Ravenwolf: With thoughts patterns such as this infesting the minds of many here and yonder, is it exactly so hard to know why when when we ponder it this nation hasnt moved much progressively and may never do such??



Ethnicism remains the greatest block to Nigeria's growth, truth be told.

Capt. JH Miller:
Assalam..
I am a young muslim brother, growing up I never gave much taught to marriage as I knew I wouldn't marry till I was much older, as I grew older I started to reason not to get married until I meet a luvly muslimah. She is no doubt what I have dreamt of in a wife and more, I was able to convince myself we were meant for each other and we will spend our lives together and forever both in this dunya and akhira. One of my best moment was when we agreed to choose each other when we meet in الجنة , insha Alla.h..
Recently, it started to fall apart and we fought so often. I tried my best, put my ego and pride aside just so it will work but it just is not. I am a very simple person and believe so much In اللَّه سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى will, but in this case it has been so difficult for me to just let be what will be, I have just tried to fight and fight to make it work. Maybe because I believe if I should lose her I'll probably never look to get married and will never get married.
Now I have started to go back to my previous ideology, I know marriage is half of your deen and it completes it, but is it forbidden not to marry?

My plan is to adopt children إنْ شَآ ءَ اللّهُ

جَزَاكُمُ اللّهُ
NB__ its not that I don't believe .اللَّه سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى will replace her with someone better.

Nashville: But why should this topic make front page? Haven't we had enough tribal war on Nairaland? Not sure what the moderators want with this on FP!

Alfa Seltzer: Hahahahahaha.

They can recommend killing fowl and goat. Yeye people.

Let them come jail am now. Na only talk dem sabi talk?
Make them come try am.
I dare them.
Infact, I double dare them all.
Touch our Stella and see.

Stuupid goats!

Afam4eva: The educational system in Nigeria has indeed taken a nose dive with the kind of illiterates that it's churning out daily. The OP couldn't use his brain to know the difference between The First Indigenous University in Nigeria and the First University in Nigeria. No wonder people keep failing JAMB and WAEC year in year out.

iykemoney90: Thunder go fire ur mouth...racist

phreakabit: Amen!

I love igbo weddings! cheesy. I hope they last forever. grin. Congrats Peter and Tayo.

plaindealer: This is how people fail WAEC. What's the first University in Nigeria got to do with some school in Nsuka? UI is the first and oldest University in Nigeria and better ranked than the school in Nsuka.

odua boy: You mean like this beautiful hairy ibo woman

davidylan: My best movie theater experience began with my first visit to an AMC dine-in theater in New Jersey. The only problem? I needed to drive 2-hrs to and fro to savor the experience. Rather than continue to burn the extra gas, i happened on a far better idea... why not turn the empty basement (packed full of useless boxes anyway and starting to gather dust and bugs) into my own movie theater? The benefits - i get to watch what i want, when i want, with who i want... i get to sit in my own rocking recliner chair. It costs $0 in gas costs, i can pause, rewind, increase the volume, play on my computer or even cook as i watch. The only problem - home theater equipment (at least for the newbie - like i was) can cost you a fortune.

In the subsequent posts, i intend to chronicle my journey from complete newbie to a fairly informed home theater enthusiast. enjoy.

abu12: You people should just quantize his people to one particular area in your land(west), just the way they are restricted to some certain area all over in the north like sabongari. So that you will lay your hands on them anytime they f**k up. You allow them to spread anyhow in your land that is why they are claiming lagos state with u and will insult u.

naijafresh: Comment invited

Are they any major disasters or achievements from this current set of leaders?

or just a continuation of the old brigade of brigands and thieves..

Gbawe: Fashola has not told anyone he is interested in being President so there is no need for this thread that only allows the same ethnocentric and biased characters to cast aspersion on the man's character and real worth. Anyone who wants to judge Nigerian leaders these day would get a better picture inspecting the opinion of non-Nigerians which is likely to be more balanced and less tainted with ethnic prejudice. While the usual characters go through their predictable and tedious objection to Fashola, based on nothing but prejudice against his ethnic origin, the fact is that Fashola is one of the few Governors numerous Nations and prominent world organisations would queue to employ after his tenure as Governor because of his globally acknowledged proven efficacy as a leader only certain hateful Nigerians deny.

Nigeria, the typification of prejudice that validates the saying that "a Prophet is not respected in his own Country", does not deserve a leader like Fashola. Fashola has his pick of international opportunities 99.9% of Nigerian leaders would never be considered for. To that end Fashola will be more than OK post 2015 even as the same set of myopic haters blind themselves to the obvious. The man's good name has gone beyond the hate of Nigeria.

trillville: Can't you see that what you have written down is corruption? I see extra budgetary spending and contract splitting. Can't you comprehend what I am writing?


The worst part of this oduah scandal is that the source of money used in this jamboree is directly tax payers money and not oil money. Sincere 9gerian, if you have boarded a plane this year, you should know that you paid a tax. That money from your pocket is what she used to buy the vehicles.

What's the different between oduah and a night time robber? she has directly stolen from every Nigerian that flies. It is ridiculous that we are discussing whether she should be fired or not rather than discussing how much time she should spend in jail. This shows how low Nigeria has fallen and why every person from Ted Cruz to Ann coulter is insulting us. You should be highly ashamed of yourself for not standing for justice. Shame on you.

naijaborn001: Ode! Mumu things

Sincere 9gerian: The FACTS that have been established so far:

1. There was no evidence that the minister forced NCAA to buy armoured vehicles.

2. The armoured vehicles and other vehicles were bought and registered in the name of NCAA. None in the name of the ministry of aviation or Oduah

3. The armoured vehicles was dully budgeted for by the NASS.

4. Nothing to show that NCAA is cash strapped because it bought vehicles under a lease arrangement with First Bank.

5. Only about N52 million has been paid for all the vehicles bought by NCAA. The NASS approved about N200 million for vehicle purchase by NCAA in 2013

In the face of these FACTS, why are Tinubu vultures still making NOISE on this matter?

akereconfi: I wish to draw your attention to what is happening on this Forum, I guess I don't need to introduce myself.
I don't know whether you allow the TRIBAL TOPICS to make front page so that it will attract the TRIBAL BIGOTS and it will generate traffic for you, I don't know if you instruct your Mods to allow some Tribal comments to stay, most nlanders always find a way to bring in tribal wars top a Topic that has nothing to do with any tribe, and derail the thread. Most People come here to educate themselves on things happening in Nigeria but end up seeing show of shame. Far away from Nigeria, guys wanna know what's happening back home. It's either I see RELIGIOUS comments or TRIBAL comments. I know I haven't being clean also.
SEUN, In as much as I respect you, but take a look at the pic I attached to this post.

You have to do something about this. Thanks

“When she came on board as the minister, she inherited a lot of baggage in terms of the concession and lease agreements in the sector, which were clearly not in the interest of the government and people of Nigeria.

“And so, she took bold steps and some of these agreements were reviewed and some were terminated, and these moves disturbed some entrenched interests in the sector, and within this period, she began to receive some imminent threats to her life; therefore, the need for the vehicles.

“It should be noted that these vehicles are not personal vehicles and were not procured in the name of the honourable minister; they are utility vehicles and are for the office of the minister, and if she leaves the office, she will not be taking the vehicles along with her.” Joe Obi, Ms. BMW's "Special assistant media"
