Ngige would've been the best element for the game if he had sprung from a reasonable party but this their apc bullshit is a real fiasco. You can't bring mgbati/tifnubu's influence down to Igbo land and still mexpect victory.

PoliticsEXPOSED! Former President, 8 Governors, Senators To Dump Jonathan For APC by 2ruink(op): 12:18pm On Sep 26, 2013
As the battle for Nigeria’s Presidency in 2015 begin to get hot, following the high powered political moves in the last few weeks, some birds of equal plumage have started congregating in the dead of the night to take a critical look at how to defeat President Goodluck Jonathan with the help of the APC.
The former President is not happy with recent statements credited to Tony Anenih, PDP Boad of Trustee Chairman that Presidnet Jonathan should be given an automatic ticket to contest as PDP’s presidential flag bearer in the 2015 election as against the usual Primary election.
He meet secretly with reps of eight PDP governors –– 4 from North-West, 2 from North-Central, 1 from North-East and 1 from South-South –– on Saturday and it was agreed that they should discuss with key figures in the main opposition party, APC, and work out terms, moving forward.
The former President, a source told OluFamous.Com, is a very influential politician and has vowed to ensure that a Northern candidate becomes the President in 2015. The Senate leadership is loyal to him.
Speaking with The Nation on the latest development, a top insider said: “Based on the party structure at Jonathan’s beck and call, it is sure the PDP ticket is up for him to grab. So, it is better for governors who are not on the President’s side to look elsewhere for platform.”
“These governors want to present a credible candidate against PDP. You will see that PDP is gradually taking a regional party line with recent events with the President leaning mostly on the South-East and the South-South.“They don’t want to remain in PDP because it’s very glaring the president will win PDP primaries, but the general election he can’t win with the present mood of the nation.”

The summary is that i keep questioning the prognoses of these tenderfeet getting civilized if all they can do is flinging expletives at those who are light years ahead of them.

BusinessRe: Guys, Let's Talk Business by 2ruink(op):
Hi friends! I think I owe you guys some explanation over my long absence from the thread but that brings to view the fact that this body is not about any particular individual. As much as I hold deep the passion to work towards promoting our common goal, it is equally a duty to each and every one of us to give life to that which we believe in. pacemaker has done a lot to prove this, 2sexy, stpat1, mabelly etc are also doing great from other angles. So far, the ideas shared here are the miracle some of us need to succeed in business and yet, the importance of holding a meeting offline to further brainstorm can not be over emphasized as this will enable us arrive at a defined proposal.

I take greater part of the blame for the delayed meeting. Yes! It’s partly my fault because I have obviously failed in my bid to organize the first meeting. Certain things cropped up to drain my effort. I kept mute because I had hoped to fix things in no time and to avoid derailing the thread with personal issues. But owing to the fact that these issues have glued much longer than I expected, I’m requesting that you guys make out time to organize this meeting. It’s very important. We are all together in it but kindly forgive my shortcoming as I’m passing through a terrible challenge right now. I’ll always do my best to contribute my quota no matter how little. We must make a difference in this country economically, because we can.
Thanks and God bless!

PoliticsRe: How and Why Gowon Ceded Bakassi To Cameroon!! by 2ruink(m): 3:11pm On Dec 03, 2012
odum desmond: Its an error of fundaamenal nature, borne out of misconception and all forms of perorations and platitudinal outbursts bypeople who know more of sentiments that real facts and law that led to the Bakassi cession. Yes, politically, Gowon signed various agreements with Cameroon prior to and after the war, but did any of them cause the cession of Bakassi to Camerroon? Hell no!!! I was opportuned to do a 140 page research on the Bakassi imbroglio and came to the inexorable conclusion that Bakassi Peninsula was never a Nigerian territory. It is a complex web of rules of international law and colonial alienation following the Berlin conference of 1884-5 where African territory was divided between colonial powers, Germany got Cameroon while Britain got Nigeria. But around 1913, in a bid to define the boundaries of both nation,Germany and Britain decided that the boundary should follow a particular thalweg and measured using some cordinates which effectively put Bakassi into Cameroon. In fact a clause in the Anglo German treaty said that despite the vagaries of River Akpayafe/ Akwayafe water, "......it is hereby agreed that the territory now known as Bakassi peninsula shall be a German territory". Was Gowon born by then. He just politically signed/ executed an agreement that was made even before he was born which effect led to Biafran surrender!!!
Be sure of what you post here oga. Is it Cameroon to Germany or France?

LiteratureRe: Criticize My Story Constructively. by 2ruink(op): 7:53pm On Nov 12, 2012
Efemena_xy: I'll concentrate on your first paragraph:

~ Avoid repetition. In the paragraph below, you've used the word morning several times. Over use of a word can be distracting to your reader and it reduces the intended impact on your audience. Trying using alternative words with similar meaning. This would make the content of your write-up richer and would also help increase your vocabulary.



So you might want to re-write the sentence above to read:

"Today, for the first time in five months, I woke up without a man lying beside me..." Or, "This morning, for the first time in five months, I woke up without a man lying beside me... "

~ It's a good thing to distinguish between your character's thoughts and their spoken speech. Use Italics for thoughts and quotation / speech marks for spoken words. So, applying this to your first paragraph:




~ You might want to modify the following sentences below, to improve readability:

** to "... The room is dark, stinky and I feel as though I'm suffocating..."

Note also, you don't say: It is like I'm suffocating. Rather, you say: I feel as though I'm suffocating.

** Change:



to:

"...Although it is still pretty dark over here... "


I think if you apply the suggested changes outlined here to your subsequent paragraphs, you'll find that these would greatly improve your readers experiences here with your story.

All the same, you've got a nice story that promises to be captivating with just a bit more effort and tweaks from your end. Hope these help and all the best!
Thanks dearly, I found those outlines so helpful. Will do the editing pretty soon. tnx again!
