Buhari has from now till the 29th of May to make these kinds of pronouncements. After then the only things that will matter are deliverables.

We are about to enter into some very interesting times.

Nairaland is entrenching itself in the gutters with threads like this. This is shameful.

I love you express your self and construction of sentences.
Wish I could do that, mine always looks like am just entering school (lol)

On the serious note, feel your attack is not neccessary, this all I started when he/ she supported an earlier post on the fact that jb is downsizing and might not actually be recruiting and I believe I read where he/she also expressed sorrow and prayed for those dismissed.

I learnt finding out the origin of issues the hard way oooo. Let's just drop this


Do u read books a lot? I want my written english to be as good as yours or even better,sef.

Yes I read a lot. From magazines to opinion pieces to books(fiction and non-fiction). Reading is a habit that will pay off in many ways than you can imagine.

Cheers

Bawss the party pooper.

Lol. I know my countrymen, it's very easy for them to get carried away in the moment and lose sight of what is important. This isn't a Nigerian Idol competition, making the final cut isn't all that matters. Real work awaits Buhari and his team and till they deliver all this outburst of emotions is misplaced.

They way people are gushing over Buhari is amusing. Dude has yet to assume office and NLanders are all starry-eyed. The problem with such an attitude is that it sets us up to be easily screwed over again, like we are all drunk on his person and willing to overlook any short comings. This is bad. What is needed now is levelheaded objectivity and not all this pointless sentimentality.

Buhari has yet to prove himself, until he does he should be watched with a healthy dose of suspicion.

Will you people stop already. The Almighty is in no way involved in politics or how Nigerians choose their leaders, if He were then we would never have had the likes of Abacha as our rulers.

I find it hard to read d books, they as boring as f*ck

I prefer d movie....

Boring ke. Just say you are not a reader.

Princecalm:
can you compare Nigeria's population to that of China?

China is the most populous nation in the world, what are you talking about?

Uptown Asian Cuisine ought to be on that list. Obviously the blogger who compiled that list is a newbie in Abuja.

ladymichael:
Nooooooooo!!!!!! No dear, I personally have seen the expatriates driving themselves.I don't know whether you work there but if u do then maybe you don't know or assume you know.

I remember asking my self why they won't get jeeps as per our road. Conditions with all the money they have made from us

So yes though I see nigerian drivers like u stated but for sure I seen the oyinbos several times

A large number of their cars are driven by Nigerians. That statement doesn't exclude the fact that some of their vehicles may still be driven by expatriates. However this isn't the crux of the matter; I was calling attention to a wrong. Its OK, will not be pursuing this any further.

[quote author=eagleeyez post=31838177][/quote]Mr Road Safety, this here is a thread about recruitment. Someone rightly pointed out that JBN, which is one of the largest employers of labour in this country, is currently downsizing because of the difficult economic straits that country is in. Let that sink in for a moment; many people who depend on JBN for an income to feed, take care of themselves, send their children to school, pay for rent and basically live their lives, will no longer be able to do so, at least not with JBN because they have been downsized. In spite of all of this you couldn't resist to get on here and tell everyone how happy you are that the company is facing a difficult time, ergo you are happy that those people will be kicked into the job market, that many roads bridges and other civil infrastructure which you and many Nigerians need will not be built or completed. You even went as far as saying that their expatriate staff kill and endanger the lives of Nigerians (apparently arriving at this from ONE case with which you were privy about).

Are we supposed to warm up to you after your comment? (That's rhetorical so you can spare us your rejoinder)

See a doctor ASAP

The politics section on NL is a joke these days. One ludicrous story after another as the political parties fight themselves. Many reasonable headed people seem to be avoiding this place because of all this insanity. A pity.

eagleeyez:
Am kinda like "good for them" you can't
Come into nigeria and look down on us. You need to see how they treat people,remember when they used to drive recklessly and kill our people then govt turns the other way? Until when they repeated that one time and our people burnt their truck

On the other hand, am deeply saddened that our people will be down sized, I hope God assists them in getting jobs on time and provides for them.as for the expatriates to be downsized, they should go back and let's see whether they will enjoy or behave anyhow in their country rubbish!!!

