let them show off wat mama blessed dem with?

was going tru dis online where two ladies r victims of FGM: Female genital Mutilation.

Charity, now 22, was 11 years old when they took her and her twin sister Chike, laid them down side by side and cut their outer Cores away. Chike bled to death as she lay beside her sister. It took two hours for Chike to die. I see the grief and pain in Charity's eyes as she tells me this. Charity is Ebu, from the Edu state in Nigeria. She says that her mother also went to the police when this happened and that they "chased her away"

Aftr reading d artcle i wept even as a guy. Is this still goin in d 21st Century in my country? Who protects this ladies, what right do so called family ritual carry out such act?
bleep tradition.

kudirat's death was a casualty of war. Abacha was not ready to allow democracy to reign, so drastic action had to b taken by external and internal powers .
suspect: who advised Al-Mustapha to make Abubakar as Head of State.
P.O.W: someone had to take the blame, and it was no other person than Al-Mustapha who also had loyalties to then regime of Abacha.
influence: Abiola's death had to come cos there had to b a balance to abacha's death and internal power culd nt concede power to a man who wuld nt bow to their wants.

All this was a played down plan for Nigeria democracy "to allow foreign influence to run our mkt"  to exist and take military back to barracks.
Sacrifices had to b made.

A boy of 14 yrs carries the burden of an overdue pregnant woman. Odinakachi Emelogu is a Primary Three pupil of Amaise Primary School, Obinwa, Abia State. But while his mates are in school, little Odinakachi is faced with the challenge of shedding off the excess fluid in his stomach, which has caused a lot of discomfort to him and his family already.

His carriage shows that he is tired of the heavy load, which his skinny frame is forced to carry along. Although he speaks audibly, he coughs frequently as if choking. His classmates jeer. They also call him different nicknames, among which are ‘swollen stomach,’ ‘big stomach’ and ‘pot belly’. Out of frustration due to his disfigured look and constant assault by schoolmates, he was forced to stop schooling in 2007 to enable him and his parents seek a solution.

1. Malware, particularly keyloggers, installed on the computer. Obviously these can steal your identity by capturing the keys you press and the screens you see. You can prevent them by running as standard user, running up to date antivirus software, keeping your operating system and applications up to date and exercising caution.

2.Misconfigured peer-to-peer apps are also a common mistake of users. If a user configures P2P applications like utorrent to share too large a portion of the file system, such as all of My Documents, then other users on the network can see anything you put there.

3.Phishing is not quite the threat it used to be, but it's still widely used. Nowadays the real phishing threat comes from targeted phishing attacks called spear phishing, in which the attacker uses some prior knowledge of you to tailor the phishing e-mail to what you would expect in a real one. Be aware of the site you are actually viewing and be especially suspicious of links that come in unsolicited e-mails.

4.Nigerian-type scams are also probably never going to go away because they rely on human weaknesses. When you receive an unsolicited offer that sounds too good to be true.

5.Criminals often install skimmers on ATMs and other card reading devices, including credit card readers. These are devices which install over the reader appear to be part of the machine. When you insert your card the skimmer reads it and records the information on it. They are often used in combination with surreptitious cameras to record the keys you press for the PIN.

LMAO @ Easy to catch Chicks!

Well, the easy to catch Chicks are those of a NATIVE FOWL! Dont try catching the chicks of a Bush FOWL or those of an OSTRICH! If the mama Bush fowl or mama Ostrich sees you tryna catch it's chicks,. . . . . . They'll pluck your LEFT EYE!

na true u talk sha

havin traveled alot, i hav weighed, measured and evaluated. so based on my analysis on southern,western and eastern ladies i will vote for Anambra chicks (they r yurs @ any level u present yurself) unlike lag babes who i vote as d money hungry chicks.
NB: This analysis may b bias cos i hav nt tried northern girls so i'm open to your comments based on experience.

Taking over the schools is needed, cos of the deplorable state of this once glorified schools.
I happen to b a product of SACHS, now the sch is nothing to write home abt, talk less of AGGS, Abeo-gramms . Private owners r jst eating d money made, payin tutors peanuts and running the school like public schs.

