It has always been like that for Somolu, why the noise now? Sometimes there is light, and sometimes no light.

And the PHCN station in Onipanu is useless as phock. There is no need to thank God, it is a cycle.


BTW, moderator, it is Somolu, not SHOMOLU.


@OP, where in Somolu do you live?

redsun:
With people like you,your environment can never see light,everything that amanates from you is negative.

You construe everything to negativity,no matter how positive something is,you will always see it in negative light.

I just wonder sometimes whether you are for real?Or just acting?If you are acting,i nominate you for an oscar.

You need to brush up on your spelling Niggerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Are they Nigerians?

Did this happen in Nigeria?

Is the Israeli Ambassador Nigerian?

Are the students politicians?

How is your thoughtless post relevant to Nigeria or Nigerians?

Or should we assume that this is another one of your many failed attempts at looking for a Muslim brother to marry?

Again, Adeola, GET A JOB!

Lets see how far you can get stalking Mr. Cork.

This should be interesting.

I think Yorubas are better, they do better on JAMB, have the best Universities in Nigeria, more and better educated, culturally they are more sophisticated, control the economy, calmer, better known around the world and have won a Nobel.

No need to excite yourself unnecessarily. This is not any sort of victory for Ndigbo. As usual, more competent hands from the SW and abroad would be brought in to operate the business.

How can anyone in their right mind trust Ndigbo to operate something as humongous and ginormous. That said, this is good news for Yoruba people and Indians and Chinese and other foreigners.

Hopefully, they can continue their trade in heaven.


No worries people. Its natural for Ibos to move form one place to the other for better business. Maybe they just decided to move from the North to heaven so they can make more profit.


Ibos will do anything for money, we all know that! No sympathies.

Isnt it interesting that OPC has a better and well updated website than most of our universities and parastatals

Fighting Women of Dahomey

The Dahomey Amazons, or Mino, were a Fon (a major West African ethnic and linguistic group in the country of Benin, and southwest Nigeria) all-female military regiment of the Kingdom of Dahomey (now Benin), which lasted until the end of the 19th century. They were so named by Western observers and historians due to their similarity to the semi-mythical Amazons of ancient Anatolia and the Black Sea. The Mino were recruited from among the ahosi (“king’s wives”), of which there were often hundreds. They trained with intense physical exercise. Discipline was emphasized. In the latter period, they were armed with Winchester rifles, clubs and knives. Units were under female command. Captives who fell into the hands of the Amazons were often decapitated. The French army lost several battles to them due to the female warriors’ skill in battle that was “the equal of every contemporary body of male elite soldiers from among the colonial powers”. The last surviving Amazon of Dahomey died in 1979.

Ki Moon commends Nigeria over blast response

The Secretary-General of the United Nations, Ban Ki-moon, has expressed appreciation to President Goodluck Jonathan and Nigeria for the hospitality, political, material and security support provided to the United Nations staff in the aftermath of the bomb blast at the UN building in Abuja.

Mr Ban was speaking when he received President Jonathan at the UN headquarters.

“You provided full political, material and security support to our staff after the unfortunate incident, and this is very much appreciated by the whole UN family.” He stated,

Mr Ban expressed happiness with President Jonathan’s leadership of the Economic Community of West African States, and the role he played in resolving the crisis in Cote d’Ivoire, his sustained help and support to Liberia and Guinea Bissau.

“Your sustained support for Liberia has been invaluable, and is essential for a peaceful and transparent elections in that country.” He said.

Other issues discussed during the meeting included piracy in the Gulf of Guinea, for which Mr Ban pledged to send an assessment team to the region, the situation in Sudan, and Nigeria’s health bill.

Responding, President Jonathan expressed condolence to the UN family for the attack on the UN building in Abuja, and said progress has been made in the hunt for the perpetrators of the dastardly act.

“Terrorism is new to our security architecture, but our personnel are doing their best, and the perpetrators will be brought to book”, he stated, adding that some of the suspects have already been apprehended.

On the efforts to ensure peaceful elections in Liberia, Mr Jonathan told Mr Ban that ECOWAS would support the UN with police and para-military personnel in the run-up and immediately after the elections, to ensure that the small arms and weapons being controlled by non-state actors are not used to mar the exercise.

President Jonathan said ECOWAS countries are not in a position to provide the funds required for this exercise, and sought the support of the UN.

The Nigerian president acknowledged the challenges of bunkering and piracy in the Gulf of Guinea and Nigeria’s efforts to check it, and offered to consult with the actors in the current situation in Sudan. He also explained the issues delaying the signing into law of the Health Bill, and assured that they would be sorted out.

htajz:
more girls are being violated everyday in nigeria and round the world and you people are hear insulting abia state governor, everybody should concentrate on finding out who the victim is and how to stop violation in nigeria and round the world [size=18pt]even in the u.s[/size] with the highest number of violation cases in the world. insulting the governor will not get us anywhere

Only if Mr. SW aka Mr. Yoruba aka Mr. Ekiti would listen.

