For goodness sake what is so wrong in a child having a phone. Don't just say its wrong give us a reason? Does phone kill people, the answer is no. Does phone lead to your child being dull again the answer is no. So why exactly is it bad especially when regulated?

Like sumbody said its a phone not a gun.
The concern should be regulating the usage of the phone not whether it is good to buy a means of communication for your 10yrs child.

¶ hav observe that most children who use phone and other electronic devices are generally sharp. (Might be wrong though)

yorke: I will continue going to work. Come on, i thought the motto was "service and humility". Pay or no pay, i'm working!

is nt that i hav anytin personally against u but u hav the kind of optimism that is annoying. jst because you hav a means to transport yourself to work and can eat doesnt mean every other corp member can do same.

i am 100 + 1 percent in support of corp members who dont wanna go to work bcause their meager allowance have not being paid. "no pay no work" is that simple.

have never heard that the govt delayed the payment of militants, senators n their likes so why should they delay that of corp members?

Koolking: I wouldnt know if the quote was versed in any of his lyrics, i got it from one of his books (poetry)

Pls what is the title of the book? ¶ have seen the quote online as part of bob Marley's

just before he died bob marley in his sick ridden bed whispered to ziggy his oldest son 'money cannot buy life'

[quote author=Koolking]“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect far more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.”

Pls which of his song did he say all dat?

Like i said in the other thread on his remembrance. Bob is the person i quote the most. Am nt gonna write a quote cos every word dat came out of his mouth is a quote.
Most times i wonder how he get his lyrics, cos those lyrics are out of this world.

Thank you marley for giving us good music

bandiejay: Do you mean Acting Miracle Do you think those Cripples Begging for money at Iyana-Ipaja and Ikeja along had not visited your so called TB church? I personally interviewed a cripple guy that he should try TB joshua or Oyahk do you know what he said ( i have visited those 2 churches as i see on T.V but bros leave that matter the Judgment no be here .. I laughed my ArXs towards that response

Honestly ¶ wonder how U̶̲̥̅̊ reason in an attempt to snare †ђξ image of somebody. Let M̶̲̥̅Ƹ ask U̶̲̥̅̊ a question. Did Jesus heal all the disabled n people living with infirmity in his time? Were there not people in the multitude who didn't get heal in the public outings of Jesus either because they didn't have one on one encounter with Jesus or cos their faith couldn't make them whole?

@op
¶ have this to say 'the world would have been christian but for christians'...M Gandhi
How can a suppose man of God be criticize most by the very people that calls themselves christians?

It is not my place to judge him but this ¶ can say for sure T.B Joshua have led people to christ and that is a gud news worth celebrating in heaven

To M̶̲̥̅Ƹ Marley is nt jst the king of reggae. marley is music, music is marley.
Hav neva heard a musician wit so much sense makin lyric like Robert infact ¶ considers him a prophet. He has impacted so much to ma lyf 2ru his music. Today Bob is the person ¶ quote most.

Nasta your songs are evergreen. Thank you so much for giving us good music.


"Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right.

Rise up this mornin',
Smiled with the risin' sun,
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Sayin', ("This is my message to you-ou-ou:" ...Bob Marley

As a serving corp member while in camp ¶ have alwayz asked myself wht is the need of this so called oreintation camp? The only reason ¶ could come up with is it is an avenue to siphone the commonwealth of Nigerians.

Like NYSC itself the oreintation has lost it values cos under normal conditions everything we need to know in the oreintation camp can be handled or obtained in the university.

Why not post corper to their state of of redployment or their PPA straight away as obtainable in some countries which by so doin wil save the nature some amount of money which was suppose to carter for the corpers while in camp.

You might want to disagree with M̶̲̥̅Ƹ on the above but trust M̶̲̥̅Ƹ there is nothin useful abt the camp cos the issue of integratin with pple from other state before postin them to their various PPA has already been handled in the university as we get to mingle with pple from other states while in school. The issue of pple can acquire skills 2ru †ђξ recent introduction of skill acquisition in camp is also another means of defrauding the nation as nobody can exactly get any tangible skil from it. They taught fishing fishin in camp without a fish pond, fixing of computers without any computer to use for practical, they taugh us how to make soap with materials that U̶̲̥̅̊ can't use to make soaps that wil be competitive in the market.

