I guess yhu didn't notice where I said suspected, yhu unaware that some of those same suspected terrorists end up spending 4 to 5 yrs only to be released as not guilty. Yhu really don't know what gitzmo is right. I am not confused in any way just the way u feel u have a right to ur own opinion so do I. As for ur apologies, it nt sincere in any way and I never demanded any. Just learn to be civil when having an intellectual discuss with ppl dats all am pointing our here. Points win arguments not insults, cos only kids who can't argue without bringing in emotions haul insults at ppl. I rest my case here!!!
you can rest your case but one last thing I will say.... As bad as gitzmo might be , I am sure it is better than even the best prison in Nigeria.

Also gitzmo is far better than killing people off as if their lives are meaningless, killing them off without following due process.

I rest my own case.

Yhu sound childish by calling my own way of putting points across as been illiterate in nature, I don't throw insults at ppl no matter how slite. No need continuing this with yhu.
lol, I tell you you sound illiterate and you tell me I sound childish because you feel you need to say something back.

Well, its the invalidity of your points that made me say so, sorry if you are offended but its the obvious truth. You say they are terrorists (even though their only offence is blocking the road and being unruly, didn't know that was the new terrorism) and should be killed and you also say America arrests terrorists and puts them in jail... What point are you passing across please? Because it seems you are confusing yourself.

I hear you LarrySun, and it seems you are right.... Its just too bad. We had a good thing going on for a while but I guess everything good comes to an end.

It's like we should probably move our ministry to romance section where we will be noticed.

Divepen1:
We will overcome. Made Mod or not we'll build this ground because a new generation will need to meet good literature in Nigeria.
Yes Divepen, I am behind you on that.

Look here sis, I believe in da just like urself, but yhu know 1 things, this perpetrators of evil know and respect know nothing like law, if this suicide bombers we have know what law is all abt I dounbt they wld be blowing us up. Am not holding brief here for the military but mind yhu some times the law wld be kept aside in order to deal with extreme cases, we may nt know the backlash if our own COAS had turned back as suggested by some of yhu, the COAS is da symbol of our strength as a nation, what wld have happened if they the shiites had simply opened the way for the COAS. Yhu know what americans do with suspected terrorists, they send them to the worst prison on earth aka guantanamo bay. I guess a few lives would have to sacrificed for our general safety. May the souls of the departed rest in peace!!!
the souls should rest in peace? Souls that could have achieved so much while here on earth?

I am sorry to say but you sound illiterate, the baby killed was a terrorist, right? You call terrorist as if America just takes anybody to Guantanamo without thorough investigation. If it were the Nigerian Army, they would have killed the suspected terrorist already without bothering with arrest or investigations.

You are even making my point for me. Like America does, the Nigerian soldiers should have made arrests since then people were unruly and might have broken some laws. That is the LAW and not comeback a few hours later in the night to kill children and innocent people.

BTW, you claim the Shiites are terrorists, how? Who have they killed? Boko haram , the real terrorists are sunni, so I don't know what your understanding of terrorism is. Are they terrorists because they are like church of Satan?

Even if they are terrorists like you said, why didn't the Nigerian Army simply arrest them like America does and let the law determine their fate, instead of shooting and randomly killing people? That is where the problem lies!

Literature › Revamping Our Dying Literature Section... I Nominate Divepen1 And Llaykorn Mods by repogirl(op):
I have been a writer on this section for over three years now and it is regretful to say that the section has been left to degradation.

Writers have now migrated to the romance and sexuality sections in order to get more readers and appreciation for their works.

What crime did we commit in here that our works can't grace front page anymore? All we beg for is a little recognition especially for the hardworking, upcoming writers here. It just isn't fair.

I think the blame falls on the mod in charge, he probably needs assistance and that's why I am advocating for literary inclined, passionate contributors from this section to help out.

I hereby nominate Divepen1 for Mod/asst. Mod for Lit. Section and Llaykorn mod for poetry section.

Both members have been dedicated to this section for years now... And have shown a passion for literature and poetry.

I have been in talks with them and they have agreed to do their best to revamp the section.

Below is evidence of threads they started to boost activity in the section

Please let's do this for all literature lovers on Nairaland. This section has a lot of untapped potential...all they need is a little recognition for their efforts.

Oga Seun, please remember us at this end.... We still deserve to be on the front-page. It was a story by Virgo, Umari Anyim on the frontpage that made me pick up my pen and begin writing again and Nairaland has taken me quite beyond my own expectations.

All I ask is that you continue to do this for others. Thank you.

OP, prayer is not magic! angry....you are bribing lecturers and you are praying on top, well done.

But there is still hope for you if you just man up, tell the truth and face the consequences. It will be rough for a while but it will get better. Do the right things and then your prayers will work.

