SportsRe: F1 Racing: Hamilton Wellwishers Only by IBEXY(m): 9:41pm On Nov 02, 2008
There's an argument if Glock slowed down. I don't believe it. Every driver pitted to change to wet tires except Glock. If you watch the replay you will see he drove too wide and Hamilton passed him  (the same way Hamilton allowed him to pass when he mistakingly drove too wide). I think he deserves to win considering all he has done over the season. I just hope the FIA will not find something this time to deduct points from him. Congrats -

- Youngest ever F1 champion
- First ever black man F1 champion

Now we wait for Obama to wrap up the show

SportsRe: Greatest Boxer Of All Time: Tyson, Ali Or Marciano? by IBEXY(m): 9:25am On Oct 22, 2008
Tyson was an animal - that is what made him special. Ali played to the media and they loved his pretty boy face and his loud mouth. He was special but Tyson was something else. I think Tyson is better. Check him out here. His greatest knockouts. Note most of the people were almost twice his size.

Music/RadioRe: Yanni by IBEXY(m): 1:00pm On Oct 07, 2008
Why is every music demonic? I cant understand why people condemn anything they dont know how to appreaciate. What will you say about rap music that glorifies guns and violence? Does that make rap music demonic? NO!. Because a demon possesed artiste decides to spit dangerous rhymes does not leave us with the senseless option of seeing rap as from the devil. Anyway, back to Yanni. I think he is a musical genius. You need to watch his live concerts to understand. I will leave you with this beautiful number from him.

Foreign AffairsRe: Usa Economy Is Falling by IBEXY(m): 12:14pm On Oct 04, 2008
The credit crunch (as its been named) is already affecting Nigerians. The value of dollar and pounds has fallen. That means less foreign currency influx to Nigeria. That means a reduction in financial value in terms of stock, asset and liquid cash for poor naija people all over the world.

@IBEXY and SHOLEYB

Please teach us how to give what we DO NOT have.
You can start by doing the ones you have. Scan the list, there are lots you can do without really "having". Lets leave the ones that involve too much money. For example:

Training young children in your area for free - this is a humanitarian act that requires virtually nothing from you. Simple advice and guidance.
Donating your used clothing, books, shoes etc to local children - who does not know one or two people around who would appreciate even a used shirt. Be kind to people.
Donating raw food stuff (or cooked) to families you know are suffering - this can be even guguru and epa. No matter how small.
Teaching people to draft a CV and how to conduct themselves at an interview for free. - you will never know it but thousands of people have skills but cannot sell it because they can't draft a CV or write a proposal.
Visit homes where we know that there are disabled or sick people just to help them clean, wash clothes etc. Even just visiting and chatting with them may be all they need. - my brother is this one hard to do?
Donating beds, duvets, story books, body creams( u know that cream you bought that did not suit you and u want to throw away), to shelters for drug addicts. prostitutes, orphaned children etc - not too hard to do.
Volunteering to go to the market for a vulnerable adult that lives next to you - the list goes on and on
Raising money in your office for people who need surgery but cannot afford it. - charity begins at home (or was it in the office)


and I will add:

Try and change your way of life if you are involved in any of these: armed robbery, yahoo yahoo, bribery, corruption - the list continues.

Now you know how to be a Nigerian. Now you know the first steps towards transforming our nation.

