Hello Ma, My name is mrs Gabriel. I am forty three years old . I got married at the age of twenty four , and I married for only twelve years before I lost my husband in a motor accident. Being a young widow was not easy for me. My husband was a trailer driver and I was a complete house wife. I did not know where to start. I was living from hand to mouth to bring up our four children . The eldest of my children was eight years when their father died while the last born was just a year and nine moths then. Another problem that I had then was that men ,married men were all pestering me , struggling to be the one in my life. But God helped me to resist all their planks. Then one day ,a man who also lost his wife in my village approached me for marriage. I found out that it was becoming difficult for me to cope with the training of my children, and also to stop those married men from disturbing me. Giving every thing a second thought, I agreed to marry this widower. He promised to take care of my four little children . His own children were also four but they are all older than my children . We got wedded again in the church. He was pampering me. I took in for my second husband , and exactly towards the seventh month of my pregnancy, my second husband told me to send my four children to my people that he do not want to see them again in his house. I pleaded with him but he refused. Then I got a maid and I rented one room across the road where I put my children and the maid. I started a business when I got married to this my second husband. I was able to use the proceeds from it to take care of my children. I thought the matter will be over as I had rented a room for my children, but it was not. Each time I buy food items and other things to give my children, this man will be angry with me. After the birth of my child for him, this man told me to choose between him and my children. I did not waste time to choose my children and that was how the marriage ended. I can not watch my children from my first marriage suffer simply because of another marriage. I advice widows to think about their children from their late husband before entering into a new marriage. Any man who is not ready to marry them together with their children is not worthy. My experience is true and real. Learn from my experience . Thank you. Mrs Gabriel

SHE FLOGGED HER SON AND THEY TOOK HIM AWAY FROM HER.
When we hear some stories, we will think that they are just made up stories but they are real. Each time I travel abroad, I get irritated about the way some parents handle their children, especially when their children misbehaves. The highest punishment these children will get is Time out, or go to Naugthy corner or the worst, be told off.but as for beating or flogging them , no ,it is out of the way. It is not the same with our African culture. One day I was in the midst of some people discussing about the way children in foreign countries are not being flogged when they err as we do in Africa. A woman from amongst us shouted and said that no body should ever try it in this country. She said she is a living witness to what happend to her best friend. Her friend flogged her son because her son of ten years left their house without permission and returned very late . Her son went to his school the next day and told his friends how the mother flogged him. When he showed them his back and his classmates saw the scares at his back, they reported the matter to their teacher who reported the matter to the authority . As her friend came after school hours to pick her son home, she was refused to take her son home. The state immediately took over the custody of the son. She said that , as she was speaking to us then that her friends son is in a foster home. Her friend is seriously fighting to regain the custody of her son. What an irony of life? They collected her son from her because she flogged him for doing wrong!!!!

HE RAPED AND KILLED HIS OWN DAUGHTER!
HE RAPED AND KILLED HIS OWN DAUGHTER
I accidentally stumbled on a TV programme and a few minutes into the programme, I discovered that I was actually watching a true life crime documentary. A man in America had just killed his only biological daughter for the insurance payout of $10,000.00.
I cannot comprehend why and how a father can kill and rape his 13 year old daughter, his flesh and blood for money. Why will a father think of killing and raping his own daughter? Can somebody give reasons for this?

COULD THIS BE A DREAM?
COULD THIS BE A DREAM?
I wake up every morning thinking that my situation is a dream, but no, it is not.
My name is Joyce, I got married to John 32 years ago. We have 6 daughters and no sons. My husband worked and retired from one of the multinational oil companies in our country.
We were a very happy family and my husband was not bothered about my having only daughters for him. He always told me that daughters are also gifts from God. The only son we had passed away at birth. My husband always told me that it is only in our country that we put emphasis on male and female children. We gave the best education to our daughters. They are all in school.
Early one morning, my husbands’ brother Chike came to our house unannounced , he told my husband to get ready to follow him to the village, that their mum wants to see him. We asked Chike what the visit was for and if it was only my husband that was wanted in the village and Chike affirmed that it was only John my husband that was needed in the village. He then went on to further state that they wanted to relocate my husband to the village because I had tied him down with 6 daughters and no son to inherit his properties and family name. While pondering on what was just said, Chike jumped on me, pulled my hair and started beating me. My husband was there watching us and he did nothing to separate us.
I managed to get Chike off me and i ran to the police station to report the assault. He ran away before the police could arrive.
My husband was paid all his entitlements and we used the money to build a house in the village He also collects his monthly pensions and other benefits from his company’ retired staff association. My husband was a strong man, he was retired, but never tired. Then someone died in his family and we travelled to the village for the burial. After the burial, my husband was seized by his family and they refused him to travel back with me. He cried that I should beg his mum to release him so that we can travel back together, but all my efforts fell on deaf ears, they refused. I returned home alone and reported the matter to my pastor.
At the month end, as we went to collect his monthly pension, we were duly informed that Chike my brother in law was now the next of kin. I then travelled to the village to ask my husband why everything was changed to his brothers’ name. He had already left the village to live with his brother in a city nearer his village. Upon reaching there, his brother wouldn’t let me in to see my husband. He called the police on me and I was refused access to my husband.
The area commander invited us to the police station. My husbands’ brother was ordered to produce him. When My husband saw me, he started crying and still insisted that I plead with his mother to allow him to go back with me. We were advised by the area commander to go home and settle the matter as it was a family matter. The two families deliberated on the matter but my in-laws were insisting that I leave. They seized our property in the village and restrained me from going there. I have written petitions to different organisations in the country, no response. I petitioned the church where Chike is a pastor, yet no response.
A final peace meeting was called and it shocked me and made me accept my fate. At that meeting, my husband looked at me and our children and told us to leave, that he doesn’t know us. I called him by his name “JOHN” and he denied us all and told us to go away. Our children called him ‘daddy’ and he denied knowing them. They now turned to me and told me that as far as they are concerned, they have no father, they are fatherless, that their father is ‘dead’ to them, and that their mother is now a widow.
We have fixed a day to buy our mourning clothes to mourn my husband and the father of my children alive.

CHILD RAPE IN INDIA.
INDIAN CHILD RAPE IS BECOMING MORE ALARMING.
Child rape in India is no longer news to the world. It has been an age long crime and offence in India. Young girls and ladies in India are scared of this evil.
Gang rapes are on the increase all the time. There has been several calls on the Indian Government to address this evil crime of rape .The recent rape of children as young as 2 years old is repulsive and a shocker to the world at large.
Two teenagers aged 16 and 17 years old respectively, recently abducted and raped a 2 and a half year old girl in a nearby park outside her home in Western Delhi. The New Delhi police is already investigating this incident.
CNN reported that another rape of a 5 year old girl took place in Eastern Delhi and another 4 year old was raped in the Capital. The rapists are now in police custody.
How can this government stop this wickedness in their country? A word for the Indian Government please.

WILL YOU STAY OR QUIT A VIOLENT MARRIAGE?
WILL YOU STAY OR REMAIN IN A VIOLENT MARRIAGE EVEN IF IT CLAIMS YOUR LIFE? This is a question in a million questions that needs to be answered.
I conducted a survey to find out if people will still remain in a violent and abusive marriage that may one day send them to an early grave.. Women are always victims of domestic violence. Everyday, women are being beaten, maimed or even killed as a result of small fighting in their homes. A sister of mine was telling me a recent case of a man that shot his wife in one of the western countries. They were only two months in that marriage . Just one little misunderstanding , the husband went inside his bedroom , brought out a gun and killed her.
Men are also victims of domestic abuse and have also lost their lives as a result of violence at home. A woman accidentally killed her husband in one of the African countries. The husband was flogging her with cane in the kitchen where she was cooking ,for preparing late dinner. As she pleaded with him to forgive her and her husband was still hitting it hard on her, she said that she did not know when she hit him with the pestle in her hand. He died instantly.
Ironically, 56% of the people interviewed and surveyed said that they will remain in an abusive and violent marriage. They prefer to remain in the marriage than face the shame of divorce or separation. 44% said that they will leave the marriage alive rather than dead.
A pastor Mrs Eziamaka UBAH from Umudim Nnewi, in a telephone chat , advised that every couple should endeavour to live in peace with each other. She noted that ,there is no perfect man and woman on earth . She further urged couples to love and respect each other. She said that marriage is “give and take”. She advised that a temporary or permanent separation is necessary and should be allowed if their lives are at stake at any stage of the marriage.
Pastor Eziamaka said that couples should involve their families when they experience domestic violence and abuse. Your own contribution is also needed in this matter. It may save someone's life.

