In Saudi Arabia too the PM agreed to the discontinuation of the probe

remember Easyy, Foreigners are making huge amount of money in Nigeria (you know how), while Nigerians are reluctant to come back to take these huge opportunities

We are very proud of the muddy FDI, leave those inconsequential Diasporas to blab on about little little things like corruption

There are actually about 14,000 secondary schools, about 3,000 have been operating without being resgistered or monitored

Lush:
You guys should quit dissing the laudable efforts by companies to set up an e-payment system in Nigeria One would think developed countries like the US and the UK didnt go through the same learning curve (online fraud) when these services were being introduced. In fact, these scams still occur as we speak in these developed countries, is it because a lot of noise is being made by the US about Nigerian online scams? For chrissakes, its because "they've been there and done that" so they know what to look out for.

Its going to take trial and errors to get it right in the Nigerian context but pending that time, there are other alternatives which are undoubtedly expensive. The reason being its just being introduced into the Nigerian market and these companies are trying to recoup their investment. This is the exact same scenario with the gsm & cdma networks, look at their prices now! They're literarilly giving their sims out for free!

Dissing them is a good way of encouraging them actually 
Developed countries went through learning curves and whoever gets it right first laughs at the other "slow comer"
Since they have "been there and done that" then nigerian companies don't have to do much then, they should implemet it, when theres a vaccine for malaria you don't ignore it to start formulating you own medicine from scracth!
criticism is good!

my rambling cents 

Apparently Globalcom will foot the bill

nigeria1:
But  were the several others he worked with also involve in the fraud.

"logistic contracts"  you make me laugh, I do not give bride , so mr Makawa would never give a person like me contracts, because i would expose fraud. Did you think mr makawa had it in his mind to count Nigeria,  NO. it was just his interest in contract,  what a shame.

And I notice that Mr Makawa now have agent on this site,  doing his work, they reply in less than 2 minute putting  praise to fraud.

yes now im getting paid for every alphabet i write about mr makawa 

the several others that worked with mr makawa, are they from the same village

between im not I'm anyway saying the census were accurate,just having fun with the underlying reason why the census is soo controvertial 

Another reason why? is that I can see something that some of you can not see, as an engineer,  the maths involve,  I can see thing that president Obasanjo can not see,  you see if they allow Mr Makawa to get away with this crime,  In 2016 , the census would put the fulani/hausa as 50% of Nigeria,  and I read president Obasanjo saying no one can break Nigeria,  I beg to disagree with the president,  It is possible,  There is a limit you can cheat people and at a point,  when they react,  they would kill their fear,  And would destroy anything in their way,

bloody hell you can see a lot mate

"If they allow mr makawa. .  ." are you not part of "they" actually if you allow them to get away with this you should be held responsible for not speaking up since you have all the mathematical calculations as a top engineer

It would take less than 500 people to kill everybody in the north,  it is the new age military skill which nigeria military do not have. With money and skill, it is possible sir.

bloody hell!
the south has always had the money and skills but they're still being "cheated"  

I would first of say mr Makawa was not well qualified to conduct a census. I don't care was degree he as, Is appointment was not based on merit.

i didnt know mr makawa went around to count people, i thought he worked with several others

Borishade is well qualified to be an avaition minister, fani kayode is equally qualified

what the point of the census? to know who is "stronger" than who? or who will get more money,ego,owo kudi
money and power hmm

Lagos have 18 million, which is more reliable than MR makawa figure. I was born in lagos and i know lagos very well. And i know from maths that lagos is about 18 million

where were you when they started dashing out money for training and all those logistic contracts,why didnt you tell them not to bother as your team have a more reliable method of counting the people in nigeria?

It's disheartening enough that we kill animals to eat "because" we are higher up the food chain and whatever but killing animals in a grotesque manner just to depict real life is absolutely absurd!

