And we wait anxiously
the sun as usual never our friend
self pride our long lasting problem
one goal is what we seek
surely we are all kings in our kingdom
four stages we must pass through
hearts will always be broken
some will go happier than they came
why do we seek what we seek?
it is always greener on the other side so they made us to believe
we slept when they laid foundation
now we want to seek shelter there
what we get is not what we deserve
but it should have been a better scenario
still our elder brothers will not wake up as the sun still shine
so hope is still far from reality
and we leave our problems unattended to
believing there is always light at the end of the tunnel
BUT THE TUNNEL IS OLDER THAN YOU AND I


GOD save Nigeria

Keneking:
I think the beneficiaries of the first four years of the new Government should be:

1. Borno
2. Adamawa
3. Yobe
4. Kano
5. Katsina
6. Kaduna
7. Lagos
8. Oyo
9. Ogun
10. Osun
11. Kogi
and the others that gave the magic numbers.

The South South and South East can wait after the first four years. If they behave well, then they can be considered in the last four years grin
And it's statements like this that will return the militants to the Creek again. I pity ur lack of insight in the afairs of ur nation.

GEJ: I underestimate Boko haram.

PDP: GMB is the sponsored of boko haram. but no proof.
Muslim groups: Boko haram is non Islamic
Nigeria Army: we fail to crush away boko haram in 6 years but now will do that in 6 weeks.
NOTE: Boko haram kill more than 15,000 Nigerians and displayed more than 2,000,000. 3 times more than the population of Bayelsa.
My take on: if boko haram are killing Bayelsans will GEJ still underestimate them?
28march is the day
vote wisely
before Nigeria will turn to boko haram republic.
GMB may not be the best, but far better than GEJ.
You are a dunce for saying Bayelsa population is 3 times smaller than 2,000 000. Your nothern elders winning and dining with Bh. Why not call them to stop the menace? Malu like you.
Travel2 Nigerians, 1 Israeli Smuggle $9.3m To South Africa In Private Jet by CaptainPhilip(op): 8:03am On Sep 16, 2014
South African police are investigating two Nigerians and an Israeli citizen who tried to bring $9.3m in cash into the country illegally, a spokesman said on Monday.

There were suspicions that the money could be meant for arms. The Nigerians, coming from Abuja, were not identified, according to a report by Reuters.



The plane, a Bombardier Challenger 600, had a Nigerian flight crew on board. It was piloted by Captain Tunde Ojongbede, according to City Press.

Adrian Lackay, spokesperson for the SA Revenue Service, confirmed that customs officers became suspicious when the passengers’ luggage was unloaded and put through the scanners just after 7pm. The officers then investigated and found three suitcases full of cash.

The passengers apparently told officials they were acting on behalf of the Nigerian intelligence service.

They provided documentation confirming they had come to South Africa to buy weapons. It is not clear whether the Israeli passenger was an intelligence operative or an arms dealer.

The National Conventional Arms Control Committee, which has to approve the import and export of any weapons as well as issue permits for such transactions, was not aware of any applications in this case.

The South African Revenue Service seized the funds at Lanseria airport, northwest of Johannesburg, on Sept. 5, 2014. The funds are being held at the central bank as police investigate, SARS spokeswoman Marika Muller said.

“The passengers’ luggage was searched after Customs officials detected irregularities. The money was detained as it was undisclosed/undeclared and above the prescribed legal limit,” Muller said in a statement.

Nairaland Generalguys check this out. Digital Homes Of The Future By Panasonic. by CaptainPhilip(op):
Prettify yourself in Panasonic's augmented reality mirror (Wired UK) - http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2014-09/05/panasonic-augmented-reality-mirror

The majority of the IFA tech show in Berlin is focussed
on the here and now and what devices and products you'll be spending your money on today. Panasonic, however, is asking visitors to cast their mind into the future and has given them a vision of how their homes may end up looking.

The "home of the future" installations are on some level a slightly tired concept, with manufacturers often using them as an opportunity to get a bit sci-fi in the name of looking progressive. But that doesn't mean they're not fun to walk around -- so I did, and this time it was Panasonic's turn.

That vision Panasonic has for the future home starts in the kitchen, where all cooking will be controlled from a tablet and we will have cool trays like mini fridges for keeping left-out food fresh.