SHE SLAPED ME BECAUSE MY SON IMPREGNATED HER DAUGHTER.
My name is Angelina, I am a seamstress and an interior decorator ,I also bake wedding cakes . I have seven sons . My first son is 17 years old and in his final year in secondary school. My husband and I are not too educated, but we are good disciplinarians. I learnt how to read and write because I went to a domestic school before I started my business.
We thought we were bringing up our sons in the way of the Lord , they always go to Catechism classes. We provided the best of everything for our sons. We never knew that our sons were something else outside our home. They were always well behaved at home.
I was in my shop one day when two women came in. I thought they were customers . I welcomed them in. The next thing I could remember was a slap on my face from one of the women. She was about to give me a second slap when I held her hands and people around hurriedly held her. I held myself together not to retaliate and fight back. I have never met her before and I do not know her. She had created a scene already. She was asked by a few of the people who had gathered round what was the matter. She said she wanted “to teach me a lesson” on how to train my sons. She then told me that my 17 year old son got her 16 year old daughter pregnant. Quite a number of the people gathered around told her to blame her daughter and not my son. My son denied the accusation and said he wasn’t responsible for her pregnancy.
If you were in my shoes, what would you have done? Would you fight back ? what will you do to your son? What will you advice me to do? This incident is just two weeks back from today.

HE DUMPED ME FOR A RICH MAN'S DAUGHTER
Hello Ma, My name is Louisa. I am a graduate of Mass communication from one of the federal Universities in my country. While at the University, I had a boy friend who promised to marry me. We got a room outside the school Campus, we started living as a couple without formal marriage. We were also studying the same course then. Every body knew us then in the Campus to the extent that we were given an Award during our social week as the best couple of the year in the Campus. Our parents did not know about all these things then. As we properly made up our minds to become husband and wife, we worked our youth service to be in the same place. We started planning for our wedding immediately after our service. A formal introduction was fixed for us to meet with our different families. Before that, my husband to be attended a wedding in his state. We are same tribe but different states. When he came back. He started picking quarrels with me for no just cause. Before you know it, he packed out of our house. And friends, you can not believe it. He got married to someone else two months after he left our house. He married the Daughter of a very rich man from their state. I was told by people to disrupt their wedding, but I did not. I left it all to God and moved on with my life.
A few months after their wedding, he came pleading, asking for a reconciliation. I refused and told him to concentrate on his marriage, that I've moved on. This world is wicked. Girls , learn from my experience .do not co habit unless you are properly married.

I THINK I WAS UNFAIR TO MY HUSBAND.
I THINK I WAS UNFAIR TO MY HUSBAND.
Hello Ma,
My name is Bose (not her real name). I think I was unfair to my husband. I denied him listening to his classical music before he died. My husband was very sick and we took him to different hospitals across Nigeria. I was a born again Christian and I took him to church and he joined me in switching from Anglican to Pentecostal church. He also became born again. A few weeks before he died, he requested that I should play one of his old favorites, a Sunny Ade song. I blatantly refused and told him that he will not listen to any worldly music in our house except gospel music. I feel so guilty these days because I denied him his only request. I was acting “holier-than-thou” and now I occasionally listen to the same secular music I denied my husband. My heart aches as I remember my wickedness. This should be a lesson to others not to play “holier-than-thou”.

