Oh My Gosh

Where is one eediot that said the girl has gone to her boyfriend

Did someone actually say that about a missing 4 year old? Such hatred. Karma will surely reach that person.

Happy for the kid and her family.

This is a site whose people make up stories whilst sitting on the toilet. Totally discredited. Anyone visiting this site needs to have their head examined. Haba!

Demmocrats:
Bro all this your hate comment won't take us any where
Two points I want you to understand am a genius and as far as there is planet earth I can never be poor. In fee years time you will understand
We don't gain any stuff by fighting bro. One love and happy new year.

Ok ... time out ... Demmocrat or whatever you call yourself.

You are polluting this thread which would have been otherwise informative. The OP's question could apply to many other folks in perhaps not the same, but in similar circumstances and, yes, we want to learn.

Please, just bugger off! No need to start 2016 with this childishness.

To cover yansh naim fowl no dey like breeze.

The same media touting this 'Hero' are busy checking up on his credit history, personal business, immigration status etc.

In a few days ... "Bus Driver Hero has 5 Concubines", "Bus Driver's family involved in Rituals"

Truly a double-edged sword, this fame.

MrsPhyno:
Don't report her to anyone you'll just get her into trouble with her parents and then she'll hate you.

Be a responsible adult and talk to her and also don't stay alone in a room with her.
OP God is watching o

Many hormonal teens are not in full control of their impulses and emotions so it is important to guide them through this phase so they go on and become well-adjusted adults living meanigful lives. By the same token, you can easily destroy her self-confidence and totally compromise her future without knowing it by not handling it sensitively.

So, and yes, and the best way to talk to her is by making positive observations before and after asking her to not project her romantic infatuations on you ... eg,

"Laide, you are one of the most conscientious students here and you are helping me develop my career by challenging me to help you with your physics assignments. It is motivating me to become a better Teacher. I am grateful you are in my class."

"I think you have a tremendous future if you continue applying that thirst for knowledge, heaven knows Nigeria needs many bright female role models in future and yours is very bright indeed, I can see"

"It would be shame to jeopardize all of that for any romantic involvement between us even though I am honored by your affections but we both know you need to concentrate more on your studies and how I can help you achieve your goals."

"Let us set a target to make sure you get that A in Physics. Oya, let's roll our sleeves. Are you with me? No wahala."


Google - the "Criticism Sandwich"

azimibraun:
In climes where education has not failed those who acquired them, a robust counter piece will be written and published by those who feel this does not represent the truth. I am one of such individuals who will not hesitate to fire back but my hands are tied on this. The article told no lies, everything said about Ms. Ogar is true and as we all know, you cant fight the truth. You will lose. Rather than counter this piece, I will even add more to it. Ogar gambled and lost period. Unfortunately her failure or success was dependent on the the failure or success of GEJ. I hope people will learn to separate sentiments from the Job. It never pays at the latter days.

Azimibraun, check my post count, I do not often post here. I'm more of a 'lurker'. I browse the articles as a guest.

I just had to login to say, Wow!

I hope people learn from this kind of maturity.

odave, in the old days, we gathered as kids on moonlit nights to listen to stories told by elders (or just older folks). Stories that always ended up with pearls of wisdom such as has stood us in good stead in life. Respect for others is one important message we seem to have lost these days where people form their values from things that only provide ephemeral satisfaction. The urge to form "ethnic big cahuna" and lash out willy nilly on a website is one such stupidity they would have "taled-by-moonlight" out of us in those formative years. I don't know how old you are but you remind me of those who conjured up and told those stories in soft tones, but with strong messages. I only hope the 'kids' here are listening.

odave:
NL and mods..two threads makes front page now

1. The tortoise 'flaunts' something in a new picture

2. Anything that can cause e-fight between igbo and yoruba

Anything in those areas will surely make front page.

I think some force are behind spliting southern nigeria. They know how ignorant and gullible we are. I believe special op is on NL to achive that aim. That's y you see hate thread of 2010 making front page in 2015.

I don't blame anyone with tribal hatred coz its a general weakness of nigerians,( our tribe is always the best, we are the only one marginalized, the hated one etc) I only blame mods who won't stop pushing trash to front page, educative thread don't make front page no more.

To those sponsoring hate thread be it foreign or local secret service, God is watching

To those who jump from one thread whenever they see anything yoruba or igbo on NL, be wise. Not everyone in SS and SE is pro PDP and not everyone in SW is pro APC. Stop tribalizing everything

To the mods who enjoyed ppushing thrash to fp whenever they mention your name, no amount of money or traffic is worth causing chaos you can't finish

The internet oracle has spoken ... 46 years!

skullbaba:
Like I usually said we are growing, the only achievement of GEJ is signing the FOI bill which I believe is enough to question our leaders. Now it is time we use the FOI to help ourselves against Buhari adminstration. With time we will hold our leaders accountable. We are back in 1960 -1970 were we are about to 'take-off' but the military distrupt the process.

