Arab countries especially Saudi Arabia and the North African countries, France,Germany and SA especially the white citizens although blacks there are extremely xenophobic. Last but not least is Russia

She probably wrote this to cause a stir,just a cheap blogger looking for publicity. Anyway im not surprised,people are commercialising marriage no wonder the rate of divorce is increasing.

Abuse of autotune and it kind of sounds like Girl by Bracket & Wizkid

Can East Africa, and North Africa join the middle east to form their own continent, please?

Because West Africans are attractive to look at? Please cut it with the insults. Very ignorant post

marshal4us: @dayamante, prezzo being ur country guy makes no point. D issue was dat prezzo ws drunk and cant contain al malice he's bin havin for dkb. He was jst frustrated dat he had lost alliance wit ma sis, goldie, nw he wanted to use al available tool to fight dkb. He (dkb) didnt say anytin to goldie about prezzo jst dat she had discoverd d animal in prezzo. Dkb, i'm beginin to like him cos he's being himself. Dnt be surprised dat prezzo's gona hav problem roki. Dat guy is practically using prezzo while he protects his runs wit maneta. Roki is more mature than prezzo and he'll be home soon cos al votes frm west africa wil always go to dkb. Roki is stil good because ola, chris or luke ar yet to hit upville.

Dkb IS two faced,anyone can see that..when he was reported to Barbz after saying that she acts like the queen he started trying to defend himself and trying to hide behind mampi

are you in support of dkb?he is a snake and he is trying to put the blame on others but his attempts proved to be futile. Even if prezzo iritates he tells it like it is,no sugarcoating anything just to suit people. And furthermore he is my countryman so whether he irritates or not al vote for him

Drama drama drama tonight in upville... First it was Roki and Maneta at each others throats then Roki and Dkb and finally the showdown btwn Prezzo and snake dkb who was finally exposed for the two faced person that he is

surely you forget how Uti was the king of gossip in his season of BBA

Maybe she has a tooth cavity,causes a really bad odour. Just buy her mouth wash and encourage her to use peppermint gum frequently to ensure fresh breath always as she has to ensure high standards of mouth hygiene

Zediccus: As a lawyer, (though not yet called to the bar) i don't really fancy the wig thing. But try suggesting this to a practising lawyer and it will likely meet a brick wall. It wldn't even be seen as a form of colonial mentality, rather it represents wisdom, respect, pride and what-have-you.

pls tell them

'Truth is,everyone is going to hurt you.You just gotta find the one's worth suffering for.'

'The good thing about music is once it hits you you feel no pain'

'The greatness of a man is not determined by his wealth but by his integrity and ability to influence those around him positively.'
'Dont gain the world and lose your soul for wisdom is better than silver and gold.'

djeezy: Nice question. Looking at it functionally, It is a practice set aside by the legal luminaries and not a contrivance to intimidate the public. The legal proffesion is prestigious and we protect our dignity at all cost. We are the common law colony and our judicial system is akin to that of the British. The wig was received and they stoped? How would it make us look if we stop? We are not zombies or robots. We have a mind of our own.

This is the same arguement most lawyers in Kenya gave when it was abolished,that it makes the legal profession be taken less seriously but personally i was happy.As long as i have that certificate that declares i am an Advocate of the High Court the rest does not matter

joudini:

Rid yourself of subjective illusions. The English you just spat here is not effective communication.

What the poster is trying to do is just comparative analysis. He is trying to know why a practice is being continued when the originator seem to have discontinued it. And you musnt forget that many countries are discontinuing it.

If l may ask, if the British, THE ORIGINATOR, didnt start the practice of donning this blonde hair, wouldnt you have had any other jewel of wisdom, dignity and professional ethic?

The British who started it are withdrawing it, is that denying the profession of wisdom and competence?

Many other professions dont have a specific tin foil hat, does that make them lacking in wisdom?

Other professions are intimated of lawyers? Where did you pull that from? Ur arss?

He has used latin terms in his post..Excuse him as most lawyers tend to be arrogant but really the wig is quite unnecessary but trust Africans to continue with western habits then we blame them for foreign domination

djeezy: Bewildering labyrinth of facts, blustering desire for publicity. Standing on the protocol already established I consider this thread another ignorance by the hoi polloi. I do not understand why you dimwits, cretins and simpletons here would tell us how to go about the ethics of our proffesion ipso facto. It is beyond your personal voyage or your capacity to raise it as an issue, leave it in situ. Having read your comments supra, it was filled with sheer ignorance by those who call themselves educated. Abolishment of the wig is for us to decided, the NBA is there. We do not need your opinions. Suffice it not to mention what the wig symbolizes hereunder;
*It is a symbol of wisdom and wisdom comes with old age.
*It is our proffesional ethics and a symbol of dignity.
*It is our common usage and consciousness mutatis mutandis to the attires and dress code of other proffesions. In this same wise it is part of our Nigerian legal system. We lawyers should stop wearing the wig?? Do you hoi polloi here feel INTIMIDATED? Oh i get it. The law will not make you love us but it will at least prevent you from lynching us. Pls mind your own business and stop acting whimsical. You can sue me...

Learned friend im sure most people will not understand the legal terms you have used above but pls sir how does the wig and gown add prestige to the profession?being a lawyer in itself is already prestigious enough so i do not see the need for the gown

They banned them in Kenya already..the Chief Justice said its aping our colonial masters and that the climate makes them stuffy and uncomfortable due to humidity..Thank God because i could not picture myself in that as a lawyer

It is the divide and rule method employed by the Europeans that set us on the destruction path that we are in today.The fact that the colonialists considered certain tribes to be superior to others has contributed immensely to the current state of affairs. But they are not solely to be blamed for this because we Africans have condemned ourselves to this kind of mentality and unless we change we are doomed.

Also neo colonialism is a contributing factor..most of the African nations lean towards their former colonial masters who shove their policies and ideas down our throats that are detrimental for our growth in exchange for loans and grants. I salute Gaddafi because he proved that an african country can do without the western nations and prosper even more without them.

I can go on and on but until the day Africans take iniative and decide that WE are in charge of our own destiny is when things will get better for us

love_life: Among all the various ethnic groups that lay claim to the geopolitical or geospatial enclave so-called Nigeria, i've met Hausas, Ibos, Yorubas (my clan), Fulanis, Ijaws, Ebiras and many other various tribes but i've never met a Nigerian. Do you want to know why? It's simple, in reality Nigeria doesn't exist. What you have is a bunch of mismatched tribes competing against themselves for the domination of the colonially defined territory they have found themselves in. The global recognition granted the so-called Nigeria as an independent sovereignty among the comity of nations is nothing but fiction. In other words, Nigeria is a fictitious entity designed by powerful colonial States to maintain the status quo of their cultural superiority over it and to prevent any individual tribe in the region from achieving self-actualization into a sovereign State that can gain political ascendancy to challenge the supremacy of the powers that be as it relates to nationhood. Now, tell me how or why should I have hope in a forking country that doesn't forking exist? I have no hope in Nigeria whatsoever, not even by an infinitesimal amount. Our politicians and rulers all these wasted years have been willing to play the 'Nigeria' game with the rest of the world only because it made them extremely rich. The moment they can no longer 'cash-in' money through the imaginary cashcow called Nigeria, then it will be game over. This is my personal opinion and I'm not influencing or suggesting that anyone should follow suit. However, I think the earlier we all go our forking separate ways, then the forking better it's gonna get for all of us. The Nigerian State does not exist and the Nigerian citizen is an elaborate hoax; there are no real Nigerian citizens. Like I said before, all we have are Yorubas, Hausas, Ibos, Fulanis, Urobos, Ebiras, Ijaws, Efiks and the rest of them other tribes.

This poster has summarized the whole topic perfectly

GAR3TH: As homophobic as I am what i really cant stand is the utter Bigotry I keep seeing on Nairaland. Every time a gay thread opens you see people flood it with bible quotes, praising the lord etc. But isn't it the same Bible that also condemns polygamy, divorce, monogamy, lifelong celibacy, adultery, Gluttony etc because they are also sin. So How many Nairalanders are FAT, then in that case you are going to hell for gluttony. How many Nairalanders are divorced or remarried, well your going to hell because that is a sin.

My point is you just cant pick and choose what is sin or what is not. You just cant say that Homosexuality is a sin and divorcing, polygamy or gluttony is not. That call being a Bigot, either everything that is stated in the bible is sin or every thing is not, Simple.

pls tell them..too much hypocrisy on NL

And Jesus said that there shall be many false prophets who shall come in his name...surely the end times are coming

Adaeze003: ^^^ coming from a guy? I'm impressed.. ..

seconded!

190: excuse me but who's whizz kid

just a kid who cant sing and abuses autotune in his songs

maclatunji: Men and women are not equal, but there has to be equity. A woman will always have some men she is ahead of in many matters. So, it is not a one-size-fits-all thing. However, if you are talking about Husband and wife, the husband is definitely the leader.

gbam this is it...people should learn that equality and equity are two entirely different things

logicboy:



Is your religion stupidity?

i wont even bother with you

rokiatu: Is marriage the only pathway to happiness? Just asking.

Im wondering the same thing too

fubbyy: @image123 what about the pastors preaching with their laptops?

Or even ipads?

Correct me if im wrong but atheists dont believe in the God's existence right? But the fact that they dont BELIEVE is already an acknowledgement of God already

knowledge4: IT IS A RISK TO STAND SURETY FOR ANYONE.
BEFORE YOU DO SO, UNDERSTAND THE IMPLICATIONS BEFORE YOU COMMIT YOURSELF.
DO NOT EVER DO IT BLINDLY FOR ANYONE,EVEN YOUR BLOOD BROTHER.

I agree with you,i dont think many people understand the magnitude of being a surety for someone else.
