wizboi26: pls guys does it work on 2.2 froyo android phones,cos I downloaded it buh am gettin parse error in installing it

That is because your version of Android is not supported. It's for Android 4.0+

haibe: how did you do urs . are u using wifi or mobile data cos mine is saying no connection found.

The app is still a bit buggy; A lot of people (not only in Nigeria) are complaining about this problem. Some even said it's not connecting on wifi but on mobile data only. Just keep trying again.
However, I've added another download link to the links above, maybe the fourth one work fine. Who knows?

'Shame' Lol.

The wait is over!

In case the grammar in the english version of the Lord's prayer is a little big for comprehension, here's the pidgin equivalent:

Our pale wey arrange for heaven, we dey hail your name. Make your package dey co-operate for earth as e dey arrange for heaven.
Give us today, our dele bread as you dey do am before.
Abeg forgive us anyway wey we fall your hand so that we go fit forgive the people wey fall we hand too.
No let us fall for inside gobe wey we no fit carry but deliver us from bad market.
Na you get the kingdom, the ogbonge power and the glory wey berekete till eternity wey we never see. AMEN!

Former EastEnders star, Martine McCutcheon who went bankrupt earlier this week spilled shock as she tweeted about her new £1,000 hair-do.
She didn't really make it from scratch; She only added extensions to the original bob on her and it cost a whooping £1,000.
She rushed to twitter, expressing how happy she was about the hair saying:
[blockquote] You cheered me up with your kindness and new luscious hair! Thanks for treating me and making me feel nice.[/blockquote] - To gold hair extensions company.

After going bankrupt, she splashed a total sum of £1,000 on hair extension. Interesting!

Meanwhile, it was revealed that the hair company gave discount in return for the online praise.

A 23-year old man, Salisu Mohammed of Nasarawa Gwong, has appeared before an Upper Area Court at Kasuwar-Nama, Jos, for raping a 6-year-old girl.

The Police Prosecutor, Mr Gokwat Ibrahim, said the father of the victim reported the matter to the Nasarawa Gwong police station on Christmas Eve, the same day the offence was committed

He said that the accused was facing a one-count charge of rape. He added that the accused, who resides in the same compound with the girl, had invited her to his room where he raped her.

“The cry of the minor attracted neighbours who forced the door open and caught the accused committing the act.”

Gokwat said the police had concluded their investigation and were only awaiting the medical report from the hospital.

He requested the court to suspend judgement on the matter pending the report from the hospital where the girl had been taken to for treatment

On his part, Salisu Mohammed pleaded guilty to the charge and begged the court for leniency, saying that he was a first time offender.

The trial Judge, Malam Mustapha Hassan, adjourned the case to Feb. 22 for judgement and ordered the accused to be remanded in prison.

When will these madness stop in Nigeria?

President Goodluck Jonathan has again lashed out at ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, describing him as a confused man unstable in his views regarding government’s handing of the protracted Boko Haram insurgency.

Mr. Jonathan, who spoke through his spokesperson, Reuben Abati, was reacting to Mr. Obasanjo’s comment in a CNN interview that the president had been deploying excessive force and exploring little or no dialogue in solving the Boko Haram problem.

“To deal with a group like that, you need a carrot and stick. The carrot is finding out how to reach out to them. When you try to reach out to them and they are not amenable to being reached out to, you have to use the stick,” Mr. Obasanjo reportedly said.

An apparently angry Mr. Abati took to Twitter early this morning deploring the former president’s comment and labeling him a confused man whose counsel or view the government does not care about.

In four different tweets this morning, the presidential spokesperson said, “In Nov. 2012 in Warri, fmr Prez. Obasanjo accused federal govt of being soft on Boko Haram. He recommended the Odi solution: genocide.

“In Jan.2013, OBJ tells CNN Govt shd adopt a carrot and stick approach to Boko Haram. Genocide & dialogue? Where exactly does he stand?

“OBJ’s position on Boko Haram= Contradiction and Confusion writ large.

“One report says OBJ is recommending a multifaceted approach to Boko Haram. This govt certainly doesn’t need a lecture on that!

“Jonathan administration has shown creativity & purposefulness in handling the BH challenge. Hence, the progress we witness.”

Mr. Obasanjo first angered Mr. Jonathan after he suggested that the president appeared a weak leader given the way he was handling the security challenges facing the country.

In his comment, the former President reminded the nation of how he directed security agencies to invade Odi, Rivers State, to fish out militants who killed some security men during his tenure.

An angry Mr. Jonathan however hit back at Mr. Obasanjo during his last media chat, saying the Odi invasion Mr. Obasanjo boasted about did not solve the problem but only ended up shedding the blood of the innocent.

Since then, elements loyal to the two men within the party have engaged one another in a war of words, and the national leadership of the party has been desperate for a reconciliation.

But when a peace team, led by party chairman Bamanga Tukur, visited the ex-President in his Ota farm on December 15, Mr. Obasanjo insisted he would continue to comment on national issues whenever necessary not minding whose ox is gored.

Yeah Yeah! It was fun meeting other bloggers.
Well, what was more fun was learning with visual tutorials. I enjoyed it!

virtuoso01: Despite all these impressive features the real spoiler is the Java S40, it is an outdated platform with very serious limitations.

The last phone I used was an S40 and I could not use it to read ordinary pdf files.

That's everyone's complain. What Nokia did was that they created a high class phone for s40 series.

HTC 8S is a good phone but I will prefer the Lumia 920 over it. They ain't mate though.
512RAM and 1700mAh battery is kinda low for this brilliant device.

Imagine someone use style to propose Linda Ikeji here on Nairaland. I can't laugh o.

Okay so today is Linda Ikeji's birthday and I've seen couple of hundreds of wishes thrown at
her except this one that made my day with
excessive laughter.
I was almost wetting myself with urine (Don't
think too far though).
The message below was an open birthday message/proposal by a Nairaland member to Linda Ikeji; Have fun reading!

Hey Linda baby, i know you are a member
of nairaland.
So am i. I have no qualities, no blog, no big
money, no national award, no permanent
US visa.
But i have a house in the village that can accomodate us if worse come to worse.

I have a car that, if you put enough petrol
on, it can take you and i to any part of
Africa.
My father left a lot of lands in the village to
cultivate Yams and its Coco sister, Cassava, pepper, okro, maize.. You see we
can never become poor. But of course you
have evolved from human being to cyborg.
Looking down to those natural things isnt
possible anymore. And while i sit on my
sitting room typing this with my Nokia, i wish to ask Linda, would you marry me?
I wanted to announce this at your birthday
party but i cant risk being thrown out by a
bulky looking guy.
Dont worry, i will accept 'no' as well as
'yes'. Bye bye. Do people even use 'bye bye' again?
Happy Birthday Linda! From all of us at
NaijaTalkative.
