Mario Balotelli – Audi R8/MASERATI GRANTURISMO MC STRADALE



Italy’s Balotelli may not be the most liked football star, but us gear heads can get behind his dynamic duo of rides. A beautiful all black Audi R8 and a handsome GranTurismo MC Stradale are enough to make us say mamma mia!

Cristiano Ronaldo – BMW M6/LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR



Portugal’s main man on the field also has a knack for expensive rides off the field too. His last-gen BMW M6 still pushes out 500+ horsepower from a V10.

His Lamborghini Aventador, well, with its 700 horsepower, that’s on a whole nother level of performance.

Wayne Rooney – OVERFINCH RANGE ROVER



While his team may already be out of the running for the cup, Wayne Rooney still gets to go home to this amazing ride. It’s a custom Range Rover done up by Rover specialists Overfinch.

Lionel Messi – Maserai GranTurismo MC Stradale



Proving to be one of this year’s stars (obviously), the Argentinean forward has a knack for sharp shooting in the upper corner. But that’s no match for his sharp ride — a Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale.

The 4.7-liter V8 pushes out somewhere near 450 horsepower. All with a price tag of $143,000.

This may sound awkward but any fuji music does d trick 4 me ... Especially saheed osupa and pasuma songs(wen trading war of words with each oda) I like listening to them, then I sleep off

Henry praise: And for calling ur president Jonathan does that make u sound wiser? U trully lack manners/ respect for ur elders.

And did he mention any names? That shows u are the one attaching dis to mr Jonathan cause the last time I checked, we don't hv anyone bearing Jonathan as president.

Bimbo in a chat with Vanguard during the Christmas period:
So, what is the worst rumour you’ve heard about yourself?
Oh, that I’m looking for a husband, that I’m desperate for a husband.
That’s the worst I’ve heard and that’s the latest one. I’m not looking
for a husband and I don’t need one.
You don’t need one?
I don’t need anything. I’m a complete person. I only do things that
make me happy, because I believe
and I understand the reality that this is just one life and you should
live it to the maximum, happiness and peace should be the key.
I’m not searching for a husband, because the rumour that I’m
searching for a husband has given me wahala,- all kinds of people
from left, right and centre, looking for me saying they want to marry
me.
Please, I’m using this opportunity to tell everybody, I am not looking
for a husband!
Are you in a relationship?
Yes, I am. But I don’t talk about my relationships.

My name is gabriel olamide oduntan... Thank u

In an interview with Sahara TV, the writer, poet & social critique said late premier of the old Western region, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, was a greater man than South African anti-apartheid
revolutionary, Dr. Nelson Mandela.

Quote:

I am too much of an Awolowo man not to see that the process of moving into independence in South Africa and in Nigeria followed exactly the same pattern. It was based on a negotiated settlement. The liberation struggle
did not create the end of apartheid. It was a negotiation and Nigerians negotiated exactly the way Mandela negotiated.

“You can hype it if you like, but the pattern was exactly the same. You move from one meeting to the other, discussing politics and economics, and they successfully convinced Mandela to buy the pig in a poke of an economy and they also successfully succeeded in convincing Nigerians to buy the pig in a poke of an economy.

“The only man in Nigeria, who stood up against it, was (Obafemi) Awolowo.
He was quickly jailed and all his men scattered across the prisons in Nigeria. Some driven abroad and the educational system that he had put in place was smashed.”

Ofeimun said “People talk about Mandela’s capacity to put various classes (of people) together as theory, but Awolowo ironed it out very clearly, why you don’t need a class struggle, in order to create a society in which all children can go to school; in which everybody can get a job, and in which old age pensions will be paid to
people.

“It is not just love and I want to emphasise that. Those who criticise Awolowo’s socialism for wanting in love are obviously basing their argument on his claim that a government should be like a sun that shines on all equally. If it is about a theory of how to bring the people together on the African continent, none is as good as the Awolowo’s and I’m not trying to pretend”.

“Bring all their writings, fine phrases, alright, but reduce them to economic terms, and I can tell you that there is only one man who rivals Awolowo in this respect and that is Nkrumah. Unfortunately unlike Awolowo, Nkrumah did not believe in either a democratic or a federal theory. If you want to save Africa, you need those two.”

