wetin u dey talk self mr. Man. Do you think terrorist r armed robbers who u can trample upon. For instance look ISIS n look @ wat dey r doing in iraq n syria in syria it is civilian that is fighting, even with american airstrikes it has been challenging. Yes yes I agree d govt v failed in several efforts to curb dis insurgency but is not easy. Terrorist r people who willing to die fr deir cause. Don't open ur mouth n talk without 1st using brain. God bless Nigeria!

Pray tell how this improves your current condition? Did you vote your president to give you new naira notes with no economical gains or to provide power, security and employment.

The last OMO auction came out at 11%, this is an indication that we will see bills' rates at 11% levels soon, watch out!

Overall, foreign participation has reduced, and there has been less subcriptions these days, this should continue as we approach the election month. God dey!

@OP...thanks for bringing up this brilliant issue...but it's sad that this one reason is why many relationships have failed and many marriages ended...
Now, I'll say, relationships have fundamental rules esp when it's heading for marriage. The partners should portray what they will do in marriage before they're actually married (sex excluded). The only reason why u shudnt cook for yur guy is if he's not serious about ur relatnship or u have great doubts about him. Becos relationship is what gives a foundation for marriages. I do not see anything wrong in a lady cooking for her guy whenever she's in the guy's house or preferably, she cooks the food from her house and brings it to the guy. According to the OP's analysis, 5days visit in a month. I assume the guy does his cooking when yu're not there or finds another means to eat. Why not let him have a feeling and a difference betwn d time yu are with him and when yu're not? This helps yur relationship to be stronger. It's certain dat some guys can't cook, so if u don't cook for such guys, they look for someone who can cook for them all the time yu weren't around...and dos girls cud even go do the extra**. We're in relationships to become better pple, so if yu can't help a guy cook, how much impact will yu make in his life? Obviously, yu can't help with his loads of official duties...especially when his work takes a lot of his time. My point is cooking for a guy and doing some chores for him at least 90% of the time yu're together isn't a bad idea, because everyone needs assurance and security before entering into marriage. A lady, irrespective of her income or what she gets from her parents that cud make her not take from her guy, would always wanna be sure that her guy can sort out her needs when they marry and so a guy wants to be sure that his woman will cook good meals, with happiness even when they're married.
My advice to ladies, pls, if yu always allow yur guy take u out to eateries everytime and yu can't stop him, yu'd be so used to it but the day he finds a girl dat can cook at ease and won't allow him take her to eateries often, I bet yu the guy will start changing and could finally get stuck. To those who sees cooking as being a slave, I doubt if yu can maintain a home without good food. To those who are afraid of being submissive, there's no successful marriage without submission from the wife. The Bible says, 'wives submit yourselves to your husband' and men should love their wife, and not vice versa.
Finally, I have seen a situation where a guy had to chose betwn two ladies because of food. It sounds weird right? But it's true. The two of them cooked well, but one cooked more often than the other. The guy was our neighbor when we were still teenagers. I believe everyone desires a happy home irrespective of their status and career. Therefore, we should not do things because our friends do them, we shud always find out what works best for our relationships. Ladies should read their Bibles more and find out how to keep their homes and stop raising egos that will make dem end up being single mothers. Thank you all!

Bode2:
speaking on behalf of most reasonable ladies, I think ladies don't demand their dating partner to cook for them, I think the guy in question can still make use of soft drinks and snacks since it's just a visit, for crying out loud, his house is not a restaurant. Although the guy can SELDOM in fact RARELY cook and it is more honourable for ladies to dissuade their dating partner from cooking just in the name of entertainment. A lady must never cook in house of dating partner else she might start losing her worth or value and this goes along with the biblical words which compare a woman without discretion to a gold tied to a pig snout (cant really remember the exact words but we can at best form the imagery) and as someone said, you can cook that's if the guy come over to your place.

frank043:
Let her not cook,the guy will definitely not beg her! When he feels bored of her coming over and balancing her sorry self on the sofa,he will get a serious and better girl that will cook for him. I can bet with some CASH that any girl that refuses to cook(food that both parties will eat)for a guy she is dating DON'T know how to cook jack!! She is just a spoilt little piece of poo!!! Ask her and she will say "...honey let's go eat at TANTALIZER". As if that food was not cooked by a woman like her. My girlfriend cooks for me wella,and we both enjoy the meal together. I am even thinking of cooking for her,I pray she manages the CONCOTION I will put together. For your info,the ONLY GENUINE way to a man's heart is through his STOMACH,not the worthless sex you offer,which he will get elsewhere when you also choose to deny him that!!! Mtchew...no cook na,na only you go waka go your house that night. Laughs in latin. Case closed!!!

