The aviation industry is about the most shitty one here. Airlines will delay or postpone your flight without prior notice and with neither apologies nor refunds, yet they are surprised someone is angry. Them never start. He should have broken the front desks wrists sef plus their mainframe.
Ladies and their smelly hairs, yet many of them will be forming like other people's skin would infect them on contact. It's really a great turn off for me, honestly. Imagine trying to cuddle a chick and almost choking because you're holding your breathe from the stench from her hair? One minute you don come for your own safety. Na by force to carry hair?
evy1: Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari, says he will on May 29 speak on the recovered stolen funds from persons that had been indicted in the fight against corruption.
The report is expected to be part of his speech on that day recognised as Nigeria’s Democracy Day.
In an interview with Channels Television in the UK, where he took part in the London Anti-Corruption Summit, President Buhari said: “So far, what has come out, what has been recovered, in whatever currency, from which ministry, department and individuals, I intend on the 29th to speak on this because all that Nigerians are getting to know are from the newspapers, radio and television.
“We want to make a comprehensive report by May 29”.
On whether the names of the corrupt government officials or those indicted would be published, he said it would eventually be done.
“We want to successfully prosecute them. But you know you can’t go to the court unless you have the documents to do your prosecutions – where some of these people sign for these monies, send it to their personal bank accounts.
“Their banks gave a statement that the money is there when it came how much of it available and so on”.
Never Heard The Word ‘Padding’
On the 2016 budget and the delay that had characterised its processing, he pointed out that if he had not uncovered the padding of the budget, corruption would have crept into the budget, blaming it on technocrats.
“I never heard the word ‘padding’ until this year. I never heard about it. And what does it mean?
“It means that the technocrats just allow the government to make its noise, go and make presentation to the National Assembly so they will remove it and put their own. So, when we uncovered this, we just have to go back to the basics again,” he told Channels Television’s correspondent, Chukwuma Onuekwusi.
President Buhari also made comments on security issues, fight against Boko Haram, increasing herdsmen attacks on communities, militancy in the Niger delta and what will happen to those bowing up gas pipelines in the oil-rich region.
He stressed that he had asked the Chief of Naval staff and other Service Chiefs to work together and make sure that those blowing up installations and subverting the investment in Nigeria would be dealt with eventually.
“When I was in the Petroleum Trust Fund, we made a comprehensive study of cattle routes and grazing areas through Nigeria. I am referring the Governors’ Forum and the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development to it. Let them see what they can do and save the situation.
“There seem to be some credibility to the fact that there are other than Nigerian cattle rearers involved,” he said, linking the development to the crisis in Libya.
“Now this is because of what happened in Libya. When Gaddafi during his 43-year regime, he trained some people from the Sahel… Militarily, he trained them.
“When his regime was overthrown, those people were again dispatched to their countries. They are gone, carrying their weapons and they found themselves even in Boko Haram,” he explained.
President Buhari further said that the increasing herdsmen attacks on communities in Nigeria had become a governmental project, with the government ready to “trace them, disarm them and if necessary try them and discipline them”.
Orikinla: On Tuesday, I brought along three copies of novels by Bisi Daniels, Nigeria's leading adventure novelist as I left with the cast and crew of my "Sights and Sounds of Lagos" tourist documentary film for the final locations of the remaining scenes. All the babes rushed for the novels, but the guys did not even attempt to glance through the pages from morning to evening. And the ladies, Franca Aide, Celina Ideh and Cynthia Chima, were very happy when I told them to keep the books.
Over the years since my childhood, growing up in Nigeria, I have seen that Nigerian girls read more novels than Nigerian boys. You will also see more Nigerian women reading books than Nigerian men, especially among the Igbo's and Yorubas. But in contrast, more than 90% of Nigerian authors are men who are among the best writers in the world, including the first black Nobel Prize winner in Literature, the lionized Prof. Wole Soyinka and the first youngest winner of the Booker Prize, the iconic Ben Okri. That means Nigerian women prefer reading to writing.
Proximity is the main recipe. Then the plastic behaviour people carry to work but might not be who they really are. Some people are actually very professional while others are not. Some are just good at their jobs only (which might be the reason for attractions) but terrible in other aspects of life. In all, it's maturity of the players that really counts.
mars123: leave subsidy and fight for an increased minimum wage all ye potential jobless NANS.
