Business / Re: Nigerians Paid More For Kerosene In February – NBS by echelons(m): 7:41am On Mar 14, 2018
Do people really still use Kerosene?

Can't remember the last time I saw that product around me.

There are cleaner and more efficient cooking and lighting fuels..

Electricity for those that are better privileged or cooking Gas for everyone.

I knew it was gonna be a black man. Call it hate or whatever you want, only a stupid man and his wife would buy a such a car for her daughter that's not probably working.
Cars are liability whether you like it or not.

I wouldn't want to say you're stupid.

Getting expensive gift items for loved one has no color boundary.

Rich white people buy expensive toys for their children daily and I haven't seen you condenm it. Please don't rub off your stupid sentiments on all dark ppl.

9. Post Conjugal pain. grin
This is the pain that is caused mostly after sex especially with a guy that squeezed the life out of the breast.
The remedy is to find someone to suck it off...maybe undecided

Politics / Re: What Is The Current Petrol Situation In Your Area? by echelons(m): 6:35pm On Mar 05, 2018
The worst Fuel crisis in Nigeria's recent history. 3 months and counting. Can't forget spending 5hours on queue for fuel on Christmas day at Conoil Filling station, Area 1 Garki.

Buhari has been a monumental failure in a lot of governance indices and the most annoying is his prolonged silence all the time.

And to think that NNPC pays billions monthly for fuel subsidy.. embarassed

Politics / Re: Falana Declares Support For Obasanjo’s Third Force Coalition by echelons(m): 8:46am On Mar 01, 2018
Professor Kingsley Moghalu's declaration for Presidency comes to mind.
Time for young, bright, vibrant minds to take control of decisions in this country.

From a friend's Facebook wall:

So the other day I was with a woman and her 8yrs old daughter, apparently she was helping the little girl with her 'assignment'. The subject, I guess, had to do with social studies or so. All other question she made sure they answered correctly, till it got to this last question.. "Why do you love your country?" The poor girl looked at the mum looking forward to a clue as usual, only for the woman to reply.."Chinenye write anything you like there." The woman stood up and left the child in a state of confusion. The little turned towards me hoping maybe I would help out, but In all honesty I didn't have any answer for her either.

A shame this pretty sums up how MOST of us feel towards this country called Nigeria.

GMBuhari:
lol

hahahahah, i don't know you , i campaigned and will still vote for buhari because i understand the looting agents in every part of the government are the ones frustrating Buhari's effort

BTW I AM FULL BLOOD CONFIRMED YORUBA , no tribalism here

So you'll still vote Buhari so he'll still use another four years to make you even understand better that it's the looting agents that are frustrating his efforts?

I really don't know what more I can say to blind supporters.

Just stepping out of this country for two months has made me understand that we are too docile as a people and the expectations of our government are ridiculously too low that politicians don't bother to sit up. If Germans 'mistakenly' vote Buhari's kind as chancellor, he wouldn't last on the seat beyond 6 months. That's where people expect quality leadership and not in Nigeria when majority and especially people like you don't even have expectation of what their government should do for them.

Peace.

lexy2014:
what will that do 4d school&its standard?
That will be left for the school management to decide, whether they'll work their asses off to make the school greater than the name or the other way around.
It has nothing to do with the dead man, or the fact that he lived a clean life devoid of political intrigues.
Education / Re: Buhari Renames Federal University Ebonyi, Alex Ekwueme University by echelons(m): 2:32pm On Feb 02, 2018
I think it's ok. Alex Ekwueme played clean politics devoid of ethnic bigotry, unprovoked looting of the treasury, and retired at the right time with clean name.
May his soul continue to rest in peace Amen.

TV/Movies / What's Your Best Childhood Christmas Movie. by echelons(m): 6:36am On Dec 25, 2017
It's Christmas and it's that time to bring back fun memories.

What is that special movie that made your Christmas holiday fun?
Mine has always been Home Alone. The movie made my childhood Christmas fun. I thought I had outgrown that movie till I saw the series again last year and it was still hilarious.

So tell me, what has been your best Childhood Christmas Movie?

