ComputersRe: Please Which Is Best Between Intel Celeron, Intel Dual Core And AMD by CookieBrown: 1:57am On May 03, 2017
Hello there,

It all depends on the architecture of the processor, it's Cache and speed. For instance, are you looking to get an Intel at 2.3 GHZ or AMD with 4 cores at 3.0 GHZ and so on? In this current era, I strongly advise you opt for the Intel i Core (i3, i5, or i7) model for top performance.
RomanceRe: Why Do Many Nigerian Men Woo Ladies Using English? by CookieBrown: 1:37am On May 03, 2017
fratermathy:
I was on my own "jejely" trying to buy kebab, popularly known as "suya" in Nigeria, and thinking of how best to spice my dinner, when one young man just breezed in from nowhere and with a peculiar accent, uttered "Why does you let my heart broke like this" grin grin. I turned to the person that shot me at the back with missiles of words and found him well dressed and obviously talking to his girlfriend or "toastee". He also stopped by for kebab.

I thought I had heard it all but he shot another missile by saying "Sweet-sweet, talked to me naa. What has I done wrong?"

I couldn't get angry, neither could I laugh. In fact, I reflected deeply on the situation and tried to absolve him from blame. I placed the blame on his teachers (assuming he is educated), as well as the bad educational standards in Nigeria.

Later on, I started thinking and came to the realisation that almost all Nigerian men, whether educated or not, woo girls in "Queens English". It is rare to see a Nigerian man woo a lady in Pidgin or in any of the local languages. This is true, at least, in my experience and based on what I have observed so far. Although I must acknowledge that there are a few exceptions. So my question then is this: what is actually wrong in wooing a lady in the language you are most comfortable with, especially those who speak English only as a second language?

I couldn't come up with a clear answer because even in cities, towns and villages where everyone speaks the same language, you observe this trend as well. So there is no justification on the grounds of communication. What then could be the reason behind this recourse to English when wooing ladies? Is it just a standard? If it is, who started it? Why do those who are not competent in the English language try to force themselves to speak it when wooing ladies? Even ladies that are not competent in English force themselves to speak it, just to appear modern and acceptable. What happened to our native Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo, Urhobo/Isoko, Pidgin, Efik, etc, when communicating with those of the opposite gender that we develop romantic proclivities for?

I need some responses to further enlighten me on this issue. Let us all discuss.

Lalasticlala, Seun, Mynd44, Dominique, Oam4j, Obinoscopy, Efewestern, Sanchez01, Ishilove, Fynestboi, Bigfrancis21, Afam4eva, HopeatHand, Refiner, LadyF, Evestar200, Smellinganus, et al: what are your thoughts?
I'm not sure if the OP is simply playing devil's advocate or just very unintelligent (My apologies though). I mean, the OP first made a comment about an individuals accent, then went on to indicate the grammatical error made by the same individual and finally asks the question, why do men woo ladies using English? Doesn't make much sense at all.

In a country of over 170 million people from different regions, tribes and ethnicity, anyone still asking why one person speaks English to another person must be brain dead. How is a Yoruba man suppose to communicate with a Hausa woman? In Igbo? What is the big deal or problem if two Nigerians decide to talk in English? A language which happens to be our official language by the way.

What if the guy and the lady in question are both from different ethnicity? Did you (OP) consider this before coming on here to post such pointless topic?

Speaking English doesn't make you or anyone more civilized, modern or more intelligent than another individual, it's just for form of verbal communication. There's absolutely no need to be intimidated (OP).

VomeSchakleton:
First of all its logical to arrive at the conclusions he did given the information he has. But he is misinformed and ignorant on a lot of issues.


First of all africa has had a lot of great cities and kingdoms. Even within Nigeria we had the sokoto caliphate and the benin kingdom which by any definition of the word will be defined as great.


