This is the hour of evil. Evil is allowed a temporar time and it can only get worse for now till the great victory.

What a sad news! She was a great singer. Icon. Legend. , Death is no respecter of anyone. Few years ago it was Michael, now Whitney. The life of a man is nothing but a vapour. We are here on earth as pilgrims. Fame, wealth, materialism, etc do not count in the eyes of God, only our spiritual life in accordance to his commandments. Man is only here on earth to be tested, nothing more. .RIP Whitney.

@Thoniaslim, why did u pick out 'surrender'from my entire post? Well, I think that girl she calls her girl friend knows what she's doing. She's a Maradona.

@poster, tell us one reason you think the girl u called ur 'girlfriend' loves you?? Your girlfriend doesn't love you, you are only assuming her to. She's probably sitting on the fence for now. She hasn't 'surrendered to you'. Probably she doesn't know how to tell you she doesn't love you, and she doesn't want to hurt you either because she's noticed you are hypnotised by her love. So she decided to help you by handing over her friend who probably had told her she likes you. , My friend think and ask yourself if your girlfriend actually loves you.

Was it not Howarf Web that gave Chelsea the title two seasons ago. Drogba was at least 5 yard offside when the ball was passed yet the linesman did not wave and Drogba scored. Then Ferguson brought in Nani and co he had reserved for champions league match against Bayern Munich. The temple of the match changed and Man U pulled one back immediately to make it 2-1. Again Macheida scored a late goal but Webb ruled it out claiming Macheida controlled with his hand. Several replays showed Macheida never touched the ball with his hand. Chelsea won 2-1 in a game they should have lost, and they won the league with only one point over Man U. That match was played in late part of the season and it was a decisive period.

Any prize?

I sincerely believe that there are more men than women. Except markets, every where else I see more men than women. Even the cesus statistics has always stated so (more men in Nigeria). However, there are far more women ready to marry than men. A girl of 19 could be ready, whereas a boy has to ensure he stabilizes financially first.

'Do not fear those who can kill the body but cannot kill the soul, rather fear Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.' Jesus Christ in the gospel.

A bad season for Man U wit lots of injuries.

Why are Nigerians so freaked with these things? What is Mozat again? Are we not satisfied with the social networking applications we have already? They said it 'chops' money, yet people are rushing there. Yeye!

I beg people should stop insulting our President. Let's pray for him instead for God to grant him wisdom in this time of tumoil.

I beg they are opportunists. Period!

Issues raised by Central Bank of Nigeria Governor Sanusi Lamido Sanusi:

One of the main points raised by the CBN governor is that the FG is paying subsidies for petrol that was never imported. Based on his report, it can be gathered that a large percentage of the imported product is fraudulent(it was only imported on paper).

What this means is that the government would pay less if it was only paying for the actual imported fuel. Therefore saving itself a sizeable sum of money.

MY SOLUTIONS ARE:
1. Sanitize the inspection process, put in place a committee that includes civil societies, NLC, and people of repute to monitor and verify the actual quantity of imported petrol. (Provide the necessary tools and equipment for this purpose)

2. Put in place software that audits all activities e.g. SAP. (If necessary make the audits public)

3. Use reputable Pre-shipment inspection agencies.

4. Prosecute and punish offenders


If we are not capable of implenting this processes, let us ask for help. , Gbam! You are more qualified than the confused people up there. I give it to you. Sanusi is taking the lazy man's route.

Nigeria on the edge.

That will be great!

I read from A-Z, what a commedy. Don't you people have phones? Natasha are you still there? Were you really serious? Cocoasomething and Kensomething, are you together now? Are we to expect wedding IV?

What is happening here? Who is Goidieluk and who is Chi-baby. Are they so beautiful to be asking for handsome guys?

Who is saying there is no protest in Benin? The Benin protest is real and very serious. Ring road is blocked.

People should stop comparing us with other countries. Nigeria has nothing on ground to justify this fuel subsidy removal; no electricty- people buy fuel to run generator for their businesses. Now prices will go up because of cost of high operations cost. Salaries are poor. Roads are bad. No jobs- a lot of dependants and extended dependants, when you work, you earn salary not only for your self and immediate family but for a much more extension of people. No pipe borne water. Even food and meat will be more expensive now that cost of transportating them by traders have gone up. Many countries have food and meat far more than Nigeria. It's cheaper buying used cars from neigboring countries. Nothing is cheap for the common man, things are cheaper in neigboring countries.

