Many nurses I met here in the uk were the one financing their home for the first few years of their relocation.
These are people who did not pay rent while in Nigeria.
These are people whose husbands were engineers, doctors, Lecturers in Nigeria but after relocation had to do menial jobs ti sustain the family.
The idea of “50/50 in marriage” sounds fair, modern, and balanced, but in real life, it’s one of the biggest fallacies we keep spreading.
Marriage has never worked on perfect arithmetic. It works on capacity, season, and sacrifice…not percentages.
Some days one partner will give 80 while the other gives 20.
Some seasons, one person will be strong, and the other will be fighting silent battles.
Some moments, one will carry the emotional weight, financial burden, or household responsibilities because the other is simply drained.
And that’s not failure.
That is marriage.
The truth is simple: no human being can wake up every day and contribute exactly “50.” People get tired. People get sick. People break down emotionally. People lose jobs. Life shifts. Energy fluctuates.
A healthy marriage is not two people calculating what the other has done, it is two people who are committed to showing up fully in whatever capacity they have each day.
Today you may carry your partner.
Tomorrow they may carry you.
Balance is achieved over time, not in one moment.
And here’s another reality people avoid:
Sometimes the person who is giving “30” is actually giving 100% of what they have in that season. And the partner giving “70” also gives because they can at that moment. That is partnership, not exploitation.
The people who survive marriage long-term understand one thing clearly:
Marriage is not 50/50. Marriage is 100/100.
Two people committed to giving their best, not an equal fraction, but a full effort according to their ability, their health, their season, and their reality.
When you insist on 50/50, you reduce marriage to a business contract.
When you understand 100/100, you embrace marriage as a covenant, a daily decision to love, support, and show up.
Some days you will be the one lifting.
Some days you will be the one leaning.
And that is perfectly fine.
Anyone who wants a mathematical marriage will never experience a meaningful one. Love has never been about counting. It has always been about giving.
My friend and I tried watching Shina on Netflix yesterday, and it was so cringy. I tried to keep watching to see if it’ll get better at any point but it only got worse that I couldn’t take it anymore. Nurses are not house helps or errand girls/ boys.
When the entire world is moving forward, NMCN decided to move 10 years behind.
If the board don’t care about their own kids, at least pity other people’s children.
The economy is not helping, you people decided to add your own to it.
Do you enjoy when you see people suffering ? Is it a curse?

MISSING PERSON.
My Sister, Ayomide Popoola is missing. She was last seen on Saturday 3rd of December around Awosuru street, Osogbo.

Please any information regarding her whereabouts will be highly appreciated.
Please RT
Rico was brought into that hospital via a taxi in company of a good Samaritan.
The hospital couldn't manage and made a referral, but not before first response was given; Suctioning done, IV line set and solution dripping, wounds cleaned and all.
Now, who will assist the nurse..
@OgbeniDipo Did you see any nurse behind the camera, all I could hear was the nurses soliciting for help from people to assist in lifting the patients, which is necessarily the job of paramedics, which are none existent in Nigerian health care facilities. So blame it on the facility.
