For the sake of the health and mental implications, it is important to remind our dearly beloved President what have been said about Ogogoro/Kaikai. Every day he takes up the enormous burden of taking decisions that affect us all - it is important that we are assured he make those decision with clear head. God bless Jonathan and Nigeria.

The OP has gone rabidly crazy

High man dey advice high man.. Choi! The beauty of good liquor in the system I remember when an old man was advising my friends and I in a bar.. Lol.. After drinking like 6 bottles of Kronenburg, the oldman came over to our table and started telling us about the dangers of alcohol and why we should face our studies and not the bottles.. Lwkmd.. We still bought him two extra bottles which he accepted happily and called us "correct guys"..

EGift, do you know who you are challenging?? He's a Knight of my church (Anglican Communion), so he might probably know this before.

@ op If you are really good at reading the bible then you'll know that the bible commands that we should show respect to our leaders

Fernandez01: @ op If you are really good at reading the bible then you'll know that the bible commands that we should show respect to our leaders

Even if they have a drinking problem that affects their ability to effectively govern?

kingoflag: Even if they have a drinking problem that affects their ability to effectively govern?

Jonathan has no drinking problem

Fernandez01:



Jonathan has no drinking problem

and who told you that?

kingoflag: Even if they have a drinking problem that affects their ability to effectively govern?

This lier has come again.

Fernandez01: @ op If you are really good at reading the bible then you'll know that the bible commands that we should show respect to our leaders

So you will not want us to help the President overcome his Drinking Problem? Fernandez01, do you hate our beloved President that much? May God forgive you.

Abeg Mr. President leave the Ogogoro bottle alone, it is a transparent spirit that is only reserved to those that want to drown their sorry. For the meantime, we thank the Almighty that Nigeria do not have a "Nuclear Football".

He is the only one holding a cup of brandy.....shows how much he is at home with kai Kai

Drink responsibly..

A question makes me a liar? What of when I make a statement?

kingoflag: A question makes me a liar? What of when I make a statement?

You have been discredited on another thread as a liar, so, keep your face off NairaLand.

Jonathan makes drinking a sin because each time, he gets drunk and lands in a foreign hospital. Imaging a white doctor getting home late and saying to his wife ' sorry darling, a drunk African president was brought in a state of comma'

gurnam: He is the only one holding a cup of brandy.....shows how much he is at home with kai Kai

He is a Pro.

With G7 Governors on board and the expansion of the APC, Nigerians will soon be relieved of this Ogogoro Presidency!

Hip! Hip!! Hurray!!!

Ogogoro + sapele water = very risky

I wonder if you feel any thing like a BRAIN in your skull. I have never seen you construct a flawless sentence on this forum before and your POST is aimed at down grading the PRESIDENT.

Like seriously, you should face your books because your English is so pathetic and deteriorating day after day.



I keep correcting you on almost all your POSTS and COMMENTS.


Product of a FAILED EDUCATION system, but am scared you ate your school fees.

Waiting for your to make a flawless post.

I never knew I have gotten so famous for you to abandon everything to keep tagging along. By the way, let me take a few second to correct some of the grammatical blunders littered in your comment:

1. Capitalizing words within a written sentence in English for the sake of emphases is grammatically incorrect. It is very informal. You only use those when chit-chatting with your peers.
2. Your paragraphing is wrong. Correct that next time.
3. You utilize colloquial English in your supposedly effort to highlight my "errors", do I resemble your benighted girlfriend. (Example: See the bold in green).
4. The use of "face your books" and "your English" is very miserable of you. For your information, the English language does not "deteriorate". Except if you are referring to the leftover meal in your kitchen.

So kid, next time you want to come off as subversive in English Language, try not to stifle us with those avoidable blunders. Do have yourself a nice evening.

Do you know what is paragraphing?
Concerning the issue of 'face your book' when last did your read a journal or an article because you are so stale and need to refresh your memory, that's only if there's anything to refresh there.

It is a shame, if you should tell me that "your English" used in that sentence was wrong. You tried so hard to point out some imaginary flaws but sorry son, you failed. I'll see you on another thread.

Take your spelling class well son

You are too proud to learn. I have fulfill my fare share of social responsibility to deliver you.

1. If you do not see the discrepancies in the space (paragraphs) of your post, then I have no reason discussing with you.
2. Again "face your book" is a wrong use of English, Mr. Akereconfi. At the level of your cognitive pedigree with the English Language, "face your studies" is more appropriate.
3. Also "your English" is wrong Prof. Akereconfi (I do not own the language). Now replace it with "your use of English", you will be glad at how sensible you sound.

Finally, if your job description among the 40-Laptop Gang is to portray me unlettered, tell whoever that employ you that I find it insulting that a Chump like you is sent on such morbid quest. Have a lovely day.

It marvels me that the grammatical errors I pointed out to you, you have nothing not say about it. I guess you know your flaws were crystal clear so you deemed it right not to talk about it but accept it in good faith that you were wrong.


I point out to you, context where the aforementioned points you pointed out are used.
