a1solution: Before u approach a lady raise ur manhood up fly your shirt and use ur belt to hold it.The pressure of the belt will calm it down, only for it to reassert itself again bringing you back to square 1 as you won't be able to perform your manouevre if this happens in front of the girl. I think I know too much about this matter ![]() |
Bigcake: Look for rubberband and tie d 'Damn Ting' to ur lap. (2) U have to decide who rules n controls d body, either u or d Ogar below d belt. (3) wenever u want to talk to a girl, put ur right hand inside ur trousier pocket and re-channel d 'Damn Ting' into a direction dat will not be obvious for d girl to see it strength.Good advice but I'm not sure about the re-channeling bit. It won't matter where you channel it to, the protrusion will still be apparent to the naked eye. Being a man is not easy, ladies don't have to cope with the social implications of possessing an independent minded trouser snake. |
Why not use strong sellotape to strap it down anytime you go out? Maybe, if you see a girl you want to approach, quickly head to the loo, take out your sellotape and tape down that untamed beast of yours. It should help. |
Lilimax: Shatttaap! Keep your crappy seeded brown wholemeal bread to yourself. We are eating Agege Bread and we are still living.Are you sure? Look at the high mortality rates in this country with people dying through ''mysterious'' illness, partly on account of food like Agege bread in a country with abject food safety monitoring. |
The projection that the size of Nigeria's economy will be larger than South Africa's in a few years is sound. It's funny seeing a motley of ignoramuses claiming this is inconceivable. Of course, the quality of Nigeria's economic development is poor compared to RSA's; per capita income and living standards are much lower. However, it's the same way China has a larger economy than Japan due to population though living standards in China is awful compared to Japan. The way GDP works is quite simple: A family of 10 with annual income of N2m is deemed ''richer'' than a family of 4 with income of N1.8m. You can see, however, living standards will be better in the latter than the former. Nigeria has more than double RSA's population so just to match their average income, we should have more than double their GDP. Our GDP will surpass theirs soon, highly probable, but we are a long way from matching their standard of living. |
[quote author=Sunny_bobo]Be honest, how old were you when IBB and Abacha ruled? From the comments you made above, it's obvious you weren't even in secondary school then. How can you compare the level of development now to that era? The worst democracy is still better than the best military regime.[/quote]You will realise that a lot of the posters are very young or their minds are playing tricks on them. To have people praising the Abacha era, I remember spontaneous celebation and unbridled joy when Abacha died. Look at the following ignorant post: Actionleap: Do you know that the best brains were running the economy for Sani Abacha when all the Western powers turned their back on Abacha? Prof. Sam Aluko was the brain behind the strong economy we had then. The dollar was N22 to $1! How did we get to this sorry state just between 1999 and 2010, the Naira exchanges for the dollar at 160 to 1! Shame on all the successive govt and their western world collaborators (IMF, World Bank, etc)This person doesn't even realise that you couldn't exchange at the official rate of N22 to $1 unless you were highly connected. The value of the Naira was falling rapidly during the Abacha era reaching around N86 to $1 in the black market. |
babseg: If this doesn't make fp, i will have to believe that there is something going on btw Seun and Tonto DikehThere is definitely something between Seun and Tontoh |
The study involved 330 females between the ages 18 and 35, out of which 50 were asked to not wear bras. They all volunteered to have their anatomies measured and examined for any changes to orientation using a slide rule and caliper15 years research into mammaries and only researched into young women's, 18 to 35 year olds, bosoms. This man is a genius! After all, middle-aged women's bosoms don't matter. Does he need a research assistant? |
The study incited an international debate when a French professor performed a 15-year research on the evolution of the bra-less bosom.This is better than staring at Excel spreadsheet all day. What a job. He got Govt funding to research mammaries for 15 years. Hats off to him. |
We need more Cossy threads on front page. |
I don't think we get enough Tonto Dikeh stories. Mods need to step it up and post more Tonot Dikeh threads to the front page. |
I presume the OP is a teenager, what naive nonsense! |
Women dey suffer! ![]() |
Lol, didn't realise it's already front page. How does exposing poverty and corruption undermine national security? |
This should be front page. |
There is a lot of unreported molestation going on in our society and a state which takes measures to address it is to be applauded. I can't believe that the molestation of minors is seen as cause for tribal e-fights. |
The situation is a win-win for both sides. North Korea's sabre rattling helps sustain the North's regime by fostering a siege mentality in the North and it helps sustain US hegemony by scaring South Korea and Japan to continue to rely heavily on the US military umbrella. Obviously, the danger is that this PR game may turn into something serious due to miscalculation but the odds of that are very slim. |
Sincere 9gerian: The 2012 target could not be met. Simple. There's no need to foam at the mouth over this issue.They must be paying you well for this dross. What does it say about a leader who makes public promises that he knows fully well are unattainable? |
They say people get the leaders they deserve. That's how they start threads to pray for GEJ's wife recovery. We have a very corrupt country where life expectancy at birth is barely above 50, millions of easily preventable deaths đue to poor health facilities and the politicians who are ultimately responsible for this holocaust are feted by people, most of whose lives are blighted in one way or the other by Govt failings. |
White British children are being outperformed at school by a wide range of ethnic minority groups, including Chinese, Sri Lankan and Nigerian youngsters, a leading think-tank has revealed.http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2013/03/22/white-british-children-outperformed-ethnic-minorities_n_2930502.html |
If distributing 150,000 tablets will cost N200m, that means each tablet cost about N1333, less than $10 each. That's before you factor in issues regarding licensing. The cost of buying 56 books each for 150,000 students has been put at N8.4bn, about N1000 each. Is that the cost of secondary school textbooks in Nigeria? |
