My current opinion: If it stops being fun and there's no ring involved, GET OUT OF IT.

the trauma is even worse when they get to see the rapist everyday. I think there's a need for her to ignore the pain of the event and discuss it with at least one cool-headed member of the family so she can start to heal. And she should cut off the rapist.

nassiwa:
If he is trying to befriend her then it could be for a good cause. This guy might come out and apologize to her. he should be feeling sorry for what he did and wants to make peace with her.

I find that hard to believe.

sadyeek:
I belive this is just wester media figures, which is far from the reality on ground. Just like how uncle jonah say single digit infflation stats while if u enter market. E don nearly enter tripple figures. Lol! (Hypotetically)

What else ccould they want again? Be honest, if you could get thoes things in nigeria wouldn't you want the person to be there for 100years?


Just my own opinion sha!

I wont. Why will someone just keep ruling me forever? Does that mean there are no better individuals? Every nigerian should have equal right to contest for the post not have some1's family rule forever.

LoveKing:
U.S.A is the tyrant, NATO is the tyrant. We all should stand behind Gadaffi. U.S.A doesnt want a United States of Africa

We dont want that too.

And now the dominoes start falling.

Expecting to see more african tyrants fall (lots of them propped up by libyan cash e.g Chad, Gambia).

I couldnt care less whether NATO removed him or the rebels.

All that matters is that he's gone and one more Arab nation is free of tyrants.

All eyes on Assad now.

Yes, Yes. Blame it on the chinese.

Losers.

odumchi:
Here is an accurate/modern presentation of the population of Igboland.

Anambra- 8.5 million

Imo State-5.2 million

Abia State-4.3 million

Ebonyi-4.4 million

Enugu-5.6 million

Rivers-5.8 million (4.7 million Igbos)

Delta- 3.8 million (2 million Igbos)

Total-35 million Igbos in Igboland + 7.3 million Igbos in Lagos + a possible 3 million throughout Nigeria = 45 million Igbos in Nigeria. Making Igbos 29 % of Nigeria.

yawn.

unsubstantiated statistics as usual. waiting for a fellow Yoruba or a Hausa dude to show up with another set of falsified stats. all of us lying for sectional purposes.

mscheew.

I guess FIFA felt really insulted by our last match and have scheduled a comprehensive beating for us.

A Daniel has come to judgement.

This will be fun.

both

medicine not yet started. not sure about law but i dont think they've started. biochemistry is the closest you can get at the moment.

efisher:
Well said. The only way to be sure is to drill the explo/ appraisal wells and conduct well production tests. Till then, I'm on siddon look mode.

So we are waiting for the company rich enough to gamble in Kwara with a few 100 millions. hmmmn interesting.

mr sirdam:
@kodewrita I have never read or heatd about china, brazil or india having over 200 ethnic groups

mr sirdam:
@kode writer its obvious u r illiterate. One of or main causes of regression is tribalism, well

China is 98% Han but there are other tribes (so many) ethnic koreans in the east, tibetans, uighurs, mongols, a few tajik tribes , Manchu in the northwest.

India has hindu as the main language but there are at least 18 other major languages including tamil, bengal, gujarat among other languages.

Brazil is mostly portuguese but there are so many different native indian tribes along the amazon. at least 30 different indian tribes who do not share languages.

Switzerland, 300 years of peace, 3 different languages French, German, italian.
Belgium, more than 100 years of internal peace, french and flemish.
Japan, Mostly Ainu, but with koreans, okinawa, and some burakumin (descendants of the original indigenes) . So many years of development.

D sage:
@kodewrit,dont say wat u dont kno,92.8 &ova 60% of entire population of china&india belong to d same ethnic group respectively.Also brazil dnt hav 200 ethnic group.So why cant u find d fact b4 takng your dirty finger com type rubbish for here.

You are clearly not used to being corrected. Pay attention to what I wrote above. Thats how to respond to comments on nairaland not by insulting people.

**rolls up sleeves**

let's see:
[list]
[li]Religious reasons[/li]
[li]I can expose him/her more than a class would. His/her age mates learn about pyramids from a book, I take him/her there.[/li]
[li]I am not restricted by curriculum and can teach him/her stuff his/her brain can handle even if the state doesnt expect him/her to be that smart yet.[/li]
[li]Lower costs.[/li]
[li]More moral input[/li]
[/list]

I can always send the dude/chick to a military boarding school /Kings college to meet up with people and essentially make connections.

