What did Kenyans do to deserve this triple ugly tag?

saintneo: Can someone post the Google search on "Ghana is"

This is hilarious.

GenBuhari: [size=18pt]Abacha was one of best leaders Nigeria ever had.

Forget malicious propaganda against him and research his performance, economically, foreign policy /regional influence, sporting achievement.

Once you do your research, you will realise how the enemies of Nigeria has deceived Nigerians.

Even the so-called "Abacha Loot" was never linked to Abacha it was just another elaborate scam to add credence to the lie that Abacha was a looter.[/size]

Should we also research about his achievements in the murder sector of the economy? let"s ask the leader of his death squad major Hamza mustapha who ironically has a death sentence hanging over his head.

Nobody saw this scoreline coming

138 pages seriously? Britain is not a God forsaken country, rather it is a country with a crazy billing system where only the affluent survive.

This thread reminds me of Samuel Selvon"s novel "the lonely londoners" where young homesick west indian immigrants lament their unfulfilled dreams in london and their inability to achieve anything of note ever since they migrated to the city.

However i can see that the londoners posting on this thread are not lonely

I can"t believe i wasted my valuable time to read the full article on the site. Now i am more angry, sad and depressed than i was when i sited this topic on the front page. May the soul of the tyrant and kleptomaniac man called Abacha keep on burning in the hottest part of hell!!

Cool pics....it is not easy working under these conditions at the creeks, the only compensation is that the Oil companies pay well

Good work by the canadian authorities and the locals

The curious case of the missing panties

The dude killed himself, he was dead drunk and was drinking his car returning from the club in the early hours of the morning when he had the accident that fateful day. May his soul rip. Had he been alive today, he would have made more money for himself and his family.
"If you drink, don"t drive and if you drive don"t drink".

The Double portion agenda 2013 of expansion and multiplication as prophesied on the 31st of December 2012 by God"s servant Bishop Oyedepo is already working! Winners chapel has been in Nairobi for the past 18 years, so a 20,000 seater auditorium is not out of place.

Some people on this thread are going around castigating the man of God and deliberately influencing others to resist the gospel of Christ, here is what Jesus said about them in luke 17:2;
"It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble" (New International Version ©2011). You guys should repent.

Here are some pictures

dougivilla: About 32 years ago, this ministry like many others started, but unlike many that have long closed up, its still growing in leaps and bounds.

In all fairness don't you think a ministry that has survived this long deserves commendation? At least we have a bright side to the whole scenero. How many nairalanders are up to 30 years old? How many of us have tried running business ventures, even for a calender year or two without running it under? Even if the man no dash people money as una dey think say him suppose to, are you aware that the commission has in its employ, over 150,000 active employees as Pastors, lecturers, drivers, security, teachers, caterers, bankers, attendants, accountants etc and many more as contractors, technical partners, consultants and other indirect employees?

Imagine that we have up to 100 of such institutions in Nigeria, do you think we would still have as many jobless people as we currently have on NL moving from thread to thread, seeking for whom to run down?

People will always quarrel with what they can't comprehend. Bishop David Olaniyi Oyedepo is simply a phenomenon, God has made him the next wonder of the world and theres nothing anyman can do to whom God has blessed
Quit the hate and keep on working hard and praying. If he can do it for the bishop, He can do it for me and you!

Spot on!!!

Puskin i have seen your work in this thread

They should have taken into consideration the fact that the polymer notes will eventually fade and weighed the economic feasibility before introducing the notes in the first place. Now billions will be spent to reprint the paper notes. At the end of the day one of the "ogas at the top" will be smiling home with his share of the national cake. How long will an individual keep on taking unilateral decisions at the cbn, when is Sanusi"s tenure even expiring? These back and forth movements ain't doing us any good.

There are more opportunities in Lagos than anywhere else in Nigeria

Our leaders always have the option of going abroad for medical treatment so why would they don"t give a damn about building and improving our health infrastructure? Nigerian hospitals are for the poor and poorest of the poor.


[quote author=Okija_juju][b]Let me butt in for a second..

I believe that the problem with our healthcare system is not limited to one thing.

