Christianity EtcRe: How My Leg Got Caught By A Trap But Only My Footwear Sustained Injuries by Manliness(m): 7:26pm On Oct 06, 2016
Yes, this post made absolutely NO SENSE!

From the fact that it was posted in the religion section to the people claiming it was staged to glorify God and the OP for tagging this divine intervention. This is the problem with Nigeria, with all this religious nonsense, dude the small voice talking to you was your fuckin mind giving you common sense that you simply do not go in the bushes barefoot, even kids know that. And Duh! your foot didn't get pierced thanks to your footwear, also you don't even know how good of a trap that was, there are sooooo many factors left unconsidered before you tagged it divine intervention! God has more important things to do.

There is nothing extraordinary about the post, matter of fact this is an extraordinarily ordinary post.

PoliticsRe: Nigerian Deportee From Kenya Narrates Ordeal by Manliness(m):
Haha Chinedu is a clown, trying to act like a responsible citizen when everyone knows his hands aren't clean, he's like the most popular nigerian in kenya, and I've met him personally on a few occasions, his ex wife had the connections to the minister which is why he married her, they were more like business partners, yes drugs, and with the minister's influence they would move their merchandise out and into the country without trouble, they got into some money trouble and he got outsmarted by his wife and the minister. Now he's just broke and bitter. Those days if you're a nigerian in kenya with the intention of pushing drugs, Chinedu is the guy to meet... he's just getting a piece of his own shit!.

And to all those shouting "ordinary kenya for that matter", suck up your giant of africa syndrome, those days are gone and smaller countries are coming up and catching up fast, as a country working with less than half the budget of nigeria, kenya is more comfortable to live in than nigeria, and note that I didnt say, more developed, but more comfortable and less frustrating, y'all need to go there before making conclusions, its a tourist location and kenyans are usually friendly and welcoming, my experience... the truth is, nigerians bring these things on themselves because a high percentage of them in kenya are into illegal businesses, and trust me, you'll be amazed at the population of nigerians there, respect is earned.

FashionRe: The Most Handsome Guy On Nairaland. by Manliness(m): 12:20pm On May 29, 2013
If only people would just make comments based on the title of the thread, his looks, not his age, he's young, so what? The fact that y'all couldn't talk among adults during your days doesn't mean you have to remind him of that fact, putting someone down just to give yourself some self worth, smh, last I checked, there are young billionaires springing up here and there nowadays, give him a break... being young in this century is a thing to be proud of.

@OP, you're good looking, you need to start working out tho, now is the time to start building those guns, since you're young, it'll be easier. But me fine pass you sha, no offence lol.
TV/MoviesRe: Bollywood Vs Hollywood - Which Is Better? by Manliness(m): 12:01am On May 25, 2013
donroxy: Okrika self get Quality grin
Abeg tell them ooh!

Obi1kenobi: I mean, watch Meryl Streep's depiction of Margaret Thatcher in "The Iron Lady".
Or Forest Whittaker's depiction of Idi Amin in "The Last King of Scotland".
Or Natalie Portman's acting as a troubled ballerina in "The Black Swan".
Or Russel Crowe in "A Beautiful Mind"

These are Oscar-winning roles of immense depth and technical difficulty. Whittaker had to assiduously research Amin's history and learn his accent and Idiosyncrasies and it took him close to a year. Portman, who already had a background in ballet had to take intense ballet training for close to a year. Meryl Streep had to polish her accent and learn Thatcher's mannerisms. Crowe was just a genius.

How can anyone watch those and claim Indian movies, with their generic, banal offerings are better. Truly, the mind boggles.
People don't realize you have to consider all these before thinking of comparing the two industries. On point bro!

donroxy: Don't Mind Afam4Ever,


I swear ...... HollyWood will still beat BollyWood in Indian movie productions !!!

Let HollyWood produces a Movie specifically storylined on Indian History even without using any Indian actor/actress nor Actor/Actress of Indian Descent ........JUST AMERICANS on INDIAN CUSTUMES !!!



Let Bollywood produces same Movie ..... grin !!! Abeg compare BollyWood with GhollyNollyWood where actor/Actress receives what to say from the Director who is standing behind the cameraman before uttering the next statement grin ....... Unprofessional bunch!!!