A question also arises as to why we're not as developed as others even before the white men camebut the answer is simple. Its the weather, tropical countries (People in this region sleep more and are more susceptible to diseases, hence lower innovation and productivity) tend to be poorer than the less temperate countries in the world and theres a strong correlation between this factors. Some tropical countries have managed to progress later on but this is because they had good institutions to work with. Africans didnt and we werent educated enough plus tribalism hindering our stability. The first nigerian coup comes to mind and the subsequent events. Even african americans were thrown into a pit withouth proper education and opressive institutions. A very good book to read today is why nations fail by acemoglu and robinson.


There are emerging countries today like kenya and ethiopia but what fuels these countries is simple, strong institutions powered by the eductaion of the masses. Education is key, no race is inferior to another intellectually, environmental and social factors determine this. I think this preacher may be a subscriber to eugenics or is just ignorant like most of the people commenting here.



The map below clearly proves this. And please, before an im.becile asks me about Australia he should read up on history first.
The weather is responsible for our backwardness? One thing or possibly the only thing Africans are good at is playing the blame game. I mean, can you imagine? The weather? What about Australia and New Zealand? What about South Africa built by the Europeans? What about Nigeria that was initially developed by the English colonialists? Brazil? Panama?

In Europe people get sick also, ever heard of influenza? The flu? Half of Europe was blown to oblivion during the second world war, with millions killed both by war, hunger and diseases, and yet today, they are way ahead of us. Stop giving excuses for failure, ignorance and stupidity, I'm very certain you blame the government for the problem in Nigeria, forgetting it is people like you who elected these undesirables into office, trading of your votes for a bowl of soup, religious and tribal bigotry.

Let him preach as much as he likes, I will not celebrate a man castigating a whole race because he thinks black is bad. He is black, let him do some thing original rather than preach, preaching came from the whites, so what is he talking about?

The whites saw the potentials in the African and so they destroyed it through slavery and colonization. Every problem of the black race today is linked to the white.

From the British who taught the North how to rig elections and inflate census figures to apartheid in South Africa, the scheming hands of the whites is seen in most of Africa's problem.
The traditional rulers in Nigeria you all look up to and trust, are responsible for trading off blacks as slaves to the Europeans. Also, before colonization, we never lived in peace with each other, from inter-tribal wars to human sacrifices and invading other people's land to capture slaves. Honestly, if you knew the history of your people, you will definitely have a change of heart.

Today, no one is forcing your people to embrace western civilization, no colonization, no slavery and yet nothing to show for, over 80% in the nation suffering. We are the cause of our own problems and only Nigerians can solve the problem. Firstly, we must accept and own up to our mistakes and learn from it, else, there will be no way forward.

We constantly keep making the wrong choices even though the right one stares us in the face everyday. We do everything half arsed and constantly seek the short cut route. In 2016, an oil producing nation cannot generate constant electricity for even 3 straight days while a nation like Latvia can, with absolutely no oil. Are we so unintelligent to see there's a problem with this?

If you have read up to this point and you are Nigerian or African, I kindly ask you, is this how you want to live your life? Is this the life you desire for your children? Do you still think we as a people don't have a fundamental problem? No matter the answer, one thing is certain, wrong is wrong and right is right.

EducationRe: “Does Speaking Of English As First Language Promotes Academic Excellence?” by CookieBrown: 7:38pm On Oct 31, 2016
musicwriter:
So, did many countries, until they realized they must take control of their native languages.

Again, no country in the world has ever industrialized speaking a foreign language. The most developed countries remain those that speak their own native languages. Whether you check G8 countries or world powers or first world countries, they're always the countries that learn in their own language. Do the research yourself.

You cannot develop speaking the language of foreigners!. If a nation speak a foreign language, such nation will also be ruled by those who own the language!!.

If you worship a foreign God, you'll serve foreigners who own the God.

This is the law of nature, not my law!!
A Language is nothing more than a means of communication. I really don't know why Africans are so emotional, you all have finally derailed this thread, however, I will indulge you. Going by your weird sense of logic, poor infrastructural development, poor road networks, a failing economy, and poor education are to be blamed on having English as an official language? Don't ever compare English with any native Nigerian language because it is far advanced and more developed than ours, not because it's a language of the Englishman or should I say, the white man but because it was developed by the native speakers, in all areas of society. Now tell me, what areas in Economics, Politics, science and technology can our native languages be used for?


