You borrowed trillions of naira for infrastructure and was only able to deliver 10% while the rest was looted by your cronies, plunging us into the highest figure of external depth in history. Now we're poverty capital of the world. Are there expecting gratitude from us? No it's a shame

APC failed!!!
Yeah APC failed by a mile to say the least, but is PDP any better? For a party who invested trillions in the power sector only to give us undiluted darkness, despite the fact that the price of crude oil tripled what we have now? They have no moral ground to seek power ever again, hence, they should crawl into any available hole abeg.

"Ayu should promise to resign after elections"? Very hilarious, someone who promised and failed to resign in the event a Northerner wins the primaries...if he faltered wan so much is at stake, what's the guarantee he would do the right thing after the presidential election?

Northerners see Southerners as foooolssss that can be played around like ball. I don't blame them, I blame the Southern leaders who have over the years sold the region's birthright for plates of yam porridge.

I was expecting Arsenal to draw Liverpool, but they eventually defeated them, very good of Arsenal.

But, inspite of all this good form, even though that club can be their nemesis, i still can't understand how they lost to United by that margin. If anything it should have been a goalless draw or a loss just by a one goal margin.

And this same United lost to City in the most awkward of fashions; just when some of us thought United was finally back, makes it look somewhat weird and strange.

Meanwhile, Arsenal fans continue to believe, and the dream will come true. Forget what your rivals are saying grin

None of us ever gave it a thought Leicester would lift it that year, but they did.

If Leicester did it then , you can too.

Once again, Congrats. cool cool
The only difference is that, while Arsenal have an in-form Man City team to contend with, Leicester didn't, all the big teams had a bad season then.

Have you put into consideration how battered someone who work 6 days a week can be? Imagine she works in a rough city like Lagos too, with it's crazy traffic. And you want her to use her only rest day to dey waka upandan? Imagine what her Sunday looks like; church, laundry, cooking and sleeping.

Guy, I want to assume your job affords you enough time to move around, hence, you should be considerate and be the one who goes visiting more.
Work out a strategy that works for both of you, but in this case, she gets the longer end of the stick. Otherwise, let her be and look for a less busy woman to date.

Right now, she doesn't care about all that.....her fashion sense will change later.
Spokesperson, I hail o grin

Sports is some kinda showbiz, she needs to take note of what she wears outside tracks. Although everyone wants to look unique, but she's the world champ, our champ, all eyes will continue focus on her for as long as she reigns on the tracks. She needs to grab all that her new status offers, and while praying she reigns for a very long time, athletes have short career span.

Sometimes I wonder the criteria they use in picking these beauty pageants. I have met so many intelligent and beautiful Kenyans whom this lady can't even compete against. Well, I guess she was the best of all those who registered for it.

Plus what is the purpose of these beauty pageantry sef, when actually they are full of average beautiful ladies? undecided

This one wants to commit suicide and also take people along with him.

Blades spinning everywhere without safety measures to protect himself, plus such tests are carried out in open fields with viewers and camera standing at a safe distance.

Kudos for trying, but it is doing it all wrong regarding safety measures.
Travel › Re: If You Travel By Air A Lot, Beware Of Over Friendly Chatty Seat Neighbours. by humberjade:
Hmm, thank God for your life!

I recall when I travelled to Israel, at the airport on my way out, while waiting for our luggage to be checked in, two different airport Police officers came at two separate times to ask us if our hand bags and boxes were packed by us. Immediately after the 2nd ask, my mind flashed back to how I prolly dodged a bullet that could have ruined my life.

Two weeks earlier, I met this lady on this study abroad Whatsapp group, and somehow, we started private chatting. She knew I was travelling briefly to Israel, hence, she seeked l help her collect a gift her sister had promised her about 3 months earlier. Without thinking twice, I accepted. Then I asked her what the gift was, she said she doesn't know yet. It sounded odd to me, but I didn't think too much of it. Same question and answer were exchanged within my first 11 days in Israel.

Then three days before my departure from Israel, she called me and told me her sister has finally revealed the gift; two pairs of shoes. I was like finally! Then she said her sister would prefer that I meet her somewhere to collect it, and would pay for my cab too. I still agreed.

That night, I started putting the pieces together; every detail. In my mind, "how is it possible that my biological sister would want to send me something and she wouldn't know what she's sending for months until 3 days before she finally sends it? Still, my kind and naive heart didn't want to disappoint this lady.

