[quote author=Mrs.Chima]They also have body lifts as well. I will stick to the face. [/quote]You are thinking of nicki minaj right? LOL, I know that is why I used the word easier.

Nayah: Body can easily be changed if you practise sport while face...
Anyway, women have a lot of sides to enlighten not just physical apsect

Can sports give you the hourglass shape that I like in a woman? (picture Mercy Johnson)

achi4u: i don't care about the durability,all i want is motor,afterall keke-napep are doing well.innoson carry go!!!

No it's always better to strive for perfection. If they have brake problem then they should resolve it. Innoson carry go!

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]I will pick the face because I know bodies go through metamorphosis and never remain the same. [/quote]The face also goes through "metamorphosis". Plus it's easier to do a face-lift than all body correction.

PS. there are websites that sell face masks for £ 5.50.

90% of women will dream of being pregnant in their life time. There is nothing to it, its your secret desire not"spiritual pregnancy".

I will go for the perfect body.

shymmex:

Is it, yh? Are you sure you're Jamaican and not Jafrican? Something about the way you write is not just Jamaican. I don't know any JA girl who's this passionate about little Ghana - and please don't get your panties moist, you know naija mans are on top now in London. Every black girl wants a naija boy. Don't hate the player, hate the game - and pray for Amankwa and Kuffour to play catch up, Mz Jafrican

If she says she is "Jamaican" then she is, Just play along. That is what I do. no ley ley.

bittyend: Ghana, oh Ghana
Land of fufu and wanche
Land of big heads and ultra dark faces

Ghana, a country with just 500million barrels of oil - but you would think they had 200billion barrels - the way the talk about it. Ghana should be compared to Ekiti or Zamfara - Ghana belongs in the butt-crack of Africa. Talking about Ghana makes them relevant - they're irrelevant as far as I'm concerned.

The only good thing out of Ghana is their chics with big bums.

I think its time we support a Ghana woman for president of Ghana, just like we did Liberia. kwame nkrumah's daughter should get ready to be president.

bigboyk: Oh my Ghana! When will Nigerians let us be? We now can't make our own choice and decisions as a sovereign state? They say we are jealous, yet they always talk about us. Please, think of how to move Naija forward while we do the same for Ghana. We won't vote for NOI and we stand on that decision. Nigerians have this crazy mentality of imposing themselves on others (as evident in PDP convention, PDP guber and presidential primaries, etc). We Ghanaians believe in the principles and ideals of democracy. Away with your sentimental rantings. Oh my Ghana! When will Nigerians let us be?

By the time Nigeria starts making decisions against Ghana,and voting against them then you will understand.

[quote author=PROUD-IGBO]^^^I beg to differ. If Ghanas support for the man is based solely on what he's done for Ghana, then they're being hypocrites and two-faced. I'm not trying to demean Sachs contributions to Ghanas development, but it pales into insignificance when compared to what Nigeria has done for Ghana, inspite of our rocky past history together.

I was watching an interview a few weeks ago (moments with Mo) in which the immediate past President of Ghana was being interviewed, and he noted the special relationship between the two countries, pointing out that there was a time during his Presidency when Ghana was in such dire straits that they couldn't afford to pay for fuel, service debts, etc. This would have led to an economic crises had Nigeria not stepped in to help: if my memory serves me right, Ghana imported fuel from Nigeria on credit for a couple of months, thus helping the country to stabilise itself. That's what brothers do for one another, not to talk of the fact we share a common political and economic destiny in ECOWAS.

Even today, there's a main thoroughfare in Accra named after Obasanjo, and the gesture is also reciprocated in many cities in Nigeria.

I think the present Ghana President either has a short memory or hasn't been sufficiently briefed on Nigeria by his predecessor.

All this talk of African brotherhood and solidarity is all hogwash. This can be seen on a national scale in Nigeria, and a regional scale in West Africa.[/quote]To add to that, NOI was the one that campaigned tirelessly for the cancellation of African nations dept,including Ghana. which was later granted.

DRANOEL: @poster

to add to what you posted, i find it quite shocking when i hear so called educated nigerians saying if MTN leaves nigeria the south-african economy will collapse! how?

a message to nigerians, we are not the giant of africa. we are the backwater of africa,a true definition of everything "failed". whereas those who want to be regional powers sell themselves positively,we in nigeria sell our selves negatively. america movies protray america as a country that works and can defend its self against any agressor. our movies (the quality says it all) protray nigerians as desperados,ritualist,drug stars,scammers and what have you.

You should listen to yourself,(we in nigeria sell our selves negatively)are you selling naija positively right now?

I like naija's boldness; I like the fact that we are proud, even if some peeps mistake it for arrogance. I wouldn't wish to be from another African country.

