A relationship expert, who has been married for more than 10 years has shared the reason why he has never cheated on his wife.
The man who said that he has never cheated on his wife for 12 years now of marriage in a video making rounds online, noted that his ability to do this is not because he is perfect.

In his words;
“I have been married for 12 years and I never cheated on my wife. Not because I am a robot, I am a human being and I face the temptation of cheating everyday. Like everyday I want to cheat on my wife but I don’t because of the word of God says ‘do until others as you want to be done to you’ and I would not like to be cheated.”

Famous professional footballer, Lionel Messi has apologized for his unauthorized trip to Saudi Arabia, which resulted in a two-week suspension from Paris Saint-Germain.
The Argentine footballer was said to have taken a trip to Saudi Africa with his family following PSG’s home defeat by Lorient last Sunday without the club’s permission.
PSG boss Christophe Galter had told his team that they would be free on Monday and Tuesday if they won the match on Sunday, but if they lost, they would have to report to training on Monday. Sadly, PSG was defeated 3-1.
Despite the humiliating defeat, Messi made the trip and was suspended for two weeks as punishment. He will not be paid and will be unable to attend training sessions for the duration of the suspension.
Messi finally broke his silence in a video posted on his Instagram Story on Friday, saying he assumed he could go on the trip because he had been given that time off in “previous weeks.”
“I wanted to make this video because of what is happening,”the World Cup-winning captain said. “First of all, obviously I apologise to my teammates and the club. I honestly thought that we were going to have free time after the game as it had been happening in the previous weeks.
“I had organised this trip to [Saudi] Arabia that I had previously canceled and I couldn’t [this time around]. I repeat, I apologise for what I did and I’m waiting for what the club decides.”
The 35-year-old football star, who is also a tourism ambassador for Saudi Arabia, is expected to miss matches against Troyes on Sunday and AC Ajaccio on May 13.
“I thought we were going to have a day off after the game as always. I had this trip organized and I couldn't cancel it. I had already canceled it before…”.

A Nigerian woman has taken to social media to explain how she came to learn that her husband has a secret second family.
The woman recounted her husband’s practice of painstakingly dividing his pay into many envelopes labeled for various uses when she shared her concern on a relationship platform.
She claimed to have discovered an additional envelope that her husband had unintentionally overlooked and when she picked it up and saw that it was heavier and had a distinct appearance from the others.
She read the inscription on it and noticed that it was addressed to his ‘love’ asking her to take care of their kids and when the husband finally began looking for it, sweating profusely while at it, she asked him what he was looking for and he lied.
She wrote;
“Hello Sir. I have a problem. Help me decide. When my husband takes his salary, he separates the money into envelopes, meals, rent, lunch, pocket money and everything. Last time he dropped an envelope on the floor. I picked this up in the bedroom, it was very different from the other envelopes, I couldn’t resist opening it to see inside.
Big surprise , a large amount of money, much more than he gives here, accompanied by “I love you my love, take good care of the children”. In shock I put the envelope in a safe place. He came back a moment later, all panicked and started rummaging around the room. I ask him, he tells me that he has lost a very important USB key which contains his files. He was sweating like someone with diarrhea.
He’s been in a pitiful state for 3 days, but unable to tell me what he’s really looking for. Sir , I ask myself a lot of questions, should I keep the envelope or give it to him and confront him? What would you have done in my place?”
Nigerian actress, Mellisa Osagie has discussed her opinions on marriage and having children outside of wedlock.
Osagie, who shared this in an interview with Saturday Beats, stated that she favors friendship above marriage and revealed that she almost got married but decided against it.
The actress said;
“I do not believe in the idea of marriage. I was almost married but I called it off. I believe in the idea of companionship. If one is compatible with one’s partner, one does not need a ring to show that one is committed. It does not validate marriage.”
She also expressed her opinion on the recommendation for older women to bear children outside of marriage when a union is not probable.
She added;
“Marriage as an institution has to do with bearing kids. Marriage or no marriage, it is very important for one to have a child. If not for now, at least for old age; even if it has to be done through surrogacy.”

A Nigerian man has taken to social media to share how his cousin was heartbroken by his fiancée a week before their wedding for getting a small house for them to live in.
The woman reportedly called off the nuptials, disregarding the fact that she and her partner had been dating for ten years.
Her fiancé brought her to the house, but she objected that it was too tiny for her and demanded a bigger one, threatening to call off the wedding if he would not comply.

The divorce case taken before Grade A Customary Court by a lady named Sola Adesina against her husband Segun Adesina, who she said was a liar and full of pretense, has been postponed.
She pleaded with the judge to give her custody of their one and only child if Sola’s request was granted.
When the allegations were read to the husband, Segun, he immediately entered a plea of not guilty.
Sola said;
“My lord, my husband has lost the honour and respect I have for him. He is a wolf in a sheep’s clothing. I took him to be a responsible person when we met. Though he was not financially buoyant, I was ready to go all the way with him, but he disappointed me with his dishonest acts. I made provision for our introduction ceremony after we met and dated for some months. I took a loan of N50,000 and I handed this over to him to meet the needs of our introduction ceremony. He paid my bride pride out of this, but it was returned to him. I began to see another side of my husband shortly after we started living together as a couple. Segun pretends to be an angel, but he is a devil in disguise. He frustrates me and makes my life miserable because he never ceases to find faults in all that I do. The most embarrassing of it all is his lying habit which presents him as an unreliable and non-trustworthy person before our friends and associates. My husband has brought a dent on our image, while I take everything he says these days with a pinch of salt. Segun’s irresponsible behaviour has obviously marred our relationship and I am not willing to go any further in it.
I, therefore, implore the court to rule that we go our separate ways.”
The case was postponed till May 26 by the court president, Mrs. S.M. Akintayo.

Do not take advantage of anyone because you are in a place of power. Dear Nigerian doctors, nurses and caregivers, do not sacrifice your licenses for anyone let alone Nigerian politicians who deliberately neglect our health care system back home but can rush overseas to be treated by the same Nigerians clinicians they treat poorly back home. As for the ex senator I hope they can extend his imprisonment. This same man was given millions if not billions to build hospitals back home in his state, he embezzled it. As for their daughter, I wish her well and good health. If she was better advised I’m sure she would have made a different choice. If you speak up and ask for help, I’m sure someone somewhere would have helped her out. Best of luck young woman and I pray God send you help and healing.”

Twitter relationship adviser, John Doe has stated that if a guy marries a woman who can’t cook, he might not survive past the age of 60.
According to John Doe, the type of food a person eats starting at the age of 40 affects how long they live.
John Doe advised all women to develop healthy meal preparation plans and portion-control skills for their husbands.
