What is realme? Never seen, read or heard about this anywhere else.

If you are into Smartphones,you would have..

Thats flexibility and liberalism

From the Evolutionary POV, only animals that are easily flexible enough to adapt to new things have the edge to survive over others

You dont have to always be rigid in your opinions


Its cool to change stance when you make a mistake in the past

Nice one, Reno

If you don't stand for something,you stand for nothing..

A two way,anywhere belle face Parrot is your standard bearer?

Tueh!

In broad daylight, a guilt free mind does not run.


The police officers must pay for damages oo otherwise, wahala go plenty o

A guilt free mind?

A random,unmarked car starts chasing you without provocation and you should not attempt to run?

Na Kidnappers go jam you next..

Easier said than done...

I will take it in bad light too though if my partner doesn't "trust" me. And goes certain levels to verify certain things. Except maybe I had given the impression not to be trusted of course.

I am just putting myself in those shoes. And thinking about it I won't find it funny one bit!

Not finding it funny one bit,is whole lot easier than a man training another man's child for 25 years.

Women never take accountability for anything.

If a man feels strongly about DNA tests,he should go ahead and do it..

No Ho,e should gaslight him into thinking his actions are wrong..

Stop hating ... N2.4b is $1.6m. Two house would each be 800$k each.

The only reason these houses would be 2.4B would be the location..
If you like convert it to Pounds.

I now understand why my friend Obiora refuse to travel for Christmas and new year.

I also understand why Peter Obi celebrated Christmas with his family in Lagos and planning to be in Lagos for crossover.

You should stay laughing, don't ever stop.

What about men who overlook good girls for those with more prominent features?

Create a thread about that and stop derailing the topic.

Who cares if it goes extinct...?

I know I don't!

What makes you think you are of more importance to the planet than any other specie?
You think nature would give a hoot if you and your species go extinct?

Maitunbi:
So is it constructive?

Does it have to be one or the other?

You haven't answered the question,what exactly is destructive about it?

Damian911:
Shut the Bleep up. You caused this shitty mess we're in today and still have the audacity to talk rubbish. Don't add to my anger this afternoon please

How exactly did someone who grew up in the 80s cause the problem in Nigeria?

How many of your previous Leaders grew up in the 80s?

Like he said the only thing you know is how to sit down on your butts and throw blames..

Your mates in Kenya are leading revolutions and overthrowing governments..

Maitunbi:
By being destructive?

What exactly is destructive about a Kid chewing on a pen cover or marking his eraser?

phadul:
Just for them to be regarded as literates thinking the northerners especially the Muslims don't know what they are doing! In summary the tax is good for development that is certain but it is also certain the tax extracted will never benefit the masses it will disappear just like other revenues without accountability. So it's better to allow us be rather than inflict more hardship reducing the little we earn

Hold your leaders to account..

Moreover you are 10X more likely to misuse and squander money you didn't exactly work for..

So, get off your butts and stop being parasites..

You destroy alcoholic drinks but have no qualms sharing VAT from same..

The Bill will be passed and monkeys won't continue to work whilst some lazy Baboon up north waits squander monthly subvention from VATs he never contributed to..

Softmirror:
Do you have any Bible verse to back up your claim. The Imam has refered to the Quran.

It is like saying Jesus is gay just because he is not married and always surrounded by 12 men?

Did Muhammad not marry a 9 year old?

What does that make him?

A paedophile..

Jesus had 12 male Disciples and it makes him gay?

You that went to an all male School, hope your anu,s have recovered from the constant assault?

correctyourself:
The guy did not do well because at a point the lady wants them to be together and the guy refused! I think rhe story is more than what you wrote here.

The guy was not mature in handling this issue because students in UK also work while schooling the authority encouraged them to do so, lazy guy waiting for the Lady to pay all that money, contract can be amended base on situations. Black man's mentality of entitlement

We need to hear the Lady's side of the story!

A Contract is a contract Ogbeni..

