AutosRe: Price Reduced Used Mercedes Vboot For Sale For Just N180,000 by MacLovington(m): 12:24am On Dec 24, 2012
What type of v-boot is it, 200, 230, 300 etc?
Which year was it built?
Car location?
Is it registered and still being driven about?
Is the engine original or replaced?
How many kilometres has it been driven, 175,000, 155,000 etc?
What's wrong with A/C, is it just gas that needs filling?
Have you got original car documents including custom papers?
Oh is black or dark blue?

A car has many vital infos that a transparent seller should provide ab initio to avoid wasting both seller's and prospective buyers' time.

RomanceRe: Money Or Attention: Which Do Ladies Prefer? by MacLovington(m): 10:34am On Dec 22, 2012
La Professeur: les ferme aime l'argent plus que tout les choses!
,

Prof, should it not be:

Les femmes aiment l'argent...............

As Ferme = farm
and aime used with femmes (plural) becomes aiment:

Like "Je sais" = I know

Ils/elles savent = they know

From savoir = to know

You try sha...no be your mother tongue. Na manage me too I dey o.

Now about the topic:
Money 75%, attention 25%.
Too much attention, no respect, too little money no respect either.
HealthRe: HIV Prevalence In Nigeria By States! by MacLovington(m):
The stats might be skewed in some cases by many factors though they may be roughly accurate.

(1) Access to health care: do Southerners and Northerners use medical facility to the same extent? Is an average 27-year old Kebbi man going to do HIV-test like a person in Abia? Does a Kebbi woman have same freedom to go and secretly do an HIV test like a Benue or Rivers woman can?

(2) Do pregnant women in Kebbi register with a maternanity home/hospital as much as an Akwa woman (so that they get routine HIV test)?

(3) Are HIV-testing facilities equally available nationwide?

(4) Do the same demographic groups do HIV tests nationwide? We know HIV is more prevalent in uder 45s, even more prevalent in under 30s, so do same people do tests nationwide?

Nigeria is a dynamic place, people move about a lot, students, lorry drivers, businessmen etc, so HIV can spread anywhere. Nobody is a winner because your state currently has low HIV rate.

I think more HIV cases are undetected in Naija than are known. That's the real problem. GET TESTED.

RomanceRe: Why Are Men No Longer Pursuing Women? by MacLovington(m): 9:21pm On Dec 21, 2012
@OP

Men still pursue women BUT they are mostly habitual pursuers with sugar-coated tongue. So they have many girls at the same time.
True men pursue women less now. A lot of men now have the belief that girls are mostly after money. Pursue money and girls will pursue you. Women have has comodified love.

Overall men have a lower opinion of women nowadays. This is sad as there are still decent ladies out there but you'll need a microscope & (The Grace of GOD) to find them.
So emancipation has not really cut it, has it?

Ladies there you have it. You can attack the messenger if you like.

RomanceRe: Nigerian Men Regret Marrying Nigerian Women In The USA by MacLovington(m): 12:20pm On Dec 19, 2012
this is the only part that made sense to me in that article as any/combinations of those facts could be reasons why nigerian marriages are failing in the us.

and talking about regrets,
y'all think nigerian women have no regrets marrying them nigerian men?
oh please, spare me that men crap.


I think it's time Naija women tried their luck with non-Naija men.
Here in Europe a lot more Naija men marry non-Nigerian women than Naija women marry people of other races. It's naija women who seem to be more interested in Naija men.
Many Naija ladies here are complaing that there are no men to marry. They should be more open like white women who marry non-whites.

Let's try other people and compare.

When they tell all these mgbeke to finish school, they won't listen. At least she would not be such a massive air-head.

So your Frenchman respected you so much that he divorced you.......muhehehehehehehe

By the time her current mafioso suck the small oyel wey remain and kick her out, she will start looking for a good ol' Naija man with her wahala.

By the way I know of Naomi Campbell, claudia Schiffer etc, but I have never heard of this Mgbekelicious self-hater.

PoliticsRe: How Okonjo-Iweala's Mother Escaped From Kidnappers - Police by MacLovington(m):
[quote author=Ileke-IdI]Which one is "Queen" mother?

seems like these ppl are more concerned with giving us her family history.

PS: Was she rescued because she's connected to power, or because she was in danger?[/quote].

My Dear you no surprise?

Is she a Queen or a Queen Mother?
A Queen if her husband is the current king provided that he has made her his Queen. This is not automatic and depends on culture.

A Queen mother (often called Dowager queen as a widow) if her husband is no more and her son/daughter is the reigning monarch AND if such title exists in that kingdom.

A Queen mother is not just a Queen that has children no matter how famous the children are. tongue

I am a royalist and a stickler for proper labelling.
Royalty and family are about the only institutions Africans developed independently that colonialism has not fully swept away.

Thank God the Prof is back. How much did it cost Nigerian public purse to achieve this?

