Travel › Re: Eight Of The Trapped Boys Are Rescued From Thailand Cave, Airlifted (Photos) by daveP(m): 9:16am On Jul 08, 2018
wow. I hope the boys are brave enough for that choke point number 2. I feel a rope should do the Rick with a Lil oxygen to pull em up. I'd have wanted that place ex to be drilled actually. but....


I feel like elon musk came to help.


Good one there boys.

All over the world, other political leaders are getting involved daily with the people they serve, and it's not seen as scoring cheap points. Only in naija when a governor or president does that, it is seen as a game.


But still yet, Bubu continues to sit atop that pedestal while his minister of condolences walks about daily in choppers.



Those Thai soldiers have served their country that would endear the citizens to their hearts for a generation now. Waiting for the Nigerian soldiers to do something similar, but I've forgotten I might be old by then.

An Argentine officiated UruFra, and the bitter rivals of his country got eliminated.

I think FIFA needs to step up this rotational quota by insistently making each continent produce a dozen refs each prior to every WC. That way kasala no go happen.


IL still keep saying it, the numerical strength of the European teams is a hug huge advantage for them@13.


If Africa had such a slot, even if we are backwards centurywise, we would have at least 3teams in the q/finals.


Now it's just a euro affair. A dry one.


Europe winning it since 2006.

Education › Re: Richard Akindele: Monica Osagie Sent Nudes To Me, Why I Demanded 5 Rounds Of Sex by daveP(m): 7:43pm On Jul 06, 2018
This Prof is dumb for playing along. Most of these lecturers have this mentality of chopped and clean mouth even when they initially didn't have any interest in such advances by female students. They feel they can chop and Waka pass and at least they won't lose either way.



Then see the way the girl was chatting with her prof for that matter. Vulgar and inappropriate use and choice of words for a first time approach? Girls like these exists no doubt. And the trend is as old as SOme newly wedded brides. The rot is that bad.


such shenanigans.


The guys buy pepper soup and crates of beer and sometimes plasma TV and generators to graduate, while the girls use the method that has always been circulated to work.


Abeg make two of them to (in oshiomole's voice) goan die. This case is an out of court issue. cos no one has any advantage. See the stupid girl claiming trauma. After she won make prof become undergraduate again by raising skirt. SMH.


As for the school..... Thunder go catch them. The system has no respite or history of justice so no one can be held to ransom.

Looks more like Nigeria is about to divide. The borders porousity favours the mothers than any other region. They take full advantage of it and so many illegal immigrants flock in numbering thousands per day.


Any serious President would need to spend $50million above to get control over the borders again. SMH.


All they need is come from the Chad angle and that's all.

This senseless trend among all these actors and actresses of Nollywood. They forgotten how they were the ones eager to be on screen. Now see them forming High Don Jazzy for their fans. They don't care again about the fans. It's all about the cash. Later they'll come on IG, Twitter and FBk talking to the fans they denied seeing them on screen in the name of worth or pay structure. They'll soon regret it. They will.


For the fans!!!

But these Thai guys have been schooling our military for the past 3weeks now. I hope they turn their natural brutishness to love and compassion for an average citizen of FRN.

Hehhhehhehe.


See the dumbo questions this senator is asking?


First, when last was any Bill passed that favoured the entire population of this country called Nigeria, that made them to start looking forward to another such bill being passed weeks later? Help me ask him and his colleagues?!


Hospitals have been operating on such stupid but cautious rule cos they get unnecessary harassment from the police if they are found to have "aided and abetted" in "criminal case"


It's that bad that doctors and nurses don't care again when humans die at their front cos they so fear the repercussions that arises from the security forces.


As much as I'd like to put some blame on the medical aside, I'd say they were left no such choice.


He should goan check when last a bill to favour Nigerians was passed, then he can now get info that he needs.

Next he is shocked that despite the president making it law, it still wasn't recognized. Hahhahahahaah. See why I call these senators the main problem with Nigeria.


SMH.


They'll pass laws and expect the agbero on the street to just suddenly upgrade his "version" of the shallow constitution. That's if they even know it.


