@ArcSadam Which family drama are you avoiding, your own immediate family, your brother in law's, or your inlaws. Which is more important to you, a wise woman builds her home, so if it were to be another man entirely, you would have accepted since there will be no family drama?

“I’m a married woman with 3 kids, and I really need honest advice because this situation is getting out of hand. It all started after my last birthday. My husband’s elder brother sent me 100,000. I was surprised, so I called him to ask why. He said it was a birthday gift. I even told him it was too much, but he insisted I should accept it. Out of respect and transparency, I told my husband. He even called his brother to thank him. But that’s where everything changed… Later, my husband’s elder brother called me and warned me never to tell my husband again whenever he sends me money. That alone made me very uncomfortable. Then things got worse. Whenever my husband travels, he starts asking me to meet him in private places. I refused the first time, the second time, even the third time. Then one day, he came to our house and confronted me, angry that I didn’t show up. I stood my ground and told him clearly: I cannot meet you alone anywhere. But instead of stopping, he pushed further, He told me he wants to buy me a new car. He even suggested I should lie to my husband, that I took a loan, sold my old car, and upgraded, without telling him the truth. At this point, I feel disrespected, uncomfortable, and honestly disturbed. I haven’t told my husband yet. but I’m wondering if I should. If you were in my shoes, what would you do? Keep quiet to avoid family drama, or speak up before it gets worse? I really need your advice”.

@EbukaIloabuchi @OloriebiBet If e reach your turn make you tell us.

@OloriebiBet Those sick wey dey for Europe,Asia , America Dey ask for pap before dem die?

Anytime you visit someone in the hospital and they start asking you what time it is or to make pap for them… please, don’t answer them. 🥲💔

SHE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST 'INFECTION'... UNTIL IT BECAME A DEATH SENTENCE. She was 57. She sat across from me, calm… almost too calm. “I’ve just been having some discharge, doctor,” she said. “Sometimes it’s bloody… especially after intercourse. But it comes and goes. Whenever it starts, I take antibiotics… and it stops.” That word again.. antibiotics. Temporary silence for a deeper problem. Something in my spirit tightened. This was a woman who had stopped seeing her menses about 10 years ago. Postmenopausal. Bleeding at this stage is never something to ignore. I asked gently, trying not to alarm her. “Have you ever heard of a Pap smear?” “Yes,” she said. “But I’ve never done it.” “HPV vaccine?” “No… I didn’t think I needed it.” At that moment, I was hoping, praying.. that my suspicion was wrong. But medicine has a way of whispering the truth before it shouts it. 😢 On examination, her cervix told a story her words could not hide. It didn’t look healthy… not even close. We took samples. Sent them for histology. Started preparing our minds for what we feared. Then the result came back. CERVICAL CANCER.. Advanced. We didn’t give up. We fought. We really really fought. She underwent surgery to reduce the tumor burden. She went through chemotherapy. She endured radiotherapy.. far from our facility, in another center. Money was spent. Strength was drained. Hope… flickered. There were days of pain. Days of bleeding. Days she could barely recognize herself. And then… We lost her. 💔 Not because nothing could be done. But because something wasn’t done early enough. Here’s the part that breaks my heart the most: Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers! It is strongly linked to Human papillomavirus (a sexually transmitted virus) that can stay silent in the body for 10–15 years before showing any signs. That means you can feel perfectly fine… while the danger is quietly growing. Let me say this clearly. If you have ever been sexually active, you do not wait for symptoms. You go for a Pap smear. Not because you are sick. But because you want to stay healthy. If detected early, abnormal cells can be treated before they become cancer. And there is more… There is a vaccine. A simple, powerful protection against HPV. You can take it. Your daughter can take it before she is even sexually exposed. One of the greatest gifts you can give your girl child is not just education… It is protection. Because the truth is.. Cervical cancer does not usually come suddenly. It gives warnings. It gives time. But only to those who are looking. Don’t wait for bleeding. Don’t wait for pain. Don’t wait for regret. Go for your screening. Get vaccinated if you are eligible. Because some battles are not meant to be fought in the hospital… They are meant to be prevented long before they begin 😊. ©️The Women's Doc

@eezharhh As a woman I'll take her back and pay her #70,000. Limit her access. Then fire her again

So your man’s younger sister graduates with no job. You own a thriving skincare business, so you bring her in as a sales girl and pay her ₦150k monthly. Three months later, you discover she’s been stealing products to sell on the side. You fire her, and suddenly your husband’s mother is calling you, saying you’re wicked and trying to destroy the family over small cream. Then your husband tells you to just take her back to keep peace in his family. As a woman, what would you do?

@AdewunmiGbeng14 @Shevincible Olugbenga is a French name.

