Not surprised though because of these 2 reasons
1)they are very small with regards to population
2)they should be the richest country in Africa with regards to GDP per capital income(the norways and Switzerland of africa)

I say some babes are stranger to themselves...totally confused,disillusioned and lost.

u Can say dat again

During my Undergraduate days @unizik,my opposite door neighbour used to have a boyfriend. The guy was crazy...always beating the hell outta this gal.
One day I had enough of it and interfered. I took her to my room and advised her on why she shouldn't be rolling with that guy. I thought I was advising a human being.
Three days later the guy came again and walked straight to my door. He was like “bros u dey Bleep up ooo...why u go tell uju to leave me that am not good for her...u don cast be dat oooo".
I was dumbfounded and from that day I decided to start minding my business. A week later the guy came and they got into a fight again. She was crying and shouting for help. I made sure nobody came as close as knocking on her door. Some minutes later the crying and shouting turned into moaning. You can imagine sex after a fight.
Some girls shaa

Chelsea’s Mikel Obi scores 2nd ever goal in UEFA Champions League against PSG, watch here…

Super Eagles midfielder John Mikel Obi scored his second ever UEFA Champions League goal on his 58th appearance for Chelsea in the competition during their ‘Round of 16’ clash with PSG at the Parc des Princes in Paris.


The midfielder, who netted his first UCL goal during Chelsea’s 3-1 defeat of Sporting Lisbon in October 2014 at the Stamford Bridge, only have to play a couple of games to become the Nigerian player with highest appearance in the European competition, as former Arsenal FC player, Nwankwo Kanu leads with 60.

Spreading my mat on the floor

Sometime last year,my friend and I were driving to Enugu from awka. We were stopped around 9th mile corner(as it is with Nigeria police when they see two or three young guys in a car). One of them told the officer that stopped us to search us and make sure he finds something even if it's a rizler(a white paper used for wrapping marijuana).His reason was that we might be suspected criminals or even kidnappers(reason being that my friend was driving a Nissan Armada). The officer(inspector I guess) did as he was told but the found nothing on us and in the car. He reported back to his superior officer and his superior came to search us and the car by himself. While searching us he saw our different IDs and he was like...“who una papa be and wetin una dey do?”..it was amusing because he saw our age and he believed we were too young to be driving a V8 jeep except we are criminals or kidnappers(stupid naija mentality)...we showed him our complimentary cards and suddenly his mean face changed to a smiley face.
He was like “make una find us something naa”...I now took it personal with him and told him that there is no way I will give him something considering the level of embarrassment he gave us(i forgot to add that when he was searching he opened a sealed parcel which was a gift meant for someone)..
After telling him my churchmind,he started shouting,telling us to drive off or he will do something stupid...as we were about driving off he called us BLOODY CIVILIANS...couldn't help but laugh because he doesn't know he is a civilian too.

I still don't want to believe Akwa United signed that white dude. well let's see if he'd cope with Nigerian football.

Oga that so called white dude has been involved in Nigeria league for a long time.
I think he is the most experienced of all the coaches listed over there as far as Nigeria League is concerned

@OP how do u keep body and soul together and not cheat on him?

Stexy:
when you talk about navy seals, you talk about fire power, stealth and so many other qualities needed to get the job done. So yeah they can take on 50 and come out ontop

this is what we call overhyping

tenderlyme:
OP gud topic u hv here so dat means frm d 1st day of my menses i count it to 10days i am safe to do skelewu abi?&then frm dat same day 10 to day am highly dangerous to catch any goal abi?

the first day of ur menses is DAY1..i don't know how many days ur menses last but I think ur menses should be dry and gone by day 5 or 6...so if ur calendar is a 28 day cycle...from day 1 to 10 dere is a high percentage of u not getting preggy wen u have an unprotected sex...if u have an unprotected sex from DAY 12 to DAY 16 there is a HIGH possibility of you getting pregnant(cos the X chromosome can last up to 48hours..if u have unprotected sex on DAY 14 which is the peak period of ovulation,there is no way u won't get preggy unless ur partner is either impotent or infertile or you took a pill)
Then from DAY 17\18 down to the next cycle(DAY1 of the next cycle),there is no way u can get preggy even if ur partner releases a gallon of sperm into ur kitten.

Is he the only man of God that has been prophesying about 2016why take his prophecy personal

reminiscing:
I have really suffered o.A guy who happens to b a manager of a printing press that offered to assist me with my hostel Accommodation payment stopped picking my calls last week because I have refused to sleep with him.He said he loved me and all he is making for is for me to allow him sleep with him and he will give me the money he promised.I was surprised wen he promised to help with the payment because I met him last month and now imagine the Option he gave.I feel really disappointed....I wonder where our generation is headed for...

why would u rely on him to pay ur hostel accommodation fee....doNt u have parents or guardian(s)?