OOmpa:
My husband doesn't like confrontation. Whenever we have a problem and I want to discuss it -even in a very calm and civilised way -he clams up, shuts down and -if possible -stps talking at all. He says all he wants is peace. That dealing with problem is by leaving it behind and not discussing it.
Even after a fight, he would just like to forget it and move on, he will never apologise, or even tell me how we should improve things, what maybe I should do -if he thinks I'm guilty od something. So if he sees I am still dwelling on it, he can keep silent for 2-5 days.
Do you have a similar experience -with youself or your partner. Is it a Nigerian way -or just his own?

am nt married , but i am like that in my family? do nt like to bring up d past jst prefer to move on. but my parents said d attitude culd kill d communication needed in a family when i start one.

I tink d problem is dt most of us do nt knw wen to bring up a issue and hw to express it? u need to knw yur husband hapi times and do nt b confrotational rather accept u r @ fault and giv yur advice to hw to solve d problem then u can ask 4 his opinion .

pregnancy b4 marriage does nt mean sex b4 marriage. u can get a surrogate mum to carry your child which was conceived thru artificial insemination.
i happen to grow up in mushin where i see kids ( 12 - 16 yrs) getting pregnant 4 adults, dt was a worrisome society, i had to gt out of there b4 i gt infected by d social ill.
But wat is surprising is guys saying dt they r getting married becos they want to have babies, wat if aftr yrs of marriage child do nt come?
children shld b no reason to gt married, if need one, adopt or gt a surrogate mum.

FINITO

2yrs ago i 4gt to get another inhaler.
i lost my breath while doing home chores. i could not move nor lift any part of my body till my sight started to fade.
i woke up the next day in a hospital. @ 1st i thought i was dead making to give way to tears until my lil sis came in with some items.
Would nvr go anywhere without my inhaler, death is scary.

@ poster
y r married men attracted to u? there gat to b reason 4 dt probably dts y u specifically said u were nt posting your pics @ first.
your attraction to married men culd be as a result of need (ego, security or mayb kudi), you need to loose some ends to attract young bachelor guys like us.

inflicting injury on another man, is jst crazy. she may b doing this cos she sees d boys father whenever she looks @ d boy (dis creates hatred for d kid), you may never know what the boys father did or as d story goes, her new husband cant b a father to d kid and told her to tk care of it.

i use to watch only american movies cos i hated nollywood which i classified as african movies but few months ago i watched this Ghanaian movie "the perfect picture" from that time on i have loved Ghanaian movies, nollywood is trash except some exceptional directors.

No I think some guys just want to justify it and most ladies are avoiding useless arguments
I will say again and again.
IT CAN NEVER BE JUSTIFIED.
All reasons given are flimsy
Its not about[b] poverty [/b]cz we have the rich doing it too.Besides if all the poor took to the streets then wht? look around and see REAL needs.
Neither is it anything to do with education cz the uneducated and educated are doing it.
Its not about[b] age[/b] either cz the old and young are doing it.
Its not about[b] location [/b]either.The pro in Miami is no diffrence frm the one in lagos. 4get the sorroundings and money. Its got one name.Prostitution.
The lady banker in office sleeping wth every other dude 4 money sake and avoiding the harsh streets 4 sake of reputation is still a LovePeddler.
It just a sinful profession wth not so good consequences. But fact is ITS HERE TO STAY.
It can be legalised in every country but that will never make its a lesser evil no.Legalistaion only makes it possible for us to do stuff (good /bad)without fear of breaking the laws.
We can legalise selling albinos but c'mmon does it make it a good thing just cz it was?
We have legalised man-lover marriages,etc etc. But bottom line is . I dont belive its right but hey whts my problem? its legalised!
I ask guys one question. WOULD YOU TELL YOUR MUM/SIS TO GO SELL HER BODY FOR FUN OR MONEY?
We say theres  NEED/DEMAND/SUPPLY.Very true. But would you be glad if u met mum/sis  fulfilling 'many strangers intimate needs?for money sake?
We are just saying its okay cz its that other lady we know nothing about.
Bring it closer home!!

u said it all, lets bring d issue to our doorstep and see how it stands.
bt wat abt those dt sought out dis prostitutes, they shld tak d largest blame?

very few female nairalanders r commenting on this topic, hp no issue?

what is d difference btw a lady who sells her body for money and one who pretends to b yur girl and goes to bed with other BFs and calls u later saying darling?
So prostitution should nt b judged, only hp u do nt find yurself in such situation. Some of this girls only tink of this stuff as a job without skills required, so any1 is qualified unlike luking for job out there wen u do nt hav d necessary skills.

