مارأيت في هذه، قلا من العقل

What will happen if my twitter handle is with Putin picture as my profile pix? I guess any body I replied on twitter will be glad to have conversation with Russian president.

brandonobi:
its time for people to take responsibility for their own actions, nobody forced anything down our throats, the westerners are actually guilt free, but if one chooses to follow what is accepted elsewhere and it backfires, whose fault is it, no one is tied to a leash.

Exactly......

Is part of the freedom.

It obvious that introducing what is not being practice in a society and even present it with flavor that will make juveniles follow suit, is an injustice to that society.

Peopl could be anybody and to be responsible is relative term.

In one of my whatapp groups this was shared and found worth of circulating to educate ourselves and think of recuse if possible my brothers and sisters.

WESTERN CONSPIRACY!!!

It all started as freedom propaganda. The lie was told so subtly that we didn’t notice. To gain popularity, they convinced us that it was all about gender equality. Then
they preached to us, saying it was a human rights and child rights agenda.

To draw the attention of women, they hid under Women Empowerment Campaigns. We saw everything they did as part of civilization. Because of this, we applauded them and blindly sang their praises.

We were so blind that we did not notice when they went from equality to role reversal, and from ‘rights’ to ‘wrongs’. They told us it was all a matter of understanding. I mean, if she earns more than he does, why can’t she be the head while he submits?

They told us we had the right to our bodies. They told us that if the guys can do ‘it’ anytime with anybody, so can the girls. They introduced free love, and ‘friends with benefits’, and convinced us that we were just
exercising our rights to enjoy our bodies. We agreed. Which youth wouldn’t?

When we complained about STDs, they introduced condoms, and even started sharing it to us free of charge in our secondary schools. They told us that from the age of 16, we had the right to do whatever we wanted to.

This made us to start seeing our parents and school teachers as toothless bulldogs as they no longer had the right to discipline us. Talk of sweet freedom!

When we complained about teenage pregnancies, they told our parents to educate us about contraceptives as early as possible. Then they introduced the reformed sex education in our school as a guise to give us more
condoms.

Some of us still got pregnant, and we complained yet again. So they decided to legalize abortions. This was in a bid to help us. You see, they really cared about our future, and wanted to ensure that we live a free life.
Abortion made sense to us. So we accepted it. I mean, why bring a child you don’t want or can’t take care of into the world?
We felt a bit guilty because it seemed like murder. But they told us not to worry. According to them, what we were doing was merely taking out an unwanted foetus and not killing a child. Yet again, we accepted it, and got pacified.

They said that we weren’t supposed to be accountable to any deity, religion, our parents or the society.

Next, they told us we had the freedom to do what we wanted with our lives, so far as we weren’t hurting other
people or trampling on their rights.

Almost immediately, we stopped going to church, and found excuses to skip going to the mosque. We rather chose to play football, hang out, or watch seasonal movies on Fridays and Sundays.

We also decided to experiment with homosexuality. It seemed like fun, and they encouraged us. When we told them that the society frowned against our choice, they legalized it and told us we can get married too.

We decided to go further and experiment with drugs. They frowned against it publicly, but we still had access to it. Moreover, we were minors, and the law enforcement agents couldn’t really punish us.

We looked for role models and they gave us Hollywood stars with multiple divorce stories, musical icons addicted to drugs/alcohol, and sports stars with numerous extra marital affair scandals.

They told us, that those celebrities were successful and free and we should aspire to be like them. Some of us started pumping iron, getting tattoos, and injecting steroids in order to look as manly and as ‘successful’ as our role models.

We started seeing fidelity as a sign of weakness. And just like our ‘role-models’, we started going after everything in skirt.

We equally tore off pictures of our successful and ‘sexy’ looking role models off celebrity magazines, and pasted them on our mirrors. We started dieting like mad so we can lose weight and look like them. We noticed that they
hardly wore any clothes, so we followed suit.

