Four guys came out in less than 40seconds i was below the surface for 65 seconds in d pool. She stayed for more than 2minutes, we were forced to pull her out cos we were so scared and she was even resisting. Something told me she's a "Winch" though, the remaining months i spent in that school, we take cover anytime we see her.

Science/TechnologyAnnular Eclipse To Occur In Nigeria On September 1st - NASRDA by Oloniyan(op): 6:21am On Aug 17, 2016
Annular eclipse to occur all over Nigeria Sept 1


AN annular eclipse that will be visible all over the country, with different degrees of totality, will occur on Thursday, September 1.

In a press statement, the Head, Media and Corporate Communications of National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA), Dr Felix Ale, said the highest degree of obscurity in Nigeria during this natural occurence would be in the Southern part of the country, particularly in Lagos, where it was expected to have 80 per cent obscurity, while the lowest degree of obscurity would be about 45 per cent and this would be observed in the Northern part of the country, particularly in Sokoto.

The annular eclipse will be observed as a partial or near total eclipse across the nation, with Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) expected to be about 60 per cent.

The annular eclipse is expected to occur between 7.15 a.m. and 10.03 a.m, with slight variations in actual timing across the country.

In Lagos, the first contact will occur at about 7.15 a.m, while the maximum eclipse will occur around 8.30 a.m. and will end by 10.03 a.m.

The eclipse is expected to commence in Abuja around 7.17 a.m, with maximum eclipse to be recorded at about 8.32 a.m. and the eclipse will end around 10.00 a.m.

It should be noted that eclipse is not a spiritual issue, but a natural occurrence that can be accurately predicted by science. Hence, the NASRDA has developed the capacity to accurately make this prediction as part of its mandates.

The Space Agency has also put in place a viewing centre at her headquarters in Abuja, with provision of proper eclipse viewing apparatus for school children to observe the annular eclipse as part of its continuous programmes to expose Nigerians and students to matters concerning astronomical environment.

While appealing to the general public not to panic or adduce any mystical interpretations to this event, it is also necessary to advise that nobody should observe eclipse with naked eyes.

Looking at the solar eclipse with naked eyes can lead to permanent damage to the eyes, as the obstruction does not reduce the luminosity of the sun.

Therefore, NASRDA has also concluded arrangements to provide limited number of special solar filters to members of the public to savour the rare natural occurrence in appreciation of science and nature.

An annular eclipse occurs when the sun and moon are exactly in line, but the apparent size of the moon is smaller than that of the sun, hence, the sun appears as a very bright ring or annulus surrounding the dark disk of the moon.

What's PTA?

Oh! Professor Tunde Adeniran? (modified)

I'm very close and I'm sure he's not a grassroot politician. He has no home support, except maybe people from his home town in Òrìn Ekiti. I do attend PDP meetings at wards level, I know what I'm talking about. Have you ever wondered why professor Babalola Borisade is more successful?
What has Boris done? Other than installed transformers and technical school in his home town of Ushi? How many human empowerment has he done? How many structural developmental implementations has he carried out? I know what I'm talking about too! PTA is never and will never be a spending politician (if you will understand me), he believes in due process and always stands by it! I can say of many people working now in UBE NUC and also in Germany and France because of PTA. Many schools were built during his tenure as UBE chairman and as minister of Education. So tell me how PTA is not a grass-roots politician

Nairaland General20 Things You Probably Don't Know About Nigeria by Oloniyan(op): 11:26am On Aug 10, 2016
20 THINGS YOU DO NOT KNOW ABOUT NIGERIA.

You may already know that Nigeria is the largest black nation in the world and the most populous nation in Africa.

You may already know that Nigeria has great dependency on crude oil, plus all the other opinions of David Cameron. Here are 20 unpopular facts about Nigeria.

1. Are you aware that all over the world Nigerians are setting the pace and becoming the standard by which others measure themselves? Do you know??

2. In the US, Nigerians are the most educated immigrant community. Type it into Google and you'll see it. Not one of the most educated, the most educated.

3. 60% of Nigerians in the US have college degrees. This is far above the American national average of 30%.

4. Nigerians in US are one of the highest earners, typically earning 25% more than the median US income of $53k.

5. In Ivy League schools in Europe and America, Nigerians routinely outperform their peers from other nations.

6. A Nigerian family, The Imafidon family, have officially been named the smartest family in the UK.

7. The designer of the famous car, Chevrolet Volt, Jelani Aliyu, is a super talented Nigerian from Sokoto State.

8. The World's fastest supercomputer was designed by a world renowned inventor and scientist, Philip Emeagwali, a full-blown Nigerian whose patency was awarded in 2015. This means Nigeria has the patency to the world's fastest computer: a Black Nigerian.