RomanceRe: How Would You Define A 'cheap Girl'? by MacLovington(m): 5:41pm On Dec 11, 2012
AmBeautiful: A cheap girl.....

is one who thinks and believes she's cheap.
.

I don't get your point.

Girls who cheapen themselves usually see themselves as sharp girls, the happening girls. That's the irony. Introspection is not their forte.
RomanceRe: How Would You Define A 'cheap Girl'? by MacLovington(m): 5:30pm On Dec 11, 2012
Any girl who comodifies her body/love is cheap.

Wrong to believe because a girl charges 20k a time at Sheraton then she's not cheap. Price tag is relative and immaterial.
So Naija is full of many cheap babes as most have a pricetag.

So with lecturers, teachers, police, immigration etc. most seem to have a pricetag.

FTC

Such will never happen in our old dear con3.
If he can bribe the soldiers, he would. In fact he would have so greased their palms that such would not happen.

Reason why I still respect Aunty Ngozi despite her Breton Wood ill-advised fuel subsidy removal.

Our people even if fire is tormenting their bottom, they will still sit in the position. No plan, nothing to offer.
Christianity EtcRe: PICTURES: VODUN RELIGON - Benin & Togo {west Africa} by MacLovington(m):
[quote author=Red-Light]can u shut up for 2minutes?....Jesus is lord because the white told u so abi?..if its the same white man that told Ogun is Lord u go still follow accept like donkey ... why cant u tell whiteman that Ogun is lord like the indians and chinese and let them accept it? black man ...zombie for life[/quote].

Funny thing is that the Indians, Japanese & Chinese are far smarter than we Africans. We only think of book smartness.

They are way too socially and culturally smart hence their societies are more cohesive (despite great poverty in parts of India and China).
Today Lord Shiva & Lord Krishna are respectable even to westerners.

The Arabs instead of accepting Jewish-based religion came up with their own. Simply ingenious. Arabs today have no cultural/religious identity crisis.

But we blacks continue with inferiority complex and self-loathing (not even realising it).

The great indigenious West African empires(Benin,Oyo, Dahomey, Ashanti, Hausa Kingdoms) flourished pre-colonially and all were mostly earth-worship based (paganism is a whiteman's derogatory word).

Anyway, in Benin Republic/Togo/Haiti, they are not kidnapping their ministers' parents, not bombing themselves to pieces, not sodomising young boys under guise of religion and they have a better security profile. It seems this voodoo of a thing is serving them well.

slimyem: Who is Fred Agbaje...and what is he smoking?
Where are his fallacious statistics from??
What's the definition of "wife material"?
Rubbish!!!!!
.

His figures may be exaggerated, but we get his point.

In the 60s, women in the West began to challenge what they thought was oppression of women. Feminists got many of the things they wanted. Today, 40% of kids in many countries are born out of wedlock and single parents. Now they(children from those homes) top all the negative statistics: prison inmates/crime, school dropouts etc. Some easily quote Obama as a postive example But his stepdad & maternal grandpa were in his life.
You may say my yarn has no connection with the issue at hand, but women's/men's failurs to play their traditional roles have wrecked many marriages, damaging kids' development.

To want to challenge everything that define male role/female in the name of "open-eye" dressed as civilisation is not always wise.

So Agberos now have a full harem. It wasn't that bad when I left home. Men are really scarce now then. No wonder I see so many single ladies when I visit. Anyway a lot of our rich politicians are Agberos.

The man may have generalised a bit too much BUT is it not true that Naija women flock after rich/made men? If not how do you explain Ojukwu, Obasanjo, Abiola etc having baby mamas everywhere? Would any of the aforementioned men qualify as handsome?

HealthRe: Pregnant Woman Dies In Port-harcourt Hospital Because Of Deposit by MacLovington(m):
salafiyy: WICKED COUNTRY WITH WICKED PEOPLE,ESPECIALLY THE PEOPLE FROM THE SOUTH-EAST AND SOUTH-SOUTH...MAY GOD FORGIVE US ALL
.

So you mean all those Boko Haram guys from the North are very kind-hearted people?

Instead of people to focus on the general moral decay and increasing loss of those things (empathy, civility, being brother's keeper, human feelings etc) that make us humans in Nigeria, somebody is popping up here with bigotry. Who told you that the staff on duty that day did not come from Western or Northern Nigeria?

Sad.

People should know that this is a common thing in Nigeria. Even Buhari's daughter died just days ago. Maternal mortality rate is high.
What she had was most likely pre-eclampsia: she complained of headache, abdominal pain................and possibly visual problems, high BP (causing headache), Proteinuria, clonus. And usually in first pregnancy and can be recurrent.
The state has failed it's citizens and there's little private hospitals (essentially business) can do.

We need a state/federal health service. Private sector should be strictly regulated and not all-comers including quacks as it is now.

That's because Somalia has been wild wild west (no government, no authorities to record any data) for nearly 20 years. Anyway it is probably better not to have a government than the micky mouse ones Nigeria has been saddled with over many decades.