Again, no country in the world has ever industrialized speaking a foreign language - Have you ever heard of the following countries:

1. The U.S.A? A former British colony now occupied by migrant Europeans, Ex African slaves, Mexicans, and Native Americans. They all speak English as the official language and they are one of the most developed in the world.

2. Brazil? A former Portuguese colony occupied by the Natives, Mulatos, Africans and others. They all speak Portuguese!

3. Mexico? An Ex Spanish colony previously controlled by the Aztecs and other natives just before the Spanish arrived.

These are just a few examples, but keep in mind, they are way developed than we are. Now let's mention countries which speak their native languages as the official mode of communication. Somalia, Tanzania, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Philippines, Myanmar, Oman, e.t.c. Why aren't they developed with a prospering economy? The answer is simple, the language you speak does not determine or guarantee your intellectual ability or a nation's development in any areas of civilization. A nation can only move forward and develop itself if it's citizens are committed, patriotic and have the right mindset to prosper.

You my friend need to look closely, people like Tinibu how do you think they get money even though they are not in any elective position?
The Money gets shared into two before it gets released,then shred again B4 it gets to state level, then shared again B4 it gets to LGA level
.When Iw as at Uni, i did not pay school fees for the last three years before graduation cos of my strong head Governor then, he remitted nothing to the Godfathers.This is same story for Allocations to LGAs, %60 of the money get chopped by the Ogas at the top.Sad reality but true.
Hi again,

unfortunately, that's not the case. In fact, the mentioned ''Ogas at the top" are the politicians of the states in the Niger Delta region. It is impossible, I mean, absolutely impossible for a state government allocation to be shared by or with another different state. It's like saying Lagos state politicians are embezzling government funds from say Rivers state, that's impossible. Tinubu has nothing to do with the problems of the Niger Delta, no need blaming others for the problems of the Niger Delta. It is the same state governor who loot's from his state before then sharing with his so-called 'God father's'',so why blame others?

If the state governor's do what they are supposed to do for their state's, we will not be having this argument in the first place. The pipeline vandals, state government crook's and all corrupt officials in the Niger Delta are from the Niger Delta.

Hello there,

do not uninstall Java, it is very important for the smooth operation of your browsers and web Apps. Slow browser problems are often due to excess browser cache, cookies, and other temporary internet files. Another cause could be a malware gotten from visiting deceptive websites, in this case, the best option is a Windows reinstallation.

Firstly, let's try to clean out browser data and free up memory on your device. On your browser (Chrome), go to Settings> show advanced settings>Privacy / Clear browsing data. Select all boxes and choose "From the beginning of time" from the drop-down list. Do this for all your browsers and hopefully, they should begin to work faster.

Hello there,

in situations like this, two things are involved. The Hard drive is either damaged or it's connector (USB or SATA) is faulty, your computer can simply not detect it anymore. Please try testing the mentioned Hard drive on another computer or Laptop and let me know if you observe any changes. Also, I need to know the manufacturer of your hard disk drive.

so U think the while %18 goes to them right?
And the Niger Delta is one state right ?
It goes to the Niger Delta region 100%, or at least to the leaders of that region. What happens to the funds after that is not the concern of the Federal Government, if the leaders choose to pocket it and toss out 200 Naira notes at masses for re-election and other miscellaneous activities, then so be it. If the Niger Delta people can't fight for their right in their own region, what makes you think things will get better when they separate? We both know the answer to that, I advise that you keep an open mind to every situation, sentiments never helped anyone.
TravelRe: Nigerians And Fake Accent by CookieBrown: 12:30pm On Sep 25, 2016
apache77:
I always hear people say Nigerians who travel abroad always come back with a fake accent, even if its only one month they spend in London or America. Is this true? Do Nigerians try to speak like foreigners?

