Mama-Gee, Forgive me for underrating your fatuity, I give up. You can now invite those [Mobo444, 190 etcetera] that fall under the same category with you, for an open and unending display of insanity. I'm not inherently st[i]u[/i]pid like You, it's only fair that I opt out before someone considers me your kind. |
Romance / Re: . by MissyB1(m): 11:56pm On Aug 31, 2010 |
mama-gee:Temporarily acting your kind, as that's the only way to make you understand. You newt. mama-gee:The use of 'Some' doesn't conceal the fact that your emphasis was on Edo girls, at large. If you weren't so mentally malnorished, You'D know that, gold-digging is not a trait common among people of a certain tribe. As a result, your comment would have read - Some Edo girls, as well as some girls from other tribes. What's with the -'' Oh well, Some Igbo girls are goldiggers but it depends on the family in which she comes from'' jargon? Can't same be said of Edo girls? Mama-Gee, shut up, I say. |

Mama-Gee, You're taking away all doubts that You're indeed retarded. Friendly advice - Shut up! mama-gee:. . .and Your last line cannot be said of Edo girls? I'm not in a friendly mood tonight. . . . . Hence, wouldn't waste ma time, schooling you. Skedaddle, before I lose it. |

Publisher, You know nothing about Edo girls. At least, about what they like and don't. There's nothing like Edo/Igbo/Hausa [or whatever tribe there is] girls like a certain category of men, for a particular reason. Your comment smells of pure ignorance, I don't even know, from where to start addressing it . [No offense] |

Or is it another fashionable new masquerade? You actually chose a matching canvas for your iro and buba. Haba! You could have gone to Mile12 to rent rain boots instead of these expensive ones. We are sure market women there would gladly rent out a pair to you. We are sure you would look more glamorous. Well we won’t waste so much time on your case, because this is a very bad case. We hereby refer you to Ewekoro Cement Factory for six months because we have been told they need more hands. The court has also given you an option of N1million fine. Bad hair day? My jury is angry in the spirit , because we believe you should know better. How come your hair is like this on the red carpet. Is that thread on your hair sunglass style? You actually ruined our day with this cheap costume and your shoes. Or did you think this was a picnic or what? Aunty Ngozi we won’t take this from you . We hereby refer you to Ifeoma Kojo Williams. You should also pay N800,000 fine. Yellow sisi We were at a loss for words when our fashion police gave evidence that you were caught on a red carpet event dressed like this. Madam this is contrary to section 203 of the red carpet style constitution. My jury is so angry, because you exposed your over-processed skin. Your flimsy top is hereby seized and deposited at NAFDAC headquarters where it would be burned on NTA live with expired drugs. Trying too hard Section 239, subsection 235 of the mini act says “ when in a mini dress cover up other areas”. But you flouted this section by showing off your mammary glands as well. Pay N900, 000 fine. No NAFDAC number We are surprised that we still have these products in the market despite the efforts of NAFDAC and SON to get rid of expired and substandard products from the country. Well, your lawyer is arguing vehemently that your products are certified. We hereby order you to appear with the papers at the next hearing. Until then , pay N1million fine before you are granted bail. Side attraction What was on your mind when you bought that dress? This is absurd and unacceptable. We don’t care how much you bought it. We hereby call on the commissioner for transport in Lagos state to accept this dress as a token from fashion court and use as duster for BRT buses. Eko on ni baje o!

