i like hearin abt women gynaecologists, though they are nt many

If there are not many (in some partn of the country) it is because some people prefer to send their daughters off to be violated by Senator Yerima ond his pals than allow their daughters to have an education that might allow them to flourish.

jonaifame22:
even after marriage?

Never.

Remember how our forefathers did it? A compound with many domiciles (and many wives).

When necessary you visit each wife but none occupy your own personal space.

I'm not one for polygamy (one wife is trouble enough) but separate living quarters is a smart move.

There's never a good time to allow a woman move in with you.

Plenty of ashawos have kids .

Power is an issue but speed is decent in most cities that I've been too.

Was it not his friend in Kaduna who oversaw the sale of NITEL?

This man na ashawo.

And by what definition is this old woman 'beautiful'?

oloyede252:
they have no regard for separation of power.please Mr man what concerns judiciary with probe or is it the function of the legislature .what are the function of judiciary when nobody has being tried to court.please try to use your brain before posting thing online,but if you're a supporter of PDP or Biafra its OK for you to think like that.gud night

These are matters of criminality, which is why we have a criminal justice system.

If we have the executive behaving as the judiciary then why do we need a judiciary?

How is the judiciary going to act in an impartial manner if the executive keep interfering and making prejudicial statements.

If the executive wishes to eradicate corrupt habits maybe it should be begin with its own conduct. Strengthen institutions so that they might stand on their own merits and allow them to act for the betterment of the people.

joory1:
Since this APC government emerged, is one probe to another without end results. Hope all this are not media propaganda?

They haven't probed anyone - they keep making announcements without announcing results.

The question I've been asking is what happened to the judicial system? Why do they not make use of it? Or fix it if is broken?

Why do they appear to have no regard for the separation of powers?

SomebodyLovesMe:
Anyone is free to believe what they want. The question is why he considered Nigeria a fertile ground. With the kind of irresponsible and weak leadership this country has had over the last few years, it's no surprise that he would consider it a safe haven. The Lebanese who were caught with arms in Abuja some years ago haven't been heard of since.

They went to trial, Tahal Roda was sentenced to life in prison.

It was all over the news - that you did not hear anything else says more about you than it does the authorities or the press.

You made some great points but its unfair to target Africans.

There are billions of brain dead people out there who have submitted to religious nonsense.

Why do we have courts?

Why do we have judges?

Why do we have prisons?

And say what?

Many of these wives have been the side chick.

Lol Windows 8.1 isn't prone to virus?

OP belongs in the 19th century.

Just because you feel safe today does not mean that you will be tomorrow.

You can hand your money over to a thief.

You can hear lies of how 'satan' and not a poor diet and a lack of sleep caused someone's father to die of a stroke.

You can hear more lies of how 'god' blessed a young lady with a new job - she forgets to tell the congregation what he had to do to earn the job.

You get to meet ashawo. Churches are full of them.

Africaine:
Nope he doesn't deserve it. It's funny how people or bodies outside sit down and analyse /conclude for people in other countries when you haven't lived in the country to get the true picture ....

Banks are not run to benefit the majority - the banking system itself is a means of keeping the majority in debt.

The fact that more individuals, companies and parastatals are in debt is good for the bottom line of a bank.

Silly girl.

That's what it probably says on the tattoo.

All these dumb people getting tattoos in languages that they don't understand.

He has no intention of hiring 'saints' he just wants to stall acting in a democratic manner.

OP, do you have a link to the 'prayer warriors' announcement?

If that's true then the governor needs to be dragged out of his home and shot.

Litmus:
I saw a documentary some years ago , can't remember the name, but it was about roads built in America in the 1920's or so that are still in perfect conditions today. Upshot is, roads can last long. Roads built in Nigeria are deliberately substandard for the purpose of generating contractors money, climate has little to do with it.

I haven't a clue about road building so don't laugh when i suggest maybe we should construct our roads using steel sheets. Expensive in the short term but money saving long term. Just think, roadside sellers would be able to roast yam and plantain on the surface for free and dogs and madmen would think twice before scampering across roads causing nuisance.

Surely it depends on which part of America - there are roads in California that are atrocious and have been as long for as I can remember.

I know that some roads have been built to last - the road from Accra to Tema that was built in Nkrumah's time from is still in excellent condition but that is not the norm, anywhere.

Maybe it is the contractors deliberate actions or their oversight but most roads wherever you go struggle to be road worthy over a period of years because of usage or climate.

Having said all that, there's no reason why this particular road should be falling apart so soon.

Scolding a child for an involuntary function, such as wetting the bed, does not help.

After a certain age bed-wetting is linked to anxiety, making scolding even more nonsensical.

boujaye:
Its a pity, I remember recently a pastor asked for prayers to avert dangers on our air space, but he was so resented, insulted and abused here on NL.

Lets continue to pray for our air space.

Prayers stop helicopters from crashing?

Since when?

Is this the Lord's hand at work?

