Na this kind person dey make man erection disappear.
See as she be like Michelin Tire mascot

LWKMD!!!!

Chai... OP you wicked oh!!!

Now if only I can unsee this...

He met her, and she sucked...

Eyahhh... see how this girl's plans just scatter because of a poke-nose friend.

It's not because of indomie... there must be a long history of things the injured sister did to the other. After a long time of taking it, I suppose the sister just blew up. Well, after returning from hospital, she will know to mind her tongue

Gbam!!! Prostitution LTD.

gbosaa:
You are not far from the truth. Her advert says “for all your sexual needs”. That shows that whatever is your fantasy, she would give you a very positive experience...whether it’s dubai poti, chains and blind folds, candle wax, flogging, slapping, pinching and biting...she dey kampe.

I won’t surprised if all those police men, military and hisbah agents who harass ashie joints visit her so she’d sit on their faces for hours...she gets paid and the fools go home to their wives verrry happy.

Erm, she's a sex therapist, as in gives advice and markets products. She is specifically not a prostitute. I don't care either way, but it helps to be accurate in one's understanding.

brightisodje:
Bleep the hell out from here will this solve the hardship in nija

Yes it can... if more people like her provide employment: people were paid to build this building... people are being paid to consult... people are being paid to cultivate and harvest the fruits she's using, as are her production staff...
She has taken her ideas and - in the process of becoming wealthy - has employed and improved the life of several Nigerians. What more can one ask?

gbagyiza:
So, u think if the children grow up n got to know that their mother cheated on their dad, they will want to be with her?

Yes. Same as children who grow up knowing that dad cheated on mom. It won't be the most comfortable thing, but at least they will want to see their mother.

Childish... a matter that he could have resolved the first time he knew about it, it has now escalated to poisoning the children's minds against the mother, and this will last for the rest of their lives.

OK, so you took children abroad without mother... you will find another who will mistreat them, and they too will begin to doubt their self worth.
All in the name of revenge.

How will EFCC investigate Tinubu when our commander-in-chief openly endorses known criminals for second terms? Saint PMB is not in the habit of biting the hands that feed him.

In Nigeria, justice is blind, but she can hear the sound of Naira notes being counted.

ednut1:
If Jazz was real how was oyinbo able to conquer us easily. An army of about 100 soldiers destroyed thr great benin kingdom. Why the god no help them

Because the oyinbo people have better babalawo

I'm kidding. You're absolutely right... instead of learning what makes oyinbo societies great, a lot of us are still practicing mumbo jumbo.

All those charms... and he's still riding okada?
If instead of giving all his money to babalawo, he'd spent the money wisely, he might have something more substantial.

But I suppose people prefer undeserved favor, whether it's from Ifa or Yahweh.

Lagos rats learnt how to fight from agberos.

I would not have stoned them either (because it was funny), but her reason for not stoning them, because they may be supernatural... chai.

Bluffly:
Has any research degree being beneficial to us as a country? The answer is no. I don't even rep naija research degree as mist will be filled with plagiarism of over 50%.

Actually yes, there is a lot of research going on in Nigeria in the fields of animal husbandry, agriculture, health, herbal medicines, social science, space research, applied technology, metallurgy, and so on. There are agencies and universities with active researchers who publish their findings in peer-review, international journals (meaning plagiarized work rarely makes is past the review process), travel worldwide to present at conferences, and actually produce products from their research. Unfortunately, budgets are thin, and support from government (though present), is far too little to make serious impact.

We are not where we should be, but there's a lot on ground. Also don't forget, a lot of our Phds end up leaving Nigeria and get accepted to institutions abroad. They would not be able to unless they were of high caliber, so please don't discount them.

Congratulations Dr. Helen Paul.

I was expecting one technological feat while opening this thread only for me to see rubbish

So we should celebrate and applaud EFCC for using Skype.... Skype wey boys dey take talk to agents for China

IdreamOfUnicorn:
Nice one, but what happened to his own country

amaniro:
If he had built it in Northern Nigeria the east will say why didn't he do it in the East.

