joyceok:
Let us report this nefarious officers with videos and pictures

correct way of exposing them

charix:
Now this thing is getting annoying. I see it posted here every other day.

Truth cannot be suppressed, that is why similar topics are everywhere and besides our youths are being lead astray with all these talent shows

Daintilicious:
Is this all you got?

add yours please or start a fresh topic

UjSizzle:
I know that. How many people do?
I'm just saying, I know what it's like having the world at your feet because people think you're beautiful. It's easy to think it will always be that way, that it will never change.
If people stopped celebrating beauty, or making women think that's all that really matters, then maybe we'll stop having people like the OP complain about the same old thing all the time.
Don't teach someone to live a specific lifestyle and then punish them when they act it out.

How many of your fellow young girls will you dissuade from dancing half naked in musical videos??

Dear IGP,

Please stop your officers attached to Idimu Police station from Illegal check points the put up from 5am to 8am daily along the Idimu-Isheri-Egbdeda road.

These notorious officers are fond of stopping private cars especially those hurrying to work to beat the heavy traffic.

They pronounce all manner of charges to innocent road users just to extort money from them.

This notorious activity have been going on unchecked for months and nobody has cautioned them.

Please save the users of this road from this bad eggs in the Reformed Nigerian Police Force.

Long Live IGP

Long Live NPF

Long Live Nigeria

thank you all for your positive comments, i hope the moderators take this to the front page as most times it is gossips about celebrities that make front page

All that Beautiful face and nice curves wouldn't stand da test of time for too long.. . It was given to you when you where or still in ya youthful age to help you make the right choices and offer you the best chance and also to help you secure a very good relationship and lead a happy life.. .

Yet you paint the beautiful face as you like to get some quickie.. . a night stand really?!.. .

Yet you are insulting and easily irritated by men coz you see your self as a beauty above all.. .

Yet you give no regard to the elderly ones.. .

This continued for a very long period of time.. .and you enjoyed every show of it.. . You don't give a damn thing about anybody.. . I mean you've got da looks/curve so why do you need to be respectful and gentle with anyone when you ought to be worshiped.. .

For 6 years you ruled your street,,,got all the attention you wanted.. .guys flocked around you like ants do to sugar.. . You kept hopping from a Limousine to a different color of Crv Honda rides.. .runs girl huh?! Yeah.. . You run the show.. . It was your time and everywhere you go men who always know how to appreciate everything and anything at all always appreciate ya pretty face.. .

They wanted you by their sides at all time.. . Before demanding for cash your account would have been stocked.. . And you just raise your head to the heavens and you beat ya chest "I"m the best of my kind and the most beautiful" Sure thing.. . But let's skip all this to NOW.. . Today.. .this very moment.. .

Now you are getting old little by little.. . Ya younger ones and people around you prefer calling you Aunty.. . Some children around the block even call you "Mummy" and you shout and scream.. ."Shut up who is your mummy am not ya mummy call me "Styhl.. . Lolz

When you had those curves and the beauty could still be seen from kilometers away before one gets to you.. .you didn't take heed.. . Ya priorities where not right.. . You chased after the moment with little or no plan for the future.. . Now to even see that you are a lady one will really need to be so close to you.. . Those ivory twin towers on your chest have been demolished by Osama Bin Laden.. .

Da implication:

You've grown past all those fun life you lived. When you were younger.. .suddenly you discovered that your ugly friend who guys don't hit on back then is getting married soon.. . All thru the time when you where a package and was been packaged she was just looking for One guy in da whole crowd.. .

Its hard for you to settle down now.. . Its not ya thing sitting and answering yes/no to just one particular guy.. . How do you go into marriage.. . And who is even gonna marry your type.. . Back then when you were freaking HOT and burned everything on your way.. . The world was watching or you don't know guys will be watching.. .

Who wants his brother to be married to a bitch?! Well even if its a repented bitch.. . Someone will just be like "Hey bros Dee.. . is that ya girl.. . Jeez I knew her way back in school she was the cheerful giver who shared her candy to everyone" I didn't have the opportunity to have tasted it too but some of my friends have pictures.. . Can you imagine that?!

The past you taught have been carefully buried is now starring its ugly head at you.. . I know what you will say.. . Someone who will love me for me for who I was and who I am will always be there and that's who I'll get married to eventually.. .True but how long will you wait before that person can locate you.. .ya time is ticking pretty fast.. .

Since it was your thing like ya logo.. . All what men do is just to have a two weeks affair at most now.. . They find it hard to trust ya no one wants to settle down with ya.. .

