Yes, zone 6 in Calabar. My 1st experience in police detention!!

assuming we have working legal system, will we have to resort to this court of public opinion?
Now there seems to be evidence of destruction, let the court do their work.


Okija_juju: ^^^

WOW!!

Her image maker is on fire.. Nice picture.. Even a judge would be moved to sentence Osuofia to death by this picture..
Yes!! That is what happens in the court of public opinion and that is the danger of one sided stories.

OILOFGLADNESS: OH MY GOD, I CANT HELP BUT SHADE TEARS, NIGERIA MY COUNTRY, PLEASE FORGET ABOUT BRIBE AND LET JUSTICE REIGN.


GOD MUST FIGHT FOR THIS HELPLESS WIDOW. OSUOFIA, I THOUGHT YOUR WICKEDNESS ENDS IN FILM ACTING, TO SHOW PEOPLE HOW WRONG IT IS TO BE WICKED , I NEVER NEW YOU ARE DISPLAYING YOUR REAL SELF.

WHO KNOWS WETHER HE ASKED THE LADY FOR FRIENDSHIP AND SHE REFUSED.

NOBODY HAVE RIGHT TO DESTROY A BUILDING BUILT BY ANOTHER PERSON, IT IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE,

INFACT IF JUSTICE WILL REIGN OSUOFIA, HVE TO ANSWER FOR MANY CHARGES AS A REUSLT OF ONE ACT "WICKEDNESS"

TUFIAKWA!
You sound typical of most Nigerians. We appeal to emotions rather than reasons. Your post even had to insinuate that the actor asked the woman for love. Na wa oooo.

In 1995 I was arrested with my dad and my cousin at the order of a widow. The accusation? That we destroyed her completed 6bedrooms and stole crops worth 100K(as at 1995?). On getting to said land, the police from zone 6 were amused to find that the land was in a thick bush with no evidence of house or crops.

Rather than jump on the emotion laden bandwagon, why don't we ask how Osoufia got the land title ?
Did Osoufia steal the land title from this woman's house or someone sold the land to him?
If Osoufia got the land title from a member of Ayogu's family, did the ministry of Lands know about the deal?

Except Osoufia engineered and was aware that the land title was stolen which will be proven by the court, he should held innocent till proven guilty. Both of them have the land title, what stops the journalist from going to the ministry of lands/housing to verify the true holder of the land title. The way this country is going, we'll soon kill ourselves because of one-sided emotion laden reports from amateur journalists
FamilyRe: Flogging Your Partners Younger Ones? : How Appropriate? by Curiouscity(m): 2:53pm On Oct 08, 2012
ajf: All these people coming here with 'feeding' and 'living under your roof' excuses amaze me. Report them to your partner and if there are no changes,live with it and if you can't, send them packing!! You married your partner and not her siblings...
Correcting them(even if by flogging) and sending them out of ur house, which is a lesser evil?
Do u think it was very well with the partner's sibling to start living with d in-law? U wield excessive
authority by sending d sibling into d street, s/he turns to a miscreant n come back to hunt U as a petty thief,
arm robber or the likes.
Agreed some people cane/beat to far for a corrective measure, but even in societies where flogging/spanking is against
the law, most adults are regretting. Check out the crime rate among children in such countries.
Does the 'No Caning' apply to teachers in Nigerian schools too? Did caning or any appropriate corporal punishment
make u aggressive or a failure?
PoliticsRe: Akwa Ibom At 25: Happy Silver Jubilee Celebration by Curiouscity(m): 9:39pm On Sep 26, 2012
joudini: @sandy409, xenophobia is as old as man on this earth. From time immemorial, human beings (and even animals) have always shown fear, distrust and often hostility to strangers, who do not belong to their milieu.

But the essential characteristic of a civilised man, as opposed to a savage is to learn to accomodate the other person's strangeness.

I am annang and l had my sec education in Akwa Ibom, FGC IK, and there was this mutual instinctive distrust especially between the annangs and Ibibios.