In the world the US has the highest number of r/a/p/e crimes, in terms of rate and number.

Despite a decline of 60% since 1993, the US still has a relatively high rate of violation when compared to other developed countries.[32] For more information, see the statistics subsection of the article

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_statistics

And Mrs. Ekiti aka Idi-Ileke should know that she is more likely to be r/a/p/e/d in the US, at gun point, than in Nigeria.  As a matter of fact, WRT r/a/p/e , Nigeria is safer than her UF campus. But then, with an "orobo" brain sitting lazily on top an "orobo" body, I am not surprised at her stupidity and brainlessly brainless thread.


How you doing Ileke? Hope you alright?

He has been deported back to Nigeria. Unfortunately, instead of dropping the Aare in Benin republic or any of the SWestern states in Nigeria, he was mistakenly handed over to MASSOB in Enugu. Not sure what is going on with him as we speak. Last I heard of him, he is now ready to "co-opt" Biafra into his utopia, Odualand. I will let you know as I get more info.

hmmmmm

Hey Shy-One, long time no see.

When did you start using "jare?" Anyway, glad you are gradually becoming one of us.  Have you chosen a Yoruba name? You know you will need one when you land in Naija, "Shy-one" wont do.

Shy-One:
I did as you directed - still not exactly sure of what I am suppose to surmise by the few comments and the one emoticon you used on Page 1. Please elaborate

When are you mounting me? I am ready. Ready to be mounted by you, Shy-One.

Why are the Ibos so ugly.

^^^

You should go down to Nigeria and find out yourself.

Shy-One:
^^^ - I see that you are clueless - wowwww, u are missing out - truly missing out on a very great experience.

I am not your dictionary or encyclopedia - you need to Take Se.x 101 or do your own personal research.

I want you as my teacher. We can start by you being on top of me. Where do you live?

Shy-One:
What? I love being on top and on the bottom during sex. Missionary and canine is the only acceptable position for Nigerian men? Is that what you are intimating here?

Please tell me that- that is NOT what you are trying to say.

Se.x SHOULD NOT BE BORING, mundane, mechanical

Why do you like being on top?

Africa's richest man wants his continent to grow -- and some say his project to build its largest fertiliser plant could provide relief to farmers and help put a dent in food shortages.
The project, set to come on stream in three years, may also serve as an example of how Nigeria, the continent's largest oil producer with massive untapped gas reserves, can put its often-squandered natural resources to good use.
Of course, Nigeria-based Dangote Group, headed by Aliko Dangote, once dubbed Africa's richest man by Forbes, could stand to rake in yet another small fortune along the way.

The company has set out plans for the plant to be located in the south of Nigeria in Edo state. It is to be constructed by Italian firm Saipem, though the cost of the project was not made public.
It would employ some 7,000 people, directly and indirectly, according to Dangote, and eventually allow Nigeria to stop importing fertiliser and use its wealth of natural gas reserves as part of the manufacturing process.
The plant would also produce enough to export, the company says while describing the plant as the biggest in Africa.
"There is no reason why Nigeria should be importing fertiliser," Aliko Dangote said in a statement.
"I am happy that with this agreement, by the time our plant is completed and commissioned, the country will become self-sufficient in fertiliser production and even have the capacity to export the products to other African countries."
The Nigerian programme officer for the International Fund for Agricultural Development, a UN agency, welcomed the plan.
"Whatever happens here will have a multiplier effect on the rest of Africa," said Benjamin Odoemena.
"Once there is food sufficiency in Nigeria, other African countries, including the famine-ravaged Horn of Africa, will benefit."
Of course, there are sure to be sceptics. Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation, has had a long list of highly ambitious projects that were either torpedoed by corruption or simply went nowhere.


Whether a similar fate will befall the Dangote plan remains to be seen, but the tycoon certainly has a history of successes to make his case, with his company already strong in areas including cement, flour, sugar and food production.
When operational in 2014, the plant will produce 7,700 metric tonnes per day of granulated urea, consisting of two trains with a production capacity of 3,850 metric tonnes each per day, they said.
Agriculture has long been neglected in Nigeria, with the oil industry providing some two-thirds of government revenue and more than 90 percent of export earnings.
But the oil industry provides few local jobs, while it has been estimated that agriculture employs about 70 percent of the workforce. Most are subsistence farmers.
"It will boost agricultural production in the country and tremendously increase the yields of farmers since more fertilisers will be available to them," said Ahmed Rabiu Kwa, executive secretary of the Fertiliser Suppliers Association of Nigeria, an umbrella body of 27 manufacturers and suppliers.
The president of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Olufemi Deru, however argued that farmers would benefit more if there was a comprehensive policy on agriculture in the country.


"What Nigeria needs at the moment is an agricultural policy that will make the sector the mainstay of the economy," Deru said.
