Philinho:
I am happy for our supper eagles. we got another talisman

Exactly my sentiment. He is young and still improving on his game meaning many years to play for super eagles. He gradually growing into Sunday Oliseh vacant shoe.
I hope NFF will allow Gohr built this Super Eagles for up to 4yrs and Super Eagles will be a force a again.

BrightEye:
can anybody notice olajumoke's hands/fingers.... #terrible

That's the evidence of years of hardship she has endured before grace located her.
She was not born aje butter but aje garri ati epa.
Live her alone

An average girl will always do whatever she wants to do even when she asks for advise she only looking for rubber stamp of approval. If you advice her against her decision and she goes ahead to succeed in it you become her enemy and if supported her but she failed in it she 'll blame for not forcing to stop. So, nne, do what you like it's your life.

Celebrities showing off online | TheCable.ng
BY TONY OGUNLOWO

It’s the in-thing now: if you have it you must flaunt it – your wealth, status, possessions – in the most public way possible.

In this new age of online social media it’s not uncommon to see celebrities – and wannabes – flaunting their wealth on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and other platforms much to the annoyance, and envy, of others.

Showing off has now become an art form with each mindless individual trying to outshine everybody else with their material possessions; whether they be Floyd Mayweather or an overpaid footballer showing off their exotic car collection, Davido bragging about spending a million dollars in three months on luxury goods or Kim Kardashian showing off her diamond rings (sic – and we all know what happened to her in Paris!).

Even bit-part Nollywood actresses, socialites and musicians are busy flaunting their designer handbags (- often fakes!), flashy expensive cars and homes. Some take showing off to a ridiculous new level – posing with huge wads of cash, washing their hands with champagne or wearing multi-million dollar watches!

All this showing off trying to say you’re better off than the next person just says one thing about the individual – insecurity!

Many will argue that it’s the culture of our people to show off what they have but I disagree; any insecure person feels the need to be seen and known as they have no other way of ascertaining themselves. And the best way for them to announce to the world that they have ‘arrived’ is to show off all their materially possessions.

Not only is this stupid and childish it also attracts a lot of unwanted attention from those who don’t have, making them susceptible to being robbed or kidnapped.

Most you show off your wealth?

If you have the good fortune to become successful and wealthy keep it to yourself. Showing off and rubbing peoples’ noses in it is not necessarily a good thing and can send out the wrong message to a lot of impressionable people out there who want to have what you’ve got without putting in the effort. Hence the reason why the crime rate is always high as people steal, kidnap and rob to get instant wealth they can show off. It’s strange that you’ll never see people like Bill Gates or Aliko Dangote showing off their wealth.

A quick peek at richkidsnaija on Instagram will show you how ridiculous it’s become: people in houses with gold-plated furniture – even toilets! (- why do you need a gold-plated toilet?) people posing beside private planes and expensive cars whilst carrying shopping bags bearing well-known labels from Versace, Gucci, Hermes and Louis Vuitton, showing off expensive watches and jewellery (Why spend over a $100,000 on a watch that can only tell the time and do nothing else?). And that’s not forgetting the big high society ‘Owambe’ parties where the crème de la crème go to spray dollars, euros and pounds (- sorry naira holders keep your money in your pocket).

Nobody needs to know how wealthy you are especially in a country where half of the population can’t afford a single square meal a day.

“..The greatest wealth is to live content with little, for there is never want where the mind is satisfied…” – Lucretius

But the most interesting group of exhibitionists are the wannabes who can’t even afford to show-off. In an attempt to show-off, they deck themselves in fake designer clothes and shoes, clutching the latest iPhone and iPad pretending they are rich before slinking off to their nondescript boys’ quarters or rooms in the ghettos. Some even pose for pictures besides other people’s big cars pretending it belongs to them. How many people wear expensive clothes and drive big cars but can’t afford to even feed their own children? All because they want to ‘pose’.

As a Yoruba man will say – “ we meet money in this world and in this world we shall leave it”.

[quote author=omenkaLives post=55523709]These are the cases you'd never see mad men like Reno and FFK tweet about. Murray Bruce would never talk about it neither would Fayose. But when it involves APC, you see their gladiatorial skills spring to life like the petals of blooming sunflower.

I will keep saying this: Had Jonathan been reelected, we would have been facing a worse economic crisis than what Venezuela is passing through right now. These criminals gang would have stolen whatever penny we have left and walk right across the border with same on broad day light with the full complements of security provided by their grand commander- the ineffectual buffoon.

