JUST IN: 2Baba has condemned the continued killings in Benue State, describing the attacks on communities in Otukpo Local Government Area as unacceptable.
Why are you so proud of your beauty to the extent that you treat people badly? No matter how handsome you are, your body is destined to be food for maggots. Beauty does not shield you from the death duty you owe the Supreme Deity. Respond when people greet you. Your looks do not make you superior to anyone. Please fact-check me: There have been 72 Miss Worlds and 74 Miss Universes. And no matter how gorgeous they have been, when their time comes, they still succumb to the grave to be eaten by maggots, just like every other person. So be humble before you stumble and tumble into your tomb!

Signs that you missed your home etiquette lessons.
Especially when you visit people and do these:
1) You shower and leave soap lathers on the wall.
I can chase you back to your house that very day.
It takes nothing to rinse off the walls after bathing. Don't disgust me.
2) You dump dishes on the sink with left over crumbs of food on it.
I don't understand. What happens to taking off the left over food in the trash?
3) I'm cooking, and you're telling me how you cook yours.
Oya, come and collect the pot and cook it. Don't try that rubbish.
4) You take the last piece of apple, and you're not kind enough to replace it.
This is a very bad habit. You don't take the last piece of item and not replace it.
5) Water accidentally spills on the floor, and you leave it.
Anything that spills, please wipe it. I don't want to step on water.
6) You see your host's shoes outside, you wear yours into the house. As how nau???
7) You pick a pen from the drawer. You're done using it, you keep it on the table.
Me that kept it in the drawer, I don't have sense abi?
Make sure you keep everything in the same position you saw them before you used them.
8) After eating, you see a few unwashed dishes in the sink. You now add yours😭
For who?
It's really not that difficult to wash your dish and go. Or, wash the others too as you wash yours.
9) You pull of your clothes and dump them on the chair.
Do you know if everyone behaves like you, in one week.. the house will look like a wastebasket?
Just use a hanger, hang your clothes. Or fold them neatly.
10) You pick the last bottle of water from the fridge. Please place another bottle there to get cold.
The person who put the one you took probably needed it to get cold.
11) You put on the slippons meant for walking around in the house, you take it to the bathroom, shower with it and wear it back wet, into the room.
I'm going to be really offended.
I get easily irritated by these things. And I think it's what parents should try to educate their kids on early enough.
Because at some point, you may visit people who take these things seriously.
And when they correct you, you may begin to wonder what the big deal is.
To some of us, it's a big deal.
What are your pet peeves? 🎤
Dear young men,
Especially those of you between the ages of 27-33 and are still single.
This is how you know that you may have found your wife:
1. She's highly interested in what you do legitimately for a living, actively trying to encourage you to build your career or business, and always looking out for other opportunities for you.
2. If you live alone, she takes initiatives without being told by observing your home and trying to buy things she knows you need to live a better life in preparation for marriage.
3. She will hardly ask you for money, not because she doesn't need it, but because it's easy for her to get money from other men. And she knows that taking money from other men is an "invitation to treat", and can destroy her relationship with you. And she wouldn't want to make you feel that she's with you for your money, too.
4. When you give her money to do certain things, either for you or for her, she'll try to give you an account of how she spent the money.
5. She keeps boundaries with your friends and doesn't try to compare you with them. Rather, she would look out for that friend whom she observes has your best interests at heart, and encourage you to stay close to him.
6. She will not use sex as a weapon in the relationship, neither would she use it as a bargaining chip.
7. She actively gives you updates on how her day went, and she doesn't come to your house with her phone on silent mode or airplane mode.
8. She will try to abide by how you like her to dress, and she'll listen to you when you caution her about certain behavior that you do not like.
9. She'll actively want you to know her siblings and show interest in and respect for your siblings as well.
10. She'll not hold back if you ask her to lend you money, if she has it. But you, the man, must keep to your words when paying her back.
11. She'll bend many rules for you, but you should not take undue advantage of it.
12. She'll stress you sometimes, and test you in as many ways as possible. She's doing all that to see how well you can lead her, and how well you can control your emotions or anger.
13. She'll make mistakes. But you should use it as a teaching moment for her. If you don't judge her too harshly, she'll start to listen to you more. When you make a woman trust you with her vulnerability, she'll overlook some of your excesses.
14. She'll actively seek your validation and yours alone; whatever you say is good for her, she will accept it. And she won't care what the world says or feels about her.
15. She will not force you to be religious, but she will actively observe whether you respect God, because a man without God may not be a good leader.
If you have a lady that can do at least 10 out of the 15, you may have found your wife.
And remember, when you choose your wife, you have chosen your destiny.
End.
