oga wah am saying is that gals shouldn't waste their time proving their love and playing wifey roles to a small boy that is nt ready to take them to the altar...
they shldn't be wasting their wifey talent on a small boy that knows nothing abt commitment. I can only prove my love 2 u if I see you as serious and committed.

So what is the basis for the man taking the next step, showing he's serious or being committed... Blind validation? The guy shouldn't also waste his time on the lady.

What is she? A trophy at the end of the equation? or a commodity.

Two people must mutually want it to have it. Period.

Doing very well. Even the one at Ajah is also happening so fast.

If it's my state.. Delta state, the story won't be same.

The last time I got to inter-bau round about, that bridge took so long to erect...

Using APC logic.
Change has come to America.
Donald Trumps body language is working.
A new sheriff is in town.
The devil has been chased out of the White House.

I agree with Him .

What is your idea of the truth? Saying what you did not witness? or accepting every news in the media? As a youth, make a decision never to accept anything you are told until u have verified it and can vividly confirm it is what it is...

It is time for young people to be real, logical and scientific in their thinking... I hope we get there one day in this country. Everything is purely sensational to raise dust (they keep using religion, politics, ethnicity to weep up sensations and sentiment - and u keep buying it).

Go and sit down. I insist that when people like you lump APC and PDP together in issue, it means you don't want to say the truth.

You don't need to respond to me because your sentiments is with APC so you see truth from APC perspective.... Your digital prints is there for reference. So don't bring that.. Religious, ethnic... line. It's been demystified.

Most don't work. It's all scam

sure of this? I was almost about to oder.

This election was poor.
I scored it 0/100.
That's If we want to be honest.

lawbabs:
One sided story... What if he was the one snatching away ballot, and was chased? There are always different side to a story... That is why wont take side with any politician... whether na APC or na PDP?

Yeh they killed him and snatched the ballot from him and too it to Abe's house.

When people lump up PDP and APC in an issue, just know they don't want to say the truth.

otokx:
PDP did worse in their own time, the report is even false.

Why do you say it's false.

We know, this is true. They used police, dss, military, Inec officials, and agbero to rig election.

Tomorrow they will accuse pdp and you will cheer them.

Are you not a goat?

Edo state, you see how it's being done?
Not collecting 2k.

If you can not scientifically defend the practice keep quiet. I can scientifically condemn it.

Not all children walk at the same age. Different people reach the milestone at different ages. Some never do. The cause of developmental delay should be sought by a professional.

The child is at risk of infection from earth dwelling microbes including viruses, bacteria and fungi. He may contract tetanus, botilinism, anthrax, , histoplasmosis, cryptosporidium, aspergillosis, pneumococcus, pneumocysticosis and strachybotrys among more than 100 other possibilities.
Among the bacteria let us mention the gram negatives as well as coliforms (bacteria found in human and animal waste)

Many of these have no effective treatment even with modern medicines

He may be exposed to elemental poisoning from man made and natural substances in the soil including radioactive waste, lead, products of degradation of plastics and other compounds, degradation products of insecticides and herbicides, leeched byproducts of industrial processes and mining etc.

Apart from sickness, this child is being subjected to mental and physical abuse by ignorant and/or wicked guardians.

Yet some people come here to defend this barbarism. Shame on you.

Black man. I give you hand o! No wonder we are last in everything that matters

All these stories. Go to that village and see where these children play. I also grew up in the village....If you analyse the places we go to play, you'll say children shouldn't play again. Not this one that is a therapy.

Later they'll say they want free and fair elections.

We all know that the results will move from where it is now to the collation centre. While the one they will later find will be discarded.

With this picture it is clear, the police are involved. Coz if it were militants you know how rough that place will be.

DeLioncourt:
And dyu know what psychological scar you may have left the child with?
Y'all shud consider every implication of an act before executing it. There's a reason such acts are not approved by relevant authorities

What about circumcision. Based on this quote.

I think you should stick to your limited knowledge.

Mr Fayose has consistently played to the gallery and thrown caviar to the general with considerable aplomb, and has in turn become somewhat a darling of a gullible section of the Southwest southeast electorate

Apart from Ekiti, fayose has no followerhip or support from the south west.

