SMH. Na even charcoal dem dey take write holding cell plate.

Ersan:
An operation in the NORTH being coined in hausa and some imbe.ciles are out here crying foul. SMH, you lot are pathetic.


It translates to "scorpion sting", a fierce name but even more fierce in hausa.

Well, I don't know how you see it, but there shouldn't be selective enforcement of operations in different regions of the country.

One rule must apply to all. They either stick to English-only code naming of operations or use local operation names for all.

This is a serious issue that bothers on ethical decision making. You don't treat it with levity.

I understand why English was used in the ND, but Operation Python Dance in Igbo land?

A dinga fada gaskiya mana, mallam!

I also have a similar problem. mine is getting to one year now. I have tried many bitter herbal drugs. I am now even scared for my liver and kidney. I just keep taking those medicines hoping it will go. I know people who have had and they said theirs is no more. The description of theirs is even different and more scary than mine.They say I should take the herbal medicines like they did and I will be well. but I feel mine is getting bad by the day. Am scared. I have changed my diet. No sugar, no pepper, no ground nut oil and I drink lot of water. Though there was a time I saw little improvement. When I go to toilet and it comes out, after 5-8 minutes or so it goes back. I thought it was about to go, but it never did. now if I go to toilet it stays out for like almost a day. it just goes back inside when I awake from sleep.
I have thought of operation. Am just a young boy. My mom says operation doesn't treat the root cause. Some say its too delicate. A little mistake and am forever damaged while others have told me that if I do it I will be in pains for like a month. How can I be in pains for a month? Am a student, won't I go to school? So am also confused. For now I keep taking my herbal medicines out of faith and I believe with my prayers a miracle will happen or by the end of the year when I will have graduated and be waiting for NYSC, I will just take the bull by the horn and go for surgery.

I'm sorry about this.

Have you tried using turmeric? It works well, I heard.

I am happy for Tubaba, really.

But isn't Glo supposed to be channeling their funds towards upgrading their facilities to make for better services?

Or how will all these ambassadors help grow their coverage?

Years have passed, yet their poor network services remain poor.

It hasn't changed for the better nor has it got worse.

They are a real example of "we just dey!"

Glo makes it really hard to buy naija.

Useless network!

KevinDein:
Fair point.

Considering the human and natural resources that abound in states such as Plateau, Benue and kogi, they should be fairing much better than they are doing right now.

Although I won't exactly class them as the most useless states in the country. Just cursed with clueless leaders.

True talk.

Our issue has always been of poor leadership.

The people we elect into the positions always seem to be bereft of ideas on how to move the states forward.

They'll just wrigmarole as if passing by, without contributing shiiit to grow even their immediate communities.

What Gombe is achieving today quite puts the MB leaders in the shade.

Such a shame.

laudate:
I have said it before, that whole region needs divine intervention. It is too early to start causing lamentations on this board. My guy, stop dis, nah. But first remove Nassarawa from that list o! Don't you think they are still better off than Kogi?

You're right, sha.

Kogi's case is spiritual.

Such great potentials, yet the state lags behind in so many areas. They've been plagued with bad leaders one after the other as if cursed.

I pray that they cross this hurdle to become great someday.

Nairaland moderators sha. You people are not serious. Two threads were created on this same topic yesterday, yet they lost the FP spot to the one created today.

Such ineptitude.

That's right.

In terms of leadership, the top 5 states with the most useless governors ought to come from my zone, the Middle Belt.

Government in states such as Niger, Nasarawa, Kwara, Kogi, and Benue leave so much to be desired.

I always thought underdevelopment is the other name for my state, Plateau, but whenever I go to these states, I weep.

My region is fu#ked up. Big time!

Smart, intelligent, good-natured, and hardworking people being led by goats. Our leaders don't know the first thing about development.

ademasta:
You are absolutely correct... He is my uncle

Wow.

Such a small world.

You have a great uncle, I must admit.

I admire the man in a lot of ways.

ademasta:
Wow! Do you know Dr Popoola in your department?

Lol. Who wouldn't.

Popoola was more like a father figure to all of us.

He taught us accounting.

I know him very well. He's such a good, upright, and God-fearing man.

...and all the rich they served have gone broke.

Just like the devil, the PDP does not give anything for free.

ademasta:
Wow! That's great. I graduated from ABU(Engineering) 4years ago, never knew things have changed hands.

Okay, that was a long time.

I graduated from ABU the same time as you did.

Economics.

When Lebanese turn white?

ademasta:
What is the new system oga

The new grading system takes into cognizance both your JAMB score and O'Level results.

A jamb score like that with a couple of As and Bs would do fine, but with Cs, Ds, and Es, or combined results, his chances of being admitted will be slim.

Read up on the new grading system. It's been in force since last year.

chiron:
I just called the number whoever answered is very rude... Very very very rude, am resisting the urge to something very offensive.

Why would you call him?

Did you actually believe that crap?

m6tem:
With the above result can I get admission to study Computer Science in ABU?

In the old system, sure. With this new one, your chances of gaining admission in ABU depends on your O'Level results.

sdindan:
I wish it is true.

Can't wait for celebrate.
if u quote me amadioha will strike u

You go wait tire.

This must be one of the people Femi Adesina refers to as "purveyors of hate!"



Nothing go happen to Baba Buhari.

Long live the president!

timota:
The link is there

Yeah. The link isn't enough.

Copy the story and past here.

You don't expect every nairalander to follow through that link when they can read it all here.

Nice one.

Up SAMBAY!

You see ba, those Arewa people erroneously think our silence symbolises weakness.

Unlike them, we don't make rash decisions. Instead, we observe, analyse, and react accordingly.

My people in the middle belt and south have had it up to the mouth with them.

There's nothing like 19 northern states. It's Arewa north and the rest of us.

