aze:But when Book Haram seizes the tank, it won't be dead or it resurrects and you will shouting superior weapons. Call the runaway general a coward. |
shymexx:Did you read the part of the article that says,[/quote]According to the source, when the Boko Haram insurgents came in full force to attack Bama,some top brass of the unit offered no resistance by running into the bush. The source disclosed that the insurgents entered the Brigade Headquarters and Armoury freely and carted away vehicles and Tanks.[/quote]Shut up and stop running around the thread shy(messing)tting rawbish. You are the illiterate here. Your Yoruba uncle just abandoned his brigade and ran into the bush and instead of burying you're head in shame, you are here insulting everybody. Where is your shame? So our amoury was looted because your Yoruba uncle (Brigadier General Coward) abandoned his brigade and ran into the bush on sighting civilians fighting as militants aka Book Haram. Cowardice they say, runs in blood - from uncle to nephew Shy(mess)te. |
Newkidoo:Pity your pathetic poor self, dude |
Newkidoo:Don't you think you are the foolish one here? Those guys go ahead to make those movies because they have a market for it. Nobody continues to invest in a business that doesn't pay him. Get that into your head? The best is to do yours the way you deem right and stop criticising those that find their own way right. The industry is too large to contain both of you. |
Newkidoo: There are some souls in nigeria that dont just like anything improvement.. All they think abt is money... If only those people could be found and remove partially from d face of d earth (hidden somwhere for years).. This now rest on the youths and the children.. Most especially the youths.. Let's follow our passion and not following money... Look at kunle afolayan as an example.. This guy is really trying and i pray his hardwork pays at d long run where we see great directors springing up to give us great films... We have creative directors but d situation of d industry has made them to join d bandwagon.. If only they could change and stand out.. Let nollywood be great.. It starts with me, it starts with you.. I c myself making some changes to nollywood IJN... I just believe soWhat if my passion is money? You go dey follow passion, dey form too much sense while the people wey you dey criticise don creatively look into Nigerian market come confirm say na those kind movies dey move market, because say Nigeria na mostly illiterates and semi-illiterates fool am. Those peeps you prescribe to be removed are talented hustlers, whose nose are always right on the jar. They are making their money, while you area here hating |

Gbam Gbammer Gbammest datribune: I disagree. I'd rather say dis ebola issue has shown dat d importance of our govt doctors is overrated & overhyped. They chose to be on strike even at d peak of d epidemic & without dem Nigeria is overcoming d epidemic. We had 12 known cases & now we hav 2. d Doctor dat treated Sawyer was not a govt employee. He was at his private clinic doing his daily job, trying to make a living, unfortunately d doctor died. May his gentle soul R.I.P. Many soldiers ar dying gruesome deaths in sambisa forest & so ar many policemen dying in d hands of armed robbers & they don't hold d nation to ransom. All professions hav their hazards. Nigerian doctors hav an overblown sense of their importance. |
APContherun: Like Chukwu Sanusi Lamido was relieved of his duties at the CBN for corruption.That guy is not making any sense |
Since doctors are this corrupt, they should neither be made CMDs nor ministers of health. After all, they are not the only people in the health sector.Dora Akunyili was over qualified to be made minister of health, but the corrupt doctors made sure it was given to another thief - Adenike Grange. Continue and may be a good thing will come out of this. ![]() |
ciceroo: so sacking the doctors is the way forward right,don't just jump into issues and spit trash please ciceroo: so sacking the doctors is the way forward right,don't just jump into issues and spit trash pleaseAre you not more retardd than the person I quoted? Why do you foools think you can use your own tools while your employers can't use theirs? In the face of Ebola outbreak you could not call off the strike, but you blame the President for sacking them, citing the same Ebola outbreak as a reason. Hipocrytes! And come to think that he was abusing the President with unprintable names for exercising his own rights, yet you foools could only see my reply. |

phantom: jonathan is an i.mbecile. i ve just confirmed it. dude is r.etarded honestly!!You ate fulishly fullish. The only President to sack striking doctors, who refused up call off strike at a time of medical emergency. Doctors should burn to ashes. You are the I'm.becile here and more retardd than retard itself |
Shaking my head for some ignorant posts here. There is no Ebola in Enugu. The woman is just on observation facility for having primary contact with the evil sawyer. It is not said anywhere that she has tested positive to it. Besides, it is only when the person has tested positive and is already down with it that he can infect others. Even if TNG woman later tests positive, she might likely not have given it to anybody. |
Faun: Bumping this masterpiece ![]() |
ILIDEFI: Doctors can't leave attending to patients and start researching viruses and drugs, wen these guys are there. Who will consult in d absence of doctors? These jobs should be done by scientists in research institutes and pharmacists in industries. Not that doctors can't do it, but it's simply not doctors' job.Not that doctors can't do it but it's simply not doctors' job? So doctors are now trained in pharmaceutics? In the minds of some of you, only doctors are intelligent. I am not in health profession, but I hate arrogance and grandstanding. For your information, many of us refused I study medicine just to avoid being limited, if you understand what I mean. It is not a haven for the extremely intelligent |