On the day I was suppose to depart, my mum sent her usual morning prayer messages (her own daily way of checking up on all her children, and all she needs is an "Amen" from you. She still does it till date by the way. grin May God continue to preserve her for us). After exchanging few chats, she called to wish me a safe journey and prayed more.

Still, with my coconut head, I took my bath and headed out to collect the shoes. But while I was in the cab, my mum called again and said to me in Yoruba, "My father (as she fondly calls her male children), please do not leave your luggage with anyone or help anyone watch over theirs at the airport". Immediately,
it was as if a veil was lifted off my face. But out of curiosity, I still proceeded to the meeting point . I saw a parked car at a blind spot (obviously to erase any video evidence of the exchange), with an Arab man and a black lady looking all conscious of their environment. I just told the driver to take me back to my hotel.

After I told her I won't be able to go through with it, her last words before blocking me were, "F you mugu"! grin

Being at the war front is different from this...matter of life and death....what he was doing there is almost the same as being on a parade ground. And as far as I am concerned, military medics are positioned strategically for medical emergencies at such events. Fainting is a regular occurrence in such gatherings, medics just weren't paying attention.

If truly he said this, then Nigerians are in for a bumpy ride if he wins.
A man who swore with the blood of his family, on a promise he knew he couldn't keep, who are Nigerians for him to stick to his promises for? Words really mean nothing to this one.

Sadly, all the major contestants are chronic thieves and liars, it is left for Nigerians to vote the one with at least best verifiable records to make an impact. Words are cheap in Nigeria, that's why politicians take the electorates for granted when making promises they can't honour.

Atleast, the child will be well taken care of and safe.
Milking may continue though. Lol!
Not in every case o, anybody can be a father or a mother, but being a mum or a dad is a different ball game.
Exactly, but some people are just greedingly stoopid, a means of getting extra cash that you know can be taken away from you at anytime if you mess up, yet you still want to abuse it. Some people are just so short sighted. Someone who's yet to settle already pays one of your children's tuition, imagine what she would do once everything gels for her.

Chidiesta:
Good day nairalanders,

I have lived in Germany for 3 years now i have a 1 years old daughter and I also have a 8 years old daughter who lives with my elder sister in nigeria.

She is married with three kids , I provide everything for them and I pay one of her child school fee but my sister is never satisfied with the money she keep demanding me for more money.

She knows it very well that I am not stable yet in this country , life is hard just because she is taking care of my daughter and she want me to carry the responsibility of her three children.

I make sure that I send a big parcel for all of them once a year as I am typing the parcel is on the way but she want me to pay school fees for all her children too and I can't afford to pay for all four.

I am paying her son school fees is 87k per term and my daughter own is 67k . On the 2nd I sent her 300k for school fees and foodstuffs she called on monday demanding me for 154k for her son and my daughter school fee I asked her what about the money I sent on the 2nd she said she bought foodstuffs for 120k and use the 180k for her two oldest children school fee and she want me to send the 154k for the youngest 2 , I was angry with her and I cut the call.

I am angry my own sister is draining me financially and I have a lot of bills to pay too and a small child to cater for.

I have spoken to my friend she is happy to take care of my daughter for me until I am stable enough to bring her to Germany. I like the idea because my sister is not helping me to progress.

I hope my daughter living with my friend will be a good idea.

I haven't told my sister anything yet because we are not in good term but I want to hear from you first please let me know if I should allow my friend to take care of her or I should leave her with my elder sister.

DBestDoc:
Are you male or female?

If you’re a man and the mother of that lil girl is alive and well, please return that child to her mum. She needs her mum at this point of her life

If you’re female like I suspect, your best option may be to take the boarding school route.

Ask that friend of yours to help you scout for a good boarding school and enroll your kid there. Pay something extra for additional upkeep and have your sis or friend pick her up during holidays. This way, you’re sure your child is ok and at the same time, avenues for milking will be duly blocked.

You don’t need to fight with your sis, just peacefully remove your child from her custody at the moment because anyone that could divert money meant for a child’s schooling to personal use is not a trustworthy person. Quietly disengage from the previous arrangement.

All the best!
Although the OP is a woman, but a baby mama might do worse
