I'll try to understand what mizkay's saying:

I guess she meant to say there's no age limit to erm, 'sugar mummism' - never heard anything like that. But I understand. She doesn't strike me like one, after taking a look at her pix. Mizkay, just tell them you are not a sugar mummy.

She ain't inviting anybody to see anything!!! Gosh, How guys can go wild at times. She's like, throwing her hands up in exasperation at how Agu can react to what she's said. Mizkay, I hope I'm right o!

Men, I guess I've been missing a lot. I hardly come to this 'side' of this forum. Those of you who know me very well will see most of my posts at the Politics section.......I guess this is a cool place to chill out after a hard days work.

Cheers.

I hope that loud mouthed, silly girl.....(Free something?) have been banned from this forum. Gosh! She said she's a bitch!!!


Seun, abeg don't allow bitches and demented people on this forum.

Please read above url for full details. Need we tell people again that PDP is a party meant for the Hawks? There's a crack on their fence. And very soon, the ''house'' whose foundation has been eaten by ''termites''  will FALL like a pack of cards.

Mai bros, abeg, tell Omon o!

Folks at Elendu have done a bit of scouting for answers. Just read the report from Jonathan. The findings have shown that no one really know what our leaders are up to about this ''debt relief'' thing. Personally, I do not believe in this ''debt relief by sympathy'' from our creditors. And even if we're relieved of this debt, I think it will be a Greek Gift of a sort. And future generations will pay dearly for it.

The whole scenario reminds me of the early slave trade era, where the so-called influential and greedy blacks, traps their kinsmen and sells them to the white folks for gin and mirrors. I will not be surprised to know in future that we are being sold by Okonjo and OBJ as 21st century slaves to our creditors.

They will not give any answer to all those questions. Those facts cannot be disclosed to the public. I hear OBJ does not like certain of his policy objectives and PDP family affair things disclosed to the public.

If that's the case then, do you think they will tell you about that kind of drainpipe in the finance ministry?

I have said it before now that Mrs. Okonjo Iweala should be closely monitored. I will not be surprised if OBJ does not know that his govt. is paying so much to finance the payments for some shoddy jobs in the finance ministry. He's too old to be bothered by such things. I bet he's more concerned with how to feed the chickens and pigs at Ota farms than paying close attention to what goes on in the finance ministry. OBJ strikes me as one who likes to be surrounded by experts, even though he has his own personal agenda and workscope for them. Those experts are just there to dance to his tune. But the intellectual folks will praise him for putting those experts there, thinking they will help him do the right thing.


I kept telling folks on this forum that evil begets evil. If you mix evil and good, you'd get EVIL and nothing else. OBJ is setting a precedence that future leaders might follow. Everyday, our rulers devise new strategy (ways and means) of how to pull a veil over our eyes to deceive us. They tell us that they care for us and the next minute, they are killing us. I just want my peace of mind in this country. Peace for everyone.

This one is from Pa Alayande.

OBJ's hand is seen everywhere.

I'll stand by bagoma. We should just wait and see. Let 2007 come, then, we'll know if OBJ will go or not. Simple.

Methink we are incuring more debts already.

Kola,
You MUST understand that I want this country to remain united, peaceful and prosperous. I have inlaws in Yorubaland, and in Abeokuta, OBJ's town, in particular. So, why would I want to see any harm come my sister's way?

But we have to say and DO something when evil men roams the lands and threaten to destroy the very fabric of our nation's existence. The events that culminated the removal of Alams and Ladoja from office are totally UNDEMOCRATIC and unacceptable. The assassination of the former PDP Vice- Chairman, South, Chief Dikibo, Rimi's wife, Bola Ige and a host of others, by unidentified elements, suspected to be loyal to the PDP's cause leaves much to be desired. Why should I fold my hands when my source of livelihood and happiness is threatened? OBJ's time will come again. It's just that we allowed old and expired people to rule us in this country. This ''old people's rule'' thing is driving me crazy. Just look at all the folks at the top. They all lacked vision. They don't have what stuff it takes to lead people like me, Conscience, Owo, Seun and other brilliant folks on this forum.

So, Kola, please hold your peace. And except you are related to OBJ, I advise you to stay clear of that man.

Oasis and Owo, I've learnt quite a lot from you both. Thanks.

