**Ladies:....will you approve/be comfortable with
this type of list to be presented to your husband

what will you do if you're given such a list? Will you go to this extent to marry the love of your life?..... Pls I need ur advice

Things-Men-and-Women-Think-After-s
It’s very evident that the world has
now taken turn in such a way that s*x
is now the thing invoke among youths.
In recent time, the concept of
relationship has been wrongly
interpreted by guys specifically that
they boast and receive appraisal from
friends when they get laid.

However, to some guys, kitty-cat is the
motive behind their going into
relationships, that’s why they act like
their world revolve around it, thereby
walk-bouncing the street and bragging
to their friends when a lady fails prey
to them

NOTE: This is not a generalization of
all guys cos I know for sure that an
averagely sizable number of us are
way too matured beyond doing these
shameful acts and display of
immaturity.

Without wasting time, I shall discuss
the shameful things guys do after
getting under the skirt of ladies, (and
in some cases their supposed
girlfriends)

Lemme keep the ball rolling cool

1. They Brag When In The Midst Of
Friends

Guys who act this way are nothing but
scum in my personal opinion. I don’t
know why some guys are so dumb
that something done in secret becomes
a public issue. Few weeks ago, I was
in Ado-Ekiti when a lady visited me.
Gbaaaaam !!!! I locked ourselves up
for nearly four hours cheesy and when
she was about going, I took a few
minutes walk with her half way and
after returning back, see as my guys
begin hail and even congratulated me
like say my Bet9ja ticket click. They
were asking if I actually I did it, and I
was like whaatdaafccck is that? Some
guys will even lie even if they never
did it. This is just to boast their ego

2. They Show to Their friends Already
Used Condoorrrm

Some of them are even dumb and
immature that they will take their
friends to their room and show to
them the already used condom so that
their friends will not think they are
telling lies.

3 They Snap Pictures

I have no atom of respect for guys who
involve in this silly act. I just can’t but
shake my head for guys who are guilty
of this act. Few months ago, one dumb
guy in my villa was showing to his
friends the selfie taken during the
deed. This is nothing but the greatest
height of stupidity and immaturity at
PhD level.

4. They Give The Girl’s Phone Number
To Their Friend

This is another shameful thing some
guys do. After the deed, some of them
will give out the girl’s number to their
friends telling them how professional
skillful she’s on the bed. The mumu
friends sef go collect the number
begin chase the girl

5. They Suddenly Become Unnecessarily
Authoritative

To some guys, they believe that a lady
will not have an atom of respect for
them until they got her laid. However,
guys with this mentality always act
like ladies puppet but will suddenly
become authoritative just like Ayo
Fayose the moment their purpose has
been fulfilled. That is, they start
springing surprises and doing things
the way they like and will command
obedience from the lady by force.

6. They Stop Showing Affection

It is of no doubt that the worth of
some guys, is measured by the
strategies used to cajole and get ladies
bleeped. This however gives some of
them an assurance of self worth and
handsomeness. When some of them
manage to find their way there, that is
when they drastically show interest
and act like the ladies is the forcing
herself on them *yeye people*

7. They Delete and Block Her

Another shameful practice some dumb
and silly guys are guilty of. They used
to call frequently and chat her up, but
after the deed, they will stop ringing
her up and even avoid her calls. The
lady in question becomes worthless to
them because they have got what them
find joy in.

8. They Start Nagging

I swear, guys who do this are nothing
but eeeedioots. Some of them can be
so tolerant that that can even eat poo,
but when their mission is
accomplished they pick offence for
everything. That is when they know
that she’s not pretty, and has a poor
test in fashion.

9. They Expect Her To Start Chasing Them

Guys who act like this need a knock on
the head. They used to do the calling
most of the time, and also used to chat
her up frequently, but when they just
manage to do what pleases their heart,
they stop ringing her up or even pick
their calls

10. Feel free to add the Last one

Barrister Mark Nzamah Jacob, a
former Commissioner of Justice and
Attorney General, Kaduna state, who
was a key player in the Neighbour -2-
Neighbour campaign that retained the
then President, Goodluck Jonathan in
Power, has given insights on how the
North would produce the People’s
Democratic Party (PDP) presidential
ticket in 2019.

