haba, doesnt this person sound a bit confused  As in, no vex, Im happy for her with all her achievements, but, haba! Engineering, then literature, then medical scl! Congrats tho!
ha ha ha ha, we should get investigative journalists to check if she is saying the truth.


As the information minister this woman needs to learn how to give bettergood interviews. At the moment, shes competing with Honourable PM Berlusconi in gaffes!! *chuckles to herself* Seems like they just keep shootin themselves in the foot once u put a mic to their mouths and a camera in their faces. Lets hope she does not share in his passion for beautiful blonds.
WORD! Nigerian politicians are terrible at PR even the information minister is not even immuned from stupid gaffes like saying that she would have prefered if her child married a naija man.

RomanceRe: Can You Date A 16 Year Old Girl? by davidif: 6:27am On Aug 23, 2009
Pedophilia is having sex with anyone under the age of consent. The age of consent in Nigeria is 13!  

It seems that by Nigerian standards a 16 year old girl is quite experienced and grown up!

THE FACTS ABOUT ADOLESCENT REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH IN NIGERIA  (Source: http://www.siecus.org/inter/nigeria/acti/acti0002.html)
SEXUAL RELATIONS

7 out of every 10 males and 5 out of every 10 females attending secondary school in Nigeria are sexually active or have had sexual relations at least, once. A study in Benin City showed that 55% of the secondary school girls had sexual intercourse before age 16. A more recent study showed that the mean age of initiation of sexual intercourse is 13 years.

PREGNANCY
Two out of every 5 secondary school girls interviewed admitted to at least one previous pregnancy. Over 900,000 births to adolescents occur annually and 150 out of every 1000 women who give birth in Nigeria are 19 years old and under.

ABORTION
Eighty percent of patients at Nigerian Hospitals with abortion-related complications are adolescent girls. These complications include hemorrhage, septicemia, perforated uterus, secondary sterility and in many cases, death. Illegally induced abortion is described as a school girls' problem in Nigeria.

MORTALITY
Pregnant girls who are 15 years old and under, have a maternal, mortality rate 7 times higher than that of women aged 20 to 24 years old. Girls under 20 years of age suffer more pregnancy and delivery complications such as toxemia, anemia, premature delivery, prolonged labor, than women who are 20 or more years old.

STDS AND AIDS:
World Health Organization estimates that worldwide, one out of 20 adolescents contract a sexually transmitted disease (STD) each year. Also, one-fifth of people worldwide with AIDS are in their twenties, indicating that they probably contracted the AIDS virus during their adolescence (due to the long latency period of the disease). In Nigeria, 15- to 29-year-olds account for 63 percent of all the AIDS cases among females between 1986 and 1995.

SCHOOL DROP OUT RATES
Teenage pregnancy is a major cause of school drop out among girls. In a Nigerian study of 127 pregnant school girls, 52% were expelled from school, 20% were too ashamed to return, 15% could not return because their parents refused to pay tuition and 8% were forced to marry.
shocked shocked shocked shocked

Nigg Nogg
That was very VERY INSIGHTFUL.
I  am not really surprised by the stats but its the abortion and teen pregnancy rates that baffle me, i knew they were going on but i didn't know that they were so high.

I am also a little skeptical about the data because each tribe and each region has different attitudes to sex. An example would be the contrasts in sexual behavior among kids in the north compared to that of kids in the south (especially the south-south).

well yeah there is no reasoning with dumb people like you that are single minded and assume EVERYONE is out fuking EVERYONE.

And Hiedi klum is definitely on crack

And most of the black american travelers to Europe are good financially and educated and arent the thugs running around american hoods.So why wouldnt a mature european chick want a black american man?They look better,have better music,etc etc
Every woman says that Djimon Honsou is incredibly gorgeous, even those that don't even like black guys. My akata friend the other day told me "he's sexy". By the way, who are you to judge beauty?? go ask any of your female friends what they think of Djimon Honsou? If you want a clue of what the answer is, then go see the movie "beauty shop".
FamilyRe: Americans Marry Too Much by davidif: 5:49am On Aug 23, 2009
I think they get lonely easily. And America is such a big place compared to Sweden, there's a tendency for friends and family to be so dispersed. There's rarely any time for you to even meet them or have time for yourself because Americans are always working, running from first jobs to second jobs, forgetting their families need work too. Life is so fast here, why won't they rush in and out of marriage?
Marriage has lost its meaning in that part of the world. Marriage is a contract that should not be broken. Infact, its a convenant.
The majority of the divorces in the country is in the state i live in and it is because children marry sooooooooooo early. You see some kids marrying at age 18, some even younger than that. That is why i have always being against early marriage. I believe if one is going to get married, it should be when they are done with university (preferably after grad school) or in there late 20's.

