 Health › Re: Benefits And Effects Of Cups Of Coffee A Day by Jarus(m): 11:08pm On Oct 20, 2012 |
I take coffee at work purposely to enjoy one of the benefits outlined up there, but the problem is I add too much milk, and sometimes sugar(when there is no honey) that I doubt whether the health benefit I seek to gain has not been eroded. |

solbil: ghana vs naija is not the biggest rivalry on the continent. Its cameroon vr naija. Get it straight!Actually, to Ghanaians, it is Nigeria/Ghana. But Nigeria hardly reckons with that, they see Cameroun as their biggest rivals. Cameroun, having beaten us 3 times in final, are our biggest rival. Nigeria-Cameroun is the biggest rivalry in African football, followed by Nigeria-Ghana. Nigeria-South Africa also used to be big game, especially since they ruled Africa when Nigeria was absent in 1996 and 1998 AFCONs, and felt theyhad arrived. But we hjave since put them in their place, beating them 2-0(Tijani Babangida) in 2000 AFCON and 4-2 or so in 2004 AFCON, plus beating them home and away in one qualifiers couple of years back. SA and Nigeria is no longer a big game. Senegal also used to be our serious rival, eliminating us in 2002 AFCON semis. But we have also gone past them and hardly in same class again. Nigeria-Ghana and Nigeria-Cameroun are the real, enduring, historical rivals. |

solbil: sentiments apart. I think nigeria will take the day especially if mikel becomes more prominent on the pitch. The guy has the ability to control the game and that ability, if brought to the fore, can make the ball move smoothly to precisely locate other players therefore making the game simple for the super eagles and difficult for the opponent.Yaya Toure, a better midfielder than Mikel, is coming to NC o. Tiote and others. |

| Webmasters › Re: How Can Nairaland Or Any Other Nigerian Website Supplant The Big 4 In Nigeria? by Jarus(m): 11:50am On Oct 20, 2012 |
Being the most visited Nigerian website is enough achievement. Efforts should be to maintain that position. I don't see it overtaking any of those big 4. Linkedln, currently below NL, is a website Seun should watch out for and fend off ovetaking him. Maybe NL can outwit , that seems achievable, but those Top 6, it's a tall order. |

Sweetnecta: @Bindex, etc and Pastor AIO: Allah has allowed primarily the disbelievers [and even the hypocrites] to the whims of the devils; satan and his legions. The effect could be as obvious as disbelieving in God [His Existence, making Him a tribal God or multiple head God, or even having representatives, like idols, etc] and as confusing as in being possessed by jinn.Sweetnecta, pls explain your last paragraph to me? Specifically, do you believe in Jinn possession I.e jinn entering human body? |

| Properties › Re: Building In Nigeria: Lessons Learned by Jarus(m): 4:24pm On Oct 18, 2012 |
I started out with teh intention of doing a small 3-bedroom as countryhome in my hometown, but the architect(who doubles as project supervisor) expanded the project beyond my initial plan dna budget - 3 bedroom, and 2 semi-detached 2-room BQ. Took longer than I planned and budget tripled. Still never finish it but after quarelling with my architect for expanding it beyond plan, I am happy he did. I discussed it here. https://www.nairaland.com/784501/building-house-kwara-state-journal#9367444 Other lesson point: 1, Just start, with as little money as you have 2, It is hardly possible that some people wont swindle you, you can only minimise it 1 Like |

afam4eva: You're right. When you talk about activist and defenders of democracy, it is Ife. The average graduate of Ife is a maverick.And I also think Ife products have teh most sense of solidarity. They have this way of identifying with one another and with their school anywhere. On a lighter note, we rule Nairaland: Seun, Dayokanu, TKB417, CyberG, Jarus, Spikedcylinder, Eastbay, pcicero etc.  1 Like |

Ife also used to have the biggest array of quality teachers. Wole Soyinka won his Nobel prize as an Ife lecturer. Professors Oluponna and Biodun Jeyifo (both the only tenured Nigerian profs in Harvard) were former Ife lecturers before teh brain drain of the 80's to 90's. |

I am a proud product of Ife, but I concede this is between ABU and UNN. The reason why this is so is because while almost everybody that mattered in the North went to ABU, almost everybody that matters in the east also went to UNN, but the West has UI, Ife and Unilag, three universities to share its own. Between 60's to 80's, everyone from the East and North dreamt of UNN and ABU respectively, while Ife, Lag and UI shared that of the West. This is not absolute, as I am aware that there are many Yorubas that schooled in ABU in particular and UNN too, and vice versa for other regions, but it explains teh situation to a very large extent. 6 Likes |

eastman11: Let the Sultan use the Ed-el-Kabir festival to strongly condemn religious violence and Boko activities and start a campaign for religious tolerance. His inability to use his position as head of muslems to speak out against killings by Boko makes him an accomplice.Maybe you expect him to carry megaphone and come to the front of your house before you know he has been condemning BH and religious intolerance in general. If you don't listen to the news, then that is your problem. Google is your friend still. Google 'Sultan condemns boko Haram/religious violence' and see what comes out. Some people sef. Or you expect him to carry gun and go battle BH himself before you know he condemns it. 4 Likes |