Jacob, who is usually referred to as a
‘restless advocate’ of the right of the
Middle Belt, in a recent chat with
Vanguard, said he was happy with the
2019 Presidential ticket zoned to the
North by the PDP.

He said, “The 2019 Presidential ticket
to the North zoned by the PDP is in
sync with me. I have no problem with
that, except that some of us would like
to know which kind of North the PDP
is talking about. Because, there is a
section of the North that believes that
it’s the only part of the North.

“Even when it is a minority in the
North, it arrogates the definition of the
North to itself.

“If the PDP is talking about a north
that includes me from Southern
Kaduna, that includes the Idoma man
from Benue, the Nupe man from
Niger, the Bachama man from
Adamawa, then I am happy. So, let no
one think that the zoning of the ticket
to the North is for Hausa/Fulani. They
have had their share of power.

“The late President Yar’adua and now
President Buhari are Hausa/Fulani.
“That is enough. It is the turn of the
majority of the North who are the
other ethnic nationalities scattered in
14 Northern states.

“Let the Hausa/Fulani never imagine
rearing their heads near the ticket
when the time comes,” Jacob noted.

International Federation of Women Lawyers, (FIDA) has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of marginalizing the women folk in the list of ministerial nominees submitted to the Senate for screening.

Chairperson of the Kwara state FIDA, Mrs. Oluronke Adeyemi ‎said this yesterday in Ilorin, the state capital as parts of activities to mark its week.

‎Mrs. Adeyemi said that: “We are surprised with just one lady among the ministerial nominees. It is not acceptable to us and other women in the country. Nigeria have women who merit the ministerial list.

“We support the president’s effort at appointing credible people. He should appoint credible people even if they are all from the same state. Nigerians should learn to do things in a new way. Whether all the ministers are Christian, Muslim or from one part of the country, all we need are competent people to drive the nation to greater height but number of women should be increased because we have many of them who have impact in their chosen careers.”

On the theme of this year’s celebration titled “Protecting the Children, securing our future, she said that the society cannot continue to pretend that all is well the Nigerian children which was why the association is calling the attention of all to the plight.

She said “many children have been assaulted, some were poured hot water, some burnt, mercilessly beaten while others were put to hard labour. Many of them lived among us and we have invited about 350 teachers across the state to come and listen to experts talk on how to identify these categories of children and how to access help for them.
On rights of children, Adeyemi said ‎there are laws in place on abuse of children but people are not willing to press charges.

“Those who inflict pains on children does that on orphans. The problem is a systemic issue and to solve the problem of children abuse there should be laws allowing taking children away from the cruel hand. It is working in Kwara state already and a family court has been established in Kwara to look at domestic violence including children’s maltreatment,” she added

‎She stated further while condemning Boko Haram attacks in the country that their programme is targeted at preventing another set of Boko Haram with FIDA week this year.

She added that “any child raised with cruelty will grow up to be cruel. We have no value for human lives; It obvious that they aren’t fighting to Islamise Nigeria but to destroy the country. I Prayed for President to succeed in the war against terror and I urged all Nigerians to support the government. I believed in discipline but discouraged been cruel to children.”

Mods, FP straight... Let other guys learn from this

I thought this only happens in movies

This info direct from eye witness about an ND 2 boy from department of Agric Engineering Yaba College Of Technology, Yaba Lagos. It was reported by an eye witness that a young boy took an insecticide normally use to kill bed bug locally call SNIPER, below is the full gist.

reports..by..a...student::"Just at the late hour of the night, suddenly we heard a noised from a particular room at complex male hostel about this guy that was about to give up in his room, but the big shout of help by the fellow room mate caught the attentions of other students in their various room and everybody run towards the direction of the noise and rush the person in question to the school clinic for quick medical attention.