What is this one saying? When did any expatriate in JB drive recklessly so as to endanger and kill people? A large number of JB vehicles are driven by Nigerian staff BTW. Typical Nairalander and xenophobia you need to come to terms with the fact that there is no bogeyman hunting Nigerians.

Trick alert!!!
Microsoft tends to turn window 10 to an annual licensed thing i.e u pay anually and will also stop support for window 8, dat is the more reason they r giving pirators free upgrade

Windows 10 will not be "annual licensed". Where did you dig this up from?

^ Ha!

The way you say it like BBC is a parent choosing not to punish an errant child. With Jeremy Clarkson the BBC has been able to make as much as £75m a year from Top Gear. He is their golden goose so it's understandable that he was given a rather long leash.

koice:
I don't expect GOT to exceed the 8th season. HBO don't like pushing their luck when it comes to hit shows like GOT. HBO likes to keep it complicated, but simple, to allow enough leg room to maneuver. Then wrap sh*t up when it REALLY gets complicated - Quit while you're ahead and sh*t.

Yeah that's true a really long series stands the real risk of losing its focus and audience but I think much of this also depends on the creator of the story George R Martin. He says the story will be complete in the 7th book, so far he has only written 5. The TV series is just rounding up the 3rd book. HBO, the producers and the author will have to decide how this all plays out, it certainly will be interesting to see how they do.

So its NL's fault that rape cases are on the increase??

Until we can verify the number of proven rape cases over a period of time we can't say for certain whether rapes have increased. What is only known here is that NL pushes these stories to the front page regularly, that's not an indication that the crime is increasing. This increase in reports may in fact be for strategic reasons.

cycline404:
Wait o
Was I the only one that noticed it;
The rate of rape. Husband stabbing wife. Wife chopping off joysticks. ..All those information are so high this days. .

What is going on??

It will be interesting to know if there really is a spike in the occurrence of these crimes but until statistical evidence is released, from say the police or the courts, (assuming they even document these things) we cannot really know. I think that it's because these events are pushed to the fore by the mods that's why it appears there is an increase.

Nairaland making sure it maintains its daily quota of rape stories. Click on folks, the more clicks the more cash.

suxxman:
Till Eternity.............. Lol

Like Dallas? That would be horrible.

There has to be strong evidence to conclude that anybody was indeed raped. Has a medical examiner confirmed these allegations or is the media already passing judgement on a case without due process?

People should not rush to any conclusions till these kinds of stories are confirmed medically because it could easily be a smear campaign and men are wrongly seen as guilty until proven innocent.

A troll thread.

A company that is valued at over $700bn is fading abi?

OP has just globally displayed his ignorance on trade-in programs in the consumer goods industry.

atlwireles:
A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered that the alleged mastermind of the April 14 Nyanya bomb blast, Aminu Ogwuche and five orders be tried in camera.

The correct expression is "in camera" but the wording on the frontpage says "on camera". The mods should kindly make the correction.

TRUE TALK! NA9JA HACKERS NO DEY SLEEP

Quit hyping Nigerian thieves.

Just listened to Kendrick Lamar's album To Pîmp A Butterfly. I don't know, this album has yet to stir me. Oh well will see how I feel about it a couple of days from now.

@ Ollah1. What makes you certain that people (in this country) who are still using the S3 and G2 will upgrade to newer models? I think that if anything we will continue to see the proliferation of brands like Infinix and Tecno and these OEMS have shown that they are not keen on rolling out the latest ROMS on their products.

Even the top android OEMS roll out updates in selected batches, there has never been a uniform adoption of the latest update across a particular brand. That there is the android fragmentation that many have complained about and its not going away soon.