If they increase the minimum wage to N150k, do you think prices of products in the market will remain the same? Abi market women nor dey Facebook and twitter like you to know sef?
Very good. I hope the Muslim brothers who are in support of subsidy removal are equally in support of this since they just want to rid Nigerian of kwarapt Nigerians too?
playtheblues: Thanks for the tutorial but I made an A1 in English language in my WAEC examination and my score was strictly by merit.
You don't expect me to write "am" in my formal writings. I only used it here because this is a social network.
Please may we know the 'miracle centre' you obtained your A1 from and probably how 'meritorious' your so called merit was? I say so because you said ab initio 'am' is the short form of 'I am'.
So in your English language classes you learnt that 'Am' is the short form of 'I am'? Hmm, little wonder you are that rich. What ever happened to 'I'm' as short form of 'I am'?
This government is fantastically lying. They told us that there was no subsidy as at N96.0. So where is the subsidy being removed from? They should just admit they lied ab initio just to get into power, then we can forgive them and start seeing where they're going. Fantastic liars.
David Cameronhas called Nigeria and Afghanistan “possibly the two most corrupt countries in the world”.The prime minister was heard making the comments on Tuesday as he spoke with the Queen at an event to markher 90th birthday.In an apparent reference to the anti-corruption conference he is hosting in London later this week, he can be heard telling the Queen: “We’ve got the leaders of some fantastically corrupt countries coming to Britain.”Footage published by ITV News of the BuckinghamPalace event – showing Cameron speaking in a group including the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Commons Speaker, John Bercow – was sharedon Twitter by the ITV News deputy political editor, Chris Ship.No 10 declined to comment directly on Cameron’s conversations with the Queen but pointed out that the leaders of both countries mentioned had acknowledged the scale ofthe problemthey faced.Afghanistan’s Ashraf Ghani and Nigeria’s Muhammadu Buhari have written essays for a book accompanying the summit.Ghani reportedly acknowledges in his piece thatAfghanistanis “one of the most corrupt countries on Earth” and Buhari that corruption became a “way of life” in his country under “supposedly accountable democratic governments”. Lalasticlala, do the needful.
Wagasigiungu: The Minister of Health, Prof. Isaac Adewole has declared that henceforth recruitment of staff for teaching hospitals will be done centrally by the Ministry of Health once in a year. Adewole declared this while responding to a request made by the Chief Medical Director of the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital (UUTH) Prof. Etete Peters on Saturday when he visited the hospital. Peters had told the minister that lack of funds had made it difficult to recruit 141 staff members approved by the Federal Government. He said that lack of funds had prevented the hospital from recruiting staff, in spite of waiver granted to employ staff of various cadres mostly nurses and resident doctors. Peters, who decried the shortage of staff in key specialties, sought the Minister’s permission to recruit consultants in Neurosurgery, Chemical Pathology, Dental Surgery, Endocrinology and Pathology.
“The hospital is currently facing dearth of staff following massive retirement of nurses and other staff. “The challenges facing the hospital range from paucity of funds, inability to complete the ongoing infrastructural projects to the provision of more medical equipment,” the CMD said. He listed uncompleted projects in the hospital to include Radiology Services Block, General Outpatients Block, Laboratory complex, School Block and Theatre Building. Peters also complained that facilities in the 520 bed hospital were over-stretched and as such the hospital needed more funds for expansion projects. Responding, the Minister promised to look into the 2016 budget for the hospital with a view to ensure the completion of the ongoing projects. Adewole said that he would like to inaugurate the General Outpatients Building within the fiscal year so as to give the hospital enough space for Accident and Emergency Unit. He commended the Akwa Ibom government for announcing the release of N100 million for the completion of the General Outpatients Building out of the N150 million required. The minister commended the CMD for maintaining services in the hospital in the face of lean resources and called for improvement. He said that the 2016 budget was very tight and promised that more things would be achieved for the hospital in 2017 budget. Adewole said that the recruitment of house officers in Teaching Hospitals would be done centrally from the Federal Ministry of Health once in a year. – The News.

