... Funny thing, anytime i see a response from the current government, i cnt only but wonder who advices her.

1stoff... WashingtonPost?.. really? i guess his main consign is about his image in the international community alone. Charity begins at home, dear mr president.

2ndly, smone is saying the media wld twist whatever he says, thats true, only becoz his own media team is stupid by not considering ramifications of all statements issued by them. It seems to me a times that the govt is on a self-distruct mission. You either give the pple some information, or any information wld be gotten, from blogs and what have you.

What prevents the govt from having a chief press secretary that constantly briefs the press... CONSTANTLY?

Finally, MR PRESIDENT, THE FIRST STEP AT IDENTIFYING SMTHING IS BY CHECKING WHAT IT "LOOKS LIKE" OR "SEEMS LIKE". That said, most often, "WHAT SEEMS" is never truly far from "WHAT IS".

If it seems like you are silent or do not care, i guess there is a high chance you dont.

What is every one saying sef.................... The only thing i can say is, it serves her right (yes.....and i am not batting a lid)

Now assuming the man insulted her first sef............ when did insulting pple back start solving problems (our typical Nigerian/Black mentality i suppose - one of the many reasons blacks are still mainly backward and underdeveloped ).

And for her to be ashamed of the insults they traded now, just means she kind-of was to blame or she also finds a need to pretend to her bf and his family (personally, if i ever open my mouth and insult anybody here, it just means, if i ever come f2f with the person, i cld proudly identify myself)

I honestly feel, its either OP is arrogant, rude and always poised to insult in real life, or she's just one of those pple that come online to portray whom they are not. Either way its bleeped-up.

By and large, people should learn to be more civil out here (online generally), disagree all you want, but never go about insulting people, and lastly, people need to be responsible for their online personality as well; I mean, your opinion (and insults) should be yours and you should be proud to air it in real life.

hyper.. what? Advice i go for brain transplant?

for the sake of fun, wondering who wld donate his or her own brain....... hahahahah.

Thanks for the advice tho, let me go check for some Albert einstein or steve jobs brain then.

Hello, house.............. 1stof, i need to ask if this happens to every one or just me.

Does anyone here sometimes sleep, but some how your brain function happen to continue with the task it was doing. but this time excruciatingly complicated and tedious. so, you wake up after say 5hrs and you dont feel rested at all?

Let me give an insight into mine.....

It used to happen to me before, but has never been tis bad. Left Nigeria for my msc sm mnths ago, my current location is GMT +8, thats like 7hrs ahead of Nigeria. After struggling with jet lag for like forever, i settled into work.

NOW,

with assignments, tests and all..... i kind of read and think about them often(after all; thats what i came for) but WHENEVER I GO TO SLEEP, MY BRAIN JUST REFUSES TO SHUT DOWN. IT CONTINUES WITH THE TASKS OR SOME RANDOM TASK AT OTHER TIMES.

i wake up and i dont feel refreshed at all. its beginning to bother me....... its been 2 mnths + now


P.S: i usually feel sleepy and tired when i go to bed... and i think i actually do sleep, at least i am not aware of my physical environment, just like i am dreaming but doing brain tasks in the dream.


LETS HEAR OPINIONS PLZ....

You know.... reading pples comment on this Oshomole issue all over the internet have made me come to one conclusion,

THAT WE AS NIGERIANS ARE NO WHERE NEAR DEVELOPMENT OR PROGRESS JUST YET.

That as long as we treat issues in this country with sentiments, things wld never work. "enya... she is a widow" "enya.. and they have kids fan" "is he the only one"

Granted, he might have been tad hash (which i condemn)..... but if u have been in a situation where ur genuine efforts are being thwarted, trust me you will get angry too. I mean, after all, he is a widower himself, but he doesn't capitalise on it.

i read all these and i say to myself, God help anyone that flaunts a law when i get elected. (AND, YES... I WILL GET ELECTED WHEN I AM READY). As much as i wld not have told the widow to "go and die" as God is my witness, i wld make sure she does time in jail. And same wld apply to anybody that disobeys the law of the land (from my friend to my foe)

I GET FED UP WITH NIGERIANS WANTING CHANGE AND YET WE ATTACH SENTIMENTS TO EVERYTHING. FROM THE SMALLEST OF THINGS LIKE BEING OUT AND HAWKING ON A SANITATION DAY, TO BEATING TRAFFIC, FROM LOITERING PLACES TO EMBEZZLEMENT.

(let me stop now, and go out and blow some angry air out.... it looks too promising a weekend to get unnecessarily worked up)

victorola: Thank God, I scored 91 from osun state, please who is also from osun state pls reply?

For real?..... Mehn, that's cool. Really nice. Let's all hope and pray for d best.

Op.... Ur effort is highly comendable. I think its just a matter of tym bfor d "e-revolution" catches up with everyone.

P.s: little consign tho, hope d guy wasn't refuelling sha, as per d 2nd pics. D gallon is bent like he was empting into his tank. If U̶̲̥̅̊ ve done transfers like that bfor.... U̶̲̥̅̊ will understand.
By-and-large tho, if d guy is stealing, he shld face d consequences.

