Orlando Owoh: Stop beating about the bush. Where is Amaechi dissenting? Has he said he wants to leave APC. The President may be using state bodies against perceived enemies, Amaechi is not afraid. The President shouldn't be surprised when he becomes the first former President to be senteced (27 years). He will thus live up to his expection and that of Okupe of being the Mandela of Nigeria.

Orlando Owoh: That is the same strategy Rhino.5 used against Sexkillz. He created four threads, out of which two were against Sexkillz while the rest two were in support of him. Unknown to Sexkillz, whom he described as a goat, he (Sexkillz) was quoting and liking the handles in his support.

Orlando Owoh: Rotimi Amaechi has nothing to lose in 2015, he is a second term governor, except he is eyeing the Senate. But for your President, he should just forget it and be like the Mandela Doyin Okupe described him as.

Wa 'alaykumus salaam warahmotullaahi wabarokatu. Ma shaa Allaah.

tbaba1234: So many Shahadas Masha Allah. I hope the new muslims are supported because that is where muslims fail.

Taking Shahada is easy. Helping them through this phase is the important thing.

Very true. In fact, it is kinda worrisome the nonchalant attitude we put up to doing proper follow-up on these reverts. May Allaah make it easy for us to be more devoted towards looking out for this category of people, Aamiin.

gedtalks: If ASUU is actually concerned about the state of Naija universities, they would have started cleaning the mess from within by removing the bad eggs amongst themselves first. Open ur eyes Great Nigerian students.

Did you really think this through before typing it?

For God's sake, when has it become the duty of ASUU to recruit capable lecturers and fire the ones found wanting?

#Pathetic

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Argentina, Nigeria, Bosnia and Iran.

Cameroon and Ghana unlucky though.

Group D no nice too sha

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Argentina, Nigeria, Bosnia and Iran.

Cameroon and Ghana unlucky though.

Brunei scholarships is currently on, for those who might be interested and entry closes sometime around January I think. You can see from their GDP per Capital that the country is economically stable.

PDP House of commotion... A movie series filled with suspense, betrayal, intrigues, deceit and so much more.

Coming to your TV screens soon... You can't afford to miss it!

ITbomb: Why r girls so easily deceived

Cos they are girls.

Did you know I thought Celebrities are those that are capable of celebrating their birthdays?

Do you know I still can not 'categorically' tell you what qualifies one as a Celebrity?

Did you know Mr. 'my oga at the top' is the only known 'celebrity' that didn't make a dime from his fame?

Did you know Google can tell you what you didn't know?

Did you know the police is your friend only when you can 'settle'?

Did you know GEJ proposed to his wife without shoes and she answered him with 'yes, I does'?






...And did you know I didn't know you didn't know these things

Don't mind these Nairaland 'chicks' criticizing you. It's not like Oshiomhole is even as good-looking as you are. Wait till you get the big break now and they will be like 'Oh my Gosh, he's so cute'.

E go sha beta, keep the faith.


BTW though, try check up the meaning of GYM to avoid giving them a point to blast you next time.

I am not a fan of GEJ, but I really wish him and his family well.

They are humans like me and it will bring me no good for evil to befall them.

May God forgive us all, cos we are all not good people in the eyes of one person or the other.

All of you coming here to take sides should keep sweating over nothing.

All I can read from the body language of Rotimi and Ngozi is the exchange of romantic notes.

Can't you see it guys, they are in LOVE

They are probably only coding the stuff to avoid press wahala. I know these signs when I see them.

These two must be feeling like Scofield and Sarah, feeling they have successfully fooled everyone with thier coded messages; not me sha.

Let them both continue scripting their lovey-lovey story. I am finding it quite romantic.

Hmmn! Love nwantintin.

#I want to specially dedicate P-Square's Ifunanya to these love-birds. Ngo and Rotimi, please, take centre stage. C'mon, don't be shy.

[quote author=O.M.E]Kemi is good, she's a friend and a departmental mate. Congrats ![/quote]help us extend our felicitations to her when you can. We indeed rejouce with her and the others too.

le bien connu: i am begining to beleive the ET things. girls and not boys are now getting all the prizes. but why?

I am not surprised, when the girls will be inside reading like "daddy's little baby", the boys will be roaming the streets like Robin hood, visiting one girl after another.

Moderators should please help create a space for this on the frontpage, for the benefit of everyone it might be useful to. Thank you.

Please log on to this web link now-www.mofat.gov.bn/index.php/announcement

Scholarship offers available. Saw the link somewhere on FB and decided to share with my Nairaland family.

From the brief research I made, Brunei Darussalam is a small country with an estimated population of less than 500,000 people. It is rated high in in Human development index and has very good climate.

