PoliticsRe: Wole Soyinka’s Writes On Sexual Offences Bill by Curvinus(m): 6:22pm On Jun 12, 2015
Rather than seeking to claim moral high ground and throwing tantrums from a safe distance, I suggest Soyinka and all others dismayed by that law go to court to seek interpretation of the act as to whether it is consistent with the letters of the law.

I say this because public odium alone has never been koown to be very effective in causing any change in this country.
PoliticsRe: Rejoinder- "Twelve Days In Office And Buhari's Achievements". by Curvinus(m): 11:07am On Jun 12, 2015
Except Buhari magically rubs his buths together to produce some gold shillings with which to his administration, I don't really see much changing anytime soon.

As Abubakar Rimi once said while he was being sentenced to jail, by Buhari's military tribunal, there will be three judgements after this: judgment by God: judgment by the people and judgment by posterity.

RomanceRe: How Do The Successful Combat A Lonely Lovelife? by Curvinus(m): 11:10pm On Jun 07, 2015
Story of another self obsessed little man. How can you say you're successful, got all you want, yet you're lonely and can't find love? Haba! For this Naija where almost all what the girls need to see is the slightest hint of comfort and they label you as a potential Mr. Right?

Besides who do you think youre kidding? Successful people have always been known to have the ability to cherry picking the best of the bunch, and leave out the rotters for other average joes to drool and oggle over them.

So how can a successful man now see the kind of woman he actually fancies, cute, sweet, brainy and young and still not be able to impress or seduce her with either his wealth or charisma?

And don't tell us you had to hussle because the basic instinct in every man after survival is sex aka love and your subconscious is always in pursuit of this regardless of how you think you feel about this.

Either tell the truth the way it is or admit you like to wallow in self pity. This may also be a windup to get people talking about a selfing indulging man who thinks the world should revolve around him.

PoliticsRe: Senate Makes 11 Years The Legal Age To Have Sex In Nigeria by Curvinus(m): 10:05pm On Jun 04, 2015
The headlind is misleading. Article says life sentence for having carnal knowledge or raping a girl below 11 years. The bill does not seek to repeal other existing acts which stipulate various other punishments for sex offenders.

Try reading the article again or have somebody read it to you slowly please.
CareerRe: It's Time To Resign! by Curvinus(m): 7:02am On Jun 04, 2015
From certainty to uncertainty. Sometimes, folks could just be seeking some excitement and then they take out their frustration on their job. Perhaps you should take a break to think through this, but then half a million a month is enough to start up a decent biz. Goodluck.
PoliticsRe: Some Immediate Past Ministers Must Go To Prison, Gbagi Tells Buhari by Curvinus(m):
Over 100 trillion? Chei? This is kleptomania of the worst order.

Its exactly what happens when you have so many loopholes in a given system with weak institutions.

The Area Council Chiefs in the FCT for instance are busy collecting tenement rates and what have you but won't even bother to fix the numerous dilapidated roads leading into most of the estates.

The worst part of it is these council chiefs and their agents pay peanuts ranging between 20k and 30k to the workers who are meant to trek all over the place to collect the money while these fat cows sit in the office and allocate millions to themselves for doing precisely nothing.


As for the Ministers, don't even get me started on that greedy basta*d who couldn't make a speech without praising an ex-president. That Niga*s greed is one i've never been able to grasp at all .

While I'm happy about Femi Adesina's ascendancy to the topmost job a journalist could ever aspire to achieve in his career, I hope The Sun newspaper won't throw objectivlty to the wind though with more of these jaundiced and highly patronizing article.

Ogun is doing its best to attain the uneviable status of a murder sanctuary and a theatre of thd absurd.

Its either they have lots of jourmalists in there with an eye for human angle stories or they are just pretty much addicted to the dark side of this world
PoliticsRe: Why Buhari Didn’t Make Assets Public – Aides by Curvinus(m): 7:33am On Jun 01, 2015
There is little point in playing the ostrich here as majority of Nigerians who voted the APC into power want Buhari and Osinbajo's assets declared publicly.

