Nope. Why do you think like this? This is the most BH that has been terrorizing that region. This is a group tagged as terrorist. The other group tagged terrorist but without weapons, did know how they were treated or you have forgotten the infamous Python dance? This BH people have ISIS as their parent organisation and these people have cost nigeria billions of dollars and thousands of lives.

Now, these same set of people kidnap over a hundred girls and without any security stop in place, aboslutely nothing. They kidnapped their sisters, friends and loved ones in the society and it was a national tragedy. Whatever transpired, they decided to return those girls and i dont believe it is out of the goodness of their heart.
They drove again all the way from their caves into the streets with the kidnapped girls to return, again without any security checks and in as much as it is ironically a good thing that the girls are about to be reunited with their family but the atmosphere that came with it shows how much fraud is taking place. Leave these people alone, they have passed through hell.

Rather than fear and a soberly joy that comes with someone who is about to see a loved one that was almost lost to the hands of evil, we see an open air jubilation and rejoicing, praising and applauding a terrorist group and the irony is that, its not about the returned girls but about the so called terrorist group. The idea that they are recognised and complemented the way that when a well recognised public office holder such as the presidency or governor comes into town and be complimented. It baffles me.

That video did show any girls, the video show a community hailing and embracing their evils and as you will observe, they are mostly guys.

This is appalling and it speaks volume. It implies that BH is a recognised authority and a worthy one at that in that community. Those guys know each other. They relate and often come into town to interect socially, not even a s a terror group but as also a community members and yes, still as BH. Its like joing a club and identify with the club that runs the community.

It also implies that this BH is all a charade. A charade to get government attention and spending. Bluntly speaking, it is a money spinner for both the government and the group. Either way, all parties are beneficiaries, including the community because before you know it, money will round and they have a sentimentalist of their kind in power.

This footage speaks volume. Volumes you may not see anywrong with. Its quite unfortunuate that a few girls were used as pawns and while we are really happy they have been reunited with their families, i am, we see the bigger picture of the ineptitude and fraud of those sentimental to the plights of APC and if they think they have gained sentiments, they have failed woefully.

We do not expect them to be sad but we know when a society is going through pains and understands the joy that comes when that society comes out of this and what i see as many others isnt such.

A close family friend who was so dear to me was once kidnapped for days and during the ordeal, if the kidnapper asks us to sing their praises and eulogize them just for us to see our dear one released, we won't even think twice about it. Bros., you can sit in your save heaven and say whatever you like but I'll tell you that if you haven't been in their shoe, you'll never understand why they're acting like that. The relatives of those losing their lives everyday all over the country would've done worse just to save their loved once. Bros, it is never real, until it is personal!

BERNIMOORE:
do you just say getting this one right? Oh my God, This will be repeating itself over and over again, and for you to say questions shouldn't be ask showed your kinda low esteem

Thanks...what again?

What do you want them to do pls? To be stoning and insulting them...or to start attacking them so they can kill those girls right before them? Until you guys walk in their shoes, you'll never understand those pictures.

Lukgaf:
You weep a times while reading Nigeria news most especially Boko Haram. But something is not clear to me about the issue BOKO HARAM, FG negotiated for the release of few Chibok girls, early yesterday, they brought the recently abducted girls themselves. Who are FG negotiating with? How come they (mediator) know them (Boko Haram)? Does that mean FG know those in charge? But remember people are dieing daily on this issue of Boko Haram. Our military men are always killed by those guys and FG claimed they negotiate with them, but why not negotiate with them to end the terrorism. This to me is an irony.

If truly you negotiate with Boko Haram and it is not politics like people claimed, why can't you negotiate with them to put end to terrorism? Or what's your view?

When you understand terrorism deeply and their module operadi all over the world, you won't even ask any of those questions....rather you'll commend fg for getting this one right. It is never a conventional warfare that you can just go with your arsenals and And like that. All over the world, negotiations are made with terrorists for reasons similar to this one. It is ignorant and too much Hollywood that makes people believe USA don't negotiate with terrorist; they do wella. Though this kidnap shouldn't have happened to start with but we should all be happy that they're back wihin the shortest possible time. Trust me, it was irresponsibility and insentivity to human lives on the part of the govt of the day that makes chibok own linger on for this long.

Funny enough this is the same game played by pdp that forms parts of the reason why they lost 2015 election. If they're sure it was a script, let them proof it and stop ranting and playing politics with human lives.
In 2015, they even said nobody was kidnapped and debated that for a very long time giving avenue for the terrorist to make a strong statement with that and we're still battling with such inefficiency and insensitivity by gudluck govt. PDP just never learn from their mistakes and that will form the primary reason why they will lose more come 2019. We just need a better opposition pls.
For me, I commend this govt for getting this one right and been proactive....though it shouldn't have happened in the first place.