Abi now... not to talk of Nigerian factor where the building will cost 4x to build; sharp sand will be missing; he will pay twice for the same land; lands and survey will ask for "pen fee", LGA and area boys will collect "development fee"; his uncles will frustrate him and be talking "make I manage am for you", and village people will be plotting how to make it fail.

bionixs:
so the churches are now your problem. No one has come to complain about the rate at which strippers night clubs are spiringing up and many drinking joints fast being converted into brothels and strippers night clubs in your area and beyound,here in lagos or are you not seeing them? Throwing punches and gabs at the church is now in vogue and you are you have join the trend. whom the devil wants to destroy, the first makes to ridicule the church of Jesus Christ.

I think it's an insult to Church to claim that these kinds of charlatan churches have anything to do with Jesus Christ.

Richdad50:
When you have different shops in a plaza and have different offices in a building, who complains? The attack on the church is a suffocation of hope. If you drag the church down the lane of rage and verbal insolence, you will only end up taking away solace and hope from the lives of people. Moreso, it will be worse in a country whose government have little or no offer of hope for its citizens.

Richdad

Because businesses are productive and employ people... which tends to lift societies out of poverty.

Churches on the other hand (as implemented in Nigeria), suck value from people; benefit only the pastor and a very tiny circle; and keep people poor, while offering false hopes of a better life by undeserved favor, instead of encouraging diligent work.

I won't complain about 7 shoe-making factories in the same building, but you bet I will complain about 7 Ponzi schemes, sorry, churches, in the same building.

This woman should be honored on our currency... she saved so many lives in this country. Every time I take medicine or give to my loved ones, my mind swells with pride that we can trust NAFDAC because of her efforts to revolutionize food and drugs administration.

What's more, she showed that it's possible for a Nigerian government agency to truly care about people and execute their mandate without partiality, even in the face of death threats.

There are still people out there tying to gain easy money with fake food and drugs, but she made a lasting impression; and I always pray that subsequent DGs will continue to strengthen NAFDAC.

Mama Dora... your legacy lives on. It's a bitter irony that you died so early (which I'm still suspecting) after saving so many. But in the end, it's not the length of life, but what you do with it.

1. OP, does the language sound like French to you, or more like Spanish?
2. The flag on the police/armed force arm band is of the Dominican Republic.
3. There are no land-boarders with France that isn't already in the EU, so the car would have had to evade customs in Spain/Portugal before getting to France.

Anyways, these are likely/obviously Hatians trying to enter Dominican Republic.

Cap in hand for a job in PMB's cabinet. I hear rats are coming back..., or is it that grass is growing again?

hsafarms:
Dj Cuppy is a Yoruba girl...
We Hausa and Yoruba always work hard to make Nigeria proud..
We don't do OLOSHO
We don't do DRUGS
We don't do CRIMES
We are religious genuinely and not for business purposes
Igbo amaka people, make una change ooooo

This comment is so funny... every single corner of Nigeria has full representation in the list you posted above.

Let's say no to tribalism and embrace ourselves warts and all.

I'm happy for Cuppy... she's doing her best to make a name for herself, participating in charities, flossing on haters, working on her craft, endorsing endorsements, and basically living her best life.

Kusetic:
Religion still isn't an extenuating circumstance that requires exam times to be adjusted. The moment such a concession is made, what's to stop Christians or satanists from asking for their own concessions. Sets a bad precedence is all I am saying

We have a duty to be fair and equitable to all. Sunday as weekend was established for religious reasons, and it came to include the Jewish Sabbath (Saturday), also for religious reasons because of the populations of Europe and Americas that demanded for it. The natural question for some people is "Why is Friday also not included for religious reasons?", and I think it's a fair question to ponder with seriousness.

