him, but keep in mind that even simple gestures such as cooking his favorite meal or snack will do. The central idea is to surprise him now and then and keep him guessing about what might be next. It is also an excellent way to make him discover the other side of you.

4. GIVE HIM SPACE
Giving each other space is important in any relationship. You need to realize and accept that your husband has a life separate from you. He has other people and relationships too, such as his parents, siblings, and friends. He also has his interests and hobbies. Do not stop him from having this other life. Give him as much space as he needs. This will make him love you more. You also need space and time to do what you like. This will give you and your husband time to miss each other, and appreciate each other.

5. EXPRESS YOUR LOVE
Hiding love does not help your relationship. Your partner will appreciate if you are expressive about your love for him. Find ways to spend time together. Take part in activities that you both enjoy and some that he enjoys more than you. Small gestures are more than enough to show him that you love him. Celebrate the little things with him, remember special days in his life and get occasional gifts that will make him smile. These acts will bring him joy and the special moments and memories you create for him will make him love you more.

6. BE HONEST
A man will trust you only if you are open with him. It is important for you to be honest with your feelings. Trust your husband with everything. Do not keep secrets from him. There has to be mutual trust for a relationship to succeed. Ask him how his day was and let him know about yours. Also, if there is anything that bothers you, have an honest talk with him. Your honesty will encourage your husband to be so. This can only strengthen your relationship and marriage.

7. COMMUNICATE:
Good communication is crucial for a successful marriage. As mentioned earlier, do not nag when problems arise, whether it is in your relationship or at home. Have calm heart-to-hearts instead of going hostile on him when something bothers you. When you communicate properly with your husband, he will be willing to listen to you. It will also make him want to communicate with you. Good communication is a great way to cement your bond. Your husband will appreciate the fact that you would rather sit down and discuss things than yell at him. This will make you exceptional!

8. IMPROVE COMPATIBILITY
Many personality traits attract you and your husband to each other, making you compatible as a couple. However, they may not hold up over time. If any dissimilarity crops up, you cannot simply call yourselves incompatible. You need to understand that compatibility is not something that you have; instead, it is something that you make. As a good wife, you need to make sure that you do not grow apart from your husband. You need to make yourself compatible with your husband. Are you wondering how you can achieve this? It is simple really – you can get along better with your husband by improving your relationship skills. This includes resolving conflicts and making compromises. Remember the words “A perfect wife is one who does not expect a perfect husband.” You can make sure that you and your husband eventually become soul mates by creating compatibility.

9. POSSESS POSITIVE QUALITIES
To be a good wife, you need to possess positive qualities. You need to be warm, kind, pleasant, caring, affectionate, friendly, positive and understanding. You need to be reliable, responsible and make your husband have confidence in you. Your warm welcome with a smile will relax him after a long and hard day at work. Be loyal to him and support him in his failures and successes. Be there for him especially when things are tough, whether at home or work.

10. LOOK GOOD
It may seem trivial, but it is not. Take care of yourself and look good after marriage. Many women make a mistake of ignoring their looks after marriage. The fact is that looks will keep your husband attracted to you. Make sure that his attention is on you. Maintain your health as well, as good health reflects on your looks and mood. Men love having a wife who takes care of herself and looks good. Looking good will boost your confidence and self-esteem, and make you attractive to your husband.

11. GO ON DATES
You may be having bigger responsibilities on your shoulders, but those should not be a hindrance to romance. The spark between you and your husband need not die out. Go on dates whenever you can, like you used to do before you got married. Go out for a romantic meal or arrange a picnic for two. Go for dinner and a movie like you used to. A great date will leave a lasting impression. Going out now and then will rekindle the romance. It will do your relationship wonders. Your husband is sure to be thankful for the wonderful dates and for recreating the magic.

12. ACCEPT HIS FRIENDS
After you get married, you accept each other’s lifestyle as long as it does not threaten the peace and joy of your marriage. The same goes well for friends. Understand that your husband has friends, and he needs to spend some time with them, maybe a night of poker or at a game. Take the time and effort to get to know his friends and realize that they hold a special place in your husband’s heart. Be his friend by accepting his friends. Women who try to keep their husbands away from their friends, do that in vain. It is not healthy. He will love you for making an effort to know his friends and welcome.

