omajali2003: What is wrong in calling a white ' a white dude'? I can as well call sep Blatter a white dude and call Isah Hayatu a 'black dude' It is either you are a black dude or a white dude. Is the man not a white dude? Secondly, Keshi asked him to go to his country, Belgium. Is there any thing wrong with advising a white dude to go to his country? Perhaps his kids are missing him and instead of wating away in Malawi. Thirdly, Keshi called him crazy. Is it not crazy to tell Fifa to move our own match to a neutral ground? Is he suggesting that the match be moved to syria or Egypt? Is it not crazy to say our match should be moved from the land of Obudu ranch, the land of Tinapa, and the neatest land in Nigeria - Calabar! It's crazy. Keshi, the black dude, is right about what he said to the white dude. Fifa will be crazy to sanction this our black dude. I rest my case

You're not being rational. So cos he's a white dude he should get the hell out of Africa to his country. Sounds like Idi Amin logic.

Yeah, that Keshi with his annoyingly fake accent....
That was a racist slur, no doubt.

youngalex: This guy is a real disgrace to Unizik,i graduated close to a decade now from there ,to the best of my knowledge the institution is noted for sound education and character building....what a huge disappointment see where the quest for quick moni has landed him

Well, that guy went for that operation on his own capacity. Wasn't representing his school. No need to defend your Alma mater cos all communities got their bad eggs.

ejiykzazi2007: Hmmmmmmmmm. (whispering)... they dont just know many Nigerian wives dont work cos of d rate of unemployment...

You've said it all

buffenuff: Good thinking, if the supply of generators decreases, the supply of electricity should increase according to the law of ..mm

Well, the #250 surcharge on a household Gen cannot really deter one from buying... The 100kva sets cost millions so 25k is chicken feed.
It'll only generate revenue for the commission.

Personally I know men and women are equal and all that... But recently the utterances of two gals I respect much left me pondering if it's,the women themselves doing the discrimination.
One is married with a baby girl. She said she wanted a boy and she hopes she doesn't give birth to another girl, stating that "gals wahala too much"...

The other is single . We were discussing bout women empowerment and stuff. To my surprise she said those govt agencies and NGO's are on their own, that "wetin concern woman".. That she can't buy a phone or car with her money, Her man must get that for her....

Na there I hang boot.

crystalballs: Not resigning now and start up your own business.

Resigning from a good job may end up regrettable as well. No 100% guarantee in biz

The same Oshiomole that promised to pay us 25k each during our NYSC POP last June? And has conveniently "forgotten" the promise given to over a THOUSAND youths??
I won't judge him based on that though.

Sam xiu lee: tinubu built the power plant,the problem is the constitution,it place distribution of electricity for commercial purpose in the exclusive list,which means if you want to sell power on commercial level you have to put it on national grid.btw the power plant is a nice thing,healthy rivalry is what we want to speed up development in the country.

Starting from January 2012, which is
few weeks away, state governments in
Nigeria would formally have the rights
to generate and distribute electricity
power in their domain.
This would be made possible by the
new set of regulations in the works by
the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory
Commission (NERC) guiding
Independent Electricity Distribution
Network Operators and Embedded
Power Generators.
Embedded Generation is when a
power plant is built in a particular
locality and not connected to the
national grid for transmission. The
generated capacity is connected
directly to the distribution network.

Obiagelli: Good news, but will it be connected to the national grid, and how many megawatts is the plant generating?

It's 141MW for aba metropolis and environs only.

Good job

If you're an Android user and still using Yahoo mail,... You're on a loooooooong thing.

Tworld84: Ah!.....sowi, i don't kw ni, can u help me out. Help ur broda out, ao is it total to 36?

Total is 56 I guess.

Hmm.. Got 50%.. Dunno if it's okay.

abdulkayus: I call it early marriage nt child marriage. Who set d age of marriage shld be 18? Hw many gals are gettin pregnant and becomin mother b4 d age of 18? In some develop countries, d age of marriage is even less than 18. Wat am sayin is dat marriage age shld nt be peg at 18 bt at wen d gal mature to be able to handle pregnancy. And dat is wat Yerima is sayin. Dis early marriage has been happenin for long time in d north, and i havent heard any noise den. In d south esp d south west, we have high rate of teenage pregnancy and teenage mother out of wedlock or even droppin out of school. Nobody make noise abt dat one. VVF is nt an early marriage things bt a poverty things. US and UK has one of d highest rate of teenage mother and dey dont have VVF.
All wat am sayin is dat marriage shld nt be peg to a particular age bt marriage shld be due wen d gal is mature enuf to handle pregnancy. After all, nobody is forcing u to give ur daughter out at ant either early age or late age.
Salam.

