Sincere 9gerian:
Abuses, insults and curses will not, cannot and can never facilitate your dream of turning Nigeria to Tinubu's empire.

But you too have your own share if blame that is why they can insult you. I hardly comment on NL but this story caught my eye and when you read it you will notice that the fellow took pains to show that a. There are people in Nigeria that are fraudulently saying they are TI and that TI has refuted them. That is not a lie. b. Then he said that TI never listed Nigeria as 8th most corrupt nation. That is not a lie. By the time you start to insult yourself and your friends don't be surprised when others join you I. Insulting yourself.

Gbawe:

Dude, after all that has been copiously pointed out, you still convince yourself that is the limitation of what Omokri said? I think it is clear to all that you are the one insulting yourself with your unbelievable utterance. After it has been proven, beyond doubt, Omokri engaged in fraud and deliberate misinformation you are still able to hold brief for him? I wonder how you think people perceive you in light of your frivolous attempt at defending what even a child will know looks very bad for Omokri.

Insult me all you want, I will neither get angry or insult you back. All I have been asking for is that you answer the issues raised in the rebuttal which to refresh your memory are as follows;


i. The Global Barometer IS NOT a ranking done by Transparency International. It is a survey of how CITIZENS feel about their country and in any case it NEVER rated Nigeria the 8th most corrupt nation in the world.

ii. The ONLY ranking that Transparency International does is the annual Corruption Perception Index and TI has not released one for this year thus any headline that says NIGERIA LISTED AS 8th MOST CORRUPT NATION is FALSE.

If these are lies then produce evidence to convince us that the Omokri dude has lied. No matter how much you insult the truth it will not become a lie so save your insults for those on whom they are effective and produce evidence to back your claims.

Gbawe:

Dude, quit with the dishonesty and spin. This is what you people do all the time. You are telling me "rather than insulting" as if I have no reason for that when ALUU barbarians, as they have been doing from thread to thread, mentioned me on the first page as the subject of their e-lynching. These fools are doing this now throughout the forum going around shouting Gbawe, Illugunboy, take dat, demdem, Garri et al and invoking the names of other posters, unprovoked, into their idiocy. I now hit them back hard and you are talking of insult? Are you for real? Just shows how patently biased you are. Go back to the first page and see whether I have a reason to be polite to any of the cretins here.

Secondly, what are you going on about? Did PM ever tell you that TI conducted the global corruption barometer or did they accurately report that it is the collated opinion of citizens that TI produced for their 2013 global corruption Barometer? See below what PM reported and stop this revisionism you think is helping your pathetic attempt at damage limitation.

Additionally, I don't know what point you seek to make by discountenancing the statistical collation of how citizens perceive corruption in their own nation. Is it not a very relevant index, to be taken seriously, considering that it is those actually living the life and wearing the shoes who can tell that corruption has indeed worsened and that the shoe pinches more. Dude, just walk away and stop talking.

PM did nothing wrong here. Omokri did and so too all the other idiots here who blindly allowed themselves to be led on a path of lies because of their clannish and senseless hatred for everything and everyone they perceive to be against their very corrupt, flawed and misruling messiah.

Gbawe, have I insulted you? I don't think so. So treat me as I have treated you. Apart from insults and using foul language you have not responded to the issues raised by the rebuttal. Omokri in his piece did not say anything other than that TI HAS NOT listed Nigeria as the 8th most corrupt nation and that as a matter of fact they have not released their CPI for 2013. Thus any headline that says Nigeria Listed as 8th Most Corrupt Nation is FALSE. If you agree then we have no controversy. If, however, what you are saying is that SR and PM News relied on the Global Barometer and not the TI official CPI then two issues arise. First, the Barometer DOES NOT LIST NIGERIA AS 8th MOST CORRUPT NATION. Secondly, the Barometer is not a yardstick for measuring corruption. ANYBODY WHO HAD READ SR AND PM NEWS INITIAL REPORT WOULD HAVE THOUGHT TI HAS RATED NIGERIA 8TH MOST CORRUPT NATION WHICH IT HAS NOT. Go through Omokri's piece again and perhaps you may understand his reasoning.

But Gbawe, rather than insulting why don't you calm down and face the issues which are as follows;

i. The Global Barometer IS NOT a ranking done by Transparency International. It is a survey of how CITIZENS feel about their country and in any case it NEVER rated Nigeria the 8th most corrupt nation in the world.

ii. The ONLY ranking that Transparency International does is the annual Corruption Perception Index and TI has not released one for this year. This is true. If this is a lie then disprove it with facts. Please don't insult me and others just give us the evidence and close our mouths forever. Has TI released the CPI for 2013? Does it list Nigeria as 8th most corrupt nation? If yes then Omokri is a liar. If no, then he is telling the truth and you are the liar. Simples!

iii. Relying on insults in your responses only shows that you have no case and want to turn this intellectual exercise to a fight to divert attention from the fact that you have no basis for your claims. Let your evidence do the talking not your insults.

The Global Barometer which you claimed as your source did not say Nigeria is the 8th most corrupt nation. The Barometer is not even the yardstick that TI uses to rank corruption. The ranking is done based on the Corruption Perception Index. I would urge all readers to read the so called Barometer and also urge the poster to quote where Nigeria was so ranked.

TV/Movies / Big Brother Africa Stargame Faces Massive Disruption by fbiswagger: 11:46pm On Jun 19, 2012
One cannot ignore the fact that this year’s (2012) Big Brother Edition tagged ‘Big Brother Stargame’ was meant to be the best and most thrilling ever in comparison to previous Big Brother Africa editions. However, with over a month to the end of the game, the Big Brother Stargame house has experienced eight ( 8 ) unforeseen evictions. Four of these being as a result of health / emotional issues of a partner and the other four resulting from the violation of the house rules, of which earned them an expulsion from the game.

Without missing anything, I think this is the first time the Big Brother Africa reality show would be experiencing such massive disruption to the show. The nearest to this was the disqualification of Mr. Hannington Kavuma of Uganda during the Big Brother 5: All Stars season due to same rule violation. Nonetheless, the case of Mr. Hannington was an isolated case and really didn’t or in fact, didn’t cause any disruption to the game.

Still on the Big Brother Africa Stargame; two weeks ago...