13. BE HIS BEST FRIEND
The best marriage is the one where the couple is each other’s best friend. Nothing is better than being in love with your best friend. This is a love that is deep, strong and genuine. Allow a healthy friendship to develop between you and your husband, and see what a difference it makes to your life. Your marriage will rock.

14. CHOOSE FIGHT SMART:
Do you know of any marriage that does not have fights? In fact, every relationship has its share of differences. A good wife knows which fights to choose. You need to know which fights are necessary and which are not. No one willingly gets into a fight, but some problems and topics are just too petty to waste your energy. A harmless “Hi” that your husband says to an old friend when they bump into each other after a long time or a work thing that he cannot get out of are not something that you should fight about. They are simply not worth it and will not make your marriage any good. So think twice the next time you get angry.

15. BE YOURSELF
You and your husband are now partners for life. You will probably spend the rest of your lives together. This means that you need to be yourself, and also, allow your husband to do the same. A good wife brings out the best in her husband but never tries to change him. Be the unique person that you are. This way, you will appreciate and love each other for who you are and that is one of the most important things in a successful marriage.

16. PRAY FOR YOUR HUSBAND

A praying wife is a winning wife. If you must get the best out of your marriage, pray for your husband always. Stand in gap for your marriage. Prayerfully destroy the spirit of marital crisis, misunderstanding, divorce etc. Don't wait until there are crisis before you pray for your home. STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AND PRAY FOR YOUR HOME WITHOUT CEASING

You will not fail in marriage in Jesus name

LIFE LESSONS FOR BOTH MEN AND WOMEN
Love and Relationship Affairs

1. Self-respect is the foundation of everything. If you don’t respect yourself, don’t expect others to.

2. Your habits define your future. What you do daily will either build you or break you. Choose wisely.

3. Not everyone will clap for you. Some people secretly hope you fail. Stay focused and prove them wrong.

4. Discipline is stronger than motivation. Motivation fades, but discipline keeps you moving when you don’t feel like it.

5. Silence is powerful. You don’t have to react to everything. Sometimes, the best response is no response.

6. Learn to enjoy your own company. If you can’t find peace alone, you’ll always seek distractions to fill the void.

7. Your energy is precious. Stop wasting it on people and situations that drain you. Protect your peace.

8. Nobody owes you anything. Life doesn’t give handouts. You either work for it or remain stagnant.

9. Your mind is your greatest asset. Feed it with knowledge, wisdom, and positive thoughts. The world is already full of negativity—don’t add to it.

10. Let actions speak louder than words. People can promise anything, but watch what they do. That’s where the truth is.

11. Not everyone is meant to stay in your life. Some people are just lessons, not lifelong companions. Accept and move on.

12. Happiness is an inside job. If you rely on others to make you happy, you will always be disappointed.

13. Time is the most valuable currency. Spend it wisely because you can never get it back.

14. You don’t have to explain yourself to everyone. Live your life, make your moves, and let results speak for themselves.

15. Rejection is not the end—it’s redirection. What you lost was making space for something better. Trust the process.

16. The strongest people are those who have been through the worst. Pain builds resilience. Use it to grow, not to stay bitter.

17. Kindness is free, but don’t let people take advantage of you. Be good, but not naive.

18. Your circle determines your growth. Surround yourself with people who inspire and challenge you.

19. Success comes from consistency, not luck. Keep going, even when it’s hard. Small efforts daily create big results over time.

20. In the end, your life is your responsibility. No one will save you. Take control, make smart choices, and build a future you’re proud of.

You will always meet ladies who are more attractive than your woman, you will meet ladies with more vibes, you will meet women who are more informed, you will meet women who acts as though they care more than your woman.

Also as a woman you will meet men who are far richer than your man, you will meet men with more attractive body than your man, you will meet men with more vibes, you will meet men who act more caring than your spouse, you will meet men who talks better than your man;

I mean men who knows how to say sweet words, crack jokes. Etc.
Note. People must always be better than others in some areas of life.

And sometimes the people we see as being better than our spouses may not even be what we feel they're. Note. People show you what they want you to see and most of the time it is not their true self they reveal outside.

Learn to appreciate your partner

Love your partner without any reservations.

Whenever you feel unsatisfied regarding any aspect your partner is not doing well, be willing enough to open up to him/her.
Be satisfied please.

It takes commitment, and self control and discipline to stay faithful, and believe me it is achievable.

Love is never enough, self-discipline and relentless commitment is very essential when it comes to relationship/marriage.

Stay Faithful.

