CultureRe: Why Are The Men On NL (or In Nigeria) So Abusive? by davidif: 8:44am On Oct 22, 2009
Rosabelle:
So this evening I read around NL and checked out that 'most times' a thread doesnt get abusive until a man starts.
I dont get it. Sometime ago, women used to be known as abuisve, talkative, gossips etc. Today, everywhere you look (especially in our culture), things are quiet until men enter the equation. They brull and stamp and basically act like they have to be heard at all costs.
Whats up with the trouble-looking attitude that MEN are beginning to develop so strongly.
Is it a lack of confidence or what?
Am I the only one who feels this way? Or have you noticed similar?

PS: Lets see who will start abusing me first!
I LOVE YOU.
EducationRe: Asian Education: Better Than Western Education? by davidif(op): 8:40am On Oct 22, 2009
is college free for all in scandinavia? how do they fund that?
With incredibly high taxes. There income tax rate is in the 40's (40%).


yeah that's the point i was trying to make.
it's not about which is the best but how many people benefit from it. better to have 30 states schools to graduate 1 million people than have 2 harvards to graduate only 6000 people.
education is not just for getting jobs it's good for the overall quality of life and good for the country too.
US compared to most asian countries have more college educated citizens and it's easier to get education here than in Asian countries.

but compared to scandinavia, university education is probably too expensive to be available to all though. but they still try better than most other countries with subsidizing it etc.
You are right, what's the point of having several harvard's when only the elites or less than 2% of your population have access to it. But on the other hand, in Europe, after junior secondary school, kids are split into two groups: those that would go into higher institutions of learning and those who would go into vocational work (blue collar) which is very sad and to me VERY VERY WRONG. Its like in naija, where in some schools, after junior secondary school, kids are designated to Arts class or science class or social sciences, which is a very very immoral thing to me. This neglects the facts that some children are slow learners and late bloomers and could go on to "conquer the world" in the fields of science and technology, but now they are in "Agric. economy". Here in yanki, YOU DETERMINE YOUR OWN FUTURE.

nuzo:
Dude, I've never denied being Nuzo and will never do that to please anybody. But I know for sure that I will deny being Nigerian if it has to prevent me from getting what is due to me.
And yes, only very rich people and kids with dual citizenship will proud themselves as Nigerians in critical situation simply because, they dont have anything to lose.

As for pleasing the whiteman or Chinese. . . . . when did that become a sin?

Keep living in lalaland. Everyone knows that one has to be on red alert when dealing with Nigerians.
The percentage of fraudsters in these group of people is nothing compared to Nigerians.
My guy leave am alone, these are rich kids who have never had the opportunity to go through what we went through in naija so they tend to be the most overtly patriotic and nationalistic than those who've lived almost there entire lives in Naija. If the girl had the opportunity live the life i lived in my childhood, trust me she no go dey open mouth talk abeg.

bawomolo:
USC would easily defeat ND, ND has one of the worst defenses in the country. expect USC's RB to deal with em easily.

Colt McCoy is a typical system college QB. all that dude throws is short passes and the occasional long ball.

alabama, florida and USC are better than texas.
Omo, that game was much closer than anyone ever thought.

muffins:
I'm betting on behalf of Fl Gators, Florida is winning, if they don't I'll pay you $1500. tongue
Florida were very lucky on that one.

Look, when they rank this things don't they do it based on the number of visitors or hits on the website? So why are you guys arguing with the obvious?

See that's why we need some kind of playoff system in the NCAA today. If only there was one, there was no reason in the world why we should not have played those freaking swamp things last year. Alabama smalaba who gives a rat ass about them, is that not how you ppl where talking jazz about BYU before Florida state kicked them where the sun don't shine.

Come ma sef Davidif I hope you not  a Trojan [HOLLYWOOD] because Notre Dame is going to end your miserable season on Saturday tongue tongue
I might not be into the Trojans but they would easily take care of Notre Dame. Just watch and see what there defense does to Clausen. Remember that Pete Carroll very rarely loses big games, he only loses to smaller teams.
PoliticsRe: Bankole To Niger Delta: Your Leaders Failed You by davidif: 2:58pm On Oct 16, 2009
"For some of you who have been to Lagos in the past one year, I’m sure you’ll notice the difference. And I’m not shy to appreciate that there is a difference in Lagos. It’s good governance.

"Like I said, there are differences in Nigerian government today. But I’ll tell you, His Excellency, the governor of Bayelsa State collects 9.2 times more money than Lagos State from the Federal Allocation. That’s a recent development. Don’t compare it with 20 years ago.

"I know that Rivers State collects more money than the entire North Eastern part of Nigeria, today. I know that Akwa Ibom State collects more money than the entire North Western part of Nigeria today. I know that Bayelsa State collets more money than the entire North Central states of Nigeria…

"Nigeria’s budget for this year was around N3trillion. However, by the time you add the budget of the Niger Delta states alone, it is over N1.5trillion. There are may be over 140 to 150milion people in Nigeria. Niger Delta as about 17million; the remaining 130million is outside the Niger Delta.
Great point. All this people shout is resource control when they get a huge majority of Nigeria's oil wealth. Can somebody tell me what the likes of Ibori, Amaechi, Victor Attah, Alams and Odilli did with our money? Now they are shouting resource control. Resource control ko, resource control ni.
