Symphony007: I think the british parliamentary system is better! It makes for more accountability as party leaders get to debate themeselves regularly. It is more efficient as the ruling party governs without obstruction from the opposition. Elections are fought over ideology and performance of a party, not if you like who will be the prime minister because he can be changed by the party anytime.

Congress Is a cumbersome and slow governing system. There is also a tendency that no single party will control the presidency, senate and house of representatives, so it gives the opposition powers to obstruct the policies of the ruling party( this has been the hallmark of the obama presidency)... Elections are at times not fought over policies but which presidential candidate is more likable or has nicer hair. The president is not accountable to congress, only his cabinet ministers are. Governing is very slow as every bill must pass two houses of congress and it's harder when two parties control each house. There are many more.....

You spoke my mind, accountability is what I love about parliament. Imagine our president going to senate and having to explain for hours why certain issues are not resolved. Sometimes I feel sorry for uk prime minister where someone would tell him he isn't doing his job.

And some of you wonder how Boko haram are able to brain wash their members? Religion is a powerful tool of mind control.

Fans of the blacklist you need to watch the trailer of season two episode one (lord Baltimore )

NUT are just tactically trying to remove blame from themselves in the future. There is no reason why they shouldn't resume given how the federal government and lagos state government have controlled the Ebola crisis. They teachers don't want to be blame in the future should any student or pupils contact Ebola (but how would that happen), they will say the government failed to provide them with the necessary facilities.

naijababe: Oh my God! Lost Girl S2 E21, this series is like POI meet GOT...........mehn I am even keeping vigil over it.

Since you love the show this much, I will check it this week for sure , if I don't like it , you gonna refund my money .

Thumbs up to the military, a good victory for them. At least they've shown they aren't cowards and can match those useless idiots called bh

Gloria3389: may God protect our little ones who play with anyone without caution..
I'll suggest resumption should be postponed till the end of Ebola

Or better still don't send your kids to school till after Ebola

That was expected even though the prosecutors wanted guilty for murder charge. To me the judge did well. It's left for the prosecutors to either appeal or not.

Domestic violence , either way it goes, the women always get benefits of the doubt which unfortunately some tend to abuse it.

BluIvy: There is no death sentence in SA.

Thanks, I just assumed there was.

anyaekekehinde: Anger,

True, anger , but anger is very hard to prove in court of law without real time video evidence. Just like accusing a white person of killing a black person because of racism, how can it be proven that was racism the instigated the killing.

Things of the heart are difficult to prove, he could have killed her out of jealousy or suspicion of her cheating.

freecocoa: Yea well, whatever be the case, that dude must be put in jail for something or else, that judge should sleep with no eyes closed after her verdict.

Find him guilty of neglecting his girlfriend or something, going about the house shooting without caring who gets shot should be an offense.

Of course, he isn't going to walk free but had he been found guilty of premeditated first degree murder, the sentence could be life imprisonment.

He would be guilty of manslaughter which has a lesser punishment than murder.

I'm just thinking, if indeed I plan to kill my girlfriend, as a a celebrity, why won't I hire an assassin to carry out the killing with no trace. Why do it in my room with my own gun.....

He did murder his girlfriend but did he plan? This the question of which the judge says no.

Oscar not guilty of premeditated muder

Chai , oyibo men scam us

Kizmarty: are you serious about that or you just looking for my mouth?

smh

I'm serious, lot of teachers are out there without salary, they can't get paid for sitting at home. So we expect them to just bear it. We are lucky the Ebola virus has been contained to barest minimum, if public places like market and universities are not closed down, why should the primary and secondary school be.

Kizmarty: what makes sense then











shifting the resumption has more than enough advantages.

What are the advantages?

Seriously postponing the resumption date doesn't make sense.

We are just going about this all thing in wrong way. What are we trying to achieve by postponing the resumption date for secondary and primary schools? Protect the children? Wha makes the children more vulnerable to Ebola in school than when when they are at home?

Why are public places still wide open, if the government truly cares about containing Ebola, why not close than public places like banks, markets, work places.

For a child to contact a Ebola, he has to make contact with an adult, what is the government doing to ensure theses adult don't contact Ebola.

The north and part of east, west, and south have no reported case of Ebola, why should their schools remain close?

No reason to get emotional in defence of apple. Truth be told , Iphone users would love to see an upgrade in the phone specs. When i first had an ipad mini, I berated the specs, ram was just 512mb , camera was 5mp. After using it for s while, I came to realise its not about specs, the camera in broad day light was better than 8mp Samsung sII. I never had issues with the speed.

jcgodfrey: Strange names

true, I have always wondered what the future of tv shows will be be, with many tv showe names taken, weird titles is what we going to see.

Sweetlemon: You'd really believe anything! When was the last time a politician (especially a PDP politician) agreed to agreements in Nigeria?

u.

Exactly my thought, ribadu placing his trust on whatever agreement he made with pdp or fintiri is very naive, I mean trust is not part of a Nigerian politician. The moment they taste power, it very hard to relinquish it.

Pdp had several agreement in the past which was what led to the crisis in pdp leading to the formation of G5. Likewise gej insisted he won't contest for the 2015 elections but here we are.

It's attacking ability looks good but what's its defensive ability ? Like when it gets attacked, something like a missile defence shield.

There would also be new comers, good, bad and ugly ones. We can only know how good they are if we see them. List new tv shows this fall

vanguard newspaper should be ashamed of themselves.

I hope you all that had one or two inconveniences will make proper arrangements, no more I'm in South Africa and test is in lagos excuse.

I'm pretty sure this postponement will affect some people's plan.

Funny things is Nigerians won't be quick to broadcast this news as they were in broadcasting the suspected Ebola Case yesterday.
Good to know all is well.

I'm already regretting reading this thread. Smh.

We can't do everything. Regret is part of life.

Nigerians, we are sometimes just bitter for no reason. If those couples were white, most of you criticizing them will react differently.
Proposing in this nature is meant for the public to see, prove to her that you can let the world know she is getting married to you. It takes different form. They chose shop rite because they wanted lot of people to see it.
You guys should chill, if you don't like it, warn your boyfriend not to attempt it.

If you want to start a fresh doing same course, not a good idea, better just go on with your master degree. But if you want change field of study then starting afresh is alright as long as you're comfortable with it age wise. Your age is a factor too.

Do they monitor chats as well. People don't have to communicate via a phone call to pass messages. With the public knowing of this info from ncc, evil doers will simply stick to BBM chat and that isn't easy to monitor.

We wish you luck with Goodluck while you try.