Folks, check out the latest in the Delta:

and this one:

http://www.thisdayonline.com/nview.php?id=38255

Dikibo, Bola Ige,  Alams, Ladoja, Rimi's wife, Audu Ogbeh, Ngige, Asari Dokubo, Uwazuruike,....hmn.hmn!

Trouble dey come o, make everybody ready o!

Bros Conscience, my friend, welcome back.

I remember posting something like: ''It's Alams today, it could be anyone tomorrow'' in one of my entries. Well that 'anyone' is Rasheed Ladoja.

I tried very hard to convince my people that all that befell Alams in London and Yenagoa were the teleguided works of the EFCC, OBJ and PDP (People Deceiving People). The chickens have come to roost. Chris Ngige must be a very strong man, or his godfather must be a weak godfather. Either way, I see an unfolding pattern of dog eat dog in this country. I also believe that these our rulers have devised a different way of fooling us. ''Mix evil with good and get EVIL'' Just like -*+ = - ......a dangerous trend is gradually being formed.

So, here's the problem: This country has been sold to a clique of very hungry, bloodthirsty, evil beings. They are greedy and intolerable of any opposition. They'll go all out to quench any kind opposition.

Solution: I really do not know of any............... more than prayers for the nation at this time, for divine intervention.

Folks, I want to see solutions to our problems. So, how do we go about these solutions? you may ask. We have to identify them first. Then we nip them in the bud.

Now, some of our problems in this country are bad leadership, right? another one is illiteracy (some 38% of the country's population are well informed and educated. The rest are just 'follofollo' people. They don't know what's happening around them, and they just follow the crowds!). Others include tribalism, nepotism, greed, indiscipline and laziness.

So, we have them in this order:

Bad leadership
Illiteracy
Tribalism
Nepotism
Bribery and corruption
Examination malpractices
Greed
Indiscipline
Laziness

There could be more. Someone said the list is endless. God help us!

Now, what I want is this: Nairalanders should tell me how we'll crush all these problems (one at a time). Crushing them all will free us from the present predicament we're in. Now, if you come up with any solution, I want you to APPLY that solution to yourself first, before you think about HELPING other people.

We have to start from somewhere. Eventually, we'll chase out all the rotten tomatoes in our country through ACTIVE collaboration and efforts on our part.

Site admin should create another column titled Patriotic Acts. Let every good deeds geared towards freeing us from the grip of corruption and evil be posted there. With time, and with interest on our parts, that column could be loaded with all the needed gems that many of us need to get to the promised land.

Peace.

I guess we've got to start looking 'inwards' for alternative source of revenue.

Owo blow! U're right! My mistake. I stand corrected.

Granted that these opinions are real and stares you in the face, then it's not a matter of everyone getting entitled to his/her own opininon. It becomes national interest. Every statement made by that columnist is a fact an undisputable fact. It stares us all in the face.

There's no hiding place for the man OBJ.

Yemstrad,
We need your type in this country. Don't worry, it will not get to the stage that you'd die first before we'll get solutions to our problems in this country. We will not stop giving our candid advice.

As per National Intelligence people on this forum, I believe there are some. That's why I said in one of my posts that man must be very careful on this forum o. Yoruba folks will say: Ogiri l'eti: The wall have ears.

Just another angle to it:

We produce some 2400000 (two million four hundred thousand) barrels of oil per day on the average. Right? OK, lets say 2million barrels.

So, with a barrel of oil costing some $56.00 (on the average), that means:

We make some $56*2000000 = $112,000,000. That's some $1.12billion dollars daily.

Now, we know that it's not only oil that's a revenue earner for the country. If we add all the other sources of revenue for the country, we could say we ain't doing badly, though.


But, na wah o. $1.12 billion dollars per day! Men, surely, there must be a way of spreading the proceeds around. It's huge!

Na wa o!

My people, I go sallah break before. But I'm back, with a bang!

I was just wondering, over the break period, why things have degenerated to this state in our fatherland. Many of us do not know why this our country is so bedevilled with evil and renegade rulers

I propose a paradigm shift in the way we post issues on this forum. Let us start proffering solutions to the problems that stares us in the face in our country. This site is growing rapidly by the day, and I believe it's loaded with highly intellectual people (male and female). Posting the problems that we face daily will not help much. I want to see solutions.

We need a complete overhaul of the way we look at issues. We need to take a stand against corruption.


Yesterday, I watched women, mothers, at Abuja on NTA news going on a peaceful protest march over the death of their children. One was asked why they were all out on a march?

