I have always known i was. 1-10 is just me.
I never call except i have to. I just dont have the energy for keeping many friends but my few friends love me much.
The total number of talk time minutes on my cellphone is incredibly low.
Its not really good though as one can run into difficult problems with no much people to contact.

TheBookWorm: Money is not everything. Education is key. Why would I want my children to become a footballer, when they can eventually own a team?

How sure are you that they will ever make a hundred million dollars.

adaobi123: They can do both at the same time. My younger brothers do.

Thats in the UK. its not feasible in Nigeria.

I wish i did few years ago. seriously!
Imagine money now being a hindrance to the education now. smh!

liar fake mod! lol

•Petroleum minister accused of spending N2bn on private jets in two years.

punch: This is weighty; EFCC should clear the air If the report that a Minister of the
Federal Republic spent a staggering
N2billion on private jet rentals in two
years is true, then, it merely confirms
the pervasive profligacy in
government. According to the Crusader For Good Governance, a
non-governmental organisation that
blew the whistle, the petroleum
minister, Mrs Diezani Alison-Madueke,
spent the amount on her numerous
overseas trips in the last two years. The NGO, in a petition sent to the
Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC), alleged, among
others, that the minister rejected a
commercial flight when President
Goodluck Jonathan visited China a few months ago and instead paid $
300,000 to go to the Asian country. According to the petitioners, “her
frequent trips to meetings of the
Organisation of Oil Producing and
Exporting Countries, OPEC, in Vienna,
Austria, have been through private
jets.” “The same happened during Mr. President’s trip to South Africa; she
also travelled in a private jet at the cost
of $300,000.00.” She was accused of
spending the same amount on her trip
to South Africa when the president
also went there. In the petition, the minister was said to have travelled in a
private jet to Dubai during the last
Easter Break with members of her
family at the cost of $300,000.00, even
as the Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation (NNPC) was alleged to be maintaining a private jet, Challenger
850 Visa Jet at $500,000.00 monthly
for the minister. Perhaps the most ridiculous of the
allegations, according to the
petitioner, is that “Worse of all, even
when Mr. President is travelling and
the use of Presidential jet is
guaranteed, the Minister of Petroleum never makes use of such cost-saving
measures”. We find all these incredible against the
usual impression given by the
government that the country cannot
afford certain essentials due to paucity
of funds. For instance, the Academic
Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has been on strike for almost two months,
thereby grounding academic and
other activities on our university
campuses. We are concerned like most other
Nigerians, especially if this kind of
frivolous spending could be going on
in government. Before the ASUU strike,
lecturers in the polytechnics were also
on strike for months. There are so many other things begging for
attention in the country that the
government has not done, always
pleading poverty. Schools are in a
shambles; healthcare has deteriorated
as many Nigerians, especially those with the means travel out for medical
check-up, the transportation sector is
in chaos for the same reason. The state
of infrastructure generally is nothing
to write home about. Yet, we see
financial recklessness in governments while the vast majority of Nigerians
live in abject poverty. From the petition signed by
Okechukwu Obiora, the petitioners
appeared to have done some
spadework on the matter as they
claimed that the relevant agencies in
the aviation sector, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), Nigerian
Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) and
Nigerian Airspace Management
Agency (NAMA) all confirmed that the
minister has never flown commercial
aircraft in the last two years. All the agencies are government owned; it
therefore should not be difficult for the
commission to get the necessary
information from them. Without doubt, these are weighty
allegations; nonetheless, we want to
see them merely as that – allegations –
until proven otherwise. But then, this
is a matter that Nigerians are
interested in, and justifiably so. The EFCC therefore owes Nigerians an
obligation to say whether it had
received the petition or not. If it had, it
should so tell the people and as well
let them into what it is doing about it.
This is not the kind of issue that should be allowed to gather dust in
shelves or be swept under the carpet

Will the $20000 be given out after this first round of submitting lyrics? OR will it go down to stage performances and all?

I'm not interested in being a rapper! all i want is money for my seriously ailing schooling.

ba7man: When you realize it costs approximately $600,000 a year to maintain a Bugatti Veyron if you wish to use it
well.....and not just park it in a garage, the Lambo starts to make more economic sense.

broke people dont buy super cars!

Jenams: my friend, can u pls shut up? Ur level of reasonin is abysmally poor.

I conclude that you reason with your feet!
You are just one of those who take advantage of women.

Well i'm a guy and i know guys take advantage of insecure women!

I dont think its a big deal if they dont leave anything to their kids. The kids attend(ed) the best schools in the world, and they have access to excess funds to pursue their dreams.

