Dear All,


My country people please understand the UK DOES NOT WANT YOU...

I hope that this write up can dissuade many of you to look away from the UK or the EU.
Leave them alone.
I can't help but agree with you on this after my recent experience at the UK embassy just this week. I applied for a visiting visa to go on vacation and also attend a close family function and was refused because according to them they were not convinced I would return after my visit.
Now what made this both amusing and at the same time irritating is the fact that I have been to the UK before. I took a professional course there a few years ago and returned home. Since then I have travelled to France, Holland and the US and returned. Even the passport I applied with has the US 2yr multiple entry visa on it. So, if I wanted to run away wouldn't I have used that to do so?

I doubt that the visa officer checked any of my accompanying documents. My employment status didn't matter, and neither did my marital status or travel history. On top of that, I was even denied the opportunity to appeal. The whole thing seemed like a bad joke.

Me, I'm done with them o. There are many more places to visit for business and pleasure.

so you put your life and that of your family in danger because of an hediot.If you had lost your wife or daughter in the process or made any of them physically challenged will the road rage have been worth IT?

I experienced similar occurrence but to pacify my anger I overtook the driver and then threw pure water directly on his face.he didn't expect that a woman can be that aggressive.unfortunately for him,he didn't wind up and the look of fury and frustrations from his face gave me the feeling of sweet revenge grin
My sister, what actually pissed me off that day was the fact that the guy put my family in danger when he ran us off the road. angry And then I went and put them in more danger in my rage. grin My wife was calling my name the whole time, but I didn't hear her. Never again though. But some Lagos drivers can be so annoying.

I was once in a situation like this once between Cement and Ikeja Along one Sunday morning in 2011. This guy ran me off the road and almost into a ditch because he was trying to avoid running into a pothole at full speed. He slowed down when he saw what he did but didn't even have the decency to apologize. He just drove off. I was so raging mad that I pulled back onto the road and chased after him. I pulled up next to him just before Ikeja along and swerved like I was going to ram into him. He swerved away almost losing control, then finally pulled up some meters ahead. He now alighted waving a koboko menacingly. I parked and beckoned on him to come closer if he dared but dude got into his car and drove off. I was so pissed.

Sad part of the story, we both had our wives and kids in the car. When I had calmed down, I regretted my road rage and apologized to my wife and little girl. Since then, never again. I just take a deep breath and cuss you out. But no stupid stunts.

TV/MoviesRe: Lauretta Onochie Speaks On Big Brother Naija And The Adult Content by dabossman(m): 10:04pm On Feb 19, 2018

I agree. There is just something about this BBN that is amiss. Some of the youths are even calling for censure. When you tell people, there is a serpent in that pit, they are likely going to take precaution. That applies to the internet! In the case of BBN the message is - there is a dove in that cage. The 'kids' go there only to find that the so called dove is a serpent! That is the issue! NBC has stopped several things that dont even come close to BBN in terms of vile and vanity! That is why I dont get it. But I may be wrong. There are experts in these things.
Actually, it is my field.There is a difference between free-to-air terrestrial channels and pay/cable TV. NBC will readily ban unsavory content on free-to-air channels like AIT, LTV, Channels etc because it is suplied to homes freely. All you need is an antenna. Cable/Pay TV is different. You used your money to buy it by choice. It is not exactly freely available. You bought a decoder and subscribed. In other words, you used your hand to bring the wahala into your home. There are many channels on DSTV that broadcast stuff worse than BBN. The onus is on you to monitor what your wards watch and these platforms have parental control features. When the NBC bans songs, they are still aired on MTV, Trace, Hip Hop TV and so on cable. They are two different scenarios. The only censorship requirement is to put an are limit. BBNclearly states it is for 18+.

And it's not true that BBN is a dove. This show has been with us for more than 15 years since the first BBA. Most people know what it is about. They are not ignorant about it.

I agree with you. But should we not care a bit about the problems plaguing youth in our society? Should we think about our children alone?
Yes, we should care about the problems plaguing the youths, but you don't do that by issuing draconian decrees and taking away the power of making the right decisions by choice, an informed choice if I may say. Teenagers are especially rebellious when you try to force things down their throat. A better approach is to educate them about the positives and negatives of every situation.