She replied that: We have to come out now and speak against the rot in our public utilities, in ours systems. It is not enough to preach against corruption and greed we have to take ACTION against them. We are all out today to remember our children, whose lives were sacrificed for the careless and ''I don't care attitude'' of many of us before now. We are often comfortable sitting at home just watching as terrible events unfolds in our lands, as long as it does not touch us or our source of livelihood and happiness. But that has to change now. Our worst fears and what we never wished has come to us. We have to fight back now. We have to start challenging the powers that be. And let them know that we will never fold our hands again and watch them toy with our lives and happiness.


We have to adopt this approach to the problems at hand. Let all NL take this message home. Let them pass it on to their children, mothers and fathers. Tell our kids not to cheat to pass their exams anymore. Tell them that cheating breeds greedy and corrupt people. Let those that give bribe stop giving it. Tell them it perverts the path of justice.
Tell the Kings to stop giving chieftaincy titles to corrupt and people with questionable characters in our town and villages. Let's tell our children to stop cultism. Tell them of the evil thereof.

God bless all of us and free us from the bondage of corrupt leaders and followers.

Seun, I read your reply to my mail. No vex o!

Mikebuddy,
Na wa o. I said you should not read if you do not like long postings. I thot that's simple English enough. Abi you no dey fit read English for afternoon?

Hmn, what about this one?

Kola, pls read the link below.

http://www.elendureports.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=145&Itemid=33

One interesting thing to me is the reply to the Alams question. There's this eleventh commandment popularly circulated amongst gangs and thieves, I heard. It goes ''thou shalth not get caught''

Anyone in doubt again as to what ''actually'' happened to Alams?

The smart thieves, including Gbenga himself, are walking tall and free everywhere. His dad is a kingpin. I bet his dad (OBJ) applied Maradona's tactics (Courtesy of IBB) in swindling the country. That's why the man has two face - one for evil and the other for good! And that's why he's surrounded by the good, the bad and the ugly - Okonjo-Iweala, El-rufai, Akunyili, Chris Uba, Anenih, Chigbue, Borishade, Ali must go, no, come, Soludo etc etc, just try and see the mixture. I just hope that they've not sold us all as 21st Century slaves!

Sowore is no longer with Elendureports.

Excerpts:
Why does your father want a third term?

I am not aware of this third term thing you are talking about. My father is a man of integrity; he doesn’t have any intention to remain in office beyond 2007. He is already building a retirement home and a library in Abeokuta. He is an old man. He may look young to the outside world, but he is an old man. I personally think he is older than 70 years. He just said he is about 70 years because nobody recorded his age when he was born. And his military service, perhaps, made him look fit as a person, but he is not a young person. I have been with him when he looked at obituaries in the newspaper and said: ‘That person who died was the son of my classmate.” He is not as young as people think.

In I979, when it was fashionable to stay in power and he was just about 42 years of age, he didn’t stay in power. Why would he stay in power now? What for? Let me tell you, it is the Vice President, Abubakar Atiku, and the Nigerian press that are campaigning for the third term. They are using it as blackmail. Atiku thinks the presidency is his birthright and as such, it should be delivered to him pronto! Otherwise, who among my father’s close friends is campaigning openly for his third term in office?

But top players in the private sector are urging him on. Can’t he shut them up?

That’s true. The only reason why they are asking Baba to stay is because they are afraid of Atiku. They know he will come and take over everything they have built with his unquenchable greed. Look, quite a lot of people are putting pressure on Baba to stay. Even the Americans are passing messages through me. Forget about all those scripted public statements. They want him to stay. The amount, efforts and resources required to change the constitution are just not worth it. Come 2007, Baba will leave the scene. He is not responding to these campaigns and counter-campaigns because he is busy doing so many things. You can see that planes are falling off the skies left and right. Baba has no time to get involved in these claims.

Let’s look at the celebrated Debt Relief. Is it wise for the government to give away $12 billion as payment for a debt Nigeria never owed?

I think my father belongs to a generation that doesn’t believe in debts. He is of the old school and they hate debts of any type.

It seems to me that there is a kind of ''implosion'' here. The lid has been blown open. What do Nairalanders think about all these ''revealing'' news?

The case has now been settled.

Now, that should put an end to all the hullabaloo on HND and degree people in Nigeria, at least.
