rokiatu: Lucky you.

My first one was a jerk he kept holding on, trying to make me feel guilty abt my decision I had to literally take the brutal way before he give up.

Second one didn't care as much he just let it slid. He must have been tired of the relationship too.

Eh...just two? I thought you are more experienced than that?

I am very timid about breaking a relationship but I know the ladies don't give up easily neither do I when someone breaks up with me.
Btw, I was only dumped once and I felt my whole life crashing. I was like the first guy Rokiatu described.
I imagined the ladies felt the same way when I broke up with them.

Leave her joor! Na by force? I can bet she's already seeing someone and has been comparing you with the other guy(s).

O boy! You be one bad ni.gger]

Though no love lost for Tinubu but even your president doesn't give a damn about declaring his own asset so what are we saying here?

Tinubu had been arraigned by before a court of law for breaking CCB laws or whatever but was discharged and acquitted.

So, leave him out of this. It is not a proxy battle. GEJ, your principal, is the president. Tinubu is neither a governor nor the president.
Dumbjoe should lead by example

jmaine: Even in Unilag . . .am yet to see that students who will walk up to the dept office and demand for a PHd thesis . . . . Though there is some level of freedom with the master thesis even though laced with a subtle level of control . . .but the Doctorate thesis is a big no . . .only if the owner affords you his/her personal copy . . .

Some dept don't even allow you take ordinary Bsc dissertation out due to the rabid culture of plagiarism in some youths. You remain in their office to check whatever you seek to check and stroll out . .

So abeg make people no dey jam talk for here . . . . An advice . . .Might be favorable to seek for his abstract which offcourse should be documented at the school senate than having the whole PHd thesis to yourself . . . . .

Hmmm...you have to earn your pay, don't you?
Plagiarism? Don't just try to bamboozle anyone here. It is for that reason that it should be easily accessible so people can know it was someone's original idea. Even foreign dissertations are available online! My elder brother did his PhD at St. John's University, Rome and his dissertation is on the internet. You only need to search for his name and his thesis would be glaring at you, maybe not the whole but at least some part of it.

@StKingsley

Well, I do not know any of the characters you have written about from close quarters, but I have read Prof. Osundare's books as a student in the university. He is an intellectual giant and his work precedes him wherever he goes. I would like to see what your President's thesis has contributed to knowledge. Please don't even make any attempt to ridicule him.

I bet you were not in Nigeria when these same people were criticising Obasanjo, their own kinsman.

No sir, I disagree, international engagements do not supercede domestic demands, that is why we have rulers and not leaders. Did Jonathan deliver any address at the summit? Do you think a David Cameron would be spared if he had abandoned his people like Jonathan did?
Some of you claim to be dispassionate, yet you spew imbecillic arguments. Was Bakare not the arrowhead of SNG that campaigned for Jonathan's enthronement during the days of the cabal? Was that not before he offered to be a Vice presidential candidate?
We will criticise GEJ because out of almost 200 million Nigerians, he offered himself amongst others and he was voted believing that he was the best candidate. He is the PRESIDENT and not Odumakin. He deserves all the scrutiny he can get!

I hope whoever is in charge can do better than Jega.
Wish you all the best!

kutchs: @Demdem you are so shameless. Why come here spreading lies when everyone knows what the truth is. In ur quest to discredit you resort to lies. Why not approach the authorities of UNIPORT to verify GEJ‘s doctorate degree, it is idiots like you who have never defended a postgraduate thesis in ur miserable life that think GEJ‘s fake.

Maybe I have neither written nor defended a doctoral thesis, but I have written and can always defend my Masters thesis. If you care to know, I'll refer you to the school and the exact department where it is being kept.
However, I'd rather not have a PhD, than being someone who has but his utterances are like those of toddlers.

'Woe betide the land whose king is a child...'

Zutchy: Demdem am sorry to say this but you are such acn egotistic human beign,I so totally hate your kind of people,you can never carry out an intellectual argument,or be a constructive critic,you must always resort to name calling once you see the tide turning against you,that's too bad,and you are a blunt liar,the presidents thesis is there for all to see,maybe next time you will follow due process if you want to get results,stop following the back door.and by the way,the president has declared his assets to the CCB,he just refuses to make it public,which is his choice to make.i

Does he need the FOI to access the thesis too? Well, he was truthful enough to admit that he attempted it through a student. But I can bet my last kobo that the result would have been the same if he had gone through the 'official' means.

Demdem: I was in Uniport live and i asked one of the students within the faculty to assist in achieving this while i stayed nearby. never wanted to expose myself anyway. he was asked some questions which i wouldnt want to divulge but the bottom line was he came back empty handed. i was just being curious u know. Having the retardeen's so-called thesis probably may shed more light to his dumbness and stupidity.