There's a perception out there amongst Nigerians that we are a rich country but that much of our money is disappearing down the politicians' pockets. While the point about theft is true the idea that we are a rich country, primarily due to our oil revenues, is patently false. Today was Budget Day in the UK and the gap between Nigeria's revenue profile and the UK's is staggering and I thought I share this observation with NLders. The UK's projected income for the year is $918bn. http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/interactive/2013/mar/20/budget-spending-interactiveTo put that into perspective, Nigeria's oil revenue from 1960 to 2008 has been estimated at $600bn. Here is a quote from an article Since 1960, over $600 billion in oil revenues has flowed into Nigeria’s coffers; it represents an opportunity unavailable to much of the developing world. These petrodollars could have been spent productively, could have transformed agriculture, laid the foundation for an effective public education system, provided much-needed infrastructure. Yet, according to the World Bank, of that $600 billion, $300 billion has simply disappeared into overseas bank accounts through theft and corruption.Source:http://qn.som.yale.edu/content/has-globalization-failed-nigeria If you take the above article's estimate, Nigeria's oil revenue over nearly 5 decades is roughly 2/3rds of the UK's revenue over 1 year. Here's the kicker, the UK has a population of 62m while Nigeria's population is estimated at 162m. Here's Nigeria's latest projected spending for the year: Feb 26 (Reuters) - Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan approved on Tuesday a 4.99 trillion naira ($31.63 billion) budget passed by parliament, the presidency said, ending two months of dispute over the spending plans.http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/02/26/nigeria-budget-idUSL6N0BQEYD20130226 The point of the above is that Nigeria's key challenge is that of economic growth not even corruption. If a single Kobo of our income was not stolen, we will still be poor. The real challenge is how to grow income through economic growth. A country can grow even with corruption, witness Italy post-WW2 and South Korea's military dictatorship, but a country with ineffective policies will forever be poor. This is why the huge spending on fuel subsidy and wages, in addition to the corruption monster, is effectively self-cannibalism. We are spending huge chunks of our money on consumption (wages, subsidy and corruption) instead of investment (ports, rail, roads, education and healthcare). To increase growth and develop as a nation, we need to transfer our spending from the former to the latter. |
The United States of America may cut aid to Nigeria following the presidential pardon granted a former governor of Bayelsa State, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha and seven others.http://www.punchng.com/news/alamieyeseigha-us-may-cut-off-aid-to-nigeria/ I know the above won't happen but it illustrates how the GEJ Govt and our political leaders continue to discredit themselves in the eyes of the world. I'm sure they ''don't give a damn'' though. |
These politicians have no shame defending the indefensible with their warped reasoning. Imagine using the analogy of parents and children. |
The way the debate has evolved suggests that Southerners are more interested in ''equitable" distribution of loot rather than having a transparent process that doesn't reward thieves like Stella Oduah and Emeka Offor. It doesn't make a difference to the average Igbo person if Arthur Eze is awarded an oil bloc anymore than the average Northerners' lives have improved with the present distribution of oil blocs. |
Those who are knocking the journalists for doing their jobs, holding public officials to account, are sadly misguided. The notion that a public official should be protected from humiliation in TV interviews as he's a guest is bizarre. The interview is nothing compared to the savage interview techniques of journalists like the BBC's Jeremy Paxman. I think many Nigerians are so used to genuflecting before public officials. |
What's this graphic stuff doing in the politics section? |
[quote author=sweet_gala]Please do not come here and claim their was a vote count on who and who would be pardoned. It was simply on page number xx the list of people the PRESIDENT has DECIDED pardoned , one or more might have raised concerns but with the multitude of GEJ yes-men they would have been silenced quick. This Alams pardon is a GEJ orchestration[/quote]It's clear most of you are paid political agents here as it's not clear why you are making this clumsy distinction between thieves. They have a clear constitutional right to be consulted on each pardon and with that they can unequivocally signal their objection to a pardon. There's no evidence that any member of the council expressed their objection. The requirement of consultation will be redundant if the process is a fait accompli once the President proposes names for pardon. |
jensinmi: For all those like 4Play making excuses that the council of state were the ones responsible for this, please refer to the relevant part of the constitution belowWhy do mo-rons like you create straw man arguments? The President and every single member of the Council who endorsed this decision are responsible for endorsing impunity and corruption and showing Nigerian politicians are indistinguishable. You and others who pretend that GEJ is a cut above the rest in corruption are either ignorant, willfully blind or motivated by monetary or ethnic concerns. Long before GEJ was known, this country had topped many rankings of the world's most corrupt countries so to pretend that this is the sole responsibility of a Nigerian politician in a case involving unanimous consent is bizarre to say the least. |
2) The powers of the President under subsection (1) of this section shall be exercised by him after consultation with the Council of State.After consulting with the Council of State, did the Council signal their objection to show that they and GEJ are not birds of the same feather. It's clear the President the can only act in consonance with the Council not despite their objection. There's no point you delusional mercenaries acting as if the brazen endorsement of impunity here is the sole preserve of GEJ whilst the other politicians looked on helplessly. |
Look at the sandy pathway and the fallen signboard in front of the main terminal. This is a complete joke, very shoddy. |
bayooooooo: Corruption As Grand Commander Of The Federal Republic Of Nigeria. I am not surprised but puzzled. GEJ is too corrupt to the extent that stuffs like this would be just normal to him. He does not worth the effort. But I am puzzled that even if people like Abati could not persuade him to drop such a daft decision, they could have at least persuaded him to leave it till the tail end of his lackluster and worthless administration. We now have a corruption in chiefYou seem to be oddly silent on the rest of members of the Council of State who unanimously approved this appalling decision. |
