PoliticsRe: Asari Dokubo’s Wife Says Critics Of Payments To Ex-militants Are Insane by cog1: 7:10am On Aug 30, 2012
"Jonathan is a NIGERIAN",not Nigeria, a typographical error.

Aigbofa: Can you believe this? Anyway, Jonathan himself was an appeasement to the militants, because I don't understand why Obasanjo would want Alamieyesiegha's deputy to become Nigeria's vice president in the first place.
First and foremost,Jonathan is a Nigeria first
before he became anyone's deputy and has the
right to aspire to any level of political
aspiration in the country including
President which he is now,with or without
Obasanjo.
Unless they want to believe
that the ijaws are not part of Nigeria,then
they should be appropriately informed
and allowed to secede!!!!!!
Everything that woman said is right. In the
North, Niger state in particular,
gold is being mined and the proceeds,the
Entire 100% go to the state without
Remitting half kobo to any other state. Is
Niger state not part of nigeria,are they not
also duty bound to contribute towards the
Economic growth of the country or is it
boko haram they can willingly contribute?!!
Smh
FYI,these northerners are using these
diversionary tactics of money paid to
militants to obliterate the fact that all
the oil blocs are owned by northerners
alone; and to date, no southerner,not even
from rivers state owns any oil blocs!!!!
If this is not injustice of the highest
order,I wonder what it is.
PoliticsRe: Nigeria Crude Oil Income- Femi Falana by cog1: 6:00pm On Aug 29, 2012
What is a budget after all? Simply put
it is allocation of specific amounts from
Total money generated within a given
system.
So,budget cannot be made without a source
Of income generation or are you going to
Budget on air?!!
In Nigeria today,crude oil accounts for
98.3% of money flowing in the system called
Nigeria and ultimately spent within this
Same system. So,how can anyone say the oil
Revenue is not part of the budget?!!!!
Pls if the Nigerian nation is now engaging
In international armed robbery pls let us
Know or how do we explain the money
Circulating in the system without
Identifying its source of generation only
To appear in the budget!!!!!!!!
Scandalous!!!!!!!

FACE: Some people should stick to what they know, although I think that a JS1 one student should be able to have answers to analyses by Falana.

1. Oil does not dig itslef up, load itself into tankers, sell itself and hand over all proceeds to FG

2. Shell and co are not paid with hand shakes or in "thanks" as part of the JV with FG. They have their own cuts like 40% ?.?, which leaves FG with 60% ?.?

3. Oil producing states take 13% of FG's share of JV proceeds.

4. The state governments share the remainder of the money with FG taking the lion share.

5. Surpluses are derived from the difference between the budget benchmark and the selling price. This surpluss was once put in excess crude account, but states have been insisting that the money be shared and FG have been chopping some as well.

I agree that the government is very wasteful and should be accountable, but there is no need to embark on an argument without thinking it through.
Very insightful,well done. Correct on all
Points including the fact that some pple
Take pleasure, in fact it is bliss for
Them, to engage in arguments without first
Thinking facts through!!! I think the Bible
Has a name for such individuals,its left to
Them to find it out!!! You forgot to mention
NNPC as well,even recurrent expenditure alone
When divided up into all the FG ministries,
Parastatals,etc is more than enough to
Gulp the so called balance.
Fiscal federalism is the answer.

dplordx: I dont know why the military wont just take over and kill all this heartless, and soulless buff00ns. Im tired of complaining about all these abokis, and these fish-brain idi0ts ruling my country. Or, I'd rather they just let my Biafra leave peacefully. GEJ is not representing anyone, and whoever call him a "drunk" and "glutton" hit the nail on the head. How can you just sit there and let some CBN Emir destroy the economy. For chrissake, develop some Pe.nis and phuck this guy up! angry
It takes a drunk and a glutton to know another drunk and glutton! Inefficiency and ineptitude have been the identification symbols of Nigeria and are not peculiar to the GEJ Administration. FYI,there's such a thing as division of labour and it would be unthinkable in a democracy to fire a CBN chieftain because he introduced new currency notes without tangible evidence of a more heinous crime even Obama can't try that poo. If you are so aggrieved y not take Sanuai to court by yourself since you got so much "balls"and demand for a reverse in that plan;or are you not still a Nigerian for now at least? All these invectives spewed on NL amount to blowing air from the a.nus!