I am not surprised. We all know the extent they can go to cover his inadequacies. Someone wrote here that it might have been kept because of his current position. Presidential thesis my foot! What better time to prove his intellectual competence than now? I bet he could not have written the thesis himself if he was already at OMPADEC.

Demdem: U sound as if its that easy. ordinary retardeen's thesis and works from UNIPORT has been taged "official secret". I was there today. Nonsense.

Yeepa! Do you know the thought just occurred to me yesterday? I could not believe that this man actually wrote a PhD thesis regardless of the discipline.

Bukkyade: Another feeble attempt to take merit away from the presidents speech. Why are haters resorting to lies against the president? What did this man do them? Isn't this the same chat I watched and enjoyed? Or are they referring to something different. I heard the president say loudly that he had earlier instructed Aganga to invite international auditors to investigate NNPC. What is a lie about it? You guys should leave Jonathan Jooor!

Please could you list the merits?

"The day the international community gets to know that the President of Nigeria  could not travel because of Boko Haram,we are finished"

Evidently, our dear president cares about the way outsiders perceive him than we do. I could recall sometimes last year when Nigerians were criticising him and all he could come up with was "President Obama commended me". What an inane and childish comment!

"...the same Boko Haram will start attacking mosques to instigate Muslim youths to attack Christians "

The President Lied! By Yinka Odumakin

I have not set my eyes on Prof.Funso Aiyejina for about 23 years now but every now and then the sheer musicality of his voice resonates in my ears anytime I flash back to his poetry class.Aiyejina was one of the crop of bright intellectuals at the Literature Depatment of the  Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU),Ile-Ife under whose feet I learned  several years back.The great teachers included :Profs .Biodun Jeyifo,  Ropo Sekoni,Oyin  Ogunba,G.G Darah,Adebayo Williams and a host of others.

Aiyejina's poetry class was an exciting one for me as I looked forward each moment to listen to him sing poetry into our ears.Two poems he sang that would never leave my consciousness are "Letter To Lynda" written by him and Odia Ofeimum's " The Poet Lied".

It was the latter that rushed to my memory as I listened to President Goodluck Jonathan address a media chat on national  television on Sunday night.Under normal circumstance, the word of a president should flow with so much integrity that people would not ordinarily be tempted to cross-check as any holder of such office would not be expected to speak untruth to his countrymen and women.

However, I've learnt to double check whatever the President says ever since he said he was not aware of Article 7(C) in his party constitution until his opponents brought out his signature at the meeting where the provision was approved .I must say though that I was still ready to grant him the indulgence that he could have suffered some amnesia given that the meeting took place about 6 years earlier.

But my bag of indulgence for him became empty when I heard Dr Jonathan say "Nigerians should not forget that long  before the House of Representatives set up its probe I have set up the Ribadu Committee to look into the problems in the oil sector.If I have anything to hide would I  go for Ribadu who is accepted as an anti-corruption giant by Nigerians?"

I could not believe my ears that the President of Nigeria would  manipulate events that occurred early this year to torture our memory and still keep a straight face.Even a toddler would recall that the House of Representatives convened a special session on Sunday,6th January 2012;to deliberate on the fuel subsidy crisis during which it set up the Lawan Farouk Committee to probe the subsidy regime.It took exactly a moment after,with all the mind - boggling revelations from the House probe  for the Petroleum Minister to announce the Nuhu Ribadu Task Force on the petroleum industry .

And shortly after this blatant untruth,one of the panelists asked the president if Nigerians should still trust him in spite of all that have happened in the last one year and he still answered in the affirmative!

Now the big question is how anybody would believe the President when he denied being the director of the Otedola-Farouk opera after telling us that February comes before January and the gap between is "long"?.
I almost passed out when the President admitted that Otedola ,Dangote and co have always been around every PDP president from Obasanjo through Yaradua and to him " but they are not patrons of the ruling party since they are not on our Board of Trustees"

And the big one played out in the course of the interview when two  numbers were displayed for people to call in and ask the president questions.I felt a practical joke was on for a president who struggles with written speeches to now face live questions.Even the questions from the panel which must have been given to him ahead presented their challenges .Where the president was expected to enunciate concrete policy directives,he kept on saying "did you not listen to the minister when he talked on that", "I don't want to contradict the minister","I don't want to have the figures of our debts" and "I'm not the one managing the economy but Ngozi Iweala who has reputation".As if he was saying he lacks what NOI has!

My apprehension that the call-in gesture was a gimmick  was confirmed as I called the two numbers and none was active..I have since called a lot of respected Nigerians who told  me they had a similar experience.Among those who also tried but in vain like me are Prof.Niyi Osundare and Pastor Tunde Bakare.One of the other people I called cracked my ribs when he said " the few calls that made it in could be from Reuben Abati's office".

