are you and dayokanu related?

Blackteeth:
@fstrangest. Why not drop your number straight away like most guys do here rather than beating about and upon the bush with your congo talk.

Inked_Nerd:

lol, how I shine my isn't important and no I don't allow it to become dill and overgrown with weed. Depending on the person, me shining my congo would be something I might explore.

You can hang if you don't like my statement. If you can't decode the humour in that response then its really your prerogative.

Very sad development indeed. From frypan to fire. Trusting the evil empire like we were born yesterday. Of course, if Nigeria security forces can work with the Israeli Mossad, we shouldn't be too shocked they are willing to sell us out to be recolonised, this time by the most heartless child-ra.p.ing assassinating bunch of invaders out there. They will do worse to us than they did to the Iraqis. Abu Ghraib will sound like a picnic when they're done with us. I am so disgusted!

Once consolation, they probably planned the whole bombing in the first place. So, it shouldn't take them long to announce the makeup of the bomb. An arrest is another matter.

Please sir could you mention these achievements.

What did you have in mind when you created this thread? I thought you wanted to surprise us with a Yuruba-man-in-space news.
Then I hit you with an Igbo bombshell. lol
And you began your Ife, moremi, Yoruba blah! blah!! blah!!!

Lagbaja:

Can you stick to one thing?

It is either the Ife teachers are good (in which case all the students, and not just one of them, should be good)
Or
They dash marks to non-Yerubas (in which case Ife is a fake, certificate dashing place)
Or

Stella is the best (in which case an Igbo student beat Yoruba students in their own domain)

You had wrote:

Is this school not affiliated with OAU?

omongbatic:
For the first time, I must admit your comic potential. We should in fact crown you the clown-in-chief of Nairaland.
Anyways, so Uni-Ife (and affiliated institutions) dey dash marks? No wonder this man here http://www.punchng.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art200902223264739 got his dashed degrees there.

omongbatic:
Talk about clutching at straw. If it is about the teachers, why did Yoruba class mates of Stella not make it then like her? CLEARLY, it is about Stella and not her teachers (teachers who also have Yorubas as their students). Loser! Loser!! Loser!!!

I strongly disagree with the former statement. But I do feel that the rights of the people there should not be trampled over. Equity and justice for all, ideally.

The AU is a pretty pitiful and useless body. Being the head of that doesn't mean very much, imo.

eku_bear:
Being the top dog in a federation is more intriguing to me, personally. You get to use your resources to not only strengthen your region, but also expand economically into other regions. Think Germany/France leading the EU, for example.

eku_bear:
Kuwait? No. Their leaders would of course steal from them again. Honestly, the amount of money they get in oil derivations should be enough to make those states flourish. Wealth is no good if it is grossly mismanaged. As much as I sympathize with the people of the Delta, they'd only be replacing one oppressor (the Nigerian FG) with another (their own governors and leaders.)

A relative of mine owns some property in PH. He wanted to fence it. Within 24 hour of him making this decision, he received a phone call from some community elders down there, claiming he needed to settle them to prevent area boys from causing wahala. So this relative (a guy who also sympathizes with their plight) said that they should call everyone from the community so he could pay them all at once. I think they wanted some insane amount at first (like 700K naira   ), he negotiated it down to like 95K. So he wrote them out a check. Before he got home, they'd already cashed it!
Of course, he then later finds out that the leader of the group stole the money and didn't share it among his people

If we left what would happen to your broke azzes?

Anyway, we are still waiting to see if our demands can be met within the existing structure

eku_bear:
True federalism is probably strictly better than secession, yes.

Eh, dunno about others, but I'm not going to beg. I'd much rather have access to international credit to build infrastructure than the NDs oil, if I had to choose between the two. The latter leads to a better society and economy anyway.
But of course, having both is better  

eku_bear:
No joke. If I were them, I'd secede in a second. From what Beaf says, it should be something they can do today.

$160 mil/day divided by 20 or 30 million is a lot better than the same amount divided by 150+ million  

They'd be better off if they secede. But this is one of those things that is easier said than done. . .

Beaf:
Where exactly will others get the money to negate the SS? Especially if oil piplines are finished off, while the supply is diverted?
The SS can spend billions at short notice, and it can do that everyday. The first week or so would be the most painful for the SS if war breaks out, but after that, it would be a crushing defeat for anyone with a relatively primitive army that foolishly attacks us. If you follow the news carefully, you will also find that militants in the SS are quite conversant and comfortable with high tech warfare, regularly employing GPS, UAV's etc. This is aside from the fact that we have the ready cash to employ the baddest mecenaries complete with their ammo from places like SA, Namibia and Angola; call that an angry standing army at a weeks notice.

. . .This is aside from the fact that the US would cripple any unfortunate that touches their beloved SS (it took less than 24 hours for the FBI to land in Abuja and for the US President and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano to rush to GEJ's help).
