Gboliwe: Most if not all Nigerians who can afford to put their aged ones in homes do NOT live below the poverty level.

I think we should pick the option of looking around us and finding one aged who is really in need of a breathe of fresh air.
Like someone mentioned, the north as it is today need a lot of help too. We can also look at helping a family or two up north.

...You would be surprised at the statistics of 'abandoned' aged people in some of these homes
I would suggest a need assessment exercise is carried out before taking the next step...intervention.

Hello Moderators/Seun,

Last year, I deactivated my initial account because I felt I needed a break. However, to my utmost surprise, I received a mail this morning from a Nairaland user (who needed my opinion, anyway) making reference to my old post of September 2007! Now, I am so curious about how this fellow could send an email to a deactivated account? ...is there something I should be worried about, please? This is my primary email account and got nothing to do with Nairaland, anymore. Thanks. Cc: Seun

School children need be protected because they are more vulnerable. They know next to nothing about EVD, the symptoms and preventive measures. #Let the kids stay safe

Are they really over priced or simply for specific target audience?

chulla12: I guess Black women didn't change much in the world?

Objectively speaking....I would say Black American women were instrumental too in changing history.

An iconic photo of a black american lady attending an 'all white' school in Arkansas in light of de-segregation laws during the civil rights movement:

Yeah. She must have been part of the LITTLE ROCK NINE (Arkansas). The nine terrific Black Americans who stood for change amidst defiant segregation. #Respect4Ever

I just read about the #RiceBucketChallenge going on in India and I love the idea. All you got to do is to donate a bucket of rice to a needy family, take the video and share online. This seems perfect as poverty has been a major setback in the country. One for all, all for one.

Let's give the western world a break to decide what is of interest and priority to them. Finding cure for ALS isn't a terrible idea, so is the #IceBucketChallenge. Let's hope the funding raised would be used appropriately this time.

Nigeria need come up with a challenge, too.

Freezing Rain, it is. #ClimateChange

These were girls writing the WAEC exams. So, they aren't illiterate nor uneducated as many people on this forum are portraying. They are hIgh school girls, so communication in English in the U.S should not be an herculean task. #IMO

Sallychizzl3: really

please tell me more.

In every child, there lies (an iota of) greatness waiting to be exploited. Pity those children who don't grow up in countries where their capability, strength and talents are appreciated and exploited.

This result does not reflect the child's failure but of a failed educational system.

jmaine: That is what happens when you have an established database system to cross match referencing . . . . .In Nigeria, we clearly don't . . . . .

It truly would be a brilliant idea if all of our Local Government Areas have functional database system of citizens in the locality.

I think this is something purpose-driven leaders would ensure: a data-driven system...

atlwireles: See what poverty has caused in this young man's life

Did you say poverty?! No, no..
That guy is from one 'hell' of a rich family. Maybe you omitted the line up there which says he used to live with his family in their 1Million Pound home, in the affluent London area of Maida Vale, until last year.

He chose to walk this godless path, not for lack of affluence. He's been severely brainwashed...
