Sirniyeh: A true Nigerian will not publish a book to profess that Nigeria's problem does not lie in leadership but followership. That comment alone depicts the book to be a bunch of lies. A leader is saying the followers are the problem and followers are also saying leaders are the problem. Now lets judge. Who loots public treasury, leader or follower? In fact, I think I support Buhari for not hiding his feelings publicly by denouncing such barbaric assertions of the author. He is a brave man, i think such person can handle naija without fear of anybdy.

I would have love to say that, you suck for saying this, but I won't say it.
The problem of Nigeria is not leadership but followership.
Are the leaders born or are the not made?
Who make bad leaders? They made themselves?
Today's leaders were once a follower. Get that into your ff*cken skul

18months to settle down you say?
Now let's set your priorities straight and that of the lady in question.

The average Nigerian familt wants their daughter to get married after her first degree. The only two exceptions in this case are; The lady gets pregnant and her people are ashamed of her giving birth to the baby in their home or she is from an almost below average home (poor family background) as such they want her to go so that they can feed (minus one mouth) less mouth.

Secondaly most girls in this age bracket are not in anyway desperate to get married. They still see themselves as beauty queens because they sometimes get as much as 5-10 toasters everyday because of their youthful nature. This will make them assume they will remain 'hot cake' for ever and think there will always be that suitor waiting to get married to them whenever they are ready.

Except for few families which still nuture their female children, its almost common for most ladies within that age range to learn basic home chores in their boyfriend's place.

Though not in all cases, but if you are one who cares a lot about financial management and knowledge, most young ladies in that age bracket might not fit in. The want to get the latest phone, gadget, hand bag and fashion accessories to meet up with their peers. If you are not one of those guys that spend frivolously on a lady when it isn't relevant, she might term you stingy as won't consider settling down with you because she rarely knows what is the difference between necessity and wants.

Above all Intelligence, if you are a serous minded and fast thinker, it might be an hill task finding a lady that will match your intelligence. I am not talking of knowing latest music, movie or celebrity gist. I am talking of beneficial reasoning.

If you don't mind the above, then you can stick with them and groom them with patience. Otherwise maybe you should stick with the law of nature that "the older the wine, the better it taste".

preach precher

bashr8: that age group is the worst for a guy hoping to settle, they lack respect, run their mouth a lot and dont understand what commitment is,they dont know what they want yet and cant understand right from left. at that age they are still attracted to yopie yopie, party ,baseball hat wizkid kind of guys thats why most guys either marry their age mate or wait till their 31 ,32 to marry a girl that is at least 25 or 26. its hard to find a cool headed ones that have matured , the worse is if she is still a student or in nysc she will be bleeping her school mates or school boyfriend while your at the side

Experience

liman tertsa: Whoes head?

your head

PretiEbony: shey your big head

yes! Your head

fellis: Often we here our 'leaders' say no religion preaches violence, and this gets me(and am sure a whole others) confused. When Ku klux klan and akhwat akwop kill they say clearly that they are doing the work of Jesus. Popular versus from the Bible are cited to support their claim such as:

Numbers 31:17-18
Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, 18but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man.

Judges 21:10-12
10So the assembly sent twelve thousand fighting men with instructions to go to Jabesh Gilead and put to the sword those living there, including the women and children. 11“This is what you are to do,” they said. “Kill every male and every woman who is not a virgin.” 12They found among the people living in Jabesh Gilead four hundred young women who had never slept with a man, and they took them to the camp at Shiloh in Canaan.

1 Samuel 6:19
And he smote the men of Bethshemesh, because they had looked into the ark of the LORD, even he smote of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten men: and the people lamented, because the LORD had smitten many of the people with a great slaughter.

Luke 19:27
"But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me."

Luke 12:49
"I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!

Matthew 10:34
" Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."

2 Peter 2:12
"These false teachers are like unthinking animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed. They scoff at things they do not understand, and like animals, they will be destroyed."

John 2:15
[Jesus] made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple area, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.

Psalms 137:8-9
O Babylon, you will be destroyed. Happy is the one who pays you back for what you have done to us.Happy is the one who takes your babies and smashes them against the rocks!

Psalms 139:19-22:
"Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: Depart from me therefore, ye bloodthirsty men. For they speak against thee wickedly, And thine enemies take (thy name) in vain. Do not I hate them, O Jehovah, that hate thee? And am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? I hate them with perfect hatred: They are become mine enemies."

Matthew 10:34
" Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."

Luke 22:36,38
[Jesus] said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one, " The disciples said, "See, Lord, here are two swords." "That is enough," he replied.

Matthew 10:35
35 For I have come to turn “‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—

Luke 12:50-53
50 But I have a baptsm to undergo, and what constraint I am under until it is completed! 51 Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division. 52 From now on there will be five in one family divided against each other, three against two and two against three. 53 They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”

Hosea 13:16
"Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up."

