And so are most awards, are u pained by it?

Obijulius:

Jealousy, drop ur tribalism and celebrate with them, and pls stop counding Lagos cos its a mix of all nigerians.
Mugu...

Don't mind that guy. But you mentioning Lagos sound funny. Lagos is not the most educated state in s/west. Where do want to put Ogun, Ekiti & Ondo?

Nigerians will never see anything good in any prestigious impression. Whereas the opposite is the case around the world. When are we going to learn to appreciate things for what they are meant for?

Billyonaire: You have been parading your ignorance on this forum, the next time you wanna respond to my assertion please put on a thinking cap. My opinion is not food for the dogs.

Again!!! I wasnt trying to disrespect you.. But since you are already there, I guess there is no point ignoring you now..


This is the comment you made which I responded to;


Billyonaire: Port Harcourt was chosen cos no other City is ready to host an organization that has no relevance to present day realities.

Now, I dont know how else you came to this conclusion if you are not a stark raving lunatic, a drunkard and a glue junkie.. Nowhere in the post was it stated that Port-Harcourt hosted UNESCO nor that they are planning to host them.........

I might clown on Nairaland, but by God, I am still intellectually more brilliant than you..

So explain yourself and your precious opinion that isnt for dogs... UNESCO HQ where the announcement was made is in PARIS, France... UNESCO National HQ, is in Abuja not Port-Harcourt.. So Mr. Smarty pants, please explain to us sir, how you came to that retarded opinion of yours?!

I may be a dog, but atleast I am not an assmonkey..

True i am not from Ondo, Ekiti or Ogun but i know well that those states produced largest number of very sound professors around and the internationally recognized ones are largely from these states.

And it was after he(Awo) succeeded in attracting them and the SS, SE saw the benefits of education that they started going to school. tongue

The truth of the matter is that the reading habit is fast fading away in our country.If this is aimed at re-awakening this habit it will be appreciated but if otherwise it is of no use.
Re: Port-Harcourt Named World Book Capital 2014 by tpia5: 4:07pm On Jul 13, 2012
