Abagworo: He wasn't older than you and is still younger than you. Don't use achievement to estimate one's age.
achievement Bros in no way did i use achievement to estimate his age. I have re-read my earlier post. I used age or peer group to estimate. We all can tell who is our age mate at every point in time or at least give a rough estimate. My point is that if i i was 20 then kanu was at least 25 if not more and that is a conservative estimate. There is no way kanu is now younger than my age group. No offense meant to him or anyone else but i am sure he is well well above 41.
Kanu has had a successful career and brought glory to Nigeria. We thank God for his life. That aside, kanu is well above 41. I remember years back while i was in the university, was it world cup or Olympics Nigeria won or almost won? I remember watching a couple of matches with friends (not a football fan). Kanu then was way older than me. That should be 1993-1994. I will be 44 this year. How then can kanu be 41?
Fine, fayemi renovated the place. Do you now expect fayose to keep spending or wasting money renovating the place again? After fayemi fixed ikosi warm springs was the place not meant to run as a business and generate income for its maintenance and further add excess to the purse of government? If you and I refuse to visit the place to spend our vacations due to various reasons eg security, police harassment on the road, bad road etc but will rather go to uk, dubai etc one will not expect fayose to keep spending scarce resources on a non viable venture. Ikosi warm springs is a business and if a business is not viable it becomes a money pit.

Pls quote me with solutions or message 07050464961 to help a brother. Pls no insults; cos if you are in my shoes, you will feel frustrated cos of the humiliation I've been going through cos of my stature. Thanks in anticipation.
zionmade1: my brother my brother u too much oo i guess u ve searched thoroughly well and come to realise that i am so unlike u. I speak hausa fluently both the zamfara dialect and the kaduna dialect. the day i left the north my hausa friends held me tight not to go, two of my neighbors kids were crying. i had to take them to the park along with their father just to have a last glimpse of them. I got a lot of gifts, bags of onions, baskets of tomatoes, raw fura, camel meat etc. i was in madagali adamawa in december wen a market was bombed, I helped get hausa people affected to the nearest hospital.
Here in south i communicate with hausas only with Hausa language because i always want them to feel comfortable and loved. some of them come to my house to plug phones before going around to sew clothes or repair shoes. I tracked u to tell u that wen hatred grows so much in u it becomes cancerous. u have 123 pages on NL the entire 123 pages have no single educative or peaceful comment but rather its filled with tribal hatred. I have lived with yorubas and almost dated a yoruba girl. I can also speak yoruba but not that fluent. dont allow hatred rupture ur heart. Igbos may want secession, its their right. I needed to call ur attention to let u know that ethnic or tribal bigotry will get u nowhere, hatred kills, flee from it
While i appreciate you sincere and innocent love for coexistence with the Hausa folks which is admirable, I am sorry to say you might be naive. I say this in a respectful way and not intended to demean you. I do not know how old you are and how experienced. You might just be relating with people based on a heart that is pure. Now let me explain something to you. When there is a problem in that zampara or whereever you stay in the North, it is that those your friends crying for you not to leave that will be the once to slit your throat while shouting allah arkbar! If you succeed in hiding under your bed, it is one of your neighbors kids that was crying for you not to leave that will point out you location and beg for you to be slaughtered as an infidel. Please that is the fact, it has happened over and over in the past and it will always happen as that is their nature.
Lolz. The surge Jonathan carried out during the end period of his administration would have eradicated boko haram if it were continued by the buhari administration. The arms ordered including the tanks, surveillance aircrafts, Apcs, mrav had started arriving. The NSA even hired foreign mercenaries experienced in counterinsurgency to lead the battle and they were effectively crushing boko haram. Remember the successful surge just before the elections? But APC screamed that the then administration did not have confidence in the Nigeria army commanders and shouted to the high heavens that white men were spotted leading Nigerian strike troops and piloting our aircrafts. Buhari then entered and canceled the contracts with the mercenaries based on national pride that he will lead from the front. My point is that if the tempo had continued instead of bastardizing the gains made by the past administration then further living in a fools paradise declaring that boko haram had been defeated we would not be in this current situation where boko haram is resurrecting.
Gosh!! where do i start from What kind of local story is this?
