FamilyRe: Husband Beats Wife For "Buhari Is Working" Comment (Photos) by Godwin616: 12:29pm On Sep 06, 2016
I doubt if the story is true in the first place. How can you beat up your wife just because of topic of public interest. It is not a private matter so I see no reason why it should degenerate to physical assault. Although. In reality the situation is tough and almost everybody is feeling the heat including the housewives. More pressure is definately on the bread winners. I see frustration setting in and that could be responsible for the guy's action.
Christianity EtcRe: I Have To Deny God So I Can Pass..should I? by Godwin616: 11:15pm On Sep 05, 2016
How does this academic exercise differs from the movie roles. Does it make the movie real? To me the debate is as fictitious as movies and fiction novels we all read. When you are a student you learn many things, it is part of the rudiment of learning. We have great philosophers who are believers in God and some who don't. It is a personal decision. Academics aside. Afterall many of us did one or two philosophy courses at 100 and 200 level and that does not change anything about what we believe.

Why is he just giving this kind of suggestion in far away US and not at home where the advise is needed most. All this kind our leaders self.Mtcheeew.

It will take more than one loss to diminish someone like tinubu. Akeredolu was tinubu candidate before in the last election.do not be surprised to see akeredolu pledge allegiance to tinubu in the days ahead.
I concur. Very soon you will see Akeredolu paying a visit to bourdillon. No be politicians? Abeg forget them. Nothing to lose sleep over. Whoever eventually emerges as Governor, what we demand from them is good governance and accountability.
CelebritiesRe: Jidenna Starts Scholarship Scheme In ESUT To Honour Late Dad by Godwin616: 6:22pm On Sep 04, 2016
Weedcrusher:
The problem I see with Nigerians or should I say Nairalanders for precision, is that most of you have a mentality of it's either our people is better or others are worse. It's either you are with us or totally against us.

And truth be told, I have observed this amongst the Yoruba and Igbo tribes, but that doesn't exclude other tribes in the country. People express illusion of grandeur when there is something good being talked about their tribe, and immediately transition into a defensive demon when something not so good is being said about their tribe.

We get it the Yoruba and Igbo people of Nairaland, your tribe is the best. Can we now move on to something productive and unifying for the interest of building our great nation?

Now to the Topic at hand, It is a great gesture from this young man and his sister to come back to their root and start a scholarship scheme in honour of their late father. This action should be encourage and should be an inspiration for other Nigerians in diaspora to come back home and do something productive

Instead of you that Yoruba boy coming on this thread and see no good in what the guy has done because he is from Igboland, just bury your face in shame for being so myopic. And instead of you that you Igbo boy bragging about how great your tribe because of what your brother has done, just shut your mouth and use your brain in thinking of how you can help your society when you become successful

QED: Let there be peace among us all. Instead of engaging in tribal war and hate, let's unite and move this country in the right direction
You nailed bros. Sometimes am just baffled with quality of comments I see her, so shallow and myopic. You will hardly get constructive and objective inputs from so-called contributors. I think the moderator has a great role to play here in order to sanitize this forum. The level of ethnic bigotry on display is alarming.

PoliticsRe: Bigger War Than Boko Haram Looms, Says Ndume by Godwin616: 11:29pm On Sep 03, 2016

Instead of Ndume calling on the FG, he should call the northern money bags:

Dangote
Rabiu
Danjuma
Ali Modu Al-Sheriff
Senators, Rep from the region.
They shuld declare a state of emergency in that region. Then follow up by aggressive fund raising involving eminent personalities and corporte bodies. Am sure the trio of Dangote,Danjuma,Atiku alone can comfortably take care of the IDP for the next 12 months.

This man again? He should have just kept mute over this than to expose himself to more public ridicule than what is already on ground before. I guess the smart NFF boss smartly sidelined him because of his obvious cluelessness. A typical square peg in a round hole.

Christianity EtcRe: Pastor William Kumuyi Visits Wike (Photos) by Godwin616: 6:56pm On Sep 03, 2016
Is it only me that notice this trend? The other day Pastor Kumuyi visited Gov Fayose and now Wike. I think the man of God is trying to calm the tension in these 2 states and make the gladiators to embrace peace. I think its a good gesture. More grease to your elbows. Now we have begining to see deeper life coming to the fore politically, a dramatic twist from the past. This is a welcome development.
CrimeRe: Man Killed While Pursuing Danfo Driver Who Bashed His Car. Graphic Pics by Godwin616: 4:53pm On Sep 03, 2016
So sad . Dragging with danfo drivers of all people. Its like fighting with a mad man. Even if you had caught up with him what's the assurance that he will fix your car for you. The chances are very low, so why taking such a risk. Even LASTMA cannot dare them when on motion. An average danfo driver is "insane". Sorry to say that but that's what they are.

