InvertedHammer:
It takes a thief to catch a thief. Bottom line is that a thief is caught.

Are you more interested in the messenger than the message?

who will then catch the thief that caught the thief?the law says that he that comes into equity must come with clean hands,but obviously,no nigerian politician has clean hands.they understand themselves.this matter will die down just like all others before it and life goes on.

Brilliance9000: [b]Let me state first, that I do not condone the pouring of acid on her by the Boyfriend. However, for a guy to do such a thing, he must have invested so much into the relationship; and for most people its difficult to let go. I bet he had given her so much. Typical of Nigerian women...I will continue to eat your money, your time, have you suspend your future plans for me, but when I find someone else, I have the right to dump you when and how I want. WOMEN...be careful of who you date. If you don't like a man, say it at the outset and let him go peacefully and happilly; they are other women out there that need him. Don't try to waste his time and money. You wake up one morning you just tell him it's over...what the fu$ck? What do you expect him to do if he has invested so much into you? Even if you must do this, there are slow and deliberate ways to ease yourself from someone you have known for years and you know they love you. Slowly do it and before time, you both will lose attraction and break up. Don't just do it outright...it hurts badly.

WOMEN NEVER LEAVE A RELATIONSHIP UNTIL THERE IS SOMEBODY ELSE...BELIEVE ME ON THIS. WOMEN DON'T DO THIS.[/b]

I beg to disagree with you on this.from the post,she was beaten up by him.there's no justification whatsoever to remain in an abusive relationship.many a woman have lost their lives because they didn't walk out when the battery started at the ab initio "because of d kids","because he has spent so much","because of what people will say",etc etc....besides,we weren't there,so we can't conclude that he spent so much.I know women who spend so much on their bfs and they still beat them up!

mu2sa2: . Gej must answer for this flagrant violation of the constitutional rights of these women and children. In office or out he wont go scott-free. Happily the nigeria bar assoc gombe branch is already looking at cases of violtion of human rights under soe in the noth east, hopefully those people`s lawyers will take up the case of these unfortunate muslim women and children persecuted by gej because of their faith.

persecuted by gej BECAUSE OF THEIR FAITH, you say?OK.so......Who will answer for the flagrant violations of the right to life and freedom of religion of the innocent citizens of nigeria murdered by the islamist suicide bombers BECAUSE OF THEIR FAITH(lemme just take the examples of the ones bombed in the churches)?

Policewoman: So even the wife of the Lord of ACN, TINUBU voted against her oga's party's wish. ok o!

Maybe she was one of the nine absentees.

yuzedo: [b]Wait! What is the issue here? A human being in a desperate bid for survival took the only course she thought (correctly or not) would help her situation, a valid and understandable one at that, and people are here taking pride in the circumstance and location of their birth and asking why she didn't go elsewhere? LOOOOOOOL!!!!!!! You guys are the hypocrites that go to churches and mosques UNFAILINGLY every week! Haha! What a sad pot of schmuckism! I even thought (until i went back and re-read the previous comments) that this thread was supposed to be a rallying-point for helping someone desperately in need, and not addressing Lagos' superiority. WHAT IF YOUR MOTHER HAD SEX WITH A TOGO MAN, TOOK IN, AND PASSED YOU OFF AS YOUR LAGOSIAN FATHER'S SON, AND Y'ALL DON'T KNOW THIS SECRET YET? WILL IT CHANGE YOUR STRONG AND UNDULY ASININE AFFINITY TO LAGOS?!?!?! hah! The way una dey take carry tribe and ethnicity for head shaa! Funny stuff! Trust me, if you are in some chinese gulag far worse than sing-sing with a fellow Nigerian, that man will be closer than your blood brother, regardless of tribe. STOP THIS RUBBISH PEOPLE!

Besides, she obviously came to Lagos because most of the NGOs and institutions (not necessarily LASG agencies) capable of helping her are domiciled here in Lagos .... by virtue of the British Colonial decision to set up camp in Lagos .... by virtue again of its coastal properties and easy access to the atlantic ocean thus aiding economic activities and administrative efficiency. There are so many factors that make Lagos what it is, but y'all need to stop beating your chests like you personally built the city brick by brick and economic activity by economic activity. CHRIST! What kind of Pharisee behavior is this that we are so desensitized to the travails of our fellow human and argue on the mundane?! I give up![/b]

wow!is this the same banana iceland chief or his alter ego?....I'm impressed!

I don't know which is weirdest and funniest amongst 4,5 and 6!lol

Lilimax: This lady is becoming deluded... She is entirely narcissistic and obsessed with her beauty
She'd be well advised to get a job, grow up and buy a new mirror !

Especially buy a new mirror!

The_King'sQueen:
Na wa oh! This issue should not be allowed to get out of hand and degenerate into a religious dissaffection. Let the relevant authorities handle this matter early enough. Meanwhile, i think the wearing of hijab in schools should be made optional and voluntary. As in, Muslim students who wish to wear it should be allowed to wear it, while those who do not want to wear it should not be forced to wear it.
Afterall, Catholic Reverend Sisters who are studying in government-owned higher institutions wear their complete habit in schools.
Please, all these issues that could result in inter-religious quarrels should be handled with care and wisdom.

Emphasis on HIGHER INSTITUTIONS.The issue on ground is about SECONDARY SCHOOLS.Big difference in my opinion cos the secondary schools wear uniforms.....permit me to add that those reverend sisters you used as examples had their secondary education in convents.this means that they all covered their heads too cos that was part of d UNIFORM!!

cyril83: *throws stone from one corner and Hits his forehead gbozzz!, d old glutton falls down and nobody cares to rush him to d hospital* Mehn how i wish i could achieve my aim on this baskaard.

Sibrah: They should thank their stars JTF didn't present only 6.5 of them alive and the rest dead.

hahaha,which one be .5 again?

timbros: I smile

You wont believe how much it works until you master the art of smiling when angry...

hmmm,you are worthy to be feared and suspected o.imagine giving me a chilled smile when I'm sure I pissed u off.I ll just be wondering what he has up his sleeves.lol....@OP,when I get angry,I walk away.I take a long stroll most of d time.my man doesn't like me to leave his presence when I'm angry cos according to him,the next time we re-visit that issue after d stroll,na court judgement be dat o,cos I ll have thought everything out.

LOL@dreaded list .....I ve seen girls threaten their parents/families that they ll just go get pregnant and move in with her fiance if they don't reduce the list reasonably.most times,the threat approach works!

freecocoa: Abegi which one is "cute" is for teenage girls?shioor na today?

Every other thing minus his handsomeness aside, Tu baba it is. That man is what I call "beautiful".

There's nothing like a strong, tall, black skinned man.

He's got it all in terms of looks.

Kill them all or have the country destroyed.

*in d voice of d dancing master* (to the gallant soldiers) WHAT DO WE SAY TO DEATH?.......NOT TODAY!!!

Decryptor: Crixus: Spartacus, may i have words?
Spartacus: Speak brother.
Crixus: The Nigerian Army have taken the state of Borno and are gaining victory over the f*ckin jihadists. Words have it that their camps are being overwhelmed!
Spartacus: A news that gladens heart. The Boko Haram have left nothing but blood and death in the trail of the north.
Crixcus: But what if the jihadists flee into other neutral northern states; word has it that there was an explosion in the ever quiet state of kastina a day before.
Spartacus: Let us but tarry and watch. And also pray the army will keep vigilant eye on the borders in order to defeat intention of escape. But if they fail, we will but aid them and descend on the islamists just like we did against the Romans and spill their blood in equal measure as they did unto the christians and innocents.

*in the voice of gannicus* I always knew that you would lead these men to their deaths eventually.is this the day you would do it?

babyosisi: Thank you
Eziokwu?
Fantastic!
Shoot at sight eh kwa
So their useless governors and their 5 wives will pack out from govt house?
Allah Sarikin

unfortunately,they aren't packing.he has allowed the governors and senators to stay.I think that's a wrong move because two captains cannot stay on a ship.conflict of authority may soon arise....what I don't understand is what happens to the newly set up committee tasked with bringing boko haram to d table.is he going to beg them on one hand and then use force on d other hand at d same time?....whatever be the case,it cannot be said that he has not explored all available options,so if force will be used as a last option to stop these incessant killings,then it is a welcome development.

