Give them an inch of your land and they will take all your land from you in the nearest future.

He is aware. Because I share them with him. As I am aware of any gift he receives, so is he aware about any gift I receive.

He is not so insecure to be concerned about whom I'm receiving gifts from because the person giving me the gift knows that there are no strings. I don't pretend to be single outside. Everyone around me knows I'm married. So whoever is giving me a gift especially men, and expecting something in return is in for a shocker.

Men can toast you even when they know your husband and children. Never be too sure of yourself. And don't think you can handle everything. A guy out there could be smarter than you think. The best thing is to try and keep away as much as you can and don't take everything for granted thinking that you are in control.

Double Jeopardy!

Which should we be more concerned with. The fact that he was raped or that he was raped by a fake Policeman?

Or that he stole all his money using his debit card?

Instead of you helping to separate them, you are busy snapping pictures. What if one of them should die, are you going to be happy?

You know something....why apologize to a woman who did nothing about the mess in NNPC....especially the fact that because we did not properly fix the refineries and add new ones under her rule.....we are in this mess.

1.You are paying N180 for fuel(it is still N86.50 in major marketers and NNPC fuel stations....higher in some independent marketers)....because the fuel subsidy.....WHICH YOU DO NOT WANT REMOVED....and which your new hero supported its removal....is preventing marketers from making profits....so as a result....they have to sell much higher than official price....or else they won't have the dollars needed to import.

2.Have you ever thought why we do not have the dollars for imports? It is because oil prices have fallen....so we can no longer waste dollars on everything.....we need it to keep up the naira....so that you sports fans wont be paying N100000 for a loaf of bread.

And if the subsidy goes.....you would be paying far higher for fuel. So...why are you complaining. Do you expect APC to diversify the economy in 10 months....when PDP and your new heroes did not do it in 16 years?

3.Ask your new hero why no new refineries were built? Even if the ones we have are working at full capacity....we would still need to import 23 million liters of fuel every day. And the reason prices stayed at N97-N87 per liter during her time was because...we had the dolalrs to import and subsidze the fuel at the same time. Now we do not...and now the decisions we made not to build new refineries has come back to haunt us.

4.Ask your heroes why at the end of their rule...they were still owing money to the marketers? That is why they refused to import...they were owing so much that they were in debt...and they still owe. Because....we no longer have the dollars to import since oil prices fell.

5.And is it now you are noticing we bought fuel at higher prices. I bought fuel at N102-110 during GEJ's time. I even know of people who bought fuel at N170 in Minna during GEJ time. And fuel in SE and SS was above N150 during GEJ's time. Indeed...it was only Lagos and Abuja that sold fuel at N97 during GEJ's time....in the very outskirts of ABuja.....fuel was sold as high as N140. during gej'S TIME.

6.What would solve this problem is ......removal of subsidy. But that would put prices of fuel above N150....the same price you are complaining about....but fuel would flow. You are complaining about high prices....and yet...you paradoxically do not want the actual solution to your problem....apart from five new refineries?

Nigeria needs at least 23 million extra liters per day...in addition to the new 17 million liters of fuel per day.Some even put it at 53 million extra liters per day!

Abeg...why apologize to someone who spent all the time in office doing nothing to solve the problem....and hiding the problem via massive dollar influx to import fuel to paper the cracks. Nigeria needs new refineries and removal of subsidy. Things that your new heroine did not do ...and before anyone calls me zombie....things that the new APC govt must do if they want to sort this issue out once and for all.

Nigerians....

You just wasted your time speaking thrash. You simply endorsed what the guy said in your ignorance. You just confirmed that APC/Buhari deceived Nigerians. They said that subsidy is a scam and never existed. They argued that at N97 per liter, that Nigerians were paying higher in fuel let alone paying subsidy to marketers. Some even argued that the price should be around N45 per liter. They lied, and lied to Nigerians that no one really took time to listen to Dezieni. Now that they are in power, what have they done to prove that the past administration wasted resources in petrol subsidy?

China and the West are in sharp contrast to each other. PMB should realize that he can't gain from both sides at a time. He's junketing all over the world might just turned out to be a waste of time and resources. I wish him good luck, though.

