The P square boy is just an example. Igbo men are very selective and always go for the best the yoruba have to offer but they meet Baba and he is not having it. With dat said majority of Igbo men are married to Igbo women, so the yoruba men can pick up the extras. It seems balanced to me, besides all the yoruba women i know in london are married or deeply involved in interracial relationship with white men.

@Debosky

Tech 9 sure did himself a whole lot of good with that save . . . but seriously his POSITIONING is wack! he conceded 8 goals against Manure, 4 of those 8 might not have gone in if he were better positioned or was more in charge of the back line or even if alongside his team mates he had not given up too early enuff!
szczesny is very good - but cattermole gave him the chance. if you see the replay again, cattermole should be heading further away from szczesny's outstretched hands but the tool didn't! arsenal's defence is still a bit suspect - but good win!

Perhaps the most important information you need is to be aware that most Yoruba men would have second or third or more wives before they go out of their prime. If they don't do that, they get "baby mamas" outside of your marriage.
Your dude may be in love with you today, but he would likely also be in love with more women later (after you've been trapped with two kids). Be warned.

Fellas,   please   am   a   little   bit   worried
here   and   i   need   your   urgent   advice
ok.  Ive   been  dating   my   boyfriend   for
the   past   three and   half   years   and
we   love each   other   dearly.   We've
even  started making   plans to   take  the
relationship  to the  next  level   by  tying
the knots  but  the  problem  now  is  that
we're  not of  the  same  tribe  because  he
is  yoruba and   am ibo and  our  parents
dont   support our  plans from both   sides.
We've tried our  bests  to convince them
that what matters is that we love each other
and not let the issue of tribe ruine  our
happiness but it seems that fate is about to
play a cruel game on us.                   I dont
know what to do again since none of us is
ready to quit d relationship. So NLanders
what do u suggest we do cos we're running
out of patience. Your sincere and mature
advice will be appreciated. embarassed cry
simple solution: get pregnant!

1. Do you have any thing beyond your instinct that Rooney was perfectly fine. So according to you SAF was lying about Rooney's state of mind. This has nothing to do with his England chances, its about whether a player is emotionally and mentally prepared to give his best. SAF made d assesment he wasn't and knowing Rooney tendencies I agree. If you have evidence otherwise please put it forward. As for Chica not starting, I thought you were arguing against a 4-4-2.
if he wasn't perfectly fine, why did he travel with the team? why did he come on with 20 mins left?
duh! fergie is just a hypocrite. he is the manager of the team i support but i must admit he pisses me off sometimes with his idiotic decisions.
we had a chance to put liverpool away forever and we blew it playing some spastic team selection in one of the games of the season. we made liverpool look like barcelona!

2. CR7 played an evening kick-off at d Bernabeu against Real Betis, hardly what will count as one of Madrids toughest fixtures in any season. Also with Madrid being in a comfortable ucl position he likely will get rested midweek. Nani had no such luxuries. He will most travel and play on Tuesday as well as against City.
so it's about hours now? fact remains ronaldo played last night, same as gonzalez higuain, messi, and hundreds of other south american players.
you made excuses for nani not starting, why then did darren fletcher complete 90 mins after playing against spain in the midweek in a tough fixture?
i hope you can now see your theory doesn't work.

3. Ramirez plays for Brazil who are host of d next WC. Unlike Valencia he wasn't playing competitive matches midweek and making long haul flights. Also Chelsea had a late kick-off in home tie against Everton, hardly d trickiest of fixtures, not to mention their strong ucl position meaning an opportunity to rest him midweek.
all these are bollocks. in the 2nd half of the season, united would have to play 2 league games in the weekend and one tough champions league tie in between. this is where these players earn their stripes/wages. luis suarez played in the midweek for uruguay and played and completed 90 mins in the same fixture you are excusing antonio valencia for. despite the long distance, he's liverpool's best player on the pitch.
messi, higuain, mascherano all travelled to south america for international duties. stop making excuses like only man utd players send players out for internationals.

4. Okay. Personally I agree I would have gone with Carrick instead of Jones and maybe Ando for Giggs. But let me point you are also d one who insisted that you didn't trust Ando to play his best without Tom C. Surely if that is d case you can't then insist that his absence prevented a sure thumping of Liverpool. Its a little dishonest too insist that those selections were baseless.
if i don't trust ando to play his best without tom cleverley, i trust him to play even better with fletcher and carrick. fletcher played, ando and carrick were left on the bench for giggs and jones. what is the meaning of that spastic decision? carrick played no international games and anderson did not even travel.