Religion can be an extenuating circumstance for those who take it seriously, and it behooves all of us, to take all of us, seriously. (not a typo)

"In 1908, the first five-day workweek in the United States was instituted by a New England cotton mill so that Jewish workers would not have to work on the Sabbath from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday.[9] In 1926, Henry Ford began shutting down his automotive factories for all of Saturday and Sunday. In 1929, the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America Union was the first union to demand and receive a five-day workweek. The rest of the United States slowly followed, but it was not until 1940, when a provision of the 1938 Fair Labor Standards Act mandating a maximum 40-hour workweek went into effect, that the two-day weekend was adopted nationwide.[9]" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workweek_and_weekend

So I don't fully understand your position that religion is not an extenuating circumstance, since there have been provisions made over millennia - and indeed the last century - for religion.

Bro please do you know that waec is west africa... and the time table cant be changed by nigeria alone.....chad (predominantly muslims) write these exams no complain....Senegal (90% muslim write this exam exact same time) no complain, Niger(95% muslim) write these exams no complain one MUMURIC some where is crying.....Has the SULTAN complained NO....I tire ooo

Just because people don't complain does not make it right. Historically, change has happened because of a very small number of people who didn't like the status quo and thought we could do better - the vast majority of us would rather just go along with things.

Kusetic:
Nigeria is a country that was colonised by the English and it is reasonable to believe that we would follow their calendar not Arabs. This isn't a matter of religion, else the northern part of the country being predominantly Muslim should be following the friday, Saturday weekend as you say. Mind you if the reason for the selection of Saturday and Sunday was for religious purposes, we would have only one day weekends, the Sabbath is observed on only one day after all.

Nigeria has been an independent country for almost 60 years comprised of about 48% Christian, 49% Muslim, 2% other, and like every independent country, should come up with solutions that satisfy the plurality of its citizens, with an eye towards equity for all, including very small minorities.

The Northern part was also colonized, remember, and those in charge imposed their will for administrative purposes, so the weekend is the same in both places. The Christian Sabbath (Sunday) was just one day, but over time in the 20th century, the weekend expanded to include the Jewish Sabbath (Saturday). It's not entirely unreasonable to see that perhaps in time, the Muslim Jum'ah (Friday) may also be included, especially in countries with significant populations of Muslims. I would welcome a 3-day weekend, which appears to satisfy every religion and sect.

We can use the remaining 4 days to be productive, as we as humans lean towards a more relaxed, less overworked, society (which was the entire point of taking a break in the first place).

The present-day concept of the "weekend" first arose in the industrial north of Britain in the early part of the nineteenth century.[1] The Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America Union was the first to successfully demand a five-day work week in 1929. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workweek_and_weekend

So you see, our current notions of 2-day weekends are not written in stone; have been expanded; happen on various days; were adopted by different countries at different times, if at all (Britain in early 1800s, USA almost a century later in 1929; Japan in 1980s, Mexico and Vietnam still on six-day weeks); and even have their origins in Roman traditional rites.

We have to consider our unique situation of having two major religions (rare in the world), and work towards solutions that work for all of us.

R2bees:
Imagine attacking men of God for a living.. He should get ready cos one day God will freeze his life.

I'm not entirely sure we can use the phrase "men of God" to describe these people... there's quite a lot about pastors' behavior that is atypical of a man of God.

Kusetic:
Seems you are misunderstanding something, do these christian events take place on major roads? Yes there is traffic on that road but that is partially as a result of the way people drive as well as bad roads. My gripe is with taking over public roads to use for prayers when there are mosques everywhere. Bottomline is there is no marginalisation of Muslims as you are claiming.

Lagos-Ibadan expressway (is that major enough for you) is shutdown around RCCG camp for hours. Whether it's caused by people directly praying on the roads or by all the traffic congesting the place and parking every which way on their way to pray makes no difference to me. Nuisance is nuisance.

But I don't want to argue... all I'm saying is that we should try to see things from the others' point of view; understand the reasons; and create a lasting solution that is workable to most. I don't think its unreasonable to ask a government agency to be a bit more flexible about scheduling exams around prayer times.

