This is Fayose's gift to the people that voted him into power. When PDP wins next time, they'll wonder why.

At least as bad as G Bush is i can still go home and expect to meet electricity, water and gas.

This has nothing to do with George Bush. It takes more than one bad president to completely destroy a country.
However, George Bush is trying his best. How can we criticize our leaders when the US president is even worse?

How can a president success rating be 18% ? and still retain his job?

You mean approval rating, right? Imagine having a president that only 18% of the population approves of.

@Seun, can you please list the many things that [George Bush is 'trying to do' in the US?]

WASHINGTON -- President Bush has quietly claimed the authority to disobey more than 750 laws enacted since he took office, asserting that he has the power to set aside any statute passed by Congress when it conflicts with his interpretation of the Constitution.

Among the laws Bush said he can ignore are military rules and regulations, affirmative-action provisions, requirements that Congress be told about immigration services problems, ''whistle-blower" protections for nuclear regulatory officials, and safeguards against political interference in federally funded research.

What does America represent which Bush has made a mockery of?

Democracy (basically), respect for civil liberty, progressive capitalism, common sense, a respected constitution.

George Bush is making a mockery of what the USA represents. Every day, as I'm browsing the net, I read about his attempts to do various things in the USA that even Nigerians will recognize as absolutely ridiculous and evil. And yet Americans re-elected this guy. I don't get it! Thanks to him, we can't really look up to America anymore.

I hope all those ladies who want to be actors, models and TV presenters have seen this post. Good luck!

Nobody owes you a job. If you allow an Indian to work harder than you and get a job before you, that's nobody's problem but yours. Indians are not more privileged than we are, yet they're making progress through hard work. Instead of being jealous, let us strive to learn from these hardworking people. Let us strive to work harder.

You cannot force people to move forward if they don't want to move forward.
It's best to mind one's own business and move forward in ones own journey.

If you work hard and succeed, others will be motivated to emulate you, and everyone will move forward.
If you waste your time trying to carry people along, they will only pull you back.

Those of us that are willing to work are moving forward individually. That's the only way to move forward, anyway.

This is what happens when a governor can do anything he likes;
when the government's powers are not limited by the constitution.

A girl having baby at 18yrs is a disgrace and disappointment to her family

I disagree. A girl having a baby at 18 years is just careless. The consequences are great, so no additional persecution is required. Support is what such a girl would need. If my child is pregnant at 18, that's what she'll get.

The Business Section, followed by the Programming Section. That's it.

Beating your partner is a serious crime, punishable by a few months in jail. That's all there is to it. Thanks a million.

Distribution-wise, comics are not very different from weekly magazines and newspapers, which are doing very well!

The site was down for another 6 hours today. I was asleep, and there was an unexpected software failure.
I'm still on my old server, and with the same web host, but this wasn't a network issue at all.

Peace

Can you post new threads that will revive the Toon section?

@seun you obviously do not understand the dynamics of American idol, but i will take the time to explain it to you

Awww, shaddup. Knowing how American Idol works is nothing to be proud about. We all do.

1. when a contestant gets eliminated, its not because they can't sing or perform, its because the greater public are voting for someone else and as a result, u get the least amount of votes.

Really? How shocking! I had no idea! I thought the winners were handpicked by the Holy Ghost!

The main reasons why I raised an alarm over Jordin Sparks' singing are as follows:
1) Her performance in the finals were substandard, yet the judges were all over her with praises. If indeed her performance in the final was her worst performance, why didn't Simon Cowell comment about it?

2) I'm trying to get us to engage in some good-natured banter. Let's not poison it with mean statements.

You posted a link to Jordin Spark's best performance, and it's barely as good as Melinda's average performance!
I'm not the only one who believes that Melinda is far better than Jordin, you know. Millions of Americans do.

I think it's utter silliness for an oil and gas and sunlight rich country like Nigeria to be considering ethanol.

You are advertising on her behalf, but pretending otherwise. I really really hate that. Moving to advert section.

Yes, you can play Last Chaos over a slow Internet link. It doesn't require broadband at all.

It depends on how you define equality. The thread starter is saying that men and women should be equal.

It's not a matter of 'supporting' the league. If the provides entertainment to people, they will care about it!

I could merge it with the graphics section?

i wonder what both families will say when they find out

Actually, the families don't have to find out if you don't want them to. If it's a Yoruba family, be very careful.
If your relationship is strong in every other way, this is no problem. If it is not, this issue will expose the weaknesses.

Do you respect him despite his age? Does he feel lucky to have you despite your age? If so, good luck!

I could make a lot by selling 'blood covenant insurance' to men and women who are afraid of 'blood covenants'!