What a waste you've misused ya God given gifts the Pretty face/Sexy body and sweet voice that could have been used to secure a responsible man a father to your unborn kids.. .a home a future for you.. .

Instead of putting ya talents into usury you buried it in Trips/Flexcn/Fun/Parties/Clubbing.. . Probably you might still be lucky and get someone outer all this.. .Most cases with this kind of a life since Karma serves you what you order for .. .a player marries a player.. . A bitch can only find a womanizer.. . Its a perfect match lolz.. .

You don't expect to be a party rider and then eventually end up with a pastor at the altar.. .where the hell did you guys meet! Lolz.. . To whom brain is given sense is seriously expected to be inbuilt.. .

Guys let's not eat all the life and catch all the fun Now.. .what will be left for tomorrow?! For those into packaging beware after the fine face is gone and you end up singly.. .you wouldn't even be called a grany coz you never married and at 90 its still gonna be "Aunty.. . Lolz.. .

Let's live in TODAY with the memory that their is a tomorrow and that what we do today will stand positively or negatively against us tomorrow.. . You want to a better future?! The foundations starts from NOW. . .

Most girls are single why the boys keep on bragging that they are in a relationship.. .so it left me really devastated and prompted me to ask.. .and let's be sincere.. .that all you'll say/pick will be nothing but the truth so help you God! Today na sunday abegi make
una hang da lies for one side o.. .Lolz

What's yours??!

Why are nairalanders so hung up on accents?

Is this an inferiority complex?

Or some kind of fixation?

Imagine someone listing all their family members who "have lived abroad for 20 years and have no abroad accent". This is the height of joblessness, have you no life.

my reply to the bolded....If you were jobful and if you had a life you would not be posting on nairaland by 7am....

tdayof:
interesting

what is interesting

Creamish:
Ur opinion.

Must we copy everything from UK,USA, etc

Atigba:
So are you saying you are not going to die?

To be carnally minded like Niki Minaj and all those supporting her immoral dressing and acts is death but to be spiritually minded is life....Which do you want to choose

Creamish:
Couldn't have said it better. I appreciate the OP's concern tho but its a matter of choice. I don't see anything wrong with it..as long as the message is passed and understood.

Faking a foreign accent means being a COPYCAT while speaking with your Natural Nigerian accent( wether, Igbo,Yoruba, Hausa, Efik, Ibibio, Ijaw, Nupe etc) means you are ORIGINAL

nobilis:
OP, Thanks for giving us your life And family history. You should have also mentioned when you naturalized as an American or a British citizen.

Back to the topic.
What's all the fuss about accent?
There is No hard And fast rule anywhere that a person must speak a language in a certain way because he is from a particular country . People can decide to pick up new accents or drop the old ones they acquired in the past. People can also to learn new accents And be using them interchangeably with the previous ones they acquired.
As for me, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. As long you are communicating with your audience, you're covered. After all, a person's nationality must not be known through his accent.

And (I stand to be corrected), I don't think there is anything like Nigerian accent because the way an Hausa man speaks English is so different from the way an Igbo or Yoruba man speaks it. Let alone other ethnic groups.

And for those mentioning culture And pride about culture, I wonder when English language became part of your culture. So what has a "Nigerian accent" got to do with culture? Do tell.

the bolded means being a COPYCAT while speaking with your Natural Nigerian accent( wether, Igbo,Yoruba, Hausa, Efik, Ibibio, Ijaw, Nupe etc) means you are ORIGINAL

The notion of a miraculous genius being born smarter and more capable than the rest of us mere mortals charms our curiosity. Robert Greene, author of the popular The 48 Laws of Power (Penguin, 2000), would disagree. The fascination we have in prodigies, he says, is "bogus. It's completely bogus." Exceptional talent is about hard work, he says.

Greene studied the lives of exceptionally successful people for his latest book, Mastery (Viking/Penguin, 2012). He says that there is no such thing as being born into superior success. Rather, those politicians, entrepreneurs, scientists, athletes and artists who rise above the rest in their field, achieving what he calls a "high-level intuitive feel" for their specialty, have an unyielding focus and work ethic.

"It's not a question of some natural talent or brilliance that you have, it's that you have reached that level of experience or practice," Greene told Entrepreneur.com. "We have to get rid of that old-fashioned notion of genius and creativity." He holds himself to the standard he preaches, having put in more 20,000 hours researching and writing his last five books.

In Mastery, Greene examines the cultural poster-children for natural-born genius: Mozart and Einstein. For example, by the time he was 9 years old, Mozart had already put in 10,000 to 20,000 hours of work, equaling the efforts of an average person in his or her 20s, says Greene. Einstein attributed his own success to persistence, he says.

