Greatest in terms of what, style, flair, crowd pulling, opponents beaten etc

Simply put, there is no right answer, each boxer had their own unique modus operandi and following, and each is a legend in their own right and there is no way of knowing for sure who would have emerged outright winner had they fought in the same era. All we can do is stand in awe of their accomplishments.

I am enjoying your responses, keep them coming.
Both genders are capable of malfeasance, but Nigerian men moreso, what we have now will continue forever, we need change, only women leaders can be catalyst for that change.  I am not interested in academics, but practicality, women tend to be dogged when it comes to achieving goals/targets, men have the tendency to be easily swayed.

I don't believe God is miraculously going to come to our rescue in Nigeria. I feel we should take the bull by the horns and fight for our country. Here is my proposal; We should promulgate a law that allows only women contests our presidential and gubernatirial elections for the next 24 years.

Before anyone jumbs on me, lets look at the facts, men have failed Nigeria woefully, every president and governors (males) we've had to date have been corrupt and done outrightly and absolutely nothing to move our development forward. Then take the few women we have had in key positions, like, Dora,  Okonjo-Iweala, Ezekwesili, etc. These women have been progressives, we have seen dramatic improvements in our fortunes as a result of their impact.

I think, this is so because women have that natural maternal instinct that makes them want to protect, preserve and nurture, rather than the destroy and carefree attitude our men seem to possess.

Our current system has'nt worked and will never work, we need to come up with something this radical and their is no point looking at the way its done in other countries, there does not have to have been precedence.

I also believe we need to practise meritocracy, rather than this idea of allocating positions to people based on what part of the country they are from.

I welcome your debate.

@poster

If he has ikebe or whatever, if you dont like, move swiftly on. To suggest there is a particular build or structure he has to conform to is being judgemental.

Humans need to move on and accept each other for who we are. There are tougher challenges in our world.

These days, GENERALIZATION, is the scientists conclusion to all issues concerning mankind. This is like playing the lottery or reading your horoscope. Might apply, might not.

To suggest that one answer fits all is myopic.

@ poster

Read over your post and correct errors so it is easy to digest.

There always has to be an odd one out (you in this case). When you do marry, then it will be another thing like - how come i'm always surrounded with married people with their kids, keep that brain working.

May be true, Info from here;

http://www.left-handersday.com/intelligence.html


Some researchers claim that left handers are more intelligent and eloquent than right-handed counterparts. In tests conducted by Dr. Alan Searleman from St Lawrence University in New York, he found that left-handers can be considerably more intellectually gifted. There were more left-handed people with IQs over 140 than right-handed people - which is the "genius" bracket. This is perhaps why there are more "lefties" in creative professions - such as music, art and writing - and more left-handed astronauts and leaders than would be expected.

This implies that the automobile trade will end up in the hands of oligarchy of local businessmen, who probably will be cronies of the Governor and his associates.

This can not be any further from free market principles. It will fail woefully.

Not in any particular order;

Low prices, good customer service, discount vouchers for repeat custom, professional hair stylist, offer additional beauty related services, good aesthetics.

It beats buying a landed house. Just drive and live whereever you want, I'm digging it.

Thanks folks, even with the diversions, i have thoroughly enjoyed your comments.

By carefully investing in appropriate financial vehicles over 30 years should provide enough wealth.

@Others

I am enjoying your comments.

How much money do you want to spend?

You cannot stop the distraction in church because it is a moving target. Today it is the girl in short skirt, tomorrow it is the screaming unruly child, etc. Ignore and try to stay on point.

@omoluku,

You have to do a little bit more than that to generate interest for your venture.

4 posts does not hack it at all.

Start with building a good reputation.

Get a few cars advertised and sold on the forum.

You are probably unaware that TRUST was massacred here few days ago, there is a lot of scepticism  about.

Good Luck

Peter boxed for the money, hoping he will get a lucky punch, unfortunately Vit was too focused for him.

