Hello, I'm Steven. I started python like around 3wks. I'm using Colt Steele's Modern Python Bootcamp and it's really exciting,very little difficulties so far. My progress is slow though, due to me devoting time for my schoolworks(comp. sci., 100l) I'd loved to be in the group so we could help each other. 09096679813 |

Literature / What's Going On? (a Short Story) by KolaSteven(m): 1:56pm On Jul 21, 2017 |
Hi, I'm Steve. This is my first story here on NL. I want you guys to review this. Constructive criticism, please. Thanks. What's going on? Marvin Gaye's voice resonated softly in background as he stared down at the items on the table in front of him. Death in various forms stared back at him gleefully. To him, it seems like Death knows that he has won this round, and he revels in it. Gloating bastard! .....There's far too many of you dying You know we've got to find a way To bring some loving here today.... No way for him to find. Everyone that matters has died. Even he is just a living shell. He has died within. He glanced once more at the table. The big kitchen knife, his machete, the pistol he was issued while still military service, and the liquid poison in the green bottle. He was at the bridge earlier this morning. People were milling around like he had this big 'suicide' placard on. Every step he took to vault himself over the bridge railings was been monitored keenly. No one was taking chance since the TeeBliz incident. ....Picket lines and picket signs Don't punish me with brutality.... You already did! Brutalised i am! He was assailed by the dark memories ****************************" He was just getting home when his neighbour rushed to him and told him that he saw both of his twin sons been accosted and interrogated by some crowd at Ikorodu. It sounded incredulous at first. He was just arriving from his boys valedictory service where they had cleared the awards between them. They twin boys had progressed with their fellow graduates to their beach party while the school principal had delayed him for a tea meal. So how come his boys are at Ikorodu? His neighbor was swearing on his life that he saw the boys with his eyes and he even had his glasses on. Then like a sledge hammer, it hit him. His boys are on dreadlocks! Theirs are the natural ones. The ones from birth. He hadn't shaved them off on the advice of the white garment prophet and his wife's insistence. Having lost two pregnancies before the twins, they weren't willing to take chance. He had planned on shaving them after their high school education. He drove like a maniac as he headed to Ikorodu leaving motorists, and pedestrians alike, spewing sulfurous curses in his wake. "Not today, oh Lord, not my sons!" He prayed feverishly as he applied pressure on the accelerator. The car sped fast and furiously, as swift as an arrow. ******************************* .....Ya, what's going on Ah, what's going on... Marvin Gaye's silky voice floated up to him. He has no tears left in him, his tear glands has dried up already. What's going on? Marvin Gaye seems to ask him. The memories washed over him again. *************************** He arrived there just in time to see two boys under a pile of tyres, while the irate mob screamed their defiance to the heavens. He looked at the boys faces desperately. His knees sagged with relief. Of course his boys could never be in this kind of spot. They are quite peace loving and full of life. They are on dreads, sure, but theirs is natural. He reclined on a tree trunk as he watch the proceedings. The hyperexcited crowd howled wolfishly, screaming for blood. Barbaric people. He mused to himself. What happened to the court of law? This is one of the reasons the country is not progressing. Two police officers stood nearby munching greedily on roasted corns while washing it down with Chelsea dry gins. Bastards! He spat! Another reason while the country is not progressing. Dumb law enforcers! He couldn't stomach it anymore as he watched the alleged Badoo cultists been set on fire, writhing with their pupils dilated with terror. He suddenly felt like throwing up. He shuffled his feet hastily. He had to get out of this hell ASAP! No sooner had he moved towards his car than he heard another uproar down the street. The savage mobs surged towards the direction. Instinct told him to follow. It was a mad rush. They all sped down the alley, a cul-de-sac. And lo, his twins were before him, almost beaten to the point of deformation. And tyres were on them! ********************************************* ....Mother, Mother everybody thinks we're wrong Oh, but who are they to judge us Simply because our hair is long Oh, you know we've got to find a way To bring some understanding here today..... How so much Marvin Gaye speaks of his memories! No strength was left in him. No tears to shed. Marvin Gaye keeps dragging down the cesspit of the dark memories. Like he wants him to live through it. But no! He is going to die through it. Reminiscing the memories is a mild form of torture for him. ...Picket lines and picket signs Don't punish me with brutality Talk to me So you can see What's going on Ya, what's going on Tell me what's going on... ************************************ He shoved blindly and wildly as he started towards his sons, his only crowbegotten kids! Hot tears threatened to blind him. He was almost near them when he stumbled. He landed hard before his two sons. He reached out with a hand trying to make a contact. His sons looked up, hope brightening their faces as their eyes widen with recognition. "Papa, save us!" They chorused. "We know nothing on what's going on here." He stood up, his sons' Messiah. No one was hearing him out, they were only focused on the two 'criminals' before them. He started to protest, failed attempt! He was shoved and bundled off. His children's cries for help succeeded him. His hands were tied! Fire blazed up, dancing brighter and brighter. Until it was a conflagration of fire. The mad barbarians howled their delight. He screamed his desperation. What's going on? He was losing it! What's his sods' offence? They were on dreadlocks! The tears flowed as his life crumbled down in his presence. He watched the stupid mass of savages, whose government has given them a target to vent their vexation and aggression on. One stupid reporter was fumbling with his camera. He jumped on the reporter, tearing the camera from his grasp. He howled as he smashed the camera on the reporter's head repeatedly. The terrified reporter scrambled away. He saw the police officers still munching their stupid corns, laughing heartily. Bastards! He leaped on the one closer to him, dealing him heavy blows. Something hit him hard on his back. He welcomed the resulting pain as he slugged the police officer heavily. His screams turned to cackles, mad cackles, as he saw blood staining his hands. The officer's face was a pulpy mass of flesh. He screamed his satisfaction. Something hit him heavily on his head. He howled his derision as he blanked out. *************************************** .....I'll tell you what's going on - Uh Right on baby... His life is desolated. His wife has died. Had cardiac arrest upon hearing the news. He is also dead as he is now. He is just a living shell. Now he is going to be a dead shell. Two seconds later, the knife was embedded to the hilt in his chest.. What's going on? Marvin Gaye's voice fades out as his life trickles into oblivion. |