Greene developed a near cult-following for his methodical and -- some say -- Machiavellian breakdown of power and the people who wield it in The 48 Laws of Power. Part of what makes Greene popular is that he studies powerful people and then breaks down their process such that others can emulate it. Here are recommendations from Greene for entrepreneurs eager to be the next Steve Jobs.



1. Chose a topic to focus on that you are deeply in love with.
"Masters and highly successful people are emotionally and personally engaged in their work" on a level beyond intellectual curiosity, Greene says. It's the personal commitment to a topic, problem or skill that is ultimately necessary for motivating and maintaining the long hours and fervent curiosity required to rise to the level of "mastery" in a field. "Otherwise you are never going to have the energy, the patience, the persistence, the ability to put up with the criticism, you will give up too easily, you won't push through all the crap the world is going to throw at you."



2. Skip all the extra school. Learn by doing.
According to Greene, learning entrepreneurship in school is inane. "Being an entrepreneur is making something, it's like Legos," Greene says and the best way to become an entrepreneur is to try building businesses.

Henry Ford's first two automobile companies failed miserably, notes Greene. "You want to actually psychologically desire failure because it is how you are going to learn." If you aren't going to start your own business, at least work in as small a company as possible to learn as many skills as possible. Avoid large corporations and business school, Greene says. As an entrepreneur, "you are going to hire the people that have the MBAs. They are going to bring in that nuts-and-bolts knowledge."



3. Don't focus on making money in your 20s.
"Tune out the idea of making your first million. It's about learning. You are there to accumulate as much experience building a business and you want to build several, if possible," says Greene. In the first five to 10 years after college, pursue experience over money. You will learn more than you could earn in those years.

4. When you have some experience, select a mentor.
When selecting a mentor, look for somebody who is already doing what you see yourself doing in five to 10 years, says Greene. If you are going to try to approach a master to be your mentor, wait to do so until you have already started amassing a body of work.

A healthy mentorship relationship is like that between a parent and a child, says Greene. A good mentor should be older than you and at a point in his or her career that he or she is wants to give back. Personality is important, too. "You want somebody who matches your spirit. If you are a very rebellious type, you don't want a stuffy conservative type mentor," says Greene.



5. Be flexible and creative.
For the book, Greene interviewed Paul Graham, the computer programmer entrepreneur who started Viaweb, a company acquired by Yahoo in 1998 to become the Yahoo Store, and a partner of Y Combinator, an accelerator for startup entrepreneurs. In the highly competitive interview process for Y Combinator, Graham "can tell after one minute if he has the next Zuckerberg or this guy is useless, and it is because they are open-minded, they're flexible and they love, they are excited, they have a childlike interest," says Greene. Building a company will inevitably confront you with unexpected challenges, and your ability to adjust your path to deal with those surprises is critical.

Do you believe in the idea of a natural-born genius or do you think mastery is available to anyone who puts in the time and effort?

This is reportedly based on an actual experiment conducted in the U.K.)
Put eight monkeys in a room. In the middle of the room is a ladder, leading to a bunch of bananas hanging from a hook on the ceiling.
Each time a monkey tries to climb the ladder, all the monkeys are sprayed with ice water, which makes them miserable.
Soon enough, whenever a monkey attempts
to climb the ladder, all of the other monkeys, not wanting to be sprayed, set upon him and beat him up. Soon, none of the eight monkeys ever attempts to climb the ladder.
One of the original monkeys is then removed, and a new monkey is put in the room. Seeing the bananas and the ladder, he wonders why none of the other monkeys are doing the obvious. But undaunted, he immediately begins to climb the ladder.
All the other monkeys fall upon him and beat him silly. He has no idea why. However, he no longer attempts to climb the ladder.
A second original monkey is removed and
replaced. The newcomer again attempts to climb the ladder, but all the other monkeys hammer the crap out of him.
This includes the previous new monkey, who, grateful that he’s not on the receiving end this time, participates in the beating because all the other monkeys are doing it.
However, he has no idea why he’s attacking the new monkey. One by one, all the original monkeys are replaced.
Eight new monkeys are now in the room.
None of them have ever been sprayed by ice water. None of them attempt to climb the ladder. All of them will enthusiastically beat up any new monkey who tries, without having any idea why.
And that is how traditions, religions and systems get established and followed.
Think twice before following a tradition, religion or system blindly .. it would make more sense if u get your own understanding to it.
LIBERATE YOUR MIND.
