OYa, On behalf of neyoor...

,.,sorry nah!

Aha! Advocatus Diaboli sighted!.

Diarylanders are Peaceful people!

Perish the thought!.

Laveda:
No no..
He's been carrying this matter on his head .
Imagine him saying I picked the guy with poor lines..
What nonsense! It was a wooing competition..
Not some poetry lines or whatever.

Neyoor enough of it I beg you.
Don't get me angry.

Just take it easy, no need to get angry over such things... It all for fun remember. I'm sure the dude doesn't mean any harm in anyway. Just chill a bit.

Laveda:


If there's anyone who's supposed to be worried that should be me..
Neyoor enough if all the nonsense..
Aren't you same person that dropped out of the wooing contest? Why you telling me whose Lines are better?

I would really appreciate if you keep your fùcking choice to yourself..

Easy dear. The dude was just giving his harmless opinion. No need to get all vulgar up.

Oliviaarims:
Complete joker! I'll tell u to buy another 60naira apple and put it back in ur eyes... And thank God 5naira sugar is still sold.

LMFAO. Do they still sell it in Ekosodin or BDPA? Lol.

darkenedrebel:
...where are the mellifluous rhymes & rhyme schemes?...where are the figurative enjambments & ember-esque tropes?... ..the mixed metaphors & trenchant paraphors?...where is the astute storytelling that gets your hackles up?...where is witticism & intelligent use of vocabulary?...

...smh...
...I expected more...this is not what I gave farano 2 years ago...

Everybody can't be you bro. Lol.

NewSheriff:
Naaah! Maybe you didn't really go through contender 3's lines.

Well, it's all in the court of Lavéda.

I did. His first line is not original. I've seen that line one time too many in many poems.

timidapsin:
smiles and images are allowed

Is that right? Using similes and lines that are very well known can not be said to be original.

Oliviaarims, if I should approach you and wanted to woo you and I tell you "you're the apple of my eyes and the sugar in my tea" won't you call me a joker? Lol.

NewSheriff:
Contestant 1 was getting it but cut it short too soon.

Contestant 3 should be the winner here abi I lie, Laveda?

Contender 1 and 2 wooing lines are sublime.

Naijaboiy, in terms of originality, contender 1 and 2 are good to go. Adasun is good also.

However, princeparix' use of similes made his wooing lines totally not original.

Originalsly:
Thanks for supporting my point.... you have no clue about the role of a prefect. If a student disobeys the prefect what should the prefect do? With this your way of thinking is the reason why the Chinese, Indian, Arabs and other foreigners be slapping and beating grown men and women in the workplace.... you have the mentality of a slave.... follow instructions or you deserve whatever punishment is meted out to you. May my comments open your eyes to the bigger picture.

On the contrary, may your comments further pull you into the abyss of ignorance which you so righteously swim inside.

Perhaps you can outline the duties of a prefect, not just a prefect, but the head girl as well.

meelorlah:
Ehyahh, sowi ehn...man must sha chop

Abi oh. All join sha. You reside in Ogun state?

meelorlah:
Always nice to meet u too

Yh,hope yours is also

Yeah. The feeling is mutual

My day has been nice so far. Just getting ready to start work. This is the period my work becomes some what tedious.

meelorlah:
Hi ....we've met here again

Yes we have. Always nice to meet you anyway. Lol.

Hope your day is been fun?

alexlee50:
I agree with u that the girl was rude.she could also have been rude to the teachers but that is not a justification for her to be beaten to the extent that she needs to be hospitalized.

Indeed, I made this known in my post in the previous post that spawned all this is the first place.

All children cannot be perfect, there are bound to deviants. How do u manage a deviant child, how do you bring out the best from somsomething bad.how do you model a child into a good role model and an inspiration for the other kids? It is not when you make a good child behave and perform well that makes you a good parent/guardian but your ability to model a deviant into something good.it is that bad child that has become that becomes the role model for others, the community and the society at large. Does the school have a guidiance/counselling department?

This is best left for the school to answer, not me. I know how most public schools are run, and I'll not be surprise that they do have a guidance counselor and I will not even be surprise if the counselor is among the teachers who flogged Ogechi.

