You are joking!
Right?

Jakumo:

You are a phucking genius, Oyb. I can hear Frankie Valley's chorus with that soaring falsetto, as I recover from the serious laughter attack I just suffered.

The resemblance is uncanny. I chit you not. Good one Kongi. You is da man.

Kongi knows that Johnny B. Goode hates the hippo's guts, and will drop her like a bad habit the instant it becomes politicaly expedient to do so.

Divorce the HIPPO already, Johnny B. Goode. We're rooting for ya. We know your mama didn't raise no fools, and we know you will do the right thing. Sho' y'right ha ha ha ha ha

As old Red Foxx used to say to Aunt Esther " Beauty is only skin deep, [size=14pt]BUT UGLY IS TO THE BONE" ha ha ha ha[/size]

Damn ! A muffuguh could park a couple of 1965 low-rider Chevy Impalas in each of those monstrous nostrils, and still have enough space left over for a couple of dirt-bikes.

Ol boy!
You dey mad o
Your description left me in stitches

SLIDE waxie: You still dey talk?

Stones never do u?

Until dem throw bullet ur mouth no go seal!!

Ahahahaaa!
Just like a lout, you all are!

The PEN is mightier any day than your stones, thugs and even your bullets!

you can extract a hippopotamus from the swamps, but you cannot take the swamp out of the hippopotamus

Classic!

Ouch!!!

Sometimes I am amazed at the level of ignorance and id.iocy of some posters on this forum.
What is the essence of the rubbish above?
Is the presidency now a traditonal kingship?
You people need to rid yourselves of these slavery mentality.
This is democracy and not a monarchy!
In a saner clime, when a male or female president, prime minister or a head of government is in charge, the partner does not get publicly involved in the affairs of the state, so as not to whittle down the respect accorded that leader.
I'm sure you are trying to defend the criminal behaviour of your SHAME or is it DAME JONATHAN?
You people are just getting more ridiculous day by day.
Nonsense

greaterlove: . A lot of Nigerians share your view because of the distrust we already have for the government, but if we are really honest I don't think any government could have come up with a better deal. On the quality of job the chiness will do, I for one know the chiness are thinking long term, $3B is a tip of the iceberg of what Nigeria really needs to invest in infrastructure, like someone said in a previous post we need about $200B invested in infrastructure if Nigeria really want to be in the top 20 economies, will they the chiness shot themselves in the leg when there is still a long way to go? I don't think so.

Honestly I love your optimism, but the fact of life requires constant reality check.
One thing about greed is that, one believes one can get away with cheating and the other party is a fool that will constantly fall for the same trick.
Believing china will do the right thing without adequate monitoring and strict protocol is like giving a bulimia patient your pot of soup to prepare and believing all the meats will be intact.

C. whyte:


ok nice point. but i think the chinese will be reasonable enough to make good buildings because if they fail at this, they may never get a second chance.

note: chinese dont make substandard produts. my apple macbook was made in china, bought it since 2008 or so.
like my supplier used to say, Good Money, Good Products.

The apple products you mentioned, I hope you understand the level of thorough monitoring, from designs to quality control that apple company gives their Chinese suppliers and manufacturers?

I'm sure you have seen the apple knock offs that the Chinese companies on their own manufacture?

The question is the same?
Who designs, do the R & D for the materials that will be used for own chinko infrastructures?
And Who monitors ( knowing our people, a little dollars will change hands and our inspectors will look the other way)
I pray these work anyway.

The basic questions in all these are not been asked, having it at the back of our minds that corruption is a global disease, you will be suprised that the Chinese are equally as corrupt as Nigerians.
1. How are these projects going to be monitored? Since the Chinese companies are going to receive their money directly from their government. I'm also sure their interest will be protected no matter what.

2. What stops these companies cutting corners and using substandard materials with a lot of cosmetic dressing? We all know china as the home of substandard products, and when it comes to maximising profits, the Chinese are the worst of the lot.

3. What stops them ripping us off as our government has actually sold us off to them?

These are questions begging for answers!

We all want development!
But not the kind that we will pay for with our blood and later realised, we have been ripped off!

adconline:
Look at you and look them Obamas.. Why are u hating on someone whose smallest accomplishment nobody i. your lineage IS (mark my word) going to accomplish?

Is the rubbish you wrote up there, what this thread about?
Ode!
I'm also sure your surname is not OBAMA, or is it?
Fyi, what i hate about your uncle or your daddy is the way he is going about forcing same sex marriage on everybody!
Kapisch?

