SIX TYPES OF PEOPLE YOU MEET IN THE
BANKING HALL
1. The Pen Borrowers: They are always in the
bank, common pen they don't have. These
people are very dangerous, once you borrow
them the pen, you may find it difficult to
identify them. In a bank in Nigeria, once
someone tells you "may I have your pen?"
Believe me , that's the last time you will see
that pen (except if you're fortunate).
2. The "I dey your Back" Team: Immediately
they enter the bank, even before taking the
slip (withdrawal or deposit) all they do is to
know the last person and you hear them
saying, I'm at your back. If care is not taken,
about 8 people can tell you"I dey your back",
then at the end of the day, they cause
confusion (na me dey hin back, I don tell am I
was here before you blah blah...)
3. The No Protocol Team: This kind of people
don't obey the 1st come, 1st served slogan!
They're mouthed in the bank! Immediately they
come in, they just walk up to the cashier or
manager, he asks them to sit down and within
5 minutes, they've completed their
transactions while you're still there on the
queue.
4. The Bank Door Rejectees: These people will
always have a problem with the bank door,
then you see them removing their belts, car
keys, mobile phones etc and yet the machine
keeps shouting "Please go back". Free Advice
to such people; next time, come to the bank
naked! I'm sure the bank door won't reject you
this time.
5. The Slip Wasters: These kind of people
waste slips a lot! To fill the withdrawal slip or
deposit slip is a tough one for them. You see
them cancelling, tearing, squeezing and taking
another one. To write 3,780 Naira in words is
like writing a WAEC exam. Even the so-called
undergraduates are found wanting in this
scenario!
6. The People From Another Planet: These
people usually behave like they don't live in
this world! They will always be asking for
today's date, even after telling them, they
would still ask someone else.
Let's know the category you fall into!!...

Treble-chasing Barcelona are La Liga champions for the fifth time in seven years after a clinical Lionel Messi strike secured a 1-0 victory away to Atletico Madrid that wrapped up the title on Sunday, with a game to spare.
Cristiano Ronaldo hit a hat-trick for Real Madrid in their 4-1 victory away to Espanyol but Barca cannot be caught now with a four-point lead.
Messi combined with Pedro Rodriguez and then slotted home from the centre of the penalty area with 65 minutes on the clock.
It was a cagey game but the talent of the Argentine shone through again to break the deadlock and help Luis Enrique to his first piece of silverware at the helm of Barcelona, in his debut season.
The Catalan side have dominated the list of La Liga titles in recent years and remain on course to repeat their trophy treble of 2009.
They are through to the Champions League final on June 6 to face Juventus and will play Athletic Bilbao in the King's Cup showpiece on May 30.

I will never do that to me its wrong to be a babymama why not instead be his wife and give him all the babies he wants

i knw you are pretending. dnt you knw dat we are talking abt money he is ready to give u anything just give him a baby.

A good number of ladies are baby mamas and they find happiness in it. So ladies if you have the chance to be a baby mama for a rich and loving guy will you?
let's hear you out.

if u know u cnt handle it, don't do it

what's the essence of going into a marriage that will end up in a divorce?

Hila12:
Nice point!

I agree on the love him/her first before going into a relationship.

However, I think not every true relationship would lead to marriage in the end. A relationship is a compatibility test not every romance survives. Sometimes good relationships fail for every right reason, and irrespective of the love/sacrifice/loyalty both parties share, they still might be very much incompatible. Hence a breakup for good.

That's the idea of relationships, no one knows the end from the beginning. Allow the relationship progress naturally, and if doesn't, that does not mean it was a false relationship.

chop knuckle, you said it all

I believe the most important thing in a relationship should be happiness.Getting married doesn't guarantee happiness. Engaging in boyfriend & girlfriend relationship and having kids may be the genuine source of happiness.
what do you think about this?