NobleAngell:
Too many words from a reverend father. I think religious leaders should stay away from politics or atlist remain neutral.

By being neutral,do u mean collecting money from a politician to pray for them or having as much as 4 private jets?

Attention,communication,affection and protection....in that order

She was like “Mentor!!!!there is no love u would give me that my father have not given me”.
I was dumbfounded

Smoke2015:
Nigerians, just like when Bill Clinton told the Americans during one of his election campaigns that it was the economy, I am also now telling Nigerians that it is a class war period.

Our sufferings and frustrations are not because we belong to any section of the country or because we are Igbos as the hapless Nnamdi Kanu and his ilk would have us believe it is simply because we remain the grass under the feet of a collection of elephants in a continous struggle for power both political and economic.

Our low level of education and enlightenment continue to put us in positions of servitude to be used and misused by the elites whose membership cut across ethnic lines and are kept together by their collective greed.
The Marxists pushed this position in the 70s and we refused to see it. I have been mulling these thoughts and have decided to expand on it as I now have incontrovertible evidence that our oppressors do not take their decisions based on the integrity or otherwise of the people they claim to represent but are driven by the urge for the primitive and continuos accumulation of power and wealth.

My people, I watched this documentary on Nigeria and it was very clear that the civil war, several coups and economic bastardization that we have faced since we gained independence have been direct consequences of this struggle. Let me illustrate, I have always wondered why Fela the Late genius hated with a passion the Military especially Obasanjo and Yar'dua. The link is very clear, his mother was part of the independence push in the 50s. She attended most of the talks both in UK and in Nigeria. She fought gallantly and even dethroned a sitting Oba in the wake of her powerful incursions into politics. But immediately we gained independence she went into obscurity, cheated out of the fruits of her struggle culminating in her final humiliation by the OBJ junta. This was Felas grouse, how can his mother be so treated by these 'vagabonds' after all she had done for this country.

So what did he do, he fell back on the masses, taking advantage of their illiteracy and a need for release as a result of their massive poverty and suffering to rail against another section of the elitist club with which he was a major member by reason of his bourgeois birth. He wore the pants, smoked the weed all in his bid to show that he belonged to the masses. He succeeded to an extent but in death, his people came for him and took him away from the masses. They rewarded his family with political appointments, immortalization of his family name and all sort. Even today the Lagos state Government has given up although on lease as I hear a major part of our national historical monument - the Lagos Prison for his family to manage and maintain through his eldest daughter who is in a relationship with a talented Architect.

People, please open your eyes to the games of our masters. Another illustration is that of MKO Abiola, the purported winner of the June 12 Elections. He always regaled us with stories of his poverty, his poor upbringing and all. He did all these to curry the support of the masses in his fight against his colleagues as he struggled for power. He was not poor even in his youth, he was educated by Felas father in a school meant for elites and their children. Obasanjo attended the same school, (hope you are seeing the link) sent abroad to study and came back to join the Lagos University Teaching hospital from where he moved to some multi national and still as a very young man bought his first company. As a bonafide member of the elitist club, his colleagues in the military gave him all sorts of contracts making him one of the richest Nigerians of all time. During this time, he made very shallow contributions to the welfare of the masses. Making gratitious donations which were in no way compared to the massive wealth he had amassed through his prostituting with the military membership of the elitist club. All these was to hoodwink us and make us believe that he was a trusted ally.

But all his charade was blown open when he was bluntly told by his colleagues that the Presidency was not 'for sale'. However in his stubbornness he continued, relying on the bridge he had built between himself and the people to deliver the Presidency. This failed him for he underestimated the power of his cabal of wolves, his ambitions were frustrated by the military junta and he jumped to the masses for help like they always do, but we had been thoroughly weakened by his activities and that of his cohorts in the elitist movement and he invariably lost his life.

The linkages are very strong. The same people and their children have been ruling us both politically and economically. They only jump at ethnic and tribal colorations when they loose out in their intra class struggle. Falling back on the poor people to fight for them, claiming to have been cheated because they belong to a certain tribe but conveniently forgetting to state clearly that they were just poor strategist in a club the majority of us will never belong.

