Rapmoney: Sincerely speaking, my Nigerian brothers are falling my hands big time!!!
Often times, I hear people (including the male folks!) Saying 'young women that are successful in their respective careers and probably drive cars are no-go area!' That's a huge sign of inferiority complex and an exhibition of shallow mentality!
Is it really an exclusive right for men only to be successful and own cars? Why do we have young women schooling or learning a trade? Is it not to be successful in their chosen careers? Do we expect these women to subject themselves to lack and poverty?
Today, most Nigerian ladies who are successful and unmarried are normally seen as a no-go area for men. They label such women as disrespectful and not submissive under wrong assumptions! This clearly shows a poor mentality of the male folks!!!
Nigerian guys need to live above this poor mentality and accept the fact that becoming successful is not an exclusive right of the male folks...success is all encompassing and can be attained by anyone, irrespective of gender!
Please, feel free to share your views.
Peace!
/ Because of the nature of the Nigerian society, how many young and single ladies drive cars that they bought on their own legal hard work considering the prevalence of local runs and Dubai runs? Inferiority complex is only one of many reasons such ladies are avoided like plagues. Again, there are some exceptions.
A lot of guys are erring on the side of caution. That's all.
Nollywood movies are not helping the matter as well---psychological programming.
It is either she is a runaway teenager who got caught up in a bad situation or trauma from her experience has messed up her brain.
Her story does not make any sense at all: Aja, ijebu- Lekki, Alaba, Libya and at no point did she make any attempt to contact the house from where she left for school? Or to even contact any of her school friends? I don't believe the story as told. \
AlexReports: Photos of controversial Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh and Abuja popular social media reporter Alex Nwankwo recently hit the internet.
According to reports, it was taken during her visit to the capital city with her record Label Boss, Dbanj. DB Records were hosted by several Abuja clubs and the Nairalander "alexreports" was on ground for exclusive coverage.
It was indeed a close shot as the picture shows Tonto taking the shot herself....the questions begging for answers are?
Are they friends? Is it just normal celebrity picture tinz or is she a blog visitor to his site?
cap28: In some jurisdictions ie the UK a defendant can state that their spouse's sexual infidelity caused them to commit murder, even if they did not actually witness the infidelity. Other factors have to have contributed to push the defendant to comitt murder though.
Check the link below where a man murdered his wife during an argument and was able to rely on the fact that she had taunted him by giving him graphic details about how she had had sex with five different men. He murdered her and claimed that he lost control. A jury was directed to consider the woman's sexual infidelity which resulted in the defendant's acquittal.
cap28: A crime of passion can occur as a result of long term emotional abuse that has built up over time. This woman was subjected to a catalogue of abuse over a 10 year period: she was abused by the husband whilst pregnant and cheated on. These things leave emotional scars that do not go away, women have very long memories when they feel they have been treated badly.
Her mistake was to carry on with the marriage whilst harbouring hatred for the man, hatred that has been allowed to fester for many years will eventually erupt into extreme violence.
/ Crime of passion as used in court of law is a technical term just like plea of insanity. You misunderstood the whole concept. Crime of passion has to do with sudden impulse of rage that can arise when a husband walks into his wife being boinked by a stranger in their matrimonial bed. But If the husband walks away and kills the wife later (even though it has to do with love/passion), it becomes first degree murder and defense attorneys dare not bring up crime of passion as defence.
CFCfan: The man was a jerk in cheating on his wife, but killing him was not the right solution. She could have filed for divorce.
Now, by being charged for 1st degree murder, she could either be facing a death sentence, or life imprisonment. But as this was a crime of passion, the prosecutors should have charged her with voluntary manslaughter because there is no evidence so far that shows she planned the murder days, or even hours, in advance. In other words, it would be difficult for the DA to prove beyond every reasonable doubt that the killing was premeditated.
/ This is premeditated murder and does not fall under the category of "crime of passion" since she did not walk into the room to find her.husband and some lady in the act. It was planned. And when the opportunity presented itself, she struck. First degree murder case is what she will get. /
It looks like Dr. Ariyo has gone into hiding. The office is claiming that he hasn't worked there since 2002. I just spoke to them.