Katie Collins
Most impressive though is the hob that will (if Panasonic's correct) stir your sauces, soups and stews for you to stop them sticking to the pan. Using magnets built into the hob, the spoon stirring your concoctions will be pulled around so that you can get on with preparing another part of your dish.

Or you could take the opportunity to a have a little rest in the lounge, where you can gaze into the flames of your fake fire of your TV that rises out of the sideboard.


Katie Collins
A giant TV pokes out of the sideboard constantly, showing about a fifth of the screen. The whole thing is motion-controlled, which means you can also interact with and feed the fake fish in your aquarium, or swipe through your album collection to choose what music to play. When the TV emerges in its entirety, it provides a comprehensive overview of your connected home, letting you know which of your devices are on charge and how much juice they currently have, as well as giving you access to photo albums and delivering messages via an animated carrier parrot.


Katie Collins
STYLE ME PRETTY

"Mirror mirror on the wall, make me the fairest of them all," you will say; and thus your mirror will obey.


Katie Collins
Panasonic's augmented reality mirror is possibly one of the most fun pieces of tech we've seen at the whole show. Using camera-based face-tracking software, the mirror will identify you, assess you and project a vision of you onto the display with various recommendations as to how you should do your makeup. It will save your favourite looks, identify spots and wrinkle and show you how each cosmetic arrangement will appear in different lighting conditions. I can't see any problem with a mirror that automatically points out your apparent "flaws".

The mirror is designed primarily for commercial use -- so it will soon be in the kind of shops that sell cosmetics. But there's nothing to say that there won't be a consumer version in the future, so that people can get help with makeup and perhaps even skin complaints, at home.


Katie Collins
For example, apparently I (above) need more red lipstick. And just to think -- all this time I never knew!

CultureWhat Does The Word ''NAIJA'' Mean To You? by CaptainPhilip(op): 9:26am On Aug 29, 2014
The word Naija aptly captures the variety of emotions I feel for my country.
We Nigerians are confident people - proud of our culture and identity, industrious, hard-working, ingenious and great survivors.

The word was coined by the country's youth as a way of distancing themselves from the old guard”
Let's face it, we need to be resilient - Nigeria can be extremely frustrating, annoying and inefficient.
But an optimistic outlook on life makes it a place where anything and everything is possible.
No wonder a survey once found that Nigerians are the happiest people in the world - we have a great capacity for laughing at ourselves.
Whether things are going well or whether it seems the world is about to come to an end, "Naija!" -also written 9ja - expresses it all.
It is about the food, the flamboyant dressing, the mannerisms, the boisterous - some say loud - interaction among complete strangers who on meeting immediately feel bonded by their "Naija-ness".
Like your family, you love them and you hate them at the same time.
You love them so much you would die for them, and yet you get so exasperated at the way they drive you up the wall.
And for the young, the word has entered their slang - spreading rapidly through social networking sites and through music.
'A hook and a jab'
The word was coined by the country's youth as a way of distancing themselves from the old guard who they blame for Nigeria's woes," he says.
Nigeria has a bad image abroad but the youth want the world to know that change is happening from inside the country."
And Naija is a word we Nigerians guard jealously.
We are most particular about its pronunciation.
It must be punchy - both syllables should be emphasised but with a hook for the "Nai" and jab for the "ja".
Then you know you are in with the crowd. You are accepted. You are trusted.

what does the word mean to you nairalanders??

St. Louis Police have shot dead another man, a short distance from Ferguson, Missouri, the scene of protests over the killing of teenager Mike Brown
By KUNAL DUTTA
Wednesday 20 August 2014
The race-relations crisis engulfing America in the aftermath of the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown in Missouri intensified on Tuesday after police confirmed the shooting of a second African-American man from St Louis.
The unnamed suspect, identified only as a 23-year-old, was approached by officers after reports of a store robbery and a “man with a knife acting erratically,” St Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson said.
“As officers arrived, the suspect turned towards the officers and started to walk towards them, clutching his waistband. He then pulled out a knife in what we describe as an overhand grip, and told the officers: 'Shoot me now, kill me now'.”
Police said the ignored verbal commands to drop the knife and continued to approach the officers, coming “within three to four feet” before two policemen opened fire. The suspect was pronounced dead at the scene while the officers, whose identity has been withheld, have been suspended pending an investigation. Details of the incident were still emerging on Tuesday but it will invariably inflame tensions, coming 11 days after the police shooting of Michael Brown which has sparked days of violent protests in the town of Ferguson, prompting a heavy police crackdown.