11 May, 1981 - 34yrs remembrance of a legend Bob Marley

987–99. He was
Chairman of Nation House Press Ltd, Kaduna,
from 1995 to 1999.
Early Political Career
During the Second Republic (1979–83),
Yar'Adua was a member of the leftist People's
Redemption Party, while his father was briefly
the National Vice chairman of the National Party
of Nigeria. During the Transition Programme of
President Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida,
Yar'Adua was one of the foundation members of
the Peoples Front, a political association under
the leadership of his elder brother, the late
Major-General Shehu Musa Yar'Adua. That
association later fused to form the Social
Democratic Party. Yar'Adua was a member of
the 1988 Constituent Assembly. He was a
member of the party's National Caucus and the
SDP State Secretary in Katsina and contested
the 1991 Governorship election, but lost to
Saidu Barda, the candidate of the National
Republican Convention and an ally of Babangida.
In 1999, he ran for the same position and won.
He was re-elected in 2003. He was the first
governor to publicly declare his assets.
In the year of 2000, during his administration as
governor, Katsina became the fifth northern
Nigerian state to adopt sharia, or Islamic law. In
2002 Amina Lawal, a woman from Katsina, was
sentenced to death by stoning by a sharia court
in the town of Bakori for committing adultery;
the story attracted international attention. Her
sentence was at first upheld by a court in the
town of Funtua, then overturned a year later
following an appeal.
According to a public hearing that was carried
out shortly after his death in May 2010, there
has never being a Governor like him in the
history of Katsina State.
Governor Ibrahim Shema of Katsina State has
attributed the achievements recorded in the
state to the sagacity of former governor and late
President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. The late
Yar’Adua was governor for eight years in Katsina
State from 1999 to 2007 before he was
succeeded by the incumbent.
James Danjuma Reported to the National Mirror
on May 30, 2013 that;
Shema said the late Yar’Adua worked very hard
as governor to provide dividends of democracy
for his people and after he had left, people were
still talking about the good things he did.
The governor said some of the important
projects the late Yar’Adua had begun before he
became President were completed by his
administration because they had positive bearing
on the people.
Shema, who was speaking during the Democracy
Day celebration event in the state, thanked
stakeholders for supporting his administration in
the last six years in its efforts to provide
dividends of democracy for the people.
He said with two years before the end of his
administration, the policy of free education for
primary and secondary school students would
be maintained.
Presidential Nomination
On 16–17 December 2006, Yar'Adua was chosen
as the presidential candidate of the ruling PDP
for the April 2007 election, receiving 3,024 votes
from party delegates; his closest rival, Rochas
Okorocha, received 372 votes. Yar'Adua's
success in the primary was attributed to the
support of incumbent President Olusegun
Obasanjo; At the time of his nomination he was
an obscure figure on the national stage, and has
been described as a "puppet" of Obasanjo who
could not have won the nomination under fair
circumstances. Shortly after winning the
nomination, Yar'Adua chose Goodluck Jonathan,
governor of Bayelsa State, as his vice-
presidential candidate.
Another view of the support he received from
President Obasanjo is that he was one of few
serving governors with a spotless record, devoid
of any suspicions or charges of corruption. He
also belonged to the People's Democratic
Movement (PDM) – a powerful political block
founded by his late brother, Shehu Musa
Yar'Adua, who was also Obasanjo's vice
president during his military rule.
In 2007 Umaru Yar'Adua, who suffered from a
kidney condition, challenged his critics to a
game of squash in an endeavor to end
speculations about his health. On 6 March 2007
he was flown to Germany for medical reasons,
further fomenting rumors about his health. His
spokesperson said this was due to stress and
quoted Yar'Adua as saying he was fine and
would soon be back to campaigning. Another
report, which was rejected by Yar'Adua's
spokesperson, claims that Yar'Adua collapsed
after suffering a possible heart attack.
Presidency
In the presidential election, held on 21 April
2007, Yar'Adua won with 70% of the vote (24.6
million votes) according to official results
