Thats why it is called a school. They are training them to be able to enjoy their deplorable barracks when they pass out
At least moving to the smelling barracks from the training school will be an improvement and will be a good motivator for the recruits to study so as to escape the training school as soon as possible.

dont know him, but from comments so far, looks like this is going to be one more sheep in the midst of multitude of lions.

They will soon be calling for his sack when he tries to clean up whatever ministry he is posted to.

Then you will see people on NL say he must be a bad man for those under him to be requesting for his sack, just like the SEC lady.
Fingers crossed

op: those ditches by the side of the road are not drainages, they are called gutters

Drainage drains water away, these ones store water and breed mosquitoes.
Someday our politicians and engineers will develop standards for drainage construction then we will start to see drainages being constructed that will actually drain water.

SAFO: melmo, I have some beautiful ocean front property in Kaduna that can be had for a very low price.

Contact me

dont laugh, she might just fall for it, after paying for Ocean front, she will see arid sand front

Kinnapping is a crime. Anyhow you look at it.
Criminals sooner or later get their punishment. So the kidnappers will get their reward someday.

deelummy: There is nothing like AIDS, so no need for a cure.
Just a multi-billion Dollars industry.

you are so brainy!
The people who have died from aids were actually killed by witchcraft, not aids.

and those currently living with hiv are actually under some evil spell from witches, not hiv.
No aids my brother. Ride on, dont use protection.

Mojir: This story of arm robbery attack by the writer sounds fictional! His words contadicts. And I guess he is trying to practice story-writing.

Its been long I heard of arm robbery attack along that route as I fequent that road. I don't know why some people just delight on putting unnecessary fears on travellers.

May God help us and May year 2013 be glorious for us all.

Looks like you are very conversant with the time they rob on that road. Do you have an insider among the robbers. We like to know when next they will be on that road so we can avoid them.

But we already have a cure for hiv/aids in naija.

It is sold in many public buses across the country.

It cures all ailment, be it malaria, thyphoid, back pain, waist pain, low libido, positive and negative hiv, aids, headache, toothache, brief illness, cancer, syphillis, gono, even dizziness our naija gbogboloshe will cure it.

Rush to the nearest public bus and purchase yours.

check your details again, umutu is a marginal field, it can not produce 300,000 bbls a day.

Gambrosia: Oh noooooooooooooo. . . I don't hate them at all. . . I just love to be 10 steps ahead.



Very good! I am glad you h-understan'!

Callotti why the change in name to Bambrosia, did they ban u
am sure you deserve it with all those your post that can give some men heart attack.

@topic.
write your will a soon as possibe, even if you don't have much property, at least it gives you the opportunity of stating your position when you are no longer there.
In you will you can even just state how and where you want to be buried and how you want your assets and family treated.

not yet. cant find it to buy

i guess they left in a hurry to complete whatever looting they were doing before they came for the meeting.
The last few hours will be very crutial in siphoning as much money as possible before they leave the office, why waste part of that time eating?

Amya: Kuwait is a rich country because there are so few population and plenty oil. Not because their leaders are so pure and holy. If nigeria had such a little population and that much oil, bad leaders or good leaders, we'd all be rich.

Wonders shall never end, so we still have sensible people in Nigeria and on Nairaland for that matter.

Shollypopz: AH!! Was it not a few days ago when I didn't get my canon t4i, I was saying the exact same thing. Miss Independent don tire me ooo. I want a rich man abeg, just to buy common camera person go save for more than 6 months.....


How do we find these men that are ready to lavish their money? Upload another video fast, in fact where do I send my application? #serious matter!

I feel you.

You dey talk camera, what about house rent?
For the naija straight babe to pay house rent na war. She go save, save and save. House rent go take like 60% of her total yearly salary.
But no worry, e go better

If this were to happen in Nigeria, nairaland would have been toast.

But a Kuwaiti man, Rashid Saleh al-Anzi, has been sentenced by a court to spend 2 yrs in jail for insulting the Kuwaiti Emir on Twitter.

Avoid Kuwait if you cant stop insulting leaders.

According to world bank data, in 2010, Nigeria had 136 KWH of electricity for each resident, Indonesia on the other hand had 641 KWH for each resident. That means Indonesia has about 4.7 times more electricity for his people than Nigeria has for his people.


You can check the data through the link.

All nigerian politicians from IBB till date have become very corrupt. Those that are being praised is because they have been able to hide their stealing from the public either by using the apparatus of govt or by paying off those that can expose them.

The anti corruption crusade of the efcc are mere fronts to fight political enemies. When the time come we will get serious and actually fight corruption.

just passing

Una neva see see anything.

The last time I checked two of the 3 govs that have ever had an effect on the lives of deltans were thrown into jail as criminals.

Ambrose Ali built schools round bendel state, he died from the trauma he passed through in prison in the hands of Buhari,

Ibori built schools, roads, hospitals, stadiums and bridges, He and his immediate family are currently in jail because he wasn't loyal enough to some people.

Only Ogbemudia worked and did not end up in jail.

Uduaghan will loot and live in peace after leaving office because he has learnt what loyalty means in the scheme of survival of Nigerian politicians.

I guess they will get some of their surbodinates to follow up issues on the social media, just to be informed.
But I doubt if any leader will comment directly on NL, not with the amount of insults thrown at leaders or anyone with opposing view on NL.

I believe GEJ foray into FB will have taught them a lesson by now, many Nigerians talk very badly of their leaders and any leader that give them direct access to reach them will live to regret the decision.

Very sad.
They killed a young medical student, they should pay for the crime they have commited.

