ChimeChimezie:
Peter Okoye also shared an adorable picture of his wife and son

I don't know why,but i just find this woman so adorable!!! I admire her each time i see her pic

....searching google for a pretty woman! Lol!

Ok

This op,next time think about your write up properly before you write.Don just come here and paste anything.

Are you aware that Google through its Nigeria office released an explanation as to why they pulled down the blog?

Do you think that Linda can influence google to lie about that?

Google in an international company and not an indigenous one,therefore it cannot get involved in such fake arrangements.

Please think before you write next time abeg!

.

It's obvious that google removed our LIB without carrying out the necessary verifications. They appeared to be at the beck and call of the so called Mr Ayedee. They shut LIB when he wanted and restored when he was pleased.

As far as I am concerned Google misfired! Do you think Linda can and should sue Google for this negligence that almost cost her her life's work?

Guys,first thank God Linda's blog is back...I am so excited!

I was analyzing the whole series of events and I put down some valuable lessons that could apply to anyone and they as follows(pls feel free to add yours):

1. To succeed in life you need a destiny helper. (Not necessarily one you choose yourself,but one God sends ur way)

2. If God ever uses you to help someone,never try to repay yourself. God will reward you and guess what? He sure rewards!

3. Its good to be patient and not jump into conclusions too quickly. Never assume anything, except if it's obvious!

You can add yours pls! Meanwhile make I visit Linda blog first.

*Modified*
Another serious lesson: if you like a woman,pls let her know,point blank! Do not beat around the bush! Ayee, oya talk true,do you like and want to date Linda? Lols

That's rubbish and does not make sense.

They shouldn't have been making such disdaining moves at this time when she is at her weakest point. Why should they be making jest of her? This is a minus for OLX and they have at this point lost me as a client!

That is very sketchy and needs elucidation. Did they verify from Linda? What were the images or whatever it was that was copied? This explanation is not good enough to SHUT DOWN Linda's blog pls.

Google didn't make sense on this....they acted like they have been looking for some opportunity to shoot her down.

The report simply says nothing about Linda being guilty. That someone reported isn't enough to shut down another's blog. We need further verifications pls and if they shut her down wrongly, Linda should sue google's ass and make some cool cash.

Hello Nairalanders, Let's show some love....Linda Ikeji must be going through a trying moment now...Let's use this page to cheer her up and show her that we care!!! I heard her new website is lindaikeji.mobi

Drop a line here to show support for our own naija sister: Linda Ikeji.

Ok here is mine: Linda dear,though I don't know u personally but I want to use this medium to encourage you to keep up the good work you are doing! You are an encouragement to millions of Nigerians,you have shown that one can make it without a regular job. God bless you and cause you to bounce back stronger and better dear! I love you!

I have never been a fan of the wrong and negative energy a lot of people use to discredit the president even without knowing a single thing about ruling a country like Nigeria.

Mr President met this country in a state of quagmire (so to say). Since then, i have been carefully observing his diligent calculated efforts to build Nigeria.Its unfortunate however, how some un-informed individuals go about criticizing his Excellency without opening their eyes to see what is really happening.

I was "gisting" with a man today about how Nigerians heavily resisted and protested the Fuel Subsidy removal only for a few individuals to turn back later and start "begging" the president to go ahead after they understood the implications.

Well,believe it nor not,Jonathan is the best president Nigeria could have at this time.

An emotional,easy to anger,quick to react president; would have torn this nation into pieces.

Imagine an infiltrated army,police,government etc... It dosen't take a day to handle such situations.

The man (Goodluck) deserves our prayers and that is what we ought to do ( and of cause constructive criticism,its allowed.)

May God bless Nigeria!!!

I was shocked to see some of these poor African countries with billionaire presidents!

Ok oo

zoeee:
What's the typo error here

Maybe you are still snoozing! "Splashes cold water on her"

Oya wake up and look again!

Have u seen it now?

If this is true then its good news for the world!! Read the article below.




Has North Korea’s Kim Jong Un Been Toppled?
Out of sight for a month, young Kim is supposedly ill. But rumors are swirling he’s been deposed—and North Korea’s second most powerful man now feels confident enough to travel South.

Hwang Pyong So must be feeling pretty good about himself right now. At the latest Supreme People’s Assembly meeting, he was made vice chairman of the National Defense Commission. This was after his promotion to director of the General Political Bureau of the Korean People’s Army, making him the top political officer in the military. In a country where there is supposed to be no No. 2 official, he is called the second-most powerful figure.

