LMAyedun: Forget it... Those guys will never speak up. They've failed the Okun people.

Senator Smart Adeyemi is a big let down. He is busy eating PDP crumbs in Abuja. He is so rich he has an hotel under construction opposite chida hotel in Utako Abuja.

I sit in my study silently: head-bowed, pensive and all alone on a pitch black, cold and wet December night sometime in the distant past. It is after midnight, the guard dogs are on the prowl and have long been released, the wind is blowing fiercely and it is pouring with rain outside. What a fearful and stormy night this is: it feels as if the elemental forces have unleashed their full power against we mortals and all the occupants of the earth. Such a sad, angry and lonely night.
Everyone in the house is fast asleep except me. I sit back, meditate and reflect. My sadness almost overwhelms me as I think of the ugly events of the last few weeks and months. I ask myself, who was right and who was wrong? Where did the two of us go so badly wrong that we cannot even talk again or care to find out how one another are faring? Where did all the suspicion, bitterness and hurt suddenly spring from?
Where did it all start and when did our love suddenly end? Is it possible for love to turn to such deep hatred overnight? Can three years of love, friendship, fellowship, special moments and trust be wiped away by three months of doubt, betrayal, acrimony, deceit and a frenzy of blind rage, harsh words and mutual suspicion. All these thoughts race through my mind as the tears silently run down my cheeks on this lonely and stormy night.
My soul is deeply wounded and my spirit weeps and groans with pain. In truth my heart has been broken. Yes I too can talk about “this heart of mine”. I too have a heart just like the one she often writes about in her short yet beautiful prose. And this heart of mine has been shattered into a thousand pieces.
All appears to be lost and there seems to be no longer any reason to live. Then suddenly and out of the blue I remember St. Barts. That distant West Indian island where it all began many years ago. I remember the white sands, the deep blue sea, the peaceful and empty beaches where no other soul could be heard or seen for many miles around. I remember the thousand stars that lit up the night, the bright and warm morning sun, the gentle breeze of the summer wind and the starch-white seagulls hovering to and fro: that was the beautiful paradise called St. Barts.
It was our island. It existed for just her and I. I remember the ecstasy that we both shared there. I remember the levels of passion that we attained. I remember how our souls touched with orgasmic pleasure. I remember that refreshing “La Vie En Rose” smile from this goddess of the Delta and this God-sent child. That smile that filled me with joy and made me throw back my head and roar with laughter. She brought passion, hope, strength and inspiration into my life. She ushered in a refreshing wave of blissful love and proved to me that I had every reason to live.
We made love on that beach over and over again and the light blue sky, the deep blue sea, the beautiful white sand, the twinkling stars and the bright yellow sun of St. Barts bore witness to our conjugal nights and our sacred union. This is a memory that I shall never forget and it is one that I shall cherish till the day that I die. The Lord may take La Vie En Rose away from me but He will never take away the joyous memories of our time together in St. Barts. Those memories alone wipe away the misery of this sad, lonely and stormy night.
Those memories alone are the evidence of the love that we once shared. Those memories alone are what shall give me strength and keep me going until I find love again. Those memories alone are what will sustain me through the darkest hours of each lonely night. Those memories alone will give me the courage to move on and live my life without La Vie En Rose by my side. I love you, O God sent child. I always will. And one day we shall return to St. Barts and have one more night of making love on that beautiful beach under the light of the moon and a thousand stars.


One day we shall return to our island and enjoy one last night of unrestrained pleasure and passion where our bodies, souls and spirits will be as one again. One day we shall return to our dream and on that day we shall look into each others eyes and once again roar with laughter as if we had no care in the world and as if there were no tomorrow. I thank God for the time we shared at St. Barts and I thank Him for the three beautiful, tumultuous, tempestuous and delightful years that I spent with La Vie En Rose. She was vivacious, fresh and effervescent. She had more passion and drive than anyone that I had ever met. For her the sky was the limit and no one could hold her down.
She was our very own Khaleesi, the Mother of Dragons. She was our Helen of Troy whom men could not resist. She was our Cleopatra for whom kings gave away their kingdoms. She was our very own Calypso for whom mortals gave away their liberty and souls. She was our Mermidan Queen, a princess of the southern seas and a goddess of the Delta.  She was wild and free. She was indeed the God-sent child.

