What pains we most about this government is the amount of lies that would be documented as Nigerian history. Imagine my son reading this article twenty years from now and thinking the economy was so good for the government to tell its citizens in diaspora to come home. It would be my word against the history books, whom do you think he would believe?

All talk, no action, 50 years from now, we would still be discussing this issue. Go check the newspaper headline of NEPA promising no more black outs in 1984, its even worse now. I remember some of these blackouts used to be announced on NTA before they occur.

Why put the babies in the sun?

four seasons by Sheraton, lekki.

Reminds me of Archie and Jughead cartoon magazines. In one of its series, Archie was given a car that drives to places he looks at, he declined saying what if he looks at the pretty girls on the street, the car would drive itself over them. Guess we are heading towards all those things we see in science fiction.

The next thing now davido go take am shopping

all the schools know about this, before u open a school u have to go to ministry of education first for approval, not opening the sch and waiting for them to visit u sch b4 u can get approval.

The government has allowed this for so many years, so no school bothers to keep the rule. Now they want to do the right thing, they should allow those schools that are ready for progress to be registered and shut down others.

why not tell them what to do to get approved, and when they don't meet up within the time frame ,you can shut them down. Most public schools approved by the same government should also be shut down because the only good thing about them is their playground. Standards, teachers, extra curricular activities, etc are zero in most public schools.

Twitter fire. When I grow up, I want to be a twitterer.

Assuming, she had succeeded to kill herself, would she be charged? Did she attempt suicide because she was very happy? Or trying to hurt someone?

I have a personal friend who attempted suicide in 2011. She was retained in the psychiatric unit of a teaching hospital till all evaluation and psychological treatment done. She was placed on surveillance for next 6 months with weekly counseling before she was allowed to go back to work.

The scenario I narrated and the one we have at hand, which helps the person more?

I read somewhere about the deceased properties being seized, family making payments, ostracizing some members of the family, etc for successful suicides, all these were outside Nigeria cases.

Given that your friend was treated differently and I think such treatment would give better results, then its up to us (and not our politicians like everyone says) to change it. Till then, it's illegal.

curiousmind11:
What??

So, someone depressed to the point of attempting to take his/her life, instead of getting psychiatric evaluation and attention gets prison terms? What a country?

I give up!

committing suicide or even helping someone commit suicide is illegal in some countries, not only Nigeria. Some countries have legalized it after years of making it illegal. So many things are not unique to Nigeria only as we always want to believe.

attempting suicide is illegal, period.

suicide is illegal, period.

maybe he meant 30 billion kobo, which equals 300 million naira

My office also has a whistle blowing policy. If only it can be extended to NEPA, so anyone who bypasses his metre would pay a fine and the blower would get ten percent of that fine.

Let the prophecies begin from all church headquarters.

Hello house. I got married 29th August 2009. I and my wife had delay in child birth. Finally in the year 2012, September 14th to be precise God gave us a wonderful boy. I won't disclose his name for personal reasons.

Ever since he started school, he has been breaking every academic records. He is presently 4 years old and in Nursery 2. I Collected his result last week and as expected he came top again. I am so proud of him.

God gave him to me to wipe the tears of delay.

Pls if you have a child or sibling who is excelling academic all pls share his/her story.

Congrats on your child's progress, it gives every parent joy to see their child(ren) excel. Hope you would have greater testimonies of him as he grows older. #letthelittlethingscount

Lalasticlala come and ban this guy for booking space.

You forget some get married in their third year in school when they upgrade to married men and sugar daddies because they become exposed to more people. I know two people this happened to, the sad part is the most homely and nicest girl I ever met is still unmarried in her 40s now.

If davido wants to get married, he will definitely not marry the kind of girl people would love, he would probably marry a Tboss type(hated for no particular reason) because these are the kind of women always around him.

Karma doesn't always play the music you wish to dance to. Life just happens. And for the record, not every lady wishes to get married, we all are wired differently. Some prefer being the side chick or baby mama to being the wife.

Did you buy the pack of noodles this morning? If not, then that bug or insect is a non paying tenant in your building.

IBU oooo ,abeg who be the goat and who be the yam, I don die ooooo

I have personally declared Thursdays to Sundays as Nigerian attire days, now you want to add Mondays and Wednesdays, ko le work.

And I just said this morning in another thread that if efe loses, Nigerians would donate N50m

The way this thing is going, if efe doesnt win, Nigerians would contribute N50m for him

BB should have allowed this voting for two to three weeks without evicting any of the last five through out that period and show the results every week till the grand finale. They would probably have raked in N1trn by then. I am actually still struggling to keep myself from voting for a show I never watch, just because of social media pressure.

so all those your beautiful hairstyles are wigs, OK thanks for the info.
