May be u don't live in port harcourt.but frm UTC bus stop to lagos bus stop there is hardly any traffic that's why taxi's collect #50 infact in 30 minutes on foot u can cover the distance

I have kept asking myself why GEJ never replies opposition polticians calling him all kinds of harsh names,abusing his government or his wife?.people like Atiku,Amaechi,kwankwanso,Tinubu,Obj, are frontrunners in calling GEJ very harsh names.Is it a case of him allowing for free speech or is it a case of the Mafian who keeps mum and hits you hard when you least expect?ObJ was classical in replying those who had contrary views about him and his govt.Idris Abdulkareem tasted the harshness of babas tongue in the jagajaga episode.Amaechi is another person who is known to react to contrary opinions.Tinubu,Atiku,kwankwanso are known to do the same.

The only question I have for the governor is when you award contracts to government cronies(who have now fallen out with him) Timothy Nsirim and Emeka Nwoke were both serving LGA chairmen then while Wike was Chief of staff.And why wait till now after so many yrs to comment.why didn't he take them to the EFCC at that time?.I believe he just playing plain Nigerian styled politics.

Politics / Governor Amaechi Is Now Less Busy,see The Proof. by benson81(m): 3:07pm On Oct 02, 2014
It appears the governor of rivers state is now less busy with Party affairs.we remember that ppl in the state had been complaining that his excellency shud pay more attention to state affairs as this was suffering becos of his party affairs.For the past 3 days he has been moving from one radio station to the other.this morning alone he was on love fm and Garden city fm.as usual he has been making damning statements against his oppositions and about his performance.But some that caught my attention were the fact that he gave a contract to construct the Ibaa road to Timothy Nsirim and Emeka woke who subsequently sublet the contract to the company of Nyesom wike and nothing was done as they shared the money amongst themselves and nothing was done.he also put it to the presenter at love fm that the station is a pro pdp and anti apc station.

The Judges and Lawyers in Rivers State had been Locked out of the State Judiciary complex for months prior to the fracas on monday.They say the reason is because Judiciary workers are on strike.is it Just this or there is a political undertone?.I want to ask when ASUU and Nasu were on strike was the gates of the universities or there own offices locked up?.When Asup was on strike were they locked out of there offices?.When NMA was on strike where the Hospitals locked up? Most recently Unity schools Teachers are on strike are the unity schools locked up and gates bound in chains?

It all seemed alien-like when i saw them, the schools we had in my community seemed like death traps, with the buildings dilapidated and slowly collapsing due to age, i used to imagine how old those buildings must be, not to talk of the kind of teachers we had, most of them took extra holidays and came to school whenever they wished, we were mostly taught Islamic doctrine and a little bit of arithmetic and English to go with, you would wonder where we the students got our motivation to keep attending school, it all seemed that school seemed to be the most exciting thing happening around us, even though we could not say we had even up to quarter of what you would regard as a stellar education. I myself had dreams to be different, to make my community a happening place, to make my family proud of me, to help all kids in my community have standard education, to put good roads and water in place for my people, but as i grew up, i faced reality and it dawned on me that my dreams would eventually amount to nothing, 'where would i start from?' was the question i asked myself frequently, i was willing to do anything to actualize my dreams, but everytime i tried to muster a little hope for the future, my dreams were dashed by reality .life went on like this for a long while until something happened sometime in August 2008,a group of men came to our community school and separated the male folk from the female folk, we were told that a lot is going to change in our lives in the next few months and advised to prepare for anything.The lessons we were having at school changed totally,we were now lectured in the reason why our lives and community had come to be like this, we were told by our instructors that our kind was hated and neglected in the whole of Nigeria, we were shown videos of how our kind performed roles of servants to the society in urban areas, how our kind seemed to poverty stricken and isolated in such towns and cities, we were told that we would be in the same situation if we tried traveling to such places in search of greener pastures. Therefore we had to do something that would make our lives and that of our families better, we were told that if we cooperated, our families would be rewarded with huge amounts of money and life would get better. We were then told that it would involve killing and suicide bombing for our plans to really work out. Already our minds were prepared for anything. That was how we took up arms to fight for better lives for ourselves and for our families.So next time you want to open your mouth to judge the youth who have joined boko haram,think of the situation of this young man, think of the plight of his family and underdevelopment that had eaten deep in to lives of everyone in their community. live positively!.

LifeIsGuhd: In response to Ezegozie, I created this thread!
I am really asking because i think some Girls are being used to achieve Sexual needs.

Take for instance, a student that is probably not going to marry in the next 5yrs.
And he is in a so called relationship; he doesn't spend on her, no allowance, yet a bleepful (sexful) relationship and every other sexual activities.
But she washes his clothes, does every domestic chores around his home and also satisfies his private needs!