1. Your wife should have discussed with you first before her sister visited you both-she was very wrong but everything after that made you look so petty.You were counting water used to bathe and asking your cousin helper to report to you first? If she wants to eat eggs will that also be reported to you?Do you also measure yam with ruler in your house? Your actions have sown a very bad seed - belittling your SIL & your wife.I do not blame your wife for being very angry but she should have cooled off first and expressed her annoyance to you without flaring up.
Just a quick question OP,if your sister visits and your wife tells your little cousin to report to her first before doing anything she asks for nko?How would that sit with you?Just know your wife will never forget,be ready for your siblings to recieve the same hot soup
Yes,you should have been told before her sis landed ,but the deed had already been done.You should have controlled yourself instead of acting like a miserable being.What did your SIL do wrong?she probably thought she was coming to visit human beings who would treat her well not knowing her husband is a hot water measurer Best approach would have been to discuss the issue with your spouse quietly.See disgrace!
Your wife raised her voice,you raised your own too,asked her to leave your room.'Yoour Room'??!!! i thought you both are married? I cant even believe what i'm reading here. In the same sentence you talked about not wanting to be a woman beater.I do not see any reason why beating should come into this abi you normally beat or you were raised by a beater?Violence should not be an option.ah ahhh!!!
Both of you displayed shameful behavior and i don't blame your SIL for leaving,you disgraced her infront of your cousin helper,you disgraced your wife,your wife as disgraced you & you have made her feel unwelcome. Tueh She will go and tell the story to family members who already don't like you and you will officially enter hate list with tattered reputation.
Please do the world a favour and delay this wedding till you both learn to behave like adults.
If you want to be the leader of your home you must learn to conduct yourself with dignity and self respect.You have to lead by example. Discussions can be had without raising of voices.If your wife starts to shout,tell her you won't listen till she calms down and addresses you like an adult.I also expect her to do the same to you.That way you both will learn to trust each other and start building your little unit,she will also stop seeing the need to tell every little deed to her family as you will become her best friend and confidante.
Normally you should be in honeymoon phase but you people are already acting like cat and dog. Good luck o.
By the way the way you worded little cousin and 2 big pots are you trying to imply that the girl is too little to do chores in general or specifically chores for SIL? If she is little,ideally she shouldn't be in your home doing housework.
Bros you said it all. The guy is not mature for marriage. And to the Poster. You ought to have discussed the hot water issue with your wife and not rush to give instructions to your house help if you were unhappy with using gas to boil water. You should have over looked the gas issue no matter the cost at that material time because the lady was a visitor and did not know how you operate in your house. In my opinion as someone who has been married for 15 years you did not handle the issue maturely. You embarrassed you wife in front of her sister. This is not an issue of "she talks back at me". Abi when its not as if you married a zombi. You better go apologize to her, get her sisters number and also apologize to help your wife safe face in front of her family.
AbelDjassi: Stick to what the Bleep you know bro. (1) FFK attended Cambridge and not Oxford (2) Unlike his father who actually distinguished himself in his chosen profession, your dope-fiend operates mainly as a political jobber (to borrow a popular phrase from our political lexicon) and nothing much more
i. Excerpt of the biography taken from his own website
Footnote: Present any more farcical arguments and AbelDjassi will be back to set you straight.
My error. In mixed up Cambridge for oxford. The fact remains that he is a lawyer even if he practiced for 5 years and left the profession. Lots of lawyers do that. The fact also is that he was appointed as a minister of the federal republic of Nigeria out of millions of others which could not have happened if he was not qualified to be nominated. There are other offspring of well know politicians of the past on the same league as late chief Remi Fani Kayode that you do not hear of today. After all femi's father has been dead for over 40 years. Please call a spade a spade. He is an accomplished man. After all isn't it him this tread and discussion is all about? Bros on a lighter note on his 50th birthday both Ibb and Obj ( two ex presidents) hosted different birthday dinner events in his honor. Please lets give honor and respect to whom it is due. You might to agree with his statements but that should not demean the fact that he is an accomplished man based on merit.
Naijaguy12345: Okorocha has a point, Femi is nobody . He's riding on the back of his fathers name, take the coward name Fani Kayode out of his name and nobody know him. He should be busy fighting custody of his children whom bianca gave to Ojukwu, those children belongs to Femi fani kayode.