What a shame.[/quote]Omo, see your poetrical expressions(bolded)...i gbadun am joor

And someone is stealing money and putting in the house when a teaching hospital has no proper functioning ultrasound machine

For once Residents doctors have known the truth about healthcare infrastructure decay in Nig.
The enemy has been their seniors in Mgt positions all along but they kept fighting govt with strikes.
This is what they should have been doing since and not frustrate govt when their ogas at the top have lost their sense of humanity and nobleness of the profession.
This is what the Nig Med. Association shouuld confront as principalities have arisen from among them and no body to confront them.

mattmobis:
walahi u started very good in your comment but ended up showing how shallow minded and little you are. It even looks u have very shallow memory because u have forgotten that Jonathan established both BVN, cashless Nigeria and even TSA. Next time think and talk not the other way round.

A hunter went to the forest where he knew to have lots of animals, he got his gun loaded but refused to shoot with animals all running round him, he could see them refused to pull his trigger only to return home to tell stories of how he had a loaded gun and saw animals yet refused to shoot. What should we call him?
That's GEJ

Nnemuka:
They are tired of the underdevelopment and poverty. Alhaji sanusi what have you done to improve Almajiri system and eradicate extreme hunger in the north?
It shouldnt just start and end on Instagram....
How many Almajiri's have you sponsored to learn a skill or acquire education?
Are you just waking up from your slumber?
something tells me that your rant may be that you are seeking for a political office.

Bunch of confused northern elders....

You are the confused one here. Do start to solve a problem without first defining/identifying the problem?
Can he alone solve it all?
Doesn't it occurs to you that he is the only one in his capacity so far to have taken this start to confront the problems by creating awareness and compelling their polithiefians and outdated clerics to change their mind set?

Where all the youths of "Efe's gang etc", this is such actions are needed in matters of national interest not reality shows.

This is internationalised Eba packaging and I respect the brains behind these.

alexistaiwo:
Nowadays I hate eating Eba.
When people ask me why?
I always reply that the amount of Eba I ate during my childhood is enough to last me nine lifetime.


When I was younger. Eba wasn't just a food to us.
It was a way of life.

Bro. I concur...

davidif:
Have you ever heard of the term continuity?
Why is it that you people consistently fire coaches after every tournament only to start the cycle all over again?
Look at Lagerbaxk that you fired only a few months in charge but the same man performed wonders with Iceland at the Euros?
They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

You dey mind all these Indomie children? They always crash the body the way it itches them and they develop a sore they run to NL and face to tell us stories.

cleanshaven:
His a wonderful coach, I listen to him this morning on a radio station in Lagos, he is a warm and serious person, I hope we qualify, so he will be around for a while.

Right from the beginning this man stated his mission and he's only just reaffirming it. He has a personal mission to go the world Cup in Russia and Nig is his best chance of qualifying and playing in the world Cup as a coach.
The result in the first 2 matches played so far is the best Nigeria ever had in World cup qualifying matches. Even the great team of 1994 didn't win their first 2 matches in 1993.
From the way the S.Eagles played in these 2 matches they are determined to make it.

Explorers:
Abandoned Movie Theatre, Detroit, Michigan


Detroit was once a thriving city, but after the fall of the motor industry, Detroit was left in shambles.

This beautifully designed movie theatre was one of many places that were left to abandonment, leaving behind a chilling reminder of how great this city once was.

If na Nig, they don vandalize that theatre and strip it bare.

For any local hunter to achieve this its he has earned a huge reputation. This man has just become a legend in village and communities around them.

VanBommel:
but the amount they mentioned is over-inflated

According to Chief Zebrudaya, "whether or wethant" it's inflated, is not the issue now, let NASS respond in same manner. Na dem throw challenge, ball dey dem court now make dem play.
Its fights like this btw politic politicians that we should encourage so their yansh go dey open for public to see and we should support such as a way to fight corruption.

Rosskii:
People abroad don't falsify their age? Only Africans do, correct? Ignorant, stupid dummy.

Why are you crying now? Who beat you?
Frustrated soul, go, get job and find something useful to with your life. Osazee is made for life.

Akshow:
Honestly not hating o. But babe ain't fine.

Modelling ain't about being fine, it ain't beauty pageantry guy...she has made global headlines and a worthy celebrity.

ISpiksDaTroof:
You don't even have to torture anyone, simple logic helps in a case like this.

