I think SAVULE as said it all...Just ask ur self will u throw away ur relationship over this minor thing under the name of being too proud to talk...If u feel he is seeing some1 else, why not call him and ask straight to his face what is going on. Let him know u are getting a wrong vibe from his attitude and u believe he is seeing some1 else cos that will be the only reason u cud point for his attitude...This is the tricky part try and listen to the tension in his voice when he defends himself then u can tell if he is telling the truth or not...work things out

Let me start first by saying premarital sex is wrong. Now that said, its either u do it now that she wants u to or u will be surprise some guy will do it for u then u will be too shocked to blame her. You said u have disflowered a girl before, I don't know how u went abt it that made u scared but its not always easy taking away a girl's virginity cos it take lots of energy and time to do it the right way so she won't feel much hurt while u are doing it. Just do it gently and preferably do it doing her ovulation period cos her hormone will be super high making her very wet but remember to use protection if u don't want to father a baby soon.. Best of luck

Am in same shoe with u ooo, though she has never gone thar far by tearing my clothe..she gets angry easily and talks rudely to me and its ruining the relationship..her attitude is killing me, have tried so much to talk to her abt it but she has refused to change too bad I love her so much. Now am caught in the middle of breaking up the relationship am just foot dragging cos I love her so much and no sign she will change. Just tired. For christ sake wat kind of girl gets angry for asking if she does morning devotion?..sorry I derial ur thread but if u feel u can't cope with her attitude guess u need to do the needful

Relax, I knw u are worried about her not washing ur clothe but ur main concern shud be why she has not told her parent few days to the introduction..Some ladies don't like washing clothe but that does not mean she can't wash. So, u have to think deep is her character good enough for u irrespective of no wanting to wash the clothe. If yes go ahead with it but know u will have to get a washing machine or wash ur clothe ur self

True the pple of ekiti voted for fayose but what I don't like is the way he is going about it...how can u go on radio and say they shud defile the order of the present governor even if its just a day left..this is democracy u can't do that and expect pple to praise u regarding u will be sworn in a days time...pls party affiliation aside we shud call a spade a spade, what is wrong is wrong and we must all agree on that for this country to move forward...seriously, we shud stop defending what is wrong.

Seriously do this jonathan fans expect the whole country to keep quiet and support the govt irrespective of their ineptitude..Are will running a unified govt where there is no opposition?..so the opposition can't talk all in the name of been patriotic? Cos I don't know wat to make of this not supporting the govt thing..The image of this country has been damaged beyond our widest imagination. Is doing the right thing that hard for this govt?..I weep!

While using that rewinder back then I formulated a way to clean as well as rewind the cassette at same time..I will get a toilet roll dip it in a spirit then put in btw the tape and closed it, while rewinding am cleaning at same time it worked perfectly. When there is not spirit I used kerosene. It was so much fun back then

From all the comment have read here I think we need to understand few things first.1. Dancing seductive dance in the church is not allowed and shud be condemned. 2. Dancing a particular dance step to glorify God so long as its not seductive and flirticious is not bad. 3. U only dance as ur spirit leads u pending on the beat of the song.. For all those saying its wrong to dance a particular dance step that its worldly, they have fail to tell us which dance is heavenly not one of them cud tell us which dance is heavenly. Lastly, I remember growing up and dis woman in my church will always turn her back and shake her big bum bum while dance and not for one did any thought entered my head cos I knew she was dancing to glorify God and most pple at her back will just laugh at her dance..God bless u mama Oshodi(CKC ajegunle)

So satellite people full nairaland self...I will suggest learning field, they are well grounded in academics with good structure for the development of ur child.A trial will convince u cos I have family friends who attend the school. Best of luck

Someone is trying to tarnish my image in our company by sending false messages to our head office regarding me with an anonymous email because I was sent a mail from our head office telling me about anonymous person sending mail regarding my conduct at work..How do I identify the person with his/her email address..some1 shud help me. Here is the mail add hopesunny270@gmail.com... Thanks