Hoodbilonia:
Bro forget story
If dem flag u down

No go dey speakni know my right..begin quote law,begin shout on top your voice. Last last dem search your phone. See say hangout,fb,yankee nos dey dia.
Hahahahahaha
What u will hear next is move.move.
Wen u get to the station .u can call your lawyer.
Hahahahaha

You said everything I wanted to say... all one can do is keep your papers complete, have all your items (extinguisher, hazard), keep car in good shape, and use 200, 500 to smooth things out. But more than once I nearly lose my temper, but then remember that village people work in mysterious ways.

adanny01:
I come to my brothers house and ask his wife can you prepare this or that for my breakfast. How does that become a command, its a question. Can you prepare?
Even if i say i want this or that, i have to end it with a question can you do it?

Maybe you ask nicely, but the vast majority of inlaws demand and command. The only people I can allow to ask like that are my parents, and even then they know how to ask because they know I can vex. Everybody else, brother, sister, uncle, cousin, aunties (I especially have to be patient with my aunties because na dem raise me, but still)... you better realize that my wife is not your waitress and tread carefully in my house.

adanny01:
Probably you aint married.

If i tell my wife that a certain friend is coming, she goes to the market and cooks the best she can.

She must serve food in the best china available in the house. That's how to treat guest.

Infact, i want them to come tomorrow again as far as I can afford it, let them keep coming. What are friends for?

There is a difference between a visit from a friend, and allowing that friend to become second husband. This friend showed up at 7am to come and start ordering this and that. If the husband had asked for the food, that's one thing... but he can't start making demands on my wife... ask me and I will convey your request to my wife as I see fit. That's the protocol.

Shibaraba:
Husband is weak.....
You can't mess with my nigga o
Nigga wey we don dey street all this days and we probably hustle hard together for you to have a comfortable home you come do am like that
Ill deal with her codedly

My advice for mister husband
Woman wey fit do this one to your friend no go look twice before she lace your food with poison if you do am anything

Japa fast fast.

Agreed... you can't come and start treating my long-term friend like that... it's like you're abusing me too.

But the husband suppose use sense talk to his guy... we're not bachelors anymore and my wife is not for you to be ordering like a waitress.

Kusetic:
As I have said earlier, Sunday is the weekend hence very little work activities which in turn means the chances of exams being fixed on such days very low. However, exams are fixed on Saturdays but you don't hear seventh day Adventists trying to disrupt those exams since that's when their services are held. And you can never compare the magnitude of the nuisance Muslims constitute during Friday prayers, they commandeer roads, not fields or parking lots. That to me is just ridiculous and in the case of emergencies can affect an individual's life or death.

You're obviously ignoring the state of Nigerian roads on Sunday or anytime one big church is holding some event... entire highways are reduced to standstill because of a Christian religious event (I'm looking at you RCCG). Entire neighborhoods are kept awake on Wednesday nights by the sounds of furious praise and worship. All Nigerians and their hyper- (and ironically hypocritical) religious zeal are a nuisance, but everyone agrees to live and let live.

Kusetic:
I think it is fair, changing the standard is what would be unfair as the institution would be seen as favouring some students ahead of others based on religious preferences. Friday is a weekday no matter how it is colored. Does the world stop its activities on Chinese New year? No it doesn't. Let's not start using religion to disrupt academics.

The weekend - as Saturday and Sunday - was chosen for religious reasons by Christian-majority societies long ago; some Muslim-majority countries have designated Friday and Saturday as weekends; so there is obviously precedent for "favouring" some students based on religious preferences. Nigeria is neither majority-Christian, nor is it majority-Muslim, so it has to straddle the line unique to its situation, and not just do things the Christian world does, nor just what the Muslim world does. We can debate secularity and its place in our government, but fact remains that we as a people like to observe religious rites, and accommodations should be made to be inclusive of all.

China stops all activities for about 15 days surrounding the new year... that is unique to it. We're not asking the rest of the world to adopt to Nigeria's situation; we're asking that Nigerians and our government adjust to our situation of having an equal number of citizens of both faiths.

(Funny enough, because of the length of the Chinese new year, Western countries and companies have learned not to plan activities involving China for almost 3 weeks, so you can say that the world stops/postpones some activities because of the Chinese New Year).