Hotbloodz:
I had over 20 chics b4 getting married. 1 of the things dt made me settle down was the following:
i. When my wife usually came to visit me in my pops house back then, i dey give am cloth to wash
ii. I actually give her money to cook exactly what I want to eat for me and she does it for me in my BQ in those days
iii. She stood out among all the hungry, forming bitches back then because she was my wife
My advise...
i. if you want to follow this goat that wrote this piece, by all means do so, when u r 40 u will wake up
ii. How can you play a role that you are not accustomed to? you wan be wife but you no wan behave as such...
iii. ...and this goes to all the 30+ & co ladies wey dey give men deadline for marriage, unfortunately, there are a million girls (mostly not lagos born tho) who will take care of ur man d way you never would (cos ur mama was too busy making money for d family to teach u how) that chic will take ur man and ur man will soooooo forget u exist(ed).
Good luck to all the humble, good and submissive girls out there, even if ur man leaves you, HE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU.

I hope they have saved enough money from the looties and booties of war. I also hope that they have save enough money to maintain their lavish and expensive life style with their pot belly.

mfm04622:
You are the ignorant one that should shut up. We as a society NEED practitioners in these fields. Desperately need them. Our problem is we employ anybody to do the jobs those who studied these courses should be doing. So they too do other people's jobs. The circle never ending

kozaic:
Forget about the marketability of the course and it relevance and ask yourself how many people applied for the COURSE....

You would excel in a course only and when you have passion for it..

I help check peoples admission and I can say that 97 percent of people admitted into the above named never thought of studying the aforementioned COURSES.

Naija!

0coded80:
nigerian with their mentality!!!!! going to university is not about looking for employment all about, it for u to have knowledge to be able to reproduce to d society. A 1st-first from a reputation university in any of those course funny to u will get better employment in a multinational company than those that study a over-hyped course with low grade. I pity those of u that think going to a university is all about getting employment.

jidestroud:
Firstly, i feel so stupid and used.
okay, the real story is this, I promised my girlfriend (Now ex) a Samsung Note 3 phone for her birthday. Luckily for me at my place of work, the cooperative had the same phone up for pick up. As a guy who is deeply in love and knows that giving is part of maintaining a healthy relationship, i decided to pick up 2 Samsung Note 3 at the rate of N130,000 to be paid over a period of 12 months. Good news, the birthday came and i delivered.
Bad news, just 2days after my warm heart gift to her, she BROKE UP WITH ME. REASON: She doesn't see a future, blah blah blah...family issues, cultural differences.
i'm in the second month of my payment now. still paying for my Ex phone.

Advice: Can I ask her for the phone back? i feel cheated. (To make matters worse, she even uses her new bobo as Dp's on her bbm, for a phone i'm still going to be indebted for the next 10 months.

SHOULD I GET MY PHONE BACK?

It is not a conspiracy, that is the actual fact, I do not think the Saudis are doing it willingly, the US is behind it and the intention is to cripple Russia's economy and probably cause Social unrest in Russia.

duni04:
Thank God the article said conspiracy theories. Everybody is so ready to believe there is a hidden plot somewhere while ignoring the fact that Saudi Arabia may simply be trying to guaranty its leadership in the oil market. Me I don't believe in any hidden plot or conspiracy. Its clear and open if you really want to understand.

duni04:
Saudi arabia whose economy is almost totally dependent on oil is collaborating with America, now the world's major oil supplier and whose economy is non oil driven, to punish Putin and crumble their own( Saudi arabia's) economy. Doesn't make sense.

"Now, attention is primarily focused on Saudi Arabia’s stubborn reluctance to cut oil production. And we can only guess: is it directed against Russia or against the United States?"
First appeared: http://journal-neo.org/2014/10/22/saudi-arabia-s-moves-in-the-oil-market/

"The current situation has started generating conspiracy theories. And most analysts are trying, foremost, to understand the policies of Saudi Arabia, which clearly has no intention to cut production significantly in order to maintain the price of oil. In fact, it is the one that is capable of responding first to any major change in the market situation: it has spare capacity to increase production if the price rises too high; it is able to quickly reduce production because it produces much more than other countries (9.7 million barrels per day). But on October 8, Saudi Arabia unexpectedly lowered the official price at which it sells oil to Asia",
First appeared: http://journal-neo.org/2014/10/22/saudi-arabia-s-moves-in-the-oil-market/

Most Likely, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) is trying to increase or at least maintain its market share, maintaining output and reducing the price for Asia. However, some analysts believe that Saudi Arabia’s reluctance to cut production is politically motivated. After all, one cannot rule out the option that the Saudis have agreed with the United States to strike at Russia in response to its actions in the Ukrainian conflict. Falling oil prices could lead to a serious reduction in budget revenues in Russia. One half of Russia’s budget income is derived from oil and gas exports, and gas price is in turn linked to oil prices (together this comprises two-thirds of the total revenue of Russian exports).

