Kobojunkie:

@Rosabelle, I read @posakosa's posts and yours.
@Posakosa is NOT The one who claimed our government was working for America and the dutch. @Posakosa, is not the one who claimed most of the companies in Nigeria, companies that control about 98% of the country's revenue, were controllled by the WEST. You claimed the country is the way it is because it is to the interest of the west. You made those claims. So, why are you now telling me @Posakosa had a hand in it?
He didnt have a hand in it Mr Man. I was replying to his claims that the big stakeholders wont let us stand up for our right. He kept claiming the big stakeholders wont sit down if we protest. Thats what I was replying to.
And I repeat, NON OF MY POSTS CLAIM THE WEST IS RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR PROBLEMS.
I squarely blamed our government for NOT WORKIGN FOR ITS CITIZINS.

Im noting a tendency to lie in your comments. Now you imply I said posakosa1 had 'a hand' in my comments when what I said (as all can see) is that I was replying to him.
Please STOP LYING!

Most nairalanders are from the US and UK.
Not true. Most NLanders are from Lagos. You only have to check the way they abuse people. Its only lagosians I know in the whole of nigerian (and I dont mean yorubas', but basically people in lagos) that abuse people without break cos that place is crude and errodes all finery a human being can have

@Rosabelle, after reading all that, are you sure you did not in anyway play the usual BLAME THE WEST CARD at all today?
So of ALLLLL I wrote, the only thing you could pick out was that I was blaming the west? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Why didnt you insert Mr Posakosa1's comments BEFORE my reply to him? ? ? ?
[b]I was RESPONDING to what he wrote and you jumped into a conversation that had NOTHING to do wth what YOU were saying and then you now imply things that werent said undecided My response was to Posakosa1. And I was letting him know it doesnt matter how many stakeholders there are, it is our government we have to hold responsible, not the stakeholders![/b]Im sorry oh, but youre lost. Lost! sad

Quote from Kobojunkie
By the way, Your AGREEING with @ROSE actually is reason why I am of the mind that you BLAME THE WEST as well. Posting that you do and then BACKING OFF of it does not change things.
I NEVER said the west was our problem.
Before you write and attack, read first, I beg you. It was NEVER mentioned in any of my posts. Go back and read
Mr. Posakosa1 had written a lot about the stakeholders (eg corporations) who would not want Nigeria to mvoe forward cos they benefit from our state of confusion. And I was replying to him when I made my comment about the oil companies.
Dont talk if you have not read. I notice you do this a lot and its really becoming annoying cos its difficult to hold a normal discussion on a thread with you and your lousy comments and so called contributions!

Kobojunkie:

The way you conspiracy theorists draw your conclusions never seizes to amaze me. Did you also research what portions of the mentioned companies your own government controls? That loans were obtained to build brigdes from particular countries who were at least willing to give the loans means your country WORKS for those countries? That, according to you, 98% of the revenue generated in Nigeria is from the delta is reason why Nigeria works for America So when the deal to sell these companies to the chinese works out, then you will change your tune to "NIGERIA IS WORKING FOR CHINA"? *** SHUDDERS****

Answer me please. WHO IS THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT WORKING FOR?

Since I said they work for the french and the americans and the dutch and you laughed. Who then are they workign for?

Ou forefathers sold our right to our oil and our land to the white man ages ago for mirrors and powder and fine wrappers. Today, people cannot fish in their waters or plant crops in their backyards liek they used to. Or plant herbs that heal their ailments.
Their land is GONE. Sold to white men, whom our government has refused to call to book.
So WHO tell me, Mr Kobojunkie is our government working for? WHO?
Its our country and an interested government would have long since revoked those rights of land, or demanded a clear-up of the spillage going on.
Dont laugh.

Have you been to Warri? Are you aware that and good 98% of Nigerias revenue is from the Delta??
You laugh?
Are you aware the bridges in Lagos and the city of Abuja (to name a few) were built from the money made by the Americans and dutch?
You laugh?  ? ? ? ? ?

Mr Posakosa spoke of the shareholders who wont allow a change in a developing nation like ours and thats what I was answering to. The corporate organisations who'd want the nation to stay in its present state for their own schemes.
Thats what Im refering to. So dont laugh until youve been to Ijaw and Itsekiri land. Dont laugh if you dont know.
And YES. The big American corporations  have a great stake in making sure A LOT of developing nations like ours dont move forward!
Its not a laughing matter.

