Pregnancy before Marriage (Episode 1)

Pre-marital sex or even getting pregnant before Marriage can be seen from different angles and perspective depending on the individual, community and more interestingly religion, there are quite a number of addendum to it but I won't talk about it in those directions. I wish I could spare more words to argue for or against but you see, I have to be neutral; very neutral because of the direction I'm taking this discussion. Let me go straight to the point without wasting much time.

Quite a number of people tell me "you are a different man"; well I am glad I am. I have this orientation that prefers the ideology that you should start preparing yourself Mentally, Financially, Psychologically and Emotionally before marriage; my opinion is that you don't start studying for an exam on the day of the examination, that's why counselling, courting and reading of books is recommended for intending couples.

Marriage is sacred. It ought to be sacred at least. Like my father will say whenever he's privileged to give speech on marriage during weddings ceremonies. "Marriage is a parcel, until you open it, you don't know. Whatever you see, is what you get and it can't be returned " I have this feeling that he's indirectly saying, no room for divorce you accept what you accept and this is more reason why I believe you should have an understanding of the institution before accepting the admission letter of marriage.

I have heard and seen much about the natural power tussle that ensue between the mother in-law (the groom's mother) and the wife in most marriages even before it starts, it is somehow a battle of two women that are in love with the same MAN and are either seeking prominence or relevance. Sometimes the mother in-laws acts out of genuine but selfish desire, she goes to the length of advising her son to make sure she can conceive before putting a ring on it because, she wants certainty of grandchildren, especially if he's the only son. Others are worried about sanctity and they advise their sons to bring home a virgin and get her in the family's way for fear that the woman might have aborted, but some women marry as virgins and don't conceive on time. I have heard of marriages that took a decade to bear fruit yet the woman married as a virgin . Marriage like I describe is an institution, yes like a university, you just have to shoulder it like a boss and go past the hurdles whether you like it or not. I'm yet to see any perfect marriage, so ladies and gents, let me burst the bubble of my opinion on it. A perfect he/she does not exist, you can't find a perfect lady or Guy.


Back to the matter, yes! Pre-marital sex and pregnancy before marriage as a continuum. You see, it is criminal to pretend these things don't happen, it is even more common in the church than on the street and we can only pretend. Now there are many sides to a coin, not two this time around.


Spiritually and morally, we were taught it's wrong to catch the ball before catching the ring, but socialism and westernization has crept in and become part of our life, and it has made so many things seem normal. Depending on the angle you take it from, it might be right or wrong, but I'm not here to preach or deliver a Sermon . After all, "nobody holy pass" like 2face says . A few questions from me to you, maybe it will clear the air better on this discuss.

What if you get her pregnant and you decide not to marry her again? What if she's pregnant and you are forced to marry someone you don't see yourself settling with? What if you get her pregnant, you are force to marry her and then, she miscarried the baby? What if there are complications during child birth which affects her womb and she can't have another? What if she has a still-birth? Anything could go right or wrong, so many instances running through my head right now which could occur in the aftermath. We've heard of couples who even used pregnancy to have their way with their parents, only to find out that there are so many things beyond their idea of love and Marriage but are forced to accept their decision and union. Let's agree there are mistakes, but as for me, I think it is not totally wrong taking into consideration at times, my opinion however not an endorsement for immorality.

It's indeed a sensitive issue; it should be a choice that should be between couples involved and not an issue for national or religious debate. I am an apostle of "let me know your past", even if you have had several abortions it doesn't end eternity, LOVE still does exist or doesn't it? It is the decision of a man and a woman to marry each other and the conditions therein should be between the two. Marriage is for better for worse, not for worse for flee.


It seems simple because I am not in any of the shoes presented right? But then, you would have an idea of what you want your marriage to be like, even if it's not a total eclipse of what it should be. I have an Idea of what I want my marriage to be. This is where I stand, your stand might be different so I will be glad if you can let me know how you feel about this.

Crisis Rocks Enugu PDP. Battle between the Governor and Senate Deputy President

The All Progressives Congress, APC, on Tuesday said the continous crisis in the Enugu State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, means that the ruling party will not be able to present a candidate in the state in 2015.

The chairman of the APC in Enugu State, Dr. Ben Nwoye, said this while speaking at a news conference where he rejoiced over what he said was the "death of the PDP" in the state.

It'd be noted that there is currently a battle between two factions, one loyal to Governor Sullivan Chime and the other loyal to the Deputy Senate President, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, over the control of the party structure in the state.

