I really like the way she looks in "cabbu baby" looks like what i call ideal.

Please let them release this guy who was only "armed" with shoes.

The shoe manufacturer for the recent "shoe throw" incidence between US president George Bush and the Iraqi Journalist,Muntader al-Zaidi says that his Turkish factory has sold thousands of the shoe model- 271 after the shoe throw and complains he needs to employ more workers because the work force in his factory works all night to meet the consumers demand for the shoe.

He said:"Out of every bad thing, there will be some good". Meaning he is really maximizing profit, model 271 is just about $35. Thanks to our Journalist Muntader al-Zaidi. . Meanwhile the Shia Leader in Iran asked the Iraqi government to secure Zaidi's shoes in the Iraqi museum as the country's national hero.

So many lost souls will support the move.

No, I don't think so.

This is very funny. When me get person wey reject Ipod touch engraved with her name.

Riskie:
So cute! Masha Allah!

Do you want to wed him or what? . Because I don't know what "Masha Allah" means to a young boy following the steps of the arrogant 50 or Jay-z in the U.S.

lucabrasi:
no one has a right to criticise the nigerian situation if you have refused to either go back home or participate in changing the status quo,the convenient excuse diasporans a[b]ll over mouth off is that they r staying away because of the present crop pf leadership,how else would you effect a change if you r staying several thousand miles away[/b]

I ask the same question. How?

I don't know why some people have a great admiration of the life abroad. Like my mum always says:"London is just like Lagos" You hustle your way through and work the living day out of ass even when you're a professional. I have traveled to some parts of the world particularly Europe, but not to get a job. But believe me, Nigeria is not as bad as many spoilers make it. We wont have any meaningful progress if everyone starts to talk against a system that is not believed to be moving. I can never travel to the US to make some bucks, not at the time things are really falling apart. Why must you endure this hardship when I know personally of many Americans who complain about the situation their country? I feel so sick when I heard one guy I know very well traveling to the States (3 weeks ago) to make money. He wants to marry an American for a card. Must you become a slave to a minority controlling the affairs of the States?

Am coming back to Nigeria, but believe me, when people say you come to suffer- I can't but marvel at their ignorance. We need to change the way our country is and the way people think of this country (Nigeria). I know some people suffer harshly, but how do you help the situation when your labor only goes to the selfish, inhumane, and autocratic governance of the US?

**I know many will say we are free there*** Free indeed.  

You know what, I receive lots of them, I only click spam and delete all those junk at the end of the month. The funny thing is I have been too busy to even reply just one of them. But one day I replied one screaming. Bleep off!!!!

KarmaMod:
This seriously makes sense to you? 

You would have  aproblem with her having male friends because you would think its "non innocent" yet you want her to think otherwise for you?

I think it's a tad funny that  you find it weird that she has started to withdraw from you 

better find a way to talk to her and hopefully she'll believe you're not a plkayboy. supposedly

Thanks for your advice. I would look into changing some of my ways.

Muza:
yahoo boy,you don't want to know the cost of that wifi,think about the number of people that dnt have portable water,think about the bad roads.
How many people in enugu state hav laptops?
How many people will benefit from this. . .

Haba yahoo boy don't be selfish,think about the others

Am not a yahoo boy, and would never fall to the level of defrauding others. That's against my principles, while the need to install pipe-borne water and regular electric power is important within every state in Nigeria. Schools would benefit a lot from such an investment (free Wifi).

Have you thought of Nigerian Universities such as the one in Enugu (if there is) subscribing to internet services to view academic journals from sites such as Jstore, Google scholar. It would help professors and students advance in their academic pursuits and learn the importance of being original to reduce plagiarized work in Nigerian Universities. It is only Nigeria that you would see people thinking free internet is unnecessary and capital intensive. There are a number of benefits, and you guys come around saying to people who want to effect changes to the system- "you're obsolete". Who could be more obsolete than those you hinder positive development?