9. The wealthiest Black man and woman on earth are Nigerians, Aliko Dangote and Mrs. Folorunsho Alakija. Both have no trace of criminal record of any kind.

10. South Africa couldn't have ended apartheid & achieved Black rule if not for the leadership role Nigeria played.

11. Of the 3 South African Presidents who ruled after apartheid, two of them once lived in Nigeria under asylum. Both Nelson Mandela (60s) and Thabo Mbeki (70s) lived in Nigeria before becoming President of South Africa. We gave financial support, human support, boycotted an Olympics and our politicians, musicians and activists campaigned relentlessly.

12. Nigeria spent over $3 Billion and lost hundreds of soldiers to end the wars in both Liberia and Sierra Leone which the world ignored because they have no oil.

13. When there was a coup in São Tomé and Príncipe in 2003, Nigeria restored the elected President back to power.

14. Before there were street lights in European cities, ancient Benin kingdom had street lights fueled by palm oil.

15. 500 years ago, Benin casted metal alloys to create magnificent art including the world famous Queen Ida Mask.

16. Amina was a warrior queen who ruled Zaria Emirate in Kaduna state, Northwestern Nigeria 400 years ago in 1610. Google and see what she means to Africa.

17. We gave monetary gifts to Ireland during our oil boom and built a statue for France free of charge. We are not poor blacks. Nigeria is rich and don't be lied to.

18. The first television station in Africa was NTA Ibadan (1960) long before Ireland has their RTE station.

=========

Wherever you look in this great country, Nigeria, heroes abound both now and in our recent and ancient past.

If all you do is listen to mainstream Western media, you'll not get the full picture of your Nigerian heritage.

Do not listen to any leader who says Nigerians are criminals, no matter who he is, or his height and position.

We're not a nation of scammers, drugs & corruption, but a people with a verifiable track record of greatness.

==========

Here is what CNN, BBC, Aljezeera and western media will not tell you about Nigerians:

19. On the 7th May, 2016 at Howard University in Washington D.C history was made. Out of 96 graduating Doctor of Pharmacy candidates, 43 of them were Nigerians and out of 27 awards given, 16 went to Nigerians.

They will only tell you how Nigerians are scammers and cheats, how Nigerians are into drugs overseas et al.

If you don't blow your trumpet, no one will blow it for you. VIVA NAIJA!!!

20. There are over 180,000,000 Nigerians world over and only less than 250,000 of this figure have traceable criminal records. This is about 0.14% of our entire national population in the last 20 years: nothing close to 1%. Shame on global media.

Listen Nigeria, dont let anybody woo you into believing that you are a criminal just because you are a Nigerian. Nigerians are NOT criminals. You are NOT a criminal. You are topnotch; second to none around the world. Be proud of Nigeria wherever you go. Take out your Passport with pride. Be proud of our GREEN HERITAGE. Be enthusiastic of our FUTURE GREATNESS #CelebrateYourNigerianness!

NIGERIA: GREAT NATION, GOOD PEOPLE!!!!

If you truly believe, kindly add anything else that you remember about Nigerians and the greatness of Nigeria...

Lalasticlala Mynd44 seun kindly do the needful to let Nigerians out there knows their worth! Thanks.

At the op ur still a boy grin. Real man knows how to love a woman and does not use sexual history as a criteria, real man knows he is paying not for her sexual purity but becos he luvs her, she is willing to change her last name n bear his name, carry is baby for 9 months, stand by him through the bad and good times, cook for him even though she is working n coming home tired, take care of the kids wen they r sick or healthy, she prays for him to be successful and the lists go on. I think u should grow up and really think of what u want in a woman, ur type will be unfaithful becos the only thing u value in a woman is sexual purity after that what next? How can sex determine ur ego n esteemhuh

But then that will take years and years.

No matter how you cosy it, brideprice is not really a civilized thing



Essientially, it is the practice of selling a woman in exchange for Goods and commodities.

In the olden days, it was used as a major source of income to the bride's family.


But like every other pratice in the world, it is subject to change.


Now it is cosied as buying the "dignity" of a lady.

FamilyBride Price And Dignity, An Eye Opener. by Oloniyan(op): 8:46am On Aug 06, 2016
Permit me to use this Topic as referral to the topic I copied here yesterday on bride price and its necessity.

First of all, bride price is a money you paid to a parents of a lady for the upbringing of their ward as well as price for the dignity and pride of a lady (my opinion)

To those saying the issue of sex is overrated and over flogged, you may be right but there are some points I would like to iron out here.

