Naija una need troops and foreign intervention. Una never pass that level yet. Why United Nations dey fold hands watch? This is genocide and not the first time its happening.

If the US can help Nigerians let them help. The american military will be too brutal on them so I suggest the US coast guards to restore decorum.
Bet e no concern me sha. Na Yankee I dey.
Their Oga in jos Yakubu Gowon also did same to our land . I still carry battle scars from that operation tiger claw that occurred in calabar on October 1967.

As much as I agree with you but have you seen countries that the US military intervened in their conflict? They go from bad to terrible in an instant

1) Tattoos have Spiritual implications

Spiritual ignorance is a big no no when deciding on my future spouse.
Few actions show me how spiritually ignorant you are when you go and permanently stamp yourself with a symbol or sygil you don't really know anything about (past what "someone" tells you).
I have seen some tattoos that I don't know what they mean, but my spirit inside me just feels appaled at the meaning behind it for some reason, even when my brain doesn't actually know what it means.

Also my grandma had tattoos and she raised my mom right, she's one of the sound spiritual person I know and my mom raised me right. It's the individual purpose in life not the ink

2) What do you tell your daughter?

Before deciding on who to marry, it is important to look ahead.
Marriage is not just about you and her. It's about your children as well.

I have a certain way I intend to raise my children.
Say now you decide to take things serious with your tattoo'd gf and you guys get married and are blessed with children...when those wild teenage years come, how do you tell your daughter not to get a tattoo? Children don't listen. They observe. If mom has inked her skin, you as parents have lost all right to tell your children not to.

Your daughter will come back home one day and TELL you that she will be getting a tattoo of her current boyfriend's name on her lower back and you will have to shut up and look, because there is not a damn thing you can morally do about it. You've lost that high ground.

I agree with you but what about the people whose culture request tattoos. Take Dwayne Johnson as an example, he's from Hawaii and his culture there's an age or position one attains in the society and has a tattoo traditionally inked on him or her. I wouldn't mind a Hawaiian girl with tattoos because it's their culture but a Nigerian girl with tattoos, I understand your reasons for that.

Thank you for making your opinion known. One or two occurrences such as the ones you alighted still are not enough to tag the whole nation as insane. Even the U.S you gave example with has recorded more violence and indiscriminate shootings than Mexico over the years yet nobody in his right frame of mind will tag the nation as being insane. How many times have Mexico been on the news for the wrong reasons when compared to Nigeria?

You are trying to be patriotic, i understand but sentiments aside, we all know that Nigeria is a sorry excuse of what a nation should look like. How many times have our security operatives been brought to book despite all the atrocities they have committed and are still committing? What is happening in Mexico can never happen here, we are too backward. Truth must be said no matter how difficult it is. Let me stop here, i have got headache

Sorry for the headache
I agree with you and I did not say they were insane. Frankly no nation on earth is sane or insane and Nigeria is not a yardstick for how a country should be, it should be a yardstick for what a nation should avoid. The government at least made an attempt but here in Nigeria we don't. People are killed daily in the US and Mexico but what you don't see is people or dead bodies lying in the streets like the gory sight in Plateau State. I agree with you we are backward,it hurt to admit but the truth is always hard to swallow

Temptee101:


A sane clime where nobody is above the law. But over here, the police go shoot protesters, still video am, dey play am for office dey laugh

Sane clime? No way. Don't you see the way Mexicans are running to the US border despite knowing the fact that they will be separated from their kids? Some time ago over 20 students were missing only for a secret mass grave to be discovered having hundreds of bodies. Mexico is ridden with violence. So don't call that place sane

Deltayankeeboi:
For Donald?? no hope. Under the circumstances we have found ourselves, anything just to send the terrorist president packing come 2019 is highly welcomed.

Personally for me, i think Donald Duke is building castles in the air.

I don't see him getting block votes from the North. I doubt if he has any stronghold there.

Be it as it may, I believe Atiku is currently the only candidate strong enough to challenge the terrorist president for votes in the North.

I am not supporting anybody yet but believe me Atiku is our best bet in sending the terrorist president packing.

They are both evil but between both of them, we have to choose the lesser evil "Atiku" for the benefit of all.

For me between Duke and Atiku I'll prefer Donald Duke. Atiku? Bro please no. If it's Atiku and no other candidate then let the dullard continue. Last last we'll carry guns or get out of this country

The Nigeria vs Argentina encounter at the Russia 2018 World Cup, which is set to hold later this evening, will not be the first time that the two teams are meeting at any International competition.

