gabriel212: BROS there are things man will do today out of improper thinking or for immediate gain that can cause him/her is future or deny her generation good WILL!
what of if you are denied the money after you burn your certificate? I still insist that I will enjoy what ever I have with my family in peace and joy!

Seriously?!!!! I give up!!!

19yrs is an adult from Christ's sake!

If she was properly raised, she knows what's right and wrong already. If she doesn't know right or wrong at 19, then something is wrong and no matter what you or your parents do now, it is too late.

I think she is a disciplined and we'll brought up girl based on your write up.

By the way, no one goes through life with a smooth ride. There will be heartbreaks and ups and down. Let her chart her own course.

What you owe her as a brother is to be supportive and be there for her if the guy turns out to be a jerk. You can chip in one or two advice once in a whole but never make the relationship a triple team where u are always in the background. She will eventually hate you for that.

Please don't listen to those suggesting you meet the guy, you and your sister may lose a lot of respect that way.

Chill and enjoy your young sister enter a phase of adulthood and happiness.

At the end, everything will turn out fine.

3cycle: You need Jesus bro

That's my one reason, what has Jesus got to do with it?

I prefer fornication to adultery

gabriel212: Life is not all about money! how will a person right in her thinking faculty burn his/her four years or 5years labour because of money no matter how much?
I choose to be happy and comfortable with what i earned among my family and my labour is part of my heritage.
TO HELL AND HELL AND HELL with your money.
mind you I know of people earning 23million naira per annum with the BSC that another man want to burn because of 50millions dollars

That 23million naira guy/lady won't save up 50 million dollars ( roughly 8billion naira) throughout his/her career, so what's your point?

Don't let us deceive ourselves here, at the end of the day, it is all about the BENJAMINs

Nigeria is officially at war!

ITbomb: For $50m, I will also set my SSCE certificate on fire along with the BSc.

So many investment ideas on mind, what I got from school is on my head not on those pieces of papers

God bless u!

For 50 million dollars, I will set my ; Certificates, University, secondary school and primary schools on fire!

victorazy: And I wonder why Usher can't come down from his high horse to do a dance floor colabo with these guys!

They are the one copying Usher not the other way round

donbenie: I found your claim that you forgot your user ID number and Password,because as you claimed you didn't need to type it in before now,to be absolute HOGWASH..as a frequent GTBank online banker, I know for a fact that this is required for each and every time you log in to your Online account,so it is Disingenuous on your part to make that claim,my take from your whole story is that you're a Novice who does not know the primary rudiments of online banking,for instance recharging your line at odd hours may keep your money hanging till the next working hours, just as money transfer on a weekend is not advised,going through your post I deduced that your naivety is much more to be blamed than GTBank..

At last! Someone that really understand the OP is just a novice.

There are so many flaws in his write up I couldn't believe majority didn't pick them up.

Yes, GTB Internet banking may jot be perfect but I have noticed Nigerians like giving a dog a bad name just to hang it.

Even one of the posters on this thread blamed GTB for parents exposing their passwords for Top up card transfer.

I share your position on this issue bro

Nigerians deserve the kind of leaders we get.

It is unbelievable some are defending the irresponsible action of government here.

The government offered to pay them and they didn't fulfil their promise and some of you are spewing rubbish!

Promote the entire U17 team to SE now!

Results can't be worse than it is presently.

Cheers01: Here is the difference with Engineering-

-with technological advances, the reasoning changes. With economics, the reasoning is still constant. Look at your engineering textbooks from 3 years ago and look at the ones today then look at old and new economics textbooks. Note how little econnomics change at all


-with engineering, new techniques come out and there is an infinite number of ways to design a building. With economics, there is no new economic model discoverable, no new macroeconomic variables. Whatever happens conform the to the established economic schools of thought.

TKO! Gbam!

His wife is an Exec in MTNN, they can afford it.

Kelly32: Please get me right I have never said ''she will go to hell or not go to heaven'', but in reference to your point, making people laugh is NOT the essence of Life (again no offence to the lady). Sure in the course of life, we will make people laugh,but even if I spend my whole time in an exam hall making people laugh, will that Guarantee that I will pass that exam?

Also its the worry for my eternity that prompts me to talk more about it, and makes me drawing examples from the fact that 81 years to you might look like a lot or an achievement but believe me if its wasted, you will see the value of one hour and wish you had just an hour to correct it.

With all your religiosity, u are going to die an unhappy fellow. Who are u to give us standard or claim to understand essence of life?

Religious bigotry! Projecting your own insecurity and unhappiness on others to feel better.

God will be sad you are typing shiit about a fellow man. Pls shut it.