What i think is that the biggest problem you face the minute you step into obodo oyinbo apart from the cold is your accent. Our accent is so thick foreigners cant make out head or tail what we are trying to say. So from immigration right to your next door neigbour, you struggle to communicate- nobody hears's your type of English. Our slow drawl is a big problem, not just to Americans or british but even to arabs and asians.

The quickest way to be heard is trying to speak like these people (americans or Brits) who cant hear you. Asians and arabs ahve grown up watching american movies and mingling with the Brits, so their ( Brits or American) type of accent is hearable and hence universal-much like the dollar is the globally accepted currency everywhere. So for you to be heard, you a naija boy or girl just stepping into America must speak like them.

Over time, if you stay there long enough, you start speaking like these people and substitute your Naija accent for theirs. Some people manage to retain their naiaja accent and use that when home only to switch to their americana accent when they go back.

Do you agree with me? or there is a more profound reason? Share your thoughts
There is something fundamentally wrong with being Nigerian. A back man now has to apologize for speaking or trying to speak proper English? How does speaking proper English (Pseudo American, British or even plain old good English) make a black man less than a European or higher than an African? What most people don't understand yet is that people who nag about inferiority complex are actually those who suffer from it. After all, if you feel intimidated by someone who sounds more intelligent than you, then you are in fact inferior.

Thing is, most folks on here insulting the so called "fake accent Nigerians" will be the first to switch accent at the port of entry of any foreign Airport, yes! I've seen it over and over again. Most will speak proper English in the presence of Europeans (or anyone of a lighter skin tone) and then switch to improper English when talking with other Nigerians, does that make sense to anyone on here?

The reason Nigerians have an accent is because of the language interference, and it's okay, there's nothing wrong with it and there's nothing wrong with trying to speak good English. For heaven's sake, English is not our native language, no shame in having an accent or trying to improve on it, no man should ever be apologetic for trying to develop himself. Nigerians spend hard currency just to take the IELTS, TOFEL and other such exams, simply because we fail to speak proper English, then after getting a great score in these exams, we still go back to speaking improper English? Does that make any sense?

@OP

I feel your pain, I really do but I assure you, the only problem of Nigeria, are the Nigerians. Forget about the politicians, they are a direct reflection of the people.

I really appreciate the gesture of the people offering stipends (If true) to people they don't even know, however tomorrow, after spending this cash, the same benefactors will turn against one another due to tribalism and religious bigotry. This thread has now been hijacked by beggars, yes!! Able bodied Nigerians, who can afford to buy phones and data package, to be able to use this same thread and yet they still complain about Nigeria. As a previous poster said, after the 5,000 Naira, what next? I mean, what next!!!!

This is the difference between Europeans and Africans. Africans think of Now (what can i gain now), that is, the present, while his European counterpart thinks of the future. Some folks will definitely come at me saying shut up, mind your business if you have nothing to offer but I promise them, the situation will not change, it never will. Some folks are even trying to scam the good Samaritans, disguising with multiple accounts and aliases, this is the mindset of the average Nigerian, so corrupt!!!

In any case, I thank the good Samaritans and hope that one day, Nigerians will hold hands together and fight for freedom instead of hiding behind religion and tribalism. Goodnight!

The problem you described will occur again at some point until the screen finally blacks out. There is a problem with the flex of your laptop. Inside the flex is a cable connector which connects the motherboard to the screen, and this cable transmits information from your motherboard and displays it on the screen. I recommend you take your Laptop to a service man and have the cable changed to a new one, it won't cost much.

You are not addressing birds of the air, are you? Whatever the 13% given to Nigerdelta is recovered through the myriad states and local government areas unduly proliferated all over northern Nigeria.
Answer the questions asked before, do you have any idea what 18 or 16% of billions of dollars can do? Especially in a country with a low standard of living? Billions of dollars received for over 20 years or so, what does the ND have to show? Before oil discovery , we still progressed as a Nation, besides without this same FG initiative, the oil would have never been discovered. Are you from the ND? Off course not, only someone from the ND will understand the point am trying to make.