Biglittlelois:
Future hubby, where ever you are, dont try this with me, it's embarrassing

Happy for them though

like seriously it is very embarrassing.

There is nothing wrong in that only that at your age, you're not to young at all to marry for a more better and mutually beneficial reasons. You can find the right guy to love and who'll in turn love and cherish you that you can settle down with. You can have it all dear-hot sex, companionship, love,..etc.
You're ripe age-wise but are you matured enough? That's the question you must anwer sincerly.

HML in advance guys. God bless your union.

Chukazu:
This is completely erroneous.i don't know how we make up this assumptions.

South East politics has always tilted towards the center, please check your facts.

And South East has always formed alliance more than you can imagine.even more so South East have had better partnership with the North more than any other southern region.

First and second republic government was between South East and North...in Leadership of TAFAWA BELEWA AND AZIKIWE; SHEHU SHAGARI AND ALEX EKWUEME.

Even in military we had Ebitu Ukaiwe and IBB.

This is the first time we are having an opposition party in government and South East duly voted for the ruling party PDP... Don't forget that ALEX EKWUEME was largely instrumental to the formation of PDP but he was schemed out of the party making way for OBASANJO and South West.

So nobody should use that"over flogged argument" of South East politics to deceive us.

The South East had their doubt about Buhari's Nepotism as a leader, that was why they never voted for him...and true to that concerns, Buhari has shown that the South East was right after all by not voting him and APC through his actions and utterances.

For a leader (supposed father of the nation ) to open his mouth and call and entire region "5% " shows how callous a person his is .
So we put our eggs in basket ,it was certainly the right basket.

ok

Chukazu:
No. It's just the East that is affected the most , check your fact .
I didn't just mention service Chiefs, I also talked about para- military . every other region is represented apart South East
I don't know what sentiment got to do with demand for fairness and equity ?

Do you really think the North would accept a president of Igbo extraction or Southerner appointing service Chiefs without a Northern content?

I'm excitedly replying you bumper to bumper cos of your matured response; thanks.
Meanwhile, I'm not sure if it's true that the SE are the most affect cos I don't have "all" the facts needed to arrive at such conclusion...nontheless, I know very well that buhari appointments accross board is way too biased and unfair in every sense but mind you, I'll personally won't care at all if his govt have been living to expectation and working to make Nigeria great.
About you first question, the north don't have to like or accept an igbo president as long as that is what the majority want (through the ballot)....same way some dislike/reject buhari but the majority spoke at the ballot.
What you should worry about is the nature of politics been played by an average SE politicians(I'll call it local champion politics if you permit me). You can play that type of politics and win all states in you domain but never can it win a presidential election. While other geopolitical zones are forming alliances with each other, SE seems to be sleeping and sometimes like it happen in 2015, they'll put their eggs in one basket. No matter what is been promised and whoever made the promise, an igbo president cannot happen in Nigeria until southeast politicians change the game and embras others/Nigeria sincerly. Politics is a game of wit my brother.

Chukazu:
I got everything.

The question also is why don't the federal government use quota system to balance the appointment of service chiefs in the military and para- military?

Why do they always use it to favor the North and undermine the East?

now you're derailing from this primary issue here..meanwhile, I'm equally worried about the inequalities in the appointments by the fg but stop being sentimental; SS, SW, NC and SE are all affected not just the east pls....even some states in NW where the president come from are bitterly complaining over maginalization.

they have started; playing politics with human lives. God is watching una

Chukazu:
In that case, it will be just to increase the slot allotted the states with the highest cut-off.

There are better things we can do to increase overall access and interest for education...not the way FG is going about it

If some people don't want to go to school, you don't force it.

you still don't get it. states with highest cut-offs are still well ahead in terms of the number of students that qualifies. The high cut-off mark is only not to overblow the capacity of those unity schools and not to shortchange any state or region...

No need to go sentimental over everything now. the question that should be answered is; are they giving the quotas that belongs to Anambra to Katsina? When you cross-check the overall candidate list entering our unity schools yearly, you'll discover that over northern brothers are far behind despite this so-called ridiculous cut off mark. The cut-off mark isn't in any way shortchanging the south pls.
I'm interested in seeing a significant increase in the literacy level in the north as the solution to the numerous violence all over the place.
We love bringing sentiment into everything in this country.

I have always insisted that we don't really need these people(the Senate) and if it is all about the legislative role in democratic settings, we can always factor a much efficient way around it...e.g, we can have a part-time system of just a single arm and they'll get paid per sittings.
We must make it less attractive as much as possible to pave way for only sincere and patriotic individuals to represent us.
As far as I'm concerned, none of them is a saint including the Sanni though he must be commended....but then, you'll still see the gullible once shouting the praises of Saraki, dino and the likes for scamming them into believing they are doing something....they are merely playing games on the intelligence of the youths especially.

