Forgive and move on with your life.

Yeah, it's 'hip' to be a teen mom in America, because it is glamorized in the media. In Nigeria, those girls future probably would have come to a standstill, because of the risk of being expelled from high school. But who am I to cast the first stone?

Very debatable topic and I dont know if it is approved or condemned in the Holy Bible. Some people's interpretation is that the Bible advocates moderation in the consumption of alcohol, while others claim that the Holy Bible completely disapproves of it. I dont know, my Church does not endorse it, and quite frankly, I tend to stay away from it, though at times, I have a desire to drink wine.

Nke kwene nwed ke the 80's. Ufan mfo akere die?

My2cents,

While my palate varies day by day, Ekpankukwo Iwa (Cassava) with periwinkle and palm oil is my all time favorite. I miss it!

Anything western culture particularly from American and Europe is wildly embraced by some Nigerian youths.

May God bless you in the Name of Jesus Christ for your right answer@Orimili

If your marriage was solemnized by the Pastor of the Church and documented in writing in front of other witnesses, then you are LEGALLY married. Dont let anybody strip you of your legal status.

Family, friends, certain parts of the culture, the weather. I mean, the qualities are innumerable. If two friendly Nigerians meet each other, even if their background is different, there is always that similiarity and connection. I don't know how to explain it, but simply put it, I will always remain a Nigerian at heart. Riding tires, bathing outside in the rain, family members visiting, life in the village.

Very sad and heartbreaking. It can happen to anybody. Maybe that boy was from a comfortable home, but lost his parents.

We can all make a difference in their lives.

Which kain question be all this?

Nope!

xiomera, what you wrote is crass!

I think Elijah and Enoch died, even though speculations abound that they may be alive, and would play an active role in the end times. It's even believed that they are the Two Witnesses, mentioned in the Holy Bible.

The above link attempts to explain that Enoch and Elijah died.

@Tchisina, I wont put on airs about the USA or anything, when I was in Dallas three years ago, I was dismayed by the shape of the freeway, that I took my cousin to task over it. He repeated the incident once again when I was in Maryland recently, on how I quaved their freeway. From what I could remember about the freeway in Dallas and from what I have now seen, the Ozumba Mbadiwe road beats Dallas hands down. And it would beat some other freeways in the USA, at least for its cleanliness.

there is money to be made in nursing and the length of study even for the CNA classes can be over in at least six gruelling weeks. I understand their pay ranges from 15-18. Now, if you are an LPN, you can command upto 25 dollars upwards. In California, there are some people who work 3 and 4 days on a twelve hour shift. And then, the remaining days, put their services 'on call'. Now, when you are 'on call', you get paid double (I think throughout that week) even if your services are not needed that week.

One of the local papers in my area featured an RN who makes about 60 dollars an hour. Has a big house in Nevada, but commutes out here, because of the pay. She expressed her desire to work here because of the double pay she accumulates from being 'on call' which is 120 dollars an hour. In her residential city in Nevada, "on call nurses" dont get paid double.

So, that should explain why some Africans get into nursing. Another beauty of it is the relative job security in the field.

If there is any dream that I desire most, it is to live a life that brings Glory and Honor to my Creator, Jesus Christ of Nazareth!

But I am not kidding@Tchisina, check out the scenery in the pictures, the paved road, the traffic signs. It's encouraging to display them to an outsider, at least to educate them that all is not rough and tumble in Nigeria. Infact, the road better pass some freeways in America.

Very impressed. The Ozumba Mbadiwe road looks like a picture taken from one of the freeways in the USA.

Obama's nomination is history in the making!

MADRID, Spain - Spanish twins who were separated at birth through a hospital error — then reunited as adults through a fluke — are suing for millions in damages, as is a third woman who grew up thinking, erroneously, that she was one of the twins, a lawyer said Tuesday.

ADVERTISEMENT

The real twins finally met each other in 2001. The case has been working its way through the courts since 2004. A decision is expected soon on whether the three women deserve damages, said Sebastian Socorro Perdomo, a lawyer for one of the twins.

He would not release the names of any of the women, who are all 35 years old.

Socorro Perdomo said in an interview that his client is seeking $4.7 million from the government of the Canary Islands, where the error occurred in 1973 in the city of Las Palmas. The other two women are also suing, he said.

He said his client was taken out of her crib as her twin sister lay in one right next to her, mistakenly replaced by another baby girl, and ultimately raised by the family of that child.

The other two girls were brought up in the mistaken belief they were twin sisters.

"It does not take a lot of effort to put yourself in the position of any of these people in order to understand the damage that has been done," Socorro Perdomo said.

Of the three, he said his client — taken away from her twin sister and real family — is the most devastated. "Since this discovery, her world has turned a bit upside down," he said.

"The first right of any child is the right to their own personal and family identity," he said. "In this case, that right has been violated."

The error emerged a generation later, through a chance encounter at a clothing store in Las Palmas.

A friend of Socorro Perdomo's client worked in the shop. When a woman who was the spitting image of that client came in and failed to recognize the employee, the clerk was dumbfounded.

When the dead ringer came by the store a second time, the clerk began to put two and two together and arranged for the women to meet.

DNA tests proved they were identical twins, the lawyer said.

You live in England. Please listen to Royal speech. If the Queen can use Plural for herself, I wonder why you are constriction God who created the Queen from her father and mother from being able to use that Royal plural for Himself?


Ndipe's comment:

That you are even equating the Word of God with the speech of the monarch of England proves that there is really no point in debating with you.

May God give me the Grace to never ever compromise His Religion in the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen
