It seems that they are calling for President Obasanjo's support as the head of the AU, not to Nigeria as a country.

For those of us who don't know who Suge Knight is ( )

Marion "Suge" (pronounced like "sug[ar]" Knight (born April 19, 1965, in Compton, California) is an entrepreneur in the hip hop music industry and co-founder of Death Row Records with Dr. Dre. The record label rose to dominate the charts after Dr. Dre's breakthrough success The Chronic in 1992.

Latest news on Suge Knight:

Knight was attending a Kanye West-hosted VIP party at a Miami Beach club, in anticipation of Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards, when an unknown assailant shot him in the leg. According to Associated Press, the 40-year-old mogul was quickly taken to hospital in good condition (well, except for the whole "being shot" thing), with doctors working to remove the bullet and repair a broken bone.

Ok, so back to the discussion!

Yes, she's learned the medical and evasive skills of Tsunade and she has that power punch that kills with one blow!

Welcome to the Nairaland Forum! Best wishes to you and your loved ones!

Who is this 'Rochas' guy you keep posting about?

I have no idea what you're talking about angela k. Sorry .

Niger stands for the River Niger.

My own name suggestion is Abujaland since that's where the seat of power now lies!

They should work hard. They make too much!

Mine, too, has been seized on the same suspicion of fraud and they are not responding to attempts to contact them.

Crude Oil is the most likely glue that holds Nigeria together.

Their postal address - Ringo Telecommunications Limited, P.M.B. 21791, Ikeja - is the closest I can find.

The NUC site isn't particularly bad despite being rather unimpressive. I've seen many worse sites.

If God, through the Sharia, has ordered Muslims to cut hands and legs of thieves and stone adulterers, who are you to suggest that they should restrict their punishments to 3 months solitary confinement?

We really shouldn't look down on those we're calling "atutupoyoyo" because it's not their doing (or is it?)

You may right that average students might have difficulties with the English Language, but could this simply be because of their parent don't speak English to them at home? I mean, the situation for most Nigerian students is this:
- They (mostly) write English at school.
- They speak their local languages at home.

The difficulty that Nigerians have with English could be because:
- They don't read English books outside school. At all. Not even Harry Potter.
- They don't speak English outside school; instead they speak pidgin "English".
- Their teacher's don't really understand English either. For the same reasons.
(yes, this includes the English teachers!)

These are problems that can be solved in one generation, if we bring up the new generation to write and speak in English.

@nferyn: Can you link to the research papers that support your claim?

I have often wondered why so many of us - Christians, Muslims, even Traditionalists and people of other faiths - steadfastly believe that God is real even though it seems that there's not much clear evidence to support this belief.

- How are you able to believe in someone you've not seen?
- How are you so sure that God is just, when the world is so unjust?
- How do you know he created the world, when you were not there?
- How do you know your religion is right, when all the others claim to be right?
- How come some are willing to die to get to a heavenly city no one has seen?
- In summary, how do you know that your God is real?

Cactus,

New categories are created based on user demand. If we notice that a lot of people are posting about a particular topic, then we'll create a special category for that topic!

Seun.

Yes, I do. But once they decide to leave, there is nothing I can do to bring them back. In the past I used to make efforts to bring people back, but after my nasty experiences with Trae and Soul, I realized that once a member is not happy the best course of action is to look for new members to fill his shoes.

As long as we're constantly reaching out to new members, it is very hard for the forum to die. Those who decide to leave are only isolating themselves for nothing!