You obviously never saw this.

Is this thing durable? Is the receiver strong

If river state people allow rigging to happen it's their cup of tea.

They should resist it with extreme measures. If the don't want to do so... So be it.

Any APC person who wants to ring the election as ngeneukwenu has said should be shot at point blank range.

Anyway partisan police or security agent who don't know what he or she is there FOR, should be shot and their VEHICLES and rifles, burned down.

Anyone who wants to cause any problems at collation center should be stopped by any violent means possible. If the Inec, supports rigging, stop them with extreme violence and burn down the collation center.

Should the military join, you know the code. Do the needful and the hit men will come out to match them gun for gun, bullet for bullet, RPG for RPG.

However do the election peacefully, no rigging, let votes count and let's live peacefully after the election.

Wike said the truth.

HungerBAD:
Classic case of when Lawmakers become bored in Abuja.

Ike Ekweremadu, and his crew are bored and have too much time on their hands, hence they came up with the idea of interfering with the President's power.

These are people elected into offices to help bring succour to their constituents,but what do they do?busy trying to take powers from the President, and forgetting to bring the dividends of democracy to their people.

You are not even intelligent as I thought.

Very silly thread from a silly poster.

If you don't want to be a Christian, don't be a Christian, don't come and make mockery of yourself on nairaland. Choose you who you want to serve and live by the principles.

In occultism you wouldn't do what you are doing, you'll follow it deeply and through. Coming online to display hypocrisy is disgusting and it is done through the spirit of the anti christ.

You need to be saved. There's no in between. Who do you think would be happy with this your thread, God or the devil. Be the judge.

No sir!
While serving in Gokana some 3 yrs ago, our rain water was always the same thing; black like charcoal. The truth is, govt really neglected PHC and the Avengers actually brought the doomsday closer to the city more. However, what we need now is to collectively rally round PHC and drop the Afonja, Igbos toga. Its time to save Port Harcourt City!

Stop all these avengers narrative. It reduces it to politics.

Everybody should go with their PVC and guns to vote, everybody go maintain.
Police and the military don't rig for anybody.
As everybody hold em side, if you do anyhow, you go see.

MMM a test case for social security schemes in Nigeria.


Ladies and gentle men, I may not be among the best of writers, but allow me make these points anyway.
I’m not a critic of MMM, I feel I shouldn’t waste my energy on that; but don’t call me a mavrodian. I just want to look at things from another angle.

The present administration of Buhari came into power having promised various social security schemes, such as ; One meal a day per school child, 5,000 naira for unemployed youths, stipends for the old and many more. A lot of Nigerians were excited about it and voted for Buhari as president. Although, the government claims they don’t have funds to make good their promises, some of us had always looked at the politics of the idea and the Nigeria mentality with things like this. The Nigerian mentality is my concern.

Let’s look at social security. It’s referred to as programs by government and organizations to promote the welfare of people through assistance that promotes their wellbeing. Personally, social security schemes equals free money spent on others especially the vulnerable.

Back to the issue, Buhari’s government is presently dealing with an economy in recession; suddenly a scheme called MMM came up with 30 % ROI for monies ploughed into the system and Nigerians have embraced it despite the risk involved. I like to see it as a type of social security scheme with monies available for vulnerable Nigerians. I’m not interested in the business model for now because that’s not my point.

What I noticed:

Having investigated what is going on, I discovered that the scheme could last for long if Nigerians were modest about it and not greedy. The cycle could indeed go on and on and on.

Firstly, I noticed that Nigerians were out to kill the scheme through trying to make huge profit from it. I discovered Nigerians were putting huge monies into it, to as well withdraw larger sums. This unfortunately is bad for such system.

Secondly, some Nigerians have several accounts they use in other to get entry and referral bonuses; hence further milking the system; To them 30% is nothing, even when they know no bank will give you 30% ROI. Even when there was news of the operators attempt to balance the system with measures to reduce heavy withdrawals this December, especially since it was obvious people were using multiple accounts. Some of the beneficiaries have gone on social media campaign against it. Clearly their relationship with the system was all about milking it and killing it.

