Good news! I want Mexico to win it. Why must it be always Brazil? Let @least one trophy be elusive to dem.. Go Amigos Mexico!

Inasmuch as i undastand d sentiments of ppl who stand wit d FG on dis matter, it does not remove d FACT dat a more sensitive &effective govt wuld hav taken out dis threat by now. Wat wuld GEJ &his cabinets do if BH were deadly a hit-and-run insurgents 4rm Niger, Chad, Mali etc? Now, dis threat is rite under dere noses &dis? I wish i was d one controllin thins rite dere now. Dis govt is close to inept. I stil weep readin d details of d brazen way dis beasts commited dere heinous crime in a church in Kogi in broad daylight d other way in a supposed lawful country. Mheen, we've lost count!

What a laugh @op! Cos if with all their little faults (mostly when they're pushed to d wall by women), if the femalefolks are @least half as simple &uncomplicated as men, den d world wuld be such a nicer place. Women ar foreva schemin, sly &exploitin their feminine wiles to take advantage of men &situations, &then turn around to blame it on d menfolk when it doesnt exactly go their way. What's d root of all evil, violence &crime? D love of money, huh? Ok, so what's mostly d root of d love of money? WOMEN! Do ur research, folks. D way d mind of a carnal woman works?? Hmmm... FEAR DEM! Check Samson, Joseph, David, Job...

I alwys find it amusin readin various comments on mostly political issues on dis forum proferring 'solutions' to our malaise, includin som ridiculously puerile defence of d man at d steerin wheel, GEJ, who has been a catastrophic disappointment to even his own kinsmen. B4 going into details &blamin any official, late prepation blah, blah, blah, let's do a summary. Wen a house is flooded, do u keep scoopin out water or u just turn off d tap? Pronto! NIGERIA IS SICK; until dis foundation is corrected & a complete new set of faces &MINDSET are d at d helms, well...

Wow, what an Olympics for Nigeria! What a spiralling disaster, across board! Why did we even go to London 2012 in d first place when d signs were all over d wall since d football qualifers last year when none of our teams (men &women) culdnt sail thru (what used to bee our forte oo). Nigeria shuld check d cosmics; sumthins are catastrophically wrong. Thumbs up to Okagbare &d other athletes; dey've done dere best in d circumstances. It's not dere fault. D nation is grimly sick cos of its leadeship &all these are only reflections!

Now, as a follow-up to my response above, try replacing 'heartbroken' with 'elated,' 'soothed' or 'ecstatic' (heartbreak = elation, soothing news, ecstasy) &u wil see it fits in perfectly. For example, when he heard d news, he was heartbroken (or it broke his heart). When he heard d news, he was elated. (u see? Complete opposite). Anoda example, Tola was heartbroken when Kemi left him for Dayo. Tola was ecstatic when Kemi shunned d Dayo for him. Gracia Amigos. Now, where's mua trophy?

@OP, most of d respondents were making a basic error of grammar by trying to compulsorily include 'heart' in dere answers. It needn't always be so. Now, it really depends on d context in which d word is used, cos 'heartbreak' can also be employed outside of romance/mushy emotions e.g failed bizness deals or sports failure. So, antonyms for 'heartbreak' include elated, soothed & ecstatic. Gracias

Educatn & 'civilsation' has blinded so many ladies 4rm working on what is most important/attractive to a responsible/eligible bachelors who want to settle down (pls, not b/f or guys wit ulterior motives oo): which is XTER, GODLINESS, PATIENCE &SELFLESNESS (these used to be d definition of feminity). U see all dese very pretty &educated ladies in d offices, streets &churche, but xter is painfully missing as dey're quick to ventilate &shout down on d next man over flimsy issues (cos he's not dere b/f). Most of dem don't even realize dere xter flaws &4get dat most men think alike in dere criteria for a marriagable lady (not bedmate oo). LADIES, PLS UNDERLINE: if d next responsible guy doesn't think u're marriageable, ur b/f wil likely think alike wen he finds out d same flaws &might soon grow cold feet. WORK ON UR XTERS! It's feminine &stop gender competition

God gave Jonathan a unique opportunity to set in a motion a new culture of merit, integrity, equity &justice in Nigeria &write his name in gold &in d hearts of generatns to come. Instead, he lost courage, surrounded himself wit d same wolves dat brought dis nation to its knees (or their offsprings or families) &continued d destructive culture of corruptn, stench &opprobrium. Jonathan has lost it &his reaction to things like this is an only indicatn of his political willpower. U can't successfully fight wat u don't genuinely hate &abhor. Leadership is a divine thing. GEJ didnt realize it (he probably ascribed it to 'goodluck' or his 'smartnness') &took it wit levity

The chairman of a private broadcast outfit was also implicated. Guess who. I know dis particular media mogul is nothing but a typical dye-in-the-wool Nigerian politiciian, wining &dining wit evry questionable xter in power. His media staff can hardly be described as professional &dere news &presentatn, wishy-washy. I only switch there wen I need to watch a live football broadcast.