Your spouts, apart from highlighting you as an autistic dolt, goes to confirm these innate xenophobic tendencies that fuel ethnicism and statism in preference to nationalism.

You are allowed to be an ignorant drain on the society but for the sake of your children's future, don't force them to ignore the things you are afraid of accepting and understanding- there can't be peace in this country without mutual acceptance of peaceful cohabitation.
All these are 'parable' abi 'grammar' in the ears of a ethnic bigot and tribal champion like @sandy409.
He hates the leadership of Anaangman yet celebrates the presidency of Barack Obama in US(who is from a visibly minor group in US).
Well, continue to preach but I doubt if @sandy409 n his likes will understand!!

FamilyRe: The Most Suitable Job For A Married Woman? by Curiouscity(m): 6:08pm On Sep 17, 2012
She can be whatever she wants to be!! Her first and most rewarding job is being a best mom to her kids and best wify to the hubby.
It's personality that matters not her career. I had always dreamed of marrying a teacher until I met a lady teacher that was a female
version of "Agbero". Another female teacher who wouldn't even answer the daughter "Mummy what is 5+2?".After that I killed that dream!!
I worked in a bank with a "best mom", who tried her best to have lunch 2X a week with the hubby or kids. She wouldn't stay in the office beyond
6pm no matter what. She was very diligent and balances her Till as soon as possible.

So, @OP discover your woman and whatever career will be best for her!!

Why do we go too sentimental on small issues? What has being a college drop-out has to do with being an artiste/celebrity or being respectful? By your argument, Bill Gate, Mark Zuckerberg n numerous American artistes should not be called celebrities.
I stand in awe of your 'logic'

Nigerian youths are worse than our elders/elites in government house stealing our future.

Imagine the same crop of youths who abuse a sitting president(not that I like him) on a daily basis,
are quick to realize that an ex-president is an 'elder statesman' and should not be insulted. This
hypocrisy and sycophancy is what is keeping us where we are. In which country does a president(ex or present)
become a censor board to approve or disapprove what an artiste presents.

PoliticsRe: Things that can only be done in Nigeria by Curiouscity(m): 4:06pm On Aug 12, 2012
Kai Nigerian youths!!! Why do we hate the truth so much?? Why attack the poster? At least me and you know
that 85% of what he posted is true. He posted these so we can ask soul searching questions.
Yet some are here doing what has kept us this way for many years:=BIGOTRY.

Imagine this:
eyenCalabar: Only in Nigeria that a somebody would talk from the anus.

Only in Nigeria that a church member would like his Pastor to be poor while politicians are rich.

Only in Nigeria would somebody be speaking rubbish against his only religion.

Only in Nigeria that a Christian would like to die poor like this poster.
So for @eyenCalabar(eyenEkpo),life is all about amassing wealth irrespective of how. And a pastor or
whatever name some of them church people go by can do anything without being criticized or called to order.

I really weep for Nigeria if some of the youths I encounter on this blog are the 'leaders of tomorrow'.
We are too shallow!!
Christianity EtcRe: Bakare: Only Rich Men Should Rule by Curiouscity(m): 3:31pm On Aug 08, 2012
Poor Nigerians doing what they know best: Bigotry!!

I am No friend of the PDP style of government, and often criticize the presidency.
But these statements from Bakare does not sound like that of a nation builder.
He should attack the presidency not the person of GEJ and his background.
Bankole stole billions, is he of low estate? How about all the governors stealing their state funds,
NASS members getting their hands muddy with looting, are they all shoeless n clueless?

