Awon omode yi nfi iku sere!

This is a rarity!
I've always known Nigerians as a people with phobia for dangerous sports.

Kudos to them,
I will like to see the pictures of Nigerians on mount everest next

If no be the forty thousand dollrs tag, walahi I for do am

Any group of people that hides under the veil of ethnicity and religion to chose their leaders instead of competence are doomed!
Religion or tribe is inconsequential so far, the development that people wants to see is apparent!
I'd rather make sheik makthoum, the sheik of Dubai the president of Nigeria, if he will make Nigeria like Dubai (FYI, many of our brothers, especially from the east are there hustling and they are not complaining about the religion), rather than Good luck Jonathan whose destiny is to make Nigeria , another somalia

My point is this: religion and ethnicity does not matter, in as much as the development we crave is there for all to see !

Reptyle:

...and the OP's handle is "KRENdo" while yours just happens to be "mcKREN" abi? Be there responding to yourself with your multiple IDs. Make Seun catch you you go know how far

Another e-war has started o!
Infact the topic ought to be trashed and the op given a life ban for manipulating news to whip up ethnic intolerance!

This is really sad, sad i say!

Yes to the medicines!
I was on one of those long haul flights and i had a terrible case of Jedi-Jedi (the one that hooks your sacrum vertebrae and makes you, shout at intervals)
I don't even know, which medication to request for and I was ashamed to tell the hostess what was happening to me.

Naso i bone just and just asked for aspirin, she said there is no aspirin, but they have paracetamol.

That was the day i discovered that paracetamol dey cure jedijedi

You all can see, what progressive countries do to scandals!
The other day, our dear president was in Australia, I think, and there was a case of a groping of an hotel worker by a member of the contingent (I suspect our dear president himself), up till now, nothing has been done to bring the culprit to book!
Now tell me, how can we be taken seriously?
How?

According to Alien astronaut theory, this is nothing but a demonstration of an assistance from our neighbours from a distant galaxy.
They were the same visitors that helped the Israelis in the bible to negate the overwhelming horde of enemies with a few number of men.
They render conventional weapons obsolete and just like a fellow alien astronaut theorist mentioned above, they empower their devotees with alien technology, with fantastic capabilities, they ensconce their worshippers in a force field that ricochet bullets back to sender.
For more information about their capabilities, watch Ancient Aliens on History channel

Another empty barrel!
Who does he think he is?
Jesus Christ?

My son, convene a sovereign national conference, and let the people decide, on what term they want this marriage of inconvenience to continue.
Thank you my son and don't forget to put a petroleum refinery in otueke, our village.

We too like enjoyment

Over the past two-plus weeks, more than 78,000 people around the world have applied to be the first people to settle on Mars.

One-minute videos with people explaining why they want to go and why they should be chosen to go have come from more than 120 countries, though the majority have come from the United States and China.

Ultimately, 24-40 people will be chosen by the nonprofit Mars One and begin training in 2015. After seven years of training four of these people will hypothetically leave Earth to be space pioneers, settling on Mars. Every two years after that, four more will follow.

Here are some of the applicants explaining why they want to be part of the first mission to Mars.

Katrina, 24, United States



"I'm an adventurer, an explorer, and I grew up in a sci-fi living household, so I've always dreamed of being an astronaut and being able to explore new planets. I want to go to Mars so I can learn so many amazing things, and share it with Earth to help inspire people to want to continue exploring space and push the boundaries of human knowledge, and what we can achieve.

Eric, 36, China



"Why I want to go to Mars? Because there is an end for the Earth, and human beings need a new place to survive. If I go to Mars, I survive."

Francisco, 32, born in Argentina, living in Mexico.



"The idea of space traveling and discovering new places is fascinating. I'm a candidate because I'm a very courageous guy, I'm quick to learn. I love teamwork, and it's important for humans to be able to co-exist in Mars."

Anders,51, Sweden.



"I often fantasize to just get on board a spaceship and go, to explore the universe. I often get the feeling that I don't belong here, but up there, in space."

Ilona, 23, Finland



"I want to devote my life to knowledge, humanities, and science. I want to contribute to the greater good of humanity, and to tackle scientific discovery, with the itch to seek and to preserve information as my motivator."

Richard, 60, United States



"I'd like to go to Mars because I think it's the explorer's golden ring for the next 25-30 years, and I would like to be a part of that experience."

Paul, 40, Australia

"Why would I leave Earth to go live on another planet, never to return? Birds eating in the forest; beautiful sunset; walking on the beach, warm sand beneath your toes. A thousand experiences I will never have again. I believe that in order to be OK with leaving all that forever, you need to love and cherish all those things and be OK to go anyway, because not going would be the real tragedy."

Marc, 18, United States



"I want to be part of this mission to carry on an ancient human tradition, and that is to explore and to expand our species. I essentially want to serve humanity by becoming part of the next generation of pioneers of knowledge. And a colonization of another planet is the biggest step that humanity has ever taken in that direction, and I want to be part of that."

Vinod, 30, India



I believe that the purpose of humankind is to reach every corner of the universe, to know the truth of our existence, why we are here, who created us, Mars One is a small step toward reaching to the answer, and I want to contribute in this."

Ariel, 27, from China and living in the United States



"Why wouldn't I like to go to Mars? I have been dreaming of a moment like this my entire life. Who wouldn't want to go into space? Space is awesome, and it would be amazing if I could live on Mars."

Andrew, 34, Canada



"I work extremely well with others [as seen in earning the title "Canada's Greatest Know-it-all" on a television series), in any group dynamic. I'm a dedicated space enthusiast [including having worked as a spacecraft systems engineer on 6 Canadian space missions and a PhD from MIT in a related field]."