Now he has crossed the border into South Korea on a one-day, short-notice trip, triggering hopes of reconciliation between the arch-rival republics—and heightening speculation about the fate of Kim Jong Un, North Korea’s young supremo, who has not been seen in public since September 3.

Hwang’s trip South on Saturday comes on the heels of a widely publicized report that Kim has been deposed. Jang Jin Sung, a former North Korean counterintelligence and propaganda official, is claiming that the Organization and Guidance Department of the Korean Workers’ Party, responsible for promotions within the regime, has taken over the country. Kim, according to Jang, is now merely a “puppet.”

Leading Korea watchers, however, say they doubt Kim has lost his position at the center of the state founded by his grandfather and passed down to his father, his immediate predecessor. “This kind of travel would be way too out there if anything serious was going on in North Korea, so I don’t think it’s a sign of a coup,” John Delury of Yonsei University in Seoul told The Washington Post of Hwang’s jaunt down to Incheon, near the South Korean capital. Andrei Lankov of nearby Kookmin University, meanwhile, called the surprise visit merely a part of Pyongyang’s recent “charm offensive.” “North Korean diplomacy has been engaged in concerted, well-arranged, well-managed efforts to improve relations with pretty much the entire outside world,” he told the Post. “And you would not expect it to happen with nobody in control.”

Lankov and Delury make a commonsense point, but Jang, a defector to Seoul, maintains that Kim was removed from power last year. That means Hwang could have consolidated his position in the interim and now feels secure enough to travel for a day.

Indeed, there are signs that not only has Hwang risen, but also that Kim has fallen. The young ruler did not preside over last’s month meeting of the Supreme People’s Assembly, the first time that has happened since he took power after his father’s death in December 2011. Yes, he may have been ill, but if he was politically healthy, the meeting would have been postponed until he was able to appear.

Also extremely unusual: The reports on the meeting from the state-run Korean Central News Agency mention Kim—first secretary of the Workers’ Party, first chairman of the National Defense Commission, and supreme commander of the People’s Army, all the top positions in the state and party—only at the end and only in passing. In a regime like North Korea’s, these state media reports spell political infirmity.

And is Kim Jong Un really ill? He was last seen in public walking with a limp—he probably has gout —and state media has reported he is not well, but that is not what one member of Hwang’s 11-member delegation told South Korea’s Unification Minister Ryoo Kihl-jae on Saturday. The next day, Ryoo said he was assured that there were “no problems” with Kim’s health. But if Kim were well, there would have been no reason for him to have stayed out of sight for a month, especially during the Supreme People’s Assembly meeting.

There are too many rumors and reports to allow one to conclude that all is well in Pyongyang.

It is true that Jang Jin Sung’s storyline may not completely add up. After all, as influential as the Organization and Guidance Department may be—some even think it is more important than the National Defense Commission—it is not an agency built to grab and exercise power.

Nonetheless, there are too many rumors and reports to allow one to conclude that all is well in Pyongyang. The story that the city is in lockdown —no permits to travel in or out issued since September 27—suggests that an extraordinary event has occurred. The mid-December execution of Jang Song Thaek, once thought to be Kim’s regent, and the subsequent eradication of his nationwide patronage network are symptoms of distress.

The continual purges during Kim’s short tenure cannot be a good sign. In the space of 15 months he switched out his army chief three times, and it appears he replaced about half of the top 218 military and administrative officials. Pyongyang, according to the Financial Times, has not seen such turmoil since the late 1950s, when his grandfather Kim Il Sung eliminated opposition after his failure in the Korean War. As famed Korea watcher Bruce Bechtol has pointed out, the constant purges of senior civilians and flag officers over the last few years is proof of Kim’s inability to cement his position at the top of the political system.

“Senior officials in North Korea’s Workers’ Party and military are increasingly objecting to policies or ignoring orders from leader Kim Jong Un, leading to rumors that his grip on the country is weakening,” noted the Chosun Ilbo, the most widely read newspaper in South Korea, in late July. Defying instructions would have been unthinkable during the tenure of his father or grandfather.

Of course, in the world’s most opaque regime, almost any scenario is plausible. We should know a lot more, however, when we see who is on the reviewing stand during the October 10 celebration of the founding of the Workers’ Party.

Until then, we can say there are signs that Kim Jong Un has lost substantial power and will soon become, if he is not already, a figurehead.
