@ Bolded
Pride Price and Wedding Ceremony have swallowed the 1milli

I have a friend in your kinda situation
He is also a nairalander
He has postpone his wedding simply because his in-law are demanding above 300k for Traditional wedding
Now guess how much he will spend on the White Wedding

If only our Parent can cut their greed of milking their Potential son in-law
Also the wives should cut their coat accordingly

Just 300k for Trad. Is this a joke?

Pierocash:
where it holds matters,the outcome can be influenced and rights of the deserved taken.

It does if it is a deliberation within SS for example, a meeting held to decide where to site PTI, Oil firm zonal headquarters, Petroleum University, etc. This time around, it is SS vs FG vis-a-vis their double standards with Zamfara gold mining and AOBs that may arise. So, you and I know that it does not matter at all where the meeting holds.

Neddstark:
Gowon was removed from power in a coup while he was in Uganda. What time did he have to loot half of the central bank and come to London after his coup? Why didnt the government of Muritala request the funds transferred to London. There is no way that money that huge will leave the shores of Nigeria and not be noticed by the succeeding government. Also, he came back to Nigeria and nothing was done about it.
I am not defending nobody. This UK parliament man was probably a child when this thing happened. We need strong proof to verify this actually happened. Verbal assertions is not enough. We were sure of what Obasanjo did. We had proof of what Abacha did. So let the proofs come out.

Will you fu*king keep kwayet! This is UK parliament my friend. It is not a random guy making a Snapchat video from his backyard

ednut1:
Gowon was overthrown while at AU meeting. how did he then move the money to London we all know he stole but can this man's account be accurate. The west are enablers of corruptions but still come out latter to talk shit lmao

Gowon is still alive to but you are responding to these accusations before him, the accused. Shame on your entire generation.

[quote author=Pierocash post=96384253][/quote]the write up did not support your opinion about right and respect. The premises contained therein did not in any way suggest that there was any competition for the choice of a venue. So your argument is extremely baseless and has no link with your analogy of rights and justice. Stop creating issues where none exists.

My Jesus will be too busy to attend to those riff raffs!

Jesus actually came for riffraffs. Except your own Jesus is not Christ.

These people talk without shame.

I'm sure he is Using sarcasm.

Pierocash:
Why Port Harcourt, why not Asaba? Okowa is the chairman of South south governor's forum, so the meeting should have been in asaba ,because delta contribute more to the national resources

Your view on this matter typifies the core problem of Nigeria. We have been conditioned to focus on trivialities like ethnicity,religion, partism, sexism, sectionalism and parochialism while our thieving politicians fan the embers of these ugly divisive tools but secretly cash out as a unified team. The whole of Southern Nigerians are the dumbest people alive on earth today.

God help us

God has helped you by giving you brain, voice, and democracy to change your lot. Use it.

firstworld:
Its people like you that make people like this continue to deceive themselves. Nothing much to say to you. As if the mother is not in the picture. My comment is now hate speech abi?

Just think about what I told you. Being indifferent is better than dishing out some negative vibes. I condemned what you said but I still have respect for you because nobody holy pass. Let us all learn how to tolerate each other.

firstworld:
Fakeness personified. Fake hair, fake eyebrows, fake eyelashes, fake eye colour, fake lips colour, fake skin color. God forbid. Can African ladies ever be proud of their heritage? Must everything look American?

1.This post is about the son. Please try and limit your hate for the mother at least for the sake of this boy.
2.Secondly, she is someone's wife, I have never read anywhere where the husband complained.
3. Just put yourself in other people's place whenever u want to comment on anyone's post.
4. Sometimes, all you gotta do in not to give an eff by not commenting.
5. Think about no:1-4 and it will help you know how to react towards me and henceforth.

Why didn't he study at ABU Zaria?

[quote author=thatsleepboy1 post=96195473]He said, “The state government doesn’t own any portion of the goldfields throughout the state and is not involved in mining activities.”
The commissioner maintained that the state government only used to buy the gold from the illegal miners in order to prevent the commodity from being smuggled out of the country or sold out to bandits.
“What the state government does is to buy the gold so that it doesn’t fall into wrong hands who in return sell it outside the country and purchase weapons for the bandits.”



Just imagine buying gold from the illegal miners and they know them. We've gone past these things abeg. Why don't they arrest the illegal miners. They've just scored an OWN GOAL.
then FG should start buying crude from illegal drillers.

I thought keke was introduced to reduce RTAs only for them to continue where Okada stopped. The earlier Keke drivers realize that they have no main Chassis frame, airbag, and seat belts, the better for all. Our transport system needs a complete overhaul while all drivers need reorientation.

Every soul must taste death!

My Bible did not tell me so. What if rapture happens this morning?

cpu2006:
Na Madam Kemi Olunloyo always dey break this kind News.

give us good news, not this kind yeye news

Which news better pass say a Nigerian politician died?. Remember what happened in the morning of June 9,1998 how it seemed Nigeria scored a world cup winning goal because the ONLY time Nigerians rejoice together is when our football team play. That is the only scenario that can describe what happened that morning. Except one family, every other Nigerian home rejoiced!.
So Aunty Kemi, bring it on

I have just one question to ask. How did we get here?

