That is the law of see finish at work... |
Yorubas do not have a history of cowardice. Yoruba built an empire that fought wars- won lots of wars and lost some. Yoruba has been in opposition since 1960, this is the first time in our history that we will align with federal government. Most activist in Nigeria have been Yorubas, the likes of Gani, wole soyinka, Yorubas have been in fore front of fighting injustice- NADECO during abacha, and tunde bakare and wole soyinka during yaradua-Jonathan issue. These are not acts of cowardice to me. Some of the bravest soldiers during civil war were Yorubas. |
another thing i noticed years back in teens church was that, whenever pastors are praying for teenage boys, they always prophesy presidents ("i see presidents here", the common line), but when praying for teenage girls, they always pray for first ladies. Like can't women also be presidents, must their highest achievement only be who they are married to, ![]() |
fairygeh:Thank God a girl can see it in this light. Don't know why Your fellow ladies are against him telling his brother. |
sukkot:I seriously don't know why people are asking him to mind his business. To be a prostitute, you must have a very low self esteem. To stand on the road, almost unclad, people pricing you like an item, like a goat, you get to sleep with people you will never date on a good day-drunk, conductor, drivers, kids younger than you. You can't be a prostitute and be normal, that's why most of them drink and smoke. So tell me, how can someone like that be a good wife. And what happens when the brother starts meeting people that know her as a prostitute. Op, just tell your brother, and let him decide. Shikena. Am not saying prostitutes do not deserve a good life, but the man has to know, and decides that he can live with it. |
I don't support broke guys being in a relationship, and I also don't support jobless broke ladies being in a relationship. As a guy, if you a comfortable, go for financially ok ladies. Broke ladies need to focus their attention on breaking through poverty before thinking of marriage, husband is not the solution to your poverty. |
Zoharariel:Seriously, whoever is paying that guy to be on nairaland is wasting his money. He is so unstable, incoherent, unintelligent, and clu.eless. Am tired of reading his post on nairaland, i wonder why he came back. A little advice for you barcanister, am not against you being paid (man must chop) but do it professionally. At this rate, no one will take you serious again. |
I have passed the farm a couple of times, will try to visit it soon. |
GlorifiedTunde:Once witnessed something funny. during the ebola crisis, a woman came to church with her 2 kids and maid, she disinfected her hands and that of her kids, but didnt allow her maid to, she just shoved her on after she was done. this is the maid that probably spends more time with her kids than she does, if she contracts ebola, won't her kids also be affected. Women should learn to treat their maids like one of theirs. |
Ioannes:I don't know how someone will call this love. The lady is obviously irresponsible. If it was 1st child I could say it was circumstantial. |
Speaking to inherent challenges involved in storing such high quality video, SkyNews notes that “around 1.25GB of storage would be needed every second at 30 frames per second This means you will need terrabyte storage for it. |
Yar adua released his asset declaration contrary to advice from CCB, Buhari's chooses to wait for CCB to finish verification before releasing the full details. |
vicadex07:Even in Nigeria, Yorubas travel. Go to Jos, kano, Kaduna, PH, lots of Yoruba business men and workers are there. The only place yorubas don't travel to is SE. |
If APC was responsible for vandalism under Jonathan's administration, what did jonathan do about it? He was in control of the army, navy, airforce, SSS, police, EFCC. If with all the power he had, he could not stop those making him look inefficient, can we therefore conclude that he was truly clue.less. |
I really don't know why people are shouting about buhari's appointments. The job of ministers, PM, DGs, and all other appointments isn't to represent their constituency. That's the job of local government chairmen, state house of rep, federal house of rep and senators. Buhari appoints people to represent him, to help him achieve his goals and vision. I understand that Nigeria is quite complex and pluralistic, but ultimately, it is the presidents call to appoint who he can work with. |

Is oshiomole like this? Will a lady date obasanjo or this guy? |
Jonathan's record will be difficult to break. |
“The credibility of the party as a veritable political alternative to the APC has been nearly irreparably damaged. Some of the recent disclosures and more that may come up from the impending probes will further damage the national acceptability of the party What did PDP do that okupenisnscared of being revealed by probes. |
Aareonakakanfo:Lol @ squad. They are strongly organised lollllll |
Aareonakakanfo:That has been my attitude since. I just consider all what they say as vital lies, a psychological term for lies we tell ourselves to cope with reality. In reality, things aren't looking too good for them, so they have to keep repeating these lies, and shouting it till they start believing it, thinking that will give them a measure of comfort and happiness. The sad part is, they are beginning to believe these lies, and losing touch with reality. Next time you see one of their lies, just pity them, no need arguing with them, well, maybe just for the fun sha, you can indulge yourself. |