1. Sex is not overrated it is actually the basis of a marriage. A happy home sometimes depends on it. If not why would couples be over the heads of each other over infidelity? Whyhuh Don't be deceived no one would want a hawker of apple as a wife.

2. It takes some understanding and trust to fully have faith in a woman that was once a peddler of goodies. How would you feel knowing that your friends have been to your destination more than you can imagine?

3. Body counts to me is not a trophy. So stop sharing that thing.

Now back to the original topic, Bride price has always been a customary thing which will always be. And I am not disputing that fact so far you want to be a proud husband, it's a must for you to pay. Be ready to pay it even if you will be spared by the Yorubas or scared by the igbos grin

What we are paying for is pride and the dignity not the sex or vag!na of the lady but all the same where is that pride and dignity when you cannot account for the numbers of men that have passed inbetween those laps? Where is the pride when my friends can actually tell, virtually all the lines in your body?

Fine! Some ladies were actually unfortunate to have fallen victims of vultures among men. But you don't need to hop from one man to another hoping to find a better man by so doing. Believe me trial and error method only leaves the pages of papers with inks. So wait for that perfect time for that man. He will surely come. After all the patient dog eat the fattest bone.

Speaking as a man, we don't really care about the aftermath emotions of sexual activities, some of us if not all are wired to be polygamous in nature hence the ability to hop from one lady to another without any string attached even while still single. It is ladies that bears the mark and shame of the whole affairs. The rods may not likely bend but the bowl may become elongated!

As for the men, I don't see any point for us wanting a virgin whereas we've devoured anything devourable grin. To me you reap what you sow and you must pay the price for what you buy. After all, those you've met and mate will also be hooked up by someone.

Come to think of it, is there any differences among those Vag!na you are smacking? Hell no! So why the fvck are you randomly sampling those innocent girls?

And as for those calling for my head for being a hypocrite, I'm not. I still have my HONOUR as A MAN OF HONOUR that I am! I may have fallen and stuttered grin but I can still stand anywhere to beat my chest and boast of my pride and ego!

And those men who are righteous and celibate enough to keep their beds clean, the probability of you getting a clean wife for yourselves is even. So if fortunate enough to get one, congratulations and if not, well, bear it. It is your cross.

The bottom point is this we are paying for the pride and dignity any other things involved are appendages. Nobody I mean man would want you to bring bore holes of stinking water into his home. We men are full of Ego. If we are lucky to find for ourself a virgin fine and if not fine we stay contented with it.

Stop being a victim. Play wise and use your brain.

Enough said. DandyWalker thanks for the inspiration. ishilove thanks for the stick and those labeling men with pride and ego as poverty strikes mentality fellow please don't be bitter anymore. it's their opinion and they are entitled to every piece of it. It is you that I will advice to be an advocate of self esteem.

you and the person you quoted should just go an have a sit

if a lady has sex, she is not doing it for you! She is doing it because she wants to do it; because she wants ti feel her body; because she like how it is when a man fills her up in her groin area; because she fantacises about it; because she wants to be engulfed in the strong arms of a man who would kiss her at the back of the neck, down her back to just abover her perfectly round buttocks! She wants to experience it when a man smooches her buttocks, run his hands down the divides of her buttocks and slightly parting her labia. She wants to lay on her back vulnerable and feel her strong man penetrate her already wet vaginnna, sliding through the curves and bumps there in.

Yes, ladies should be able to explore their bodies that way!

This is definitely a bashing thread. But come to look at it, it's the dignity that the Op is arguing about here. The sacredness of the feminine nature who are bound to be vessels communicating between this world and the heavens.

Growing up, I listened and read a lot on Sex before I finally indulged. A lot of young people dont understand this. That explains why at a certain age girls start receiving special training and treatments in preparation for the sacred task.

True it is your body but then.. ...........

Op I feel you, just pray you end up with a woman you can be proud of.

The Honor of a man is a chaste and virtuous wife.

Funny we think the norm today is frolicking around and doing head counts with the opposite sex. At least now some sensible ladies can read and see that sex can never keep a man. Plus it's disgusting after been revered by a man only for him to find out you've a 24" pot with the usual 'I was raped when I was a teenager'

OP, if you have slept with not less than 5 girls/ladies in your lifetime, you have no justification for your post. Like my fellow female nairalander said, the universe has it's way of balancing things. Who do you guys expect to marry the girls you've been messing with? You will end up marrying someone that has been messed with because you have messed with some girl at one point or the the other in your life. I'm not justifying the fact that a lady should not stay pure till marriage but it's a vicious cycle that will continue (unfortunately) till the end of time.