Why Jonathan moved against me and
Governors’ Forum – Amaechi
on july 07, 2014 at 1:08 am in politics
Facebook Share Twitter Share
By Emmanuel Aziken, Political Editor
To some he is a rebel with a cause, to others he is
a spoiler bent on rocking the boat, but almost all
agree that as governor of Rivers State, Rotimi
Amaechi has performed excellently.
The model primary and secondary schools that
compare with the best in Africa, the healthcare
scheme conceived by the administration anchored
on model primary healthcare centres and
secondary healthcare facilities are among
indicators that have drawn compliments to the
pace and pattern of governance in Rivers State.
Amaechi who is also chairman of the Nigerian
Governors Forum, NGF last week hosted an
international Energy, Environment and Investment
Forum attended by some of the world’s leading
infrastructure experts. On the sidelines of the
forum, Governor Amaechi took time articulate his
agitations to visiting journalists. Excerpts:
WAS there any agreement between you and the
Federal Government that led to the release of
the Rivers State Government owned aircraft?
There was nothing like that. I didn’t even see
anybody in the Federal Government; we didn’t
even have any meeting. I just called one person. It
was not this plane they were interested in
releasing, but the (security) helicopters. I said I
wanted to sell the helicopters and the person I
called offered to talk to the president to seek the
approval of the helicopters and they got the
approval. (to bring them into the country)
And in the course of getting approval for the
helicopters, they got approval for the plane to be
released. There was no negotiation, no interface or
whatsoever other than the telephone conversation.
So, what is all this rumour that I am going to the
PDP? I have finished with the PDP.
There is the insinuation that you were planning
to run with Aminu Tambuwal?
There was nothing like that. These are fabrications
by people.
Why do political parties in Nigeria usually
abhor internal democracy and adopt consensus
for party positions?
Who did we force to step down?
Why did you ask your candidate (Sam Jaja) to
step down?
Why I asked my candidate to step down was
because I had given my commitment to Asiwaju
that I would support whichever candidate he
supported. And the reason I gave him my
commitment was because I had said to him that we
needed to look at this issue of being a Muslim
party.
Rotimi Amaechi
Commitment to Asiwaju
So, first we need to get a new chairman and he has
to be a Christian. So, he said to me: “Okay, I have
brought a Christian and according to what you said
the day we were negotiating things. Then why are
you now asking somebody to run against the
person based on the promise you made to me?”
And I like to keep promises.
In October, the number of APC governors
would have decreased by one and another
election will hold in Osun in a few weeks, what
is your party doing to avert another disaster?
You will help us to tell the president to keep the
soldiers in his house. All of us are part of the
problem of Nigeria. President impounded
newspapers and journalists did not do anything. In
another country, they would have protested on the
streets. We are talking but there is need for him
(president) to stop using soldiers to conduct
election.
Does it mean your party is afraid it may lose
Osun?
How can we lose Osun? Say something else.
Are you satisfied the country’s democracy is
evolving?
Are we not ashamed that it is still evolving; every
year it is evolving? Next year will make it 16 years
of post-Abdusalam Abubakar. When shall we
grow up?
Given the allegation of the militarisation of the
Ekiti election, what do you think is the proper
security measure for election?
The law says police and let us see the
consequences. Are you saying there are no
soldiers in Borno?
What is your take on the issue with the NJC
over appointment of Chief Judge of Rivers
State?
The quarrel we have about the NJC is that the
constitution says 10 years at the bar and that is the
only qualification for a Chief Judge. It didn’t say
whether you should be from Rivers State judiciary
or most senior Judge.
But there are recommendations by the NJC?
Yes, I agree. You send your names to the NJC.
You send three names; they pick up one and send
it to you. In our own case, they sent a name to us
and said the reason why they didn’t take the
person we preferred was because he was a Judge
of the Customary Court of Appeal and that was
what disqualified him. Then we wrote back and
said you are wrong, the law says 10 years. It
doesn’t matter where he comes from. So, I didn’t
see where you saw it must be the most senior
judge. And the court said so.
What prompted you to move out from the
normal because that has been the tradition.
It is not true. Was Teslim Elias a Judge? He was a
Professor of Law. The law says 10 years.
Won’t people read that as interference in the
judiciary?
No. It is not me. They are the people interfering.
The same law says the governor has the right to
