The pastor must have bought and tried one of the joystick enlargement products and was angry it did not work.

My guy don fall mugu, he is just the rebound guy.

but the rule he is quoting used the word 'neither' and not 'either'...This guy does not understand the rule and is interpreting it backward.

And EFCC is not a ministerial and not subject to the 21 working days criteria.

Order 131 of the Senate Rules states that "nominations neither confirmed nor rejected during the session or within 21 working days in the case of Ministerial nominees shall be returned by the clerk to the National Assembly to the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and shall not again be made to the Senate by the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria"

Nice

LoRdCaT:
So you believe that trash? SMH at ur dumbness.

Did you try to verify it? It is true, CNN and other US online media are reporting it, google is free, use it.

I read some contributions here asking you to patent your idea.

If you are currently employed, be very careful before patenting your idea. Read about the labor laws and how it is applicable to you.

When you paten an idea, it is published to the public domain and if your employer can prove that, you were employed with them, when you come about that idea or any parts thereof, they can lay legal claim to all the idea or a good percentage of it.

Look at it this way, you are a full time employee of that company, they provide you with resources, including trainings and also learning opportunities through exposure to the daily tasks that you carry out for them...it then means, they have a strong legal ground to argue that, your idea was a 'product of work', all they need is a good intellectual property lawyer.

Patent protects you, but also exposes you. Consult a patent lawyer or read your employment letter, employee handbook(s), labor laws and see how they address intellectual property or 'work products' of employee.

If you are in doubts and you think the idea will hit big pay day, quit your job and run with your idea.

I will advise you to be careful.

Slow down and ask yourself, what input or resources can your Boss bring to the table to make the idea a reality that you cannot source yourself independently? If none or close to none, I will advise that you implement your idea, yourself.

Company can take the idea, implement it and give you next to nothing or even nothing and they will be within their rights to do so.

Remember that many great startups started with the sharing of ideas and some lead to the theft of ideas. Facebook and Apple are a good examples, check the history of Facebook, how one friend gave a code he was writing to another friend, who secretly adopted the code and Facebook was borne and the previous friend found himself battling court cases to see if he can redeem any value from his idea.

todayboy:
but you place more emphasis on the pastor than the girl
we celebrate a young that says she sleeps with an old man
its only the court that can prove id he relly sleep with her

To whom much is given, much is expected, so say the Bible. I beg to disagree with you here, the Pastor have more responsibility, blame and questions to answer here, even by Bible standards.

But all we heard him say is that, he does not know the young lady from Adam, but the lady can describe their escapees to a T, even the Man of God's cassava.

The Man of God, have the right to remain silent; but if and when he chooses to open his mouth either directly or through spokesmen/women, he should not insult the collective intelligence of all Nigerians.

We all understand that, we are but flesh and blood and can be tempted at anytime or fall victim to temptations, including Men of God. Even Jesus said 'he that has not sinned should cast the first stone'...but he asked that, we should confess our sins and he will forgive us. And it is possible that the Man of God have done so, in the privacy of his study and even to his wife and they have both forgiven each other and move on, but what about the continual sin of publicly denying it and attacking this lady?

I truly don't know if he did it or not, as I was not there, but there is no smoke without fire. Yes, the lady might have wanted to blackmail the Man of God with this, so it remains a secret; but that does not affect the credibility of her relationship with the Man of God.

The best thing the Man of God can do is, call off his spokesmen/women, don't response to this lady even if she hold 1000 news conference in a day, you don't regain credibility by doing that, allow the matter to die off from the public domain on account of it's own weight. Very soon, something more dramatic e.g. Naira hitting N600/$1 will esclipe this and we will all forget what the Man of God's cassava looks like.

Each attack or counter attack keep refreshing this, let the Man of God be the adult here and stop responding to this.

And BTW, courts don't proof rights or wrong, neither are they there to bring out the truth, that not what courts are for. You might have realized that, they are generally called 'Court of Justice' and not 'Court of Truth'. They examine the evidences that has been properly placed them and render judgement base on those.