Jim yong kim is new world bank president.

Blackteeth: Then stop bashing Nigerian leaders

You did not answer my question. OK I will do it for you, there are "just" men in Nigerian.
(Just man - fair to all parties as dictated by reason and conscience; "equitable treatment of all citizens; free from favoritism or self-interest or bias or deception; conforming with established standards or rules; of moral excellence; "a genuinely good person"; "an upright and respectable man".)

kulutempa: My conclusion after reading all the posts above is that Nigerians are suckers and have very short memories. For those clamoring for military rule I will ask you one question and I hope you can give a honest answer.
The question is: What difference has more than 30 years of military rule made to Nigeria?

Nigerians are not suckers, its just that we have our fair share of ninnies among us.

fork adict: You talk about how much the presidency spends on a meal. And since it came to your knowledge, what have you been able to do about it? Has 1 kobo been removed from the budget for each meal? So what difference does your knowing about this depressing fact make to the presidency?

Mind you, i am not canvassing for an Abacha kind of military government or IBB. Those are disasters. I would rather have a responsible military government. A government that will fight against corruption, try, jail and execute all those rougues in agbada in abuja, strengthen our anti-corruption agencies, and instill dicipline into the subconcious of nigerians and then when all this is done, hand over power to an elected government after conducting a free, fair and credible elction. Out of all the coups we have had in naija, only Buhari-Idiagbon regime came close to the kind of military government i am talking about here.

Dreams can come through, We all need to have them.

DRANOEL: culture,tradition and religion are actually the worst culprits of human rights infringements. by themselves they restrict the way of human life. unfortunately culture,tradition and religion are what define human"hood".

Well said, but don't you think culture, tradition and religion should not be rigid. As humans get civilised, there is the need for reforms in our societies.

Arouser: Chai! So the number of Morons on NL has incresed. Wonderful!

You will get used to it.

Ijogz K: When would something like this happen in Naija? I want the military back

How many times has there been a coup in naija and did it improve things in the country?

Where Would South Africa Be Without White People?

At best they would be like Zimbabwe.

Your human rights conflict with some countries' belief systems (religious and cultural). That is why you have to fight for your rights, otherwise the religious and tribal bigots in your government will not let you have your freedom.

Dis Guy: anyone with access to the traffic laws in nigeria

there are very few traffic officers, i think the govt can create more employment through this alone, they can even be self funding, all the revenue the collect from suicide drivers can be used to pay their salaries-

You have said it as it should be, my good man.

what worked for Ghana can not necessarily work for Nigeria. If the Rawlings-justice had happened in naija, Rawlings would have been dead by now.

If I am 100% sure that I will get away with a crime it's logical to say that i would most likely do it.

two brothers challenge Socrates to define justice in the man, and unlike the rather short and simple definitions offered in Book I, their views of justice are presented in two independent speeches. Glaucon's speech reprises Thrasymachus' idea of justice; it starts with the legend of Gyges who discovered a ring that gave him the power to become invisible. Glaucon uses this story to argue that no man would be just if he had the opportunity of doing injustice with impunity. With the power to become invisible, Gyges is able to seduce the queen, murder the king, and take over the kingdom. Glaucon argues that the just as well as the unjust man would do the same if they had the power to get away with injustice exempt from punishment. The only reason that men are just and praise justice is out of fear of being punished for injustice. The law is a product of compromise between individuals who agree not to do injustice to others if others will not do injustice to them. Glaucon says that if people had the power to do injustice without fear of punishment, they would not enter into such an agreement. Glaucon uses this argument to challenge Socrates to defend the position that the unjust life is better than the just life. Adeimantus adds to Glaucon's speech the charge that men are only just for the results that justice brings one- fortune, honor, reputation. Adeimantus challenges Socrates to prove that being just is worth something in and of itself, not only as a means to an end.

Book II, Plato's Republic.

Reference: There are no singular forces that can improve Nigeria. That's why in our history no military ruler left the country better than he met it. The challenges are just too complex. Our ideologies are too diverse. Nothing binds us long enough for a potential leader to hitch on to motivate the nation. Even the crucible of civil war that galvanised strong nationalistic and pluralistic tendencies has failed in Nigeria. Very little works here. We just have to find some alien system to succeed.

Your post is a thought provoking one and I agree with you. However I still believe that true leadership and justice are key to our progress. Also true justice is a universal ideology that can unite even Nigerians.

fork adict: What same old thing have you done over and over again? Mind you not one military regime has implemented my blueprint to the letter. Not one. The only regime that came close was Buhari-Idiagbon.

I will say that the Aguiyi-Ironsi coup did that. but it failed.
