He said he would come here, and meet my family but I want to go to Greece and take a vacation.

I asked him to come, but he doesn't want to really. He said he's afraid to come over.

Are you sure you are not a fake?

Those two contradicting statements were made by you. First on page 2, second on page 4 of this thread.

Orikinla:

The rankings of Nigerian universities in Africa should make us sad. Even the so-called private universities did not fare better than the government universities. And these private universities ask the students to pay more, but they lack the qualified teaching staff.

Who are behind the rankings?

Even the highest ranked African University is around 500 in the world, not all parts of Africa are suffering the same problem as Nigeria.

On the issue of harrasing women, it's probably an exaggeration.

The solution to the overall problem is the government to trap the monkeys and transport them to suitable game reserves. No one can convince me that the locals have not been killing some of the monkeys secretly, because recently there was a case of monkey meat being sold in Kenyan markets as beef.

My conclusion is that Kenya government is probably looking for donations/foreign aid from animal rights groups. _{What a better way to do that than invite a BBC journalist and make up some silly stories.}

Circumcisions done after birth is more safer than when the boy is older, so South Africans should stop that kind of culture, or better still, it should be done in a hospital and by a registered practitioner. It's not only South Africans, some West Africans also do the same.

I never know there is an association for Foreign wives in Naija.

Anyway visiting Naija is great, especially for foreigners (but not N-Delta in the interim).

Follow the advice of previous posters, about visiting on your own first without your daughter to assess the situation and probably get to know the guy better one on one.

Goodluck.

Nigeria Cancels Crude Oil Deal with Kenya
By Chika Amanze-Nwachuku, 08.27.2007

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has terminated the multi-million dollar crude oil contract it signed with Kenya Ministry of Energy over “ripples” which the lucrative deal was causing between the state-owned National Oil Corporation of Kenya (NOCK) and the Kenya Energy Ministry.
THISDAY learnt that under the deal sealed by the parties in 1999, NNPC had been supplying Kenya with crude oil at below-market prices, which was then being sold on Kenya's behalf by international oil traders, who remitted the money to Kenya.
Sources said sequel to a visit to Nigeria in 2003 by Kenyan President, Mwaki Kibaki, NNPC and NOCK had executed a one-year contract for the sale and purchase of 30,000 barrels per day (bpd).
The contract was said to have been further extended after a meeting between NOCK and  NNPC, after which the Kenya Energy Ministry directed NOCK to move quickly to contract a new trader.
It was learnt that when the deal was due for renewal early this year, NOCK had put out an international tender inviting bids from crude oil traders to lift the cargo from Nigeria on Kenya Government's behalf, only to be ordered a week later by the ministry of energy to discontinue the procurement immediately, a development which led to the cancellation of the tender quietly.
The grouse of Kenya Ministry of Energy, THISDAY gathered, was that the state oil corporation introduced some terms that were biased against some potential traders.
The tender was said to have been crafted to eliminate competition, as a clause therein stipulated that international traders with outstanding litigation against the corporation would suffer a 35 per cent penalty at the evaluation stage.
Consequently, the ministry was said to have taken over the management of the tender, a development which pitched it against NOCK.
When contacted, NNPC’s Group General Manager, Public Affairs, Dr. Levi Ajuonuma, denied any report of irregularities in the crude oil deal and maintained that the contract was “very legal”.
Ajuonuma, who also denied that NNPC supplied the product to Kenya at below market prices, argued that Nigeria crude oil price was always higher.
“Our prices are never below international market prices. We have never supplied to them below market prices. Our prices are even higher. Sometimes, they (Kenya) lose and at other times, they gain. That is how the market is,” he said.
He also confirmed that the contract was renewed over the years, but that it has been stopped.
The NNPC spokesman who would not disclose why the corporation backed out of the eight-year-old deal, simply said “the contract has been stopped. It has expired.”
On the crisis rocking the Kenya Government over the crude deal, Ajuonuma said it had nothing to do with the NNPC.
“If they have any problem, it is with their own dealers and not with us”, as according to him, Kenya Government does not lift or sell the product by itself but through its oil corporation (NOCK), which he said, lifts the cargo and gives it to those that will sell and then remit the money to the government.
Government-to-government crude contracts were introduced in 1999 after former president Olusegun Obasanjo cancelled the Nigeria 's 41 existing oil marketing contracts as part of his anti-corruption war.
It was learnt that the battle for control of the Nigerian crude lifting tender in Kenya has come at a time when the operations of trading companies contracted to lift crude on behalf of African governments in Nigeria have been in the spotlight following allegations of unscrupulous dealings between the trading companies and powerbrokers.
“There have been several instances when well-connected individuals were found to have colluded with the traders to channel proceeds from the lucrative deals elsewhere, or converted the money to private use,’’ said a report which cited the management of the government-to-government contract between the South Africa and Nigeria as a case in point.
In 2003, the South African press had carried stories alleging that proceeds from a similar contract, secured with President Thabo Mbeki's help in 1999, had been diverted to an off-shore company, with no benefit to the government or the public.
It was then alleged that top government officials and powerbrokers had quietly incorporated a private company in the Cayman Islands called the South African Oil Company to receive the proceeds from the Nigerian contract. At the same time, a company named South Africa Oil was registered in Pretoria.

I saw this article a few minutes ago.
So we are doing this much for other Africans, and we are still not regarded as giant. 
Only God knows what else is going on, our governement don't talk to us about this kind of thing.

Seun:

Stop thinking you're so smart. From the article, the farmers said the monkeys are too smart for their traps.

Why not be smart? In Naija that I know, those monkeys stand no chance of coming out, that they will go to the extent of harrassing people.

they are just stupid,
how can monkey have more right than we human?

Good comment

Eko Lomo:

Well i prefer coffee to coco because it keeps me up during lectures or studying for exams

You be old-school, when research don show say coffee no make man alert.

I stop drinking coffee for reading purpose recently, I drank the last cup at 3pm, I can sleep till 2am the following morning (I guess, I had an overdose).

All in all, I substituted with cocoa (chocolate drink), and I enjoyed the result.

Is Samuel Peter going to win in October?

Is he really good enough to justify our support?

Are Africans ready for FIFA 2010?

Which African Country will be strong enough to win the Cup in 2010?

Me and my friends, we are just talking about, coffee and cocoa, which is the best.

My arguments:
Cocoa is nutritive, You can't have an overdose unlike coffee (everybody remembered the Blair episode, also the recent report of BBC on coffee overdose).

I also believe, I may have suffered from coffee overdose at one point in the recent past, which forced me to reduce my coffee consumption.

Also, coffee does not make you more alert than those who did not have it (according to research, also published on BBC website)

I will like to know your opinion, Nairalanders, you can contribute.
