This is where we the future of Nigeria must begin to differ. What is wrong,IS WRONG !!

Once rigging becomes the norm ,it has a domino effect ,in that the 'elected' officials owe no allegiance to the electorate & they can stieal themselves silly,guaranteed they'll 'win' re-election.

We MUST begin to stand for what is true & return the power to the ballot.

But ,just like the Holy Bible states it succintly. . . . . . . . . . . . it may only come by FORCE !(Matt 11:12)

seconded, adopted and recorded. articulate and well said

This is a gospel we must insist on at all times. with this message in the unconscious membrame of the average nigerian, the promised land is a few meters away.

RedHotChic:
That means that Bush must have used some stimulants to lure them beside the gutters. It also means that non of us is safe from that gutter epidemic. That guy is smart.

Seriously tho, did you notice that 90% of strange illnesses in Naija emanate from the north. activities like gutter sniffing may be a probable explanation. Who knows when they started this act? Probably 20 years old.

@Toks2008,

Fani-Kayode’s diagnosed is a 100% true in my opinion. However, his admission is not out of sincerity, but it is a stylish ploy just to send Nigerians on a wild goose chase and divert attention from his thieving stint as head of that sector.

Saying people belong to the occult in Nigeria is no longer news, when one considers the fact that the top Echelon of the Executive, Legislature, Judiciary, Pubic Service, law Enforcement and the Private Sector is occupied mostly by Men and Women deeply entrenched in the occult.

May God Help Nigeria!

u r definitely right. . . . . . . . . ,

Saharareporters has reliably gathered that Yar'adua personally instructed that the minister of health case be “given maximum escalation” because of the involvement of Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello, daughter of former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

I hope this is not true.

@ kobo
your first illustration in ur former post was intelligently said and well expressed ur point of view. It however refuses to adress the issue in this context. Somehow I wish u could use real life scenarios, like how china or saudi arabia copied from the west.

but think about it. MR A and B both have a farmland. If you begin to look at What [/b]needs to be done and not[b] How [/b]it is done, then u will appreciate my argument that the western way of doing things is not ours. what both Mr A and B needs to get done, is to get their farmlands cultivatable for farming and then the eventual farming which will lead to harvest.
If according to u, MrA has devised a hoe to suit his righthandedness, must MrB apply the same approach since he is left handed? cant he invent a cutlass? must he use a hoe?

my argument is butressed by reality. the [b]what to be done in this case is to develop ur country and ameliorate the living conditions of the people and bringing millions out of poverty. this is the target of every nation on earth, wether they r workin towards it or not is anoda issue.

but the how is the approach and everyone is doing it differently. a cutlass does not work for everybody. capitalism does not work for everyone neither does socialism, communism or social or welfarist democracy. but u can easily pick a developed country from each of this categories. So while everyone admired the hoe MrA used, some however used a cutlass, others a tractor, others went manual all in effrot to achieve an aim. They were more bothered with WHAT needs to be done.
Applying western ideas on a copy and paste basis is intellectual laziness and should not be encouraged. Solutions are reflections of problems and no two international problems are the same no matter how similar they seem.

and YES I read Reuben Abati's article. I must confess that he is my favourite nigerian colomnist.

however, I do not share ur sentiments about his article. The world is beautiful and intreasting because of the diverse things everyone has to offer. If we all do offer the same things, then the world will be monopolitic and boring an example is nairaland. If every contributor were to be intelligent, it would really be a boring place.
china , dubai, cuba, mexico and canada are also part of the world. so also is switzerland. but all have have a different approach to different things and are leading members of the international community.
Reuben's mesage is a condemnation of the nigerian attitude. which I whole heartedly agree with. We Nigerians are terrible people.
Thats however an issue for another day.

reuben got it all . . . . , . . our attitude as a people is bad.

Eclairs:
Wish I had something better to contribute to this thread,

The men are there but the truth is that girls sometimes could allow their pride get the better of them and so, before they realise it, it's getting late.

seconded

and i will like to add that the rate of bad grls out there with an alien mentality is just too alarming.
women have turned this world upside down. commitmnt to men now look like a death warrant.

This must be some form of a joke.

and why did u put ur number here?

Seun:
If they had been aborted at an early stage, they would not "feel" anything about anything.

that way they have been denied a right to live. to a future and a destiny.
put urself in that scenario, that way there would have been no NAIRALAND

seun, abortion is unjustifiable.

Gbosko:
A report curled from THISDAY ONLINE reads - "Nigeria’s nuclear programme is causing concern among the world’s Group of Eight (G8) nations, THISDAY has learnt.
The G8 – comprising world’s most industrialised democracies, the United States (US), United Kingdom (UK), Japan, Russia, Italy, France, Germany and Canada – is worried about Nigeria’s ability to handle the safety and security obligations associated with use of nuclear technology."

This brings to my mind the many examples of failed projects in Nigeria e.g Ajaokuta Steel company, petroleum refineries, health services, PHCN, state water boards, education system, public governance, law enforcement, poverty alleviation schemes, rural development programme, road maintenance agencies, electioneering system, to mention but a few.
[b]I couldn't help wondering aloud that the G8 need not bother itself. The fantasy Nigerian Nuclear programme will die a Nigerian natural death just like every single thing ever initiated by the abysmally corrupt Nigerian system. [/b]What's your take on this?

LOL. . . . . . . . . .

Mustay:
"A 100% of those who suppport abortion are thopse who are already born."

chai. . . . . . . very thoughtful. . . . . . i wonder how they would feel if they had been aborted away. . . . .

Soin:
I haven't read so many ridiculous posts as I just did right now. I wonder how abortion equals murder. One cannot abort after a certain amount of weeks. Until then, the fetus isn't human.

If your God is so 'forgiving and loving' why the hell can't he forgive abortion? Contradiction much? Damn, God must be a whining bitch.

uhhhh

lady bam:
ok,now i think your speaking for yourself and definitely not the majority i mention


the 99%?

he is speaking on behalf of all men.

grls can lie. . . . . . . . . . . .

onyinye2:
taking a woman for a swim is not romantic. any guy could have done that. but if he had his own [b]private pool [/b]and decorated lighted candles around the perimeter and then had rose petals floating on the pool. and then maybe it would be romantic.

this is called GOLD DIGGING

seyibrown:
Abortion is murder no matter the circumstances that led to it. GOD FORGIVES!

well said

[quote author=blue-sky link=topic=146333.msg2437607#msg2437607 date=1214775250]Its not about just earning money, if the guy has no ambition to be successful in life, then theres no way i would be with him. Unless the guy is a student then having no income is absolutely a no-no. And yes, it is usually the guy with no money who is making the most noise, if the guy spent more time trying to build a career than he did trying to chase women then maybe he would be earning something for himself.

And, no, women who want men to have money are not liabilities. If i am going to be earning money and hopefully successful, then why should my partner be anything less[/quote]most women share these opinion, . . . . . . . but ??