While the Chime camp insists that Chief Ikeje Asogwa is the chairman of the party, the Ekweremadu faction, led by one Elder David Aja, says he was endorsed by the National Working Committee (NWC) as acting chairman.

Both factions have gone to court to obtain court orders to restrain each other from acting as the leadership of the PDP in the state.

Reports also suggest that the Chime faction, which also obtained a court order that stopped the national secretariat of the party from acting on the delegates list presented by the Ekweremadu group, is already looking for another political party to realise their aspirations in 2015, as there were reports that the Chime faction met today (Tuesday) to deliberate whether or not they should dump the party for the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA.



Speaking on Tuesday against the backdrop of the ongoing crisis in the PDP, APC chairman, Nwoye, said the PDP in Enugu would not recover from the current crisis.

Nwoye also stated that a member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, who was endorsed by Chime as the PDP consensus candidate for the 2015 election is said to be looking at joining another party to realise his ambition.

"APC is mourning the PDP in Enugu State, PDP as a political party in Enugu State is gone.

"Gburugburu (Ugwuanyi) is looking for another platform.

"The Ekweremadu group has used their legal prowess in Abuja to tie down PDP while the Chime group has tied down PDP in Enugu State.

"So it means that PDP will not be able to present a candidate in Enugu State in 2015.

"We are now mourning the demise of the PDP – the prayers of the people have finally worked," Nwoye said.

He also added that the APC was not responsible for the misfortune of the PDP in Enugu State, but rather said the "PDP ruling class who have failed Nigerians while enriching themselves" are responsible.

Senate passes NFF act

In a bid to restore peace to Nigerian football, the Senate has passed into law a bill recognising the Nigeria Football Federation, while withdrawing the Nigeria Football Association Act of 2004.

The passage took place on Thursday, after deliberations from the lawmakers. Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu, stated that the bill makes NFF legal and limits government interference.

"I do believe that this (bill) helps the development of our football and the entire crisis we've had in the past. I believe that this bill will bring it to an end," Ekweremadu told reporters.

"The entire crisis we've had in the past (in the governance of Nigerian football)."

Adamu Gumba, the chairman of the Senate Committee on Sports, explained that that the new bill is an upgrade of the former one and is in line with FIFA's statutes.

"This bill makes sure that most of the provisions of the law comply with Fifa regulations because each time we hear Fifa intervening in Nigeria's football administration saying it is going to sanction the national federation for disobeying this statute or that regulations," Gumba said.

"So this bill is meant to remove those areas (of friction between the NFF and Fifa) to make sure our football administrators work in accordance with the governing regulations of Fifa."

Why Good Women are often Overlooked

As a man and even as a young boy, I've always envisioned myself growing up, being successful, chasing my dreams and building memories with one woman, one good woman. I believe that one good woman is enough. A good woman can take the place of many, meaning that instead of chasing several women, that one good woman has everything that a man would want and more.

I've come to realize that in many cases, a good woman is often over looked for so many reasons. One of which being the fact that having a good woman means being with a strong woman and so many men are too weak to realize the value and benefit of having a strong woman within their life. A woman who is outspoken, takes no bull and isn't willing to put up with some of the everyday foolery that some men put out. See for some men it's harder to deal with a strong woman simply because she won't deal with a man who is only around to weigh her down and use up all her energy.

A good woman who knows her worth may put up with some of your shit, but not for too long, because it's only a matter of time before she realizes that she can do and deserves better.
It takes a real man to deal with, maintain and remain faithful within a relationship with a good woman. It takes a real man to know what his woman is worth, knowing that he would do anything to keep her happy.

Good women are often over looked by boys pretending to be men, claiming to love her only for a while in hopes that he can get what he really wants from her, her body.
All in all, being with a good woman takes actual effort and it's just sad that so many of us men are way too lazy to provide everything that a good woman requires, desires and deserves.

All hope isn't lost though, With time, sooner or later someone will step up to the plate and be ready to treat that woman with the respect that she deserves and give her the love that she's willing to also give back.
As for me, I appreciate all of which a good woman has to offer and wish all of you nothing but  happiness in the present and in future, never lose hope and never settle for less than you deserve.

Sadly, it also works the other way around. Good men are also overlooked. Sometimes women expect us to continue fulfilling traditional male roles while they become more like the men women used to criticise. But alas, sometimes we feel better alone but its not good for man to be alone .
I said to myself sometime ago , if I knew half of what I know now some years back, would still be with the woman I dated back then. But life is full of experience, without it, we can't be a better person .