It is good thing he has declared before the ethics bureau.They must now go a step further, as a matter of integrity, to publish same before the world. Nigerians would want to know how stupendously wealthy, how degradingly poor or how decidedly average Buhari and his vice are for the sake of posterity. After all, we are trying to put an end to the culture of impunity.
This is very important and they shouldn't mess with it.

They sought equity all along and now they must go with clean hands.
PoliticsRe: God Chose Buhari To Fulfill Plans For Nigeria- V.P Osinbajo by Curvinus(m): 9:57pm On May 30, 2015
Osibanjo leave God out of this and stop acting like you are in a religious gathering. Stop preaching to us as we don't see any sense in whipping up unnecessary religious sentiments. God as we all know made everything and they are good in his eyes. So don't even try to hoodwink gullible folks into believing God would bend his perfect laws to suit a man we all know about his antecedents.
PoliticsRe: Boko Haram Attacks Will Be Over Soon, Says Buhari. by Curvinus(m): 9:11pm On May 30, 2015
Ah ah now, we alredy know they are cowardly murderers as they have been described countless of times by every man and his dog. Just call them to order and have them know their mission's been fulfilled. Simple!

So the barren North as we have known it all along when it comes to crude oil is now being described all of a sudden as oil rich nation's northeast despite there being no concrete evidence of oil deposit in commercial quantities.

Change has really come.
PoliticsRe: Borno Governor Attacks Jonathan, Seeks Amnesty For Boko Haram by Curvinus(m):
It will be our last point of order if we grant Amnesty to Shekau and his Boko haram murdering squad.

They are terrorists and must be tried under the terrorism act or we might as well grant amnesty to all of the criminals, paedophiles and murderers locked away behind bars.

PoliticsRe: List Of The Things Buhari Promised Nigerians - Vanguard by Curvinus(m):
Flets:
And all of a sudden

It doesn't matter that someone condemned the attack of the military on Bokoharam

It doesn't matter that someone described an attack on Bokoharam as an attack on the north

It doesn't matter that someone urged muslims to vote only muslims in a secullar country like Nigeria

It doesn't matter that someone committed to the spread of sharia across the country (the feasibility is a diff topic)

It doesn't matter that someone instigated the death of over 1000 Nigerians just because he lost an election in 2011

It doesn't matter that someone enacted retroactive laws to deal with a select set of people

It doesn't matter anymore that someone ended democracy with the barrel of a gun to assume office

Does it really not matter anymore..... Time shall tell.

We might have just killed morality and damned our sensibilities to the HOPE of a better Nigeria.

And please don't tell me he is my president for the next 4 or 8 Years cos I know that already and that is not the thrust of my thought process.

In sane societies, these would matter. Even if he wins such elections, he would be approached with so much consciousness and carefulness but not with all open arms because the words of a man defines a man and people hardly change.

Just before you scream Sai Baba..... Something must be wrong with the black race.
As a famed author wrote in yesterday's edition of the Vanguard newspaper in a piece tittled, "Triumphalism.." the 2015 election, no matter how you look at it, was a struggle for the spoils of war by the allies of the defeated Biafra. That explains why despite all of these blunders being out there in the public domain, these allies still threw their weight massively behind a well known despotic element.


I'm not making out GEJ to be saint here but the way and manner he was maligned and blackmailed for his nonchalance or perceived connivance in some of the problems that dotted the nation's landscape is a testimony to the fact he was literally turned into a punching bag for every man his dog, not just to vent their spleen but for other alterior motives as well.

Anyway, the deed's been done we are now trying to move on. But I'm still hoping against hope though that these triumphant allies would at least for a moment cast aside ethnic and religious considerations, take up the gauntlet and hold Buhari to his words, and not explain away his failings as was the case with their well known disingenousness at the polls.
