I still wait to see the relevance of the topic to the post. By the way, whatever happened to avoiding premarital sex in the first place? We reap what we sow, whether male or female. Peace.
Hello house! Please which Nigerian bank would you recommend for opening a dollar account? What are the pros and cons? What has your experience been like? I will appreciate comments and suggestions from those who have been there and done that. Peace.
SmartyPants: It may shock you to know that Israel has always had ties to Aso Rock. They have always been involved in training our DSS and other matters which might be covert.
I once stayed in a guest house somewhere in Lagos where Isreali military who trained Abacha's elite guards stayed while in Nigeria. Remember the days of Isreali soldiers and their Uzzi guns?
travelwaka: In Summary, the point of no return is a place where slaves were shipped off to an unknown destination during the slave trade era. It is an Island in Badagry called the Gberefu Island. It is surrounded by the lagoon on one and the Atlantic on the other side. You can only access this island via a boat.
Thousands of Slaves were shipped off from this Island. It is one of the most popular slave centres in the world. I present to you the original slave route and the point of no return. It hosts a well known as the attenuation well, anyone that drinks from the water will lose their memory. The slaves were forced to drink the water before heading to the point of no return. This is probably one of the reasons why it was difficult for the slaves to fight the slave masters or escape during the trip.
Gbẹrẹfu is not entirely an island. You can access Gbẹrẹfu by road, through Aivoji to Yovoyan, and then Gbẹrẹfu. You turn at the Customs Checkpoint along Seme Road close to Suntan Beach.
It begins with you, bro. I wonder why no one is telling you that. There are intelligent and amiable people EVERYWHERE. I mean everywhere! It just depends on how you view yourself and others. Open your mind and see the beauty of the human race, irrespective of where/who/what you are. Change your mindset, and you will gradually begin to see the uniqueness and beauty in every human. As a creative, that's where your muse may even lie! Even if you change location a gazillion times, and you don't change your opinion of people around you in general...well you know the rest. Nobody is better than anybody, we just have better opportunities or more favorable circumstances in life
The likes of Olamide, Wizkid, Dagrin, etc got inspiration from the hood, the common people, not from the Einsteins, Newtons, or Avogadros!
Upton: Hmmn. IT guys, shey there's a way to check when a domain name was registered/activated or something? At least let's know if this website has been active over the years or if they just put it up yesterday.
I can do that. Have done it severally while investigating online scams. Maybe I'll try this when less busy
All these just reminds me of Soka, Ibadan. A very close relative went there to see things for himselves when the bubble bursted. He saw children's footwear, notebooks, uniforms, school bags, etc. He cried and cried. Evil men are everywhere doing the Devil's bidding. This is definitely an organized crime!
Nice idea! Let's start the scanning with Nigerian academics who plagiarize other people's work in the name of writing textbooks and course materials. Then we move to those who plagiarize their graduate students' works as their own, claiming authorship in papers and journals.
I foresee another big wahala for Airtel. Them fit change name and ownership soon, again. The fact is that many so-called wealthy men in Nigeria are not-so-wealthy and not so scrupulous. This same insider trading, window dressing and poor corporate governance destroyed the defunct Oceanic Bank. Why are we Nigerians like this?
This reminds me of the scorpions at Kurmin Musa village, Kachia, Kaduna State in 2007/2008! Men, come and see larger than life and blacker than black scorpions! The top 3 creatures in the place were scorpions, snakes and toads! Had to move around with flashlights anytime as from 7 p.m (it gets dark quickly in the North).
One fateful evening as I was stepping into my room, something just told me: O boy, put on your torchlight o! Omo, see very big and black scorpion waiting to strike im papa! I did justice to it with effervescent alacrity! Scorpion poison bad o! The stain no commot for the floor till I left the village.
On another occasion, I was taking new corps members to the District Head's house (I was the local CLO) for proper introductions. It was around 7 p.m or so. As we walked from the quarters located near the school towards the chief's house, we were discussing life, youth service, etc. It was dark. Something just told me to stop. I told the guys to stop for a moment. They were puzzled. I switched on the flashlight and pointed it at the ground in front of us. Brethren, see an elephantagious scorpion of gargantuan dimensions! We were maniacally bewildered! My guys were surprised how I knew something like that was there. By the next day, one of them redeployed back to his state! NYSC be taking guys to places! E be things.
So sad! UCT has been sending me emails regularly as I once enquired about PhD studies there. A very nice and organized school. I hope it is rebuilt to same or better standard.
eedriyz: I prefer my apartment to house only humans. Any other living thing inside is considered as an obstructor and will be therefore condemned to die. For cockroaches, there is something they call "green leaf"; it's a white powder in a small green sachet. That's how I got rid of them here.
Is it a brand name or a generic name? How does it work? I hate roaches!
The beautiful thing about this your beautiful post about the ugliness of being beautiful is that you registered an account and created a post which beautifully landed on front page, all within 24 hours! Now, that's beautifully beautiful!
I love your diction though. Next, work on your phrasing and paragraphing.
And keep your inner beauty. It will give you strength of character and help you deal with the vicissitudes that come with outer beauty. Peace.
gfon: funny monicker you got...where una dey get the inspiration from?
Look at the moniker again. It's totally in order. What are you thinking? Hope you know Virginia is a proper name? Abi na vagina you think sey dey there?

Nicklaus619: Nigeria ladies are so shallow-minded. That was how I was innocently picking and dropping one lady in my department in the office with my car, the very day I bought my car and start driving it to work, we actually stay one estate apart and I thought it wise since she ain't mobile, let me be helping her, of which my fiance knew and was was cool with, fast forward to after 3 months of constant picking her in the morning and dropping her after work at her gate,
Aunty approached me one day and was like Nick what do you really want from me because u can't be doing all of this and not wanting something in return?
I was so pissed and disgusted by her foolish comment, but i did not answer her though, I just smile at her, dropped her at her gate as usual and drove home, immediately I got home, aunty has called me like 4 miss call, I eventually retuned her call and she started apologizing for speaking out of tone, I told her not to worry that everywhere good, but that was the last I drove her in my car, up till date she still apologizing, but I no longer give a fvck, most Nigeria ladies thinks every guy always want to toast them. well I shocked her, because my girlfriend is 100 times more endowed and beautiful than her, what could I be wanting from her biko
Please buy 4 chilled bottles of Budweiser for yourself on my behalf! I'll pay anytime we meet Sense will not finish you. The societal values and norms have gone down the drain. Any man trying to be nice to a lady now is usually imputed with ulterior motives. But please keep doing your best to be good. You may accept the apologies of your colleague and continue helping her. You can tactfully and kindly explain to her that not all men are the same. That you are different. She must have learned her lesson anyway.