Nairaland / General / Advice For The Homecoming Nigerian Americans!!! by KolaSteven(m): 7:23pm On Nov 10, 2016 |
Good afternoon to everyone, especially Nigerian Americans. They need it most. Happy elections. Don't think I'm crazy for greeting you happy elections, in Nigeria we greet people about everything. You have to get used to this now because you are coming back home. So, Eku election. I very much understand that you will soon be sent packing from there, so I have taken it upon myself to prepare you for the transition. You have just a little time left there, utilize that time to learn more about Nigeria that you are coming back to. In Nigeria, we don't have light. Buy power bank while coming. Don't say I didn't tell you. Buy power Bank from there because the ones here are just like your marriages, they don't last. Buy a quality one from the abroad when coming. Also, make sure you charge your phone full before coming here. You should also save money for generator. Buy rechargeable lamps and plenty torchlight too. Also, save enough money for subscription. There is no free WiFi here. For those of you that will be settling in Lokoja, Jidenna and Co, I'll advice you to buy a glo line. Their network is strong. Save enough money for emergency transport. You will be deported to Nigeria and by the time you get to the airport, you will need to board a keke from the airport to the badagry refugee centre, from where your ancestors had been shipped to America before. Fuel don cost, transport don increase. Do you eat moi moi? Learn it. In Nigeria you cannot sit down and order pizza anytime you want. The only order you can make is when you yell to the moi moi seller across the road to bring hot moi moi for you. Learn proper home training. In Nigeria the only time the police will arrest your parents for hitting you is after you are dead already. And they will later settle the case as "a family affair". If you think you can come here to speak 'innit' for your parents, it's the neighbours that will help them beat you. Are you a graduate? Doesn't matter. There is no job. Your American accent will not give you a job, except your father knows someone who knows another person that knows a politician, you won't have a job. Dear American Lover Boy, Nnewi girl will not go Dutch with you. As a matter of fact, no Naija girl will go Dutch with you. You have to prove your masculinity by paying for the date. No one is splitting the bills with you when you take a girl on a date. Learn the Nigerian names of common products. No one will sell "sausage rolls" for you. If you can't call it the Nigerian name- "Gala", no one would have time for you. Noodles is "Indomie". Pasta is "spaghetti". All seasoning is "maggi". Dear American girl, you cannot dress anyhow you like. Your neighbours will eye you. The random old woman in the market will hiss at you. The random lady in the bus will preach to you. The area boys will jeer you. You might want to report "harassment" to the police, they will arrest you for indecent dressing. Dear lovers, in Nigeria we don't show public display of affection. You cannot be kissing your boyfriend under the rain. The old woman passing by will invoke thunder to strike the both of you. These are some of the basic tips to help you adapt after you have been deported. #More to come. |

Education / Re: YABATECH Post Utme 2021/2022 Screening Thread by KolaSteven(m): 2:36pm On Nov 05, 2016 |
OK. Lemme help you guys out. According to my uncle"s friend in the school, this is the school's point grade system. Your UTME score is 60points. E.g. 200/400 * 60 = 30points. Your O-level result is 30points, A1-6points, B2/B3-4points, C4/C5/C6-1point. 5 relevant subjects. Maths, English and any 3 compulsory subjects. 1 sitting-10points 2 sittings-3points The departmental cutoff points will be determined by the number of candidates the department can house. For competitive courses like Computer Science and engineering courses, expect around 60points as the cutoff. 1 Like |

Politics / Aisha Wins In The 'other Room' As Buharí Reshuffles Cabinet! by KolaSteven(m): 3:09pm On Oct 26, 2016 |
President Muhammadu Buhari has begun to fish for replacements for under-performing and ‘unknown’ ministers in his cabinet, Sahara Reporters writes. It reports that the move follows outcry that has trailed the performances of his ministers in the last one year. President Buhari and his ministers. Quoting unnamed sources, Sahara Reporters reports that President Buhari’s decision is based on not just public uproar but also the first lady Aisha’s fierce condemnation and the complaints of members of the ruling All Progressives Congress This development comes just days after the controversy that trailed an interview granted by Aisha to the BBC Hausa Service in which she claimed that unknown people have taken over her husband’s cabinet. While the President did reply his wife in the most unusual manner, it however gave him some concern over where his government is headed and he has now decided to weed out ‘useless’ elements from his kitchen cabinet. While there are yet to be names mentioned for those to leave the cabinet, expected to be high on the least are ministers who have been embroiled in scandals and those who are consistently under-performing. |