Just think about making the State- Enugu and all others one of the 21st century. If I say we need to channel the nation's wealth into manufacturing and development, another will say it is too late.

Nigerians when will you wake?

steve49ja:
this issue na wa
imo
i guess she got jealous and you ignored when you were suppose to straighten things.
after the introduction, you realised your girl wasnt the same, why didnt you talk to her?
if she felt threatened, why didnt she demand an explanation?
maybe she feels you aint giving her much attention
does your female friends send you love text messages? maybe she saw one
to clear doubts. . . talk with her
since she aint ignoring your calls yet you have a chance to straighten things before she concludes on whatever she's thinking and decide to move on ofcourse without you.

Yeah, after the introduction, I did not sit with that other girl anymore. I just went to sit right next to her and we made a chat. Anyway, I sent her a text message yesterday, saying I think she was ignoring me after I made a call in which she didn't answer. She objected immediately by sending an instant message the second after my sms that she was outside her room and her phone wasn't with her.

Girls . We talked at length on the phone, but I would see her this weekend to make a self confession on the grievances she has for bobo. Pray things work out well with us.

Thank you all for your concern and support

Frizy

Why do some people love criticizing? Now that there is meant to be a free Wifi service within the State, is that not a form of development? How will Nigeria grow when the majority never see any progress about to be made beneficial?

PapaBrowne:
Mr Frizzy,
Your ways are obsolete maaan!!!
Looks like you want 2 take us back 2 the 14th century.

I was wondering why your speech was sooo out of touch, until I read your other posts.

Can't you just get it? Nigerians really do want to move forward.
We aren't looking for some Sharia kind of system.
It didn't work in the north, it wouldn't work in Nigeria.

If Nigeria really do has to move forward, we need progressive ideologies, not those that u've stated here.

Please what is so obsolete about these ideas? Nigeria wants to move forward, but can we move when the majority don't have good intentions of making the country developed. I said it is my intention to make Nigeria a superpower, does that sound obsolete?

We are talking about demolishing majority of the houses that do not need the required standards and building state-of-the-art buildings for people to live in at prices that are affordable even for the poor.
Where, water, gas, air-conditioning, internet facilities, and constant electricity using wind mill technology is readily available in every home. Is that Obsolete

Tell me?

KarmaMod:
If she had alot of male friends, would you be fine with it?

simple question

No, but am not the flirty type. Do you then propose that I keep away from other girls I have no intentions towards? Should also keep away from having friends among boys?

While I can't tolerate her with other male friends, I think I may be secluding myself if I refuse to talk to other girls. I try to even make her friends with other girls I know would not mislead her. Please, I have done something wrong- when I think am innocent.

In the Name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful

It is at the peak of my desire to ensure that the degradation of the country Nigeria in terms of the socio-economic well-being of every citizen within the Federation is controlled and reformed to improve the status of our country positively at home and abroad. Nigeria has suffered immensely owning to the lack of developmental insight of past governmental administration and redundancy among the followers of such a government. Brothers and sisters, the continuous outrage that portrays a negative way of thinking among Nigerians about their government has an obvious implication that the people who were elected to power have failed to gain the necessary credibility on their efforts to make the nation developed. When trust is lacking, and when the majority suffer harshly with no deductive outcome of what their benefit is from the government of a nation, then there has to be a deliberation on whether to continue to live that way under the government or consider another form of governance that would serve the people and make them grow.

I am impressed about the way the youth within the Nigerian society come out to voice their grievances about the way the nation is being governed. I do not say a revolt is the only solution to ensure that people are dealt with justly but a meaningful cry of the infant is better than the silence advocated by the elderly. At this point, Nigeria needs youth from all areas of life who will sacrifice their lives and property to ensure that the society is changed to become a rival Federation to any developed nation of the world. I implore each and every graduate and undergraduate alike who has Nigeria’s welfare at heart to unite and form a union. This union if established in the proper sense of it would partake at the preliminary stage to helping the poor by providing pipe borne water in villages, water dispensers facilities in major cities within the country, and establishing a media house that hears the feeble’s cry at the point of oppression. Uniting ourselves without the consideration of the tribe, ethic group or social status would help to build a strong network of those who love to do good. It may be of a surprise here, “why must we fix the problem, why should we not blame these men who call themselves our elders?” The answer is simple; we do the right thing for the love of God.

