I am sure you never watched, the video you just went on to comment. Did you notice that Adeola Fayehun of Sahara Reporters, was sarcastic a bit?
Did you also notice she truly believe she never did anything wrong?

Did you also [b]noticed that Christine Amanpour of CNN asked Mugabe same question Adeola asked Mugabe in Nigeria? Yet no one called Christine Amanpour an irresponsible journalis[/b]t?
Did you notice, how she stressed the hypocrisy of Nigerians?

Same Nigerians say her actions were non patriotic, yet same Nigerians laugh at same president muhabe and say he his a bad president.

I am not surprised, this is a major reason Africa is far from development and improvement. Nigeria is a country where truth and fairness will never happened. We are people that hate the truth, everything we do we are not sincere. What i observed over the years no matter how good and beautiful a thing is, take it to nigeria within a flash that thing becomes bad and ugly because of who we are. Look at religion both muslim and christianity, electricity. education, socio_economic life. We are far from civilisation, though we are independent we are still much in bondage. Adeola you too good to be talking about Nigeria.

Now I believe its true, when Nelson Mandela said 'it's a long walk to freedom'. As we Africans refuse to face the truth, that will ultimately set us free.

adeh39:
Being a virgin is a very good thing but its better if the lady keep it a secret, because ;

45% of guys wants a virgin for a wife and they will do anything possible to marry her even though they don't really love her.

26% of guys wants to know how it feels like to disvirgin a lady, so they pretend and deceive the lady till they achieve their aim.

18% of guys just want to get into her pants simply because they want to add her to the list of the girls that they hv disvirgined...... Those are the people that
called theirselves Professionals in disvirgining a lady.


Some of her female friends that is no longer a virgin will feel jealous, and they will try all their power to make sure she joins their league, either by convincing her or planning against her.

Some people won't even believe her, they will start calling her all sorts of names.

So I think it's better if the lady keeps quiet about her virginity. though its nothing to be ashamed of but it's better if she keeps it to herself.

Obig am so sorry for your delay. I know how it feels, I've been dere before. My first application was refused and my company was and is still my sponsor just dat ds time I got a Co sponsorship letter from my dad who is also a director in my company. The company paid my full school fees and paid in 2 million into my personal account as my living expenses as dey couldn't give me the company's statement of account. I had an account balance of 5m as my hubby paid in 2m into my acc. I guess my application was refused cos I wanted to go with my husband and daughter but ds tym, I applied alone and also had to get a letter from my MD introducing my dad as one of d directors, valued documentation of my Husband's landed properties worth 198,000,000 and I believe God ds tym so don't be devastated, don't also rush to mek anoda application, take ur tym, and reapply and God will do it for U.