5. You are contradicting yourself, to quote what you said earlier after pple were complaining when we dropped points against Basle. We now have to play as strong a side as possible in all our remaining ucl games to guarantee qualification as group leaders. You can mock Otelul, but we have little margin for error now. To be safe we have to play strong teams in all remaining fixtures. Are you now changing your stance now.
we don't need to play a strong side to beat otelul. they are a shyte side. it's a bit rich fergie considers liverpool a weaker side than otelul(an obscure team from romania). if we cannot beat otelul with pogba and morrison, then we should close shop and turn old trafford into a zoological garden.
i am getting pissed with the way people find positives in whatever fergie does. he messed up with the line-up. he didn't have to give liverpool that much allowance and play for a draw. our subs bench was the strongest i have seen in my life-time. lindegaard, carrick, anderson, rooney, nani, hernandez and valencia. do you know the creativity the emboldened names would have added to our insipid play at anfield?

6 & 7. LV-2 MU-0, LV-3 MU-1, LV-1 MU-2, LV-1 MU2, LV-0 MU-1, LV-0 MU-0, LV-0 MU-1, LV-0 MU-1, LV-2 MU-1, LV-2 MU-0, LV-3 MU-1.
These are d PL results of all our visits to Anfield since d turn of millenium. Notice no big blowout results. D last time we scored thrice at Anfield was 99 and then we won 3-2, so it was far from a blowout victory. D idea that we would simply thump them if your preferred lineup was out there is wishful thinking. These games are increasingly tight affairs, particularly at Anfield. D idea that we would play them off d park at home is overly optimistic. Liverpool always raise their game to ridiculous levels when United come to town. Its probably their biggest game of d season (even bigger than d merseyside derby). As for d Quieroz connection, its not like we didn't lose there when he was around either.
we did not lose at anfield when carlos queiroz was here. i have emboldened our results when quieroz was here. he's a master tactician. he knows the exact team needed for a certain type of match. it might be ugly, it might be disjointed, but quieroz got the results he wanted when he was here.
without his common sense, we wouldn't have beaten barcelona in the semis in 2008. it was quieroz that told sir alex to take a nap and let him handle that tie - and his plan worked out perfectly! barcelona could not score a goal in 180 mins and we were without an in-form vidic in both legs!

[b]8. [/b]Managers sometimes have to look at d long haul, sometimes tunnel vision is not required. SAF is not beyond error and I am sure he will tell you that he has probably learned a few things from yesterday e.g Jones really isn't ready to play midfield for a team of United's caliber. Management is about risk taking and balancing acts. He took a risk and tried to sneak one, just like we did in 06/07. It didn't work due to Giggs brain fart. But stop making it seem like he was just being silly and silly.  grin
fergie gambles with his selection a lot. it must be old-age autism. this same fergie played berbatov and carrick in the defence against leeds, with valencia as right back. we got lucky on the night. on another day, we would have crashed out. this same fergie had no defender on the bench yesterday, anything could have happened to 2 or more defenders with suarez and downing diving like starfishes.

abeg, fergie was silly yesterday. go to united blogs and see how every fan was pissed with the way we set up against livepool. liverpool of all clubs.

Worst thing the gaffer did for me was keeping Nani and Chicharito off from the start. . . . . . at least with Nani on one side, Young on the other L'pool woulda been forced back a bit more. Nani would also give us a bit of individual brilliance and goal threat. With Hernandez, no comment - just deliver good balls into the box. The sudden love for Welbeck, I just don't get!
Surprise, surprise Evans was steady while Rio was looking like he would tweak something any minute. . . . .hope Vidic is not slowly turning into a Vermaleen case oh.
DGD. . . . .excellent stuff!
that will be the same shaky-shaky de gea, isn't it?

montelik:
D performance was far from great, but anyone who saw d starting eleven would not have expected much. As for d complaints of d initial line-up. This is d difference btwn football manager and real life situations. Rooney didn't start cos his head wasn't right. Playing a guy who is not mentally fit and strong, is worse than playing a guy who is not physically fit.
hogwash! there's nothing wrong with rooney either mentally or psychologically - sir alex was just being a tool! for effing sake, if rooney wasn't banned, what is to say he would have been fit for the tournament. rooney was not fit for 2006 world cup, he was not fit for 2010 world cup. he always gets injured before tournaments, ban or no ban! rooney should have started today and if rooney couldn't start, what about chicharito? was chicharito's dad arrested in mexico or is he gonna miss the next copa too?

