I'm too Emotional to watch Boxing Live.
But this Man was not there to support our own Joshua den Oooo.
To watch ds Match might feed 2000 families who want to die of hunger oooo

Boxing is a Sport just like football and most Fans of Sports do not based their activities on the Country they are from. I believe most Nigerian Chelsea or Arsenal fans might support their clubs in a match against Nigeria. As for the money, more than 90% of it will be left behind when he is dead, so if this little Self Indulgence makes him happy so be it. I hope you also give Part of your Money to support poor people oh grin Cos I do and I also believe every body alive can give and not just the Billionaires alone. Bless

As much some of these happened under GEJ, it is safe to say that Buhari's current administration can best be described as a "military junta" when compared to that of GEJ's.

GEJ is still the king of freedom of expression.

As you are aware this is the WORLD WIDE WEB which means the entire Globe can access this Write up of yours, so for those of us Nigerians that are in the Diaspora can you please provide Verifiable FACTS to back your post just as the op did? Thanks

Politics / Re: Boko Haram Terrorists Ambush Soldiers In Borno, Scores Feared Killed by Aragon: 3:18pm On Aug 24, 2017
teemy:
am yet to know what their current objectives are. all i hear now is they kill and are being killed but to what purpose?

Like most terrorists Boko Haram claims to be Fighting a WAR that will take out the current system of things and Establish an Islamic republic or Caliphate. But the Truth is it's leader Shekua is a Mad man with actually no Ideology that should be locked up in a Sanitarium cos more than 90% of his victims are Muslims as he goes about Blowing up Mosques, Blowing up IDF Camps that are 95% Muslims, strapping Teenage Muslims girls to blow up people so how can he be Muslim or even claim to represent Islam? Go to Youtube and watch a BBC Documentary on him and you will learn more about the Madman. How he wouldn't listen to his teachers and one day wakes up and declears himself Imam.

When it comes to the screen, The Silmarillion would be the greatest thriller ever.

From what I read, it will be impossible to Film the Silmarillion as the story is too long and Complex however they said they can make Good Stand alone movies from the Different stories in the Silmarillion

To hell with all the bigots that says Nigeria is united. I bet you if nothing happen between now and 2019, Nigeria will face the 2nd civil war but will be cold and bloody this time around.

No there will be no WAR in Nigeria! The current Youths are only Internet warriors that Insults and fight with each others on Social Media so where is that War going to come from? Ojukwu was in the Millitary, which means he has boys Loyal to him. His father was a Billonaire and with that he financed a War! With all the impunities of State governors, have you seen anybody done anything? What about NASS making so much money just by sleeping and sitting down. What have they done since they were elected? I mean everybody said the 8th NASS is the worst Nigeria has ever gotten...and after that they come online to Fight and Insult each others. If there will be WAR, lets see a tiny bit of Action, people should put their governors on Lock Down or didnt you see Kogi State governor giving a Public holiday cos the President is back. Do you know how much Revenue a State looses in just one Day? Not even President Buhari will support such Madness... And what has the people of Kogi State done apart from coming online to Fight and Insult each others?... Even if some people want to make a lil Noise, and they throw Millions at them you will see these same people betraying each others and fighting each others. They have not given them anything and they are already insulting each others online, wait untill they give your friend one million and see if he wont abandon you. Thats Nigeria for you Period

John Rhys-Davies, Gimli


“Nobody tosses a Dwarf!”


In Peter Jackson’s filmseries, Rhys-Davies stars as Gimli, son of Glóin, and he also provided the voice of the Ent, Treebeard.

Rhy-Davies, that played the Dwarf Gimil is almost like a Giant in real life... Very Huge.

Peter Jackson is truly Awesome for bringing this Complex story to the Big screen..... There are many more stories of Tolkien and I pray they make it to the big screen someday, though Tolkien's Son and costodian of his Estate is very much against that, while his own Son is very much in support. The Theory now is, he is Old! And if he passes away and hands over the Estate to his Son, his son might allow more movies to be made from the many stories written by the Tolkiens... So it's many IF's grin

Elijah Wood, Frodo.


The Ring Bearer.


Was the youngest of the main cast, only 18 years old when filming began on Fellowship.

He brought the youthful spirit that Frodo needed, but Wood was also able to portray the intense struggle and dark change that the Ring brings upon him, switching from an almost possessed-like state to a happy hobbit within seconds.

It was for this talent that from 2001–2004, he deservedly won multiple awards for his outstanding performance in the Rings trilogy.

Frodo did an outstanding job

"The world has changed, i feel it in the water, i feel it in the earth, i smell it in the air.

Much that once was is lost.

For none now live who remember it.

It began with the forging of the great rings.

Three were given to the elves, immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings.

Seven to the Dwarf Lords, great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls.

And nine, nine rings were gifted to the race of men, who above all else desired power.

For within these rings was bound the strength and will to govern each race.

But they were all of them deceived, for another ring was made, in the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, the dark Lord Sauron forged in secret.

A master ring, to control all others and into this ring, he poured his cruelty, his malice, and his will to dominate all life.

One ring to rule them all.


One by one the free lands of Middle-earth fell to the power of the ring.

But there were some who resisted.

A last alliance of men and elves marched against the armies of Mordor and on the slopes of Mount Doom, they fought for the freedom of Middle-earth.

Victory was near but the power of the ring could not be undone.

It was in this moment when all hope had faded that Isildur, son of the King, took up his father's sword.....


Sauron, the enemy of the free peoples of Middle-earth was defeated.


The ring passed to Isildur, who had this one chance to destroy Evil forever.

But the hearts of men are easily corrupted.

And the ring of power has a will of its own.

It betrayed Isildur to his death.

And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost.

History became legend, legend became myth and for two and a half thousand years, the ring passed out of all knowledge until, when chance came, it ensnared a new bearer.

The ring came to the creature Gollum who took it deep into the tunnels of the misty mountains and there it consumed him.

The ring brought to Gollum unnatural long life.

For five hundred years, it poisoned his mind.

And in the gloom of Gollum's cave, it waited.

Darkness crept back into the forests of the world.

Rumour grew of a shadow in the East, whispers of a nameless fear and the ring of power perceived its time had now come.

It abandoned Gollum.

But something happened that the ring did not intend.

It was picked up by the most unlikely creature imaginable: a Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins of the Shire.

For the times will soon come when Hobbits will shape the fortunes of all........" (Galadriel)
