Adultery is a sin but not a crime. That's y it can't be found in the criminal code.
They don't use the CC in northern Nigeria. They use the Penal Code, and adultery is a crime in the PC.

Forget that. Someone did this many decades ago and got on the map. To get on the heli map today, you have to improve on today's technology.

I make my own the way amala is made. I put water on fire, then I stir in the semo powder briskly to avoid lumps. It comes out very well cooked and fine. Hope this helps.
Yes, thanks.

Kowor tried but she got some things wrong.

The water you will turn the thoroughly mixed dry semo with cold water to, must be at boilling point before you turn the cold semo in, otherwise you will have your semo that taste sugary, that means is "undone" Also note that you must turn simultaneously while adding the dry semo in thin forms, dont add much quantity at a time, turn vigorously, and dont make it too strong while on fire, bcs semo tends to be harder once out of fire. Enjoy with okra soup!
So I mix some semo with water, turn the paste into boiling water, and stir, then start adding more semo (the powder) bit by bit while turning. That it?
Foreign Affairs › Re: Possible Coup In Turkey, Military Locks Down Bridges That Connect Europe & Asia by JuanDeDios: 10:06pm On Jul 15, 2016
NairaMinted:
Sultan Erdogan fanboys, where are thou? grin

Erdogan's plate was full: repression of the press and heavy handed crackdown on freedom of speech, aiding jihadists in Syria and Iraq, illegal cross border incursions into Syria and Iraq, the genocidal crackdown on Kurds where several Kurish cities were wiped out, shooting down a Russian jet which in turn tanked the economy when Russian tourists stopped visiting and the general instability that Erdogan's actions brought upon his country are all possible reasons why these brave military officers have staged this coup

Erdogan's apology to Putin and his move to seek a detente in relations with Russia and step back from his ill-advised and delusional goals came too late. Good riddance"

Ok. I pour little amount of semo in a bowl and add little water. The way one prepares custard. Then i heat water in a pot, while it gets heated, i pour the content into the pot and stir. While i stir, i pour d semo powder into the pot till i get the desired texture. Then i keep turning the semo on the fire till it's so smooth. And am ready to eat. Reply and tell me the result when you use this method.
Thank you. But let's understand you.

1. You pour a little amount of semo in a bowl and add a little (ordinary) water.
2. You heat water in a pot (do you heat it to boiling point before proceeding to 3?)
3. You pour the content (the semo you added to ordinary water) into the pot with water (still on the stove) and stir.
4. While you stir, you pour the semo powder into the pot and stir till you get the desired texture. (Here's where you really got me confused. I thought you already poured semo into ordinary water which you turned into the heating water. Which semo are you adding here again?)
5. You turn till it's smooth.

By the way, I don't do custard and I've no clue about that one. I eat oats and I prepare it my own way.

Thank you.

From what I was taught back in the days in school, salary is a reward for jobs or works on a monthly basis, it comes monthly.

For your reading pleasure, sir.

Cambridge dictionary
Salary
a fixed amount of money agreed every year as pay for an employee, usually paid directly into his or her bank account every month
an annual salary of £20 000
His net monthly salary is £1500.
She's on quite a good/decent salary in her present job.
He took a drop in (= accepted a lower) salary when he changed jobs.
a 10% salary increase

Compare wage

See why she thought you'd know and didn't specify?

Ever heard the phrase, "culture shock"? What you consider perfectly normal in one society is considered not in another. When you talk of salary or earning, a Nigerian automatically thinks month. But when you say it to a Brit or an American, he automatically thinks year. Even during job salary negotiations over there, the figures are in years. It's a "salary" because you are going to be paid on a monthly basis; it doesn't mean that the figure stated is what you will get monthly. I learnt that as a kid because I was raised on foreign radio. I know what you learnt in school, but, sir, you need to broaden your horizon and get some exposure. Besides the sheer amount involved (70k pounds and above) should have given you a hint.

hybeenoni:
@ suyamasta the delay were caused primarily due to the management of the railway service by the government. Govt has no business managing the railway, rather, it should be managed by the private investors while Govt act as the regulatory agency just as its done in the telecoms sector.
Let me list out the problems below:

* sometimes first class tickets are sold when it's not certain that a passenger will secure seat.
* some of the staff still this mentality of Govt job, behaving as if they are doing the passenger a favour.
* At some stations the head of the train will be removed and driven to another place to get fuel, while I fuel should be made available in such stations without need to wait unnecessarily.
* some staff reserve first class seat for pple by verbal agreement even though they have not made payment.
* some staff try to make money illegal by bringing passengers in after collecting their money.

Though some of their staffs are very friendly I must admit. Had a very good time with many of them
I'm planning a trip and don't want to fall victim to paying for first class and not getting a seat. So what's your advice? Thank you.

Trust me, the phobia will either kill you or u'll just pack the car in the middle of the road then trek home.

How is she dumb? In most African languages, whales and dolphins are referred to as "giant fishes".

They tend to lead the pack in innovation sha...like their e-branch @ uniben had a large lobby with 4 sockets on each bench n well u know students! 2weeks after opening that branch they basically had amassed an impressive customer base within uniben n ugbowo in general.
The Punch has never been bought. Whether it's OBJ third term wraparound ad scandal or Dasukigate, they've always been out of any scandal. You don't have to put down anything Nigerian to make your point.

Precisely. The Burutai case was almost certainly divulged by disgruntled but formally close confidant, most likely the recently retired officers.

I won't be surprised if that is how SR gets most of it stories, and that could explain the haphazard nature. It's not as if they start investigating one politician after the other. That would cost a lot of money. I strongly believe they rely on insiders.
You're right. Apart from "disgruntled" former players, there are people within the public sector who are sick of what is going on and do give out information. And not just to Sahara Reporters.

That is how they operate.
Try it and see if they won't ask you for proof. There are actually lots of things they know but don't publish because they don't have any proof.

Ok Nollywood paymaster, truth is I do not even know the guy nor do I watch Nollywood movies. I am trying to correct this notion people( especially Nigerian pre teen and post teen)have now that people must be shady to make some money,a whole lot of people still make their money in a legit way.
I do not need facts to buttress my perception about your person, from experience I know those who question every bit and doubt that people still can make money legit are economically depressed and need validation.
Show me where I said he made money illegitimately or suggested you don't make legitimate money or said anything about the economy. Not reading a post properly or reading your own prejudices into it is common with pre-teens. No surprises you've admitted to plucking figures out of thin air. Again, you're still throwing stones in the dark hoping to score a hit, and I won't talk about myself.

His likes will get paid minimum of 500k-1m per movie, with the rate they shoot who know he just might get up to 2 movies a week. Also fame opens doors to a lot of opportunities. Looking at the house and car you can see it is a modest and somewhat legitimate fruit of his labour.
Rather than sit here calculating how much he gets paid, or whatever scenario you want to cook up to paint a picture of him making the money through unwholesome means. Why not strife and make your own story a success.
The bad economy has made a lot of you lazy, all you do now is sit and caste aspersion.
1/3.
Your calculations are wrong. Even Nollywood actors rated above him don't make N1m steady per week from movies alone. His class makes nothing anything close. You're right about fame opening doors; he isn't an A-list actor, but miracles happen every day. You're right about the house being modest - IF it's not in Lekki. A Hummer isn't modest, but again you can always buy something expensive under one of those circumstances on the cheap. Since you don't know me, we can say with certainty that your closing rants aren't based on knowledge but are a misguided attempt to score gutter points and should not be responded to with facts.
