Yes, that's true. He was the Minister of Education at the time (he was later replaced by Ben Nwabueze).

That's just a rumour. Bongos Ikue said that he only met Maryam once.

willorie:

SUVs were mainly used as review vehicles and shepherds at that time (Mainly the Mercedes Benz G Wagon [predecessor of the G Class] and the Land Rover Defender. There were many of them at CVU. The Land Rover Discovery joined the fleet around '92 or '93).

Naptu why is Nyako wearing a beard? isn't it unmilitary?

It's discouraged, but quite a few senior military officers had beards. Captain Olufemi Olumide also had a beard in the 1970s.

Point of correction. Alhaja Lateefa Okunnu is the mother of Justice Okunnu

Thanks. Corrected.

I've finally found it again.

After Mandela’s release from jail in 1990, he visited Nigeria, and received a $10 million campaign contribution for the ANC. There were great expectations that these developments would mark the birth of a strong alliance between Africa’s two powerhouses.

2) Copy the web address (url) of the picture and paste it into your post.

3) The web address usually begins with https. Remove the 's', so that it becomes http (your picture won't show if you don't remove the 's'.

4) Place the web address between the [img] and [/img] codes.

Here is an example. Quote this post and read it so that you can see the web address of the picture below.

Nelson Mandela's first visit to Nigeria after being released from prison (May 14th, 1990).[/size]

......

It is a year since South African legend, Neslon Mandela died, so we take a look at his first visit to Nigeria after he was released from prison in 1990.

ANC Vice President, Nelson Mandela was released from prison on February 11th, 1990. He went on a thank you tour of countries that had supported the anti-apartheid struggle. This, of course, included Nigeria, which had provided funds, training and sanctuary to the ANC. Mr Mandela had stayed in Nigeria in 1962. He lived in the home of Chief Mbazulike Amaechi (The Boy Is Good) at the request of Chief Nnamdi Azikiwe (the Governor General of Nigeria and Chief Mbazulike's leader in the NCNC). Dr Mandela met with Mbazulike and Azikiwe in 1990, to thank them for their assistance.

You have already provided us with Nairaland juju against the Black South African's apartheidic genocidal Operation Dudula.

It is now our Nairaland duty to serve it to them so that they may learn and be cured of their unknowing and not appreciating those who were with them when they needed.

Share the opening post everywhere everyone please, so that South Africa may be taught to be kind to their neighbours who loved them when they needed it!

Sorry your image no work, naptu2. I was too, very annoyed when they removed the function.

15 lessons from
" THE PSYCHOLOGY OF MONEY " 📚
-
1. Money is a tool.
It's not an end in itself.

2. Don't let your emotions control your spending.
Be mindful of the emotions that can drive you to overspend, and learn to control them.

3. Invest for the long term.
The stock market will go up and down in the short term, but over the long term, it goes up.

4. Don't try to time the market.
No one can predict the future, so don't try to guess when to buy and sell stocks.

5. Diversify your investments.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Spread your money across different asset classes to reduce your risk.

6. Don't be afraid to take risks.
But don't be reckless either.

7. Pay yourself first.
Make sure you save money for your future before you spend it on anything else.

8. Live below your means.
The less you spend, the more money you'll have to save and invest.

9. Don't compare yourself to others.
Everyone is on their own journey. Focus on your own financial goals and don't worry about what others have.

10. Be patient.
Building wealth takes time. Don't expect to get rich quick.

11. Be grateful.
Appreciate what you have, both in terms of your financial situation and in your life in general.

12. Help others.
One of the best ways to feel good about your money is to use it to help others.

13. Be kind to yourself.
Everyone makes mistakes. Don't beat yourself up if you make a financial mistake. Just learn from it and move on.

14. Never give up.
The road to financial independence is long and winding, but it's worth it. Keep working hard and never give up on your goals.

15. Money can't buy happiness.
But it can buy peace of mind and security.

The Psychology of Money is a book about the emotional side of money. It's about how our feelings about money can lead us to make bad decisions. It's also about how to overcome these emotional biases and make better financial decisions.

I hope you find these lessons helpful.
