Politics / Yar'adua Did Not Spend A Dime Of His Security Vote by cola: 2:48pm On Feb 02, 2008
It was disclosed during the week by the National Assembly that Pres. Yar'Adua did not spend a kobo from his security votes for the 7 months of 2007. This money is close to a billion naira and is not meant to be accounted for. And this man did not even make any noise about it until discovered by the NASS

I think this is really commendable.

What do you guys make of this esp. viz-a-viz leadership by example and war on graft?

Nenandi usman is not Shamsudeen usman's wife nor is Allison Madueke Ojo Maduekwe's wife.

Please get you facts right in the future before you castigate other people due to mis-information.

If you can't get simple facts right, how do you you call the President Yar'adull and cry nepotism. Think about it! who has exhibited 'dullness' here now.

Somebody wrote that Ribadu was not allowed into the Aso Villa - another misinformation!
Ribadu indeed saw the President this afternoon (ref: PM News)

If people like you can not get simple, verifiable, everyday facts right, how do you call other peoples names for taking difficult decisions esp when it doesn't go along with your un-informed or rather mis-informed personal expectations.

We LOVE Ribadu. And he has said that guys like you muddle things up for him everytime you insinuate that the President has compromised! You wittingly or un-wittingly help his enemies - our enemies.

to be sure let me state that I love Ribadu to pieces
I also think he's a rare blessing to Nigeria
and I hated the headlines that hinted of his new posting

but having said that,

I think Nigerians love conspiracies! Or rather conspiracy theories

Of course there are always conspiracies, but governance shouldn't be reduced to only intrigues esp not with a person like Yar'Adua whose integrity is not in contention

All the people here who are cursing Nigeria and Yar'adua cos Ribadu was told to go to NIPSS, what are they going to say if and when Ibori is still sentenced to jail - like he's going to be sentenced - despite the absence of Ribadu.

Properties / Accomodation Rent Made Easy by cola: 10:15pm On Sep 03, 2007
I once read- I think in a newspaper - of a property company planning a sheme whereby they pay the lump sum - 2 years + agency + legal - for their clients' accomodation rent and allow the client to pay back an agreed sum monthly.

I'll appreciate anybody that has any information on any such organization to forward it.
Computers / Re: Help! My Laptop Drags! by cola: 3:51pm On Sep 03, 2007
@bigrovar
Thanks brother. I'm defragmenting now. I hope it does it.
I have a good antivirus,so I don't think it's a worm.
I'll see how far with defragmenting, then consider XP reinstall.

@seun
thanks.
The processor isn't celeron. And the only 'not regular' program I have on the laptop is the evolution soccer that I mentioned arlier.
Computers / Help! My Laptop Drags! by cola: 2:28pm On Sep 03, 2007
My laptop is a TOSHIBA Satelite Pro (Pentium M 1.7GHz 516 MB 60GB) running XP.
When I click on anything whether icon on a tab or whatever, it takes anything between 5 and 20 secs to respond.
The green processor light stays ON for that duration too, rather than blinking normally.
I've used less than half of the hard disk space and no heavy load except fifa2005 (Pro Evolution Soccer 5) or so that someone installed.
It's rather irritating. I could as well go get me a PII.
Well, once in while, it doesn't delay- it just behaves when I click.
Any suggestion that can help please.
Religion / Re: Yahoozey Dance In The Church by cola: 3:18pm On Aug 31, 2007
hi all,
nobody here seem to realize that yahoozey is a song glorifying the activities of yahoo boys in Nigeria.
I think it sucks to even contemplate people dancing to that in a church.
A song glorifying CORRUPTION