When we became bored, they introduced us to their clubs and night parties. They told us to throw caution to the winds and just have fun. Even when some of us got raped, they encouraged us to shut up and keep having fun.

Some of us became addicted to alcohol, but we were told not to worry that it was one way to prove our manhood, so we continued.

At a time we noticed that we had lost our will. We had become their slaves without knowing it. We noticed that we didn’t have any reason to live again, and life was no longer purposeful.

In the bid to look sexy, some of us became victims of anorexia nervosa. Those of us in relationships found it impossible to be faithful. Many started contemplating suicide. Many more had STDs. Some of us experienced series of psychological traumas and mental breakdowns. A lot more dropped out of school as a result of unwanted pregnancies, drugs, or an abortion that went wrong.

At this point we saw our future get dashed before our faces.

We started looking for whom to blame. After a fruitless search, we had to admit that we didn’t even know who ‘they’ were. Then reality dawned on us.

We remembered our fathers telling us that “unlimited liberty is slavery in disguise”. We also remembered when our mothers told us that “freedom without checks and balances is tantamount to advanced bondage”. By then it was too late for us. We had bought ‘their’ freedom lie.

Maybe for you, it is not yet late. Then please don’t be deceived by their lies and evil propaganda. Do not be swayed by their subtle message of freedom.

They’re all lies!!!

We can prove it with our failed relationships, drug
addictions, unwanted pregnancies, violent tendencies etc.

Beware!!!

And please warn other youths so the menace will not colonise all of this generation.

Let's ponder on it

Before nko

This is how it was, so be it now and forever......

It is pathetic that many of the juvenile delinquencies were actually left over from our predecessors and there is nothing bad if we out smart them because they prayed for us to be better off.

But all I know for sure is that, the replica of olosho + and oshomo worldwide found in this situation.

There are decent ones who will never indulge in such because Ile Lomo tíì kò èso rode.

Talk is more cheap is also toll free.

How I wish to have time to trash down the garbage you posted, while PDP has heap of problems to deal with you busy posting what can not in any way redeem your party's lost glory.


Na wa for you ooo

gbaskiboy:
The man look like Buhari , someone should help me check the picture well Akant find my eye glasses

There you go again, displaying slowpoke on SOSO media is quite embarrassing.

Respect yourself!

We don't expect anything less from you Oga Dele.....

OH you are missing ASO Vila already, why now you shouldn't have stood this low perhaps you reached out very well with ex president and with objective mind.


I believe you can still do better, this one is a missed call anyway try again later.

Pidggin:
God bless your family GEJ, may your generation be even greater than you

I don't like the way you end it.......
.... Say greater than him in stealing.


Even the man who is selling firewood at the back of my house is proud of being a firewood seller, how a stealing case as such has to be different after all it is a profession.

Ask4Info:
[b]I AM SORRY BUT I THINK MAJORITY OF NIGERIANS DESERVE SUCH TREATMENT.

WHEN YOU ALL SHOULD ALL COME TOGETHER AND UNITE AND FIGHT THE COMMON ENEMY YOU PEOPLE LOOK FOR THE SLIGHTEST OPPORTUNITY TO CURSE EACH OTHERS TRIBE AND RELIGION. AS IF YOUR ETHNIC BACKGROUND AND RELIGION IS THE REASON WHILE THE OTHER MAN ISN'T PROGRESSING.

TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR MATES IN EGYPT, USA, FRANCE, PAKISTAN AND EVERY OTHER SANE COUNTRY. AS SOON AS THERE IS A MALTREATMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT ON A CITIZEN, WITHIN 24 HOURS THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WILL TAKE TO THE STREETS FOR SOLIDARITY. IN NIGERIA THE CASE IS THE REVERSE.

AFTER THE MASSIVE CORRUPTION DISCOVERED IN THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY, WHO WILL BELIEVE THOSE ANIMALS WILL STILL BE IN THAT BUILDING. A PLACE WHERE THE YOUTHS SHOULD HAVE LONGED OCCUPIED AND CHASED THEM AWAY.


