Actually, under the Nigerian Criminal Code Act a husband cannot rape his wife. This is because 'rape' is defined as follows under the Act: "Section 357. Definition of rape Any person who has unlawful carnal knowledge of a woman or girl, without her consent, or with her consent, if the consent is obtained by force or by means of threats or intimidation of any kind, or by fear of harm, or by means of false and fraudulent representation as to the nature of the act, or, in the case of a married woman, by personating her husband, is guilty of an offence which is called rape". The operative phrase here is "Unlawful Carnal Knowledge". Section 6 of the Act defines Unlawful carnal Knowledge as follows: "Section 6. Carnal knowledge When the term "carnal knowledge" or the term "carnal connection" is used in defining an offence, it is implied that the offence, so far as regards that element of it, is complete upon penetration. "Unlawful carnal knowledge" means carnal connection which takes place otherwise than between husband and wife". So taking the definition of Section 6, any sexual intercourse between a husband and wife does not qualify as 'Unlawful carnal knowledge' and hence lacks the important element that defines rape. 1 Like |

Candidlady:It's a hotel. Nothing like an hotel. The 'H' is not silent. H is only silent in words like heir, honest, hour, honour. So for any other word that starts with H, the H must be pronounced. Although some tribes in Nigeria find it hard pronouncing H, that does not mean you should write the way you pronounce. 2 Likes |

ashawopikin:You cannot buy a property without the land. When you buy a house, you are issued a deed of lease or deed of assignment of the land. Under the law, the owner of the land owns anything on the land, so it is the land that you buy. 1 Like |

aljpimp:Chamdor is not wine. Go to shoprite and pick up a bottle of Chamdor and read what is written on it. It’s written clearly on the bottle ‘Sparkling Grape’ and further written ‘Alcohol free sparkling grape juice’. There is no where wine is written on a Chamdor bottle. 2 Likes |

So is Henry saying that we can win AFCON with Rhor in charge? Can anyone honestly say that we have a chance of winning AFCON with Rhor? It's better we get rid of Rhor now and allow the new coach to use the AFCON to start building his team for the World Cup qualifiers. The fact is that we cannot win AFCON with or without Rhor, so let's concentrate on the world cup qualifiers and give our self a fighting chance of qualifying by getting a new coach now. I hope Henry Nwosu knows that the world cup qualifier comes up 2 months after the AFCON, so would he rather have Rhor sacked after mes at AFCON? 1 Like |

Yes, it can build a standard 2 bedroom. Just do the following: One toilet and one bathroom shared by the 2 rooms One kitchen, one sitting room No concrete parapet, just use flash boards Use PVC ceiling Use Cameroon Zink not long span aluminium (coloured cameroon zinc is beautiful) Use direct labour Use cheap China tiles. Avoid full wall tiling. 3/4 height tiling is okay for bathroom/toilet, while 1/2 height is okay for kitchen. With an additional N1m you can have a 3 bedroom house with two toilets and bathrooms 3 Likes |

This information is false. Jonathan attended the site of the Iyanya bomb blast the same day the blast happened. Also Obj visited the site of the Ikeja bomb blast the next day. So all these 48 hours stories are fake and a fabrication from people wanting to make news.

Cesclxg:So English people call Hate ‘ate’? Like seriously, you are saying that English people say I ate you instead of I hate you? |
![]() |
Abouwaza: Please it is "a hate speech" not "an hate speech". The 'H' in hate is not silent. You guys should stop writing English in your accent. There is nothing like an house, an host, an heaven, an horse, an harbor etc. You say an honest or an honour because the 'H' in both words is silent. I do recognize that some Nigerian have a problem with pronouncing 'H' when it comes before a vowel, but that is not why we should be writing the way we pronounce. 1 Like |