*Without Regular Sex Women Risk Mental Disorder – Psychiatrist*

A psychiatrist, Dr Maymunah Kadiri on Saturday advised married women to have regular sex with their spouses in order to prevent depression and gain happiness.

Depression is a common mental disorder that causes people to experience depressed mood, loss of interest or pleasure, feelings of guilt or low self-worth, disturbed sleep or appetite, low energy, and poor concentration.

Kadiri, the Medical Director of Pinnacle Medical Services gave the advice in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.
Pinnacle is a health and wellness centre for psychological, behavioral, and mental health related issues.

According to her, sex is not just to nourish a woman’s body, but it is also beneficial to her mental health.

“As women, there is need for us to make our spouses our best friends if we want to be mentally healthy.

“Studies have shown that women who have more active sex and in long term relationships were less likely to be depressed than women who went without sex.

“So, more sex is important and essential. It is a remedy to curing women from having persistent headache.

“Low sexual drive, which leads to depression, should be looked into. A woman can be depressed when that sexual drive that she used to have is no more there.

“Frequent active sex can play good roles toward women’s sense of well being and quality of life,’’ Kadiri said.

She explained that sex was not just for procreation and to have children, adding that it could create bonding, good companionship and sound sleep.

Kadiri, popularly called ‘celebrity shrink’, urged women dealing with depression to frequently indulge in sex, while boosting their self-esteem.

She also advised women who are over-weight to also involve in active sex, saying doing so will boost endorphins which are happy hormones.

“The happy hormones will make them lose some calories as well as sleep better.

”Orgasms trigger the release of endorphins which are happy hormones secreted by the brain that act as effective painkillers,’’ she said.

She added that sex was not only beneficial to the men, but especially to women because it was capable of freeing them from stress.
Sex accordingly. (For married ones only). A lot of people don't associate sex with God - they associate it with Satan and darkness, as if sex is not holy .Sex is holy within marriage, and there is no prescribed style.

Not discussing sex in a relationship leads to divorce!! I have counseled women who've complained: my husband treats me as if I were his sister. There was one who told me: I am tired of getting sex fortnightly, like a salary. I told her she was lucky to be getting sex fortnightly, since some wives only get it on big days, like elections and Christmas and birthdays

Many husbands leave their wives to seek sexual pleasures in Avenues . Have you ever asked yourself what those women have that you don't. Wives have become very frigid and even sleep with their panties. If you're a married woman, you should sleep naked and let your bum touch your husband.

Today you find men going out of their way to get a glimpse of a vagina. They page through magazines and even go to lingerie departments in stores hoping to see what's hidden under panties because their wives hide it from them. Marriage is about being free with your body in front of your partner.

A woman should parade naked and do some modeling to tempt her husband. There are many married women who don't know what their husband's penises looks like. She only feels it when he enters her. They've never touched it, let alone seen it, because the husband switches off the lights before undressing. A penis is a wife's toy - she is supposed to play with it.

I blame couples for not making time for sex and complaining about being tired after a day's work. You find many couples who've been sexually starved for years. God created sex for procreation and also for pleasure. You can't marry and not have a good time in bed.

*WHO SAID YOU CAN ONLY HAVE SEX AT NIGHT?*

Why can't you drive home during lunch and have a quickie with your wife? We're all equal in sex - it's not just about a woman satisfying a man. You have to satisfy each other. Have you ever seen a woman who has been satisfied? Have u noticed how she glows and becomes energetic?
May God Bless you.

This is the Whole Truth, Nothing But The Truth. Once you read this you have to keep it going. Age has nothing to do with sex. The older u are the more u should enjoy it but do it in God's way.

Make sure your spouse reads this. Also Send to all your married friends, Grandmas & grandpas send it to your married children. You may just be saving a marriage from divorce.

"I heard my mother asking the neighbors for salt."
But we had salt in the house. I asked her why she was asking the neighbors for salt.

And she answered me: —Because our neighbors don't have a lot of money and often they ask us for something.
From time to time, I also ask them for something small and inexpensive, so that they feel that we need them too. This way they will feel more comfortable and easier for them to keep asking us for everything they need."

Respect for human dignity is undoubtedly one of the noblest feelings.
And that's exactly what I learned from my parents... Let's build empathetic, humble, supportive children and other values to be valued...!!❤

IF YOU WANT TO SUCCEED IN LIFE, Listen to This!

