OrlandoOwoh: The DHQ always claim no town is lost, only for them to turn round to say the towns have been regained. I need a reliable source from BBC, Aljazeera or CNN. Thank you very much!!! Exactly what I wanted to say, CNN and BBC news said we lose towns, but military will not admit they lost it. But military will only talk when towns are gained. Please how can you gain what you didn't lose...... Military HQ are filtering info. Shey people said the mubi story was a lie. Now you have heard the military confess to a retreat. Problem is Nairalanders and most Nigerians have the issue of selective listening. You choose to believe only good news because no wants to hear bitter things. they call media liars. If BBC and media can lie then military are not above lying either. Because if you look at it, the military have more to lose telling the truth. 2 Likes 1 Share |

But the Nigerian army as well are just saying things. No proof. They have told us they killed shekau before but he is still alive. How are you sure the media isn't doing the same lies for the Nigerian army? At least we are seeing proof from boko haram via wuse 2 bombings, and both nyanya bombings. The Nigerian army has also admitted that soldiers have left and all of that. 1 Like |

People here justifying them having a side guy with the excuse guys are irresponsible. The funny thing is that you haven't seen whether he is cheating or not but you decided to assume and get a side person........ Look at your life, is that trust? What if he isn't really cheating? Ypy just cheated yourself by assumptions. E dey kill oh. And please if you feel someone is irresponsible then break up and find another instead of storing another for a potential not yet confirmed, heard or seen mess up that you made in your head.

Oh please! Russia living on past glory and illegal arms deals with war torn countries. We all know the Russian army has suffered from obsolete infrastructure from the soviet union with little advancements since its crumble. One can only say they have size but don't pack that much of a punch. Thus the reason Putin doesn't want to get on the bad side of China because they are very innovative in the military technology. Putin flexing expired muscles to the US isn't a problem, he is just trying to stike fear and that wouldn't work. 1 Like |
Sports / Re: Mikel To Stay On At Chelsea To Bag British Passport by 2chains1(m): 1:37am On Jul 30, 2014 |
The guy has been there for almost 8yrs. If he just has to stay till October to gain the citizenship, considering there is another transfer window in January and he is currently earning over 70k pounds a week then I see no stupidity in this decision. Besides Nigeria is spoiling with boko haram kidnappings and so on, will you now blame him to seek plan B in another citizenship? He didn't say he will throw away his Nigerian passport. For the people saying he has money and can go anywhere yes he can but no matter his money he will still have to wait for visas and can't stay more than 6months in the country. But with the British passport, he can visit about 170 countries without using a visa. (Meanwhile just 49 with a Nigerian passport). That being said.......... He isn't still a good player 3 Likes |

