I’m a Delta woman and I grew up and have lived my life in Delta. I cannot ever follow you people to fool and do that 50/50 conversation. It’s on twitter that I saw “men pay bills and women take care of home”.That was not my reality so I nor Dey follow una talk anything.

Zikoko is here with another realistic Nigerian relationship. The type you guys like to pretend doesn’t exist, interesting because a few days ago oomf was talking about why Nigerian parents don’t protect their daughters from grooming. I said because they don’t see a problem.

As a general rule when I’m house hunting, I refuse to stay in a compound or neighborhood with yahoo boys. You will regret your life because they’re irritants.
My cousin's yahoo boys neighbours are killing me with their non-stop music playing. There are new-born twins downstairs but these fuckers don't care, causing these children to be wailing constantly. As in, their gens go off and they switch to MP players. Jesus Christ.

It’s why when talk about grooming, a layer we don’t fully explore is that parents are always fully in support. They’ll rather you be 18 and married than be 30 and unmarried.
Obinna* (31) and Emem* (20) have been together for over a year. On this week’s Love Life, they talk about navigating their age gap, expecting a baby so early in their relationship and how marriage talks haven’t stopped the accusations that he groomed.

When you finish this one we will talk about how young girls in lower income households are groomed for sex work at early ages.
For one of them to beat me up because I politely asked him to stop flirting with my 14-year-old sister? It wasn't funny! And I was scared that if he could do that while I was right there what would he do in my absence???!.

I hope for all our sakes that many of you do not have kids because when I say that Nigerians do not see children as their own individual persons, una go say I Dey lie but look at the reactions.
The moment I clocked that I’ll have to stay in my parents house after graduation I knew I had to set clear boundaries. Anything I can’t tolerate for the next 5 years, I no dey start am now. And one of those very few boundaries is nobody should call me in the morning, leave me. 1.

You are assuming that Nigerian parents see a problem with grooming. This is a society that is built on heavy rape and pedophilic culture across regions.
I can’t emphasize this enough but Nigerian parents need to let their daughters be aware of the dangers of grooming and how to spot the signs. We cannot leave girls clueless on how much of a threat these moids are to them.

I want us to try and pay attention to the younger girls around us. I’m talking 14-20. While we worry about them being groomed by much older men, we are overlooking that there’s also abuse from boys their age range. It’s so crazy and once you start to see it, you can’t under it.

Lack of information especially in already poorer households and communities mean that the divide between the poor and the rich will continue to widen.
Outstanding. But, the missing context is that her father is a Regional Manager for ACCA in Nigeria. Having informed parents or guardians can make a significant difference. Now, she is being prepared for direct entry into uni, giving her a solid advantage over her peers.

August is too far. On the TL in the last 24 hours, there’s a case of a young girl being ganged raped in Bayelsa. Even one woman who has to go through abuse is one woman too much and yet birds will bird.
There was a time in August that we had femicide news everyday for two weeks straight but “It is women’s world and women love to be seen as victims”. A foolish bird.

Because a man’s idea of submission is what submission actually is and not all those “you control by submitting” clownery that babes do.
Your idea of submission is not a man's idea of submission. To him, you are property. I no dey wan talk plenty, una dey behave like eba but you see that human rights, you must collect it by force.

Many babes who grew up in deep poverty will engage in one form of sex work or the other at different points in their lives and sometimes it’s before 18. Yes their parents know and sometimes push them into it. There’s a conversation to be had but it had to be an honest one.

The worst part is you’ll have one person in one corner telling you that you’re not working hard enough that’s why you can’t afford the things you need. Meanwhile said person go be trust fund kid.
Being poor actually sucks because what do you mean you’ve wanted a phone since 2022 and you’re just getting it now when there are people that can afford to change their phone is less than an hour. Poverty is depressing.

This. There’s not a single thing that will happen if you say you don’t want certain things. People don’t want to insist don what they want because “na culture”.
There’s nothing going on at YOUR wedding that you can’t stop. My cousin insisted that her wedding wouldn’t be held at her father’s house because he did nothing for her. Chose the uncle who helped her through school. Told her dad not to speak at the wedding. And nobody died.

Many of them don’t realize they truly don’t want kids into they have said kids. So they pour their frustrations on those kids for existing.
I was thinking to my self the other day from observing a parent and their child at a bus stop: Why are Nigerian parents always so angry at their children?. There's absolutely no patience with their kids.

I think that Suicide should be legal, I think that while it's still death and there's no glamour, it shouldn't be criminalized either. We're born into this world and there's no manual to surviving and navigating it. I think people can drop out of living anytime they want.

After Lagos and Abuja, Delta is the next expensive state and when you strip the layers it’s insane because the only things fueling the state is yahoo, Keke and POS yet “lekki standard 2 bedroom for 3.5million”.You will think it’s skit.
Yahoo boys are pricing out regular folk on rent across this country and we are not talking about it enough. A university lecturer cannot afford a 2 bedroom flat in Abraka, he has to live in a neighbouring town.

Even the fraud that Nigerian males are acting like they had no choice but to learn, has anyone wondered why girls are not found in Hustle kingdoms (HK) like boys? Because they will rape you and make you the property of the Oga. Instead of learning the work like the boys, you will.