calaway: What does any body with brains expect? these bokoharam sponsoring politicians including senator Ndume are only exercising their hate for GEJ. If they can sponsor bokoharam who kill innocent Nigerians children and women inclusive, crossing carpet is just like drinking nunu. Pay no attention to their smiles and poise these people hate and despise Jonathan and all he stands for and the Nigerians that voted him president (But they are aware that GEJ has 100000000000 X their combined powers and so they can only kill others, criticize ,sabotage and try to make Nigeria ungovernable, but they cannot not addressed him directly ) after all they never voted for him in 2011 and he still does not need their vote in 2015.
Nigerians have eyes to see and a brain to understand whats going on. GEJ humility, selflessness and continuing determination to keep this country united against all wicked odds will be rewarded by good Nigerian (of cause those quota and mediocre Nigerians with hate in their hearts can do as they wish, Inconsequential gragra)!!!!

Yawnnnnn.

slick1: The desire for a change can be so dangerous most times that i makes on blind to the truth...
If we criticise these lawmakers as being overly corrupt while in the PDP,does decamping to APC all of a sudden make them saints?...

Did you critize them when they were in PDP? BTW,they are now new creatures. We are going to reform them in APC. We are going to start like this;
Say after me..
1-Stealing is corruption.
2-It is wrong to buy 2 BMWs for 255million with tax payers money while using fake results
3-I will give a damn over asset declaration......etc.
Add yours please

shizzle11: bunch of hypocrites! PDP is better of without them

And when Chime decamps you would say that too. All well meaning Nigerians are hereby advised join APC now.

mad nigerian: PDP should have made effort to sort out its internal issues.

And it is time we made Rotational presidency part of the constitution.....will end much of this nonsense.

You Monika says you're mad. Need I say more.

ilugunboy: These people are terrible in human and crises management .....in less than 3 years in the saddle of PDP, they've managed to dismantle the party into pieces.

Gej shouldn't be in charge of anything apart from his joystick.

patriotic007: Right from time topics that insult or paint GEJ in bad light makes from page in a twinkle of an eye but topics about GEJ's achievements and those that show him as a Good president never make front page,....Nairaland has long been a progressive congress,...SMH

Gej and. Achievement cannot be in the same sentence. Gej us a failure to us that voted for him and not for PDP.

ogologodimkpa: Did I hear Moslem Brotherhood?
Moslem gini ?
It can never work instead we'll path ways.
Biafra on my mind...

Did your grandfather tell you anything about Biafra?

hotwax: I am a Yoruba christian. I think Muslims Brotherhood are better than Igbo. They are the worst racist on earth.

Ibos are ingrates simply put. I just pity Jona because by the time APC wins the presidential election in 2015 all Ibo elders will decamp to APC leaving Jona isolated. Herd mentality is a menace in iboland.

superior1: Team Jona for life

Jona is poor at everything. . He can't even keep his party as one. By the time Patience decamps, Jona will be left to cook for himself and wash his own shorts at the villa

[quote author=Love_Decay]More uninspired attempts at saving the divorcee's face. Young man the information you provided above, show how little you understand TCP/IP.

You see mtn provide a large range of dynamic public ip's (41.205.1.005 is an IP address) to its customers . The ip you just shared above has been used on thousands of devices owned by Nigerian's subscribed to mtn's broadband network.

The administrative contact is not the owner of the ip, as I stated mtn assign's dynamic public/private ip. These ip are dynamic simply because when you disconnect your modem or turn of your data service and reconnect your device get a different IP address . However all these IP addresses are registered to mtnnigeria.

Back to the administrative contact, the administrative contact works at mtn, he job is to receive complaints regarding illegal activities on mtn Ip addresses (all of them). Such illegal activities could include spamming , hacking and the likes.

An Internet user will have to have a static ip to get effectively traced, still you will not find his/her name email address and number via such queries you need a court order.