Good effort sammy.
I still prefer my GN2. Slightly better battery, S-pen, slightly worst camera,OS(just a matter of time bfor GN2 gets updated). So bottom line, wld let tis one slide.

P.s: I dnt Ơ̴̴͡.̮Ơ̴̴͡ any mobile maker making any substancially different device frm what is available now, within d nxt, say 2-3yrs. Wee will just be seeing slight improvements I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ SW,build quality and may be cameras will start taking shots thru pples cloths.So, until, maybe when dat flexible screen thingy becomes real mainstream.Till then, ........

IMO..... Johnathan can knee infrnt or behind anyone he likes and wheneva.... BUT ''The president'' of a multi religious country like Nigeria knees befor no man in this country, , definitely not publicly. He needs to respect that office, and everything it represents. Pple (xtians,Muslims, Traditionalist. .everyone in tis country.) need to see him as smone they can depend on. Its akin to saying. The president is immune from prosecution and arrest, but Jonathan isnt.

I guess pple seeing nofin wrong with what he did, has little or no idea abt true leadership and d influence, power and responsibilities it come with. A leader automatically has an annointing which he or she shld neva take for granted.

saying this strictly from a personal point of view oh.......

i think infants are already dealing with enof in the new world they find themselves. with their limited brain functions at that age, adding a reflection of self/the environment to it, wld end up muddling things up for d infant. its like trying to teach calculus to a primary school kid. it might just end up turning the child into an slowpoke. the kid is seeing things being reflected and all.... smfin might just snap upstairs and .................

Also, the kid need to see d world as it is first, and not the reflection of it, which is usually inverted.

OK oooo. I dont agree with abuse against men.

But wait first. Some men act possessed. Some little insults here and there work magic to wake them up. And most of their friends like to put mouth where it does not concern them. Trying to take charge of someone else's home from outside. The woman suddenly finds herself fighting battles that she doesnt know who the enemy is. Men can be so sheepish sometimes that the woman has to take charge and put things in order. Otherwise, outsiders will make a mess of your life. Male friends need to know to stay out of couples business, because at the end of the day they will both fight you.

freecocoa: Its funny how most human beings are o.

A person said she'd return the favor if someone insults her.

You people just concluded she's an abusive person and start hurling insults at her, biko nu she wey talk say she go wait make person insult her first before she reciprocate and una wey just dey insult her for a comment, who is now the abusive one here?

Nna eh people never cease to amaze me o.

the first quote ... was her first comment (she was first to comment). "insult d man alittle, becoz he acts possessed. who thinks that way? just like saying..... "beat d woman alittle bcoz she insulted or talked back at u". In a sane world, pple shldnt "always" insult back bcoz they are insulted. like smone i used to knw wld say.... "the man and d woman shld neva "get mad" at the same tym"

[quote author=baby_123]Lol, and he talks about maturity! Pfft! Teacher, read book first before you try to teach something you are clueless about. You came out swinging, I swung back. Now you are trying to talk like a decent person. I have what I need and it has come to me. Do you?[/quote]do u have a short memory abi u just choose to be selectively forgetful? u made reference to my "village" remember? Thank goodness; " i try to talk like a decent person", which is smfin i cant say about you.

debrief08: What is wrong with some of you?
So Baby has a different oppinion when did that become a crime?
Shamefullly those of you asking for respect are here insulting her and dragging her parents into a discussion. Shame.
Respect is a 2 way thing. Why can't you disagree repsectably? Me, Dayo, Sisi and Revolt disagreed and yet no insults were exchanged.
Must she share your veiws? Must she believe whaat you believe?
Why drag her parents to a discussion that has nothing to do with them?
Shame.

i do agree with u that every one is entitled to his or her opinion and that pples parents and villages shld neva be involved in augments and even quarrels. But... a wrong stand/opinion, tho the person airing it is entitled to it, doesnt stop it from being wrong.

Nairaland is beginning to loose its sense of what is right. hw wld it not, when smone comes here to justify insulting ur spouse bcoz he "misbehaves or is possessed"? its akin to justifying a man beating d wife bcoz she insulted him, or justifying rape.... bcoz d girl is dressed indecently.

[quote author=baby_123]What concerns you with me or my post? You open your mouth to insult, I respond without insult. And you proceed to say something foo*lish. Like I will get what is coming to me. From who? You or your village[/quote]what consigns me with ur post?.... are u serious? this is a public forum FYI..... we write or comment bcoz we need/want pple to respond. And please indulge me and point to where i insulted u.