Afghanistan: Forget that Unilorin o. I was a medical student there and I must say its really overrated. Insufficient classroom,poor conditions,poor structures and also,the lecturers. Majority of the lecturers no sabi anything as most of them are doctors who were just hired to take up lecturing to fill the gap. Imagine the HOD of a department who cannot speak good english and he calls himself a graduate of MB;BS and has a PHD in anatomy only to miseducate students in anatomy. That's why its very difficult to find professors there. Only a few professors. Another problem is the issue with departments. The college of medicine in unilorin don't have enough departments. They don't even have dentistry, physiotherapy, radiography and so on. Even nursing was just recently established. Despite all these, they keep on withdrawing students anyhow, destroying their careers all in the name of medicine. You just have to make the best of everything in this life and try to be successful in all endeavours. Just believe that you'll make it and with hardwork,you will.
Best Regards.

You were withdrawn or couldn't make it there when you tried at unilorin.
You post obviously lacks objectivity.

The name should also be changed to something else.

Nollywood is a poor attempt at creativity. Everyone knows it was coined from Hollywood.

I still marvel at how the music industry turned it around and are not competing globally while the movie industry is still so slow in adapting

Ngwakwe: Will you still believe him further by acknowledging his next statement paraphrased and quoted below.

The Australian Negotiator said "the bulk of the Sponsors are in the opposition" meaning APC

Davis said he decided to gag their names for reasons and not to jeopardise court process.

When did APC become the only opposition party in Nigeria?

MayorofLagos: It means sex will be preceded by a question and answer session.

Boy: do you know what i am getting ready to do you?

Girl: yes!

Boy: are you aware i have an ere.ction?

Girl: yes!

Boy: do you know what erect pennees do?

Girl: yes!

Boy: under California statute code 739 section X.X.X, do you consent to be fvckd by this penees?

Girl: yes!

Boy: to prove intent and consent in the AFFIRMATIVE grab the penees and insert it in your body.

Girl: ok.


I change my mind about relocating to California! Im going to Utah instead.

Werey!!! Hahahaha

Andyblaze aka Boomboa, kraill, Liability etc are all smart trolls that keeps people busy in romance section.

Seun, is such a lucky dude. Some peeps indirectly work for him for free. Eg OP

Seriously mine was green, screwdriver!

In the coming months, Nigerians should expect more of this. By November, we will all be bombarded with Pro GEJ adverts, posters, videos, music, rallies that Abacha's 1million man March will look like child's play.

Slowly and gradually they are working on the psychology of those still sitting on the fence to move to GEJ's camp, why not? They can't be wrong because majority already claims he has done excellently well.

Interesting!

maestroferddi: Sorry you are conflating the whole issue. Go and read my essay so that you can get the slant of my argument.

The point is for the opposition to play its role while not constituting itself as a cog in the wheel of progress.

There are better ways to reach out to the populace/electorates than choosing the part of maligning and contradicting obvious achievements.

If you want to defeat a champion, you don't dismiss and discount their strength and advantage. Instead, you acknowledge their abilities while thinking out ways of outdoing them.

ok bro

maestroferddi: No-one is rooting for the PDP. They have their shortcomings.

But the opposition wants us to vote them into power yet their ideology and policies are the same if not worse than that of the ruling party.

The moot point is whether we want to change government for its own sake.

Convince me on why I need to take a gamble on a new party in power given the attendant implications of doing so.

That is what you supporters of APC should be addressing and not playing ostrich.

I am not an APC member but for this topic, I am supporting them because your initial post lacks logic.

Opposition wants what the party in power has in politics, so why blame them for that?

Also, I do not agree that their policies are exactly the same. IMO, this tactics is to brainwash Nigerians into believing what they have is currently the best or there is no alternative. Until, we have tried APC at the center and PDP in Lagos that argument of they are the same is rubbish. THEY ARE NOT.

Well, we all took a gamble on PDP at the center in 1999, for 15yrs the promises have not matched performance. If you are indeed a smart gambler, putting your stake on another party at least for 4yrs will be the smartest thing to do.

We all have only one life, as an adult, I will be shortchanging myself if I have such a limited option in democratic choices and did not use wisely by trying both at least, especially when mediocrity has replaced excellence in this clime

maestroferddi: You are getting it twisted. If you go back to the essay you would see where it was stated that opposition should be the watchdog of government.

Nobody is averse to opposition:all we are asking is that the opposition should conduct itself in such a manner that it doesn't become a nuisance and sabotage the common good.

Every Nigerian is not a politician. The moment a party gets the national/state mandate to lead, we expect that such party should be allowed to delivered the dividends of democracy.

In a situation where the opposition chooses to create unnecessary bottlenecks that stifle national growth, it then becomes completely objectionable.

Opposition should not translate to an outright/wholesale demonisation of the ruling party.

That is the point that is being made.

Only in Nigeria will government in power that control all the resources blame opposition for poor performance
! Pathetic
Unfortunately, the government in power has done same to the opposition. You can not exonerate them.