Remembering that day now, and I regret ever supporting aJala the traveler.

"Any serious government can provide electricity within six months"-Fashola......... How time flies. Your words are coming back to hunt you, Mr Fashola.

gozzlin:
Lies! There is no iota of veracity in these claims.


There's no single place in the Bible where the death of any of the original apostles was recorded except Judas who hanged himself. Any other claims outside the Supreme authority of the Bible are mere conjectures and utter fallacy.

Besides, how can God allow His first apostles to die such gruesome deaths? I refuse to believe these myths.

In case you don't know, some books authored by historians that lived before that period and afterwards are still in existence to support some of the claims. Mind you, the Bible is not flawless as we are made to believe. If you really wants to know more about God and Jesus existence, you should look beyond the biblical account.
Even in the case of Judas that you mentioned, the Bible gave two contradicting accounts. It's only those that goes extra mile can understand and explain why there are contradictions in the Bible.

Oh, God! not again. Just wondering what Buhari and his cohorts would have said or done if Jonathan was the one skinning and milking the poor masses as they are doing since they came into power.

House wey them never even start the foundation. Make una dey there dey kill unaself. Wondering how Aregbesola of Osun state will get the fund to build his own units of the house. Does anyone thinks it's possible for the president to dish out money only to APC states alone? It's quite impossible. No one should loose sleep over Buhari's comments and promises because I don't take him serious anymore. By the way, other parties may have their own priorities and manifestos don't necessarily has to be housing.

redgem:
Hmmmmm... I don't believe the man's story because no sane Corp member will want to kill his career after the years he has spent building it...


My thoughts though.....

The boss saw that the young man has potentials and will be a great lawyer so, he decided to kill his career before it starts. He called the young corp to his private chambers asked for something from him, the Corper refused then, he staged everything...

Some people are destiny killers

And what could that be? Sex, initiation......... ? My thought though.

Jahdeyemi:
translate pls.....tnx

It simply means ; Let the dogs leak his eyes, and that he should take his lunch and disappear, please.

I'm glad that for once, Nigerians here put aside their tribal sentiments to support a fellow Nigerian. If it continues this way, I'm sure a time will come when the masses will no longer pay attention to the deceitful and thieving political class that fuels discrimination along tribes and religion to enhance their personal and selfish ambitions.

Is this a new trend or what? What about their own girls? They would never allow any man near their own yet they forcefully take other people's daughters.

Hollawayn05:
Let's learn to be patient... it's just almost a year and we should give him more time...
and at the end, if he FaiL us den we av the power to remove him come 2019..

Looking at the way things are going, I doubt if INEC will be free and independent under Buhari.

OneManLegion:
It's now Buhari's fault that corrupt civil servants in the oil servants hurriedly went on strike because they fear the effects of the unbundling policy on their thievery.

Meanwhile, this Ben Murray Bruce has totally lost my respect. I mean, totally.

Thrash! The fuel scarcity has been there many weeks ago before the strike. Some people are not just being honest.

Vyolet:
I never enter one chance o, my man happens to be one of those that still maintains marital sacredness, he has proven my thought about men wrong in most occasion but then maybe because we are still young, only time will tell.

No man cheats except he is caught. Try very hard not to catch him.

dustmalik:
Be wary of Vanguard. I'm sure they smuggled in that statement. Don't you think Oyegun would be so foolish to make such statement in a place full of press?

Typical APC Z. When you goofs and fumble you look for an scape goat to lay the blame on.

doyinisaac:
Welcome to Nigeria,a country where people celebrate you for accepting defeat...just do election and loose and accept defeat then you become a hero...

You may never understand what they are talking about until you loose loved ones, businesses or even your life to post election violence.
Just a go ahead signal from Mr Jonathan would have brought the nation to it's knees by Mr Dasuki. I can assure you that many of the then serving military chiefs were willing to go down with Jonathan than having a Buhari as their president. Give honour to whom honour is due.

