I think the reactions of the muslims are a bit extreme. sheesh, it ain't that serious. It's not like she killed anybody. So she said something bad about your religion, so what? then say something bad about christianity? I am pretty sure christians don't care. If a muslim had done this in Redeemed camp while Adeboye was speaking, I can assure you nothing would have happened. They would just escort the person out. That was all that was needed in this case. Somebody should have escorted her out and continue their praying. Expelling the girl was really unwarranted

Nigeria is a country of (nuclear) over-reactors. So no less is expected. Some are expecting her head to be cut off. You would think Allah came from wherever with a stroke from her behavior. Yes I think what she did is rude, but come on! Worse has been done.

Ok but the principle of what he's saying isn't changed by what you just said, Africans gained from European contact and African poverty is a direct result of their own lack of intellectual capacity. This in a nut shell is what he was saying, The wheel being an example of the lack of capacity which is related to poverty. He implied that it cost Europeans more to maintain colonies. In other words, if they were businesses then colonialism would be written as a loss to the europeans.

What exactly do you define intellectual capacity? I feel that your definition is extremely biased. So Africans did not have the same technological advancement as Europeans and Europeans did not have the same technological advancement as the Japanese. I don't think that makes Africans less intellectually capable than Europeans in everything. I think however, that Europeans are artisans of manipulations.

I love one of her songs - By your side.
The first time i heard it was in Ssex and the city(series). it was touching. I literally fell in love with the song.

This is my favorite song by her.

It will put the ENTIRE population to work.

Haiti is VERY VERY close to the U.S. Only a mere 2 hour flight.


They will BUILD AND BUILD AND BUILD a much better and more BEAUTIFUL country.


Corporations always wanted to INVEST in Haiti now is there chance.


Bill Clinton is HAITI'S Envoy.

Why hadn't they build build and build before this. Why haven't people built up Sri Lanka and some of the countries affected by the Tsunami?

I can't understand how someone can watch something like that happen to people including little children innocent dead, dying and make such an idiot comment. Even if you are dumb enough to believe its true this is absolutely not the right time to make such a comment. It was a freaking natural disaster no one is above and beyond it. As I Christian I believe Pat Robertson is suffering from senility as someone said. Idiot comment! I wonder if people in New Orleans, California, Sri Lanka and any place that have suffered from Natural disaster have made a pact with the devil. Infact since every country is prone to natural disaster the whole world made a pact with the devil. The little girl who was pulled from under rubbles and then died from infection due to her foot being crushed must have made a pact with the devil. Silly!

Who's this FagSmasher character? AdamBrody or a retarded copycat? Anyway the whole crackhead thing is played out, it's not even funny anymore. Come out with something new. Geez!

You don't need to try to defend yourself jus accept your flaws and improve on them

I still don't see how not cheating with a married man is a flaw.

Allegedly, I'm telling you a black woman who have trapped him with a child. A black woman would have been on Oprah displaying their child.

You're a mess!

He is arguably in less drama than if he had involved himself with black women alone. For instance, he would have had a string of love children by now because of the conniving money grabbing black women out to bag child maintenance money.

It was a yes or no question

Less drama will do.

So is Tiger Woods currently dramaless right now?

domorehill:
Tiger Woods' had extramarital affairs with ten other white ladies and none of this ladies were blacks Africans, he Tiger woods’ is half black and is married to      Swedish blonde Elin Nordegren and leaves in American and travels the worlds on his PGA thing, he is also the world richest sport man of all time, now i have always know there was a reason with black African women, but to have Tiger woods’ prove it so internationally makes me wonder, Black women need to change their perception, demand, methodology of life and money conscious life style, there are so many issue we brother have with African woman and that’s the reason most of them are unmarried ( African Women ) and we want nothing to do with them.

Moore,UK.

You sir are an incredible fool! You are silly and a dullard and please take as much offense as possible to this statement.  First of all, Tiger Woods is also mixed Thai but he did not get caught having extramarital affairs with an Asian.  Secondly what makes you think the white race is currently holding a white pride conference on the fact that Tiger woods cheated with 14 white women. I see in your family it is something to be proud of if a female family member is caught with a married man. Shameful!  Do you really think all the women coming forward to the media are doing it out of the goodness of their heart. I bet if a black woman is implicated dullards like you will come back and blame it on black women being greed.  Since you have so many issues with "African women" then date others, I doubt you will be removing anything from the race.

[size=20pt]Almajiri[/size]


Almajiri - ( Hausa word) street urchins who beg for alms on the street. They are mostly children taking away from their parents in a different town under the guardianship of a cleric to study Quran in another town. Due to acute poverty, no provision is made for their welfare and they are exposed to elements and crime.This children spend most of their time begging on the street than learning the Quran. The money they make during begging is taking back to the cleric malam. Technically, they are slaves to the cleric. Due to lack of welfare and medical care, most of the children are abused, ended up with a lifelong ailment or death.

After learning the Quran - Islamic jurisprudence, history and culture, they graduated without learning any practical skill, therefore they ended up doing all sort of manual unskilled jobs like, shoe shiner, Guards, truck pusher petty traders. You hardly see them in skill jobs like carpenter, welder, mechanics.

This almajiri form the bulk of talakawa (poor people) in the far north making up more than 70% of the population. This phenomenon explain some of the acute poverty in the north. Attempt by the government to change the situation were met with stiff and brutal resistance from Muslim clerics. They form breeding ground and over supply for groups like boko haram.

Whenever there is riot in the north, the almajiris form the bulk of the urban guerrillas who unleashed senseless violence on innocent victims. They are poor, angry and have nothing to lose.

I couldn't stoplaughing when I read the part about truck pusher. Sorry.

Am not in the UK.

