Dyt: I quoted d wrong person
No wonder I hav nt gotten any

Oya men apply o

snubish: asalaam-alaykum-wa-ramatullah-wa-barakatuh! wow, wot can i say. engaging thread indeed. i don,t usually post on social forums but this is too tempting, even though nl seemed visually clumsy, i couldn't help registering to post on this one. this dude that was on the thread for 14hrs: my guy se u no miss salat during dat time sha unto say, u no go get valid excuse o. many exciting personalties on the thread mukina2: i,ll call you the wise old woman, are u sure u,re not married? ur posts are so matured i,m sure u're al least 25yrs, and deols: intelligent head and fiesty at heart, we say u,re the madam of the house. poor maclatunji: (queer username) u will be mostly alone in this lifetime, the upright brother who wants to change the world and put some order into all the chaos around us, wish u luck man, believe me i know how u feel. and last but not least; toba: crazy funny dude, u seem to be extremely socially sophisticated, running things on a muslim thread for so long, bros u gat the flos man isn,t it funny how much u can reveal about yourself unknowingly on an internet forum without the pretence and inhibition of real life confrontation. i may be wrong though, but u guys still make interesting read. i may not post on this thread again but i,ll surely peep in to see wassup occasionally, so i may as well jus contribute my quota of attributes i would admire........ we all know the fundamentals by now: religion(deen),then family, then wealth, and lastly beauty. of course this is just meant as a summary to guide. a mumin must be practical in their affairs, u don,t want to use the excuse of allowed polygamy 3months after nikkah,and remember that Allah subhanawatalah hates divorce. for example ladies, would u marry a man having several obligations and barely able to take care of his own self just because of his deen while u were not desperate? the point is balance in decision making. me, in addition to the fundamentals i mentioned above, i would feel most fulfilled with someone sppp'
imilar to me particularly in temperament. a family is a place where each individual is supposed to develop to their highest potential, and this would not be possible in an environment where there is a lot of conflict. you can google briggs personalty types to get a better grasp, sometimes opposites are compatible. i would also want someone with something in the head or i,ll be bored in a week, so education; no compromise(level of, depends on other factors). this is not vanity but practical personal and social conclusions. u don,t want to go out alone all the time because you wife is not able to communicate with others. then looks, average would be just fine. i have this grade a, b, and c thing i do, as i have put myself in grade b, then b would be just fine for me. i want a wife and mother for my sires not a trophy. i also do this spiritual, mental, physical balance check but that,s just a queer distraction. but lest i forget, one of the most important qualities i look for is resourcefulness and contentment. i,m sorry to reveal that i,m yet to know on close terms a content Nigerian woman, maybe it,s me attracting the wrong people and all that but that is what i observed. i,m not saying a woman should not be ambitious, but moderately so. the women i know want to drive brand new beamers, vacation in london, and shop in paris. and if they don,t have this there,s this perpetual sadness that follows them around. Allah subhanawatala is the One Who gives wealth in His Own time, so Nigerian ladies, learn some patience and appreciate a hardworking honest man. but i do not blame them, if u,re not wealthy in this country with no social benefits, then u may be just poor o, while politicians will be running around with people's daughters in flashy cars. so in a nutshell these are my personal preferences; and as i currently make less than 100k monthly, i am not even trying to search o. i know myself and the kind of family lifestyle i want, maybe i,ll change sometime but for now sha......... big ups to y'all, may Allah subhanawatala give us success in this life and the next. ma salaam.

Former Head of State, Retired Gen. Yakubu Gowon, has hinged the challenges facing the education sector on misplacement of values.

Gowon, who spoke in Ibadan yesterday at the education summit organized by the Oyo State government, said parents must pay more attention to the education of their wards.

He also called on parents to complement learning in schools by teaching good virtues to their children at home through exemplary behaviour.

Gowon said parents must take time to assist their children in their home work rather than allow them waste precious time watching home video.

He said teaching and learning were the key factors to human development, adding that every child must be given the benefit of education in the country.

Gowon, who was the chairman of the summit, decried the state of infrastructure in schools across the country.

He said dilapidated classroom structures coupled with lack of teaching materials had discouraged pupils and students from learning.

The former head of state recalled that the Universal Primary Education (UPE) scheme was established by his government because of the shortage of teachers in public primary schools at the time.

'Because of my passion for education, my government did everything possible to encourage education in the country,'' he said.

Gowon, however, said government must invest adequately in education and provide incentives that would make teaching attractive.

In a keynote address, Prof Afolabi Oldapo, former Head of Service of the Federation, said government must invest adequately in the education sector.

He argued that free education could not produce quality education, noting that education could only be meaningful when people pay for it. Ajimobi, on his part, explained that the summit became necessary because of the backward state of education in the state.

He said the state, which used to be in the forefront of education in the country, took the 34th position out of 36 states in the WAEC-organized examination for 2011.

The governor said the state would soon establish its own technical university to provide openings for youths yearning for tertiary education. (NAN
