I love dark skinned men.

Woulda been nice to see your dark skin on your profile after this comment of yours. #justsaying

I may be a proud black man but I'm photo shy.

Sent you a PM though.

The bible says, "When you give, don't let your left hand know what your right hand is doing......don't not be like the pharisees and sadducees, they love to showoff, they have recieved their reward already".

aguiyi:

Ok class, for making a fool of himself, everbody clap for Aguiyi.

A dad wanting his twin teen sons, accustomed to the comforts of the country club, to learn some gratitude took an unusual step.
According to WPCO, a Cincinnati-based TV station, he sent the 14-year-olds to spend the seventh grade in Nigeria.

The boys, Noble and Evan Nwankwo, spent seventh grade at Mea Mater Elizabeth High School in Enugu. There, the day starts with 5 am exercise and prayer, and continues with a 12-subject course load. There’s no help from mum on homework or washing clothes, either.

“Adversity is important in somebody’s development in life, as far as I’m concerned, because there comes a time when the storm is going to hit you, and if you never had that to fall back on you’re just going to fall apart,” Evans Nwankwo, the father, said. “I strongly believe that because it’s been important in my own development.”

Nwankwo was born and raised in Nigeria. He was one of 13 children. The family was well off. Then, the Nigerian civil war broke out and they were running for safety and scrambling for food, and his father was killed.

He eventually made it to the U.S. and built a business. People around Cincinnati probably know Nwankwo’s work – his construction company is the go-to contractor that has worked on sites including Fountain Square, the Freedom Center and Washington Park.
As the boys were getting ready to go, things in Africa were looking bad. The Ebola outbreak was making headlines, as were attacks by the terrorist group Boko Haram on schools in northern Nigeria.

The elder Nwankwo said he had “a lot of apprehension as they were getting ready to go, a lot of anxiety.”
The boys had other concerns.

“I hope I’m not as lazy as I am now,” Noble said before leaving for Nigeria.
It looks like Noble got his wish. Besides being responsible for their studies, basic necessities like water required work to obtain.
“It was kind of eye-opening to see how much you actually have to work to get a simple bucket of water, and how you actually have to use your own strength to carry it back and forth,” Noble said. “And it’s actually pretty tough to hand-wash your clothes with that amount of water. You have to really manage it.”

“You have to be trekking all over the school just to get water to bathe with… Here you can just turn on the tap and there’ll be water flowing like it’s nothing,” Evan said. “There, you’ll, be struggling for it. Sometimes we would go without water for a couple of days.”
Since returning, their dad said he’s already seen a change in his boys.
“I feel that the experience is one that will live with them forever, and they will be forever changed – maybe not on the immediate, but long term.”

Evan and Noble agreed.
“I appreciate the washing machine. I appreciate the running water. I appreciate the shower, so I don’t have to use a bucket of water in a bowl,” Noble said. “I appreciate my electronics. I appreciate my parents a lot more because I realise how much – especially my dad – I really realise how much he had to do to get here.”

Besides the actual experience, they said their dad taught them a lot as well.
“He’s taught me a lot, and he’s made me go through a lot to make me a better person, to make me a person that can just endure,” Evan said.

The trip may turn into a family tradition. Evans said he was going to put aside some money so any future grandchildren can also spend a year in Nigeria.

Dis is just wrong from whatever angle or perspective u look at it.

Its even an article culled from a newspaper, not a direct statement from any of the workers and it exposes the truth about the state of Education in Ogun state in particular and Nigeria in general.

They send their children abroad to study while the schools attended by children of ordinary Nigerians are in shambles.

Yet a constructive criticism of the poor state of Education is met with a "sack".

Pls Nairalanders lets begin a protest on social media especially on twitter so these workers be reinstated. Also a petition should be written to the appropraite authorities about the situation.

PMB, should be informed about this ugly incident.

Also the sacked workers should file a case against the Ogun state govt. They should be reinstated, given an apology and compensated for the unlawful act.

Is it against the law to point out areas where the govt needs to improve in its governace of the people?

aguiyi:
a pedophile extraordinaire .

the friend of a pedophile is a pedophile after-all birds of a feather flocks together

So I could call u a coward cos thats what Nnamdi Kanu is; hidding in the U.K and telling the ordinary Igbo man to prepare to kill himself.

He is a coward and so are u because birds of a feather flock together.

danpaul1:
Concentrate on governance and allow the anti-graft agencies do their job

But this isn't just a mere issue of one governor stealing the money belonging to his state, this involves a former president and his ministers with some very mimd boggling accusations.

There is no way PMB isn't going to be involved especially as he hopes to recover as much as possible due to the dwindling oil prices.

christinie:
Every young guy should start saving money for DNA. Some girls are no longer smiling.

I concur!

Whr is dat my piggy bank sef?

danpaul1:
APC political office holders (pmb, govs) have all abandoned governance which they were voted for in pursuit of so called "stolen money". I'd rather tag it witch-hunting!

So what should they do...allow them go free?

Bibidear:
Try talking to him abt sex and the harmful aspect

Well said.

Dats the only way, not beating.

However, its her fault he is in this mess.

