I just cant understand why Nigerians suffer so much humiliation and harrasment abroad.
Just Negodu what this students are passing through.
It is well.

It is very obvious that Nigerians were not singled out to receive bad treatment...the school they were going to has been shut down, so what is their purpose of remaining in the country? They have to return. And it is clear that it applies to all students as from the pics we can see lots of semites and indian-looking fellows. And they only being mildly inconvenienced...

neocortex:
It is ironic that someone who preaches faith now accuse atheists of logical fallacies.
Please tell is faith and logic compatible ?
If a point is logical it requires no faith, hence the op can be regarded as faithless person.

the op does not talk about his own faith in the post... he is talking about atheism. the fact that he uses logic and logical constructs to critic those who profess to be logical does not mean that he also applies logical thinking to matters of his faith. how did you arrive at that conclusion?

but there is also logic to faith, we must only disagree on what is logic (upon which you have no monopoly of definition).

JackBizzle:
Projection fallacy- pushing your own failed arguments on your opponent.

Christians like you only believe in God because there is no evidence to prove otherwise.

wrong! we who believe in God have plenty evidence of His existence. You just don't agree with us about the evidence but to us it is 100 percent veracious.

help, help, help...government should help this one and that one...why do we love help so much in this country??

btw, how much effort did he put into designing the flag?

there has to be more to this story... the write-up does not give one any idea why the husband was not charged with murder, and if he was charged, why he was acquitted, and remains a free man.

What were the full circumstances of this case, i wonder?

JimiOgunlola:
But you are one of those APC zombies that condemn IPOB when they teach you geography and reiterate that Cross river and Akwa Ibomites are more Easterners than Anambrians and Imolites?

I'm in a good mood this morning (i am expecting alert any time from now ) so i'll humor you with a response: i don't know what you're talking about bro...

It is obvious that those two states are the true south east, i've never understood why they are called south south when the so called south eastern states are sandwiched between Delta, Bayelsa on the west and Cross River, Akwa Ibom on the East....

Pidggin:
Edo is not part of SS, it is more of SW. They share a lot of similarities to the south western region especially in aspects of culture and religion. I am a Geographer.

Stop presenting your opinion as fact. These are the facts:

Pidggin:
Edo is not part of South South.

Of course Edo is a core south-south state(whether you like it or not). Geographically, it s even more south-south than the likes of cross river and akwa ibom, which are in true geographical terms, the most easterly states in the federation.

I hope this dude is just trying to get attention, if he truly does not believe witches, witchcraft, marine spirit & demonic powers dont exist then "HUNGERBAD" is an understatement!!! I hope this dude is just trying to get attention, if he truly does not believe witches, witchcraft, marine spirit & demonic powers dont exist then "HUNGERBAD" is an understatement!!!

believing in the existence of evil is one thing, trying to prove that a person is evil is another. and it is yet another, for you to assault a citizen of the federal republic of Nigeria, on the suspicion that they are "evil", in the absence of evidence of any legal wrongdoing.

All those who laid hands on this woman should be arrested and charged to court.

HungerBAD:
Barbarians.

Do people really believe in witches and wizards?why do we give so much powers to none existence things?why are we Africans still shackled in the Caveman's mentality?

This is a clear case of a mentally challenged person,and instead of sympathy,and help to be offered to her,the perverts from this town stripped her of her clothes,so they can have a peep of her old privates.

Shame on them.

Are there no Police in this town?during my Service days,a mentally challenged man in the Community I usually give money or buy food for,one day whispered to me that he killed Herbert Macaulay. Herbert Macaulay died in 1946.

My point is. Mentally challenged people,say things they are not even aware they say.

This woman should be released to her relatives for treatment,instead of beating her into confessing what she knows nothing about.

My heart is in serious agony right now, looking at these pictures... instead of helping a sick woman receive treatment, they beat her so terribly that her eyes are swollen... why?

Even if you do believe that she is a witch, as a Christian, the bible says the weapons of our warfare are not carnal.

This is heart-rending.

handsomeclouds:
Even the flight ticket form Ibadan to Abuja ( go/come) should be over #50,000
Useless country

correct me if i'm wrong, but in advanced "not-useless" countries do they hand out cash prizes to students for good performance? are the students not the primary beneficiaries of their own good results? so why do they need another reward for that?

that woman talking in the background... Nigerian accent is thick!

breakeven:
Who am i to believe now, BBC or Nigerian Army ? well judging from the antecedent of both, i will choose to believe the good old BBC. Oyibo will not tell this kind of black lie. only the blackman can tell a black lie.

Orly?

So where are the pictures of the supposed hoisted flags?

Who are the witnesses who saw the hoisting of the flags?

Why are you like this?

metallisc:
you just might be talking about yourself!

lol... he was being sarcastic bro

sinaj:
This is so so wrong.

In as much as am a christian, am nt gonna take sides with this man in a priest robe or try to defend him.

If anything should happen to those guys, the police should start arresting from the man in white robe

Based on??

The evidence suggests that the priest's arrival on the scene actually may have brought respite for the apprehended fellows.

Look at the pictures again. In the one picture where the priest is not visible, the crowd is much closer to the men, ostensibly from which distance they could land some blows. In the pictures where the priest is visible, the crowd has cleared and given the men a very wide berth, obviously on instruction.

Why accuse without facts?

Cutehector:
Modern priests sha. Most of them do not understand their calling.




Some of them are just after money.

