Congrats to her.

But why can't some of these celebs just live a normal life?

To marry & have a child is a normal thing. Why make so much secret out of it?

I remember years back, Omawumi was hiding the identity of her baby daddy as if it was some Soviet era KGB top secret.

Stegomiah:
Our celebrities need learn how to ignore criticism

You don't have to comment always

I tell ya.

Mercy could have said "Ma, the price is determined by cost price, so this price is quite moderate for the pair of shoes. It is USA/UK/Aba/Okrika/ Italy or whatever product o". It was a chance for her to advertise the shoes even more.

Do not just dismiss anyone who says the price is high. She might just be expressing what other potential customers are thinking.

In 9ja we generally have poor customer service skills. You are NEVER bigger than your customers as a general rule, not even if you're Dangote.

Fedayeen02:
Anenih gave a lotof quota for esan people to be in the police force but aside that no visible development did he lure to esan land after serving in Obj and Gej government

You are right. Anenih has always been a godfather, personal loyalty & personal reward politician. He appointed and promoted lots of his Esan godsons like Elder Ugbesia.

He could not even repair the road (FG part of it) leading to Uromi, his hometown, let alone Benin-Lagos Road as Minister of Works.

A total failure regarding development in Edo generally.

mazichika:
Accidents everywhere and everyday!

Buhari do something on our roads.
Or you want to remain a dullard?


RIP to the dead.

9ja's case seems irredeemable. No single sector works. To be fair this failure has accumulated over decades.

Where do we even start? Light, /transport/roads/accidents, rotten healthcare, education, crime/Law & order, poverty/hunger, bad economy, joblessness, hopelessness?

A brave govt starts one by one, with the most urgent first. But it seems there is urgency in every sector right now.

W cannot continue like this. If we do, the implosion that will ensue will be pathetic.

BekeeBuAgbara:
Coming from a coup plotter himself, what an irony.

Pure hypocrisy.

madapcmod:
Could be Cyanide. Most ppl in d village often die of cyanide poisoning bc d commonest food eaten there is cassava. Abacha (cassava flakes) not well prepared has wiped out many families.

I remember the one that happened years ago in Anambra, the whole family died after they ate cassava that was not prepared well, ppl started suspecting foul till autopsy report confirmed cyanide poisoning

I wonder o. Only toxicology can tell. Eating certain species of cassava cooked as tuber can release a lethal dose of hydrocyanic acid. It kills goats easily, also humans.

Faulty old electrical appliances may also release carbon monoxide. All have to be explored first.

blaquemyc:
why blast BBC when our leaders cant do the right thing

I wonder o.

Dem nor laugh reach.

Who will not laugh at foolishness.

How often have you seen oyinbo leader coming to use our agbo jedi jedi for their belle wahala?

Or even come to use LUTH, UCH, UBTH, UNTH or any other hospital in 9ja?

Like many things Jesus said, he was speaking in parables. Remember that most people were hard working manual workers then, parts of the body were indeed very precious, just like now.

Losing hands and legs in a time without technology for travelling, farming, braille and so on was almost like death sentence from destitution.

In essence, no matter how important or pleasurable the things are that make you sin and separate you from God, you should give them up. So we must pay a price and make important sacrifice to stay on the path of righteousness.

one-half na.

AnonyNymous:
Its not about the price, but about the quality. . . I was lucky enough to attend a private elementary school in the US where the school fees per semester were just $800 (equivalent to N80,000 at the time). But I can CONFIDENTLY say that the quality of education I received was far more than all these private schools in Lagos that basically write exams for the kids. . .

The price is steep though. Certainly by 9ja standards/average income.

We still complain that UK boarding schools charge around £19K to £25k on average per year. Comparing average incomes, it is far more moderate. And the standards are usually very high.

HungerBAD:
Not again.

May God never let this woman ever carry the joy of the womb again.

Amen.

No. If anything pray for her to retrace her steps and fulfil her motherly role to this innocent child.

Things happen for a reason. Thank God it survived & therefore not too late.

As condemnable as her action is, she still needs our prayer. And do not forget, the child's father might be in cahoots.

Even Moses in the Bible was given up for reasons beyond his mother's control then. But became one of the greatest saints.

Nothing special here.

Generous & industrious donatus runs girls in higher institutions can match that figure (5,000) in just 4 years. To afford 70k Peruvian hair, Iphones, Gucci/YSL/CC and other luxuries.

mystic70563:
oil money

I tell ya.

IBB and co made certain people rich o.

What exactly is her achievement? Genetic ties with Linda?

Some people are stupid sha.

The arrogance of some of our women really shows when they have some money in their pockets.

habby51:
See u, Op is a polytechnic graduate.
Truth 2 be told, does are the facts.
Our polytechnics needs 2 be reformed.

I think universities need even more reform. To focus more on research, the mainstay of any country that seeks true diversification of the economy. Too much theory & cramming right now.

Over the past 20 years, Chinese PhD students massively populate UK & American schools. They pay the high fees but take lots of knowledge in STEM back home. We had one working/researching with one of the top (few) experts/professors in Biosensors many years back. They can even barely speak English. But they get the research done.

I won't be surprised if that guy/associates now run a company producing cheap diagnostic biosensors/machines for export, that Western companies cannot price match.

dandecent:
When will dis discrimination end? Uni or poly, u're judged by wat u carry upstairs. the labour market doesn't give a shit.

Lol. 9ja is a very funny place. Both have different remits. Polytechnics were intended to produce technically trained staff for 9ja industry and mid level personnel. University to produce more academic and professional cadre workforce.

But polys now churn out gazillion ONDs in non-technical art courses. Universities not doing much better.

You now have students just studying whatever, wherever because that was what they got admitted to.

1miccza:
And funny enough i haven't

OK. You are a natural born "elder " then.

1miccza:
Lolz you didn't even care to ask if i had ever met any of my grand parents

Lol. It does not have to be your biological ones. It can be people of similar standing. Or relative age.

1miccza:
Hahahahahahahhahahha iya agba ke

Yes o. You must hv been listening to grandma's proverbs.

oshaosha2014:
lol. they have so many definitions of real men that men themselves don't know how to define themselves anymore. They want to tell you that if you act this way you are a real man... that's bonfage, any man that allows a woman to control his action by their immature definition of him.

Have plenty of dough and you are a real man any day.

Women need to first know what a real woman is, try to be one, before worrying about a real man.

Omo Iya Agba and parable.

jennyswt:
See them perverts.. Abeg there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Real men don't have a hard on for their blood. Whether she's stark unclad or not, it doesn't concern them

Back in the day, no biggie. Even a cousin or a girl from a different tribe but we grew up as neighbours. Neighbours were often introduced outside as "sister" or " brother". Such innocence would now be called primitive.

And there used to be the notion of "taboo or abomination". But modern life has turned things upside down.

Such position in bed is now strictly for lovers.

But then again, when your president goes to London to treat ear infection, celebs, elite and even royalties go abroad for treatment and are "boxed" back home, how will that inspire trust or confidence in 9ja's future?

So FG basically has no money. Why?

Shebi people tell us here that ND oil is irrelevant now.

Why can't they use taxes, duties and all those other income from other sources?

Ok the "Bring Back Our Girls " propaganda lady just appointed NPA boss will bring FG plenty money.

Government of excuses & darkness.

Being a pastor means having power over people and power makes randy.

A powerful person generally becomes sexy to women. Whether political, economic, corporate or spiritual business power.

See Oshiomhole and his wife.

Sad for the young lady.

janellemonae:
Nigerians don't read.

Shame.

Sanudi is basically saying the minister of powers hands are tied because the dams are controlled by the ministry of water resources, gas for turbines are controlled by the ministry of petroleum, the price of electricity is controlled by the NERC, and d supply to homes is controlled by DISCOs because PHCN was privatized.

He is basically making excuses on behalf of d ministry of power (and indirectly supporting fashola). He's saying the ministry should have more powers as d minister of power doesn't have any say concerning d aspects of power availability.

I said exactly so here earlier but I have been told that I do not understand the political undertone in Sanusi's message. We have become so suspicious in 9ja that we like to decipher the cryptic message even in "good morning".

onatisi:
So u cant read the political handwriting
The first is to show how helpless the man is,they will then move him to another ministry.
Have you forgotten the bola ige power ministry saga during obj tenure?

To be honest, having looked at how poorly managed various departments are, I believe BRF was handed a poisoned chalice of a ministry. Maybe not purposely but it is one of those positions you can still fail even after making massive efforts.

I have to admit that failing being president, I wanted Fash to have these three merged positions and be a quasi prime minister. Even before election last year. Coincidentally Buhari did.

You know what, taking him to another ministry could be politically good for Fash. Maybe a place he can excel quicker. Because at the rate things are going, I have serious doubts that he can significantly change light situation or even lay a solid enough foundation in the next 2 years and 10 months.

No guarantee he will be there after May 2019.

olalekan1:
Mr. Sanusi, the job of the Power Minister is to coordinate and make sure targeted results are achieved. He is not in charge of Gas and damn does not mean he can not coordinate and use his brain to achieve result, atleast he is in charge of fund budgeted for Power. So spare me the crap

Actually I think Emir's speech highlights Fashiola's challenges.

Ok you seem to opine that the minister has no excuses. Fine.

Ol boy, you're in luck. Congrats! Abeg befriend your future father-in-law quickly. Get useful tips on how to flourish as a servant, maiguard, errand boy and the like in your own house.

Una commentators sef too funny. This dude wants reassurance that all will be fine, that the man deserves his fate, that as long as the he behaves himself, his future wife will not do such to him, yada yada yada. Oblige him na.

He has proposed, he must marry na. Proposed to a woman whose home he knew nothing about, not even if her Dad was dead or alive.

If my junior brother dare ask this kind of help from me, I will use kokobo to design his body and reset/format his brain again.

Haba!

Hehehehehe.
