I still remember that day. Siasia was the first to approach him. He immediately put his hand to his head as he beckoned to the sidelines for help. It was a sad day despite the victory. Losing the qualification ticket to Cameroon at the end of the qualifiers made it worse. Hhm, continue to rest in perfect peace Sam. |
And I'm guessing someone gets paid to carry out research and write this unnecessary responses to attacks from every Tom, Di.ck and Harry who tackle the Presidency? Can't the Presidency just focus on the more serious issues at hand instead of flexing muscles with every single critic? And then they quoted Wikileaks! Like seriously? Even went as far as saying El-Rufai lied about the Turai cabal for his own interest. Hello!!! GEJ is the ultimate beneficiary of the "fight" against the "phantom" Turai cabal! So maybe GEJ and El-Rufai were in it together then. So El-Rufai is a liar! Is that breaking news? Is GEJ, Abati and the rest of their media team not filled with the same kind? Or who lied to us that Patience was in good health and not ill in a German hospital? El-Rufai? Abeg, work at fulfilling your election promises. We are not interested in all this roforofo fight. |

DMainMan: Dont u guys understand me ni.Hhm, tori don dey change. Now it is "we were relegated but technically we've not played in the lower division." I hear you. |
chronique: She's damn right! Sometimes,when God wants to speak,He uses anybody He likes. Afterall,He used a horse to speak to Balaam in the bible. I don't watch BBA and I've never been a fan of it. If you wanna produce pornography for private consumption,that's your headache. But providing it for public consumption is quite disturbing. Sometimes,when I walk into a public cafe and I see adults and teens watching porn in public,I feel disgusted. It's a turn off to some pple. Not everybody finds it cool seeing such in public. Sex is something that should be done discreetly behind closed doors;not in the public glare. Some pple find it strange when they go through my phones and do not see porn clips/pictures. This is not about spirituality or being holy;it's just about morals and values. And like she said,if it was packaged by a Nigerian,we all know it would never see the light of day as a lot of pple would bad mouth it. If we won't take it from within,why should we accept it from outside? |

If we won't take it from within,why should we accept it from outside?My dear, your comments shows that she is wrong, not right. If you dont watch it, I cant stand it and several others think it is crap, then how can people generalize and say that 150 million plus Nigerians are hypocrites? We might as well conclude that Nigerians are terrorist because of BH. We might as well agree with the £3000 visa bond since Nigerians are general flight risks. Lets also generally agree that we are all fraudsters too. Until I see stats that prove that more Nigerians watch BBA than those who dont like you, she is talking trash. |
collynzo2: There is additional money people pay to get the shower scenes of BBA and Nigerians are the highest subscribers. Hypocrites.Of course Nigerians would always be the highest subscribers. The population of Lagos alone would dwarf the total population of several countries. Sorry, but I dont see your point. Besides, do you know how many millions of Nigerians cant afford Dstv? |
Until she can provide me with stats that prove that more than 60% of Nigerians subscribe to Dstv because of BBA, she is blowing hot air. Naija people subscribe to Dstv mainly because of AfricaMagic and Supersports. That some peeps enjoy BBA doesnt make us all hypocrites. Besides, if her movie is such a hit, let her get the more liberal Americans to buy it now. Abi na by force to break into Naija market? |
adeokunade: How can we recognise the stolen hair?Check the NAFDAC number. You can also scratch the silver foil and send the serial number under preceded by the code VEN to 32145 |
okeke2: you too get a life STOP PRETENDING JOHNATAN IS A GOOD PRESIDENT CAN U COMPARE HIM TO OBAMA OR EVEN FORMER SA PRESIDENT NELSON MANDELAEr, sorry no vex o, but do people still say "peace out suckers" in 2013? Sounds very much like something Vanilla Ice would say. |
misskenny: Paying to visit 2 one of d governors in d states is normal.And you seriously posted this 'thing' twice. :p |
joshyjags: nawa oooooh, na bully dem bully am ehhhhh, chai naija b d best, wch kind pikin for naija go go hang en sef sey dem yab amWhat are you talking about? I know a kid who tried to kill himself by drinking a mixture of cement and water in boarding school because seniors were making his life a living hell because he was chubby. Don't say it can't happen in Naija abeg. |
ckkris: Because when Zik won election to become Premier of Western Nigeria, Awolowo chased him out of the West, to return to Onitsha, and be Premier of Eastern Region. Since then, ONE NIGERIA was aborted before Independence in 1960.And even if your assertion were correct, which with all due respect I doubt, how many years has it been since 1960, and how many governments have we had since then, democratic and otherwise. Next we'll blame the British. Truth is selfish agendas are at the root of the problem. |
Manlado: Our problem is predicated on a faulty constitution.And may the good Lord bless you. This has always been my take on that misnomer we call "State of Origin." Every form you want to fill in this country, they will ask "state of origin?". To register your SIM card, register your child in school, fill a medical form, even tax form, they will ask "state of origin?" Please what is the essence of such information? What has my state of origin got to do with my sim card? Do I pay taxes to my state of origin when I was born in Lagos, and have lived there most of my life? How does state of origin affect my medical records? Why can't an Hausa or Ibo man be considered a Lagosian if he was born in Lagos and has lived there forever? Why can't a Yoruba boy in Kaduna claim that state as his home state? Funny enough, our International Passport doesn't carry "State of Origin", but "place of Birth. That should tell us what is more important and where you origin truly is |
And the tribal Nairaland war rages on. Let me see if this one will last longer than the 100-page Nigeria vs Uruguay thread. If it doesn't then football must truly unite us. Mukina can you open the Nigeria vs South Africa thread 7 days early? May it can douse this tension. But let me siddon look first. Hhm, madam please serve me a plate of amala and ewedu, plus a plate of isi ewu. Looks like its gonna be a long day. |