Is there any evidence that indicates that the priest was present during the beating of the said thieves? If anything at all, it is evident that the thieves had been subject to what one can reasonably infer was a ferocious beating, going by numerous wounds on their heads and other parts which are bleeding seriously but someone caused the beatings to stop. In the pictures where the priest is visible, the crowd has cleared some space around them, and no one can be seen beating the accused.

This indicates to me quite strongly, that the crowd or other agents thereof, did in fact beat the thieves but were caused to stop quite possibly, by the priest.

"waoooo"

"what request do you need from me?"

Mark Zuckerberg said these? Right. Aba-made Marknsukkabag more likely!

I honestly wonder if i am really a Nigerian when i see how some of you think.... the mind boggles!

pamelga:
I just got a job dat pays 70k per month couple with other allowances. Considering the economy, can I begin a family with this pay...
Advice please!

My only piece of advice to you today is that you should use wisdom to sift out the wise responses from that of toddlers in this thread. Ultimately, the decision is yours, and you should be able to discuss with your partner, to determine how you both can make it work.

Remember that we are here on earth but for a breath or two and then we are gone: don't spend all of your life planning for how to live it, without actually living!

just a few inches away from ending that poor girls life... this case should be treated as attempted murder

niggi4life:
When you have 10 Exes who were raised by single parent and only one is married, How many percent is that?

It is statistically unlikely that only you have dated 10 girls who where raised by single parents... unless you were specifically targeting girls raised by single moms, for this your claim to be true, you would have had to have dated a remarkable number of girl (circa 20), according to the law of averages.

just saying.

number 4 is epic

hUmaneOne:
I tried hard to make sense of the post

Philosophy student spotted

honjohnbright:
Hello David. Thanks for your observations. I agree with you just that we were told not to use Google analytics. .. adsense. . fb ads and others. just personal goodwill. which involves word of mouth or similar media as NL.

Oh okay... all the best then...i'll do my part

okosodo:
I bet you she will be vindicated. Everything about this government is propaganda and unintelligent witch-hunting

So you mean Buhari hired the UK to witch hunt Ms Madueke? Or what are you trying to say?

MrRomantic:
You guys always want us to follow link, why not post them here?

The writer makes money be producing their work for you to read. One way this income is generated is from advertising revenue that grows when people like you visit their site. When the work is published on nairaland, there is very little financial gain for the blogger/writer.

It won't cost you anything extra to support some honest, hard working person out there, who is actually providing you with value in the form of material you are interested in reading.

ireneony:
I doubt if there's anyone in a relationship without having sex.
i have never met a guy that doesn't want sex in a relationship.

This happened one time..a guy asked me out and i told him i only do relationships without sex.
he was very blunt. .he said" for this town ..for Nigeria. .this kind tin still de happen"
here i was thinking he's the kind of person that does believe in a "without sex relationships" because of his innocent face.

The only time i see or hear WTHOUT SEX RELATIONSHIP is online stories and how ladies turned down men that practice without relationship, I'm like wowwww. Sometimes I'm like how come i don't see this kind of men.

This brings me to my question, how many of you are strictly in a relationship without sex, and how do you cope with the temptations?

Share your experience! !!

All my relationships have been without sex and with my last proper girlfriend, we dated for about 6 months without even so much as kissing because she wanted it that way, and we intended to head for marriage.

It was not easy because i wanted the intimacy of at least being able to kiss my girlfriend whom i loved madly, but i understood and agreed with her reasons for holding it off, and i could bear it because of what we were looking forward to.

Truehands other than the hair this doesn't really look like Hilary Clinton... Wanna try again?

VolTOxic:
I was actually nodding my head while reading the advice until I got to the part about retaining the best man. Like WTF?! That's BS. Don't give a window of opportunity to people who back stab you. Never. They'll do it again.

In fact, the proverb he quoted to back his curious judgement is actually contrary to the judgement!

tosyne2much:
Na dem Sabi jawe

As for me, no lady can try that thrash with me cos no man can share the same kitty-cat with me and will live in the same world with me.. It's either the guy kills me or I kill him. One must definitely happen


Let's do a survey..

Guys, if you bumped into your fiance's room and caught someone bleeping her barely few days to the wedding, would be your reaction ?

Click LIKE, If you and the guy go enter one trouser, otherwise, click SHARE if you will let him go scot free

Ogbeni don't you have more useful things to do with your time than to be fighting someone without profit? E be like say this recession never jam you wella

so a thread is needed to explain why the dodging of bullets in the matrix is unreal?

really??

Turks:
And they left him in that position? Whatever happened to first aid? I mean...Even the OP toook time to take pictures. Na only prayers you fit offer abi?


Well, lemme pray for you too. If the same predicament befalls you (God forbid). May someone leave you sitted, take pictures of you and post it on NL in order to make FP.

Has it occurred to you that the average Nigerian has no first aid knowledge?

Oasis007:


Chai!

It's not French Rice..... rather French Frites. It's a potato chip like Thin cut, Agristo allummetes, spicy wedges etc!

I clicked on the link you provided, and was disappointed in the Newspaper that carried the news! Very misleading..... perhaps both Reporter and the Editor do not understand what Frites is, and thought it was Rice!

kindly correct it on your Title, also in the Post!
Lalasticlala, Mynd44 should take note of the correction before pushing it to FP!

The below in an image of French Frites.

I read your whole post through before realizing with shock that you are serious!

Is it French fries you are calling French frites?
