HOW TO TALK TO YOUR MAN ABOUT A SENSITIVE ISSUE

We sometimes complain that the men don't want to talk or listen. Here's some things that could help..

WATCH YOUR TONE
When upset or frustrated, your tone could easily become sharp, harsh, condescending and full of coldness. A man doesn't like engaging anyone with such a tone. Approach him with peace and the issue will be resolved in peace

TIMING
Straight after work is not the time for a deep talk. One is mentally and physically tired. Let him relax first, put his feet up and approach the subject at a good time

WATCH YOUR EYES
Men get repelled by condescending and mean eyes. I'm sure you would too

DON'T ENGAGE HIM WHEN HE IS DRUNK
If your man is they type that gets intoxicated, don't bother yourself to talk serious issues. Wait till he is sober to have a meaningful talk

DON'T CONFRONT HIM IN FRONT OF YOUR CHILD(REN)
Infront of the kids be cordial, smile, show unity and when it's just you and him, then talk about the issue

DON'T ACCUSE HIM FALSELY
Some women do this. However, this is the easiest way to make him feel attacked and to break the delicate fabric of trust between you two. Before you jump into conclusions, ask him questions politely. Talk with facts. Don't interrogate, politely ask.

DON'T CAUSE A SCENE
A man loses respect for a woman who causes a scene in public or in front of family or friends

SOOTHE HIM
If you want to introduce a topic that has been bothering you, hold on to it. Prepare him his favourite meal, do things that make him feel good. While he is in a good mood, lovingly introduce the issue for discussion

BE IN CONTROL OF YOUR EMOTIONS
If the issue is heavy, be prepared for a conversation that will be heavy on your heart but remain calm and collected. Being frantic and delirious will not aid your cause.

NO INSULTS
Watch your tongue. Keep calm. Insulting him or parading his weaknesses and past mistakes will complicate things. You need him to know you are on the same team

DON'T INTRODUCE OTHER PEOPLE'S OPINIONS
Don't tell him things like 'Even my mum thinks you should...', 'My friend Kajwang who is a man thinks we should...", "Zamira says her husband..." Don't show him you talk about your personal issues with outsiders. Don't show him you value other people's opinion more than his. Don't show him your motivation is based on comparing you two with other couples

BOOST HIS EGO A TAD ;)
Appreciate him more than you criticize him. If you want a man to grow in doing good, praise him for the good he does big and small. When you make him feel like a hero each time he pleases you, he will love pleasing you and will listen moreBest gifts for your loved ones

DON'T BOY HIM
Don't talk down at him. He should never feel disrespected by the woman he has committed to. He hates it when you baby-sit him

DON'T TALK AT HIM
Talk with him. Give him time to speak, don't run your mouth. It should be a two way conversation, not an order

TALK AFTER MAKING LOVE
You can choose to talk about the issue after making love. At that time, both of you are feeling most in love. Talk intimately and peacefully about the issue, he is so receptive to all you say at that timeBest gifts for your loved ones

TAKE HIM ON A DATE
Or you can take him to a place outside home where he will be more conscious of his demeanour in public. An outside setting also breaks the monotony of home. Talk about the issue over a date

DON'T MAKE HIM FEEL UNEASY
Men get unsettled by the words 'We need to talk'. Ease off the pressure by not putting him on the hot seat

DON'T PUSH HIM
Don't pressure him to conclude the issue. If he needs time to think through what you have talked with him about, give him time. Sometimes a man needs to arrange his thoughts in his "me" time. You have had ample time to think about the issue, probably more time than him

BE FLEXIBLE
Perhaps after you talk, he might not see things your way or the outcome may not be as you anticipated. Don't have a fixed mind, you two have to come to a joint agreement. Some times also you will need to exercise patience

Important things to remember when you are married or in a serious relationship...✍🏽

Don’t ever assume your partner feels loved.

Date nights are a must.
Doesn’t matter if you go out, or stay in.

Talking openly about what you want to change in your relationship is important.

Learn each others love language. Best gifts for your loved ones
We all don’t perceive love the same way.

Go to bed mad sometimes.
Don’t force a resolution.
Sleeping on it does help.

When you get into a fight, don’t just say “I’m sorry”. Say what you are sorry for, and how you will react differently next time.

It will get boring sometimes. Best gifts for your loved ones
Every couple goes through the “boring” stage.
It’s normal.
It will fade.
This is the time in your relationship you will have to put the most effort in.

Some days you will have to pull more weight than your partner, and vice versa.

It’s important to check in on each other’s mental health.

It’s okay to go to couples counselling.
It helps.
It doesn’t mean you two are ending, or failing.

Talk about money.
Talk about your financial goals.
Let your partner know what you expect from them, and vice versa.

Turn off the phones an hour before bedtime and just talk to each other.

Ask questions like

“What do you need to see more of from me?”
“How can we understand each other better?”

And most importantly, be kind to each other.

Love each other. Best gifts for your loved ones

Fight for each other.

Remember, love is never easy, and it’s one hell of a ride.

But damn, is it ever beautiful, and worth it..

BREAKING:
PETER OBI IS YOUR NEXT PRESIDENT

Peter Obi has officially submitted his application to the new coalition as a one term President. That one term is enough to change Nigeria.

I once stated it in the first week of June that Mr. Peter Obi will go for one term and the North trust him enough to keep to his word.

Peter Obi is your next president. You can take it to the bank.

The entire South South and South East governors and lawmakers from these regions that ran to APC last month will work for the emergence of Peter Obi as president because he is from the South and they are now at peace because the North has kept to the zoning agreement.

