Nope... That was not his point, and I never rated anyone's intelligence based on his "their" grammar skills.

I hate when people stupidly and proudly state that "English is not our official language"! Then, what is it?!! What is our language of communication across diverse ethnicities?[/s]!![/s]
What is the language of communication across ethnicities in nations like Brazil?!!

And You are wrong yet again... Good grammar is basic, and a compulsory(wrong use or choice of word) sign of literacy (distinct from Intelligence)!

[s][/s]Any person who obtained the bare minimum education of secondary school ought to be fluent in his nation's official language! This is not even up for arguments. This is the standard world over![/s]

Thank you, and have a good day!!!

I repeat, you're typing trash.

Why do you folk like to change others point(s) just to suit your narration?

Did you see anything like literacy in my response?
Why did you include "literacy" just to make yourself feel good?

Even your writings so far, referring to your various responses here and this one I quoted are filed with errors and also they are not well constructed. So, what is your point when you are not even perfect the way you want the other person to be?
Remove the log in your eyes before you tell others to remove theirs.

Peace!

u didn't get what I said, the new could be true or false, my argument is someone can get new weda in Moscow or not

Oh, OK then.

Angelfrost:
Then why are you typing in English?!! Why not type and comment solely in your native language?!!

What are the official languages in Japan and Germany?!! Does China have a single language or ethnic group?!! What about South Africa?!!

If you are not literate, then admit so, no shame in that... But, don't hide under the lame excuse of English not being our common language of communication to hide your grammatical or literacy level. That's just self deceit!

You're typing trash, good use of English language is a wrong way of rating people's success, intelligence and so on.

That is his point.

It seems this thing pain Umahi o.

See rant!

Two of them should settle their issues abeg. Both of them na thieves wey don steal public funds.

Kai, don't u know how journalism works? Do u know some sources will willingly approch journalists. Authenticity can be questioned but someone does not have to go to Russia in order to get news. And who told you there are no investigative journalists in Moscow currently?

But you believed the news of risen/increased stock rate amid the sanction?

Na sentiment go keel you, continue!

I knew those news of increased/risen stock rate and all that are manipulated and desperate actions by the Russia government to paint a picture of all is well.

All is not well with Russia's economy and economy, forget those stubborn acts by their leader, time will tell.

To the put in asslickers, that one is not propaganda but this one is right?

Na hatred of USA and sentiment go keel una.

Hope uzodima's wife is the finest 1st lady in Nigeria so I doubt if he will want to have a side chick.

Do you know the story behind how she became the first lady?
Or you think that woman(first lady) is the one that gave birth to this woman fighting the side chick in this post?

Moreover, people cheat on prettier woman, so your point is not valid.

Note: I'm not supporting cheats, I'm only enlightening you concerning the actual story

Lostchild:
My opinion below is base from my travels experienced

Garri originate from south south people of the Urhobos. The name garri originate from the urhobo word "igarri"

The original stable food of the south east people of the Igbo's is it not"akpu" ?

The original stable food of the south west people of the yoruba's is "amala" and ?

The original stable food of the north people of the Hausa 's is "tunwo" right?

The original stable food of the south south people of the Benin / edo's is "pounded yam"

The original stable food of the south south people of the urhobos's is "garri. Even their starch consumption extracted from cassava is alternative.

Even the ijaws and the itsekiri are heavily influence by the urhobos cuisine.

If anyone tells you that, garri is from the sw, se, or north nigeria, they are lieing to you.

Garri origination from south south. (Urhobos)

LoL, you're a comedian o.

It has an unclear origin or history.

DOA!

Hellooooo, awayu!!!

MichaelSokoto:
Wow!
Popular ppl all quite seem to knw themselves right 4rm d onset!

God keep connecting me to d right ppl abeg!

I noticed that too...

One thing I noticed is popular people always know each other from start.

Some of them only use rags to riches stories to sell more markets, trend and get people's sympathy, but in the real sense they are riches to more riches.

May God keep granting me the right and needed connections, Amen!

The guy just got a job because election is around the corner and politicians will be caring now.

A guy came to me last night, with a story that he went for interview somewhere in a state he has not been before and he was robbed of his gadgets and other belongings.

He begged me to assist with whatever I have, I was still thinking of what help to offer him until he brought out a church certificate and was waving it in my face, apparently to portray himself as a responsible and honest person.


Another came with a story of his wife about to deliver via cs blah blah blah last year, this year he came again to tell me the wife did not survive it but he needs money to balance the baby's feed money.

The thing is people are using it as scam, making it difficult to know those that genuinely need help.

I remember when I was in Lagos, something happened in Ilaje(at that junction) in Ajah, a lady accosted and offered a one young man begging people for money aka professional begger with a job of about 40k to 50k/month.

The guy declined the offer by saying "Enemy of progress, I tell you sey I dey find work? Abeg comot here."
Imagine

It is well sha.

