well he couldn't provide a link the judgement was passed live on t.v that what i heard or made up grin if you are having pms sorry mate wink

By the way, if you actually knew Nigeria, you would know that transformation is possible in even a year, it is just to find the right people to get the job done that has ALWAYS and I say ALWAYS been the problem. We have the resources, he have the laws in place, we have manpower, we just do not have the right people in leadership to get the job done. Any person who knows Nigeria will know this has been our fact for decades now.
we don't have the right people/leadership and we don't have the all the laws in place therefore we cant fix it in one year
Malaysia, Singapore and all those countries didn't just click their fingers; they went through the process

Career › Re: Sincere: Advice On My Career by DisGuy: 12:04am On Feb 28, 2008
seems you are free with your boss/directors, i
think you should specifically book an appointment with them
that way you can discuss your workload and your pay and benefits
you should be getting paid for doing more than you do
you should also ask for a binding contract with new job specification and
salary

Tell them about the going rate for the work you do at similar companies and
remind them you will be getting a new qualification- hint you are tempted with
better working environment at other companies at the same time you are committed
as ever to their incompetent self organisation grin

good luck

you are the negotiator not them, comprise a lil get a lot!

Koolking:
"Violations of the electoral law not substantial enough to invalidate election result, Umaru Yar'Adua and Goodluck Jonathan remain validly eletected as President and Vice President of Nigeria" - COURT

In the light of the above comment made by the court to consolidates it ruling on the Presidential Election Tribunal, Please, can someone explain to me what 'Electoral Laws' are for? Why wasting time making the laws when Politicans and the so called INEC/Court do not take into cognizance that the law existence. I don't believe in the validity and legitimacy of the judgment passed by the court. Even from the genesis of that tribunal, I forsaw the 'THE POWER OF INCUMBENCY' over-riding others.

Its pathetic, the nation wept,
well thats why the matter was in court and the learned fellows passed a judgement based on the law, so what else you want? undecided

nation wept? I think there should be a poll, I reckon most nigerians were happy/satisfied with the ruling, 85% of the people interviewed on tv yesterday were happy/satisified, the others wanted a re-run though they still expect yaradua to win wink

Someone should caution and advice William Gallas on how to behave as a captain. What the heck was he thinking fuming and ranting like a baby. He should grow up.

Adebayo whats up? Are you still having grudge against Bendtner? There was this glaring opportunity that would have made a difference had he but passed the ball to Bendtner.
exactly! the guy was juts crying like a baby, he actually made it worse, i am sure they'll show him the video,so he can see how silly he looks tongue

Bendter and ade are not even passing to each other, I don't get those guys o, RVP & Rosicky should come back sharp sharp

maybe adebayor should be paired with Theo once in a while upfront instead of Bendter or perhaps Adebayor with Hleb just behind

It's equally an important issue to debate on.

The level of harassment and exposure to indecent dressing that these legislators face esp from females is very high.

You will never know until you are close to one of them. Try finding out.

maybe when they equip the police properly and follow due process they can sue their tormentors

I think you should find out the schools that actually offer journalism
select the top four you'll like to attend
contact them or their student union about subject required for their journalism course

or you can just pass all your 'arts' subjects very well and you are good to go

So, How many man hours will they spend on this issue?? At the end of the day, how much will it have cost the Nigerian peoplehuh And does yar adua not know that he is wasting Nigeria's money by allowing such huh I will not be shocked if it all comes to millions of Naira at the end of the day spent "deliberating" this one, LMAO!! I wonder how much was spent arguing over last year's fiasco.


OTHER SIDE OF ME
=============

I don't know how bad things have gotten down there in Nigeria enough to say the bill is not needed. It might be necessary but then again, how many hours will be logged discussing this is my only issue.
now I know you don't know how these things work!!!
the president is not a school prefect per se! those people are
supposed to be acting on behalf of their constituents not only the president

most people refer to them as Arabs don't they, whenever we talk about Africa there's always the 'Sub-Saharan Africa bit that is used to differentiate African Arabs and other Africans

Those guys are just too goood! very dedicated, organised and determined! i never hear them complain about match bonus unlike some people cool, we never hear stories like one chairman want to give them speech during half-time their officials are not desperate to go on foreign trips
Politics › Re: Yar'adua Did Not Spend A Dime Of His Security Vote by DisGuy: 4:58am On Feb 11, 2008
[font=Comic Sans MS Unicode]The problem with wishing for a revolution (non-violent or otherwise) is the same problem of wishing for quick solutions. Even if you waved a magic wand and made every Nigerian the living embodiment of altruism, and every policy mandate of the government a perfect one it will still take about ten to twenty years to half the poverty level and reduce it from some 70 million people to about 35 million people. Revolutions do not work, incremental change works. It is not glamorous, it doesn't come with slogans and fancy chants. It's not inspirational. It simply works. One year is better than the next, and those years add up over time. It's not marching to Abuja and then flying back to wherever you came from. It's not dropping trash in front of politicians houses or in related news kidnapping their fathers and mothers.[/font]