Victor, 26, United States



"Why do I want to go to Mars? Really, who doesn't? The opportunity to go to space, period, let alone become one of the first settlers on a different planet, that's tremendous."

If you guys think what we are practising in Nigeria, is democrazy, then you are all deluded!
And if you also think, things will get better the way we are going, I'm sorry to say 'you are on a long thing'

For more insight, I advise you all to go and read The 48 Laws Of Power, and you will discover that Nigerian Rulers will continue to run this country for their personal gain till it dies, while feeding the ignorant citizens with hope of a better tomorrow.

About 3years ago, Jonathan came onboard and promised hope and fresh air, but the reality is very painful.
3 years of your life is gone without reaping the benefits of a good government but you can continue to hope that he will become born again before the end of this term and maybe, just maybe you may enjoy what other democracies around the world are enjoying.
If not, maybe if you give him the coveted second term, maybe he might repent and use it to bring down the dividends of democrazy.

Yes, the only thing we enjoy from the government is promise and hope.

They never run out of it.

And the gullible citizens keeps on swallowing it

As for me, anything but this sham, this lootocracy, masquerading as demo crazy!

ngozievergreen: Y did the pastor kill the python in the first place?
* in peter Edochie's voice* 'What was he trying to prove?'

thats how Agulu crocodiles became harmful after the church ppl came and did crusade at the river bank of all places in Agulu and engaged the reptiles in spiritual warfare. Before then, ppl used to wash clothes and keep them on the broad surface of crocodiles before rinsing. Now, if u accidentally meet a crocodile near d river, na God wl save u.
Hope pythons wont start the same tnz in that community

am a christian, and i have gone for missions but the last thing i wl do is to kill a python that didnt do anything to me in sb's community.
The pastors punishment will be to bury d python.

All these our Christian brethren from the east, na wa o!
I'm amazed, really amazed!
No wonder we read recently that kidnappers even conduct prayer programs for successful operation.
Do you people know what Christianity is all about at all?

So you all value the life of an errant python over that of the pastor's children.

Most times, I am alarmed at the intelligence of most posters spewing rubbish on this forum!
A Python is loving, python is harmless, python can't hurt a fly

Where the f.uck did you learn that from?

It may not be poisonous, but its definitely dangerous, if it wraps itself around you, it can crush your bones and swallow you whole, kapish?

Kudos to the pastor for a job well done, idemshi python ko, odeshi python ni
Mtsheeew

Na the pastor, I blame!
Why he no put the dead snake inside pot and cook, make the family take celebrate the deliverance naa

See hypocrites forming ajebo
Who defined what you are calling table manners?
Its people like una go dey take fork dey chop eba

Make una leave mata jare
When oyinbo do something, naa sophistication, but when your own people do something, naa bush

My Nigeria has truly gone to the dogs!
How did we get here?
This situation is getting pathetic by the day, imagine a common criminal threatening to destabilize the country because he might not have his way?
Walahi!
I tire for this government o!

Osalobua
Fear dey catch me o!
Hope my Nigerian bank account is safe?
Jisos

With all the Van damme films I watched while growing up, I had wanted to join the army, if my mama had not frustrated my plans!
Anyway, thanks to her, I would have planned a coup with the way uncle Jonah, is running the ship

To all the prospective zombies, shunn to you and don't forget that gallantry is the surest way to the grave o!
Just kidding!

Fhemmmy:

And you get all this info from her interview?

No!
From the previous stories naa

What's her problem sef?
Why she dey deny her man?
And push him into the arms of Stella?
Someone with her intelligence should know that sex should never be used as a weapon in marriage!
This is the basic law of marriage!

Nothing new naa!
Qatar airways also show nollywood movies!
The amazing thing was the pounded they serve me, the last time I travelled with them
Emirates, I mean.

Its either the 40 man lappie squad has hijacked this thread or the brain of an average Nigerian posting here, is below that of a chimp that can do anything to belong!
I sincerely hope the former is the case rather than the later!

I weep for my country, if these drones are the best brain we have!
Imagine the dimw.its here, hailing this disgraceful exposure!
Our national security outsourced to Israel!
I'm also sure its without senate approval!
If this is not an impeachable offence, I wonder what is!
Shame!

JTF or MTF! Or whatever you call yourself, you are a disgrace, if you think you can carry out genocide in this age of social media and get away with it
OK, a soldier was killed and the response is to wipe out a whole community?
I wouldn't be surprised If the claim of boko haram and the shooting of RPGs is untrue!
I know very soon, our brothers from the east will flood this thread congratulating the soldiers on a job well done, and at the same time they will be crying against genocide and injustices going on against them, you all should know that yesterday, it was ODI, today, it is BAGA, tomorrow, it may be ABA!
I sincerely hope you will still congratulate the soldiers that will wipe out your community all in the name of fighting kidnappers that are taking potshots at them!

Jisos
Looks like a dude without the hair

Where is that pastor transforming into a jet gif when you when you need it

Oga sleeping Jona!
I hail o
I love the way you always talk your way out of people's expectation of you
Imagine, shifting the goal post again?
Why not start the moon race now? it will cost less than 5billion dollars.
A private company is looking for people to send to mars to start a colony there on a one way ticket, the estimated cost of the entire project is 6 billion dollars.
The money you and your cronies are misappropriating per year is in multiples of these figures.
So why not do the unusual thing and start this project now, instead of waiting for the next generation of leaders!
Mtsheew"

This is one of the situations where I actually appreciate extra judicial execution.
I wonder why those mopol let them live

Good luck!
