Op and the gangs, its either you guys are too young to comprehend what good leadership is or you. Do not know the true meaning of 'worst' as a word. That's because if you do, you will know the the only past leaders that can be likened to GEJ in terms of achievements will be the likes of muritala mohammed, aguiyi ironsi and tafawa balewa. These guys were reformers, changing the statusquo ante. For starters are you saying that the likes of obasanjo, abacha, iBB etc did better than GEJ! Please let's cut the jokes and be more real!

Democratically elected presidents

Stop making unfounded accusations. If your claims are true, why not sue the hospital for the carelessness?

This is a very serious allegation which I hope for legal reasons isn't true. Why bother to work in a hospital then? Besides, it's not like they are the ones going to be transfused with the blood.
I suggest you drop an anonymous note off with the authorities before something more sinister happens

Nvidia or Radeon graphics? And the VRAM?

It's Mangu, not Jos

I'm with you on this one Jackie

With the endless monopoly of Multichoice Africa for over a decade and a half, and the needless perennial increase in their subscription rates due to unavailability of sustainable competition, there has always been a need for a readily affordable legal alternative to their services.
HiTV came but weren't able to sustain themselves due to their huge debt profile. Daarsat's popularity was short-lived, as marketing was poor.
Now as at the first quarter of the year 2015, we have what we would call not necessarily competition, but quality alternatives to the thievery we suffer from DSTV.
There first came Startimes, then Consat, ACTV, and Montage cable TV. They all pack pretty attractive channels at affordable rates, mostly in high definition. None of them costs more than 15,000 naira for installation and non has a subscription costing more than 4000 naira. Exciting enough is that they come with HD PVR decoders that gives you the pause, rewind and play option, with crystal clear audio and video quality at 15k max (note that DSTV HD PVR decoder costs 78k).
Pls anyone using any of the above listed cable TV providers should Kindly give us an insight to their service quality and channel program fun rating.
I am still trying to figure out which of them to go for though.
Pls note that this is not an advertisement for any company.

There's absolutely nothing abnormal about a young person having some part of the hair lacking in pigment.

Aregbeshola, Ajimobi, Jonah Jang, Gabriel Suswam, Rochas Okorocha, TA Orji and other chronic debtors, shay una dey hear o?

I have seen way worse than this

Only happens where things work

The English name is "Devil beans" but was it planted by the devil? If you did farm back in the days, then if u re harvesting cassava or yam and mistakenly touch this.... Mehn! Just ready to enjoy ur cry urself coz "sorry" will make it worst.

The actual English name is the 'stinging nettle'

That's what happens when anyone who enrolls to be in the force is taken. They normally should have psychological evaluations to see if they have a healthy mental status to cope with the rigors of the job. Police, military, doctors, teachers

Yesterday was my daughter's birthday, she just clocked 6. We didn't really plan any party, we just wanted to have a session of prayers to be followed by just eating and giving her siblings some biscuits with sweets, until hubby surprised us with a small cake and a pack of fruit juice made for kids. So, we didn't have choice than to involve the neighbour's kids to celebrate with us. So, after dressing up for her and was time for her to come out, i just noticed that she came out late and when she was coming out, she came with a bag of clothes. She called me aside, and said........"mummy, please help me to give out these clothes to those who doesn't have as much as i do, that is how i want to celebrate my birthday."

i was dumbfounded, i was humbled, infact, i don't know how to describe what she did. I know she has done beautifully well, but never expected such from such a very young girl of 6.


I'm proud of you, my angel!

You are lucky. God gave you an exceptional kid! Be grateful to God for that

It depends on how soon before departure date you purchase your ticket, even if it's th3 cheapest airline. The closer th3 interval, the more expensive it is.
Dana air is about the cheapest though

This my TAN brethren situation don dey get out of hand o. Contrary to what I initially thought, they might might need to see a shrink and possibly even undergo electroconvulsive therapy

Jon Salinger: Can they please change the rules of boxing where you actually have to punch to win a fight?

Declan W: Frustrating fight. Mayweather seems to have found the flaw in the Matrix that allows him to win no matter what!

Dick-D I taya for you o. Is this supposed to be funny or something?

tit:
i was backing mayweather till i saw a posting where
floyd would buy 10 watches if he wins
and manny would feed streetkids with his purse.

Floyd is arrogant, he knows it, and he doesn't care about people's opinion of him. Manny is a very humble personality

Manny Pacquiao is just putting his gloves on. He's taking his time.

Remember, Pacquiao is a southpaw. Why is that significant? It means he will lead with his right hand. That's his jabbing hand and the left becomes the power shot. Mayweather will be the reverse.