As simple as that. God bless rationality.

shymexx: Lmao!!

Anyway, why did all of you blow-cold after running around like headless chickens when the bill was signed? It's not even 3 months, yet it seems everyone has forgotten about it. What happened to the petitions?

Nigerians are jokers!! You lot just do everything based on following a trend without necessarily thinking things through. How can you fight against something that doesn't affect you directly without the support of those who're affected by it? - pick your battles wisely next time and stop the unnecessary and cowardly distractions!

I guess, "Shymmex" is now a prophet!

Lousy plonkers!

No "bill" was signed...

gbonsquare: The result for Saturday is out yesterday cos I wrote 3:30 pm d same day and I saw my result yesterday!

Thanks, received their Email yesterday.

arowhales: I got an invite to write the test @ PH, but i couldn't make it due to circumstances beyond my control. Pls does anyone have any idea whether i'll be re-invited to take the test. Thanks.

Log into the online portal and reschedule another test...

Abagworo: Those things are not skyscrapers as they mostly range from 3 to 7 storey buildings. The major reason I criticized it then was that they lacked lift, water and power and are located in dirty environment. Anywhere you find such thing in Port-Harcourt, it looks kind of solid. Look at this one on Eastern bypass.

Okay... I agree.

Ishilove: Bingo is NOT Basenji. The Basenji, also known as the voiceless dog because they can't bark, is native to Southern Africa. Bingo isn't Mongrel either. Bingo is simply known as the Native West African dog because like canuck has mentioned, they are so mixed that their breed is not recognised internationally

Basenji originated from Congo, according to wikipedia. Though it's true majority of the bingo dogs are mongrels, but they basically descended from the basenji stock.

ItsModella: But Basenjis don't bark. The average ekuke/local dog can bark like a dog suffering from mental illness.

The Basenji produces an unusual
yodel -like sound commonly called a
"barroo", due to its unusually shaped
larynx. This trait also gives the
Basenji the nickname "Barkless Dog". (wikipedia)

Abagworo: RIP to the dead. I've still not been able to understand Igbo people's love for 4 storey building or there about. I've once been a critique of the buildings which is noticeable in most Igbo towns and villages.

You could as well criticise the building of skyscrapers in New York especially after 9/11

Sad...
Meanwhile, pls do something about the text censor. How the hell do you use the word "attention" for a building. E Re ction doesn't always mean arousal.

canuck: LOL! Bingo is a name, not a BREED

But if you mean The Mongrel (pictured below), the local dogs common in Nigeria, that is a mixed-breed dog that belongs to no single organizationally recognized breed, and therefore excluded from the ranking.

They're called Basenji.. They're the second least intelligent dogs on the list of about 100 breeds!!

blink182: N120m to study in havard 2 times over or what?


So this Shit made front page? I have 4 beneficiaries of shell scholarship in my house. No one of them received over N4m even though the last graduated in 2006. This story is bogus.

No other interesting stories today or what? 'Bamanga Tukur is about to be replaced with Gambo Lawan', 'Suntai surrenders to deputy' have not made front page and this bogus story is doing so.

reread the post. There were 14 beneficiaries to share the sum. I guess it's gonna include tuition + accommodation+ living allowances. Anyway the title was kinda misleading.

Haven't seen my score online yet, I had my test on Saturday. How long does it take for the result to be published?

Does It "Contains"?? WTF! I know that English Language is not ours,but come on!!

chipet: Oga go sleep! You no get talk!!! How can someone be looking for products that have lasted for 100yrs in Nigeria when Nigeria is only 53yrs old?

Nigeria will be 100 next year. of course the Land and the people have been existing from time immemorial.

Maria-Goretti:
whats the definition of zoology?
I guess you dont know and someone who read this post might think you actually know something about it for you to give such careless adress.

FYI, that course is very rare and in high demand for someone who actually studied, understood and made it a part of him/her.
You can never appreciate the very essence of nature without going through that course and related ones to it.
Quote me anywhere.


Now, just so you know, its pronounciation isnt actually what it means per say, its much more.

Be wise, my friend.

Don't mind the daft punks. Just like some years back when I told some folks I was to study Mech. Engr, they had the impression I'd graduate to be holding spanners and servicing vehicles . Probably the "zoo" in the name confuses them.
In a good system, such courses are invaluable. but even if everyone studies a "professional" course it won't change the unemployment/underemployment situation. Of what use is the certificate of a law degree holder that ventures into fish farming? Wouldn't it had been better if he studied fishery and at least be happy that he's practising what he studied to an extent?

Done with the test in Ph today... Any idea of when the results will be out?

Mccoynelly: rich kid no ni notin do u carry on boss

Did you say "kid"?
