you are not the yardstick or standard. You can only speak for yourself. It’s good you know how detrimental drinking was to you. The advice should go to you alone. Since alcohol makes you think of women, stay off it. The case is not the same for everybody. I don’t even spend up to 1k on alcohol weekly compared to your 20k. Haba! Bros you were an addict, simple! Thank God you changed. But don’t advice men and women to stay off something as divine as alcohol merely because of your own personal “abusive” experience. Not everyone will abuse it like you did.

Don't mind the ex-drunkard .

This is why educated illiterates should never be in positions of influence. They add unnecessary complexities to simple situations.

Drinking and Drunkenness are two different things.
Eating and Gluttony are two different things.
Pride and Arrogance are two different things.

I would go for Law first. If my true passion is Journalism I can always go for some advanced certificates after my Law degree. There are lots of outstanding journalists out there who started out with a law degree. It's also a good fallback option if things don't work out.

What the Igbos saw in 1967 is what the oyorubas are seeing in 2019...


53yrs ago the great Igbo nation saw that the country will never work... understanding the fact that 'you can't marry or be in marriage with someone who you doesn't share the same dream, belief, ideology and vision with'


Indeed IGBOS are great.

Unfortunately the great IGBOS saw nothing before independence & betrayed Awolowo to enjoy ill-fated romance with Hausa/Fulani under Governor-General & later President Nnamdi Azikiwe until loud-mouth & chest beating led to their Northern Lords putting them back in to their rightful place.

Wow that was classic Man United of Alex Ferguson in the first half.

... Imagine no Pastor interruption and the girl says a capital NO for inside church

Pls guys, orderliness is important in the Church. Churches have specific processes in place for marriages. When it gets to that time you can bring yourself & your partner in front of God's people after official introduction & engagement between your families - definitely not for all these 'show off' proposals. Whether the Bible forbids it or not, don't put an innocent lady on the spot by proposing in the church especially during a special event with clearly listed out order of events. Unnecessary distraction. Kudos to the Pastor for using his initiative.

Congratulations!!!!

Yet one slowpoke is busy posting long betting flyers on the same thread... who did we offend in Nigeria?

Typical Yoruba man ...Run first, make mouth later

Na true... For example, see that Ogunnamdi Adekanu as he run comot for Ijebu-Umuahia come dey make mouth online after hiding for one year.

LongrichPlanet:
So long as there remains black skinned and white skinned people in this world, and so long as the white skinned man still has reasons to believe that he is somehow superior to the black skinned man because of his skin color, racism will never stop.

This is the BARE truth and any twitter or instagram action will do absolutely nothing to stop it.

It won't stop and we won't stop making it known that it's not acceptable. Thank God for the likes of Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr, Fred Hampton, Rosa Parks, Nelson Mandela etc who did not just sit down in one corner and accept the status quo just because some things won't change.

Up Nigeria! Up UNN! One Nigera!

Nigerians! What a people!

My friend Rambo o lori meji (Rambo no get two heads). Fight for your love. We dey behind you kampe.

May their souls rest in peace. Theirs was a truly bold move. A rare act of bravery to protect the reputation of OAU as one of the few Nigerian universities with minimal cult activities. Ife was never a cultism hotspot. Some of these cultists started making brazen attempts to strengthen their nodes at Ife. They were rebuffed & heroically stopped. The supreme price was paid by these rare individuals.

Omoyele Sowore (The same one) led and fought a similar battle in Unilag several years before the OAU heroes. NTA network news even dedicated a portion of their broadcast to that brutal period. Several established cultists were apprehended and brutalized. It was a bold move if you know the Unilag of that era. While the Akoka campus only witnessed sporadic cult rivalry attacks, it was the national focal point where decisions were made. It was also the safe house for wanted cultists across Nigeria.

The reprisal was brutal. Sowore was left for dead. The rest is history.

The labour of our heroes! Real men & real women!

Please use this day to ask yourself what you stand for? What have you ever boldly & physically agitated for without a promise of personal gains or tribal motivation, which is also personal?

Students with low IQ.

Migration is an expression of the human aspiration for dignity, safety and a better future...
History in its broadest aspect is a record of man's migrations from one environment to another.
Follow your heart, pursue your dreams and face your challenges like a man but respect the choice of those that are fine with where their ancestors stopped their history of migration. The choice of the migrant must also be respected. It is all a matter of choice, no right or wrong. It will work well for some and not so, for others. Life goes on!

If you think Nigeria no get law, try commit crime make dem catch you - I pity your life.

Vanity upon vanity

Thief na thief!

wirinet:
Biafra is which heritage? A 3 year (sorry two and a half year) heritage?
At least you are honest enough to admit Biafra igbo utopia, at least you are not dragging other tribes into your dream world.

Except that we conveniently forgot about the heritage until Buhari defeated Jonathan.

One stupid boy said All hail pornographic republic of biafra.

This Wike sef.

Nigeria's number one problem - Nigerians. Too many confused people and that's why politicians play them like guitar.

Jiang:
You are obviously an airhead, anymore attempt to make you understand will be a waste of my time, so just wallow in ur ignorance till you reach enlightenment

Thanks for providing a most apt definition of your miserable self - jeez! What's difficult to understand here? How exactly are you in a position to know how much Dino already spent on other needy people that very day? You need to humble yourself and find a class to attend to polish your reasoning. Think logically, not emotionally - humanity has been addressing your basic mental flaw since the days of Plato, Socrates etc. That was before the birth of Jesus Christ!

humberjade:
So are u telling me Dino has another life that is different from d ones he paints on d Social Media? The flaunting of cars and his crude ways of talking? You can't pretend to be who u are not...these politicians gives money according to how influential people are to their cause...i knw how they think generally, and Dino hasn't painted himself to be different; in fact, he seem to be in d clique of d worst of them all.

This is urgent and you can thank me later:
1. Check a dictionary for the various meanings of the word 'fallacy'.
2. Spend a few minutes reading every word on this page -https://partiallyexaminedlife.com/2011/03/16/logic-a-quick-remedial-lesson/

Jiang:
Next time understand a conversation before you jump in & force ur ideals on others. please don't ever quote me unless you have an ability to comprehend before u type. You don't need me to justify ur reasoning for turning a blind eye to people who require help, just because you have money today, doesn't mean you will still have it tomorrow. Goodbye!!

Next time pls keep your opinion to yourself instead of posting it online if you can't handle it when quoted. I never said anyone should turn blind eye to people needing help. I said you have no right to judge on how much people should give. Did the recipient complain to you? You are obviously the one with comprehension issue. If you are incapable of understanding that a gift is a gift - freely given - then you do have huge personal issues.

softboi24:
who postponed it
??

INEC

humberjade:
It is obvious d political class is purposely impoverishing the masses so that that they can return every 4 years to come buy their votes with peanut again.

If you are talking generally then I agree with you but if this is about Dino's action with this man then you are wrong as we don't have enough info on how Dino handles requests for assistance from people. This single event does not imply that Dino has not been assisting people within his own capacity. Not everything in people's real life is on social media.

Jiang:
I don't think anybody that uses Instagram will be that stingy

Another abused word in Nigeria. What is 'stingy'? How YOU spend YOUR money is YOUR business. It is not being 'stingy' when you sweat alone for your money but it doesn't take our people one second to label you stingy for not dashing out to them an amount that equals your profit for a whole day or even a week. If a gift is too small for you then you don't need the harvest of a fellow human being. Go out and sweat then feel free to dash out your profit and even your capital but do not sit in judgment over another person's financial decisions.