With the help of the medical personnel the boy was revived back to life and he was been question on what happen to him that makes him loose his consciousness, when the boy will open his mouth to talk he said he took the insecticide locally call SNIPER because his girlfriend said she is no more interested anymore, all other fellow student present shout out at the top of their voice and echo SNIPER? the scene wasn't funny but the responds got everyone amazed that a boy can actually plan to give up his life because a lady said she is not interested in dating him anymore. That was how the story of sniper begin on campus right from 30th of September till date. It is now the common joke on campus that is been said by the majority of the students.

I sincerely think that as Nigerians, we need to
embrace science and technology, study it and
understand it as much as we studied and
understand religion and faith. It will do us a
great deal!

I am devoted Christian, but the way we allow
religion and faith kill us is amazing! You
board a vehicle from a motor park, with
driver, and instead of trying to check and ask
questions if the driver is qualified, licensed, fit,
not under alcoholic influence we’ll rather
prefer to donate monies to fake preachers
who board to tell you how people die on road
accidents because they did not donate
monies to pastors.

They preach and tell you how to cover the
driver, vehicle, tyres and steering with the
blood of Jesus, and we all shout a loud
‘Amen’.

Why do we derive joy in looking for witches
and wizards, when we fail to do the primary
things to guarantee our safety? For how long
can the blood of Jesus allow decrepit vehicles
convey us from Abuja to Lagos?

I will prefer we have technical experts visit
motor parks, instead of fake pastors, and
sensitise passengers on how to spot
inexperienced, unlicensed or drunk drivers,
and what to check out for before boarding
any commercial vehicle. They should advice
technically on the conditions of vehicles
before going on the roads. The bad side is
that Nigerians are not good in voluntary
assignments that do not pay and road users
will not be willing to give tips to such
volunteers. They prefer to give to men of God
who threaten them with hell fire and dangers.

This is why I prefer to fly when on long trips,
because the road transport industry and
system in Nigeria is suicide mission, and has
little or no functional regulatory body and so
anyone can bring any vehicle and anyone as
driver. Admittedly, our airways are not as
safe, however, the industry is run by highly
specialised professionals who have so much
at stake in the event of any accident.

Created in February 1988, the Federal Road
Safety Commission, FRSC, which functions
generally relates to making the highway safe
for motorists and other road users, has failed
and its purpose almost defeated.

A similar body, the Vehicle Inspection Office
Driver and Vehicle Licensing Administration
(VIO-DVLA) which primary aim is to
standardise drivers’ license certification
process and maintain a database of certified
drivers and vehicles for the enforcement of
road traffic laws in Nigeria, has also not lived
up to expectations.

As the rate of road accidents increase in
Nigeria on daily basis, it becomes urgent that
the government looks into existing regulatory
bodies or create new ones and mandate them
to work closely with road transport
companies.

I appeal we separate religion/faith from reality
(science and technology) because if we have
good vehicles, good and fit drivers and new
tyres, the rate of our road accidents on our
roads will reduce, while a large amount of the
blood of Jesus would be saved for better
things.

We all know speed is a major factor in many
accidents. However, speeding causes not all
accidents and not all accidents are
preventable. Yet there are steps you can take
to help prevent accidents. These include
driving slowly when the weather is bad.

Replace worn tyres and brakes as needed.
Keep windshield washer fluid full and change
out windshield wipers on a regular basis.

Not only do seatbelts keep you safe in an
accident, it will help avoid accidents as well.
Seatbelts will hold you in place during an
aggressive manouvre. Back off and do not
tailgate or allow others to tailgate you.

Do not assume the other vehicles will stop
just because the light is red.Do not drive
behind an 18-wheeler on the highway. A
blown tyre can cause an accident.

Do not rely on your mirrors when making a
lane change. All vehicles have “blind spots” in
which your mirrors cannot see. Do not ride in
the blind spots of other vehicles.

Always keep your windshield wipers going in
the rain. Defrost your windshield to keep it
from fogging up. Turn on your headlights to
help others to see you–this is also the law in
some states.

