Dannylux: I think this is natural

Donmams: One thing i'm proud of is that the entire south, with all its education and intellectuals does not have anyone close to Buhari and Murtala Mohammed.

shymexx:

Anyway, respect my conglomerate and don't talk about money to me next time. I'm self-made and the money for the number of cars I've crashed in my life and what the bookies took from me alone should be able to feed about 10,000 starving Somali kids. Not cocky but I hate when people disrespect me for no reason.

Just go and sin no more - I don't respect riches.

omiobo: Nairaland is becoming boring day by day. I'm beginning to view nairaland in musiwa's perceptive as a fraud. If nairaland cannot help to put an end to tribalism but contribute to it. I must say nairaland is indeed a fraud.

cashkid18: wat is dis one saying

dridowu: Flood is a natural disaster

ujoinme: Why is it that its only Africans are the ones constantly heaping our retrogression on the colonial rule? most of the world was divided up and colonized by Europeans even the US was once a colony.

The Asian countries were also colonized but today they have all risen from the ills of colonialism and have improved their countries bountifully.

Why cant Nigeria do same? am begining to think that these strategy is for us to accommodate out incompetence by shifting blame.

I know colonialism was bad for the colonized all over the world including Nigeria, but my point is that most countries have recorded significant growth after colonialism, we in Nigeria should do same rather than keep blaming colonialism for everything.

the picture above is a little sign that we can do better as Nigerians.

ujoinme: [b]When i went through the trouble to get those photographs which were right protected on flicker to be released so i could share with you guys on the forum i had promised the original owner of photographs British guy that i will share your reactions to the piece of historical heritage (photograph) with him.

But now am so ashamed of the reaction here that i dont know if its worth sending him the link to this thread.

the reason being that like nigerians we have reduced this to a tribal/ethnic group divide, governors vs other governors + whose fraudulent or not.
There was no political agenda for this thread but purely historical

This was about our history as Akwa ibomites/ Nigerians and to showcase how ibom connection was in 1930 when most of us were not born and what it is in the present time.
I even solicited for a more recent picture of ibom connection to be posted alongside the pic as am presently not in uyo to take pictures. but you all ignored those and went on a tirade instead.

We as Nigerians should be very conscious of what we put out on the web. [/b]

holly-pagan:
for give me God ,i got to church i watch beautiful gals and their dressing also i watch how they package their two banana,

Ms_Steph: I was in church and noticed that a lot of people where not paying attention and I noticed some odd things
1) Some pinging
2)Indecent dressing among ladies: I really thing ushers should do something about dis cause I saw a lot of cleavages dat wasn't meant for the church
3) Make up: the way some ladies make up and come to church as if its a beauty pageant even in pageants am sure gals don't dress like that
4) Gossiping: a lot of people use this precious time not to worship God but talk about other people in church mostly back benchers do this
5) Sagging: this is for the guys for real tho can't you just kip your trouser up just for an hour or two for God?
6) Love connection: during service you will see guys/ladies looking at demselves in a seductive way
7) Receiving of calls when the service is going on
If you have any please share yours

bendicion09: What of Spain? Anyone here, who lives in Spain? I hold a permanent residence permit of Spain but walahi, i am tired of this country, there are no jobs. Anyone who lives in Spain here who can advice me on how to go about getting a job? How can i migrate to any of the schengen states in search of a job?

Spain is a very beautiful country to live in , the weather, the people etc but the economic crisis is really dealing with us here.

nekede11: He is right,dat s exactly hw tinz goes n ministry of interior.

IYA NGBALI: you are a foooooooooooool,how can you be comparing a president with a former governor who is not holding any political office. GEJ is the president while Tinubu is just an ordinary citizen,you dont expect people to attack Tinubu the way attack GEJ. Copy that boy

shejane: Dot kw much abt diesel cars thou bt I love my fuel car

Mayb if I try diesel car is possible I wil lyk it

Bt 4 now fuel car all d way nd toyota is d best

playmode: Join hands with who? With these ignorant buffoons who call themselves Nigerians? Just take a look at NL and see how some buffoons are supporting a bonafide criminal ifeanyi Ubah to become Governor.You want me to join hands with dumb Negroes who knowingly elect fraudsters to govern over them? Na OYO you dey ,i left Nigeria 12 years ago and i have not looked back ever since.My children are citizens of my adopted country so they will never be subject to the hellish conditions that exist in Nigeria. Most of my family members have come to join me in my new country and the ones that are still in Nigeria are crying everyday begging me to get them out of that trash hole called Nigeria.Call a spade a spade,Nigeria is a failed state inhabited by mostly morons who have lost the ability to engage their thinking faculties.Nigeria makes the simplest things very hard.If you have tasted heaven you can NEVER EVER go back to hell.

pacer: well all i bleeped the girls thats right ,but they made me sin.i was tempted.The devil made me do it

Confusion: You are one of the problem that nigeria has, critcizing everything
Do you think she is stupid not to have carried out other feasibility studies before embarking on this kind of project
For your information most ideas like this are actually suggested to her by people, orgarnization or countries that have seen the immense opportunities of this,
Furthermore I expect most of us to be thinking of ways to tap into this, all we do is criticise and when the chinese take advantage of all the adjoing business that comes out of this, we will still complain.
Pls if u cant help with good advise then shut up and let us develop nigeria with infrastrure, even if we don't use it our children will think of something better to do with it, it is better than leaving the money go to into one stupid foreign account.
Pls instead of the tribal fighting and criticism I thing we should be coming up with adjoing businesses that is directly or indirectly linked to the move.
I want to start by giving a few business that I can think of at the moment
1.Packaging business(with preservative)
2.Inspection consultant(Nafdac registered
3.Consultant to teach the farmer how best to preserve their goods
4. Small scale refrigirator business close or at a central location for proxy farmers
5. Large scale refrigirator close to the terminal for storage before depature
6. Liason officer to sourse oversea customers

Please there is so much that can come out of this
I hate small minded people especially those nigerians that are abroad

Beretta92: Well,I'm not yoruba but I think it means "from abroad".Literally,it means "from over the seas" cos okun in yoruba means river or any water body.It could be preceeded by a prefix such as Ola(wealth),therefore meaning wealth 4rm abroad.I believe the actual meaning is the reason for its use for 2nd hand stuff cos some are brought from overseas.
