kandiikane: ^dude, let your wife worry about eating your food since, I certainly know I won't marry a pauper like you who cannot afford food made by a chef.

LOL,

Look who is calling another person a pauper.

So you think every RICH MEN,PROFESSORS,BANKERS must get a CHEF.

Is getting a chef, now an evidence of wealth?

Keep living in your delusions.

Billyonaire: The Opposition can only make noise as usual, nothing dey happen. I advise you have an election winning strategy. The fact that you can not win an election or you are a chronic election loser seems to Nigerians that you are either, sectional, partisan or lack the foresight to rule.

GUY, you need a brain transplant ASAP.

kandiikane: ^sharrap, jare!
Cooking is the easier thing to do? Wait, so why can't you as a guy get up and go cook?

Lol@cooking is what makes you a mother

Emmatok, you see, nowadays, men are cooking and for me, a male chef is all I need jare.

You guys are the lazy ones, your mothers taught you how to cook but you sit your flat nyashes and pretend to have gender roles to play. Mtchew!

Well if you live with me, you surely die of hunger, because i will Prep my good food, breakfast, lunch and dinner with all JOY

If you like eat KFC and other junks 24/7, na your WAHALA BE THAT.

But no lazy women will ever taste my food.

kandiikane: See, all these manwashed women, believing their life is in the kitchen.

When you're getting beats from ýour husband, isokay, he can do that too because you have a toto.

Abegi, go sit down some were.

If woman wakes up in the morning and insist on not cooking, then her children will starve to death.

Let me tell you cooking is one of the most easiest thing to do at home.

If you wake-up in the morning, you don't take care of your children and hubby, why are you a WIFE/MOTHER.

LAZINESS IS A DECEASE.

When you see people running all over NL to defend GEJ, you should know something is wrong.
Coscharis has a policy of renting cars out to the government and reselling them at a lower price.
The same policy they used for CHOGM and COJA.

Under an agreement signed by the committee and Coscharis Motors, all the cars will be returned to the company after the summit.

http://nigeria24news.com/2012/07/presidency-refutes-report-that-200-cars-were-bought-for-first-ladies-summit/

Those cars are now USED and will be sold as USED after the program.

[quote author=D-Explorer]Hmmm, I'm beginning to think some dudes here are truly paid to criticize GEJ. It's time they see clearer and support a long-term progress. The OP must be under some sort of medications.[/quote]LOL, how can one be paid to criticize GEJ.

KnowAll: The bottomline is they are citizens of ecowas and there is little anyone can do so long they are not commiting any crime.

No, ecowas citizenship does not warrant poeple flooding another country. The last time I checked Nigerians are not finding it easy in Ghana.

All this people shouting at PTB, will be in jubilation mode if thesame PTB is criticizing a President from the North or SW.

Gullible Nigerians,

No President can scare Tunde Bakare, people should go and check history.
The-same SYCOPHANTS who are criticizing Tunde Bakare, were you sleeping when he was fighting ABACHA,OBJ and YARADUA.

No need getting Win 8 for now because the improvement will come with Win 9.

Can you imagine the Win8 version installed always want to go ONLINE APP STORE to play normal video.

caseless: Were was dz man when abia state sacked civil servants frm neighbouring states like abia,imo etc? We hav ibo in kano as adviser n lagos hav don dat ova d yrs,how many ppl hav their states aComodated? Sabon gari in kano they hav councilor..east cant gv u dz

gbam

They want to start another ethnic-war in Lagos, all in the name of politics.

pro01: Another dimwit. It seems you toads have a massive blackout in your brains. If you can't differentiate between the two reports, then that is YOUR problem.

For the avoidance of doubt, Patience Jonathan did NOT ask for retirement benefits based on the position of First Lady. She asked that in some way, first ladies should be allowed to pursue their own careers (as she purports to be doing by taking up the Perm Sec appointment), so that they can earn their own retirement benefits - FROM THEIR CAREERS. That is the context that was lost in the Nation's report, which was a deliberate misrepresentation to suit their adversarial purposes. The blind hatred for Patience Jonathan wouldn't allow you bats to spot this critical contextual difference.

