GMB and Atiku having secrete meeting... Sorry, how does that concerns me?
Here in Canada were am a Manager, we dnt do secrete meetings :/

" am 21, am matured, i know whats good for me, u
don't need to tell me what to do" is what a young
female will tell anybody dat corrects her whenever she
does something unmatured.
"baby you are matured nw..why are u behaving like a
small child. Lets do dis thing once and for all" is what a
guy tells a lady to have sex with her when he
understands that she is not matured.
" guy, u dey do like say u never mature oo...abeg shine
ur eye, no de dull boyz jharee..no b today we de do dis
thing..if u no go mature, we go find person wey mature
make e join us..' is what criminal minded fellows tells a
juvenile, to lure him into crime..
Its quite laughable when one deceives him/herself with
the aforementioned statements with d thoughts that it
is what maturity is all about..
Throughout my years in skul, i came across varieties of
statements defining maturity but the one i considered
'acceptable' to me is the one that says;
"Maturity is a psychological term used to indicate how
a person responds to the circumstance of the
enviroment in an appropriate manner: the adult with a
true maturity is one who has grown out of childhood
experiences without losing childhood best traits. He
has obtained the basic emotional strength of infancy,
the stubborn autonomy of toddlerhood, the capacity
for wonder, pleasure and playfullness of preschool
age, the capacity for affiliation and intellectual curiosity
of the school years, the idealism and passion of
adolescence. He has incorporated these into a new
pattern of simplicity dominated by adult stabillity,
wisdom, knowledge, sensitivity to other people,
responsibillity, strength and purposefullness.
If dis is what maturity entails, then who am i?
- is it maturity for me to sag my trouser nd move on
the street in d name of 'ass down'
when i knw within me that it isnt the right thing to do?
-am i matured if at the age of 35, i fight with old men
on ATM ques just for the singular reason of 'i came
before u' ?
- how matured am i to date more than a single lady/
guy
at a time just for the reason

My ordeal!!

I was in abuja some days back, I priced an average belt for 400naira, d last price ws 500naira so I didn't buy wen I came to Lapai niger state, I bought a belt better than the one I priced in abuja for just 200naira.
Again, I wantd buying a wallet, in abuja it was 800naira last. I came to Lapai and I bought it 400naira.
Am asking, why are price of things in abuja 2times that of other state? Is it the wholsalers that hikes the price or the retailers??

The answer is 4!

[1-0+3] is not and can neva be = 4
Because -*+= -
Therefore
=> 1-3=-2

So,
2-[-2]=4
Thr4, d ansa is 4

Which of these doors will you enter??

Lawmakers
spearheading the planned impeachment of
President Goodluck Jonathan have identified 50
constitutional violations by the president, for which
he should be removed. According to Vanguard, the
violations will form part of the impeachment
notice.

More than 120 lawmakers have been reported to
have appended their signatures for the
impeachment of the president, with most of them
being members of the House of Representatives.
Indications have now emerged that a significant
number of members of the Senate are now on the
same page with the lower house on the
impeachment issue.

Vanguard quoted a top officer in the House as
saying that both chambers have resolved to work
together on the President’s impeachment over
“incompetence, corruption and unprecedented
impunity.” The planned removal of the president,
according to him, was to serve the common good
of the country.

Speaking further, the lawmaker told Vanguard that
the impeachment plot has nothing to do with any
party, saying lawmakers from all the political
parties represented on the National Assembly have
identified with the cause.

“I’m sure you read the reports today that senators
are going to move against Jonathan. Now you can
confirm that the impeachment thing is not about
APC. It is a non-partisan cause. We have all
resolved that the man (President Jonathan) must
go.

“Never in the history of Nigeria has a leader
displayed such crass incompetence as we have
seen in President Jonathan. It is glaring and you
can feel it. Mr. President, with due respect, has
shown that he is not capable of running this
country. That is the basic truth,” he stated.



[b]So my fellow nairalanders, do you agree to this??[b]

This quiet unfortunate, Nigeria is which seen as 'giant of africa' is holding the 19th position after another terrible devaluation of the naira to 176naira per dollar

There was this man who married two wives, when his second wife was 7monts pregnant, he died. His second wife gave birth after his death and shortly after, she abandoned her new born baby and left her husband's house to marry another man. This new baby named Saleem was now under the care of his step mother who couldn't give birth to a child cos she was barren. She took care of this boy as her own biological son, cater for him, care for him and all that. Till he became a successful an rich man. He later became one of th elites of his community.