1 - Never think about rankings. Your only concern should be not going backward.

2 - Do not waste time; time is very precious, and your life is limited. (Be organized) in your prayers, sleep, waking up, work, meals, commitments, and exercise.

3 - Do not wait for a miracle. Do not wait for opportunities to come; you are the one who creates opportunities.

4 - Do not complain about the pain of training or the taste of food like a child. You are a warrior. Build a personality that is patient and adaptable. No matter how tough things get, adapt to them and overcome them.

5 - Keep getting up after every fall. You are stronger than you think. Good food, enough sleep, consistent training, a bright yet intimidating smile revealing your sharp fangs, self-confidence, and an unbeatable physique—yes, you, the one reading this! You were born to be a champion.

6 - Excessive socializing may develop your social intelligence and make you experienced in dealing with people, but your mind will not create anything new. (So, socialize, but not excessively.)

7 - Making someone your role model completely destroys your mind. Let your noble self be your only role model. You were not born foolish; rather, freezing your mind and shaping it to be like someone else is what truly dulls your intelligence.

8 - Deep relationships—never make anyone an essential part of your life. Get close to whomever you wish, but always keep in mind the possibility of their absence one day so that your thinking mechanism is not destroyed.

9 - Never become what others want you to be. Do not change, modify, or alter anything about yourself or your life. Live as you see fit, in a way that pleases God—that is the best way to live.

MY FATHER'S ADVICE...
1. Not everything will go as you expect in your life. This is why you need to drop expectations and go with the flow.
2.Reduce bitterness from your life, that **** delays blessings!
3. Dating a supportive woman is everything.

8. Detachment is power. Release anything that doesn't bring you peace.
9. Only speak when your words are more beautiful than your silence.
10. Invest in your looks. Do it for no one else but yourself. When you look good, you feel good. Normalize dressing well, you're broke not mad.
11. Some people want to see everything go wrong for you because nothing is going right for them.
12. Being a good person doesn't get you loved. It gets you used.
13. Don't be afraid of losing people, be afraid of losing yourself by trying to please everyone around you.
14. Keep your move private. Don't announce it until it's SEALED! Premature announcements attract bad spirits. Best thing you can do is stop telling people what's going on in your life.
15. For the sake of your mental health don't love too hard, therapy sessions are expensive. Also, marry when you're ready, not when you're lonely.
16. Your thoughts are very powerful, make them positive.
17. Social media will make you envy someone you should actually pity.
18. Nobody owes you anything on your birthday, learn to save money and spoil yourself.

26. The sooner you figure out which chairs don't belong at your table, the more peaceful your meals become.
27. If you want to run, first you must learn to walk. Yes, the dreams are big, but you have to start somewhere, and doing something is better than nothing at all. Start small, stay consistent and watch it get bigger.
28. Before spending money on someone else, make sure your family is good.
29. What comes easy, won't last. What lasts, won't come easy.
30. Normalize lying to people who ask you lots of questions about your personal life.
31. One day you'll test HIV positive because of forgiving cheating partners.
32. Some Ex's need to understand that even if we hear they now drive a plane or own the world, we will never regret leaving them.
33. Avoid peer pressure.
34. Do not abuse and kill women. Respect yourself.

“5 THINGS NO ONE TALKS ABOUT BEFORE MARRIAGE"

Sometime ago, I told a married friend of mine I was going to wash his car for free in exchange for some delicious marriage advice that they hardly discuss in Church.

I mean like practical everyday things my partner and I should know before we walk down the altar, not the regular 'submit to your husband, love your wife like you love yourself, only missionary style is godly, respect your in-laws, and all other things they teach us on the surface that we have heard and tired.

I washed his car cheerfully after he shared these 5 deep facts with me, I believe it will bless you too...

05- EMOTIONAL TEMPERAMENTS: Do not wait until marriage to find out how deeply emotional your partner can be, and to what limits.

What are his breaking points? How does she deal with a fight? How do we apologize after a disagreement? Is keeping mute or ignoring your calls her own idea of avoiding a fight? Does he love to be left alone after an argument as a way of avoiding a confrontation? It is so important that you talk about these things when the 'I love you' is still fresh, to help you have a good knowledge of your partner's reactions when they come.

04- HOLIDAYS AND TRADITIONS: Wow! Holidays can be so wonderful together, but where do we spend most of our holidays? And with whose parents do we spend it with, mine or yours? Is it okay for my family and relatives to come around for a holiday? Whose family traditions do we pass on to our children?

