I've seen Things Fall Apart as the Arrows of God didnt spare this A Man of the People. Things may be No Longer at Ease if The Anthills of the Savannah should eat up the body of Achebe. Nonetheless, generations will know that There was A Countryman.
RIP, Achebe...... *sad*

manmustwac: Wrong analogy & its so obvious by yourwrite up that you fall in the category of Mister B. Am I not right?

You're as totally wrong as your comment also is...

MacDaddy01: Fail.

There is evidence that people dream. Scans show brain activities during sleep. Dreams have been studied- REM Sleep, sleep paralysis etc


There is no evidence for your God. Not a shred.


Try a better analogy

ow really? That's an analogy, haven't you ever been to a Literary class? Your comments portrays you as an embittered saddist....

Mr A does not believe that dreams exist because he has never had one before (or perhaps because he has always forgotten them at waking up). But Mr B dream dreams (though occassionally and with no effects), so he believes that although dreams exist but they are not potent. While Mr C who usually has dreams that are effective believes in the existence of dreams and their potency.
Doesn't the above illustration above apply to the atheists (Mr A), the agnostic (Mr B), and the believers (Mr C)?

Congrats, sister! You are a pride to the country. But how do Nigeria take hold of these bests lest some so called super power grab them from us.
And for those whose ears or skin are pinged for the name combination. I sku in Ondo and know what queer names they bear cos they are a multitribal people: Ondo is composed of all sorts of tribes, evn their Yoruba sounds out of place. Could you ever Take someone bears Ekpetuku Taiwo as a Yoruba? Those names are common there.
Nonetheless it's no ethnic achievement, it's a national honour for us all. Hurray In Love And Honesty To Grow...

Does that mean we've got a kind of HERMAPHRODITEOUS-ANDROGYNOUS ASEXUAL APE around here in Naija?
Trust Abati himself, isn't he a man of the word (a journalist)? He'll coin a new word to modify and qualify Barr Kay.
I love March, things go fummy. Naija no dey dull at all!!!!!

The land is full of fictions, or is it really real?

Mr Ogaze, my Drama lecturer is fond of saying:
You laugh with the comic actor, not at him/her. You might as well be in their position.
Stop this messy joke around here please, at least for the sake of the innocent children of the man.
I should believe it's either a mistake or some repercussion. For I heard the man is an alumnus of UNILAG, LASU and UI.

Great Nigerian Students! Please I need the help of you students and graduates of English. I'd like you to share the list of books that you have used or you are still using that benefit you. Thank you for doing so.

Gboliwe: what is scotting?

I meant 'hostel squatting' - living in a school hostel while you have no permission to do so. (10Q)

Great Nigerian Students!
I'm a student in a higher institution. I'm a fan of anyting that's got fun. 'It's fun to squat', I've usually heard peeps say,; and I'm about to make myself experience of the fun in squatting. I want to give squatting a chance come next session, but the school authority has always promised hell for the squatters (I've not seen them catch or deal with anyone yet, though).
So, I want to know what squatting costs in your school and how you've got on with its fun (if ever it has any, or you've had any).
Need its funny and otherwise part....

Ẹjẹ́ lọ fi ẹṣẹ ilé tọ ọ. Go by the way of African trado-medical healing. Or are there no herbalists in the UK.
A Queen in a King's hospital, how logical? Better bring her over to UCH or LUTH here over in Naija.

It's a great feat the boy has achieved and at such a tender age! The way Nigerian Children soar excellently high these days is just supra-natural. And such kids are almost always from private schools. The government should please make a better do for our public schools -I'm sure the boy woulnt have performed such a deed if he were a public school student. Stop killing the talents in these Kids.;(;(
And for the jealous-minded, all-mouth-no-nothing guys here, are you even able to switch on a black-and-white tv set when you were at his age? Honour to whoever deserves it

After putting the students (and I'm one of them) into 2 or more weeks of suspense, our great great school now releases the school fees for the 2012/2013 Academic Session. We've thought the fees were going to be unbearable, especially considering how the value-added Provost, Prof Idowu, works endlessly for the betterment of the school (you've got to come and take a look to really know what I'm talking about).
Now, here is the list for the school fees - for both Fresh and Returning 'Arbicans' (that's what ACE students are called).

It marvelled me when I read the portion of the Scriptures that narrates how Isaac blessed his sons before he died. This very part shows us that Isaac had foreseen his deathday which then prompted him to praying for his children before dying. I think Abraham did something near that: he found a wife for Isaac before he died. And such similar issues occur and recur in the Bible.
While growing up in the village, I used to hear such stories as well; when an old, dying parent would call their children and share a word of prayers with them because they knew they would soon die. Infact, some died just after they had finished the prayers.
But nowadays, I don't think such thing still happens -- or it may be that I am only assuming it does not. Please have you witnessed or heard of such experience just of recent?
Just curious to know...
