What about shipping?

I strongly disagree with the idea that Lira represents my taste in women.
I just liked the track and felt frustrated when I couldn't put a name to it.

I apologize. I'm sure you were just joking.

The vice president cable case was not debunked. It was just wrongly interpreted by 234next.com
That's why instead of linking to news articles about the cable, I linked to the original cable directly.

SANDERS: Turning to the judiciary, Bankole was highly critical of its role in the electoral process. In the Speaker's view, the judiciary had over-stepped its bounds in most of the rerun gubernatorial elections, and had "tasted blood," with its new found power to influence state elections and power politics in Nigeria. Bankole claimed that he had proof that most of the judges had lined their pockets throughout the entire process of rerunning state elections, including the Supreme Court decision on President Yar'adua case in November 2008. Thus, the Speaker continued, this was why he did not support the NJC appointing the INEC chairman as he had no faith in the transparency of the judiciary.

SANDERS: {We} also did not believe that the President was unaware of the AG's corruption. Evidently not only is he aware, but also had to use the AG as the avenue to secure the Supreme Court decision, if Bankole's comments are at all true. We had also heard during the entire Supreme Court process on the Yar'Adua case (Ref d) that the judges had been heavily influenced and paid off. All and all Nigeria's electoral reform process is off to a very rocky start.

SANDERS: Given that Bankole opened the door, by implication, on the Attorney General, the Ambassador highlighted the other main USG concern: that not much progress had been made on democracy and transparency in government. The Speaker agreed. He said that the President had wanted to do a lot of things but had inherited a structure of patronage that he has thus far been unable to overcome. This included having to keep certain ministers who were less than transparent, including one "more commonly referred to by the position's initials," he said pointedly, seemingly to ensure that it was not missed that he was referring to the A.G. or Attorney General. Taking the queue and implication on board, the Ambassador asked what this particular Minister had on the President. Bankole said without hesitation he was the money conduit from Ibori to the judiciary as regards to the President's Supreme Court case. So for the moment, he is untouchable, the Speaker stated, until such time as a way can be found to slowly move him out, which for now seems unlikely. The Ambassador said that despite this, Yar'Adua is still the President and still has presidential prerogative which he could use. Bankole simply said Nigeria does not work like this.

Time2Think:
slam the MOFOs in jail and throw the key away. Thats what Buhari will do.

You're a not-so-smart person if you think that's the correct thing for a government to do. 
Jonathan can seek redress through the legal system or settle out of court, since he's not a dictator.

You didn't present your points in the right way to convince these non-thinking people.

@ potof_soup,
You lie, it is not 90% but more than 95% of Nairalanders will not vote in 2011 elections. They only know how to post useless comments and proffer unrealistic solutions. No sensible and real Nigerian politician will take Nairaland forum serious. The few realistic and civilised nairalanders are always at a loss about the trend in this forum.
Insults, name calling, thread diversion, thread derailing, negative comments, plain stupidity, ethnic bigoted threads just to mention a few are the order of the day.
This is a forum filled up with some useless internet warriors who sdid not even register talkless of voting. I care less about negative replies, but as the saying goes "Nigerians always hate the truth with a passion"
I hope many Nairalanders wake up and change their ways, it is a pity that no notable Nigerians take nairaland seriously, people like Wole Soyinka and co. ought to be important figures in this forum. I pray Seun shpuld wake up one day and clean up nairaland. maybe he is been deceived by the fake traffic he gets (People using multiple usernames). If he refuses to wake up, one day soon a real alterntive will come and wipe out his hardwork of many years.
SEUN, CLEAN UP NAIRALAND
SEUN, CLEAN UP NAIRALAND
SEUN, CLEAN UP NAIRALAND
SEUN, CLEAN UP NAIRALAND

I rest my case for now. (I will not bother to answer any useless reply to my post).

Clean it in what way?

Get another Vet doctor fast. If he cant tell you what's wrong with the dog then your dog is going to die.

What Siasia is trying to say is that Yakubu, as bad as he was, is still one of the best striker we have in our team.  So our best bet is not to exclude him but to pray for his deliverance from the evil spirits holding him back.  If we leave him out of the team for sentimental reasons, what will we do when the other players are unable to score?

He's right. The Internet is not representative of Nigeria. Many of those voting in online polls are not even based in Nigeria, so the average online voter tends to be less conservative than the average voter in Nigeria.

medjai:
Lol. How could he have shown 36 red cards when there are 22 players in a match

Did you even read the article? He sent off players, substitutes, and technical staff!

Yeah, it's tending towards OCD.  If you love him you'll help him get a proper diagnosis and maybe seek help, because OCD isolates the sufferers from people who can's stand the behaviour.

By the way I am not African American.

Then maybe you should let the offended African Americans speak for themselves?

Hehe. Well his country has been divided as he advised.

It's sad that people take such pleasure in the death of others.

Dude, 150k?

There are drugs she can take to stop her menstruation. Ask a gynaecologist.

Why must the financially stable man be already married?

Best striker ever, in my opinion too.

She was a perfect physical specimen b4. Oh well.

Ok, this seems to be a very common request, so I'll look into it. Thanks!