And Obiano will blindly assent to that nonsense request to withdraw a whopping $1B and he will keep mum.
There's no price tag for human life but for a government that continuously claim to have defeated insurgency within a record time is mind bugging.

$1B is more than 3 State's 2018 budget and half the ECA, it shouldn't be down played like we usually downplay a lot of important matters since this administration came to power.

Impact could have been drastically reduced if only she was wearing helmet while driving a bike, but NO.

We're so careless in this country that simple safety precautions are totally ignored.

90% of the accidents in this country are preventable if only simple safety procedures were taken.

Health, Safety, Environment and First Aid programs should be introduced into our secondary school curriculum while National Orientation Agency should put up programs for the general public.

Rest in Peace, dear dead fellow.
Car Talk / Re: New Vehicle Sales Drop 48% In Q3 by echelons(m): 7:18am On Dec 04, 2017
The economy has been so messed up in this administration that individuals hardly find money to buy "Tokunbo" vehicles let alone Brand New ones. Even buying out Naija used cars is even a daunting challenge for regular folks.

Bulk of the purchases are definitely from government agencies and big commercial companies.

It has never been this bad.. hopefully we wouldn't get it all wrong again in 2019.

Beautiful piece..

Depression is a subtle killer. Everybody suffers it. Men do too, so don't blame it on men or patriachy or whatever you teach your daughters.

The message shouldn't be lost though, we should look out for our brothers, sisters, neighbours who have apparently gone through a horrible phase and show some elements of sensitivity to ease them through the pains.

Car Talk / Re: These Are 6 Signs Your Car Needs An Engine Repair by echelons(m): 7:16am On Nov 12, 2017
My car was overheating and I took it to one of these tech/diagnostic mechanic workshops. The results was so underwhelming.
The pricing of car parts was hiked, some almost 3 times the price at the market for the same product. After their initial trial and error, the said the top gaskets have been affected, that the engine will be unmount and the gaskets replaced.. Another cost.
After the whole thing, the car was coupled back, the overheating has stopped but the engine now stalls especially after a brief halt, getting it in motion is dangerously slow.
My advice is this, after this experience, the best and the most cost-effective place to fix your car is at the spare parts market. If you have a trusted parts dealer there, they will take you to the best mechanic for your car and the charge is just minimal.
I spent nearly 300K fixing and tuning up my car in a techy workshop, what I would have spent at most 100k fixing at Apo or Kugbo mechanic Market.

My opinion.

Daboomb:


So, this issue has gone from being that of a high-handed Priest, to VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN, ehn?
You obviously have a hidden agenda against this Priest and by the way, l am not a Catholic.

That you confess he has women with different weave-ons in his school, goes to show that he is not actiually against women in geneneral otherwise he would have "flogged those women to death" as you allege!

The school is a religious institution and they have RULES for their students.
If you want to be an Olosho, fine, take it somewhere else.

Looking at that picture you posted, you actually look like one of the errant students that jumps school fence to have a quickie outside, and needs to be disciplined. undecided undecided grin grin

All your shakara about suing him, bringing your husband (lol), e.t.c, amounts to nothing.
Better Lawyers than you can employ, will defend him staunchly. grin grin

Infact, why mus every simply altercation or encounter, be turned to VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN?
I am sure you would have shouted "SEXUAL ASSAULT" as well, if it was just only two of you that were there, all by yourselves!
Why is that the new WMD (Weapon of Man's Destruction) in the hands of wicked and evil women like you?


The way you went about muddling all the issues and non-issues together, shows you have a wicked agenda.
Who dash you house-help at your age? how many children d you have that yo cant take care fo your house, by yourself?
Do you know that if it were to be in a place like the U.S or U.K/Europe, you will be jailed for using another humanbeing as a Servant/Househelp?

Get a life and stop seeking useless attention.
Leave the father to mind his school, anyone who thinks the discipline is too strict, should move to anoher school where they can do as they like (and turn out as you) or is it by force to be in that particulr school?

Nonsense.

You took words out of my mouth, so I'll just type just a few to buttress your points.
She's just an attention seeker.. Violence against Women