Mr man,

Don't try to spin the story around.
this below is from the link you posted.

“We the wives of political office holders, if our name is not in the constitution and our husbands will retire with full benefits then they should find a role for us when they are amending the constitution. They should look into our own affairs,” she said.

http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/my-promotion-was-deserved-says-patience-jonathan/120464/

What has her career got to do with the Constitution.
Did the constitution disallows the President's wife from working,pursing her career or running a business- NO
She should not bring our constitution into her personal problems.

How does GLO1 cut affect SAT3,
SAT 3 belongs to Nitel, GLO 1 belongs to GLO, and we have MAIN-ONE cable.
Thay are all independent under-sea Fiber cable.

wadoski: Are these all about Lagos? You make me laugh. Would Lagos have been ‘ Lagos‘ withOUT the FG?

Were was the FG before 1960.
Maybe you forgot Lagos was the commercial center before Independent.

wadoski: The dumbest comment I ve seen in a long while. If Baba Awo made Lagos, am wondering why he couldnt replicate such feats in Ekiti, ogun, ondo, oyo etc. Perhaps u forgot Lagos was the national capital until recently, u may even wake up 2moro to tell us the Gwaris made Abuja.

Mumu,
Cocoa-house in Ibadan, Uni-Ife, Rails- stations,industrial estates all over the SW were built by AWO during the Western Region.
For your information most parts of Lagos were not developed when she was the capital.
Look at what us happenning in lekki, Epe, Aka axis.

T9ksy: Thank you for the bolded, below. We have to pay attention to the statement as it's not the first time we have been dissed by ibos like this. The same thing happened in 1951 when zik was trying to be premier in western region and when we refused him, the ibos tag us "tribalists" right till this day. Yet, we all know that they can not attempt such nonsense in kano, kaduna or any other northern cities which they claim to have developed. What i would like to know is why do ibos always go about looking for trouble from the yorubas? They would not try this with the northerners.Probably 'cause they know too well from past experience what their (northerners') response will be.And it's always ibos laying claim to another man's ancestral land. No other group in the country is claiming what is not inherently, theirs except the ibos. Why, o why?

Bros, just leave those Chest-beating Ibos alone, they have investments is the North yet they cannot talk anyhow there.

diluminati: Oshiomole dancing with Oba's Chiefs.

Benin has never been united like this.

And where is that picture of GEJ sitting alone in the Palace .
What an IRONY.

[quote author=Mr. Globe]lol, another mad cow on the loose. if the igbo community in Lagos decides to go back home, Lagos will turn to Ekiti or Osun or other SW caves. We are the life that Lagos has. We are known for industry unlike you folks that only do owanbe every second for no reason. get that[/quote]Where were the Ibos during pre-independent era or Western Region, 80% of what you see in Lagos were made by Yorubas thanks to Baba AWO.

[quote author=Mr. Globe]Tinubu does not have any prowess. Fashola won like oshiomole won. because of their legacies.If Tinubu is strong let him win ondo[/quote]What lagacies are u talking about, how did the unpopular Fashola,became governor for the first term.
You people just talk any how.

[quote author=U.Cyril]PDP shld look for a credible,wealthy and popular igbo man as deputy governor if d want to win lagos state in 2015.[/quote]So Ibos are relevant in Lagos?
But when crisis starts Ibos will claim Lagos belongs to the Yorubas.
If Ibos didn't determine the last election, why will they determine the next.

LocalChamp: Minister under fire over corps members’ posting
July 14, 2012 by Niyi Odebode, Fidelis Soriwei, Abuja and David Attah, Kaduna 12 Comments

Prominent Nigerians and groups, including the Trade Union Congress, on Thursday criticised the Minister of Youth Development, Alhaji Inuwa Abdulkadir, for insisting that National Youth Service Corps members must be posted to states under attack by Boko Haram.

The President-General of the TUC, Mr. Peter Esele, described the minister’s statement as shocking and irresponsible.

He stated, “The reason why we have NYSC is for national integration. What we have now is different from that. The challenges that the corps members are facing threaten their lives.”

