POLYGAMY

Isn't it funny how society differentiates between monogamy and polygamy and still accepts polygamy?
Children from polygamous homes are looked down on yet society does not stop or restrain a man from marrying a second wife. Such ceremonies are even celebrated with a lot of the man's family members and friends in attendance.

But why is polygamy still practiced in our society and why are men bringing in strangers to share in the commonwealth of their homes?
We claim that men love sex but I see it that maybe a man that indulges in polygamy lacks understanding:

Where was the second woman when you were struggling and who supported you and cheered you on to victory?

Now that things have gotten better, you want another woman to reap where she didn't sow.
Why would you put your children in that situation, to see their father living with another woman in their house?

Do you know the psychological effect it has on those children or the shame they have to live with especially for growing children?

Is that love for sex worth sacrificing your entire family?

Another school of thought has it that some women use jazz on men they perceive as being rich in order to get them to marry them because of the money of course. That is why marriage is more spiritual than physical. Every wife that loves her husband is therefore called to be a praying wife.

THE GAINS AND LOSSES OF THE ABSENCE OF MR PRESIDENT: BY UWAKWE ROLAND.

President Muhammadu Buhari has been absent from duty since the last few months on a purported medical checkup in London. Good a thing he legally transferred power to the Vice President who is now the acting President, this is unlike the imbroglio that played out during Yar’adua’s time when the National Assembly had to invoke the doctrine of necessity so as to effectively transfer power to then Vice President Goodluck Jonathan. The problem is that even as an acting President, Yemi Osinbanjo has limited powers to fully assume responsibility as the commander in chief, this is because most of the big government functionaries may still owe their loyalty to Mr President, couple with this, Buhari appointed people of his like minds who may not comfortably work with the acting President that will want to bring his knowledge of law and practice into governance. Hence the long absence of Mr President may eventually result to a slow down of democratic dividends. The above ...

GETTING MARRIED AND BEING SUCCESSFUL AFTER 30

Many people see the big 3.0 as a landmark age. To them at 30 you should have accomplished all your goals, gotten married and had a few kids. This view although popular is sometimes unhealthy , because real success and achievements take time. Not everyone who is unmarried at 30 will marry late or unaccomplished at 30 is a failure. For short term goals and minimal achievements, 30 is fine. I even read about someone bragging on how she had a masters degree and was married with two kids at 30. The question no one asked her was 'what had she done with the masters degree and how her children were faring academically? ' It's not enough to get married and have kids before 30 or even finish a masters degree? Is she fulfilled as a person? Had she discovered purpose and was she on her way to fulfilling it? You see we all want to brag when it seems as if we better than the next person. Alas! Many of us are ignorant. Many Nigerian billionaires became billionaires only after 30, many ...