accept your recommendation or reject. If he
rejects, he writes to you that I have rejected. I
rejected in writing and re-forwarded the name of
the person I felt by law qualified to be the Chief
Judge. They said I have no right to reject. So, you
see, I am fighting on the side of the people and I
thought journalists would join me.
You sent three names…
Yes, including hers (Justice Okocha) but we said
in this order and to help NJC, we attached the
reports on all of them – the SSS report. They said
it doesn’t matter because it is not part of the
requirement. We sent report by NBA – they all
rejected her nomination. All their comments on the
three judges were sent to them and we didn’t
favour anybody. We said these were the three
judges you said we should send and all that
informed our choice.
It is not me. Don’t forget that there is State
Judicial Council. I didn’t mind any of the three,
the only reason why I reacted was the reasons they
gave for rejecting the first person. Don’t forget
that when they sent it, I was aware and I said fine,
I don’t mind working with anyone of them. But
when they wrote to me to say we reject the
number one sent by the State Judicial Council
because he is not qualified since he was the
President of the Customary Court. I said Haba;
that is not what the law says.
The law simply says 10 years at the bar. He didn’t
say it must be a Judge or marry from Rivers State.
It didn’t say it must come from Rivers State. We
once had a Chief Judge, Justice Douglas. He was
already in Court of Appeal in Enugu when they
brought him back to Port Harcourt to be Chief
Judge.
What plans have you after office? Is it true you
have your eyes on the Senate?
I will go and love my wife because she is
harassing me every day. I have not shown her
enough love and attention, so I need to do that for
six months to one year. I will spend one or two
years with my children since they lost the chance
of staying with their father. That is three years.
Then I will be 53 years old. I will go to the
university to do another first degree either in
history or law. I will do a Masters and a PhD and
then I will be 60-something. Then the remaining
years, I will teach as I get closer to the grave.
Are you exiting the political scene?
It was Channels Television that asked me whether
I wanted to run for presidency and I said I couldn’t
answer that question. They asked why? I said
because in Nigeria nobody runs for president. You
just sit and you become president; you just see
yourself one day wake up and become president
prepared or unprepared. There were only two
persons who have emerged president by wanting
to be president of Nigeria. They were Generals
Ibrahim Babangida and Sani Abacha. So, the rest,
especially the civilian presidents sat down in their
houses and were made president. So, why not
allow me to sit down and see if I would be
president?
What are the chances of the APC in Rivers
State in 2015?
Wait and see. Just tell them to keep their soldiers
at the barracks and allow us to go and cast our
votes.
What if they bring in soldiers?
I won’t tell them what I will do. Didn’t you hear
Osun State saying carry your charms? Did you
read the story of Ombatse? Did you hear that
people were handing their guns on their own
volition?
What is the assurance that you would complete
your projects before leaving office, especially
the monorail?
Monorail would be completed. The reason the
monorail must be completed at all costs is
political. I want to ride in the monorail and call the
Amaechi haters to come and see that I am riding
on the monorail. Even if it is May 29, 2015,
people will ride on the monorail. We would hang
rail. What is delaying the monorail is just the
terminal where they would maintain it. That is
what they are fixing now, once they fix that, it will
be ready.
What about the secondary schools?
It is huge and that is the problem we had with that.
We have completed at least seven out of the 23
that we want to build. The cost is N4.5 billion per
school. It is huge and basically the financial
diversion at the national level – the oil sector has
crippled the states. All the states are being denied
money. The stealing in the oil industry is so bad.
How would you compare your first term to the
second?
First term we had money and the problem we had
in the second term is the fact that the wife of the
President is from here.
We have a situation whereby she is in direct
control of the police, SSS, Air Force. I didn’t say
she controlled it through her husband; she is in
direct control. Kidnapping is back into Port
Harcourt and how do I stop it when the forces I
used to stop them with have been removed?
Now, people cannot move freely in the state
because of kidnappers.
So how do you account for that in a situation
where the wife of the president takes over the
security? This is not the first time I am saying it; I
have said it severally and they have never denied
it. The army has not denied it, the president has
not denied it, the wife has not denied it, and the
police also have not denied it.