Our Muslim brothers will attest to this. When it comes to leading the mosque, the Arewa north regard the middle belt Muslim as north Muslim enough to lead them in prayers.

There's no such thing as brotherliness amongst them. Their supremacist worldview won't let them see others as equals. And it's not as if they are better than our Muslim brothers in any aspect of life o.

Ours are cleaner, more educated, tolerant... In fact, better by any yardstick employed. Yet, they are expected to play second fiddle to some dirty, ignorant, and animalistic mofo. Just because?

A muslim uncle of mine was married to a fulani woman. The lady would go on to misbehave for years, treating him with disdain. I mean, we are talking about a rich, gentle and handsome man being treated like some piece of shiiit by some lady whose father could barely afford her fees. The man put her through school and secured her a goodpaying job, besides opening a thriving business for her. (Not that the financial aspect means anything to me; I'm just laying it bare for expository purposes).

One day, he got fed up and asked to sit down for some talks. The woman flared up, talking down how she had been tolerating him the whole time because he is "religiously inferior" to her. TF!

Typical Fulani woman; she had an inflated sense of her own self importance and is always in the pursuit of gratification from vanity or egotistic admiration of some religious supremacy. She asked for a divorce instead, and he obliged. Good riddance!

The other fulani women I know exhibit similar traits.

Knowing them from the out and knowing them in toto are two different things. Angels from afar, beasts up close. We aren't quite alike, bar the physical and lingual similarities.

Middle belters, do not let anyone deceive you; those people hate you and want your lands!

By their yardstick, you'll never measure up!

Where's the story?

Withdrawn........bros...... thanks

You're welcome, bro.

Thanks for doing that.

MTN data services is unrivaled, GLO 4g is MTN's GPRS

Hahahhaha

This had me laughing out loud.

True though.

Horlufemi:
Glo 4G is scary I tell you. I downloaded 3.5 GB in 15mins. I nearly went mad. I thought the file was corrupted, but it was 100% complete.

3.5GB in 15 minutes is pretty slow if you asked me, especially if on 4G.

Glo isn't ready. Twice, I subscribed to their data plans, twice I abandoned the sub almost as soon as I turned on my mobile data. Because the network is wack!

jerseyboy:
No be Sabisa again. Now na Falgore Forest. Meanwhile Bokoharam no de finish for ground.

Boko Haram is an ideology. You can't kill that, sadly.

ZKOSOSO:
In Kaduna sharia war of Feb 2000, Buhari's voice we remember.
Ambrose Alli died an innocent poor man still living in his Father's Mud house even as then Govnor of Oil Rich Bendel state...Nothing was found in his account yet Buhari Killed him cos he was Christian he so hated... yet the then Kano state Govnor caught with Millions stolen cash in govt house was not touched cos he was Muslim and Fulani

Bros... I can tell a thousand evil perpetrated by Jihadist Buhari in all his poorest leadership exploits in all his life time..

He just deserve to go.....

Nobody deserves to die, no matter how much you dislike them.

Why pray to take that which you cannot create?

May the good Lord spare his life and those of countless others going through pain at this time!

Good one.

In my place, politicians' children bag double honors only in weed smoking and bad behaviour.

fulanimafia:
I've observed you've become increasingly corrosive and less objective when it comes to your statements towards the North in recent times. What gives?

Errr... Let's say the vituperative attacks on the person of Sanusi in the aftermath of his submissions about the ills of the North did.

I am not the most objective person on this platform, but my comments are meant to point out the ills bedevilling that side of the divide. They may seem like scathing remarks, but they aren't.

I have been hurt deeply by some Hausa/Fulani, who have killed my friends and relatives unprovoked at different times for no just cause. But even that isn't enough to raise that emotion of hate for the northerners in me. Hate begets bias, and hate, I will never.

I've always regarded the northerners highly irrespective of anybody else's opinion of them. This I did so much that I overlooked their killer instincts... Because I had hopes that given time and awareness, they'll change.

But after Sanusi's utterances, even some of the most educated northerners I know (knew?) said things that didn't sit well with me. I have lived with the northerners long enough to know that they always see their intentions through.

When Sanusi was being attacked from all quarters for speaking the obvious truth, I was bemused. But, when the educated threatened violence and murder, I was forced to admit that some things will never change. I realised then that not even education will change the people for whom I had so much hope.

They saw his comments as an attack on Islam. I had to take an exception to such mentality. I used to think that their nefarious acts were fueled by ignorance, but those incidences proved that there is purpose to them.

To some of them, religion is worth killing over. Religion is a personal choice, but they have made it a coercive venture rather than a compelling one. It's hard to reason with people who can't see past religion.

I mean, the Muslim north comprises over 80% great people, but the 20% bad eggs shout the loudest and make decisions for the 80%. As the 80% struggle to find their daily meals, the 20% get about giving them a voice and image, a bad bad one at that. I have seen it directly.

As a result, my comments here are statements of truth. It does not apply to the 80%. I have friends, known persons and acquaintances, who fall within this group, and most of them speak in unison how they are not comfortable with the actions of their fellows.

The guy (Demmie Vee) is talented, no doubt.

Op, na wa o. Try to space out with paragraphs nah.
Interesting read but you said 214 Nigerians, do you mean 214 million Nigerians?

Btw, I was wondering why boko haram turned their eyes to the palatial home of the indimis. With the way Borno is unsafe, the Indimis aren't moved.

The GRA where the Indimis live has long proved impenetrable to Boko Haram. The place is one of Maiduguri's tall walls (figuratively). It can be destroyed only from within.

It is a fortress not just for its tight security, but also because that's where the pipers live. Literally.

Not even BH can bite the fingers that feed it.

Wow.

This is an impressive, thought-provoking piece!
