From CNN? No! I don't believe anything from those shiits anymore

Being in Nigeria and seeing how this foreign media BBC, CNN, ALJAZEERA reports news makes me begin to doubt about what they report in other lands, wars in middle East, African conflicts etc.

I hate any Nigerian company that advertise on these channels, if I had my way they should be black out

I now understand
SA should know that they have more to lose than Nigeria in any case of diplomatic clash, however, I don't think Jonathan will do anything drastic at least till after the elections.
Remember him saying that a new (style of) administration will be in Nigeria from next year.

Brother tell us the full story, give intending guys like us your experience so that we learn.
What happened

KIRIJI: Goodluck Jonathan is the grand commander of the federal republic and commander in chief of the armed forces NOT shettima

Your father planned the kidnapped of your sister and you are here crying Goodluck is C-in-C because he suppose dey come command your backyard for you.
When militants kidnapped oyibo, na Yar'Adua bin come released them or na the Niger Delta governors bin work towards the release.

As for me and my family and everybody wey dey our estate, na Goodluck we dey vote till 2019

She called you a dirty clay and you are still looking for advice, let me drive that demon of bad attractions from you

egopersonified: If only we would listen and learn, but like they say, experience is the best teacher.

Exactly, some 27 to 33 yrs old lady is somewhere regretting the things and decisions she made (not sticking with that guy, not holding herself during school, not being content, not marrying when someone came just because some richer guys are still pursuing you etc). But the young ones even from secondary school are in a haste to be the big girl and believes that they are wiser.

Confession Time
I remember meeting a girl who was so dedicated to a medical student who was from her state but had graduated from school, she was so beautiful and every guy wanted her. I became interested in her department because of her and drew closer to her, she also took me into confidence, it began to look like friendzone so I devised a strategy, I 'backslided' and the game plan worked, she became concerned and offered her time to help me back to normal life , I started taking her out of her comfort zone, we went out to nice places other than school , she later confess that the reason she didn't want a bf or relationship was her fear of emotional breakdown not necessarily because of that guy , I capitalized on that and promised her true love, deep inside me i just wanted to be the one among the guys that finally 'got there'. Unfortunately she believed all the lies.
To cut the long story short, when I finished my program, out of sight was out of mind. She had earlier broken up with the doctor (yea he became a doctor). I met her on social network earlier this year and we got chatting, she said after me, she had been with 3 other guys before meeting the present one that is already making plans to marry her. And she told me something which broke my heart, she said, 'if I didn't came to her at that time, she would have been married now to that doctor' and she regretted it and most especially being with such number of guys before being with her husband . It got me thinking because before then, for me I thought we had fun but for her, her destiny was taken off course

If he didn't sack you, it means he believes that you are not using your potential well, proof him wrong

Rich words

Nothing changed

The Nigerian Police should just shut up, if someone published a report and 80% of the readers agree with it, why the childish tantrums instead of letting the public vindicate you if actually you have address any of the issues raised

And the girl na mumu to be pass around by a man

And btw, do you know what is APN and how to change it?

It is really a shame, journalist are now waiting for press releases and rumours.

As in people dey poke their wife everyday?
No wonder they easily become bored, cos they are not exploring other healthy activities

The flow is for a few days for god's sake, it shouldn't be something to make the housemaid scared or provide revenue to ashawos.

For me, it is better to learn how to handle argument than to avoid arguments in marriage / relationship.
We learn a lot about someone when they are emotionally tipped.

. Checking my name

I give up

Fresh Air till 2019, now bring that serial failure of a general to be beaten yet again

The world would be so boring without those mumu girls, imagine every girl wise up going for the good guys, who will take them to club or give them mind blowing sex.

The world is getting smaller bro.
My principle has always been, if I am fed up with someone, I have to ensure that my last dealing or meeting with him/her ended on a good note, you may never know where you will meet again.
Get that letter drafted and delivered

For those of you shouting Russia, remember Russia is technically under sanctions and as allies to US (somehow) Nigeria is not expected to get some of this things through easily.
China is what I don't understand, maybe there is a hidden clause that Nigeria doesn't like.

US has consistently said that it is not selling lethal arms to Nigeria, all it can offer are helicopter for transport (sic).
And I believe Nigeria didn't want to wire the money so as to avoid the watchful eyes of the US NSA, people underestimate the grip US has on global financial transactions, when Jonathan said that it is their money and 'America will know' people were laughing.

I believe SA had to do what they did to avoid the wrath of US

hardbody: I have nothing against the NA but my question is, as trained as the NA is, if we are struggling this much with a rag tag boko haram almajari, how can we cope in an international engagement with a fellow country with another trained army in a cross boundary warfare? In the event of a real war with neighbouring countries, wont they overwhelm us in a matter of days?

No
If for instance, Cameroun declare war on us, we will know that it is Cameroun vs Nigeria and the army will move to cripple their key infrastructure forcing them to surrender.
What we have in Boko Haram is like you said rag tag insurgents, you kill them, North would say you are committing genocide, you declare state of emergency, opposition say you want to cripple political structure to have an easy ride.
Even someone that is dreaming of being a president is advocating Amnesty for them, they have no logical predefined motive, no stronghold and mixing with civilians makes it much tougher.
The enemy outside your home is easier to handle than the enemy within your home

Getting worse

omenka: Haba bros!! You sabi lie ooo!!! How can you tell us you typed "determine" and auto-correct added a "d" to it?? Haba now!!!

jmaine: Olodo, if you have ever use a windows phone with it's predictive feature, it does happen . . . . A little vigilance to notice the extra 'D' added would have sufficed on my end . . . .
Only slow hacks dwell on minor spelling error like now "Naw" to claim intellectual superiority . . . . .

Omenka sorry