So those children . . .because YOU think they wont get jobs in the future (25yrs from now), you think TODAY, we should not educate them?
And those rising costs you spoke of . , .does it mean to fold our arms and tell those market women theres no point giving them loans as they wouldnt beable to cope with the costs anyhow?
Is that your solution? To fold our arms and rant?  smiley

how i wish my chick could reason the way you do, she said that her family is prominent, her sister got a befitting wedding and she must too, estimating the cost, i then asked her what will be a quota , she said ,i will do it all alone , if it cost me changing my job, all these cos some quarrelling. i am tired of her really. pls i just pray my chick could reason like you, let me do the wedding small and in our anniversary it will be great. 0h girl dont let any disway u, just allow your man to decide
Well if her family is prominent, then they should have money now, abi?
Cos as far as I know, im most customs worldwide, the girls family arranges the wedding. The footing of the bill is optional. And if youre already tired now, then my friend getting married will only worsen it lol

The era of nationalist fervor and patriotism has gone, maybe for good. Most youth of today are disillisioned, others disinterested. History has also imposed a Who wan Die mentality in our psyche.  sad

Even the ethnic & religious squabbles here on NL is self evident of the lack of cohesion amongst the youths. embarassed cry
And the challenge is OURS to erase that "who wan die" mentality.
I take it as MY personal duty. Cos that mentality is exactly that "knife" they put in what held us together.

POSAKOSA1:

and after the protest there was light ?
The black man in america didnt get his rights handed down to him after the first march. They march unceasingly. And things are not expected to be better in Nigeria after the first year of protest marches.
But a people would have risen up to say : ENOUGH! And that is what counts. That our voices be heard.

Voices like yours have long since drowned  out the voices of people who decide to move. With your negativity, you try to hinder a moving forward of any kind. At least be quiet for those who have courage and are ready to stop complaining. Dont block their paths with your fear and cowardice!

Posakosa, this is not about Ribadau, its about us and our nation.
Aisha. In this life, you will hear of me. And when you do, you will remember you read me on NL. And I hope you will come join in. May the Lord bless you.
There has to be a fire behind us that doesnt go out after the first attempt.
Because like Mr Posakosa said, people wont sit down and watch. They however will not shoot either, cos those days are gone and the Lord has given us victory.
When I have pulled people and resources and the time is right, we will march!
I will live in that Nigeria where people are praised for their honesty and not their crookery. That Nigeria is my own too. Not only my children will experience it.

We organise a march. A peaceful demonstration where people will come together on a saturday or sunday and march round a city with banners.
There should be no shouting and no arms. No violence of any kind.
Lagos and Abuja for starters. This has to be done at least once inn 5months. Constructively and in an organised manner!

Most times people say only God will save us, an i critisize them but now i realize there is a lot of wisdom in that statement. We have a lot of faith in God and our religious institutions. Now if we can use religion positively we would achieve our freedom. Imagine what will happen if all the churches say No church on sunday rather we are marching to the villa to deman for the removal of Aoondoakaa, Iwu and implementation of the Uwais report and same thing with the mosques. DO you know the population of the masses who worship. The religious organizations are the best avnue to mobilize people to sy no to bad ledership. Think about it

ayo84:

well everybody is saying we need to rise up and save this country,but we are faced with reformers who cant take action, during the abacha era, people were bold enought o organise marches and protests but now we are all chickening out.We need action,imagine what we happen if we youths take to the streets and start a peaceful one million march against this present government.

OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH. May the Lord bless both of you cos it seems as we all were typing, we were on the same wave length.
We now have a democracy. No body can shoot you down. No protest has ever made change like a silent march.
We dont want violence, we dont want a revolution with arms. All other countries who went to arms never knew peace.

The solution for Nigeria is for the churches to be taxed. Every garrage is now a church where people are being promised miracles from God. Its is all a lie. It is the biggest deception and greatest scam in Nigeria. The church!
Tax these churches and you'l see how they'l reduce.

People are being decieved into thinking they can pray and nigeria will be better. It is a lie.
The less churches we have and the less religious we are, the clearer people will think. If you reduce the churches, people will start to ask questions from their government and not from God. They will go to their local government charimans house to ask why they dont have NEPA instead of going to 5pm mass and 7pm prayer meeting. (You can pray in your house with your family you know).
They will stop praying that a messiah be sent down to erradicate corruption. The corruption they themselves are only too happy to encourage.