This is the eight meeting between Nigeria and Argentina, and the South Americans had won in all four competitive games, drew one and lost in two international friendlies.

Their first encounter at USA ’94 ended 2-1 in favour of the White and Sky Blues South Americans, while they played 0-0 at the Confederations Cup in Saudi Arabia in 1995.

At Korea/Japan 2002 World Cup, the Super Eagles went down 0-1, while their encounter at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa also went the way of the Argentines with 1-0 victory.

Eagles first victory over La Albiceleste came in 2011 in Abuja during an international friendly game, which ended 4-1. But the Argentines responded quickly with a 3-1 win in another international friendly duel at Dhaka Bangladesh.

During the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Argentina won 3-2 in their last group game, but Nigeria won the last international friendly match 4-2 against them.

However, there is tension in the Nigerian camp ahead of today’s battle at St. Petersburg and the coach Gernot Rohr has charged his players to give all their best at the game.

Nairaland has indeed gone to the dogs. 80% of those pictures are just nude photos, the post stated girls spotted at the world cup but all I'm seeing is ladies who did nude photo shoot. I've watched almost all the games and those girls are not in Russia, I've even come across some photos before

My name is Amaka afuzor, and i am a student of Federal university of technology minna. Mechanical engineering. 100 level


Before you accuse me of being dull, I had a 204 in JAMB.
I always wanted a first class, but
I decided to check my result yesterday only to see F parallel and some good grades out of 10 courses.
Pls am 22 and I need to pass so I can get a good job after graduation.
I know I didn't give my books much attention this semester.

I am confused because I will be asked to withdraw if I get a cgpa less than 2.0 on a scale of 5 after second semester and don't meet the 10-8-8 requirement which I am very far from.


CAN I GRADUATE WITH A FIRST CLASS STILL?
Tell me the honest truth, I can handle it.

Pls who knows how many percentage of final cgpa the first year performance takes In futminna

I had similar situation in the University but graduated with a 3.7 cgpa, what stopped me from getting a first class was my first year. Just know where you failed and make amends. School is not as difficult as one make it. I read only on Saturday in school and was far better than those that read every night

Katier00:


I was about going for my weekly shopping and something just came to my mind, is there any rule that state we must cook rice for launch on Sundays? 90% of households in Nigeria eat rice very Sunday. I just decided to cook yam and egg sauce tomorrow to see if something unusual will happen

My father used to tell me that while he was young eating rice was seen as a privilege so it was only prepared on Sunday, plenty rice small meat. Most elderly people I've met always tell me how they only ate rice Sunday so they only prepared it Sunday. It's nice but I don't follow that tradition. It's a beautiful thing though, just that Nigeria is poor at following tradition, it could be used to grow the rice market

Automative1 I watched this programme like 10 years ago. You just saw it?

sunnysunny69:
Happy for you brother, I pray it's gone forever and ever. I like the fact he chose to play for Nigeria even though he has little chance of playing for England. That is one opportunity the likes of Gabriel agbonlahor , Dele Ali etc missed. They play 5 or 10 international for England and are dumped thereafter. Look at lampard Gerrard etc, after football they have a future in management but the black ones have no future after retirement.

I agree with you but the smart ones get a punditry job and are paid more than some coaches

Decided to do a back flip into a pool but landed awkwardly, found myself drowning. If not of a friend don't know what would have happened. Guy man just left the pool and sat in a chair observing

MarieSucre:


The full parental leave is 7 months, with maternity leave being the first 3 months. How many of you Nigerian men will opt to take care of a baby who cries day and night(especially at night), clean baby sh*t, change pampers, carry the child to public places for fresh air i.e market, church/mosque, school play grounds etc for the next 4 months.

I did. I didn't comment to start a gender fight please. Don't generalize please

Dicki:
I doubt the genuineness of your assertion because the option for contract engagement looks more promising and it's something you needn't think twice before grabbing the opportunity with both hands.

What about scenarios that the state fails to pay. I've seen several cases like that. If it's federal or with one of these multinational corporations then there's no cause for alarm

This is how I cook my own egusi.

1. I steam meat and set aside.
2. Pour my ground egusi into a bowl. Add a little water and form the egusi into a paste.
3. Add little oil into a cooking pot, allow the oil to get warm a bit.
4. Pour the earlier prepared paste into the oil and fry.
5. Keep turning the egusi in the oil until a proper mixture is formed.
6. Pour the water from the meat and allow the whole mixture to boil for some minutes.
7. Add pepper, Maggi cube, salt, etc and allow to boil yet again.
8. Lastly. Pour in your vegetables and stir.

