Watching that babe go from eating eba on this app to one of the biggest entrepreneurs is really something.

Suddenly nobody understands or have ever used a figure of speech. Interesting scenes
Just to be clear, a death sentence means that the person sentenced will (definitely) die.

There are people on my Timeline with UK Global Talent Visas and Canada PRs whose entire spiel this election season is to tell you they don't rate Peter Obi. They offer no alternatives and say they are not affiliated with the APC. I hope you know they are wicked and callous.

Once again imprecise language is how most of the world communicates. Let’s please give people some grace.

I like how you’re doing the exact thing you’re criticizing.
One insight I’ve reached is that many women act as though language lacks weight, a choice made deliberately to obscure clarity. Yes, men cannot give birth, yet calling it a death sentence is an exaggeration that unfortunately undermines the point you aim to convey.

I like how you present your thoughts
I think sometimes “performative” is what ppl call public commitments they don't want to take seriously. Once you reduce someone's principles to status-seeking, you can dismiss their motives w/o engaging w/ what they're saying. Cynicism is a way of avoiding moral scrutiny yourself

I don’t think we give gospel music in Nigeria enough credit

We are not so different from our parents. Are we?
I will usually not get involved in family shenanigans, but if my brother builds a house and passes away, no mortal born of a woman will stop him from being laid in state in his own abode. I repeat, NO MORTAL!

Can’t believe this burial at home vs at a cemetery conversation is real.

Isn’t the man in question estranged from his family? Isn’t he of a different religion even from his family? Please o. A mark of respect for one’s spouse, is that you respect their malice. If they did not forgive them in life they don’t intend to do so on death.
The post is one of the reasons why there is always family feud after a man dies. We must learn to understand that a man doesn’t belong to the wife and kids only, he also belongs to his “extended” family especially if his parents are still alive (permit me to use the term “extended”). So, no one party can actually choose to do whatever they like with the man or his property especially when the man dies intestate. Everyone must come together and reach several compromise. It is belief like this that fuels the family fued that exists after demise of a spouse. Sometimes, it is not a case of people hating the widow but a case of people not wanting to accept that other people have rights to the deceased and his properties too. In some countries like Singapore, if a man dies intestate and he has parents, the intestate succession act mandates that the wealth is shared equally between the spouse and parents. Wives should learn to accommodate the husband’s family in decisions around the deceased and the husband’s family should also learn to accommodate and respect the wife in such scenarios too @TheYemiKing

The resentment will kill you. Please pity yourself
you can "speedrun inner work" by going straight to the final boss and forgiving your parents

Pentecostal Christians and Motivational speakers are always looking for how to bypass process. My love you will meet that process in front after fooling yourself. Don’t fool yourself.

I want to make the argument sometimes that the point of religion is not the existence of God. Even if God does not exist, the (average) human mind would build religion around other ideas. That’s why I think the arguments for God is moot.

By this I mean that if we found empirical epistemological evidence of God’s existence today a lot of atheists would not be interested. Conversely I don’t know one religious person that would be less religious if you proved that God does not exist.

“Love is not a meritocracy “
I have no advice on how to date or find your soul mate. I have been in love with my husband since I was twenty-one years old. I didn't engineer that. I didn't go on thousands of dates or study the right tactics to attract him to me. There was just a voice inside me that hit me as hard as a fist: It said, I don't care if you don't understand how to love properly. You are going to learn how to love him, or you're going to hate yourself for the rest of your life.

This is not the issue in contention sha. It’s about if your estranged family, who you do not involve in your life in anyway can have a say in your death. That’s the whole issue. All this talk about house and land is a distraction.
