i am considering buying a Chevrolet van for my goods. but was advised against it with a reason that the parts are expensive. the vehicle was cheap though, =N=350,000

they promise 5% interest on cash contribution, but they are not insured. is my money safe with them?

a friend that came back from malaysia told me about their insurance system. once someone graduates, the government fixes him in a job. he chooses an area to live and the mortgage bank will calculate the payment according to his salary and spread over the years, maby 30 or more years. he picks a car, the car insurance company, calculates it according to his salary ver many years. the same with health insurance and etc. if someone commits a crime, he loses everything. so crime rate is very low. here in nigeria, the politicians keep the people poor by stealing national wealth, and the people also keep stealing at every opportunity and corruption goes on.

i had a discussion with someone today and he argued that buhari can't stop corruption in nigeria since he has such allies as obasanjo, tinubu and atiku. he disagreed that the single treasury account can't stop corruption since it's humans that will still manage the account.

what else can be done to help stop corruption?

some call their mother "mumsy" instead of "my mum"

i mean some pple will think "this is still mummy's baby and not a man"

i mean when referring to his mother? does it make him less a man?

he should av minded his own business..

if everyone minds his business there will be chaos. police , army, judges, doctors should mind their businesses too

Kentucky County Clerk Kim Davis was jailed yesterday by an unelected federal judge for holding true to her belief that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. If the government can jail you for holding to the truth about marriage then religious freedom in America does not exist.

i will say emeka ike attracted this evil to himself. he left churches where the undiluted word of God is being preached to a show off "man of God".

what did the constitution say? is it unconstitutional if the president makes all his appointments from one village?

mikolo80:
NOT MUCH WRONG WITH OUR LAWS.
EVERTHING WRONG WITH US(LAW USERS)

nothing is wrong with the immunity on governors and law makers? who will check them when they r corrupt?

mikolo80:
nothing you can do once no.1 is corrupt.
see what happened when she started publishing federal allocation(obj sacked her)
if i were her i would steal my own "share" and distribute to the "owners"(farmers,students,manufacturesr)
get elected to the presidency and THEN crackdown on corruption

somebody said we don't have strong laws against corruption and its very difficult for any democratic government to tackle corruption in nigeria. is that correct? was this properly addressed at the national conference?

I'll give a clue here. If you know someone who is high in the food chain in CBN, ask them what happened to our foreign reserve recently, especially during the PDP convention. You will be told the truth.

Ask yourself, why haven't they been able to defend the naira? If you think it's because of the fall in oil prices, then i'm sorry for you.

tell us if u know

A pastor somewhere told his congregation to eat grass and they did, and you say critical thinking is overrated?
I'm a Christian, but I'm would be stupid not to know that Christianity has been bastardized.

Folks I need some suggestions as regards the above for my two kids are aged 8 and 5.

I already have a routine nailed on reading and mental maths but I feel like I need to be doing something on the above. I just need ideas, I plan on buying a chessboard and teaching them both to play, other ideas welcome.

Before y'all label me an OTT parent , I just want them to get into the habit of thinking out of the box.

politics is a game of power and interests. you get the power and use it to promote ur interests. sometimes how u get the power does not matter. do whatever u can do to get the power, and use it to promote ur interests. what u do to get d power is ur secret, cos it can only be effective if ur opponent is not aware of it. once he bcomes aware, he counters ur moves.

here in abia state, there r two major players in the game of politics. 1. chinedum orji (ikuku). he is d son of the present gov. 2. alex otti. former md diamond bank and gov aspirant from apga

when u observe what is happening in the poor collection of pvc here, u may be tempted to blame jega- the inec chiarman, and accuse him of working with apc to disenfranchise pdp strongholds. but when u observe closely, u may see it as a game. yes- a game by pdp to disenfranchise d masses from voting apga.

here is what i mean: it could be possible that pdp is aware that the masses are in love with alex otti and will vote for him in d election and decide to deny them the power to vote by not letting them get their pvc. lets say they carry d pvc meant for umuahia to ohafia and that meant for ohafia to aba. meanwhile they will make sure every registered pdp member gets his or her pvc. hw will the masses now vote d candidate of their choice?

apc played the same game in lagos.... let the game continue...

Oliveronline:
There are many things we do in Africa that's not a part of our culture from the beginning. you may as well throw your college degree in to the bin since it's un African. you may as well stop typing in English and start typing in your native dialect because every other thing is unafrican. you may as well stop wearing western attire because its unafrican. you may as well drop your religion and go back to the African religion of sango and all because its unAfrican.
Who told u education is not part of our culture from the beginning? Go and read about the early Egyptians. Africans were the first to go to school.. The first doctors, engineers, astronauts were Africans.

culture is subject to modifications to make life easier, but repeating things for no reasons as in white wedding is foolishness

Rapmoney:
As the name implies, 'white wedding' is a cultural way of getting married in the western world. Why do Africans now see it as superior to the normal African cultural marriage where two families meet and dowry is paid? Of what sense does it make to do African traditional marriage and still crown it all with this so-called annoying white wedding? Must we Africans wear those ill-fitting suits and gowns to prove that we have now been married? I personally think Africans are relegating their culture to the background and promoting the white man's culture!

I overheard a colleague of mine at work telling someone that it is a sin to sleep with your 'wife' if the white wedding is not done, even though the dowry has been paid. To me, that is the highest level of cultural inferiority and slavery!!! Are we saying that our cultural marriage is not sufficient? That it must be completed by white wedding?

Our women are not helping matters because they are the most significant agents of cultural slavery. With so much artificial stuffs on them-fake hair(Brazilian, Indian, Peruvian, Venezuelan, Colombian etc), fake eye-lashes, fake nails, fake names, etc, none would want to be married only in our traditional way. Tell a naija girl that you would want only a trad and see the speed she go take leave you. Even the speed of a Bugatti Veron dey learn.

White wedding, over the years, has been erroneously seen by many Africans (Nigerians) as a Christian practice. If truth be told, white wedding has nothing to do with Christianity. All the marriages that are recorded in the Bible were done in the trad way...from Genesis to Revelation. Even the one Jesus attended and performed His first miracle was done in the Jewish trad way. Jesus never went there as a bishop, pastor, etc to officiate the marriage. He went as every other guests.

We need to promote our culture because the whites do not marry in our own way. This reminds me of Mr Okadu and Mr Tsiba, characters in Kobina Sekyi's 'The Blinkard'.

White wedding is useless and irrelevant in our culture. It makes mockery of us.

Lets discuss this monster eating the brains of our people? Thanks.

One bottle of lacasara for u with a gala.

imagine. the church can not wed someone unless the person has done the traditional wedding.

why not merge the both together. carry ur pastor and church members to the traditional wedding and wear a white traditional dress.
after everything, come to church on sunday and give thanks.


how about WEDDING RECEPTIONS, that thing need to be scraped. i don't attend any.

compare
