She is neither Michelle Obama nor Simone Gbagbo, she is Patience Jonathan, a woman who uses all her ability and power to support her husband no matter what. A woman who isn't moved by her own shortcomings in spoken English. A woman who is not intimidated by people who claim to be intellectuals because they speak 'big grammar'. A woman who uses what she has to support her husband through thick and thin.

if our Nigerian wives could support their husbands through thick and thin like Patience has been showing over the years, The average Nigerian man would feel like he can move mountains.

Like it or not she has warmed her way into the hearts of a lot of women who like her are not polished or lack western etiquette. She has given them the believe that if they support their man they too can achieve relative success.

She appeals to the this group of Nigerian's who constitute a larger demographic than Nigerian's online population all together.

She is an asset I wish APC had, it would have made for an interesting contest to see APC's version of Patience Jonathan.

You do know she is a laughing stock. A means of entertainment. You forget how people are making "chai and diaris God o" T shirts. And you are not embarrassed that she is the first lady? Thank God Apc does not have an "asset" like her. I neither support apc nor pdp.

14. Nigerians loves life to
the fullest
We are one special breed of humans
on planet earth. Even though we are
very hard-working yet, we do not
spare money when it comes to luxury
and the beautiful things of life. Before
you can say Jack, the latest gadget in
the world is already in Nigeria. We
love life and this is why our weekends
are filled with parties and excitement.

Ask a man from Equitoria Guinea and he'll tell you the same thing about his country.

12. Things are very cheap
and sometimes free in
Nigeria
If you are scared of parking space
tickets, over speeding fines and some
of those fines that cannot be neglected
in most countries, Nigeria can be a
haven for you. Despite the fact that a
lot of things are cheap, so many things
are virtually free. This does not mean
that we allow lawlessness in our
country because if you are ever
arrested, you may never commit
crime in your life again.

You have just described a lawless country.

opyzy:
11. We have the freedom
that people in most
countries only dream about
It is in Nigeria you can get a new job
regardless of where you come from or
gender. You can marry who you want
to, say anything in public or be who
you really want to become without
fear of getting persecution by the
government of the day. There is just
so much freedom to play around with.

Confirmed. You really need to be drug tested. Can you stand in front of your president and tell him exactly how you feel with no holds bared, and not be afraid that security agents won't come knocking on your door the next day? Nigerians are living in bondage and you call it freedom. What you have is a country where might is right, Jungle justice, and survival of the fittest. You are describing the limits of your own experience which is limited. You need to experience other countries my friend.

9. We have God at the
centre of our lives
Faith takes the centre of our everyday
lives as Nigerians. We believe that God
is at helm of everything we do. It
doesn’t matter what you really believe
in, you can worship your God how you
please without getting persecuted for
what you believe in.

True. Which is a plus and a minus for us. Plus, because we need faith. Minus, because there are a lot of mindless robots who are taken advantage of daily.

8. A Country of beauty
Nigeria have a lot of breath taking
destinations you can visit that
stretches from Lagos Bar Beach to
Obudu Cattle Ranch; destinations
where you can feel Mother Nature,
see rare species of plants and animals
and enjoy the beauty of tranquility and
tourism.

Bar beach, really? You need to travel more and see other places. Then you'll know Nigeria has nothing. There are no less than 20 castles, dating back a thousand years still standing in Germany, and in pristine condition. The original concept of disney was from a castle in Germany and it is still standing till today. And you are citing bar beach. Pleeeeaaassseee.

6. There is no place like
home
No matter how many years we must
have gotten accustomed to the
lifestyle of another country; there is no
home like Naija. Nothing has been able
to replace that homesick and longing
that comes when we stay away from
the country for a long time. The charm
and comfort we get when we are with
our loved ones cannot be bought with
material wealth.

If you ask a guy from Ghana, he'll say the same thing. Home is where you make it.

opyzy:
7. We have a sense of
oneness
Yah! If there is one thing that stands
Nigerians out anywhere in the world, it
is their sense of communal spirit. We
are quick to embrace other Nigerians
as brothers and sisters once we
realize that they come from Nigeria,
we are at home with them. We love
the family life and this has become
our trademark.

Really? Someone needs to drug test the OP.