Good.

fayahsoul:

look, ndigbo are very progressive and in as much as we seek individual success there's still this overstanding that the wider community has to evolve and develop together before true progress can be made. One is nothing without his/her community. We do learn from our mistakes and try to rectify were possible. So the misplaced hate of the ND 'minorities' is just unfortunate and self-desructive. . But that won't hold us back becos we are forever ready to restrategize. Trust!

Let us work together and achieve something meaningfull. Whether ND wants "true federalism" or secession is not the point. The point is we have similar goals, enemies and struggles hence it will be wise to cooperate and consolidate for the betterment of all involved.

Stop the pettiness it will lead you no where.

Sadly most people have not come to the understanding that they have similar goals and enemies as Ndigbo so they have allowed themselves to be "divided and conquered." How sad.

I think the pictures of the innocent people dragged from their cars needs to be posted right beside the bullet riddled body of that man. Maybe then the sympathesizer will remember/ understand that whether or not the justice in this Yusuff's execution was right or wrong he is gone for the good of innocent people. Well until another deminted Northern incited riot claims more lives.

and if it were up to tayo D blacks will still be slaves in america now.

anybody here who does not agree that what happened to mr gates would never have happened if the prof were white are living in chronic delusion.

Seriously. Sometimes I wonder if he is black or is so lost in the worship of whites that he forgets himself.

calibabe:
I need help, i have been married for almost 2 years and its been a bittersweet experience, most of the times i regret getting married and when things are good i enjoy being married until lately, in the past couple of weeks, we hadn't spoken alot, and i found out i was pregnant, i told him and the next thing he said was "u've gotten what u wanted" and it was a shocker, since i found out i was pregnant my husband hasn't for one day asked me if i was okay, i wake up every morning very sick (morning sickness) but i have to get enough rest because i have to go to work inorder to pay the bills. and after about 5 days of not speaking to me and me minding my business and weighing my options, if i want to be in a loveless marriage, my husband came up to me and started accusing me of disrespecting him, and i am like, u haven't spoken to me in 5 days so where did all the disrespecting come from, and he says its my attitude, and i asked him if he understand what i am going through, my body is changing, i wake up every morning sick, which last through out the day, i do not have the time to disrespect him (because he is not currently working). but imagine this few days after i said i was pregnant, he told me i need to lose weight and that was like a blow to my self, (apparently all he care about is how much i weigh- since i got married to him its been lose weight lose weight and i have lost over 40lbs- but b4 we got married he never asked me to lose weight), my doctor said i should not lose weight but try not to gain as much weight.
well it all blew up with him calling me names, saying i am a witch, i am a bad person, i am hindering his progress and that the baby is not even his, and it just came to me that this man does not love me at all, so i went on my knees and begged him in the name of God, to please leave me, if i am a witch and a bad person and i am not carrying his baby then he should go, cuz i have tried being in a marriage where he doesn't love me at all, and calling me names that my parents have never called me s unacceptable, i regretted not listening to my dad when he told me not to marry him, now how do i tell my dad i no longer want to be married to my husband (my parents call and ask me if my husband is treating me fine, i lie and say yes), i don't know how to tell them and how they will react.

Don't worry about the possible I told you sos you might get from your parents. Leave that stupid jobless idiot. He has the nerves to tell you to lose weight while he is jobless. You are supposedly hindering his progress, yet the money you earn is keeping him under a roof and providing him shelter. If he doesn't think he is man enough (which is not) to impregnate you then you need to leave with "immidiate alacrity" as Nigerians call it. What the heck is the point of putting yourself in undue stress with that fool when you are pregnant. It is time to fend for yourself and your child rather than a grown dullard. If you live close to some friends move out.

Beware: The next questions might sound stupid.

1. Can you buy the burnt sugar off the shelf
2. If not, how do you burn the sugar?

Buying burnt brown sugar is basically buying molasses. I usually burn the sugar by putting some sugar in a tin can and then leaving on the gas. Brown sugar burns because of the molasses in it whereas white sugar turns to syrup.

TOPE2000!:
lolz its actually called chicken curry not curry chicken

The Jamaican dish is called curry chicken and the Indian one is chicken curry. The way Jamaicans make curry chicken is different from the Indian recipe, funnily. I watched a lot of videos on the Indian recipe and having grown up in Jamaica, there are differences in the two recipes. The Nigerian recipe is more similar to the Indian recipe in terms of making look more like a stew than a thick rich gravey.

Ehoi:
Have they asked why there is no electricity? The electricity supply is directly linked to the security situation in the niger delta. Most of the gas pipes have been blown up thats why the turbines cannot generate electricity.

Really? It seems like before the whole ND situation excalated to the level it has, Nigerians were still have the same electricity problem. Everyone wants the march to be about what their idea of what should be marched for. Not everybody can be pleased at the same time. Other people could design their own million man march the way they want.

thats for class-room teaching.

USA wiped-out RED-INDIANS to have peace in AMERICA!!

Not quiet sure if this was a joke, but in case its not please go back through your history book. American Indians were in the continent way before the Europeans came. The reasons they were killed off (wiped-out) was to allow the Europeans to "peacefully"steal the land of the Native Americans. It's like the arugment that Africans were made slaves because they were lazy whereas the whites stayed in the house drinking lemonade while the "lazy" people toiled in the field on one meal to make the unlazy whites rich.

None. Nigeria and Nigerians need not worry about people coming for a high class political visit. Nigerians need to worry about steady amenities. Whether or not Clinton or Obama comes, many Nigerians are suffering and will continue to suffer because of such misplaced priorities as worrying whether Clinton or Obama should come.

If this story is true, no one forced the woman to lay down and get pregnant. Maybe the sperm donor provided her with some money for biscuit and other stuff, but she can't go around selling children. she can stop having kids, thus no need to sell them.