FamilyRe: Why Are Nigerian Men Killing Their American Nurses Wives. by IBEXY(m): 8:51am On Oct 03, 2008
bintab:
If you have any opinion or insight about this topic,please reply with solutions ,advise and ways we can prevent the killings of our sisters in the land they sojourn for greener pastures.I will surely appreciates it  as it will help in  the discussion of the problem at the Nigerian nurses associations new york, chicago and various organizations of Nigerian associations in USA.I write because no child deserves to see her or his mother or father in handcuffs or mourn the death of one parent by the hands of of the other.I write because i am aware that several women are at  breaking points and a lots of men are at loosing it.We are in our 20s,30s,40, and 50s,highly educated,work laboriously to meet the needs of our families and  yet very much afraid to speak of the unjust treatment of our spouses.In the past 3 years over a dozen of our Nigerian women who were nurses were brutally murdered by their spouses,some in the presence of their beloved children.some cases have been ruled on others are pending in various courts across the nation. I begin to wonder what are the justification to murder another if we truly profess love.
I quite agree, the rate of divorce amongst Nigerian couples (nurses included) is high. Most men treat their women like a "property" forgetting that yankee is not naija where you expect a woman to obey your every whim with robotic dedication. This new found yankee "independence" takes most men unaware and the not-so-strong can react like a cornered animal. Suddenly, the woman becomes the main bread winner of the house (like in most cases). The man becomes a baby sitter and cook. A stupid woman at this point begins to resent the man. The man becomes suspicious of the late hours - the genesis of the problem. All these are no justification for domestic violence or worse still murder but a lot many people crack under these type of conditions.
PoliticsRe: Happy 48th Birthday To My Country, Nigeria by IBEXY(m): 7:36am On Oct 03, 2008
Nigerians have an incredible capacity for taking bullshit especially from the government. These people know we take whatever they dish out (dictatorship, denial of rights, corruption, bullying, etc). We prefer to swallow and hope and pray for better days - its gone on for too long people. It sound and looks like a joke now when people say they are waiting for better days. And, hey stop asking God to change Nigeria, he did that long ago by giving you and I the brain to discern good from bad. Don't tell me you need God to come down to tell you bribery and corruption, yahoo yahoo, armed robbery etc are bad. The sycophants among us drive me mad. Even when we talk and complain simply as humans do, they want to show you how advanced they have become - acting as if they know something we all don't or trying to show how patriotic they are. What does it take to make a Nigerian say: "Hey, I've had enough and want to make a change in my life". Because, believe it or not, we are our own problem. If I change and you change, the nation will change. One of the best answers on this thread (apart from my own of course  grin) is this one from Sholeyb. I think If each of us does half of what he says, Nigeria will change and our rulers will change too. Because, honestly, who are these politicians and rulers? Its you and me.

Quote from Sholeyb
May I suggest that we all start to do something no matter how small. I appreciate the way people feel about the whole situation, but let's be honest no matter how much and how often we complain it cannot change the situation.

Things to consider

Training young children in your area for free
Donating your used clothing, books, shoes etc to local children
Donating raw food stuff to families you know are suffering
Investing money in local traders biz, e.g pepper seller, meat seller etc. I can hear people saying NO WAY, who can I trust. We have to start somewhere
Visiting hospitals and donating baby clothes, paying off a new mother's bill.
Digging a well in our village
Opening a library in our old school
Teaching people to draft a CV and how to conduct themselves at an interview for free.
paying for a child's education that you may not really know but their plight has come to your knowledge
Visit homes where we know that there are disbaled or sick people there just to help them clean, wash clothes etc. Even just visiting and cahtting to them may be all they need.
Donating beds, duvets, story books, body creams( u know that cream you bought that did not suit you and u want to throw away), to shelters for drug addicts. prostitutes, orphaned childern etc
Volunteering to go to the market for a vulnerable adult that lives next to you
Raising money in your office for people who need surgery but cannot afford it.

This christmas is a good one, buy a very nice and useful hamper for that woman that stands in front of your office selling boli or soemone else, it would make their christmas.

So many other things I cannot think of right now.

Imagine a scenario where  a driver hits someone because the brakes are bad, if we knew about it before hand and could afford to sort it out and did nothing we are as gulty as the driver. I am not saying encouraging people to be irresponsible, but people we know are genuinley trying but can't make ends meet.

How many of us volunteer our time to our churches, mosques etc.Think about it
I hope this makes sense

Forgetting his private life, he is the greatest musician/performer the world has seen. Scores of artistes have testified being inspired by him. His album: Thriller became the best-selling album of all time; the album was the first in history to spawn seven top-ten singles. Duplicate that if you can. The album has sold over 100million copies worldwide and is still selling. He is the most popular human being on Earth. Infact at one time, ranked second only to the brand Coca Cola. Lets face it, he knows how to make good music.

Hope and patience are nice virtues but not when you are being abused or someone keeps taking advantage of you. People could not believe Nigerians could make an offer to buy Newcastle United to the tune of money they quoted. They kept asking what we are doing abroad if our people have that kind of money. No offense meant. There is really nothing to celebrate. One more wretched feather added to the dung heap.
PoliticsRe: Happy 48th Birthday To My Country, Nigeria by IBEXY(m): 7:36am On Oct 02, 2008
A fool at 40 is a fool forever. Is there cause to celebrate at 48? Hell no!!  angry  There is nothing to show for it. Nigeria  is like an irresponsible father. He gave birth to a 100 million children. He is extremely rich but has decided to squander and spend his money alone - letting his children die of hunger. Why would I celebrate such a daddy? No way  angry

- Its time we changed our ways. We have suffered enough.
- Its time to do away with the bribery and corruption.
- Its time to let go the get rich quick motives and stop scam (419).
- Its time to orientate and teach our children that education, learning a craft or living honestly is better than forging a career in yahoo yahoo.