If she had taught him about sex and d harmful aspects especially watching of porn, when his classmate brought up the mata he would have just laughed and told him, my mum already told me about it and its very very harmful.

Even if his friend tries to convince him that porn isn't harmful, I'm guessing he would rather believe his mum than his friend.

Advice to all parents or potential parents, sex education for kids begins at 2 years of age

Tell you child not to let anyone touch his/her privates except mummy and that should be when she is bathing him/her.

From there, u gradually upgrade the teaching. Every age has what it could be taught about sex and its dangers.

A friend of mine had a very strange experience.

He saw his sperm for the first time on his shorts (nika), out of fear, he ran to the sitting room to show his dad the "strange occurance".

And the dad was entertaining a few friends dat day. You can imagine the embarrassment the dad felt on seeing what his son was showing him.

But if he had taught him about what was to come as he gets into puberty, that incident wouldn't have happened.

Same with mothers.

Some mothers don't talk to their daughters about menstruation and all that comes with it. When the young girl comes of age and out of ignorance gets pregnant, the mother starts swearing heaven and earth.

NOTE: Parents endevour talk to your kids about sex from the moment they can count numbers and alphabets.

Vyolet:
so after asking her out and she rejected him,he had to throw shots at her. Sorry Gideon,Tonto is taken,manage your rejection.

Did he really ask her out? Didnt hear of it.

Matttthew:
they won't still understand unless practical



Modified# I no say make you teach them bad thing oooo....



But when a child clock 12 I think parents shld start to educate them abut sex esp females.
This method won't really help





Probably because....this is a joke
#And by the way FTC












NO Run mad ooo
I mean FourthToCommento














Get Behind me O! INTROVERT!

Sex education begins at two years of age.

U tell ur child not to let anyone touch his/her privates except mummy and dat would be while she is bathing him/her.

OrlandoOwoh:
The peace committee shouldn't be an avenue to prevent the probe of Jonathan. If this happens, Abdusalam Abubakar will lose his credibility.

For the who know him well he has no credibility.

If u know hw much he stole during hsi short time as Head of State....hmmmm.

This is why Nnamdi Kanu calls us Baboons and Monkeys.

We Nigerians have been foolish and gullible since 1960!

Imagine jobless youths shielding a corrupt public office holder from investigation (cos of N500) when their counterparts in Ukraine are putting a house of reps member in the dustbin with his suitcase cos he failed them.

Nigerians mak una wise oooooooooooo!!!!

They have taken the fight to the centre, instead of wasting time and resources shutting stations.
Whether it is upstream, downstream, gas or laboratory sector that is found defaulting, they surely dance to the music.

So why making it seem like it's a novelty by saying

Can we now agree for once that the promised cosmetic change is a farce?
Isn't it becoming glaring that transformational change is the real deal?

The high level corruption that occured in GEJ's tenure is it also part of the transformational change?

chocolateme:

Why u go dey book space at ya age?!

BTW, be informed that all members of the association of space bookers (ASB) would have their monthly meeting this sunday by 8pm.

I'm wondering, what if it was her husband with her in the car, would she have been demoted?

Don't know much about father-daughter bond cos I'm not a dad yet.

But I know its very strong considering the fact that I wish for a girl-child as my first and I already love her.

GenBloodykiIler:
Nope your harlot mother forks random dogs just for #300 isn't it?

I won't this dignify ur trash talk by answering you further.

Do you have any respect/love for your mother?

I doubt u do cos if you do, you won't insult some1 else's mum knowing the improtance mothers in our lives.

You can insult me as much as you like; say anything you like to me, but please don't drag my mum into this rubbish.

If u have no regard for ur mum, I feel sorry for you cos I love and respect my mum.

new2020:
Are you yoruba? Explains why you can't differentiate between these names. I'm from Cross River. Essien is a Calabar name. Attah is predominately Akwa Ibom and Igbo; most of Ibibios' names are found also in Igbo.

Oh...I see.

Hope to meet my own Ekaite Attah-Essien someday.

Hmmm...

Mr. Lawyer, you are obviously annoyed ur oga at the top, Saraki, is been exposed for who he really is, a thief, a fraudster and a corrupt politician who would step on any one just to achieve his selfish aims.

GenBloodykiIler:
Alert! ModiKen's harlot mother is forking dogs oooo

Na my mama and ur mama dey do d ashawo business nowww....abi?

Our Nigerian universities could be better.

Compare this to Unuversity of Pretoria or Jo'burg (lets not even go too far by comparing it with a U.K or U.S university), you would be ashamed.

Unizik looks very dirty and unkempt.

See weed struggling the road with motorist.

And this is just a mirror of what most Nigerian universities look like.

Just google universities in better countries and see d difference.

Clean lecture and hostel buildings, neatly cut lawns, tarred roads, e.t.c

But what do expect from ours when corruption, bribery (sorting) and exam malpractice has become the order of the day

GenBloodykiIler:
am your biological father go and ask your harlot mother

failed mr nairaland

Alert!

A lunatic has escaped from Yaba!

new2020:
Written by a shameless yoruba man. See how they craft the name...Attah Essien.lol

I thought Essien is a Ghanian name.

Since when did it become Yoruba?

The name Attah is a Cross River name. So?

kazmanbanjoko:
