Thank you, thank you, thank you. You've reminded me to post 4 songs that are permanently linked in my mind. I'm not sure which of the songs is my favourite. In fact they are all my favourite. Ishilove, come and listen to great music.

You've also tempted me to post some absolutely wonderful jazz songs, but I'll resist that temptation for now.

Obiano has just been declared the winner of the election.

NTA switches to their correspondent outside his house.

The correspondent is so excited that you would think that he was the one that won the election.

The house is too full so the NTA team can't get in


There are celebratory gunshots.

The governor has just stepped out of the house to speak to the NTA team.
Crime › Re: My Experience With An Atm Swindler by naptu2:
They tried this nonsense on me in 1996.

I noticed that strange people usually approached me to ask for directions to an estate and I knew that the estate did not exist, so I usually ignored them. I guessed that they were fraudsters.

However, I was curious, so one day I decided to stop and listen to them in order to find out what the scam was about.

The first guy approached me and asked for directions to the estate. He had a fake French accent. I told him that I didn't know where the estate was. He said that he came from Ivory Coast to sell goods to a woman that lived in the estate.

The second fraudster appeared on cue. He said that this was a great opportunity for both of us. He said that we could buy the goods off the guy and sell them ourselves because they were very cheap.

I said, "You are not serious" and walked away.

I don't know how I forgot to post this earlier. This song was mixed with Bunny Mack's Let Me Love You on a tape I had. So I wonder why I forgot to post it when I posted Let Me Love You.


I had the extended version on that tape. It had a lovely instrumental section in the middle.

I've just realised that I committed another sin. I ommitted a foreign band in the disco section and a Nigerian group in the boogie section.

Time to rectify that.

I remembered this song while I was listening to Rob Base's Get On The Dancefloor.

This song was partially inspired by Marvin Gaye's Got To Give It Up which I've already posted.

Politics › Photos And Videos Of Today's Route March By Defence Headquarters by naptu2(op): 10:24pm On Nov 18, 2017
I have always (since the 1970s) enjoyed watching soldiers as they perform their regular route march (endurance walk) and physical examination. They are usually accompanied by ambulances (usually Peugeots and Pinzgauers) and men from the medical corp who attend to those that collapse because of exhaustion.


I have always enjoyed their singing and dancing and I particularly enjoy seeing their mascots (camels, etc).


The Defence Headquarters decided to do something different this year. They decided to do a joint route march and participants are drawn from both the military and the civilian services. The exercise is tagged #TogetherWeAre.


Watch as officers and men of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Police, State Security Service, Custom Service, Prison Service, Immigration Service, Civil Defence, Federal Fire Service, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, National Emergency Management Agency and the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission take part in a route march on the streets of Abuja.

The winners of the awards are chosen by the fans who vote online. This led to an intense campaign online.

Various Chelsea Twitter handles campaigned for Victor Moses, the Asisat Oshoala Fans handle campaigned for her, MFM members campaigned for Odunayo Adekuroye and the Dallas Wings basketball team in the US campaigned for Evelyn Akhator.

Odunayo Adekuroye won silver at the 2017 World Wrestling Championships. She has previously won gold at the Commonwealth Games and bronze at the World Championships.

However, she is even more popular for her victory dance.

Here he is (along with Charles Ojugbana) commentating on the famous Miracle of Damman. This was a quarter final match at the 1989 Under 20 World Cup in Saudi Arabia. The match took place on February 25th, 1989. The Soviet Union led Nigeria by four goals to nil with just thirty minutes left, but Nigeria equalised and won the match on penalties.
