Italiano1: Jona does not even have the slightest knowledge of what goes on at the NYSE not to talk of understanding the reason for ringing the bell- he will just subconsciously assume he is ringing the bell for the start of the consumption of copious amount of Ogogoro in his backward village

He is the president. He doesn't need to know jack. There are people in his cabinet who are more knowledgeable and would explain to him in fews minutes.

I know a female colleague that studied in the UK (the rural areas) but ended up with American accent. how come and when u ask her why do you speak like an American she would tell you it's British accent. The Babe sef can not even distinguish the accent she just dey blow the thing dey go. She sounds so stupid to me.

Afam4eva: Adaora Oleh is British brought up, so it's no faking.

I hear no British accent from her oh. I know how d brit sound. She doesn't speak American though. I guess it's Caribbean

The government has spent the money already. The report is an analysis to show what the govt bought.

Na wa oh and when guys can produce these things at home for a cheaper price.

Of course the story would be twisted. If you burn down a man's house, you have burnt down his mentality. Of course he would be mad.

Ibori may come out of prison still very rich. Intensive investigation should be carried out. What will hurt the most is that the moment he gains his freedom and set foot on Nigerian soil, he would be hailed and given a heroic welcome.

Obama is a good politician. See how the Americans are trying to mend bruised ego. Anyways my compliment to Segun Aganga, the guy knows his job.

Jonathan I would be watching you as you ring the NYSE closing bell and I hope you are not putting up the country for public listing in the NYSE exchange.

Nice one.

The authenticity of the publication is questionable. However, the facts presented is just too true to ignore. I may believe the story because Tinubu was involved in money laundering and was moving public funds out of the country. I guess he got this experience from the drug cartels.

I think the Govt should do the Margaret Thatcher style. To hell with the Unions.

[quote author=HUGE_S]Nahhh. I am in showbiz and I 'form' American accent wella. Now there is nothing like Nigerian accent in English. Do u suppose I use Yoruba accent to speak english or I shld use Igbo accent to speak the whiteman's language Nahh folks. It belongs to the Britons and the Americans so the list we can do is try to speak it like them. Also, I feel good when I speak with an American accent, u may think of it as inferiority complex, but actually my naturally intimidating personality heightened when I am using my fake accent among folks. They naturally think I am better than them. It started like a joke, but it's now a part of me. My boss is Ibo, but when he speaks Yoruba with the actual Yoruba accent it's so beautiful on him. Finally, imagine a none native speaking your language with d accent of their mother tongue, rmbr u use to laugh at such ppl. And now u think we accent folks are funny. Nahhh peeps, if u think we are fake, then d joke is on yo'all.[/quote]You don't speak with an American accent. You try to. And it doesn't make people feel you are better than them. Many just don't want to let you know how funny you sound or tell you to your face how your inferior complex issue is eating you deep.

I stopped listening to Rhythm 93.7 Lagos breakfast show because of Toke Makinwa (I hear she is pretty) but the accent is irritating. Even her co-presenter too (the guy). The accent is not American, it's not British, it's not jamaican. It's just something like a crying water fall and so irritating to the ear. What annoyed me the most, was when she narrated her childhood life using a popular street play often carried out by street kids in the 80's in Lagos and I was like WTF, so the girl even grow up for Lagos sef. I thought she grew up in one of the isolated islands of the world.

I think Benjamin Joseph tries to pronounce properly but he adds some nonsense accent too. Same thing as his co-presenter (adaora abi?) that accent is a disgusting one too.

These media houses should stop the nonsense. We shy away from who we are to be who will would never be.

visionsen: If he promised that fine and good thats still part of the development we are asking for。Ubah all the way。

To go and watch football for 4 years abi. No wahala. You can vote for him

If only we could appreciate ourselves and realise within us the potential of our mind. We would achieve great feats that other race would respect. Black people must feel cool within their own skin, appreciate themselves and grow within.

This is crazy

The FG wants to resolve the issue. ASUU doesn't want to compromise. Without no compromise there shall be no agreement. I believe ASUU is very selfish and self-centered. Nigerian students should raise their voice and order their lecturers to go back to the negotiating table. Honestly, the demand by ASUU is ridiculous.

Well I don't know about all this but I know trade began long time ago between Africans and Asians and early Europeans will cross the sahara deserts to get to down to Egypt and Mali to trade (this is on record). If Civilization started with Africans, it is left for we Africans to prove to the world, nobody will do that for us.

Thanks Rossike for challenging my consciousness this morning. I have a lot of studying to do.

This is front page stuff.

I might go and register with them oh. I just hope they are organised.

I don't believe this story. A colonel haba now. Those affected soldiers may be dismissed

Are they truly graduates or college dropouts? It beats my mind that a graduate would take arms and start holding people against their will. After the 4 years in university, the struggle, stress and big dreams; you have to end up being a kidnapper. I refuse to accept that.

I think the FG made a huge mistake advocating amnesty for boko haram. Now every criminal in the country is requesting for amnesty (what a shame). These scumbags are murderers, mentally unstable and greedy. They only belong in two places - Burial ground or prison.

What is the govt doing about this menace? I thought this telco registration would be able to curb issues like this? These kidnapping syndicates must be brought to their knees. It is also a shame that Edo state govt cannot arrest the situation. It seems this syndicates target security porous states and start victimizing the residents.

This is too bad. It makes the state uncomfortable to reside. No night life anymore. He needs to do something about it.

odagu1863: Genesis 5:4
New King James Version (NKJV)
4 After he begot Seth, the days of Adam were eight hundred years; and he had sons and daughters.

Brother u clinched this.. this is a perfect answer to this puzzle.. no more no less

Do you really believe a man can spend 800 years on this earth. Haba na which kind nonsense be this 1

Billyonaire: The entire Bible Stories about creation and origin of man is WRONG. Who ever is interested in proves, scientific and physical that ported from mars can go to my profile and play the video on my thread named "spirit science".

True word. Scientist has been screaming to these Christians that the world has been existing since billion years ago and people are still trying to relate man's creation from a book over 4000 years ago.

I keep telling people that the Bible is a history book (best seller though) about the creation, struggles and end time of the Israelis and the jewish community. The bible cannot explain why an Arab man evolves to become a Blackman. And if this naughty MOG try to twist things up. I would be soooo

Goshen360: They were not only four people on earth then, Adam and Eve had MANY other children (males n females) aside Cain n Abel not recorded their names. Try read genesis from chapter 2 forward. I can't do much typing now cos I'm typing from my phone.

Shvt d f/u/c/k up u confusionist. I have read Genesis over and over and I have noticed this chapter brought up by the poster. This has sprung my question for higher knowledge. Why are you here trying to confuse people bending the obvious truth to suit your belief.

Me I know for sure that mosquitoes love fair babes. Because all my girl friends are very fair and when they are with me, mosquitoes no dey remember me again. Na dem they dey rush go meet. If I wan stay with black babe, I must get insecticide, else I go hear am for night.

I like this new Pope, he seems to want to say the truth. I hope he blows it all out in the open and let people know.

I must really salute the courage and patience of the woman. We do not know her motives but it is very courageous to embark on this life journey. I wish them all the marital bliss this world would offer.

This goes on to show that whatever a man wants he shall surely get.

The Op took it to the extreme but he has a point. Many ladies are quickly joining the runz train. They expect financial gains for dating them and even open up to you. The number is increasing gradually. I don't know if there is anything that can been done about it.
