effects8000:
i was tell one of my lebanese friend yesterday that very soon we nigerians would kick the out of our country and we go name a bag after them (like ghana must go)

I agree with you effect8000 and it wont be a bad idea just like it would be good to kick naija boys out of every country and naming a bag after them (like 419 must go)

Hi all,

Was wondering has anyone used NIPOST recently to send or recieve packages eg Laptop, CD Walkman, Stuff like...? Are they reliable and fast, especially the EMS SpeedPost part of them?

Dont worry

Hot-angel, abeg leave medube alone. He says he is white, which one is your own now

Tayotina I fear o!!!!

I wont agree with you on that kazey because the yellow race is termed the mongol race and the are those people from the far east. Lebanese are grouped under Caucasians. Nevertheless, it doesnt change who I am

Sorry to ask hot-angel, but what color skin would you term Lebanese...? All I know is that in Naija, I am termed Oyibo, until I tell the person that it is only by color

hot-angel, my country of origin is Lebanon...

Don't worry Seun I dont mind. If na yabbist, I dey kamkpe

I dont think it really matters whether a person is Black or White afterall under both skins you have red blood What i think would matter as in any mixed marriage even between the same race is cultural background and which I think can be understood between both parties. Afterall if a Nigerian gets married to a Togolese you will still have some cultural differences and both are of the same race.

I will tell you because I know as I am a white guy born and bred in Nigeria 31 years ago. Have lived here all my life and only been out of the country on visits to the Uk, france and my homeland 2wice on visits. I take Nigeria as my country and Im even married to a Nigerian (black) girl who i dated for 10yrs and now we have a beautiful 10 1/2 month old baby girl called FAYOLA.

So you see, I dont really care...

Hot-angel after readin thru how much low self-confidence you had in your beauty, I wonder, do you have a good mirror in the house Girl you are fine and fine and fine and fine and.... And like someone rightly pointed out, maintain your beauty. Nice hairstyle btw in the first pic

As for laide o unforunately I have to join the others in saying the shirt pushed viewers away down Man U. Buggers even sold out the club to an AMERICAN All those hailing gunners, its a pity Man U ran out of luck this FA Cup final and lost ot penalties, unless we all saw that without Monsieur Thiery Henry, Arsenal were dead in attack Anyways Jose Mourinho and his Blues will always be number 1 If u want I can mail you their shirt

I think this is one of the reasons why most of these Pastors or Preachers make it successfully. Like kodewrita indicated;

kodewrita:
I don't see why you need to have a favourite pastor since the word of God is what matters.

In my opinion, most of these churches are using the present state of hardship in the economy to capitalise on the innocent Nigerian minds. Afterall, have any of you observed that these pastors that do the preaching use Land Cruisers, Mercedes Benz and other big cars while most in the congregation that makes this possible walk to the road to board buses, taxis and okadas after the days prayers.

Anyways, thats my personal opinion. I am of the Catholic faith and I speak as someone who believes that we must worship God and not the man who stands infront of us to preach. I like to criticize hypocrisy and pretense when I see it even if it is in the Catholic faith.

I believe Allah is simply the Arabic word (language most commonly used by Moslems) for God.

Once again Nigeria falls to the Argentinians due to bad refereeing and officiating. Does anyone seem to think otherwise...?

I mean firstly we were not awarded our 2 penalties with very clear pushes as indicated in the replays. Most times if the Flying Eagles merely kicked the ball it was a regarded as a foul, so i think they eventually gave up.

In my opinion, the boys tried and I hope they keep them and groom them for future places in the Super Eagles.

Learning Maths

A young boy is doing poorly in math at public school. His mother decides to send him to private school to rectify the situation. Lo and behold, after a semester in the new private Catholic school, the boy's grades were straight A's, even in math!

Surprised, his mother asked him how he liked his new school. "Oh, it's all right, I guess," he replies. "They must be teaching you some new tricks!" "Not really." "Then what do you think is making the difference in your grades?" "Well", he says, "as soon as I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew they meant business!"

