So is it her fault? Or the fault of those guys with "oju kokoro" who are in a relationship but behave as if they are single and searching?

Why is anybody happy that CBN has weakened Naira? Don't we want it to strengthen?
But whatever, 307 is nowhere near what people are able to get it for on the streets or in the banks.

And there's a commenter saying only Biafra can save us... the police officer... high chance the guy is from Biafra...

You know, if charm could stop bullets, Benin Kingdom would have not fallen to the British Empire.
But no worries, let all these cult boys test charm and die.

Gateman... or... "gate" man?

Well, compared to the 93 year old ex-president, and 75 year old president, this 68 year old is a relative youth!

Thanks, Nigerian government, for never supporting our entertainment industry, yet "congratulating" and "appreciating" when they've achieved success in spite of all the ways you frustrate them.

This is a warning to other teams, DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE "FEARLESS" SUPER EAGLES come Russia 2018..Give us Germany, Brazil we dont care..

Where's that meme of lion roaring on internet, but cat cowering in real life?

All this overconfidence is our undoing... the players will be feeling like they got an easy-to-beat group, then they will lose focus.

Just practice and become a fluid team, and concentrate on scoring without theatrics.

Yeouch! But there's good news here:

1. they can afford to pay staff 5 months salaries, so they're not hurting for cash
2. they moved to prepay, which means they've achieved a major milestone.

The prepay model is what they needed to do anyway, but had to do pay on delivery to earn trust and make Nigerians aware of them. Switching means they've accomplished a major hurdle in winning mind share

There's a revenue drop now, as they switch models, and will need to shed weight to survive in 2018 as the marketplace adjusts, but I foresee business picking up by 2019 (helped by 2018 holiday shopping), following a marketing campaign in 2018.

Pidginwhisper:
For Naija travellers wey dey always think say life start and end for Accra, una no sabi anything. Enter kumasi, Takoradi,then you fit come back come talk better.

Na same way foreigners wey land for lekki/VictoriaIsland area for lagos or some areas for abuja for dem first tym for naija go dey hype Naija as dem never reach Okokomaiko,idumota for lasgidi and Kubwa and Co respectively for abuja.


Bottom line, if naija don tire you abeg port go ghana and stop the nonsense comparison wey no hold water wey u dey do

Heh heh... true... but most people who visit US, UK, Dubai, Mexico, Brazil, Italy don't go to the equivalents of Okomaiko or Kubwa. So it's a fair comparison to only visit the tourist areas and write about it.

Which is why every woman should have something doing (even if it's selling provisions), and quietly stack some chips away in case of incasity.

Yes, he must. Anybody else will simply make Buhari's re-election a certainty. At least with another Northerner (ideally from Katsina too, though I don't see any viable candidates), the Northern vote will be divided, and the Southern vote will decide against Buhari.

How I wish one young, progressive candidate will rise up and stand for election. When are the voters under 50 going to assert themselves and vote out people born when Nigeria was still a British colony?

I'm from Delta BTW

HBD ma.

Let me say though that this is the trouble with social media... small small and before you know it you have to celebrate and congratulate everyone publicly every 15 minutes. The day you don't, the enemies of progress will start looking for divisions and fanning flames.

If it were me, I won't put anything on social media, so there's nothing for people to chew on and spit out.

In other news... maybe it's time I bought stock in bleaching cream companies... will all this market I'm seeing.
*runs out of thread*

possiblen:
radio biafra didn't say anything like that don't come here and display ur ignorance so people take joy in disgracing themselves in public

Not sure which version to believe... but there's obviously some intrigue and damage control. Until Kanu resurfaces and says he is in charge, it's fair to say he is not in control at the moment

rusher14:
And the simpleton with a mic has run off never to be heard from again.

And according to accusations on Radio Biafra... the rogue managed to defraud them too... probably now counting his money in the safety of some hamlet in England.

There was a lot of words spoken but very little actually said. What are they planning to do?

Threebear:
She's better than most women, at least she respected herself and wore that colour.
I know some olosho's that their sex life can fill the pages of a note book, that still wore white to their wedding.