Agbalanze: The masses should have the final say and not Mr Obi...

exactly.peter obi should realize that its the citizens that should choose their leader.his opinions shouldn't count(if only nigeria is what it should be)

Hate GAYbriel: Someone pls warn terry g n denrele that kenya is a no-go area for em now.

Dis one na real prison break o.are u sure michael scoffield was not a patient there?make dem kukuma send alex mahone to go look for d remaining 30.

Personally I don't find anything wrong with asking or being asked "how are you".if I talk to an older person,I ll say "how are you sir/ma" and if its online on over the phone,I add "are you having a good day?"(Though this depends on the rapport). a couple of times,my 5years old neighbor has asked me "aunty how are you"?I didn't find it insulting.I found it rather strange and sweet.I told her with a smile,"I'm fine onini,and you?" And she said fine. infact,anyone who greets me(irrespective of age) should be ready to hear "goodmorning,how are you",and anyone who asks me how are you should be ready to hear "I'm fine,thanks AND YOU"?that's my standard greeting.no big deal at all....and for how was your night,I'd rather say "did you sleep well?" or "did you have a good night rest?" (I don't wanna know the other details! )

Afam4eva: I've always been of the opinion that Fashola ranks one of the worst in terms of people oriented projects. His projects are not meant to change lives but to give impressions that are not a true representation of the residents of Lagos.

Like you said, Amaechi did well in education even though he spent more on the structures and little on the human resource. Our leaders have to start learning how to strike a balance.

very true!

Appliedmaths.:
Both the private and public sectors have their own quarter to contribute in the process of development.There are adverse advantages and dis-advantages to this process.Some economists believed in privitization(the transfer of public enterprise either partially or wholly to private hands) while others believed in government serving as the key element in the process of delivering development.But in my own opinion,it should be a mixed system that is the mixture of both private and public hands.
If we allow the private sector do it alone,knowing very well that they hav a lot of forigen experts as their top agents this would lead to a leakage whereby earnings of these forigeners would be transported back to their country leaving us with infrastructure and little or no money in circulation.On the other hand if we allow the govt.(The public sector) do it alone,political interferance coupled with massive corruption would also weaken the system.Economic systems works differently in different countries,so don't compare the Nigerian economy to that of America.In my own opinion sustainable development can only be achieved when the activities of both the public and private sectors are properly guided,and this brings us back to the usual problems we face in all sectors of the country which includes:
Transparency
Accountability
Political interferance
And we know the rest.

I totally agree with this......a lot of people mistake economic growth for economic development.while economic growth can be said to be increase in GDP/GNP,economic development is more encompassing.there can be economic growth without development.economic development can be defined as economic growth PLUS improvement in other spheres and sectors of the economy like healthcare,eduaction,power,etc.in otherwords,it cannot be said that there is economic development if there is no reflection of d impact of economic growth on d lives of d citizenry of a given nation.if d skyscrappers cannot directly or indirectly positively affect the lives of d individuals then there's no point!how does building d most exquisite government house affect d per capita income of d citizens?what's d point of building schools everywhere when teachers aren't properly motivated?what's d point of building hospitals without providing medical equipment needed to save lives?do the doctors have pre-requisite training and man-power needed to use the machines?the government knows this,and that's why they cannot trust our health care sector with their lives.they'd rather go abroad for medical check-ups than use our hospitals and they'd rather send their kids to school abroad than use our schools.

freecocoa: You must be new on NL then, he's just a mr.cork wannabe.

Yes I'm new on nairaland but I ve been an ardent guest for close to two years now.I know about mr.cork and his humor,but I just find this guy yuzedo very funny.never fails to get me laughing like a lunatic all d time. his funniest reply I read was about d 21rules where he said he ll be banned forever cos of grammar and even 10 girls can't "come forth" him. epic!!....sorry for derailing ooo.I can fight for love,not physically though and certainly not diabolically!!
