SportsRe: Sodiq Ajibade Wins Maiden Cycle Fest Championship by ireke(m): 9:33am On Jun 17, 2013
kayoday: The cycling athletes rigorously cycled a total of 270 kilometre stretch of road, with rainfall part of the way on the Lagos terrain, starting from the National Stadium and routing Eko Bridge - Marina - Bonny Camp - Ahmadu Bello - BarBeach - 1004 - Falomo - Bourdilon - Foreshore - 3MB - Oworoshoki - Ojota - Otedola gardens - Alausa - Awolowo Way - Allen.Opebi - Sheraton - Bank Anthony - Airport - AgegeMotorWay - Oshodi - Anthony - MaryLand - Ikorodu Road - Western Avenue and back to the Stadium.

Is this distance up to 270 km ?
I wonder too o. I think that is more like 27km.

PoliticsRe: Phone Thief Must Die By Hanging - Supreme Court by ireke(m): 3:09pm On May 23, 2013
The title is grossly misleading - the stolen phone case was just used in court to support the fact that he is a dangerous and unrepentant criminal.
-
Summary:
The guy was sentenced to death by hanging for ARMED ROBBERY.
He appealed the judgement and managed to get the sentence lifted at the Court of Appeal and he was also released.
Shortly after his release, he attacked this woman and stole the handset in question. He was caught.
This action prompted a challenge of appeal Court's decision at the Supreme court.
Supreme court upheld the initial judgement of the lower court for him to die by hanging for ARMED ROBBERY.

PhonesRe: How Useful Is Whatsapp? Please Tell Use Your Experience by ireke(m): 1:18pm On May 14, 2013
For me it was a good alternative to BBM. I don't have a BB and I don't intend to get one since I don't know of any value in it for me. So downloading Whatsapp on my smartphone is really fantastic for me.
CelebritiesRe: Overcomers Church Responds To Failed Marriage Attempt By Actor Akiyesi by ireke(m): 6:48pm On Apr 14, 2013
I don't know what went down in his marriage but the fact that the wife is currently pregnant while he is sneaking out of town to get married is very scary to me and makes me see the man as nothing but a devil.

By the way, what does the church expect from the wife? To tell one of the ushers that she wants see the senior pastor? Abeg there is no other way to settle this other than to disrupt the wedding. And disruption could not but be unruly. If she did not come with people the church would have bundled her out quietly.

I think any reasonable church should just saty clear of marrying divorced folks. let them go get married in the court and let the pastor pray for them
FamilyRe: Left-handedness In Children; Can It Be Corrected? by ireke(m): 8:52am On Apr 03, 2013
I didn't take time to go through the thread to see if this has been mentioned but studies show that forcing children to be right handed tend to take away from their "smartness". SO be careful with forcing your children to conform to your mental image. just google the effect of forcing a child to be right handed

Good and inspiring story. especially the fact that he had a choice not to step into Nigeria again but he didn't take that option.

I hope this makes front page though. I saw a similar thread but I doubt if it ever made front page. Let me put Tonto Dikeh's name so that moderators can be encouraged to push this to the front page.
Christianity EtcRe: RCCG Annual Fasting And Prayer February 2013 ( Prayer Guide) by ireke(m): 10:19am On Feb 01, 2013
Some tips on fasting:

1. First and foremost, don't lose focus on the prayer part. Pray at every opportunity. Pray under your breath even when you feel like praying and the situation is not conducive for your to kneel down or say a loud prayer.
2. Make sure you drink enough water after you break your fast. This applies especially if you do not drink water during the fast (12am to 6 or 7pm)
3. Don't eat a double ration of dinner the day before your fast. It really does not help. just eat normally
4. Don't eat your breakfast, lunch and dinner together after you break your fast. It does not help your stomach. Keep it simple.
Going against 3 and/or 4 above may lead to stomach upset or frequent visits to the loo that will sap your energy for the following day.
5. Sip water once in a while during the day. it helps to freshen your mouth especially if you keep your mouth closed for prolonged period
6. Where affordable and if you are up to it, take time to plan your food and ensure that you are still eating a balanced diet. This applies if you have been a stickler for healthy eating prior to the commencement of the fasting.
7. Don't over-exert your self if you can help it.

Please add yours.....

RomanceRe: Should A Lady Do House Chores For Her Fiance? by ireke(m): 1:03pm On Dec 03, 2012
I don't think she's under any obligation to do it but it's not a bad idea.
On one hand it helps all to see/know that she can take care of a home. on the other hand, a guy that consistently needs her fiancee's help to take care of dirty pile of plates in the kitchen, or regularly messy bathroom/bedroom is an indication that he is not able to stand alone without a woman. The wife should not complain if he refuses to lift a finger to assist her in house chores after marriage.

Anyway marriage is more than doing house chores o.
CultureRe: Using The Toilet Compared To Life, Notice In An Office: Your Reaction? by ireke(m): 7:37am On Nov 30, 2012
francis247: So? man must sh1t. like seriously, one who is pressed would make a u-turn because of that? btw who would leave a public toilet dirty when the means of ensuring cleanliness is readily available?]
many people o. Big men wey nor dey wait to check if their s.hit is all gone after flushing before leaving the toilet. Big men wey go spray (with brown sh.it)the edges of the white porcelain in an office toilet without making any attempt to remedy it. I am talking of guys that work for a multinational fortune 500 company o. Sometimes I just think those people are not mentally balanced sha, because I can't imagine myself leaving my sh.it for someone else to see when I'm not sick.
FamilyRe: Questions For Married Men by ireke(m): 1:20pm On Nov 26, 2012
1. Yes
2. Yes but No. For example, I take care of long term issues and big ticket items, while her salary takes care of daily/monthly feeding.
3. Yes. That is what it means to be a father/husband
4. Help me, assist is any way she could. after that, all we can do is commit it into God's hands
5. I lead by example so I try apologize when I know I was wrong.

Foreign AffairsRe: More Photos Of Hurricane Sandy's Devastation by ireke(m): 7:29am On Nov 01, 2012
knowledge4: Jesus, I thank you that hurricanes do not happen in Nigeria.
However, we have our own share of disasters too - religious wars,B.H,election riots,fuel riots,border clashes,floods etc.
If 5% of the magnitude of Hurricane Sandy had occurred in any part of Nigeria,how would we have coped in a nation where it takes about 24 hours to respond to a plane crash? I hope the Nigerian government and our armchair emergency services can learn a lesson from this disaster.
Jesus, I thank you.
We have our own share/type of natural disaster in our Leadership.
FamilyRe: Things A Man Should Do For His Wife All The Time (Part 1) by ireke(m): 7:14am On Nov 01, 2012
tintingz: LMFAO! grin can you show me where Jesus wash a woman's feet, carry her, hug her, cook for her, go to farm for her, buy things for her etc in that your bible. . .since Jesus is a bachelor all his life time how can i get a marraige/family example from him, how do i know the way i should treat my woman from him. . .the muslims knows better in family guides(respect for women) than the christians do
Te Bible enjoins husbands to love their wives like JESUS loved the CHURCH and gave himself for her, to sanctify (clean) her with the washing of the water by the word (Ephesians 5:25-26). The giving of himself for the church (I believe) encompasses this list and more.

(Christian) Husbands are supposed to act like Jesus, yet few do. of course no one is perfect and no husband can perfectly model the behaviour of Christ. The problem however is that many husbands really have no clue how they are supposed to act or what they are supposed to do. Unfortunately, even many women do not know how they ought to be treated.

LiteratureRe: The Pain Of Pleasure - A Must Read For Every Lady And Her Boyfriend. by ireke(m): 7:01am On Aug 08, 2012
Kayuzze1: pretty good man.. Check out yourself and your friend now.. Did reading of those 'motivational' books put you far ahead of your friend nw? One thing i learnt from all this books is that it makes people want to pattern their life alongside that of the author.. Dont get me wrong people, I am not against people reading inspirational or motivational books, but it is not a pre-requisite to acheiving something great.. Instead, your utmost desire to achieve should come first, and making sure you maximize your God's given skills,ability,talent and potential... Once you put this in place, I bet the sky will be your startin point...ponder!
Funny enough, most people will not read motivational books if they do not have the desire to achieve success via maximizing their God's given skils... Like some put it "All readers are not leaders, but all leaders are readers".
LiteratureRe: The Pain Of Pleasure - A Must Read For Every Lady And Her Boyfriend. by ireke(m):
Quote - ebamma: seminars,and e-books,are sometimes a waste of time and money,the greatest inspiration a man can have is his will to achieve something.

"Experienece is the best teacher". What they don't tell you is that it is often very expensive (and sometimes disastrously late) to learn from your own experience. I assure you that it is more fun to learn from other people's experience. Reading and attending seminars help you to achieve just that.
