Gone are the days when we all looked forward to an entertaining performance from the super eagles, I miss JJ Okocha so much. In my opinion, he's the best African player ever followed by Yaya toure with his incredible finesse shots. Good luck from Sweden.

An suspected car thief was caught and burnt to death in Lagos yesterday.According to a www.metronaija.com reader,who was at the scene said ,he was caught at Isikalu street junction,Olodi-Apapa, Lagos...

Black people are naturally evil and wicked, I now see why a lot of scientists label your lots as sub-humans. So you burn a man alive for stealing a car and yet you guys are governed by criminals that have stolen billions from you. Hopefully you guys will evolve into normal humans in the next century.

naijainfogalery:
I dont understand whats wrong with Africa especially Nigeria , we have everything it takes to be the richest in the world yet we are broke

We have the highest number of natural resources
We have oil
We have strong agile youths workforce
We have good soil for farming
We have plenty rivers, sea and ocean
We have diverse cultures and tradition
We have brains
We have intelligent people

Yet we cant use common sense to develop our nation - Switzerland doesnt have a single natural resources yet they are one of the richest in the world.
We keep blaming our government for our woes but the problem isnt solely our government WE ARE ALL THE PROBLEM OF THIS COUNTRY
How?
- You cheat during exams
- You disobey traffic laws
- You cant help your fellow country man
- You pay/collect/encourage bribery
- You cant beat your chest and say you are not corrupt
- You have benefited from corruption
- You know the right thing to do but will never do it
- You are too tribalistic, you will rather watch the nation burn than see another tribe rule
- You are greedy , you want all the money to yourself alonet
A lot of Nigerians I have seen are very lazy and always looking for shortcuts for everything that's why there is so much corruption and greed. Religion is another factor that has limited the rational thinking of many Africans.

Inasmuch as we totally condemn BH we need to start to check if girls like this are not VICTIMS as well.

If she had her way she would be working in Shell or in Citibank like some of her fellows from the same region. it is hard to find a sane woman who would accept to be a suicide bomber! I guess the terrorists have reduced her to that level where she has lost every iota of self-esteem.

Imagine a young girl being gang-raped and sold out to dirty criminals who do everything to de-humanize her and then they force her to carry a bomb! Left with no career to pursue, no father around to call 'daddy', no idea if her mother is still alive, no links to anyone to call sister or brother, no wardrobes to take selfie with and post on instagram like many of our Lagos celebrities would do!

She has probably been made to see herself as worse than a dog, and then she is asked to take a bomb.

Please dont just abuse this girl.

The government should interrogate her and check if she is truly having a mid to kill, or if indeed those shekau criminals forced her into this after having taken everything of value from her!
Nice to see someone posting an intelligent comment on this forum. Many Nigerians will just go along with the knee jerk reaction of killing the girl instead of extracting some useful information that will lead to the masterminds and maybe the sponsors as well.
Science/TechnologyAfter Seeing These Cringeworthy Pictures, You'll Never Tempt Fate Again. OUCH by mickyeddi(op): 7:35pm On Jul 28, 2015
When you mess with the bull, you get the horns. That's a pretty common phrase, used in conversations, media, literature and movies. If you haven't heard of it before (or watched The Breakfast Club, shame on you), the idiom means that if you do something dangerous or high risk, you're probably going to get hurt. You shouldn't tempt fate. These people probably never heard of that phrase before, because they seem to be tempting fate willy-nilly... and immediately feeling the consequences of that. YIKES.

This is the opposite of what you want to see here.

HealthWhat 18 Doctors Discovered Inside Of Their Patients Will Leave You Speechless by mickyeddi(op): 10:36am On Jul 28, 2015
It really isn't a shock that people are always finding new and creative ways to injure themselves. What is shocking is actually seeing the X-ray photos of these injuries.

Through the miracle of X-ray technology, medical professionals can now see the bodily trauma their patients have undergone. This allows them to better comprehend how serious the injury is as well as make better treatment decisions. The X-rays also serve as a reminder of what close calls some of these injuries really were. It really makes you wonder...what were these people thinking?!