And that's why i will always want him to have a taste of his own medicine!

newton eni: Gov Amaechi is a Capoon in Viking in Uniport it's a shame that we elected bunch of cultist to run the affairs of Rivers State Amaechi is an accomplice to what transpired in Rivers H/A if Hon. M. Chinda dies as a result of the attempted murder from Dishonorable Chidi llyord he(Gov. Amaechi) should be ready to go jail as an accomplice because Gov. Amaechi gave the mace to llyord to hit Ho. chinda on his HEAD spiritually....

Una no go kill person o
Hit chinda on the head spiritually, no be physical hit again

Only a fool will not discern the voice of Jacob and the hands of Esau.

Our snake of a president will soon face the monsters he and his hippo wife, are creating!

Mynd_44:
I don't think he would mind

That's what the liberals always say, until it hits them in the face.

These people are bloody hypocrites, and their words are basically politics.

The only way he will condone such, I'm sure, is if he is a closet gay himself!

I hope its with a lesbian
wonder what daddy o will say

Will a little bit of Karma not be nice?

thelastPope: All of you who made all these responses are ignoramus! Very sad the quality of people posting on Nairaland!

1. Obama was received at the Airport in South Africa by a Minister

2. Obama was received at the Airport in Germany by a Minister

3. Jacob Zuma was received at the Airport in China by the Chinese Ambassador to South Africa

We can go on and on and on! In fact, it is against tradition in most democracies for presidents to receive other presidents at the airport. Presidents receive other presidents in the government house.

Most of you amaze with your unintelligent posts!

The spin doctors are here!
I just love the way you guys try to convince people that a piece of turd is actually a chunk of chocolate
Yeah I'm sure junior minister are those that welcomed Obama during his just concluded african trip.
I'm also sure if that jiaping or what is his name, pays a visit to Nigeria, red carpets will be rolled out with our dear president standing like a school kid on the tarmac waiting to welcome him.
I'm sure you will not see anything bad in that.
You paid hacks, you all are finding your job more difficult daily in your quest to defend your meal ticket

Chei! Jonathan don suffer!
No respect in 9ja, no respect in America, China too dey take him do yanga!
Mobutu sef no reach this low

haka_nai: Finally from the history notes one can say the Yorubas are not cowards after all(as the Igbos particulary want people to believe) and dealt with the Biafrans in combat where need be.Counting several victories and brave expeditions. Again it is only a fool that will see the quiet nature of some people as a general weakness to its own.
From the great man account, it is also evident yet again that Biafrans committed atrocities,invaded the midwest and lied about it via Biafra PR/spokesman Achebe.
Again and Again history has shown that war is not an answer.That peace remains ultimate. Obj the player always never seize to amaze.I think he had thought about PDP since and was in PDP even during the war.

Lol @ OBJ wartime PDP traits

Teaching ke?
The Aso rock chair is there for his taking naa

The morals of all these stories!
None of those whose prosecuted the war from both sides are innocent.
None of them are saints.
And all of them have blood on their hands!
So, I wonder why we keep worshipping these men as gods?

Please, what is the title of this book and is it out already?
I need a copy

He murdered three people and called it a mistake?
Well, he should be mistakenly forced to kneel with his hands tied behind his back, while a pistol is mistakenly shoved into the back of his skull. A mistake of an executioner should mistakenly pull the trigger!
I'm sure, globs of his brain will mistakenly splatter on the floor which is a fitting closure for such a mistake of man!

Abeg, give me orange make I lick!

Make our pastors no break our ribs o

One word - FEAR!

The Egyptian 2nd revolution has just set a new precedence just like the Tunisian flagged off the domino effect in the arab world.
What happened yesterday will embolden the opposition in Turkey, Iraq and other countries that has an autonomous military institutions.
We may yet see another quasi military coup, in turkey very soon, if the opposition and the people decides to go back to the street.

But as for Nigeria, only in our dreams, there are just too many variables and many sellouts, you will be surprised that the leaders of such mass movement, will sell out the people for a juicy post in NNPC!
And we should not forget our love for life, only a very few will be willing to die for such a cause.

Walahi! these boys are badasses!
Respect to them!
They don't make them like these any more!
Wow!
Stuffs heroes are made of!

Higher than Einstein ko ?
Let her put forward her own laws on the mechanism of the universe, then I will take her and her test apologists, seriously!

Smokes and mirrors,

Even, a broken clock is right twice a day!

The running of Nigeria is on autopilot, don't be surprised, the speeding car is running smoothly on the express road, the big question is what happens when it gets to a corner?

Nigeria has been to countless of corners in this present administration, and the car kept on crashing into them and you guys want us to take the chief pilot seriously?