We are reaching out to the Congressman representing his district. Next line of action will be Washington D.C. / I will be offline for some time. Time to concentrate full time on this Dr. Ariyo saga.
If you or any of your immediate family member(s) died in Lagos anytime during the last election in Nigeria AND you are from East of the Niger, send your story with pictures to my pm.
Dr. Aroyo will be held accountable for full compensation to victims.
jmoore: You know some folks are gullible, especially when they are not good in mathematics. They hardly make use of common sense.
2 Trillion Naira is 10billion dollars. Quack journalists who don't know their numerals.
"The 2012 US presidential race was the most expensive in history, as President Obama and Republican rival Mitt Romney topped $2 billion in combined fundraising, the final campaign tallies show."
/ N2trn = $10bn
Missing fund from NNPC = $20bn.
Other unaccounted looted funds exist too. Some looted years back in preparation for the elections.
The stolen $20bn was not in the budget anyway.
Yes. It is possible that N2trn was wasted in bribery in the last election. Some people smiled to the banks. 419 has different levels. GEJ is a learner. It is a clear case of mugu fall, guy man chop. GEJ na the biggest mugu/mgbada of all time.
Tell me anywhere in the world where guy man go let mugu wey dey drop wella go like that. That's why they dropped the TAN format on GEJ. GEJ dropped well well. No mind all these riff-raff TANoids on NL that only got recharge cards and N15k for all their efforts.
Somewhere in Nigeria after the elections, the REAL TANOIDS are going like this:
asadike: What! Pekele pekele, arugbo je gbese, ta lo san? I have always known that jonathan's cabinet is filled with betrayers. people that don't give a hoot about him. Some wished him failure albeit secretly, while some were for buhari and pretending to work for uncle joe at d same time. The hand writing was written all over d wall, but uncle joe is just too trusting too notice.
/ It is not betrayal.
What planet is Jonathan living?
There is no love in Nigeria as far as politics is concerned.
People are in it to make money and that's why the are called AGIP.
lalasticlala: Dbanj and Congolese singer, Fally Ipupa performed at a closed session for the staff of World Bank which also had the president of the global institution, Jim Yong Kim in attendance.
Fally posted the pictures and captioned it :

DaGC: He was active in carrying out his duty constitutionally through out his tenure. He just wasn't publicized much like now. If he had mastered the use of the media like Fashola or Akpabio, Nigerians might have seen more of him. These men will throw a bash with press present to commision street lights whereas many other governors don't.
Apart from the BH menace, which is not entirely his fault because it took quite a long while to restock the armed forces. Even the once depleted air force can now boast of over 200 aircraft and drones. As far as corruption goes, its not his job constitutionally. That belongs to the NPF, ICPC, EFCC and the courts.
He had lots of good policies and truly carried out a lot of infrastructural projects more than any Nigerian leader since 1960, but many Nigerians were not satisfied, thus the result of the just concluded election.
/ And whose fault is it? I hope you are not insinuating that GEJ performed but is clueless? That will be a terrible thing to say. \
Some smart Alecs probably must have gone to Shoprite to scan the location of items they want in case of incasity make e no be say e and person go begin drag items.
Shekau singlehandedly proved that Jonathan is a dunce. Just like SA is burning and every president is spitting fire, did Jonathan make a statement? No! That's your hero.
The same lacklustre approach he used on the Chibok saga. GEJ doesn't know any better and the sooner he gets out of the way, the better.
I keep imagining if GEJ had scrambled the air force, keep the army moving just to prove that Chibok was a hoax, his ratings would have been very high everywhere. Instead he went dancing and jubiliating in a birthday party.
Such insensitivity to humanity deserves corporal punishment. All I can say is --good riddance to rubbish. /
LagosDecides15: It is about the differences in casualties on both sides. We will see how ibos in Lagos will a siege, with lagoon and Atlantic Ocean as the only way out.
Everyone of u will be roasted like suya meat. Better focus on the thread and leave Yoruba alone.
/ The issue is that you are a bona fide coward.
You are not man enough to get things popping off.
That's why you are waiting for real men to act.
I am done with you.
I have a lot of progressive Yoruba folks to mingle with not a minion and loser in life like you.
