It's a Nigerian dating app jare

Thanks jare, you just douse my fear. Because I am beginning to wonder if over 20million Nigerian youth should have to app on their phone with the intent of defrauding... That means my money is no longer safe in the bank.
Well I am glad to know its a dating site

They just made the application more popular

Ajibel:
Truth is, this issue was being discussed but hadn't been amplified to this level because the Primary elections wasn't closer.

I have an Uncle who is a party member and from him I learnt that Ambode's case had been decided long before now. They were only waiting for the go-ahead order and the primary election.

What exactly is his crime or offence. Is it that he is not performing or that he didn't hand over the treasury of Lagos to a few privileged people.

Would honestly like to know what he did wrong.

WritePal:
Thank you so much. This is the voice of a neutral. The view of the average apolitical resident of Lagos. Other opinions on this issue are simply heavily laced with bias politics and economic interest.

You said my mind.

Honestly, I just want to see all the projects this man started completed. They are great projects which many praised him for including myself and to my ought most surprise. Now to think that these projects might not be completed due to possible change in government is giving me a cause to worry.

I have endured the pain of all these constructions and therefore the benefits should equally be enjoyed instead of stalled or aborted just because some few people feel aggrieved.

I can only appeal to sensible lagosians and those that will vote at the APC primary tomorrow to vote with conscience.

Ajibel:
With the way Fashola left Lagos, Ambode ought to have done in four years what Fashola couldn't achieve in eight years. Instead he has reversed that gains of development in Lagos.

Ambode per Lagos standard has failed as a governor.

The thread is still here for you to read sir

https://www.nairaland.com/4755448/muiz-banire-why-ambode-doesnt

We weren't saying this 2months ago, but all of a sudden we have turned blind eyes to all the futuristic projects currently on going.

As a Lover of Lagos, I can easily mention a few...

*Is it the heavy investment in our water ways?, trying to bring alive water mode of transportation.

*or the reinvention of our road system of transportation

*or our Rice farm as a state?

* the introduction of LRU

* the beautification of the state

* building out tourism nature

* building roads and bridges

* I can keep going on and on

* there is no where in Lagos you would say you aren't feeling the presence of the government.

Now all of a sudden he is not good enough.

If he is not the most performing, he would be the second most performing governor in Nigerian so what changed?

Just because of Visionscape and pothole he is now the devil haba let us try and have conscience.
Let him spend 8years and if he didn't achieve what is expected of him then we can hang his political career. Give him the needed time to perform.

And I keep reading over and over what they claiming to be Ambode's crime, still I can't find it.

* visionscape
* bad roads.(not forgetting that he has touched more inner roads than any governor.)

Are these enough reasons to vote out a well acclaimed performing governor?

Oh please they should just shut up.

With the current works and plan of Ambode, I feel a second term will solidify his performance thus far. Rather than electing another governor who will come stop and start everything all over again. Then be a case of 1step forward 2 steps backward.

I am one of those who didn't believe in Ambode when he was elected has Governor, I criticised him but was surprised to what he was able to do in relatively short time. Yet some people are saying he hasn't done as much as fashola forgetting fashola spent 8years and he has only spent 3½years .

If Ambode should lose the APC primaries, and he decided to decamp to PDP, I will set aside my preference for APC as a party even though I am apolitical and start supporting PDP Lagos just so he wins the governorship election.

Obviously , he wasn't the one that wrote that crap, with so many grammatical errors.

AIT will never change... Its time for them to interview the PDP agent, they had to change the interviewer just to make it look pleasing to their sympathetic story.

The guy that interviewed the others was more antagonistic. however, all of a sudden they went soft and sympathetic on the PDP agent. What a shame... AIT will never change.

What kind of journalist is this for God sake. This is highly unprofessional ... If given the opportunity he would have slapped the inec Observer

DELTACHAINSMOKER:
Seriously what are you saying? Are you mad or stupid? Did I know she was married and what has marital status got to do with this.

I am sure you are dumb if not you won't be so stupid to respond with such questions.

However, she already informed you that she almost gave her phone to her husband when your silly mention came in about looking for sugar mummy and suggesting same to her. Imagine what would be her husband's reaction if he had seen that.

Grow up Old fool.

DELTACHAINSMOKER:
Because of this small thing? lol

But sorry tho. . . Just joking. My bad really. . . No vex.

We good abi?

Dude, leave another man's wife alone. And stop frolicking its disgusting

aragon4realz:
I met this girl 4years back and one thing led to another and we started a relationship, things have been pretty well and we love each other very much, we have our ups and down but we makeup for it. I love her so much I could do anything for her and she loves me too in her own special kind of way.

The problem now is that am planning on proposing to her in a couple of weeks, I even stylishly measured her ring size and I have been visiting some jewelry stores to pick the perfect ring for her and also planning some surprise engagement party/get together for her but the thing is that she hates my church (catholic).

She is Anglican by birth but she attends one of the pentecostal churches which I don't want to mention,
we have been talking about this church of a thing for the past 3 months now and she has sworn never to get married in the Catholic Church and I can't leave my church because of this.

