EducationRe: What Is The English Word For This? by IbrahimB: 4:25pm On Nov 25, 2010

This is what pigeon english has caused to our knowledge of the english language
It's Pidgin, actually! grin
EducationRe: What Is The English Word For This? by IbrahimB: 4:00pm On Nov 25, 2010
The English language doesn't have an exact match for "chook". Two words come close though: Pierce and Prick.

@OP: In the context in which your daughter used the word, Prick would be most appropriate.

I suggest you change your username to something else. I assume you know perfectly well what the title "Rasulullah" means? undecided
SportsRe: Chelsea Have Ruined My Mikel – Siasia by IbrahimB: 7:45pm On Nov 11, 2010
I'm not sure a coach can kill a player's "attacking instincts". Vermalaen, Gallas and Ivanovic are defenders but that hasn't affected their attacking "instincts". I'm even thinking Mikel should be taken back to defence as he's even too static for a DM - no offence.

I really don't know what Siasia is complaining about? The boy himself is not complaining and seems to be too happy to continue his sideways, reverse and short passes. I have a feeling Siasia would try to convert Mikel back to an attacking midfielder, in the process wasting so much of his time and energy. Amodu tried it without success.

He should rather concentrate that energy in developing AMs like Stanley Okoro, Lukman Haruna, Rabiu Ibrahim and so on.

PoliticsRe: Drama As Man Attacks Obasanjo At Lagos Airport by IbrahimB: 1:59am On Nov 09, 2010
Are we saying if not for General Obasanjo there wouldn't be GSM in Nigeria?!

Frustrated people vent their anger on "leaders" everywhere. Bush had a shoe thrown at him, Berlusconi suffered 2 broken teeth, Blair had shoes and eggs thrown at him.

I'm curious to know if any of the blows on our ex-president met their target? grin

FoodRe: Name The Most Common Food In Nigeria by IbrahimB: 2:01am On Nov 04, 2010
Okay, Aloy, we give up! What's the answer to your "riddle"? Is it water, lol!

Even if rice is foreign, it's now a nigerian food. There was a time when the English would sooner kick a potato than eat it. So we can't just reject answers simply because they're not native to Nigeria. I think "Rice and Stew" is the most common method of preparing rice in the country.
FamilyRe: My Wife Is A Lousy Cook by IbrahimB: 2:25pm On Nov 03, 2010
chaircover:
Life and its problems **Sigh**

You know her cooking was wonky before you married her but you went ahead anyway without making any concrete plans on how to either deal with & eat the bad cooking or force her to learn how to cook before she came into your house

Now you expect a miracle
The problem is the young woman doesn't even see anything wrong in her cooking?! It's a complicated.

1moment:
i wonder for i long i can continue holding on.
It wouldn't be for long - trust me! That's why you should address the problem once and for all.

rokiatu:
Than shut up please and deal with it!
That's harsh and uncalled for!  angry
If he came to Nairaland before his marriage and complained that he has this wonderful fiance but his only problem is that her cooking is not perfect, I'm sure Nairalanders will say he's frivolous or maybe he has developed cold feet.

My advice is that you teach her. You can also take her to a good restaurant (as a treat) sometime and tell her how much you've enjoyed their cooking. You can increase her cooking budget, maybe it would send the message across. If she proves difficult, you can take the last resort and start bringing Mr Biggs and TFC home.

PS
I believe it won't reach the last resort. If she truly loves you, she'll certainly seek out her friends (and family), who could help her improve her cooking.

CareerRe: What Is The Best Thing U Like About your Workplace by IbrahimB: 9:37pm On Oct 29, 2010
davidylan:
likes:
1. I love the challenge of working in research and development. I can pretty much design my own experiments.
2. Never having to bother about grant money, free company credit card and i can order anything i want to make me work in comfort.
3. My own spacious office and lab + equipment free.
4. The flexibility to come and go as i please so long as the work is done.
5. Great pay and a fantastic opportunity to build a successful career.
6. All expense paid travel and support for scientific conferences.
7. Networking.
8. Collegiate atmosphere even with my own bosses . . . can never happen in naija. I call my bosses by their first names no shaking.

Dislikes:
1. NONE!
Sounds perfect. cheesy

Hmm, seems everyone has a great job and is doing very well. Why then, does Nairaland "sound" like it's filled with frustrated and bitter individuals? grin

Or maybe the frustration is not from the workplace!

PoliticsRe: Jonathan Is Weak -buhari ! by IbrahimB: 1:13am On Oct 27, 2010
Kobojunkie:
Actually, it can be argued that it takes a person with strong leadership traits to do what you are implying there that Buhari did -- allow his VP power to run the nation, while he was president. Remember what IBB did to his own deputy? Remember what became of Atiku when he spoke up against OBJ?

PoliticsRe: Court Sees No Problem With Woman Forced Into Marriage With Senator In North by IbrahimB: 12:26am On Oct 24, 2010
It's clear you can't marry a woman against her will.

But,

What's shocking is that a man would happily stay married to a woman whom he knows doesn't consent to the marriage. This is not marriage - it's slavery!

Ladies,

How do you feel when a guy call you shorty or lil momma? Do you accept that pet name?

Guys,

Do you like it when ladies call you macho names such as Hulk, Mandingo, Anaconda, and Cobra?
The highlighted names look like names an armed robber would fancy. I don't think any self-respecting man would find that funny.
PoliticsRe: Should The President Resign? by IbrahimB: 10:32pm On Oct 19, 2010
IbrahimB:
He should resign if the Henry Okah claims turn out to be true.
Ranks007:
All Gibberish!!!!!

Here's your answer

GBAMMM!!!
O yes! If the Henry Okah's claims turn out to be true the President should resign. It will be scandalous if it turns out that GEJ did reach out to Okah in order to blame a particular section of the country. It would be a shameful thing if that happened.

So what's your problem with that? undecided

MAYOWAAK:
The cat was let out of the bag on Monday when the girl got to the school with bruises all  over her body and when a classmate of hers asked her what happened, she opened up on what  transpired between her and her father.

P.M.NEWS further learnt that her classmate (Joke) on hearing this, ran to one of the  teachers who later told the principal of the school about it.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.  smiley
Joke just prevented the situation from getting worse. Some women have suffered this trauma for decades.   angry

I still believe that Goodluck will still win the election, not be cause he is a good candidate but because he has poor opposition.
Do you think GEJ will lose even if he had a strong opposition? I thought it is PDP for the next 50 years? grin. Anyway, I don't think a person like Buhari, if elections are credible, could be said to be poor opposition.

RomanceRe: How Love Almost Kiled Me by IbrahimB: 10:50pm On Oct 02, 2010
Question:

I.CHINONYE:
what re my ofence again i ask GOD
Answer:

I.CHINONYE:
GOD 4give me if i say i loved her more dan him
You loved excessively and thus paid the price. In your own words, your love for her even rivalled the love you had for God. You were on a dangerous road. You gave her everything she asked for, and when you could no longer deliver, she left you. Some people's wives have deserted them when they ran into a "dry patch". This woman wasn't your wife, so things should be easier to bear. I believe you've learnt your lesson and wouldn't make the same mistake again.
