dragonking2: Hmm I came to see some comments on this thread only to see the love triangle between madridguy ngozi123 and jajaja.
Now, from what I can deduce madridguy loves Ngozi dearly with all his heart but he is anti-igbo and a Muslim..Ngozi actually have feelings too for the guy (it is obvious) but because of his tribalistic behavior and he is also a Muslim, it is a no-no for her. Finally, the sharp guy called jajaja also have feelings for Ngozi so he is trying to get rid of the competition to enable him have Ngozi for himself. This is really serious oh
Ngozi if NL guys begin to fight because of you eh, I go report you to DSS.
Bayo was never relieved of his duties. He still took shots of the president yesterday
SweetJoystick: It's obvious the cabal relieved Bayo off his duties, he was sent packing, Buhari didn't sack him, if he did, he won't ask such question.

Best Answer! OP Please follow these suggestions below. Masturbation is STUBBORN and it won't leave you if you can't control it. Best is for you to stay positive, try not to think about it. Engage in other activities NOT relating to sex/sexual activities like watching movies, hanging out etc.. and above all, learn to control yourself. Sooner/Later it would stop trust me.
iPurge: -Remove guilty conscience -Consider it normal -If after doin by mistake, Dont regret or be depressed... smile or laugh and continue doing wat u were doin b4 -Follow d above steps and u will gain control -over it.. it is not something u can just erase from u lyk dat..it is something u can choose to do or not after gaining control

Nigerian-Born UK-Based boxer, Anthony Joshua who defeated Ukrainian Wladimir Klitschko in a heavyweight championship at Wembley on Saturday April 29th has revealed the secret of his success.
In an interview with Sports brand, the heavyweight champion said he still loves Nigerian foods like pounded yam, Eba and Egusi.
He also pointed that he has plans to meet with his state governor in Nigeria to see how he can contribute to the development of his people.
When asked about his connection with Nigeria, he said; “My heart is with Nigeria, my heart is with Britain, I’m a Nigerian by blood, yes. Eating eba with egusi is the secret of success"
"I’m even trying out to get to meet the governor, and go and get something back to Nigeria, even though we do small things for the country between my family and my mother".
"We help out the village she came from and If I could do more on a large scale, I’ll definitely come down there and associate myself more with Nigeria" Anthony added.
Nigerians really believe in Prayers. This video shows some Mountain of Fire (MFM) Church members trying to use serious prayers to quench fire burning an LG Showroom at Lekki yesterday.
The prayer warriors are seen in the video speaking in tongues and calling upon the power of God to come down and quench the fire.
A facebook user, Ubong Kingsley-Udoh who shared the video wrote;
Mid-last year, I wrote about the rising growth of negative dogma and tradition in the church and some folks were quite unhappy. I'm still of the opinion that religion should be a lamppost used for illumination rather than support. I just watched this video a few minutes ago and it further buttresses that there's a thin line between having faith and being outrightly insane. Until Africa come to the realization that prosperity and common sense does not respond to prayer and fasting, we will remain a brutal nadir, and sign a life-long contract on the bottom of the totem-pole of the world.