I even stopped talking or texting her for some couple of days now but today she texted me saying that "I should do this one thing for her by leaving my church" and even said it to my face that I should not propose to her when the time comes cos she will say no because of this.

Am just confused, what shall I do? I need help

OK, if I am to be in your shoes, I will tell her that for us to prove our love to each other, we will both have to sacrifice. that is we would both have to leave our churches. Tell her to go look for another place of worship and you would be willing to follow her there but if she insist on her current church then she is not ready to sacrifice which means she is self-centered and doesn't really love you.

My 2cents

oyonu:
So you bitch do not know that we have enough schools on Nigeria? Which is better is it to build new university and underfund them or to fund the existing one to meet international standard? Don't we have enough schools to build manpower? How I forgot you so blind you couldn't see at all. And yes government also build industries and as well provide enabling environment for industries to thrive. Ajaokuta Steel company, Okomu Oil palm etc are they not government companies even though they are maribound due to corruption? No you don't know cause u are blind. Incase you failed economics in your olevel, Nigeria is not yet a capitalist economy but a mixed where both individual and government control resources including industries. Madam I say it again, we need industries and businesses not transport university. We need jobs not advance secondary schools with empty laboratories and libraries.

Also u asked who sites a school on a populated area? where else can they site a school? Inside Sambisa or inside d jungle? Schools should be sited where the society can easily access it to have their problems solve as a school is a place of knowledge...why am I telling you this when you can never understand it?

Lol you did a very good job at stating rubbish.

1. If the capacity of universities we have is enough then everybody that writes jamb each year would gain admission. Until then, its not enough.... You must have enough before you talk of quality.

2. Okomu palm oil company is a private investment and not government. While Ajaokuta steel mill was established as a government business yet see the mess made out of it. After realising that government has no business in business the Nigerian government opt for PPP (I am hoping you know what that means), though currently there are a lot of controversies surrounding it.

3. If I give you job and you don't have the set skills to handle it how will you survive on the job. After crashing out of the job then I go employ the white to do them for me because my own people don't have the expertise to handle it. In essence don't put the cart before the horse.

4. University are sited in remote places because of access to land and also help the community to grow. Go check out 70% of universities in Nigeria where they are located.

You talk as though you have knowledge but its obvious to me that its either your knowledge is obsolete or you need schooling. Get sense.

oyonu:
Look here Mr man I aired my opinion not for you but for myself if you don't like it, please look away or locate a bottle of snaiper and drink to end your miseries. What does Nigeria need if not industries and businesses to employ the millions of graduates being churn out every year or of what use is building a university when there is no job? Biko pachala anya gi this morning make thunder no strike you

You are just a vile being, the hatred in you would not let you see beyond your very nose.

Is it government business to set up industries and businesses? Or to create enabling environment for sure to strive? For businesses and industries to strife you mist first develop the capital skills needed for it. And the transportation Industry is key to the development of any economy.
I don't expect you to know this since you're shortsighted.

If you want businesses and industries, you and I need to go back to our villages and start planting or rearing hopefully it would all take shape from there.

What you give is what you get. Get sense!

oyonu:
Good development with a lot of "buts". We need more industries and business, enough with the glorified secondary schools if they won't be properly funded. Also d school should have sited in a populated place with good mode of transportation.

Must you guys always criticize...

Kai, today you want infrastructure, if they give you infrastructure you will complain that its agricultural you want. They give you agriculture you will complain its industry you want. If they give you industry you will complain that there is no skilled labour to run the industry so whats the point of building it. Now they have provided means of equipping you so you can build, manage and maintain yet you complain it's those others you want.

And for goodness sake, who locates a university in a populated area?

I am really holding back not to insult you.
Anyways I am done here.

haqueurate:
wow wow wow

Like siren right?

Anyways beautiful song and great video... Enjoyed it

Try using *WhatsApp* yes WhatsApp. Send the image to your self, then download it. You will be surprised how compressed the images will be and the quality remaining thesame.

LaudableXX:
According to which biology? Have you ever heard of the 'law of independent assortment' in genetics? People can get pregnant 2 or 3 times in a row, and all the pregnancies can be SS foetuses. It is like rolling a dice. No one can predict exactly how the dice will roll. They say there is a 25% chance of having an SS offspring, but nobody can predict how often that 25% chance will come into play. Probability is frigging different from certainty. I have seen families with children. 2 successive pregnancies produced 2 SS children! How does one explain it?

This is quite insightful, added to the knowledge I already had.
Still, I will stick to the theory of checking for an SS foetus before birthing the child. Its just another option away from the regular break up song people sing for AS partner.

mfm04622:
Tell me the theory they are supposed to follow!

Your theory says each birth has a 25% chance of being SS? So what you don't know is you can have 5 children and ALL will be SS! Each incident is independent. It means what happened in each birth do not accept what happens in future birth

Theory states that you check the genotype of every pregnancy with 10 to 12 weeks of conception, and of it comes out SS, the you terminate the fetus because the fetus is unhealthy.

I am not against abortion.

