Why do Nigerians call universities, school? I know Americans do (Trump loves the poorly uneducated ), but that's not the English/British legacy. Is it?

British legacy indeed. Why didn't the British who moved to the American colony keep their "British" legacy? Why did they have to formulate a new one? You forget how important identity is. It's only in africa that we take pride in being more a replica of western culture than ours. Let's forge our own legacy

why is she regreting? if she was too social she wouldnt have made the good grade she made nau.As for me i dont regret being not too social when i was in school cos in a place like ekpoma everywhere is flying with dangerous cultist.u could be attending one party and the two guys will be having arguement and the next thing guns and matchetes will be flying.i remember the story of a girl who was doing her youth service in ilorin and came to ekpoma to celebrate her boyfriend who graduated as a doctor and in the party two cult guys got into an arguement and it lead to an armed confrontation and the poor girl got hit by a stray bullet and died.i did attend some few celebrations but i was not a party freak.

I remember that time. I lost a course mate and another guy who I'd known during my earlier years in school. The latter was a Medical student. It's so sad that he died just months away from being a fully fledged doctor.

Greenvaiper:
She has even become more useful to her family in death than when she was alive. Nice one

How the Bleep do you know that? Because her death raised money? Think about her kids. Could all the money in the world replicate the love and affection of their biological mother? Do you think her kids would be completely okay knowing they'll never see their mother again? You're really unfortunate for your comment. Poverty has destroyed your sense of reasoning. Money can never make up for the life of a human being, not even one that's paralyzed neck down. Get it through your fucking thick skull! What nonsense!

OMG! Slay queens of this age are really dumb. So after almost getting a brain aneurysm trying to think up a response, this was the best she could come with? What has saggy balls gotta do with anything
I don't see men trying to showcase their balls in public. Following girls like these is guaranteed to kill your brain cells faster than they could be replaced. Bleep outta here!

SLAP44:
See beautiful design.

God really excelled with his creations.

That was the first thing i noticed man. Looks like something that should be on some vintage shirt

OP asked a simple question, and ppl are just going off point like idiots

Well, as for me, I'd say hushpupi rocked it better. Because his stature really complimented the clothing, more so than Ronaldo's. And his darker complexion i think, was also a factor. This is one of the few instances where having a larger body holds the advantage.

Forgot to add... Those glasses Ronaldo's wearing are fucking hideous! He looks like "Mandark of Dexter's laboratory"

OLDESTWARRIBOY:
Hunger bad o and common sense no still common

See people papa wey no go hustle dem dey here dey find free fish

Tinubu and Ambode no try atall

Bros it's not hunger, it's just a bad habit that we've developed. Nigeria could be a paradise tomorrow, but without strong measures against such acts people would still do it. We just love making excuses

enemachris:
Edo girls, na their way, very useless.

And where you come from ladies are saints, right? Idiot!

we are the Giant of Africa will are gonna bounce back...

You meant bounce "backwards" right?

joseph1832:
Well if he's found guilty let him do the time.

Come to think of it, I wonder why these fraudsters tend to always be the loudest on social media and even outside social media.

I mean since you know you don't earn your money in a legitimate way, you should hide yourself and live a coded life. But no, not these guys.

Anyway let him face the full wrath of the law and let him continue living the fabulous life in detention until the judge decide.

Social media has turned most ppl to bitches. People think everyone else should care what they do with their lives. Very soon even secret agents would start "self-snitching"

Corporate2020:
Tinubu never lost a political battle unlike Buhari and his gang who were serial losers before Tinubu came to their aid. Even Obasanjo that humiliated Buhari severally before Tinubu came to his aid. That Obasanjo fears Tinubu. The whole Afenifere council of useless Elders that ganged up with Obasanjo against Tinubu were humiliated and disgraced single handedly by Tinubu.

Tinubu humiliated and disgraced Reno Omokirikiri's benefactor, so what do you expect from such a bitter nincompoop?

Just watch the Jagaban's next move. He talks less but he is a ruthless political strategist.