[font=Cosmic Sans MS Unicode]Let me give you an example of what i mean. So you come to power as this new enlightened leader in Nigeria after your revolution. One of your main planks is that you will fix the power situation immediately. The first thing someone tells you. Well we have 5,000 MW and we need 20,000 MW, what should we do? You say, build the power plants. (Notice it is about $1 million a MW and each will take about 2-3 years to build.) Then someone says, oh i forgot all these power plants need to be powered and since we are environmentally concious we cannot use coal. So we use gas. Then they tell you, there are no facilities for gas stripping in Nigeria in the quantities that we would need. Then you say lets build the gas strippers. Then someone says, there is no way to get the gas to the power plants. Then you say let them build pipes to transport the gas. There are no pipe manufacturers of sufficient quality. Then you say let us build the pipe manufacturer and import pipes to start. Finally you have fixed the generation problem. Wait someone then says, our transmission network is too small to carry all this new power we have. You say improve the transmission network. So you do that. Wait someone says, the distribution network is also horrible, we cannot transmit power to the people without losing 50% of it. You say, fix it.[/font]

[font=Cosmic Sans MS Unicode]Because the people love you they believe you when you say after this five year plan you will have constant power supply. Then you announce your new tarrifs to enable your electricity system to work properly with proper incentives for mainteneance and capital expenditure. Wait someone says, this price is to high for the common man. No one will pay it. We should pay the old price. But you say that if we do that no one will do the power in Nigeria. We don't care the price has to remain the same. Government has to subsidise. All your contractors melt away because they are not trusting the recovery of billions of dollars of capital expenditure to a government subsidy.
[/font]

[font=Cosmic Sans MS Unicode]Oh and I also forgot to mention that in Nigeria currently you don't have even close to a third of the skilled people that you would need to execute a project of this nature. However I didn't throw that in because it might make it a bit too difficult for your revolution.

The Buhari/Idiagbon regime already gave us a look at what can be accomplised in a very short time in that same country. Why can't we see that we have already seen a sample, all we need to do now is implement the same and this time make sure it is carried out to the end with no interruptions?? The way to make sure there is no interruption of any kind is if the people of Nigeria will take it upon themselves to control the process more than these can.
dont know much about buhari/idiagbon only heard they were strict guys all in all the situation then was different, they are military dictators who were almost almost unanswerable to no one

I do not even know how to handle that response from you but did it ever occur to you that the Situation in Afghanistan and Iraq can not be compared to what we have in Nigeria today?? We are speaking of a country with issues that have been caused by internal forces?Huh Internal forces that happen to be expendable ( humans)?? I think you if you are looking for examples, you should try places like singapore or dubai when you want to understand what can happen when the people themselves decide it is time for change and nothing less will do.
I was refering to this strategy. . .
Debo, baby steps will not get us anywhere. . . The longer the process the more we are likely to lapse back to our demented ways.

Considering how terrible things are in Nigeria, , ,Nothing short of a cataclysmic revolution is required, . . .quick, sharp and decisive.
Dithering or symbolic gestures of good sense in the form of reform will not work.
Failed or devastated states need leaders that can inspire, excite and create belief. The power of their vision and the forcefulness of
their character negate the compromise that characterises Nigerian politics.

[quote author=dtw_sola link=topic=110988.msg1931730#msg1931730 date=1202447476]Lewis Hamilton is a very popular black (mixed race) F1 driver. He had tremendous success last year but ended up not winning. There has never been a successful black race car driver, so he's kind of a big deal understandably, but a part of his popularity has to do with incessant British hype.[/quote]incessant British hype? a rookie came close to winning his first season in F1, you think those journalist are driving the car with their ink? phew!
successful F1 driver are always popular anyway

I totally disagree, the American army were supposed to be quick,sharp and decisive in Iraq and Afghanistan, they are still there today messed everything up- they didn't even know the difference between Shiite and Sunni-this is a perfect example so kobojunkie back off grin

Considering the extent of decay of many institutions in nigeria, well-thought out concrete plans are needed to form the foundations of real change in our society
