am abbas, can anybody give me some tips on how to bumbard the promblems most people encanter during jamb

The best way to pass JAMB is to KEEP AWAY from forums for the time being. You should seriously be studying for the exam not surfing. And pay particular attention to your spellings when sitting for English Language. All the best.

Nah Lie! They have washed their dirty linen in public, they must dry it in public.

To keep Nigeria One
Is a task
That must be done

no.

Didn't bother about the link too but I suppose trains are usually overcrowded peak periods when people are going to and returning from work. And that is why tourists cannot buy a normal travelcard until after 9.30 in the morning when workers are comfortably settled at work. Even then again, it depends on which part of the platform a passenger is, sometimes one finds out that the coaches at the extreme end and the one nearest to the driver is always almost empty when the ones in the middle are filled to the brim.

If one feels the underground are usually crowded, then one can take the bus which comes always on schedule, and then there's british rail, or better still take a cab. You always have a choice and you get to your destination on time. NEVER EVER compare transportation in UK to 'molue'. What?

EloSela:
Wow that is cold them being prepare to hand the baby over to Social Services .

My sister who is a Senior Midwife says that all non-British citizens are required to show their passports after giving birth.

If payment can not be made there and then they must make sure they settle the bill before they leave the UK. All passports details are then passed onto Immigration and checks are done before you go through the gates to the departure lounge.

A person found to be trying to abscond without having settled their bill are then deemed to be in breach of their visa and banned from entering the UK again.

I would imagine that Nigerians who come here to give birth must be of the elite class and have money to pay and so I would also deduce from that they are coming here for the healthcare provided because one does not gain citizenship by birth anymore. We all know that healthcare is not up to par in Nigeria…lets not front!

If anyone wants non-Nigerian citizenship for their child then they should go to America but they are even stricter and let’s not even talk about the bill! One of my friends was refused entry into the United States when she was only 6 months pregnant but they let her into the UK where she gave birth and got away without paying but she was lucky.

Passing all passport details to immigration, Nigerians are soooooo smart, in a situation like that they would send their passports home ahead of them and boldly leave UK with the baby with travelling documents. These people are "mumu".

Outstrip:
Whoever your wife wants. It is not complicated at all. If she wants her mother now then your mom should wait until after your mother in law leaves.

I quite agree with outstrip there. Seek your wife's opinion first. Whoever she wants come.

100 wraps of cocaine for N20,000 paid twice - so so stupid. She could have been killed outright. It's so sad when you hear of, and see desperate suffering masses being taken advantage of for 'peanuts', while others sit in the senate and house of reps and 'steal' millions a day for doing nothing.

This is a true story.

A friend's junior sister was in UK last year to deliever her baby. After her delivery, the hospital asked her to produce her passport or any form of identification which I would say myself is very unusual. They needed to see this before she is discharged with the baby. Trust Nigerians they first of all made up a story about the passport being with the uncle, then they said its kept in a bank for security. They expected the staff of the hospital to take their story hook line and sinker.

Unknown to them the hospital has called Social Security on the day they were to be discharged to come and pick up the baby. It was only only when they realised this that they ran home and produced the passport which has a visitor's visa. They ended up with a bill of £1,800. They had to run helter skelter to be a ble to pay the hospital bill before the baby was released to them.

So be warned, just in case you intend to come and have that baby in UK.

That wouldn't be a bad idea, the nollywood bit I mean. We could for instance do the Obasanjo family story.

Nigerian prisoners abroad have rejected the option to serve jail terms in Nigeria

April 01, 2008

"The Minister of Foreign Affairs said that Nigerian citizens serving various jail terms in foreign prisons have rejected request to have them return to complete their sentences in Nigeria.

He said, ”Some times we could make a plea to countries to allow Nigerians in their prisons to come home to serve their sentences, we have succeeded in doing that.

”But you may be shocked to hear that many Nigerians who are in jail overseas would not be happy for them to be sent back to Nigeria. They consider it a hostile act to ask that they be brought back to Nigeria.

”Some of them prefer to be there to coming back to Nigeria and serve their terms in Nigerian jails. They think that they are in paradise outside there.”

He lamented that Nigerian drug traffickers were making things difficult for the country‘s foreign missions in establishing Nigeria as a leading African country and warned Nigerians to desist from carrying hard drugs to foreign lands as Nigeria’s intervention in such matters would not change the laws of the countries where they were caught."


Nah wah O!!! They know what they want. At least in foreign prisons they get to eat healthy three square meals a day, including bacon, sausages and eggs in the mornings, and of course fresh milk. Of course they are in paradise! Thats more than I can say to how prisoners are fed in Nigerian prisons.

