Travel › Re: Have You Ever Missed A Flight? by pappilo(m): 11:11pm On Nov 04, 2014
Missed Arik from LHR to LOS due to one stupid taxi driver wey go carry me pass the worst possible route. The annoying thing is I 'advised' him we should go through the city but he insisted on taking his prefered route.

As the guy na senior Naija bros, I no too argue. When himself see say the traffic wey we enter no get part 2, he parked his car at the side of the road and escorted me on public transport. We took the train, Tube, Heathrow Express and then Heathrow Connect but by the time I got there, check in was closed cry

I begged the check in staff and she gave me a boarding pass but wouldnt check in my luggage. This wasnt of any use as my mate was getting married in 2 days and all his and the groomsmen gear was with me so I needed my luggage to go with me.

Arik werent flying for the next 2 days so I had to buy a new one-way ticket with a different airline for the next morning for £550 and also paid £100 for a Premier Inn.

The most annoying thing is I bought the ticket like 6 months earlier to get a cheap price but I ended up spending business class money on 2 tickets.

I swore never to use Arik again but I just bought Arik again yesterday for a flight 6 months away. If you see the price difference between Arik and BA/Virgin, you self go fear fear.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Protesters Burn Burkina Faso Parliament Building by pappilo(m): 8:36am On Oct 31, 2014
Do you not wonder why the West never get involved in popular revolutions against sit tight leaders in sub Saharan Africa?

People like Museveni - 28yrs, Biya - 39yrs (including 7 as PM) and Compaore - 27yrs are puppets of the west so they get a free pass. They will however fight those that refuse to be their puppets e.g Gaddaffi and Mugabe (I dont support these ones being in power forever though)

Compaore under direct orders from France assasinated Sankara because he had achieved in less than 4 years what no one else could do in the 23 years since independence. France couldnt just let its control on tiny Upper Volta slip away, they had to get rid of the man of the people.

Africans are smarter and more enlightened now so I am confident that after the exit of the current crop of sit tight leaders either by natural death or popular revolutions, the era of dictators in civillian clothing in Africa will be consigned to the history books.

wanna buy penny stocks? buy IKEJA HOTEL...from 70k to 2.15k in 3 weeks
still with an immense upside potential.
also with an eps of 83k per share...believe me for a N2 stock..thats pretty impressive.

Dont quote me but I see ikeja hotel rising to 4naira by November.
N3.21 today. If I could short this.... Will definitely fall back to sub N1 as there is nothing driving this bullish run. Just speculation.

A lot of people dont get it. Its not about her having her own domain name. It is about plagiarism. Even if she gets her own website tomorrow, goes back online and continues as she has always done, she will be shut down again.

She needs her own original articles. Maybe user submitted like WSHH and the user gets a cut.

abbakacici: why should i care, how much my wife make, because all i know is that all the bills from feeding, clothing, school fees accommodation etc are my responsible. and if my wife think that the house or food am providing is below her standard then we can go our separate ways. may be is my african ego but i dont believe wives should contribute to upkeep of the family nor matter how much they earn. may be once a while if the husband is low on cash and wife may help out.
So what will your wife use her salary for? Buy lace and gold?

Bruv I just saw an AFP video on Youtube in which you could see Nigerian soldiers running away while being shot at by BH.

In the same video you can see BH loading the spoils of war into trucks seized from NA. BH even had an APC with a gunner on it.

This topic is misleading

12th top selling album in the WORLD is completely different from 12th top selling WORLD music album.

World music is one category of very many such as country, jazz, gospel e.t.c.

Infact on the Billboard album charts page, world music is the last in a long list.

FIFA dont get political.

Nairaland General › Re: Nigerian Troops Kill Sheik Zakzaky’s Son, Others In Zaria by pappilo(m): 10:05am On Jul 26, 2014
Lawprince: [b]Haba!!! I just got convinced that the problem with Nigeria is beyond its leadership. Citizens with no smallest sense of sympathy for humanity and human rights are the main reason why we deserve the demonic leadership we get. Our tribalism and religious sentiments have been more of an instrument of discord in the hands of the devil that Godliness.

Nigeria is peculiar in the sense that in no part of the world in no part of the world today will its people support any such clam down on any citizen's right to life and human dignity with so much pride and fulfilment as has just been displayed by many Nairalanders on this thread. If the attack had been against armed militants in support of Biafra or Oduduwa or something else, the reaction we will give will vary depending on what sentiment we are inclined to. This 'Nigerian' orientation is indeed very sad.

I hope a time comes when the Northerners will have respect for the lives and rights of the Southerners, and the Southerners will equally see lives as equal. When a Nigerian Muslim will see it as a duty to protect his Christian neighbours and vice versa.

But until then, we all remain indirect subjects of Shekau in line with our ideologies. The only difference between us and Abu Qaqa is that he is on the field and we are not. In fact, our ideologies only makes us a civilian wing of the Boko Haram.

God save Nigeria.[/b]
Brother, you make too much sense.

Imagine our so called educated youth asking people to demonstrate against BH which is a terrorist group. You might as well call a demonstratiin against 419ers, kidnappers and armwd robbers.

Anyone with even half a brain cell will know you can call a demonstration against a 'legitimate' government but it will be extremely stupid to demonstrate against a terrorist group or criminals

And for the clowns saying why are people demonstrating in support of Palestinians, did you ask the same questions when Michelle Obama and other foreigners were supporting the #bringbackourgirls campaign?
Nairaland General › Re: Nigerian Troops Kill Sheik Zakzaky’s Son, Others In Zaria by pappilo(m): 7:25am On Jul 26, 2014
32 Israelis dead, 31 of those were soldiers. 800 palestinians dead, 700 of those were civilians including women and children.

I thought terrorists were the ones who killed civilians.
