By Blessing Hammed

Good communication is very important in marriage. Some wives complain that their husband spend very little time conversing with them. That is sad. True, due to busy times and economic situation husbands work long hours outside the home and this may result in less time spent communicating with their spouse.

But a married couple should reserve time for each other. Otherwise, they may become independent of each other. It could lead to serious problem if they are compelled to seek sympathetic companionship outside the marriage.

Female Presidential Candidate for 2015, Professor Remi Sonaiya Sure Can Rap!

Posted in: , ,

Prof. Comfort Remi Sonaiya is the only woman contesting for the presidency in the forthcoming Nigerian elections in February 2015. Unfortunately, not many of us have heard of her, her running mate, Saidu Bobboi or her party, Kowa.

I say unfortunately, not because she's a woman like me, but because watching this video of her I found on Youtube, I get her, and she feels so much more capable, approachable and qualified than both Goodluck and GMB. The prof is an intellectual and in 2008, she was named an International Ambassador Scientist of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation.

Sonaiya became the National Public Relations Officer of KOWA Party soon after she resigned as Professor of Foreign Languages at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ife. In the video, is a speech made at the 2013 TedexIfe where she speaks the language of the youth which included singing and rapping. Check on it!

But while Fallon was under the nervous impression it was a potential work meeting, Nicole Kidman, explained that she had liked him and had thought he didn't like her back.

But that's all in the past now, with both of them married and with kids. Still maked for an funny anecdote. Watch below...

TLC's My Husband's Not Gay Talks To Women Who Marry Men Attracted To Men

Posted in: , ,

The TLC channel in the US is planning to air a special titled “My Husband’s Not Gay,” this coming weekend. The one-hour show will be about Mormon couples in Salt Lake City where the male spouse is open about also being attracted to men. But they love their wives and are prepared to do all they can to make their marriage, happy, faithful and longlasting.

In Nigeria, these things are not so clear cut. A lot of us are Christians, we believe that homosexuality is a sin. In most local cultures, it is also taboo, while marriage and child-bearing is esteemed. One issue many people could not understand with Kenny Brandmuse's coming out post was the fact that his now ex-wife knew he was attracted to men when she agreed to go along with the wedding.

He wrote that she thought it was a childhood obsession that he would keep in the past. Unfortunately he found other men he preferred to his wife and chose to let her go than cheat on her.
