Sports / Caf President Issa Hayatou Claims Nigeria Still How CAF £6 Million For TV Rights by ralfo85(m): 10:26pm On Feb 09, 2013
Caf president Issa Hayatou claims Nigeria still how CAF £6 million for TV rights this AFCON. Story below:

Caf has rescinded the Burkina Faso player's sending off after semi-final referee Slim Jdidi admitted his mistake, and he will be available for the Stallions versus the Super Eagles

Burkina Faso's Jonathan Pitroipa will play in the Africa Cup of Nations final after his ban for receiving two yellow cards was rescinded on Friday.

Tunisian referee Slim Jdidi was suspended after admitting in his match report that he made a mistake in sending Pitroipa off in the Burkina Faso-Ghana clash on Wednesday night.

Jdidi’s report has given Caf the power to overturn the decision taken by the referee, which means Pitroipa will be available for the 2013 Afcon final against Nigeria on Sunday.

"There is an overwhelming pressure to get Pitroipa back for the sake of our credibility," a Caf official told Goal.com.

"We get the need to have a competitive final free of allegations. We need the Afcon to be without blemish."

Burkina Faso, who have reached their first ever Afcon final, will play against high-flying Nigeria at the National Stadium on Sunday. The winners of the Afcon final will walk away with a trophy and prize money confirmed to be €1.1 million.

Caf president Issa Hayatou earlier defended the Afcon prize money, which many fans believe doesn’t match the prestige of the tournament.

"The reality is that our associations are struggling. We support them. For instance, Nigeria still owe us €8m [£6m] for TV rights," said Hayatou.

Romance / Re: Why Are Nigerian Guys Not Romantic? by ralfo85(m): 11:05pm On Feb 02, 2013
And do YOU know the white girls also complain alot about there men? Most running after foreigners? Depending on the country, Nigerian men are highly prized abroad, for the core reason that they are - romantic!

I guess being romantic is highly subjective.
You judged based on some isolated experience.
People usually don't value what they have, as they desire what seems different.

Religion / How Do You Interprete Sura 2:62? Please See Quotation by ralfo85(m): 4:40pm On Dec 24, 2012
[2:62] Surely, those who believe, those who are Jewish, the Christians, and the converts; anyone who (1) believes in GOD, and (2) believes in the Last Day, and (3) leads a righteous life, will receive their recompense from their Lord. They have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.

Religion / Re: Is Michael The Archangel Really Jesus? (revelation 12:7) by ralfo85(m): 10:35pm On Dec 08, 2012
"For to which of the angels did God ever say, "You are my Son; today I have become your Father"? Or again, "I will be his Father, and he will be my Son"?" - Hebrews 1:5

Maybe we should go back to properly understanding the purpose of that statement by paul. It was not meant to prove that Jesus was not an Angel, but that he has surpassed the angels by decree of God and has attained a loftier position. YOU may read the same Hebrews 1 from verse 1, or better still just from verse 4.
The words in verse 5 are a quotation from Psalms 2:7 (Psalm 2:7 New International Version (NIV)7 I will proclaim the Lord’s decree:He said to me, “You are my son; today I have become your father.)
The tone of the passage suggests a change of status, like an adoption. Thus Paul could infer that Jesus attained a change of status and has now attained a position that is unique and makes him different from the angels. He is now God's son has be given the power and authority that only the "only begotten son of God" could have.

Paul was encouraging the hebrew christians through these arguments to show them that faith in Jesus vital for there salvation, and that all that he said about himself was sure to come true. Reading Hebrews 2:1,2 makes this fact clearer, where he states that if all the words God spoke through angels came true (facts that they the Hebrew Christians have evidence of since they were of jewish background), would the declarations of God through his only begotten son not come true? If they believed in the angels, it would be unreasonable to lose faith in Jesus given that he was (is)God's own son, not just a messanger (like the angels)

Pauls words don't prove that Jesus was not an angel.

Religion / Some Say: I Will Marry In The New World by ralfo85(m): 6:08pm On Dec 03, 2012
I have heard some people talking about doing various things in the new world/paradise after the ressurection. Agreed things will be perfect, and one is most likely to find a perfect mate there. Given how many marriages turn sore today and become a source of pain instead of joy, I would say its is reasonable to want such a thing. But what I don't understand yet is, how those having such a dream correspond with Jesus' words quoted below?


