Vote for Ihedioha/Irona

Vote for PDP

Ihedioha should capitalize on this confusion in APC.

But it seems the man is asleep, confused, weak or incompetent.

Nearly 60 years after independence from colonial rule, why do our lawyers still wear these things on their heads?

https://www.fixusjobs.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/nigeria-lawyer.jpg

Is it that we cannot devise a home-grown attire for our lawyers, or is it that we so love the colonial rulers and exploiters of our land, that we just cannot let go of their legacy?

Did somebody do juju on us to turn us into mumus where the colonialists are concerned?

India, Pakistan, and parts of China were colonised by the British. But their legal systems have jettisoned those colonial wigs ages ago.

In Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, and other ex-colonies, still continue to wear them.

What is wrong with us as a people?

Seriously, we need to approach our ancestors for forgiveness, in case we did something to them that made them place a curse on us, that has turned us into dumb mumus without basic common sense and dignity, especially where it concerns Europeans.

Imagine for a second how the white people will be laughing their heads off when they see us wearing these things, a full sixty years after independence.

It's truly disgusting.

No matter the level of education that a Nigerian attains, s/he is still a child. Even if you free a Nigerian slave, s/he put the chains back, lock it and give the keys back to the masters. The significance of those rags on their head is very disturbing. The wig alone is the main reason I have zero respect for any lawyer in Nigeria.

It’s called rule of engagement

Army are not trained to maintain peace

They are trained to kill

/
Wrong!

Army has no business in the street in the first place.

That is the job of the NPF.

Laird:
It's painful the way Arabs treat their Black servants

/
Painful?

What do you tell the morons that keep selling themselves to slavery when it is obvious that there are no human rights for women in the Arab world?

As you write, some are being packaged to go to Arab countries to become voluntary slaves.

Andyblaze:
About a month ago, top Port Harcourt based act and one of Nairaland's finest Andy Blaze blessed us with "Pick Up" which garnered rave reviews.
Today, he has decided to drop yet another single for the year. Venus it is titled and this is a slow rhythmic love song with which you could easily swoon your partner to using its melodious harmonies and catchy tune.

It's definitely one of the best songs you would come across right now.

Sorry to admit that I like it.

Good job!

There is more to it.

Just like acoholics and gamblers, a shopaholic is equally bad in a relationship. Lack of contentment will definitely lead to many vices that will crash a marriage.

The trend is clear. Nigeria has been gradually sliding into abyss with each successive government even with heavy promises they made at inception.

I believe that if Atiku wins, he will be worse than Buhari--.

Trend reversal in African politics is done through violence and violence only. Ghana did it. Anambra (during Ngige vs Uba) did it. Nigeria is not there yet. Until then, abyss here we come.

/

/
Now that it is official, watch how quickly Nigerians switch allegiance.

Abagworo in Uzodinma's political rally? Erase the word "impossible" in your lexicon when talking about politics in Nigeria.

To those mocking Rochas, stay calm. He probably has looted enough for even his generations unborn. He ain't hurting. They will find a way to rehabilitate/compensate him if APC wins. Don't ever go hunting with a Nigerian politician. But if you do, ensure that you are the one holding the gun.

Shey that background na wall poster??

Abi na heaven??

Aren't you one of those that "hail" a governor that builds a flyover or roundabout?

/

/
How are you supposed to pay your employees when it seems that the more you owe them, the more they "hail" you?

Ask Fayose and Rochas.

/
You send this lady to a polling booth and Nigerian youths will erroneously vote for the wrong candidate.

/

/
Nigerians have "crabs in a bowl" mentality: Instead of others will be better, let all be down and suffering.
They forget trickle-down effects. Why would any sane being promote another term for Buhari if not for self-hate idiocy? Nations are on fast track to economic boom. There is no room for wobbles except in Nigeria.
A failure makes promises to be better when the capacity is non-existent. Surprisingly, you will have full grown adults swallowing all the fibs.

lobell:
Ok, I finally snapped today after seeing one more comment starting with 'between'. If I don't address this issue now I might strangle myself next time I see one.
The commentators have seen, I presume, a comment starting with 'btw' and assumed rather erroneously that it was a short form for the word 'between' and have gone ahead to use it in its long form never minding to query if the comment they saw made complete sense if 'btw' was replaced with 'between'. Plus nothing stops one from asking if one doesn't know. The Hausas have a proverb that says "matambayi baya bata - meaning, he who asks never gets lost".

Please my fellow Nairalanders if you don't understand something, anything, just ask. It doesn't make you unintelligent but rather makes you smarter for next time instead of assuming and looking like an *** or worst still leading other learners astray!
my two kobos worth!

PS: If you are reading this and have ever used 'between' in place of 'btw' please go and fix it. NOW!

/
So if someone uses "btw" for between...what will you do?

Jd50:
I do not think Linda should have dignified her with a response. However the record must be set straight, I gave birth to my daughter in that same hospital (Emory Midtown Hospital), it is one of the best hospitals in America and I can tell from the pictures even to the food plates were 100% valid and true based on my experience at Emory Midtown.

/
How is Linda's response suppose to be dignifying?

They are on the same level. They are inglorious babymamas.

I don't know why folks keep putting Linda on a pedestal. Her hypocrisy is already out in public.

