Nice move by the President but I do hope this is not another plot to permit some old souls to remain in power under the umbrella of “no age limit” thus tolerating some retired general to qualify for a presidential ticket. Anyway, in other to move this country forward, we need to do away with old and corrupt politicians and replace them with young vibrant men and vivacious women.

Click like if you were among those that bath with salt and hot water yesterday. Its ok no one will tell its you.

Ok

see Jamb question ooo. Soon y'll start seeing threads like ''How many times do you shit in a day''

*Op correct the typo on your title. Its Do not Dou.

wow astonishing... Thanks op for this info. I'm pretty sure most of us had no idea of the origin of that word.

Thanks for bring this up you really did hit the nail on the head especially on this one.

dasparrow: Can't you see that he is not that bright? He and some of the other self hating Negroid heifers are comparing Nigeria with countries like USA that are over 200 years old and countries in Europe that were never colonized or taken advantage of at any point in their history. That is like comparing an 80 year grandpa to a 2 year old toddler.

.

Anyway, I had stopped arguing with that dushbag. After running a background check on his previous post on NL, I noticed the nigga is a pained bigot. No point wasting my valuable time with such a lost cause.

I honestly don't see any valid reason that lead the state government to demolish private properties. There are better measures to tackle such events rather than destroying properties that could have been used for something beneficial.

Nigerian politicians acting like rascals since 1960.

BadBoy25: photos of the victoria island is often shown on Tv or Lagos documentary . the vast majority of nigeria is shiithole . there are very few nice parts of nigeria where mostly expatriates live and do business . majority takes the vote.

Well you haven't answered my question I'll suggest you read what I posted ones more. Also, you could as well check this site out... www.therichest.com/rich-list/the-10-richest-countries-in-africa/

Now from the title of that link, I assume you know what its all about. Go browse that notice how the author shamelessly presented the supposedly 'Richest Countries In AFRICA. Especially pictures of Ghana, Angola and some others where they were painted like a country yet on stone age.

If not for the usually stereotype, what has pictures of people without cloths(including girls braless) in a forest got to do with a country's economy?

Please visit that link and have a rethink before you come ranting about stuffs you know little or nothing about. Peace!!

BadBoy25: was this picture taken in nigeria or not? was this picture photoshoped when it was published to make nigeria look like a third world country ?
so you expect CNN OR BBC to show pictures of skyscrapers when reporting about that particular place ?

Are you with us or against us? What point are you driving at because am a little bit confused. You from Uncle Sam or you are a wannabe? Not like I care but let put some thing straight. Its either you are blinded by sentiment or brainwashed not to have noticed how your beloved CNN/BBC reports news about Nigerian's growing economy for example and yet would come up with similar photo(s) like what u posted.

Now is that not a stereotype towards Africans?? Since a growing economy means stability, why is it soo hard for those silly reporters to get their heads out of their a*ss for ones and provide good pictures from Ikeja, Abuja or VI? We are not ignorant of our backwardness but but we don't need their stereotype as well.

okparaugo: As in Abia Express tower... lol

On Enugu PH express way..

Is that only what Abia has ? Smh

Those are all I could compile for now...besides I had to sort for other cities you know.

That would be all for now. I will create a separate thread for Abuja and Ikeja. Too many good pics from those cities.

Thanks MOD

As an active user of Google, I noticed that the western media stereotype of African countries has gone beyond CNN and BBC. If you ever tried using Google image for example to search for Nigeria or our African counterparts, you are most likely to see images of poverty, famine, war, corruption, maps and desert and/or forest. All the negative stuffs are all piled up to make us look bad.

Now let’s talk about Brazil, for example. Brazil is poor. There is prostitution. There is horror. There are drugs. But what is the image of Brazil in the world? The image of Brazil in the world is the image of a country that is successful, that is progressive, and that is exciting. The Brazilians themselves have taken the agenda in their own hands to promote it. Same could be said about other South American/Asian countries that are not really doing better than us. The trend of stereotyping Africa as one homogeneous nation has damaged the reputation of countries that are really doing well.

In Africa, we have abdicated our responsibility to drive our own image either consciously or unconsciously and that is why I have decided to collect some good pictures of most cites in Nigeria hoping that with the help of the remarkable traffic on Niaraland and other site I intend to work on, I would atleast make a statement. Enjoy the pictures

ggrin: Soldier ants nko(ijalo)

that one join

Here are some natural remedies using household ingredients to keep them at bay. Ants come into our homes in their search for food. Apart from the obvious advice of covering food, clearing up spillages and having garbage bins with lids here are some natural ways of beating their advance without using any harsh chemicals.

1. BAKING SODA AND POWDERED SUGAR Mix together an equal amount of powdered sugar (also called icing sugar) and baking soda (formally called sodium bicarbonate). Place small amounts against the walls or in other areas where you would not normally walk but where you would normally see the ants. The ants will be attracted to the sugar and will eat some of it and collect more to take home to feed others, so all of them will get their share. Powdered sugar is essential , larger grained sugar will not work. This is because the sugar and baking soda powders are similar in size and, once mixed together, the ants cannot separate the two items, so, as they eat the sugar, they will also ingest the baking soda, which they would otherwise avoid. Once the ants eat the baking soda it will react with the formic acid in their stomachs and cause gas. The bodies of ants are unlike humans and they cannot eliminate gas so it will build up inside and eliminate them.

2. VINEGAR
Classic vinegar is effective in getting rid of ants. Simply spray their entry paths with vinegar and they will be repelled by the strong odor. Include corners, counter tops, sinks and window ledges. Allow the vinegar to dry. Apple cider vinegar can be mixed in equal measures with water and spray as before. This does not kill them but it will stop them returning.
Adding a few capfuls of vinegar to your floor cleaner on tiled floors also helps in keeping them at bay.
A more fragrant option is to mix vinegar, dish detergent and a few drops of peppermint oil. Usually spraying this once around the affected zones should leave these areas ant free for a season.

3. SALT OR PEPPER
Table salt is the one of the best and the cheapest way to get rid of ants. Use ordinary table salt not health boosting Himalayan salt. Simply boil water and add a fairly large amount salt to it, stirring until it is dissolved. Pour into a spray bottle and spray where you usually see the ants.
This also works with cayenne and ground black pepper.

4. SOAP
Regular dishwashing detergents are very harmful to ants. The soap components break down in waxy layers of the pests’ exoskeleton, causing dehydration. Mix soap with water and spray it in the entry points.

5. LEMONS
Lemon juice is the enemy of ants as the acid interferes with their internal tracking capabilities. Either pure lemon juice can be sprayed around the entry points, or mix some fresh lemon juice with water and spray around the affected zones in your kitchen. There are several household products that repel ants as opposed to killing them. By using these at entry points you will create a repelling barrier that they will not cross.

Repel ants by trying one of these, or even a combination your home should be ant free.
