That is the end.. End of cinema.. No aftermath thinking.. grin grin grin


rbekins: Let me help you here. I will take her to a good eatery, if possible i may prefer going to a Chines restaurant cuz it has to be some thing different and unique. With a exotic cocktail. After that, you can move down for a beach side walk, holding hands and cuddling same time. From there straight to your house but make sure you keep a current Cinema movie ready with a bottle of red wine (specifically). Use a good nut to offer her the drink, watch movie with her or you may choose to move down to Cinema after the Chines food. I think it really a good fun day with these.
PoliticsJoseph Mbu Orders The Detention Of AIT Senior Correspondent Amaechi Anakwue by argon500(op): 12:45am On Oct 03, 2014
High ranking Nigeria police officer Joseph Mbu, has ordered the arrest and detention of a journalist for describing him as “controversial” on a TV programme.
The journalist, Amaechi Anakwe, a reporter cum presenter for the African Independent Television, AIT, was detained Thursday morning after he reported at the Zone 7 police headquarters in Abuja, on the invitation of Mr. Mbu.

Mr. Mbu had demanded to see the journalist shortly after he described him as controversial on a TV programme on his station, Matters Arising.
Mr. Anakwe’s colleague told PREMIUM TIMES the police officer sent in the first call for the reporter last Friday.
It was turned down on technicalities after the media house complained the letter inviting Mr. Anakwe was addressed to the reporter in his personal capacity.
A subsequent invitation was served on the media house on Monday.
Mr. Anakwe and the Chief security Officer of the AIT were subsequently dispatched to see Mr. Mbu on Tuesday.
After a long wait for the police officer who was said to be in the presidential villa, both men were asked to report back the following day.
Mr. Anakwe was seized on their second visit.
“I think it has to do with the culture and level of impunity that Mbu has been allowed to exhibit right from his days as police commissioner in Rivers state to today,” Imoni Mac-Amarere, Executive Director, News and Current Affairs at AIT, said.

Spokesperson of the Zone 7 police command, which Mr. Mbu now heads, could not be reached for comments.
But the overall spokesperson for the Nigeria Police, Emmanuel Ojukwu, told PREMIUM TIMES the issue has been “resolved”.
When asked if it is right for journalists to be arbitrarily detained by the police, he said: “I am saying we have resolved the issues. That’s all!”
Mr. Mbu, recently promoted to the rank of Assistant Inspector General, was a former commissioner of police in the Niger Delta state of Rivers.
He was pulled out of Rivers to head the Abuja police command – shorty before his promotion – after he had protracted face-off with that state’s governor who accused him of siding with the presidency and the ruling Peoples Democratic Party to undermine him.

Both Mr. Mbu and the Rivers governor, Rotimi Amaechi, recently tore at each other publicly with the later accusing the the police officer of unpatriotic allegiance to the wife of the president, Patience Jonathan. That comment was in reaction to Mr. Mbu’s who described himself as a lion who tamed the governor, a leopard.
“I cannot understand why an individual like Mbu is allowed to remain in the police to continue to tarnish the image of the force and its officers. It’s unbelievable!” Mr. Amarere told PREMIUM TIMES when asked of the implications of Mr. Mbu’s detention of his colleague.

PoliticsNigeria 54th Independence: Do We Learn From Our Lessons? by argon500(op): 1:44pm On Oct 02, 2014
It's never easy to admit you've made a mistake, but it's a crucial step in learning, growing, and improving yourself. Making mistakes isn't the same thing as being stupid. We have a tendency to blame ourselves, or believe ourselves to be stupid for committing errors. But this simply is wrong. When we recognize our errors, we can course-correct.

You can only learn from a mistake after you admit you've made it. As soon as you start blaming other people (or the universe itself), you distance yourself from any possible lesson. But if you courageously stand up and honestly say "This is my mistake and I am responsible" the possibilities for learning will move towards you. Admission of a mistake, even if only privately to yourself, makes learning possible by moving the focus away from blame assignment and towards understanding. Wise people admit their mistakes easily. They know progress accelerates when they do.

Honestly to me, Nigeria celebrated 54th year of nothing to show off. Even though it is never too late to wake up from our slumber but so really have the courage?

2015 is around the corner. Let us put our political affiliation, religious and ethnicity apart. Nigeria belongs to us all.

God bless Nigeria!!!

PoliticsEx-militants Pledge To Raise Campaign Funds For Jonathan, Purchase Governor Dick by argon500(op): 12:30am On Oct 02, 2014
Prominent ex-militants from the oil-producing Bayelsa State today announced a plan to contribute three months of their allowances to President Goodluck Jonathan's campaign funds and to purchase the nomination form for the 2016 re-election of Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State. According to the plan, each of the 6,166 ex-militants from Bayelsa State will pitch in their monthly allowances of N65,000 towards raising N10.5 million in campaign funds for Mr. Dickson and President Jonathan.

They said the funds would go towards procuring an "expression of interest form for the governor and raise campaign posters for Mr. Jonathan ahead of the 2015 presidential elections.

Many of the ex-militants, who belonged to the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND), had waged a fierce battle against Nigeria's security forces to push their demands for control of the crude oil resources in the area. But following an amnesty program initiated by the regime of former President Umaru Yar'Adua, some of the former militants have become stupendously wealthy even as the vast majority of their erstwhile foot soldiers, who received little or nothing from the amnesty deal, wallow in abject poverty.

The decision by the ex-militants to invest in Mr. Jonathan and Governor Dickson's re-election campaigns, is seen as a deft scheme to remain politically relevant in order to continue feathering their nests. Even so, many aggrieved foot soldiers are seething with rage and awaiting the election time to demand their pound of flesh by unleashing acts of violence in the delta.

One of the disaffected ex-militants told SaharaReporters that the big profiteers from the era of militant resistance were seeking political patronage by investing in President Jonathan's re-election bid. He said the ex-militants wish to persuade Mr. Jonathan to extend the amnesty deal due to lapse in 2015.

The ex-militants stated that the decision to forego three months allowances was their expression of gratitude for what they described as noticeable infrastructural development and sound economic policies at both the state and the federal levels.

The group's chairman, Stephen Ebisintei, and deputy chairman, Salvation Rufus, told newsmen in Yenagoa, the Bayelsa State capital, that they reached their decisions at a general meeting today.

The ex-militants described President Jonathan and Governor Dickson as catalysts who have accomplished unprecedented feat and thus deserve re-election.

"There is no vacancy in Aso Rock come 2015 and in Creek Haven come 2016," the ex-militants said. They added: "We agreed to contribute our three months allowance to support our father and leader, President Goodluck Jonathan's election, as well buy the expression of interest form for Governor Seriake Dickson for the 2015 guber election in Bayelsa.

"As far as we are concerned, no Nigerian leader has worked like the incumbent President."

They listed transformation in the energy sector, aviation, road rehabilitation, railway, as well as a peaceful political landscape aimed at securing a better Nigeria for posterity as part of the achievements of the Jonathan administration.

The ex-agitators also lauded the developmental strides of the Dickson administration and urged all those angling for the Creek Haven, the Bayelsa State seat of power, to abandon their ambitions.

"It will amount to [an] effort in futility to dislodge the governor due to his unprecedented achievements in less than three years. Those planning to occupy Creek Haven should look elsewhere," said the ex-militants.

They also praised Kingsley Kuku, the special adviser to the President on Niger Delta and coordinator of the presidential amnesty program, for his dedication to the amnesty deal. They said the program had brought about an enduring peace in the Niger Delta.

PoliticsOkonjo-iweala Says Weapons Have Arrived For Nigerian Troops To Fight Boko Haram by argon500(op): 12:03am On Oct 02, 2014
Nigeria's Minister of Finance Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, on Tuesday day said the federal government has acquired new military equipments to confront insurgency in the North-East.

Speaking to journalists after presenting relief materials to victims of Boko Haram attacks at the NYSC Orientation Camp in Girei, Adamawa State, she said new military hardware purchased by the government had arrived the country, expressing hope that the insurgency would soon be crushed as the money being invested in the fight is translating into victory.

She said the recent victory by Nigerian soldiers in Konduga testified to the ability of the Nigerian military, and Nigerians should rally round government and the military to achieve maximum results.

She added that the decision to procure modern equipment was borne out of the commitment to improve the capability of the military to deal with terrorism.

Some of the victims said their towns were still under the grip of Boko Haram fighters, and urged the federal government to act decisively.

A victim, Alhaji Madu, urged the federal government to step up efforts in the war against Boko Haram as the country has the military might to win the war.

“For how long are we living here and when are we going back to our homes? We appreciate the assistance but the best thing to do is sending Boko Haram out of Gwoza, Madgali, Michika and other places they are holding,” he said.

According to one of my brother, he said " Only a fool fight for the masses ( Nigeria) . I thought to myself after I had the word, 'this bros is not patriotic at all' .
Not until I started experiencing what he meant by his word. Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria . We keep on doing same mistake all the time.
@op, you hit the nail on the head. Kudos!
I believe they say ''If plan A doesn't work, the alphabet has 25 more letters - 204 if you're in Japan.''
Not until we come together as one, these same old cargo/cabal would continue rotating themselves and their family on us.

I dedicate this song to Nigeria for her independence day.

Nobody cares, no one's concerned
We all stand watching while the city burns
Some are jumping from the windows.
Some are crying in the street
And the situation's worsening
While the chasms getting deep
The Church cried out "Have mercy!"
The Mosque cried out "haba Allah
The masses halla "it go better"
How did the cat get so fat?

A good leader always teaches about forgiveness, (not fighting)
A good leader guides the people through the path of love, (just teach them love)
A good leader doesn't fight against the fighter, But instead teach them a lesson not to be like them.
A good leader doesn't promote on mass destruction,
A good leader works on self issues before the others,
A good leader is not a blamer but a compassionate soul,

PoliticsNigeria, One Of Africa’s Worst Governed Countries – Mo Ibrahim Governance Index by argon500(op): 11:59am On Oct 01, 2014
Nigeria has been rated one of the worst governed countries in Africa based on the 2014 Ibrahim Index of African Governance [IIAG], which was released on Monday.

In the report, obtained by PREMIUM TIMES, Nigeria is rated 45.8 per cent lower than the African average (51.5 per cent) and ranked 37th out of 52 in the overall governance scale.
The country scored lower than the regional average for West Africa which stands at 52.2 percent and ranked 12th out of 15 in the region.
While Nigeria got the damning rating by the IIAG, Mauritius is adjudged the best governed country in Africa, with 81.7 per cent, followed by Cape Verde, with 76.6 percent.

IIAG is sponsored by the Mo Ibrahim Foundation, MIF, a non-grant making organisation committed to defining, assessing and enhancing governance and leadership in Africa. It presents annual assessments of the quality of governance in African countries. It also provides the framework for citizens, governments, institutions and the private sector to assess accurately the delivery of public goods and services, and policy outcomes, across the continent.

Other countries that made it to the top of the list included Botswana which is rated the third best governed country in the continent with 76.2 percent and South Africa which comes fourth with 73.3 percent.
Ghana is rated 7th; Rwanda 11th; Benin Republic 18th; Egypt 26th; Mali 28th; Niger, 29th; Liberia; 31st; Cameroun 34th and Togo 36th; all ahead of far more endowed Nigeria.

With a population of 173.6 million and population growth rate pegged at 2.8 percent, Nigeria’s Gross Domestic Product, GDP, is put at $3013.3 USD, while inflation and unemployment rates stand at 8.5 percent and 13.7 percent, respectively.
Nigeria also received appalling ratings in such categories such as safety and the rule of law where it is rated 44th with 38.1 per cent, 32nd in the rule of law with 41.0 percent and 30th in accountability with 36.6 percent.
The country got its lowest rating in personal safety where it is ranked 49th with 16.5 per cent and second lowest in national security where it is ranked 48th with 58.2 per cent.

Under participation and human rights, the country is rated 26th with 46.9 per cent, 31th on sustainable economic opportunity with 43.3 per cent and 34th in human development with 53.0 per cent.
The Founder and Chair, Mo Ibrahim Foundation, Mo Ibrahim said the 2014 IIAG has revealed discrepancies in governance performance between countries and within the four conceptual categories.
“More than ever, these discrepancies call for an Afro-realist approach, which tempers historical Afro-pessimism and current Afro-optimism,” Mr. Ibrahim said.

To have a true grasp of African realities, he argued that one must reject the “one-size-fits-all” attitude, which he said, reduces the continent geographically or governance conceptually, in favour of a more granular approach.

RomanceLack Of Self-confidence And Feeling Bad After Break-ups by argon500(op): 9:50am On Oct 01, 2014
Did someone dump you?
Do you feel bad about it?
Wondering whether he truly loved you or whether he was just fooling you?

If your answers were yes then don't worry because this post will show you the real reasons behind these bad feelings and help you get over them.

According to the psychology of love most people fall in love with others just to compensate for their unmet needs or for their inferiority feelings.

In other words, they don’t actually love the other person but they love the feelings they get when they compensate for their weaknesses. Of course most people won't be consciously aware of this fact but they will just find themselves attracted to a person without knowing why.

For example, a girl who has a poor self image (not sure about her looks) will definitely love a handsome guy just to feel that she can be loved by someone who is good looking and who has no self image problems.

But what if that guy dumped her? Certainly she will feel down but do you know why?
Because she lost her source of compensation. She doesn't think that she will be able to find another handsome guy who loves her back.

It's actually her inferiority feelings that made her feel bad and not the break-up itself.

Rushing into a relationship will certainly provide you with some relief but this will never solve the problem.

It will just suppress the symptoms or make them less intense but as soon you break up with your partner the problems will appear again. If you want to get over these feelings of self doubt and sadness forever then you need to fix your self image and learn how to love yourself. Only then you not feel that bad after breakups.

Of course feeling bad after a breakup doesn't always mean that you have a self image problem but certainly you have another kind of weakness that is making you feel down. Deal with it and you will feel great.

Lack of self-confidence is the root cause of ninety nine percent of the problems people face in life. Trace any problem you have ever faced to its root and you will find lack of self-confidence to be one of the causes.

Whether it's a break-up or another problem, fixing your self-confidence can probably make it disappear. If the girl in the previous example had been more confident she wouldn’t have needed someone to reassure her of her looks and she may have not fell in love with that person at all
RomanceGuys Gisting: Would You Marry A R.aped Girl? by argon500(op): 7:59pm On Sep 30, 2014
This question is intriguing because it pokes your superficial persona and reaches out to your soul, where you’re left with only two choices: yes or no. Would you marry a rape survivor? or Would you allow your son to marry a rape survivor?

To me, I believe marriage is about love and compatibility, s.ex is secondary. If a person can marry a divorcee or a widow how does it matter if she has been raped. I think the question itself is wrong.

Punish the rapist, not the survivor.
RomanceWhat Is Your Idea Of A Romantic Date? by argon500(op): 7:25pm On Sep 30, 2014
To me, I believe it is something you both enjoy in an environment where you can pay attention to each other, talk, touch, kiss.

So: Dinner at a quiet restaurant. Walking somewhere nice - beach, mountains, etc. Boating on a lake, Exploring a city (either far away, or your hometown), Dancing, Picnics.

I think its not: going to a loud club where you can't hear each other talk. Doing something in a large group. Adventure sports - need to concentrate on the sport, not your partner.
RomanceSingle Only: How Long Have You Been Single For? by argon500(op): 11:35am On Sep 30, 2014
There comes a time in your life when you may have everything going for you: work is going great (oh look! another promotion!); Scandal just uploaded another season onto Youtube; the sushi place down the block now delivers! Yet there seems to be a lull in the romance department – for some odd reason, you just have been single for quite some time and it really hadn’t bothered you. Until you start to agree with some of the following:

1. You forgot how to kiss or what it feels like to have lips against yours
2. You haven’t shaved your legs to the point where you could knit a nice sweater
3. When friends ask you to go out on Friday nights, you lie and say you have “things to do”
4. You live vicariously through your friend’s relationships and ask for keen details about their sex lives
5. Masturbation might actually work but you really have to use your imagination

There is still hope. So get out of bed and go out for drinks with that cute guy in the cubicle across from you. I understand being single is a blessing in ways that it keeps one doing things they want to independently, getting to know new things, realize who they are better, etc etc

Good and Bad. Stuggle for everyone single or in a relationship, as we have to work on things in both. Bliss? Where to find it? Only if you work on yourself or your relationship...or finally after working on yourself, find that good relationship ..that will hopefully last??
Nairaland GeneralWould You Marry A Man Or Woman With Tattoos? by argon500(op): 10:59am On Sep 30, 2014
Tattoos seems to have negative feelings in Nigeria. Would you marry a woman/man with a tattoo? Or would you allow you spouse to get a tattoo?

If so, would it depend on the size of the tatt, the type (traditional religious or modern), the placement, or all of the above.

For me, the female body is beautiful enough in its natural state. No need for tattoos or piercings. And then there's the fact the rest of society may well look down on her or suspect a shady past if she has a tattoo. Just look at the mess Angelina Jolie made of her beautiful body. And yet it sparked a craze for female tattoos in Nigeria. Does anyone think full body tattoos are actually erotic? Ugh!
Seeing people with tattoos as rough, dangerous and ill-mannered.

FamilyOnly For Married People: How Do You Manage Your Home? by argon500(op): 9:33am On Sep 30, 2014
In every home, there are' resources which are to be utilized in such a way to get the best of results. Home-management deals with the practical application of the principles of management in the home. It is in fact a dynamic process, where by values are nurtured and wants satisfied. Here decisions are taken regarding the planned activity, taking care of the physical, psychological, spiritual, social, economical and technological aspects of family life. So, it is a mental process dealing with the administrative aspect of family living. Through management process, one is able to identify and locate available resources and use them effectively for the attainment of family goals.

Having a married couple as your neighbor might be interesting sometimes. The love sharing, the happiness, the sadness and most of it all the drama. All couples have areas of difference and incompatibility, to greater and lesser degrees. It's been said that when couples with "irreconcilable differences" part ways, they are just trading in one set of five to seven differences for a different set of similar magnitude with their next partner.

Everyone knows that opposites attract. Differences can be very interesting and stimulating in your partner. We often seek partners who can complement our style with some of their strengths. The socially active partner brings something valuable to a relationship with the partner whose interests are more domestic, and vice versa.

Couples with more differences have different styles of marriage than couples that are more similar in outlook. But they can be just as happy or even happier. Couples who have a successful 'volatile' relationship style can tolerate more areas of difference. Their conflicts just seem to offer more opportunity to kiss and make up. At the other end of the spectrum are successful 'avoidant' couples. (It's not as bad as it sounds.) They know what areas of steer clear of with their partner and accept this arrangement. But avoidance only works well when differences aren't too critical and there are large areas of common ground.

Partners who are less well prepared to support themselves may turn the conflict into a fight or may give in to avoid one. It's very important to the success of a marriage relationship that partners learn to adequately support and validate themselves, so they can deal productively with conflict with their partner without putting aside their own vital needs and interests. We all need a sense of security and a mature perspective to understand ourselves well enough to know when to compromise with our partner and when we have to stand our ground. Personal strength and a strong, non-defensive sense of identity help us tolerate our anxiety while our partner goes through this same process.

The demands of a long-term, committed marriage relationship guide us toward developing these qualities. Few people bring this personal strength to their new marriage fully formed, and it doesn't happen overnight. This is one of the reasons why many marriages go through a rough patch early on while the partners are growing and developing their self-support and self-validation.

Here comes the question, how do you manage your home? I mean your partner, your kids, your in-laws, your family and sometimes balancing work with life. Please, share your experience

RomanceLove Story- Burned Biscuit by argon500(op): 11:37pm On Sep 27, 2014
When I was a little child, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then. And I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work.

On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burned biscuits in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was reach for his biscuit, smile at my mom and ask me how my day was at school. I don’t remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that biscuit and eat every bite!

When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits. And I’ll never forget what he said: “Baby, I love burned biscuits.”

Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if he really liked his biscuits burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, “Your Momma put in a hard day at work today and she’s real tired. And besides – a little burned biscuit never hurt anyone!”

Moral of the story- You know, life is full of imperfect things… and imperfect people. I’m not the best housekeeper or cook. What I’ve learned over the years is that learning to accept each other’s faults – and choosing to celebrate each other’s differences – is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship. And that’s my prayer for you today!

Jobs/VacanciesWhat Do You Do For A Living? Show Your Handiwork by argon500(op): 8:34pm On Sep 27, 2014
This question tends to evoke either fear and stomach knots or an eagerness that borders on fanaticism in those of us who work for ourselves in creative fields.

It can be hard to describe what you do quickly and clearly both in person or on your website/blog. You need to find a balance between clarity and curiosity. Most importantly, you need to make your answer about other people.

Your answer should be an opening volley to a conversation that the other person actually wants to have. If you describe what you do well, there’ll be more questions asked and more importantly, the other person will remember, share or even end up (further down the road) giving you money.

But honestly, some professions are not easy to describe.. What do you think of an arm robber, kidnapper, prostitute, Yahoo yahoo e.t.c

As for me, I am an e-marketer. I make my money online. I spent nothing less than 10 hours online on a daily basis. Even reading news on NL fetch me some money... Don't ask me why..

I just love my job.. Being boss of myself, no need of waking up early, or thinking of any boss. No pressure.. Just that sometimes, being your own boss might be difficult to balance with life. May be cos I am an introvert.