Why all the dick sucking? How has all these political shenanigans helped your life

Unigrad:
Ize Iyamu e-rats should come wail oooo. Dey have been turned to wailers. Edo State is going to end godfatherism in Nigeria. My PVC is ready to vote in Governor Obaseki.
PA ehimen and co will suffer from high blood pressure from reading this news.

End godfatherism and then introduce "cabal-ism" Or do you think Obaseki would old sway over the powers that put him there? I just pity Nigerians. At the end of the day they'll still settle themselves with our commonwealth. I don't know what we practise over here, but it's certainly not democracy.

FuckTheWorld:
Which kain Calabar NONSENSE be dis?

E for better make Una carry all those muscles go work for factory instead of wasting it on a music like this

Haha... Guy you wicked i swear... Me never even hear the song

All these people wey dey like post these things can smoke weed ehn

This blm is already getting annoying

Bros I'm sick of it to be honest.

A Book of Remebrance in Heaven has been opened on the young man ..

I Hear IMO state Governor is also on His Matter!

Life is not by Struggle!

When GOD opens your Matter, kings and Queens will fight and Rush to be your Nursing Father and Mother....

#WaitPaitentlyInTheLord

It's become clear to me that you're very delusional.

ogascomax:
You are not of us, you are never part of us. Who ask you to defend him, you don't defend a Pastor you defend the gospel. I am not sure that you are a Christian because your Christianity is under attack. If you don't repent you may not like your end. I am not cursing you but telling you that your Christianity has a fundamental problem. Your Christianity is a disaster and a disgrace to we Christians. Many of you are pagans not Christians because you are speak as one. You don't even speak with scripture but just to talk without God guiding you... Just imagine Jesus afraid of virus. Many of you are here explaining the danger of virus... You are very terrible.

This is the problem I've got with many Christians like you. And that's that "you don't know your place!" You're not Jesus Christ as much as you aspire to be, you'll always have shortcomings. The fact that you know you ought be or act a certain way doesn't mean you can. I don't see anything wrong in obeying international guidelines of health care professionals. They still have their place in the world and in Christ, many of them are Christians too, so what's all the fuss about?

There's a lesson to be learned from possessing all the power in the world(in christ) but still being very limited in another sense. But we like to delude ourselves with the view that we ought to have this super human persona and it's just not realistic. And considering how flawed we are, it could be a dangerous thing to possess. Use your common sense bros

adefemi007:
Rape case again

So I went to visit a family and their little daughter came to greet me and sat on my laps. Immediately I returned her to the chair and warned her never to do that to me again or any other person be it male or female. Some other persons might have other intentions towards her act simple act

So who'd be the one responsible for their intentions? The little girl? You just overreacted bros. And scared off a naive girl who probably still doesn't know what all the fuss was about. I don't know how young she is, but i do know that there's a certain age where it's totally harmless. Telling a little girl that her actions would always be responsible for igniting men's sexual interests ain't appropriate either. That could end up doing more harm than good, depending on how she interprets it. You might end up giving her a wrong impression of men in general and create fear. Of course, if she's at the age she where she could be seen as sexual and mature enough, then there's no problem.

MASTERCHIEF0847:
Between these two men they stole enough money to put a million youth out of poverty but watch how the same youth abuse each other because of same men.

Very sad... But never expect the vast majority to always act sensibly. Wisdom is for the few

Oga we know! Go back to Benfica abeg. E yaff do

roundman:
And this is coming from a government that does not provide water for the people, interesting.

You mind the idiots?

Gotv na Bastard

thesicilian:
At times it's not safe to drive yourself if you have so much on your mind.
Besides having a driver is not always a status symbol, sometimes it's just a matter of convenience for very busy people.

You mind the guy? Some people just think everything a billionaire does is some smart money move

JenniferAkpamu:
Let us strive to mimic the good, not the crass and uncultured.

phemmyfour

There's nothing uncultured about it. It's just an urban and contemporary alternative to formal English. There are alot of respectable and intelligent people who speak like that. Let us learn to accept variety

JenniferAkpamu:
Ehhhhh!!! Imagine the guts.