9. Allow the vegetables to simmer.

10. Enjoy your tastefully prepared egusi soup.

I prefer putting my Maggi cube and salt last. Egusi can be prepared in any method, the easiest soup to learn.

WWE said Wednesday that Leon White, better known to WWE audiences as Vader, died Monday night at the age of 63.

White retired from the NFL in the mid-1980s due to injury

He then transitioned to World Championship Wrestling. According to the WWE, he engaged in “memorable rivalries with the likes of Sting and Ron Simmons, becoming a dominant, three-time WCW World Champion in the process.”

In 1996, Vader joined WWE roster, “where he squared off against Superstars such as Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker.”

Superstars have been paying him tribute on social media pages.

Prevention is still the best. I can't imagine how much goes to her medical bills, how many families can afford that? Asides that, it is a life of constant pain.

Before you go too far in a relationship, know your genotype, end it before it becomes too difficult, love enough cannot overcome it.

I have seen and heard very loving couples get torn apart because of a sickle cell child.

I have seen a sickle cell patient abandoned at National hospital by his very wealthy parents.

Exactly, she doesn't look like she's not being properly taken care of. How many families have the money to treat a sickle cell patient for 94 years. Best thing is know one genotype and avoid heartbreak.

Meghan Markle just attended her first ever Royal Ascot Tuesday as a member of the British royal family, but did she already make a faux pas?

The annual five-day horse-racing event requires quite the strict dress code, including asking all ladies to cover their shoulders and wear hats and name tags. But on day one of the event, the Duchess of Sussex noticeably did not wear her pin, choosing to hold it in her hand instead. Prince Harry, who was by her side for most of the occasion, wore his purple-and-white pin on his lapel.

At Ascot everyone is given a badge, mainly to get them through security," royal expert Duncan Larcombe tells BAZAAR.com.

According to Town and Country, all royals, including Prince William and Kate Middleton, are expected to wear them, and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge followed tradition and wore theirs last year. However, Markle was not the only attendee this year to pass on wearing the moniker accessory.

Marlene Koenig, a royal historian and writer of the Royal Musings blog, tells BAZAAR.com that Duchess Camilla, Princess Anne, Princess Beatrice, and Princess Eugenie were also not wearing their pins at the 2018 Royal Ascot, and their choice is not going against royal protocol.

"Wearing pins has nothing to do with protocol," Koenig says. "Protocol is for official, diplomatic, state events, [including] where you sit, when you enter, etc."
"Perhaps [Meghan] did not want to ruin that nice Givenchy dress with a pin hole," Koenig adds.

The Duchess of Sussex wore a stunning off-white Givenchy dress with a black-and-white hat to match for a flawless monochromatic look.

The French designer is clearly one of Markle's favorites. She wore a Givenchy gown for the royal wedding and yet another Givenchy dress for her first solo engagement with the Queen last week.

No name tags ruined those outfits, either.

TheSuperNerd:
Ever heard of Acromegaly? This could be down to the lad being somewhat Acromegalic also because right from his early teens, he has been a big kid. His Growth hormone and other growth factors must have worked in some form of overdrive.

We have kids looking like this and yet are so young. Even some are at tall as 6ft 5inches before they are 18.

Look at this kid below from Brazil who recently joined what I assume to be your team (judging by your moniker), Real madrid. His name is Vinicius Jr and he is just 17. Would be 18 next month.

Renato Sanches and Donnaruma comes to mind

CriticMaestro:

When boko haram attacked a town called baga around the lake Chad region some years back they massacred more than 2000 people, the fulani herdsmen are killing on average of 20-30 people in a day, boko haram are still continuing with their attacks, just yesterday a bomb killed more than 30 people....

So I asked this question:
From which planet are you from, cuz clearly u don't belong here

Maybe he isn't referring to the herdsmen killing but he's right about one thing, in 2013 there was 73,505 injuries due to fire arms and 33,636 deaths due to fire arms.

Whizdorm001:
Zombie spotted.

In 2013 there was 73,505 injuries due to fire arms and 33,636 deaths due to fire arms. If you follow the news you'll find out that Donald Trump has angered Germans with his tweet accusing them of violence whereas the United States ranks highest in domestic violence and gun killings.