Secure the scene, interview everyone that came in contact with the body, take pictures of the crime scene and surrounding areas, collect necessary evidence from the scene including any that might include DNA. Dust for fingerprints etc

Its not that hard. A simple thing such as figuring out the position the body was found and the direction the gun faced in relation to the bullet holes in his body starts the process of elimination (of suspects) faster. The position of the Blood splatter from the victim can also help determine what happened. Does the Nigerian police know if the victim was right handed or left handed? Did they bother to check the door knobs, light switches, railings etc for fingerprints to determine who was in the residence with him prior to his assassination? Did they check under his fingernails for DNA evidence; probably a struggle ensued before he was killed? It is possible. Knowing the Nigerian Police though, they probably just contaminated the whole scene on arrival and came with buckets of water to wash off the blood thereby destroying potential evidence.

This is a simple case that could be solved by a rookie if he has the proper equipment and training.

Our Police go tell you say you too dey watch movies...
I said it on this forum before that there are too many lawyers in the Police force. They seek legal short cuts by torturing ordinary people to confess crime and get convictions.
If you have scientist trained using scientific investigations they should have been having forensic laboratory my now.

Have you all noticed that gtbank has stopped paying interest capilization

Punctual:
will they now get the attention when they start smelling like rotten fish??...dey just wan turn oyinbo by force

They might not even know or perceive that they smell at all. As far they are concerned "I'm pretty/finer or more beautiful than before"

OmoAregbesola:
Men killing women slowly.
All this just to impress men.

How are men responsible for low self esteem?
Ebony ladies are getting married and finding true romance daily.
There's a difference between finding true in a relationship and finding mass attention or the desire to attract as many men as possible.
Bleachers are in general looking for attention from men not for true romance or relationship.
In their minds, the more the heads that turn to look at them the better they feel.
I beg leave the matter there

Have you all noticed that banks do not pay interest capilization again? Especially gtbank

GTB still does, I got my interest capitalised alert on April 1.

Except for say na students hostel so, everybody go dey form....otherwise, that your question na out of point nau

[quote author=greenhulk post=55262863]So what's the difference between what u said and what I
Sorry, i miss understood you.

Daboomb:
People like you are known for just "one-liners" that appeal to the foolishness of the masses on Nairaland.

Put your own thoughts (if you have any) into writing and let us read them here.

Its unfortunate that the brainless and unintelligent are so much in this space that they applaud no-brainers like you!

I challenge you to do a 500 words write up on how Buhari has plunged this country into recession twice.

Bunch of certificate forgers who come to Nairaland to spew thrash.

My bro., shame dey catch me for them.

If the best educated generations of Nigeria couldn't lead this country right with all the resources at their disposal i pity the current youthful generation because una go roast wella.
As they can't just comprehend a well put up analysis of events and outcome to appreciate the point made, only to just respond on sentiment rather than reason.
With this kind mentality, the few with their head in the right place will use the head of the rest to sweep gutter in 20yrs time.
After, the late preparation of the budget last yr, the executive hurried to avoid same situation this year having prepared the budget in Dec and hoping for an early passage and implementation. But Saraki and Senathief friends have not only added extra $2 on the oil benchmark for themselves, they abandoned the budget for 4months now and spending value time on ego massage.
And these youths whose future is been destroyed before their eyes are claiming " my hero".

greenhulk:
Even if his age is real, there are not too many 35 yrs old playing top class football.

Are you aware that the difference between those 30+ still playing and those not playing is history of injuries?
Are there not 20+ who are forced to retire early due to injuries?
Osazee was forced out of stokes and other EPL teams refused him because of the injuries he suffered last.
He hasn't played in the last 2and half or 3yrs which means no income and probably paid his last med bills from his pocket.
He's probably just trying to find some retirement bonus in a less strenuous league before his legs finally quits on him.

greenhulk:
Dude is already 35, and for an African we know when they say 35 it actually means 40+. I don't think even any club in china wants him.

Your assertion doesn't apply to all Africans, Osazee was born abroad and started his academy training there in Uzbekistan his mother's country. So, he age is real.

Flamzey00:
No b odewinge score d winning goal against Egypt via World Cup qualification 1984.

1984? . O boy where you watch that match?
Osaze was a year old baby in 1984. In 1994, he was in academy. He made played his first match for super eagles in 2002 when he was with Bendel Insurance of Benin.
