tayotina? what motives. ?

Even if your source is lying, which they probably aren't, there are a lot of girls out there that you can find. Leave a cheater a lone. aside from heartbreak she can bring you diseases.

what do you think of rebranding nigeria heart of africa, i.e. www.heartofafrica.com

i thought that was congo's position. anyway, its worth it to try to remake the country's image

Amen!

Dont listen to the women on here. They always want you to forgive a cheating lady. If it was a guy that cheated on a girl, thy would tell the victim to leave him

Our leaders need to get serious and sto misbehaving like this. Thats the only way the indians can continue this rubbish. if not for this lady, many more people would be dying. I wish the media would focus more on the evil these indian governments do

Tell her you know what happened, and then leave her. Life will handle the rest

Obasanjo wont stay pass 07. the real problem is who will come in 07. I dont want any of the old click. hopefully one of the younge governor's, not saraki

Why try to lose thier black features. I guess this is the low cost michael jackson way

Ok. Thats your opinion. I just wondered if its based on what the media says about NY, or actual living experinece.

I have this imression of Texas as full of the clan and too racist for blacks. But its probably not tht bad

Nothing beats NY. Its truly the world's city. You can live the business if you want, though its more expensive. But NY is where its at.

If you think the thread is gay, don't answer it and it will die off.

At any rate, hot angel, i hea a lot of ibos and ibibio, (basically easterners) live in Houston. I live in New York now and the africans here blend in

Hot angel, I didn't know people surfed out in Texas.

c0dec, Iplay soccer and played it a lot when i lived in nigeria. Bu if the facilities to surf exis in nigeria, it canbe introduced successfully. I'll have black boys and girl surfing in no time

Its kinda scary, and the fear of drowning under a big wave is always there. I'm older now so I don't try anything of the sort anymore. But maybe when i come to nigeria

Where do you live hot-angel

AIDS didn't come from Congo. Don't buy that

Sorry, hot angel. I was responding to variety of posts in that one. Yes, I do know how to surf. I've met a few nigerians that do, though not in nigeria. i'm by no means an expert though

Know of any other beaches in nigeria with decent surfing capacity? By the way, did you try to surf in eket?

Only black people seem to have hatred towards thier own kind. I never har white peopel saying white men/women are a handful.

Tall girls dont liek short guys. Im 6 0" and girl my height or taller are nervous dating me

these r sme of the old ones i found

I'm not in nigeria, thats why i'm asking. But i dont think there is a market for surf boards or even surf boards in nigeria. Should people start surfin, it'd be good business to make them in nigeria. There are sites that rate the places to surf around the world, (wannasurf.com and globalsurfers.com)and it lists a few in Nigeria, but thier reviews were so bad, i thought it best to ask folks in Nigeria about other beaches they may know about. They basically said the beaches in Nigeria (all in Lagos) were full of prostitues, beggers, filth and crime. They may be right, but i wanted to know if there were beaches in less crowded cities that people knew about.

wannasurf.com is good because it has some nice pictures. The waves seem a bit small though

Viera, I also see Australia as quite racist. Maybe because of their history with the aborigines or because of John Howard. Those folks just seem to Texan for me.

I posted this a while ago. I'm kinda surprised i got a response.

Well, to answer your question, Seun, either one. Its played in some of the 'white' universities in the states, but its mainly popular in britain and the commonwealth. It isnt a pro sport out here. I guess i dont understadnd how a nation with that big a population isnt more present in an international sport like rugby. Its as easy and cheap to play as football, and we have th physical might to be a force. Rugby is being considered for an olypic sport, and its big in many of the countries of the commonwealth. If anyone here is a fan of american pro football, you can appreciate something in rugby

I played a lot of sports in the US after I left nigeria, but thinking back I remember that Nigerians didnt really play a lot of sports outside of football.