Members of the union are meant to represent the new set of politicians within the Nigerian society, educationalist, military and material scientist, Engineers, idealist, economist and jurist who only wish to develop the country to attain a goodly state in the afterlife. Christians and Muslims are invited to participate in the reform for a better Nigeria as long as the rationale between the individual parties opinion are morally and ethically acceptable.

The primary objective of this union would be:
1. To lead Nigeria to become Africa’s superpower
2. To establish a new set of political appointees from the youth into the Nigerian government, from positions including but not limited to: Head of State/Commander in Chief/President, Governor, Senator, Chairmen of local constituency in individual states, Military/Defense Secretary and so on.
3. To establish a new economic system
4. To ensure a significant infrastructural development on roads, housing, schools, religious institutions, broadcast media, facilities, and hospitals.
5. To utilize funds from the government to improve the lives of every citizenry
6. To control crimes by establishing a just judiciary institution
7. To manufacture equipment within Nigeria including but not limited to: Fighter planes and tanks for the nations’ defense, electronics, industrial plants and so on.
8. To create a sane Nigeria where people act more on respect of one another, rather than slandering.

ever_green:
I think you should have sat her down and talk to her instead of coming here

Thanks bro. I think I would do that, I gave her a call two days but I wasn't so happy on some of her responses. Pretty unlike her.

Please don't try and diss me because am not really on the defensive. I have been close to one girl now for quite some time. We share a lot in common basically because we agree on issues most of time, and jokingly dismiss what we don't like. However, I have been observing changes (negative of course) like keeping distances nowadays. I have a lot of casual friends among women (please these are not girlfriends) but since the day I introduced her to one of my American friends who happens to be a lady, she just wasn't the same again.

I know I have my faults, and I think I have been selfish in some instances like she following me somewhere, and I saying I got to do something while she asked me to walk here somewhere. But I didn't do this intentionally, it was only what the situation dictated. Now I have always planned to marry this girl, and all other girls I call and talk to don't have that spot I have for this girl. For some reasons, I can't marry an American, but Arab girls are hot!

I love this girl so much, what can I do to avoid losing her?  

I just like Nigerians they . . .

It was President Umaru Yar'Adua that stirred the hornet's nest at the University of Ibadan when he declared that the nation's premier institution was just a local champion that refused to play the research game at the global level. The President, who spoke through the Minister of State for Education, Hajia Aishatu Dukku-Jibril, during the convocation of the university penultimate week, expressed regret that in spite of its age, the nation's premier university was not rated as one of the best 200 universities in the world. He, therefore, challenged the dons at the institution to wake up from their research and academic slumber and put the name of the university on the world educational map.

But dons and students of the university are not taking the President's criticism lightly. They believe the President has not only lost touch with reality but oblivious of happenings at the institution which started with 104 students in 1948.

The dons and students, who spoke with our correspondent at the university on Friday, said the institution apart from contributing over 75 per cent of human resources to the nation's workforce since independence, it has also contributed to the educational, socio-economic, political, scientific, technological development and the health sector of the nation.

"The President's comment is unfortunate, I think it came as a result of ignorance. However, I find it easy to forgive him because I'm sure someone wrote that speech for him. But on a second thought, I think it is not right for leaders not to cross-check facts in speeches written for them before they go to town with such," one of the dons, a professor of veterinary medicine, Bankole Oke, said.

Oke, who spoke with our correspondent after the closing ceremony of the exhibition organised to celebrate UI at 60 on Friday, said it was not easy to exonerate the President because his comments were unfair, not just on UI, but on the nation's university system.

He alleged that government, which owns the university, had not been fair to the institution in terms of funding and provision of facilities that could enhance teaching, learning and research.

