That phrase, ’till death do us part’ or ‘for better for worse’ isn’t for this generation – True life story of a Nigerian bus driver
I am a commercial driver in the city of Lagos. I’m married with three children. I love my wife and children and make sure they’re not denied the good things of life I can afford. I do well financially because the bus I’m driving is mine and don’t account for anyone.
Things were going on well, we’ll have issues and settle. I believe my wife loves me as much as I love her. I did not hold back from showing her that I love her. Little did I know she’d show me the true meaning of ‘terrible.’
My problem started when I had an accident that almost claimed my life, my legs were affected badly and I stayed months at LUTH. My wife stayed with me giving me care but pouring her frustration on me. I didn’t bother as I understood her reasons. She was angry money wasn’t coming in and I was using my savings to pay for hospital bills. My family was giving the little they have and coming to see us regularly at the hospital. Sometimes, they stay with me while my wife goes back to the children.
The accident almost incapacitated me because it affected my wife’s behavior towards me. She stopped seeing the future with me. On one occasion, she lashed at me and the nurses scolded her. I was bearing her ill treatments believing she’ll change or even understand I didn’t bring this predicament to myself and that anybody can be involved in an accident. Some people’s situations change even without an accident.
Several times, I’ve pleaded with her while in the hospital bed to bear with me and put up with this situation, that once I’m out, healthy and strong, things will be fine. But that didn’t yield any change in her attitude towards me. I resorted to bearing her and pretending those things weren’t happening.
On several occasions, she had told me that this is not what she will do all her life but I didn’t read meaning to that. I took it as mere words coming from someone who is angry. Sometimes, she will come stay with me at the hospital other days I won’t see her, I will call her on phone but to no avail. This kept happening and I stopped complaining since other caregivers whose loved ones are in same ward with me were helping me.
One morning, my wife brought my three kids to the hospital, I was happy believing it was a visit to see their father not knowing my wife brought them because she’s leaving me. In her exact words, she said, I’m tired of this thing, I am leaving. See your children.’ Before I could understand what she said, she had left. I was confused, I couldn’t talk, I felt my life was finished. How do I take care of these children while being confined in a hospital bed.
I called my family to inform them of the new development. They tried to reach her and her family members but it was futile.
My family members took my children.
When I got better a little, I begged to be discharged because I have exhausted all I had saved. I brought my two sons back to stay with me because I’d be needing help to stand and move around while I allow the eldest one my daughter to stay with my brother.
I’m looking forward to start something small in front of my house if I see money to help me cater for the two children with me. Since my wife left me, it hasn’t been easy but I believe I will be up on my feet one day and my children won’t forget my little efforts towards them.
If you ask me if I had seen the other side of life, do you know my reply? I have seen the extreme side of life!

His first coming was like a lamb…
He was slaughtered.
So his 2nd coming is as a Lion – he will slaughter them -Charles Awuzie Analysis on Donald Trump
While I may have fundamental differences with Donald Trump as a person, but I am open minded to learn from his intentionality.
The problem I have with humans is bias – if they love Kamala then everything about Trump must be evil. And if they love Trump, anyone who disagrees with him is antichrist. The same applies to those who love Tinubu but think Obi is a scam and those who love Obi but sees nothing good in Tinubu – just low vibration, low frequency human consciousness – symptom of an ‘Unstretched’ Mind.
There are very few humans who are conscious of their own bias and are genuinely making efforts to KEEP AN OPEN MIND. These ones have STRETCHED their minds.
I have learnt so much from President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his political moves.
I have learnt also from President Donald Trump.
I have learnt from the Holy Koran just as I have learned from the Holy Bible.
And That’s how I maintain a constant flow of inspiration – by keeping an open mind.
Trump’s intentional use of Crypto, Religion and Nationalism is worth studying.
Crypto is the modern financial culture – it’s a cult.
Religion is an ancient universal culture – it’s a cult.
Nationalism excludes people who are not from your nation while placing your nation first – it’s a cult.
This cult strategy wins every time if well executed.
If you want to win an election in your country, align with the ideals of the majority. If they want to deport all immigrants, champion it even if your wife and biggest donors are both immigrants.
Politics is a mind game. If you don’t understand this, you are still a baby. The difference between a smiling Trump and a frowning Trump is Mind Game. Your mind will effortlessly liken him to the lamb and Lion branding of Jesus.
Good morning!