@Topic, to each his/her own.
When i was graduating high school, i asked one of my classmates what her plan was. She said she wanted to marry and stay at home. I said, didn't she want to explore more, do something even if it's only one year before settling down because she's quite intelligent, driven and hardworking. Nope she said she wanted to get married. I figure, it's what she wants and she seems to know where she wants to go. If things go wrong, it's her place to handle it because it's her choice.[/color]

this is a problem, most do nt know that we guys no longer want liability ladies rather an "independent lady" who will nt b riding for free.

i was talking with my lil sister yesterday who happens to b going for batch B service. the talk was about what were her plans after service? The only thing that could come out of her mouth was marry a guy, who would let her have a shop near home so she can be a full time house wife.
i was disgusted becos why waste time and money to be educated to university level when she  will end up not using the degree than to have babies and stay @ home.
I as a person cant have my wife stay @ home as a full time house wife, then what is the essence of your degree. But @ the same time would not want her to have white collar job which will be time demanding, not having time for her family " i mean career hungry wives".

@ poster
If the guy truly loves the lady, then its up to him to educate his parents about cancer.
he should check out this website
http://www.google.com.ng/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=2&ved=0CDQQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fecyg.wikispaces.com%2Ffile%2Fview%2FYVAN%253B%2BWorld%2BCancer%2BDay%2BReport%2B2011.pdf&rct=j&q=cancer%20seminar%20in%20nigeria&ei=oDv3TZj3DoSChQexhKH5Cw&usg=AFQjCNGguPBuPr6mtDAqohhNCGfoe9xoyw&cad=rja

And he can get his parents to watch this Nigerian film about cancer "save our soul" and "holding hope" .

Its all to your guy if love truly exist for the lady

@ poster
Does he know u love him?
If yes , then stop continuing living in your dream world.
Cut a slack and get a grip. There are nice guys out there for you.

@ poster
You have said it all, the other guy gives you good sex so why not talk to your husband and device ways to make your sex more fun.
At least you got experience from that other guy, so teach d skills to your husband.
By the way you need to ask yourself why am i cheating and what do you hope to gain from it? Can the reason be provided by my mate , if not then QUIT.

@ poster
I was expecting u tell him u needed some time (relationship break) to tink this tru, wen he told u. During this period u shld hav confronted yur lil' sis "privately" without him knowing, to hear her own side of d story and see if he even tries to make amends during yur relationship break.
Then tell him abt u goin to meet yur sis and  make your decision based on what you hav heard and his reaction.
There r 2 ways to this: he wants you out of his life, cos y wait dis long to tell you and y now?
or maybe he loves you deeply, probably he nvr had d gut to tell u. 

NB  TO ALL LADIES: NEVER SEE YURSELF AS A CHEAP OR DESPERATE ONE. WEN A GUY CONFESSES TO YOU , LET HIM SWEAT IT OUT TO KNOW HE HAS DONE WRONG, RATHER THAN JUST ACCEPTING WAT HE HAS SAID AND SAYING NO PROB, I UNDERSTAND. THAT VERY MOMENT HE HAS SEEN YOU AS BEEN CHEAP, THEREFORE I CAN CONTINUE TO CHEAT ON HER, ALL I JUST NEED TO DO IS TO SAY I AM SORRY, SHE WOULD UNDERSTAND.

Am a Man U fan and my ex was an arsenal fan. it was fun watching EPL together esp. when d 2 rivals meet.
Any new lady i decide to go out with mst b a rival club fan.

Hail MAN U for CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE.

Not all men are cheats, but you need to understand how to identify a cheat?
There r few honest guys out there but not all can b perfect.
some may nt b adulterous, but may have bad temper so u cant find a perfect man.

wat is education for ; is  it nt a means to prepare for 2morow nd fill your intellect.
u do nt have to gt a higher degree to have this @ least my 13 yr old cousin proves this. she thinks, talks and behaves beyond r age.

let him b ; he can have online degrees, part time or professional degrees.

make d chichi now nd gt d pali later. shebi u sabi read, write and fit rub minds, thats wat d world wants.

Matt 23: 6-10, gives an answer to how wrong is it for pple to give themselves titles (i.e  father, reverend, pastors etc) in the house of GOD
Becos there is only one teacher, pickup yur bible and read.

Majority of us just believe watever dis so called men of God say without questioning or researching ourselves "my pastor says"
