Akhenaten:
What is missing from this debate is the gun control issue?

Why are U.S. politicians not discussing the gun issue? Is it, because the NRA has a stranglehold on the U.S. Congress?

comechop:
Any such thing exists? When I was in Naija, I never heard of a professional one.

Thing is, my girl is moving back to Nigeria for a bit - I already have a habit of sending her flowers at least once or more every month, and I dont plan on stopping.

Any one know of good places that can delivery good quality flowers in ABJ, LAG or PH?

Thanks!

p.s - yes my girl is Nigerian, but she is one of those rare kinds that appreciates romantic gestures like flowers, notes instead of your typica. . . . well let me not go there before I vex my NL sisters.

It's as a result of only one factor - neglect. Neglect by elected government, period.
I think everybody has forgotten about the youth. The very fabric of society does not cater to the needs of the younger generation. The school system in itself is not a problem, at least not on paper, but there's nobody in government who even cares about implementing the many policies. Since 1999, the civilians have done nothing to improve education, but has continued to starve the sector of funds for development, in fact even seeing an opportunity to further exploit Nigerians through the proliferation of mushroom private schools.

Consider the so-called UBE, which should guarantee nine years of primary and post-primary education. Is it even funded by the government? Is the government working to maintain any standards in the institutions? Are they building more schools, training and employing more teachers, in parallel with the growing population? What about the rural areas, is government ensuring that they get equal access to information? What exactly has any post-military government, from OBJ to GEJ, done for education in Nigeria? Zero. Rather they add more confusion by creating a useless examination called NECO, to complement the WAEC. How that has helped anything I am struggling to understand.

I went to school during the real free education years, before the civilians showed up. The army boys didn't have a problem with funding even university education, at least I still paid less than 200 naira, during the Abacha years. Now we have civilians, and an unprecedented oil windfall. We also  have well-educated politicians, we have even had two academics now as president. How much of the oil wealth has gone into education in the last 12 years? Zilch. And we like to say the military boys are illiterates. How ironic.

People start relationships because they are attracted to each other and may have fallen in love or hope to fall in love along the line.

the irony of the whole thing is when the guy is taken to trial, some lawyer will plead not guilty due to insanity, and he might get away with it.

And yet they keep mouthing NO to submissiveness. In case anyone is getting it twisted, she DID NOT agree to quit acting for the sake of her 'love' for Deji Akande (oh, puleez, as if she would have done the same if her would-be hubby had been an ordinary N250k/per month banker). Interesting how easily they all submit to bo$$men, but if its a regular dude, they bare their fangs and scream  'Independent woman'! Bullocks.

What a wonderful world. Goodluck to her.

Before I used to, but now, I don't and the main reason is majority of Nigerians I met abroad aren't friendly, especially to the Northerners. Once I tell them Im from the North, they just frown and start pumping their faces and chest with some kind of air of arrongance and intimidation. Some even had the nerve to ask me how did I get here? Is my father one of the thieves in Nigerian Gov't?

Nevertheless,i have my flat,my car,plasma,ps3,home cinema and a fully stocked kitchen.I was perfectly ok on my own.I had all i wanted but we lived apart.

You are right, most people will naturally gravitate towards people who look like them and share cultural similiarites and interests however the survey also demonstrated that white men received the most replies from WOMEN OF ALL RACES, therefore the question to ask is why is it that white men are considered to be good partner/marriage material over men of other races and in particular over black men by WOMEN OF ALL RACES?

buzugee:
i wouldn't pay those kind of surveys any mind. those surveys are done by white men. tis another tool to propagate their 'pseudo-desirability' and superiority. white people love blowing smoke up each others butt. to be honest with you, on the street level, black men are more desired than white men. but in magazines published by white men, white men are supposedly more desirable.

TEE ZERO:
P Square? Is that a professor of mathematics?
Don't mind me, I know P Square, though I listen more to Classic FM.
But, thanks, Jenifa, for the idea:,getting celebrities to do the do. I wonder if they even sell the cotton thread any longer. But did you check the myweku.com to see the gorgeous styles there?
Perhaps, it is time to ask Softsheen Carson to do something. If their answer is positive, then I will invite you, Jenifa