PointB:
^^^
Explain homeschooling in the context of formal education.

Providing better teaching and education under your own roof and bringing the child to common entrance exams to beat and impress his less-trained colleagues.

Done everywhere in the world. Illegal in Imo state, Nigeria.

If i choose to get my kid a private tutor, your governor says that would be a crime.

At the end of the day, its a personal choice.

D sage:
Hav u ever see a country comprises of over 200 ethnic group wit diffrent idiology developed?Also u ve see a country progressive without revolution?D point is dat,until we allow disintegration/confederalism as wel as complet mental&physical revolution,Nigeria may never develop.

India
china
brazil
all multiethnic, all suceeding. Find another excuse.

kodewrita:
the last part is the only part I can attempt the rest is either jumbled up or poorly transcribed.

'Wa riran' means 'you'll see'(threat) or 'come and see' (either as command or more like "gain understanding".

Just checked your other posts and this language is not yoruba, its arabic

we to be:
Can someone translate this to english language, wajasahum bimo sobarun janata wahriran

the last part is the only part I can attempt the rest is either jumbled up or poorly transcribed.

pleep:
I want to open everyones eyes to the hidden truth about our position in the world.

The international economy is based on capitalist principles, and the world is a macrocosm of what occurs in a capitalist nation. Capitalism is like a pyramid, the only way it can work is if the base is larger than the top. The people at the base do the grunt work, they are the factory workers, seamstresses etc, they do physically demanding work that does not require much education and skills, this is the lower class. The middle class is the management, while the top of the pyramid is the elites, investment bankers, stock brokers and CEO's, who use the work of the poor to create products to sell back to them for profit.Inevitably the divide between the richer and poorer gets wider (this is a proven fact).

This same principle applies to nations, the bottom of the Pyramid is Africa and the 3rd world countries, who mindlessly export raw materials. Economic policy that does not require much thought or education, and is physically demanding on the environment. While the top is japan, America and Europe, who use those raw materials to create products to sell back to Africa for a profit. At the end of the day there is a net loss for Africa, and gain for the north. Slowly the divide between the wealthy nations and the 3rd world widens.
in 1980 Africa was at 10% below the poverty line now it is at 80 %.
In this capitalist system the continued wealth of Europe and America depends on the continued poverty of the rest of humanity, because the base must be bigger than the top. The emergance of China to to top of the pyramid means even more problems for Africa, because the base must widen. Expect to see starvation in Nigeria 20 years from now.
Do you guys think i would go on an American forum and try to convince them that they should turn socialist? Never, because they actually benefit from capitalism. But to hear Africans supporting capitalism is like hearing a poor hungry sweatshop worker payed 2$ an hour, praising the unregulated capitalist economy of the united states in the late 19 century.

the bolded is the only problem. Create industries to use those and its mostly solved. That is what we should focus on not upturning the whole system. SUch a change will last a decade at least of political upheaval and strife. Whats the point of that?

So homeschooling is not allowed

I guess you are ok with gearbox issues.

people thot so too in New York in the eighties and then the nineties saw a markedly sharp drop in incidents. It will reach a tipping point if the right things are done and come back down.

pleep:
haha, thats what they said in Russia.

And see where it got them. 3rd world country with nuclear weapons and their males dying of vodka.

pleep:
No, reccesions are just nature trying to correct itself.

And there are no such corrections in communism. why do you think they survived starvation in russia in the 70s? simple by allowing the workers keep a little more of what they produced . Even the Politburo realised that they couldnt possibly expect communism to succeed. Wars only prolonged the inevitable and the mighty USSR crashed over bread protests.

pleep:
I see you gave an indirect answer. You guys need to stop lying to yourself. Nigeria's economy is not based on anything inventive, ingenuitive or w/e

So communism with its "rules from the top" approach is going to make nigerians inventive

pleep:
The richest people in the country are usually also the dumbest.

Its easier to believe that than to accept that these are a set of natively intelligent individuals who use their understanding of human relations and the inner workings of power to devastating effect to enrich themselves.

pleep:
And by hording all the wealth they prevent money from reaching the poor inventive people who could use that money to build bussinesses and make employment which would create a nice mixed capitalist/communist economy.

Money is not a finite resource and its value is only realised when given out. Create something they have to pay for and you'll get the money. simple.

We dont need craigslist, we got nairalist(Proudly Nigerian).