It is always best to have a “designated
driver”. Never drive after you have had
alcoholic beverages. Even one beer can alter
your ability to drive safely.

Always use your signal, even if you think no
one is there. When changing lanes on the
freeway, do not signal as an afterthought or
during the lane change. Signal at least a
couple of seconds in advance so others know
what you are going to do before you do it.

Hmmmmmm

An average Nigerian with a low budget
face this type of dilemma often, most
especially the people that want to buy
their first car but they don’t have that
millions of Naira to splash out on a car.
In as much as I hate to disagree, cars
are liability and you get to start
spending on it immediately you make
payment. Of course you get to spend
by fueling the car but it also have its
importance.

Back to the Topic, Which Type Of Car
Should I Buy?

Answer : Buy something you can
maintain even if it means waiting to
complete the figures.

1. Maintenance of a car: is the basic
thing every car owner must consider
before making payment.

Do a thorough research, ask questions
from anonymous mechanics that is not
affiliated with the dealer or seller
about the type of Car you want to
purchase if it’s worth it and be very
sure you’re not going to pay for a car
you won’t be able to afford its parts.

2. Are the parts available in the market?
This has to come next to maintenance
of a car, don’t just wake up one day
and go for that beauty you found
available because you want to drive
around like a boss!

Mechanical parts are not to be trusted,
the car you park can develop a fault
when you restart the ignition. Yes it’s
that weird.

You must have seen cases of some
expensive cars parked and you’d
wonder why the owner abandon his/
her car on a strange spot.
Unavailable or expensive parts could
be the cause. Most times, it’s the cause.
That Mechanic around your area can
testify to the above.

3. Fuel consumption: are you that guy
or lady that have a specific budget to
spend for a certain period of time,
please avoid buying a car that
consume fuel because you’ll realise
you’re spending above what you’ve
budgeted.

4. Your road: Although this one might
not seem like an excuse but this is
what realacars is all about, we’re not
going to assume all our audience have
good roads.

As the case might be, it’s not possible.
If you fall into this category you really
should think about this clue.

Don’t force your car to follow that bad
roads, cars run with engines and
parts. Don’t be surprise if your car
suffer alignment and shock absorber
problem often if you persists.

You can as well get the car but
minimize the number of times you
force it on that bad road.

There are lots more we will share
with our readers subsequently on
realacars.com and we’ll try as much
as possible to publish affordable cars
that are in good condition on this
webpage.

Buhari... Buhari... Buhari how many times i call u? So person no fit put drinks for fridge again? Must we be America for Goodness sake? this kind constant light u wan turn us to 'yan wuta ne or wetin? I missed buying fuel for my Gen.

Please who knows the where about of Senator Buruji Kashamu? It's been long we last heard about him. Has he been finally extradited by the US?

hmmmmmm

President Muhammadu Buhari has said that the
attempts to link the ongoing trial of the Senate
President Bukola Saraki to him are unacceptable.
President Buhari said this in a statement on
Sunday by his Senior Special Assistant on Media
and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu.

He said views to the effect that the Code of
Conduct Bureau (CCB) and the Code of Conduct
Tribunal (CCT) could only act upon external
instigation were equally uninformed.

According to the presidential aide, there is no
place in law that the Bureau and the Tribunal
should take instructions from any quarters.

He said as an independent institution equal to any
superior court of record; the tribunal is set up by
the constitution to determine the issue of default,
false declaration or forgery in assets declaration.

"This therefore is purely a judicial process and
has nothing to do with the Presidency", he said.
He said those who had an axe to grind with what
they are doing should do it in a judicial manner
by challenging those actions in a proper court of
law.

"Let them hire a good team of lawyers to prove
their innocence," Shehu said.

"Government has no desire to persecute anybody.
The President has vowed to respect the rule of
law and this is what he is doing by staying out of
this matter. He has said times without number
that the war against corruption has no sacred
cows," he added.

Shehu noted that "Even if the president wants to
help, there is no way he can do anything. Is he
going to ask the judge to stop the trial?"

Here is a funny poster of a church in New garage, Gbagada, Lagos.