BTW, if a medical group is affiliated to a hospital and you are a patient, you can deliver in that hospital as long as your insurance is valid. What is special about Emory? Hospitals do not discriminate. There are many people on welfare who delivered in Emory as well.

/
Some ladies just know how to select them.

A man dressing like a boy? No man above 23 should look like this.

AngelicBeing:
Alternatively, madam was a runs woman, the previous security reported to Oga that unwanted visitors do visit the house in his absence, madam got angry and sacked the previous security guard, a new security guard was employed, madam meanwhile connives with either the cook to kill her husband, madam / the new security and the cook are all suspects, nawao

/
We are all weaving this basket of conspiracy.

The common denominator is that the wife is privy to what befell the husband.

/

/
I still don't understand this penchant for cook and drivers for families in Nigeria. You even hear stories of gatemen not paid for 2 months yet oga/madam expects peaceful sleep at night.

So the sacked gatemen kept tab on all visitors. Oga couldn't explain who is Funmi that visited oga when madam traveled. Wahala gas! Oga sacked gateman and employed new servants. But madam already had her mind made up: Oga must die!

And here they are...let the mystery unravel.

What Christians indoctrinated into the religion by birth (especially Africans) don't know is that the first person (Tyndale ) who translated the Bible into English was publicly executed by strangulation and thereafter burnt on a stake by the church.

People do not understand that church had always been a political organization. When the new frontier was carved, the leaders having witnessed the machinations of the church against people, came up with the concept of separation of the church and state. What frontier was that? United States of America! So for all the Nigerians shouting separation of church and politics, it matters only in USA where the declaration was made. But then, ignorance is bliss.

Obas turned to beggars.

Stomach infrastructure?

/

/
The beauty of it is that they are taking the fight to Abuja where the politicians feel they are safe.

If Boko Haram targets Abuja, they will be taken more seriously. The nonchalant attitude of the politicians in clear and present danger is the phantom security they believe exists in Abuja. Rattle the city and things will shape up.

/

/
When has killing stopped protests in Nigeria?

Kill members of IPOB...next protest, multitudes show up.
Kill hundreds of almajiri... next protest, thousands show up.

Ideology, beliefs and convictions are hard to terminate.

Those without these attributes scatter at the sound of the first slap, buy data, jump online and start spewing bvllshit about their sophisticated cowardice.

Famousbabe:
A twitter user, The Village Headmaster shared this video of Muhammadu Buhari participating in NN24 2011 presidential election debate as flagbearer of CPC.

He then captioned it:

"If they tell you President
@MBuhari is scared to debate, show them this video"

Watch video HERE

The then presidential aspirant, Buhari, participated actively in the debate, answered his questions.

Here are some reactions:

Even in Finance, they have a disclaimer that past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

Good debating skills...except that there is no communication. I (hopefully I am not alone) can barely understand what he said. So much for debate.

/

Olalan:
Twitter and lies or isn't it the same police you give 5k and they hail you like a chairman, if it's true they collected over 50k from him it's definitely not for not having his drivers licence.

/
N5k to police?

N500 will get you the same level of "hailing".

People need to fine-tune their haggling skills.

6Ebisco:
He stressed that the fact that the Island Club had existed for 75 years had put a lie to the claim that there were no institutions in the country.

This, he said, was another lesson that the nation had to learn from the club’s 75th anniversary, stressing that the fact that people expected more from the existing institutions did not mean that the institutions did not exist.


https://www.mcebisco.com.ng/2018/10/one-term-not-enough-to-fix-nigeria.html

/
Apparently Buhari has no clue about institutions (aka systems) in place and what it means.

/

Throwback:
You mean how you ran away after making empty threats and chest beating at the village square, while entertaining spectators who did not know you were inviting anarchy into their community.


You fled like a coward the moment you sighted the army parading the streets, because you cherish your life, but continued to call on Igbo youths to come into your village to confront the Army, while you and your parents were already in safety.


Since the Igbos love to hate, Kanu is nature's punishment inflicted upon them to engulf them with sorrow, pain and misery.

/
He beat the whole security apparatus of Nigeria(Army, Navy, Airforce and even Immigration) to their games. Talk about Teflon Don. It should be a huge embarrassment to the military.

Compare that to Awolowo who chose rat poison when not a single shot had been fired.

Who is a coward?

Others are still begging DSS to release their passports yet Kanu pulled a Houdini. I don't know why I find the whole charade funny. How incompetent is the military? Thank God we have had no external aggression. Nigeria will easily be run over.
/

/
The spirit of owambe has taken control of Osibanjo.

Politicians in Nigeria are known for insensitive remarks. Sadly enough, the masses swallow the insults with pride.

/

/
Atiku owns Faro water company and his son is managing it.

Buhari owns 150 Cows company but Yusuf is in Abuja joyriding expensive bikes to his death.

Who is a leech?

Trump's children are managing his assets. What is the profession of any of Buhari's lazy children?

But then why bother? Let the losers keep fighting over their masters (Buhari and Atiku) who couldn't care less about their existence.

The sad thing is that what you are looking at is not the picture of Jesus.

Nigerian Army with their armored tanks got Kanu cornered in his house and he escaped.

And you folks want them to get Shekau? I forgot. The Shekau they had killed at least thrice already.

Boko boys will be looking at NA spokesperson as a comedian.

He could be the first victim of anti-Tithing campaign.

Followers ain't paying.