It's not too late for you, it hasn't even begun, this is just a setback. ..we all go through it atsome point in our lives. Don't give up just yet because your best is yet to come.

If your card is stolen, call your banks customer care line to cancel it. Or send an email to your bank.

It should be quite easy tracing the thieves from the POS machine anyway.... That's if the authorities really want to apprehend them. With BVN details and the acct numbers that will show on the text message from your bank, they can definitely be caught.

stop deceivin yourself, no lady wishes to die single, not in africa.
lol....I hereby rest my case until you find single ladies who are happy with their lives.

I actually have a sister who is that way, she doesn't care to get married. She is all about her career, I tried to even make her see why she should even try dating but when my suggestions were annoying her, I left her to God.

Incase you didn't know, this is the 21st century and as you have realised, we are hugely influenced by the western culture... No longer is marriage do or die for many successful ladies. That's just it.

Ibhereby rest my case.

In reality you are a real man or woman when you have people you look out for,having kids to cater for,having a wife/husband and a home that you make sure it works and that can only be possible in marriage.
I agree...like I said I have no qualms against marriage but its not always so picture perfect like you are painting it, is it?

Didn't know singlehood doesn't have challenges cry. What in the world that doesn't come with challenges? You people make marriage look like one scary thing. You could go back to being single if you so cherish it.
you miss the point I am passing across.... Did you see the part where I said I chose to be married? My marriage is awesome because I have chosen to make it that way and thanks God for giving me an equally awesome husband but I can assure you if marriage didn't come my way, I would have been content being alone because I understand its about making myself happy and not looking for someone to make me happy.

I am just saying it as it is...life is what you make of it...being single or married is a choice and both come with their challenges.

The original aim of this topic was to make it seem like being single was dreadful and I simply told the OP that some people enjoy their life that way.

A good marriage is heaven on earth biko,marriage is a good thing. You mentioned Oprah those have their culture and believes OMotola has been married since are 18 from all indication mercy Johnson is enjoying her marriage but you choose to use Oprah,over there you can choose a man to have a child with without getting married. Marriage is a great thing if you marry a great person.
I never said marriage was bad, did I? I said it comes with its challenges and anyone going into it must be ready for it. Even good marriages have their trying times, you can check 1 corinthians 7:28 to see what Paul said about getting married.

You mentioned a few people that are enjoying their marriage, I can mention the ones that did not...in fact the ones that break up are even more than the ones that seem to be enjoying it.

Just as you think marriage can be bliss, so can spinsterhood for those who choose it to be. Its based on your choice and Life is what you make of it.

That's y I asked yhu what shiia is all abt and what some of their tenets are, but yhu cldnt answer me, if yhu wanna knw why some things are happening nw, check the past happenings, and mind yhu don't limit ur research on nigerian shiites alone but broaden ur scope of research then yhu wld understand what I am driving at. Shiite to islam is just like the church of satan to xtianity.
even if they are demons or they devil himself, there's still a thing called basic human rights.... Our rights as human beings is what makes us feel safe...where we have no rights (like slaves) and our rights are not respected, we will live in fear. Fear that since our lives have no value, it can be easily taken away if someone doesnt agree with our way of life. Would you love that sort of society?

There is also something called the law... It should also be respected and used appropriately to convict people who have been found guilty of criminal activity. The law helps for a sane environment...

If you say the Shiites are criminals and are guilty of perpetrating evil, then by all means let them have a fair trial and be dealt with if found guilty. You don't open fire on defenceless citizens.. Children, an eighteen month old baby for crying out loud! Or is the baby also guilty?

The army have no bloody excuse for killing defenceless citizens...none at all!

If we turn our eye to such abuse of peoples right to their lives, it will only be a matter of time when they decide the rest of us are guilty of something they don't agree with, then they will turn their guns on us, after all they are the Judge and Jury and they can decide to end our lives since they are the new law.

If you are married that long, why try to give a pix of their status as a good thing.

Are you not enjoying your marriage? You should encourage them to get married in order to save more ladies from the trauma of single-hood.
let me repeat myself and risk sounding like a broken disc...it is a choice, some people don't want to settle... You can't force them. If they eventually decide to marry they will.

I don't understand what the big deal is about marriage.... Do you need it to make heaven or live longer? Or does it guarantee happiness?

It comes with its own challenges and except one is really ready for it and what it brings, I won't advice anyone to get married just because its what everyone does when they reach a certain age.

What do you even mean by trauma of single hood? A woman who knows herself will never be going through any trauma just because she is single. I guess Oprah Winfrey's life must be traumatic as hell.

It is not by force but inwardly, you ladies are dying cus no true man is willing to settle with your type.
