FamilyRe: What is Your Earliest Childhood Memory ? by Mowire: 11:44pm On Dec 11, 2012
@some in the civil war. Remember a few unarmed soldiers came to our house (@ Ajagba, Irele Lga ondo); sat in front of the house just gisting, I suppose. Then suddenly 2 of them started fighting, 1 picked a chair & the others struggled to restrain both men. @ the end they all left quarelling.
How old was I? To date I don't know, but I must ve been pretty young (may be around 1) Older 1s kept telling me I was too young to be able to remember the incident each time I told this story to them later as youngster.
PropertiesRe: Cost Of Building Event Centre/multi-purpose Halls? by Mowire: 10:17pm On Dec 11, 2012
Boy o boy! Guys!
PropertiesRe: Cost Of Building Event Centre/multi-purpose Halls? by Mowire: 4:15pm On Dec 11, 2012
Do also note that event centre is more than just the building: the car park is also a major construction item.

You sound like you even don't have a location to build on yet.
PropertiesRe: Cost Of Building Event Centre/multi-purpose Halls? by Mowire: 4:09pm On Dec 11, 2012
Xsolutions: As an Expert builder sir,how would a novice go about such project?
Thanks for your assistance.
1st get an architectural design from a competent architect. He/she will do u a set of drawings showing all facilities. A structural engr will do the structural design&detail; the architect can help u get the engr.
I have architect associates I work with.
2nd ur builder/engr or QS will give u a cost estimate based on the design from stage 1 above.
Then u start building.
PropertiesRe: Cost Of Building Event Centre/multi-purpose Halls? by Mowire: 1:16pm On Dec 11, 2012
The cost of building is dependent on the struture type, design, location, facilities to be provided and accessories. I doubt that any competent engineer/builder/QS will give you a cost/estimation when he has not seen the complete set of (detailed) drawings.
BW. By one storey do you mean single floor or "upstair" (2 floors). Cos to professionals (myself inclusive) one storey means 2 levels (upstair), i.e. you have ground & 1st floor.

AlphaBeta Tinubu/fasholaBeta free me oh, I no dey Lagos.
In other word, @freeglobe u're crying more than the bereaved.

@Siena, man your 2nd narration really cracked me! Thank God for you. Now I'm happy allow my 4yr old son get familiar with every gadget of daily use.
PoliticsRe: Tinubu, Fashola, Alpha Beta And The Taxation Rape Of Lagos by Mowire: 2:14pm On Dec 08, 2012
Mr. freeglobe, just always pay your tax. Lagos has no new tax law beside the ones before the current republic. If you are sure I'm wrong correct me.

Youngman. What I posted is the way it should be.
By high tax, what do you really mean? Be sure you have your info right.
PoliticsRe: Six Boko-Haram Sub-commanders Killed & Ammunition Recovered by Mowire: 1:48pm On Dec 08, 2012
I have a feeling the military has finally taken matters into they own hands as they did when ND militants killed army officers along with their men during Yar' Adua's tenure.
Good. Though dangerous.
PoliticsRe: Agbara's Mega Ceramic Factory To Start Operating From Dec 10 by Mowire: 1:36pm On Dec 08, 2012
coolkris: This is a private owned industry what happened to our government what industry have they built
Govt is not supposed to build industries in a democracy. Creating right environment & putting right policies in place to encourage industrialisation should be govts' concern.
FamilyRe: Re-posting To Get Some Very Needed Advice by Mowire: 10:46pm On Dec 07, 2012
julienne86: Why does everybody assume that I had sex with bro-in-law? Ok lets get this straight, when i marry my husband, i was a VIRGIN... he is the one and only man i have ever had sex with.
I dated his brother very briefly. we broke up because he told me that he was married. I liked him and tried to make it work but i just knew that it was a dead-end relationship. And then I met his brother....
Okay o, madam "virgin-@-marriage". Choose what's best for you.

FamilyRe: Why Are Some Youths/Teens So Afraid Of Their Parents And Not Free With Them? by Mowire: 7:43pm On Dec 06, 2012
abombom: lol...no op is not a bad pal. He knows about this thread. Op took his permission b4 doing this.
OK youngman, so you want advice on how to get some freedom off your parent. I'll volunteer one, cos I understand your "pain":
Do this: Ask your parent permission to go see/play with your friends while they are @home. If they refuse then let your friends come over anytime except night or too early in the morning.
Keep showing a lot of respect & love they'll change.
FamilyRe: Re-posting To Get Some Very Needed Advice by Mowire: 7:19pm On Dec 06, 2012
@OP, It's hard for me not to call you names. But you were a very bad girl.
I put myself in your husband's shoes & believe me it won't be very pleasant for you & that bro if/when I find out this aspect of your past. It was wicked not to have said it b4 marriage. It will take divine grace not despise you & the brother for life. As Coogar said you're skrewed whichever way this comes into the open. But I think you should tell @least for your own health/sanity.
You've already set husband's family up for crisis
FamilyRe: Why Are Some Youths/Teens So Afraid Of Their Parents And Not Free With Them? by Mowire: 6:44pm On Dec 06, 2012
@OP, I think you're bad company for your pal, from the way you sound. & you're likely to influence him wrongly. Leave him with his parent. You didn't mention that he asked your advice, you know.