SOME POVERTY STRICKEN INDIVIDUALS ARE STILL SUPPORTING PATIENCE JONATHAN CLAIMING OWNERSHIP OF THE $20M DOLLARS.


INSTANGRAM, FACEBOOK, TWITTER AND NAIRALAND WON'T HELP. YOU ALL SHOULD STOP BEING CHICKENS AND GO OUT THERE TO FIGHT FOR WHAT IS RIGHTFULLY YOURS.[/b]

My brother.......... This kind of scenario best described as 'zombies'

During my college days I happen to be SUG president, then I was taught lessons I can't forget in my life.

If we all agreed to confront the management about the poor conditions of the school, I will go extra mile before the agreed date by setting a lot on motion at the end of the day no one will come to give the promised backing. I was nearly dismissed.

Nigerians are coward and this has been our greatest problem and believe, this brought us to where we are today.

Thank God, it wasn't more than what you posted.

Recession has turned all our law enforcement officers to real time lawbreakers. The truth is that no one sent them to start brutalize the citizens but because most of them lack conscience, extortion and other crimes they committed against us was fun to them and means of meeting up with their excesses.

We need to be very careful and always remember that those attacking us were not police officer but because NPF notorious for various criminals and injustice how can one proves their innocent.

She deserves to be lashed more......

When we are saying leadership, we mean far more than the head say Buhari, it encompasses his wife and other immediate family members.

Now as a matter of urgency she has to be strong and stands out in support of our president.

Instead of posting this kind of garbage, why not words of encouragement, words that will feature among other things how she feels about the recession and how she thinks we can cope with it and possibly reaching out to the needy.


He who lives in a glass house must not play with stones.

Statements like this had been circulating in Nigeria since very long time ago as a student of education the following I found lacking or not well taught in our educational circles.
1. Only Nigeria students were oriented and groomed to see education as ends herself instead of being means to the ends.
2. The ultimate goal of education of developed countries is, education for self sustainability unlike Nigeria where the aim is to secure white-collar job.
3. The type of education out there is pragmatic or better described as functional system of education. Nigeria is not with an inch closer to this type.
4. Many of our highly rated educationist were actually certificated but not educated in real sense of it, this put us in dilemma of having many wrong role models around.
5. The crazy democratic system of government nko is big time flop and no nation can grow democratically above her democratic system of education.
Average individual who is doing well today in various human endeavor and of course sees their degree of being an opportunity to make a difference in life will never say that the degree is a waste of time.

I am happy and pray for you to continue iterate good we were best known for unlike some who has done their best to tarnish the good name.
...... As a young girl what is happening in your life now is nothing other than luck which coincided with God's time. When God is ready to let me rule the whole world who dear to have contrary opinion, the why and how it happened will definitely beyond what a mortal can explain just as your own today, any body will definitely have similar opportunity tomorrow because you are not there yesterday.
You and I wouldn't have been the first just like them and the fact that we are here today, tomorrow will definitely belong to someone and some people else, and we will have to write and post a lot about them as well.
OH my God let my time come when everyone will continue to exclaim and feel your presence in my life.

1. Saving economy is better said and tedious to carryout in actions but as a president I will give all it takes to have round peg in round hole and save no stone unturned to ensure good economic growth.
2. I will not mistake a lawyer who will not seize to see all situations from problematic point of view and must solve at all cost to technocrats nationalist who sees all situations as not a problem that must not only solve but liberal and civilly.
3. Likewise I will not entrusted ministry of finance to an accountant who only knew how to keep records of treasury instead an economist who will standout in economizing limited resources of the state and put to judicious use any available fund.
4. My educational programs will be handled only by academia, science and practical vocational school will be the first priority.

I don't want to comment but..........
I came to realize that we are all human and sometimes bound to be guilty of sleeping on duty, not with standing extra careful required to comport strictly with rules in any public gardering of this kind expecially this time of recession that everyone is fear of what future had for us.
Senator laar you did not try at all, you could have excuse yourself so far no one blames you the other time you failed to present in the senate.

The awe of hoodlums is the beginning of wisdom.
Many of our celebrities are actually the cause of the predicament befell them. What shall it profit a Foo, l taking to the internet all about his/her life.
The likes of this, have been the cause of tribulations someone found difficult to solve and many still take it for granted and fool about.

NgeneUkwenu:
Okonjo Iweala, a woman that had seen it all could come out to say at an American conference that the SEED OF THIS RECESSION WAS PLANTED DURING THE JONATHAN REGIME DUE TO OUR LACK OF FINANCIAL DISCIPLINE, INABILITY AND LACK OF POLITICAL WILL TO SAVE.

Obasanjo's administration earned # 17trn [/b]from crude oil sales within eight years and left behind 45bn dollars external reserves and 3.348bn dollars external debt.

Yaradua grew the reserves to [b]64bn dollars within just one year and the administration was able to finance 15 months of imports despite the 2008/2009 world economic meltdown. Hence, Nigeria survived the melt down because of the political will by the administration to save(a great achievement by Yaradua which most Nigerians are not aware of). Despite the tough economic reality at that time, Yaradua left 47.7bn dollars in reserves and an external debt of 3.94bn dollars. Meanwhile, the administration earned only # 9trn from crude oil sales within that short period.

Now, Jonathan administration witnessed an oil boom when Brent crude sold for over 100 dollars/barrel, with the regime earning # 51trn within a period of 5years. But because of corruption, the administration did not only squander the oil revenue but even depleted the reserves left by Yaradua, leaving just 32bn dollars and a huge external debt of 63bn dollars for Buhari. The same Brent crude sold for as low as 35 dollars/barrel at a point shortly after Buhari took over power and had only managed to climb to about 48 dollars just recently.

These are facts that can be verified. So, it's amazing hearing people criticize Buhari for the hunger in the land.

According to Fashola, Buhari's administration inherited 206 uncompleted road projects and contract arrears worth #2.1trn from Jonathan; and for about 2 to 3 years the contractors where not paid. This slowed down the economic activities, with most of the companies laying off their staff. This was when the seed of recession was sowed.

It's obvious that Buhari came in to rescue Nigeria, because if Jonathan had continued in power, the nation's economic crisis would have been worse, perhaps even the Federal government wouldn't have been able to pay salaries of civil servants by now.

According to Okonjo Iweala, Nigeria started borrowing money to pay salaries since October, 2014; but today Nigeria now borrow money for investment in capital projects.

Those who blame Buhari for the current hardship do so either out of mischief (hatred) or ignorance. So, we shouldn't join the bandwagon in criticising him. [b]He may not have done much to save the situation, considering that he is not a perfect human being but he means well for the country and can only succeed with our prayers[/b].

[size=15pt]May Almighty God continue to guide Baba Buhari.

Brother you have done it well.
Nairaland.com is home of the wise and the big fools, by fools I meant the fools are the majority, the wise are just very few and those in the class of fools are the IPOBs, this kind of of information they will either ignore it or attack it and successfully prove that their fool is type C (classic).

I agree with you and many other aware of this all we need to do is praying for this administration to succeed because I can see great achievement in the next few years which PDP could not for 16yrs uninterrupted.
God bless Nigeria.

What pains me most is......
Ladies too exonerated themselves to issues of having sex, their comment is epic now but ask who really guilty of sexual advances......
You will hear words like when man need sex he can not control himself and make sure to give all it takes to have it.
But woman and sex matters are like... You know that picture

A man who named his dog after Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari defended his decision on Monday, saying he has nothing but admiration and respect for the leader.

Joachim Iroko Chinakwe, a textile trader, was arrested by police last month and charged with an act likely to cause breach of peace after naming his dog Buhari.

But speaking at the magistrate court in the town of Ota in the southwestern state of Ogun, Chinakwe said he only has love for the president.

“President Buhari is a man after my heart. I have great love and admiration for him because of his honesty, discipline and integrity,” Chinakwe told AFP before court proceedings started.



“I also salute his courage and resilience. Here is a man who ran for the presidency three times and failed. But he did not give up. He ran again for the fourth time and to God be the glory, won,” the 40-year-old added.

Chinakwe also revealed the dog wasn’t the only family member who shared a name with the head of state.

In September, he named his newborn girl “Aisha”, after the president’s wife.

“This is to further demonstrate my love for the Buhari family,” said Chinakwe.

Chinakwe’s lawyer Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa said the case was an abuse of power and should be dismissed.

Adegboruwa, a Lagos-based human rights lawyer, is known for his acrimonious relationship with the government and was this year arrested by Nigeria’s anti-graft agency.

“There is no law that says a man cannot give any name to his dog,” he told AFP.

Police maintain the dog case has nothing to do with the president, alleging that Chinakwe inscribed the name on the sides of his dog and paraded the pet in the streets to antagonise a neighbour whose father’s name is Buhari.

The matter has been adjourned until November 21.

This system called Nigeria has stopped working before 70s any dreamer who is still vast dreaming about a change is a big fool. Buhari is here to do his part and leave us for good because if he succeeded in changing the country, it will later be a business as usual. God bless Nigeria and Buhari and serious Nairalander

The wise one wouldn't have let the following lacked in a woman he admired.......
1. Good character that can't be bought and not by virtue of pedigree
2. From a pious family that gives it all to up bring a humble lady
3. Natural beauty which enhances intrinsic love that can not subjective to time dynamic
4. A believer who practices religion with all senses of humility and piety.

Should your woman lacks any of these expecially the last one............... O boo

Here is our reaction to briefing by Minister of Info today, on FG rescue effort for OUR #ChibokGirls. @BBOG_Nigeria
https:///ui0AfiQ8wZ

I see it coming when the opposition party criticized the unminded lifting of some part of Ubama's speech into Buhari's 'Change begins with me' speech. The is that he might not aware of it and this time thanks to the opposition for the critique and successful finished the carrier of unprofessional writer.
Here is it, the writer has been fired.


President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered that prompt and appropriate disciplinary action be taken against those responsible for a wrongful insertion in his speech delivered on September 8, 2016 at the launch of the “Change Begins with Me’’ campaign.
It was observed that the similarities between a paragraph in President Obama’s 2008 Victory Speech and what President Buhari read in paragraph nine of the sixteen-paragraph address while inaugurating the Campaign on Thursday, September 8, 2016 are too close to be passed as coincidence.
There was a mistake by an overzealous staff and we regret that this has happened.
Already, a Deputy Director in the Presidency has accepted responsibility for the insertion of the contentious paragraph.
This serious oversight will be investigated thoroughly and appropriate sanction meted.
The Presidency wishes to state in the clearest possible terms that it regrets this unfortunate incident and will ensure that this does not happen again.
President Buhari urges Nigerians to look beyond this incident and focus on the message of change, which the country needs in order to restore our cherished value systems.
The plagiarized paragraph in President Buhari`s change begin with me speech, reads: “We must resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship, pettiness and immaturity that have poisoned our country for so long. Let us summon a new spirit of responsibility, spirit of service, of patriotism and sacrifice, Let us all resolve to pitch in and work hard and look after, not only ourselves but one another.
“What the current problem has taught us is that we cannot have a thriving army of rent seekers and vested interests, while the majority suffers.”
President Obama had in a speech delivered after his victory on November 4, 2008, seven years before Buhari`s election, said,
“Let’s resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long.
“So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility, where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other. “Let us remember that, if this financial crisis taught us anything, it’s that we cannot have a thriving Wall Street while Main Street suffers.”