You might think 'naaa, this isn't important' , but wait until marriage when one mother in-law decides it's her right to be visiting the family every weekend while the other mother in-law is not happy she only gets to see her grandchildren once every Christmas.

03- SPIRITUAL TEMPERAMENTS: it is not enough to know that your partner is a Christian, God-fearing, and all other pretty Christian stories we make up to qualify a spouse!

How is his relationship with God? How does she reflect her excitement about God with other people around her? Does your partner charge you to get intimate with God? Does he approve of morning devotions? Does he approve of raising an altar for God in the house? What are their beliefs about tithing and seeding? Where do they stand concerning faith principles like first fruits and charity? I hope you know it is possible to have a prayer strength of 6 hours and still not believe in seeding.

02- HOUSE HOLD DUTIES: this is one thing we never talk about. Women do all the chores right? But WRONG! Unless you are comfortable with playing the ‘complete house wife duty’, then you’ve got to talk about who does the what, at what times, and at what conditions? Whose turn to look after the baby, who drops them off at school and back, who takes the car to work, who pounds the fufu? Etc. Heheheeheh, I can hear some unromantic men saying “Godforbid I cannot pound any fufu after paying the bride price”. Lol

01- MONEY STUFF: some of us are more comfortable with our boyfriend taking us to exotic places to eat and drink lavishly, buy us expensive gift presents, and spend big on extravagant dates. But we forget to pay attention to his ability to manage his finances, spending habits, credit history, and bills. What will our budget look like? How should we save? How do we invest? How much does she earn? What is she bringing to the table?

00- SEX: hehehe, I would have loved to talked about this too, but the strong things he shared with me, hmmmm, if I share them here some people will start dreaming dreams and seeing visions in this cold weather. Soo bye bye!

There are a lot more cardinal points than the above listed five, things like love language, family orientation, business sense, adversity quotient, core values and principles e.t.c. but sadly, the majority focus more on physical appearance, pocket strength and sexual ability. We live in a society where men especially are weighed by their pocket strengths and gbola size. Frivolities have become priorities in these present days and it's so sad.
But God will Help us to choose right & love right.

If you see a future with that partner of yours, and you haven’t taken time to deal with these topics yet, please hurry and get on with it. Because this will become the big talking point a day after the WEDDING.

Late Justice Moses Bello’s Daughter Drag Siblings To Court, Demands DNA Test For Siblings.......

…Gives 14-Days Ultimatum

Ann Bello, daughter of the late Justice Moses Bello, former President of the Abuja Customary Court of Appeal, has issued a 14-day ultimatum for DNA tests to be conducted on all her father’s children. She warned that failure to comply would result in criminal charges for breach of trust.

According to a report shared by Blueprint, Ann’s demand follows a recent ruling by Justice Mohammed Zubairu of the FCT High Court in Kurudu. The court declared that a codicil (a document meant to modify a will) attached to Justice Bello’s will was invalid, meaning only the original will remains legally binding.

Before the ruling, Ann had challenged the executors of the will in court, claiming she was being denied her rightful inheritance. She filed a lawsuit (suit number CV/667/2024) against Reverend Father Ezekiel Awolumate and Christ the King Catholic Church, Okene Parish. In her suit, she argued that she was given only 4.16% of her father’s estate instead of the 11.11% stated in the original will.

Ann also requested that the executors of the will be removed, accusing them of failing to distribute the estate according to her father’s instructions.

However, the court ruled against Ann’s claim that the codicil was valid, stating that it was more of a private letter to the late judge’s solicitor and did not meet legal requirements, such as having witness signatures.

Following the judgment, Ann sent an official notice to Rev. Father Awolumate, demanding DNA tests for Joseph Asuku Bello and six others. She argued that paragraph 5(a)(i) of her father’s will makes the DNA test a condition for inheritance. If they fail to comply, they must forfeit all assigned money, properties, and assets.

Her legal counsel also warned that any attempt to sell or transfer Justice Bello’s assets would be opposed. He added that failure to comply with the DNA test requirement could lead to criminal charges against the executors and affected parties.

With this 14-day ultimatum, pressure is now on the executors to act swiftly or face legal consequences.