[color=#006600][/color]
Onlytruth: I wonder where all the so called "Niger deltans" are now. They won't show up now. The more they avoid direct confrontation with the North over things like this, the more I think that Ndigbo should support the North in them, because we should not fight their wars for them, especially as some of them would rather fight Igbo than aboki.

I hope that Ohanaeze will stay away from this until we know who to support for sure.
Yes,u r indeed right and very sensible too!!

RomanceRe: Should I Forgive Them??? by cog1: 12:39pm On Aug 07, 2012
Although,the original op is not here to
Read this;here goes my own thought.
The op so far seems to have managed this
far after the unfortunate incident and I
have to say she's tried.
As per those saying she should forgive,
I don't understand,is it forgiving them
To the extent of wining
and dining with them at one table and
prolly be poisoned by them so they'll
finally blot away
the ultimate memory of their evil act?!
Please,they should carry on with their
lives and let the poor op alone abeg!
If she didn't run into them,would
they have looked for her to beg for her
forgiveness? If truly sorry!
I think they are just scared she might
be planning something against their evil
heads not that they really need forgiveness;
two of them are natural schemers and
terrible people! And always afraid that
others might be scheming too!!!!
She should forget about them jorh jare!!

RomanceRe: I'm Scared Of Relationship by cog1: 11:21am On Aug 07, 2012
Its unfortunate that the use and dispose
era's caught up squarely with this
generation.
Are you from a single parent family or
do you have them around you a lot?
Hence,the exposure to odd tales/sights of
r/ships that never worked.
Karl Max said "matter determines
consciousness and consciousness
influences matter."
In most,not all cases,we are ultimately
a product of our environment. In cases
Where this does not hold true,there's
always a stronger opposing
family bond/influence or a personal
determination to be different.
Another thing,do you have skirt chasing
As a habit? If you do,its a habit that
takes a stronghold on a person and no
Amount of advice can break it unless
you,yourself,decide to.

of wedlock must be married by the offending
Man and you'll see your house help as your

After this your mum,should go for a male
rather than female house help.

To blame. It is a well documented fact that
Spouses infect themselves with all sorts of
STDs/HIV and AIDS when they are not faithful

far as it does not infringe on your

RomanceRe: Damn, This Generation Of Gals Suck...how Do We Get Married... by cog1: 5:42pm On Jul 27, 2012
There are decent girls out there;
the problem is being able to meet
as well as being careful not to
brush them aside on "face" value
or "pocket" value.
I am a strong believer in goodness
in people;cos not all are bad.
Though it could hurt when people
end up betraying trust reposed;I still
feel its far more easier to trust in
the good that could be found in people.
Though,personally,I trust very easily
but my trust for anyone once betrayed
can never be regained;I still prefer
the peace and quiet I enjoy as a result
of not running "high tension" cos of
suspicion,so I choose to trust.

He is not the only man seeing

for keeping such pictures in his phone;
other than that he wants to fantasize
over them!
He knows it makes you unhappy but he
won't stop meaning he's hooked on
this habit! The whole essence of a
r/ship is friendship first which
includes companionship and open
mindedness. As it is now,you already
lost your freedom of speech over
this issue.
Your best bet would be to move on
and let him find his ikebe girls, since
he's obviously hooked on them; before
the manhandling turns to punches
over your "interference" in his habit!