I ve always been of the opinion that when two pple are arguing or even quarreling for that mata ,d mature thing to do is to deal with d person directly and not include d persons parents or village who hv nofin to do with the issue at hand......

and as per getting what is coming to you..... i still stand by it. Pple with quarrelsome disposition as urs can and will only learn after "they learn"

[quote author=baby_123]Baba psychologist, I probably have more self esteem than the whole of your village. One thing I won't do is be with someone that cannot accept when they are wrong and be called out for what they do. Even if it containts insults. That area is already even covered. So keep your psychobabble for yourself and your gf/wife who may have issues after you do what you like. And she blinks, cries and runs to the whole village for solution.[/quote]and this consigns my entire village how? are u sure u are okay?... like seriously. i say smfin abt you, and u choose to ref to my entire village. pple like u wld always get what is coming to you.

boy oh boy...... who is baby_123
you have a penchant for insulting pple i see........ all ur statements on tis thread points to that.

anyways, i wish u luck, and hope u marry an extremely understanding man. pple like you wld always look for an opportunity to insult or talk back at pple, and wld hardly apologize when wrong. Sisi_Kill said smfin and u already used "wtf" and made ref to her using her brain. who does that? i ve come to realize tho, that women that have such insulting disposition hv sm esteem issues, same with men that easily use their fists


abuse in marriages usually start frm a little misunderstanding or miscommunication.

"he innocently makes a statement and u carelessly insults or talk back at him.... or she innocently does smfin wrong, and he carelessly barks at her"
it takes its root frm there and each person wld be looking for an opportunity to retaliate (human nature) ..... and one day, they both wake up and find themselves one each others throat.

First of all... I feel we being overtly unreasonable. That one of their planes crashed doesn't mean they should be grounded for life. Accidents do happen my friends. That u are involved in a car accident doesn't make u stop driving.... Does it? I can authoritatively say that, as unfortunately as what happened was, Dana doesn't hv d worst air crafts in the Nigeria airspace. For me... I will still fly them tho. (on a lighter note... And most people this scared of dying are supposed to be xtians, "running the heavenly race. We will all die, when we will. Either via Dana or keke napep or in our rooms for that matter.). Anyway, the Nigeria government regulatory agencies needs to be more alive to their responsibilities. May the souls of the Dana crash victims rest in peace. Amen

Yomieluv: What do you expect from a school located in the Northern part of Nigeria,being educated there is seen as a luxury,and a straight ticket to be the Governor of the state. So am not surprised.

Who d f**k are U̶̲̥̅̊ again? Being ignorant is onethin, showing it on a public forum like this I think is d height of stupidity. What makes U̶̲̥̅̊ any better than anyone I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ d north; educated or not(that is if kogi is north anyways). Education has nofin to do with enlightnment (U̶̲̥̅̊, being a case I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ point). So, neva look down on anybody or talk them down bcoz of their state of origin, nationality or colour.

if u ask me .. i think ultimately SLS plans on redenominating the Naira, say by one decimal place. the advantages wld be quite enormous.
a case where;
N5000 = N500
N1000 = N100
N500 = N50
N100 = N10
N50 = N5
N5,N10,N20 = 50K, N1 AND N2 coins Respectively.
(1 dollar = approx N15)
If managed well it cld be the advent of a stronger economy. as per advantages of redenomination



(1) To restore the value of the Naira (in the short-term) close to what it was in 1985 before the commencement of the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP) in 1986.
(2) To better anchor inflationary expectations
(3) To strengthen public confidence in the Naira
(4) To make for easier conversion to other currencies
(5) To reverse tendency for currency substitution
(6) To eliminate higher denomination notes with lower value.
(7) To reduce the cost of production, distribution and processing of currency.
( To promote the usage of coins and thus a more efficient pricing and payments system.
(9) To lay the foundation for the convertibility of the Naira as well as make it the ‘Reference currency’ in Africa.

I'm not going to insult d husband again (he already has enof)

Let ♏ε̲̣̣̣̥ give a different perspective. My Gf has these painful periods, one month I got so irritated that I asked her if "she was d only girl that has painful periods"( note worthy tho, she still hounds ♏ε̲̣̣̣̥ with that statement )

Anyways, I'm saying for U̶̲̥̅̊ ladies,note that not all men has d capacity to manage mood swings for all of 9mnths, especially if U̶̲̥̅̊ start hving "pains" and a need to be overtly pampered frm week one.

I knw sm men can take it to d extreme and bcome cruel (case I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ pt above), but OP and ladies generally, even I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ pregnancy, especially at d early tym, try and not be sad and moody all d tym, so he doesn't get worn out when U̶̲̥̅̊ need him d most.(Note that sm men cld start having 'late night meeting' too say once or twice I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ a week)bcoz no mata how much we try to read books and understand, we (most men) can NEVA fully grasp d pains of child birth/pregnancy

Op, I wish U̶̲̥̅̊ safe delivery. If U̶̲̥̅̊ can, try setting a very cheerful mood and then talk to him, I hope he understands and changes (pple are rarelly inertly cruel)

Thumbs up SEUN, gud wrk U̶̲̥̅̊ doing er!
My sugestns,

(1) Sm sections like Autos shld hv a filter by location, if pple r posting, they shld b able to choose a location, so its easier for prospective buyers to filter out.

(2) 'Mentions' twitter style hash tag, so, if I mention U̶̲̥̅̊ "#seun" U̶̲̥̅̊ get a sort of alert.
