The biggest shocker is APC winning burutu assembly rerun and in Ethiopia west(ibori's handwork).. I sent you a mail
APC won Burutu because of Orubebe influence. That's his stronghold. APC won Ethiope West because of Ibori's influence.

fernando9: My fellow nairalanders, it has come to that point i time when i have to come out and seek for help. I have a B.ed in economics, 2nd class upper. And i haven't been able to secure a job for the past four years. I have really experienced suffering, depression and so many insult, but i choose to hustle and pray for God's intervention. I have considered suicide a lot of times but i really never had the courage to go through with it. I have younger siblings who look up to me for assistance, but i am failing them. At times i shed tears when thinking about all the things i have done just to survive. Even the menial jobs i engage in just to assist myself and siblings is no longer forthcoming. I never wanted to do this, but i have no other option. My fellow nairalanders if there anyway you can be of assistance to me i would really appreciate it. Thanks i wish you all well in your endeavors. #lifeofastrugglinggradguate.
Add your location to your post above. I pray you get the assistance you need.
The possibility of finding a 20-24 year old who has her priorities set straight, is ready for marriage (in all ramifications) and has conquered youthful exuberance is 50/100. The few who are these things have already been picked.
Your other counterparts will call a woman aged 28+ an oldie or an evening newspaper. They want the bodies of an under 18-year-old with the finances and readiness of a 30+ woman in the entity of a 20-24 year old. Delusions.
I tried it years ago and my skin had terrible breakouts. My skin is sensitive too.
It's better used to wash hair if one is suffering from severe dandruff. It'd be squeaky clean but DRY! And you have to moisturize your hair scalp after washing.
Best to avoid the soap in totality.
Really?
Is it hard on the face? Yes but it's a good herbal product. Overall, Dudu osun is a good soap.
Dpharisee: In the next one hour the Rivers state High Court will issue another injunction "Don't make yourself available to the Police" Wike group gets daily injunctions from FCT High Court while Fubara group get their own counter injunction from Rivers High Court since the 2 courts have concurrent jurisdiction.
They have turned our judiciary into a joke, its really disheartening
englishmart: I had a heated argument with some of my friends in construction concerning these two artisanal skills, masonry and welding. Masons/bricklayers said, "Masonry, while welders claimed theirs was more lucrative.
I need a more learned perspective. What do you guys think?
Welding and fabrication is lucrative, just be good at it.
Not interested due to cultural differences and bodily features. I like to suck breasts, and theirs no big. Also, once married, the man is bound to Japan for eternity. I like to choose, not to be dictated to.
So true, it's rare to see a busty Japanese lady. I like how hardworking their women are.