Why do I get this feeling that you've been
giving this girl the impression that you can't
do without her and that's why she's taking you
for a ride?!!!!!
Sorry if I'll sound harsh but what you are
feeling is mere infatuation,if not obsession.
Prolly you both disvirgined each other,so?
It happens everyday!
If you didn't do it,maybe 1 of these guys would
have done it sooner than later!!!!! So there's no
reason for you to feel over committed if the lady
in question who lost something obviously doesn't
give a hoot about how or who she lost it with!!!
If its how the families will take it,you don't
have anything to worry cos the fault is not from
you. Besides,in this day and age who marries to
please others? You are the only one to
live with your mistake if you try that!!!!!!!
Or are you viewing her as some sort of trophy you
display to friends,cos you said she's big.
No matter how big cow dung be,them no dey chop am!
Stop those tears!
If you want a reason to cry,go and see the pictures
of young children slaughtered by BH in cold blood
and weep genuinely.
As for sleeping with her,DON'T!Unless you want to
be a sharer in the harvest of STIs,AIDS et al!
My advice to you is look for a decent young girl,
who is ready to stick with one man and continue
your life;you'll discover that you'll forget all
about her. Don't forget to run tests on the new
lady to ensure you are not infected with anything.
You have your whole life ahead of you
waiting to be planned out.

Why did she not link you up to him all the while?
Rather,she chose to flaunt her imaginary "affluent"
Lifestyle in your face by picking toaster's calls in
Front of you,pinging,etc.
She's not a humble person at heart and strikes me as
One who see other humans only as a tool to achieve her
Own ends and nothing more.
In everything you said,you didn't mention even one
Quality you like about her,which you would have done
If there was any.
Maybe,you are considering her for the sake of oil job offer!!!!!
BTW,if her rich brother can get a job for someone else,
Why can't he get his own sister a job?!!! Something is
Not right about this greek horse job offer!!!!!!!

RomanceRe: Does Falling In Love Affect Your Manhood by cog1: 4:15pm On Jul 25, 2012
You invariably suggested from your article
That low testosterone counts are actually
Beneficial as opposed to higher counts and
This according to you is common in
Competitive men(by which I understand,guys
Who are not committed to a particular
R/ship)as opposed to higher counts in men
In committed r/ships and also men who fall
In love and you implied that this is
Harmful.

Well,it is a wrong assertion.
For avoidance of doubt,the normal level of
Testosterone in your blood stream starts to
Wane around age 40;1% is lost each year.
Levels in the low range contrary to your
Suggestions increases your chances of
Dying of a heart attack,which is more
Common in older men;due to a combination
This and other factors.

Lower levels are actually a disorder called
Hypogonadism.It even causes reduced levels
Of sexual desire as opposed to your claim
In your article.

Doctors even offer counsel on how to
Increase testosterone levels so, if
According to you marriage and falling in
Love increase it;it means the
Originator of marriage and falling in love
Was right and you are wrong.

Having an erection causes your circulating
Testosterone levels to rise significantly.
Therefore,men who are not in commited
R/ships and have regular erections all the
Same also have high testosterone levels as
Well as opposed to your claim in your
Article which invariably led to your
Question on how has falling in love
Affected their manhood?
The answer is positively.
Please do your research well before you
Post. A lot of pple,me included,are
Benefitting from well meaning discussions
On this forum.

RomanceRe: Is This a Right Test of My Love and Trust? by cog1: 1:28pm On Jul 25, 2012
Testing someone you told that you trust is in itself
A betrayal of the trust that the other party had in your
Statement that you trust that one!
Trust in itself implies that you have confidence in the
Truth,goodness,character,power and ability of someone in
The first place.
So,what then is the essence of the further test?!!
It only shows that the one claiming to trust the other
Party in the first place is nothing but a liar!!!
And when such one greets you "good morning",you better
Check the time;simply because you can't rely on the
Veracity of statements made by such a person.
You can test someone if you've not already told them that
You trust them.
Our word should be our bond;let your yes be your yes and
Your nay,nay;any other thing is of another source other
Than God.
In summary to answer your question;you can't test somebody
You opened your mouth and said you trust. Shikena!
