CrimeRe: Navy Officer Murdered By His Jealous Brother In Lagos by obi123: 6:32pm On Feb 24, 2013
Liberal2020: To the eyewitness...Someone had his hands stained with blood at after midnight and told you he killed a goat and you foolishly believed it. I don't think it is that easy to kill a goat alone. Not so easy...I did try one time and the goat escaped with the knife.
i know someone just died but this your experience with a goat had me laughing like mad laugh eh
Nairaland GeneralRe: Pupil Killed While On Teacher’s Errand by obi123: 6:13am On Feb 23, 2013
COOLDUN: Teacher sending his/her pupil/student to an errand is never a sign of slavery , I agree that it is not all that right, but the way some of us here are taking the matter looks so judgmental. There was a news which most of us here and other forums applauded recently, about how a teacher saved the lives of her pupils from the recent school shooting in the USA, by hiding them in a locked cupboard in her class, and died while protecting her pupils.

Now if a teacher could go that far to protect her pupils while losing her life, then what is wrong and criminality in a teacher sending his/her pupil/student to an errand? The time this teacher would have used to escape was sacrificed to save her whole pupils. Common lets us reason humanly.


I know it’s painful to lose such a bright and pretty child in this way, but we should also know that the teacher is not happy to be in this present situation. We should not crucify the teacher for this un intentional error, because none of us here will swear that we have not sent someone on an errand before. Because there was no causality like this does not make us perfect for that then. If the teacher/tutor gave her a precious gift will the family reject it? It is true that only bad thing is regretted.

Some are saying that the teachers are only paid to teach from the school curriculum, That is absolutely nonsense, never mind that the Nigerian educational system is almost dead due to the mock privatization policy, if it was when education was what is supposed to be, none of you guys would have said what you are saying now.

Moral value is the biggest part of education and teachers contribute 80% of the real moral values you can ever acquire through education, we are lacking all those factors in our daily lives today,many teachers/tutors during our school days succeeded in bringing most of our stubborn friends to submission and total positive changes which their parents could not do then.

About God in this case, nothing that happens in this world and beyond that is not known by God. He is the one that created this girl and he knows that she will come back to him in this form. Any Christian believer will testify that the living God knows the end from the beginning. Sorry for bringing in Religion into this matter, as we all know that we cannot do without it too.

If this teacher should be sentenced to death, or life imprisonment, this dead angel girl will never wake up again. What we need to do is to pray collectively for God to grant her living family the fortitude to bear the loss of this girl, while the teacher/tutor should learn from this experience.If any of us on this nairaland have not sent anyone whether related or not related to us to an errand before let him/her be the first person to prosecute the teacher/tutor.

I still stand on my personal appeal to the mourning family of this pretty dead girl, to please in the name of God to forgive this teacher/tutor. As I also pray for the late girl to take her rightful position amongst the Angels of God in heaven/Paradise.
an errand OUTSIDE the school premises at 10amhuh??

homesteady: so is it only what is in the curriculum that the students are taughthuh....
Morals is not part of the school curriculum,bt the students are taught morals by their teachers. Maybe dey should only teach yur child english,maths and inter science nd lets see if you'll like your child behaviour
yes please, they should teach them what they are paid to teach,if part of the moral lesson includes sending them outside the school premise then no thanks, the parents of the girl are even lucky that they know what happened to her , there is a body , and perhaps the possibility of closure after she is mourned , what if she was kidnapped ? and nobody has a clue where she is right now?
All in the name of teaching moral the poor girl is now at the mortuary oya CLASS DISMISSED.
Nairaland GeneralRe: Pupil Killed While On Teacher’s Errand by obi123: 10:43am On Feb 22, 2013
homesteady: i dont think it is a crime for a teacher to send his/her student!! Even in Private schools,teachers send their students
save it please!!! there should be clear boundaries between a student and a teacher , in my opinion teachers have no right to send any student any errand if it doesn't have to do with the curriculum of the school or the welfare of the student.
clearly the errand was a personal one and has resulted in the death of someone's child, i hope the teacher dies of guilt.
We need to refuse mediocrity on so many levels , there needs to be a standard.