First and foremost, the number one problem is funding. Funding not just in the sense of Salaries and equipments o!! But also research. Go abroad, you will hear things like Chicago State University Hospital is leading in the research for Breas`t cancer. But nothing like that happens here. Corruption is another issue. You see a medical ward abrod, its well equipped with heart rate monitors, machines and equipments all over, but in Nigeria, a brand new 'state of the art' hospital built by a government has just Beds, I.V stands, bedside cupboards and manual equipments. Something as basic as an X-ray machine sef is not available, talkless of a CT scanner or an MRI machine.

I must commend our doctors who tend to do what I call Blind medecine. They diagonose, treat and medicate patients most times without any electronic help like their counterparts in the states. I'm speaking for the good doctors (which are quite many) here. Ask for the bad eggs amonsgt them, ...

Ask for the Hospital assistants like Nurses and attendants, their problems range from poor training to lack of professional discipline and also zero zeal for their jobs. Thats why you can walk into a hospital and a Nurse would just ignore you and be gisting on the phone or be so uncouth to you.

Cleaners!! This is another matter that should be looked into. First problem I see here is the cutting of cost for the purchase of cleaning materials. Most times, they use these local detergents that destroy the gloss and shimmer of tiles. After 1 year, a hospitals toilets and bathrooms are an eyesore. Secondly, I think the Doctors themselves try to divert money here by contracting individuals to clean the toilets rather than paying a company a bulk some to manage the hospitals sanitation.

Basically, the health sector needs to be overhauled.. NOTHING IS WORKING THERE!! Whenever I'm sick, I dont go near a Government hospital. Not because I dont think they have good doctors o! But because the environment most times is worse than my illnness.

To fix the problems in our health sector, the Government needs to do the following;

1. Fund researches.
2.Build world class hospitals complete with 21st century equipments like CT Scanners, MRI Machines, X-ray Machines, EKG machines, e.t.c
3. Properly train Nurses, attendants and Paramedics.. Not just professionally but also on ethics and manners.
4. Re-training. Every now and again, they should go on courses abroad and locally to better themselves.

The boko haram cowards are using civilians as human shield, why can"t they come out openly and face the Jtf squarely. Its sad that these people had to die. Next time they would not harbour terrorists in their midst.

Nice edifice, The house of God is meant to be nice and attractive.

You guys have derailed this thread

Nedu31: People always talk about Akwa Ibom as if Akwa Ibom hav come to age.Akwa Ibom still remain among d backward State in Nig.Don't b deceived by d mere Rd jointly build by Atah n Akpabio in Uyo without good waterway.Just try and visit d followin place after a down pour n confirm if d rd ar sustainable or not; state secretariat roundabout, d whole Abak rd,Ibb way,plaza,Ikot ekpene rd,Atiku way,Oron rd,etc.Mst of d infrastructure in Uyo are mainly 4 bourgeois class.

Are you resident in Akwa ibom? If your answer is no, when last did you visit the state?

Nelson mandela. Spending 27 years in solitary confinement for your political beliefs is no joke, then coming out with your spirit unbroken and forgiving the people who jailed you is almost a Godlike power.

Rocktation: Oh, here's another optical "illusion". If this isn't self-explanatory enough, then I wonder what is.

Tell me, how many people are there in the picture?

Waste of front page space

The business deal turned sour

I think the "Jesus" image is a negative of a "Jesus" diagram. When you stare at the four dots the image superimposes itself on your cornea. When you deflect your eyes to stare at the wall the superimposed negative image refects the positive "jesus" diagram on the wall and fades away gradually.

Cool illusions but i can"t see anything >:

Fadelex: Well, from d little i knw, akwa Ibom has d highest number of house help in Nigeria

That was in the past, not now

It is a good thing that my governor has come out to clarify this issue. When he made the statement in the video he adopted the wrong approach cos he was doing a show of braggadocio. He should be commended not condemned for ensuring that some one from a minority section of the constituency was made to stand in for the primaries and subsequently win the election to represent the constituency. It is akin to what Obasanjo did when he handpicked Goodluck jonathan to be Yaradua"s running mate, without which an Ijaw man would not have smelled the office of the presidency of this nation.

Why are y"all hating on Annie idibia? this is just an excerpt of the interview. So you guys would have preferred her to say that she will give in to any producer that asks her for sex?