Now if MMM was a program being run by the government, this same attitude will play out and kill the system. You wonder why they say policies that work abroad don’t work in Nigeria? Here it is.
Nigerians are quick to tell you about social security schemes abroad and want same here; but will kill it should we attempt it.

This same thing affected the ND amnesty scheme, overseas scholarship schemes; even our Delta state bursary scheme was affected by this attitude right from the time of Ibori to Uduaghan. This is what will kill any social security scheme, be it 5000 naira for the unemployed or feeding for school children or any of them. This attitude is what kills businesses in Nigeria; yet you wonder why Indians and other Asians have their businesses survive while that of Nigerians is in terrible state.

I’m interested in the attitude of Nigerians to things like this. Like they say, attitude is everything and with the attitude of Nigerians with MMM, any social security scheme in Nigeria will fail unless the government is not bothered about the waste of money involved.

Let no one be offended, i just wanted to to look at it from this perspective.

HungerBAD:
Interesting.

I wonder why i even waste my time, either writing in support or against any politician. Look at them?after making us waste our time since last year calling Saraki a traitor, same party and the bigwigs inside are now courting the same saraki.

This makes me and the followers of APC look dumb.

Lesson learnt.

About being dumb, we knew that all along. We just hope at this point, You're evaluating your extreme stance.

Na pillow she put jare.

This is what our police can come up with?

Politics aside, So if someone comes up with this kind of defence for an action and our police is investigating it, will this kind of answer hold water?

Sorry this is not smart enough for a reply from our police HQ.

Taking politics aside.

Long story cut short, a young man made his way into the house of an elderly man and tried to abscond with a Nokia torch phone, #1,000 and a 'quarter-to-die' necklace. He was caught in the act and the people around raised alarm.

A crowd soon gathered and the verbal insults degenerated to a few slaps. But quickly, it turned savage. Some young men who are fond of gathering at a deale'sr to smoke any 'brown powder' in any 'white wrap' soon abandoned their hobby to join the fiasco. The meagre slaps that were considered punishment enough until the police arrived were immediately considered insufficient by the new arrivals.

Soon, planks were up in the air and landed with unrestricted velocity on the suspect's body. These were followed by stones that kept increasing in size as each was thrown. Even the smoke-joint owner gladly offered up her wares for use to mete out 'justice' on the thief.

The few people that were appalled by the sudden aggravation of the beating had to move away from the scene and sought alternatives to secure the suspect from the reach of these 'murder-inclined' arms of the jungle law, while repeating warnings of the possible consequences to the 'beaters' should the suspect give up the ghost. But they were to far gone in their act to think otherwise. As Providence would have it, the police arrived and whisked the suspect away.

My opinion is this: I know some criminals can be inconsiderate, but for that reason, should we lose our human nature? Considering his crime, is it a commensurate punishment; beating him that way? Our laws may have failed and our country, gone awry, but how does that begin to explain deriving joy from seeing our own dying or justify venting our frustrations on our fellow human?

I've never really witnessed lynching in reality but as this is how close I came, I have to admit that it is not 'humans' but an inner 'demon' in human form that carries out such act because those fellows ceased to be understood at that point.

The Government should look into this; and draft a law to take care of 'jungle justice'. It rapes our existence of belief in being humane.

(The above incident happened in Afromedia Estate, Okokomaiko; an area in Ojo L.G.A. of Lagos)

Go and sit down. It is unlawful to be lawful in a lawless society.

Go to ANY Criminal hideout where instant justice( take note of the right word) was carried out and the place where police post is stationed and tell us which one had sanity restored.

We know the APC goons wouldn't want us to fight corruption in cases like this. They will defend corruption with all they have. After all, our president brandished fake certificate for election and they had no reason to object. Bloody hypocrites!

Why would the PDP not want to do this to Ayade, when APC members keep telling the world that the governor elected in PDP belongs to the APC. The governor can't say he doesn't hear these things.

What impression is he giving to those who worked for him in PDP for being their party candidate.

AgbaJalingo and his likes of APC have even come on radio here in Lagos to tell us that he loves the PDP governor and that he'll move to APC some day... We know what that love means. It's simple because of the perceived APC feelings and not because of good governance.

Is that right? The governor is pretending he's not aware of all these.

Let the court do what is right as a precedence is being set here.
