Im rivers, my parents usually mention when someone was kidnapped, esp when they know the person, gettit now? abi you need me to spell it letter by letter for you, really isnt rocket science

oh wow, thank God she is safe, im surprised my parents didnt mention this,

debosky:

While I see your point tex, this type of thinking is VERY dangerous. It lowers the standard to the level that stealing 'only' 80% and 'doing something' with 20% is seen as some achievement.

That type of thinking will only bring about leaders who feel they do not need to commit the states' resources to proper use, but doing 'something' will be sufficient. Our standards have been too low and we must continue to DEMAND for complete accountability, even if it seems a long way off.

A step in the right direction is when ALL the money gets used for the purposes intended, but then if the money was poorly or inefficiently allocated, we can criticise on that ground. I refuse to accept anything beyond that as movement in the right direction.

LOL, Robin Hood mentality

and you think success is only based on sales??

LOL, considering that any franchise in Nigeria goes downhill(quality), in terms of sales it probably will, as for quality, I doubt it,

doing a great job?? seriously?? when the security problem (that he and his predecessor contributed immensely to) is fixed then I might be able to give him an ounce of credit, great job shmate job my ass,

@ Childchris, I guess U didnt see the part where I said everything cant go the way you want them to go,
you say if everyone is sane and corrupt, there would be no need for leaders, whats the point of the leaders we have when they are the corrupt ones? who is to 'lead' them? Of course the world is not a Utopia, talkless of Nigeria, everybody is sitting back and doing nothing, some even partake in the corruption, if U as an indiviual didnt partake, and the people around U, trust me, this would be less of an issue, people always put themselves first before the country 'all man for himself' , bleh, i might be back
I didnt even read ur entire post so I cnt adress all the issues, n iv forgotten alll i want to say, Ugh, blame it on ADD

Jite Okoloko

@ topic,
I didnt read tru the first post or any other posts, I stopped @ where U stated the problem lies within us and I completely agree with u, everybody cries for change but what exactly are we doing to bring about this change? we should all remember that before the leaders became who they are they wer once among us and are still among us, if every single person took it upon themselves to fight crruption who will be left on the corrupt side, unfortunately we live in a world where everything cant go the wya we planned, everyone cant be right we just have to weed out the bad ones one at a time, Nigeria should be waaay more developed with all our resources and wealth, but you see other African Countried progress faster than us, it really is sad *smh* ah well, life

Ok, so can some1 take pics of the 'new' GRA (half fenced houses)??and post em? pweety please

and was Rome built in one day??U think with our dead agricultural sector and all U think Nigeria would be left with much of an income if U cut Niger Delta out?? take away 85% of a countries income and there is not back Up?? am i the only one or the math seems more negative to me, All those other countries have other resources, Nigeria has agricultural resources they hav abandoned n I don't think would be going back to in the nearer future,  Now ur last statement should be redirected to U, seriously y am i even answering U

@ HELLYPELLY,
ITunfortunate that people like you have little or no imagination on how an economy woRks apart from crude oil. tell me what crude oil u have in iceland, swiss, india, malaysia, japan , china shall i continue. without crude oil we r far better off. THINK MY LADY.

and the majority ofNig.'s revenue will come from wer?ur ass??last i checked, shit wasnt cruid oil hunny!

ode remo:

poohbeer,

i don't c u offering any solution to the question. i repeat carve them out of Nigeria. remember the isle of boigny?

first and last name
he has mine as my first and last name too

lol! I need some of that too! g'night!

lol!! I thought I already said that wasnt my situation!!didnt happen to me!!

Ebony-Silk:

can U repeat please? because I can't seem to find the question, I'm rather slow tonight!

lol, my bad my bad, not intentional, errrrr, of course I wouldnt shag a guy I just met  a few hours before nau!!


and they wernt quite friends before they just happened to have some mutual friends, never met, when they they they wer  'feeling' each other n st@ted talking, had seen each other @ some events, talked over the phone, chat bleh bleh, their first one-on-one was , *ahem ahem* quite sexually intense if I must say

lol, funny siilar situation happened to my girl, n guess what, 4 months later they r still together, both have never been happier(@ least I know about my girl)

People r different sweets, one man's meat is another man's poison, people handle situations diff. even if they didnt get serious, I doubt she wd'a had much regrets besides the fact they have a couple of mutual friends, so it was more of a win-win less situation for her, 

Ebony-Silk:

wow, how cute.
So where is the dude now? what happened afta the first date?

I'd rather give my body to a guy I know, rather than a stranger. Dnt you think?

with every situation its different, ill be listing the worlds personalities here!
but ill give U one, just one example, take it I was celibate for say a year and a half maybe due to a LDR, now im single again, I meet this one nice person, wev seen each other coupl'a times, talk for hours, we finally go out on the 'first date' he comes to mines and gbam, it goes down!

Ebony-Silk:

Plz, do tell.

and I assume U just met! cos for all we know it could be  'first romantic date with ur male best friend'
neway depends on both parties involved, if the dude is a jerk and ignores her after that, as long as she is able to deal with it then sure, on the other hand, if it progresses heck, even better, U know U gotta have a bite from the apple before U buy the tree,
I know people that have kpanshed on the first date and have a wonderful relationship(romantic) now!

there r SOOOOOO many factors to consider

Ebony-Silk:

my definition of a first date:

Going out with a guy am attracted to, getting to know him
As much as men love to lie, on a first date, they'll try to tell as much info about themselves as they can, just to get under women's pant.
So, it's best to play the listener and let him talk.

first line in my post, still ??

Ebony-Silk:

we still hv an unanswered question here!!

Ebony-Silk:

Having sex with someone you met online on a first date is a big NO NO!

what is ur definition of 'first date'
2 scenarios
I cd'a known some1 for a year(seeing the person alot) but we hvnt gone on an official date and I decide to kpansh him on that faithful day he takes me to Le Bec Fin for that Romantic dinner,

Or I cd'a met some1 online n we met for the first time, had a dinner date n kpanshed after

OMG! I cant beliv U took this pic off my fb! INvasion of Privacy!