It is a predominantly Muslim country that accommodates people of every faith.

From what I can remember, the country is quite wealthy and their king used to be worth about $20 billion; I am not sure of his status now.

The only challenge you might face in applying is that some years ago, when I first learnt about this scholarship, the nearest Brunei embassy was in Ghana or so. You can still give it a try now though. Goodluck everyone.

HoLEEsinner: Its so pathetic how people think, why can't Mr, Gov give her 2m and a good job that very he told her 'Go and die' if not that the incident was taped, I bet there would be nothing like 2m and a job, the so called 'Greek gift' would be used to campaign in future, this politicians are just ruthless dogs, what about other widows and road side sellers who needs empowerment? Show of shame at its peak. The damage have been done.. Now the widow has turned into a politcal tool for both parties(APC and PDP) what a shame.

point there is The PDP chairman is a learner. Why didn't he make plans to reward the woman before leaking the video, according to his claim.

It's just laughable that he unknowingly helped his opponent score one point better than him.

As OLX will say, sell it (her).


And you can log on to www.arsenal.com to pick a replacement from the 'Arsenal Ladies'.

Goodluck though.

BTW, why didn't she add a third option of 'or get another wife'? Women sha!

wesley80: Berem, I know you can be daft sometimes but if you really believe what you just posted then you're 'dafter' than I thought.

How do you explain the lecturers that went on Channels TV to lambast the leadership of their union and even rubbish the struggle embarked upon by their union.

If those guys hadn't been bribed, they will not come on air to say it is unjust for their union to call on the FG to pay the outstanding four months salary.

If you are a slowpoke, some of us are not. Stop trying to drag us than to your level.

Airforce1: Abati is my dads friend
He can't say or do shiiit
Trust me.

He will even lambast his wife for belittling his paymaster, not to talk of a friend's son.

You never hear so no permanent friend or foe in politics?


#team Abati must fire back

pDude: Poor man talk

No condition is permanent. GEJ once had no shoes, but now has 10 jets at his service.

#team e go beta!

Oh Lord! I really need a B.Sc or a B.Tech right now. Any one could help a brother? Opportunity is not constant o.


#ASUU, una don see the result now

LagosShia: fine not pictures,but their names.my question still stands.isnt it "shirk"? even on the kiswa,the name of the Saudi king appears.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VO9vFWvc6E


they should have all been equally mentioned rather than projecting only one instance of a deviant group, because that deviant group is an offshoot of an offshoot of the "other side of the divide" you like to paint with your dark brush.



there is nothing Sunni-Shia.you are trying to turn it like that, so that you can run to click on the report button to silence any voice that differs with yours.you are good at doing that because you don't tolerate the views of others, and ignorance is bliss as some people think.i wont go into the issue of Hisham Ibn Hizam and where he was born so I don't make your allegation appear true.i'd leave that for you to do research on it or for another thread.nonetheless,such details should still have been mentioned,regardless whether it was one or two persons born in the Ka'ba, or who was born in it first.i am purely basing my points about the Ka'ba.there is no issue of sunni or shia.i didn't even use those words.i only focused on the topic,yet you tried to drift and take my points on a subject I didn't raise.

Guy, abeg carry this your trash somewhere else and stop acting like a Munafiq.

Even a slowpoke knows what rubbish you are driving at.

It is your choice if you want to die on that Shia crap you practise, don't try fooling us with playing the victim act.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities,
ASUU, has accused the federal government
of taking money round campuses to
influence some lecturers to abandon the six-
month old strike embarked upon by the
union.
Making this allegation during a television
programme, the chairman of the University
of Lagos chapter of ASUU, Karo Ogbinaka,
said the union was aware that some agents
of the government have been going round
the campuses to influence lecturers to
abandon the strike.
Ogbinaka condemned the federal
government for trying to break the strike by
trying to influence some lecturers rather
than addressing the issues. “Government is
just changing its tactics by bribing members
to break the strike. That won’t resolve the
issue. Rather than address the issue, they
are attempting to break the strike,” he said.
A congress scheduled for today by the
Union at UNILAG was shifted till tomorrow
to address this and other issues. Ogbinaka
said the move to break the ranks of the
lecturers by influencing them with money
will fail.
He also flayed the government for
sponsoring market women to protest
against the striking lecturers. Ogbinaka said
the move will ultimately fail because the
lecturers are resolute.
The federal government last week issued
the university lecturers a 4 December
ultimatum to resume classes or be sacked.
But ASUU described the threat as a big joke.
The union has asked parents to ignore
government’s directive for students to
resume at their various universities because
lecturers are still on strike.
The union asked parents to keep their
children at home pending the resolution of
the dispute between the government and
the lecturers.