How about you, what do you do for a living? are you a Tailor, Mechanic, Carpenter, Doctor, Teacher, Engineer or you are a politician? Show your handwork
RomanceI Was In An Emotionally Abusive Relationship by argon500(op): 7:56pm On Sep 27, 2014
It was the night before Valentine’s Day, freshman year of college and I lay in my dorm room watching the clock. With every breath I took, my heart sank deeper. He should be back by now, 10:34 PM…11:27PM...2:05AM. Then around 3:30 AM, Fred busted in the room, laughing to himself. He hopped into bed next to me. “Baby, you have no idea, this night was crazyyyyy!” His breath reeked of beer so I turned my back to him. “I wish you had been back by now,” I said disappointed, “I thought we were going to spend Valentine’s night together.” I held my breath, waiting for him to say something. I counted my pictures of my friends and family I had hung on the wall. “You always do this,” he slurred, his tone becoming more serious. “I can never have a good time with you, you ruined my night, you always do!” By now he was screaming.

I just missed you. Please don’t get mad, forget what I just said, please don’t get mad.

“You hung out with the guys last night, I thought this night would be reserved for me,” I pleaded with him as he sat on the edge of the bed putting his dirty running shoes, his “drinking shoes” back on. He then got up, and grabbed the red bin he stored under my twin bed. It was full of various things of his, shirts, shorts, love notes I wrote to him. As he opened the door to leave, he also grabbed an envelope off of my dresser. It was full of cut up slips of paper I made him for Valentine’s Day. Each slip contained a reason why I loved him. I spent an hour making it for him: cutting out each slip, typing up the reasons, and even colored an elephant out of hearts which I taped to the front.

Please don’t leave. I don’t want to be alone.

Tears started falling down my face. I followed him out to the hallway where he stood waiting by the elevator. “You’re such an idiot; I can never have a good time,” he slurred again. “I’m sorry!” I pleaded, trying to embrace him, but he kept pushing me away like I was some sort of beggar, pleading for his riches. “That’s why your ex before me left you and that’s why you dad is never around. You can’t have fun and you’re annoying.” He snatched the Valentine’s Day envelope off of the top of his bin. He grabbed a handful of the slips, ripped them to pieces and threw some in my face saving the rest for the top of my head.

.........But I am still in love with him

RomanceIf your partner cheats on you, can you forgive him/her? by argon500(op): 5:45pm On Sep 24, 2014
Cheating is a common problem in many relationships. When one partner discovers that the other is cheating, there are heart-wrenching emotional effects. Unfortunately, cheating cannot always simply be defined as having sex with someone outside of your relationship. Cheating comes in a variety of shapes and forms, but they are all equally devastating.

If your partner cheats on you, can you forgive him/her?
PoliticsAtiku Accuses Jonathan Of Sponsoring Boko Haram To Cause Instability by argon500(op): 2:26pm On Sep 24, 2014
Former vice president, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has told the Voice of America, Hausa Service, that the crisis situation occasioned by the Boko Haram insurgency was a deliberate ploy by the Goodluck Jonathan-led Federal Government to cause instability in the country for selfish political reasons.

“This thing (insurgency) almost came up during our time but we crushed it in less then a month. We have a military that is known and respected all over the world for peace keeping. If the military has the right leadership and the required arms, they can end this insurgency. But the government is promoting this insurgency for selfish reasons,” he said.

The interview was monitored by journalists in Kaduna, on Tuesday..

The Turakin Adamawa, while answering a question on whether he had the solution to end the crisis if he becomes president, said that would not be impossible as he had on one to one basis, given pieces of advice to the president on how to end the crisis but his advice had never been adhered to.

He insisted that the Federal Government should be accused of complicity in the crisis which had, for some time, appeared to defy solution and called on Nigerians to be united against bad governance and terrorism.

RomanceWhat Lies Would Make You Not To Forgive Your Partner? by argon500(op): 10:32am On Sep 24, 2014
The term, “liar, liar pants on fire” takes on new meaning when dealing with a pathological liar. This person may not be completely rooted in reality, believing the lies they tell, often in an effort to remedy low self esteem. Unlike telling a few fibs here and there, or slightly exaggerating the truth once in a while, the pathological liar lies about literally every aspect of his or her life. From how much was spent on dinner last night to talking about the last time the dog was bathed, the pathological liar feels that every bit of communication has strategic meaning positioned for his or her gain.

I’ve only had two ex who’ve looked me in the eye and told me lies. Both of them were trying to cover up mistakes. I certainly had grace for their mistakes, but I’ve wondered looking back if I didn’t have grace for their lies.

Neither of these two friends are in contact anymore. We don’t talk. Being in a relationship with somebody who lies is tough. It’s not that you don’t love them or care about them, it’s just that you can’t connect. Being lied to on a consistent basis is not only frustrating but also disrespectful to the other person.

What lies would make you not to forgive your partner?