Ladies beware of this man. He tricked me that he’ll divorce his wife & marry me not knowing they’re all fat lies!
I met this guy in 2022. I thought he was genuine & i fell for his looks not knowing that he is Lucifer’s twin brother who dresses in suit & tie. We dated for 3yrs but, he never took me to his house. He claims to be married with 2 kids but unhappy & also convinced me that he was no longer interested in his wife, promising to divorce her to be with me
He claims his parents pressurized him to marry the girl & after 4 yrs he’s fed up with the marriage & wants a divorce because he’s not happy in the marriage. I took him for his word after he successfully convincing me I’m the one that he truly loves & wanted to be with, promising to marry me as soon as the divorce proceedings with his wife was over, i believed him. During this time, I became pregnant with his child, & we now have a one-year-old daughter.
However, I’ve since discovered that he never initiated any divorce proceedings. Instead, he’s been using me emotionally & financially. instead of him giving me money like a man will normally do for the woman he claims to love, he has been collecting money from me. His latest excuse is that he doesn’t want to marry a woman with children from previous relationships. Gerald, so after 2 yrs you just realized that I’m a baby mama of 2 kids from different relationships!!? After using me all this time. I swrr Gerald, my God will surely Ponizh you!!

UNZA student jailed three years for phone thefts
UNIVERSITY of Zambia student’s quest to become a doctor has been temporarily halted after he was together with his ‘business’ partner for stealing phones from six students.
The student, Mike Musonda, 26, and his co-accused Equinox Tembo,24, unemployed, were jailed three years imprisonment with hard labour for stealing six phones valued at more than K14,000.
Musonda and Tembo appeared in court last week charged with six counts of theft, offences committed between August 1 and October 31, 2024.
Between the same dates, the duo stole a samsung galaxy M34 worth K4,500 from Grace Chanda, while in the second count, the accused stole an Iphone 6 worth K2,000 from Beatrice Mutale.
Accusations in the third count are that the accused stole a Huawei Pic Lite with K2,500 from Natasha Nyawa and that in the fourth count, the duo also stole an Itel S23 phone worth K2,500 from Catherine Chipasha.
In count five, the accused stole an Itel KB7 worth K2,600 from Dorcas Moyo and later stole a Techno pop 6 valued at K,1,800, the property of Mishel Siwale, in respect of the last count.
The both admitted the charges before Lusaka magistrate Amy Masoja-Chilangwa and told the court they had no claim to right to the phones.
Evidence is that during the material times, the first complaint, Ms Chanda, an UNZA student, was on her way to campus when she met Musonda, who introduced himself as an entrepreneur.
Musonda, who informed Ms Chanda that he was looking for people to ‘work’ with, later introduced her to Tembo, while at UNZA campus.
At the time, Ms Chanda had called her friend Beatrice Mutale informing her about a ‘job’ the two gentlemen were offering.
The accused later told Ms Chanda and Ms Mutale that they needed to capture their details so that they could give them identity cards for the ‘job’.
The accused then got a Samsung and an iPhone phone from the ladies on the pretext that they would get some details from the gadgets.
Musonda left with the phones leaving behind Tembo with the ladies before the latter also excused himself claiming that he wanted to use the toilet before he disappeared.
After realizing that they had been duped, the two ladies rushed to the university main entrance to alert security.
On the way, the duo met Tembo who then fled before the ladies ,security guards and other students pursued him while shouting thief.
After being apprehended, Tembo led security guards to the apprehension of Musonda before the duo was taken to Kalundu Police Post.
When news of the detention of the duo spread through campus, other affected students emerged and reported that their phones were equally stolen in a similar manner.
The affected victims went to Kalundu Police Station and gave their statements and positively identify the accused as the ones who stole their phones, which were not recovered.
In mitigation, Musonda, a medical student, asked for forgiveness because he had learnt a lesson while in remand
I’ve seen how much my friends are in pain because they now know that freedom is important. I’ve lost my sister and I am the first born. If I go for a long time, my family will be in pain” he said.
The convict said his conduct was motivated by joining bad company saying “It’s just that the friends I met made me start doing bad things’,” Musonda said.
The court heard that Musonda is a third year student but never wrote exams.
“So, instead of studying you were duping people” the magistrate said.
On his part, Tembo equally asked for leniency, pledging never to re-offend because “I am not supposed to do bad things. I want to go back to school. I want to rewrite biology”.
“You want to join him(Musonda) after rewriting biology,” the magistrate queried.
The magistrate observed that the convicts were not fully remorseful for stealing students phones, which carry vital information.
She sentenced them to three years imprisonment each.
