Don't blame them,after stealing Apple's patents,copying apple's designs blindly,riding on apple's back to success,they still got mouth,they are no different from their Chinese brothers that trive on piracy.

alextayo: I met one sweet pretty lady here last year. We were actually planning to settle down when irreconcilable differences about religious belief reared its ugly head. I am a conservative Catholic (and can NEVER change for any denomination) while she is Pentecostal. She wants me to meet her pastor for courtship approval which i dont really subscribe to but intend to do since a lady has right over wedding plans. Then then took things further by declaring that

1) she wont attend my church after wedding because she is also an active member in her Pentecostal church

2) I will leave my Catholic faith and join her church because she wants her husband to support her future calling. (future calling my ass)

3)lastly she wants the kids to also attend her church.

How can I, a staunch catholic, Choirmaster and Organist be going west and my family will be going east on sunday to worship God...the family that prays together stays together.....that the end of our story

You guyys did not realy fall in love,wen u do,ur denominations will not stand in ur ways...am not sayin it won't matter,but it won't "stand in ur ways"

5minsmadness: You really want to know? Ok.
Its not about ego, its about respect.
Am sure your parents don't greet you first thing in the morning, they would have taught you that greeting your elder is the curteous thing to do. Apart from indicating that you wish the person well it shows politeness, that you were well brought up. We are not in the western setting when you see your father and greet him by his first name e.g "Hi Steve". Its an insult in our setting. Even the westerners are beginning to realise that there is a missing link in setting a foundation for their kids to show respect to the elders among them.

Forget all these single ladies and those married females who come online to type long epistles because they feel oppressed in their matrimonial homes due to no fault of ours and find Nairaland as a place to vent their frustrations. Many of the married ones will never admit it but they will even kneel down to greet their husbands in their homes then come here and start spreading like peacock. The single ones shouting are still single for a reason. They are either small girls or they are old babes who have no respect and no man worth his salt will go near any of them for a serious relationship-hence their singleness.

The boys supporting these women are mainly little kids looking for likes and an opportunity to PM these single ladies later so they can "hook-up".

A responsible and respectable man approaches a woman for a relationship and when he sees she is wife material he will go ahead and propose, approach the woman's family, do introduction, pay bride price, follow all the regular procedures and then give the woman the white wedding of her dreams. The woman does not marry him under duress i.e by force, she marries him of her own free will. She marries him because she has fallen in love with him and knows that he will be able to take care of her needs for the rest of his life.. This is a huge responsibility. That is enough to accord him that respect. He has earned it. It is a little thing to show that respect by greeting him first thing in the morning. It is just common courtesy and shows that the woman is a good woman, a woman who is proud of her husband.

Those single girls typing a thousand words and trying to encourage themselves in their false beliefs will continue to remain single if they practice this antagonistic behaviour outside the internet. Don't get carried away by their friendly exchanges and seemingly smart wit. They are lonely and looking for who to add to their club.

Wow!are u insinuating that apart wt ur parent tot u,u can't tink for yasef?as good as their intentions were ,it was based on their own mentality and background, u shud know better than ur parent,that is y they send u to schoo,that aside wt is ur personal conviction?for god sake saying goodmornin to a younger person does not make u inferior rather It shows maturity

Yea.your parent cud have tot u that,but the moment u grow up,u know better,there are so mab

5minsmadness: A respectful wife will greet her husband first. It won't even be a matter for argument.
A man who actively greets his wife first thing in the morning is a pvssy.

Seriously? What is the meaning of good morning first of?in simple term u r affirming or wishing som1 "a good morning"so wt is the big deal on whu greets first,even an adult can say goodmornin first to a child,an it does not cost a tin.,again first ask ursef the Meaning literally.I greet my younger brother first wen I cal him on fon,its just a wish(like merrychristmas)an it can come from anyone;its haggling over issues like this that gives many people high blood pressure!

neuljosh: y'all shouting 6 kids and above. Please Nigeria is already over populated we don't want to be seen as the next China or India with Billions as population. Back to topic: for me 3 kids maximum, 2 boys and a girl will do.

#teambirthcontrol

And u think ur own seed Will not add to the growing world population ?if u r too concerned about further increase,just excercise restraint ;Don't bother giving birth,let that be ur contribution to population control and posterity will forever cherish an immortalise you

dvee2: FIFA don't care who is the chairman of our NFF as long as the right process is done as they did now.

There is nothing like right process.government determines WU bcomes NFF president,"he wu pays the piper dictates tune"FIFA IS A JOKE!

edi287: Kojo williams or segun odegbami would be perfect...time to revamp our football. Maigari didn't do too badly though.

Kojo Williams-the best NFA president we never had

ikevin: Can't these guys wait till the upcoming elections, I guess Maigari have bitten more than he can chew. It is a season of impeachment in Nigeria.

Wait till election ke?,so he can manipulate the process an perpetuate himself in power for a second term,then wen his tenure ends ,he will install his allies,and the rot continues...who says dont mix football an politics?these are politicians naa!

These people are the Same-of-the-same.wen they get there they will do worst,is it not Maigari that impeached his predecessor now he is been served the same bitter-pill.Fifa guys are punch of jokers,they said they don't want government interference in football,yet that same government finances NFF.if Maigari goes,am sur his successors will be worst.

harev16: There may be a definite span assuming everything takes a natural course but an accident or unprecedented events can terminate Life at any point in time so will the countdown run instantaneously to zero in a matter of seconds?