Bakare's statement is pure mockery on most of us with low backgrounds but have partnered with God's
grace to climb above mediocrity. I wish he remained an activist than go into active politics. He sounds
like any Nigerian politician; shouting and criticizing without offering any input for solution.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Dangote Truck Drivers With HND/BSc: No Respect For Nigerian Graduates by Curiouscity(m): 4:58pm On Aug 02, 2012
joskin:
Likewise, Dangote is not forcing anyone to apply. Do you know that with current situation in Naija, thousands of graduates will submit application for this horrible & terrible job
By specifying that they must be graduates makes it forcing. If he advertise for Drivers, then graduates apply which I'am sure they would, that is a different thing. My question again is; Which Nigerian University can I learned Truck Driving or interpretation of road signs?
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Dangote Truck Drivers With HND/BSc: No Respect For Nigerian Graduates by Curiouscity(m): 4:48pm On Aug 02, 2012

I think Dangote has this believe that if Nigerian graduates could drive london cabs,why cant they drive his own trailers too ?


Nigeria is worse than hell-fire. grin grin Anyways, Goodluck to prospective employees. cheesy
In London and in other western part of the world, do they make as condition for those drivers to be graduates?
You sound like you are very happy with the unemployment situation in this KUNTry. Maybe U are comfortable.
If the statement was he asked for a qualified drivers with good experience/training, and graduates went and he employed graduates, it would have shown he has the sympathy for graduates. But making a BSc/HND a prerequisite is a shame.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Dangote Truck Drivers With HND/BSc: No Respect For Nigerian Graduates by Curiouscity(m): 4:42pm On Aug 02, 2012
Goshen360: See pride in the hearts of some so called "graduates". Which kind book una don read wey another person never read before?I don't mean insult anyway. If you can apply for the job and be employed, why do you take it for now UNTIL YOU GET A BETTER OFFER TO A BETTER POSITION/FUTURE. A clear picture of pride and despising the days of little beginning. You can even get the job just to save/build capital to start you own business. It doesn't diminish anything from you neither does it subtract anything from your future. As some graduates dey do yanga, some graduates don apply same job chap-chap.
Guy, I support U most times, but on this one? No. A graduate can do any work s/he chooses. Most graduates even do manual jobs like masonry, carpentry. I even used my ND to work for 2yrs after my BSc(2-1). But for an employer of semi-skilled labor that does not require a degree to insist that a potential employee must be a graduate is a mockery of highest order. Which university does someone study 'Truck Driving' as a course? How does set skills obtained as a BSc/HND holder improve the duties of a truck driver?
If a truck driver MUST be a graduate, what hope do we have for people who attend driving school for such purposes? How about people who learned other trades or have City&Guild?
My point is he should't have made that a condition for employment. Or maybe, it is just his HR manager that is being psychopathic.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Dangote Truck Drivers With HND/BSc: No Respect For Nigerian Graduates by Curiouscity(m): 4:30pm On Aug 02, 2012
I just searched to confirm that Dangote is a graduate only to notice he attended Al-Azhar University, Cairo. Can this be true? Or he just lived in Cairo for few years, came back to Nigeria to claim he schooled there? If he is a graduate, he will know the value and that NO University in Nigeria offers truck driving as a course.
Well, I don't blame him. Come October, FG will give him the highest title of the land for 'mocking' Nigerian graduates.
FamilyRe: Minor Acts That Cause Damage In Marriages. by Curiouscity(m):

FamilyRe: Should A Pregnant Woman Go Clubbing? by Curiouscity(m): 4:05pm On Jul 27, 2012
As a human being, U have all the right to club.

But not all things that are lawful are worth doing. The problem with so-called 'modern Nigerian'(men n women)is that we want to eat our cake and still have it. At any point in time, we still want to have all irrespective of level n status.
That is why a marriage man at 40-50s still stalk a 18-21 secondary sch girl, a married women(even a mother) leaves her home to look for younger gigolos n sugar daddies.
Now U want to go clubbing, meaning that U are yet to realize that your levels have changed as a married pregnant women.
Have U ever heard of house party? Even if U don't want your hubby to attend d house party with U, but then U can select those who attend and the activities. Gives U a level of respect n shows high levels of responsibility even while having ya fun.