All these mushroom churches sef!!!

Ruth Idi Okpoto, Now Mrs. Rith Omopariola-Bolarinwa is a deaf lady and she’s University of Ilorin’s Best Graduating student from the Faculty of Education in 2009.

Ruth has cried out for help after searching for a good and well paying job six years after she graduated from school.

In an email she sent to Education Review & obtained by The Sun, Ruth who is now a married mother of one, narrated her fruitless efforts in searching for a well paying job.

She shared on how tribalism, nepotism and her deafness have militated against her getting a job that will tally with her educational qualification.

She says she currently works at a school in Ogun state where she coordinates the PTA group. She called on her alma mata, Exxon Mobil and others to help her with a job.

Excerpts of the email below:

“To set the record straight I am not a deaf-mute. Not all deaf people are dummies. I am a bilingual deaf person with a mild hearing loss. I became deaf in 1997 at the age of 15 while in SS 1 at Dairy Farm Secondary School, Lagos.

I have already acquired language proficiency before the sickness that caused my hearing loss started then. After the illness, I discovered I couldn’t hear very well whenever people talk to me unless I read their lips. Despite this hearing difficulty, I continued my education at the school.

“At a point, I confided in the Vice Principal (Academic) Deaconess Afolabi but she didn’t believe me because according to her I could speak and hear her. She decided to check my academic records but was surprised to realize how brilliant I was as a deaf person. From there, she showed interest in me and adopted me.

She later introduced me to her husband – Pastor Toye Afolabi. They supported me to further my education at Kwara State College of Education, Oro, in 1999, after the completion of my SSCE. I lived and grew up under their loving care for more than 15 years till I got married in 2011.

“When I got admissions into University of Ilorin (UNILORIN), they encouraged and supported me. I did not even know sign language then but I excelled at the College where I studied Agriculture. I did my IT at the Lagos State Agriculture Development Authority without the help of any interpreter. I have a good rapport with people.

Some people think I am pretending to be deaf whenever I tell them about it because of the way I relate with them. I didn’t attend any special school but I learnt the skill of sign language while teaching at Christian Mission School for the Deaf at Ibadan in 2003.

“I am physically, mentally, emotionally and morally sound, and very assertive. I love interacting with people but I don’t like to be taken for granted. Intellectually, I like reading and researching. I also love playing football. Mind you, I am still playing football even now as a nursing mother.

My friend used to call me Tomboy in those days because I like doing what boys do. I love tasks that challenge my intellect. My husband and I have similar condition.

He is deaf but he can speak English fluently. We are both qualified graduates from University of Ilorin. He is, at present, working with Ogun State Teachers Service Commission.

“I scored a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 4.45. That was the score I saw on the result sheet in the first semester of my final year. After the completion of my study I graduated with a second class honour (Upper Division).

“On the efforts made so far to get a good job, I had wanted to work with the University of Ilorin. There is a lecturer at the Faculty of Education, I was so fond of her even till today.

Leaving her was, indeed, a difficult challenge for me. The affection I have for her made my desire to work in the university stronger and that was what motivated me to do my NYSC in the institution. The lecturer is now a professor. I was then lucky to serve at the newly established Centre for Peace and Strategic Studies (CPSS) headed by her (Prof. Olasehinde Williams). Before the completion of my NYSC, I wrote a letter requesting to be retained but got no response then.

“After the completion of my one mandatory youth service, I continued to apply for job whenever the university released vacancies. I think I have done so thrice. The former Vice Chancellor, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, was making attempt to employ me based on my application which was submitted to him in 2012/2013.

I later learnt that he was about to do that before his tenure expired. I wrote a letter explaining the situation to the new Vice Chancellor (Prof. Ambali) in 2013 and, in fact, re-applied last year but the vacancy was put on hold.

“Another opportunity came when ex-President Goodluck Jonathan gave disabled people employment opportunity in 2013. I joined others to apply and traveled with my husband to Abuja for the interview in November. My daughter was just seven months old when I embarked on the journey with her.
