cheat olamide was better last year.

sadly, Olamide's music doesn't fly beyond Nigeria

this south Africa media always looking for an opportunity to insult Nigeria.
what do they mean by " Power house of West Africa economy? "
didn't we top them to become the power house of "African" economy? why are they equating us with west Africa?
can't they just x-ray our economy without insulting us?

is it that we can't do anything for ourselves except China.

hope it doesn't come to a time when we have to mortgage our brains to China as well.. since we can't think for ourselves

the way the toilets are built is enough indication of what it will look like few months down the line. I wonder how comfortable it will be for me to poo with others watching while rinsing their hands at the sink. Won't they find the smell offensive?

The toilets will definitely look horrible later on cos aba is a dirty town. The architect should have put that into consideration.

pls, what does OCHENDO GLOBAL mean?

obviously it's is still under construction, meaning it will be partitioned

I know fujimori would surely be there.
but slobodan milosevic though... I think he was more of a dictator than corrupt

donfineboi:
Yeah.... She's just an average looking ethopian girl..... wait till you see the hot ones. I wonder what you will say?......

Nigerian is still amongst the top five most ethnically diverse in the world.
Ethiopia doesn't even come close.

donfineboi:
See my brother. There is a state in india called Kerala. They speak Malabari. There's another state Hydrebod they speak a different language also. I have Indian colleagues at my work place they tell me these things. India is not as homogenous as you think.... now what I am talking about is the fact the we don't have 250 tribes in Nigeria......we have about 200 ethnic groups with far lesser tribes.....

here we go again.. the op didn't even mention language but more of physical features.

you can agree that Indians look far more similar to each other

donfineboi:
Before I travelled out, I could swear that Nigerian babes were the hottest. Not until I was exposed to see other African ladies especially from East Africa. You need to go out bro and see for yourself. I understand you patriotic and proud of your own. But it's always important to call a spade a spade. I am Nigerian from Kogi state but I wont compromise facts with ignorance.... I have a pics of my ethopian friend and another of me and my guys chilling out.....
So my guy shine your eyes.... it's a very big world out there u won't know until u step out

Ethiopian babe that look all similar..and the OP is talking about beauty in diversity..

meanwhile nothing special about the lady you posted, she looks more like Lebanese-nigerian

donfineboi:
Do you know how many tribes are they in India? with a population of over 1billion people? What are you saying?we don't have 250 tribes.... we have about 200 ethnic groups. Yoruba alone consists of several ethnic groups..... I am yoruba but from Kogi state. My ethnic group is Okun and my name is Tunde. Let's not delve in ignorance please... it's misinformation and could be catastrophic.

yet... India is still far more homogeneous than Nigeria. so what are you talking about?

go do your research, Nigerian has approximately 300 ethnic groups, so the 250 is even understatement

ageless indeed.. remove the make-up, let's know how far

Toks2008:
Exactly...many of us have not gone beyond our stae of origin...go to the east and see freshness,go to the north and you will bow,not forgetting the succulence of our ibo sisters,the perculia skin color of rivers babe that glitter like that of a fairy ale mermaid and so on...

It is only in Nigeria that you will see outward beauty in great diversity...jus look away from Lag and travel to other states o see things.

the way I see it...if you consider that every single tribe in Nigeria (more than 250) can equally stand as independent country, that means there are currently "two hundred and fifty" Nations in one country called Nigeria....

now that is the real definition of "United nation"
and I don't see any country that can match our diversity, not even Brazil

NeuroBoss:
Nigerian ladies have just been objectified and they are all happy.

Because you have not been to Brazil nor read about that beautiful heterogenous country, you wouldn't know why they call them ''uma salada mista'' or ''o aquarela das racas'' (''a mixed salad'' or ''the watercolor of races'') in Portuguese. They are more heterogenous than Nigerians. There are chino-brazillians, japanese-brazillians, afro-brazillians etc. Every human being of all colours, shapes, heights, features etc live as Brazillians.

Nigerian ladies, you are beautiful but say no to objectification. This OP has just objectified you!

and how did you come to the conclusion that every human of all shapes, color, height and features doesn't leave in Nigeria?

donffd:
I understand perfectly, but have you been to Croatia or Argentina?, do you know if their heterogeneous beauty is far more than Nigerian ladies? No, so you cant make Nigerian ladies top of the list in the world because you dnt have enough data

I personally think the large number of diverse ethnic groups make Nigeria unique..and I agree with the OP to a large extent

not so good development, the stipulated time is rather much...12am? that is suicidal 10 pm should be enough

I know the rate of arm robbery attacks we had to endure, even lives were lost before we chose the option gate and time restrictions

in my area of canal estate, Okota, we maintain the road ourselves through community development efforts, so before government can issue such directive and draconian order, they should be involved road construction and security of lives

the most annoying thing is this guys go to other grounds and win matches like they did in Akure, without anyone harassing them or intimidating them but the moment they lose at home their fans will turn to terrorist on the visitors.
am certain NFF WON'T DO A THING

Sorry, but WHO spent N64 Billion 'on Travel' last year?


*hint*

http://www.nigerianmonitor.com/list-of-26-countries-president-buhari-has-visited-since-assuming-office/

even at that.. most of the culprits are still in power. so if she is telling us that the past administration spent that amount on Travels, then it's pertinent to state that some of the arrowheads of past administration have simply converted to sainthood in the current administration.

einsteino:
Try and learn. This is coronation as Edaikehen N'uselu not Oba. In benin tradition, the crown prince must first be initiated into the royal family as Uko N'Iwebo after a 7 day rites(this happened last year october), after that he has to wait for the oba to order he be crowned Edaikhen N'uselu i.e ruler of uselu(a domain of benin), that is the highest rank before he would be crowned oba after the burial of his father. What you witnessed like everybody else that day was coronation of the crown prince as Edaikhen n'uselu. The procession started from the oba palace to emotan shrine and other shrines down to edaikhen palace at uselu.