By and large,it was a punishing task listening to Mr President for two hours Sunday night as he stumbled from one comedy of error to another.Like him saying that he has not declared his asset as a matter of  "principle" and that when he did so as Vice-President it was at the insistence of Yaradua whom he told  they were creating an  "anomalous " situation.He went on the arrogant lane by saying that he would not give a damn if the media talked about his non-declaration of assets till kingdom come. And his parting  shot was "is it my declaration of assets that would stop Boko Haram?".But I didn't hear in two hours talking about  what he is doing to stop Boko Haram even as his June deadline to exterminate the group remains a few days to end!

If anything all I heard him do was setting agenda for Boko Haram when he said "...the same Boko Haram will start attacking mosques to instigate Muslim youths to attack Christians ".

The  most pathetic non-coordination of thought of the night came with the president defending his Brazil trip when Kaduna and Yobe were burning thus :"The day the international community gets to know that the President of Nigeria  could not travel because of Boko Haram,we are finished".

But the  President within the same interview explained that the reason he had yet to visit Damaturu  and Maiduguri ,two hottest flash-points of Boko Haram was because the airport is ill-equipped for his plane to land;and that he could not travel  by helicopter for security reasons.

Now that the international community know that our president who junkets around the world but cannot maintain airports at home  is scared of flying    helicopter in his country for the fear of Boko Haram,what is left of us?

Truth is that our rulers, which include President Jonathan- finished us before Boko Haram !

Amya: I've been around and in no way am I disillusioned by books and movies. I've dated Nigerian and non-Nigerian men. Men cheat generally yeah, but Nigerian men go the extra mile.

only you have dated Nigerian and non-Nigerian men? Hmmmm... You must be a veteran in the game o. Methinks it's because Nigerian men know people like you, hence their unwillingness to commit themselves to anything serious.
There is love at first sight though it's ability or inability to work out depends on the people involved. There are instances of people who courted for years and ended up separated. Yet, I have friends who told me they loved girls on their first meeting and ended up getting married.

@OP


You forgot to include the case of Bagauda Kaltho attempting to bomb the Durbar Hotel in Kaduna in the Abacha era.
Could you please stop all these? Much as I am not blaming any section (be it religious or ethnic) solely for these senseless killings, I still believe that the onus is on the Muslim North to prove to other Nigerians that they are tolerant of religious other inclination.

Lest I be accused of contradicting myself, I have stated elsewhere that the FG is responsible for the security of lives and properties of ALL Nigerians. However, your attempt to suggest that Christians are responsible for bombing their own churches and killing their own (including Madalla et al) beggars belief.

Timehin: Everyone plays the "Blame game" while Nigeria weeps blood daily.

Opposition parties and individuals who have been part of the problem never proffers solution but blame.
With such mindset and attitudes how do we get out of the woods?

As for the likelihood of el-rufai being a boko haram apologist? I wouldn't be surprised cos this is naija where anything can happen for selfish reasons and the dude is a politician too.

He calls himself a ruffler of feathers but I believe he mostly ruffles FG/GEJ feathers cos of his future political ambition thereby presenting a semblance of credible opposition like the loudmouth & fraudulent ACN leadership instead of engaging the Criminal PDP govt on the way forward.

For naija to move forward we must all eschew selfishness and consider ourselves as stakeholders in the nigerian project.

Like you, I can't absolve any of the political class of any blame in the whole mess. Their inordinate ambitions have all contributed to our parlous state.
From the governors and godfathers who have turned the resources of states to their personal fortunes, the indolent legislators and the president, they are all guilty!
I might not agree with the whole of El-Rufai's submission on deprivation, I agree with some part of it which turns the polity into a feudal system. We the people are the vassals and unfortunately we can't act cohesively due to their evil machinations of ethnic and religious divisions.
I long for the day we (the people) will be able to shake off the shackles of their deliberate deprivation of the people's right to our collective wealth. Oh happy day!

mufc009: Ensure security in his hometown?
Are you crazy or what?
Is El-rufai Jack bauer or Jumong?
Are you the one ensuring security in your village?
I can't bet you've never been to that hole

Bros, you really made my day. Do you mind the charlatans on Nairaland? With what is El-Rufai supposed to ensure security, with Hisbah? Police or Armed Forces (as if he is the C in C)? With the same BH he is accused of being its sponsor?

I am a christian, much as I am saddened by the happenings in the North, I can't think of anyone else to hold responsible besides the president who swore to defend Nigeria against internal and external aggression.

Please pray we don't encounter external aggression in the country, we can only imagine the outcome.
