It has nothing to do with living in saner climes . . . but more to do with wanting us all, even those who live in the savage lands, to try to adopt the sensible over the insensible savage acts that continue to keep them right where they continue to be. Change only comes when we start to DO THE RIGHT THING, not make excuses for why the Status Quo should be allowed to continue and then wonder why rather than get better, things seem to be getting worse.

Yes, it sucks that our police is the way it is today, but doing the right thing ALL OF THE TIME is what we are told to do, especially in the Church. And is what will eventually get us to the promised land where we really want things to go in this country.  And that ought to be the way we worshipers do things too.

What separates this act from acts on the typical streets where Criminals/armed robbers/murderers caught red handed are burnt alive? I have seen a mob descend on a suspected armed robber, and essentially burned the man alive. What is the difference between that and what happened here with these Church people? I see none, and for me, that goes against what the church really teaches.

The term, parasite is certainly limited to individuals like dayokanu, ekt_bear etc and other ethnic bigots who cannot see beyond the shiit in their gory arses. It isn't an SW thing.

Princek12:
Exactly my point. You do not wait for someone to commend you about the posting before you reply that you copied it. You are supposed to cite the source at the moment you posted someone else's work. Even though you admitted to copying the jokes from somebody else, you failed to provide the source from which you copied it.

And you do not have to directly attribute someone else's work as yours to commit plagiarism. You commit plagiarism when you fail to give credit to work that was not yours.

Since you are most likely a product of Nigeria's failed educational system, you believe it is proper to copy jokes from someone else's website, post it on Nairaland,  and fail to give attribution to the source as long as you don't state that it was your own work. That thinking is flawed, my brother, and in civilized societies you could be expelled from school and be guilty of the act plagiarism or, even more serious, copyright infringement.

Just take this as a learning experience and move on. This is because next time you post something, no one will know whether it was copied from another source or whether it was your own work product. There is a presumption that a literary work without citation is the work product of the person who wrote or posted it.

My elder sister, our 2nd born was in exactly d same situation you are in now. She got married in year 2000. Husband was comfortable or so we thought. He married her straight out of university, infact she was heavily pregnant during nysc orientation.

The first thing he did, wen she gave birth was telling her not to work. And 2ndly not to ever take okada. They had jst one car, so wen he left for work, she was stuck at home. My mom fought tooth and nail dt decision, cos she was imagining a 2/1 graduate of a marketable course sitting down at home as a house wife. My sister's attitude then seemed to be like my mom wanted to scatter her marriage. The last ditch effort my mom did was getting my sis a Zenith bank job back in 2001, my sister refused to take that job and her husband insulted my mom for trying to break his home. So we all left them. She joyfully became a housewife and had all the time in d world for her daughter, they had all d coloring books and they colored together.

Like a few years later, my bro-in-law decided to quit his job in govt. The presidency to be precise. All of a sudden, private jobs looked attractive and he had someone's assurance he'd get a big telecoms job, so he resigned.
Things didn't work out as planned, so he became jobless. And as expexted, d 3 bedroom flat they were occupying given by govt was allocated to someone else. Right in our eyes, things took a turn for the worse, they were homeless, my sister was jobless and husband jobless.
Her husband's junior brother was at dis time relocating to UK wit his Family, so they got temporary accomodation. My bro in law, started doing some side gigs, money would come this month and nothing for the next 3 months. By now she had 2. See, I'm not hiding anything in dis story, I'm laying it out for you, so dt u won't open ur eyes and enter trouble.

Then, my sister decided she wanted to work. After years with no work, no further education, it was hard and the labour market was saturated plus you have to factor in her age. Yes, the jobs will be there, but will age be on ur side? Wen far younger pple have d same qualifications and more competing with u for d same jobs with experience to booth?
Suffice it to say, d jobs were not there as she thought. So she settled for a teaching job in a private school. Guess what, it didn't last. She was frustrated becos, a small girl with a degree in education will be employed and placed on a higher salary. Let's face it, she didn't study a course close to Education. She kept bumping around frm school to school and she kept leaving. At dis time, the owner of the house came bak and they were homeless again!

The both families raised up funds and rented a place for them. Then child number 3 came. Of course d depression caught up with her, cos all her younger ones and former classmates seemed to be doing well. It was termed a spiritual attack, so we were moving from prayer house to prayer house.

To cut a long story long, the mouth her husband used to insult my mother, is still d same mouth he's using to say thank u now. Cos, she's the one solely holding that family up. My sis calls all of us, everyone sends her money. They've managed to secure a place of their own, but they're living in it and building it at d same time. So technically, its an uncompleted building.

This has affected my sister so much, infact, as I type dis, I'm holding back tears. She called me aside once, and told me not to rush into marriage and that I should ensure I get to d peak of my career as a lawyer. Her biggest regret is not grabbing d Zenith job wen it came up. Her husband cud hv taken d gamble wit his job wit little or no consequences if she was working. The only thing keeping that family is that my sister is tenaciously holding unto God. Her husband is still working for himself, and d money isn't forthcoming and his family cannot be bothered. He was in my office the other day, and d sight I saw made me want to start crying. My mom is always weeping, when she sees d kids and is always packing foodstuff to their home. The fight has gone out of the husband, and I knw he won't say it out but if only he had seen all these back then, I'm sure nobody will tell him to allow his wife work.
My only consolation is that God that began that good work in them, will be faithful to complete it.

Use ur tongue to count your teeth. Things may look rosy now, but hindsight is always right.