Fellow Nairalander,

Permit me to say the following already "supposedly" known facts:
1. Madam Iweahala is simply doing the bidding on her international collaborator - IMF/World bank, so don't expect anything different from her.
2. Ngozi is just helping the western / 1st world export inflation from the west to Nigeria. The west /1st world nations are known for leveraging on the chaotic conditions in the 3rd world nations. In other words, they use their instruments like IMF/World bank to unleash hardship on the 3rd world nations by using their agents like Madam Iweahala to implent their policies.
3. Take a look at all the "countries of interest" to the western world such as DRC, Angola, Nigeria, e.t.c; all are battling with one problem or the other.
4. No one can become a leader in any of these "countries of interest" without the strong support of either America, Britain or France. And when you ride on their support to get to power, they will use their agents within your country to make your government unpopular and get rid of you if you are lucky to escape death. This is the reason GEJ dances to their tune like mugu. He does not have the political will-power to challenge them or any of their institution. Any attempt to challenge them will cost him his job and if lucky, he will be alive.
5. As for Nigeria, they have a project to divide the nation and quarantine the South-south region which is their major interest. Their target is on or before 2015. To achieve this, they are using naija northern political elites who have hijacked the original course of Boko Haram to create state of anarchy in the Northern naija.
6. The greatest collaborator of CORRUPTION in naija are the western/1st world. They collabo with their agents in naija to perpetrate these wickedness at our own expense for their gains and that of their cronies. THAT'S WHY IT IS SO DIFFICULT TO EASILY FIGHT CORRUPTION IN NAIJA. The memories of the Halliburton and Siemens scandals still linger.
7. The most painful thing is that THE SO CALLED LABOUR, HUMAN-RIGHT GROUPS, CIVIL SOCIETY AND RELIGIOUS LEADERS, all know these facts but everyone turn blind eyes simply because they all benefit from these Western/1st world in one way or the other.
8. If GEJ needs the purported 1.3tr naira used on fuel subsidy, he should go to naija waters and fight corrupt practices going on there.

In the light of all these, Naija should watch and pray. May the ALMIGHTY GOD deliver naija from all the demons who have held her in bondage. What a great post. Spot on and d greatest yet this year. Now somebody shares my mind.

We are not interested in anonymous trying to incite us. We should only identify with faces whose agendas are clear. Beware of faceless entities.

I meant end of season.

Man U will always be Man U. No team can be like Man U. It is just a phase and Ferguson is watching out for the weak areas for reinfocement at the end of the year.

Playing Carick, Giggs and Park together against a fast side as Newcastle was a mistake. But Ferguson has not options as many players are injured. Cleverly and Young will make a diffference when they return. Evans should be able to push Ferdinard to the bench, and Smalling return will free Valencia to attack while also stabilizing the defence. Finally, the odds are against Man U to win anything this season, hence the need to buy solid players. However, Man U has a way of bouncing back and remaining there at the top. This is a season in which two big teams will drop out of the top four and mis champions league next season. So Ferguson be warned!

Somebody very closed to me received a call from Ilorin about the killing even before I saw the story on nairaland. I think it is true.

Too much criticism. You people should take it easy. I think he is listening and has started making amends. Was he not he that placed some region under emergency? Did u guys hear of any bombings on new year day? Pls it is not easy, God will guide him and God bless Nigeria.

Uprisings.

Reference, that was good. To lead Nigeria, you have to be diplomatic just to be acceptable to all. Sometimes when you use force, everything will collapse on you. OBJ attempted to use force to cut down the Niger-Delta milatants but he couldn't instead the whole thing escalated. It took the diplomacy of the 'fragile' Yaradua to calm the situation. People should know it is not easy to fight terrorism, more so where the people you atre fighting are phatom warriors. Who can tell the location of the Boko Haram, who can tell who they are,etc. It is difficult fighting someone who has already chosen death but only waiting to take innocent people with him, it is lots more difficult where it is possible that that person is your midst and unknown. That's why Okogie has chosen to speak about the issues that can immediately be tackled. That is, what will d money from d subsidy be used for when removed, the focus of the govt should be to achieve specific projets- electricity, good roads etc, and not elaborate target that can never be met as it has been for decades. Okogie also stated that the sposors of these group when identified, should be brought to book. This in my opinion is an intelligent approach. Those of you calling for revolution, hope you know Nigeria is not Libya, not Liberia or S/leon or Cote d Voire. If it should happen here, some families will be completely wiped out, infact some communities. It will be a calamity. Please you guys should put Nigeria problem into prayer. The pen is mightier than the sword, so continue to write and air your view/opinion/suggestion/ but don't carry sword. It will be well. Amen.

Daffydoc, pls summarise for us. You can bullet the vital point so that we can see at a glance the evil plot to destabilize our dear country. There seem to be a coordinated global movement to distabilize governments of big countries via debts, riots, violence and wars.

Wole Soyinka is seeking further recongnition from the west- the EU and America. He does not want to lose his relevance.

May be when the foreign aid is withdrawn from Nigeria, they will give it to Soyinka. Fame can make someone 'crazy' too because you meet lots of people who have long forgotten about God and are in union with the Satan. Before you know it you start buying into those ideaology from the pit of hell. The truth is the western world has become pagan again and need reevangelisation. No wonder their economy is crumbling because they have distant themselves from God. Even under strict austerity measure, it is forecast that it will take America about 70yrs to come of its debt. The bad news is that America debt is growing by the year and the budget deficit now a sorry!. The problem is that the world is attempting to build a civilization without God. It won't work. God created this world, he guided it through history. He gave his commandments; the world has a choice, but with consequencies. Nigeria, by this bill, has identified with God and now a light to a darkened world.

Too much book.

Queensmith, you must be talking from experience.
