dnawah: when they suddenly noticed a bus trailing them behind as they branched into his street only for the gunmen to start firing.;-(which kind training them d get self?somebody d follow u & u notice am u leed and straight 2 ur place.y not change direction and hit them or call 4 back up.

dey wer almost home wer he knew he had security waiting so that was the smartest move based on the available information.

1. who knew he was in town?
2. who would have a good reason for wanting him dead?
3. who would have access to that kind of firepower?
4. who knew he was unguarded at that moment?
5. who would know where he lived?

probably just a natural urge...i always feel an urge to spit after kising or even after eating slimy soup regardless of whether i enjoyed it...

what is all this?

you can't really compare spending money on a one off event such as giving large bonuses to 23 footballers with a huge recurring expense such as compensation for hundreds/possibly thousands of police officers dependents. bear in mind that such compensation should be commensurate with the officers salary which probably was not much in the first place...Police officers should be better trained and then better rewarded

the only reason a girl wuld front is if the guy has not shown her his "i dont really care that much about you" side.

@ Onila no offence intended but if uv really fronted for a year and a half then yu are:

1. definitely being childish
2. being chased by a mad man
3. in dire need of a reality check with regards to priorities in life.

NessaFresh: If naija guys could just let go of their ego and state that they suck at it..it would be better but they all claim to be good at it just like most NL guys often claim to be horses on bed when they last only 8 minutes...so all I'm tryna say is the guys won't want u teaching them and havin a dent on their pride so they'll claim they olympic champs in kissing but when the real ball game begins they'll just mess up errthing

you dont seem to have an opinion of your own on wat makes a good kiss. if you do id like to hear it

ok so it was fun engaging in the frivolity but men aint supposed to be going on and on with this kinda thing na.... who's up for a "the intelligence of nairaland men" sort of thread?" after high school good looks don't take you very far!

lol shuld i really join this madness ok here goes...

my five minutes in th elimelght are over. thank you very much ladies and gentlemen...ur far too kind.

i love this team but the defense is weak. they are extremely vulnerable to set pieces. other wise we're set. its a joy to watch emenike, moses and mikel together...breath taking at times. mikel is just a whole other class....what a player! see the mad passes this guy was just throwing with ease...an african Xavi??

obi4eze:
Masquerade has become someone's boy. So what do we call the masquerade's master?

someones master

lack of comprehension is terrible. it is quite clear that:
1. the masquerade was never actually arrested and therefore could not have disappeared from his cell.
2. when the dpo said egungun cannot be arrested he meant that the person to be arrested is the person who dressed up as a masquerade. that is to say that if Kayode dressed up as a masquerade and then killed someone, then kayode and not the masquerade would be arrested because there is no such legal entity as a masquerade.

but go on and ignore the obvious truth because yu think it makes you sound smart and witty.

been in this wierd kinda relationship with a girl...we werent dating but we were close and i tried to make things work with her but... anyway i learnt a lot as well:

1. Never be hasty in letting yourself love someone until you are sure you have something worth fighting for... love never comes good without a proper fight

2. Never give in to the extremes of your emotions. if your emotions are running high either positively or negatively u r liable to say something you will regret.

3. never let other people get involved in your relationship

4. Never go out of your way to do anything you think is the right thing to do if that action is not coming from the real you. if you have to do something just because you have heard someone say that it should be done that way then you are walking a flaming tight rope. this can range from ignoring her because you think it will make her miss you to refusing to complain about something because it will lead to a fight.

5. no matter how much you think yu love a girl and she is the one for you, you can and will eventually get over her. and then u'll wonder what the fuss was all about and then u'll meet someone else that makes you feel the same way and then you realize that it is all vanity...a mere blowing of the wind.

6. falling in love reciprocally is an indescribable feeling. helps one make sense out of marriage to some extent

as for practical skills she didnt teach me anything

maclatunji: Where are those who say[b] terrorists aren't attacked by Muslims[/b]... the Emir of kano is the de-facto No.2 ranking monarch in Northern Nigeria whose traditional monarchy is seen as representing the Muslim leadership in Nigeria. The attack on the Emir of kano is basically an attack on Islam in Nigeria.

Need I say more.

im sure you meant to say "muslims arent attcked by terrorists"? that aside it is clear the terrorists claimed responsibility for the attack on the soldiers and not the attack on the emir....dont try to mix things up deliberately. as yet it is still unknown the cause and group behind the attack on the emir but that one is much more likely to have been political. and if it was indeed your terror folks that attacked the emir then that just makes your whole bunch of folks seem all the more mindless doesnt it?

Onyegecha: Playing big brother while the home base burns?

it is clear Nigeria is pursuing her own in interest by sendng troops to Mali secondly how accurate is it to say the homeland burns?? is this not a gross exageration? a small portion of Nigeria is at war with a small group of insurgents. out of our tens of thousands of soldiers the 1,200 that we're sending to Mali is now a big deal? look under normal circunstances dealing with Boko Haram should not even involve soldiers. this should be handled by the NIA, Secret Service and the police if not that they are proving inadequate to handle this situation.

so they dress like men does that stop them from menstruating every month? alas confusion resides outside of Africa as well!!

abdulkayus: In d north. D issue of area boiz has gone into extinct. Most of dos dat suppose be area boys has find sometin to do wit their tym. Either being, truck pusher, okada man, bus conductor, petrol black market, offloader e.t.c. Dat is one good thing abt stayin in d north, no bagga to come and harrash u in d name of area boys. Dos area boys in d south shld find sometin to do and stop being lazy.

naaaaaaa most of em became bokos and have died on suicide missions.

all i want to know is WHO EVEN MAKES A USD80 K DOLL

in my experience it all boils done to one thing: self respect/confidence. a man with a true sense of self worth and respect will neither be a walkover nor go out of his way to be a so called bad boy. it is a hidden truth that insecurity is what leads to either of these two extremes.

wilson oruma has got to be on this list....also surprised yakubu and martins are absent given the fact that agahowa has made the list alongside mikel and even odemwingie. seriously no Taribo West?? Ike Shorunmu? Peter Rufai? never watched Rufai play personally but judging from the old folks opinion he was quite the keeper.