Coronation of Oba of Benin is such a big deal, what you witnessed is child's play compared to it. The obaship rites last a very long time and starts outside the city in far away Benin villages.

so why coronet, when the old one is still alive?
is the crown prince not meant to replace the Oba? so they crown him to be doing what?

swaggzo:
ONE TIME, I BOUGHT TWO PACKS OF PRESCRIBED EYE DROPS FROM A VERY BIG/POPULAR PHARM OWNED BY ONE OF THOSE GREEDY POT BELLIED IGBO MEN, BASED IN KADUNA STATE..

you bought the drops from a popular pharm..
that is enough info, why telling us the tribe and how big his belle is?
Stop all this nonsense stereotype!

nicerichard05:
His son was never coronated pls get u facts right

very funny, you guys mean business.
if you don't want to let him go,you can as well embalm him till infinity.
I watched his son been coronated..
please who is this?

yea. monkeys actually have got real feeling for women.
when I Was a kid, growing up, you dare not go to the farm alone as a woman at particular time of the month, is either go with a man or you dress like one,if not Orangutan would make a mess of you.

nicerichard05:
[s][/s]

Na You Kill Am? or has his death ever been announced officially by any palace chief? na wa for nigerians ooo

if he was alive why did they coronet his son months back?

hian.
I personally think it's totally boring to marry from one's own tribe.

I mean of all the beauties and diversities of humans, how can I be so withdrawn and laid-back to want to marry from my own tribe?

variety is still the spice of life.

interesting.. I was making an argument against Nigerians building houses very close to the main road just last week.

these are the dangers of such..

the same president that jumped in to commiserate with France over the PARIS TERROR ATTACKS within hours, has not been able to make a meaningful statement even weeks after fellow Nigerians have been slaughtered all over the country

what hypocricy!

Nienie:
Lord have mercy on top of people like me o..see fine geh

who her "fine" epp?

na you fine pass jare!

domack99:
Why is it that our Engineers don't design a central Air conditioning systems in our high rise buildings. Is it that they are not cost effective or difficult to maintain?

this is an eyesore!

Realhommie:
What are we arguing?

I'm not a spokesperson for CAF, also i wasn't categorical in mt statement. I said in quote 'Less than $100m', nvr said that was the actual sum.. And yes i meant the sponsorship deal with ORANGE, i think the actual figure is just under $60m, got wind of it when it was announced. I know there are others and you're right their dealings are shrouded in secrecy.

Whatever CAF is worth is not my biz, i just know they are not as rich as UEFA or even bodies like CONMEBOL and the AFC.. Besides, i talked about our continent not being as developed as the others plus it's very vast in terms of land mass.

You hv stated facts, not arguing with you but you'll agree with me that you cn't compare the body CAF to the others.. The organisation needs restructuring, better organisation, openness etc. Just put 'Issa Hayatou needs to go'....

exactly what am arguing.. the problem of CAF is not lack of money, the problem is probity and transparency. so they don't necessarily have to be at par with UEFA..

Realhommie:
Lolz..

Would you compare a sponsorship package of less than $100 million, for 5 yearz for the CAF champions league to that of UEFA champions league for just a season?

How much do you think the winner of CAF champions league gets overall? That's what a team would get for getting past just the 1/4 final stages of the UEFA champions league.

You just cannot compare now, or.....?

how do you know it's $100 million?
CAF activities are shrouded in secrecy, the agreement of sponsorship deal with Orange was never disclosed, so how did you come about that amount?

what of TV right deals with CANAL FRANCE?
WHAT OF INSURANCE DEALS WITH NIGER INSURANCE?
WHAT OF BANKING DEALS?

CAF IS MORE corrupt than fifa, I repeat don't hold brief for CAF

if they are payed 100m million dollars in 5years how come they are paying winners of the cup just "1m?"
how much is one million in five years?

CAF has never been transparent with it financial dealings

go to UEFA website and you will get an accurate and transparent info on sponsorships and payment but never with CAF.

guy forget story!

Realhommie:
It's not as easy as you think bro..

CAF ain't as rich as their counterparts in other confed's, same as our clubs here in Africa. Also take into cognizance the fact that Africa is a very big continent ( imagine pirates from S.A against El Zamalek in Egypt, consider the distance to and fro, jet lag and all that, it would be tough bro) and not as developed as Europe/Asia/America or even South America.

When you consider all these, you'll understand why it will be difficult albeit not impossible though but it will take years.

how do you know they are not as rich?
do we even know how rich they are?
have we ever been told how much they make?
please don't hold brief for CAF..they ant worth it

indeed there's a big difference between integrity and competence.

buhari came to power on the mantra of honesty and integrity, based on his previous performance in fighting corruption as a military leader but most of us never bothered to check his competence and ability to steer our economy.

we have Ibe KACHUHWU who seemed totally lost as to having a clear idea In solving our fuel scarcity. the same man that was a newspaper columnist on petroleum industry, suddenly is bereft of ideas, now we know that TALK IS CHEAP.

the same manner, FASHOLA has suddenly become clueless regarding power efficiency as we keep taking one step forward and two backward.

they have 3 more years to either impress or wobble out