The problem of nysc is too much D̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥ shld jst scrap the scheme. Give graduate like 200k (from †ђξ federal allowance) to start somthing afta skol.

MarcAnthon: Why don't you all take two months off whatever you do (that's if you even need that much time), write GRE, do great, apply to schools in the US and if you actually had 2:1 or better coming off undergrad and your GRE scores are tight, you can get full funding for masters in the US, or about 70% funding at least. Seek info about this and expand your horizons. Undergrad abroad may be for the rich but masters? No. I'm yet to see a masters student in the US who is paying for his/her studies. It's either you are on a scholarship or you are a Teaching or Research Assistant. You get your school fees paid and they give you money for upkeep every month end.
Masters in the UK requires money. About 20K pounds, cos all they want to do is collect your money. But in the US they really are interested in building you up and most of the schools are rich and have massive endowment funds.
Y'all don't limit yourselves. While a masters in the US is not the end of the world, it definitely will give you a good head start. So think about it, and seek more info. GRE is also doable if you know what you're doing.

If ¶ tell you ¶ want to do my masters in Nigeria then am lying.
¶ graduated with a first class from a university in Ghana (does that count in anyway?)
Please ¶ will appreciate if you can furnish M̶̲̥̅Ƹ with more information about scholarship for masters in the US. U̶̲̥̅̊ can reach M̶̲̥̅Ƹ via my mail: wokofred4reel@yahoo.co.uk

Am confuse abt ma wht course to do n which university in Nigeria can give M̶̲̥̅Ƹ †ђξ best.
¶ did human resource management for my first degree. Am lookin @ doing masters in any of the following. .MBA, masters in business law or philosophy.

Please advice M̶̲̥̅Ƹ on which you think might do M̶̲̥̅Ƹ more good.

Jst to deviate alittle is there anything like masters without thesis cos my friend who is currently doin his masters in Turkey said he is doin a masters without thesis and for that reason it is cheaper than masters with thesis..(Don't even knw wht that means)

he has raised †ђξ allowance of corp members (nysc) from a meagre of ¶ tink 9kplus to 19800. Datz is atleast sumtin even though it is †ђξ only achievement ¶ could attribute to him since

My problem is why call it a wedding instead of something like celebratiion of self. Isn't wedding meant to be a union between two consenting adults?

Either they are too slow or very reckless. Very few are indeed gud drivers. 95% of time wen a car is in ma front ¶ could tel wen it is been driven by a woman. They just have this odd way of driving

¶ don't feel indifferent abt him ¶ pity for him cos am sure dis wasn't what he bargain for. For dis reason ¶ hav avoided insultin or ridiculling him but dat is nt to say ¶ don't criticize him the only difference is dat ¶ do it objectively.

kusugh: Sometimes i wonder why people say the best brains are on nairaland.A letter of this magnitude shows up and look at the thrash pple are talking.For some of us that were following the silva case,it is true that jonathan has gone outside the law out of desperation to witch-hunt him(sylva).

So wit ur brain dis is †ђξ best U̶̲̥̅̊ can come up wit. Smh

ifihearam: So the Almighty God will reduce Himself telling a prophet about football matches. Please my God is busy doing better things with His time abeg

But who are you to tell God wht is relevant or irrelevant to reveal to dis prophet?

ekitikan: why not apply for the job yourself

U̶̲̥̅̊ took dose words outta of mouth

Nyc one @ op.

¶ could cash in wit dis write up...nollywood. Hahahahaha

Jenny Agun: FASHOLA FOR PRESIDENT
ROTIMI AMECHI FOR VP.

And ur reason being? Am curious abt amaechi cos he happens to be ma governor.

@op
Buhari and fashola/bakare or

Lawan farouk and oby ezewesili

Was she nt a petroleum minister in the period under review?