Dondav: LOL! @Op.. I pretend to be Nice and I've dated few girls. I'm actually Bad and can't get a girl in that state, so.. I pretend to be nice to get a good girl.


[b]NB: Bad girls date Bad guys.. The girls also pretend to be Nice or Good, But naturally they are bad! Cos Nobody likes to date a Bad girl[i][/i] [/b]

may God bless you for making sense. genuine good girls always go for nice guys. one has to differentiate between nice guys and weak guys...the two are not synonymous! most girls are really bad and just pretending to be good.

drs no secret(other than HIV/AIDs and AS genotype) that can derail my relationship with the one i love. even if she is a witch i will still seek deliverance and marry her rather than lose her. life is that simple for me...who she is is not what she has done and who she is to me is the only thing that matters.

[quote author=Omo_Tier1]Do you even watch football at all? Several teams have had people nominate or put themselves up for captaincy without them being branded as outcast. Man city had the same issue not long ago and that was managed as an internal matter.

A coach should earn respect and not demand it. Keshi I believe has not earned the respect of His players and this will be evident in no distant future. I am not against Keshi, but I think His bossy attitude will rock the boat like it did in His days when He was in the Eagles as a player.

To think rightly for a second, cig there was no vacancy in captaincy in Eagle, do you think Osazee would even raise the issue? Don't you think this would have been discussed at some point as Yobo appears to be remembering His real age is +6 of what He claims to be [/quote]ok lets assume ur right. why then is keshi upset about it? if here was a vacancy indeed and Osaze was ryt to raise the isuue please tell me why the coach is upset. or is keshi mad?

i wish some africans would think well....the super eagles already have a captain and yet a so called senior player is putting his name forward for the captainship which is not even up for grabs!! in other words he does not respect the current captain and neither does he respect the decision of the coach who chose that captain. if his outlandish proposition is even entertained that is a recipe for division in the squad barely two/three weeks to a major tournament. is he mad? where in the world have we heard of a person nominating themselves for such captainship of a football team? this is always the decision of the coach. even if there was such a practice going on then it would still be considered tasteless to nominate oneself.

my mom has great love for all her children but unfortunately at a young age i became convinced that my she didn't love me. she has sacrificed much for us, gone through hard times despite being from a wealthy home, been disrespected by us kids and all of that. i thank God im older and wiser now

to summarize everything i want to say, my dad is who i measure my manhood by. in everything i do i check to see if i am living up to or surpassing the legacy he has laid. he is a man not just respected at home but very well respected and looked up to in the community. there are many young many outside of our home who count him as a father, all of whom are way senior to me. Whatis a man?

1. a provider
2. a guardian
3. a care giver

my father? the epitome of all these.

football was my first choice till i had problems with my knees, tried joining the army both brittish and nigerian but had that scuppered cuz of the same complications with my knees as well as the fact that im too old to go to the defence academy as of now... so right now im settled in banking but looking to go back to school for law...plus i do some underground hip hop...gospel tho

Lordave: Oh Lord! Why not Sammy. What do we need that grandpa for? No Joel no Obiora none of the Uche brothers, and we are playing Venezuela a low and poorly ranked team. What happened to Spain, Germany, Netherland etc?

this is international football guy, the country can use Ameobi for only one tournament and forget about him, wat do we stand to lose?? a player of his experience will help the younger ones. secondly think about your statement well enough...if Nigeria is too good to be playing Venezuela then Spain, Germany, Netherlands are surely way too good to be playing Nigeria??

[quote author=X-factoria]@ Poster:

I don't think he hit you because of what you left in the sitting room but perhaps because you probably are taking sides in his tussle with your mum and have ignored him completely over the years and yet enjoy his benevolence and goodwill. I may be wrong though.

Granted your father's weakness in not being able to control his anger, I think you should re-examine the role you are playing in his sour relationship with your mum. That is the problem I see here. You said you only visit his house to spend time with your mum. You probably ignore him while you do that and he is a human being too. He needs to be loved. He probably thinks he has shown you much love and the only way you pay him back is cling to your mum and ignore him. It could be "jealousy" at play.

So before you leave his company, weigh your options probably. If you are sure you need him, which is not a bad idea since he is your dad, find a way to reach out to him and please "stop being judgmental of him". Everyone has a weakness and bartery may just be his share of that.

CALM DOWN BRO![/quote]Making sense...poster obviously has a very deep grudge against his dad and the role of the mom in all this has not really been made clear except to say she has been abused. the picture is incomplete

justwise: Yes its a privilege, its not your right to be issued a visa, its a privilege to be given one. Requirements are there to screen your application, even at that the embassy still retain the right to refuse you a visa if they deemed it necessary.

wrong thinking. yes it is a privilege of sorts to be granted a visa by any country and it is not mandatory to grant you one even after you meet the requirements but because the border officers are human beings and individuals they have been given guidelines in order to prevent abuses of the system such as those which occurred in the story above. so in theory the right to refuse a visa regardless of requirements being met is retained but in practice there must be justification for refusal of visas and therefore where requirements are met a visa should be granted. the country has the right to refuse you a visa but the individual immigration officer although representative of the country does not quite have the right to do so for no reason otherwise the whole system become arbitrary.