I'm sure there are certain acceptable standards, there are some "ugly" things we do as human beings that are considered "acceptable" and killing an animal with ones teeth isnt one especially when its in a bloody film!

seun, yes slitting the neck with a sharp knife in an abbatoir is generally more acceptable than biting the neck off, except if you live in a barbaric society

Maybe, the portrayal of a chicken being killed with the bite of one's teeth could be considered barbaric, but is it not the same as killing it with a knife?

Erm killing a chicken with ones teeth is barbaric
Killing a real chicken in a Film with one's teeth is even more barbaric!

_{"Generally just excercise a lot of patience when you get here and after about 2 months everything will start to seem 'normal', cars driving in the opposite direction and all"
some things are really normal to others}

Yes O, i think we should have a thread like this with video

that goal was superb!! I bet the keeper forgot he is both footed, the shot was unexpected he probably looked up the first time he got the ball!

The Goal

Yes who has an idea of how to watch this particular show or any other show online apart from NTA news


Tmoni you can watch NTA online here but just the news

Tales by moonlight

Speak Out

too bad i can only remember the names, those are proper shows no imitation, no copying, no fake accent straight up original shows

Ndipe:
All of a sudden, some of our people became concerned with Animal rights. What next is on their agenda? Time for PETA to open an office in Nigeria, to curb these 'senseless' killing of animals in movies. Killing them should be performed n a more 'humane' (with a knife, I suppose) and not in a barbaric manner.

Thats says alot about our people don't you think?

Killing animals in films is actually unnecessary, its just common sense, just think of it for a bit would you

But those five chicken's he kills will be eaten, and if he didnt bite them off, they will be killed eventually won't they? and probably with a knife, which can be very messier and more grotesque than biting.

eaten by who? oh boy i fear you o
I definitely would not like to live in the same area as some people on here, killing people wont be a bad thing to them really

Twist it as much as you can but actually killing an animal in a film is unnecessary

if u actually examine it, biting the chicken heads off is probably more humane for the chicken than cutting it's neck with a knife.
bloody hell, hmm maybe we should start killing animals like barbarians instead killing it with a knife in an abattoir

if you also "examine it" urinating in your front garden is probably better than urinating in the loo, it make the land more fertile

Danmasani:
see that is what you do not know. Mr Makama is a christian from Mangu local government in Plateau state. there are no Hausa fulani there. Because he has a Hausa souding name doesnt mean he is one. I have an arabic name and not hausa. Dont go making conclusions.

You can claim he is not fulani/hausa , I do not care where he is from,   He can be from Jutachigababa for all I care,  That does not change my view and the fact that  the census figure are wrong,  and are falsified,  period.

Danmasani, stop bothering yourself, anyone that is not in our favour are considered hausa/fulani, Even obasanjo is now a hausa man,

the figure shows the amount of people residing in a particular area- the census didnt say how many northerners or southerners are in the north and the other way round, but hey whatever! we just shoot the messenger!
If a southerner was in charge of the census, he'll probably be called a northern puppet

if lagos was 9.34m and kano was 9.01 would it have been more acceptbale?
just wondering is nigeria the only country with a higher male population than female

I think they are usually into wholesales, they sell single quantities also, they probably have connection with manufacturers in asia or somewhere

Afro-salon probably get their supplies from the cheapest suppliers, i know someone who got a container of hair products from usa and some others get family members to get them from nigeria

Hair biznes is big bizness in the u.k esp ladies hair

why dont you write to companies directly or get family members to hook you up

You can also ask your business lecturers if they have any links with companies or check with your career center

what do you need a lappie & digital camera for when you have a phone

oh yea GAMINE HAS A DIGITAL CAMERA oh SHE'S GOT A LAPPIE TOO hmm now where's my loudspeaker

As long as he is white he'll do  thats what they want

They say nigerian players and admin will respect a "foreigner" more, why? i don't know
talk about being second class in your own house!

