₦airaland Forum

I'm igbo but from ibadan.

Goons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hurray , my hundredth post on Nairaland.

Fair enough, its on an issue of great importance to Nigeria, Africa, da World.

I guess there are times referring to a previous post would just do. Sammyjl has given a very good comment. Make attempts to, Balance your views with that of your parents..U might get to convince them or learn somethings from them.I tell you, it's always good.

Salutations to the people of Namibia.

U know, All of u accusing one another are just Goons. Dont u freaking get tired. Damn it.!!!

@ the end of it all , whatever we claim to know is like a grain of salt in the ocean,

For God sake , celebrate the oneness of God and the greatness "believing" has done in your life. @ the end of the Day we have more important things in common.

Hey, your atheistic inclination is making you abusive. If u don't take care , i will have to report you to the Administrator.

Nobody knows it all!!!.

@ FACE
My hands and Face you. Good One.

The both of them are whores or prostitutes.Whatever.

lol lol

Ok seriously, I guess Soludo touched this issue:

""As you can see, Naira is the symbol of our nationalism and our pride. It is pertinent to let you understand that Arabic is not one of our national languages and it was inscribed on the notes forty years ago because the majority of people then, can read it in the northern part of the country to the detriment of their counterparts in the South."

GSM would be good to talk about.

The Diff. between EFCC and ICPC boils down to Maths

EFCC & ICPC= CC(EF & IP).

Now because EF comes before IP in the alphabetical order.

Nuhu Ribadu is more Popular than the ICPC Boss.

@Rogo,

it isn't that easy fighting poverty. @ least the World orgs,etc are doinig something.

I agree more has to be done and the Nigerian government has to be play a more proactive role in this regard.

Who told you that

Did u ask why. Here 's an answer:

Because we've got some problems to solve.

Dont worry, it shall be Good soon.

THanks for worrying about us.

How can we freaking develop when we never stop arguing (non constructively) on our issues. Some dude calling the Northerner a Cow and another dude calling the Southerner a PIG.

@ d end of the day, both think they are supporting one stupid interest. U are destrying NIGERIA.

In Nigeria we are HOMO SAPIENS SAPIENS!!!! GET THAT CLEAR AND STOP THE BICKERING!

Chuka, u sound like an Oppositionist.

Good talk,

I will rule by God's grace.

With my connections with Bode Goerge and Obasanjo. I will Rule in 007.

Vote Me.

Obasanjo , Obasanji , My hands for U, Baba Agba Fun ra e.

What on Heaven is Happening to Naija.With all the beautiful Ladies Around. Damn it Men.

Hey the Mushin Lady,

So whats up with this New pic. Quiet expresive or shuld i say naughty.

Good one @Segoye2.

Before responding,allow me express the joy of being replied directly by Seun, 4 me thats great. Its not easy nowsdays to come by creators/owners of Fantastic ideas like our nairaland(I know sey u b d owner).

Having said that allow me disagree with U(Seun) on the evil oil issue,


How is oil extraction an evil work?

Segoye2 already shed some light on this but let me go a bit further. I shall try tobe fair to the avrious phylosophical inclinations that may aboud in this forum. Evil, itself quite varies and is relative. At times saving a guy who later kills a Multitude isn't necesarily "good" while killing a guy who was about to save a multitude isn't necesarily "Evil".Food for Thougth!!!. What you call evil is all dependent on how far u comprehend the prevailing circumstances of such action (the before, the present and the after).Ofcoourse, no man really comprehends it totally. We should just try to be fair based on the knowledge we have.

Let me go ahead and give a definition which i consider fair. That Evil is "Action/actions a person/persons embark upon for the common good as judged by the best of Mankind's knowledge and true intentions.". A kind of action whose primary intention benefits from the origin of that action and extends as far as possible.

Such an action that forgets or doesn't care for it's nearest surrounding/source is bound to fail as it attacks the very foundation mean't to sustain.I'm sure we've heard of Sustainable Development. It was on this basis that i consider as Evil the action of the Government and the Multinationals in not adequately taking care of the Indigineuos peoples of the NIger Delta. People should know , this doesnt happen only in NIgeria, it happens to the peoples of Latin America , something similar happened in Ireland. It doesn't happen only in Oil Exploration, it happens in various other areas(Diamond Mining, Gold Mining etc) and most of the time the indigineous people are the ones cheated upon. It is indeed one of the ugly sides of Full blown Capitalism.

If the Niger Deltans are rascals, the Government would still have some share of the blame.For it was upon them the responsibility for Education was placed.We should rememebr this problem has been around for Long and that These guys took up arms not long ago.


So, Evil or Good would always depend on the circumstances surrounding such an action and many a times the surroundng environment happens to be an important subset of that word "circumstances"


Cheers.

@Genial
Men, U dey yab o. The profile page is meant for Briefs and not Whole Length Newspapers.Ur previous pic was better though it seemed u'd just shaved b4 taking that one.


@Gamine
U R Welcome!

@Gemine
You got me on that one . And then, they say ladies aren't Smart. That's crap. U ladies are just too intelligent.


Well, as 4 d pic , well i guess it's not yet time. For now, i like White and Black. U know, it simpler and clearer.The computer needn't bother itself with thousands of pixels with varying colours. It just White-0 or Black-1 or vice versa. It is that "Bad" 4 me.

I looked up the Photoshop 7.0 on the comp. and there seems to be no[i] Art effect[/i]s, the nearest was artisitc effect in the Layer Menu Options.Still investigating sha.


Cheers, D Creative ,Graphic Designer from the Womb.

U know , ur comments made me have a second look @ d pic on my profile to see How old i look to deserve a Sir.

Well, I never reach that level, as much as this tempts me to put my pic in da real colour, i shall resist the temptation 4 Now.

Nonetheless, thanks for d explanation, u should see me in Naija Colours soons. Good works over there.R u thinking of Majoring in Graphic design or what? And r CU IT students always this creative.

Cheers.

Hey Gamine , u r yet to answer my Question!!(Check my last Message)

How about those Photoshop Effects??

Cheers.

@dblock,

I don't think (MEND and related) are "destroying" there villages, it turns out these villages are the places where the Nigerian Govt & the Multinationals are doing the evil work and they have to be confronted right there.

The thieves of the Govt and Multinationals are the Bad destroyers.

Cheers.
