I don't know why anything that has to do with the Arab world excites Buhari. This is something he could easily have sent someone to represent him. He mustn't attend every darn occasion. he seems more interested in what happens outside the country than inside the country he was elected to govern.

What in God's name are they kidnapping a 75 year old woman for? This country na wa.

Will anything positive come out of his visit?

I thought Atiku was a Buhari supporter. Has he changed his mind?

This is how they kill people for nothing. I don't know how someone can be drunk and holding a gun at the same time. That guy is really lucky to be telling the story. Some people were not so lucky.

They usually state their admission requirements for both undergraduate and graduate students. If it's not that important then they will likely state it there. You can also contact them by email to confirm or wait for people on here who have gone through the same process.

Why not check University of Saskatchewan website to see if they waive GRE or not.

There is a growing trend among Nigerian men and that is the fact that they tend to marry late compared to when their parents go married. Here are reasons believed to be responsible for this new trend of late marriage among Nigerian men.

http://ovoko.com.ng/5-reasons-nigerian-men-marry-late/

1. Bride price
One of the reasons men marry late is that they are afraid of the demands that they will have to meet up to when it's time to pay the dowry. It is no news that dowry has become a way for some families to make money off prospective In-laws. Some demand as much as 1 million both in cash and material things. So, some men will rather wait till they think they are financially capable of meeting up to the demands.

2. End to Bachelorhood
Getting married to one woman is tantamount to having a cable network with an option to watch only one channel. This is why some men hesitate to get married as it will hinder their escapades with other women. So, they want to have all the fun they can have before thinking of marriage.

3. They will be tied Down
Apart from fact that marriage ties men to one woman. A lot of men are jittery towards marriage as it may mean that they won't be able to do things they used to do. Like hanging out with the guys and flexing around town.

4. Lavish Weddings
We are at a time when throwing lavish weddings is a sign of future marital bliss. So, everyone doesn't want to be the odd one out. We all want that wedding of our dreams coupled with the pressure from our intending bride. So, men will wait till they have made the kind of money that can make them have their wedding in the sky. Lol.

5. Finding the right one
He who finds a good wife, finds a good think. That's a popular saying that a lot of men take very seriously. They don't want to go into a marriage where they will regret all their lives. That is why they want to marry the right woman even if it means waiting a long time to do so, they will.

Delta and Anambra before PH, wow, no kano no Enugu.

PH is a city and not a state. We're looking at the entire state and not just one city in the state.

The best way to make him break up with you is by breaking up with him first.

Here is a list of states in Nigeria that are highly urbanized beyond the state capital or the largest city.

http://ovoko.com.ng/10-most-urbanized-states-in-nigeria/

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45771285/Ovoko/kaduna-state.jpg

Ogun state has been growing in leaps and bounds owing to its close proximity in Lagos. Ogun state can boast of things that other states except Lagos and Abuja cannot boast of. Apart from Abeokuta which is the state capital, other towns have held their own in different parts of the state. Some notable mentions include Ijebu Ode, Sagamu and Sango Otta which due to its close proximity to Nigeria’s economic capital, probably houses the largest industrial estate in Nigeria.

5. Rivers
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45771285/Ovoko/rivers-state.jpg
The reason is because Port-hacourt is miles ahead of other town in the state but when you look outside the state, you will come to appreciate some of the other cities that Rivers state boast of which are more urbanized and wealthy than some state capitals. The likes of Omoku, Bonny Island, opobo, Khana , Okrika, Ahoada and smaller towns like Okwuzi/Mgbede are also pulling their weight.

4. Delta
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45771285/Ovoko/delta-state.jpg

From Warri, which is the economic capital to Asaba which is the political capital. Other smaller cities such as Agbor, Ughelii, Sapele are also holding their own.

actually nigeria has d longest bridge nd not flyover which is in lagos.

Do i even know the difference? Do you care to elucidate?

This is something we don't see in Nigeria. We don't value beauty in this parts. Never knew a flyover could be this beautiful in black Africa.

It's also a shame that Ghana has just taken thie title of the longest flyover from us. I guess we have to go back to the "Giant of Africa" rhetoric.

So Lailai don marry. Wey some guys dey target her if dem no fit get linda Ikeji.

The moral of the story is that you should remarry before blogging.

RIP Bro.

The recession is real. Zenith will not be sacking people just for the heck of it. They're feeling the bite and have no choice but to slim down their work force.

There's nothing wrong with your head boy.

Nice tips. I personally like sitting in the front sit and have been reminded severally on the dangers of doing so.

is this not the same lady that bought a car with her small business?

Snakes? Lai lai. They will definitely outlive humans.

What kind of recognition do you want from the Nigerian government?

Is he related to our own Dasuki?

So, it's possible for a traditional ruler to be deposed while still alive?

Isn't it visible to the blind and audible to the deaf?