As a married person, if U still crave for fun without ur hubby, U need some self re-examination wrt ur marriage.
CultureRe: Miss Nigeria Cultural Pageant In Miami (Pics) by Curiouscity(m): 11:30pm On Jul 25, 2012
Truly, this is a reflection of most Nigerian girls in North America(USA n Canada). About 70% of Nigerian girls in these 2 countries are naturally "not too pageantry"(If I say 'ugly' I invoke curses though that will be more fitting). In addition to this 'woowooness', they have highest level of arrogance and hatred for anything African.

Well, I thank God the beauty of the remaining 30% seems to cover for the "Royal Woowoonesses". Some really deserve the name AKATA though that name shouldn't be applied to all.
FamilyRe: Is This A Trap? Please Help! by Curiouscity(op): 5:48pm On Jul 23, 2012
Efemena_xy: Hmmm....something doesn't add up here.

First of all, how come you're so close to a married woman? To the extent she spills it all to you?

Secondly, I think her hubby is a lot smarter than you give him credit for. Once a guy suspects his wifey of cheating, it's hard for him to let go of the thought. I don't know why, I just think it's the way you guys are wired up. tongue Anyway, that man is no fool and he's probably been keeping the tabs on his wife, is aware she's had her lengthy conversations with you and is "curious" to see who this trespasser is. Do not undermine the wrath of a jealous husband. He's probably got a cocked pistol / cutlass awaiting you.

Finally, if the relationship between you and his wife is as innocent as you make it to be, can you honestly play back the conversations you've had with her, to her husband and your fiancée? Can you do what you've been doing with her in the open for all to see?

My advice: Keep well away from that woman and her problems. Break off all links with her, block her number from ringing you up, etc and all should be well.
@Efemena_xy, lol. So U mean it is now a crime to have a 'mere friend', a neighbor, a colleague, friend of a friend, who got married? A philosopher once said "Man know thyself". So please don't jump to accuse any man or defend any woman.
unfortunately, I don't save calls. But if U can comprehend my write-up well, U could see where I wrote that I am rethinking my vacation to that city. Meaning, I am not in any bit interested to see her.
Talking about playing the call to my fiancee or her hubby, my fiancee has a copy of the mail I replied to her in Feb when she first made her advances. So that is not a big deal. Showing her husband such a mail will mean
sending her out of her marital home. The fact is she came in d form of seeking advice which I gave her sincerely.
Cutting contact with her is ideal which I have already started.

Yet U guys forget the part I asked 'is this what marriage is in today's Nigeria?'

FamilyIs This A Trap? Please Help! by Curiouscity(op): 3:33pm On Jul 23, 2012
She is married and seriously cheating on the hubby. She called me in February and started making
overtures towards me. I told her "No", but we still talk as mere friends. 2 months ago, she called at
about 10:30pm to complain that she is having issues with the husband. I asked what the matter was,
she told me that the hubby is accusing her of cheating when she knew the husband is cheating too.
I spoke at length with her, advising her to apologize to the man and give peace a chance,after all
they are both cheats. I spoke with the man that night too. The man sounded reasonable and very ready
for peace. That that Madam slept in her 'sugardaddy's house. I warned her not to talk to me again if
she doesn't settle issues with her hubby. A week latter, she called to tell me that everything is fine.
They are back and 'Happy?' with each other.

Last weekend, she called and gave the phone to the husband who thanked and praised me for the part I played
in settling their fracas(She told the hubby I am her 'uncle'). The husband is asking me to visit them as soon
as I go to their city(which is also mine). I'm due for holidays in 2 weeks time. I accepted to visit them. I am sure
the husband told her about my accepting to visit. This afternoon I had a call from her renewing her desire to
sleep with me. She is even started visiting my sister and my fiancee in order to prepare her way to access me easily.

Is this a trap(setup) by this couple or just and act of desperado/nymphomaniac by this lady? I'm rethinking my holidays in
my city. I know most married ladies are sane, but is this what marriage is in today's Nigeria?