It might come to a suprise to you, most projects in most states in Nigeria are privately financed, even your life is privately financed by yourself , afterall you don't receive a penny from the oil revenue. Where has all the $ gone?

Get crude oil from the Niger delta, spend the money in northern Nigeria.
Niger delta remains rural and polluted.

This is real defeat from war and later colonization.

All things been equal, Niger delta area should have been competing with Dubai in development today.
The Niger-Delta gets 18% or more of the oil revenue, and that translates into billions of Dollars yearly (past and present). What does the Niger-Delta have to show for all those earnings? Where did all the money go to? No development, no proper infrastruture , education lower than ever, illegal refineries , workers paid late e.t.c.

Would 100% resource control make any difference? Well I guess we all know the answer to that.

SW is different from western region mbok. Hahaha
The display of stupidity continues, oh dear! You are in trouble today, i can imagine you right now, in your torn vest and torn underwear, in your small flat (in the SW off course), using a forum owned by a person from the SW, hmmmm! Already seeing the irony yet? As you go out to your shop (Demolition coming soon) this afternoon, take a good look at the names of the streets, the language the people speak, their way of life and bam!!! Reality hits you, no matter how hard you try, you will never measure up to people from the SW.

The only voice you have in this life is here on NL, after that, you are nothing more than a coward and a weakling. Go back home if you don't like us, hehehe!

I am not in SW and so far you are yet to bring up facts to prove Lagos was in the western region govt.
So till then, rant all you want.
I have never seen a more unintelligent post on NL.
Yet to bring facts?? Oh my lord, you actually believe Lagos is not a SW region? Talk of unintelligence and self delusion, hahaha! I can now see you don't even have a high school certificate, such a very poor troll attempt, and oh, you are living in a SW region right now. Stick to selling China made clothes (in the SW) and stop involving yourself with issues far above your level of reasoning, you black biafran monkey.

Smh. Is this you striking back?
Shake your head out of the SW and go back to your Eastern enclave. You have very little to reply with because you are unintelligent and tremble in the face of Facts and Truths. You were born without dignity and grew up to be a man without honor, that's why you have no respect for your hosts. Read my signature, embrace it, abide by it and all will be well with you hopefully.

Are Brazilians Yoruba people? What are you saying ?
Lagos went from colony to capital ,and all the while and now, is being developed by Nigerians from everywhere by virtue of it's former status.
Awo didn't do anything in Lagos , and you wonder why the rest of SW doesn't come close. It's actually Lagos that helps the other SW like nearby Ogun .
Lagos has always been and will always be a Yoruba State. Lagos was founded and used by the Oyo empire as a trading post, at that same time your people were still walking half naked in the SE bushes. The names of the streets, language, way of life and people are Yoruba. Fool yourself all you want but rest assured, the pot is boiling and soon ya'll will be marched out back to the SE, it's already started btw. Ogun is fast meeting up with Lagos, however am certain in the next 10 years, you will also claim it was developed by everyone. Give it a rest already, stay calm and benefit from the SW.

Only a SE person would come into your home, beg for food and then later spit in your face. Jealousy, envy and hate has never gotten anyone anywhere, don't believe? Take a good look at your region. I am not an ethnic bigot but if you make crude remarks at my people, i will strike back!! We will strike back !!!

If you believe you are trully the son of your father, write Lagos is a no man's land on a huge cardboard, go out on the streets of Ikeja and hold it above your head and see if you live through the day. Hehehehe! Coward hiding on a faceless forum.

Forget about the yorubas. They have nothing upstairs. They always want their leaders doing their thinking for them
The people from your state are being killed like Wild Game, soon your family will be killed also and yet all you can think about is people from the SW? People you cannot survive without? Critical thinking is alien to your brain. Soon we will have a repeat of the pogroms in the North, then 1967 all over again and the victims will be? You already know wink . Stop involving yourself with issuses far above your reasoning, stick to selling china made jeans.