Smh. Ffk is a nobody? A oxford trained lawyer is a nobody? Who in your generation has attended oxford or you think we are talking of lasu? A lawyer that practiced and consulted for years? An ex minister of the federal republic of nigeria in his 30ties? Better use Google my bro.
MediumStout: Why not send his son to ekiti state university? What's the difference between covenant and studying abroad when covenant lecturers are mostly expatriates? Fayose is a hypocrite
Covenant university cost N750,000 per session which is a little over 1000 pounds. I do not think that is in anyway comparable to studying abroad. Universities in the UK cost in excess of 10,000k pounds per session for foreign students.
Yeezyayo: drop ya mobile number let's talk or chat on WhatsApp to strike a deal if possible
Bros, the worst thing you can do to yourself is to buy a used phone especially a high-end phone. You do not know the source. By the time SARS etc comes knocking at your door over some thing you know nothing about you surely will be sorry. Someone i heard of years back, his friends had spent close to 1.5m getting him out of 20k phone wahala and 2 moths later they were still on the case. Just a word of advice to you.
No more drew money to sponsored themKunle Oluwatobi WROTE: We do forget easily and carry on like it never happened, I think it is GOOD TO REFRESH our MEMORIES. 1.

*WHERE ARE THE WAILERS?* "Over 20 billion dollars unremitted to the Federation account, and if nothing is done by 2015 upward, Nigeria will know what economic crisis is" *~ * Nenadi Usman took 3.5B naira. * Fayose took 3B naira. * Obanikoro took 4Billion naira. * Olu Falae took 100M naira. * Tony Anenih - 400M naira. * Oritsejafor - $35M * Former Air Chief Amosu - 2Billion naira. * Lucky Igbinedion-16B naira. *Bode-George and Dabo -100B naira * Jolly Nyame-2.4B naira. * Joshua Dariye-700M naira. *Nyesom Wike stole #4b. * Diezzani with $20 billion missing oil money?

yarimo: Mumu women ,in nigeria constitution their is freedom of association and right to live in any where in nigeria . BURATAI and the IGP of police over to you people
I wanted to write a detailed response to this heartless, insensitive slowpoke. But i see other sane nairalanders have given him a piece of their mind. Really yerimo could an issue this sensitive be a joking matter to you to be taken lightly?
mzjaney: That kid is not unhealthy thats baby fat. She's only got full rounded chubby chicks. Have u taken a good look at her she is not abnormal. she looks just as a well fed and healthy baby should look. The only reason people see this little girl as obese is because of her extra chicks which she took frm her dad. Take a good look at seyi u will see he also got chicks.
That Baby is not unhealthy.
I concur with you. The cheeks is from the father on closer observation. She is probably baby fat also. But i still suggest Seyi keep the child out of social media since for a while her pictures have caused uncomplimentary comments not just with Madam Kemi, but other people also. How many people will sheyi quarrel with over comments about his daughter?
Seyi should keep his kid out of social media. She is his daughter and he loves her. But lets face the fact, that kid is fat and unhealthy hence the talk about her. Abi do you see anyone throwing shades at other normal looking celebrity babies? We all love our kids and are proud of them, but if your kid is not the best looking you do not go around flaunting him or her on social media exposing yourself and the innocent child to ridicule.
Chiefpriest1: Hmm. That's naija police for you. But they still have a few good eggs though.
This couple could just be innocent, yet their pictures are already all over the internet which their grandchildren will still meet.
Anyway, sometimes even the most diligent among us fall into this kind of trouble.
As for me, I have resolved never to buy anything second hand, not even phones. And if it has to be cars, then due diligence must be done.
Bro they should just consider this as a blessing in disguise. Once they are released they should simply get a competent lawyer. This could be their meal ticket out of poverty
Na wah ohh. Ghana girls don de fine . I remember when my boss and his friends in the late 90ties went to Ghana for weeked goodtime. They came back all sad because the said all the girls were 'wohwoh', very black with low waist and short legs. What has happened over there? cos all their chicks even the black ones now fine die!
Guitarlife: dont answer thisguy, they will sack him if you do so.
I think if it comes to him being disciplined by the bank then so be it. The gtb guy obviously should not be working in the bank in the first place because he has showed gross professionalism. HE IS PUTTING EYE IN CUSTOMERS MONEY!