I wonder how the parents of the girl will cope.

In my area the power went out once for 2 hours. That was six months ago. I called the power guys and it was a tripped circuit in my house that was the problem.

Before you start wondering where the hell is that, note its not in Nigeria.

Look on the list in the link below, it shows where Nigeria stand with respect to electricity consumption per capital.

http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/EG.USE.ELEC.KH.PC

Nigeria uses 136kwh per capital while common Zimbabwe uses 1022kwh per capital. compare Nigeria to little Netherlands with a population of 16million, they used 7010 kwa per person in 2010.

On electricity usage, Nigeria ranks with such countries as Myanmar (131 kwh/capital) and Sudan (141kwh/capital). Those are people we are competing with.

Globally the countries we are better than, as listed by the world bank, are:

Haiti (24 KWH)
myanmar (131 KWH)
Dem Rep. of Congo (95 KWH)
Ethiopia (54 KWH)
Eritrea (52 KWH)
Haiti (24 KWH)
Nepal (93 KWH)
tanzania (78KWH)

So before anyone collect chicken change from their stupid politician friends and come to NL to say Electricity is improving they should compared the amount of electricity available to Nigerians and that available to citizens of other nations.

a minimum of 10 fold increase in electricity generation will need to be provided before we see any real and lasting improvement.

I think the title of this thread might be misleading.

you cant be rich by building websites for others. doing that will only turn you into a self employed person, where your income will be proportional to the hours of work you put in.

owning a website building company on the other hand can make you rich, because you can channel the time of others to work and generate money for you.

I think you are just richer than before, that doesn't mean you are rich

utumunta: Ppl jus dey hurry to buttress their vanity wt empty posts.
What if ds guys are demented(wch sane person goes to an airport wt firecrackers?)& lets off d banger in d waiting lounge?
What if they manage 2 smuggle it aboard an aircraft & let it of mid-air? Imagine d chaos dat d attendant panick wil create.
The only reason why ds chaps shld nt be treatd as terrorists is if they enjoy psychiatric immunity.
D boko haram is what it is 2day cos we play wt our security in ds con3.

there is great difference between celebratory fireworks and bomb.

even non professionals know this, but for police to group fireworks as bomb shows that either they know what actual bomb is or they are too blinded by their quest for bribe for bail money that they are ready to frame the 4 arrested folks for a big crime just to extract the largest bribe from them.
Either case, the police is wrong.

it's christmas season and alot of people buy fireworks, that does not qualify them as arsonists and bombers.

tpapi: u beta go for an hiv test

thanks for d advice. i know my status.

I have negative hiv.

remember we all have hiv, some have positive hiv others have negative hiv.
na ur presido wife talk am.

explosive ordinance team of the police arrest 4 people with firecrackers believing firecrackers to be bombs.

then the enugu state pro breaks the silly news to the public.

if trained police explosive ordinance team does not know the difference between fire crackers and bomb and police state pro can not identify a silly report then they all deserve to be shot.

Billyonaire: There is love between me and non-criminal Nigerians. I gave someone I know and called friend funds to help ship me 2 trucks and the fucker collected all my funds and changed phone lines and this is 2 bloody years and am waiting. Only God forgives, I dont.

this type of ideology is why people should avoid taking money from any Nigerian.

you gave someone you call a friend money. you couldn't reach him again so you concluded he duped you. do you know if he ran into other difficulties?

the next time you see him and he is not with your millions on the spot you will kill him.

the dud might be dead, he might be in jail, he might be in coma, he might have honestly lost your money and does not have it and does not know how to face you. these options did not cross your mind. you concluded he duped you. and should die.

thanks for the info.

hiv and smoking dont go together.

anytime i catch hiv i will not start smoking
and if i start smoking i will make sure i dont catch hiv.

and if i catch hiv and start smoking, i will write my will

politicians and scientists are a particular breed.

why not just put a total ban on the manufacturing of tobacco if it is really that bad as it is being portrayed.

and how did this make frontpage with no comment

geeez: These guys are Nigeria's biggest problem. They have introduced different forms of crimes into a region that was erstwhile peaceful and calm. Even the ones in the corporate world devise all means to rip their clients off and play dirty with threats and fraud. They are the ones that will refuse to pay their staff who are in most cases their kinsmen. These guys are trouble anywhere they go leaving behind a tale of woes and anguish in their trail

Between the ibo man, the Hausa man and the other Nigerians, one can not really say who is worse. I will say they all compliment each other in the destruction of the values of a sane society.

clark is just a trouble maker trying to wipe up sentiments against state govs. okirika is is fellow ijaw man that was saddled with managing 50% of delta state derivation fund since 2006. He should tells us what is fellow ijaw man has done with our money instead of pointing fingers at the state government

do we have a mathmatician in the house?

if 13% equals 7trillion, what is 87%.

At least I like to know what amount the federal govt has blown away during thesame period after recieving the remaining 87%.

many states have passed legislatures that automatically transfers large % of derivation funds to some commission that is supposed to coordinate the use of the fund in the development of the communities.

corruption has not allowed these bodies to do what they are supposed to do.

paying derivation to communities is recipe for disaster. we dont want wars among brothers at the community level.
and what will happen to commmunities without oil but host oil production support facilities like link roads to oilfields, oil pipelines, jetties and offices. if you cut off these types of communities from oil derivation fund because they dont have oilwells they may as well tell you to come and remove your pipelines from their land.

friendl: I have married since 2008 feb,up till now no kids,I know I will thank GOD,not doctor