Dis is unbelievably ridiculous. Jonathan has not just dissapointed men &d whole world wit his style, he has disappointed GOD dat elevated him in d first place. HE LOST COURAGE TO DO THE RIGHT THING D ORDINARY CITIZEN &GOD HAD EXPECTED. He blended in &has been swallowed up in d vortex of d repugnant status quo. Now, he is threading on dangerous grounds. Makes me remember Saul in d Bible: initially favoured by God but deserted after he derailed while God appointed David instead.

Even the way he likes to pose like a groaning or scowling statue for the cameras is a turn-off

See who's talking. Does Atiku even bother to gauge his popularity rating among Nigerians generally b4 plunging headlong on another futile presidential misadventure. I doubt he'll score more than 5%. Jonathan may hav performed abysmally, but Atiku is NEVER an alternative. Many people I'v interracted wit don't like him for TOO MANY reasons: DESPERATION, POLITICAL OPPORTUNISM, DISLOYALTY, MUD-SLINGING, UNTRUSTWORTHY, LACK OF PEDIGREE, FINANCIAL SCANDALS, UNMARKETABLE, QUESTIONABLE PAST &SOURCE OF INCOME; PLUS HE'S A DYE-IN-THE-WOOL NIGERIAN POLITICIAN OF THE OLD BREED WHO BLED THIS COUNTRY TO ITS PRESENT STUPOUR. Atiku, pls retire already!

Founding pastor of the Household of God Church, Rev. Chris Okotie, has reportedly announced his intention to get married again.

Reports have it that, during an interview on a gospel programme which is yet to be aired, the man of God who recently separated from his wife of nearly four years, revealed his plans to remarry some day.

He said he plans to marry again because it’s not good for a man to be alone, quoting God from the book of Genesis. He also said God’s plans upon his life must be established.

Pls everyone, whenvea a matter gets into d region of God & Holy Spirit, we shuld be careful &only comment (if u must) with deference, because sins against the Holy Ghost cannot be forgiven. If the story here is true, then it's similar to Biblical accout of Legion in Mark 5:1-19. There are some strong evil spirits (dey're all of different grades) dat wil require a higher anointing to confront. Even Jesus Christ said there are some mircacles dat cannot happen except u fast &pray. D 'Legion' in d lunatic (For those dat don't know, most lunatics are possessed &its d demon in dem dat make dem wander about to destroy dem) probably decided to ease demselves into d pastor to humiliate him &ridicule Christianity wen its in d news. But God's ways ar higher &He will shame d devil always.

For a moment there, I culdn't believe u were real until u spoke. Oh my, God is a master artist! Ur eyes weaken me. U easily disarm me wit d way u look @me

@maclatunji, yeah religion is no-go area for most ppl. @tgirl4real. Yeah, ur analyses were sure helpful. Tanx

Some say love is a feeling that you can't control & that you can't help whom you fall in love with (Hmm, really?). Others say love is a choice... a decision you make after thoroughly putting into consideration some vital points & your intended partner on a scale (But is that always so, esp when you heart is in a serious contest against your head). One thing I've found out, though, is that most people have certain criteria/fantasies &usually go along with someone that matches them at least 85%; then the feelings come along at some point, making it a perfect love story. But here's the dilemma: no matter how much 'golden' your new catch appears, everyone has at least ONE BIG 'NO-NO' dat makes love not just enough. For some, it's tribe. For others, it's family influences/preferences. For others, it's as silly as d profession or colour of skin. Or like someone once said, "Is love enough to make you marry someone who has no job? Is love enough to make you marry someone your whole family despises and opposes the union? Is love enough to make you marry someone from a different religion with different beliefs? Is love enough to make you marry someone you just found out to be your parent's murderer?" Ladies are mostly guilty/weaker when it comes to dis extra considerations, breaking their beau's heart at the 11th hour? SO MY QUESTION: WHEN IS LOVE NOT ENOUGH to go along with a relationship or get married to him/her? What is your big 'NO-NO' that you'll never compromise/negotiate in matters of the heart? When would you follow your head, rather than your heart? When does love become more of logic to you, rather than feelings? Long essay (I know), but wanted to be crystal clear. Your inputs very much appreciated. Thanks.