released on 23 April. The election was highly
controversial. Strongly criticized by observers, as
well as the two primary opposition candidates,
Muhammadu Buhari of the All Nigeria Peoples
Party (ANPP) and Atiku Abubakar of the Action
Congress (AC), its results were largely rejected
as having been rigged in Yar'Adua's favour.
After the election, Yar'Adua proposed a
government of national unity. In late June 2007,
two opposition parties, the ANPP and the
Progressive Peoples Alliance (PPA), agreed to
join Yar'Adua's government.On 28 June 2007,
Yar'Adua publicly revealed his declaration of
assets from May (becoming the first Nigerian
Leader to do so), according to which he had
₦856,452,892 (US$5.8 million) in assets, ₦19
million ($0.1 million) of which belonged to his
wife. He also had ₦88,793,269.77 ($0.5 million)
in liabilities. This disclosure, which fulfilled a
pre-election promise he made, was intended to
set an example for other Nigerian politicians and
discourage corruption.
Yar'Adua's new cabinet was sworn in on 26 July
2007. It included 39 ministers, including two for
the ANPP.
Buhari and Abubakar filed petitions to have the
results of the 2007 presidential election
invalidated due to alleged fraud, but on 26
February 2008 a court rejected the petitions.
Buhari and Abubakar said that they would
appeal to the Supreme Court. Marred by
corruption, many argued that this election was
rigged by Obasanjo as well, as he wanted his
successor to have the same basic ideals that he
possessed as President.
Illness and Death
President Yar'Adua left Nigeria on 23 November
2009, and was reported to be receiving
treatment for pericarditis at a clinic in Saudi
Arabia. He was not seen in public again, and his
absence created a dangerous power vacuum in
Nigeria.
In December 2009 Oluwarotimi Odunayo
Akeredolu, president of the Nigerian Bar
Association (NBA), stated that Yar'Adua should
have handed over power to Vice-President
Goodluck Jonathan in an acting capacity during
his illness, a statement that was backed up by
the NBA national executive committee. On 22
January 2010, the Supreme Court of Nigeria
ruled that the Federal Executive Council (FEC)
had fourteen days to decide a resolution on
whether Yar'Adua was "incapable of discharging
the functions of his office". The ruling also
stated that the Federal Executive Council should
hear testimony of five doctors, one of whom
should be Yar'Adua's personal physician.
On 9 February 2010, the Senate controversially
used the "doctrine of necessity" to transfer
Presidential Powers to Vice President Goodluck
Jonathan, and declared him Acting President,
with all the accompanying powers, until
Yar'Adua returned to full health. The power
transfer, considered illegal by some, has been
called a "coup without the word" by opposition
lawyers and lawmakers. However, there are
others that felt the power vacuum would lead to
instability and a possible military takeover.
On 24 February 2010, Yar'Adua returned to
Abuja. His state of health was unclear, but there
was speculation that he was still on a life
support machine. Various political and religious
figures in Nigeria had visited him during his
illness saying he would make a recovery.
Yar'Adua died on 5 May at the Aso Rock
Presidential Villa. An Islamic burial took place on
6 May in his hometown in Katsina
Reactions
The Federal Government of Nigeria declared a
seven-day mourning period. Acting President
Goodluck Jonathan said "Nigeria has lost the
jewel on its crown and even the heavens mourn
with our nation tonight. As individuals and as a
nation we prayed for the recovery of Mr
President. But we take solace in the fact that the
Almighty is the giver and taker of all life."
US President Barack Obama offered condolences,
stating: "He was committed to creating lasting
peace and prosperity within Nigeria's own
borders, and continuing that work will be an
important part of honoring his legacy."
Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, in his
tribute, wrote, “What passes for the Nigerian
nation is nothing more than a tragic arena, and
Yar‘Adua is only the latest tragic figure. The
vampires, including those within his own family,
turned him into a mere inert resource for their
diabolical schemes. They have a reckoning with
their conscience, assuming they know what the
word means. One can only hope that, while
mouthing sanctimonious platitudes such as
‘Power belongs to God,’ they have now learned
that the politics of Do-or-Die cannot guarantee
who does and who dies. They must stop playing
God. I pray for the repose of the soul of their
latest, much abused innocent victim.