"Look, there has never been a year that government releases the exact amount presented to it in our annual budget. The funds often released are never enough for overhead cost, let alone capital projects. Electricity supply is epileptic and in fact some of us (dons, researchers and scientists) have to go abroad to conduct research," he said.

Oke, who is also the coordinator of the exhibition, said university rankings were now being done based on the web presence of universities.

"Ranking is no longer done based on publications in journals. It is only people in the same area of specialisation that read the publications in specialised journals; those who rank universities now go to the Internet to assess the richness of a university site based on research breakthroughs and publications uploaded on such a site.

"If you are not there, you will be poorly ranked. But unfortunately for Nigerian universities, the epileptic power generation in the country and inadequate funds have limited their capacities to enjoy visible and robust presence on the Internet," he said.

So, rather than blaming the university for the lull in research activities, he said, the government should carry the blame.

Corroborating his colleague, a professor of soil science, John Ajayi, disclosed that inadequate power supply was the bane of the nation's academic development.

Ajayi, who has been in the university for 32 years, said decaying infrastructure, obsolete equipment, inadequate funding, ill-motivated staff, increased population and lack of   political will on the part of government to introduce tuition were responsible for the trend.




He said, "I've been in this university for 32 years. I can say that this is the worst year I have experienced in terms of power generation. For instance, the Faculty of Science did not have electricity supply for close to three months this year. Even for this three-day programme, we have to use generator all through and we all know that without energy supply, little or nothing can be done scientifically. So, government should live up to its responsibility."

But in spite of this, the former chairman, Academic Staff Union of Universities, UI Chapter, Dr. Ademola Da Sylva, said the university had not been folding its arms doing nothing. Da Sylva observed that the inability of the university to publicise most of its research findings was responsible for the president's position.

"This, in fact, informed the decision of the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Olufemi Bamiro, to put this exhibition together," he said.

At the exhibition, over 70 works, including inventions, innovations, useful information in terms of reports, monographs, patents and machineries, were showcased by all the seven faculties in the university.

Part of the breakthroughs exhibited by the Faculty of Technology, which came first in the exhibition, included fabricated technology for the processing and utilisation of agro-industrial waste and crop residues for wildlife husbandry, autoclave, juice extractor, fabricated waste paper processing machinery, fabricated maize sheller, waste paper recycling machine and an electric-powered water fountain come-aquarium invented by a 400 Level student of Electrical Electronics, Mr. Yusuf Ibrahim.

Also, a bio-gas renewable energy machine designed by Dr. Godson Anan of the Department of Environmental Health Science was exhibited.

According to Anan, the machine will help in reducing the nuisance of waste. Other machines displayed included rice dehauler, cabinet dryer, cassava grater, chipping machine and wood and agricultural sawdust briquetting machines.

Also old works and scripts of some prominent alumni of the university including Prof. Chinua Achebe, Prof. Wole Soyinka, sculptor Badaru Gbadamosi, late writer Amos Tutuola and Kola Ogunmola were displayed.

But of all the works on display, some of the students, including the President, Food Technology Students' Association, Mr. Fadeyi Ezekiel, said the artifacts displayed by the Department of Archeology and Anthropology impressed them the most. "They exposed me to our past. I'm really impressed with the old pictures that tell the story of the university," Ezekiel said.

Also, the Ogun State Governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel and former Chairman of Unilever PLC, Dr. Michael Omolayole, said they were impressed with the level of creativity displayed by the dons. They advised the university authorities to publish the institution's research findings for the benefit of the nation.

According to them, doing so will stimulate the interest of private investors and multinational firms to collaborate with the university to generate additional income for the university.

Daniel noted that science and technology remained the pillars of civilisation hence the need for all nations to pursue policies and programmes that would boost it.

Omolayole, who was chairman at the opening ceremony, had lamented that many intellectual properties that could be adapted for commercial purposes by investors were wasting away in many universities across the country.

