8 QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK YOUR PARTNER BEFORE MARRIAGE

Before tying the knot, these questions should answered by both partners in preparation for their next level.
 1.  What does your relationship with your family and friends look like? What role will your two families and friends play in your life together? This spans everything from short visits, to extended stays, to holidays and special events.
2.  What is your financial goal in terms of annual income and what are your expenses like? For your annual income, this includes how much you earn together and what your collective goal is, as well as your individual goals and how you anticipate achieving them. In terms of your expenses, this can include the percentage of income you’re each willing to spend on maintaining your home as well as your categories of expenses such as clothing, insurance, and travel etc.
3.  Will you have children together? If you both want children, how many children do you want to have, and when? How will having children change the way you currently live?
4.  How ambitious are you? Are you comfortable with each other’s level of ambition? How will this affect how much time you spend at work and your commitment to your career/family?
5.  Are you each satisfied with the frequency of your intimacy? Do your desire levels match and how do you cope if they don’t?
6.  Are you happy with each other’s approach to health? Does one of you have a habit or habits that concerns the other? How important is a healthy lifestyle to you and what does that encompass?
7. Do you share a religion or spiritual practice and in what way does that play a part in your life together? Do you each belong to a religious institution? How much time do you devote to your religious practice and are you each understanding and respectful of the other’s choices?

8. How do you share responsibilities in terms of kids and household duties? Who is responsible for the housekeeping and how do you divvy up your chores? Will having a child affect your work schedule or reduce your work hours?

He says: “Well, it didn’t take much time, when God wants to bless you, it just happens all of a sudden, and before you know it, things would just start working faster for you. We were at the center of Obasanjo’s rally then. He wanted to do the 2017 youth dialogue, which was four months ago. He was going to be the father of the day while I was the host for the event. I just pitched the idea to my management team and told them I wanted to do this as my little contribution to the growth of the youth. I was ready for the worse. I had already programmed my mind for anything, but when I met him, he loved the idea.”
Ajibola also disclosed how he felt standing in front of the former president to ask for such an enormous request.

I CAN NOT MARRY A POOR MAN – Iyabo Ojo


Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, has given reasons she will never marry a poor man.
The actress whose marriage crashed, and has since refused to remarry, told Punch that she is now ready to give marriage a chance.
She said, “If marriage comes along, yes I will consider it. Then, I used to say that I didn’t want to get married again because of the stress involved.
“Now, I have had a rethink. But I can’t marry a poor man. Some people will say I shouldn’t say that, but I am a blunt person. For someone like me, there is no love without money. I am a celebrity and I am
expected to maintain a certain lifestyle, which is expensive.”
“I have a lot of responsibilities . As a breadwinner and celebrity , how do you expect me to marry a poor man? Where do you expect us to start from?
“I am not ready to add any man’s problems to mine. I don’t need the man to be very rich, but he must be able to feed himself and me. You don’t even have to cater for my other responsibilities.

“We all have our defects. When you keep looking for an ideal man, a good one will pass you by. I just need a man who is responsible for himself first before me. Once he is hungry for success, every other thing will follow.
“The kind of man I want in my life has to be more successful than me. When I bought my personal assistant a car , people said I didn’t want her to marry. I told them that I don’t expect her to marry someone who does not have a car as well.
“You say what you want out of life; we shouldn’t deceive ourselves. It is a choice to die in poverty and I have chosen not to die in poverty. I cannot flow with someone who wants to die in poverty.”

WHY I WILL NOT KISS IN MOVIES AGAIN – Majid Michel

He said his motive was not to seek the attention of anyone.
Quoting directly from the scriptures, he wrote, via his Instagram page, “Am I now trying to win the favour and approval of men or that of God?
“Or am I seeking to please someone? If I were still trying to be popular with men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ.”

