₦airaland Forum

Yes, I'm proud of being black.

Where are the Ade Bendels and Ezegos of yesteryears? A word is enough for the wise

emyah:
"I,………, do solemnly swear/affirm that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to the Federal Republic of Nigeria and will preserve and defend the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, So help me GOD" Nowhere did I see So help me Sango! Is this man going to serve only sango adherents? Is this man now a minister under the 1999 Constitution?

To be continued.

Struggling to understand this post. tell me how it's related to this thread or I get it off

Noted.

Something is being done about him already. I have retitled his threads, and he may have a date with the banning authorities.
Pls use the complaint thread to express your concerns/advice next time.
Many thanks.
Thread locked.

UPDATE
Insha Allah, the programme will start by 6PM as planned.
If you're coming from a far location, pls leave home early.
Haboosa will be on ground to receive everybody, while I will also try to be around as early as possible.
You can call Haboosa for direction.


A brother who said he may not be able to attend, Igbalajobi, has dropped 3,000 as a contribution to the programme. Pls let's not forget to pray for him and his family.

Surely not intentional

I was trying visiting NVS some hours ago and I couldn't

Reall reading about Da Rocha some years ago as a feature story in, I think, Guardian then, but never knew he was the first Nigeria's millionaire.
We know new things everyday.

pcicero:
Ribadu in ACN? Tinubu's party? Well, strange things happen in Nigerian politics.

Hmmnnnn, this is a loaded insight o

@ Jarus

Please how can I reach you?

If it's private I will PM you my mobile no and email addy.
If its NL-related, let me have your complaint in the 'Complaint' thread.

Barka Jum'ah.
Too bad I gatecrashed to mosque

Ess:
How far with Kano, it seems the numbers aint moving! Muhsin, Bibs and Chakula any ideas?

Muhsin & Chakula have confirmed their inevitable unavailability. So I'm not sure the Kano edition can hold again.

How far with the Abuja brothers?

This coming from Hollandis, I'm disappointed.
A forum is meant to accomodate every shade of opinions - the reasonable, the outright foolish, the in-between, the funny, the jejune, the genius etc
If somebody comes here and campaigns for IBB, he will be welcome, as will be for any other person.
I'm pro-Ribadu, as is my co-Mod, Aisha2, I don't know Seun's inclination but I doubt he's for IBB. Even if he supports IBB, he's entitled to that.

IBB's presidential bid is perhaps the hottest political topic in town, and homepage is about hot topics.

On NL, we'll continue to accomodate all shades of opinion without bias.

If you had been civil in your titling, like IS SEUN SUPPORTING IBB?, then I could have left the thread open for discussion, but with such an insultive caption and post, I can't help locking this thread.

I'm actually not guaranteeing a faultless performance from Ribadu, but of all the candidates being bandied around, he is by miles the best to me. I will register, vote and campaign for him.

DK,
Ju CV yen si official email mi

@ current topic,
The only subordinate I have is a female,  and we relate even on unofficial level. I boss over her jokingly, like asking her to give me '10 reasons why I should not sack her for spending more time on break', as if I can sack . She knows I'm joking. I have even introduced her to NL, although she was an inactive member before joining our company, but I restrict her coming to NL and browsing in general.  She's very hardworking and meticulous, and I doubt if I can get that from a guy. Now, we relate beyond official level to the extent some colleagues are already asking whether we had known one another pre-here. I personally like a relaxed office environment, with joking, discussing politics,etc by the way. So I relate with everybody formally and informally and I'm enjoying it.

Over all, I prefer having ladies work with me, especially as subordinate. As peer, I prefer them too. As boss, well the only direct female oga I have had was in my former company and she was a great woman, but I can't generalize.

dayokanu:
jarus,

Mo jeri e. You be correct guy. I used to moan that I couldnt get a 1st class but when I saw your qualities, I knew why.

aahhh, bros e no mata o, sometimes it's a burden really, cos people expect a lot from you, as if u're not human. Some people even expect u to know everything, forgetting that one is still a Bsc holder only, not a Prof.

wa sere pady mi

ill forward the CV to you . . . . . can you push an entry level person too? abi strictly experienced people

nice one man. Greatest Ife
u think say i no know wetin i dey do when i decided to live in Nigeria

Entry level could be a little difficult given the fact that we have an annual route for fresh grads which has been done for 2010 already, but if well packaged, like few months experience somewhere, could be considered

And btw, why is it that its only when a Muslim makes comment that you look at it from religious prism? Some people sef

@Krendo,
I have actually gone past replying to petty issues like that, but for those who may your post seriously, I can afford to waste my time to reply.
I support Ribadu, not because he's a Muslim, but simply because I admire his patriotic zeal. In 1999, even though I haven't reach voting age,I supported Falae, a southern Christian. In 2003 & 2007, I siddon look because I didn't believe in the system. With a little hope from the current INEC, I decided to vote for the first time, and incidentally one of the few Nigerians I admire is contesting. And FYI, Buhari appears more Muslim that Ribadu but he doesn't have my support.
Pls grow

And FYI, I'm a Ribadu fan, which I'm entitled to, but will not use mod priviledge to the detriment of anbody, IBB inclusive.

Nothing wrong in criticizing a leader but having a screaming curse as title or thread subject is my problem with that thread.
Like the thread in question, this thread too is destined for the bin as soon as I put on my system.
And you risk ban.

For the first time in my life, I'm going to vote because of Ribadu. Not only that, will actively campaign and mobilize for him within my own little capacity.