A blonde walks into a doctor's office. She gets in the room with the doctor and says, "Doc, I hurt all over." The doctor is really confused. He says, "What do you mean, you hurt all over?" The blonde says, "I'll show you."

She then touches herself on her leg. "OW!!! I hurt there." Then she touches her earlobe. "OW!!!!!! I hurt there too!" Then she touches her hair. "OW!!!!! EVEN MY HAIR HURTS!" So the doctor sits back and thinks on it for 5 min. Then he says, "Tell me, is blonde your natural hair color?" The blonde says "Yes, why?"

The doctor says, "Well, you got a broken finger..."

A businessman enters a tavern, sits down at the bar, and orders a double martini on the rocks. After he finishes the drink, he peeks inside his shirt pocket, then orders the bartender to prepare another double martini. After he finishes that it, he again peeks inside his shirt pocket and orders the bartender to bring another double martini. The bartender says, "Look, buddy, I'll bring ya' martinis all night long - but you gotta tell me why you look inside your shirt pocket before you order a refill." The customer replies, "I'm peeking at a photo of my wife. When she starts to look good, I know it's time to go home."

I totally support the idea of a new room. Afterall a lot of us have stuff that we intend to upgrade or change or get rid off that may come in handy to others.

Hurray!!!

UP NIGERIA!

Hung Chow calls work and says, "Hey, boss I no
come work today, I really sick. I got headache,
stomach ache and my legs hurt, I no come work."

The boss says, "You know Hung Chow, I really need
you today. When I feel like that I go to my wife and
tell her give me sex. That makes everything better
and I go work. You try that."

Two hours later Hung Chow calls again. "Boss, I do
what you say and I feel great. I be at
work soon. You got nice house!!!"

Hi All,

Looking for my old friend, SOPE MAURICE, who was in primary school with me in Lagos many years back. If anyone has any info on him please message me as I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

If I may ask, does it mean we can never have any leader in Naija without having to always recycle one of our old?

I tend to agree with jogego, we are forever living in pretence in this Naija. We basically cannot boast of the basic amenities of life let alone talk of most technological advancements in other poorer countires, yet we ask South Africa to 'go siddon.' If indeed we have straight forward rulers and ever ready citizens who are live for the words of JF Kennedy that says 'Ask what you can do for your country and not what your country can do for you' Nigeria would have been a far better country.

You can get the Razr (Black) in Lagos now for N50,500.00.

If I may share some light on this being a member of one of the leading ISPs in Sout-South Nigeria, the cost of BW from Nitel, though cheap when talking large scale cannot be used for an ISP just starting up business. Usually when an ISP starts up transmission, they go for the cheapest available BW until their customer base increases, then they gradually expand. But when one gets to the limit where large BW eg 1mbit/1mbit is required then I totally agree price is cheap.

Considering, I have used and tested the fiber-optic connection on a visit in Lagos, I will relay the exact words I heard from the person demonstarting to me "When you see this connection, you will throw away your VSAT." And that is really true as it reduces latency and delay of VSAT by a big margin. For example, when put into comparison, a usual ping to www.google.com via VSAT during peak is roughly between 620ms - 750ms while on the Nitel connection it is between 80ms - 120ms.

Hi Y'all,

Im new to this forum and hoping on exchanging some useful opinions with some of my fellow Naija guys and gals.

Anyways, I seem to be having a problem with Glo wap. Firstly I was using an IMate PDA2k and was having problems accessing Glo Wap/GPRS. I bought a Nokia 9500 yesterday and after sending the activation SMS to Glo, I got a reply within the next few minutes containing setting. After saving, I decided to try it out. Unfortunately, for some reason when I try to access the service, I eventually end up with the following error message "GPRS: Subscribe to GPRS first"

Does anyone know what this means? Is there any special subscription required for this service? Any info or suggestions will be highly welcomed and appreciated.

Regards
