I dont pity him. Obasanjo did a lot of rubbish during his last days. Ribadu's promotion to AIG, was just one of those nonsense Obj did then.

The Muslims are still behaving like kids. Common sense eludes them for life! why would they do things like this when they know they surely dont have monopoly to violence. The killing should be avanged at all COSTS.

In fact, the police guys in charge should be attacked too. I mean, there are also thousands of Muslims in Igboland. so there's no hiding place.

A married woman has no moral rights to say no to her hus. If she's not ready, she can just allow d man to ease himself by not participating, or plead with him to give her some time off. Not to say no.

If she says 'no', wot does she expect the guy to do?
Crime › Re: Dead Corps Member Found In Oba’s Shrine by emmydee(m): 11:16am On Aug 05, 2008
@lucabaris

If the body of a missing corps member was found in an oba's palace, then the oba should be killed, nothing more, nothing less.

Do u even realize the implications? Corp members are posted to very very interior places in very foreign lands where they discharge their duties believing they are serving the nation and now he's killed in the knowledge of a village chief who is supposed to be one of his best protectors and you are saying investigations are on going? wow. Kill the dude, jail the rest for life!

@ Nigeria1:

My bros, you're saying d truth. I know too much abut maps. I got a B.Sc. in geography, UNN, about ten yrs ago. So I know all about that stuff. But what am saying is that, the Nigerian situation does not follow straight lines. Nothing in here follows international rules. So Bonga oil field does not belong to Ondo anything. Bakassi may belong to Cameroun but even at that, Nigeria is not supposed to relinquish it without a gun shot! So my bros, I give u kudos for your details but they dont apply in our environment. Thank you.

Lets talk maturely here. It's not about secession, the north has been very idle, with lots of greed on the nations income. They have been in power even when obj was there, north still had a strong hand and they have neglected the development of the ND for far too long. Developing agriculture would be excellent but the ND crises has just come to stay. Am not sure it will EVER end!. Now it's not about the north alone, unfortunately, everyone is involved in the nations problem including the ND crises even my people Ndi Igbo, Yoruba, South South, Middle belt. They run this nation as if it belongs to no body. Free for all. Shit!

[b]LASTMA i[/b]s once again put to test.
The best option is to direct all vehicles coming from the island from 5 AM to use other bridges like carter & eko. And direct also all vehicles going to the island from 3PM to use those other bridges. I think this would work if LASTMA works in full swing.

Phones › Huawei Phones Get Hot by emmydee(op): 5:42pm On Jul 07, 2008
I have confirmed that most Hauwei CDMA Mobile phones get real hot. Most of my friends who I encouraged to buy Visa phones have complained that theirs get real hot most of the time. I advised them to stop using the phones for fear of radiation emission. Does anyone have same kind of problem? Please post it here. Thanks.

@naijacutee

am not holding brief for those who behave in stupid ways. but what am saying is that, there a lot of lack in the lives of many Nigerians here. And some of these lacks are primary things of life that one should have by default. So, most times peoples behaviour is informed by these circumstances both the doer and even those who are supposed to police them. A security man at the airport here may just be looking at someone drop a can on the ground without (security) doing anything. Reason, could be that he's not motivated due to non payment of his salary and this (unpaid salary) situation could trigger some other problems for this security personnel. But find out why his salary has not been paid. Someone somewhere may have put 3 months salary for the entire ministry into a fixed deposit account.Just an example.

You have completely lost touch with reality. No offense meant plz. Where are u? You talk like you don't even live in this society, or if you do, you don't feel it!
Have you ever been hungry in your life? Have gone hungry for a day? How did u feel plz. Have ever been financially cheated? Was it painful at all. How would you feel if your elder bros or sis uses your school fees to buy drinks for his/her party? Every infrastructure here has completely collapsed, most people are not sure of their next salary. Everyone is so unsure about tomorrow, the govt comes up every other day with harsh economic policies and nothing to cushion the effects, why would someone in such delima reason well. These people are reminded daily how billions kept in a fellow country man's care is wasted, stolen and nothing's done to the fellow, then you want me at the lower cadre, with all the hard times to think well about public care? that should be a joke. Change should practically start from the TOP. Q.E.D.

