PropertiesRe: Omonile Lawyer's Rant Regarding The Demolition Of Houses In Epe by baffylander(m): 9:32am On Mar 08, 2013
I do not have any insider info particularly involving the Epe demolition, but i know as a matter of fact that no matter how many decades you occupy a land marked for purposes other than residential, you always remain a tenant at will and deserve no notice to quit ( kindly confirm with relevant laws of the land) hence your building can be DEMOLISHED at any time the government wishes without as much as a weeek's notice considering you cant legalise an illegality and using the land for residential purposes when same was not earmarked for same is an act void ab initio. "THIS IS NOT AN ENDORSEMENT OF THE ACT(S) OF THE LASG AS REGARDS THIS MATTER)
FamilyRe: Why Are You Still Married? by baffylander(m): 7:12pm On Feb 19, 2013
Well, I dunno about fairy tale marriages but I have been married for two years and saying we both have been tested (either by each other or the fates)would be an understatement. However IMO,marriages aren't all bout the glamour n all but bout 2 people from different backgrounds blending and making their relationship work.I'm crazy in love with my wife and she reciprocates and although we both have our moments and all, we resolve same ASAP and I know in my heart of hearts that I would literarily and figuratively 'be dead' if I wasn't married to her. #stilllovingyoucrazydear#
PoliticsRe: Panic In Presidency Over Mounting Tension In Military - Talk Of Mutiny? by baffylander(m): 4:39pm On Jan 31, 2013
Real-Mccoy:
Nigeria runs a tribal army. Have you forgotten how Abacha and other northern soldiers systematically implicated SW generals in that coup? Have you forgotten how Dumbauzu was disrespecting GEJ because he was not a northerner? Be real with yourself, Nigeria is divided long before 1966 coup
Bro, i understand the fact that the army seems like a tribal one but u shld also understand that the problem of lopsidedness in the composition of officers and men of the nigerian army was not created today or yesterday, it was entrenched in the polity the moment we had more Northern states compared to the southern parts.
P.S
- I have only heard of a VERY few coup plotters who admit to having being involved in the planning and execution of same (considering its a capital offence). We only hear "i was implicated"...were there no meetings/consultations before these coup(s)were eventually pulled off?...Coup planning is an expensive venture which mostly results in the death(s) of people....
- I am also sure GEJ had his pound of flesh too by removing Danbazau as the COAS....

Whenever i hear cries of 'we were marginalised before, now its our turn to do same', i always smile and narrow it down to inadequate information about the recruitment process of the army and the military at large. The army recruits evenly across all the states of the federation be it other ranks, regular courses, Direct Short Service or Direct Short Service Combatant. What i mean is, if 111 people are to be recruited be it in the officers cadre or other ranks, 3 are chosen from each state across the federation including the FCT. If we are to look at the number of states in the SE (5) compared to the 19 northern states (excluding the FCT oooo) or the 6 states in the South-West, i think it is only obvious these cries of marginalisation by the North is in order.
It is pertinent to note that the army remains one of the uniting institutions and its officers and men are among the most disciplined in the country. This is the reason why the army council and the COAS should not turn a deaf ear to these allegations and internal wranglings. Most insurrections and unrest from the military anywhere in the world had its roots in lack of confidence in the leaderdship (whether such claims were justified or not is a matter for another day) and when same was not treated with dispatch, resulted in unnecessary deaths and chaos.
Just my 2 cents
PoliticsRe: “you Cannot Instigate The People Against Me” – Jonathan Reacts by baffylander(m): 4:06pm On Oct 31, 2012
The President is being shielded from the feelings of hardship and anger currently ravaging the land hence the reason for this unfortunate statement he caused to be issued by his attack dog, if not he should have known by now that the average Nigerian is disillusioned and doesnt need anyone to instigate him/her against the govt. The President already instigated and still instigates Nigerians against himself by his policies which aims at keeping food off the table and smiles off our faces.
Now where are the attack dogs attached to Nairaland?
RomanceRe: The Ideal Length Of Courtship Before Marriage? by baffylander(m): 2:32pm On Oct 16, 2012
In my opinion, the length of time doesnt make a difference in the quality of the marriage. I dated my wife for 5 months before i got married and i still feel like a king whenever i'm with her...(love u sweets!!!)
