One Joe Ibekwe shared a date experience and had this to say about it:

Have you gone out on a date and something out of the ordinary happened that left a lasting memory that made you cherish the person so much?
I went out with a female friend having flown in from a distant district.

Before my arrival, she had booked my hotel, paid for the days I indicated I would stay, stocked the fridge with my favourite berries and juices and beverages.
The remarkable thing that made this memory linger on was the time she took me to a high end African Kitchen where I had the most amazing meal. I brought out the wand of notes to settle the bills afterwards but was told it has been paid for.
A lady paying for a man that is not fatally broke?

It definitely was not African culture where women mostly convert men to mobile ATM and feel rightfully entitled to it.

Lass lass, I wired my projected expenditure which she had prepaid into her account and was pleasantly
surprised to see the credit alert of same in my account the following day.

In her words: having you around me is worth spending on. I hope you enjoyed your stay.
Moral: sense of hospitality is not gender specific. Some women have good hearts.

Have you been so pleasantly surprised?

Please tell your tale.

One Aluga shares a story from an anonymous fan seeking for love and had this to say about it:

Anonymous post.

Pls no insults and no judgements.

I got married to a pastor and we have a son together. Emotional abuse wouldn't let me stay.
Well I still stayed on cos he had BP issues so I refused to leave. We built our house together and lived there.

He filed a divorce matter in court and we were going to court together from our house. After a year of living in malice in same house, I knew there was no need
hanging on again... I moved out and moved on. The rest is story.

Why am I writing this? I want to love and be loved. I want to get married. Marriage is sweet with the right person. I haven't given up on that.

My wife has the habit of always asking me "How did it go?" each time I came back from court.
I had told her never to bother herself asking me such questions because she may not understand my response but she was adamant.
So today, when she asked me as usual, "Darling how did it go?"

This was my response:

"Well, I thank God. Just that the plaintiff/applicant appeared in proxy which I vehemently objected.
My grounds of objections as enunciated in the locus classicus
case of Opeyemi vs. Intercontinental Bank of Nig. was opposed by the applicant's counsel who maintained that same was distinguishable.
In the heat of our argument, I averted the mind of the Court to a plethora of judicial precedents and at the end I was able to sway the mind

WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY

Today's story is a true life story of a Great Nigerian: Aare Afe Emmanuel Babalola: OFR, CON, SAN, LL.D, D.LL, D.Litt, FCI.Arb, FNIALS. A man who was determined to succeed against all odds.

He was born about 90 years ago.
Because his parents were illiterates, he doesn't know the exact year, month or date he was born. He lived on the farm with his parents in a mud house, covered with thatch roof, where they used to sleep on banana leaves at night which they usually
change after about 2 or 3 days, but he enjoyed it and indeed, he thought it was the best thing in life.

"We didn't bother about clothes. I was a young boy, I didn't wear clothes, of course, there were no shoes at that time."

"I thought and I prayed then, that one

Commercial enterprises are also severing ties with the President Trump, including the PGA which has stripped Trump of the 2022 PGA championship. At least two universities haverevoked honorary degrees awarded to Trump, and
NFL coach Bill Belichick refused the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Many urge private sanctions for Cruz and Hawley and some of those who have worked in the Trump administration.

Also, @Harvard is alleged to have removed congresswoman Elise Stefanik from an advisory
committee for her unfounded public assertions about voter fraud. And such actions may just be the beginning.

It is getting messier.

It is the contention of Democrats, that that on January 6, rioters, alleged to be Trumplicans, stormed Capitol Hill, many of them armed. Their acts once inside ranged from the violent (beating a police officer to death with a fire extinguisher, assaulting police officers,hunting
specific Congresspeople to enact violence, attacking members of the media documenting the event) to the profane (smearing feces throughout the Capitol, replacing the American flag with a Trump flag, carrying a Confederate flag, hanging nooses outside the Capitol, destroying
the tribute to Rep. John Lewis, stealing Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s lectern), captured their misdeeds on selfies and documented the riot on social media suggesting a deep belief in their collective impunity.

Could this be true?