Prayer without action is nothing.

A good 75% of those churches are visited by the people in power and the pastors dont make the leaders responsible for their actions. And this only happens because everyone has been bribed into silence.
I am a great believer. I am a christian. But the churches in Nigeria are too many. Too many.

If the church joined in in the education of the masses, if the church encouraged the people to go out to the streets and talk until they are heard, if the churches would encourage its members to create a revolution of dialogue in their various fields of work, Nigeria will be better.
But with the way the church of today abuses its hold on the people by making them believe the more they put down for offering and the more they come to church, the more they shall be blessed . . . . . well then, Nigeria is in for it.

Rosabelle are you like my clone or smthn?? lol
Mine's been one month. I couldnt even cry when it happened. I eventually did after about 11 days and that was it. Just one major night of crying.
I deleted ALL our pics (abt 1,000,000 of em) and made sure I emptied d recycle bin for effect.
It's been easier than I thot. It still hurts, yeah. Still miss him, yeah. Still love him, yeah. But I hardly have time 2 think about him grin
I feel a sudden rush of freedom. The pressure to marry is off, I can breathe! I just realised that some days ago
I can give out my mobile numba to ANYONE I so wish. I can take up a job ANYWHERE. I can go ANWHERE.
@Poster
The God factor is major. When you wake up praising God @ the top of your lungs and dancing, there is little room to be sad. Peace that passeth all understanding envelops you. God is a major factor, I tell you.
2ndly, Im always around frnds with crazy sense(s) of humour(s) and I just end up laughing my way thru each day.
3rdly, engage in creative activities. I'm presently @ d top of my creative game, it's amazing what ideas I come up with these days. Prior to now, I was probably too busy being loved up to think as hard as I am doin right now. Just think, think and think. Come up with ideas that are sure to make you hammer. And when you hammer d hammer, you'll be too busy shoppin for shoes to think about the hurt grin
And lastly, it always helps to meet new, interesting guys. Norring serious. But the attention you get distracts. . .
At the end of the day, every single damn thing happens for a reason. And all things worketh 2geda for the good of they that love Him. . .So relax, God is in control!

My dear na so oh. In fact I was soo schocked the night it happened, I too couldnt cry for like 4days. I was in a haze and then I broke down and wont stop crying for more than a week. Everything reminded me of him. My mum kept saying I should keep crying and that a point would come when the tears would be done with and then you start to heal. She said the amount of tears you cry would determine how fast you heal. And I experienced it, cos I cried sooo mmuch, after those ten days, I snapped out of it, and then slowly got myself back together again.
I dont love him anymore. In fact, I wonder if I knew him at all. Its now a distant memory for me, and when occassionally something creeps up that reminds me of him, I smile or laugh my head off at how naive I was about a lot of things.
And because Im the one who got dumped, I know I can do better. So it sets me free to more experience.
Oh and that sence of freedom. You now know you can do better, abi? You have plans and they revolve around YOU. Its a great feeling when youre able to analyse and realise he cant be the only for you out there, so you move on. And mennn, do I love moving on smiley
Problem with such big break-ups is that a girl suddenly feels set free and it'l get more and more difficult for me to settle down to one man in the future, since I know I can be this free lol.

Im a big believer in: 'Every disappoinment is a blessing'. And in my life, Ive learnt, the bigger the disappointment, the great the blessing coming my way.
I got dumped three months ago, so Im talking from experience lol
I cried a lot. Deleted his numbers and threw out his clothes and deleted all emails and text messages I wrote him and he wrote me. And then I cried at the death of my love for him.
Told all my friends and my mum. Talked about it all the time. Cried some more. Cried again. Remembered a lot of memories (5yrs) and cried some more.
I analysed the situation, cried more, and decided he wasnt worth it after all. After 10 days of contunous crying, loss of 6kilos, I started making big plans.  Right now I feel sooo free, its unbelievable. I dont have to think about being someone's wife soon or compromising anything cos Im with someone and so Im free. Its a grand feeling.
Its been three months, and the heartache I felt is now in the past.

