Christianity EtcRe: Pray 4 Peace In Gaza by JustCurious: 5:18pm On Jul 27, 2014
You truly must have finished praying for peace in Nigeria...

The sad truth is that we are in same dilemma. Unfortunately, our enemy is within. (BokoH). We need peace, too.

Lagbaja shouldn't drag himself into 'politics'. He could have just honourably decline the invitation without making some odious statements.
PetsRe: How Did You Feel When Your Pet Died? by JustCurious: 10:52am On Jul 26, 2014
I never knew I could love a dog so much the way I loved 'bright'. He was an epitome of his name. So friendly, yet a terror on the street. I remember coming back from school one early sunday morning. And, I had to immediately join my family to church in the car. Bright, just wouldn't let go...he pursue the car almost till 'eternity'...until we had to park half way to church and I came down to say hi..then, cajoled Bright back home..

It's been some years now, but I still go tears in my eyes when I remember the day he died. He was knocked down by a vehicle..and, while he laid by the road side, dying...this poor thing wouldn't stop wagging its tail for me when I arrived the scene. I CRIED! Yes, openly....right there on the street. I miss him so much. Now, my son is here, looking at me...crying...while I type this message...he must be wandering...why is momma, crying..cheesy

#Since Bright's demise. I find it SO difficult to 'fall in love' with a dog again. Never! grin #Memories.

PoliticsRe: “I Never Conceded The Election To Fayose”Gov Fayemi Makes Incredible About-turn by JustCurious:
ochejoseph: His party however was not too impressed with his move. It has been making statements condemning the Ekiti election and now Fayemi, in an interview – the first since his loss – which he granted to Dapo Thomas, a journalist and university teacher who also writes for Sunday Sun, Fay­emi said that he never conceded the election to Fayose and asked doubters to read the transcript of his post-election broadcast again.

Anyone who understands the English lan­guage well would know that that speech was not the concession speech that many people are talking about. Yes, I have said I won’t chal­lenge the election in court and congratulated Mr Fayose, but that’s not tantamount to accept­ing the result. That’s about saving Ekiti.”
Poor him.
I guess he couldn't withstand the heat from his political party anymore.


Accepting defeat is not a sign of weakness, but strenght.

That highlighted part is a national insult. Undoubtedly, there must be very insignificantly few people who understand English so well..
BusinessRe: My Experience With A Nigerian SAMPA Boy In Guangzhou, China by JustCurious: 8:53pm On Jul 19, 2014
Come to think of it, it's a common act back home. And, it is nothing new to some dealers especially those selling car parts, electronics etc. Just don't make the mistake of following your mechanic to Ladipo or Alaba or wherever to buying some spare car parts! It's rather you visit yourself or forget having an accompanist...because the moment you arrive the market, with the person, series of 'sign language' mode of communication transpires between the seller and this fellow, which would be unknown to you! The essence of the language is to inquire from the fellow who brought you how much percentage should be added to the original price.

Eventually after transaction, this added percentage would be given to your accompanist. Sometimes, the accompanist might need to make a revisit to get his 'commission', percentage.

The percentage is the accompanist's reward for bringing a customer to the dealer/seller. It's not uncommon to those guys in business. Sadly, this happens often. Once bitten, twice shy. I wish SAMPA-ISM could be scrapped. It's dishonesty in the part of the seller and accompanists. We don't have to reduce ourselves to this...#SayNo2Sampa-ism.
BusinessRe: My Experience With A Nigerian SAMPA Boy In Guangzhou, China by JustCurious: 8:32pm On Jul 19, 2014

FamilyRe: I Kept My Wife’s Corpse In A Room For Three Months Hoping She Would Wake Up –edw by JustCurious:
Why?

When a man re-marries after the death of his wife, people justify it by saying, 'Ko le gbe a ra duro ni'. (He can't withstand temptation that comes with loneliness) But, when a woman does, she is accused of killing her husband to bring in another.. I don't blame feminists. They have good points, though. wink

Who knows, PDP-ruling states might just come up with a 9-month maternity leave and 20days for fathers. Hehehe. I am loving all of these political strategies, already.

Increasing monthly allowance would have been lovelier, Mr. Governor.

Lol.

But really, you don't have to blame whoever manages that account, Image123. He needed to set the record straight. And, don't be surprised that some things that are 'useless' to you, might be so relevant to someone else.

It is what you have within that matters most. Not what you carry..

SportsRe: An Open Letter To Mikel Obi by JustCurious: 3:53pm On Jul 12, 2014
I don't have an open letter for Mikel Obi. However, I have an open suggestion. cheesy

Dear Mikel, undoubtedly, you are a great footballer. I love your spirit. I could remember vividly your transfer deal from Oslo, Norway. How Man Utd and Chelsea were trying to get a grip of you. Maybe, If you were not good enough, none of these clubs would have shown interest in you. You were our 'new' Okocha, another vibrant player in the making whom we passionately look forward to watching on the play field. 2005 has come and gone and, it's been some 9years!...however, instead of progressing, it seems it's been the other way round for you, as we see you 'struggling' on the field, playing 'amiss' like someone whose STAR has been blurred. I wouldn't know if this has to do with your 'sour' transfer deal. Really, no thanks to your poor manager then, who didn't help you start your professional career on a GOOD, CLEAN note. No thanks. My suggestion is that, you retrace your path and go for some spiritual re-branding, that is, if you understand what I mean :p.

Ma je ki won pa star mo e lara ju..

Nairaland GeneralRe: Nigeria Is A Useless Country,you Need To Be Away From Nigeria To See It! by JustCurious: 5:05pm On Jul 10, 2014
crackhaus: No one ever solved anything by just complaining about it.
What are you doing in your own little way to make Nigeria better?
What is your contribution so far in your own little community or circle?

Everyone has a mouth that can complain or fingers that can type loads of rants regarding Nigeria, but it's only very few people that try their best to implement change...the change they seek.

I'm not a fan of Nigeria too, I also have a lot of disgust for the system but I don't make noise about it cos that would make me just like everyone else.
You're guilty of the same problem by trying to exempt yourself... you just complained about people in offices acting like gods, when you just did the same thing by making yourself feel bigger than your country.

Really what is the point of this thread of yours?
thumbs up.. #ActionNeeded #EveryOneGotAPart2Play.

No, it's a problem with SOME Nigerians. Not all. Pls, don't generalize, thereby making us look so incompetent people.

There are credible, intelligent ones out there, too.