Des Moines, Iowa (CNN)Donald Trump said Saturday that he's prepared to spend $1 billion on his campaign if necessary. "It's irrelevant," he said when asked by CNN's Jeremy Diamond outside the Iowa State Fair on how much he has spent so far on his campaign. "I make $400 million a year, so what difference does it make? What I want to do is make the country great." Pressed again later in the afternoon if he would spend up to $1 billion, Trump was more definitive: "If necessary, I will spend it, yes." Trump said he does not have to worry about pleasing lobbyists like other candidates because his race is self-funded. The businessman said he recently turned down $5 million from a lobbyist wanting to contribute to his campaign. The bombastic billionaire, who has claimed he's worth $10 billion, has given to candidates in the past -- including Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton -- so, according to him, they will do his bidding. That's why he said Saturday the more than $100 million raised by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush will make him a "puppet" controlled by his donors. Trump also said outside the fair that he had just put out a position paper on immigration, which will be revealed on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday morning. On Friday, Trump said he was going to release detailed proposals on immigration and overhauling the tax code next month. The immigration plan will include Trump's oft-repeated pledge to build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico. "Nobody is going through my wall. It's going to be strong. It's going to be solid," he said. Some of Trump's previous statements on immigration -- including ones in which he said Mexico was sending rapists and murderers to the U.S. -- have resulted in criticism of the real estate mogul, but he insisted Saturday he's made no mistakes during his campaign. "The people understood it," he said. http://edition.cnn.com/2015/08/15/politics/donald-trump-billions-campaign-spending/index.html |
Yes, one man can make a difference, a man with a keen understanding of human nature and vision, that is. This man is Singapore’s minister mentor Lee Kuan Yew. Lee Kuan Yew turned a developing nation into one of the world’s most developed countries. Singapore is often referred to as the Switzerland of South East Asia, thanks to his leadership and unswerving determination. According to National Geographic Magazine, in an article titled “The Singapore Solution” It is stated that Singapore’s per capita income for its 3.7 million citizens exceeds that of many European countries, the education and health system can compete with anything in the West, government officials are pretty much corruption free, 90 percent of the households own their own homes, taxes are relatively low, the streets and sidewalks are pristine and you do not find homeless people or slums. Singapore also boasts an unemployment rate of less than 3 percent. Singapore has often been referred to an economic miracle, because it has achieved so much, in such a short time. In June 5th 1959, Lee Kuan Yew, a prominent member of the People’s Action Party became the first prime minister of a pre independent Singapore and remained in his post for twenty six years. In 1965 when Singapore finalized it’s independence from Malaysia, Lee Kuan Yew had his work cut for him. He started out with what most leaders would consider an impossible undertaking. When Lee Kuan Yew was head of an independent Singapore, one of his first tasks was to have the sovereignty of Singapore recognized by the United Nations. In September of 1965, Singapore joined the United Nations. He believed that government officials should be well paid, in order to curtail corruption. He also felt that an overgrown population would threaten economic progress. Therefore, he developed the Stop at Two Family Planning Campaign. The Stop at Two Family Planning Campaign was an aggressive method of discouraging rapid population growth, by urging families that already had two children to undergo sterilization. Let just say, it worked a little too well. At the current time, Singaporeans are simply not reproducing, with a fertility rate of 1.29 and not a whole lot of intercourse going on, Singapore population growth is largely dependent on immigration. At the present time, in order to prevent the extinction of the Singaporeans, the government is even giving married women baby bonuses for having three or four children. Extremes are bad, especially if family planning policies are misguided. Economic growth is encouraged by what some Singaporeans refer to as the “big stick and the big carrot.” Everyone can see evidence of the big carrot, by simply witnessing Singapore's impressive economic growth. The big stick is another matter, this is done by creating and enforcing many rules that are foundational for a well ordered nation. When entering the country, on each airport entry card, it is stated in read letter that the penalty for drug trafficking is “DEATH.” Minister Yew describes human nature as being animal like. He believes that man can be trained and needs to be disciplined. This is accomplished by lots of rules. The enforcement of these rules is quiet strict. They are enforced with anything from fines to occasional outings. They also believe in practicing corporal punishment. In Singapore caning is mandatory for at least 42 offenses. |
Niklausa:I think you have said it all. But there are quite a number of intelligent girls out there though, just that those that objectify themselves are more in your face. |
PDP has been ruling for 16years, so only PDP members can be prosecuted. PMB's focus seems to be on federal level. |
dokunbam:I was going to say this before seeing your comment. According to the report, he has been under investigation since October, while Jonathan was president. Jonathan said some people in his cabinet are bh sponsors, may be Dasuki was one of the people he was suspecting. |
I think things suit yorubas for now the way it is. Commercial center of the country is in SW, Ogun state is fast becoming the industrial center. Economically, most states are relatively OK apart from osun and ekiti. Academically, the best universities are in SW-unilag, oau, ui, health wise, we have the best teaching hospitals in the zone. Apart from during gej's era, yorubas are always politically relevant. In most indices, SW is doing well, so the setup suits the yorubas, and as such no immediate desire to secede. What yorubas have always clamored for is federalism, unlike the SS and SE that feel marginalized. The funny thing is that yorubas never wanted one Nigeria at independence. It was zik that pushed for it. |
This guy reminds me of joe carrol in The Following |
ladies watch telemundo and acccuse guys of being unromantic, guys watch p.orn and accuse ladies of being dull in bed ![]() |
wirinet:Thank you for this comment. Most people on here comment blindly, based on sentiments. I have issues with some of Buhari's actions so far, but this to me is long over due. A spoke person for an intelligence agency that had zero intelligence. How can she claim that APC hacked INEC when INEC isn't online. She made a lot of facepalm deserving comments that showed that she was biased. |
There has never been a southern alliance. The first ever alliance in nigeria was between the SE and the north that produced Nnamdi Azikwe as president. The north has always been more united. There is a northern governors' forum, but no southern governors' forum. |