Let's look at Ojukwu the leader of the Biafran Secessionist movement. His father was at the time the richest Nigerian. Ojukwu lived a life of privilege and attended the best schools. His education gave him a little advantage over the other members who were firmly divided into three class subdivisions within the elitist movement- the political, economic and military. Ojukwu played in all the spheres and did not understand why he should be subjugated to Gowon who played in only one space and was not as educated. The progrom in the North and the continued massacre of the igbos gave him the firm vehicle and platform to carry out what to me and some scholars was a purely egoistic Crusade which led to the killing of over 2m Nigerians. After the war, what did we hear, 'no victor no vanquished', Ojukwu had run away with his famous Mercedes Benz to live a life of luxury in exile. This kind of camaraderie was a slap on the face of all those who had lost their lives, suffered untold suffering and saw their destinies thwarted but what would you expect after a fight between 'two brothers'?

The competition between the elites led to massive recruitments on all sides. The North carried out their Northernization policy, using the famed Barewa College as a bastion for recruitment into the civil service and the military school in Zaria for recruitment into the military. The west embarked on theirs too sending their scions out to the UK on scholarships mostly to study Law. That is why you hear of people like Fani Kayode being a third generation Cambridge educated lawyer. The Easterners also had theirs with what was then called the Argonauts, this was the Azikiwe led young Igbo Turks who were mostly educated and trained in the U.S steeped in the radicalism of the civil rights movements. Today you will see their children and descendants still holding forte.

People like Bola Tinubu, El Rufai, Buba Marwa, Dasuki, Femi Otedola, Aliko Dangote, Keem Bello Osagie, Udo Udoma are all direct descendants and beneficiaries of the bastion of elitist control.


How do these elitists perpetuate themselves in power? Its Simple. Education and in some cases marriage. They have identified very early the importance of education hence the continuos push for their children and chosen ones to get the very best in education and tutelage. They go to the very best schools in the world and get the kind of exposure that common people's children will never get. In the olden days it was through scholarships opened to party members children and wards, today its making sure recruitment into choice jobs was strictly based on the level and quality of education preferably overseas degrees. Tell me how will a Shomolu man's son no matter how brilliant compete?

They have also perfected the art of intra class marriage. They marry themselves ensuring continuity and spreading of bloodlines although firmly within the elitist circle. Any attempt to marry out of this class is rebuffed and frustrated until the usurper packs his bags and runs away.

Clear illustration, look at the Management of Forte Oil and the pedigree of its Chairman you will see what we are saying. From the Group Managing Director to the Chief Financial Officer are children with strong pedigree that can be traced back two generations. They also parade very strong educational qualifications and tremendous exposure. So how will someone who went to Makoko Comprehensive and graduated from our ASUU strike bedeviled institutions compete favorably with these people. So you see, it's a class war my people.


Otedola himself comes from a strong pedigree that could be traced to the Awoist free education and scholarship platforms of the old western region. His father being one of the wealthiest people in the land emerged as the first 'sleeping' Governor of Lagos State and eventually today Femi is one of the wealthiest black men in the world. He is also perpetuating the elitist lineage by sending his own kids to the very best schools in the world, recruiting only the very best that his money can afford from a very shallow pool of labour and effectively limiting the rest of us no matter where we come from Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo or Ibibio to the servitude that remains our fate.

Now that it's rosy, we are not hearing that he is enjoying all of these because he is a Yoruba man o. By the time, he experiences a small hiccup, maybe a little intra class struggle he would fall back on his people and scream for war that these Hausa people want to take his firm because he is Yoruba.

This is where Nnamdi Kanu is getting it all wrong. The igbos are not suffering because they are Igbos, they are suffering because of their position in the societal hierarchy which decides who stays where no matter where you come from. Why do you think the South Eastern Governors will never support his position? it's because it may cause an imbalance of power and a restriction to resources. The Igbo elites will always look at Nnamdi Kanu as an orphan and treat him as such.

People, we are all suffering. Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, Igbira, Ijaw. A poor man is a poor man. The same sickness in Onitsha is the same sickness in Kano. Have you seen the poverty in the North? Have you been to Makoko in Lagos? Have you been to the slums of Aba? We are fighting like fools because we do not know who the enemy is.

Biafra will not put food on the tables of the poor disenfranchised Igbo man, Biafra will not give him infrastructure, send his children to school or even give him a voice. The issue can never be Biafra, the issue is elitist suppression and full control of the levers of the economy emasculating the masses throughout Nigeria.

