This news was released by South Korea... How can we be so sure it's true?... How can we be sure it's not a ploy to gain public support for the war against North Korea? With the kind of deceit we have these days in world politics, it's becoming increasingly difficult for me to completely believe any news I hear. |
Nigeria's problem is more complex than a simple SNC... Any attempt at a national conference will certainly end up in a brawl and the delegates will simply scoop enough allowances b4 going back to continue their usual lives. ![]() |

I was so pissed off with my experience at the Nigerian stand in the carnival last year. After visiting the stand of different countries (mainly Caribbeans) and nodding my head to Caribbean songs and half-nude dancers, i eventually got to the Nigerian stand. There we had DJ jimmy jatt on stage doing his usual but to my utmost dismay, about 80% of the songs played were of American or carribean origin. I had to ask people around to confirm if I was really at the Nigerian stand but most annoying was the fact that the people I asked could not see anything wrong with a Nigerian DJ playing more foreign songs in the Nigerian stand in a cultural carnival. Talk of an identity crisis ![]() |
otokx: Why did they not site the project in the Niger Delta? Is it not from the Niger Delta that the gas will come from?Such pattern of reasoning is unfortunately the reason why majority of meaningful projects in Nigeria hit the rock. Politicians would then happily loot the mobilization fees. Sometimes when we consider the type of government we have, all we need to do is just pray that projects can survive till completion instead of raising dust over contentious issues like these. |
PapaBrowne: I was passing the expressway today and I saw the road dancing azonto. I was astounded. So I stopped and asked it why it was dancing.It took a very deep breathe and and the conversation went thus:These GEJ worshipers na wa... but I must confess, this piece cracked me up ![]() |
Airforce1: End Time Sign ndrule: We've seen beta photoshop dan dz.....u stil nid to work mor on it ULSHERLAN: Exactly tot I was d only one that saw the photo in a shop. Photoshop thingsSigns of end times? ...Photoshop? ![]() Are we so unenlightened in Nigeria to understand that if there can be conjoined twins in humans then it can also occur in animals? |
It doesn't matter if baba is on weed It doesn't matter if baba is senile It doesn't matter if baba is a fool It doesn't matter if baba is a kettle calling the pot black The only thing that matters is that baba has just said a painful truth which we all lament about everyday as Nigerians. The sooner we start focusing our attention on issues instead of people and attacking the message instead of the messenger, the better for our nation. If we read carefully through the report, it would be noted that baba did not even absolve himself of the blame. |
free2ryhme: A young man was yesterday crushed to death by a trailer on the Ore-Benin road. The accident occurred at Kajola in Odigbo Local Government Area of Ondo State.On top as usual... |
Tolexander: na liquid akpu dem dey inject! shineureyes: Is that this pregnant women don't do scan?I've heard of some cases where the female clients of the baby factories know exactly what is going hence they would always discourage a scan even if their husbands insist.. They know they aren't pregnant but just need the baby bump to deceive either their husbands or inlaws. This story is actually strange to me ![]() |
[quote author=Paris-fran]Well well well... selling of babies is a common fad in the East and Rivers State. I have seen it with my own eyes and though i don't like the idea of selling babies, i think it is our society that has pushed them so far. If you see the way "barren women" and girls with "unwanted pregnancies" are treated in those parts of the countries, you will understand the true meaning of demand, supply and middle men in Economics. I pray something sincere happens in this country sha, cus apparently Religion isnt really helping us. God bless us all.[/quote]You are absolutely right. Stigmatization against barren women and also, stigmatization against unmarried mothers is so bad in that part of the country that the economic forces of demand and supply have inevitably taken precedence. |
This is bloody massive.. how did the fire spread so far?.. was the building made with vitafoam mattresses? |
Song and video aren't impressive... only thing I liked was the facial expression of the barman. |
riskit33: @OP normally when someone puts up a topic he gives a total breakdown/account of the story so anyone reading can easily assimilate the gist. However, your posts up there are pieces of fragmented and disjointed information that's difficult for one to easily sense of except he/she has been following the original story directly from CNN. Please this type of narration is not worthy of the front page. Try better next time!I was just wondering in the same line. This thread is absolutely meaningless to me cos I have no idea what the story is all about. Unfortunately, I am quite sure that some of those hiden posts must have been made by individuals who equally have no idea of what the thread is talking about but they were quick to have an errection once they saw the names mentioned. |
Mr Aboki: They are trying to bring an Igbo Man down....and who told u the 'man' u refer to is an Igbo man?? ![]() |
Contract to fix that road has rested for over 10 years in the hands of IWUANYANWU (the self acclaimed godfather of Imo politics). The only reason the road is still the way it is is because Iwuanyanwu swore the road will never be fixed. This matter is more than Rochas and besides, its a federal road. |
This shit happens only in Nigeria..(and maybe in some other African countries). Pure sign of inferiority complex mixed with yeye pride |
Dibiachukwu: where in the bible?Are u aware that Jesus Christ stopped people from stoning a woman in the bible?.. Are u also aware that Jesus had a tax collector (present day agboro) as a disciple and people criticized him just like the pope's statement is being criticized today? I quote again, the bible teaches us to hate sin but not condemn the sinners. If u condemn sinners and ostracize them from society, are u not simply acting like the 'holier than thou' crowd that wanted to stone the woman? |
