Why can't the church that collects millions n daily offering give her mere 200,000 naira?Mountain of fire or mountain of hell,whatever it called.

Why are people harping on her having 5 kids in 4 years? The opening post says she has at least one set of twins! In case you don't know, there are 21-year-olds in your "lands paved with gold" too that are on welfare with their 4 or 5 kids. I once met a 28-year old American girl with 8 kids! 8 kids! No daddy at home. No idea how many different daddies!

And some are offended because she is a Nigerian from wherever state who went to the former capital and the current economic capital, to get assistance. So, she didn't go to her governor. Like someone mentioned, most of the NGOs are in Lagos, amongst other reasons. Even if she were a Kenyan or Rwandan in Lagos, she still deserves any help that can be rendered to her.

I would expect people to be more offended and embarrassed by the desperation and ignorance that drove two African children to their miserable, painful and untimely deaths as airplane stowaways sad cry while trying to seek help from Oyinbo people to save all of Africa's children.

Gbawe I think Nigerians shouldn't take this as a delta people issue only. It should be our business as Nigerians to see that people like this are helped.


Of course we are all Nigerians, but Abuja represents us all collectively as Nigerians, Abuja is the seat of government, Abuja is where they make decisions governing our existence as Nigerians so why Lagos?

Of what relevance are we as Nigerians if needed help doesn't exist in abuja where our collective interests are debated and adjudicated?

b][/b]According to her, she needed N200,000 for garri and melon business and would not leave Lagos until she got the money for the business.

She musnt start in a big way. Shd have asked for a lesser amt,like #100,000, that way,she cld easily get it even by contributn.If given this #200,000 she wld jst spend it n get nothing out of it.

Odozi who brought out her breasts to demonstrate that she still had a child she was nursing,

U need not bring out ur bossoms,so many of us got bossoms too.

[color=#000000][/color] Asked if she would like to be trained in any skill, she said no

She actually has a choice

...and that the father of her children drove her out after she had the fifth child

Guess he was done using u FOC.

The story was that the lady had already been to Abuja and she was directed to come to Lagos. I think this is just synonymous to let's say doing your biometrics in the state you live in but when you want to do your national passport you have to travel to wherever the embassy is located.

When our correspondent approached her, she said, “After confronting serious hardship in my state, I was advised by an official of Human Rights Commission in Delta to go to Human Rights Commission in Abuja. I also went to Police Headquarters and NAPTIP (National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons) in Abuja. They all told me to go to Lagos; they said that is where I could get help.”

Maybe the branch to help this woman is located in Lagos.
Maybe now they will take her seriously now that she has exposed her boobs.

The biometerics logic makes no sense especially since according to the woman herself, she's not from lagos state and even that aside, what's the magistrate court in ikeja got to do with all this? Is the magistrate court the agency's local office in lagos?

It actually makes sense to me.
NAPTIP's office is also located in Ikeja. That's a plausible reason how she found herself in Ikeja. Maybe the court area was more strategic to get the attention she wanted, hence her display at the courts where people would see her.
And true to her intentions, she has gotten the much needed attention to her plight.

Highlight facts and dismiss the reasons why certain things might have happened? Lol. I thought a discourse recognized all ramifications/assumptions and that is what I did. You were able to deduce all 'facts' from one silly article, rotflmao. Don't make me laugh.

The woman was at the Lagos magistrate court in ikeja and not at any agency and that's a fact, but what you spewed all over the place was maybe and speculations that has nothing to do with the story. Do you pass exams with maybe and speculations or with facts.?

Your immediate response to this woman's case was that she didn't seek for help in her village before she went to Lagos. And I provided evidence that she had even gone to Abuja before being advised to go to Lagos thereby trashing your initial biases woefullyyyyy!

Now this is a discussion forum, I have every right to provide assumptions to why she did what she did to support the premise. That is the dynamics of discourse! You'd better sit back and learn.

1. Showe me where I made the village comment.

2. Your assumptions made no sense because according to you, she was sent to some agency but instead she was at the magistrate court in ikeja. You have no clue or any ideas why she went to the court. The court is a magistrate court and not the agency they sent her to. She could have gotten help and better attention from the agency they sent her to instead of the court.

Your speculation made no sense and it was recklessly flawed

My assumptions made perfect sense why she would do something like that. I don't have to reinforce myself again to tell you why or do you insist on redundancy?
Re: Woman Protest In Lagos Over Hunger by ekoileee: 11:03pm On May 22, 2013
When you come back, tell me the meaning of the quote below.


She said if the Governor of Lagos State could give her N200,000, she would start business with it.


So, she accidentally went to the court instead of the agency to demand money from the governor of Lagos state? Is the governor of Lagos state the agency they sent her to?

To your amazement, I too have problems with her utterances. She shouldn't have been ranting about Fashola gimme this, gimme that. I blame it on her educational background and lack of the art of public speaking, lol.

Boringgggggg. You gotta do more than that to annoy me,
There was a general consensus on the thread on why on earth she left her village for Lagos. I think you said Abuja. Either way there's no reason why she can't seek help in Lagos.

What you said was not general consensus, it was a direct accusation and false allegation against me, but instead of apologizing for your error, you are compunding it with more lies.

Are the above reasons why you lied and made false accusations?

Are the above reasons why you manggled up the story and replaced it with your own ignorant and made translation?