Typical examples,

Allowing PDP spokesmen to claim APC is sponsoring bokoharam.
Using government resources to gain unfair advantage, TAN is a good example.

The examples are numerous. The OP is just is not balanced in his assessment because he tried to paint APC as a bad kind of opposition.

Has PDP also conducted itself is a classy manner? NO

Mind you, going by comments by posters on popular forums and blogs, majority support parties based on ethnicity and religion. Sometimes, maybe based on popularity.

PDP and APC are using same rules and tactics because that's what Nigerians want. Blaming APC for that is so not right

maestroferddi: The question you should ask yourself is why the opposition always lose elections in Nigeria.

Is it not time they tweak and rejig their modus operandi?

In any case, we are discussing the opposition so I don't see the point of your extrapolation...

Opposition can continue to lose for 100yrs.......blaming them for losing or attributing their loses to criticizing government in power is lame. And that is the point I made

maestroferddi: PDP, I am afraid, are realists.

Granted, they have shortcomings.

They are not promising utopia just to get power at all cost.

PDP have always been in power at the center ( presidency ), until they are no longer at the center , your logic doesn't apply

The OP wants an opposition that will be praising government in power. WRONG!.

IMO everyone must ask questions concerning people in government all the time, not only opposition, because they are our employees.

The vibes I get with those in support of PDP or GEJ is that APC should laud PDP sometimes. That should never happen, rather they should just keep mute whenever they know PDP has done something right.

Opposition that praise government in power does not deserve to be voted for.

When two people agree all the time, only one of them is needed.

Yes, I support APC's way of always giving PDP headache, otherwise, the country would have been on free fall right now.

Even if APC does not get to power, Nigerians need them. Do not be fooled Nigerians, PDP wants a one party state, and that is what will eventually lead to the collapse of democracy. If you don't like APC vote APGA, LP, AC etc but unfortunately PDP has successfully kept those ones under wrap.

@OP, my question is ; how did we end up with APC as the only viable opposition to PDP? Answering this question intelligently will let you know we all are on a long thing if we continue to assume only one party is good enough for Nigerians.

Ciao.

God bless you. You know exactly what the issues are. All stakeholders are guilty and the one the really jumped out to me was the community related issue and the police. You see, Nigerians don't really care about development but money in their pockets.

Why would a community ask for billions before a power project can be sited there?

Community related issues is also gradually killing telecoms operators, ridiculous monetary demands at the detriment of QoS is the order of the day.

For me, we have missed the industrialization age, I hope we don't get left behind in this information age.

adanny01: This news is all propaganda.

Customs have been seizing PHCN and NIPP equipment since Obj's regime for no just cause or beauracratic bottle necks created by custom and other port authorities. In Dec 2011, Barth Nnaji lamented when customs initiated a plot to sell off the very expensive equipments to themselves. The port customs boss whom i remember seeing on tv denying the allegation was investigated but the outcome was never published. They had already began selling when the power minister raised alarm. Many equipment were missing by then. Most of those equipments had import waivers granted by the Obasanjo's regime especially those of NIPP but the customs held them i guess for bribes. By then, some non performing contracts had been terminated while those who were still on claimed their containers. The containers customs claimed to be abandoned were more than 500.

These other containers mentioned now were the ones whose contractors were either terminated or are still non performing. Its not a matter that they were abandon ed. In 2012, my site recieved its total of 19 containers which were held by customs.

In another case, we have one container at a police station which fell off the flatbed truck and killed a biker. The police were asking for N4million for the container's release which the contractor refused. You see, that container is still in the police station and will never be released till a minister asks why the project could not be completed, then the police will accuse the contractor of abandoning the container forgetting that a bribe of 4million was the real reason the project cannot be completed.

Almost N2 billion worth of equipment lie waste in a warehouse in Akwaibom because the communities claimed a fraudulent total compensation of over N6billion which was more than twice the cost of the project. Why wont government abandon the project?

No one will abandon important equipments like that unless someone like the customs in this case stops them from taking it. They should not insult my intelligence shifting blames or trying to show that they are working!

If i may ask, who established NIPP? OBJ.
Who awarded all the power contracts? OBJ
Who paid for design of the projects? OBJ
Who paid for procurement of these equipment? OBJ then later Yaradua
On who's watch did most of the equipment arrive? Yaradua then GEJ.
So who is responsible for the failure of power reforms?
GEJ.

hotice01: The devils are sooo desperate for a miracle,that they have to go get an angel...

Classic

Any administration that solves the power issue in Nigeria permanently automatically becomes the best since independence IMO.

If this current government gets it done, then I will definitely say....



GEJ till 2099!

chester47: Okay..you're not..okay..Besides you haven't seen cute and beautiful guys..I thought this post could be "am I the beautiful potential lawyer or doctor Engnr. blah blah teen on naira land at 20..Because brother if you want to brag and talk then am only 24 and final year medical student in Ukraine..
