aieromon: Dortmund has done it!!!

CFCfan: Elsewhere, its now Dortmund 1-1 Malaga. Robert Lewandowski has equalized for Borussia Dortmund, but they need one more goal.

bloggernaija: These so-called students are mostly between the ages of 20 and 34.I am in the office right now with my oyinbo colleagues .Their average age is 23.many of them with masters degree.
The fact that a quarter of your productive life has been wasted first hit you when you are interviewed by a post puberty kid at any foreign embassy in Naija .On getting to your destination,you realise that those kids already have 5 years after uni practical working experience while 30 yrs old grandpa is still burning tyre in Naija .
Insanity rules Naija for real

My X1: Simply becos u dnt mes wit Igbo girls nd go scort free. So take note!

phantom: And we are led to believe they are most politically sophisticated tribe in the country.2015 is going to be 'bloody' interesting.

farem: Mediocrity is worst than corruption.
The mediocres in their wisdom know nothing to battle the raging opposition only to 'empower' one militant chief. Have they forgotten it was the same way the Boko haram and Mend were 'empower' to fan their selfish desires. Having used and dumped them what do we have now?
With the West, being 'recruited' into the madness, Nigeria is up in flames. Tufiakwa!

Katsumoto: Everyone is rioting in Greece today. They didn't think their country would sink with many dodging fair taxes and the government giving expensive pensions. Any country where folks retire at 50 will be bankrupt, especially when Europeans live until 100. And greeks study until their 30s. Work for 20 yrs and then collect pension for 40 years. Who is going to pay for it?

Katsumoto: Thats the difference between you and I.

I don't care about whether Labour, conservatives, or white/black like me. My position is based on how policies affect me. I don't give a rats ar.se about lazy people who are in a first world country and still expecting govt to do everything for them. They have schools close to home with all the comforts in life but keep complaining while kids in Africa are trekking great distances to get to school. There was a story of a kid in SA who has to cross crocodile infested waters to get to school. And you think I have sympathy for people who want government to buy them playstations?

The government provides free health, free schools, option to buy your home or rent at below market price. The government provides welfare benefits for those who don't work. For single mothers who just want to be loose and have kids. Who is supposed to pay for all that?

Sam xiu lee: One question,does amnesty implies that money must be paid to the people?boko haram,mend and others?
Why must we always monetize everything in Nigeria,if fg want to grant amnesty,let them grant it without paying anybody.

Booty4me: Niger Delta militant - 75k/month, Boko Haram - 100k/month, NYSC - 19,800/month, minimum wage (civil service) - 18,900/month. Choose your career wisely

sentix: My 2 cents!

We cannot keep bribing everybody! The daylight robbery that was FG sanctioned in the Niger Delta was the biggest mistake ever made in Nigeria. Has the Amnesty granted to the Niger Delta Militant improved the economy of the Area, NO. Instead these so-called billionaire-militant and millionaire-militant come to Lagos to show off!

We should stop believing we can just throw money at every problem in this country.

Government should instead focus on making Nigeria a better economic and social state. China did not become so large by spending money, they created the enabling environment to tap their biggest resource - WORKFORCE. Nothing stops Nigeria from feeding West Africa.

mu2sa2: In the fight against boko haram the military option has failed, so what option remains other than a non-violent approach. In Afghanistan, Americans have only realised the fact that force is not always the winner after 10 years of bloodshed and are now talking with the taliban. Do those talking force-only with boko haram want the bloodshed to continue for 10 years in nigeria before FG ends it - by talking?

fellis: Women evolved to have a better sense of smell to sniff out genetic deficiencies in a potential mate, since they had lesser chances of passing on their genes, it was more crucial to them to make sure that whatever partner they mated with was as satisfactory as possible. Women are also better with colors like you said. I am not sure what the reason for this is though I read somewhere that it helped with detecting poisonous fruits and plants (by their colours) while gathering food in the wild. Women mostly gathered food while men hunted.

naptu2: I think he's referring to 1990 (the first gulf war).

cap28: What is it with you people? its not as if you are benefitting in any way from any of the policies that she implemented - the unions were responsible for protecting the rights of ordinary british workers - if we had a decent worker's union in nigeria do you thing Goodluck Jonathan could have gotten away with hiking up the price of petrol without any severe repercussions on his tenure in office?
I can tell you that Thatcher's arrogance and contempt for the poor led to her demise in 1990 when she was humiliatingly forced out of office following the council tax riots which threatened to tear this country apart.

cap28: You dont know anything about this woman that's why you said that - she destroyed the livelihood of working class people in this country and encouraged selfishness, individualism and greed - the only beneficiaries of her draconian economic policies were the rich and the banking elite - she completely decimated jobs in the northern part of England and i can tell you that the average british person will not mourn her departure.

kaorama: I like to think of something
I've never seen before
And if it doesn't happen right away
I think a little more.
I sit a little while
And imagine what could be
A new idea might come to me

GenBuhari: As Petroleum Minister 1976-79 Buhari built 3 of our refineries.

As Head of State he only had 20months and he used his short time to cleanse country of corruption and turned economy around

GenBuhari: [size=18pt]8th January 1984 - The NY Times
Buhari steps up search for all Politicians and Officials who have failed to report to a Police Station.[/size]

LAGOS, Nigeria, Jan. 7— Nigeria's new military Government is stepping up searches for former politicians and officials of the civilian Government that was overthrown in a coup a week ago.

The new regime is making television appeals for news of the whereabouts of former officials and other Nigerians who are wanted for questioning and is urging citizens to telephone the police if they have information about those who are being sought.

spicyp: Even as a student nurse that i am a lot of dudes are dying for me.Most guys love the profession and not the person in question.There's always a misconception that nurses take lots of pills not to get pregnant,d question is...is taking of pills the only way to avoid pregnancy?A nurse can have sex as many times as possible and not use pills or condom but still not get pregnant.Its our field"we know how we de run am"