Let me ask you officially

what do you gain from such a parasitic relationship ?

For the Boys, If you are not ready to spend on her, why are you ready to demand for sex?
my dear very few nigerian females stay in a relationship without one benefit or the other.in sch.if he does not gv money to her he helps her with tests and assignment,protects her etc even then she still cheats on him wit lecturers,older aristos.let me ask hw many Nigerian females giv kitten noting. 4 noting?

Music/Radio / Nigeria Has Majority Of Singers Rather Than Musicians by benson81(m): 8:39pm On Sep 15, 2014
According to wikipedia a musician (or instrumentalist) is a person who is talented[1] in making music or performing music creatively, or one who composes, conducts, or performs music.[2]

Musicians can specialize in any musical style, and some musicians play in a variety of different styles. Examples of a musician's possible skills include performing, conducting, singing, composing, arranging, and the orchestration of music.[3].With this definition I in my own opinion has more of singers than musicians.Let me ask amongst the popular so called musicians how many can play one instrument?.even in the singing they alter their voices using auto tune to make it sound better because they lack confidence in their natural voices.I am hating on them but I feel music should be for talented folks.

They are different dialects of ijaw.if u listen carefully u find out that there are similarities.for eg the Kalabari would greet by sayin 'tubara mu' while the person from Patani in delta state would say 'tebara'

Pardon me.that's a very important omission Bille and Bukuma."well the Bille clan are anothe eastern Ijaw people in Rivers State, Nigeria. The small clan is sometimes classified as a Kalabari clan but are unique clan on their own.The tribal seat is the town of Bille"

Culture / An Insight Into The Ijaws Of South South Nigeria by benson81(m): 8:53am On Sep 13, 2014
The Ijaw speak nine closely related Niger–Congo languages, all of which belong to the Ijoid branch of the Niger–Congo tree. The primary division between the Ijo languages is that between Eastern Ijo and Western Ijo, the most important of the former group of languages being Izon, which is spoken by about four million people.

There are two prominent groupings of the Izon language. The first, termed either Western or Central Izon (Ijaw) consists of Western Ijaw speakers: Ekeremor, Sagbama (Mein), Bassan, Apoi, Arogbo, Boma (Bumo), Kabo (Kabuowei), Ogboin, Tarakiri, and Kolokuma-Opokuma (Yenagoa).[citation needed] Nembe, Brass and Akassa (Akaha) dialects represent Southeast Ijo (Izon).[citation needed]. Buseni and Okordia dialects are considered Inland Ijo.[citation needed]

The other major Ijaw linguistic group is Kalabari. Kalabari is considered an Eastern Ijaw language but the term "Eastern Ijaw" is not the normal nomenclature. Kalabari is the name of one of the Ijaw clans that reside on the eastern side of the Niger-Delta (Abonnema, Buguma, Bakana, Degema etc.) who form a major group in Rivers State, hence their involvement in the fight for greater oil control. Other "Eastern" Ijaw clans are the Okrika, Ibani (the natives of Bonny, Finima and Opobo) and Nkoroo. They are neighbours to the Kalabari people in present day Rivers State, Nigeria.

Other related Ijaw subgroups which have distinct languages but very close kinship, cultural and territorial ties with the rest of the Ijaw are the Epie-Atissa, Engenni (also known as Ẹgẹnẹ), and Degema (also called Udekama or Udekaama).[3] These groups speak Delta Edoid languages. The Ogbia clan, Andoni people, as well as residents of Bukuma and Abuloma (Obulom) speak Cross River languages.[citation needed]

It was discovered in the 1980s that a nearly extinct Berbice Creole Dutch, spoken in Guyana, is partly based on Ijo lexicon and grammar. Its nearest relative seems to be Eastern Ijo, most likely Kalabari (Kouwenberg 1994).

Islam for Muslims / Re: Why Islam In Northern Nigeria Is Different From The South by benson81(m): 5:35pm On Aug 11, 2014
uken73: I can only think of 2 things.

1. Lack of sufficient Education in the North.
While working in Calabar few years back, there was a Muslim Corper from Kaduna who worked with us. He didn't seem to show signs of aggressiveness when his Muslim faith was challenged.

2. The northern people may have had a history of aggressiveness even before Islam came and it has been passed down the generations.
Saying so because it's more common to hear a northerner injuring someone over a very trivial issue, and sometimes this issue does not even have to do with the Qur'an. However, there are lots of peace loving ones especially among those who were not brought up in the north.

Just my opinion.
don't mind them dey are hipocrites.they only kill and destroy where they know they are in majority.do u think northern moslems are not in places like PH,warri,aba,owerri,onitsha,yenagoa etc.u want to tell me ppl don't do things that offend islam in their eyes?