It is a contract because it defines the rule of engagement..

If it is to be changed then it requires the two parties to come to an agreement..

What is the need for a contract,if the likes of you can wake up and decides to unilaterally not honour it?

Any Seller with Redmi Note 10 Pro battery here?

With this record, it is possible we are not up to 200M people in Nigeria

How does the data correlate to not being upto 200M?

I wonder how it sounds when two dicks clunk like swords and ball sacs rub against each other with tiny sparks like samurai shields.
.................I guess I'll never know

You wonder?

Hmmm

You are gay .✍🏽

did the traditional ruler in Ikwerre land not know about the billboard ?

Where was Ikwerre mentioned in the Billboard?

bluefilm:
His dribbling is out of this world, even haters can confirm that

But not just his dribbling skills alone

Jay Jay Okocha is a wonder to watch because he can score wonderful goals too

You are probably a youngster which explains why you missed out on the Okocha wonder magic

As for me, I started watching Jay Jay as from Tunisia 94

I'm probably too young to remember?

I watched Okocha at Mauritius 93 Junior AFCON..

Watched him make his senior debut against CIV at Abidjan ,May 93..

You all get carried away by flair and a nice touch..

A few over the ball tricks doesn't mean he was the best ever..

Football is a team sports,not a one man show .

What was his end product,how much does he influence matches?

I'm no hater,but i'll objectively take a Kanu over an Okocha any day..

abuhusna1:
You can rant how you like its the truth but what you just said is false. Both jesus and Muhammed are messengers of God

According to what some imported religion told you..

Eaglepixel:
But you all claim 3 gods, and non of the two have the power to intervene in your current situations.

Or don't you know the meaning of God?

He can do all things is the absolute point.
So 2 gods will allow one to be making you to suffer in Nigeria?

There's just one God and no intercessor at all.
Allah is one

And what has your Allah done about the situation of his legion of hungry Northern worshippers?

The hungry and diseased horde ready to maim and murder for him,what has he done for them?

chiefolododo:
JESUS IS GOD

Lol..
god of the gullible sheep..

lesson44:
Good but make we no forget our population to other African countries o.

What exactly does your population have to do with being a good footballing Nation?
China,India,USA, Indonesia, Pakistan, Russia and Bangladesh are all with huge populations.
What have they won?

Shattuck:
there was an award given for Africa's best before CAF started it's own award, combining that to the recent CAF award which began in 1993 given cameroon I think 11 awards.

The topic says CAF Awards and like you said,it started in 1993..

Factcheck0001:
when was he robbed?

Which significant thing did he do in football aside from needless dribbles that add nothing to teams

Kanu will always b rated over him anyday anytime

Okocha was shoe in for the 1998 Award..
Nigeria not being at the AFCON 98 cost him,Hadji won with 2 votes..

Who gave Weah the African Footballer Of the year in 1997 and 1999?
Ogbeni, Victor Ikpeba won it in 1997 and Kanu won it 1999.
Stop confusing yourself with fake news..

bluefilm:
But the greatest of them all, is not even on the list

Who?

Austin Jay Jay Okocha

Greatest because he can dribble?
Football is not a Circus Show..

LivingSage:
Check this thread about Cameron being the most winner of the CAF men of the year award

https://www.nairaland.com/8295806/caf-men-most-awards-nigeria#133342715

CAF started giving the Award in 1993 and Nigeria has the most winners.
Before then the African Best Player Awards was given by France Football Magazine.

geoworldedu:
African POTY award hasn't started by this time. Before there are other awards then, like BBC African player that Okocha won twice.

Not the same thing..
The Africa Best Player Awards used to be given by France Football Magazine untill CAF took over in 1993.

Akwamkpuruamu:
It mrans different persons winning the award as Nigerians and not nigeria nation winning it most. Cameroon is still leading the pack of most caf player of the year awards

The keyword is CAF..
Cameroon does not have the most CAF awards