There is no 100percent accuracy level in HollyWood Movies but when u say a ''MOVIE is Close to Perfection'' ...........HOLLYWOOD IS PERFECT !!!


HollyWood Actor/Actress produces and interprete roles as if their whole life depend on it ..... AND

Truly,their whole life depended on it !!!
Gbam... well said! I'm sure hollywood will beat them at their own game. Khaki no be leather, shoe get size!.
TV/MoviesRe: Bollywood Vs Hollywood - Which Is Better? by Manliness(m): 3:51pm On May 24, 2013
Afam4eva: All the Bollywood rip-offs of Hollywood movies that i've watched are usually better than the original. I remember watching this Indian movie that was a rip off of a movie that starred jamie Foxx and Tom cruise and i prefered it to the original. There's something about Bollywood movies that i like.
Duh! Of course rip offs will be better, when you work on an old project several years later, you don't expect they won't do a better job... you don't expect remakes to be of less quality than the originals, but that doesn't change what it is, a rip off!. Give credit.
TV/MoviesRe: Bollywood Vs Hollywood - Which Is Better? by Manliness(m):
It's funny how people just wake up these days and think "how can I bash America today?"...smh, I love bollywood movies, but making that a basis for comparison to hollywood is very laughable, yes they've made a handful of good movies of late, but ffs there are tons more top quality hollywood movies... even from the 90's, that will beat the very best outta bollywood. Abeg leave personal anti-american sentiments aside and be realistic. Shuoo!.

victorv12: Nigerians can do better!!
And that conclusion is based upon the fact that one man is wanted? I'm pretty sure nigerians make a very low percentage of the FBI's most wanted databases. And I doubt the authenticity of that picture because the FBI isnt even the jurisdiction over financial crimes and bank fraud, the Secret Service is.
HealthRe: Vast of Bracket Is Totally Healed Of Cancer by Manliness(m): 11:06pm On May 12, 2013

Dude says He s Healed. That is the supernatural, that is His confession and while I do not discount or down play your daughter Phd status( and I am one myself) I will be a fool to trust a cancer research institute over my Testimony.
Dude, after all the chemo's, therapy, and treatment in the UK, how the F is this supernatural? No, you'd be a fool not to trust in medical science which credit goes to. You, Sir, don't get the point.

spikes C: No one is condoning crime but dude, i can assure you, You don't know what our guys are capable of doing. You just don't know wink
I can assure you that I do know, there are countries known for various corrupt activities, drug related activities are synonymous to mexicans, cubans, some carribean countries, cyber crimes - russia is king, maybe nepal, vietnam, and very few european countries, this heist might be carried out in the states, but americans hardly know how to exploit their own systems, i'm sure majority are foreigners. Nigeria - romance scams, yes maybe some credit card or bank fraud, but most of them buy these tools (identities, card info's called dumps on the black market, and bank-logins) from russians, and just know how to apply them. So nigerians be able to make transfers out of bank accounts, or encode card info onto magnetic stripes and shop, but they are hardly the source of all those info, they hardly do any hacking, just basic stuff really. Give more credit to the source, and not the application.

So, man, I know.

oseiwe: I am referring to d num of withdrawals to d amount and pple involved. Nigerians cant do ATM blast but dey are up and running wit internet transfers. Dere is no official figure for now, but d ones dat I'm tracing are frightening.
val_dee: What are you arguing on about?

Will you just stop?
Exactly! Stop overrating naija fraud and give credit to the real black-hats here, though not condoning their actions.

Nigerians do not hack into any accounts, nor do they partake in the hacking, the most they do is phishing (creating clone websites of financial institutions to steal info) which is really easy, you see it on the fake GTB emails everyday, you don't even have to be a good web designer fo' that. For the bank transfers, they just "buy" bank-logins and account details from hackers/black-hats like these, and its not rocket science to do a transfer once you have login info, all you need is a destination account which can also be bought or opened with fake ID's, now thats newbie sh*t. I think a heist like this can hardly be pulled off by our naija ppl, because greediness would kill the operation before it even gets started. You have to admire the way the ring united from different parts of the world to pull off the heist.