Since the exit of Mbu as Rivers State
Commissioner of Police, have there been any
changes?
No. The only difference is that one police
commissioner is more civilised than other but it is
still the same. You run a government whereby the
police are not working with you at all, so you can’t
even say you want to go on demolition and the
police will follow you.
What if the helicopters come in now?
Before we had a wonderful security system, so it
was the security system that gave us the control of
the state that made us to introduce helicopters
where we would have camera in the helicopters
and they can fly round the state and whatever we
see we act on it.
Brigade commander
Now, how do you manage it? You have a system
where if you go to arrest anybody; if the person
says he is PDP or working for the president with
AK 47 in his hand, they would let him go. The
army arrested seven people with AK 47 and
people are not asking, where are they? When they
were arrested, I called the brigade commander that
I heard that seven people had been arrested. He
told me that he has handed them over to police.
Where are they now?
They have been released. Police have confirmed
that they have been released and they were seen
with seven AK 47!
Why were they released?
They were released by Mbu not the current man
and that is why I said the current man is more
civilised than Mbu.
Is the Nigerian Governors Forum still effective
as a body?
What are we doing before that we are not doing
again? The only thing we were doing before that
we are not doing again is controlling the stealing
of oil money. Now, it has gone bad that nobody
can control it. Before when we saw the stealing,
we would come together and tell the President that
we don’t like the stealing.
Stealing in the oil industry
They were more careful then. So, if you say it is to
stop us from shouting against the stealing because
that was what was annoying the president that
every day we were shouting about the stealing in
the oil industry. The stealing was controlled by
then, but now the stealing has no control at all.
Beyond that, has president stopped me from what I
want to say? The answer is no because I can still
say what I want to say.
What is your succession plan and why are you
insisting the next governor should not come
from Ikwere?
I have said that severally because as an Ikwere
man, I have served for eight years.
You can’t do upland and riverine politics in Rivers
State. If you do that, it would be unfair to the
riverine people. And I have been telling my friends
who are in riverine area not to pursue that politics.
Fifteen local government areas are upland, eight
are riverine: who will win? Politics is a game of
number. So, it is not in the interest of anybody to
do riverine/upland. All you can say for now is that
it would be unfair for an Ikwere man to come back
as governor, no matter the numbers. Yes, Ikwere
people can claim that we have 1.1million votes out
of the 2.3million votes. What it means is that if
you are a patriot, allow others, give the 1.1million
votes to anybody of your choice, not to have
appropriated those votes because the number exist.
We are saying that Ikwere fought political
injustice when Bayelsa was here and by then we
used to hear about one million from Bayelsa, we
didn’t know that they are only about 600,000
people. And then the Ikwere people fought and
fought until they created the new Rivers State.
Having created the new Rivers State and you have
the highest number, the right thing to do, having
served it is for an Ikwere man to have served eight
years and we ship out since there are other groups.
There is no group that does not have qualified
candidates to govern Rivers State.
Fulfilment of agreement
When Ikwere people visited me in my first two
months as governor, I asked them to go to Dr.
Peter Odili with gifts to thank him because he was
an instrument to the realisation of an Ikwere man
as governor. They did it and I know he was
shocked because he didn’t know I sent them. He
was shocked to receive them and they thanked
him. They thanked him because he pursued it and
that was why when I was dropped, he took my
cousin (Omehia), who is also an Ikwere man in
fulfilment of that agreement.
So, once I became governor, about three or four
months later, Ikwere people came to visit me and I
told them ‘thank you for coming to see me as your
son and you are my fathers, go and thank Dr. Odili
for the realisation of your dream. You have been
dreaming to become governor and this is the first
time you are getting it.’
Now, my own dream is to leave office and not
supporting an Ikwere candidate because the reason
for which Dr. Odili supported an Ikwere candidate
was to ensure that this power rotates round the
ethnic groups in Rivers State.
Rivers has regularly harvested 2.1million votes
for the PDP. In 2015, do you think the votes in
place would be up to two million?
I am not God. We should even surpass the two
million but what I don’t know is where it will go
to, whether PDP or APC. Let us wait and see.

