Romance / Re: Thank u all by mezainab(f): 12:36pm On Apr 15, 2008 |
life, very funny. They say to lie is a sin while the truth is bitter . What shall we do,then? To say God should take away the devil's power of manipulation and give it to who? Everyday, we keep making the same mistakes.I believe with babamutu,let's be rational. @ poster,from a woman's point of view ,i feel he should have forgiven you ,being a christain but from a man's point of view, a man from a real world (Nigeria),not movies, he'd want to give it another break mostly to establish his position as the man. Besides, he'd be wondering what would happen if he leaves you and travels on an official assignment or whatever for some wks. He'd ask if it means you can't keep yourself till he comes back. You told him your runs while u guys were apart and he told u his. You both swore never to give the devil another chance, then you lapsed.he'd feel betrayed. I feel for you but life must go on. If he's yours ,he's also not very happy where he is now but just be careful what you tell a man because he could do same and not tell u. he could also tell you and expect you to forgive him while he could hardly 4give because they know their runs as men. Haven't you ever wondered why a guy would rather die than give his friend his sister to marry? But, he would want to marry another person's sister. Such is the world we live in |

Literature / Re: Poetry Put Youths To Sleep.Why? by mezainab(f): 4:37pm On Aug 31, 2007 |
Poetry is like music to the soul. Sometimes it lifts one's spirit by touching some spots in our hearts that no one has ever reached ,explaining what we are experiencing at one point in our lives. Somehow,poetry helps us understand we're not the only ones going through a particular phase.Someone has been there before or has a clear imagery and understanding of what we're going through to be able to put in black and white. It could lift your spirit if its an Ode or ballad or it may depress you if its an elergy.Either way,its an interesting work of art not a trick of grammer. With a little bit of literary terms here and there,there's no way poetry can put you to sleep,rather it keeps u awake. Above all, poetry can only be understood,appreciated and written by "thinkers" and great minds. |

Business / Re: Bad Experiences You've Had With Your Banks? by mezainab(f): 1:37pm On Jul 09, 2007 |
My sad experience was with Intercontinental Bank. In short, they are the worst. I went to their branch at wetheral road, owerri to use their ATM last December. I told my younger brother who was waiting for me close by to move toward the gate and wait there. He became bored and wanted to play a game in his phone when a Mopol chanced the phone from him. I was surprised b/c the boy was at the gate and wasn’t making a call. When I demanded an explanation the Mopol said I should shut up or leave the banking premises. They dragged my brother by the shirt to the outside. This is the bank he, me and my cousin who was already inside and oblivious of what was going on outside the bank uses. To cut the story short, the 2nd Mopol told me to leave the premises when I asked for my brother’s phone. People said I should just comply for the sake of peace. I left but not hurriedly so he slapped/pushed my back and said,” move!” When I turned to face him he slapped my face. Geez, I felt like killing somebody but they held me. I laid my complaint to the pregnant manager who referred me to another guy with an avocado head. After keping me waiting for so long,i had to confront him.He finally didn’t treat my case saying I must have shouted at the Mopol so he slapped me. Earlier, say 10secs after he (1st Mopol) confiscated my brother’s phone, a man wearing a chieftaincy regalia made a call right in front of the bank door (not gate o) and the bullying wimp of a Mopol could only muster in a low tone, “eh chief, you know we don’t make calls in the bank. They write am there now.” He said pointing at the inscription on the wall before the door. The chief waved at him and continued his talk. While an innocent boy’s phone lay in the Mopol’s pocket. Tell me, why I should see anything good in Intercontinental Bank? They really spoilt my christmas in the east. |

@donzman when my dad married my mum, he was just a young engineer with Peugeot cars in the coal city. (where he met my mum)Both grew there. He told my mum that he didn't own a car except the official one of once in a while.He was just a young barchelor living in a room apartment.My mum married him nontheless and we're happy as a family today.

As a child of an inter-ethnic marriage, I can say in all honesty, that I have never experienced any kind of discrimination, for being a product of an inter-ethnic relationship. I don't know of any part of Nigeria where a child would be denied of his rights and priviledges, simply because his mother comes from another ethnic group. A collegue of mine once said: "Among my father's people, am a son of the soil but among my mother's kindred, am an honoured guest." For me, it has always been more of an advantage, than anything else. I am fully part of both worlds, even if my words carry more weight in my father's clan. I also have to undertake more responsibilities in my father's lineage, than in my maternal one. One is blessed to have been fully assimilated, into both societies. @ laudate I agree with you,absolutely. Never felt any form of descrimination from both sides. Infact, i write my maternal language as well as i speak it. In my secondary sch. days and undergraduate days, i had a ball staying with my maternal folks. It all boils down to perception and family values irrespective of what this tribe believe and what the other tribe doesnt. Humm I really wonder when tribe will no longer be an issue in Nigeria. This forum is becoming hot already! |