Esele faulted the minister’s comparison of military personnel with the NYSC members.

He said, “As military personnel, it is their calling to be posted for security duties because they signed for it and they are prepared.

“That is not the situation with the corps members. What the corps members are doing is not what they want to do. If you ask them, none of them would agree to be posted to those places.

“I am shocked that the minister made such a statement. It is so sad and shocking. Instead of looking at the failure of the state to protect lives and property, he (the minister) is saying corps members should agree to serve anywhere they are posted to.”

Also, the National Publicity Secretary of the Congress for Progressive Change, Mr. Rotimi Fashakin, described the minister’s statement as highly insensitive.

He said the minister’s statement was disingenuous and uncharitable.

Fashakin stated, “The CPC is averse to the efforts of the Federal Government in stemming the tide of insecurity in the land.

“The usual rhetoric of ‘we are on top of the situation’ is no longer acceptable when Nigerians now sleep with palpable shambolic fear for their lives and property.

“It is insensitive to compare service men to corps members. What had been done by this government as compensation for families of the corps members that were harmed in the past?

“Can the minister give a list of his children and close relatives that would be deployed in these theatres of insurrection as corps members before asking the same of other Nigerians? If he is not capable of doing this, he should consider his statement as very disingenuous and uncharitable.”

The spokesperson for the Ijaw Republican Assembly, Ankio Briggs, said that the people in charge of affairs of the country had no clue to what was happening.

She stated, “Clearly, it shows that this minister has no clue at all. If he has, he will not be saying such a thing. As a parent, I believe that the NYSC has no value for the Nigerian youth and the country. Tell me, what is the value?

“On a personal note, my children would not go and serve in the North. They are sending other people’s children to go and die, these corps members they are sending to the North, are they soldiers? Did they sign to go and die?

“The minister has no business being a minister. In fact, I am calling for the scrapping of the NYSC. If the NYSC is not scrapped, then people should go and serve in their own zones where we know that they will be safe.

“We are talking about corps members who were trained by their parents and guardians and not by the Federal Government.”

A former Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Abubakar Tsav, warned the Federal Government against any move to endanger young graduates in the country by sending them to trouble spots.

He stated that the presence of soldiers of peacekeeping mission in Jos and other parts of the North had not prevented the recurrent killings in the North.

The former commissioner stated that even armed policemen took to their heels during the violence in Jos.

He said, “Soldiers have been on peacekeeping operations in the North, but still they kill people. These young people just left school and they want to cut short their lives. They should try and beef up security before posting them there.

“In Jos, there were policemen and they ran away, why didn’t soldiers go there to protect them? So, that minister does not know what he is talking about.”

Also, a former member of the House of Representatives and former governorship candidate of the ACN, Mr. Uche Onyeagucha, challenged the minister to lead by example by sending his children to the troubled areas and even relocating his office to either Yobe or Borno.

He challenged the minister to sign an undertaking that he would be held responsible for the death of any corps member on posting to crisis-ridden spots in the country.

He said that it was inconceivable for any corps member to be posted to the troubled states, even when security operatives and policemen on posting to the areas were lobbying to get out of there because they were scared. According to him, some of them would have bought themselves out of the North if not for a standing instruction by the IG that all transfers out of the troubled areas must be brought to his attention. He said the minister’s statement was regrettable and unfortunate as the President himself had admitted openly in a recent media chat that he could not fly to Maiduguri because of the security situation.

He urged corps members to refuse postings to such trouble spots.

“It is simple; it is not as if this thing is mandatory, if you are posted to a state you don’t like, the thing is for you to reject it, and you repeat the service, and you will be posted to another state. The most reasonable thing is to reject it if you are posted to such areas.

“As I am talking to you, there are several military officers, who are posted to Borno, Yobe, Kano and Kaduna, who are lobbying to get out of those states.

“There is hardly any police officer, who is not working hard to get out. This means that the riot policemen who are armed are scared, why then should anybody post any corps member to those areas?” Onyeagucha asked.

However, the Arewa Consultative [/b]Forum would not embark on an outright dismissal of the minister’s comment, saying he was right in some way.

The Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Anthony Sani, said that assignments such as the NYSC were[b] national sacrifices expected from Nigerians.

He said, “In a way, the minister is right because such assignments are sacrifices Nigerians are expected to make for the country.

“However, we must not lose sight of the Hausa adage which says, ‘Idan Yaro na kiwuya, baba na rowa,’ meaning if the child refuses to go on an errand, it means the father refuses to be generous to the child.”

So killing is part of national sacrifice.

studM: It will be wise for u 2 apply ur heart 2 wisdom b4 u post,k

JUST STFU

This Pastor is playing with fire,

If Boko Haram is Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO),then Nigeria (not Northern Nigeria alone)is in trouble.

Because Boko-Haram is a Terrorist Organization founded in Nigeria.

I don't know how the member(churches) of CAN and PFN allow this man Become their Leader.

So People are truly worshiping OYEDEPO?

This is Christianity in Nigeria, Pastor worship.

Akainzo: There has been a fibre cable cut on the Main One. This is affecting Glo mainly but it is also affecting other service providers like iPNX. Glo doesn't have a line through SAT-3 and thus it's services are very much degraded.

Let's hope they get it fixed soon.

Sorry,

GLO-1,SAT3 and MAIN-ONE are under SEA-FIBER CABLE.

GLO don't need SAT3 or MAIN-ONE, when they have GLO-1.

Their issue is not with PDSN and Internet gateway.

It has to do with their CORE-NETWORK, because their SMS service seems to be down.

scopusng: A member of the House of Rresentatives Ethics and Privileges Committee, Hon. Ibrahim Bello at the weekend said that Chairman Zenon Oil, Mr. Femi Otedola denied releasing the audio tape of his purported telephone conversation with Hon Farouk Lawan to media station.Bello, who disclosed this to newsmen said when the committee asked Otedola that how does the media station got the audio tape, the Oil Magante quickly denied releasing state and also claimed that he had never discuss it with anyone.

The Lawmaker said: “When we asked him about the audio clip, he told us to even summon the media house and demand how they came about the tape.

“He denied the audio clip. All he said at the meeting was that Farouk Lawan lied four times and that’s all. What I am saying is on record and we have it.

It will be recalled that the House Committee is probing the $620,000 bribe for-clearance allegation between Lawan and Otedola.

Otedola has accused Lawan, the chair of the House ad-hoc committee that probed the subsidy management fund of demanding bribe to get his company’s name off the list of those who got foreign exchange but imported no fuel.



Bello, however, said rules are meant to be followed, irrespective of status, which is responsible for the insistence of the Committee to hold its sessions behind closed-doors

He said: “Nobody can come and bend our rules. We don’t have any business with Otedola. I said it before his lawyer, who told him not to talk with us and answer our questions. He was only a witness before us and we told him categorically. We have ten lawyers in the ethics and privileges committe

“But he came with a Senior Advocate who sat beside him and told him not to answer our questions. He didn’t know that Otedola was only a witness before us and we told him categorically

“But the position of the Nigerian law as at today is that he who gives graft and he who receives are both culprits. You are not a member of the parliament and you were alleged to have given one of us something which is illicit, then, you are the best person to come before the Committee and tell us the true position of what transpired before you and him”.

Bello said the importance of the case would not give room for laxity as the integrity of the House as an institution is at stake.

“This particular issue is a unique case. As a committee, our business is the conduct of affairs of our members. But this matter is unique because it involves somebody who gave and somebody who took. The allegation is that somebody who is not a parliamentarian gave to a parliamentarian.

“And we in the parliament want to ascertain the veracity of the claim. Are we going to import a demon to come and find out what transpired between Otedola and Lawan?”

“It’s a matter whereby the onus is on Otedola to come before us and give us justification testifying to the fact that truly he gave Lawan graft because he is an accused person too by virtue of our laws. So, can you see the fallacy in this country? We don’t know who is protecting the accused person here.

“He (Lawan) came and we interrogated him for almost four hours after giving his testimony he left, with the arrangement that whenever we need his presence he will come back. Now he (Otedola)is insisting that we should go into a public hearing”.