Atiku Abubakar made this huge sacrifice. He is not running for the presidency come 2027 and you can take it to the bank.

Peter Obi is the best and only candidate that will easily defeat Tinubu with the Northern support from Atiku Abubakar, Nasir El-Rufai , Sen David Mark , Sule Lamido , The AREWA Elders.

Ahmed Datti will have to make Obi sacrifice him for Atiku and Buhari to hand pick Obi's VP. He will either be Obi's Minister of Justice and Attorney General or Chief of Staff

ADC leadership steps down for David Mark, Aregbesola to lead 2027 coalition party

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is undergoing a significant leadership change, with its founding National Chairman, Ralph Nwosu, announcing that party leaders have voluntarily resigned to pave the way for a new direction.

This move is aimed at repositioning the party ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Nwosu made this disclosure on Wednesday at the unveiling of the ADC as the platform for a new opposition coalition. The event took place at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja.

Former Senate President David Mark has been announced as the interim National Chairman of the ADC-backed coalition while former Osun Governor Rauf Aregbesola will serve as its interim National Secretary.

Nwosu stated: “We all decided to resign so that Mark, Aregbesola and others can lead us to the Villa.

“We also approved Mark as National Chairman and Aregbesola as the National Secretary of the party. When you look at the two of them and their commitment to this country, you’ll see that this is a new beginning. They will reposition the party and Nigeria.”

I REJECTED ₦91 million BRIBE FROM MIKEL OBI AGENT FOR OLYMPIC GAMES SLOT - SAMSON SIASIA

Samson Siasia's disagreement with Mikel Obi just got m3ssier

Former Nigeria U23 coach Samson Siasia has revealed that he rejected a €50,000 (approximately ₦91 million based on current exchange rates) brib3 offer from John Obi Mikel's agent to include the midfielder in the squad for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, claiming the former Chelsea star refused to participate in the qualifiers.

Siasia to Elegbete TV Sports: "Mikel's agent called that Mikel cannot come and he wasn't a starter at Chelsea then, he was on the bench.

"I told him we only had one game against Ghana to play – please come and help us.

"I said if he doesn't come, he won’t go anywhere. But Mikel refused to come, saying he was playing in Chelsea.

"Then we went to Ghana and played a draw. They brought Asamoah Gyan, they needed that win.

"Nothing happened, we played very well, at the end of the day 0-0, we qualified.

"Going to the Olympics, Mikel wants to come and play. His agent said he would give me €50,000 so Mikel should play.

"I said it’s not about €50,000. He didn’t play the qualifiers, so I will take out someone that qualified us and bring you in? It won’t happen. That’s why Mikel didn’t go."

Nigeria went on to win silver at the Beijing Games, with Siasia leading a squad that impressed en route to the final, where they narrowly lost to Lionel Messi's Argentina.

Siasia vs Mikel , where is this leading them to ?

Mama Toto and the House Help from Instagram

One sunny afternoon in Dar es Salaam, Mama Toto was cleaning the house like a soldier at var. She was tired, sweating, and mumbling to herself, Haiya! I need a house girl or I’ll run away to the village!

Later that evening, her husband, Mzee Kito, came home smiling like he had just won the lottery.

Mama Toto, he shouted. Since you’ve been crying about needing a house help, guess what? I found one

Mama Toto rushed out, wiping her hands on her kitenge, ready to hug the new helper. But the moment she saw her everything changed.

The house help was a curvy lady in a tight yellow dress, high heels, full makeup, and carrying a suitcase that looked more expensive than Mama Toto’s entire kitchen.

Eeeeeh, Mama Toto screamed. Kito, are you mad? That’s not a house help, that’s an Instagram model

B-but… she said she can clean and cook, Mzee Kito stammered, already sweating like a goat at Eid.

Rudi na yeye. RUDI, Mama Toto shouted, chasing them with a slipper. I’ll wash, I’ll cook, I’ll even dig the garden, That one is not a maid that one is competition, PAP

As Mzee Kito ran back to the gate with the house help dragging her suitcase in confusion, the neighbors peeked over the fence laughing, and Mama Toto stood proudly at the door like a lioness protecting her territory.

Be careful when your husband offers to "help with house chores. You might end up with more drama than a Swahili telenovela

You saw him in the club and rushed to meet him." — Dee One

Meet Jean-Pierre Adams, The Footballer Who Slept For 39 Years And Died At 73

In 1982, promising footballer Jean-Pierre Adams was sidelined by a knee injury during a match. What was expected to be a routine surgery to repair the damage turned into a decades-long tragedy that shook the sporting world.

The operation, meant to fix his knee, went horribly wrong when a critical error was made.

The anaesthetic team administered the wrong dosage of anaesthesia, and instead of waking up after surgery, Adams never regained consciousness. He slipped into a coma—a state of unending sleep from which he would never return.

Adams, only 34 years old at the time, remained in that coma for 39 years.

His wife, Bernadette Adams, stood by him through it all.

She refused to give up hope or allow life support to be removed, saying she believed her husband would one day wake up.

Throughout the decades, Bernadette cared for him at home in France, maintaining his dignity and holding onto love in the face of a silent existence. Despite her efforts and the family's hope, Jean-Pierre Adams passed away in 2021 at the age of 73.

His story is remembered as one of hear,tbreaking loyalty, a medical error that changed a life forever, and the enduring strength of a wife who never stopped believing.

Do you think this was a medical error or a calculated mûrdèr of a talented bläck footballer?