Revelation 2:22-23
"Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works."

[size=15pt]Deuteronomy 17:2-5
If there be found among you , that , hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them , Then shalt thou , tone them with stones, till they die.
[/size]
The above versus {and many others} and many portions in the Bible support killing. Hence a question is to be asked to our leaders and christian friends who deny violence in christianity.
Are kkk and akhwat akwop christians? Are they not faithful followers?


MTSHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW.

Bella3 abi wetin be your name? Abeg go and read this thread jor: https://www.nairaland.com/960240/islam-terrorism
Before you ask stup[i]i[/i]d questions.

And you had better start following Nigerian politics so you can know the politicians that sponsor Boko Haram instead of fool[i]i[/i]shly swallowing everything the news feeds you.

Quote it contextually next time, Ok?

Your head

I am still wondering if this is a joke or a serious issue, whatever it is. The truth is that, the man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them. In order words, books men read do influence their thoughts and of course, their ways of doing things.
Most Nigerians from the 60s to the 90s(now our leaders) mostly read books from Maccmillan and the Oxford publishers whose stories were TORTOISE related,eg:
1. The Dancing Palm Tree
2. Everybody
3. The Tortoise and the wisdom of the world
4. The Tortoise and the Magic Drum
5. The Price of Greed
6. How the Tortoise overcame the Elephant and the Hippopotamus
etc
Now tell me how a child can spent his early school days studying tortoise without being influenced by ie- cunny, corrupt...

I hope he's not terrorising the aquatic bodies.

You don't respect your leader(s) but you feel that you will be one tomorrow.

bubadaniel13: Na wah oh,but the truth is that,the community maybe angry but that is not the best option,now who go dey for darkness no be them?dialogue is always the best option,I feel for the community but this will further plunge them into darkness.

bros, before d closure of transmission or whatever, they were in total darkness. So it's all the same. In Nigeria, this is the procedure to get what you want.
It's Violent first followed by dialogue. Ask MEND,OPC etc

Dancing "Etighi" is now a qualification for the Presidency. While are most Nigerians like YOU sooooooooo STUPIIIIID up to dis level.
Oshio is going no where come 2015. Get it into that your skull.

SmoothCrim2015: Only Ghanaian rule can save West Africa.

In your small mind!

sunkoye: half education can kill oo and very fast. the last time i checked, the cost of fuel per liter was on average 1.65 ghana cedis. simple calculation noni!

Then a litre of petrol is cheaper in Nigeria

[quote author=~Bluetooth]Look at this hottentot,let Oxford educate you.

Interview

>Noun

1 an occasion on which a journalist or broadcaster questions a person.

2 a formal meeting at which a person is asked questions to assess their suitability for a job or college place.

3 a session of formal questioning of a person by the police.

VERB

Hold an interview with someone. . . NB - it didnt says anything about the interviewer or the interviewee.

You need to understand the context in which a word is used before trying to ridicule the sentence or the writer.Meanwhile,you arent smart as I thought either.[/quote]Tell them. I now believe that the standard of education in Nigeria has totally fallen. This can be seen in >90% of the comments here.
Dont't disgrace your family here, if you don't know what to comment.

dorox: E dey pain you say people don dey gradually come to see say your pastor dey do ojoro?

Sharaaaaaaaaap!
Nigerian mentality, if no be juju na ojoro. When will your eyes open? Shey, na because dis man na Nigerian?

Dambudzo: Hard isn't it to come to the conclusion that your prophet is no different from the yahoo boys ? We won't shut up until this pickpocket stops deceiving the faithful.

My Prophet? When did men stated having their prophet? I think it's only God that has.
M.umu, TB has made his own name n u r struggling todraw attention on NL.

Will you all shut up? Believing in a Prohecy or in God is not composory. Why making noise here?
I repeat SHUT UPPPPPPPPPPP

Kobojunkie: a) What Careless statement did he make?

b) What part of the bible says that a Pastor can not be a politician?


You comment reminds me of the reason why I made it known yesterday that when it comes to politics, even here in the US, I stay away from the reasoning of Nigerians. It just never makes sense when they try to play connect the dots.

All this man has done is try to do what he knows best to do and that is sensitize people to what is going on . .. so what if he happens to be a pastor on the side? Would it have been any different if he was a Babalawo ni? Or is it that you feel the Bible does not allow him to prophecy and call for the people to say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH at the same time? If yes, please show Book, Chapter and Verse . . . .

Bros, let him continue. I think he should be asking John the Baptist what happen to his head. Wisdom is needed.

Prophecies can be adverted. I learnt that GEJ gas been reading Psalm 35

Where Beaf dey? Come out for your award

NITEL is the BEST

I hope actor no die.
I'm still waiting to hear Boko Haram claiming responsibility.

Hey! How I wish all the Legislooters, Execu-thieves and the Judi-sharers will be affected.
I see a new Nigeria.

Those guys na my Uncle