I don't support jungle justice, neither do I support barbarism. However, it is cowardice to say, 'don't start what you cannot finish' and can only be said by a coward. Why did the Fulani's start it? Is it because they can finish it? Those 'innocent Fulani's' that were killed, never did anything to stop their brothers that started the killing, neither did they do anything to bring them to justice, so they are accomplices. We are trapped in a stagnant one Nigeria because we cowardly don't want to start what we cannot finish. Howr can one part of the country be unleashing terror on everybody anywhere and anytime, at will? And some people think that doing tribalism in Nairaland is the best way to curb this? Fulani doesn't know tribe, whether Hausa, Igbo or Yoruba, so the earlier we discuss qualitatively on how to cordon them, the better for all of us, who are endangered species when we live with them. To the Abakaliki community, please be ready for a reprisal attack. They come in the night and they are not just Fulani, but hired Arab mercenaries. You need strong vigilante system that will be intelligent gathering pros with enough fortification. You also have to make it a duty to chase out all the Fulani Judaists you find any where around your community, even after government has intervened. Make sure, also that you form a network with other communities around and advise them to rid theirs too of any Fulani. By so doing, they will be contained. |
GreatPeople: Truth be told, most cheap things ain't good and most good things ain't cheap. From time immemorial till thy kingdom come, like hunger for food and water, man's desire to marry a beautiful intelligent wife will always be. Even now, modern guy sees his wife as a won trophy (Haven chased her with other contestants for a reasonable period, won her Love, paid her bride price and married her, he shows off his beautiful wife). Bottom line: Playing hard to get reasonably long enough always pays off, especially for beautiful intelligent girls. The harder he tried before he got you, the more he'll value you.It is a lie. I have ample evidence to disprove your assertion. Naturally, I am attracted to brain and not beauty. There is a lady I met in my first year and she played hard to get till I was in my third year. All the while, I thought she was a virgin until she followed me home one night. I was so disappointed and I didn't hide it. Then came excuses of toilet infection and all the other nonsense. Bottom line is that after three years, I discovered that it was poo that had been giving me tough time and the result was heart break. Till date she had not forgiven me. My wife is an angel and a piece of brain. Nothing was hidden from the first day. We dated for eight years. Before we met, I had seven girl friends that I was bleeping and managing very well and was even willing to join more, but all had to stop after her. She met all those girls and in each case I would explain to her. During my NYSC, I met another piece of brain who did not hesitate to open up her feelings. I did not want to hurt my wife, so I dodged her even with very impressive credentials. she is a good girl too, with a first class brain, but I already had a commitment somewhere and didn't want to default. If I wanted I would bleep her the first day, because she was all over me. Guess what? I had sex with my wife on our first date. And.....? Neither my wife who is concluding her PhD in Pharmaceutical Microbiology nor the other girl who just got wedded in Canada and studied on scholarship (also best graduating in her uni, best in Jamb, etc) is of compromised quality. |
pickabeau1: Very good points... good to see a debate rooted in fact rather than factI am well aware that you didn't write the article and that made me to refer to you as OP, while the owner of the article was referred to as the writer. Sure, you don't need to be female to understand female issues, but in a presentation like this, it is necessary to put everything into perspective. I accused you of deliberately ignoring the fact, and in fact facilitated a wrong notion that the writer is a female, and I stand by it. You replied thus, " 4. Also she raised the practical example of living in a highly feminized society and the fact that marital issues still occur" to Cococandy, which I consider a deliberate mischief to misguide opinions. Cococandy also fell for it, referred to him as 'she', when she replied, "if I didn't read it,how else did I know what she said?" and the flow continued from there. Those that can reason know the psychological implication of this. I did not expect you to answer for the writer, though you can defend him as the poster, if you think my observation is defensible. So, when I observed that it is intellectually fraudulent to deliberately try to confuse the audience, by implying that Adichie expected to be assisted by men in an elevator, when there is no premises upon which it is based. So, if what you mean by "Is she entitiled to get people to perform chivalric acts" is her complain about the unfriendliness of the Swedish, i guess you can see where i stand. However, I already stated my stand on feminism and would be disappointed in her if she is a feminist and still expect men to help her because she is a woman. Anybody could expect to be helped when in need, regardless of gender, opinions and inclinations, but expecting that simply because you are a woman, when you advocate equality is simply crazy. Finally, I would appreciate if you can cite a reference on the attack she made on Achebe. If your accusation is right and she atries to appeal to the west, it is her life and her responsibility to do whatever she likes with it. Moreover, she is made by the west and grossly disparaged at home, so where do you think her allegiance will be. This in no way means that I agree to that assertion. She is being herself and sharing her own opinion on various issues, just like every other person who has such an opportunity to have an audience. I strongly believe that she should be allowed to flow with her opinions, while those with contrary opinions should try and sell theirs without attacking her. I honestly believe that those that try to sell their opinion by attacking Adichie's opinion are seeking cheap publicity, by trying to ride on her popularity. I find it a lazy thing to do. One should be able to build a reputation before seeking popularity. Those that do otherwise, or try to attack popular people in other to gain popularity do not go far. |