I DID NOT KNOW SHE WAS AN ENEMY
My name is Omemma, (not her real name) I am a widow. I live in my own house, not a rented one. I thank God for that. I have helped a lot of people in search of accommodation or people that are homeless to take shelter in my house but each time they come, they will go out paying me evil for good. All these did not stop me from helping people. The one that broke my heart was this one of Madam Imi Oja. (Not her real name too) I run a restaurant business(not her real business). I have halls that I rent to people for different activities. A pastor rented one of the halls . He was doing well only that he was slow in paying the stipend I charge them. Madam Imi Oja is a divorcee going through tough and mysterious battle with her estranged husband . She comes around my office calling the name of God, quoting bible passages upon bible passages. I thought that she was a woman of God, and I opened my arms for her. One day, Madam Imi Oja came to my office and saw Pastor Ekweko (not his real name) going out of my premises , on enquiring the presence of the Pastor in my business premises, I told her that he was renting one of my halls for his fellowship. She told me that the Pastor is not a good Pastor that I should send him away. I did as Madam Imi Oja told me not knowing that she was telling lies against the Pastor. One day, she came to my house and begged me to allow her to stay in my house for just one month so that she will complete her new house since she can no longer stay in the same house with her former husband. That her life was being threatened. I gladly welcomed her and gave her a self contained room inside my flat to stay. My friends, this Madam, instead of one month she said she will stay, stayed for almost one year before she shamelessly left my house. I made this woman to be very comfortable in my house. People coming for the first time in that house will think she is the Madam of the house. She brings in all manner of visitors in my house. Does whatever she likes but I will not complain . I did not know that this woman is an enemy. She was really jealous of me but I did not know. I thank God she did not poison me before leaving. I started gathering Widows over fifteen years ago . This woman came from my back and collected some of my widows to open her own widows meeting. One day some people asked me to gather my widows for them and as the programmer was going on, another friend of mine overheard her telling my guest that she can gather more widows than myself. And they warned me that this wmon is not my friend but I did not hear. She was also instigating my workers against me. After some times, my grand mother died and Madam Imi Oja followed me for her funeral to the village. All my brothers and sisters come back from far and near. There was this my sister studying in one french speaking country , while the husband stays in one of the northern states of Our country that came for that burial . I introduced mrs Imi Oja to all the members of my family. Little did I know that she was targeting my sisters husband. After the burial , Madam Imi Oja was still living with me when he sneaked and went and spent one week without my knowledge in my inlaws house while the wife have gone back to school.This woman started saying unprintable things about me to my inlaw. We planned before that we will join our widows together and plan a one man widows march and also write a proposal to the government to that effect. Before you know it , this woman took my inlaw to meet the the leaders of a particular political party with a proposal to organize the widows march alone. They turned down their proposal. All these where happening without my knowledge , yet she told my inlaw that their enemy went and spoilt their show for them. When my inlaw wanted to know who was the enemy, she called my name, that i am their enemy. She said I know people in that political party that I called them on phone not to listen to them. Her story is too much. I will continue some other time. But friends, please check this very well. (1) she made me to drive an innocent Pastor out of my premises. (2) she was calling me enemy while still living in my house. (3)she went and spent one week in my inlaws house while the wife was not in the house without telling me and she was still living under my roof. (4) ........... (Please this story will be completed in no distance time. Continue checking to hear the conclusion of the whole story)

MY MOTHER ? GOD SAVED HER, IF NOT EH....
Hello Ma, my name is Bola(not his real name) My parents were notable people in the society. They command lots of respects from the public. They were always counseling people but no body can counsel them. They praid for people but no body prays for them. People thought that they were not humans. They don't know that people in that position should be remembered in prayers. My parents lived like cat and dog inside our house but outside they appeared to be perfect. I pity people that carry their problems to other people instead of taking it straight to God. At times, people will bring their problems to my parents just one second after my parents have finished fighting. And you can see the way both of them will be advising the people, you will feel that my parents were the best. Any way, my parents kept on fighting , until one day my mother left the house. My siblings and I pleaded with our mother to come . She finally came back after two years She left the house. As she came back, they were living fairly in peace. My father died after two years that my mother returned to the house. My mother could not raise up her face to cry about her husband's death when ever she sees us because we knew how they lived. My friends, God saved our mother and made her to come back to our father before he died, if not, we the children will never forgive her in our lives. Don't you think so?