He said as a result of this, the general public was completely unaware of the great discoveries and creativity which were products of painstaking researches carried out by the dons.

"I also appreciate the link between universities ad industries. It is not by chance that intellectual property especially technology, is being exported from one country to another," he said.

He, therefore, appealed to the authorities of the university to take a step further by making public some of the major scientific breakthroughs which could be marketed to local and foreign investors.

The Director-General, National Office for Technological Acquisition, Mr. Obioma Adiukwu-Brown, who expressed happiness at the high level of research works at UI said that his agency had been working to stimulate linkage between universities, research institutions and private entrepreneurs.

He also said NOTA was developing a robust intellectual property rights portfolio and was carrying out technical assistance and royalty negotiation between researchers and interesting firms.

In response, Bamiro, who said it was unfortunate that the president could not honour the invitation extended to him for the exhibition, said the institution would continue to explore ways of attracting development and commercialisation of the various research efforts of the institution. He added that some of the works had been patented.

He noted that the Faculty of Pharmacy had developed an Assay Reagent kit for drug analysis based on chemical derivatisation methodology.

The faculty had also discovered synthesis of potential non-toxic azo-dyes for textiles, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries.

Apart from this, Bamiro added that the faculty had formulated quinine suppositories for treatment of malaria and pharmacokinetic drug and drug interaction profiling to active optimal pharmacotherapy.

Some of the major breakthroughs recorded in the Faculty of Sciences included the fabrication of a digital EMF/PH metre, colorimeter, uninterrupted power supply and production of test tube rack, specimen tubes, cell culture and cooling base top, among others. To make the university more visible on the Internet. Bamiro said that the senate had ordered all cadres of lecturers from assistant lecturership to professorship level to ensure that all their works were uploaded into the site of the institution while it had also secured a grant from MacArthur Foundation to expand academic and research programmes in the institution.

Some of the dons, including Oke and the local chairman of ASUU, Dr. Ademola Aremu, expressed unhappiness at the absence of President Yar' Adua at the exhibition.

According to them, all the inventions and fabrication on display would have been enough to convince the president about the good works being done at the university in spite of all the challenges.

Aremu said that apart from thousands of its products working in various sectors of the national economy, over 26 UI academics were currently serving as Vice-Chancellors in universities within and outside the country.

The lecturers, however, admitted that neither UI nor any university in the country could grow beyond the level of governance in the country.

One of them, who teaches in the Faculty of Education, Dr. Kehinde Kester, said, "If they had ranked presidents or governments in the world, which position will he (Yar' Adua) or the Nigerian government be? I don't need to answer that question, all of us know.

"But singling out the university system for non-performance is an admission of failure on the part of the government, because a university system cannot be greater than the quality of funding it receives and the quality of leadership in a country.

"But with what you have seen here, you too can see that we are not just here doing nothing like those who seek power to enrich themselves."

I don't think the President's statement about UI should result to the anger among students and professors, the simple truth is that we need to work on our universities in Nigeria and change the way they are. We can't be "living with a past, world forgotten glory", if we do, we will never move ahead. No hard feeling.

Just check the rank of the best Universities in Africa then compare it to what the world ranking is in UI, is Mr. President's word not true?

Osunbor, am just getting to know this guy. How could an ex-governor fall so low by stealing plates and cutlery. . And Yar'adua is considering him as Niger deltan minister or governor. Is it until he steals the street lights, electric meters, and cushions (if any) in that region that this president would consider another man for the job. .

Nigeria, you be country.