VillageParrot: Barring any last minute changes, President Muhammadu Buhari will within the next few days officially announce the removal of subsidies in prices of petroleum products, SIGNAL can authoritatively report.
Presidency sources informed about the development told SIGNAL on Saturday that President Buhari has already started consultation with the leadership of the National Assembly and key Labour leaders before the official announcement.
According to the source, “President Buhari has come to terms with the economic challenges associated with government subsidy for petroleum products. The current economic situation of the country, has made it even more imperative to remove subsidy, because it is not sustainable.”
It will be recalled that in July 2015, President Buhari dismissed calls for his government to remove fuel subsidy. According to him, “I have received many literature on the need to remove subsidies, but much of it has no depth”.
Who do these guys think they're deceiving? During Jonathan's era APC said there was NOTHING like subsidy, that it was just a ploy to syphon money. Now they want to remove what WASN'T?
Sirnose: Hello peeps!..good evening There has been a nagging question i have asking,but have'nt gotten an answer. The question is,if God only created Adam and Eve,and they in turn begat Caine and Abel,who begot every other person on earth as at then.we are told that after God cast Caine out of His presence,he became a wanderer and eventually got a wife and married her(Gen.5 vs 17). Where did this wife of Caine come from? Did God created other people after Adam and Eve? Why was it not recorded in d Bible? Is the compilation of the Bible even complete?
Somebody asked a similar question last week or thereabouts, I gave him just one simple answer. Jesus was human, right? Flesh and blood. Meaning he ate and drank like we do. After eating and drinking what next, you defecate right? Was there any record of Jesus using a toilet in the same Bible? I bet you know the answer to that. So my dear child, if you seek to see EVERY THING spelt out in the Bible, the your God given brain is being wasted. FILL IN THE BLANK SPACES!!
See what colonialism has done to your shallow brain? What has being an Oba got to do with your hell fire? In the juju man's eyes, do you think you will make their own heaven? Or the Muslim or Bahai or Buddhist or Monk's? Please use those gray matter contained inside your skull if you have any before you carry religion like a plague on your forehead.
martyns303: Dude doesn't even looks like someone who owns a property and even if he do own one, there's no way in zeus name anyone would bath in that. It looks like an abandoned place, cos even by taking her bath, water would have washed of some of the dirt.

tuzeriouz: that's the prob I always have with FTC: they comment just to be the first to do so and not to sell a point. The report never said that the assailant is male. So why the quoted comment? Further intel may root a female assailant, just may be. BTW, RIP
'Men' in that context doesn't necessarily mean male man but 'human being'. What I find absurd is poster not stating where, name or anything else. Just okada rider killed because of his bike. Is Delta a place? There are places inside Delta in case he/she doesn't know. People have names too.
Tiegarr: Shut up! Your comments scream "support"..Why didn't they do this during the time of Jona...Oh I forgot.Jona developed the area at the time.. Ewu!
Cry all you want. They've done what they did. How long did it take your 'able' President to recognize the Fulani Herdsmen as menace to society? Keep deceiving yourself.
Adebola02: Let them cripple the economy,it will surely affect their families and loves also. I wonder what on earth this militant want from the government.
Don't wonder far. Unlike your brothers the Bokites, they want development in their area, they want some of the monies gotten from their soil spent in their area too. They want their children to be employed in the numerous companies that comes to sap their oil. They want to be heard when they talk. The heads of all the oil companies in Nigeria are either Northerners or Westerners. They don't want lopsided employments again such that interview for jobs in Delta State will be taken to Abuja and Senators and Reps will be dictating who gets the job. Their lands are terrible and untenable because of oil spillage. They are predominantly fishermen and farmers, they need their daily livelihoods. I don't support what they are doing but obviously if you want to get results in Nigeria, that's the way to go. If only they could target the legislooters, I'd swear allegiance with them. All oil blocks in the region are owned by Northerners. Abuja was built with money from this deplorable region. Nobody cares. They treat the region like whores. Just Bleep and go. Yes they truly have reasons to get agitated, but...
Actually very dumb ones plus Home videos too. Do you know that they really believe and relate to those love stories? I plan on deleting those stupid channels from my subscription.