KenGali: Your comments are laughable, Anambra state is not a country, United States is a Country. Lagos State cannot make any such communication to United States outside the purview of the Federal Government of Nigeria. Education these days must be really lacking. Your analogy is simply null.And he misses the entire point. What is the essence of filling in "State of Origin" in every official and unofficial document if such a state can't even respond to your need in distress. Be it a country or a state, shouldn't your own be concerned about you? Is that not why we are in the mess we are in? Leaders who do not care about the governed? If Anambra state was indeed informed that their indigenes were in a rehab facility and needed re-integration with their families, would it have been out of place for the relevant agencies in their state to have responded promptly? |
While I do not support the dumping of fellow Nigerian citizens on some bridge in the dead of night, I think the Anambra State government cannot be excused in this matter if they were indeed briefed. If a government is informed that some of its indigenes are destitute or in distress and may need to be re-integrated with their families back home, I think it is the duty of such government to even champion and make arrangements on how their own "sons" will return home safely. I cannot imagine that the US embassy would be informed that an American citizen is destitute or mentally challenged and roaming the streets of Lagos, and then they will be waiting for the Lagos State government to inform them on when such a citizen can be taken home and by what means. They would immediately show up to pick up their own, book him a flight and return him home. I would like to know if the Anambra Liason Office that responded to the LASG letter even bothered to visit the rehab facility to identify their own who are in distress, and if they even bothered to ensure that their indigenes are treated fairly. This goes to show how much our governments across all tiers care about us. What then is the essence of the ignominous "State of Origin" if one's state cannot even respond with promptness and concern when its indigene needs its help. Naija I hail thee. |
If it was that useless Gervinho that has won nothing in how many years that was on this list, many would be congratulating him now. Especially bin gbagbo. |
Richfella: Lol, the fact that you had to call Knorr 'Knorr Cube Maggi' should tell you a lot. It's as taboo as calling 'Pepsi' 'Coke'. The owners of the Knorr brand will definitely not be happy with you right nowLol at the bolded. I remember a friend who went to the UK came back and said UK Fanta tastes better than Naija. Poured both in different glasses and all of a sudden the dude couldn't tell the difference. Newest one I heard recently is foreign KFC tastes better than Naija KFC. Tasted it first in the UK then Naija. Can't tell the difference o. Sometimes, it's all in the mind. |
OP, please correct the title of this thread. You are committing brand suicide. There is nothing like "Knorr Cube Maggi". Maggi is a brand name for Nestle's seasoning cube while Knorr is Cadbury's brand. Abeg o! |
omodapson: The guy no make sense at all. He no meet the basic use of language which is 'communication'.Actually made sense the first time I watched it. Yes, he could have communicated in much simpler terms, but if you listen dispassionately without laughing or getting irritated, he does make complete sense. Except of course for terms like higi haga and some others. |
zuggy: Its only in this clime we celebrate people like this.I kinda beg to disagree. Americans idolize a lot of talentless no-brain celebrities like Kim Kardashian. At least Hon. Patrick has some comedic value and actually makes a lot of sense if you take him on, on his twitter handle. |
naptu2: I have once lived in a house in which we hung our clothes on a rack which we placed in a corridor within the house. There was no space outside to hang the clothes (besides, we didn't want thieves to steal our clothes). It is possible if you want to do it.Thank you o naptu2. I have a small clothe rack that I even put on my balcony. You can never see it from the outside because it is not as high as the concrete 'railings'. With hangers I can spread a lot on it. The thought of dangling it over the railings for the whole world to see just gives me the creeps. |
niggadee: lmao poverty and backwards my dog expenses costs we feed your whole family's for the next 2 years. i came from wealthy political family's background that inherited a lots of fortuneWhat is this one on about? Where did I question your family's purported wealth? SMH. Sadly that wealth couldn't even buy you a proper education judging by your grammar. Please take care of your rabied dog. My family and I are just fine. |
pro01: And what about landlords who do not and cannot provide clothes lines at the back of the house due to limited space and whatnot? What should the tenants do?So because some greedy landlord did not put what is at best a basic amenity in his house the environment should suffer. Okay then let all those whose houses dont have a simple pit laterines start dumping theis sh*t on the street too. And if your apartment is too small to take all your stuff, please feel free to keep some out in the open, maybe on parked cars on the street. I wonder how much space one needs to spread clothes anyway? A football field? You dont have to be 'privileged' to be neat. Poverty does not equate to being dirty or untidy. |
duni04: Wots educated about that? sealing off my house because of clothes? Do you know that these area boys, touts and local governmen pple will use this s-tupid reasoning of the commissioner to start extorting people?The question you should be asking is 'will touts extort you if you simply do what is sensibly right?' How hard is it to run a clothline at the back of your house, away from public view? Poverty doesn't equate to squalor and tardiness. I hope you know that? |
lovetterrison: Obsessed with western culture |
lovetterrison: Obsessed with western cultureDon't mind that dolo. My late semi-illiterate grandfather never allowed his tenants to spread clothes on the balcony railings of his house in Mushin of all places as far back as the 70's and 80's. He provided clothlines at the back of the house. Its a shame that "educated" people on Nairaland will even be excusing this dirty practice. |
Bigcake: Misplaced priorities. How will dat put food on d table for the common man?Duh! Is the ministry for the environment now responsible for providing food? They are doing their job. Direct your beef to the relevant agency. Meanwhile, Iya Sukura quick go comot that ur catapult from main road o. I can't shout o! |
A real close call, but finally we made it. Hope SA brings us more luck. |