Who knows if the accident is part of the span,every day u wake,u are taking a step closer to ur grave,whether young or old

Why don't the likes of VIOs,FRSC,LASTMA disturb commercial bus vehicles operators the same way they disturb and harass private car owners?is it because the private owners,are more gentlemenly?

hensben: Enugu is beautiful, I wonder why people still crowd lagos, maybe because of seaport that's there.

Its high time we develope other places to be mega/commercial city like lagos.

Based on the plan that federal government had with the worldbank,;after lagos the next place to be turned to a mega city is KANO,Onicha an port Harcourt.

Blackvampire: Op i rep asaba..the most peaceful n quiet city..in nigeria..asaba amaka

Peaceful and quiet?wht do u say to Enugu?

Minimum of One,maximum of two!

Dozens of people are dead people are mourning and the OP is only concerned about wu is gaining and loosing?when have we become so insensitive to the pain and agony of others,because they are not related to us

harev16: Nice piece... But I think the idea of a countdown to the grave is a little out of place. Life has no definite span, so you can't countdown to the unknown

Life has a definite span,just that man does not know it.

Are u aware the LNG project will be supplied gas from the Niger-delta? So it makes more economic sense to site the project in the Niger-area.
As par ajaokuta,if I start we no go Finnish today,because even federal government has not been able to Finnish.

Trustyd1: Akanu Ibiam himself master minded the creation of Ebonyi state. A state named after the ebonyi river that flows round the state. I'm from Onicha. So there's nothing unfortunate there. Though we're the minority but maybe AfiaOha state will be better. Afikpo and Ohaozara.

Was akanu ibiam alive wen ebonyi was created? Idont get u on that?

ekpesa: except the one that was expelled from school,they all drop out wit a growing biz in their hands. so be sure of what you are doing if you admire their path.

Even at that ,some of them ,if not all have gone back to school to sharpen their skills further an gain more know-how.so school is still important.

seanet01: Please STFU. Tell me where a Non indigene is representing Students in any Northern or Eastern state? A commissioner or special adviser I may agree, but a student affairs representative must be familiar with those he is representing.

Issa yuguda's special adviser on media is a yoruba man,wake up from ur dreams,because u can't see beyond your nose.besides the students are nt protesting against the position but against the individual.wt is more important,the man's state of origin or wt he brings to the table?.blacks are the first to cry of marginalisation in nations all over the world,but come home ,we don't like our selves.

tit: i do not mean her looks,
though i know you would riot,
if she were announced Miss Nigeria
Even if you wind back time
to when she was nineteen.

But she has an ugly, dirty, lieing, lazy, thieving mind.

Oby is a total woman,complete package,beautiful inside-out,with brain to match.

Yet we all clap our hands wen we hear "a nigerian has become a mayor in Ireland,a nigerian has become anMP in Ukraine,a nigerian has become a councilor in Canada,a Kenyan has become an american president"but is a taboo for som1 from one state to vie or occupy a political appointment in another,inside his onw country?tht is the height of hypocrisy!

tit: The ugly bitch's reason s that she has not run for elective partisan office.
Neither has MAku.

Ugly? That's uncalled for

tit: The ugly bitch's reason s that she has not run for elective partisan office.
Neither has MAku.

Ugly? That's uncalled for!

tit: So Maku could wake up tomorrow and declare he has never done politics?

Is she d same as Maku?that basket-mouth?do u know maku's background?maku is the one engineering the removal of nassarrawa state governor,with the help of his paymaster-Jona,of course he wants to be the next governor of the state?

Of course she has never been a career-politician.ibeg mek una leave aunty Oby alone.

It beats ones imagination to think the amount of gas been flaired is enof to supply those nations ,and still enof to solve our epileptic power problem.

Alexk2: My heart skiped @ the mention of OKLNG. these are huge employment generating
firms that can turn the economy of the country around in few years.
I did my 6mths SIWES there in 2009 and i'm very much aware of how
irresponsible our govt can be by not showing commitment in the best of
ideas.
OKLNG is jointly owned by SHELL(19.50%), CHEVRON(19.50%), BG(14.25%) and
NNPC(40%) but BG pulled out coz of poor commitment from the FG and
there share was shared btw NNPC and Chevron(22.74%)....unfortunately,
Shell and Cheron pulled out in 2012 and 2013 respectively for same
reason and rendering many jobless in the process. I'm aware Dangote and
other locals biz mogul are coming in to save OKLNG...pray itz true.

Same
collabo. with brass and others.

Nigeria need serious prayer from bad leadership coz our suffering isnt
because of what we dont have but greed and selfishness.

That project was politically Motivated by OBJ,was never based on economic factor,just like Ajaokuta steel.

MOBJECTIVE: Why is the government making it so difficult for car companies to test their products by siting the standards facilities all over the country?

Its call fedral character,even wen it does not make economic sense.if we we to go by economic realities,most of those centres will be in NNEWI,they are aready used to such.

Omooba77: Imagine Toyota assemblying plant;chaiiii custom go no know daris God oh,less importation.....

That is not new,there's already somtin in that format,through ELIZADE TOYOTA.

Abiagirl777: ALAYI,i mentioned it up there

@Abiagirl.won't u even aknowldge or reciprocate? Not a good sister