Sounds like you're subtly throwing some shade her way... wetin consine color of dress and her history?

So after experiencing the bad side of politics, conflict, everyday events, disasters, poverty, you want me to on radio and listen to the same things? How many songs in my lifetime will remind me about lack of water and light, and how the poor are getting poorer. From 70's & 80's Fela to 80's Majek to 90's Ras Kimono to 2000s Rugged and African China? E don do.

Abeg, listening to songs about love, women, and money are the only things that make sense and make me happy. At least that "Too much juice" can make somebody relax and forget about hardship for a while.

It's shallow, but I that's my explanation.

Sapphire86:
I hope their union lasts because internet never forgets.

I don't want to hear 'pls respect our privacy in this difficult time' because they didn't respect my privacy now oooo

Too true... I so hate that phrase, after they put all their business on social media.

So this is a list of the losers in the struggles for power... the winners are never called "coup plotter", but instead "head of state", "chief of army staff", "governor", and so on. But for a mix of luck, planning, and support from outside, Nzeogwu, Ojukwu, Ademoyega, Murtala, OBJ, PMB, IBB, ABC, etc. would have ended up just like everyone else here: tied to a stake and dispatched with prejudice.

You know the real reason the officer was arrested? He collected money without paying the DPO his tithe. Oh yes, DPO collects 50%-70% tithe on all offerings.

I can just see it now... I need to on my gen to charge my electric car. What a country. Even in the time of horse-drawn carriage, I'm sure we would not have enough grass for the horses to eat or water to drink and there would be long queues to feed the horse. Even now, aren't we planning to (or have already) import grass from Brazil. Mtcheew

Yes oh! Really happy for Zimbabweans, proud of their army for remaining professional and showing the dictator the way out without yielding to the temptation to seize power. Anybody with sit-tight ambitions knows that that time has past. From Gambia to Libya, to Ivory Coast to Zimbabwe.

Coming from Mercy who is normally so sweet and gentle... the guy should just do as requested and masticate some poaceae

At first I was like, N156k... that's not bad. It's an ok price for a wedding ring, but why is it on front page?

Then I got more confused as I continued reading then it dawned on me that we're talking $156k. As in money to build a very decent house, with boys quarters and swimming pool. Even have left over to buy two decent cars.

I don't know that I could be ever comfortable with sinking that kind of money in something so small. At least house, I know it won't suddenly lost inside toilet or be dragged off in traffic.

Wait... makeup free... as in the makeup was done for free?

Or you mean the makeup was mostly natural tones and some blonde?

Because if that's what you call makeup-free, I'd hate to see what you call makeup.

Anyways, Toke looking nice... please use ur money and build school or some sewing small factory, ehn... Bags no dey too last.

I'd say it's evolutionary... have you seen a male bird give gifts to his parents? No... but he brings gifts to the potential lady he's trying to make more little birds with... why argue against nature?

But seriously, the lady was right to call it off... is this the kind of crap she would have to deal with the rest of her life? For what?

You know Naija weddings... it's not about the bride and groom. It's about the families. You think both mothers could be convinced to have a small wedding? What will their peers say?

I'm sure as they were saying they want small affairs, the parents and aunts were like "smh... see this one. Anyway, Bola, we should add another 20 bags of rice to the 400 we bought last week."

noskcid:
Haba, you call fela's lifestyle a fulfilled life?
Just tell me one of his character that's worth emulating?
Is like you have not seen some of his daughters in Allen avenue
That's where seun kuti lives

He wasn't a hypocrite. That's one character worth emulating.

You know Allen avenue (and many others around the world, including the online ones) is filled with the daughters of pastors, teachers, ne'erdowells, businessmen, farmers, mechanics and lawyers. Why call out Fela's daughters as if its unique to his character?

veekid:
Something #50 condom could have avoid

Look at it this way... blue pali.

WotzupNG:
Wizkid is the new Fela.

Someone should tell him that it's AIDS that killed Abami Eda

But the great one lived a very fulfilled life. What joy is there to live till 100 if you don't spend it really living and enjoying all what life has to offer?