Note the highlighted word above, and Yes it means that, even if you have a crispy clear video of someone committing an offense, the mere presentation of that video at trial does not necessarily result into conviction. If you do not follow the proper rule of evidence or proper chain of custody of the evidence, that video can be stricken off the records and the person will be declared not guilty. There are cases where the video can be admitted, but lawyers that knows their worth can successfully argue that, the video should be given limited weight or be used only as a demonstrative evidence and the accused still walks free.

Strahovski1:
Tell her to proceed on the divorce. Infact, help her pay the bills of the law suit

Modified

To those saying it's not enough. I bet 80% of you are single and you have no idea indeed what contents are of marriage. Yes.

Marriage IS NOT a task! Neither is it some kind of Job or Project. It's not a do or die affair. It's a union where 2 happy people come together as 1. So your sister shouldn't be in such union as her happiness has been slain. Why live with a man knowing well, that he is sleeping with another woman? The thought of it alone can lead to depression. Let's be realistic.

Irrespective of how they sort it out and settle the dispute, the scar would always be there. When she see him making a call, she would be suspicious. If she see him greet a woman she would be suspicious. She would always have the thought that he is sleeping with other women though she may not express this. But she would never forget. And this is not good at all. So what is the point? Is it by force? Why live in depression especially when the woman he is chatting with looks better or sexier than she is.

So let her be.

P.s I'm a married man and yet, I don't encourage anyone to stay in a marriage where infidelity looms.

No court will grant a divorce based on sexting That is to tell you how off base she is.

But she can always move out and they leave separately for, is it one year (or two years) as per Nigerian laws and courts can grant divorce base on that separation.

The truth is calling it quit over sexting is rather dramatic and an over reaction, it kind of begs the question what the marriage is worth to her and suggests that, she has been looking for a way out for a long time and might as well cash in on this golden opportunity.

I think I am coming to the same conclusions like you, which is for her to call it quit but for different reasons.

Late president Yar'Adua was smuggled in on 10th march, 2009
President Buhari is smuggled in on 10th march, 2017.

10th march is now "National Smuggling Day"

Take note!

Ediot! Yar'Adua left for Saudi Arabian for treatment on November 24, 2009 and he came back to Nigeria on February 24, 2010.

He could not perform the duties of the Presidency until he passed on May 5, 2010 at Aso Rock and was buried on May 6, 2010.

jidewin:
This is a big lesson for you ungrateful Nigerians who went about bad mouthing Hon. Abike Dabiri.
She sounded the alarm and warning not to proceed to US for now, even despite a valid US Visa, but you castigated her as "ordinary Special Assistant , a nobody".

Between Abike and Onyeama, who would you listen to now as a reliable authority on diasporan issues?

Hope you've learned your lessons.

You are using false flags to validate her lies. The Trump EO does not single out Nigerians specifically and there are no internal memo within the State Department that did that.

What this Nigerians faced is the new normal and Nationals of all other countries are facing the same.

A visa is not a guarantee of entry into any countries, that is the job of the immigration agents and they have lots of discretion while doing their jobs. The only difference now is, they are given wide latitude to apply that discretion.

1. It is not illegal to travel to the US to give birth, but you must have enough money to foot the bill 100%. On average a child's birth cost about 10 to 15k in a US hospital and showing up with $8k will not cut it. If friends in the US will assist you with part of the cost, ask them to send you a letter stating that ahead of time and a proof of that income, don't expect the immigration agent to believe your uncoraborated statements.

2. Book your hotel ahead of time, call on the same night before traveling that your reservations are still valid. Hotel reservations can be mistakenly cancelled, so don't assume anything and he was given an opportunity to make another hotel reservation at the airport, my guess is, he might have been allowed to proceed had that been done. Remember you can also stay with friends, just get their consents and letter stating such.

3. The first guy who said he was detained for 3/4 without knowing the reason(s) is leaving out vital information. The US immigration agent, cannot detain you without asking questions or telling you what they found fishy in your visa application, your past or proposed entry into the US. There is something he is not saying. Also, there are no daily flights between the US and Nigeria, there is usually an interval of about 3 days between flights and as such, if your visa is revolked at the airport, depending on what day of the week it is, expect to spend up to three nights in immigration cell.

4. The US immigration agent does not have the authority to revoke your visa at the airport in the US. You are on US soil and have a right to due process, which means only a judge can do it. You will be given an opportunity to be as to why you think that the immigration agent's allegations are false and be prepare to provide evidence to back your point e.g. If the agent alleges that, they called the hotel and no valid reservation was found for you, do your independent research e.g. calling the hotel yourself, the agent might have dialed the wrong number or got the wrong person at the other end or miss pronounced your name or the other person miss-heard or even the agent doesn't just like you and are lying, be prepare to proof him wrong by making your own calls, you can do this subtlety with him there or directly with the administrative judge, if you decline to sign the form to withdraw your visa application. However, you have the right to admit guilt and violation of certain US immigration laws and withdraw your visa. Hence, they give you that form to complete and since you are admitting guilt, those forms only have one answer..."If you are admitting that you do not have a hotel reservation" there is only one answer to that question. Once you have signed the form, only then can your visa be revoked because you have withdraw your application.

If you choose not to sign the form, they will send you to jail from where you will wait until a judge hears your case and will most likely side with the agent and still send you parking, and will also give you more years on your ban or make it permanent. Most people don't want to sleep in jail to await trial or face the possibility of a life ban, hence they sign the form at the airport admitting guilt, then withdraw their visa application.

Why bother to ask, you are going to do it anyway, it is just a matter of when and where.

In my village, there is an adage that states that..."Never open a door, you don't want to pass through" because once opened, you wouldn't be able to resist the temptation to pass through them, hence you have to leave those doors closed.

In your case, you have already opened the door, good luck on your efforts in resisting to pass through it, we might as well fix a date for you to do the deed here.

Most people only learn by their mistakes...changing his credentials will not change him.

If my manager, who holds the success and failure of the company in his/her hands is that uninformed to going into Ponzi schemes, I will not be working there for too long.

I created this topic here because arsenal has a special place in my heart and I've been faithful to this club for a while now.

However, tonight was an exploit in team annhiliation, it was a show of complete destruction, tonight arsenal was brought to its knees, I personally could not watch the end of the match, it was too painful.


How does one get over a letdown like this How does one cope? Survive all the tauntings and teasing.

Social media has been FLOODED with arsenal snubbing and even now as I speak, I had to hide somewhere to avoid the taunts of people.




Arsenal fans, how do we move on after this

You have way too much time on your hands go look for a real job that will challenge your inner innovations and entrepreneurial spirit.

Tazdroid:
Firstly, congrats on your new job

Secondly, it's not up to the law but the terms of your contract of employment. If none, then the law takes effect which is a month's notice or payment in lieu of notice (that is you pay your basic salary in order to leave immediately)

Thirdly, my candid advice is that you issue your letter of resignation and work for a month. It may seem strange but it depicts a form of respect for your former employer, not leaving in the blink of an eye. Your new employer would be astounded that opting to stay shows that you respect your boss well enough to give 'em time to find a replacement

Payment in lieu of notice is, if your employer wants to sack you without giving you the usual one month notice.

Payment in lieu of notice is not applicable to the employee, if you do not like the job, you can opt out anytime any day and you don't pay the employer as salary back, except loans and other unearned income & benefits already given to you...your last month salary was earned and can't be returned to your employer even if you walk off on payday so long as payday is on or after the last day of that month's salary being collected.

Please endeavour to speak on what you know. You are just trading stock market without basic knowledge of fundamentals. Let the article below explain it to you.




To understand the record-high stock market and soaring business confidence, spend some time with Mike Haynes.

He’s the co-owner of the Haynes Group, a small construction firm in West Bridgewater with 48 employees that renovates buildings all over Boston. He’s downright giddy about Donald Trump and a Republican-controlled Congress.

Here’s what Haynes expects: the end of Washington gridlock. Lower taxes. Reduced health care costs. All of which means small-business owners like himself can grow and hire. Haynes has already done the math. If his taxes go down by 3 to 6 percent, he can add a few more workers.

There’s a narrative out there that Trump won on the backs of the white working poor in rural America. People without a college education, unemployed coal miners, and the ones who had nothing to lose put the bombastic Republican businessman in office.

But plenty of middle-class and wealthy college grads also voted for Trump, many willing to compartmentalize his loathsome statements about women, immigrants, and people of color because they liked his message about jobs and trade. They included Massachusetts residents like Haynes — small-business owners who got tired of slow growth and were willing to roll the dice with a real estate mogul turned reality TV star.

“The guy might be crazy, but he’s not stupid,” said Jack Derby, who runs a Boston management consulting firm that advises about 400 clients in New England, many of them small-business owners. “What Trump is doing is hitting the restart button.”

Strange times we live in. Half the country is in protest mode, worried how a Trump presidency could hurt all the groups he denigrated on the campaign trail; the other half thinks America is about to be great again.

On Tuesday, the National Federation of Independent Business reported that its index measuring small-business optimism soared after Election Day to a level not seen since 2007. The group indicated that more of its members expect to hire, increase sales, and improve business conditions.

That dovetails with a report last week from Associated Industries of Massachusetts, which indicated employer confidence has grown since Trump’s election — the biggest jump in 17 months — buoyed by a rising stock market and low unemployment rate in Massachusetts. The trade group has some 4,000 members, with the average company employing about 50 workers.

Trump has been playing to this audience. While it might have sounded strange to many of us that the president-elect would make reducing regulation a priority in his first 100 days, small-business owners rejoiced. Trump pledged to formulate a rule that for every new regulation created his administration would eliminate two existing ones.

Companies large and small tend to bristle at what they see is meddling by the government. For small businesses, compliance costs can be onerous or take a big bite out of profits, whether it’s the pile of paperwork needed to get a government-backed business loan or meeting Obamacare requirements.

We have regulations for a reason. To protect consumers — or companies themselves — from getting a raw deal. But for some small-business owners, our government has gone too far.

“Governments don’t create value. They don’t create jobs. All they do is take from the system,” said Bruce Stevens, CEO of Berkshire Blanket & Home Co., a Ware company with about 50 employees and $100 million in annual sales. “Regulation is strangling.”

Stevens thinks Trump’s policies can stimulate the economy, and in turn, consumers will feel good about spending again. If they open up their wallets, Stevens can expand and hire.

“This is not rocket science,” he said.

Stevens isn’t even fazed by Trump’s talk about slapping tariffs on products from China, where his company makes most of its blankets and throws. Stevens thinks it was all a “bit of bravado” on the part of candidate Trump, and that his administration will do the right thing on trade.

“Free trade is the way to go, but it has to be fair and honest from one country to the next,” said Stevens.

The only reason Stevens and other companies manufacture in China is to keep consumer prices low. “There isn’t anyone who wants to do it overseas if we didn’t have to,” he said.

But this being Massachusetts, where Trump captured just a third of the votes, I had to ask all these business types how they felt about the social unrest a Trump victory has unleashed. How do you explain endorsing someone who has engaged in locker room talk that demeans women? How do you address the white supremacists who want to take back the country under Trump?

Their bottom line: Give him a chance to prove himself.

“If he doesn’t do well or makes mistakes, the beautiful thing about this country is four years from now you don’t reelect him,” said Stevens.

He’s right, but a lot of damage can be done to our social fabric in four years. But Trump is our president now. Let’s hope that making America great applies not just to the economy, but to the public discourse Trump can lead about the important issues that divide us.

Please endeavour to speak on what you know. You are just trading stock market without basic knowledge of fundamentals. Let the article below explain it to you.

If you want us to compare notes on our stock trading performances, please PM.

Again, Trump's EO are non sense and juvenile.

What you just parroted above are the usual GOP talking points. NAFTA was negotiated by Bush in 1992 and signed into law by Clinton the next year, DJIA was a mere $68 then, it is now about $21,000. So, there has been tremendous growth, in my stock trading, we believe that the US stock market is nearing a ballooning point and we have started watching for signs of over saturation in the system and when to reverse strategy to shorts and puts options. One simple rule about risks is, when interest in risk increases, that is when you start looking the other way or start shorting the risk or buying puts on it....the same can be said of stocks, options, futures, ponzi schemes e.g. MMM, in fact any type of risks.

The current US employment rate is about 4.8%; FED's policies and baseline calculations states that, the US achieves full employment, when the unemployment rate is between 5.0% and 5.2%. Meaning, there are lots of jobs in the system today, for anyone willing to work and who have adapted to the emerging skills required to obtain employment today. Hence, you notice that FED has started hiking US interest rates after leaving them untouched for what looks like an ages now. The people that will loose out big time even with their high hopes under Trumps are those in the manufacturing, coal, etc. Those jobs are on the decline and will continue to be until they fade away, there is nothing Trump can do about them, today's technological advancement have been them near obsolete.

As I indicated before; I clearly understand the pluses of a Trump's Presidency e.g. cheap healthcare, which are bare-bone policies with high deductibles, high medical debts, high medical bankruptcies, caps on benefits, etc...Yes, these policies are good for the business owner because, their employer's contributions become minimal.

But, do be decided that, those savings will translate to more jobs...rather, they will use it to offshore more jobs, because it is cheaper. Plus, Bush gave one of the biggest tax cut to businesses, and it made many millionaires and billionaires; but most of these monies were stockpiled abroad, e.g. Swiss Banks and also in form of carry-trade in a bid to dodge tax payments on these profits....the worst of all, we still got the worst economy recession under Bush.

So, Trump is not doing anything new that any GOP President has not tried before Obama, except than he lacks enough know-how and is too proud to learn or to acknowledge that fact and it is not a sign of weakness to lack know-how or to agree to learn.

You are preaching to the choir.

Yes, regulations cost businesses; but they are there for a reason, they safe lives, ensure basic operating rules, dos and don't.

I don't know if you have visited china recently, Yes their economy is growing on the back of fossil fuel but have you witnessed how people choke on the air pollutants? Google China Air pollution, pictures you will see make some parts of Lagos like paradise.

Governance is not about making profits, it is about improving the quality of life for every citizen. You do not let profit minded companies or businesses make decisions that borders on the quality of the lives of people without regulations, else they will try to cut corners in order to turn in more profits.

Yes, Healthcare will be cheaper again, but have you unwrap those policies and see the contents? If something is cheap, it is for a reason, profit minded businesses like health insurance companies don't sell you cheap coverage out of the goodness of their hearts. Those policies are chunk that you cannot use, they come with high deductibles and with lifetime caps, they discriminate on pre-existing conditions and have bankrupted many in the past before ACA, whose only misfortunes was to get into an accident or fall ill.

Health related bankruptcies fall sharply with ACA, many people who were shut out of the healthcare market because of pre existing conditions finally were able to get insurance. I see that, you brought up Massachusetts, they have one of the best healthcare insurance market in the US and the ACA was modeled after it.

This brings me to manufacturing, NAFTA; if you think that those manufacturing jobs will come back to the US, you better you will be rudely surprise....Minimum wage in China is about $2/hr, about 400% less than what it is obtainable in the US, so even if Trump slap a 100% import tariffs, it will still be about 300% cheaper to manufacture goods in China and even 50% US tariffs will send the US economy and stock market grinding to a halt.

Infact, lots of IT jobs have started moving to China and offshore, I mean traditional brick and Moctar IT jobs...with the advent of Software Defined Networks and cloud tec, a company in the US can have all her firewalls, routers, switches, servers, etc in the cloud and can be admisnisted by anyone anywhere anytime, so fighting to keep manufacturing jobs is a loosing preposition and it makes people blind to the changing landscape and before you know it, it will be too late and they were not prepared for it...Then another President will come and start campaigning on bringing IT jobs back to America and the uninformed bunche who did not train for emerging Technologies and jobs will flock to vote for him or her.