JIGHU: No ....Roman Catholics is losing itNo... Nobody is loosing anything except lots of Nigerians who have zero ability to comprehend simple reports. Hate the sin but not the sinner... that's the bible's stand... I wonder what is so difficult to understand in that.. Very soon in our traditional hypocrisy, Nigerians would soon advocate for stoning of adulterers.. ![]() |
drake2005: This is man ought to be arrested, charged and sentenced for wrongly use of English languageWhere/when did Patrick tell you that he speaks English? His language is a complex mixture of English, spanish, greek, hebrew, italian, french, various Nigerian Languages and slang. I maintain that Patrick is in the wrong profession (politics instead of comedy) however he will always have my respect cos he has always pitched his tent boldly on the side of Nigerians and the truth even when he risked being the odd one out. This unfortunately got him booted out by the powers that be. I only wish Nigerians will cease from being myopic and look beyond the man's peculiar language. |
Wsdm: Mr. Pope, you are not to rule base on your volition. Tell us what the Bible says about this, simple. Must you all be controlled by western idiocy? Christianity is making itself two porous.Can u please go back to the report and read it again; this time read it slowly instead of just commenting based on the topic of the thread. To save u the stress of re-reading (that's if u even read it in the first place), the pope has simply said that 'sinners' should not be judged but should be allowed to come to church and not be ostracized. He however states very clearly that he is against the 'lobbyists' who are on a campaign to make it look like being gay is right. Can u please now tell us what the pope has said that is against bible teachings or the teachings of Christ? |
Syncan: Exactly. The church never teaches discrimination against them, She rather sees their act as a grave disorder, yet She encourages them to seek the face of the lord, whose grace can make all things good. Yea its unfortunate when someone finds his or her sexual taste biased in that manner, the church sympathises with such a one, but calls him or her to a higher spiritual effort. The pope however, in line with the church, frowns at any propagation of a disorder as if it is right. This is what the lobbyists do.I think this is exactly what the pope is saying. The report isn't very clear and unfortunately not so many people have basic comprehension skills. I can see a lot of people reading negative interpretations into the pope's statement. It is already happening in this thread ![]() |
Erifenz: [size=15pt]No celebrities in Nigeria[/size]TYPICAL MENTALITY OF THE BLACK MAN!!!.... "RUN DOWN YOUR BROTHERS BUT EXALT THE WHITE MAN" EXACT REASON WHY THE BLACK RACE WILL FOREVER REMAIN THE MOST INFERIOR RACE..#SMH |
3: Scheduling Time For AffectionNo 3 is a major reason why even happily married men give cheating a thought... The problem of a man who cheats is that once it starts, it becomes almost impossible to stop...I wish ladies would get this into their head.. Say no to scheduling!! |
HNosegbe: The Senate president has still not addressed the issue closest to my heart.Now if the bolded statement above is truly in the Nigerian constitution, then the issue of considering under-aged but married girls as being of full age should be invalid as the constitution already regards the marriage as illegal. The problematic clause should simply be deleted as it contradicts itself |
The media certainly deceived us in this matter. I actually thought the senate outrightly passed a bill approving marriage to minors but now the picture is clearer. Unfortunately, Nigerians are hell bent on stubbornly swallowing the original misleading story passed on to us through the media instead of taking out time to ask the VITAL QUESTIONS. From my little understanding of this whole saga: 1) The constitution says a person who is of full age must have attained 18 years of age 2) Now they want to allow an exception to this law which considers married women under 18 as being of 'full age' for the sake of 'renouncing citizenship' ONLY Two vital questions I have are: 1) What is the actual age of consent in Nigeria according to our constitution - Nobody seems to have asked this question 2) Are we sure the proposed exception would not be extended beyond 'renouncing citizenship' only to other areas such as voting rights? |
Caracta: There should be 0-15 0r 5-15 for the "First-to-Comment" Crew.I beg to disagree... You will be shocked that there are several 30+ individuals in the 'first-to-comment' crew. Unfortunately most of them would say they are 51+ in this thread ![]() |
26-30 |
Common sense entails that like-for-like songs should be compared. But in Nigeria where everyone has suddenly become 'professional' critics, meaningless threads like this are created everyday |
ak4God: Sowore is working with Opposition,how come Sahara reporter never published any news regards to other parties?Everything dey post is always about Jonah!!Sowore"s report is biased and full of sentiment. Too bad!!RUBBISH!!! SR focuses its searchlight on the government in power to expose their excesses. They have little or no business with a powerless/worthless opposition. If the opposition takes over power tommorrow, SR will certainly switch their attention just like in the Yaradua sickness saga. When Yaradua was sick and SR exposed their secrets, I guess SR was also working for the opposition (GEJ + Nigerians)? Simply because u like the present administration does not mean SR should change their philosophy. Live with it! |
solomon111: And the sad thing is that many people believe the malicious reports of Sahara reporters against the president.In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is definitely the king. Half bread is better than puff-puff That the fruits from the vineyard have been harvested with some weeds does not mean we should throw it all away. It takes the application of a little bit of wisdom to separate the wheat from the chaff. As long as news reporting is concerned in Nigeria today, 80% of the stories reported by SR have eventually turned out to be raw facts. It takes a little bit of wisdom to identify the remaining 20% Just like I said earlier, since no other news house or whistle-blower agency has been able to give Nigerians the 'un-reportable' news like SR, they will continue to be the king in the jungle with great followership. Live with it! |