You couldn't have said it better,Thumbs up to the original poster...

Guess you are?..............

IN A TIME LIKE THIS

It is no longer a news that financial noose has been tightened around the neck of Nigeria economy. Many have sad tales to tell. Jobs have been lost, contract opportunities had waned while free flow of cash is ceasing by the day. For the first time in Nigeria Industrial Unions are bargaining with their employer to reduce their take home pay as an alternative to reduction in the work force capacity. Prices of items in the market assumed ever increasing graphical curve. Job opportunities are reducing by the day notwithstanding the ever increasing universities graduates. Many vocations are being overtaken by technological advancement. More hands are becoming idle.

In a time like this there is the need for a CHANGE of attitudes and styles to avert being swept away by sudden economic tide. Below are suggested changes:

1. If you are an applicant take the next available offered job even if it is below your dream job.
2. Buy only items that are considered as necessities. Postpone all luxurious articles till later dates.
3. Forget about living a life to satisfy others expectation at the expense of your purse, income or convenience.
4. Avert taking unnecessary risk in your place of work or business that has the possibility of making you loose your job or major client.
5. Be committed to your profession, Job or business more than ever before.
6. Re-evaluate your recurrent expenditure pattern like children school fees and effect necessary changes if found beyond your income line.
7. If you are blessed with many cars try and use those with less fuel consumption capacity. You may have to combine outings instead of members of the family taking different cars out for combinable outings.
8. Except you can afford it, resist all aso ebi or color of clothes made mandatory by a person inviting you to a ceremony. Nobody will prevent you from entering the venue even with odd dress.
9. Avert social functions that will tell terribly on your finances in terms of distance and the content of the Programme. Why not just send 'envelope' to the organizer instead.
10. Let those asking you for money know that things are no longer the same: Stop pretending at your expense. Stop suffering in silence. When the chips are down you will be alone.
11. Notwithstanding any promise to the contrary, avoid lending money to anyone an amount which if you don't receive on time will hurt your financial stability. Many friendly loans will be irrecoverable now as many expectation will be dashed.
12. If you are a tenant living in a rented palatial apartment with many rooms left unutilized, it is high time you get a smaller accommodation.
13. Where the house is yours and most of your children are adult leaving you and your spouse in a big apartment with less than half of the house being utilized, quickly consider modifying the house into smaller units with the possibility of earning rental income.
14. Plan only on funds at hand, avoid permutations based on promise made by others. In a time like this, the promisor may fail.
15. Where it is possible talk things over on phone with people rather than putting your car on the road for physical meeting. In addition avoid endless fruitless banters on phone. Be conscious of the call card cost and data usage.
16. If you have a large retinue of hangers ons around you reduce the frequencies of meals.
17. Shut all lights that are not required in your house to minimize the energy bills.
18. Do more physical exercise to minimize constant requirement of drugs. Learn to trek short distances, it help to improve your health and relive you of avoidable small expenses.
19. If the regular food in your house is becoming dearer look for alternative. For instance yam is a substitute for bread in the morning.
20. If you will bear heavy responsibility in an event, insist on moderate programne in line with the amount you could afford.

A word is enough for the wise... good people great nation.

They say knowledge is power and ignorance comes with a very heavy price and devastating consequences. This matter is for developed and enlightened minds and sadly beyond most people. The so-called Islamic agenda in Nigeria and elsewhere is obvious and we are here fighting it day and night risking life, liberty and limb. The question is who is behind it and why? What is the end game? The motto of a small branch of the illuminati tree known as the Freemasons is "out of chaos comes order". It follows that theirs is to first create chaos from country to country and then to estasblish their 'new world order'. "

This is a sense that all Christians need to get deep their skull even FFK is guilty of accusing ISLAM wrongfully.

This is a pure lie.