SalamRushdie:
Why don't you start by telling me why you hate Trump so I can be sure it's not Islam or homosexuality that's fueling your hate .. I don't bother going into argument with both groups because there is nothing I can say that will convince them from hating Trump

Dude you failed again at name calling, 1. I don't hate Trump, the truth is, his policies will be good for my taxes i.e. they will lower them; if he repeals ACA maybe I will not be paying for ACA surcharge anymore, I buy and pay for my insurance with my own money and still pay ACA surcharge on it....2. Am a Christian and not a Muslim.

Trump naive, he make up things as he goes, he does not admit his fault and learn from them, he lies too easily to cover his egos and inferiority complex.

Can you imagine this guy ordered a raid that led to the death of a Navy Seal and as the command in chief of the US Armed Forces, he refused to take responsibility for it? No US President has ever done that, the buck stops at the White House period! Now they are planning on Authorizing raids at lower level military officers?

The guy does not trust the US Security Agencies, the same people protecting him, the homeland and foreign interests since before he was born? He trust Putin and the KGB more that the FBI, common you don't see anything wrong with that picture?

I can go on and on, I pray and wish he learns fast for the good of all.

Not true.

Trump signed a lot of EOs on trade that has driven the stock market to new highs

Trillions of dollars in windfall for stock market investor and data shows they are shopping on luxury cars etc.

Pls say what u know. You are out of your depth there buddy

None sense again; I trade in stocks, futures and options; the US stock market has been in upward trajectory since Obama turned the economy around.

The stock markets was a DJIA was a mere 9,000 points when Obama took office and it has been making new highs repeatedly none stop since then. It does not matter who would had won the election, the stock market would have made new highs because the fundamentals of the US economy is strong and Trump has not improved that one bit.

His EO are economy downers, by repealing NAFTA he is practicing Buhari's Economy protectionism, it is not working in Nigeria and does work anywhere.

NAFTA opened other countries markets to US manufactured goods & services and vi-sa-vi and but shorting US doors to these countries, US manucfecturers are been short out too other side.

His immigration EO will kill American, more than half of US professors are immigrants, have you visited any Dr in the US, more than half are immigrants, what about Silicon Valley, CEOs and new blue chip IPO initiators, guess what? They are immigrates.

For a long time, America have an immigration system that attracts the best and brightest from all corners of the world and contributes to brain drain in these countries, H1b visa is one of those tools, but recently; immigrates have started flocking home.

Continual crackdown on migrant workers from mexico is sending food prices up as these people worked like slaves and are paid fractions of minimum wages and no American citizen or legal immigrants are willing to take those farm works, but they can earn better elsewhere.

SalamRushdie:
Go and play in the bush abeg .you gay people will not kill me with laughter
...Oh you think we don't know where it's paining you

When you guys don't have anything intelligent to contribute to the conversation, you return to your animist instincts and start calling people names.

I am sorry to disappoint you, am not gay; a full blooded and pure breed heterosexual and never has been one or dream of been one.

Now, let's go back to the conversation at hand, do you have anything intelligent to contribute?

SalamRushdie:
Go check the economic indices..America is growing at a really fast pace under Trump. Please and there is nothing any closer homosexual or terrorism lover is going to do about it

None sense, Trump too office on January 20,2027, barely a month ago; there are no economic data or indice out there that can directly be tied to Trump's contributions to the US economy.

Infact, he has not signed any policy or act into law that contributes to the economy.

His executive actions so far are hurting the US economy badly.

SalamRushdie:
Why don't you tell us what is dumb about what he said ?

Did Obama tap his phone ? Yes

Was it wrong ? Yes

Hope you can see you are the one being dumb here

US Presidents do not have the power to order or cause to put a wire tap on any US citizen's phone.

Yes! Trump is dumb.

This law was put in place to protect US citizens from the likes of Trump.

Trump is panicking and just grappling at straws in order to catch a breath from his disastrous administration.

So one must join Union before been buried?

Maybe, you are looking at it differently. These union member pay dues and task themselves monthly and in some cases weekly, this way they bound together in order to be able to help their members during the time of crisis.