TonySpike:
This is the gradual demise and collapse of the 'booming' global oil industry. The oil pricing honeymoon remotely triggered by the 9/11 WTC attack is on the verge of been over. I hope this will not throw the world into a serious financial crisis or induce another economic meltdown? Any expert/analyst on energy sources knows that the glorious reign of oil and gas, which has spanned over a century, is about to be replaced by biofuels. I won't be surprised if by 2015, crude oil sells at $40pb. Nigerians, brace for impact!

pekeyim:
They just noticed? A trend that has been anticipated long before now, with Shale oil and new oil discoveries found almost everywhere in Africa and Reservoirs that were seen as unprofitable are now profitable.
Global Economic growth is shrinking, even the Manufacturing power house like China's economic growth forecast has reduced. If the Supply for Oil outwit it demand greatly prices will drop. Gas supply also has increased from LNG plants across the globe. But even for 2015 budget we still pegged the price of Crude Oil above $75 per barrel. Even in an election year. That's sickening to say the least, plus a Military budget of close to 1 trillion this year in review and we still had to take a loan of $1billion dollars. Having 2 ministers in a Ministry, the National Assembly and Senate keep voting huge cash to themselves for sitting.


We all see where we are Heading!!!

It is another election year, Nigerians have refused to ask the right questions, what is PDP and APC's energy plan?
what are their foreign policies? suffering and smiling as usual, I pity the civil servants.
The senate has rushed to remove minimum wage so they can pay anything when the going gets tough,

nairaman66:
Let the price continue to fall for all I care! Let's see how these thieving politicians won't change for good!

Nigeria has been raped for too long! You can see fat jaws finance minister speaking from an already prepared script.. ECA indeed, account that only exist in the National Dailies!!

Mrkuvuki:
I thought the unrest in the gulf &Middle east would ensure high crude prices..

zendy:
Just look at your write up. Displaying your crass ignorance for all to see. You are just one of the many Nigerians with 'slave mentality' who has never picked up a Nigerian history book to understand what happened back then and why the war was fought. Nothing you have said here is even remotely true about Ojukwu. For those who read this ignorant persons post. Be aware of this:
Ojukwu never forced any minority to join Biafra. The eastern Nigerian people's consultative assembly which comprised of all the Chiefs in the Niger-Delta gave Ojukwu the mandate to declare Biafra. The ignoramus also said that Ogundipe and Ojukwu reached an agreement to recognise Gowon as head of state when it is a known fact and even something Gowon confirmed at his birthday few days ago that one of the biggest problems Gowon and Ojukwu had was that Ojukwu told Gowon to hand over to the highest ranking officer which was Brigadier Ogundipe.This guy wants us to believe that Ogundipe and Ojukwu would agree that their Junior,Gowon,should become head of state? Finally,this dunce said that Ojukwu only depended on his fathers wealth and led Igbos to a war where they were killed. Mr man, Ojukwu entered the Nigerian army because he did not want to depend on his fathers wealth. Ojukwu became a successful business man in Ivory Coast while in exile after taking a loan and starting up. Ojukwu led his people in a war for freedom,many died but we the Igbos do not curse Ojukwu because we know freedom is always purchased in blood. South Sudan fought a war for many years and lost millions of lives to war and starvation but they have their own country today and they are enjoying it. But because you are a slave of 'one Nigeria',you will never understand the right of a people to sovereignty,self determination and the right of any body to choose if they want to be Nigerian or not. I'm proud of my Igbo nation that we fought for our freedom,and even though we lost, we should all remember that destiny delayed is not destiny denied.

Moneyb:
My man, re-read the article, i am(OP) not supporting the writer, i only posted the article here as i got it from punch. Check the source before you go on abusing the OP.

Piece of advice: Always read and understand before abusing people on nairaland. FYI, am not supporting GEJ.

NairaMode:
Tell your father and mother and entire family to STFU.
When you do not respect peoples right to express themselves then you are an animal.
When you do not know how to pass across a message without being insolent or condescending then you are almost insan*e.
Where is your decorum you this immature pig.
Your DP actually depicts how "infant" your mindset and reasoning capability is.

Word of advice:
You don't have to act like an animal or force your opinion on others. It paints you as someone with neurotic disorder.
Teach, criticize and pass across knowledge such that people will learn from you.

How was your night?

NairaMode:
Well done.
Given them autonomy will simply improve corruption in the creeks.
Nigeria is not ripe yet. This is sad because we are even over 50.

Why is no country banning the US?


Is this a case of "All countries are equal,but some are more equal than others" ?