2. We are gifted and
talented:
When it comes to talents and brains,
we are like number one in the world.
This is no exaggeration!! There is no
field in this world where we have not
made our marks, talk about the
prestigious Nobel Prize, sports, the
world of blogging and internet,
entertainment, politics, medicine,
engineering, etc. Just name any field
and we would tell the Nigerians who
are making waves there.

Every country has gifted individuals in their populace. "my pikin na im fine pass"

opyzy:
5. Nigerians are very
optimistic
Life can be cruel but this doesn’t have
anything to do with what we believe in.
We are very optimistic which is why
we are able to translate every
negative situation to something
positive. We see the good in every
situation we find ourselves.

Nigerians are optimistic which is why it is easy to take advantage of them. They are optimistic that things will get better but do nothing about the status quo to make things better.

opyzy:
3. Nigerians are happy
people:
matter if we are living on
some floating slums like Makoko in
Lagos or the government of the day is
not living up to our expectation; one
thing that hardship can never take
away from us is our happiness. In the
midst of fear, challenges, difficulties,
pains, frustrations and anger, we still
find one reason to be happy.

Nigerians are happy people because ignorance is bliss.

A lot of the younger NL's would have skipped through those pictures and not recognize the great Hubert Ogunde.

heywhytech1:
I just dont know why I dislike this woman, probably because of GEJ and her reckless entrances , I am not even sure, can someone help me out ?

You are not mistaken. You probably are one of the few saner beings in the populace.

loomer:
People just de insult this woman, she no get problem at all, enjoying life to the fullest

You have a problem if you cannot find issues with her being in the fore front of her husbands campaign. In a saner climate, her verbal affronts, undiplomatic utterances, and total disregard for the sensibilities of the populace would have guaranteed that her husband would not be re elected. But no, not in Nigeria. A country of sycophants. As long as the crumbs from the table keeps dropping, then all is well.

joyli:
That kind of body some guys will kill to get.:-) but I guest she had her waist trainer on while taking this pic..:-) sexy!

Wait till she hits her late 30's and early 40's and you'll see what's up?

The song that best fits Nigeria.

shikaan:
GEJ IS WORKING.

And you must be nuts.

AwesomelyMade:
so orderly, those were the sane days, no be these days wey you go see mad person behind the wheels, you begin to wonder who issued them driving license

what you see there is same as what you have today. The difference is, there no street hawkers, beggers, 1000 okada's, jay walkers, and police checkpoints. These all contribute to the mayhem.

echobee:
Serves him right

And you obviously don't see anything wrong with what they did to him. Nigerians are completely immune.

Mumu guy; you are supposed to get down on one knee. Naija for life.

If you sold this, just hold and be patient.

pinbar:
i think the bullish party has just started for GJ, it started with the pinbar in 1hr, next another pinbar formed in 4hr hours, and now daily has formed its own pinbar.... , i expect a pull back and a major bullish continuation......

Mehn.... they just released this hungry bulls o.

I deduce that you may be correct. A 1000 pip party, which for me is a 40000 Dollar windfall up and another 40000 down if it hits that first tp. If all goes well that is. Fingers crossed.

ozoigbondu:
Mama peace is finer than all of them put together.After my mama peace is stella obasanjo before turai yar adua then ajoke mohammed before the maryams.The rest are tied.

Most importantly GEJ till 2019

P.S Aisha buhari will never enter this list

You need glasses.

Brugo:
Since you refused to answer my question I will ask you one more. Can you honestly state that MOST northerners would do the bidding of their imams without a second thought?

with a profound yes.

Brugo:
What percentage of northerners are Muslims and what percentage of such Muslims are fundamentalists?

Assess your generalisation.

Off the top of my head, i have to admit i don't have that estimate. But, i ask you this; what percentage of the states in Nigeria, do you see or hear that groups of peoples go out murdering citizens en mass because a leader of a religious group to them to?

Brugo:
Then your logic is flawed.

What is flawed is living in denial.

Either Nigerians are color blind or s.tupid, or maybe both. If you'all do not know the difference between normal dark skin and flash from a camera combined with makeup, then you'all have issues. I suspect this is another topic by MODS to generate traffic as usual. Irrespective of how silly the topic is. NL is gradually turning into yahoo.