On hearing this, (that the man has become successful) his biological mother, after 29years then decided to return to her 'husband's house' to claim her son. She wasn't rejected anyway... After a short while, she told her son that she don't want to stay in the same house with her husband's wife(the man's step mother) she told her son that let him get a house far away so they can move to the house together. At this point, this young man is confused whether to listen to his biological mother (knowing the consequences of disobeying mothers)

Pls if u are in his position, what decision will u make? Ur contribution can be the one to save this puzzled young man. Thank u as u contribute.

Professor Akasoba Duke-Abiola , one of the wives
of late politician, Chief M.K.O. Abiola, has
dragged the People Democratic Party, PDP,
before a Federal High Court, sitting in Abuja for
declaring President Goodluck Jonathan as its
sole candidate in the 2015 elections.
Vanguard reports that Abiola claimed that she paid
the mandatory sum of Two Million Naira to the party
to obtain the expression form for presidential
election, which she claimed she was entitled to, but
was denied by the party.
Abiola has urged the court declare that INEC cannot
accept any candidate fielded by the party for
purposes of the Presidential Election in 2015, by
reason of the provisions of Section 87 (9) of the
Electoral Act, 2010.
No date has been fixed for the case.
Meanwhile Professor Akasoba Duke-Abiola is not
the only person angry over this development, It was
reported, recently, that Tafawa Balewa’s son, Dr
Abdul Jelil has also vowed to drag the PDP to court
for being denied the Presidential form.

It would be noted that Tambuwal’s move caused a
highly-publicized scandal in Nigeria’s politics. Today
as he spoke at the 6th anniversary celebration of
Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State, the
politician explained that the dumped the ruling party
because the system had been “hijacked” by a
“cabal”, The Nation reports.
He concluded that such system needed to be
changed.
“We have accepted to join the movement of
progressives to change the system. The system
today is malfunctioning and has failed in several
ways. You have to change a system that is not
working. We have a cabal that has hijacked the
instrument of authority. We should vote them out in
February. What do the people of the South South
have to show for voting the President? Nothing.”
Tambuwal expressed concern that people from the
South South may vote for the leader in 2015
elections based on the sentiments saying however
that mere sentiments would not produce a good
leader. Thus, the speaker urged people not to be
deceived by sentiments.

For those who don't know, Imo State Governor,
Rochas Okorocha, is contesting in next year's
presidential election. Below is what he said during
his declaration at a rally on Monday Nov. 10th.

“My people, in 2015 I will be the president of the
country. Three months ago when I said I want to
be president they asked, “Can an Igboman be
president? But now when they count those
contesting for president they will first count
Rochas Okorocha, before Buhari, Atiku Abubakar
and Kwankwaso. When they said they have zoned
the presidency to the North, I asked, When was
the meeting held? Now we have zoned it to
Igboland. In 2015, there will be a turnaround in
the fortunes of Ndigbo. They only know
themselves; they don’t care about Igbo. APC is an
emergency party for a new Nigeria; I would not
have joined APC if PDP was doing well. We will
defeat PDP in 2015,”

Hehehehehe everybody wants to contest for president. Am also thinking of declaring my interest too

There are reports that a female suicide bomber blew
herself up this afternoon at the Federal College of
Education Kontagora in Niger state. Fortunately she
killed only herself, though several students were
reportedly injured. This is quiet terrible, we all thought bombing has come to an end, but it has'nt. Pls let's remember to be careful and try to know those around us.

Nawa for this country with political propaganda. Because visitors will be in abuja today from far and beyond cos of GEJ's public declaration, there has been light in abuja for the whole day. This has never happened before since his inception as the president.

There's this gal I met 9months ago in my school. A very beautiful gal, shez 'every guys' choice, infact shez one of the hottest babe in th campus(IBB uni). Afta exchanging contacts, we've been good friends. My initial motive toward her is to date her, but I didn't rush my ambition towards her. I took my time 'planting' myself in her mind by calling her ATLEAST once everyday. Weneva I call her, we spend couple of minutes on the phone, we usually have a smooth conversation and I believe she alwys enjoy our conversation cos I try to create a sense of humor. I tried to be a friend of her friends(she has just 2 friend) and I succeeded to a great extent. In a nut-shell, here in my ordeal... For the fact that she obviously enjoys our conversation ova d phn, she has neva called me 4 once. At 1st, she dnt return my calls until I talkd to her abt it. She has never called me one day just to hear from me or just to say "Hi" it puzzles me. Atyms wen I call her, she'll tell me that she was just thinking abt me. There is 1 thing I sincerely love abt her, she doesn't lie no matter what. She tells u the truth not minding if it hurts. When I askd her if she has a boyfriend she told me no. She also told me that guys ar on her neck.

My problem is this, I'm scared of throwing my dignity b4 her, asking her out and she turns me down abruptly... Pls how do I know if she loves me? Pls advice me on this 1, what shud I do?