All these know how to do is section and section on the red carpet of the hallowed chambers.


They should be up and doing if they want a better and we'll informed Nigeria.

Hmm. What an irony if signings here and there.


I don't expect our best players to go to wrong places. especially for cash as priority.


All these stupid work permit excuses that just pisses me off. more like another way to deny an interested club the chance to use their cash well.

About three countries came for chibok girls then, US was one.

They flew their drones over sambisa forest searching for the girls. One of the country said the abduction was kind of political.
Just like inviting you to my house to help find what am hiding.

They cant blast it.
Rawlings Effect. we need something like that in this country. so sad.


I doubt most of these military guys in naija are not skilled in situations management. They seem eager to pass the idea that it's force force and more force. If one of these boys become Prime Minister tomorrow now, I won't be surprised. his people has just shown him the way to ensure he serves his fatherland without second thoughts.

What's there to investigate again? His bullet was found in her, isn't that enough? 2weeks again? Why do I feel like these guys wana just spend cash for an issue that should be concluded in just 48hrs?


Even issues like these supposed to be dealt with by the state assembly.


That officer should be hanged by now.



Seems for now, it's


civilians Vs military
citizens Vs bubu
humans Vs cows
common sense Vs stupidity
reality Vs fantasy
importance Vs irrelevance

lives that matter Vs SARS


Should I be glad they are even taking this up? hell no, it's just an iota of what they signed up for.


Till I grow white hairs, I'll still hinge on the fact that these bunches called senate are actually the problem and not "a problem"

RIP to the dead.

International rescue team are on the mountain for days, checking if digging will work.

But the challenge is the distance from the top of the mountain down to the cave, about half a mile.



Like dominique said, the kids are not children of politicians or millionaires.


These boys are just ordinary citizens living in a local town in the country, they're children of nobody, maybe parents are teachers or artisans, and the country stood still because of them.


If we're to estimate how much Thai government had spent on this search and rescue mission over the two weeks, i can guess $1million.


More than two Giant generator set are running 247 to power the cave, about two different command centres set up in the cave, many pumping machines are running 247, hundreds of oxygen tanks, fueling the choppers/trucks that are flying and delivering supplies, and so on.


What about the will and the commitment of the over 1,000 men, both local and foreigners working 24hrs.


I doubt if my country can do this to rescue 13 ordinary citizens, one person will just come out and make a statement that the cave has collapsed.
I'm beginning to feel more like international help came aplenty for these chibok girls issue but they weren't encouraged enough. cos almost 7different top countries are at this cave. Nawa o.


rock blasting may be an option. but it's dangerous I think. that drilling distance is damn far....

Putting any kind of typical kwaruption stories or happenings aside, if €2.5million is invested in a NPFL team like Heartland FC, Rangers, Sunshine Stars or Loving stars,.... we would have a rejuvenation that would be a money spinner and eye opener for those handling our sports.


IUFC is looking like Asif they don't know how to do stuff. Do they even have a plan, take less, a master plan?


Sometimes I wonder everyday if officiating improves, if the rest of the clubs won't improve and earn FIFA recognition for this refs.

Did u know that Thomas Lemar's grandfather was a former super Eagles player, perhaps, Lemar could have been in Russia representing Nigeria instead of France.



Did u also know that Ousmane Dembele's father is Nigerian/Malien?


Do ur findings guys, this is becoming more and more interesting after the news of Mbappe.
Yeah lots of immigrants stories and France is always the location. so I'm not surprised.

Many Ibadan peeps even say that it's not Adesanmi that makes him Nigerian, but that name Mbappe. They say it's actually "Oluwambape" I.e "It's God I'd have called"


(shrugs)

With the immigrant influx I can't doubt that, especially knowing the story of Zidane being Algerian too. Some demeaning Nigerians would actually arise and start the bad belle stance by saying its not true, or that we claim them when they succeed. I care less about that na.

Yeah, I'm aware of the two election stuff andmet knows someone like Pinnick might just be doing all these Nightingale stuff for our football so as to garner some sympathy. cos I don't believe he's that clean. But it's now obvious that these lots don't care for the greater good atall.