It is not fair to members for someone who had not paid dues or sacrifice on behalf others to them come from no where and benefit. If it is allow, the union will fall by its own weight as some people will not pay their dues or contribute their quota..thinking "afterral they will benefit".

I also doubt that people were restricted on individual bases to help or go to his burial, just that the union does not want to be part of it. If you not a member is ikoyi club, it is hypocritical to be surprised if they slam the door against your face.

In 2014, the Nigeria Supreme Court invalidated this Igbo custom and rule that, females can inherit their parents property.

This case does not even stand to test of the above Supreme Court case...in the court case, the court said males and females have equal rights to inherit their parents properties, in this instance the property belongs to the lady and does not even fall under the old Igbo custom, I think greed on the part of the brother is at play here and has nothing to do with custom or culture.

What next? Asking her to empty her bank account and give it all to the family on the eve of her wedding or hand over her car(s) as she is about to say 'I do'?

Though I believe this is a fictional made up story just to farther response and internet traffic.

I pity you, if you know what black are going through you will never opted to do so, and to make the matter worst you now choose a name from Nigeria.. Ha yah yah yaaah! I know you nothing about your choice of name and the country.. I beg heat won kill me no light..

I remember when this first broke in 2015 in the US, she has been living most of her life as black and has been identifying as such until her parents outed her.

She was an accomplished young lady and was NAACP chapter President. Her parents were mad at her because, she made up her mind not to associate with them, she cut all ties with them and not able to take it anymore, they had to out her...and things went downhills for her since then.

So, this is not a new territory for her, hopefully the change of name will rejuvenate her life.

O boy na hunger, e get the kind hunger wey go hammer you eh, you go loss all your senses; you fit dey answer Yes Sir, Yes Sir to small pickin self.

As economy begin improve small small all these Ponzi schemes go go down sha.

Why arrest the attack dog, when you have agreed that, you know who sponsored the attack?

The poor lady who got arrested was just earning her daily bread and making her to sign an undertaking is meaningless without hold the sponsor accountable.

The sponsor can now go 'coded' or hire someone who have money to rebuff police harassment in the future.

If you want all these to stop, I have a common sense solution, arrest the sponsor and make her sign an undertaking.

May God grant them sense....

Visiting South Africa for what? To beg them to take it easy on Nigerians there?

All you would have simply done is to summon South Africa Ambassador in Nigeria to the Senate, put him in the hot seat with questions and give him one week ultimatum to rectify the issue.

Let them know that, South Africa interest and businesses in Nigeria will be subjected to the same treatment.

Use the power of trade to force the South Africa government that, licenses and operations of South Africa businesses will be affected may not be protected by the Nigerian security, if Nigerians and their businesses are not accorded the same protections in South Africa.

Take note

Thanks my able Secretary, when you finish your current assignment; make sure to proof read and correct, spelling or syntax or grammatical errors in my other posts.

I don't see the doom or damages you so talked about.

I think this is ingenuity born out of necessity to conserve time, space and money. Remember that, all these came to prominence with the advert of cell phones/SMS, where you are forced to pass-on a complete events just with 160 characters, plus sending a second SMS is costly.

We all saw it during the days of telex, but too many people did not notice it then, because telex were not as prevalent as cell phones are today.

Also, the words been abbreviated are commonly used words with no complex structures to them, so the concern of them been missspelled by someone who by their educational standards would have known better is over blown.

Go for an STD checkup and don't play Russian roulette with your life and future.

Moreso, if you love her and don't want to lose her, then doing an STD test with haste, will be the best option right now, as you will then be in a better position to alert her to any problem should the result say so; this way, she can commence the necessary treatment.....and the tests are not expensive and can be done anonymously...

[Hint]
book an appointment in a city/hospital where the likelihood of you seeing/meeting a familiar face is next to nothing.

A stitch in time saves life...enuff said!

There is this other thread https://www.nairaland.com/3654040/3million-nigerians-living-hiv-aids, which indicates that, individuals living with HIV in Nigeria have hit 3mil, am not in anyway saying this is the case here....but my point is, if the rate of HIV is that high, think of how higher the rate of the other STDs will be?