Serves her right as long as they keep shouting: Touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm; Do not judge, etc etc.......

mazeltov:
I don't have problem with this news. We all know that one day, the sanctions against Iran would be lifted. Of course the sanction can't everlasting as some people think.
My concerns focus on the weakling 'OPEC' organisation.
Honestly since the creation of Opec, I am yet to see its usefulness to the global oil market. I thought Opec would serve as a regulator to regulate these gluts. Sometimes we need to leave the players and blame the coach.
Opec is just too weak to control the output of crude oil into the global market. At least, Opec should be strong enough to impose sanctions on some giant countries like United States or even Venezuela if they outstep their production.

Not all oil producing nations are member of OPEC, and therefore, are not bound to obey it's directions.

chronos:
Op this doesn't look like nigeria..

Carter bridge in Lagos, I think . It connects Lagos island to mainland.

phemmyutd:
.what can you say about this?

Brass - pdp 5
Gej unit - apc 0

Polling units, it's possible. But entire LGA, it's ridiculously impossible.

Neither here nor there "prophesies ''Con men!

mars123:
Tinubu is talking short term, you are talking long-term. If the government is serious, subsidy would be removed and palliatives will be put in place to cushion the effect on vulnerable citizens like free meals, transport, portable water. The end justifies the means. There will be protests initially but with palliatives, it will go down. governance is not rocket science. Tinubu is making sense.

What's the difference between what he said and what the last administration tried to do?

Standing5:
A dwindling Naira value has pushed fuel prices up in local market. Imagine the diff when 1$ changed for N165 and N260 that's some 35% increase as against some ~40% decrease intl oil prices. PDP really fùcked things up.

to the guy below, Subsidy didn't exhist technically. Buhari never meant subsidy isn't in existence. It wasn't logical to carry on with it. Marketters were stealing from it and the same govt who put the marketers into relevance couldn't manage their excesses. Buhari was right.

No sir, petroleum marketers do not buy the dollars from the parallel market but officially from CBN at N198 per dollar.

Metering should come first, please. They are killing us with estimated bills in Coker/Aguda.

This is a tough one though, but you may try by starting one or two things. Not too sure how spirituality or prayers could stop that permanently, but you could try that too if you have to. But the most surest method I will recommend are Determination and Discipline.
First step is to start by deleting ALL Indecency Videos from your phones, computers and every other places that you could have them handy. Then determined that you will never replace them anymore. The second phase is even the tougher step, but if you are determined and disciplined, you can overcome that phase too. Though it won't be as simple as pressing some buttons to delete because it has to do with virtual, imagery, fantasies in your brain and mind. The only way to overcome this is by being Disciplined. Start by trying not to think or fantasize any act of sex. Keep away from anything that could trigger the urge. If you can overcome that in a day or two, then you can deal with it. At least overcoming the addiction part of it. From there you keep progressing.

The last step which could come much later after you have overcome the above two steps is to try and get into a relationship with the "right" woman. Though some people may disagree with me on that. But no matter how we may try to run away from realities, they always comes back. You must be able to build the right and normal sex life. If you are addicted to masturbation, homosexual or any kind of abnormal sex life for a very long time, then be rest assured that you can never get a sexual satisfaction with any woman. That is just the reality. It doesn't matter if all the pastors and imams lay hands on you to pray or speak in tongues. That is the reason why one needs to build the normal sex life notwithstanding your religious beliefs.

Wishing you all the best in your quest to overcoming self service.

It appears that those who struggle to comment first actually have nothing upstairs. I have learnt to scroll past the first few comments in every topic before reading intelligent and well constructed comments.

And to the OP, seeking a medical attention I believe is not too much ask. Good luck and quick recovery.

why not do the honourable thing pay the bride price which is very cheap in some culture,
get the blessing of her parents and your and let a pastor bless you both (if you cant afford a wedding gown) the key is the blessin.

What if you are neither a Christian nor Muslim, would that mean there will be no blessings in your marriage?

But how did it actually happened? Perhaps, could be an accident and the parents/police decided to make a case out of it. It sounds unbelievable if the man did it intentionally. Whatever was the cause, the sad thing is that an innocent child perished just like that. So sad!
