SalamRushdie:
Sorry to say with the corruption in the current discos I don't see any reprieve from the poor electricity supply in the near future

Would you care to explain further?

osahonmk:

Ikeja Disco took second, with total payment of N29bn (31.6%)

http://www.energywatchng.com/discos-paid-gencos-n88-03bn-n331bn-2016-nbs/

One of those figures is not right either the N29bn or the 31.6% since 29bn is not 31.6% of the N42.4bn invoice which Ikeja Disco received

Logic!!!!

olatunji21:
In as much as Jimi is my preferred candidate, i can't possibly ignore the fact that he divided us along ethnic lines..Lagos state which pride itself as a home for all, is now battling for Supremacy between the Yoruba's and the igbos. that is really pathetic...Jimi destroyed our Lagos, My lagos, your lagos.. History will never forget him..

Is Jimi now the Oba Akiolu?

Those things are not monthly. They are YEARLY

Stop misleading people.

I think the PLUS means it's a plus to have a masters. I don't think it's an additional essential requirement.

This is a good opportunity for people who like that sort of thing. NB takes care of its people.

I was about to say something really hurtful about this young lady whom I've never met but I've managed to restrain myself thank Ja!

Feraz: Of course, there are atheists in this country. For the fact that some don't profess their beliefs due to stigmatization in job opportunities doesn't mean there aren't. I have lectures that are atheists.

I don't see any harm in them having friends that are atheists. Just make sure if you want your children to mature in their beliefs (not radicalized), then be prepared to answer whatever questions they'll throw at you. If you provide appropriate answers, then they won't have reasons to deviate from their beliefs; not trying to shun them or shouting at them for the questions thrown at you. At least, when you let them do so, it shows you're tolerant of others and it helps in making the world a better place.

Thank you Sir. Well said.

I'll cross that bridge when I come to it..

One thing is for sure, no harm can come of religious inclusion and tolerance. I would argue that these are the cornerstones of most faiths. 'Judge not other's, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' Why can't people truly practise what they preach?

What is it about the human condition that makes us want to dictate to others what they should be? Could it be that we're so insecure in ourselves that we seek reaffirmation from seeing others the same way?

Why do we constantly have to create ingroups and outgroups even when life would be simpler (and simpler equals better) without them?

I'm not a religious person but I consider the possibility of a supernatural being and I believe that people of faith and secular people can and should co-exist in peace forged through mutual respect and constructive discussion. I don't think bottling.up the.issues and ignoring our differences is the way to go, neither is fighting, name-calling and stereotyping. There IS a middle ground.

red101: now you are getting my point.
culture is a WAY OF LIFE. It is your EVERYDAY existence.
if you no longer dance atilogun, then it is no longer part of your culture but a past history that you are remembering once in a while.
just like visiting a museum.
when culture changes, the old way of life becomes a part of history. We should remember our history but doesn't mean we shouldn't move forward and accept changes to our culture.

remember, your forefathers probably danced atilogun everyday. but today, it makes no sense. our culture has evolved.
in the future, we may have better technology and won't even need cars anymore. but once in a while, we might use it to remember our past history. doesn't mean we should start seeing change as a negative thing.

Well said. Why fuss about things you can't control?

dhammyg: TOO MANY HYPOCRITES ON THIS THREAD
WITH THE WAY PEOPLE ARE COMMENTING U WILL THINK NAIJA IS MADE UP OF SAINTS AND ANGELS

Ese gan jor. I don like you now.

Want to share this passage of Gloria Gilbert musing in Fitzgerald's 1922 novel, The Beautiful and Damned:
(Tiwa's husband can certainly not be acccused of no. 3 below)
---
"There are four general types of husbands.

"(1) The husband who always wants to stay in in the evening, has no vices and works for a salary. Totally undesirable!

"(2) The atavistic master whose mistress one is, to wait on his pleasure. This sort always considers every pretty woman 'shallow,' a sort of peacock with arrested development.

"(3) Next comes the worshipper, the idolater of his wife and all that is his, to the utter oblivion of everything else. This sort demands an emotional actress for a wife. God! it must be an exertion to be thought righteous.

"(4) And Anthony—a temporarily passionate lover with wisdom enough to realize when it has flown and that it must fly. And I want to get married to Anthony.

Apatheist: I don't believe god exists, how can you hate something that doesn't exist? Do you hate Santa Claus?

To me, all the gods -- especially the Abrahamic ones--are psychopathic characters in bronze age novels. Like Voldemort in the Harry Potter series.

Militant atheist. That's what you strike me as, but I like you.

Come, these kinds of posts are becoming too frequent on Nairaland. What is happening?
And, isn't there a place called university where people 'bleep' each other at random? OP you need to find that place fast!



Yes, I've lost half of my self respect by commenting on this topic. Come, what kind of advice were you expecting sef? Smh..

Boys...getting cat-fished on Nairaland since 2005!

@OP This one is on the lighter side but I'd be interested to know what are your thoughts on taking a bottle of water to an interview.
