lonelydora: In terms of traffic laws, Nigerians are ready to give bribe, because we r all guilty of one law or the other. In other terms, I think we r 20% ready

I think you are right, but have have you personally given such before? If so, under what circumstances was it?

Garri the 1st: 20 Year old orphan!!!!

At 20 he is old enough to fend for himself....

You are right, but still...

samuelkaykay: pls dont invite insults,are you deaf?don't you know about the security challenge s in the north?what do you know abt airport security file?if you don't have a good idea pls logout.

Dude, security challenge made PDP to put fire-truck on the runway? I hail you oh.

This bud of love, by summer's ripening breath,

Did you know, Romeo and Juliet meet one night and get married on the same night. Classic love at first sight.

macjive01: No fellow citizen, PDP is not breaking aprt , it is only weeding out the most corrupt vile creature that has lured within it for far too long.
my Brother, this is FRESH AIR thingz

deeplow: That is the 3rd worst way to die(the 2nd being, having your manhood sliced and force-fed to you,and first being,having both hands and legs tied up to different cars,and the cars driven towards different directions).That being said,the kim dude is crazy,wickedand power-drunk.I hope somebody forces a full-stop on him the Abacha way.

I think being buried alive ranks up there too

Look at them now, running from pillar to post. Mstcheeew

Common, seriously? Is this where we have descended to? Parking fire-trucks on runways?
PDP needs to wake up and smell the coffee.

Have any of you given bribe to police before? If you did, why and would you do the same in the future?

Garri the 1st: The 20 year old guy is a coward. At 20 you still allow yourself to be flogged WTF

At 14 I ready to "set blow" with anybody wen try to flog me.... say who you be.

Dude is an effing coward....

RIP

Haba Monseiur Garri, the guy was an orphan putting up with this cousin na. Just try and put urself in his shoes, he was probably completely dependent on him for many things and would be unlikely to fight back.

icon aus: Instead he will be remembered as the man that brought the necessary change , inevitability and an end to the fraud called Nigeria. He should be given the opportunity to correct the lopsidedness in the Nigeria which some regions are not comfortable with since it flavors them .

I don't quite understand all you've said, but what special magic trick can he conjure in the next four years, if he wins, that he could not do since he took over from Yar'adua about 6 years ago? We have already seen all he has to offer.

One thing I know is if Jonathan does the job he was elected to do, all this talk about re-contesting or not will be moot. He will be cheered on and all true Nigerians would carry him, on their backs if they have to, as he campaigns for a return. But he has sadly proven incompetent. That is still fine as all hope is not lost for him. All he has to do is step down 2015 and he becomes a hero again.

Even more worrisome is the utter cloddishness of his vice - Sambo. Imagine if GEJ died today (God forbid!), Sambo would be Mr President! . There are even stories he plans to switch him with Yerima to divide the core north!!! We were beguiled by "no-shoes" and "fresh air", what would he use now?

prem love: and he will be a coward if he step down. Is only a fool that runs away from problem with out finding solution to it. If the north want's to crumble because GEJ seek re election their should simply GO AND DIE

In the immortal words of Demosthenes, "He who fights and runs away lives to fight another day". It may seem cowardly to surrender to common sense, but at what cost would such bravado be? The North should go and die? You obviously do not want the best for Nigeria as a country.

zegbeye: Mr President I believe in ur good sense of judgement whether u contest or not. If u do I will campaign online for you and use every contact I know here in Australia and Nigeria to do same for u online because I ve been following Nigeria politics and development since Buhari time up until today and I know u are a gift with a lift to this country. But if u decide not to contest...pls bring a Dangote and pair him with Goswill Akpabio of AkwaIbom state.

I'm sure you were joking about a dangote being president.

Moral of the story is: Be careful what you do today cos it can create a messed up country tomorrow.

Freewilly: Are you trying to get me banned ?

Was gonna say something, but your cute profile pic made me change my mind.

Mindependent: I kept it in the freezer, he was sexy, so if I ever want a sexy baby I can use it and hook him too

Excuse me? If you ever want a sexy baby? Dnt know if tis just me but dat sounds so wrong.

Pic or it didn't happen.

Lesson to learn here is: Do not eat somebody's Christmas rice without permission. Seriously, you could die.

Freewilly: Very sad, why didn't they relocate the poor animal to an animal sanctuary to promote tourism. But those tiger clawed face oily soup eaters killed the poor crocodile to use in their soup.

freewilly, oily soup eaters Common rilly?

[quote author=Mayor_of_Lagos]Why are they shooting the croc? Africans have no respect for animals and environment.[/quote]Excuse me sir, but this "croc", was roaming about a residential area where kids play. If you had a gun and you did not shoot it, I would call you quite irresponsible. The alternative, of course, being to release it back to the bush it came out from? or as Freewilly says, a wild life sanctuary! LMFAO. Believe me, that "sanctuary" in Nigeria, would be a worse fate for such a magnificent creature. Live free or die hard!

If Jonathan decides to contest, Nigeria may not survive 2015. Why? If he wins, the APC alliance will heat the polity to boiling point in the North/West block; and if he looses, the SS/SE block will cry blue murder. Whatever happens, Nigeria looses.

His most patriotic decision will be to step down in 2015, present a credible candidate for PDP and determine to ensure a free and fair election. If he does this, then his retardeeness may be forgiven and he will become an elder statesman too. Anything else, and he will be known forever as the man that destroyed Nigeria!

Egba girl: Yes and if you have been there, you'll notice some places are just as bad as the slums we have in Nigeria.

Again, like I said, the white people never left South Africa hence the development.

...And you don't think their climate has anything to do with why the whites never left? Or you suggest that if we had a temperate climate, the British would have simply handed us independence without a fight?

I read this thread from start to finish and was almost moved to tears. Most of these things people say we produce and are proud of were being produced in 18th century Britain when they had no electricity, using steam and coal power alone. These technologies have been around for centuries. Those guys also had to invent the engines they used and the production processes too. But here we are, with a whole world of vast technology to tap from, crying NEPA NEPA.

In the late 18th century and early 19th century steam and coal generators were used in the industrial revolution. I know for a fact that water generator technology is still around, if power is d concern. We have to wake up very fast. Can u imagine that in the 21st century, Nigeria has no railway lines and steel industry whatsoever. This thread was a real eye opener and I shall cry to sleep today.

Egba girl: Some African countries have winter (southern Africa) and some Asia countries too. :/

And dats why South Africa is as developed as it is. If you've been there, you'll notice some places there are even finer than UK, same as most other southern African countries.

Omo, thank God for Naija oo. Cos for North Korea, dem fit kill you becos of ur 4 o'clock eye. Dem go talk say u dey eye dia oga sumhow.

I can swear that I have always argued that our climate is a serious limiting factor to our development. I posed a question to someone once, name one country that experiences a proper winter that is not developed to a large extent. The person was silent. I think the heat messes with our brains, and does not favour FDI cos foreigners cant stand it.

I proposed then that air conditioning systems in Africa (everywhere possible - schools, offices, buses even bus-stops eventually) was not a luxury but a necessity to development, and I still stand by it. Think about it, anywhere there is AC, don't you notice people behave calmer? Food for thought.

What you call "forming", is called being a lady. Just like a guy opening a door for a lady is called being a gentleman, and not forming.