I don't think that will be necessary in nigeria as lights are permanently turned off .

Isn't that a shame, in a country where the House Committee on Health chaired by Iyabo Obasanjo has just recently returned her share of N10m (excess money) that could have been used to better the lives of the masses, or budgetted for something else like electricity.

Let's all support The Earth Hour Initiative. This is an effort to raise awareness in energy conservation all over the world.

Today, Saturday March 29, 2008, Earth Hour has invited people around the world to turn off their lights for one hour – from 8:00pm to 9:00pm in their local time zone.

Spread the word.

"The House of Representatives Committee on Health returned the N10m it had collected from the Ministry of Health out of the N300m unspent 2007 budget allegedly shared by its officials in December, "

The point is in a country of suffering masses, no good health services, no good roads, no good schools, no electricity, no water, can you imagine how far N10million would go in the lives of the masses. And yet these members in the House of Reps Committee on Health chaired by Iyabo Obasanjo decided as usual to steal and share the money meant for the masses. When will these stop?

My friend told me not too long ago that Pastor Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God made an alter call at one of the Holy Ghost nights. He said any father present who's ever slept with his daughter must come out to the alter for repentance, cleansing and purification or such a father dies within 7days. Trust our people, nobody wants to die and we all know Pastor Adeboye's words is a decree to a believer. My friend told me I need to see the hundreds of men that trooped out to the alter to be cleansed.

That is the in-thing now in the country - all over the pages of newspapers and on radio/TV programmes you read and hear with utmost shock of fathers sleeping with their daughters. For whatever reason Ladies, would you ever want to or allow your dad sleep with you? And Men, would you sleep with your daughter? Or have you ever slept with your dad or daughter? Please these things happen, let's not pretend it doesn't. Just answer the question.

So what if the family decided you cannot leave with their kids. What do you do then?

donchichi:
I guess i should be little more discerning. i apologise,

Apology Accepted. Maybe you can answer the question now

Dear Linuxuser,

It's that easy for people to dupe you if you don't know exactly what you're doing - at least the basic rudiments. Like one needs a licence first and foremost - assuming that is coming from the government, one only pays the bribes and licence fees to get that done.

But in a situation where a contractor, simply because you're not versed in what you're doing says to you that you need a 'trans', a 'form', and a 'mer' to broadcast. You end up paying triple for one item.

What am saying is it would have been much easier if one has been in the broadcast business, that way you know exactly where you're going and how to quickly get there.

The Cross River state government has offered a reward of 45 million naira (about US$385,000) for anyone with information on the missing plane.

Govt seeks foreign assistance to find missing plane
| March 24, 2008

Govt. has asked for assistance from some foreign countries, including the US and the UK, to help finding the passenger plane, a Beechcraft 1900D operated by local charter airline Wings Aviation Limited, which went missing eight days ago during a domestic flight.

The Director of Search and Rescue at the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), said Nigeria has asked the countries to use their satellite systems to help find the plane.

He said NEMA had conducted a search of the entire area, where the plane was suspected to have gone down, with helicopters and sniffer dogs, without any result, hence the resort to the foreign countries.

The plane, with three crew members on aboard, was on a flight from the commercial city of Lagos to the Bebi Airstrip in South-east Cross River when it went missing.

The disappearance has been described as a national disgrace and embarrassment and the Presidency is said to have threatened aviation chiefs on the missing plane.

OVER TO YOU PEOPLE.

You really are thinking to start a radio station and you don't know what you need? Forget it.

Aje o.

And please reduce the BEER intake

donchichi, Of course I do care about all your responses, my silence is my way of giving everyone a chance to contribute, don't have to dominate the thread now, do I?

You've been married to your husband for so many years. Unfortunately he died. It is the tradition of his family that in the event of his death, you're passed on to his senior brother if he has any or his junior brother if he has no senior brother. So what will you do? Choose to remain in your husbands family but this time as the wife of one of his brothers, who incidentally might also be married? Or take your kids and run?

Nah di thing wey you go eat you dey find o, make you know meet the thing wey go eat you!!!

He would be. In time.

On a serious note, do you think the man is really guilty of the offences - his numerous killings? He being a junior officer in the Nigerian Army, and having to take unquestionable orders from a superior officer?

As nauseating as this may sound I think the man was only doing his duty assigned to him in the military.

I think a married man can have a girlfriend. Maybe what you should have asked is if a married man can have an affair.

You are married to her daughter. And you're attracted to her. Would you have an affair with her? Or have you done something like that in the past or present?
