Rip ma. I am so sad and depressed. This world is filled with problems, deceit, cheaps and so on. I live abroad and engaged to a guy, got pregnant and only to discover he is married with 2 wives. His parents are so nice to me, and upon d knowing of this secret, this guy claims he loves me and his intention is to leave d 2 previous women cos they are chronic cheats which is known by his family members. His parents said they did warned him 2 inform me and also confirmed they do not want the previous wives cos they are bad. He tells me how he wish I was his 1st and only. I do not know what 2do or say, I feel trapped and d secret is just too much for me to bear,i have neva wished for a polygamous life, and I don't even know if it won't be termed as polygamy cos the oda 2 wives will be leaving.. so sad and depressed

Stop thinking before u get high bp.... Sorry to say but this guy is a liar and a cheat.... Run for your life.... Polygamy is not strange to our culture but a man who keeps quiet about two wives is dangerous.... His family is equally dangerous so shine your eyes oh....am married too so no be jealous advice be this, leave the negroe.... A word is enough for the wise
DeleteAugust is far away,maybe family rite.it really sad too many death lately.God pls protect us all

August ain't any far compared to the kind of crowd she pulled while alive.. Akunyili isn't a small meat that her burial have to be rushed. Most big people i know especially in igbo land takes time before burying their own in order to put a lot of things in place. Even if a year is giving up just for her burial, i will still say she deserves it because she was the Best and must be given the best. It hurts me so well i didn't i get to accomplish one of my many dreams which was meeting with prof dora one on one and saying the things i know no one has ever said to her in her life, maybe that way, she would have lived longer for us. I live to mourn you madam dora. Impeccable best describes you while i assure you that out of sight ain't out of mind. RiP Mrs Nkem D. Akunyili
ReplyDeleteMay her soul find peace in the Lord. *sadface*