Before Stephanie Okereke, there was a Steph-Nora Okere. Trained as theatre artiste from the famous University of Ife, the Owerri-born actress garnered fame and fortune at the nascent stages of Nollywood but it looks like she has started singing a different song as her fortunes both as an actress and as a practitioner in Nollywood has nose-dived. Unlucky in love, Steph, as colleagues call her, has had relationships, some people say, with the wrong men. The list includes Tony One Week, erratic and violent Jim Iyke who used to batter her on the streets and finally a marriage with Yoruba heartbreak kid Lanre Falana, which finally led to what she has called a marriage in process that never came through. Now free from all enncumberances. Steph seems to be getting her groove back. We spoke to Steph a few days ago and the actress gave us some insights into what she had been up to in the past few months. BEING one of the few truly trained professionals in Nollywood, has Nollywood met your expectations At the beginning yes, Nollywood seemed like it would meet my expectations , my colleagues and I had hopes that we would quickly climb up the lather, but the intrusion of massive unprofessionalism into all facets of Nollywood has long truncated that growth, so as it is am not impressed at all and my expectations have long been quashed. Our dreams and ambitions seem dwarfed by this development. A lot of people are singing songs of praise with the level where Nollywood is now. We are regarded as the second largest movie producing culture in the world. Are you happy with that? I wonder what is there to be happy about. I wonder why we are celebrating mediocrity. Which Nigerian movie has won anything on the international stage. Is it not Indian movies that are winning International laurels. Those who are rejoicing that we have been voted as the third largest movie producing culture in the world, have they asked about the quality of work we are doing or is it only about the quantity. They did not say we are the second “BEST” movie producing culture but the second “LARGEST”, producing nonsense. Listen, where Nollywood is now is expected knowing that we came from nowhere to get to where we are now. The stage we have gotten to is such that we have to decide to either kill the industry or take a rain check and know how to salvage it. It looks like you have not been active in the industry for a long while now. What happened? Have been around the industry but I have been taking my time to study what is going on and looking for a way to make myself relevant in the industry in that, I am repackaging all the stuff I have to offer so that I do not end up like the rest of the people in the band wagonof mediocrity. The works I am preparing to do now are of international standards. So let's just say I have been around but just repackaging my stuff, taking a rain-check to know exactly what to come out with. I am a trained professional don't forget that. I have to hold up my training differentiate myself and set standards for others to follow. Are you saying that right now there are no standards for the industry to look up to? Yes, I strongly believe it is time for us to come back in truth and put down standards that will sustain the industry and also lay standards for whoever intends to join Nollywood. Not what has happened in the past where groups of people come together for their personal interest in pretence that they want to restructure the industry. It is not so difficult to restructure the Industry if we all are sincere to ourselves. If we are agree that there is a need to do things better then all hands should be on deck with a sincere heart and if we do not do that pretty soon, some other interested bodies might do it for us and trust me, we will be worse for it. What other interested bodies? Government, the corporate sector, outside interests, business that do not understand what we do. Is that not what Nollywood has been advocating? Yes, but not when we the practitioners will not be in control of opur destinies and our futures. Not when we would only become hired hands in an industry we helped build and brought to international attention and recognition. What are the major challenges you have faced in your Nollywood walk? My major challenge at the beginning was basically proving myself to an industry that was just kicking off and that I have tried to do over the years with my works , at each stage of my career, I have had to prove my onus and as it stands, I don't think I have done badly, but presently, the challenge I am facing is how to make further positive impact on the industry such that my presence will be relevant now and well after I have left the industry, something like leaving your footprints on the sands of time and these are the reasons why I have taken a break and gone back to the drawing board. It looks like a new trend is emerging where actors are becoming musicians and musicians are looking for ways to get involved in Nollywood. What do you attribute to that? Is it the restlessness of the artistic spirit or is it the need to make more money? Yes I have noticed it. All I have to say is that, a lot of people have some burning desires inside them to do a lot of things especially as an artiste, so whatever input any of my colleagues have made into the arts apart from acting, I it is believe is borne out of that desire to do stuff and not necessarily because they are no longer relevant to Nollywood. By the way, I am presently in the studio working on my music, and if you must know, I was into music long before I went into acting and this part of me, I intend to share with my fans. Your marriage broke up sometime back and you have never told us the reasons why that happened Well, as u said, I have not really come out with the main cause of the breakup, well this is borne out of the fact that I didn't want to rush into making statements to the press that I am not sure about or that I may regret in the future. Without making too much explanation or excuses, I would simply tell you that what I had was a marriage process that was truncated and I intend to grant a proper interview on that. That is why I have taken my time to be careful on what I say about that relationship for now. So many Nollywood marriages are breaking up. is it the pressures of the work, the lives artistes live or what? Marriages are breaking up in Nollywood same way it is breaking up world over. Truth is, it is not just a Nollywood thing, it is a trend world over, mainly because of economic changes. A woman can no longer sit down at home waiting to be fed. One income families don't work anymore. Women need self fulfillment and actualization. That challenges the men. This is the reason you go into a court and you see lots of couples going in for divorce and hey not all of them are from Nollywood, it's just that folks in Nollywood are popular figures that get their stories put into the public by the press. Looking at yourself and the life you have lived. Would you like to change anything about yourself? Nothing my brother, absolutely nothing, because I believe God made me the way I am for His and the purposes of my life and He allowed anything I have encountered in life, whether good or bad, to happen for a purpose, so I have no regrets. |

I do not want to comment on the 'seeing God in the dream' part, for now. But I must agree with the last paragraph - '' Marriage is a covenant (not contract) relationship between a man and a woman. This is why the Bible says that when a man and a woman get married, they become one flesh. In a marriage, a couple stands as one united entity and all friends and foes are common to them'' . |

Question #1 - There are 2 instructions there, which should I follow? In instruction# 1, I can't carry out step 3 because I couldn't even find ''setting'' in the networking tab and as a result, can't carry out step 4. So I decided to try out Instruction # 2 In instruction # 2, Since fix 1 seems not to be my problem, I went straight to fix 2. But I don't understand the last step. Am I supposed to click the "Include Windows logon domain" so that it's selected or not - i.e is the check box supposed to be ticked? BTW, my connection hasn't gone off in the last 12 minutes [I know it eventually will, though]. Just after I have followed the instructions, how do I know I have solved my problem? Do I have to wait to see if it goes off later and then carry out the rest instructions or what? Thanks in advance. |

Hi, I've got a little [?] problem with my connection. Hopefully, someone here would be able to help me out. Since yesterday, my connection keeps going off automatically. When i try to reconnect, it's gives me a message - 734 error : The PPP link control protocol was terminated'. I close the window and try to connect again, then it works. After about 10 mins, it goes off again, and I have to repeat the process. I know something is wrong, but I can't figure it out. What should I do, plz? |