Lastily, the address Golden plaza, is mtnnigeria's head office at Ikoyi near the Catholic Church and just a few blocks away from the Ikoyi secretariat. You can use maps.google.com to verify this.[/quote]I couldn't have put it better. The problem we have in Nigeria today is that you see mediocre everywhere claiming to be experts. Half education is indeed dangerous.

Orlando Owoh: With all sense of modesty, I strongly believe something is wrong with some Ibo people, most especially the ones on NL. Rochas Okorocha, Chris Ngige, Rotimi Amaechi, etc are now abused not because they have dropped in their paces of project execution, but because they joined the APC. The most disgusting of all is that old man called Dede aka DeludedGull.

Its so pathetic my brother. You have Ibo as classmates,business partners,room mates e.t.c and you get along well but when it comes to politics they become irrational and start putting on ethnic cap. My question to my Ibo brothers is: what did you fathers and grand fathers put in your heads that makes you behave like zombieswhen it comes to politics?

atlwireles: Between Dr Okowa, Victor Ochei, Sam Obi the Aniomas political giants are known in the state. I have to disagree with the Elders supporting him. Please don't forget, this is delta state. Utomi will not win an election against those three names in the Northern zone. About not being corrupt, I will leave that discussion for a later day. Just the name APC is enough to send 90% of the voters in Central and Southern zones running away.

Sanity has eluded you.

Garri the 1st: Why are you hypocrites feigning surprise??

Did you expect the ethnic politics to stop with Ngige??

Can't you see that Utomi has joined the party of Awolowo the number one enemy of Ndigbo??

God bless you for this post. The same ethnic politics that stopped Ngige will stop the most qualify of candidate in that region.

mrphysics: is it with free accommodation or are u going to b paying for ur house rent with the 17k?

17k in Ekiti could be equivalent to 70k in Abuja. Its not a bad starting point.

[quote author=Mayor_of_Lagos]We claim we are not contributing crime to the state. Can ibo refugees in Lagos make the same claim?

Your crime level is so bad and pervasive your sister Ngozi, the PR of police command stopped giving any more press report on crime. Everytime she brief press about a crime its a chukudi, obiomma, ifianyi and orkafor. She gave up![/quote]Add Emeka to that list. An Emeka is just arrested in my area for stealing laptop. Omo,see beating.

@op Bend over and stick your baised opinion up your arse. By the way,tell us the state you come from and lets compare your governors performance with Fashola's. Fashola is shoulder high above his peers and has done wonderfully well.

SeaGold: Tinubu, Buhari, Obasanjo...strange bed fellows.

No realignment, coalition, political marriage,will unseat Jonathan in 2015.

The masters of the game of politics are still in PDP. It was tested and confirmed in the Anambra gubernatorial election.


Free air...

Remember you guys called Tinubu and Buhari strange bed fellows?
Did pdp win Anambra guber? Mumu?

[quote author=Igwe.]OBJ is only one person, moreover, he is not even the yoruba leader.
While would one waste time in wooing only one person while voting power belongs to the masses, hence he could not return her daughter elected in the last election.

All we nee in this country is good governance and this I trust GEJ will provide, having purged himself of the political dictators/distractors.[/quote]Like oduah?

[quote author=Detonator-rex]abeg person fit summarize this thing in one sentence? [/quote]Vote APC.

Our leaders grossly underestimate our intelligence.

Don Brutus: pls bro its spelt Igbo, ibo is rather insultive, hope u do take note sha!

Ibo means shameless thief.

I'm still waiting for the first person that will call Mbeki an APC apologist.

Congrats for making us proud ma. God Bless You.

TheObserver: Leaders today can see the need and advantages of having a good name. Even d deeds of her husband radiates on her. Happy birthday Mama Awo.

Happy Birthday Ma.

sCun: Ameobi has no business being in the Super eagles team. Can you imagine him being our main striker vs Italy? The guy is pure shyte!

You still carry tribalism reach here? Na wa for you o.

taharqa2: With all due Respect, and with every Sense of Responsibility, I just need to say this:

[size=14]Gen Buhari is a bladdi HYPOCRITE!!![/size]

dats alll...

So is ojukwu.
I just registered in NL but I've been banned up to three times. Let's see who will ban me for replying this.