If you doubt me, let us allow Biafra go and you will immediately see the permutation replay itself with the rebirth of these same elitist people creating a new hierarchy and entrenching the same issues that led to the creation of Biafra. Another Ilustration, IBBs rash of new states did not solve the issues but indeed created a new set of minorities still suffering from lack. I was a minority in the old Cross River State and still remain. Minority in the new Akwa Ibom State with my grandfathers house still not joined to the National grid. So what are we talking about.

The solution is education. We must break the walls of illiteracy by liberalizing education. Let's enlighten everybody so that we all can at least see issues in its true form instead of its present coloration along ethnic and tribal lines.

It is a class war and the sooner we realize this the closer we will get to the Uluru.

Lalasticlala, Dominique, Seun

OP I thank God u re not as short sighted as most pple here who preach hate using tribalism...I keep telling people that our problem in this country is a general one...it has nothing to do with ibos,hausa or yoruba..am happy that our eyes are now opening.
Believe u me the next ministers,govs,senators and even commissioners of our generation are somewhere in the US,UK,Canada etc studying and furthering there education

I think it's kinda possible....just depends on the mindset...Let me share a story

During my early undergraduate days (100 to 200L)I had this girl as a friend. We were so close to the extent that people thought we were dating. I kept telling everybody that cares to know that we ain't dating and she did the same too. We did almost everything together(not that kinda thing ooo) like reading,going to classes etc. I was nice to her (just like courtesy demands). She was grateful having me as a friend,she calls me “a gentleman to a fault”.
As time goes on I figured out she was actually falling in love with me...I never knew she was comparing my humble self with her then boyfriend(NB:ladies please don't make this mistake of comparison. it does more harm than good). I had to withdraw,stopped some of the things we always do together,removed her digits from MTN family and friends(which means lesser call time)..i had to do what I had to do to avoid stories that touch. She felt bad and hurt.

Fastfoward towards my penultimate and last year in the university,i had this really nice girl as a friend. She helped me out with attendance(incase I miss class),gave me her notes to photocopy,bought handouts for me and all that..she was fun to be with bought I was very skeptical because of what I learnt from my experience in 100 and 200L..i had to force myself to be a gentleman when necessary(and not at all times),hardly call her,we only talk in school,turned down her request to come to her lodge uncountable times (also I hid from her the adress of where I was staying),whenever I figure out that we are getting too close,i would pick a fight with her,always called my female friends in her presence..she always said that I ain't a gentleman and I always laugh in my mind

So OP I think it depends on the following

1)personality
2)civilisation of the mindset

President Buhari said a lot during his campaign days, some were simply un achievable because of 'these forces'...(Physical, psychological socio-economic,spiritual)
The one that I wanna pick now is that he would make naira get even with the dollar.
From onset this is very very easy to achieve and very very difficult to achieve.
Easy how? Just remove two zeros and you are there(then get ready for inflation).
Difficult how? Capitalism frowns at deliberate manipulation of the currency and the value is influenced both by local and international factors.
Nigerians are wailing and killing themselves over the value of the naira vs the dollar cos ours is an import dependent economy. for the very minute few that export goods and services, they love the weakness of the naira and are smiling to/from the banks.
A STRONG CURRENCY WITH WEAK ECONOMY IS A CURSE, A STRONG CURRENCY AND A STRONG ECONOMY IS A BLESSING, A WEAK CURRENCY WITH STRONG ECONOMY IS A BLESSING, AND A WEAK CURRENCY AND A WEAK ECONOMY NA WINCH, NA IM WORSE PASS(Nigeria's own case)
In parts of the world where the people know what they are doing and export more than they import, they NEVER wish for their local currencies to gain soo much against the dollar, some even go the extent of manipulating it to remain low (e.g, Chinese yuan and Japanese yen) causing spats with the other 'big boys' in the process.
If I were the President, I wouldn't lose sleep over the current naira vs dollar beef, I would rather sweat it out trying to fix the economy, make it less oil dependent and turn it around, then put up policies that will encourage people to produce locally and diminish the need for excessive importation.
Also, in case you don't know, with the free fall in the price of oil going on unabated, the government is all but happy with the value of the naira vs the dollar. don't ask me how, just apply the above reasoning.


Cc lasticlala..seun..mynd

A gentleman to a fault

I don't think iran can do anything to us(directly shaa)...they are still under the watchful eyes of the west and NATO with a lot of sanctions..

End time dick

I think the govt should look into the issue of waste disposal...anambra to me is the most developed state in the east but at the same time one of the dirtiest state(after abia state).i go through some axis in the state and I begin to wonder what the commissioner for environment and the director of ASWAMA is doing.
Actually I think it gives a wrong impression especially to tourists or our people arriving from diaspora