E be like say you are as excited as I am. I swear, I feel this country about to rise up from a deep slumber. Not just to do with APC / Buhari / PYO or any other jagbajantis - I just sense there is a collective will to move this country forward.

Youths are not playing this time o!

We almost lost what we got, so we cherish it more.

kristisking:
It is unfortunate you could reason this way.Take it or leave,the place of women in our country political system can not be taken by any man.We've had many men who have ruled this country,but look at the sorry state we find ourselves.For our country to make progress,women should be given opportunities to contribute to the upliftment of Nigeria.

Ride on bro, power to our Sistas!

How any nation hopes to progress while discounting the intellectual capacity of half its populace is a mystery to me.

That market woman, you know the one doing the super super mental arithmetic as she hands you your change from the Garri you just bought, could just as easily have been concocting innovative financial theorems if her path had taken a different turn.

Let us join this incomoing administration in shining the light on Latent Talent, anywhere it may be.

omonnakoda:
How old are you?

No mind am. He must be from the Indomie Generation.

I was in Boarding School then, each dormitory had South African exiles staying with us - free food, free lodgings, free education etc.

They were a bit older than us but generally nice quiet, folks I remember, obviously suffering silent traumas od being far away from home..

Elslim:
They need to go to rehab.. not drawing nah

This is part of the rehab process. I'm sure this was the intention of those that supplied the pens and paper.

You cannot move on until you confront the past, and learn (or be taught) to deal with that confrontation.


Religion is doing all it can to prove its wackiness but God, of whatever flavor, bless these kids.

It's a lie though. The so called "Scene of the Incident" picture is from a 1996 Ozone disco club fire in Qeuzon, Phillipines. Google Images is your friend.

How are we sure the rest of the story is not similarly embellished?

A lot of evil trouble-instigators abound in Nigeria and the internet has quintipled the extent to whcih they can cause mischief. They are probably silently enjoying themselves now while you continue to insult each other.

Hidentity, we live in truly dangerous times! One can only conclude that introducing these lines of division was always the preferred tatic of a desperate party bloc that has ruled for 16 years and failed to make any meaningful impact on the lives of our citizens.

The dangerous aspect is that most folks seem to have fallen for this basic propaganda. Supposedly intelligent folks.

I was shocked when my regular barber in London, whom I have known for more than 3 years and whom I considered a good acquaintance if not a friend, started blabbing angrily about 'Northern this' and 'Northern that', 'Muslim goats', 'born-to-rule mentality' while predicting 'fire and brimstone' if GEJ was not returned 'since it is awa turn'.

Jeez. This was a guy that supposedly travelled across the Sahara to get to Europe 6 years ago because Nigeria was so messed up economically, and is barely scraping above the minimum wage. He is now willing to jeopardize the future of his offsprings for some eediot politicians.

Most funny, for him, I am Nigerian with disparate ancestry including Northern origins. Needless to say, I am no longer a customer. When people get like this, it is weary to the soul and I cannot expose my impressionable young son to such vituperations.

Why we want to build walls between ourselves on the say-so of these politicians, I will never know.

Hidentity:
My dear friend, please just ignore the insult on your person and all that. Those who feel that dividing us in the line of shallow propagandas knew it would work and it is working.

It is a reflection of why we may not get it again this time. I am neither for Buhari nor Jonathan but I think a good candidate has better things to use in campaigning than things like this. Was it not a key spokesperson of the same PDP that went on insulting the woman folk by talking about his affairs with Bianca? To me, I was born a Nigerian before the categorization of tribe or religion further sets me apart. However, that first stage is what matters to me the most. I am Yoruba but I do not see anyone as Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa; I see all of us as Nigerians. That matters than any other thing. But if we lack the tolerance, foresight and strength of unity to appreciate that, I am afraid for us as a nation. I shudder at what the dungeon of divide we are digging will fetch us all. The loss won't be strict, it will be vicarious. It will outlive us and knock our children hard on the head.

I am certain that generations to come won't forgive us for choosing based on this petty propaganda at the expense of our nation. Circumstance has changed people more than sermon has.

maballack:
Looking at the pics and past pics why are most of them always either tied on thier legs or hands behind but dead....it was just an execution
Naija ----war crimes tribunal is watching o !

Thank you my brother. Reading this thread, I was thinking Nigeria had sunk fully into bestiality mode. You restored my faith.

These executions do nothing for our image as a civillized country. Justice not vengeance.

Not in my name, and certainly not in the names of loved ones I've buried since this insurgency began.