Why didnt they send her for counselling? Have they been counselling the children before now on good conduct, etiquette? The school have failed in their duty to model a deviant child into a good role model for others to emulate.there is no justification whatsoever for meting out that punishment to the girl

Truth be told bro, you don't expect teachers to do everything a parent should do. The home/parent have a role to play too. Most of what you mentioned above should be taught by parents first, not the school. I tell you that parents have left mostly everything that has to do with training of a child entirely to the teachers.

If the school have failed, the parents failed also! Its just the plain truth. We always like to apportion blame to individuals forgetting that we too share part of the blame.

Of course the school had no right to mete out the punishment given the girl, but the girl Ogechi had no right whatsoever to refuse doing what she did. Its just that simple.

Her actions spawned all what is happening now. That is just the plain truth, blaming the school for failing in training the child and not blaming the girls parents is just wrong! That's the truth.

senatorbayor:
Let me give you time so that you can read over all your comments to see the amazing level of your illogical reasoning.

If your students reasoned more than I do, then it shows you are are learner while the students are your instructors

Shamefully, You said you teach in a private school, is that how your so called mushroom private schools deals with the Ogechis where 6 teachers including you and the principal gang up to inflict injury on the bare body and bombom of your students cos they did what you termed "rude"

Cover your face in shame if truly you are a teacher and not an instructor as you have displayed here.

you need refresher course on effective discipline and classroom management . By the time you are done, You will thank me

Good morning once more

Where did I say I teach in a private school? LMAO. Honestly this guy is only good at assuming. I refuted your stewpid claim that I teach in a public school, then voila, the next thing is for you to assume I teach in a private school.

This is how you go about forming opinions without having adequate facts to back up your opinions. Its a shame.

Truly, ignorance is bliss. Jankara senator, please once again, remain in the abyss of ignorance as I will not reply your mention hence forth, because you're a narrow minded simpleton.

And you can shove your good morning up your narrow minded behind.

emenas:
GUYS COME AND DEFEND YOURSELF OOO AND
TELL US WHAT YOU WILL DO IN A SITUATION
LIKE THIS

Just tell her to dress properly. She's in someone's matrimonial home. Not every man is a slave to what he sees. Many have self control. Like me for instance, especially when it has to do with my happiness.

meelorlah:
How did I miss this? I'm so so late.

Happy birthday Mizmycoli, you're a great person and I really admire you. I wish we could have more ladies like you on NL, you are inspiring.

You've got a fan here,sebi u know

Hello.

ponpon:
Many people who don't know the real story just keep commenting and commenting Bullshit....she was late to school,... *that's why she lied about 8am*...the prefect told them to kneel down, she refused, and she was utterly very rude, she slapped the prefect who reported to the principal. The principal ordered she should be punished and she was given four strokes.. She walked out of the school angrily and started a sweet show on social media.....

Can you imagine? But how do you know all of this?

Originalsly:
Hmm....reading these comments make me want to believe that most of us don't know the role of the prefect and neither does the principal or teaching staff. A prefect should never ever in any form discipline a student so for this one to slap a student she deserved to get a slap in return. Why was the prefect not reprimanded? We shut our eyes to this the root of the problem but yet open our mouths to make noise about the victim being rude and undisciplined. If the police were to do their job...the principal and staff members should all be charged....but ...they are afraid because of the principal's military connections .... and we still wonder why jungle justice is so widespread. Should the victim be my daughter or sister..in time I would've found a way to stalk and get back at each and every one of them.

Please I wouldn't want to believe you didn't read the OP. The girl refused to do what she was told to do. If she had simply done what she was told to do, all this would not have happened. That's just the way it is.

UjSizzle:
I understand you. Education is not just about learning, but also character development. So far, Ogechi's character needs ample development.
But even though I understand why the teachers acted that way (I mean you have to disabuse people like this of the notion that they can get away with gross insolence ) I still think they overreacted. The grass cutting would have been sufficient punishment, but taking turns to beat her?

We need to learn to give punishments that equal the weight of the crime. This was way higher.

Men UJ, UJ I'm in love... But still. However this may be, I believe telling her to cut grass would not have passed the message across. No doubt. The teachers went too far, just one of them should have drilled her. I work with kids like this... Beating them isn't the main thing to use to drive home a message. But drilling them is.

If it was me, I would have made her ride Okada for 2 hours. Then she'll know what's up. Let the pain teach her a very valid lesson.