We claimed the insurance, that was the reason, reconstruction started few days later and store restocked before you can blink. So you can burn it as many times as you like. Vandalism in some people is money spinning for others.

ekwy nwa:
i wonder why some fools still run around like headless chicken to claim Lagos

you will sit behind ur  comptuer in ur[b]'' face me i slap you'[/b]' claming another man's mansion
you be thief

where were you when people were making CASH building and buying up Lagos

plesae quit all these cheap cracks you  smoke and face reality ,  Lagos is gone for good.
all the lands ve being bought and i know that you cannot afford even the outskirts
so is either you remain and float as a tenant in lagos slums or you crawl back to your village
after all lagos no be your papa village
Shekina

queensmith:
erm your supposed to get a lawyer!!

you better get that lawyer immediately and make sure EVERYTHING is in the name of yourself and your kids!!

your husband should even remove his name entirely so the brothers don't try and use that to seize his properties.

The local property his family may have access to you need to SELL asap and get other assets nearer to the city.

make sure you have a joint savings account so only yourself or the noted next of kin (your children) can gain access to the money.

be very careful when you invest to make sure his family don't end up inheriting your toils.

Good luck!

show some respect, she is prof not Dr.!

if you knew anything about her you wont type that silly statement, typical ignorant yoruba man

Liar, where and what is this new document. SURE-P reloaded

After several pages, Mr clever gets it at last!
A new brochure is being printed for N97 and the N141 one is being withdrawn. Its not so difficult to understand, is it? No?

--Beaf scratches head--

SURE programme is dead because the brochure is being reprinted?[/size]
Wonders! Make small goat run e! Una go take laf kill pipo animal for dis NL o!

Demdem:
honestly its even disheartening that the president may be governing us (over 160Million Nigerians) without having a plan B.


The President said, “As I came in, I saw this SURE book being distributed, we are withdrawing it. This is the old one. We developed this with the expectation that we were going to completely deregulate the downstream sector of the oil industry, (after) the 100 per cent removal of subsidy.

Beaf:
Sir, you are a dunce sha!
Did you ever bother to the document that was in circulation? Lol!

Like I said English is your problem, but maybe we should also add your habit of getting the news from Iya Basira's akara spot.
If you had downloaded the document in question, you would have realised that we are talking about a mere brochure.

Jump up and slap yourself! TWAI!!
Its must be great to be an illiterate, that way you have no reason to know important things when arguing. You can just sort of reach into your pocket and bring out any shiit.
[size=16pt]Sir, how will producing a new brochure stop the sure programme from running?[/size]
Acting stup!d can't be easy.

What an entertaining day!

HNosegbe:
My only issue is that Mr President should have realised this right from when the subsidy was partially reinstated. The SURE program should have been scaled down BEFORE inaugurating the committee. Knowing the perception of the average Nigerian as to his apparent lack of direction, he should have put the horse before the cart.

I don't envy Mr President. He has his work cut out.

Demdem:
You this LIAR/COWARD that ran away after accusing me wrongly and never came back to defend ursef. do u think u are worth a good response from me. sincere my foot, like master like servant. IIdiot.

we dont need any ffucking new plan or promises again. the ones he has lauched so far how far has it led us. Ffuck any new plan. he should implement what he promised before the elections. he now has money at his disposal than before so that should be easier. tell the retardeen that.

Beaf:
He inaugurated the SURE programme because it is still running, but you are toooooooooooooo daft to see that. LOLZZ!
English is your problem.
What the President has said is that the old document should be recalled because it can not be met at 97 per litre; SURE has been scaled back cos the projected sum cannot be realised when subsidies are still running. Thats honesty, bruv.

Please test you IQ with this; 2 +2 = ___ ?

Guy, what language did they speak in your school? It couldn't have been English.

Lol! What an entertaining morning! Better than a visit to the zoo!

Beaf:
Poor things. Simple math eludes them.
Next time you guys will think twice before accepting money from oil marketers to demonstrate against the future of your own kids.

The subsidy windfall has been slashed because you still have subsidies. But then, the average person loves awuf; thats why nobody is bothered to ask their useless governor why their state is not generating money and they have to rely on the FG like lepers who cannot do a days work or have the brains to imagine anything outside of free oil beggars money.

Awuf!!! Awuf!!! Awuf!!!

Anonymous said the attack has been planned as a protest against "our irresponsible leaders and the beloved bankers who are starving the world for their own selfish needs out of sheer sadistic fun."

The DNS translates a Web site name, such as www.idg.com, into a numerical IP (Internet Protocol) address, which is used by computers to find the Web site.

The 13 authoritative root servers contain the master list of where other nameservers can look up an IP address for a domain name within a certain top-level domain such as ".com."

The group said it had built a "Reflective DNS Amplification DDOS" (distributed denial-of-service) tool, which causes other DNS servers to overwhelm those root servers with lots of traffic, according to the Pastebin post.

THOSE SOUND LIKE STRONG LECHEROUS AND OVERPOWERING DESIRES TO ME. that sounds like someone who has lost total control of their being. you do know people can self-service without these l[b]echerous and intense desires[/b] for another person right ?

Now, this is one of my favourite covers of Allure magazine since a long while. Omoni Oboli did justice to the cover in that gold dress with a flowered detailing. Simply gorgeous.

In my own understanding both are good for the couple.

1. Traditional Wedding Protects the Man interest, even though the man do spend alot of money doing it. In Traditional Wedding the woman did not have any say or belonging in the property of the man.

2. White Wedding Protects the Woman interest, The woman has more right in this type of of marriage.