..no be photoshop oooo...dose transforma aint workin

Education is seriously required in Nigeria. Or what passes for education needs revamping.

Any electrical engineer will tell you the purpose of the outer fins on the Transformer is to maximize the surface area to allow proper cooling in the surrounding air by convection. If the transformer is not properly cooled when energized, it will overheat.

These idiots pasting stuff all over the transformer are brainless.

Like I said ... education.

The only danger he is facing is from falling down.

Those are not high tension electric wires, they are low tension (probably telecoms) wires.

Education in Nigeria sha!

melomelo:
I wonder why some people are here to write rubbish GEJ. You can never ever see any Hausa man/woman dancing for a yoruba/Igbo persons like the way our pple are killing themselves for hausas. Generation issues repeated.
Remember the past spread of political elections warriors in nigeria.

Pa Awolowo/Shagari
MKO Abiola/Bashiru Tofa
Pa Obasanjo/Pa Olufalae
Yaradua/Buhari
Jonathan/Buhari
Jonathan/Buhari now

We are on the match again. Yorubas/Igbos, we need to learn from the mistakes of the past

The only mistake we've made in the past is to give too much credence to dumb ethnic bigots like yourself. Follow this thread, everyone is talking about Buhari articulating himself very well on behalf of our nation, compared to GEJ's rubbish presentations and, to be candid, his demonstrated cluelessness in power. You enter and your instinct is to spout rubbish about ethnicity. Aren't you embarassed for yourself? Aren't you ashamed of whatever education you claim to have received?

People like you are holding the nation back and I'm only heartened that, it appears, most of our youths can see waaaaay beyond the primitive scenarios you prefer to live in. They have accesss to information far beyond the control of the politicians and *Chicken Lickens like yourself. I hope they make their own critical decisions on whom to vote for at the appoined time.


* always prone to cry that "the sky is falling" until he ended up in the Fox's stomach, capisch?

Me sha, my wife started crying when I said "the ogbono get extra draw today"

Somebody ... needs ... to ... go ... to ... jail ... for ... this.

LAWD HELP US.

lol

Rikidony:
DUDE BLAME PAST GOVERNMENT FOR NOT INVESTING IN POWER, IT TAKES TIME BUT GEJ HAVE SET THE WAY SOON THEY WILL BE CHANGES

Rikidony, FYI this development can largely actually be attributable to the persons of Obasanjo, Imoke, Bart Nnaji and Madame Due Process.

I hold no truck for any of them so hear me out ...

Obasanjo and Imoke launched the NIPP power program under which GE won a mega contract to supply the gas turbines for the various power plants. GE was also awarded the maintenance contracts for these turbines at least for the initial stages of operation. Nigeria craftily inserted a clause requiring GE to build a service facility in Nigeria to carry out servicing on heavy components (rotors & generators typically). The alternative is to ship these components to Dubai or India. I guess Imoke used his clout to ensure Calabar was designated base but IMO it makes sense from a logistical and security perspective.

Madame Due Process had her team scrub the contracts to make sure this commitment was highlighted prominently in the justification for the benefit of State Governors (who approved the NIPP because the funding came from the Excess crude Account).

With the subsequent delays and funding gra-gra during the project implementation, Bart Nnaji held GE to their commitment when additional funding discussions were held.

Believe me, GE would have gotten out of it if they could. They have dragged their feet, the facility should be operational by now.

MrsDaramola:
Femi Kuti keeps making me to wonder why he did the DNA test; there are a lot of bastards in the world today...if you doubt me, just ask your mum. Also, how could he reveal such issue in public? Omo anikulapo should have known that 'ko ki n se gbo gbo aso ni a n sa si orun'. Those innocent kids grew up to know him as their dad. What would become of the affection and love that they lived to share together? It's well! This is a big lesson for everyone of us. Good day!

The Most Trusted Tutor Agency in Nigeria ... Big Lie ...

If your Tutor Agency teaches that one should label innocent Children as Bastards through circumstances no fault of theirs, then no thanks.

And the Ministry of Education should ban your Agency, keeping you away from any Child so you don't pass on your venom.

Beautiful pictures Tochi.

Please Keep it up.

You make us very proud of "our own".

Given the level of discourse I've witnessed on this forum, I cannot be surprised there are Nigerians downplaying the sad scenes we are seeing. Truth is, we cannot emphathize with those we have comprehensively dehumanized.

"Those Northern Animals"

"Born to Rule"

"They are doing this to themselves because of GEJ"

etc


Is'okay. We understand. It is your defense mechanism to avoid the psychological upheaval that comes with confronting the truth. It also means you are dead inside withour realizing it. You kiss you wife and children with those cold, long-dead lips that spouts such inanity.

It's not when we are in the ground that we are dead; we are dead when we no longer feel the horror of our fellow humans' death.
