One question;

Why does Nigeria always perform well in age grade competitions but then falter in senior international competitions where all countries are allowed to bring in players of any age?

A lot Nigerians have no clue how Nigerian states
got their names . I was guilty of such, until I came across this piece.

5. BAUCHI:
There are three versions of how Bauchi got its name .
One version says ‘ Bauchi’ is Hausa word meaning the

came to be known simply as Bauchi. According to the

named for Baushe , a famous hunter who settled there
before the 19th century while the third states that
‘bauchi ’ is Hausa word for slavery
since it was a center for slave raiders.
6. BAYELSA:
Bayelsa was formed as a result of the clamour from
the three LGAs in old River ( Brass LGA known as
BALGA, Yenegoa LGA known as YELGA and Sagbama
LGA – SALGA ) . The name came about from the

She took it in good fate, meaning they were having irreconcilable differences. They perhaps needed a good reason to end it, and you conveniently helped out.
Do not beat up yourself, you have a clear conscience.

However I am more concerned as to why he would have pictures of you guys kissing and making out on his phone.

Na lefty
No wonder

God help us.

And in another thread someone was saying it's a violation of the kids fundamental human right to take them to church...

It was during for.play that he was given Apple so that he would last long before he cums

Slimberry1:
Abeq.. ama remain Classy, Sexy and Beautiful but yet Decent till I die ... Am gonn be a Hot Mom!! .. .. Being married is not an excuse for being Shabbily dressed.. .

Can we get married already?

ojun50:
classy outside sexy inside my bed room

Badt guy....

Bro, truth of the matter is she feels you are not man enough to have the whole of her.

She probably feels when the going gets tough, you would fidget and vanish into thin air. She practically had to force a commitment from you, common.......

Bro every babe wants a confident and decisive man, and that's why she is keeping her options open.

Sorry if I sounded harsh, nothing personal.

Classy.........

Big difference between the 2.
My wife would always remain classy and not necessarily sexy.

BrainnewsNg:
Lol. What did you expect? "before and after make-up"?

The topic suffices already, no need for all that preamble.

All this grammar just for before and after make-up pic?