pickabeau1: cococandy.. any thoughtsA few observed points, though. 1. The op is a tactful hater of Adichie and intelligently gave the impression that the writer is a woman, so as to make the article more acceptable. This was not detected early enough, and he was able to run away with it and its attendant effect on the whole discourse. Oluchukwu Aloysius-Gonzaga Nwikwu is male and google (https://www.facebook.com/oluchukwualoysiusgonzaganwikwu) would have solved this, but the op chose to ride on people's ignorance to achieve a hate goal 2. The writer is a hater, otherwise remarks like "Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s ‘feminist’ views, as well as towards her [b]tasteless style of performance", especially the bolded wouldn't have been necessary. There are lots of such remarks, like "Unquestionably, Adichie has been everywhere with her opinions in recent years—ill-conceived as they are doomed to be—plus ever-willing to present them in manners that confirm a thorough lack of tact and class" and "Yes indeed, it’s OK to have strong opinions, but nothing confirms Adichie’s lack of a full integration into her American society—despite having spent many years there—than her consistently unashamed display of words betraying a lack of class.", which depicts a loser, who tries every inch to find a mate in pulling others to his un-existent world. His definition and understanding of class is sour and ill-driven. 3. He is petty, and that is why he made such a statement, "And so I’ll go ahead to remark that according to my Igbo culture, when a woman goes about town or country acting out of control and spewing sheer arrogance as has been the case with Adichie the writer, sensible adults tend to point fingers of blame at one ultimate culprit—a vacuum—and it specifically has to do with the absence of a real man in the woman’s life, either as a strong father figure, or as a strong and influential brother or partner. One could say ‘husband’ instead of ‘partner’ if they will. (And I add that this fourth is also the final vacuum.)". For Christ's sake, anybody that is trying, without bias to counter somebody's argument wouldn't go this far in attacking her person. This is petty and lacks the'class' that the writer touted, a handful times in this article. 4. The writer is an intellectual fraud. He tried to make the audience (and Nairaland audience actually fell for it) feel that Adichie was referring to the men, when he quoted Adichie to have in this; "Her reason was that as she struggled with multiple bags in a hotel elevator, citizens stood by and watched who could have helped or simply offered to assist her. Such a thing wouldn’t have happened in her beloved Nigeria, she said". His background information on this quote did not indicate in any way that Adichie was referring to men not helping him. Adichie could well be referring to the unfriendliness of the swedish. It doesn't matter whether it is a man or a woman. Anybody who is suffering under some luggage up a staircase, would expect the people, standing by to offer a hand of help, whether they are men or women, and when that doesn't come, the natural thing is think that such people are unfriendly. Why would the writer try to, dishonestly make us believe that Adichie was referring to male citizens, watching her struggling with her bags up an elevator? Personally, i don't subscribe to feminism in any form and do not see any need to advance such radicalism, but if the speech you are referring to is the one here, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg3umXU_qWc, then you obviously and consciously misrepresented the lady, who in most of your submissions, you never liked a bit. In that speech, I could discern that Adichie is just like William Wilberforce, who once said, "If to be feelingly alive to the sufferings of my fellow-creatures is to be a fanatic, I am one of the most incurable fanatics ever been in existence at large". She described how she came to be known as a feminist and how she has modified it to be an African Happy Feminist, which means that she understands the implication and the perception accompanying feminists and wouldn't wish to be one. However, I understand that she has a very strong feeling, which when she wants to communicate would be understood as being feminism and has no choice but to sweat under that cloak, even when it is not her intention. Finally, Adichie is a diamond that has no hiding place. I understand that she is always sought out to come and deliver lectures and speeches, not because she so much craves for it, but because people always desire to hear from the people they feel have proved to be exceptional. She has a strong feeling and an opinion that she lets out, whenever she is sought out to speak and as it is said, she is entitled to it. Much as she is an influence, it behoves on all her critics to try and be like her (a star), so that when they are selected among the crowd to speak, they would equally share their own opinions. May be, people would buy theirs, and drop that of Adichie. Anything outside this will be the kind of ranting by Ebeneezer Williams, when Nnamdi Azikiwe was soliciting for fund to build the great University of Nigeria Nsukka. He mocked the idea of BSc Nsukka, etc, but today history has placed Ebeneezer Williams and Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe where they belong. While the former remained, till date a nobody, the latter is revered as Zik of Africa. |

Tolexander: major victory since august 2013, yet our soldiers are dying daily, citizens are kidnapped and bombed, buildings and cars are destroyed.Why are you always abusing him? Why call him a fool? Why not just make your point? Does name calling and all these abuse give you any edge? No! He had been ignoring your abuses and taking you head on with valid points. Why not try to invalidate his points instead. We are reading and we are drawing out inferences. Take note |