This is not a case of how well a child can cross the street , the child had no business being outside at all.

dbride: 99.9% of nigerians living in the UK are suffering and smiling, period. They are coming back because they have reached their wits end, their backs on the wall economically. Besides, there is absolutely no life there. Nigeria is bad, yet these whites who attain their retirement in 9ja, secure another job just to stay back in 9ja! I have travelled far and wide, home is home in spite of all her shortcomings.
I am a Nigerian and God does not make mistakes!!!
99.9% huh please which Nigerians have you been hanging out with ? Everyone is at different stages of their life and career, so maybe the ones you know are still at the suffering and smiling stage but the ones that i know ,i can tell you are doing brilliantly, smiling and smiling.
I'm Nigerian, born and raised but without any reasonable doubt , i know ,i was meant to be in the UK and even in my dreams i never see myself in Nigeria

FamilyRe: What Exactly Is A Man's Duty In The Home Nowadays by obi123: 3:07pm On Feb 08, 2013
the line of duty in a home is very thin right now , it all depends, i think there should be no status quo ,do what works for you in your home .
the norm is for the man to take up major responsibilities in the home but again what if for some reason he is not able to ? does the home stop running ? what if for some reason the woman due to ill health is not able to perform her so called wifely duties, does the home stop running? the home is like a ship ,everybody pitches in to ensure smooth sailing, all hands on deck i beg .

People go into a marriage thinking that there is a particular template for a successful home, there really isn't, what works for your friend might not work for you .DO WHAT WORKS FOR YOU, YOUR UNION IS UNIQUE.

people are being careful, too much is happening these days , 2 eyes is now not enough , Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, personal visits, investigations in fact anything that can give an insight to someone's background should be used before anything like marriage is agreed .
if an employer does background check before employing someone how much more a man giving his daughter out in marriage .i suspect that i will do worse when it comes to my child , i will hate to see my child go through heartbreak that could have been avoided

PoliticsRe: Lagos To Introduce Cable Cars For Mass Transportation. by obi123: 4:15pm On Feb 03, 2013
while it is good to dream in colour ,sometimes its good to take baby steps, cable cars are not suitable for mass transportation, trains are better and go faster .Fashola has a big vision for Lagos but there is such a thing as dreaming too big .

got this from the TFL website

Seating capacity per train 280
Standing capacity per train 547
Train capacity - six cars 827

can you imagine 827 at once and even more on the northern line , it could go up to 900 , that's a whole lot of passengers,and you can add carriages depending on the route , usage and time of day , so its flexible ,trains are needed desperately in Lag and it will make a whole lot of difference if they get it right

Foreign AffairsRe: Blacks Are Educated To Feel Inferior - Dr Bedford Umez by obi123: 3:36pm On Feb 01, 2013
fellis: ^That isn't just a theory. Black people are actually covertly being taught to believe that they are inferior mostly through the use of mass media. How many times have you actually seen any of these major foreign television stations potray Africa in a good light? It is always one depressing story or another. If they are not broadcasting news about the wars in some African countries then they are showing images or footage of starving and dying poor Africans.
Even when it comes to giving awards for literary work, you would notice that it is mostly the African authors that write on the darker sides of their countries that get international renown ( Chimamanda for instance). There are deliberate attempts to keep Africans down by downplaying their successes and highlighting their failures, that is the truth it is not a theory.
And what is the response when these so called foreigners portray us in bad light ? absolutely nothing ,
We cant wait for them to blow our trumpets , we have to blow it ourselves,there are a lot of high achieving Africans , a lot i say, but for some reason we dont hear of them , Mass media in Africa is absolute rubbish, so all we get are foreigners doing our PR for us,we let foreigners tell us about our own Africa , which is a shame.
We need educative documentaries ,books, articles on the History and Beauty of Africa , travel programs, we need to invite people to experience the positive Africa , we need brand champions.
Even the world is sick of the same old same old same stories emanating for the continent - war , corruption, epidemic, red cross
