Are you for real?

Very insightful article.
He's not just a very good writer but also very articulated. I want to be like the writer of this article when I grow up.

Clap for yourself. Eku ori ire. Mr Mumuni Alao's friend.

shymexx: That's what's up, my Scottish brother.

The UK got the juice now, thanks to Andy.

Proud of you!!

So y did you have to make yourself feel so good by reminding us he's ur scottish brother? Why are u not at the Wimbledon ground with ur scottish brother?
So awa Nigerians ah kin se eniyan niyen..
So we Nigerians are not humans abi?

So what happens to us that don't have a scottish brother.
Mr scottish brother on a Nigerian platform.
I'm sure people like u have never even been to the UK B4 mtcheeeww.

No disrespect tho! Murray is equally very good!

But the whole spectators were more or less Brits. Murray had that home fans advantage as compared to Djokovic..

77 years is a lot when u know u're in front of home fans.
I think that home advantage counted a lot too from him cos djokovic too is my man.

That home advantage is what brazil too rode on in the just concluded conferderations cup.

[quote author=Area_boy]I was gonna come up with a clever response until i read that last part and I fell off my chair.

So, i'm not worthy... I'm guessing you think you are right? Hmmmm reminds me of something my hombre J to the e sus said [/quote]You guys should stop this thing. I posted on this thread already and I had to give it a second tot.

Ok, why should anybody kill for god.
If I have to kill for a god, it means I'm stronger and mightier and bigger than the god. The god is supposed to be able to kill for himself. Atleast if that god can kill for himself then he by extension can kill for me.
Nao if I have a god that can kill for me,
I'l just wake up one day and say, 'god, those boko haram people are disturbing me, pls I want you to kill all of them for me, and d god does it, or I just say, 'god, that choosen church near my house is disturbing me with their speakers and constituting public disturbance with their speakerz, pls kill all of them for me, and d god does it.

That way, the god is stronger and mightier than me, I don't have to kill for the god but rada the god is killing for me.

Until someone can offer me a god that would kill for me, I don't ever want to kill for a god or kill in the name of god. Its the most ungodly thing anybody can ever think of doing.
It is barbaric. It is demonic, it is unthinkable, its not even an idea that should have been toyed with in the first place.

Somebody somewhere must av told a lie.
You can't kill for god and god would never require the services of a man to kill for him.

Are the angels not there with swords? If u believe in god, doesn't god have angels that have swords that can kill for him, ah! Angel Micheal, Angel Gabriel, u wan try! Hmm, why should god not tell angels to kill for him, why would he choose man to kill for him, man that is precious to god

Any man that kills any man for god or in the name of god has made himself a god over the man whom he took his life. Except if you are trying to say god is d man we are talking about here and so it means u are killing for your fellow man somewhere who is god over you that has brainwashed you in the name of god or killing for urself a mere man seeing urself as god.

So let mortals take responsibility for their heinous acts (pls make sure to check up dictionary definition of 'Heinous') and stop lying in the name of god for god's sake

Fine Girl.
Another proud reason to be a Nigerian.

ACN search no more.. I'm here.

Na Today ni? He offers to resign..

Was it not on this same Nairaland we saw where Obansanjo tendered his resignation letter to GEJ as wanting to resign from the PDP and GEJ accepted his resignation only for us to hear that OBJ actually wanted GEJ to c that letter and Pet him and persuade him not to retire.. We have seen this pattern one too many a times..

He should not offer to Resign. He should resign.
Offering to resign would only draw sympathy and blur peoples judgment, as people would tend to get emotional in judgment.

Left to me, I don't c anything wrong in what the couples did. Haven't you seen wedding gowns where the whole breast of the girl is outside? What exactly is the crime of the couple is what I don't get..

Nigerians are perfect in chasing shadows and leaving the major substance.

Metcheeeewwwwww! I just wasted my Time reading this rubbish.
Some idiot has come to campaign for her church "Chosen" so your pastor can see money to buy Jet to join the league of Pastors that use Private jets abi.
Pls don't ever come and advertise church on this platform again. "Blackberry Kingdom"

Seun lo ko aja ati eran po sha, ko'n se ebi yin.