Nani didn't start probably cos he just returned from 2 crucial qualifiers with Portugal. Would some of you have wanted him to start if he only barely passed a fitness test in a tight contest like a visit to Anfield.
nani is 24. he can handle 3 games per week.
are united the only team with players playing in the internationals? did ronaldo not play for madrid today?

Valencia probably  only just returned after a long flight from d South America WC qualifiers.
ramirez of chelsea must have come from scotland! grin
his journey back to england was just 30 mins trip!

Should he also have started after such a long trip. Should Vidic have played after just returning form a lengthy calf injury and just completing 90 mins a must win qualifier for Serbia.
i have no issues with vidic starting or not. the defence was okay in ma opinion.
it's the front six that was embarrassing! anderson on the bench, carrick on the bench and he started a useless giggs in a game of such intensity.
liverpool are shyte! west brom would have handed our asses on a plate!

Remember this was 12 noon kick off before another trip to Otelu on Tuesday. Surely if you are reasonable you can understand why these guys didn't start.
otelu? i am sure they won last season's champions league.
they have messi, ronaldinho and ronaldo in their team. otelu that have never played in europe before is now haunting fergie's dreams.
alex ferguson told us today's game is the biggest game in the league yet he fielded a 3rd team to mock his adversary. rubbish!

Imagine if all these guys started along with Fletcher who just played 90 mins for Scotland in a must win trip to d invincible Spain, Evra who recovered quickly enough after sustaining a knock with France and Young who also played with England.
they would have ripped liverpool a new one if they have all started. score 2-3 goals in the first half and then take them off in the 60th minute.
what's so difficult in that approach. these are fecking professionals making £100k+ per week. most of them had their feet up in the past fortnight.
what was anderson doing on the bench? he's been free for 2 weeks, same as carrick, same as berbatov!

Our last 3 visits to Anfield we have lost not cos we had too little quality on pitch, but cos Liverpool have outworked us and cos we were too open. They approach d game like a cup final and prevent us from really playing  with any fluency, and then grind it out chances, look for mismatches and capitalize on mistakes. SAF reversed d trend and we got a point unlike d last 3 visits.
ohh please. our last 3 visits to anfield have been horrendous because of the pathetic line-up ferguson deploys there. surprise surprise, we have not won there since carlos quieroz left old trafford. quieroz will never allow fergie play geriatrics in tough away games. in 07/08 when tevez got the winner, it was new recruits(anderson/hargreaves) bossing gerrard/mascherano/alonso. compact team that couldn't be beaten!

since then, neville, scholes or giggs must play at anfield(regardless of their fitness) - for what? must we overrate experience to the point of foolishness? it was the same giggs that made us lose in 08/09. toying with the ball at the corner flag and he got robbed by kuyt who then fed babel for the winner. it was the same giggs who left a hole in the wall today. why is he a man utd player?

Beat City at home and back to d top of league. This is reality. Its chess not checkers.
but we would have been 5 points better off if we had won today and then beat city at home - it's not like that task is impossible.
why didn't fergie go for it? a midfield of fletcher, park and giggs in the midfield? where's the balance?

sir alex is a successful manager and because of days like this, he gets idolized not because he had it worked out, he was just lucky liverpool were shyte on the day. fergie has become so flawless even his mistakes are now seen as "mind games" !!! his salary should be deducted for this show of shame!

Ryan Giggs though . . . *sigh*
Park was just running around like a headless chicken.

David De Gea saved us today . . . it could have been worse.
if he has any dignity left in him, he should retire after his game.
he contributed nothing, he defended nothing. fergie left him on the bench and took ashley young out(dumb move). imagine what ashley young would have provided on the left flank with rooney, chicharito and welbeck in the box?

united just threw 2 points into the bin(willingly)!

Happy with a hard fought point, which could have been more if Giggs had just stayed in d wall. Some will complain, particularly with d starting line up, but there were always going to be changes when having a Saturday noon kick off, straight after d internationals, away in a derby game. Now for Otelu then d manchester derby.
hard fought point my arse - a match united would have won in a canter. liverpool are not what they used to be. you would see when chelsea, arsenal or man city go to anfield! they will blow this liverpool side away. we just pissed away 2 precious points in a match that would have announced our dominance in the league.

fergie should be shot and giggs is just a liability. peeling out of the wall like a tool(and yet people tell me he's experienced) - so much for experience!
we left our ammo on the bench and played with quacks!
let fergie try the same against man city at old trafford. rubbish boring stewpid game!

shut up your mouth, which of downing and kuyt is an out and out winger?
does kuyt even stay on the wing pinging out crosses after crosses in a game? you better go n count the number of crosses united wingers generate in a game before putting your nose in an intellectual discourse. united's midfield gets so open because of the 2 out n out wingers on both flanks.