Just be smart and wise when rendering help to avoid ripoff from scammers.

Lagos palaver

Let them keep having misconception about men, it doesn't affect my standard and those of other men who know their worth and what they are doing in anyway.

These people and making marriage look like a no-go area sef.
So why did he bring the issue to social media?

You guys should go and sort the issue because social media won't bring any meaningfulthig to it.
If it is dissolving of the union, you guys should do that and if it is amendment, atonement and makeup, you guys should just do it and stop bringing every relationship or marriage issue to social media for validation OR online judgement biko.


I have nothing to say regarding the allegation, even if I hear from her because I am not a judge.

Solvelink:
Or, guy! i am not lazy like you na...

That one go hit em body wella.

Or, "Bros, don't worry when you buy your own car, you go know whatsup..."



Back to the post, I don't see anything wrong in that sha, maybe it is from my view/perspective.
For someone like me, yes I'm a jovial person but I do read people before joking with them.
He would have sensed OR observed you well, i.e if he is my kind of person before making such jokes.

Bro, no dey take things serious, he is a man like you na.
Abi you feel sey you senior am and as such you don't like the joke. If that is the case, you can just ignore him next time, he will get the message and react the way you want him to i.e stop joking with you.

Note: if you can not flow OR accommodate some people's flaws, don't bother opening your boundaries to them.
Instead of opening it and whining over it later on.

My first sim was a glo sim, that one should be 16 years+, I later did an exchange/swap with my late elder brother(May his soul continue to rest in peace), he gave me an mtn sim and collected the glo sim.
The MTN should be 15 years or so, I can't remember.
I am still using it, it is my direct line.

I have used many other lines especially airtel and glo, mainly for the bonuses they give to new users, after that(3 months or so) I dump the sims and get another, but I don't do that anymore.

I remember when mtn gave me free airtime in celebration for reaching a particular age with them.

If you don't know something just ask or ignore it, instead of laughing at others hustle...

People do nail cutter, knife sharpener, bucket mender, hawk brooms, Dunlop slippers, and many other things like that.

A lot of people buy catapult, Nigeria has enough population for you to start worrying who and who will buy it.

If he is not making sales, he would have changed his line of business na.

MarketDispatch:
Could it be the Company you were working for was not making money because you and your Colleagues were Fraudulently using the Company provided resources to divert Contracts meant for the Company into your own and your Colleagues Pockets.

You sir, are one of those Employees that hinder Company growth

You're one of the reasons Nigeria is having the kind of leaders she is having.

You're not emotionally intelligent.

Reading is different, understanding it is also different.

Sorry to say, you lack understanding.

I clearly stated those that were doing that and I also said I left mid-month with reasons.

Again, the excuse of not making money is invalid because according to my knowledge that practice started not up to a month before I joined and the company has existed for long.
The possible cause was as a result of the high handedness of those that were running the company.
How will you justify, knowingly frustrating people so that they can leave the job with earning that month salary for reasons best known to them?
Do you think inhumane and wicked decision doesn't have repercussion?

Lol, season of denial don start.

Well done!

My mouth and my hands, to bargain/discuss and confirm payment respectively.

People working in some private sector in Nigeria are really trying, no lie.

That was how one company in Ajah want to use people anyhow.
The owners were outside and the frontier was a lady, she will wait for month ending to draw close, that is when she will start frustrating you just to make you leave and forfeit your salary.

My colleagues used them instead, i.e they will use the company's name, marketing allowance and official car to get contracts, they will take it to Alaba OR all these people and run it themselves with those people and pocket the money.

I was part of those that left mid-month because I had better things to do.

HRSweetness:
You know, I've been asking about Piggy Vest and how reliable they are since late last year especially after hearing the rumors about piggy vest investing in a business that turned out to be fraudulent (although they denied it).

I really would like to know how reliable they are. Can you really vouch for their credibility? LOL.

Hello, is this Jane?

@Lyydia
You can invest in:
** Sound fundamental stocks that are consistent with dividend payments.
** Government Bonds
** Treasury Bills, or
** Mutual Funds........ precisely Money Market Fund.

Search for T-Bills, Mutual Funds or Nigerian Stock Exchange Market Pick Alerts in the Investment Section to learn more.

Please I need more enlightenment on government bonds, for sometimes now it has been running through my mind but I don't know how to go about it.

Can you help?

[quote author= post=111260828]SOUTH EAST: IS IT NOT TOO LATE?

I have read the recent transmissions by Senator Bukola Saraki directed at my Igbo tribe. I have deliberately kept mum on this as I had earlier resolved to speak less on Igbos as regards the 2019 Elections and 2023 Presidency having said quite a bit. 

However seeing as some of my brethren have swallowed the cheap bait, I will chip this in just to keep the reality before us, at least for posterity sake. Truth is bitter but it's still the best medicine. 

