Ever since my male coworker called me ugly, I have never been the same mentally, I have lived the past few months thinking I am ugly. The trauma of that event has left me forever damaged psychologically.

Please guys help me out, how do I lift myself above this spiteful attempt at my self-esteem?

Op, i do dig your point of view n as someone who likes been opened minded about issues, i applaud u for some cogent points mentioned.

Just a quick question though: why have they been flaunting directives since 2009?
There is no directive ncc wud pass across they wud willingly obey. Is it because itz now getting into their head that they r major players in nigerian telco n comtributes to d gdp . They now feel we need them more than they need us? They want to b treated like sacred cows just like our politicians? Huh?

Nobody is above the law, if they must continue operation here, they have to abide by ncc directives.

Dear Nigerians, each time I read comments regarding this MTN penalty madness by NCC, I end up wondering if most of the comments were just for fun or realistic opinion of the commentators both on Nairaland and other top social sites. The Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC slammed a N1.4 trillion penalty on MTN Nigeria for failure to disconnect customers with unregistered SIM cards. That fine is outrageous please! We have to stop the sentiments. I don't see MTN paying that huge amount of money. They have given reasons why they were reluctant with the SIM card deactivation thing which I believe is credible and reasonable enough.

We should not forget that MTN has the largest data base of users in Nigeria and they care so much about their customers more than the unfriendly policy.
They wanted a gradual process to the issue which favoured their customers more. Trust most Nigerians, registration of our SIM has always been an issue because of our 'attitudes'. MTN even called some customers, pleaded on many of them and even used free bonuses to encourage subscribers to register and update their SIM but many still refused. That's how we roll in Nigeria Now, deactivating those SIMs would have resulted to severe difficulties for users who had genuine reasons for their inability to update their account.
Yes, MTN violated the law but justice can be tampered with mercy. MTN has done so much for this country: from infrastructural development to massive man power empowerment and development. From educational development to massive entertainment industry boost, in summary, MTN corporate social responsibility programmes are highly commendable and among the best in this country. MTN has changed lives in this country: many people can pay their bills because of this same company. MTN has done so much for us and should be respected please.Their (MTN) investments in the telecom sector have affected other telecom giants positively. This embarrassment against MTN should stop please. MTN is not like all these Indian and Lebanese companies that reserve most juicy management positions for their own citizens only, MTN pays their direct workers (Nigerians) very well unlike most of these foreign companies operating in Nigeria i.e ISON BPO. Top management players in MTN Nigeria are Nigerians. I strongly believe they should be respected and the large data
base and services the company operates here in Nigeria should be considered too. It's not easy to adhere to such rule while having such data base like that of MTN.
For those calling for MTN to leave
I laugh in Chinese and Zulu Yes, if MTN leaves Nigeria, it will surely affect the company heavily but we will suffer it more. Our economy will suffer and unemployment will rise. You are calling on Nigerians to port to Glo and others: wait until any of these telecom companies handle the number of subscribers MTN is currently handling, then you will appreciate MTN better...I can bet you, many of them will collapse! They will not be able to handle such huge traffic.
Those of you calling MTN names
Can you count how many times you have cheated MTN to browse for free? Do you think the infrastructures used for internet services are bought for free? Do you think it is easy to maintain a business in the Nigerian environment with poor power and transportation sectors? Think again please! Don't ever forget that you benefit from MTN directly or indirectly. For those of you crying about MTN promo, did MTN force you into any promo? And most of us don't read terms and conditions of these services and promo from MTN and others.
MTN does not force you to subscribe to any of her services. Yeah, some marketing strategies are deployed to lure customers into certain services but it's still left for you to opt-in and opt-out. I can beat my chest to say that since 2009 I started using MTN line, I have never experienced any reason to accuse them of stealing. I rather say thank you to MTN than accuse MTN of stealing from me. Subscribers make the mistake of subscribing for one service or the other and finally accuse MTN of stealing from them. Some subscribers leave their app running on the background while their airtime gets deducted and they blame it on MTN. You're asking DSTV to leave as if it is DSTV that's working against an indigenous company from doing well in the same market. We complain about MTN and we still don't want to leave them, why? Other telecom companies should compete well with MTN or is it MTN that prevented Glo from taking over other African countries? MTN remains the best network in Nigeria and Africa, take it or leave it. The company should be respected and appreciated too. At least, they accepted to invest in the Nigerian telecom industry back then when other companies where shying away from Nigeria. They made the sector attractive. They made the industry lucrative, they believed in Nigeria when others didn't. I love MTN with my whole heart. Please, we should empathize with them instead of slamming them.

Are Nigerian engineers taught anything like aethestic design in school?
The bike probably works, but it looks trashy due to poor aethestic design.
The aethestic part is just as important as the electro-mechanical aspect.

I hope I don't get crucified for saying this, I just noticed that men are overly obsessed with big mammary glands..

Someone said he's not finding his fiancee sexually attractive because she has small boobs but she is very beautiful...

This got me thinking ,, my advice to such girls that fall into this category, they should please look out for very core Christian brothers that overlook such distinct features in a Lady... lolsss..Or do we still have great jazzi or happening guys that don't bother themselves much about this?

If a man can come openly on National tv and say "I av never taken a bribe before"

I will give him benefit of doubt until some one comes up with bribery allegation with evidence the way we caught Farouk Lawan on video.

This is where investigative journalism is needed but as usual the lazy folks just collect money from a group of people, sit down and manufacture stories.

We should stop the basterdized mindset of "every body is a thief". That you don't have moral strength does not mean Nobody does.

Tribunal nullifies APC lawmaker’s election for not attaining 30yrs

* Orders fresh elections within 90 days

The election of the All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmaker representing Suleja constituency in the Niger State House of Assembly, Hon. Murtala Badaru, has been nullified by the State and National Assembly elections petitions tribunal in Minna, the Niger state capital.

Shaibu Iya of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had challenged the election of Badaru on the grounds of certificate forgery and underage.

In his judgment, Olatunde Oshodi, chairman of the tribunal, said Badaru was not found guilty of certificate forgery as alleged by the petitioner.

However, Oshodi nullified the election on the ground that Badaru has not attained the constitutional age of 30 years, required to be a lawmaker.

He nullified the election and ordered the Independent National Electoral Commisssion (INEC) to conduct fresh elections within 90 days‎.

Reacting, Chris Osuagwu, counsel to Badaru, told journalists that his client would appeal the judgment.

Meanwhile, the tribunal had affirmed the election of Musa Sule (APC-Kachia) in the state house of assembly.

The tribunal held that Ibrahim Ndaman of the PDP, failed to prove‎ beyond reasonable doubt that Sule forged his certificate from Zungeru Polytechnic and was an ex-convict.

It dismissed the case for lack of merit and ordered the petitioner to pay the sum of N100, 000 each to the first (Sule) and second (APC) respondents in the matter as cost.‎