JOHNSON URGENTLY NEED YOUR ADVICE
Ma, my name is Johnson. (Not his real name) I am the third child in a family of six children . We were neither rich nor poor. Our father was able to send us to a private school their school fees was ten thousand Naira only. We were eating very well then. We had all the basics of life. Then one day , our father died, just like that without being sick. Our life began to change. Our mother could no longer take core of our education. Feeding became very hard for us. Friends advised my mother to share us to people who will help her to train us. My mother then gave five of us out to different people. She kept the last born who was only three years old then. I, Johnson was given to one of my fathers relative as a store boy. My uncle as we used to call him then deals on motor parts. We go to the shop, sell and still go home to do house chores. The agreement was that I will serve him for eight years and he will settle me to start my own business . I was thirteen year when our father died. We stayed very well without any trouble for seven years .infact, I was his wife's favorite servant . Because I can pound yam very well. Every day , when we come back from the shop, madam will tell me to go and pound yam. When we entered the eight years that they will settle me, their character began to change towards me. If they did not accuse me of stealing, they will accuse me of one thing or the other. Six months to my settlement day, my master, Mr Gabriel asked me to go back to my mother that he will come and see us. We waited for almost three months and Mr Gabriel did not come. My mother deceieded to visit him to find out why he sent me back to her. My master , mr Gabriel told my mother that I am a thief, that I stole more than three million Naira from his business . That he will not settle me unless I produce that money. My widowed mother cried out her eyes but it did not change matter. Not only did my master refuse to settle me but he gave me order not to stay in the same town he is staying, and also that I should not come to the same market where he is selling too because I will divert his customers. Ma ,you know that I am saying the truth. I came to you with my mother for advice. You offered to help but we could not come back to you again. When I saw your blog, I deceieded to narrate my story to the public so that they can advice me. Please, my friends, how will I go about this matter.? ( note... I only changed the names of people in this write up. , I am publishing it the way I received it .) happy reading.

WE DROVE OUR FATHER'S WIFE AWAY FiFTEEN HOURS AFTER THEIR WEDDING
Ma, my name is YUSUF (not his real name.) I am the most senior of three boys born to our parents. My father and mother lived a very good and loving life worthy of emulation. We never saw them quarrel outside. All we do hear was a little argument inside their bedroom . They quickly cover up so that no body will know that there was misunderstanding between them. They loved each other. My mother took ill and died after unsuccessful efforts to save her life. After one year anniversary of our mother's death, people suggested to us that we should get another wife for our father to be cooking for him since we are all boys and we are not living in the same town with our father. We suggested getting another wife for our Father, we were afraid that our father will not agree to marrying another wife,no, not after one year of our mothers death. But to our greatest surprise, our Father jumped in to that suggestion and even volunteered to look for one as fast as possible. My brothers and I went inside our mothers room and cried the hell out of our eyes. Imagine our father that lived a happy married life with our mother becoming so much excited about getting another wife just one year after his loving wife's death. We were expecting him to refuse our request and then we should then be the people begging him to marry. We however went on with the arrangement to let him marry. Within one week, our father told us that he has seen a girl to marry. We saw the lady , our last born even senior the lady. We told our father to get an older woman, preferably an old widow . He refused. We planned the wedding to fall on the Easter Monday. We told our father that everything will be a low key and sober celebration since our mothers death was fresh in our mind. Ma, we have to drive this girl away after fifteen hours of being married to our father. Why, yes. My father and this girl drank and danced like no man business . We were ashamed of the way our father displayed his shameful act. Without respect to our late mother. Ma, I think we are right in our decision ? Are we?

