The prices can't keep going up on this scale.They are bound to slow down.In America,property prices have been coming down after a similar boom

In some places it is down as much as 16 percent in less than a year

This is the same team that Newcastle beat 3-2 at White HART Lane.

This represents Arse's best hope of a trophy

Very few blacks there but its quiet and I like a quiet life.

The London property market has gone crazy

I had to get a train going Darlington near the border with Scotland to get there.Honestly the place is fantastic,just that it is too cold

That can't be in London.Up in Barwick,someone said he found a 3 bedroom house with garage,front lawn and back garden for £140,000

Obviously that is if u want to live in Barwick

If u don't think celebs should "give back" using the logic that they earned their wealth in the first place,then same appplies to most wealthy people.Why should anyone "give back" when they earned the money in the first place for services offered.

The reason why people pick on celebs is that their is,rightly or wrongly,the impression that they are overpaid for their services.Why for instance should a footballer earn 25 million naira a week for playing football.?

Hence the thinking is,that they more than anyoneelse,apart from wealth inheritors,have a unique responsibility to give back to the community

@my2cents

This one u are busy agreeing with Seun,na proper politics u dey play so

Are u sure they can even make 3rd place?

u want action?What about winning the Champions League even once.Win that then we can talk

What is in your trophy cabinet?

Don't buy a house in the UK.If u think that price appreciation will go on endlessly ,u are having a laugh

2-1 na trashing?

I wonder what u will call 6-1

2-0 toSpurs

Keep remembering sunday,your only chance of a trophy this season is rapidly disapearing

1-0 to Spurs

@mukina2

Go and watch your team get slaughtered by Spurs

If we took away Northern Nigeria,the rest of Nigeria will do quite well.Northern Nigeria is a financial burden on the rest of Nigeria.They contribute barely anything to the national cake and function as a parasite

This is not about tribalism but an honest reflection of Nigeria.

If u remember,the British got the idea to amalgamate the Southern and Northern Protectorates in order to subsidise the North.They had difficulty financing Northern Nigeria and so thought they could alleviate the problem by uniting the two and using resources from Southern Nigeria.

This has gone on for too long.

Easyy:
The main source of revenue in Nigeria is oil.

Tell me what's been happening with Nigerian oil and the politics thereof. Do you know what Shell is doing in the oil rich regions of Nigeria?

U see this is what I refered to earlier in respect of which u acussed me of diversion .The responsibility for any misuse of Nigerian oil lies squarely with the Nigerian Govt and not with Shell or other oil coys.

Their is a simple way of explaining what happens in the Niger-Delta,Nigeria does not have the expertise or resources to exploit oil,hence we contract that out to the likes of Shell,who invest in this and in return they get a cut of the revenue from oil sales.

How Nigeria choses to spend its oil revenues is not Shell's responsibility.The problem is that Nigeria has historically chosen to spend the revenue from oil across the country,instead of concentrating on where the oil came from in the first place.What this has to do with Shell I have no idea.

If this is what u call milking of Nigeria,then it is completely baseless.Unless u can device a way we Nigerians can extract oil without outside help so that we can keep all the revenue to ourselves.

This is the standard way oil coys operate even in the Western world.They extract the oil,paying the Govt its share and keeping the rest,how a Govt chooses to spend its oil proceeds is not the oil coys perogative.

Remember what happened to Ayotunde David Obanubi-http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/cms/145_584.htm

For more u can google Ayotunde Obanubi

I have forwaded your names to Iranian mullahs for a fatwa to be passed against you lot.How dare u blaspheme a religion of peace

@egoldman

I just explained to you that the consolidation only happened less than 2 years ago so it is not yet time to declare that we are safe from bank failures.Bank failures will always happen.

Being able to monitor your account online won't protect it from the erosional effects of double digit inflation

@Eassy

I would not think that it is a diversion from the issue to point out that Western bizs are not neccessarily the irredemable evil contributors to this thread have made them out to be

Africa suffers from a chronic lack of investment from the outside world and needs even more Western bizs than we have at the moment.

Those instances of Western exploitation are far too few and insignificant to be hyperventillating about.

Westerners are not milking us as u suggest.Using Nigeria as a case study,can u explain to me how Westerners are milking Nigeria

The biggest obstacle to Obama's bid is not actually from Whites but from African Americans.Obama has greater levels of support among White Americans than African Americans.

Obama is not seen as as a proper African American since he is half white and half Kenyan

According to the last ABCNews/Washington Post Poll,Obama enjoys lower levels of support from Blacks than Hillary Clinton,26 points difference

Why would u be asking your kid sis whether she wears boxers

@iice
He is going to give himself a hand massage with that image in his head

Do u know how many Nigerian girls that have benefited from the financial largesse of Nigerian sports men

Nigeria has a lot sports people but I don't think they are raking in money on the scale people think

Another thing is that sports is a funny sort of profession in that your career is of a very short duration

Nothing better than sex with 4 Play

I don't think that there are that many rich Nigerian sports people

Left all the crazy people on another thread to join u guys

Now,who wants to piss me off

@Gridlock

That is progress
