Yesterday Nairaland, moved a thread to the front page that this so called lady have been sacked.

Now you moved another one that it was a Lie from MTN.

Make sure you confirm news before moving news to frontpage.

Seun reorientate your mod, so that they won't use your forum as a dumping ground.


But majority of people who have been shouting first to comment as if Seun has a gift for you, what is there to celebrate? (shior)

For MTN to address the issue, then it must have been news, whether credible or not.

You guys keep for headies every year. Controversy sells, period. If they don't shake up the industry, how will they maintain their relevance I. this crowded industry?
it's easy to forget the headies if you can easily predict the outcome.
But their selling point is their ability to create controversy. Like last year, making olamide create a scene, this year making tekno cause a stir.

Honestly, they know their craft.
Kudos to Animashaun.

there's no polite way to tell someone that they've dedicated their life to folly

lol but think about it. Do you really want a non-religious world where everyone lives free, no care or recourse of the afterlife? Remember not everyone is enlightened enough to handle that freedom.
Do you know how much crimes and craziness we'll have to contend with if all people fear is the law?

Honestly as much as I detest the mental bondage and slavery religion has brought upon us, I believe it's establishment was for the purpose of controlling the people and maintenance of sanity in humanity.

So when I try to liberate someone's mind and they're so resolute and plugged in, I just live and let live. As long as they respect my stance too.

Blame the Media

I always tell people not only to listen to the news but listen carefully to the news behind the news.
Communication is a process. It goes from the Information Source to Source Encoder, Source Decoder, then the final Output.
Meaning the Source is the first part of the process, in this case the media or social media. The most vital part being your ability to translate what information is being disseminated. This is dependent on your ability to decode what the source has encoded in the information. This is because the output is dependent on your ability to properly decode the information.
We live in the internet age where various information is being propagated by the media and social media. It's very easy to be misinformed as information is no longer regulated. Recently in US a lady was arrested for claiming to have been racially and religiously victimized and abused by Trump supporters. After police investigation she was arrested and confessed she only made up the story because she wanted attention.
So many of our opinions and ideologies are shaped by what we are exposed to, be it at home, church, mosque, school or work, media and internet.
It is not news that who Information is Power, hence who controls information controls the world.
It's also not news that the media is controlled by some highly influential personalities who dictate the information that is being propagated.
During the last election, we can all remember how AIT and NTA having been paid by Jonathan and PDP were notoriously spreading propaganda on Buhari. This being the genesis of the wailers.
Likewise in the just concluded US Presidential elections both Clinton and Trump camps also spread mind boggling propaganda about each other it became difficult to even know what to believe.
So much misinformation permeates the internet nowadays that can mislead undiscerning minds if you let it.
In essence, I implore all to ask these basic question when exposed to any news or information;

-Who/What is the source?
-Is it a credible source?
-Does the source have any personal interest they might be protecting with the story?
-Who/Where else can corroborate this information?
-What am I supposed to do with this information?
-How does it affect me personally?

They say you're either informed or deformed.
But I say it's better to be uninformed than misinformed.

Jesus was the bastard son of an acclaimed
virgin whose mother used hypnotic powers to delude Joseph who is a responsible carpenter into thinking he met god and god told him to accept Mary and her unborn child

this child was named Jesus and his mother kept calling him son of god and this child deluded himself into believing it, he went around gathering 12 people who shared in his delusions
this made him talk anyhow and criticise anyone even destroying people's market one day, this inevitably led to him suffering from delusion of grandeur

his village people grew tired of his antics so decided to beat the crap out of him and hung him on the cross like they do common thieves in those days, he realised his folly and quickly asked god why he forsook him and even told his imaginary father to make the "cup pass over him", but since there's no god anywhere listening no one saved him and he died, his other disciples stole his body, claimed he rose from the dead and flew to heaven on the third day; even his mother that authored the delusion didn't see him

there are deluded people who believed this man died for their misdemeanors, they pray to this dead man everyday and cover themselves with the blood of this man

these people call themselves "Christians"

its a pity Nigeria has a huge population of people that believes a troublemaking carpenter suffering from delusion of grandeur

how can a Nigerian believe a Jew died for their sins when most of the people who saw him die didn't buy that? its like Americans claiming Murtala Mohammed died for their sins while Nigerians laugh at their delusions

So much hatred you spill bruh chill.
The name is sacred and a beam of hope to many.
No need to desecrate the belief system of some if you choose not to believe.
Just like you I'm not a strong believer of religion but that doesn't mean I should disrespect it.
All I ask if if truly all these religious myths are true why no proof to back it up in our time?

Happily single?
Not possible.

You try Senior Special Advisor on Happiness and Heart Matters. So it's couples that are happy?
Receive sense.

HBD to the weevil in my beans, the white on my rice, the honey in my Honeywell.

Honestly she's one of the few celebrities that tickle my fancy. Her class and grace leaves me befuddled and bedazzled like she's bespoke to my specification.



If only I could afford the tfare to gatecrash the party and present her with my presence.

There's something about beautiful girls that just brightens your day.

Dclique:
She is right. I totally agree with her.

Btw, this keeps on getting more interesting by the day. #LongLiveMMM #TeamMMMNigeria #NoShaking

Why Chuddy (her husband aka the main man, aka MMMGuider) never comment on the issue?

He's probably on sick bed thinking of the gbese (debt) on his head. Pray he doesn't die of high BP.

Mind you, we're not making fun of them just vindicated that's all. Cos honestly we told y'all so. We even remind you say Awoof dey run belle but dog wey go lost... u know the rest.

Just take heart ehn. ndo. Pele.

If you believe these stories you'll believe anything.

Why do these things happen in Africa? Cos y'all want to believe cock n bull to justify your spirituality.

Without any such stories how church or mosque wan take sell?

Johnnyessence:
for those whose mavro is up to one month but you can't GH, don't worry; within 24 hours the eligible ones will be released so they can GH. The system has to freeze all at the same time (both the eligible and ineligible ones) so that it'll then take time to release the ones up to 30 days. NOTE: all these are measures to ensure that MMM stays alive till and beyond 2017. Our rush to GH has now been slowed down, for the sustainability of our community. MMM pays! Together we build the world!! *Guider Chuudy* This is the explanation... Dear mavrodians, my mission here is to make us properly understand this new message that seems to be causing panic out there in the hearts of all MMM participants. The message does NOT say that nobody will be able to GH until January, instead the message is saying that you will not be able to GH until after 30days that you actually made the payment of your PH and the recipient confirms. Meaning that your money must actually spend minimum of 30days outside. So for example, if you PH 100K on 5th November, and you are matched to pay on 10th November, assuming that you made the payment but the recipient does not confirm your order until 15th November when he finally comfirms receipt of your payment. From that instant (15th November), your mavros will change status to "CONFIRMED" ( irrespective of colour Blue or Green ) , so you will only be able to request for help (GH) on that particular 100k + 30% growth as from 15th December. It is not that you can't GH before January. Please spread this to all your downlines and all participants that you know.

Instead of you to go and carry placard and be protesting in front of their office (oh wait they have no office) you're here forming denial.
Don't worry by January (actually February) your eye go clear.

What part of ponzi scheme don't you get?
Wake up! You've been SCAMMED!

New school rap king.

No rapper can claim that title by consensus. It all depends on what criteria you want to base your judgment on.

If what you want is conscious rappers that write songs about the streets and societal issues then Cole, Wale and Kendrick got you.
For pop rap music that appeals to everybody especially ladies then Drake, Big Sean and Kendrick got you.

My best new sch rapper without prejudice is Drake.
But to answer the debate, Kendrick over J Cole.

Everyone should be careful during this festive
season,I don't usually share this kind of stories
but this happened before my eyes
Yesterday at about 3pm my Neighbour called an
aboki (shoemaker) to fix her slippers,she allowed
him stay in the compound while she went back
inside to continue with what she was doing ,while
he was fixing her slippers,he added something
inside before stitching it but unfortunately for him
the landlord was upstairs watching the aboki
without the aboki's knowledge....when he was
done he called her to come take her slippers that
he had finished stitching it,she came out of her
apartment and the aboki asked her to wear it
,immediately our landlord screamed from upstairs
"don't put your leg in that slippers.
He rushed down and demanded that the aboki
should wear the slippers first but the aboki
refused ,one thing led to other and the whole
compound was alerted including myself.
We literally had to use force for him to wear the
slippers and immediately he placed his leg my
friend guess what.......
The slippers just cut because the aboki no sew
am well
Have a lovely festive period

Nigerians, we love stories. I swear I was so intrigued to know the outcome. But honestly Op u no well.lol

No one is better than Messi cos he's not human.

Kudos to CR. It's his year/season.

I guess u don't have sense if u respect ur parent u won't involve sm1 parent,I wasn't talking to u or something next u involve parent,@ ur age u don't have sense pls try n grow up,hope u won't enter 2017 with dis ur foolish character...oni ra nu oshi...

My bad bruh.
Don't mean to be mean but you downplayed the seriousness of the post.

China for visiting just cos their culture and martial arts are intriguing.

For work opportunity I think Canada is the way to go especially for scientifically inclined graduates like me.

But for business purpose Germany is the way cosa their cars and spare parts business.

Of course for romantic getaway, Dubai is the haven.

I thought curtseying was supposed to be our culture so why the fuss? But to talk true this one don pass from salutation to worshipping.

odogwu190:
Abeg which of the fire are u talking about,Mountain of fire or Fire service..

Everything is a joke to us, that's why we keep suffering & smiling.
Try not to lose your sense of humour cos you don't want to face the harsh reality without it.
My best guess your parents still clothe and feed you right?

Presently Nigeria is a time bomb waiting to explode.

No economy that has experienced what we're going through has left unscathed. The signs and symptoms of our economic malady are alarming even for a conservative physician.

Not only are basic needs inaccessible, but the price of goods and services is sky rocketing and at an all time high.

NLC used to go on strike whenever Petroleum price hit N100 but now we have to cope with the price ranging from N140-150.
Civil servants used to complain when they weren't paid their stipend for a month. Now we have states where public servants haven't been paid for months.
We used to be outraged by power outage and fluctuation but now we don't even expect electricity. It's a celebration now whenever we get electricity.

Bankers would run to human rights whenever staff were sacked. These days a whole branch is sacked, who are they going to complain to?

The labour market used to be saturated, now it's super saturated.
Graduates and drop-outs are frustrated the same.
Let's be honest, this government has exceeded our elastic limit. Now we have reached our breaking point.

The reason there hasn't been a multiplier effect in crime rate beats me. Maybe because Nigerian youth have resorted to their innate entrepreneurial skills or the power of religion. People are still using their "church mind" to follow this country.
But it's just a matter of time.

When the cost of rice and garri continue to soar.
The value of Naira against dollar keeps crashing, ruining business for business men who depend on Forex.

Companies that should be recruiting are retrenching due to huge financial losses.
In fact most are packing up and closing up shop. When the cost of running the business is not encouraging.

Something has to be done fast lest the masses become desperate and lose our last restraint.
Politicians keep making empty promises. The Presidency including his Ministers keeps selling us a better promising future when the present isn't reassuring.

All I'm saying is we need to start seeing changes because we can only take this for so long, eventually when push comes to shove, there would be a revolution. We the masses will lose faith in the government and take matters into our own hands.

Until then we can only wait for the Change they promised before we claim the Change we want.

The extent Christians go to defend their pastors is incredible.

They might not know it but this is the realest depiction of marriage.

The day a man gets married is the day he dies cos his world has he knows it is dead! The woman has taken over his life.
See his crew dead too? Cos no more time to Hang out with his guys!

Op is just curious. Eyin sensors and detectors, there's no malice or envy in the tone of the write up just curiousity.

Truly both of you did your bid.
But Owonikoko... Olowolayemo.
Your cousin's part was quintessential.

I'm not even a relative yet I feel so embarrassed.
She no get family?

If not for church she'd still be alive.

Don't go to church!

hungryboy:
This is tragic I hope those responsible for this, Will face the full wrath of the law

Please clarify. Do you mean the engineers, the pastor or the spiritual forces?

Shameless people.
When politics becomes a do or die affair obviously they're no longer fighting for the people but their pockets and ego.

Amechi- thug
Wike- thug
Outcome- best thug wins.

Evidently when thug emerges as the winner the people should not complain of bad government.

balanceofterror1:
But your ZOMBIES said that all the expensive outfits you've been using since you became first lady were gifts. Now that you've proved them wrong, can you tell us where you stole the money for those expensive outfits. @ least, I have seen wrist watch of #24mil.on you.

My thoughts exactly.
She shot herself in the foot with this one.

XXLDICK:
Naija bloggers, they can do anything for money

This news is fake.
That picture has been used in a story months ago where she was said to have been kidnapped, murdered and buried before her corpse was dug out.

Stop spreading fake news. Lazy hungry bloggers.

The Great Leader

I don't blame your lot.
Only Jonathan knows how much havoc he wreaked on the country.
Him conceding to defeat was not an act of magnanimity but cowardice knowing his cluelessness would be fully be exposed to the world.

I would easily have forgiven Jonathan since he was just a puppet dancing to the tune of the CABAL but for his present sabotaging and passive aggressive actions working against Buhari's admin.

-The inexplicable fiasco in Forex
-Funding terrorism in by ND militants
-Instigating the Biafra, etc

No, he must pay for all these.
PMB is just being true to the UN treaty that's the only reason GEJ is not somewhere rotting behind bars.

That's why I've always said Nigeria is not yet matured for Democracy. We need the military to sanitize the country for about 2 terms. Democracy should come after. If we keep going like this these powers that be will keep beating the system and frustrating all PMB's efforts.

I don't see where he said the war is won. OP u smoke?

Something wrong with the link bruh. wrong format or something.