Like I said on another thread regarding Keshi we need continuity in the national team..appoint another coach now and we will start all over again..The fact is we don't have quality players out there, we can castigate the coach over his choice of players but one thing is for sure we don't have much quality out there, if we have some1 like Mikel will never play in the team again..I think he deserves to continue with the team

Reading from all the comment here I just come to a conclusion, must we always dispose our coaches after every tournament? Where is the continuity?. The coach might have got somethings wrong in team selection, choice of players etc but we shud remember we need no qualification to criticise. Bringing in a new coach will mean starting all over again. Take a look at the German team, joachim leow has been the coach since 2006. We need continuity and the coach can work on his mistake in previous tournament which will bring about a better and a stronger team.

I fear for this country..Imagine someone saying they shud bomb the forest and sacrifice the girls..how callous can we get, how wud the world view us, won't posterity judge all of us who voted for such actions. The blood of all those sacrificed will never forgive this country. The country has been under siege before the kidnapping why do u think it will stop now if u bomb the whole forest. We shud all find a better solution rather than this Op who is blood tasty and wish to sacrifice the life others. One question for the Op, if 2 of ur sister were involve in this will u still come out with this kind of suggestion?.God forgive us all

I survived it and am so glad....my account is still valid. Thank God nairaland is back, we will get back to the way were before the hack. Come to think I actually tot it was the FG media clamp down thing that brought abt it.

To start with, we need to flog the guy who started this thread. Etisalat bb plan is still 1k and 1k5 respectively..with the 1k plan u can only register 1 email add and u can not stream, while with the 1k5 plan u can register more than one email add as well as stream. Both plan still gives data of 3g76mb. For all those who exhausted their data before the end of the month, call customer care and ask them to deactivate it for u then sub all over again..its as simple as that..I love Etisalat

Don't u think getting married to a 19yrs old girl is far fetch?, beside are u not suppose to be concerned abt the Genotype iSsue too. Just let her be and look for some1 matured enough to understand wat marriage is all about.. Smh

Lwkmd ooo....so funny

So funny to see this topic afta I just came out from the laboratory afta donating one pant and bra of blood..lol..it was my first time and it was a little scary to being stick wit a needle. Actually felt relieved afta it was stuck in. U all shud try and volunteer to donate. I actually donated for my Dad.

Over the years the assembling media - at
least, those who were allowed into his
press conferences - were treated to plenty
of choice words from the Scotsman, who
rarely pulled his punches when
commenting on any number of subjects.
Whether the subject was rival clubs, his
managerial counterparts, Ferguson could
always be relied upon to grab the attention.
Here are some of his most memorable
quotes:
On his mission after being appointed to the
post:
"My greatest challenge is not what's
happening at the moment, my greatest
challenge was knocking Liverpool right off
their f***ing perch. And you can print
that."
On Manchester City's emergence as a
Premier League force:
"There has been a lot of expectation on
Manchester City and with the spending
they have done, they have to win
something. Sometimes you have a noisy
neighbour and have to live with it. You
can't do anything about them."
On Jose Mourinho:
"He was certainly full of it, calling me 'Boss'
and 'Big Man' when we had our post-match
drink after the first leg. But it would help if
his greetings were accompanied by a
decent glass of wine. What he gave me was
paint-stripper."
On Arsene Wenger:
"They say he's an intelligent man, right?
Speaks five languages. I've got a 15-year-
old boy from the Ivory Coast who speaks
five languages!"
On Rafael Benitez:
"I think he is very concerned about his CV,
he refers to it quite a lot."
On his bust-up with Newcastle boss Alan
Pardew:
"The press have had a field day. The only
person they have not spoken to is Barack
Obama because he is busy."
On the infamous incident during which
former midfielder David Beckham was
struck on the head by a flying boot:
"It was a freakish incident. If I tried it 100
or a million times it couldn't happen again.
If I could I would have carried on playing!"
On the mind games employed by Italian
teams:
"When an Italian tells me it's pasta on the
plate, I check under the sauce to make sure.
They are the inventors of the
smokescreen."
On AC Milan striker Filippo Inzaghi:
"That lad must have been born offside."
On seeing Ryan Giggs as a schoolboy:
"I remember the first time I saw him. He
was 13 and just floated over the ground
like a cocker spaniel chasing a piece of
silver paper in the wind."
On Wayne Rooney's decision to sign a new
contract:
"Sometimes you look in a field and you see
a cow and you think it's a better cow than
the one you've got in the field."
On Real Madrid's hopes of signing Cristiano
Ronaldo:
"Do you think I would get into a contract
with that mob? Jesus Christ, no chance. I
wouldn't sell them a virus."
On United's dramatic Champions League
final victory over Bayern Munich in 1999:
"Football, bloody hell."
On retirement:
"The decision to retire is one that I have
thought a great deal about and one that I
have not taken lightly. It is the right time."