All the more reason why I teach the kids I teach that education doesn't just involve the learning of books, but also the molding of character and the fine turning of attitude.

lordmans:
Definitely, Ogechi from the story no doubt is a rude girl and she must have irked the irrational response she got from the school authorities. But the school authority could have simply suspended from the school which to me is more heavier than the flogging.

What is more worrisome is the dramatis personae of those trying to enforce her rights-they are Ibos and she is Ibo too. This should not be made an igbo affair as it will be counter-productive. Objectivity should be maintained so it wont turn around.

A very commendable reply my good man. Violence begot violence. Everybody is guilty. I wonder why they fail to see that ogechi's actions by virtue of her disobedience and rudeness caused all this problems...

If she had simply obeyed the head girl, all this would not have happened. Her condition is the result of her own action.

herlonso:
Nt chair matter my guy, dt brutal beating. i jst pity ur children honestly coz u av so much bitterness in u

And I pity your children also because they will end up being block heads. Such a shame.

Look at things holistically before you draw or arrive at any conclusion. No be chair mata cause all de wahala in the first place. Mtscheeew.

Just see yourself now. kai! We don suffer for dis naija, no be small.

menxer:
One carton of Orijin for you.

You just summarized why our standard of education is falling.

In those days that our standard of education is said to have been high, was there no discipline cum flogging of students?

I have forgotten all my teachers and lecturers in school except those hard core disciplinarians and what they stood for; their names still etched in memory ring bells.

Thank you my good man. Senatorbayor and his band or moronic pirates will always fail to see this very important fact.

People like them always see what they want to see, and by so doing, base their narrow minded opinions on it.

herlonso:
pls try use ur brain to think nw, no mata d rudeness 4rm ogechi d head girl doesnt stand any chance 2 even touch her not to talk of slap. u're jst talking poo since... u will b here saying nonsence if dt girl passed on 4 dt brutal treatment 4rm d stupid set of teachers abi..... try ds in d state nd u are a gonner

You sef try to use your brain here also. How can a sensible human compare the U.S to Nigeria in terms of education? If this was the state, Ogechi will not even be asked to carry desk and benches in the first place.

Abeg shift joor!

herlonso:
Leave him alone, i doubt if d guy was trained as a teacher.... his tinking is nt welcome as a teacher at all...

Who is responsible for training teachers? If I may ask you.

senatorbayor:
Indeed, you are a teacher.
How were you employed with this your illogical reasoning.

Having read through the thread, you stand tall in nonsensical reasoning while other responsible parents keep whipping you to line.

Which village school employed you?

Keep living in the dark ages where you feel lashing the buttocks of students makes them great leaders forgetting the aspect of moral instructions

A beam of my search light on your comments here shows how the products of your students would be.

I pity your daughters cos their bombom will always be in pain from any slight provocation
and salary frustrations

Keep receiving the bashing from Nairalanders who are true parents

Where others have failed on you, I have tried.

Oh you simpleton! Imagine the barrage of nonsense spewing from your fingers. No wonder you can't see what's in front of you even when its looking right at you.

You asked what I would do if the girl in question was my child, I gave you answers and in your narrow minded and myopic way, you put everything on poor reasoning. LMAO!

Lemme even ask you, what type of reasoning did I exhibit here, since you say its poor, you should know the type, and hey, don't bother using wikipedia, it can not be trusted.

When people like you are made to swallow your narrow mindedness as well as your shallow mindedness, the above is what you spew, blaming everything on poor salary and what you don't know about?

For the question simpleton, who even told you I teach in a public school? Oh yea, you assumed! So much like you to assume everything when you have facts staring right in your shallow thoughts.

If you see my students, you will cower because they reason far better than you and anything that will come out from your narrow minded loins.

Shioor! Just see person wey dey talk. Jankara senator na banjo for jankara.

Please, remain in the abyss of ignorance because from all what you've been saying, that is where you truly belong. After all, "ignorance is bliss".

UjSizzle:
Hehe that gehl's rudeness carry weight sha. I know girls like this from boarding school and it takes a fine measure of self-control and grace to walk away from breaking their heads.

Men I could kiss you for this comment! I wonder why many emotional and sentimental nigerians can't even see things the way they are, rather, they always choose to see it the way they want to.