If we start to ban, then we will ban the Internet itself so that we can stop our youths from viewing pornography and getting involved in "yahoo-yahoo", and wasting their life away on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. We would also need to ban Super Sport so that our youths will stop wasting money on sports betting like Nairabet, BetNaija and so on. Are you getting my drift? I'm sure that would affect you too.

The number one way to raise responsible youths is proper parenting. We as parents are mostly guilty of not doing enough, me inclusive. We get so caught up in the hustle to make ends meet and provide for these children that we are not giving them the necessary guidance they need. The family is the smallest individual unit in every society. When we correct the anomalies in the family, we will have better, responsible children and youths.

We have also not paid attention to our schools. Are our kids getting the right kind of education that will help them make better choices? We have to correct the problem from the foundation.

The 'show' is not only on DsTV. The people behind it know that the sinister message will ultimately land in the social media space. The kids are already talking about it in schools this morning, even though their parents stopped them from watching it on DSTV. The kids are seeing the porn not on dstv but on so many channels in the social media space including NL.
It is still a parent's duty to monitor or limit what their kids do in the social media space. There is a lot of porn on social media and the internet already, raw porn much worse than BBN. If your child shouldn't be seeing such then don't give them an internet-enabled smartphone or computer. Or at least find out if you can block age-inappropriate content on these platforms on their gadgets. I'm a parent too and that is my duty, not DsTV's or the government.

what about olamide's science student?
Behold your answer.

greenhulk:
She didn't stop Olamide's science student video, the song was only banned on local radio and its not the first time we are seeing this. When video drops it will be banging on Trace naija and every other music channel on cable. And big brother naija does not broadcast on local channels so they have no power to ban it.
TV/MoviesRe: Lauretta Onochie Speaks On Big Brother Naija And The Adult Content by dabossman(m): 9:21am On Feb 19, 2018
The bitter truth even though I'm not a fan of the show. There are so many other channels to choose from on DsTV and GoTV. Exercise your power of choice. No one is being forced to watch BBN.

You may be right.

But he could have taken out Chris Smalling or Lindelof if that is the case.

A bus parker takes out a striker and brings in a defender.
I hope Mourinho improves his tactics in the champions league.

You don't defeat big teams by sitting back. It's risky.
I'm guessing you're not familiar with the concept of taking out a player who had a man of the match performance in the closing stages so he can get a standing ovation from the fans.

Mourinho killed two birds with one stone.Applause for Lukaku, applause for the returning Bailly. Watch and learn son. grin

szen:
And what happens when he comes up against a team that doesn't leave any spaces ? What then?
That's why you need creative players who can take on players and draw defenders out of position. That is one of the things we lack and why we struggle to score. Most times we pass the ball around in front of the opposition goal with little penetration. The only player we have now that tried to take on defenders, run at them and dribble is Martial, and even he is inconsistent. The just is still out on Sanchez in this regard.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Huddersfield Town Vs Manchester United : FA Cup (0 - 2) - Live by dabossman(m): 7:50pm On Feb 17, 2018
Again, play the ball into space for Lukaku to run onto, his more likely to score.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Huddersfield Town Vs Manchester United : FA Cup (0 - 2) - Live by dabossman(m): 6:39pm On Feb 17, 2018
I have always said that this is how Lukaku likes to be serviced. Play the ball into space for him to run onto the ball. Playing to feet for Lukaku in a crowded defence is difficult for him because his touch is heavy. But through balls through the channel to take on the last man and keeper works for him.

Monaco played Lyon two days ago. They played the whole of second half with a man down. They scored their winning goal in the 88 minutes.
Yes, that is football. Cameroon defeated defending World Cup champions Argentina with 10 men at Italia 90. Nothing new. That doesn't change the fact that being a man down gives a numerical advantage to the other team. Some will use it, and some will not be able to due to the resilience of the opponent.

My point though is about the hypocrisy of those who will insult their own national team who got to the finals of a continental event and lost badly, but will be soft on the European clubs they support when the same scenario occurs.