in our place its tradition "OMUGWO" the grandmother takes kia of her grandchild for a period of a week till the mother gets her strenght fully back.!!! after this, the grandmother ends her visit!!!!
she does not assume total ownership of the child!!!oooo
Actually I didnt get you wrong. I know what youre talking about cos my mum is Ibo. But even that one week she didnt do, cos today, we have hospitals and prenatal-care. Today a woman doesnt loose as much blood as she used back in the day (which would have caused her weekness). If she has prenatal care etc.
And so basically a girl can leave hospital a day after birth and just be a little tired, but as long as there are no complications, she'd be fine.

i tot as much, that peeps will kick back.(madame rosabell) angry
then why are your parents dressed and beaming smiles when u are getting married?? angry, even though its your day, its also their day.more than 70percent of guests at the wedding are their friends and colleagues.
look, dont get me rung!!!
they will not be there to breast feed u, but they will always remain your parents, if not why did u bring your spouse to them for approval and blessing?
why didnt u pick the first person u saw and get married in another state, and start living without any link to your families.
why do u do invite your inlaw to take kia of the infant baby shortly after childbirth
the point here is that they are a factor in your lives. (am not saying that they control your lives)
Are you just seeing I was the one you wrote the first reply to ? looolll
Ehen. So to reply to this comment. Parents are most defnitely important in our lives. But we should live our own lives when we are adults and not live that community life of the village where everyone is involved in everyone's life.
And as to carrying children to an inlaw. Bear in mind, if this is done where you come from, it must not mean its done everywhere.
My mother was there to deliver all her five grandchildren when they were born, but aside from that, she only gave advice when asked.
She works, is a busy woman and had no time to sit in anyone's house taking care of their chidren, because according to her, she wont bring up her own children and then still bring up her grandlchildren. What then did she bring up her children to be adults for if not for them to be responsible for themselves?
Romance / Re: Is It Strange That I Don't Want A Church Wedding? by Rosabelle(f): 7:39pm On Oct 20, 2009
@ Kobikwelu . . . I get you. But 'befitting' doesnt mean 'plenty'.
Each one will find his or her definition of the word.
And as to what I'd tell my children? Well my parents had 11 people at their wedding. Funny? No.
My father was brought up to understand that in life, there are very few people who will run to your side when you are in need and without you having to ask. Those people are your friends and you should only celebrate with friends. My parents have been married 40yrs
He brought us up the same way. My oldest sister got married and there were just 53 people at her wedding(mind you our family alone makes up about 13 of those 53). My oldest brother had 28 guests at his wedding.
Private and sweet. And their partners still brag about their weddings today (10 and 7 yrs respectively later).
So it doesnt have to big big and wild to have memories. Save your money so your children can go to very good schools  grin

@kobikwelu. . . . Sorry to burst your bubble but its optional. We're going past those days when people did things so others would be happy.
Thats what used to happen in the 'village'.
These days people are sent to school and our parents spend good money so we can develop ourselves. The result? We all end up being individulas (thank God) and each one gradually learns he or she should be considerate but also undestand that you are responsible for yourself.

And so if you sir get married and expect your parents to be the one's to settle arguments between you and your wife, after they have brought you up to full manhood, sent you to school so your future will be bright, and catered for you when you were ill,  if after all this you still expect these same parents who are to be in retirement enjoying themselves somewhere, to come and be settling arguments and telling you in what church to marry or what dress to wear (when youre not 10), well then good luck to you.
A man who cant handle his woman or the women in his life on his own needs to look himself in the mirror and do some soul-searching!

I dont get it. Sometime ago, women used to be known as abuisve, talkative, gossips etc. Today, everywhere you look (especially in our culture), things are quiet until men enter the equation. They brull and stamp and basically act like they have to be heard at all costs.
Whats up with the trouble-looking attitude that MEN are beginning to develop so strongly.
Is it a lack of confidence or what?
Am I the only one who feels this way? Or have you noticed similar?

PS: Lets see who will start abusing me first!

I think Im going to open a new thread called: why are men so abusive?
If a girl says something you dont agree to (and we all dont have to agree), must you abuse her? And resort to highly degrading remarks?
Ive been on threads where 98% of the contributions were from ladies (eg Winter Jackets) and msot of us had different opinions and disagreed with eachother, but never resorted to insulting one another. You people should please read the thread topics before contributing or quarelling about completely off thread stuff.

@Poster (finally I address you smiley ), men thats the way to go girl. Drop all the hulabaloo and do the whole private thing.