[quote author=Mr_TA link=topic=716327.msg9344180#msg9344180 date=1318677257]That is an awful lineup angry[/quote]sir alex ferguson is a tool!
i don't know what he's getting at starting giggs, evans and park - what the heck is wrong with this man?
has he forgotten united can only make 3 subs in the game?

yet we have rooney(league's top scorer), anderson, nani(a constant threat), valencia(another threat) and carrick(protector) on the bench!
it's just ridiculous - and this is why i want that useless ryan giggs gone. with him in the squad, fergie will always pick him in these type of games, if we still have neville, scholes and cantona in the team, fergie will choose them today.

rant over but if liverpool don't beat us 3-0, then they are really shyte!
even if we win this game, i will still be pissed - our european game next week is against a team ranked 90005th in europe.
useless team selection from fergie. guardiola would have done differently.

We just need to give the defence a solid protection.
Lets get the ball out wide to Nani and Young quickly and we will hurt Liverpool
liverpool will play 5 in the midfield as usual and outnumber our mid-2.
it's better we let ando-carrick-fletcher stay in the middle. with carrick protecting the back four, ando and fletcher can then supply those passes to the wide men to feed rooney. if we play 4-4-2 against them, we won't win!

lucabrasi:
well clap for yourself,possibly you don't have a job or your job or business entails going to nigeria every month i have a company/boss i report to here and i don't have the time to visit nigeria every week as for comprehension trust me i do comprehend and understand however i won't rise to the verbal barb.verbal barbs or insults is a sign of mental insecurity
you won't rise to verbal barbs but your psychic ability tells you only jobless people frequently travel to nigeria?
the mental faculty of an average nigerian worries me.


what r you on about??guess you are the one who has issues with english comprehension after all,the topic  hence discussion/debate is about the correlation between the nigerian man going to nigeria to find or join or whatever a wife and why their female counterparts don't do same.
now you ask me how this connects to the topic?well ask yourself this will you as a woman leave the shores of the uk if you have not already had a committed relationship?
do the men leaving the uk from nigeria already have relationships in nigeria? you are talking about english comprehension and yet you are mixing apples and oranges. the nigerian men the op is talking about go to nigeria to find spouses and marry! new relationships, which is quite different from what you are saying here.

the examples i gave and any normal and sensible lady would have had a relationship going before going back to meet a guy
now i will ask you to pay close attention yourself i was adducing reasons why women don't go back home to marry
to recap for you
most women don't have any relationship going in nigeria before leaving the uk. they just go there to try their luck via hook-ups or matchmaking by friends or relatives. some of them even aim the nysc scheme as a good poaching ground to catch these men.

because of  culture/societal issues with an instance that i know hence the example, which is of a typical london career chick,who hooks up with a nigerian based guy and goes back to nigeria,gets married to him and they later divorce comprende?still doesn't change the fact that there are other reasons other than your blanket generalisations.besides how did you come by your figure pls show us the qualitative and quantitative research you have done to arrive at this figure you so readily put up
if 9 out of every 10 nigerian men i speak to tell me they will easily jump ship if they can get a cushioned pad abroad, why won't i come up with a reasonable statistics? do i have to interview every man in nigeria before i can come up with my own statistics - or are you so blind to see what i am saying?


.no sir/ma you are the one mixing things up thereby confusing yourself, the basic premise is this,before the recession in uk,not a lot of grounded nigerian men with an average to blossoming career or business in nigeria will readily give all that up to start again in the united kingdom. with the advent of the recession and its attendant joblessness e.t.c even far less will abandon what they are doing in nigeria even to live here permanently.
what are they doing in nigeria? there are 40 million jobless youths in nigeria.
concentrate - 40 million unemployed! when was the last time you went to nigeria before coming up with your tales-by-moonlight of blossoming career and businesses. which business? yahoo-yahoo?