Decryptor:
Why was his name hidden? Anyway, look at his head very well! The shape alone tells where he is from...at least, it's not FLAT!
The name is not hidden. The story has been around for sometimes. The guy and his wife are from south east. While they run the church in mafoluku oshodi. I have been following the story since last week. The fact is that crime has no geographical boundary. It can be anybody from any part of the country. We know of many astrocities that go on in some white garment churches as well. We just need to be very careful with all these end time churches that are springing up here and there.

It is a 50-50 chance typical of a local derby. Not a game with so many goals.I think the outcone will be greatly determined by the tactical approach of the coaches.

Yes you are right. Its not suitable for southern part of the country where we have many months of rainy season. But it is ideal for the north. If they could put more effort and get necessary regulatory body's approval, I think they can go commercial.If India can produce it while not Nigeria.

BusinessHire Purchase Business by Godwin616(op): 5:53pm On Aug 27, 2016
I have a vehicle that I gave out as an hire purchase to a guy. The tenure suppose to be 18 months as mutually agreed by both parties. I found that he was only consistent at the early stage and since then it has been one story after the other. Now the 18months is about to elapse in 2months time and he has just paid up to 55% of the vehicle. What can I do at the expiration of the tenure. Am I legally permited to seize my vehicle and he forfeits all he has paid or renegotiate the terms for each additional month that my vehicle is with him. I need advise from experienced Nairalanders.

u guys know wat to do now. move to ur state conduct refrendum n sponsor a bill to senate.first get popular majority votes n let see. all what u are doing is school boy protest. nobody will listen to u
Interestingly you have an igbo man in Ekweremadu as a senate leader yet you people cannot use that opportunity to present your case by following a due process. No one will take this agitation serious because there is no eminent igbo leader speaking in support of this agitation. Where are the likes of Emeka Anyanoku,pius anyim, adolphus nwabara etc, even the traditional rulers are not talking. The agitation appears to be a youth movement stuff. If indeed Ndi igbos really need the seccession, I think the approach should change.

Car TalkRe: Advantages And Disadvantages Of Buying Your Car From Cotonou by Godwin616: 4:27pm On Aug 20, 2016
project8:
can someone explain to me disadvantage of reducing car mileage? does high mileage affect perfomance of s car? and is there any maximum mileage for a car to influence d car performance?
Yes, the higher the mileage the weaker the engine. Is like having an options to buy a car that has just covered 500km and another that has covered 5000km. Effectively, your cost of maintenance will be higher on the latter. That means you need to further negotiate the cost down or else you will be cheated. The dealers reduce the mileage to deceive prospective buyers in order to give the impression that the car is still relatively new.

Obviously something foundamental kas gone wrong.when your home is attacked you need to fight back. First, get something doing immediately to sustain your self and kid financially. Start a new line of bizness if the frozen food is no longer feasible. For now let the man alone, don't bug him with issue about women again, let him satisfy his curiosity though I know is not easy but for the purpose of keeping yur marriage. Then the bed wetting thing, you still has a role to play. Try and discuss this only with your spiritual father for prrayers. It may require you to visit MFM for a situation like this o. Because it is the marriage that is under attack and you have a big role to play to help salvage the situation. As for that man he is totally caged and he cannot help himself.

Quite unfortunate. For someone staying in a civilised environment like US and still putting up this kind of show? Yet your siblings are here and you did not consider the likely spiral effect of your inaction on your kinsmen. And you know quite well how volatile our country is especially the north. Even if you have american passport remember that your siblings are here and you need to be meticulous with your utterences. This is not good enough.

I understand you people did wedding in January. Have you taken in now? If not then I suggest you guys see the medics. There could be more to it than just taking sexual enhancing pills. But if this premature shoot does not affect conceiving then it can easily be taken care of through combination of herbal and pills. Its really no big deal. Most men do have similar experiencs one time or the other but we all do take care of ourselves from time to time either through watching of what we consume or simply by taking herbs to detoxicate the system. But it is important the guy takes it serious and begin to do something about it. I want to assure you that it is curable.

"Grow the Naira they said", but no.
We have more than capable Nigerians who are more than able to coach the National Team (who will be cheaper, encourage local content empowerment etc) but our "all knowing" government wants for foreign made. Now, he has brought his fellow foreigners and at what cost to who? Meaning that he may not even have plans to have a Nigerian Assistant.
With that said, it also means that there's no succession plan in view because if and when he goes, we start running around again, looking for replacement.

Na wa for wa huh huh
Infact I laugh in swahili. Is it the same NFF that is owing siasia five months salary that will be able to pay foreign coach? Let's see how it goes. We are watching.

You are right but this did not happen without a cost. Not until after being in opposition for the past 16 years of PDP's rule.Recall how OBJ witheld the lagos state allocation for months and yet Lagos survived. How I wish many other states can be so independent from the Abuja monthly allawi. No doubt there is an advantage in being an alignment with central government.