Ashawo business is global business, Festac is not unique.

I go to Dubai, I see ashawo,

Paris, ashawo.

Beijing, ashawo,

LA, ashawo

This is not 'news'.

It is your responsibility to make our office-bearers and spiritual leaders to be responsible and accountable. The angels didn’t do it for Nelson Mandela and wouldn’t for you. Stand up to be counted for the right reasons and there is no better time than now especially as Nigeria is presently encircled with the mantra of ‘change.’

I am in a wonderland and find it hard to understand why you have chosen to take the back seat when burning national issues present themselves.

How else can I explain the quietude displayed by you even in the face of dire consequences starring you eye-ball-to-eye-ball?

These issues are legion. Politics and religious tenets do not mix but you have aided the political classes today to work with religious schisms to pull the youths apart.

Why fall for these ruses? A man who chooses to use religion as a path to seeking elective office is a demagogue with nothing to offer. How many countries in the world succeed today by interpreting religious precepts over and above democratic principles or even the constitution of the country?

It is inappropriate for you to be comfortable with leaders whose aim is to enslave you in perpetuity. Such leaders care more about the welfare of cronies than yours and send these yes men out of the country for religious pursuits at the expense of the development of state.

What you need are leaders that can secure your future and that of your progenies and not mortgage it.

Unlike your forebears, who appreciated the impact of ‘people power,’ today’s elected executives fritter your commonwealth on issues not related to development and they are not denounced.

They ask you to work with an austere regimen but dole out monies frivolously to associates, buy up most of the properties in Abuja and I am left to wonder if there would be any property left for you to buy in Abuja at an appropriate time.

Why celebrate administrators that cannot be credited with completing meaningful projects? They leave the states massively in debt and run to Abuja when their tours of duty are over.

Like most youths elsewhere, why do you enjoy working with typecasts shoved down your throats for decades by people who say, “hate the other side”. You have worked with the charge surprisingly well. But how long are you going to work with such prejudices and stereotypes that pit one region of the country against another?

Education is useless if it does not impact positively on the lives of millions of uneducated, ignorant youths who are teetering on hopelessness and poverty.

Seek education enthusiastically; ensure your children attend schools and give the girl child an equal an opportunity for learning and development as the male child. Do not discriminate against children due to accidents of birth. Only small-minded people do so.

When will you finally ask the elected, why are we so poor? Why are our youths known for begging? Why are these young boys in every major Nigerian city homeless?

You wield a lot of power and can effect a positive change for the development of this country.

Think about it again; at ages compared to your northern forebears ( some of you are even older now) they seized the moment to become nationalists but why have you kowtowed to intolerant politicians and some religious leaders whose mission is to pull this nation apart?

Life has always been grim for the rural dwellers and today it is also greyer for the city dwellers with no supply of portable clean drinking water by government.

Where then is the dole of democracy and why make the work of elected officials easy by not demanding accountability on issues impacting on your welfare?

We need not recount the dangers of VVF caused by early marriages (child bride). How many of the rich give away their daughters at that age? They do not, because they secure the future of the girl child before marriage. Why should you – when they do not?

Why don’t you raise awareness against the unwholesome practices where our girl-children are now abandoned due to being burdens and have become a menace to society?

Sanchez01:
The North owns almost all Nigeria as they control the food aspect of the country. Food itself is life (at least to the belly).

I read on a thread days back on how someone was asking what the North produce. I think he has his answers now.

God bless Nigeria.

Nigeria imports the majority of its food.

The north could produce a lot more and feed the entire continent, sadly it does not.

Why is a region so blessed with resources also one of the most regressive and impoverished parts of the continent?

Brightology2:
Jst imagine wat d abokis are producing,groundnut,tomatoes,na wa o

It's what they could be producing that is amazing.

They could generate enough solar energy to power industry - but don't.

They could irrigate their lands and feed the entire continent with the arable land that they occupy - but do not.

They could empower their people with reasonable finance to grow their businesses - but do not.

agarawu23:
money and properties that you gathered from illegal way will not last you forever.

you think you are wise by buying lands, houses, filling station etc as investment against future with the money you steal/fraud from ppl? if my God of wonders get your time, He will put you in one problem that will make you sell all your property at cheaper rate and you will finally be left with nothing.

Ibadan is now competing with Lagos, the Ibadan I knew back then is a crime free state.....

No city on earth is 'crime free', not even the smallest village is able to exist in such a state.

MrCork:
....u kiddddin me right??..this is tripin u people ther in Nigeria?...we been usin this in London for the past 50yrs!!! (no oofeinse)

Which farm in 'London' would you need to use such a tractor on£

Last I checked 'London' was an overcrowded city, how did they manage to create farmland from steel and concrete?

I hope those people whose education has been neglected are given some kind of training with this machinery.

To be honest I would not be surprised if this hardware ended up on the black market within a short period of time.

I'm sure there is some important content in there but that author needs an editor.