All this naija boys overrating don tire me, educate yourself first!.
PoliticsRe: Prophet Reveals Prophecies For President Jonathan (watch Video) by Manliness(m): 3:09am On Sep 16, 2012
Nigerians and their spirituality and being religious, like someone said... these are NOT prophecies, any reasonable person could for-see all this, old men talk about this in beer parlors everyday, I guess they're prophets as well? lol. Throughout the so-called prophecies, he's church advert was on the bottom of the screen... I'm sure this marketing strategy is targeted at people who are dumb enough to believe it, or people who don't know they're smart enough to have predicted this right from time.
CelebritiesRe: Davido Flaunts His Gold Jewelry On Twitter by Manliness(m): 3:52pm On Sep 12, 2012
obailala: Can someone please tell me what is wrong in buying gold especially if the person is financially capable

How does buying gold make him foolish?? Remember, gold is an asset and not a liability

How does buying gold make him childish?? btw he never denied that he was a child

I hear some people here calling it vanity but that's just a classical proof of poverty mentality

Some people say its not their business: if it's not ur business, why did u bother opening this thread? are u so jobless?

Some people keep asking why any story about davido, wizkid, dbanj etc always makes the front page no matter how silly: The answer is simple, 'they are celebrities and u are not.' Get that into ur thick skulls please thank you for this, I dont know people's problem o


Nigerians really need to wake up from this unnecessary hate and envy bad belle towards our own celebrities. If jay-z or rozay fronts blink blinks, we praise them and say they are bosses but when dbanj buys a bentley, the next thing is a rain of insults. Anyway, thank God for a website like NL where people get to express their true personalities under the guise of anonymity. I've truly learnt a lot about Nigerians from this site.
Most Sensible post on this thread! Nigerian Government isn't the problem, Nigerians are... How can we grow with all this beefing attitude? Yes, he's a small boy, but he took some bold steps to attain the height he has achieved today which I'm sure many of you old men here haven't dreamt of!, He does what makes him happy, and as long as it doesn't hurt no one, then don't beef! I'm sure if most of you here had that opportunity, you'll do worse! And Yes, Gold is an asset - dumbasses!

Thanks.

Jokes EtcMan Loses Wife by Manliness(op): 10:19am On Apr 12, 2012
A man and his ever-nagging wife went on vacation to Jerusalem. While they were there, the wife passed away.
The undertaker told the Husband "You can have her shipped home for $5,000,or you can bury her here, in the Holy Land, for $150."
The man thought about it and told him he would just have her shipped home.
The undertaker asked, "Why would you spend $5,000 to ship your wife home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only $150?"
The man replied, "Long ago a man died here, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead. I just can't take that chance." grin grin grin
Jokes EtcRe: Nigerian Brain . . . by Manliness(m): 11:39am On Apr 11, 2012
free2ryhme: This is not a story but a true incident that happened in USA.*
An Nigerian man walked into a bank in New York City one day and asked for
the loan officer.
He told the loan officer that he was going to Nigeria on business for two
weeks and needed to borrow $5,000.
The bank officer told him that the bank would need some form of
security for the loan. The Nigerian man handed
over the keys to a new Ferrari parked on the street in front of the
bank. He produced the title and everything
checked out.
The loan officer agreed to accept the car as collateral for the loan.
The bank's president and its officers all enjoyed a good laugh at the
Nigerian for using a $250,000 Ferrari as
collateral against a $5,000 loan.
An employee of the bank then drove the Ferrari into the bank's
underground garage and parked it there.
Two weeks later, the Nigerian returned, repaid the $5,000 and the
interest, which came to $15.41.
The loan officer said, Sir, we are very happy to have had your
business, and this transaction has worked out very
nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked
you out and found that you are a multi
millionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000
The Nigerian replied: Where else in New York City can I park my car for
two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return'
Ah, the brain of the Nigerian... This is why Nigeria is shining . .
Chairman, why u come twist the joke like dis na? When I read this joke, it had nothing to do with a Nigerian lol...nice joke tho'

I'm having concerns about presenting this to the embassy, I would like to know if theres anyway around it, would the embassy probably accept a confirmation of result issued from WAEC? or can I go with a printout and scratch card? is that accepted? Please guyz advise me on what to do, thanks.