@Shevincible They did not change nationality. Not all Yorubas are Nigerians. Not all English people are from England

That my name is “Obafemi” does not mean I am a Nigerian. Yoruba people that are non-Nigerians bear the name “Obafemi”. You can’t Nigerianize a name that is not exclusive to Nigeria. To avoid confusion and conflict the right caption should be “Everybody is doing the Obafemi strut by a (Yoruba-Nigerian) WWE wrestler. This will enable the world to know that this particular Obafemi you are referring to is from Nigeria. Names like Adebayo are prominent in Togo and Benin republic. Now imagine Adebayo, Arsenal legend! He is a Yoruba but not a Nigerian Yoruba. He is a Togolese-Yoruba. So, Obafemi is a Nigerian-Yoruba.

@iamsly69 @ugo_mpa @AdewunmiGbeng14 Everybody just comes here with half facts and concludes, just like the story of the blind men touching the different parts of an elephant to determine what it is. Include links of verified facts in post. The Yoruba in Brazil, Togo, or wherever, go and research their origin.

@ugo_mpa @AdewunmiGbeng14 Some part of Togo speak Yoruba

@BukolaOfGod__ @YoungRejoice1 @winifredaustine Yes they do, and don't paint the pastor in bad light. You might have been paying tithe consistently and just lost your job. The pastor called as that is a sign that something is wrong. Anyways E for engagement.

@YoungRejoice1 @winifredaustine So pastors now keep tabs of people that don't pay tithe??

So I didn't pay for my tithe yesterday and this morning my pastor has called me on phone asking me I why I didn't pay for my tithe I told him I don't have money, this man just end the call like that.

@I_am_sunkytech @_DebbieOA Who asked for your tribe.. you did well pointing out all other facts, then added that you are a Yoruba man. What should the northerners who experience steady insecurity do? Are they not under the APC/Tinubu governance too?

@_DebbieOA Local Government autonomy Fuel subsidy removal No more ASUU strike Student loan disbursement Easy passport application Consumer Credit Scheme Exchange rate unification Prices of food stuffs reducing after a super hike Deluxe infrastructures Tax reform I'm a Yoruba man And more.

Wait, let's have an honest conversation. Why exactly are you supporting APC? How did they convince you? What are you seeing that everyone else isn't seeing? Why do you think they deserve a second term?

@SegunShowunmi @mehdirhasan Ah. Otunba, let's call a spade a spade. Ah. Ah. Ah. As my Igbo brothers will say, Tufiakwa. E je ki a beru olorun.

Hostility Is Not Journalism. Mehdi Hassan Take Note. There is a clear difference between tough journalism and outright hostility. One serves the public interest. The other serves the ego of the interviewer. Unfortunately, the recent exchange between @mehdirhasan and presidential spokesperson @BwalaDaniel fell squarely into the latter category. What viewers witnessed was not a serious interview. It was an attempted public ambush. From the outset, the tone was aggressively confrontational. Questions were framed less as inquiries into governance and more as prosecutorial traps. Responses were repeatedly interrupted before they could develop. Clarifications were brushed aside. The atmosphere was unmistakable: this was not a conversation designed to inform viewers but a spectacle designed to embarrass the guest. Serious journalism does not operate this way. The craft of interviewing demands discipline. It requires the ability to ask difficult questions while still allowing the guest to articulate answers. It requires intellectual confidence strong enough to permit disagreement without descending into open hostility. Above all, it requires a commitment to substance over theatrics. That commitment was glaringly absent. Nigeria is currently grappling with a range of serious national challenges economic restructuring, security threats, governance reforms, and the complex work of stabilizing a large and dynamic democracy. A responsible interviewer would have used the opportunity to interrogate the administration’s policies on these matters: What strategies are being deployed? What reforms are underway? What outcomes should citizens expect? Instead, viewers were treated to an exercise in selective outrage and repetitive interruption. Even more troubling was the insinuation that political realignment is somehow illegitimate. Democratic politics is built on shifting alliances. Individuals and movements evolve. Former opponents become partners when national circumstances demand cooperation. This is neither shocking nor dishonorable; it is one of the defining characteristics of democratic political life. History provides countless examples. Leaders across the world have entered alliances with former adversaries when the demands of governance required it. To pretend otherwise is either intellectual dishonesty or a deliberate attempt to create sensationalism where none exists. But the deeper problem in the interview was tone. A journalist who openly ridicules or repeatedly attempts to humiliate a guest crosses an important professional boundary. The role of the interviewer is to hold power accountable not to behave like a courtroom prosecutor seeking a viral “gotcha” moment. When the pursuit of humiliation replaces the pursuit of insight, journalism loses its credibility. Audiences deserve better than that. They deserve interviews that illuminate policy, probe governance, and help citizens understand how leaders intend to confront the pressing challenges of the day. What they do not need is a theatrical performance in which hostility is mistaken for intellectual rigor. Respectful engagement does not weaken journalism; it strengthens it. Firm questioning does not require contempt. Professionalism does not require aggression. If global media wishes to retain its claim to moral authority as a watchdog of democracy, it must remember a basic principle: the goal of journalism is to inform the public, not to stage spectacles at the expense of civility and substance. The interview in question did neither. It was not a demonstration of fearless journalism. It was a demonstration of how easily the craft can slide into something far less admirable when provocation becomes the objective and professionalism is abandoned.