I DONT believe them 100% though. Bill gates bought a mansion worth several million dollars for his 15 yr old daughter. Will this same man also leave his children with nothing? smh!!

@Bosstdiamond
That dream could mean *spiritual wife* or *upgrade in fortunes if you are not presently in a good financial condition*...
One of the ways to decipher which applies this is through evaluating your recent dreams and present fortune..

tell wizkid this pls..

sweet potato was just on the market he then overshadowed it with jaiye jaiye..and no video for his songs too..
do these guys have advisers at all?
exactly the way 9ice destroyed himself with too many albums. thats the way these young singers are going!

Have you guys heard of Psquare, 2face & dbanj? How many singles has psquare dropped this year?
When dbanj was on fire, you could count all his songs..

I dont even bother listening to their crap singles anymore..
Imagine wasting that chance to sing with wale with a crap joint. When he coulda saved a better song e.g "the matter"for the main moment.

I think Holiness, faith, and knowledge ot the Word are the key things.
I'm shocked people say Kenneth Hagin is a false teacher! My life has never been the same since i read his books about application of THE WORD through FAITH..
Once you are obedient to God's word, and possess the holy spirit who will help you intercede in prayer, you wont find it difficult receiving from God anymore.
Faith is key though, because you cant please God without faith (hebrews 11:6). Nd faith comes by hearing the word of God (romans 10:17) and applying it.
Someone just said its only God who knows what we want and we need not ask God. But i would like to point out that in mark 11:24 Jesus instructed us to Ask from God whatever by faith and it will be given.
Just take God for his words in other words! tell him to fufill his word in your life.
****
Frosbel can keep defaming a pastor (Kenneth hagin) who stuck rigidly to the Word, but as for me, That man's writeups helped save me from sliding out of xtainity. I'll still talk about this when i'm less busy with my life...

when i saw D1 on this list, i stopped taking your post serious..

Fadenitan: Am a member of mfm,my people perish because they lack basic knowledge.For it is written in matthew 11 vs 12, And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence,and the violent take it by force. Kill all your enemies by fire and thunder before they kill you ,because if you allow them to kill you,they can seek for forgiveness and they can be saved after you must have gone. Let the God of Elijay that answerith by fire open your inner eye to behold an

Where is the message of love Jesus preached. If this is your view point, you must be a very bitter person.
Do you know the fruits of the spirit? love is one of them..
The problem with many christians is not enemies but lack of faith.
Because if you have faith, you will be able to take God at his word..And his word is love..
Starting a thread on this later today, God willing..

free2ryhme: Make you dey find skeleton for people cupboard when na graveyard you dey live

I wonder why people take fun at pointing out typos..

Seun: I couldn't find any proof of the existence of God, so after an existential crisis I finally decided to stop assuming that God exists.

So you dont believe spiritual phenomenons exist?
And i'm just curious..dad you become an atheist after you got fairly rich?

What you guys should be doing now is trying to give her ideas...not criticizing her!

Caracta: OP, lemme tell you a little about me.
My dad stopped paying my school fees in my second year at the Uni...not even because there was no money.

Out of pride (or ego), i couldn't ask anybody for help. Even up till now, i hate to borrow or become a slave for anything monetary or non-monetary. Running to other family members was not an option. I looked at myself...I looked at my strength. I can write!

So i started writing for magazines, newspapers, handbooks, etc. I could teach,...

There are some skills that are not as easily marketable as quick as that..
And how about someone who has some skill that cant fetch him money so fast e.g poetry writing.. what should he/her do?
Not everyone is as bright as you were due to many reasons, e.g as a result of poor early education..
And you forget, her school fees may be astronomically expensive!..

OP are you sure you know what you are saying?
I think there's a point you have to reach financially before you can think of that!

follow me thru my signature..

booqee: i don't even open my eyes in my own case

booqee, There's one thing that has not been mentioned in this post..
I beleive there are two types of sleep paralysis. The spiritual one and the physical one..
When you experience sleep paralysis after a scary dream, its definitely spiritual. It also comes with a strange kinda shock too..
If this is the case, it has only one cure. Embrace God. Increase ur depth in the word of God, so you will be able to address this demons authoritatively..
***
So boqee tell me do you have some sort of nightmares b4 this paralysis?
***
And dont let anyone deceive you that spiritual phenomenons dont exist. I'm as deep a critical thinker as any atheist out there. B4 i talk about anything, i know what i'm saying..

ogugua88: Better than his usual efforts.

you.. dbanj will never impress you

Not just the religion section alone needs competent mods..just take a look at the phone section, you see people spewing insultive words and curses.. Seun look into that..