Ghanaian actor turned preacher, Majid Michel has said he will no longer accept kissing roles in movies as that may affect his new assignment as an Evangelist.
Majid who recently talked about masturbation and his love for God revealed this during an interview on Bryte FM.
The Famous actor known for having good looks said this decision will help him take the gospel to the end of the world.
According to the actor, Ghanaians judge him by the characters he plays in movies.

FRANCIS ODINAKA UZOHO SETS NEW RECORD IN SPANISH LALIGA HISTORY

UAE 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup gold medal-winning goalkeeper, Francis Odinaka Uzoho at the weekend entered the record books of La-Liga, as the Spanish top-flight league’s youngest foreign shot-stopper ever.

Uzoho achieved the feat with his debut for Deportivo La Coruna in their 0-0 draw away to Eibar, as he started in goal for Pep Mel’s side at Ipura Municipal Stadium.
Uzoho who was signed from Qatar-based Aspire Academy one year ago, was handed his debut with a starting role at 18 years and 352 days old.
This makes the over six feet tall shot-topper the youngest foreigner to keep goal in La-Liga following his debut, where he showed no sign of a player playing his first top flight day.

Ironically the oldest foreigner to have kept goal in the La-Liga also did so while playing for Deportivo La Coruna, and that was legendary Cameroon goalkeeper Jacques Songo’o when he kept goal for them at the age of 40 years and 67 days in 2004.
Uzoho will no doubt be hoping to emulate the success of Songo’o at the club as he is now going to be the first choice goalkeeper until Reuben who is out injured returns.

CONTRARY TO POLICE REPORT CHIME WAS ACTUALLY POISONED- Family

The Family of Chime Amaechi, who died in the same car alongside Davido’s friend DJ Olu, has denied reports that their son died as a result of drug overdose.
Chime and DJ Olu were found dead in a car at the parking lot of the Banana Island apartment they lived in.
Speaking to The net, the bereaved family said, reports that Chime died of drug overdose was false as he was not a drug user.
Mr Amaechi said, ”My late son was not a drug user, like me he didn’t even drink and when he did, it was always in very small quantity. He was a level-head, nice human being.”
”Even when he left school and started business, he would always let me know his next line of action, so I am surprised that these lies are being spread about him.’’
Also speaking, his sister said, ‘‘Chime is not that type of person, If you see drug addicts, they don’t think straight most times, Chime is not like that.’’ his sister added.
The father went on to say he had accepted the death of Chime as a Christian who had left everything to God but couldn’t keep quiet seeing the lies being spread about his son.
He also said his son was 23-year-old and not 25 as speculated. Adding that he only wanted justice for the death of his son.
‘I spoke to the DPO of Ikoyi Police Station when I saw the Punch story and he said investigations were still ongoing and there’s no way that can be correct.
”They even got the age wrong: they said he’s 25. My son that I gave birth to is just 23. He was 23 in February. We just want justice to be done.’’

HOW SOCIAL MEDIA DESTROYED SEGUN ARINZE’S MARRIAGE

Veteran Nollywood actor, Segun Arinze has said that social media is helping to destroy so many celebrity marriages.
The 52-year-old actor who suffered a broken marriage in 2003 from his ex-wife and actress Anne Njemanze ‘Domitila’ said celebrities aren’t “helping themselves” by putting their private lives on social media.
“I have had my share of it,” he said, speaking to LIB “remember I had a broken marriage.”
He said:
Social Media is helping to destroy so many marriages and a lot of our so-called celebrities are not helping themselves by putting their marriages and relationships on social media.
Your private life should be private. I have had my share of it, remember I had a broken marriage before I remarried again.
Learn to keep your private life private and your public life public. You don’t let the whole world come into your life and see what you are doing because the same people who are seeing you today and going to mock you tomorrow.
As a public figure, it’s really tough being a public figure. Celebrities need to separate their private lives from the public, show what’s necessary if it’s important.
It’s really crazy how everybody post about their private life on the Internet, looking for likes and all that. Social media has its advantages in terms of reaching out to fans, marketing and promoting of your brands. But the disadvantages will come back to hurt you.