This is key as shots come from angles a fighter like Mayweather will not be overly used to. It also means their feet are closer together on the canvas because of their opposing stance. Throw in the fact their heads are also closer together than when an orthodox fighter like Mayweather faces another orthodox and the potential for head clashes increases.

A look at the average number of punches these men throw in a round tells us much about their style. Money takes his time, picks his shots and throws an average 39.5 a round. Pac Man chucks them in for fun - 65.5. That's more than one every three seconds.

What does this tell us? Pacquiao cannot be wasteful despite his work rate and must be accurate. Mayweather always is accurate and will likely wait for his chances to counter.

If boxers were football teams who would they be?

Olympic medal-winning boxer Anthony Ogogo told BBC Sport Floyd Mayweather's style is similar to a Chelsea team.

"His style is similar to a Mourinho team because he sets himself up not to lose," said Ogogo. "Winning is his number-one priority - if he looks good doing it then great but first and foremost he wants to win.

"In footballing terms, Alex Ferguson's Manchester United team of the late 1990s are a direct opposite to Mourinho's Chelsea.

"Fergie's teams won with attacking flair, all gung ho and exciting to watch. If I could liken any fighter to that United side then it would have to be Manny Pacquiao."

Ralphlauren:
hopefully he will soon get his slot.

And he will get his but whipped! Typical British boy!
Besides, Floyd has just one match left on his contract

On to the big one...
Mayweather v Pacquiao

Ladies and gents, get ready. The final undercard fight is done and dusted, next up, Floyd Mayweather v Manny Pacquiao...

I'm fast. I'm so, so fast...
Mayweather v Pacquiao

Do you fancy yourself as a bit of a Pac Man? Do you have the blistering hand speed?

The 36-year-old was recently filmed in training landing 126 punches on a bag in 30 seconds. That's over four punches per second raining down on the target. Give it a try this Sunday morning. How many can you throw in half a minute?

The most bought fights in boxing history...
Mayweather v Pacquiao


Like the opening of a blockbuster film which wants to go one better than those listed in the current record books, this fight has a mark it ns to hit to go down in history too.

If we look at the biggest HBO and Showtime productions of the last 27 years, the figure of 2.4m as a target becomes clear.

2.4m pay-per-view buys: Oscar De La Hoya vs. Floyd Mayweather, 5 May 2007.

2.2m pay-per-view buys: Floyd Mayweather vs. Saul Alvarez, 14 September 2013.

1.99m pay-per-view buys: Evander Holyfield vs. Mike Tyson II, 28 June 1997.

1.97m pay-per-view buys: Lennox Lewis vs. Mike Tyson, 8 June 2002.

Former world champion Sugar Ray Leonard and actors Ben Affleck and Bradley Cooper are the latest glitzy names in attendance at the MGM's Grand Garden.

This has to be one of the most elite crowds ever assembled at a sporting event.

This fight is expected to break the world record for pay-per-view buys which currently stands at the 2.4m purchases when Floyd Mayweather met Oscar De La Hoya in 2007. Let's say for example is makes four million sales, well multiply that figure by the $100 price to televise the fight in American and there's $400m dollars earned already.

It's hardly top secret that Amir Khan wants a shot at Floyd Mayweather. The titles, the pay day, the glitz and glamour, what fighter wouldn't?

The Bolton fighter is ringside tonight and while boxing records are broken before his very eyes, he is instead shaping up to meet American Chris Algieri - a man Pacquiao knocked down six times last time out - in four weeks.

"Pacquiao is hungrier for the fight as he knows what this fight holds for him," Khan told BBC Sport. "I think it will be a 50-50 fight in the first few rounds but then Mayweather may edge forward with his experience and confidence and take the next six rounds to win the fight.

"I want to fight Mayweather. The reason why is Manny Pacquiao and I are friends, we used to train together. Also, Mayweather is an unbeaten fighter and I want to give him his first loss."

Take a ticket and wait your turn Amir. Your number has not been called yet...

Be warned, Manny Pacquiao can shock. On 6 December 2008 he stepped up two weight divisions to take on the decorated American Oscar de la Hoya at the MGM Grand and physically dismantled his opponent, punishing blow by punishing blow.

"Never in my wildest dreams did I think Manny Pacquiao would be the fighter he was that night," said De La Hoya, who retired after round eight. "He never stopped throwing punches. That win catapulted him to new heights."

"Money isn't everything, money is the only thing," Floyd Mayweather once said. He lives up to the motto, earning $105m (£69m) last year to become the planet's best-paid sportsman.

His estimated wealth is around $295m (£193m). That's more than the annual output of two Pacific Islands - Tuvalu ($38m, pictured) and Kiribati ($172m) - combined.