Your sister should just accept her mistake, forgive herself and move on while ensuring that she never make such mistake again. That is already a fixed deposit that she cant change and all other options (like revenge) will only make her life and future miserable.
Please note that We all make mistake in life but hers may just be more stupid than others but as long as she's still alive, she can still get it right in life far than others....so, encourage her; stand by her!

.....maybe someone didn't know the meaning of "most competitive" or someone just wants to be sentimental as usual.
hmmm...what do i even know self

got into secondary school at 10, got admission into University of Lagos at 14

So they are saying he spend four years or less in secondary school and enter UNILAG @ 14 abi.....kontinu those gullible guys will kuku believe una.
what do i know self

nice one Gov. Akeredolu. Like seriously, that is what governments at all levels including him should be working toward. No colonies but ranches or grazing areas!

Wow....I admire man who will accept responsibility, accept their wrongs and apologize when necessary.
Charly boy, you just won my repect!!!

I love this. Nairaland too need restructuring. Some mods who are making this forum suck must leave...giving way for those who can turn things around here.
Guys, let's make a vote for this move; if you believe nairaland should be restructured, click yes....click share if you don't.

donstan18:
He had a plan ...But why is he complaining?, the lady is obviously a nice and good person

Some mean ladies will tell you... Thanks, drop it here and wait, my boyfriend will soon come out and give you some money for biscuit and sweet

lmao..this is wicked!

I know some pple will be quick to call out the guy but let's be realistic here, why mention boyfriend after thank you and why is the boyfriend not helping out his babe in carrying the water?
You have a boyfriend who cannot help you out in lifting water up the stair and yet you want to rub it on the face of a kind neigbhour. The lady need sense.

08189086128

Some lady can be stupid ehn...so now Facebook will solve your problem? Maybe you really don't want it solved; you just want to humilate the guy and make people see him as the devil that broke you heart; hypocritical liars!

APC was never a united party; just a bedfellow of power-hungry men and women. Never different difference from PDP; no ideology!
I am not surprised that the same fate that befalls PDP will be their lot.

Will Holy Communion make you Holy?
Is Holy Communion a guarantee for making heaven?
These are the questions you should try to answer before asking those unimportant questions you posted up there.

...

What is it to celebrate when a lot is wrong with the country?
what is it to celebrate amidst insecurity all over the country?
what is it to celebrate when the effect of poor economy is still biting hard on Nigerians?
these politicians are just too far removed from the masses that they don't understand what language the majority is speaking. Dino particularly should've known better but unfortunately, he is only a typical political hypocrite.

we'll soon see the influx of his boys trying the defend the "indefensible" because of peanuts in exchange for their future ...if the youth refused to say NO to these set of leaders, 2019 will just be a repeated history; we're just not learning!

lebete3000:
As I've said, I'll apologize to the man, even despite not seeing the wrong in what I did. I don't know if that's still pride. Cos a man who has said he'll apologize even on his sister's behalf for something he doesn't see any wrong in, yet he's still termed a selfish and arrogant person. Well it leaves much to be desired.

Perhaps I didn't make myself clear enough cos I actually wanted answers to my question but all I've gotten is insults and more confusion. Typical of man to criticise you and tell you to change, it's a sweet feeling that makes one feel better than others.

May God guide us all...SHALOM.

your apology is absolutely useless when you don't feel sorry or still won't admit you're wrong and yes it is called "pride"... I feel so much for your sister for your outright insensitivity and i really wish for God's sake you'll have an attitudinal change for good before it is too late.
someone said you need deliverance and you seem to agree in your reply but that'll be a mere waste of time, energy, and a misplaced priority if you keep refusing to have a change from within. God will never force you to change if you aren't willing to. I choose to reply you because i know you can and i'm particularly interested to see that happen.... I'm hoping i won't be disappointed.

OP, I can feel you're always like this; "feeling always right, too big to apologize for anything even when you're wrong, never willing to accept responsibility or agree you're wrong in disputes btw you and people and quick to blame others for everything no matter how absurd" but I want you to get it straight tonight that such attitudes will keep you unhappy in life as it's insensitive and very selfish. Get out of your shell, give yourself a break from low selfesteem and have a an attitudinal change for good please. God will help you if you allow Him to! Shalom!

As long as lisgislations aren't put in place to effectively put guns away from the street, mass murder isn't likely going to stop. You can't ever eat your cake and still have it. Arm the teacher's and see even teachers turning against their students. In America, freedom has been over abused in the way they apply it.

Explorer, I hail o. Good morning!