And for those that will say i am killing a child, i am sure you know the sperm you waste every now an then carries a living organism same as the egg waiting to be hatched. So fetus is not far from these.

Again only he who wears the shoe knows where it itches.

mfm04622:
Please leave theory. I know many families regretting this same decision you want her to go ahead with

Yes they are suffering it because they didn't follow this theory.

ROSYL:
Bullshit! Please let’s hear about the little biology you did in school which says if you have SS, the next is most likely not going to be SS

Again, how could you forget the financial and psychological trauma that come with having SS kids or aborting them as you suggested?

Well, I have earlier stated so long they both have the will to follow through.

I am not for or against abortion. I have learnt long ago to never say never because only he who wears the shoes knows where it itches.
I equally said so long they are financial capable to pull through my suggestion. Also that on no account should they birth any child with SS. These are all in my previous post.

All I am doing is providing an alternate solution and not just a one way solution. Everything is possible.

ROSYL:
So what if they come in successions? Flush one fetus and birth the next one? Wow!

People abort for health related issues. SS is health related. And again, according to the little biology I did back then in school, if SS should come the next is most likely not going to be SS. No way you would have 3 successions of SS.

delishpot:
To get pregnant and abort when they spot SS in fetus? You call that a good option? Have you ever been present during scan? Do you know that at a few weeks old tje jeart has started beating and baby is already a formed being? Na so she go dey get bele dey abort up and down ba? Whay if she has a few SS babies before rhe AS one comes along? She will abort them like its nothing ba?

People abort for health complications so is this one. SS is a health issue and complication.

If my memory serves me right, biology states that SS genotype doesn't come in successions. That is If the first is SS the next can't be SS.

Don't know if I am 100% correct with this but science has made life a whole lot easier.

CSTR1005:
It is an unnecessary waste of resources.

She should break up with him and be done with it.
Couples break up for far less.

She is just wasting the time she could have used to get someone else.

What if money is not the the problem.
She should break up and lose the opportunity of being happy.

Not so many people get the opportunity of being with the person they really want to be with or end up happy.

Science has made life much easier.

ROSYL:
Consider which option? The option that involves flushing your fetus, if the genotype is SS? How many are you willing to abort to get your ‘desired’ genotype?

Op I don’t think that love will be strong enough to weather the storm that comes with this. Love is not selfish! Let him go, God will provide a compatible man for you.

Well according to biology and science SS don't come in successions. That's is if you get SS now the next baby won't be an SS. So yes flush one fetus and birth the next one.

Netanyahu1:
Go for PGD , AMNIOCENTESIS OR or other pre birth diagnosis but like someone said , very expensive.

Another sound advice. @EmpresFIDEL

Ignore those naysayers when there is a will, there is always a way.

However, I will re-echo it, don't birth a child with SS its a would be a life of pain for all involved.

charliboy654:

Have heard of checking the genotype of a fetus before its born, if it's ss, you about it, otherwise u leave the baby, cost between 350 to 400k, and this procedure could be done more than once b4 getting the desired genotype.

If I were to be in your shoes I will consider this as an option.
I will equally show this advise to him so both of you be on same page.
While you both continue to do research on how to improve your chances.

But on no condition should your and your bf/husband bring a child into this world to suffer.

God's wisdom. EmpresFIDEL

How many trees has he planted as a student whose work is depend on tress?

I may sound bizarre to a lot of people for comment I'm about to make but I don't care.

Tree felling & tree carving are an abomination. If you fell a tree, plant one to replace it. Trees are the connection (trunk & root) between the living and the dead and local witches know this. What does the life of a tree teach us? If you sacrifice a seed and lose it to the ground, the seed dies and comes back to life as a tree.

It may come as a surprise to know that Zuma Rock was one an ancient giant tree cut down by the nephthalims. (Before you argue, please do an extensive research on this). Why did the ancient giants cut down these trees that sour high into the heavens? If you don't believe these stories and think it's not real, then explain where the story of Jack and the beanstalk came to be. It's the same story of giants and trees that are depicted in avatar. Anyways, that's another story for another day.

Do your research. Leave trees alone. You are destroying a vital part of ecosystem. When you cut down or destroy trees, you are destroying free oxygen, high temperature regulators and a chain of ecosystem.


Prof800
erad

how many trees have you planted for the note books you used in your primary, secondary or guessing university days?
How many trees have you planted for the chairs and furniture you currently use in your house.
How many trees have you planted for the roofing of the house you live in.

What a wrapped mentality. You should have just said people should seize to exit since you don't what some things to go into extinct.

That's how some idiot will come and say we shouldn't kill some animals then find one useless logic to back it up.

If you know your biology very well, then you did know that the eco system is a revolving door. It goes round.
Nonsense!!

My question to the guy is, was she the only person in the rain? Was there no guys in the rain? How many guys have you offered lift to? Mr do good.

I am so happy for this goal, Germany's gra gra is too much

Sweden deserves a penalty... Odoro

Nigeria didn't even do that much before they blew their useless whistle

Its as if they swore for this guys with back pass. They can't even do counter attach, wasting balls. This guys are a bunch of disgrace. I give up. Jesus!!! Hha