May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace!
Umaru Musa Yar'Adua (16 August 1951 –
5 May 2010) was the President of Nigeria
and the 13th Head of State. He served as
governor of Katsina State in northern
Nigeria from 29 May 1999 to 28 May
2007. He was declared the winner of the
controversial Nigerian presidential
election held on 21 April 2007, and was
sworn in on 29 May 2007. He was a
member of the ruling People's Democratic
Party (PDP). In 2009, Yar'Adua left for
Saudi Arabia to receive treatment for
pericarditis. He returned to Nigeria in
2010, where he died on 5 May.

There are a lot of unsolved mysteries out there in
the world. It’s always our hope that someday,
with the proper amount of science and research,
we’ll be able to solve them. However, it’s more
likely that these burning questions will remain
unanswered. As far as these mysteries are
concerned, all we have are photographs and
pictures to puzzle over and wrack our brains
about, hoping that an answer will reveal itself.
1. The Woman In The Brown Coat.
The woman in the brown coat, or the Babushka
Lady as she was later called by the FBI, was very
close to JFK when he was assassinated in Dallas.
According to eyewitnesses, this woman filmed the
entire thing. It’s thought that from her vantage
point, she may have been able to answer some
critical questions about what really happened that
day. However, the FBI was never able to track her
down, and no one has since been able to figure
out the identity of this mystery observer.
2. The Dyatlov Pass Incident.
In 1959, a group of nine experienced Soviet
mountaineers died mysteriously in the Ural
Mountains. The photo below was taken by the
rescue crew. According to the rescuers, the hikers
ripped open their tent and ran out barefoot into
the snow trying to escape from something. Six of
the hikers died of hypothermia, two died of major
chest fractures, and one hiker suffered severe
head injuries. Alarmingly, he was also missing his
tongue. If that wasn’t strange enough, the
clothing worn by the hikers was suddenly highly
radioactive.
3. The Phoenix Lights.
On March 13, 1997, a series of bright unidentified
lights appeared over the city of Phoenix, Arizona
and remained there, completely stationary, for
hours. The Air Force said that the lights were
flares dropped for a training exercise. However,
the lights reappeared over Phoenix in 2007 and
2008. They still have not been explained.
4. Solway Firth Astronaut.
Jim Templeton took this photo of his daughter
while they were out for the day. At the time of the
photo, Templeton didn’t notice anything strange
in the marsh area where they were. However,
after the film was developed, he noticed what
appeared to be a spaceman standing right behind
his daughter. There was no one else around when
the photo was taken, and Kodak even weighed in,
saying that the film was not altered in any way.

6. Mystery thumb.
This photo of four friends for some reason has an
extra thumb in it. Just look at the boy in the
black on the right. Where could that thumb by his
right ear have come from?
7. Black Knight Satellite.
Supposedly, there is an ancient, dark object that
has been orbiting Earth for the last 13,000 years
called the “Black Knight Satellite.” No one knows
how it got there, its purpose, or even who started
calling it the “Black Knight.” The photo above was
taken during an American space shuttle mission
to the International Space Station in 1998.
7. Edna Cintron.
Photographs of the gaping hole in the South
Tower taken on 9/11 show a woman, identified as
Edna Cintron, at the edge of the hole waving for
help. How Cintron managed to survive the initial
impact of the plane into the building has never
been explained.
8. Falcon Lake Incident.
On May 20, 1967, Stefan Michalak was in the
woods near Falcon Lake, Manitoba, Canada when
he saw two cigar shaped UFOs land close by.
When a door on one of the crafts opened,
Michalak heard voices, and then tried to
communicate with the beings inside. He
approached the door of the craft, but couldn’t
make out anything inside except for what he
described to be a “maze of lights.” Suddenly, the
aircraft’s door closed, and the object began to
rise. It then expelled some sort of hot air at
Michalak through a grid-like vent that caused his
shirt to erupt in flames. At a local hospital,
doctors were puzzled by the grided burn pattern
all across Michalak’s chest, which you can see in
the photo above.
9. The Time Traveler.
This photo was taken in 1941 at the reopening of
the South Forks Bridge in Canada. At first glance
it looks like any other picture from the time. But if
you look more closely, something isn’t quite
right. There is one man dressed in modern
clothing among the hats and suit jackets of the
1940s. He also seems to be holding a modern
camera.
10. The Madonna With Saint Giovannino.
This is one of the most famous unexplained
images of all time. While the focus of the picture
is on Mary, something creepy hovers above her
left shoulder. There’s an object that appears to
be some sort of UFO hovering above the cliffs.
Just below it you can see a man and his dog
looking up at the saucer.
