mbatuku1:
Instead of calling out to people who can identify the alleged victim, they are busy organising pointless protest walk. Funny clowns!

in a society where the victim is always likely to be blamed and labelled 

instead of encouraging the victim to come out secretly you want random people to identify her

I pity the motoris this month!

Why is the BBC/CNN not saying anything about this, if it were to be a nigerian college it would be all over the news!! Sarca

consolidating on their positions, and security

just heard the ogun state govt telling resident in the state working in Lagos to pay tax to ogun state

or tell him to send it through a Nigerian courier service, those that send goods to Nigeria regularly, you pick it from their office; some even do door to door, they pick it from your house and deliver it to the person's address

the Nigerian post will charge you otherwise to collect your goods

http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/domestic-violence-when-the-law-fails-to-protect/98863/

very long but interesting insight

I was also surprised to learn that in Nigeria, Judges in custody cases where there is evidence of grave domestic violence and/or perpetrators are in complete denial do not compel such perpetrators to undergo psychiatric or psychological evaluation. This is so necessary, some of them are killers in the waiting; if diagnosed they can be helped and some poor woman’s life saved. As I trudge through our courts month after month, I swing from hope to despair; from confidence to anxiety and clarity to confusion. Surely justice delayed is justice denied. But still I hope and I wait.

I know my story is not the worst. I hear other women’s story that moves me to tears and makes me stand up and actually take action. Today I spoke to a woman who has suffered domestic violence for many years but remained hopeful only for her husband to desert her and their 10 year old Autistic daughter because she was unable to give him a ‘real child’. She, like most victims, had been totally economically disempowered in the marriage and had not worked for over five years. She is homeless. She has no money, no income and no assets. Her husband surreptitiously came to take away the car he had given to her after he deserted her. She turned to the legal system and after almost 12 months of waiting on an interim application on accommodation and maintenance, the judge’s ruling was that the husband should pay her N50,000 a month! The ruling was silent on accommodation, transportation, school fees, silent on therapy for the Autistic child, silent on her special diet. School has resumed but the child is unable to start, the only person who has taken them in lives in Ibadan, the child’s school is near where they used to live in Gbagada, Lagos. Before the last school term ended, they were both sleeping in a school premises… no home! Now that’s a real failure of the legal system. What is the Nigerian state doing for women like her, what are our communities and societies doing? You! Yes you, what are you doing?

AjanleKoko:
Truth is, literacy level is low in Nigeria, compared to the countries most of us look up to. That fundamentally changes the landscape to a significant degree. If you are not literate or maybe at best you are semi-literate (i.e. you can count money, understand spoken English, etc), you can only have at best a peripheral appreciation for information and data. You'd most likely go by instinct, superstition, and hearsay, which is what happens in Nigeria to a large extent.

True, but most of these information come from govt departments, I really wonder sometimes what they actually do especially their information departments, or how they measure performance. Do they have records they don't share with the public however literate they are or they don't even have any incentive to measure or keep records

Even when the majority are not appreciative of these information or data, potential investors or entrepreneurs would very much find it useful! research students will have their work cut out too- no need to grease some palms to get vital information that should ordinarily be in the public

oswardic:
As most people has clearly stated, The school must have had their reasons for declining the boy, who knows if his appearance was even scary knowing fully well that BOKO HARAM are everywhere? Filling your form wrongly too is a great point to look out for , Muslim/Anglican does not make single sense, Isn't Anglican under Christianity? he should have wrote Muslim/Christian and I am very sure he would have been called upon for an interview to why he had to fill in that and maybe his reasons would have justified him for an admission.
I am so sure that Christians do not reason like the muslims especially in course like this, demacating themselves by the so-call islamic banking and hunting down Christians.[/b]We should pray for this nation, Muslims always come up with things so as to distablized the country. [b]We shouldn't forget the fact that Christians are the ones holding this country as one and a simple point to justify this is that, Christians refuse taking disastrous actions whenever their counterpart (Muslims) are pushing it hard,
All is well with this nation and may God continue to exercise is peace upon this country,
PEACE!!!

how idiotic could you be exactly?
the boy lives in lagos for crying out loud went to a mixed or probably a christain school

yyou mean keeping their traditional architecture is now a problem for a would be economic migrant?