secondly the fact that the people you know will readily jump at such a chance does not necessarily mean others i know will do so so we both know different people,in different stations open to different opportunities in nigeria(note that we are not even talking about multi millionaires here)
a friend of one of my brothers who is presently married to a briton lives in the northwest,the girl has just given birth to their child and presently she has also gotten the guy a british passport more than 2 yrs now and the guy still lives in lagos but comes to see them regularly.he doesn't have a fantastic job,average yet as at this weekend he was still empathic that nothing will ever make him settle down in the uk, i know 2 other ppl who are my brothers contemporaries like this directly.he didn't bring him here to marry but he brought him here so he can stay here and possibly school/work here subject to him looking around spending time with different family members and experience life in the uk.after  a month in his own summation people in the uk apart from the social amenities and infrastructures went through much more stress than the averagely comfortable nigerian
yes - we can simply assume everyone you know(5 million approximate) married britons and simply refused to join them in the uk because they all have super-careers and mega businesses in nigeria. keep deceiving yourself with your mumbo-jumbo nonsense.

nigeria is superb and then this happened. . . . .http://www.sunnewsonline.com/webpages/features/newsonthehour/2011/sept/24/newsbreak-24-09-2011-001.html

one man scammed 7,000 nigerian youths and took £200 from them each to process their visas.
majority of those 7,000 folks are professionals with "blossoming careers". i won't be surprised if few of your prosperous friends you keep mentioning in your epistle are there. grin you have got a lot to learn!


i agree,even i living in london with no immigration issues or an american or any guy will definitely step up to a fine chick the british passport does not necessarily mean that the kind of guys she is after will offer her marriage.dont forget she is not going to nigeria to marry a yahoo yahoo guy,conductor or a guy sleeping under the bridge she most probably want a guy with an education,career a title bit of money e.t.c
she's going to nigeria to find a spouse! career, age, size and educational background are secondary?
where will you easily find an uneducated nigerian in this day and age. virtually everyone there has a bachelors degree/hnd.

this is precisely where i have an issue with you,a street boy/man will jump at the offer,same way the bums we see on the street corner here will jump at an offer to do anything for 10 quid.however a nigerian man with the qualities listed above might not necessarily jump at the offer.
this is why i made the comment at first that you have a partial disconnect about present day nigeria, people are getting mortgages,car finance i.e brand new cars not tokunbo we use here
90% of the nigerian male population would jump at the offer. marrying a brit is different from student's visa.
in 2 years, it means he can have a permanent residence here, converts it to a british passport and travels as he pleases. what do you take nigerians for? the appeal of never having going to queue at the british high commission will force 90% to jump at the offer - a fact that simply evades you.

my ex gf works in one of the telecoms coy in abuja(M.T.N) as a call centre staff after she finished uni and post grad in london and aberdeen,she is on a basic starting salary and with benefits  she earns more (take home when converted to pounds) than a team supervisor doing same job in the uk.
she has a better quality of life than the manager of a call centre here in the uk and with a company loan she is able to get a brand new car which is deducted from her salary monthly not only this they are given bonuses every year and also offered household items for a fraction of the price like generators,washing machines e.t.c this is not all the benefits as they enjoy even twice more than i have listed here and any mtn staff can bear me witness.now pls compare this to where you workeither visiting or staying,the opportunities available in the country compared to where they r coming from will determine if they r staying or not if you raise the same argument  using america or canada i will have a different view based on my experience.
you are talking absolute rubbush.
your girl working as a call centre staff for mtn earns more than a team supervisor with the same job in the uk? you must think you are debating with a dolt. how much does he earn? 5 million per hour? then you pushed it off the edge by saying she enjoys better quality of life than the manager in the uk - you probably don't know the meaning of quality of life. a security officer in the uk makes more money than most bank managers in nigeria. you chose the wrong example - i will give you the opportunity to edit.

asides the infrastructures like light,security(which is not 100% fool proof) e.t.c when talking about opportunities and quality of life no sane man will knowingly give up their career or business because of a uk passport
you don't know the meaning of quality of life, so i cannot even respond to the gibberish you typed there.
i think frequent visits to the embassies or the airports in nigeria would tell you about the number of people who wants out - never mind copping a british passport. do you know how much nigerians cough out applying for visas everyday in that country? do you know how much nigerians pay per day for arranged marriages?

abeg, go and sip some coffee!