When I was in school, that was my 2nd year, I was living with an Uncle and he has many cars, and two of them was at our disposal. His two sons, my age mates can all drive, but I can't, I have never drive before in my life.
One morning as I was washing one of the cars, I never knew that you must not step on the throttle before the car moves, I just start the car, engage the gear and remove my leg from the crunch, the car jumped and hit the car in front. That was my first experience with a car.
Weeks later, one of the sons asked me to drive, we're on the highway, he told me what to do and was like I got it. From gear 1, I jumped to gear 4 while I was dancing with the steering, I nearly caused an accident.
That was how I managed to learn, after many attempts.
How did you learn how to drive, did you went to a driving school?
I learnt the hard way too, but I learnt how to write in simple and correct English before I hit the road. Try it, it really works.

It's a pathetic story. Terrible things people do nowadays. But what is even more pathetic is reading what was written. I have a headache from trying to make sense from all the jargon that was posted. Haba, are there no more English teachers anymore anywhere?
manuch: A bill for a law which prescribes five-year jail term for lecturers who engage in sexual relationship with students was passed for first reading in the Senate on Wednesday.
The bill, sponsored by Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege (Labour-Delta Central) and co-sponsored by 46 other senators, seeks to completely prohibit any form of sexual relationship between lecturers and their students.
Briefing newsmen after plenary, Omo-Agege said that the nation’s institutions of higher learning must be sanitised to rid them of lecturers who saw female students as “prize’’.
According to him, when the bill is passed and signed into law, any lecturer found guilty will be liable to a jail term of up to five years but not less than two years with no option of fine.
“When passed into law, it makes it a criminal offence for any educator in a university, polytechnic or any other tertiary educational institution to violate or exploit the student-lecturer fiduciary relationship for sexual pleasures.
“The bill imposes stiff penalties on offenders in its overall objective of providing tighter statutory protection for students against sexual hostility and all forms of sexual harassment in tertiary schools.
“The bill provides a compulsory five-year jail term for lecturers who sexually harass students.
“When passed into law, vice chancellors of universities, rectors of polytechnics and other chief executives of institutions of higher learning will go to jail for two years if they fail to act within a week on complaints of sexual harassment made by students.
“The bill expressly allows sexually harassed students, their parents or guardians to seek civil remedies in damages against sexual predator lecturers before or after their successful criminal prosecution by the State.
“The bill also seeks to protect, from sexual harassment, prospective students seeking admissions into institutions of learning, students of generally low mental capacity and physically challenged students,’’ he stated.
The lawmaker said that it was practicable in other climes as “honour codes’’ but stressed that it should be domesticated in Nigeria in the Penal form.
The bill reads: “an educator shall be guilty of committing an offence of sexual harassment against a student if he/she has sexual intercourse with a student.
“He or she shall be guilty if he has sexual intercourse with a student or demands for sex from a student or a prospective student as a condition to study in an institution.
“He or she shall be guilty if he has sexual intercourse with a student or demands for sex from a student or a prospective student as a condition to the giving of a passing grade.
“ He or she shall be guilty if he solicits sex from or makes sexual advances at a student when the sexual solicitation or sexual advances result in an intimidating, hostile or offensive environment for the student.
“He or she shall be guilty if he directs or induces another person to commit any act of sexual harassment under this Act, or cooperates in the commission of sexual harassment by another person.
“He or she shall be guilty if he grabs, hugs, rubs or strokes or touches or pinches the breasts or hair or lips or hips or buttocks or any other sensual part of the body of a student.
“He or she shall be guilty if he displays, gives or sends by hand or courier or electronic or any other means naked or sexually explicit pictures or videos or sex related objects to a student.
“He or she shall be guilty if he whistles or winks at a student or screams or exclaims or jokes or makes sexually complimentary or uncomplimentary remarks about a student’s physique.’’
The bill also has provisions to sanction students who falsely accuse lecturers of sexual harassment. Such students could face dismissal from the school but no jail term was prescribed.
According to the bill, the only exemption is where the student is legally married to the lecturer before admission in the school as a student.
It states that the consent of the student shall not serve, in anyway, as a defence as the bill seeks to completely ban lecturer-student relationships. The bill also imposes on institutions the responsibility to protect students who initiates a sexual harassment charge.