God Bless the Pope. Just that he doesn't know that our Nigerian Pastors no longer use cars ooo. Private Jets is the order of the day..

1st service, 2nd service, 3rd service and 20th service. (Tithe and offering in all oo)

Hausa service, ibo service, yoruba service, french service (tithe and offering in all oo)

Monday prayer meeting
Teusday digging deep
Wednesday bible study
Thursday choir practice and workers meeting
Friday prophetic ministration.
Saturday cleaning the church
Sunday. 1st service, 2nd 3rd and 5th..

Oh! Madness , religion and corruption must have a meeting point.

Pope, pls ooo, we don't deal in cars in naija oo. We deal in jets..
Our pastors have a Humble Jet.

The pope is old school, our Naija Jet age Pastors use Jets ooo.. While congregation no see garri soak oo.

Nigeria places too much emphasis on degree and not acquiring of specific knowledge. because of emphasis placed on degree, u have student that's pass thru the university but the university doesn't pass thru them.. This is why a student would do everything to get that degree. Sleep with lecturers, carry expo into exam halls. This syndrome has helped nigeria in producing "Illiterate Graduate", even at that, when u graduate, where are the Jobs?

Nigerians don't yet know the enormity of the plague that has eaten deep into the fabric of this Nation.

Is it not in this country that Salisu Buhari forged certificate of University of Toronto Canada. If such a highly placed Nigerian can forge University degree to enter the Senate of the Federal republic, then u'l know our problem is not Strike, or HND not measuring up to B.Sc. If you look, in this country, there are plenty Forged NYSC discharge certificate, so many forged University degree like the Toronto university, so many forged Poly HND and OND result just to tender to a govt agency to be on the payroll.
We must adress this challenge of our identity as Nigerians.
A corrupt system driven by corruption, that's the truth about Nigeria.
Drastic situations requires drastic measures.. We have to take a drastic step to adress our Destiny collectively as one Nigeria.

Ask yourself. Why can't God kill for himself.
Ask yourself, why should you kill for god? Is the god weak? Are you to help god or god is to help you?

Really Sad. Very Religious but yet very Devilish People. No decency, No decorum, anybody can wake up and say God called him.. Sometimes they make me think this god is a joker. When Muslims kill in the name of god or kill for god.. I'm like, is this god so weak he can't fight for himself. When xtains opens churches indiscriminately just to enrich demselves and preach so much on tithe and offering and not addressing morale decadence, I wonder. If u ask a girl what she wants in her guy, the first thing is.. "God fearing, loving, caring" Nigerians talk of the Fear of God the most but Nigerians don't Fear God one bit.. No regulations guarding the sprouting of moshroom churches everyday.
Nigeria needs a total over-haul. Re-orientation.
Everything needs to come to a halt,
Sometimes I feel the country should have a "Reset" button and have this start again from the beginning but this time more orderly.
There's no law and order in Nigeria. We are just bunch of strange bed fellows deceiving ourselves. Not till that "Day" comes, the prediction of a "Failed State" on our collective destiny as Nigerians is imminent. Its really very difficult to admit to. But at the rate and speed we are going, we're on a Crash course. Corruption is not just in government circles in Nigeria alone, it's in me, its in you, its in every facet of life in our Daily life as Nigerians. People open churches for personal gains. People kill extra judicially, people exploit on the slightest possible chance, when people are looking, we do the right thing and when no one is looking, what do you do?

If there's truely gon be a judgement day! God of Nigerians have a lot to judge.

sick people. We plenty for nairaland.. Ur waist, ur waist.

Reminds me of Otunba, one of my best friends, when he does such tinz and u ask him why? He always goes like : "Ogbon ah ti je nor ni gbo gbo eh"

You will be addressed the way and manner you are Dressed.

You cannot sow rice and reap beans. Life is cause and effect. Actions and Reactions.

If u are a saint but loves to dress like a prostitute, I address us as that saintly prostitute. Shikena.

Na hunger never fire you.

I wish they can even privatise the whole of Nigeria sef. Let shoprite take over the country. What do you mean because its south African.
Business is comparative advantage and guided by principles of demand and supply, cost minimisation and profit maximisation.

If a pakiatani can offer me what an american can offer me, d same quality, d same quantity but cheaper, I would buy from d pakistani in as much as I'm America's number one fan.


If any Nigeria company can do better than Shoprite.. Let them take the challenge. Glo took the challenge to be a Nigerian Brand to MTN that's South African.

Nigeria is backward and u're still wanting to make it worse. What says Nigerian's product shouldn't flood international Markets like we have "Made in China", what says Nigerians should have stuffz like Shop rite at home and extend abroad.

People in Tanzania, if Dangote cement is cheaper than their Local cement, would they say because its a Nigerian cement they won't use it.

When it comes to making rational economic decisions.. If my mother is selling a loaf of bread for #50 and my enemie that I know can even poison me is selling that same loaf of bread for #49.50. If I think what that 50kobo would do to my life.. My guy! Na that my enemy own I go buy oo. Just hope d message is passed.

Its not about South African or Somalia or Kuwait. Its about Quality and Quantity of goods and services produced and at what cost. Market forces don't recognise nigerians or South africans.

I wish they could sell Nigeria to South Africa sef.

Somehow he sounds right about the 2 party system thing. This system always ends up in producing the best of the best for the job.

That is the system that produced Barrack Obama.
That's the system that Produced David Cameron

An ideal mind and Hand is the devils workshop.. When Awolowo was giving free and compulsory education to southerners, where were these Boko people?

I might want to believe Islam is a religion of peace but u don't preach one thing and practise another thing.

The worst thing that can happen to any man is "Islam and illiteracy" when a stack illiterate gets a doctrine that's says "A", illiteracy could make him interprete it as "B".. Pls don't get me wrong.. I'm not a xtain and not a muslim.. I am totally against Religion.. I honestly wish humanity can abolish religion cos religion is the worst thing that has happened to humanity. Anything that creates division is not sustainable as its often said "United we stand, divided we fall". Religion divides.

If Religion doesn't bring humanity to crumble, nothing else will.
In Christianity, we have catholics, Anglicans, protestants, seventh day Adventist and so much more..
In Islam we have the Sunni's and Shites Muslims. Just divisions upon division..

Even if Nigerian turns to an islamic state, there would still be war, cos in Egypt and Syria, Sunni muslims and Shiate muslims are still against each other..

Let Religion be abolished cos its a tool of segregation.

How come Nigeria is this corruppt and yet we have the highest amount of churches and Mosques. Invariably the corruption starts from the churches and Mosques.

We have a lot of problems and religion is the worst of it.

If u think you can Kill for God and in the name of God, then that God must be a weak God. How will u kill for God or kill in the name of God.. Can't God kill his enemies by himself.

Religion would crumble Humanity. Both Christianity and Islam alike..

Non of us has seen Jesus or Mohammed but we kill ourselves everyday for these Holy Prophets. These prophets won't commit this crimes against humanity like we do today.

Eh je ki a ronu piwada.

Islam mixed with illiteracy is catastrophic..

Islam and Education, give seasoned polished people like Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, Ahmed Mohammed Makarfi, but Islam and illitracy gives Almajiris, Boko Haram.

When Awolowo was giving free education to southerners, northern leaders were making Almajiri's of their followers. The North is some 50 years Behind d south and Boko haram is a way of showing their grievances.
They must Educate this people to illuminate their souls and minds.

Education is light.. Knowledge is power.

Let the world start considering to Abolish Religion or Religion would crumble Mankind.

Let's Abolish Religion...
If we don't abolish religion, Religion must crumble mankind.

Mistakes can happen anytime anywhere and to anybody.. Even America to Crashes planes but the thing is this Asians don't pay attention to details. You can't trust these asians, the other day in kazaskistan, Russia Attempted to launch a satellite to space.. Just few moment after launching the Rocket carrying the satellite, the Rocket burst into flames in the Air and everything came crumbling to the ground. Russia, China.. They don't yet have what it takes to be world power, America is there cos they'v earned it. The earlier these Asian Tigers starts paying attention to details the better for the world.

As if I knew these Boko boys would change tactics and strategy. This is the most cowardly Act in Warfare. Gorilla Warfare is the most Cowardly and Deadliest Art of War.
JTF has forced them to hide and take cover, nao its master minded intelligent and coordinated attacks they want to carry out.
The JTF should push them even harder. They are just trying to fight a lost battle and fight for relevance.
The Boko u c today, u shall c dem no more

We just have a National Bureau of stastistics that's not doing anything. I wish they could take and online survey to know this bitterness about electricity.. People are seriously complaining, so I can't make bold to say its improved in my area. But sincerely, it has and its still improving. Its better than what it used o be sha.

na because na Ivory coast dem win.. If to say na Uruguay. Na die. Congrats Super Eagles. Atleast dominance on the continent is very vital.

Unfortunately, my grand mother in the village doesnt use nairaland and won't get this information.. So how is my grand mother supposed to get her own Identification number? Or does it mean if u are not computer literate u are not a nigeria.. Is this how America gives Social Security number to her citizens, what's the provision for the illitrates and computer illitrates that constitute a majority of our population.. Issokay.

Oh My God! Unemployed Parents.. The Federal govt should pls bear whatever cost and help these people.. Ehyaa. So sad. The people that conducted the scan should be held for some level of damages cos whatever scan they conducted wasn't thorough enough..

My heart goes to the kids and their parents.

[quote author=ATM-CARD].He is occupying grave nw.R.I.P.It seems am d 1st 2 cmmt?[/quote]You must be a bastard. Someone is dead and you are talking of the dead like that..
They need to screen the people on this forum.

May the soul of the departed Rest in Peace.

The struggle won't Stop. Nigeria must be Great and take her place amongst the league of Advanced Nations. We are going to miss you. You truly are a Hero. Rest in Peace.

Aye ni bobo yi ma je ku..
To ba se emi nor ni, ma kuku se ju beh lor.

That's where people get it wrong. Its not money that fights corruption. Its the will power and willingness of the state. More money is more problem.

I think the whole Idea and concept of money plunged humanity to the level of corruption the world knows today

Money is the root of all evils, money is the evil. People ideology to money is what should change.

Using money to pay for goods and services is the wrongest economic concept that was ever tot of. Barter system would even still have been a better system.. How would u use money to quantify the stress and fatigue a farmer goes thru to produce.. Is it not in this country that one person went to the Nigeria security, printing and mintting Press and printed over how many Billions for himself..

So the guy that just goes to print money for himself and and d guy that just loots from government coffers and the guy that toils day and night in the sun should have d same value in money. Value could be measured in some other form other than Money.

I know money is evil and that's the evil that lives in and the fuel that powers corruption. You can't pour more fuel in a fire and expect to quench it.

Humanity's mentality is that's of slavery tied to money. People worship money.. People kill for money.

So the importance of money should be de-emphasised.
When God made man, I don't think he had the idea of Money in the equation. Man was just to live in the garden, eat fresh fruits and vegetables and fishes and goat meat and all that not to need to buy anything. Or if u needed anything, u used what u produced to exchange for what u want and that was d Barter system, tho it had its own flaws.. When u pay tithe to the priests u bring ur goat as a hunter and I bring my yam as a farmer, but today u bring Money..

Something tells me that Money concept is a wrong concept. I'm not really ground in Human sociology and Psychology, so i can't offer solution tho.

Everybody has a measure of good in him or her but just because Cash is king, anybody that holds the cash becomes the king forgetting that people can hold this cash thru dubious means and leaving other competent people wihtout cash at the mercy of those with cash.

Good people like Dangote and Bill gates can be kings to hold that much cash, but believe me, there are a lot of other people who are almost richer than Dangote and bill gates 2geda but their names would never make forbes list cos its ill gotten wealth. What do we make of such people?

Money is emphasised above excellence in our world today.. It doesn't matter how u get it.. Its who ever has it that's king and that's where the problem lies..

A lot of Nigerians are being killed abroad cos they think no one care of them and no one would ask any questions. Our Ministry of Foreign Affairs must wake up to their Duties.

Atleast this na Iveory Coast and not Uruguay.
Super Eagles u better fly oo.. Awon oniranu.