1. This woman's stomach contained a grand total of 78 pieces of cutlery.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/032/desktop-1423168054.jpg

2. Apparently, aerosol cans are pretty common foreign bodies found in people's rectums.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/050/desktop-1423237105.jpg

3. This guy swallowed a cockroach. Then he swallowed a fork while trying to get the cockroach out. What a rough day.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/046/desktop-1423168307.jpg

4. If you happen to have a pair of scissors in or around your mouth, please don't swallow them.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/038/desktop-1423168061.jpg

5. This guy had a deodorant bottle jammed inside his body. Doesn't it say on the label, "for external use only"?

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/048/desktop-1423236761.jpg

6. That's one way to smuggle a cell phone into a big exam.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/030/desktop-1423168052.jpg

7. This terrorist further demonstrated his stupidity by swallowing a grenade without having anyway to detonate it.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/047/desktop-1423171124.jpg

8. A young girl thought that some metal objects were candies. You'd think she would've stopped after the first one. Luckily, she was okay

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/028/desktop-1423168049.jpg

9. This girl proved that love does strange things to people when she swallowed a bunch of cobblestones after getting angry at her boyfriend.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/029/desktop-1423168050.jpg

10. Despite what you may think, an instant coffee jar will not help your digestive tract.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/049/desktop-1423236952.jpg


11. This guy was stabbed in the head when he and some friends tried to stop a bus robbery. He later recovered from his injury.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/042/desktop-1423168065.jpg

12. This lightbulb was found inside a prisoner in Pakistan. He had no idea how it got there.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/031/desktop-1423168053.jpg

13. This man denied that he had put a bottle up his rectum and tried to remove it with a wire. The doctors had to show him the X-ray to get him to admit it.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/045/desktop-1423168304.jpg

14. This is what happens when surgeons don't double check they have the same amount of tools they started with after a surgery.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/039/desktop-1423168062.jpg

15. An arrow was lodged in the head of a young boy in China. He survived, but this X-ray is a reminder of what a close call it was.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/036/desktop-1423168060.jpg

16. Believe it or not, this guy didn't know he had a nail in his head...until he saw the X-ray.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/034/desktop-1423168057.jpg

17. Oh man, a pint glass has really gotta hurt.

https://images.checkthisyo.com/000/187/033/desktop-1423168055.jpg

18. A man planned to propose to his girlfriend by putting the engagement ring in her milkshake. Everything was going well, until....

FamilyHere Are Parents That Will Make You Fear For The Future by mickyeddi(op): 6:45pm On Jul 27, 2015
From time to time, we all make mistakes. After all, we are human. But, these parents took the "eh, don't worry about it" idea to the next level... and it's kind of awful. These parenting fails are so ridiculous, I'm not sure how they even happened. What were these people thinking? Dangling your kids over fences or ignoring them should never seem like a GOOD idea...

1. Well that could have ended BAD...

10. Just think of how good they'll be with computers when they grow up.

PoliticsNigerian Soldiers Are Murderers And Rapists - Patrick Leahy by mickyeddi(op): 9:04am On Jul 27, 2015

Patrick Leahy – sponsor of the Leahy Law (or Leahy amendment) that prohibits the US Department of State and Department of Defence from providing military assistance to foreign military units that violate human rights with impunity – believes that President Muhammadu Buhari’s opinion of the effect of the law on the war against Boko Haram is “misdirected”. Leaahy said neither he nor the law could be blamed for the atrocities committed by the “murderers and rapists in the Nigerian military”.

“It is well-documented by the State Department and by respected human rights organisations that Nigerian army personnel have, for many years, engaged in a pattern and practice of gross violations of human rights against the Nigerian people and others, including summary executions of prisoners, indiscriminate attacks against civilians, torture, forced disappearances and rape. Rarely have the perpetrators been prosecuted or punished,” he said

“This abusive conduct not only violates the laws of war, it creates fear and loathing among the Nigerian people whose support is necessary to defeat a terrorist group like Boko Haram. “President Buhari ignores the undisputed fact that most Nigerian army units have been approved, under the Leahy Law, for U.S. training and equipment. Only those particular units against which there is credible evidence of the most heinous crimes are ineligible for U.S. aid. And even those units can again become eligible if the Nigerian Government takes effective steps to bring the responsible individuals to justice.

