St.latyv:
Two explosion nd witin few hours obama was out to address d americans. A bomb blast at a church at bauchi today nd i gues some in borno. was Gej out to address nigerians? Wat a country

moodswing: I disagree. Goodluck Jonathan is educated yet he he's about to grant Boko Haram Amnesty.


Obama is highly educated, yet he pitched tent with homosexuals.


Idiocy has become part of human existence, and that's the major cause of bad leadership.

eko ilee: The abuja stadium is still a mess unless you have pictures to show us stating its current state.

That's even irrelevant, the question is, why was the stadium neglected and let rot .? why? where was the government? where was the sports ministry.? where was football federation.? After spending billions on repairs, It's still going to be neglected all over again because the sane lazy, corrupt and incompetent people are still in charge.

thelastPope: This point is that these stuff have not really existed over the years. Most of these stuff are really starting from scratch. That is one credit people dont give to the current FG. People comment like they have been in power forever. Most of these projects they have started are less than 2 years old. I am waiting to personally critic the new portal. I dont expect it to be wow, but I do expect it to be functional and to provide the right information and services. If it provides the services as listed in the announcement and it works well, I will commend them. I dont care much about the aesthetics. But if the function and services dont work, I will give them the stick.

thelastPope: It isnt about defending them. It is about round pegs in round holes. Just because you critic something doesnt make you right. I dont like the website, but the criticism is wrong for 2 reasons:

1. They just announced they are launching a new web portal on the 16th. If you have to criticize, then that is the one to critic when it is launched.

2. Main govenrment websites are never designed to be sleek and elaborate. It isnt an entertainment site. Each agency is responsible for their own web portal. All you need is some kind of synergy. That is why I posted the USA government website. It isnt sleek and isnt so elaborate. Each agency have their own portals. Only some central issues are handled on the main government website.

So there is nothing wrong with criticism, but this thread is unnecessary. If anything, a thread to critic should be opened after the launch of the new portal. Criticism against government isnt the new intelligence like some of you think. lol

thelastPope: Not true at all. Most of you just spew wrong information.

http://www.usa.gov/

That is the American government site. Doesnt pay host to all other sites. It is actually a simple site without any flare. Each department has a responsibility to promote their own site

dangaye: [b]What is so special about English langauge [/b]that my southern folk love to cherish so well most often to the detriment of their African langauges?
The Hausa people always prepare to respect their culture by preserving their native langauge rather than subjecting themselves to imperialism to use the Colonists langauge. That is why th British Government always respect them. Because anybody that abandones his culture, that person has lost his identity.

parki: because Igbo and Yorubas are more enlightened and even though we speak our native languages, a najority of us understand and speak English perfectly. So we don't really need it. Hausas on the other hand need it do because only a few of them can understand or speak english Language. That's just my opinion on why we have BBC hausa and don't have for the other tribes. I may be wrong.

The Nigeria Football Federation has withdrawn its team from the 2014 African Nations Championship qualifiers due to financial constraints.
Nigeria were set to play Ivory Coast in Calabar between 21-23 June, in the tournament for locally-based players.
The NFF's Emeka Inyama announced that the withdrawal was taken by the football authority to cut costs.
"We have a lot of financial commitments and we have to look at the competitions in order of importance," he explained.

ola_pluto: Your argument on mutual consent is flawed! Consent can be gotten by persuasion in all three instances I gave. It still doesnt make it right. Homosexuality is an aberration in all aspect. Human body is not designed for it. It causes serious medical conditions, most of which are sadly being suppressed by the media.

naptu2: I remember that she diplomatically rejected the Emir of Kano's gift (a horse).

I remember the poll tax riots of 1989 (boy, that wasn't funny).

British Leyland, British Airways/British Caledonian, Jaguar, etc were all owned by the government before Mrs Thatcher's privatisation programme kicked in.

Basically, her idea was to cut government spending and shore up its finances by privatising state owned companies, increasing taxes and cutting benefits for the poor.

Her measures boosted businesses and the rich, but were unfavourable to the poor. Mrs Thatcher said that the effects of her policies would trickle down (I.e when the rich and businesses get more money, they'll employ more workers and also buy more stuff). Someone (wish I could remember who) responded that, in Thatcher's plan, the rich are like a horse eating something, while the poor are waiting for what will trickle down the other end of the horse (the anus).

Okija_juju: On Judgement day, All Mentally challenged persons (Ndi Ara) are all heading to hell.

REasons;

1. The Bible attributes Madness to demon possesion so I dont think a Demon possessed person will enter heaven.

2. Heaven is a happy place for cool Christians. NO NDI ARA ALLOWED.

obadiah777: BEING MENTALLY CHALLENGED WAS JUDGEMENT HANDED OUT TO THEM

Billyonaire: No one is stopping you from joining politics brov, why complaining. Join the winning party. How long will you keep complaining and working with opposition that has no game plan? Life is too short oh.

Nightshift: If giving a green light, Nigerian politicians will go for the most expensive model that costs over €100,000. Dude, that's taxpayers money! Is such luxury really necessary for public servants in our clime?

Billyonaire: Whats wrong with having Porsche as Official car ? Are we in recession in Nigeria ? Last time I checked, this is not Cyprus. We are an oil nation goddamnit. Its time we start living large in this wonderful country with near-zero tax regime and stop lamenting, some South African and Ghanians keep messing with us cos we are too humble. Let us show them we live beyond forking $2 per day. LOL!!!

Ebestsms.com:
Am shocked with the replies posted here.

I will NEVER allow any of my children to use left hand, you can compare left hand with right, right is always stronger than left according to those.

Mehn I will NEVER allow such, things normally fall from lefty dudes hands.

I dislike lefty with passion, in fact I don't employ a lefty in my office.

NO! NO!! NO!!!

Ogini na ahio......

honeric01: When you are capable of impregnating a woman.

salt 1: How can you mix Koran and Bible? Who told you the first couple of Lagos are happy? Are you an insider? I'm not saying that they're not happy, but in marriage, appearance may be widely different from reality.

Which religion will the children practice?

Griffint: This present James Bond no dey smile at all?

mens dept: It was the same Bill Clinton who did for us what we, the so-called giant of AFrica, a country of over 150 mill could not do for ourselves, that is, democracy.

Bill Clinton was one of the best governors in America (unlike GEJ is Bayelsa) and was a great president, even till date he's well received in his country, where people instead of just copy copy like Nigeria, get their hands dirty if need be to protect their rights.

Yet we in Nigeria expect to have constant light, good roads, and world class soccer stadiums and airports, yet we cant drag out [b]those pastors owning private jets [/b]nor generals like IBB and beat them the way we do petty criminals on the street. We dont want to have a serious revolution like all those countries that we run to for vacation or visa, yet expect our government to overnite be transparent.

GEJ can pardon yet can't progress his country like other men for their people.

adaobi123: what can a 8 year old girl offer to a grown man ? na wa oooooo

Chynx: Whats the difference? Resist a petty thief (in action) who knows he can overpower you and check out the outcome. You will be glad to reain alive after he is done with you.
If you have the balls to steal, then you should equally have the balls [b]to face the music. [/b]Period!

yomanovic: I ask myself the same question. Things like this continue to give Nigeria an ugly image on the international scene although I feel it should be a deterrent to others but its just so wierd.

Chynx: Go and do some looting and your question will be answered!

gboss4sure: Those people that started scopping the fuel are they not corrupt? Yet they will be saying GEJ is corrupt as if they are saints.