If like me you grew up with the fear of the unknown perpetuated by stories and narrations of ghosts, witches and wizards, then you must want to know if these entities truly exist and if they do what is their purpose or goal.
If we do indeed have witches, why do they want to kill or do good, what is their reward for doing that. Why would ghosts want to hang around to scare people, can they not just go about their own business and not bother anyone? Or is it that they have a trophy they would be entitled to based on the number of scares they perform.

let's have your true stories, this will really enlighten moi.

I have a friend who thanks and praises God everyday for the period he was employed at NNPC, whilst there, he was able to buy himself a house and other luxuries one can imagine. To be candid, the assets he acquired would probably have taken a diligent and honest employee a lifetime to achieve. My problem is why does he think that was God's doing, why does he believe it was God's intention for him to be in a position where he can corruptly enrich himself. This I find very common amongst Nigerians. We thank God for what the proceeds of corruption and crime have gotten us, what is it that makes us think it's Gods plan? or Could it be ?

It bothers me that some Nigerians who claim to worship the supreme God (as Christians or Muslims) also regularly and surreptitiously use the services of fetish priests. As far as I know and from talking to a couple of religious scholars, my understanding is that worshiping the supreme God as either a Christian or a Muslim should automatically imply that one has forsaken any other deity or avatar. So why then patronise fetish priests? Is it that we do not have believe or  enough faith in the supreme God or do we think that we get quicker results this way or are the fetish priests only doers of our evil intentions.

Lets have your view, i'm curious.

Nigeria is deeply divided when it comes to religion, both main religions preach peace and love, yet we are a nation where every religion wants to outdo or outsmart the other. We keep killing each other (religios riots). We have Imams and Pastors living off the largesse of their congregants (no beef, congregants are not complaining), while some members live in absolute penury. Homes and families are destroyed as a result of supposed revelations in houses of worship. We dislike and generalize based on someones religion. When politicians and other stewards are caught red handed, they quickly take solace in their religion/ God. You hear comments like "God will vindicate me"

What is it with religion or 2 religions, is it a blessing or a curse for Nigeria?  Would like your thoughts.

Wrong section mate.

A slap on the wrist approach will not work and has never worked in Nija. Severe punishment please.

Spread Government agencies across the state.
Give incentives to companies willing to relocate to the outskirts
Introduce subsidized mass transit
Construct rail/underground network
Introduce congestion charge in island

There is absoluteluy nothing wrong in buying additional insurance on your partner as long as the partner is fully aware.
If however this is done secretly, then it raises a lot of questions.

@ Angel heart

You are bang out of order suggesting these things as per dating a Nigerian man even though you did say it could apply to others. You dont come to a Nigerian owned Forum and stoke the fire and expect people to be reticent. Humans are humans and should not be boxed into Nigerians/Canadians etc.

Obviously you seem to have had a bad experience with a human and I agree you can formulate rules for yourself, but please keep them to yourself. You would have better served your purpose by headlining your thread as "MY TIP FOR DATING A MAN".  There are foreigners who have had fantastic experiences with Nigerian men and likewise there are those like yourself who seem to have had a torrid time. But lets stop generalizing. I also feel that we as humans should learn to tolerate each others opinion, this was a young womans opinion, what posters should have done is repudiate her statements rather than making it personal.

Iyeme! weytin concine viperman for tory, see me see trouble o!

Question: How Can We Combat Fraud In Nigeria?
Answer: Do nothing, you just cannot, forget it, just go to bed, dont even bother, you must be having a smoke.

Nigeria and Corruption are joined at the hips, What Nigerian Leaders have joined together, let no man put asunder.

Gamechange is shaking his head and falling asleep, please wake me up when pigs start flying.

My brother, which car you say you wan sell again?

We all have issues in life, to each his own, why come and put sand sand in auto section gari now.

If you want assistance for your business, why dont you formulate a business proposal and go to Dragons den or worst still approach bank and show them your cash flow and projection analysis, they might be able to assist. You obviously have not been studying the threads here lately, "TRUST" is currently been masacred and it will be hard for any to heed to your call.

Sorry, just candid opinion.