Churches where its all frenzy dancing 85% of d time & everyone goes home erroneously feeling 'righteous' b4 God cos of dat. Churches dat tell its youths its ok to drink, fornicate &do all watsap sins of today since dey can go next Sunday to confess to another mere mortal (who himself actually needs forgiveness from God for blasphemy). Then dey tell dem dats d church is d one established by God &every other church ar by men. d brainwashing baffles me till tomoorow. Wat a church of convenience leading straight to HELL! D worse thing is dat d youths dere dont feel any scrupples. talk about BLIND FOLLOWERSHIP. too bad. SMH

All these sickenly sentimental Siaisia fans wuld neva eva shut their trap, wuld dey? How can any objective-minded person compare Keshi's coordinated &tactical play wit Sia1 (as dey mushingly like 2call him), who plays U-20 style &was ridin on ppl's sentiments even tho inexperinced. If he was dat brilliant &his bloated ego can handle a senior national team, why hasnt even Lesotho hired him? Mind u, Keshi is a veteran in coachin, coached several senior teams &respected worldwide. Wats is Siasia's CV, aside age-grade competitns (where he uses ova-aged players sef). Tell me which top team he played wit. Wen he met one (Guinea), he crumbled (Fget dat Guiness stage-managed Argentina match in Abj; dey exposed it in d 2nd leg). FLUKE, FLUKE, FLUKE &Guinea severely exposed him.

All dis sickenly sentimental Siasia fans wuld neva eva shut their trap, wuld dey? How can any objective-minded person compare d coordinated, experienced &tactical play of Keshi wit Siasia (or 'Sia1 as dey mushily call him)? Siasia is too inexperincd compared 2Keshi &is only suited 4age grade futball (of course wit ova-aged players he uses). A certain Peter Utaka wuld hav bn runnin aimlessly round d field &d whole team playin borin like U-20!

Mod, i think d real questn is: WAT DO NIGERIAN SENATORS &REPS EVEN DO SEF? u see som commentators here sayin dey dont know dere legislators &dey dont care. Pls dont castigate dem cos dey're being sarcastic; &dat simply is d attitude of d average citizen, even d most intellectual &well-intentioned. Truth is, d singular problem of Nigeria is d govt &d prevailing culture of leadership, & d legislaors ar its worst examples (wit a couple of exemptions). Until dis failed generatn is gone &a new culture is in place, NOBODY REALY CARES. Somday, dere wil be a TRUTH COMMISSION

I'v neva really bn his fan & i think he's ovahyped by Chelsea faithfuls (He chronically avoids responsibilty. Haba! Even goalkeepers score goals). But ystday im try small sha. Stil, in d Super Eagles, i rate victor moses, joel obi &kalu uche ahead of him in d midfield. I think Keshi shuld take dat reverred No 10 shirt from Mikel &giv it to any of d beta midfielders stated. GBAM!

I will be dissapointed if Bayern wins dis by a slim mergin. Am expecting a comprehensive win, like an annihilation...something like 4-1. Cos dis match (or mismatch, if u like) is just like Nigeria vs Lesotho.

D best meal in d world is ogili aku wit nni ji (banga/egusi soup wit pounded yam). If u eat it, u wont be mentionin all dis 2nd rate meals (i'v tasted nearly all). God bless Anioma Delta, d origin of evrthn best in Nigeria

D best meal in d world is ofe ogili aku &nni ji (banga/egusi soup wit pounded yam). If u taste it, u'll all change opinions, cos i'v eaten all dis 2nd rate meals u're all mentioning here. God bless Anioma Delta, d origin of d best soups &evry best thin in Nigeria

Dis evening, Liverpool will prove Chelsea' s fluke 'win' on Saturday was a fraud. If Chelsea like, dey can win d UCL (dey can't, though) or Super Cup, wen dey meet Liverpool, dey'll always succumb in a free &fair game witout d linemen's assistance. Liverpool wil neva Chelsea get into d top 4, as punishment for dere sins on Saturday &negative football styles in d UCL. Fellow Kops, You'll Never Walk Alone

Is it true his predicament began after he jilted a lover who felt so bitter she went diabolical to take him down from grace to grass, just to get her pound of flesh?