hercules07:
Why are you guys not heckling Elephant Cement, Burham Cement and Eagle Cement, why is it only Dangote Cement that people are sad about? Let other cement guys crash their prices now, or are they owned by Dangote? Direct your anger at the government that gave him monopolies on these things, your Julius Berger also has a stranglehold on construction work in Nigeria, why are you guys not shouting, afterall, it is proven that JB colludes with government to steal our money in contracts, please leave Dangote alone, he is only a businessman, let the government ensure a level playing field for all in all sectors. I am even surprised it is coming from ekt who is a known capitalist and Ajanlekoko who works in telecoms firms that play very very dirty when it comes to killing competitors.

it's always easy to blame the muslim mallam, after all he has no degree foreign or local and he deals with sand sand not highly sophisticated technical products

[quote author=ekt_bear link=topic=774204.msg9271188#msg9271188 date=1317705074]Do you enjoy paying 3X more for cement than the market price?

Did you enjoy his sugar, rice and basic foodstuffs monopolies, causing you to pay more than necessary for goods?[/quote]is it his fault people are paying theat much, he is not the only one with a license for cement, he has the biggest plant in nigeria go and blame the rest for just importing cement and telling stories every year about their expansion plants

monopoly is the fault of the government you vote in not the fault of the man who is taking advantage

go chase the people you vote for! and your sw brothers adenuga and the other diesel baron
and the other 'abroad degrees' bankers who cant deliver real jobs

after the last African games and the Olympics in beijing many state governors from that region promised the next champions will be from the riverine area

apparently they are natural born swimmers, nothing has been heard ever since, not even an Olympic sized swimming pool _{except in gloryland}

The processes are familiar, the language, the society and perhaps weather and education system

has anyone actually taken the train since

apart from the test run from lagos to ilorin which was aborted/diverted to ibadan

They've not resumed the service ever since it would appear.

I'd be surprised if many of you in here are not seating pouring salt in your co-workers food just because they are muslims or another tribe other than igbo

so you ask someone their religion he answers muslim, shouldn't you disregard the space for what dominion?

Crazy same people will shout racism when they get elsewhere

funkie dee:
i think dere,s AL-HIKMAH UNIVERSITY. A MUSLIM UNI, y cant the boy go there? @they dnt take in xtians too. the parents of the boy crossed their boundaries, knwing dat the school is a xtian skul. esp dis BOKO HARAM saga thats going arnd in the country. i dnt blame the Uni on that note coz @ this point MUSLIMS ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED since thye believe that killing human beings is not a sin. they are so heartless. although nt all but the bad ones av spoiled the good ones.
but i think the Uni shld state that they dnt want muslims. they are @ fault for nt stating that.

stop luying

this was put together by a newspaper, making some sense out of govt data

and for overall information

just imagine if we have something a bit like this!! ^^

3.If you own a car shop and at the end of the day get a serious who wants to buy any of your cars and also wants to test drive,NOTE:make sure you get about 4 to 5 STAFF that will accompany in the test exercise.



4.If you are a car shop owner and a big time dealer in car deals- NOTE:make sure your have top security guards about 3 to 4 or if possibly 6 top security officials (MOPOL or MILITARY POLICE or ARMY) safe guarding the car shop.When you get a customer that wants purchase a vehicle in the car shop and insisting to test drive the car[b],make sure that about 3 to 4 of the security officials join the test drive exercise for full security over your vehicle[/b].

heheh na wa o

So in total you will have about seven people accompanying you on a test drive plus driver

norrisman:
I dont understand this phobia for debt, I guess it is a Naija thing. I cant remember properly but I can only imagine I must have shared the same ant-debt sentiments when I was in Naija. Life is for the living and as long as you take a loan that is within your means you should be fine. The only thing I have against car loans in Nigeria is the exorbitant borrowing rates, Up to 25% in some instances! Now thats crazy.

I took a car loan 2 years ago with an interst rate of 5.9%. I only have a year left and at the end I would have paid just over £3000 in interest. Life like I said is for the living and that amount is a price I am willing to pay since I know myself and I am not disciplined enough to save up the amount required to buy the car outright over 3 years but I know if I take a oan, I must pay it back otherwise my credit suffers.

mainly because of

job security in Nigeria

the interest is usually killing

the process isnt straight forward not as accessible as it looks on paper

did you tell her you were getting a new job? or travelling

she wanted to bill you depending on your current status