I think egauvon has only lost one game since he took over, if this guy lose four games in a row it'll be okay 

Ghana vs Nigeria feb 6th Griffin Park!

you mean Makawa counted the whole nigeria himself haaa these northerns should stop counting us lie lie, we can count ourselves

Hmm when did ebuoe become a mofo? he is a bit childish but i don't think he's done anything that bad jut taking advantage of the protection ref give younger players- a bit too far i must say; always looking for fouls especially in the wrong place

I think this game will be about the midfield, and again we are coming out tops in midfield we just need to get away from the 3/4 of our side of the pitch. Flamini should do well in the absence of Gilberto

In front i think Adebayor should play a bit in front of Henry

don't be afraid to shoot Rosicky! You shoot you score and if you didn't oh well try again!- that should be the message we don't need too much possession

gianni:
hey guys!read this thread through and through and i'm glad i left the entertainment forum just in time
i don't know jack! about shares but i want to invest in them.
tired of my frivolous spending.right now i have like 20k [paltry,aint it?]
but i hope it will fetch me some more in few months.
just want to know the basics,terms,risks involved,stuff generally
@freelance ,hope you got my mail!

hmm few months? in the nigerian stock exchange nahh your certificate will probably just be arriving after 3months, you need like a year to get something tangible

I respect every bodies view, but i do not see the sense in cahing something for the benefit of a minority. it does not make sense artistically, financially and what every "lly" you want to think of. while it is all humane or nice, or wahtever you want to call it.
I think the people who created the VCR and DVD player also respected people's views, that is why they included the fast forward button. And i'm getting really tired of saying it, but if it bothers anybody, fast froward through the scene or don't watch the movie.

i really don't understand what you mean?  are you saying it does not make sense artistically/financially when you don't kill animals for real in a film? that'll probably mean it doesn't make sense using fake bullets in films then; it makes it more hmm artistic

It's disheartening enough that we kill animals to eat "because" we are higher up the food chain and whatever but killing animals in a grotesque manner just to depict real life is absolutely absurd!

If Nollywood was like any other 'wood where they re-shoot scenes several times because the actor didnt get it right, will the actor bite of 5 chicken heads with blood pouring all of his mouth just because they want to make it erm artistic enough for the viewers?


How do you know if a movie has a phoney ritual scene or not?

He he I'm loving this cow thread!

can you imagine my people are so educated,they have all the degrees in the world,all the oil producing states, all the acclaimed lawyers, scientists, economist, business gurus yet they let "cows" rule them  are you guys sure we sef are not cows in human flesh 

Just imagine many people from my village mostly educated say they prefer this one cow from a state called Niger to a fellow villager 

One of our very educated brothers that knows everything about tourism, joined a party full of "cows" then guess what he got told the next in line is a "cow" i mean what the heck was he expecting?
These cows should stop interfering with our imoke power plant can't they just go and build a bio-mass with all the cows in their part?

stop calling your fellow cow a cow!

wow I thought they phases out capital punishment in Nigeria

Well Done

I think Ljunberg is going very soon

hmm I wonder why Arsene Wenger didnt put Mukina in the last game against Liverpool. she'd have had a hat trick probably dedicate one of the goals to toshmann

Mr Akola
send our greetings to Piect and all the other gunners

I'm not really surprised Lagos and Kano have similar figures

It's very obvious in the case of Lagos because it is small and very congested especially on the main island But not too obvious in Kano because its quiet big and they have many villages especially on the way to/from Zaria and other states around it.

Radiant and money issues hmmm 

I dont mind having one, im sure the person i'll marry will be someone i trust whole heartedly

there's no way you can charge your phone every week or every two weeks. maybe if you dont use the phone at all though

I charge my phone everyday

certainly not the same proffession that got him where he is 
people born without hands shouldnt be encouraged to beg should they?

I think south africa already has 3G
the only people that might benefit apart from the telecomms companies are people selling 3G phones and maybe those advertisement companies ready to target users of 3G phones