@coogar
reading your responses i couldn't help but make a comment to correct your impression about nigeria and nigerian men generally.
from what i have read of your comments it seems you have not been to nigeria in a long while hence are suffering a partial or total disconnect from what is on ground.i live and work and studied in the uk both undergrad and post grad but i do travel to nigeria at least once a year.
i am sure i have been to naija more times in recent times than you have done in the last decade but this immaterial in this debate.
it seems many nigerians cannot read or comprehend effectively. . . .

first of all the reason you don't get more women getting married to nigerians resident in nigeria has nothing to do with the reasons you have mentioned,it is because of the different cultures, most women who have lived abroad are used to the behaviour of the western man i.e being caring,helping out and stuffs as opposed to the average nigerian man who is still conservative and old fashioned in their outlook they still expect the woman to cook and clean and do the necessary house wife duties.
you have not discovered the cure of hiv-aids here cos i mentioned this in my first reply:
coogar:
the mentality of most nigerian men is a big factor too. many nigerian males at home still see women as slaves to be bullied or to be manipulated!
the second reason is because most men who are even averagely successful have already being hooked in nigeria,the chances of finding a man who has an ok to good to excellent job without a serious relationship is next to bill. i know a couple of my female friends actually who went to nigeria to join their husbands one of them is divorced now after 2 yrs due to the first reason i adduced above and the other has not been able to hold down a relationship.
if they are joining their husbands, how does that correlate with the topic we are discussing?
concentrate - the topic says why don't women go back home to marry, not join their husbands - the examples you gave above are married couples that are separated, right?

by the way both of them have british passports,they are well off financially with well off parents and even got good jobs when they got to nigeria.one of the them man was not even bothered about applying for the british passport she actually forced him and did all the processing.
if they are well off financially, they are probably in the 10% echelon i described in my previous posts.

on a last note,go and find out any nigerian guy you find that is doing ok the chances of them grabbing an opportunity to travel above is average 50% before now it is even lower like 40% the ones who do just come here on holidays and go back who wants to leave a good quality of life and for the sake of a better life in uk come here and rent a single room,start hiding for ukba and eking out a living doing odd jobs?nigeria is not that bad.
this is why i keep saying nigerians have lost their ability to comprehend.
grabbing an opportunity to travel abroad has different facets. visitor's visa, students' visa and whatever are not what i was talking about.
i am talking about marrying a british citizen and remaining permanently in the uk where you can work and travel without restrictions. who marries a female british cititzen and still hides from ukba or eke out a living doing odd jobs? lucabrasi, compare like for like!

my dad brought my brother here just last month and already my brother changed his mind about staying after going round london and seeing what people are doing in the name of earning living he is going back out of his our volition next week according to him he has a much better quality of life in nigeria don't make blanket generalisations about nigerian men when you only know a handful
your dad didn't bring your brother here to marry. so you are comparing apples to oranges!

the premise of my argument is. . . . . . .a chic with a british passport going to nigeria to find a husband would get many offers. 90% of the men in nigeria would jump at the offer because - it's the easiest way to get the indefinite leave to remain, they can work without restrictions and there's a soft landing pad because the woman bringing you in must have an address and some tangible amount of money to sustain the man before he can sustain himself financially.

this is whole different to just travelling to visit or travelling to become a student and blah blah blah examples you guys keep bringing up.
we are talking about marriage/settlement!
there's a universe of difference between the two!

why should 'what people will say' be your greatest concern in a relationship?why should you even listen to them at all if you find a good woman in the lady with a dirty past?why can't she be forgiven her past?
He who has no sins___
because she's more liable to commit more sins?
she didn't stop after the 2nd guy, she didn't stop after the 6th, after the 9th, after the 11th, etc
why should she stop after the 16th?

Not [b]medical [/b]forensics, we are talking about computer forensics or digital forensics. Dealing with your PCs, mobile phones, USBs, SD memory cards and other devices.
computer forensics are wide - medical, criminal, etc.
but i get where you are coming from - of course there would be computer forensics but at a very high security level e.g presidency and national security. you will only find that with military intelligence, state security service, etc.

- not the common police station!

Hi everyone, I'm curious to know what do you think when a woman has about 10 or 15 experiences before, are you scared or on the contrary you would think she's got experiences so your intimate relations could be intense

I'm interested to know as well, i have being searching for any professional organisation in Nigerian that deals with Forensic computing but failed to find one, i have written EFCC but they did not reply.
forensics in nigeria? you make me laugh.
what are they going to do with it when there's no database for pictures, fingerprints or dna.

nigeria's torture chambers in the police stations are our forensics.
it works effectively. by the time a criminal is dealt with, he would confess what he did not do. fingerprints or dna sample matching na long thing. cheesy