See the rubbish he is even writing: "you was begging me".

And this dog looking vagabond is supposed to be people's role model. Anyone that calls himself or herself a Marlian is supposed to apologise to their parents and refund all the money spent on their head. Nonsense.

Madam it's called "Ebonics". That's how blacks in america speak. "Ain't" nothing wrong with that

Kingscee:
Hmmmmm, I fear Oyibos ooooo taking their lives anyhow, even with the hardship and poverty that's hurting me here and there I can never take my precious life, the life is too expensive before God Almighty

Depression isn't all about hardship, atleast not a financial one. It might the hope of one day overcoming hardship that is keeping many Nigerians alive, don't be suprised. I wish he got help, but once you're depressed it's very difficult to.

Rgade:
Next up, universities.
Ganduje, you have done well, the gods are pleased.
We are even considering overlooking your babariga dollar disappearing stunt.

That's why we are in this current mess. Beacuse many of us are willing to overlook gross misconduct for paltry palliatives. We are always too quick to forget! I don't know who cursed us with such a shortcoming.

This generation is becoming annoying. In this age of information, everyone has become some smartass relationship expert. You would think things would be better for it, but that's not the case. People would even want their whole lives laid out to them if it were possible. It's just sad

jayworld15:
They’re all from the same source and produce the same gibberish songs except few ones from Burna’s “Ye”, Davido’s “Fall”, Wizkid’s “Ojuelegbe”, Tuface’s “African Queen”, D’banj’s early songs, Patoranking’s “Peace song”. Aside these songs, others are nuisance. Songs are poetic in nature: they must evoke that social sensibilities in the listeners, treating contemporary issues. But when the singer deviates from those societal significances, they become nuisance to the real world.

As much as your thoughts on music hold some weight,it's still biased. Songs can be trivial and playful also. They don't necessarily need to convey any deep meaning. I definitely subscribe to your taste in music, but i also know that's not all there is. I just believe that any song one makes should be done tastefully and with originality. Sadly, there are not so many artistes who i could attribute the said attributes to. Most are shameless copycats.

kiddoiLL:
Not only in Africa.. Pangolins are actually and mainly found in Asia.

Even China yesterday lifted the Pangolin out of their drug test list. The animal needs all the protection it can get, as it's a dying specie because too many people are killing them off, and it's the world most trafficked animal.
These ones just wasted a fortune.
That animal could've been captured, and they could've tried contacting some Chinese company to trade it.
They'll pay to take the animal because now it's under Chinese Government's protection starting yesterday.
But Nigerians, we must kill and chop everything

I don't get the logic of contacting the Chinese Govt to protect an indigenous specie just because they have them also. It's not their job

betterpikinn:
This your response doesn't not make any sense.
The person you quoted gave a very valid point of the misconceptions.
Why call Brown black and pale white?
If nothing is truly attached to the colours, why not just call yourself what you are?

Can a human have a black skin (coal) or white skin (snow or cloud)?

As a Christian, can you picture God or Jesus or angels in black or in black clothes?

That's to tell you that it's truly a sentimental tag.

Well, i want to assume he got my point. He had earlier made it seem as if we'd gotten the short end of the stick by being labeled black. But that's perfect okay!

"Why can't we call ourselves by what we are?" That's a good question. The answer is, we cant!!! And that's because we're naturally programmed to recognize distinction. It through this ability we're able to study the natural world, by picking apart and labeling. It's no suprise we did the same to ourselves. We may be humans in the broad sense, but we're not the same.

Labeling us black was the first step the foreigners took at understanding what was to them, a strange people. What would the explorers had told their kinsmen back home on returning? That they just saw humans? Nah bro, that doesn't make sense.

We don't see ourselves as being one or the same, that's just thr plain truth. And there are alot of sound reasons why. What you're subscribing would only work in a Utopia.