“I strongly agree with President Buhari about the need to defeat Boko Haram, and I have supported tens of millions of dollars in U.S. aid to Nigeria for that purpose. But rather than suggest that the United States is at fault for not funding murderers and rapists in the Nigerian military, he should face up to his own responsibility to effectively counter Boko Haram. He should direct his attention to the Nigerian military, and the Nigerian courts, and clean up the units implicated in such atrocities.

” Speaking at the United States Institute for Peace (USIP) on Wednesday, Buhari had lamented that the law “aided and abetted” the campaign of bloodletting of Boko Haram, urging the US government to review it so that it could provide the needed assistance to Nigeria to crush Boko Haram.

“In our efforts at combating the activities of Boko Haram, the new government has sought and obtained the support of not only our neighbours other international friends and partners. Regrettably, the blanket application of the Leahy Law by the United States on the grounds of unproven allegations of human rights violations levelled against our forces has denied us access to appropriate strategic weapons to prosecute the war against the insurgents,” he had said.

“In the face of abduction of innocent school girls from their hostels, indiscriminate bombings of civilians in markets and places of worship, our forces have remained largely impotent because they do not possess the appropriate weapons and technology which they could have had, had the so-called human rights violations not been an obstacle.

“Unwittingly, and I dare say, unintentionally, the application of the Leahy law amendment by the U. S. Government has aided and abetted the Boko Haram terrorist group in the prosecution of its extremist ideology and hate, the indiscriminate killings and maiming of civilians, in raping of women and girls, and in their other heinous crimes. I believe this is not the spirit of the Leahy Laws. I know the American people cannot support any group engaged in these crimes.” Buhari’s spokesman, Femi Adesina, subsequently attempted to harp on the innocence of the president’s comment.

likila:
this general is illiterate.
boko haram attack unexpectedly.
they never stage massed-rank WW1 attacks.
if they scout out NA HQ and the factors are in their favor, they would attack and burn it to the ground.
At least, someone calling somebody else an illiterate should know you start a sentence with a capital letter. English is not my first language and I know this.

7500 candidates seeking for medicine in a university. Of these 7500 candidates, 2000 scored above 250 in the UTME. The university has a carrying capacity of only 150 candidates for medicine. The remaining 7350 who scored above 200 will be wasted. Particularly, 1750 candidates who scored above 250 will be wasted while other universities either do not have enough candidates or high scoring candidates.

Courses like Biological Sciences, Agric Engineering and related courses are lacking in candidacy!

TV/MoviesMexican Singer's Sanitary Pad Falls Out During Live TV Performance by mickyeddi(op): 10:45am On Jul 25, 2015

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3FftHDSqx4


A Mexican singer lived out every female performer’s worst nightmare when her sanitary pad fell out from between her legs while she was singing on live TV.

But rather than stumble or cut short her performance, 42-year-old Patricia Navidad bravely carried on singing on the show, which was seen by thousands of stunned viewers.

Patricia, who was wearing a short blue mini dress, was performing live on morning TV show Despierta America (Wake Up America) when the incident happened.

After a brief grimace as she realised what had happened, Patricia courageously stepped away from the pantie pad and finished the song without faltering.

However, cruel trolls on Twitter have made fun of the singer, who later defended herself against the bullies.
She tweeted: “I want to make it clear that I never threw or would throw the pad.

“It fell by itself through a very sophisticated tunnel! Thank you, I love you.”

She later added: "This is not something I should be ashamed of or be mocked for.

But while judging, bullying and pointing at me you forget you are not what you say you are.”

Patricia started acting in soap operas in the early 90s and is also a singer.

She won the Miss Sinaloa beauty contest when she was just 17-year-old.