*Knowledge is key*
*What is the biological phenomenon that appears in human gradual loss of muscle mass, strength and function when they are growing older?*
This is known as *Sarcopenia*!
*Sarcopenia* is a gradual loss of muscle mass, strength and function... the loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength as a result of aging... The situation may be terrible, depends on individual.
Let's explore & analyze multiple ways to prevent *sarcopenia* thus:
1. Develop the habit, if you're able to stand... just don't sit, and don't lie down if you can sit!
2. Whenever an elderly person falls ill, and get admitted to the hospital, do not ask him/her for more rest, or to lie down, relax and/or not get out of bed... It's not helpful. Help them take a walk... Except if they lost stamina to do so.
Lying down for a week causes loss of at least 5% of muscle mass! And unfortunately, the elderly can't recover the loss muscles!
Usually, most seniors/elderly who hire assistants loses muscle faster than the active ones!
3. *Sarcopenia* is more terrifying than osteoporosis!
With osteoporosis, one just need to be careful not to fall, while sarcopenia not only affects the quality of life but also causes high blood sugar due to insufficient muscle mass!
4. The fastest loss of muscles (atrophy) is through idleness in muscles of the legs...
Because when in sitting or lying position, the legs do not move, and the strength of the muscles of the legs are directly affected... This is especially important to pay unto utmost attention!
Going up and down stairs... walking, running and cycling are all great exercises, and can increase muscle mass!
For a better quality of life at old age... Move... & don't waste your muscles!!
Aging starts from the feet upwards!
Keep your legs active and strong!!
As we grow older on a daily basis, our feet should always stay active and strong.
If you don't move your legs for just 2 weeks, your real leg strength will decrease by 10 years.
Therefore, *regular exercises such as walking, cycling etc. are very important*.
The feet are a kind of columns that bear the entire weight of the human body.... So,
*_Walk every day!_*

STORY OF THE DAY KNOW HISTORY OF AFRICA:

THE ST0RY 0F SARAH BAARTMAN- a.k.a Aye Vu Ubrukebe Ode.

The story of Sarah Baartman of South Africa who had an unusual long backside.

Sarah Baartman, also known as Saartjie Baartman, was a Khosa woman who was born in South Africa in the late 1789. She is famous for being exhibited as a freak show attraction in Eur0pe in the early 18th century because of her large buttocks, which were considered unusual and exotic at the time.

Baartman was born in the Gamtoos Valley, in what is now the Eastern Cape province of South Africa. She was a member of the Khoikhoi, a group of indigenous people who lived in the region. As a young woman, Baartman was taken from her home by a Brițish ship's doctor, William Dunlop, who promised her work as a servant in Cape Town. However, instead of being employed as a servant, Baartman was taken to England and exhibited as a sideshow attraction under the name "Hottentot Venus."

Baartman's large buttocks and elongated labia were considered unusual and exotic, and she was put on display in London and Paris, where people paid to gawk at her. She was also made to perform various tricks, such as dancing and singing, for the entertainment of spectators. Baartman was treated poorly during this time and was not paid for her performances.

Baartman died of siphilys in 1815 at the age of 26. She was s.exually a.ssaulted multiple times and her captors paid in exchange to experience ssehura also know by stage name The Hottentot venus , and her remains were dissected and put on display in a museum in Paris. In 2○○2, the South African government successfully campaigned for the return of Baartman's remains to South Africa, and she was finally laid to rest in 2002.

Baartman's story is a tragic one and serves as a reminder of the explòitation and mistreàtment of people of color throughout
history may she rest in eternal peace...

The police escort attached to the Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mojisola Meranda has been withdrawn.

The police escorts and those securing the Assembly complex were also withdrawn with immediate effect.

This development is said to have left Meranda and the Assembly without formal security cover.

Confirming the development, a source told Tribune: “As we speak, all security has been withdrawn from the Speaker, and she is now on her own.”

He further warned that the Speaker is now “vulnerable and open to attack,” stressing the urgent need for authorities to address the situation.

On January 13, 2025, Modashiru Obasa was impeached as the Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly by lawmakers while he was in the United States, US.

Upon his return, Obasa contested his impeachment, stressing that it didn’t follow due process.

But, Meranda was immediately sworn in as the new Speaker and got the blessings of the Lagos State Governance Advisory Council, GAC.

However, there are reports of Obasa’s return, hence the withdrawal of Meranda’s security details.

Holding a grudge doesn't make you strong; it makes you bitter. Forgiving doesn't make you weak; It sets you free.
