amosy007: Africa has being a "sub" in in everytin especialy d blacks... Until we emancipate ourselves from mental slavery and inferiority complex... We will continue to be sub...
Thats just it
So submarines are inferior because they have a sub at the beginning?

To add more to why it is called subsaharan take a look at this map

The truth be said, electricity is still dirt cheap in Nigeria when even compared to other African countries. The pre-paid meter is a welcomed idea since most homes with installed meters, manage their electricity consumption. But the issue of corruption will always plague whatever novel policy.

I blame the military for all this. When they were supposed to reform our economy they refused since they saw a benefit of running subsidies and government companies. The advantage to which was an easy access to government funds and a paternalistic outlook; The so called carrot and stick.

What stopped IBB from deregulating NEPA, NNPC and co?

The fuel subsidy removal is hard on the average Nigerian but haven't we all moved on since?

I believe this tarrif should stay but transparency and accountability must be at the vanguard.

I lived and worked in a neighbouring west African country for about 2yrs. What amazed me of this poor country is their ability to maintain utilities such as water and electricity. The country is landlocked with most of it semi-arid to arid desert with the only water supply coming from the River Niger, electricity was sourced from Nigeria, Benin and Ghana but for 2yrs, I never ever witnessed power failure nor had the taps go dry on me.

I paid averagely the equivalent of 14,000 naira monthly as power bill and I never complained as long as there is light.
Currently in Nigeria and I spend on average five to six thousand naira monthly on my prepaid meter but I spend at least 20 - 30,000 on servicing my noisy generators which runs for at least 6hrs daily.

ROSSIKE: It's a racist term. No African in their right mind should use it.

In fact do you know that in the ancient days (ie Ancient Egypt, Nubia etc) the north of Africa was regarded as the South and vice versa?

This is why the present north of Egypt was known as 'Lower Egypt', and the present south, as 'Upper Egypt'.


World maps during that era would have looked like this:


https://flourish.org/upsidedownmap/hobodyer-large.jpg


There's no reason at all NOT to regard the world in this above manner. Positioning or designating the earth's land mass in terms of 'North' or 'South' is only determined by what point or position in outer space from which one is observing the earth. There is no 'northern' or 'southern' position in outer space.

The only reason we use the current convention is that Europe took over the dominance of the world and then re-arranged the world map to place themselves at the top, whereas in the past, they were geographically at the bottom.
then you might as well arrange the map with the west to the north.

The concept of which part is north is in relation to how our earth spins and the axis of rotation.

stop spreading B.S.

PoliticsRe: What Is “sub-saharan Africa” Exactly? by ODB1: 11:12am On Jul 13, 2012
Sub-Sahara refers to regions of Africa south of the Sahara. It is not a racist categorization but a cultural demarcation of Africa.
As a Nigerian you have little or nothing in common with North-Africa.

RomanceRe: I Prefer Dating Big Women. by ODB1(op): 12:07pm On Jul 12, 2012
OP here; Again NL failed me. What I meant to convey is not neccessarily that curvy/chubby ladies are naturally better in bed or find s3x more rewarding but what I really meant to put forward, from my experience, is that curvy/chubby chics have a healthy hormonal level which makes them more stable and cool headed. Their estrogen is off the roof compared to lepa chics who look like 12yr old boys and as such have zit levels of estro juice.

The estro juice is opposite to , in effect to testorone actions in men.

Get yourself to a gym packed full with juiced up boneheaads or get yourself to the gym yard in rikers and you will understand what testerone does for men.

Women need estrogen to be women, the soft feautures not only allow for men's attractions but also make her able to comfort her baby with that soft cooing voice.

tl;dr: estrogen equals feminity

I know what you are thinking and no, this thread actually belongs here. It's not part of my primeval lust for women but more of personality rating.

Bigger women actually have better s3x and are more than ever to remain content and happy with themselves. It's as if their hormonal range is kept at an ideal level through normal eating habits to make them more pleasant to be around with than your average sociopath skinny twerp who probably will have her lips taste like an ashtray.

So giving the opportunity to have to chose starting a conversation either between a chubby, curvy woman (not fat) over a skinny lepka, I will definitely be like a Texan. The bigger the better.

I love Serena Williams (despite not giving half a sh1t about women's tennis).

There are days when I honestly think she is the s3xiest woman I've ever seen; she's got a strong and s3xy fit body, a s3xy vibe of self-assuredness and she's lusciously CURVY.