@fidrach.:
The issue is not that govt should provide everything. For instance, am not expecting govt to train my children in school. But I cannot build roads, I cannot provide Electricity, I cannot form an effective honest police force, I cannot form a strong, efficient and sincere legal system, I cannot form a good customs and immigration force. I don't have a license to build a private, working and world class airport. I cannot make the prices of petroleum products cheap, neither can any individual or a group of individual achieve any of these in Nigeria without the govt sincerely in support of it. All these and more are the exclusive duties of the govt, not individuals.It is when these infrastructure are in place that you can now expect individuals to play their own parts. There is nothing hunger cannot cause. If you have been starved for a long time, when u finally see the food, you will eat, eat, eat and stuff your bag with food unless someone puts a check on you and implement the penalty for over-eating. So u dont expect an individual in Nigeria to stop unpatriotic pratices while the leaders, keepers of the law are busy stealing govt fund. Cant you guys get the issue right?
Politics › Re: Breaking News by emmydee(op): 5:20pm On Jul 04, 2008
The issue is that the leaders and even those who aspire to replace the ones there do not wish the country to "Better" for the general populace. They only wish it to better for themselves. C, it is not as if Nigeria is looking for fund to carry out projects and make the country better, but the funds are there and they are only stealing the money. Most of us tot that when IBB leaves, it will end. Some even tot that with the exit of Abacha, we will c light. And many believed that with democracy, our new leaders would start a rebuilding process. What are we experiencing today? No one tot that by the year 2008 Nigeria wont have electricity, even U.

@Regular:
it does not matter what happens in other nations, we are talking about what happens here. We are not interested in comparison in corruption or crime. This is our land and our administrators are busy scooping our resources, which should have been used in concrete developmental projects. Nigeria started development race with Brazil and Malaysia, Today, Brazil has crossed over to The Developed World, Nigeria is still preparing. If u try opening a web page and after 30 mins, the page is still trying to load, in most cases, you will quit. The development race of Nigeria has been over stagnant. It has failed, the nation has failed. simple.

@spikedcylinder

They cant stop throwing pure water bags cos they're used to it. It will take a long time and a clearly implemented system for them to stop doing that. They have now learnt how to que at BRT bus stops. Check out how Donald Duke kept Calabar. Most of these people have hunger and housing problems embedded in their schedule. Some even have health problems they dont have money to treat. Some of them waka pass where they're going cos their mind don waka leave them. .Let the FG give us light, good roads, potable water, highly subsidized and affordable health care, good housing, access to basic education especially for the poor, good transport systems, good and efficient justice system, accountability, show concern for the citizenry, then you will see that most of these vices would fizzle out.

@spikedcylinder.

The way you respond to issues related to corruption and embezzlement of our public fund is awful. Even if you benefit from such wealth, that's not good enough reason to support evil. Dont you have conscience? money meant for more than 150M million Nigerians, less than 10% of you have taken it and are still scooping to the detriment of the society in which you live, if you actually do.
Culture › Re: Why Is Nigerian Society So Damn Corrupt? by emmydee(m): 11:31am On Jul 04, 2008
The only set of people that can make Nigeria a better place are our leaders in Government. If they are ready, every other person will be ready.
When you say, "dont misappropriate any public fund in your care" and someone goes contrary to the directive and gets heavily punished, no one else would commit such offense, or dont you think so?
Culture › Re: Why Is Nigerian Society So Damn Corrupt? by emmydee(m): 11:27am On Jul 04, 2008
You c, most of you get it wrong. The number 1 vitality to making Nigeria a better place is Money! And our administrators are simply busy scooping this money. if you put N4.5B in any industrial establishment in Nigeria, that firm would create more than 1500 new jobs. All the money these people are stealing when put into good use could make Nigeria a near Heaven!