My roomate, who worked as a financial planner told me that majority of divorces take place within the first 5 years of the marriage (and after all the kids have grown up and have gone to university) and that what usually causes it is money.

Another reason is that majority of there weddings is based on fairly tales of "happily ever after" which is not realistic. The sentimental feeling of euphoria (like the type you see in the movies) they feel fades out. Real love is not going on dates or buying flowers, jewelry, teddy bears, and chocolate. Real love is not going on pony rides it is 1 Corinthians 13. When you read that chapter everyday and understand it, then you will see what love is.

Spanish league and sports in general is the most racist and spiteful sports concept in the known world,yet it is nothing but praises for their cluds in this fucking place.

WE NEED A BIGGER POPULATION!!! ISRAEL AND SEVERAL OTHER DEVELOPED COUNTRIES WISH THEY HAD A BIG POPULATION LIKE OURS, YET WE WANT TO REDUCE OUR OWN POPULATION.

A huge developed population is a blessing because the potential, if properly harnessed would be amazing.
Look at China, a nation of 1.5 billion people, why do you think a lot of businesses want to move to china? Its because of there population, you are potentially talking about a huuuuuuuuge customer base. China's economy is set to overtake the US in decades from now because of there population.

Size in population is the reason why other developed countries like Canada are encouraging immigration. It is the same reason why the Japanese, German and other economies in Western Europe can't compete with that of America's, partly because they've refused to stop having babies grin grin grin.

WARNING: Population is a blessing when it is an educated and sophisticated one. If its not, na wahala o shocked so that have babies if you cannot afford to give them a world class education because i don't want them to come and rob me in my house or kidnap my children 30 years from now.
PoliticsRe: Which Nairalander Would You Like To See As President? by davidif: 3:35am On Aug 23, 2009
I mean duh its only plausible to have someone be the president of Nigeria who has  background is political science international relations and economics, with an LLM in international law duh!!!!

That's Nigerias problem, they dont elect people who have background in politics and international relations.
That's the kiss of death right there, you just ruled yourself out of the presidency with your egomaniacal attitude.
Your background has nothing to do with your success at being a president. Last time i checked Ronald Reagan was an actor and Bill Clinton and FDR were both lawyers. Harry Truman was a farmer and never went to college and he became one of America's greatest ever president.
All you need to be a great president is
1. Integrity
2. Leadership ability: This includes having a vision for the country and a sense of direction of where you want the country to go.
3. The wisdom to be able to find the best people for the job who can lead the country there.
4. COMPETENCE: The ability to get the job done.



I dont really agree, but one thing i would like is that at least our president finished university with a degree at least in something sensible. Ir, econ are useless.
No knowledge is wasted when it comes to the presidency. Of course you don't need to be an economist or international relations major to be a great president because afterall, all you need to do is surround yourself with great advisers and "experts" in that area and you are fine. But extra knowledge might help you understand economic and foreign relations issues. The president doesn't even need


Jakumo
Jakumo is an extremist.

Afam
Ahh, where do i even start on this one. Ok, let me start with his personality. First the guy seems to always come of as being angry and belligerent especially if people don't share the same point of view with him. He stoops sooooooooooo low as to belittle them and he resorts to insults (what i call the the naija way). He looks like the average naija "oga" who believes that the best management approach is to display anger and to yell at subordinates just to gain respect. I would never ever want to work for  a guy like that. THE LAST THING I WANT IN A PRESIDENT IS ONE WHO EASILY GETS ANGRY, we can't have the guy at the helm of the state making decisions that would influence millions of lives based on his emotions. THE PRESIDENT ALWAYS NEEDS TO HAVE AN EVEN KEEL ALL THE TIME ESPECIALLY DURING CRISIS MOMENTS, BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE WATCHING YOU AND IF YOU START TO PANIC, THEN THE "TROOPS" ALSO START PANICKING.
He also his very arrogant and he believes that he knows everything so what everybody else says is wrong and stupid. Even though is alway important to have conviction about somethings, he should be willing to compromise on some other things. Not only that, he should always be tractable and open minded to other opposing views as this would help hm better shape his decision making. This guy believes he knows everything, hence, he would not want to listen to other points of view.
The guy is also very gullible and paranoid. He believes everything he reads on the web and he seems to have that paranoia that the CIA is about to destroy naija.