My people say; 'He who does not remember where the rain started beating him, will not remember where it stopped'. 

REWIND TO 2014. 
A new National Party was being conceived. Political Parties, political players and Regions were being wooed to the new alliance. 

'We' Igbos (read South East) vehemently refused to touch it even with a long pole. We packaged, sold to ourselves and bought the baseless propaganda that it was an Islamic alliance that would birth an "Islamic" and "Hausa" Party. Simply because those our brethren heavily invested in the PDP at the time were afraid of losing their vested selfish interests.
Till today I'm still trying to fathom the basis for that wicked and twisted deceit especially as many of those Igbo elites who sold that dummy have since ported to the same APC.

We failed to even identify with that new Alliance. Hence the Party, APC was birthed without any remarkable input from us or presence. The few amongst us who aligned were called all kinds of names and abused to high heavens by us even when they were proven right afterall.

Thus the few Igbos who were part of it were at best fringe players as they didn't have the required clout to make serious demands and do the necessary political wheeling and dealing required in Politics to strike the hard bargains since politics is all about interests and numbers. They were even suspect, so much so that it was only their personal political sagacity that gave them whatever they got.

That Party went on to win the Presidential Election which in truth, most of us never believed it could or would, because of our half baked permutations and poor understanding of Nigerian politics. But it did. 

Curiously we turned up at the fore front of telling this same Party how it should share it's 'spoils of war'. We became hypocritical moral champions with an over bloated sense of entitlement. Who does that, in all political reality and practicality? But we did, even while vehemently and vociferously still refusing to shift our position, style and rhethoric.

We dug in. Supported every bad thing and person against the Party, the elected President and the Administration while denying any and every good done to and for our Region.

Fast forward to where we are today. Almost four years after the 2015 misadventure, we have stayed put at 2015, refusing to move forward, refusing to shift grounds, refusing to play pragmatic politics, telling ourselves the same lies we cooked and bought in 2015 and some more. 

Now barely 5 months to another election, we have started again saying "APC cannot give Presidency to Igbos in 2023". "Buhari cannot hand over to an Igbo man because Buhari hates Igbos". "APC is deceiving you", bla bla bla.

Of course. We will believe Saraki, who has only but a fanthom dream of becoming President and whose only known record is selfishness but we can't believe Buhari who's already President and who has a record of voluntarily picking two great Igbo sons as running mates in the past? Chukwu aju.

It is interesting and vital to note here that the PDP which many of us still proudly support and adore was in power for 16 solid years and in those years there were 4 Presidential Inaugurations and on none of those was an Igbo man found worthy by the PDP of even Vice Presidency and we are still bold to say it is the APC that has not even finished one and a half tenure that doesn't want to give power to Igbos. Odi nma. 

NOW; Seriously, let's be sincere. As things stand today politically, why would the APC even hand power to us Igbos in 2023? 
On what grounds? 
On what records?
On what politics?
Is power given to anyone? 
Is it an appeasement or a gift? 

The APC is a political party. The main focus of a political Party is to hold power and keep it to enable it deliver on its agenda. So if the APC reads that the SE does not want the Presidency or does not have the capacity to help them win and keep power, they will stick with the regions that can and work with individuals who are interested. 

Make no mistake, I have always said, I do not blame us Igbos for the decision majority of us took in 2015. It's our right. But continuing to pretend that it was other regions, Buhari or the APC that made us do what we did then or remain where we are today is purely self deceit and I refuse to play that ostrich game. 

As far back as 2014, I and many others made that argument that Igbo Presidency was very feasible in 2023, ONLY under under the APC, ONLY IF we did a couple of things right politically. I personally continued to speak loudly on that even after the 2015 elections until when I realized that we were not ready to play the politics that was required and now I dare say it may be too late. Or is it not? Time will tell.

For now, we can continue to tell ourselves that we cannot hold the Presidency of Nigeria. I heard and read many of our brethren go from PDP to Biafra/seccesion (read IPOB) to Referendum to "Igbos do not need Presidency but Restructuring" etc forgetting that all that didn't lie squarely with us alone. We think other regions are not reading our body language?

I really don't care what Saraki writes or says because they've all come to realize that it's very easy to play us like a flute. So like Saraki, like Fani Kayode, like Fayose, like Atiku, even Jonah Jang of all people, they keep playing us.

I've learnt not to bother myself anymore to avoid unnecessary mentions from nonentities.
As some of us have said, it's good governance we want, even if only one village will be producing the Presidents. So be it.

Ka Chineke mezie okwu. [/quote]Just keep quiet please

Who made you Igbo?
You don't in anyway have any attribute of an average Igbo man.

The only Igbo line you know is "ka chukwu mezie okwu" that is all.

After supporting your darling daddy in mishandling the country, you're now talking from another side of your mouth.