Each day when I go out on the streets where I currently reside, I cry for my country because I know we have more than what it takes to be like them. I mean these people rely on us for what drives their economy - fuel. I look at UAE and cry when I see what oil money can do. These people literally built a city out of the ocean. Why cant we be what God has destined us to be?

Most of our politicians and rulers schooled abroad and know what they should do but they have decided to turn a blind eye on the stark poverty ravaging us. Our boys have turned to yahoo yahoo in desperation. Our image is that of a deceiver. The first reaction of other nationals to us is:

"Hey watch out, he's Nigerian. Lock away all the cheque books. Keep an eye on him.".

Believe it or not, thats out greatest achievement in 48 years - the yahoo yahoo image. A nation too smart for its own good.

bawomolo:
dude, u do realize loans have to be acquired to build stadiums right. there are operating costs associated with running a club
They still made £36.7 million pre-tax profit in the year ended May 2008. Football is lucrative especially if you have a manager interested only in discovering young talents, buy them cheaply and sell years later for cut throat prices. The Arsenal management is happy with Arsene Wenger wether he gets a cup or not. He definitely understand corporate business. http://www.arsenal.com/news/news-archive/plus

The latest news about Newcastle is that a rival South African consortium bid £350m for the club. The Nigerian buyers have a strong contender in their hands.

Trust me you don't know half of what i know regarding black/african history so i'll ignore that statement.
Why e dey pain you so much. Did you skip evolution in high school. Prove it to me that we are not monkeys and i will shut up. From what you have written, i can see that you are obviously a small boy. What makes you think i am a "boy". How do you know i am not a grandfather. The internet is anonymous my dear brethren. Stop making unnecessary assumptions.  Is it possible to have a crime free society? Infact, i don't need to argue with you further, move abeg.[/quote]@A-town
Since you addressed me, I will respond to you. What got me angry with you is that you stated categorically that all Africans are monkeys. What of the Europeans? They must be gorillas or Ourang-outangs in your opinion. The Asians nko? Baboons maybe.

Even if I read about evolution in school, does that make it true? Are you blind to the differences between a monkey and a human? In the last 1000 years, how many monkeys have sudddenly shed their skin to become human or change into some higher beings. Each specie continued to begat itself. Even man has not suddenly grown 4 legs. Or is it not time for next phase of evolutionary changes to happen?

Are you angry at being called a boy? Now I know your problem is self esteem. You lack it. No wonder you have demoted yourself to a monkey. The internet might be anonymous but your level of thinking and what you write here says it all. Beware what you say in public places like nairaland.

I am a Nigerian so don't think i am being racist or anything. We've always been a corrupt bunch and it is evident in all facets of our culture.
Remember that we sold our own people to the "invaders" during slavery for money and power (they started it by forcing our people onto ships but they later deviced and easier means by paying our so called chiefs and rulers for slaves)This form of deceit to our own people still exist because children are being sold as modern day slaves. I bet most of you have these under age girls in your homes today. We are all Monkeys[/quote]From your name tag I see you have spent too much time in the slums of America. You have been indoctrinated so much that you now despise and disrespect your very own father by calling him a monkey. I bet he eats a lot of bananas. I quite agree with you. Some species of humans might actually be monkeys dressed in trouser suits. This includes the likes of you who misplace their anger and are ashamed of who they are. Because a few greedy and heartless people sold their brethren into slavery or that our government constantly engages in corrupt practices does not make us the worst class of humans on the face of the earth. I bet you think white people are angels and gods. I can offer you a bleaching cream so you can become white if you want but I doubt it will change your gene from being a monkey. My God, I always thought some of those monkeys escaped from the jungle into the city. I never thought one of them would appear on nairaland. No African is a monkey. No African has committed any offence greater than what the white man has done. Read your history books boy. don't be deceived. Take a trip to some of the poor black communities right there in America where you live. There is a strong reason why crime prevails in such places. I'll leave it to your lazy arse monkey brain to figure it out.

I see a lot of people yapping here about why these people did not invest in naija. Yapping about how unemployment and other social ills wreck the country and these guys want to invest in England. These are all stupid remarks. For how long shall Nigerians wait on the corrupt system to better itself? For how long shall we continue to pour money into the frustration that our country has become. For how long shall we invest and frustrated by unworkable infrastructures like power supply etc. I personally have played that 'patriotic game' of investing in my country in the past and came out crying. I will not blame these guys (assuming the story is true) for investing abroad. At least they are sure of a secure investment protected by a relatively transparent system. Go guys. When we stop deceiving ourselves and realise we got potential to be like China, Korea, India (and even Ghana) then I will be the first to invest in naija.