Music/Radio / Re: Sorry, Slim, But Lil Wayne Is The Greatest MC Alive by 2chains1(m): 2:36pm On Jul 21, 2014 |
bankydd: With the release ofThe Marshall Mathers LP 2, Eminem declares himself a Rap God, featuring the King of Rap (Kendrick Lamar) on his album, and hoping to finally pass the torch ofthe rap game to a worthy predecessor. One can debate back and forth over whether Em or Jay-Z is the greatest rapper alive, but, rather than waste any time debating semantics between these two self-proclaimed "God MCs," I'm declaring the greatest MC in the history of the game to be neither Em nor Jay. History will show that the existence of a God MC is irrelevant so long as there's life on Mars.People Love the Underdog...Eminem has complicated rhymes and rhythms. There's no denying the man knows how to put together a sentenceand spit it -- if complicated equated to musicality, however, why is"Yesterday" the most covered song in pop culture and not "Crazy Train," the fast-paced and just as classic track from Ozzy Osbourne? There's nodenying Eminem is a legendary MC anda great artist, but, while he may have seemed like the innovator in real time, looking back at his archive, the majority of his work doesn't hold up. His cartoony beats, dated pop culture references (who are Moby and Carson Daly, and why is Em mad at them?) and comical lyrics mostly fall flat. Eminem's problem is he blew up too quick -- so he never really had a chanceto mature as an artist.Lil Wayne, on the other hand, came up in the shadows of Juvenile, Manny Fresh, and Baby. Whereas Em was Aftermath's LeBron James, Weezy started as Cash Money's Allen Iverson. At best, Duane Carter was a sidekick, destined to VH1 reality and dating shows. Slim Shady is Vanilla Ice with credibility and skill; he's the Yankees, and he was supposed to win. Lil Wayne is a blinged out Southern rapper like any other. There's no reason he should still be relevant, but he is. All Marshall Mathers had to do in order to stick out was show up; Weezy had to work for his -- and that's real hip-hop.Less Is More...The career-defining single for each of emcee is Eminem's "Lose Yourself," an ode to the struggle of becoming a rapper, and Lil Wayne's "Lollipop," a song about sex. Both songs are approximately five minutes long, and Em fits about 50 percent more words in his song. Weezy's lyrics are much more repetitive, so Shady is essentially working twice as hard to produce the same effect. This certainly proves Marshall is talented and hard-working. It proves he can spit complicated rhyme patterns. But is that what makes a great song? By accomplishing the same thing (a number 1 single) with half the words, Tunechi proves he has a better grasp of lyricism than the Rap God.While word count seems like a wacky way to compare two lyricists, if we're calling someone the greatest rapper alive, it's an important consideration. Lyrics are words, and, as Twitter has proven time and time again, the less words you use to express a thought, the more appealing it is. Being able to express a concise thought on a subject is the mark of a genius, and doing it melodically is a sign of a musical prodigy -- both of which describe Lil Wayne.Content Marketing...Where most people adamantly take a stance on Eminem being great while LilWayne is "garbage" lies in Shady's subject matter -- "Em raps about reallife and real problems while Wayne just talks about money, drugs, and sex." I understand what is being said, but Marshall's lyrics focus on himself while Weezy's run the gamut of subject matter, from destruction (murder) to creation (sex) to everything in between. While Shady is a master of both horrorcore and emo-rap, Tunechi not only excels at both, but can also touch on a wide variety of subjectsEminem does rap about drugs ("Drug Ballad," anyone?), guns ("Pistol Pistol", and sex ("Superman" just like Lil Wayne, but Mr. Carter is able to touch on one universal subject that Mr. Mathers still struggles with, eveninto his 40s...How to Love. Slim is incapable of writing a love song that Justin Bieber could legitimately pull off. The sign of a truly classic song is in its ability to be covered by artists from different generations, and Lil Wayne's discography will stand the test of time longer than Eminem's because compassion is what truly lasts. Em is incapable of expressing compassion without betraying his image. Weezy can release an entire album of love songs; Shady can't.A Goon to a Goblin...Relatability is an important consideration when determining an artist's "star power," and Eminem is much more relatable than Lil Wayne on the surface. Em is an every man who everyone can relate to on some level, while Tunechi is subtitled in his interviews. Aside from having a recognizable face, Slim dresses, looks, and acts like everyone else on the streets (albeit a bit more amped up). He could be anyone's son, neighbor, father, brother, etc. If you showed up to work looking like Weezy, on the other hand, you're going to be fired, and probably arrested. Lil Wayne is a Martian, and if it weren't for music, he wouldn't fit in anywhere.Unfortunately for Em, star power doesn't equate to being the best MC, and his relatability is only skin deep. People may get angry and want to kill themselves or someone else in their head every so often, but a large portion of his portfolio is angry. Basically, Eminem is a really good battle rapper, which is one of the moreclassical styles of hip-hop. Lil Wayne, however, pushes the sonic boundaries of the game to new levels. Both"Lollipop" and "How to Love" take hip-hop to levels that Shady is incapable of pulling off. Weezy is talented in any musical genre; Marshall Mathers is not.The Real Slim Shady...Unlike the classic debate over 2Pac or Notorious B.I.G. being the greatest MC ever, both Lil Wayne and Eminem are still very much in the game and cranking out hits, with each artist sitting on discographies of over 1000 tracks. As long as Em outlives Wayne (and, unless Weezy shares genes with Keith Richards, it's a definite possibility), Shady will have the last word. He still has a chance to release aunique album that breaks his formulaic approach to music. Eminem could possibly test the boundaries of rap in an unexpected way.That day may never come, however, and until it does, Lil Wayne is the undisputed greatest living MC Your epistle is too long and unattractive (paragraphs) Didn't bother reading. |

To all the people underrating Muller, he is the most consistent player of the WC since the turn of the century.Thomas Müller has scored 10 goals and provided six assists in just 13 World Cup matches. Ronaldo and messi together have not scored that much. No one should call him an average player because there are very few players in the world who have won every single tournament he has played in save for the Euros. |

Lol! Messi is FIFA's child. Remember in 2010 he was given ballon d'or despite sneijder winning 5 trophies and knocking out Barcelona of the UCL as well reaching the WC final that year and being the joint top scorer with 5 goals. At the end messi was given the award and sneijder wasn't even in the top 3 for the ballon d'or. Well sepp Blatter has confessed to liking messi more than ronaldo so therefore sepp Blatter is a messi fanboy. 1 Like |

Education / Re: Most Expensive Universities In Nigeria (2014) by 2chains1(m): 3:59pm On Jul 06, 2014 |
Of course they have to be expensive. It's private. Government schools are cheaper because they are subsidised by the government through funds they get from taxes and other forms of revenue. It's same abroad. International students pay the full unsubsidised rate while domestic students (children of tax payers) pay half or less than half. |

Just carry all ur valuables with you in your carry-on bags. I mean your certificates, school docs and all important docs. Pls hold them in your carry on bags, so if there's any wahala with your luggage, the damage would be less significant and replaceable.