[b][/b]Matthew 22:23-33
That same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him with a question. 24 “Teacher,” they said, “Moses told us that if a man dies without having children, his brother must marry the widow and have children for him. 25 Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one married and died, and since he had no children, he left his wife to his brother. 26 The same thing happened to the second and third brother, right on down to the seventh. 27 Finally, the woman died. 28 Now then, at the resurrection, whose wife will she be of the seven, since all of them were married to her?” 29 Jesus replied, “You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. 30 At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. 31 But about the resurrection of the dead—have you not read what God said to you, 32 ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not the God of the dead but of the living.”

Is it not contradicting? Please your sound thoughs are welcome.
Romance / Re: At What Age Do You Think A Male Child Should Leave His Parents House? by ralfo85(m): 8:49pm On Dec 01, 2012
A child may leave his parents house whenever he is stable and mature enough to take care of himself. This means he should be financially okay, and has come of age (is an adult by law). In Nigeria I guess the adult age is officially 21, ut we know that at 21 very few can think of leaving there parent's house due to the economic state of the country, coupled with other dangers a youth at thaat age may be exposing himself to by living outside the supervision of a more experienced adult.

It has been done to me, and when I expressed my displeasure the girl felt no remorse. She rather tried to explain why we are friend with the question: Or are we not friends? If I introduced you as "boyfriend how does that make things different?
I was in shock. But she felt she had done nothing wrong. What does that say of her?

This is just a "we are young" feel. It will pass. They are just living their lives like we all should be doing. Passions may change, but the experience is worth it. Someday they may look back and have fond memorries

Romance / Re: I Cheated And Lied But I Am Remorseful. How Do I Get Him Back? by ralfo85(m): 9:31pm On Oct 30, 2012
Have you told him yet that you cheated on him or are you just imagining what his reaction will be? I believing talking to him about what happened is the honourable thing to do no matter his response. Do the right thing and be honest with him first.

What's d cause of her resentment for him? Is it something she needs to deal with herself?
My advice is for her to soberly reflect on the causes of this emotion she feels and make the right decision.
Is it something he is not doing right or is it that she has the problem? When did she start feeling this resentment for him?
What is their relashionship history?

It would be unfair for her to string the guy along because there is no one else hanging around. After a sober consideration of the situation let her tell her boyfriend her mind.
But let her be sure of her feeling, before she regrets telling him the wrong thing.
Romance / Re: Can We Call This Cheating? by ralfo85(m): 3:42pm On Jul 10, 2012
Have we talked about the intent of these male friends she goes out with? What if they are just lurking around like vultures looking for an opportunity to grab her from you upon the slightest weakness from her? Would you approve of such dates?

I suppose it would be good that she discusses the nature of her relationship with such friends freely with you, and can calmly answer any questions you may have without assuming distrust.

Fashion / Re: When A Lady Goes Out Without Applying Make-up by ralfo85(m): 6:02pm On Apr 20, 2012
Sugardiva: Guys ders a difference btw LIGHT make up and NO MAKE UP at all. Bliv me u do not like girls wit no make up. Check out d deeper life babes who do not wear any at all. I dont hear u guys raving abt hw beautifule dey look. Light make up includes moderate powder, nicely lined brows and gloss. This is the look dat I believe is natural. There is nothing wrong wit it. Sayin we shld not make up at all is like sayn we shld not comb our hair in the morning when we wake up or we shld not shave our armpits and u knw where and just leave dem like that natural. They are parts of the body that must NOT be left completely in its natural state but must be well groomed and taken care of or else we wld not look civilised. Granted some of us ladies get too excited and end up crayoning our faces with rainbow colors but dat doesnt mean we shldnt make up at all.

TIPS FOR NICE LIGHT MAKE UP
1. Use a powder that suits ur skin color
2. WIth eye shadow always use natural colors
3. Let ur brows be well trimmed and not bushy. Linnning it is optional.
4. Use lip gloss not lip stick
5. Blushes are a no no for black ladies like us especially in d day time
6. Always make up in good lighting. What looks nice and blended in dim light will look overboard when u step out into sunlight.



Have you noticed that some girls look worse than their partners (guys) if they aren't wearing make-up? I thought the ladies were supposed to have prettier faces
@ SweetCocoa cheesy cheesy cheesy Ur story is hilarious. Mehn that must av been very funny.