No offense taken. Surfing came from the people of the hawaii islands, not from white people. They have surfed for centuries, even royalty surfed on the hawaiian island, until white speople found it. Besides, there is no such thing as a white or black sport. I'd like to see us engaged in any sport. Not jsut football

I hear some people surf in Lagos and Port Harcourt at a few of the beaches there, but does anyone else know of places to surf outside of Lagos and Port Harcourt, and the quality of the water?

G8 Summit:Africa is Offered a Little - At a Price







Inter Press Service (Johannesburg)

ANALYSIS
July 8, 2005
Posted to the web July 8, 2005

Sanjay Suri
Gleneagles

The G8 leaders offered Africa a little with one hand, but that offer cloaked intent to take back more -- and with many more hands.

There were numbers around to satisfy rock stars turned anti-poverty campaigners. U2 frontman Bono had said on day one of the Group of Eight summit, "We could get to 50." So if you add statements of an additional 25 billion dollars in aid to statements of 25 billion dollars in aid at present, you have that magic figure of 50.

On the ground in Africa that figure may not appear so magical. The leaders announced that "the commitments of G8 countries and other donors will lead to an increase in official development assistance to Africa of 25 billion dollars a year by 2010, more than doubling aid to Africa compared to 2004." So only "commitments" -- and those by 2010.

"That is some increase in aid, but not as much as has been hyped up," Claire Melamed from Christian Aid told IPS. "And a lot of what has been announced has been announced and promised before."

Still, that was something to show here at the Gleneagles golf resort, after host Britain had made Africa one of the two priorities (along with climate change) of the summit of the heads of government of the G8 most powerful industrialised countries (United States, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and Britain).

But delayed, or even partly denied donations are not Africa's problem. The G8 pushed the privatisation principle strongly in its communiqué, in the face of a host of studies, several of them accepted even by the World Bank, that rapid and unfettered privatisation had ruined the economies of several strong and struggling nations alike.

"Private enterprise is a prime engine of growth and development," the leaders said in the communiqué that marked the end of the July 6-8 summit. "African countries need to build a much stronger investment climate: we will continue to help them do so." Within Africa "partnership between the public and private sectors is crucial."

The G8 offered help in building "the physical, human and institutional capacity to trade, including trade facilitation measures." But not a word about the agricultural subsidies in the European Union and the United States that make competition so tough they are crippling African farmers and their produce in their own land.

And who will take more advantage of privatisation in Africa than companies from the United States and the European Union? "The G8's approach on trade seems to be 'Ask not what we can do for the poor, but what the poor can do for us,'" said Peter Hardstaff from the World Development Movement (WDM), an independent non-governmental organisation.

God punish that referee.

Christ! What an obvious PDP.

Once again God Punish that referee and him entire family.

Nonsense. That money wey them use buy am over no go better for am

Of course the whiteman is more corrupt than the blackman. Those people are crazy. The penalties were so obviously biased against us

Nigeria will win 4-0

[quote author=armani link=topic=99.msg646#msg646 date=1114321325]I think one of the most treasured experiences about Nigeria is the sense of freedom from all man-made restrictions (what you in a so called "developed " world would call laws). In Nigeria there is so much freedom that you can {[color=#666666]urinate[/color]} on the streets while a policeman watches out for you. Is it not amazing? This might sound ridiculous, but every time I leave the country and I am coming back it is one thing I miss so much.

Concerning freedom, as per tourist, ... the difficulty is that of an innocent sheep running into a wolf. Nigerians do not like people who are generally ignorant, which is why they are very witty. If you come into Nigeria as a tourist and they realise that you know nothing about your environment, they are bound to use you. So, when coming to Nigeria as a tourist, be sure to have somebody in Nigeria as a guide.

I live in the US and folks urinate on the streets (even on the train) all the time. No biggie.

I don't find nigerians to be a wolf0like as you describe them. Most, especially outside of Lagos, are cool folks

Gosh.where in the US cause I'd love to go there and just pee on the street without some 5-0 giving me a ticket[/quote]I live in Brooklyn. Its not all over the place, but it happens often enough. Im sure some people have gotten tickets for it though

I need to see the terms of the deal to be totally satisfied.