Neddstark:
There should be a law that anyone found stealing has his right index finger cut off.
The thief will never be able to pull a trigger or hold a machete well again

Right and left index fingers u mean

Though your wife's approach was wrong and may cast aspersions to the genuineness of that trip, one major reason a woman may act this way is if you, as a husband doesn't allow her to take part in important occasions, festivals, and ceremonies in her own village. Maybe you never attended previous ones with her and won't let her travel alone or with her kids to her maiden village. If that is the case, then you need to readjust and create some time for HER OWN trips. Otherwise, there is more to that trip than meet the eyes.

vanbonattel:
This ports authority is what Yorubas should use in making billions post Nigeria disintegration or regionalism.

Yoruba, wake up.

see this one. So you don't know that the seaport in Lagos belongs to the north just like southern crude oil?

vanbonattel:
Are you serious ?

Igbos own Nigerian Ports Authority

Igbos own Oba of Lagos palace (Oba is just a tenant ) lol

Igbos own TVC news station

Igbos own the warehouse and all the palliative looted

Igbos own all the BRT buses and terminals

Igbos own all the police stations

Igbos bought oriental hotels 2 days before the riots.

These Igbos are blessed people aswear

He said businesses, he didn't mean government property or bullion van proceeds. Try and be smart for once in your life.

RepoMan007:
Can't they donate for him within his ward or Buhari is now so unpoular within?

I tire oo. I expected the sai Baba crew to come to his rescue just like BBN magas

Igboid:
Don't get it confused

Uche Okwukwu and other opportunistic Ikwerres are all part of Ohanaeze Ndiigbo because Ohanaeze is a useless organization that is obsolete and not in sync with modernity which exactly why the organization has no grassroot support in Igbo land.

Even as UK pulled out of EU, if the EU leaders are stupid enough to make an opportunistic English man claiming to be anti Brexit the Secretary general of EU with the pay package and power that comes with it,do you think such British will decline? The answer is No.
But does EU making an English man the Secretary general of EU change the fact that the British back home have no interest in being part of EU.

That Uche Okwukwu an Ikwerre man is even allowed to be part of Ohanaeze let alone rise to post of Secretary general is a testament to how useless Ohanaeze Ndiigbo is as an organization.
No Ikwerre or any one whose majority of his people are Igbophobic should be part of Ohanaeze Ndiigbo if the organization is a serious one.

So you IPOB should stop quoting this Uche Okwukwu,because you are only underlying the failure of Igbo leadership as epitomized by Ohanaeze when you use Uche Okwukwu as example of Ikwerre being Igbo.

Funny enough, all these abokis/afonjas that are clapping for you guys are the first set of people to remind you that you are Nyamiri/Omoibo when the chips are down. For example, when you go to the north and casala burst for there, just stand on the road when they're killing to tell them, I am Uchechukwu from Ikwere. I no be Igbo, I am Igboid. Rubbish.

Igboid:
Don't be stupid.

Answer simple question and you are already abusive. It simply means that you are the stupid one here.

AJohnnasa:
Good for you.

I'm as old as 13A

I'm many years older.

aboywithaname:
Lol ask oo. I'm only a prospective one. No yet. I'm asking in respect of others

okay, your ignorance has been pardoned. Tell them to save their small change. CD Yapa for camp.

AJohnnasa:
After the long wait occasioned by the coronavirus pandemic ravaging the world, fresh graduates of universities, polytechnics and colleges of education are set to resume a three week stay in National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) orientations camps across the country.

This piece focuses on essential items prospective corps members need for a three week stay in orientation camps.

1. Call Up Letter
This is the first item a prospective corps member needs; it is the ticket into camp. How do I mean? The call up letter is the document and evidence which shows that a graduate of a tertiary institution is eligible to be admitted into an orientation camp. Without this document, registration in camp will be impossible.

2. Photocopies of Documents
A prospective corps member should endeavour to run between 10-12 copies of all relevant documents, including school certificate or statement of result before resuming at NYSC orientation camp.

3. Passport Photographs
To avoid stress at the NYSC orientation camp, a prospective corps member should have at least 30 copies of passport size photographs. This should be enough for all forms required to fill out in camp. For corps members who wish to redeploy, make more than 30 copies.

4. Stationeries
Items like pen, paper, correction pens, staplers and pins will come in handy.

5. White T-shirt
Although corps members will be given two pairs of white T-shirts in camp, it would be wise to take some from home. Reason for this is that you may not be given your size (consider: oversize for very slim people, and undersize for plus size comrades). The number of T-shirts to take to camp is at the discretion of the corps member, but I suggest three (3) pairs as they may not have time to wash all the time.

T-shirts should be round neck.

6. White Shorts
Same as in point 5 above, prospective corps members need to take plain white shorts to camp. White T-shirts and shorts is the only uniform or dress code allowed in NYSC orientation camps. Depending on the orientation camp, corps members may not be allowed to wear coloured clothings to church or mosques on Sundays and Fridays respectively.