@kenkenlewu The story no clear,. For it sis in law to have 8years left its either she is close to 65 or she has served 27 years in civil service and you just completed NYSC, the age gap must be wide, or your bro married an older woman.. abeg my head dey pain me

I stopped talking to my only brother because he gave the civil service job slot to his wife instead of me. She has just 8 years left before retirement, while I finished NYSC 2 years ago and still have 30+ years ahead in the service. My brother said they only gave him one slot. Now, my husband is telling me I must either make peace with my brother or forget about him. From my DM.

@ElemSunny Happy wife, happy life. A wise man you are, a wise woman she is too.

Family drama: 🎭🎨 Wife: I don’t like this your beards, it make you look older. 🤔 Duaghter/Son: Dad, the beards look awesome on you. You look younger and handsome. 😊 Wife: (to the kids) What do you know? You just say anything! Me: ???????? Wife: (to daughter) When you marry your husband can wear beards. Daughter: (to mom) He is my dad, at least he can’t divorce me….. Wife: (to daughter) What do you mean? Daughter: 🤐 Wife: (to daughter) You mean your dad can divorce me? Daughter: Did I say that? Now: Someone rushed someone. Me: Beard shaved. Daughter: Didn’t talk to dad for a while day. Mom: 😊 Me: Now, the other room can be peaceful. (The kids didn’t understand). 😊😊😊

@ThaBoyYom If cultist dey, how I wan take know? Anyways, 100% still to the best of my knowledge..

@kenkenlewu Is the permission documented.? Have you heard the husband's side of the story?

One of my cousins is in an open marriage. She recently met another man who is serious about her, wants to build a home together, and is ready to commit. But her husband, who lives in Ghana while she works and resides in Nigeria, is refusing to let go. They already have three children together. Before he traveled, he performed the traditional marriage rites and paid her dowry, but he only visits once a year. Interestingly, he was the one who gave her consent to date other men. Now that she has found someone who truly wants a proper family with her, the open marriage husband vehemently refuses to divorce her and insists he won’t return the bride price.

@nai_mah_x @uterenaomi You went to your friend's place. What did your friend tell their parents without reaching out to yours.. definitely your parents wouldn't have allowed that. However It's nice to have a place you can escape to.

Ikorodu water Vs Lekki water….. Wetin you notice😭?

@KaroroMitchelle This person just dey chase clout. You no reason all the alternatives when people dey give, na only the ones wey validate/Justify your reasoning na those ones you like. Abegi do wetin make you happy, if your ex marry and d tin pain you, you sef vex go marry yourself.

My boyfriend (ex now) of almost 7 years got married to a certain lady over my birthday weekend 2 weeks ago. I'm hurting so much right now, how he lied to me and betrayed me and I couldn't see past the smoke screen. I'm 34 now and wondering how I'll ever start again. He took the best part of my youth, from October 14th 2017 until May 30th 2024. If he knew that he would not marry me, I ask myself over and over again why did he drag me along all this while? I'm so hurt and broken guys. I know I have to move on and I will, but right I'm hurting so badly. 💔

@MercyEgbai @auwal019 The Man(Pastor) took law into his hands, hence the law should deal with him. The thing that pains me now is fellow church members hoping to get meat from their friendly neighbor who is an Alfa. We should kindly choose our words carefully in order not to spark something bigger..

@auwal019 So it has turned to christain vs Muslim fight? These people are supposed to be from same town and village that had a misunderstanding but now it has turned to religious fight. More reasons I detest anything Muslim in my place, this is something the community elders will resolve.

What transpired between an Alfa and a Pastor at Iseyin Oyo state,Nigeria. On Eidul Adha day which coincides with Sunday 19 , 2024 . The Alfa got back from the praying ground and proceeded to slaughter his ram on a path which he created, he was confronted by his neighbor who is a

@its_heady_again The issue be say, him dey drink water but him no mind him business.. Drink water and mind your business.

A thread of funny and savage replies 😂✨ 1. Nothing is beating Nigerian Twitter 😂😂

@frankedoho The explanation will still fly right over his head..

Calabar is not Igbo. Calabar is not a tribe. Efik is the tribe. Efik is not part of the Igbo. Let me illustrate it for you. It's just like me saying your brain is a part of your head when we all know you are actually a brainless organism.