MY SECRETARY TOOK OVER MY HUSBAND
Hi Nonye, My name is Madam Peace (not her real name). I got married to the love of my life fifteen years ago. We have six children now to the glory of The Lord . We grew from abject poverty to wealth . It is something I can not explain. People say that I brought good luck to my husband. I married him for love, not for any thing. He could not even afford to pay my dowry. My mother secretly gave him my dowry to pay. My mother was then selling dry fish in cartons. She saved so much money for my marriage because I am her only daughter. I have two siblings that are boys. When we got married, my mother paid three months house rent for us in a city. She gave us three cartons of fish to start our own business . The market was moving. We started turning over in an amassing way. We buy the best fish. We started supplying to hotels and individuals. We go as far as the far north to buy live fish and roast it to our taste. People look forward to the day we will come back from the bush market. We could not contain our customers. When I got pregnant for our first child, we decided that I will stay at home so that only my husband will be going to the bush market. We then opened a one room provision shop near our house so that I will not be ideal in the house. My husband was doing the fish business while I was in the provision shop. One day , someone brought a sack of baking flour for me to try selling in measures. To cut the long story short, with the help of the woman, I graduated to becoming a distributor to so many company. We got a ware house, my husband left the fish market to join me in this fast growing business. We became major distributor in almost everything you can find in a provision store. We later built two powerful supper markets. My husband was overseeing the bigger one while I was running the smaller one. Some Bank gave us facilities. All these we're happening over a period of twelve years of our married life, by then I have already had five children for him. I was pregnant again on our thirteenth year of our marriage when my doctor told me to have a bed rest. We decided to employ a secretary in my own supper market by name miss Nancy. Nonye , to cut the whole story short, my husband started going out with this secretary . I did not suspect any fowl play . I thought the business was getting hard on him. Small time, he started keeping late nights,he will not eat my own food again, he will complain on every little thing. My husband started complaining about dust in the house, children making too much noise, he will ask me if I was the only pregnant woman on earth that I can not sweep the house properly. If he manages to eat my food for a while, he will complain of either too much salt in the food or no salt at all, not enough crayfish or that the oil is much and so on and so on. One day, my husband came very early and asked me to empty all the money in my savings account so that we can join with his to buy stock for the festive period. I gladly did so, thinking that it will make him become loving again. He came back again , telling me that the money was not enough that if I can sell all my jewelries that he will double them for me after the festive period. I did also as he told me. On the eight month of the pregnancy of our sixth child, Jerome my husband packed out of our matrimonial house . He was not there when I gave birth to my sixth child for him. He left with my Murano Jeep. A friend of fine told me that there was a rumour going on that my husband got married to our secretary in her own village. My mother died after five years I got married. My brothers are not doing well, I have no one to run to. My heart is broken. One day , I was on top of Moto cycle when I saw Nancy driving and blaring music in my own very car. My husband emptied me and left. As I am writing you now, my baby is one year now and the father have not seen him. The othe five children are undergoing mental torture on the whereabout of their father. I have gone back to my Fish business, this time, it is not dry fish but Ice fish. Nonye , you and the public should advise me on what to do. Thank you. ( I tried as much as possible to publish this letter in its original form. I only altered the names of people there. Do read and advise. )

UPDATE ON ABUJA BOMB BLAST.
Our earlier report that ,there was no other casualty in the Abuja bomb blast apart from the suicide bomber herself may not after all be correct .

CAN WE HAVE MORE NANA PATEKAR in this world?
NANA PATEKAR is a man most people on earth must emulate, especially the rich. In this era , where the rich are mercilessly acquiring wealth as if they will not die one day not knowing who will enjoy their wealth after their departure from this Mother Earth .
Just like a story I heard somewhere , that a certain rich man died bequeathing a stupendous wealth to his young bride who later on married their driver. The driver said that he thought he was all these years working for his master, not knowing that his master was the one working for him all these years.what am I saying? Some rich people will be accumulating riches for only themselves and their families. They do not care about the poor and needy in their community. Lots of people commit suicide these days because of financial problem . These people are relatives and neighbors to the rich. some rich people will not come to their aids for nothing. It will rather be an opportunity for then to rip off the poor. They will rather want to buy off the proprieties of the poor in other to pretend to help them. They may not even buy the properties at a reasonable price. But because, the poor is desperate , they have no other option than to sell their cherished properties. The rich in some countries have continued to buy off the properties of the poor. Chasing the poor out of their inheritance just to build empires for themselves. Thank God for few rich people like Bill Gates and others, Nana PATEKAR who has been spending their hard earned money for the needy. I have never met NANA before, but , I have been hearing and reading about him. I cried when I heard what he is doing for his people. Nana, is a man whom God has been using in his community to save the lives of farmers who wants to commit suicide because of their debt. Nana will tell them not to commit suicide, but tell him . Nana will pay off their debt and save his people from dying. Nana is a man who ordinarily would ,like any other rich man, want to live a luxurious life style . Ride latest, big and expensive cars and others like so many of them in some countries who go with convoys of cars and bodyguards. But Nana will rather choose to go with rickety car than to see his people commit suicide because of debt. How many rich men do we have in our comunity now that will do like Nana? I heard about another rich man who demolished all the ancient homes of the poor in his comunity and built modern houses for all of them. Not only that,, he will be feeding the old people with free meals. As we are approaching the end of the year and festive period, these rich men and women are warming up on the latest cars , convoys to go and oppress the poor in their comunity. The poor are also warming up to go and collect the crump. Can the rich please emulate Nana Pateker, Bill Gates and others that really and truly cares for the poor.