OLAADEGBU:
@olabowale,

You can practice all the altaquiyya you want you cannot deceive me.  We are aware if you must know that the Koran describes Allah as the best deceiver there is, a liar who is not above using the same evil and wicked schemes of his opponents.  Before you start another Jihad lets see what your holy book says about Allah: The Koran calls Allah a makr, in fact the best makr there is:

But they (the Jews) were deceptive, and Allah was deceptive, for Allah is the best of deceivers (Wamakaroo wamakara Allahu waAllahu khayru al-makireena)! S. 3:54; cf. 8:30

There are other places in the Koran that identifies Allah as a makr such as:

Are they then secure from Allah's deception (makra Allahi)? None deemeth himself secure from Allah's scheme (makra Allahi) save folk that perish. S. 7:99 Pickthall

So they schemed a scheme: and We schemed a scheme (Wamakaroo makran wamakarna makran), while they perceived not. S. 27:50

There are many passages in the Koran like these that teaches its adherents in the game of deception just as you see the propagators of the religion does. Who is deceiving who?

Bobo yi, wa ma yi iwe sha? Ole.

Why is he such a frightening fellow?

Fellow you call Him? . I can see you just want to tease on and on so I wont respond to that.

davidylan:
why is allah all about retribution and vengeance?

Because He is not a friend to disbelievers who willing fully wish to scorn His worship, or derogate His Majesty when He it is that feedeth them. Lewd ingrates! Simple.

osisi*:
an idol of the quraish tribe of Mohammed's ancestors AKA allah has absolutely no power to ask anything of me.
The blood of Jesus is way mightier than it.

The absolute form of hypocrisy, I don't want to go on because I hate talking with haters like you. Get it?

We don't want your barbaric 14th century inhumane laws that were a mere concoction by a self proclaimed lunatic.

My heart bleeds with this statement of yours, if only you could see, how Allah would deal with you in the afterlife if you continue this way, you'll not only wish you didn't say it, you will wish you weren't born on earth.

Sharia is evil

.

It is only evil men and women that calls God's law evil. Indeed Allah will ask you to defend your statements, and for surety you will have none to defend you. Amin

@Negro_Ntns
Thanks for your meaningful contribution, I hope to answer your questions accordingly

Negro_Ntns:
1. Which legal system is the official jurisprudence of the Lagos State Government?

.

Common law. That always needs to be amended one time or the other, typically because it is fashioned by men who derive joy in ruling others.


2. Which school of thought or philosophical theory is that jurisprudence based upon?  

Philosophers of the men of old e.g. Aristotle who at some point prefer to use their sense of reasoning to create theories that may only be accepted by those who don't recognise anything greater than human intellectualism. Of course we know men tend to err, don't we?

3. Is this jurisprudence the sole legal system adopted by the Lagos State Government in both public and private aspects of life?

They are some other jurisprudence such as the customary law, however, the Sharia model cannot be actualized within a society that has other laws besides it.

4. Why is anyone advocating Sharia Law for Lagos State, does this person not find the existing legal system adequate to their needs?

Well, Nigeria as a whole is suffering from chronic illnesses- corruption, hypocrisy, fallacies by leaders, thuggery, lack of content, greed and wickedness, thievery and lewdness just to name a few. Sharia in its completeness is not just based on Sharia as in legislation, it has its roots in the political, economic, and social organization of the people who want to accept it.

The legal system or constitutional law within the Nigerian society has failed to live up to the masses supposed expectations due to:

1. Lack of respect for the rule of law by authorities in high positions

2. Delayed justice

3. Amendment based on a fallacy within the jurisprudence or favor to members of high position within the society

4. Corruption within the legal cabinet/chambers

5. What needs, personal or communal?

In the legal system of Sharia, members of the State own a responsible to protect one another, and enjoin fair treatment of all regardless of tribe, ethnicity, or color. Therefore, every family unit contributes directly to such a society, and the head or caliph in this respect cannot be seen as the "god of the men within the country" like most presidents but as a custodian who could be challenged but any citizen if he failed to perform his duties.

6. What are the alternatives under the existing system to correct that inadequacy?

Sharia.

7[b]. What steps have the grievant taken to address the issue and why would they feel that Sharia would resolve what the existing law failed to address?

Well, like the poster said, "he is going to tell the governor" that is a step forward. There quite a number of sincere Muslims who share this ideas and have purposefully abstained from engaging in a secular government that honor not God but men.