U̶̲̥̅̊ shld hav asked is sex our culture. Wen did kissin become a cultural tin huh? @ op

[quote author=Musiwa,,]How true is his age 24. Most Nigerian who graduate from universities by the time they finish and go for national service are above 24, mostly if he claim he is 24 years. because nigeria school required age 6 to start. but some parent dont allow their children to wait. and put them in other school. may be that is what happen, but 6 + 12 in high school is 18 . Plus 5 years in the university. Is 23 years. Plus 1 year national service is 24.

80% of nigeria universities graudate do not enter into the universities on the first try because 1.5 million take the exam. only few get in. 2 in 10.

So 80% normally have extra year. The average age of nigeria graduate from university is 26 years. for medicine is 28 years. becoming a doctor in Nigeria is 7 years or 8 if you include service. And becoming an engineer is 5 or 6 if you include service.[/quote]Ur analysis is very bogus. Dia r now graduate of 21yrs n below every where

¶ don't tink it is a mata of ur friend being a player jst like U̶̲̥̅̊. ¶ tink is has to do wit our nature. No guy wil want to see his friend kiss his younger sista weda he is a gud guy or nt or havin †ђξ tot of dis is †ђξ guy bang.ing ma sista weda †ђξ intention r gud or nt.

Omo imagine ur friend tellin U̶̲̥̅̊ or ur oda friends how gud ur sista is in ... U̶̲̥̅̊ knw

beside any gud friend for goodness sake wilnt want to date ur sis. Jst like ¶ can't date †ђξ sista of a friend no mata wht as ¶ considers d̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣m ma sisters too, and n such ¶ hav to watch out for dem

Ma qstn is. Is dis perculiar to Nigerian banks? How often does dis happen even in oversea?

Fireman Jr: Nice thread. They'd better not even think about scrapping batch B. At least not now. Open question; Did they fully implement the new posting policy for this batch A. Gotta be sure so I can prepare my mind. If they did, are private schools included or its just government schools?

Quote M̶̲̥̅Ƹ D̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥ r stil postin corp members to private firm even pple without connection. Am currently in †ђξ system

Nice write up. @ poster U̶̲̥̅̊ r guilty of †ђξ very tin U̶̲̥̅̊ accused us (southeners) of. Who told you dat 'all' southerners stretotype pple from †ђξ north?

Infact to be frank wit U̶̲̥̅̊ some of †ђξ streotype U̶̲̥̅̊ mentioned r strange to M̶̲̥̅Ƹ. How can sumbody ask a 'graduate' or 'student' (dependin on ur status) if you can speak english? N U̶̲̥̅̊ tink †ђξ qstn was asked cos U̶̲̥̅̊ r a northerner.

Like ¶ said earlier nice write up

A fetish priest havin a christian weddin. Sumtin must be wrong in the story

¶ am yet to see how correctly sumbody who is obviously wrong a sign of maturity. @ Op ¶ did like to knw †ђξ line U̶̲̥̅̊ used in apologing. Like M̶̲̥̅Ƹ guess. 'Sori for usin ma fone to read †ђξ world of God'

¶ can't stand backward pple so ¶ would hav done one of †ђξ two dependin on ma mood. Gently let her understand dat dia is nufin wrong in usin ma fone to read †ђξ bible before sittin down or leave †ђξ bible study and neva come back especially wen she stil insist it is wrong.

Dat was how †ђξ oda day a pastor was preachin against christian using †ђξ internet cos accordin to him dia is nufin gud abt †ђξ internet. Can U̶̲̥̅̊ believe dat?

1. Parenting style. Didn't stress the nid for unity. D̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥ neva did tins 2gada as a family.
2. Different life style. A christian brother wil nt like his sister wil low morals cos of his values
3. Human nature. like sumbody said D̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥ jst grow up. Different environment,mindset etc creeps in

¶ don't mind sendin dose who hav meat n wouldn't eat it cos today is gud friday ma house address so D̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥ can send it to M̶̲̥̅Ƹ.

It is the doctrine of man. Buh seriously U̶̲̥̅̊ shldnt bother if it doesn't affect you.am sure the catholic wouldn't say it is a sin. Like sumbody pointed out for †ђξ sake of dis lent season deny urself certain tin. It doesn't mean nt denyin urself dose tins is a sin.