However this is not a Nigerian thing, as some claim:The trad I know is one where once a teenager no one bring such restraints on you. Good parents only need to know what their kids are up to. This is still the way it is in "rural" areas
PoliticsRe: Jonathan Cautions Aides Against Attacking Obasanjo by Mowire: 11:31am On Dec 05, 2012
Noblechyk: Simple question 4u cos I believe u were in Nigeria during d Odi debacle. Did Odi military invasion solve d militancy in dat region?
Yes it did. Did you ever hear or read of any militant uprising again the rest of OBJ's tenure? They all sprang up soon as they had a member of MEND in Abuja (some of you guys are beginning to irritate one)
FamilyRe: What Does 'submission' Of Women In Marriages Mean Exactly? by Mowire: 10:25pm On Dec 04, 2012
tatiana009: Lmao, yes o. Once we learn to act like that we will all buy plenty jewelry and live happily ever after. Such simple mindedness!
Suprise! Life is really as simple as that.
There's Yoruba song: "Ewo gele yeye lori aji gbo t'oko...". It means "Behold the beautiful headgear on the obedient (submissive) wife".
PoliticsRe: Should Buhari Contest For Presidency Again In 2015? by Mowire: 9:44pm On Dec 04, 2012
@courage, I wish you well. But just remember that NL opinions is an infinitesimal representation of the nation. The reality is out there. & it will be bad to bungle the next opportunity we'll have to kick PDP out of national life.
PoliticsRe: ACN Plans To Orchestrate Disagreement Between Fashola And Tinubu by Mowire: 9:31pm On Dec 04, 2012
That will be very interesting.
PoliticsRe: Should Buhari Contest For Presidency Again In 2015? by Mowire: 8:58pm On Dec 04, 2012
@courage89, you cannot divorce democracy from intense politics. You know someone reliable said he asked Buhari what strategy he had to win the last election & the baba had none concrete. How will he deal with the NAS if his politics is not good. Being politician does not mean you've to be corrupt & unable to fight same.
Oh! Jonathan in? The man is dull for his position (I guess that's why those who nominated him to be VP, then did. He's serving the purpose of PDP rogu). He's a fraud (for lack word @moment).
PoliticsRe: Should Buhari Contest For Presidency Again In 2015? by Mowire: 7:09pm On Dec 04, 2012
NO. He's not likely to win. The baba may be a good person but he's just not a politician & does not know politics. You need to know politics to rule successfully in a democracy. &I, personally, think he's become stale.

FSU: When ACN does its BOT meeting, does exconvict and drug-pushing Chicago certificate forger, Tinubu, not attend?
You desperately need to educate yourself so you be free from the lies you've fed about Tinubu by your "fathers".
For starters that cert forgery allegation was created by Afenifere of then. Go find out lazy chap.
PoliticsRe: OBJ: Olden Days Picture In His Farm by Mowire: 2:36pm On Dec 03, 2012
@Mod. Thank you for making the correction.
Our education sector's really in bad state, even the expensive private schools don't really help much.

Hey! Was afam really in futo? & How did u know?

Anyway @afam I'm impressed with ur ambition. U need a lot of money for philantropy (& employment generating biz) in ur area. Be around a lot. The best teacher of the politics of it that I know today is the man you hate so much: TINUBU. He'll make a gr8 mentor believe me.

& A councillor is just an officially paid thug. He does nothing!

I May add asap later
PoliticsRe: Osun To Convert Human, Animal Wastes To Cooking Gas by Mowire: 4:08pm On Dec 01, 2012
The cooking gas (methane) will be by-product of anaerobic digestion of organic matter (human & animal waste in this case, your leftover akpu, amala, eba, etc can thrown the mix too). The public will not even know the source of the gas cos it shouldn't smell any different from LPG.

Are Fulanis & their cows now roaming any of those islands? Please answer o.
PoliticsRe: Jonathan; Citizenship Must Replace State Of Origin by Mowire: 3:30pm On Dec 01, 2012
sosereal201: what the man means is plain and simply,we must try sometime to see the positive in his actions and words.he means we should do away with discrimination and be each other brother.so by replacing ethnicity with citizenship is a step in the right direction to achieving that goal.isnt that what we all want?
I don't think GEJ even knew the content of that speech before it was read! That's my point! Otherwise I would've called him confused. This is the minister's opinion.
PoliticsRe: Jonathan; Citizenship Must Replace State Of Origin by Mowire: 10:28pm On Nov 30, 2012
I very much doubt that Mr. President was ever aware of the content of this speech.
Is Mr. President's native community not one those ND islands? How did the Fulanis get their cows there? I was in Wilberforce island, where Amasoma & Ogobiri are located in 2001, I did not see any Fulani with cow there.
All these ministers&aides may just be misrepresenting GEJ, knowing his faults.