Ofeimun said he chose Awolowo over Mandela because… “The simple reason is that what needed to be done in South Africa, after apartheid was
precisely what Awolowo wanted for Western Region and Nigeria after independence.

Which is to say put every child at school, ensure that productivity takes the creativity of the individual citizen into proper focus and build the relationship between people and not on whether they did not love each other? But whether there is justice and equality.”

‘My BumB*m Is 7ft Wide & I Am Proud Of It’ – Sarah Massey (Photos)




Sarah Massey, 33, says she is proud to have one of the world’s largest posteriors.The mother-of-two’s derriere measures 7ft in diameter and sometimes proves too large to fit through doorways. She has to wear extra large trousers and once managed to crack a toilet bowl just by sitting on it.

‘Everyday I get some kind of comment thrown at me, both good and bad – I used to be ashamed but now I hold my head high.At school I was teased and called Dump Truck Butt by the other kids, but the condition is hereditary – there’s nothing I can do about it. I went through a stage of worrying what people think, but now I want to show the world I am proud to be me.’ She said.
If u were in her position,how would you feel?

Fellow NL, it has come to my notice that we tend to attach so much importance on making the NL's front page. When we see a post, I see some people with comments which includes" U no go make front page in jesus name" , " U self wan enter front Page", "How did this make the front page" etc. We so much cherish being on front page and we criticize the moderators for putting others post there because the news aren't really serious. Oga,life itself isn't serious, so whatever makes front page let it make it. News ana news. But I wanna know the importance of making front page, because people don't really post to share information, they post to make front page. I won't be surprise if someone's comment here goes thus" you self wan enter front page"(lol7).

I want to be faithful to just one gal

Whenever a new year is approaching,we tends to always have a new year resolution, what we want to achieve, what we what to leave behind etc. To some people, they want to stop stealing,excessive drinking,adultery,backbiting etc.
Now the question goes to you Nairalanders,,don't be shy to tell us,what is that Bad Habit/act you do like to leave behind this year(2013).

khattab02: bros u no see the inverted coma? I was quoting what those crew mostly or used to say..

Hey bro, just trying to be funny. Sowi anyways

The I COMMENT MY RESERVE CREW[color=#000000]The I COMMENT MY RESERVE CREW[/color]

The I COMMENT MY RESERVE CREW

khattab02: '' and you expected me to read that long post''? Also '' abeg who read the long post? Please summarise''

Dey don come, na dem be dis....... Wayray sombory

IS SHE A VIR*G*N?

THE OPEN LATER CREW

This actually started happening not quite long after the infamous letter written by former president olusegun obasanjo to GEJ. Since then, the open letter team have started theirs,they write letters to their crush,ASUU Leaders,their lecturers, etc

The ASUU Strike Team:
These people to me are not really those affected by ASUU strike, some are not in Uni, some of them are even a working class but they take the issue of ASUU strike more serious than those affected. All they do is to ensure they write something about ASUU in "any" post they view.how does this affect ASUU strike, when will ASUU call off strike,etc

THE Tecno/Samsung/HTc/Apple team: I don't need to say anything about them. We know the Tecno teams and even the moderators seems to be part of this teams cos they ensure their post makes front page. Apart from this,the tecno teams and other android devices users ensures they engage in e-fight and e-abuses on nairaland each time they get to see each other. I hope I try small

Baba419: Am dissapointed, some of you are here shouting see meat when a beautiful wildlife specimen is being killed for nothing. Thats like an african rock python and by the size it is as old as its killers, illiteracy will kill us before we know.

You don enter am......y dis con dey happen to u on xmas day. Everybody dey put insult for ur injury

What I knw abt christmas is that we are celebrating 2 festivals 2geda... Christ-Mass. The romans chose dec 25 to fall on the day they are celebrating MASS(festival of fire) and that is why u see knockouts and lotta fireworks this period. It is the celebration of christ and mass (christmas). No matter what,my instinct and common sense shows me its not idolatry. Na christ me dey celebrate, no be kumuyi

nneh1: this is not how born to be great people reason.you can never be great with this reasoning.

Olopa ewo ni tepe.... Epe re ooooooo .... Eleda nairalanders go fight for OP

ASUU strike will be called off SOON,that SOON is similar
to the one in "Jesus is coming SOON"