7. Plain White Sneakers
Prospective corps members are required to wear ONLY plain white sneakers or tennis shoes while in camp. Anything other than the stated colour or pattern is contraband. Although the service will provide corps members with white shoes labelled NYSC, it is wise for a corps member to take at least two plain white shoes with them to orientation camp. Reason for this is because you may not get your actual size.

8. White Stockings
Corps members are required to wear white stockings in orientation camps. I suggest three or more white stockings to add what will be given in orientation camp.

9. A Pair of Slippers
NYSC orientation camps are regimented and officials are particular about dress codes, but corps members need to take a pair of slippers with them to camp. You cannot imagine having a bathe with white shoes, can you?

10. Insecticide-Treated Net
NYSC orientation camps are usually fumigated and most times the procedure lasts until the end of camping or even more, but it is never a wise decision to leave anything to chance. This is the reason why a prospective corps member should go with an insecticide-treated net or mosquito net to camp. You do not want to be down with malaria, do you?

11. Disinfectant
Bathwater in most orientation camps, especially in northern Nigeria are 'unclean' and needs to be disinfected. Take disinfectants to orientation camp to minimise risk of an infection.

12. Basic Medication
NYSC orientation camp clinics are either inadequately equipped with medication or they quickly run out of basic medicines. To help yourself, carry medicines such as analgesics, allergy pills, nusuea relief pills etc.

13. Waist Pouch/Bag
The importance of this cannot be overemphasised. Therein, you can put your phones, petty cash, ATM cards, pens and other items that can fit in.

While I was at NYSC orientation camp in Ede, Osun State, many corps members slept with their waist bags to avoid losing valuable items.

14. Torchlight or Rechargeable Lamp
This item will come in handy if you need to do anything after lights out. You can use them in the bathroom early in the morning whilst you prepare for morning drill and meditation.

Most NYSC orientation camps disconnect the sockets to avoid electricity surge which may lead to a fire outbreak, but in case you go with a rechargeable torchlight or lamp, you can charge them at Mami market at little cost.

15. Cash
Owing to its grave importance, this should have been the number one item on the list. I do not need to tell you what cash can be used for at NYSC orientation camps, but if you do not like to eat camp food, I assure you you will need a lot of cash to get by in camp. Recharge cards, charging of devices, pleasure are other things you would need money for.

Ensure you go with an ATM card, in case you run out of cash before the end of orientation camp.

16. T[b]oiletries[/b]
Towels, handkerchiefs, tissue papers, sanitory pads etc.

17. Bedspread, Pillow and Pillow Case
While mattresses are given to prospective corps members in NYSC orientation camps, they should not expect that to come with a bedspread or pillow or pillow cases.

If you do not like stress, you can get these items at Mami market in your NYSC orientation camp, but expect it to be a little expensive compared to regular markets.

18. Plates, Cups, and Spoons
Go with a bowl and flat plates, food flask, cups and spoons for nourishment.

19. Padlock
People lose things at NYSC orientation camps, therefore, it is important to have this item to secure your bags and boxes.

20. Bucket
Except you can go 20 days without a bathe, you will need a plastic bucket.

BONUS. Something for Distraction

Sometimes it might get boring in NYSC orientation camp. At this point you will need something to distract you. A book, music device, handheld computer game etc. should suffice.

Meanwhile, according to the Director General of National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), announced that Stream 1B would kick off orientation on Thursday, 3 December 2020 and end on Tuesday, 22 December, 2020.

Stream 2 of the same batch would resume in camp on Tuesday, 5 January 2021 and end on Monday, 25 January, 2021.

Stream 1A kicked off orientation on 10 November, 2020 and will end on Monday, 30 November, 2020.

Have you been called up for national youth service? How excited are you?

OP, I rep Living spring Corper (OS/**B/1113) millennium camp Ede was fun that year when PDP was sharing the money. 2 maluu every weekend with steady power supply from the back up genset courtesy of Onyinlola / Erelu Obada. If you no serve for Osun, wetin you gain?

aboywithaname:
Did you forget condom??

They share it everywhere in camp. Lots of NGOs in the family health sector (MDGs, NACA, FHI360). I am forced to ask you if your NYSC na audio, but make I fashy.

Benue state commissioner of HEALTH died in JOS where he was moved for MEDICAL ATTENTION. What does that tell you about his ministry and Benue state government at large.

They will soon allow cows to be moved across the borders... No be Buhari again?

Which borders are you guys talking about. You must be extremely ignorant about the the geography of Northern Nigeria to have assumed that Northern borders were ever closed. The only closed borders are Southern borders. All the cows consumed in Nigeria are herded from Niger and Chad into Nigeria on a daily basis. Same with rice and goat. If you doubt me, consult YouTube. "Smuggling across Nigerian Northern borders".

I served in Olorunda (Osogbo) and I know the two Anglican churches involved. There must have been insider job because those two have good quality PA systems. One even has Pipe organ. I am glad they didn't ruin that. Respect to Reverend Fabuluje (NYSC Chaplain), Now Bishop Fabuluje. True man of God.