Uchihaitaci:


Get the F out of here with this rubbish

Nigeria is a dump

Herdsmen killing Nigerians anyhow and you are talking like someone who never went to school

How dare you compare Nigeria with even Ghana talkless of Egypt

Then you went across the Atlantic to America ? Are you drunk?

Read a book and get some information before opening your mouth and making a clown of yourself

He's right bro. I'm no Buhari supporter but the rate of gun violence is outrageous. You only hear about the few ones termed 'high profile killings ". In 2013 there was 73,505 injuries due to fire arms and 33,636 deaths due to fire arms. The grass isn't always greener on the other side. Every country has it's demon, ours is unnecessary and perpetuated by the government, theirs too by the government. Listen to Eminem song Nowhere Fast, they're powerless against the powers that be

This photo of Colombian fans and Mexican fans lifting a crippled Egyptian fan will melt your heart. It really is more than just a game, Incredible

Elder001:


The man that also brought a lot to the table which benefit is he going to have?

Everybody should make money and acquire their own properties abeg.

It's good that you highlighted that benefit part, that's why I won't make the mistake to marry according to the western culture. All your labor will just go to one woman, and some women just marry a successful man, get divorced and take his property. Both parties should know what they're bringing to the table, I can't marry a liability and God forbid if divorce comes she'll now want all my hardwork, brother the house will burn with us inside o.

Elder001:


No hard feelings man.

That you stayed with a man when he was broke doesn't mean you shouldn't make money and acquire your own properties.

This is the problem with many ladies. When the man was working hard to make money and acquire properties what was the woman doing? sitting down abi? and you say that same woman deserve which property?


As for your mum she is a very hardworking woman which every sane mind must complement. Her type is rare in a place like Nigeria.

None taken. Exactly, I was lucky to have a mom like mine. Women today are too lazy. My mom would foot the bill before my dad returned home, and my dad wasn't a bum. An average naija girl don't want to work or hustle. That's why a lot of women today want an already made man, so they can sit at home and do nothing. And even if they're working will still hoard their salary at the detriment of the home.

Elder001:


Free your heart from the hate you have for me and you'll realize I'm a good person.

What makes you to think I got married to a lady who doesn't have anything in her name already?

I've already clarified my stance on this page already;

I'm not totally against registry wedding .if at all it must be registry then make sure the woman has her own properties and she also has her own money.. anything other than that don't attempt registry wedding. 





Nobody goes into marriage with the hope or thoughts of divorce but this is the 21st century ,everything is possible. There are times in marriage when divorce becomes inevitable .Love doesn't keep a marriage rather it is communication and understanding that keeps a marriage .If you marry because of love, love will fade some day and all those good characters will also fade some day thus making the marriage unreconcileable. 





This is one of the reasons I don't support getting married to a broke woman or turning your wife into a full time housewife. 



A broke individual can never be trusted. It is the broke ones that will go any length to share your properties and make you emotionally devastated. 

Broke people can be greedy and very dangerous 



If the woman has her own properties and her own money there's no way court will share any properties because she can't prove that you wasted her life. 



She can only be awarded child support if you both have kids and she was also awarded custody of the kids. 







anything other than that I won't advice any man to do registry.

I apologize for my behavior on my thread and for misjudging you. I do not have any hatred towards you neither am I calling you out to troll you. I love interacting with people who argue intellectually and not attacking one personality or generalizing, that's what made me loose my cool on the other thread.
I agree with you on marrying a broke person. A lot of people, especially female see marriage as a poverty alleviation scheme. In a situation where a man and a woman had struggled together and in the future they separate it's only right to share whatever they have. Personally I'm repulsed by women with no idea or goals in life and are desperate for marriage, woe beside the unfortunate man. I take my stance based on personal experience. As a kid I saw my mom and dad make a fortune together through thick and thin only for the man to walk out later in life with everything, it got to court and despite the court orders he still did what he wanted to do. Now with almost zero, mother raised us and we're doing good. Now if my mom had the awareness we had today the matter would have worked in a way to benefit both parties. It's the right of every woman out there who struggled with her man to enjoy the benefits too. Even if she's just a house wife ,raising kids are damn hard, not to talk of raising kids with good moral standards or a woman that manages house chores with a 8-5 job and taking care of the kids . But if it's a man who has worked hard for his money and a gold digger comes later it will be foolish if he does a registry. The point is know the kind of woman you are getting married, don't use love to make foolish decision. A lady who can foot her bills and even if she's not working but brings a lot to the table deserves some kind of benefit after divorce.
