Ajewealth123:U see that's problem d with our women. How can a woman do this to her husband.... What will she expect? Until our wives learn to be submissive and honour their husbands things like this will keep happening. The problem with our women these days is that they are not submissive like our mothers and they are not supportive like the white women and the indian women on zee world they try to emulate. |
Lamba 3.. Final answer |
Animals in uniform in a zoo. Any day any illiterate person try to intimidate me all because he is wearing a uniform dats the day I will die. All this is happening simply because most of us are cowards. Is there a different law for military people and civilians? Are we all going to join the military to feel safe from touts and rascals like this naval rating? How can u beat up a man for doing his job. They do this cos they know nothing will happen to them. Nonsense. |
TheGrandMaster:Oh...sorry, based in Abuja. Ask around u should get someone. Note: it must be star SDS, don't don't any excuse that they are the same. |
Birds kwa...as in umu nnunu |
TheGrandMaster:Location? |

Will you issue C of O to buyers? |
The one that annoys me most is those drivers that will just be crawling on the speed lane....flash your lights at them till daybreak they won't give way. |
Someone that has three monikers on this forum? Is that not a red flag? Sometimes I wonder what you guys learn in school these days. He scammed you of 10k, u still sent him another 2k? Haba! Why na. |
Hmmm |
Its a scam.....Tell him to be careful cos they might end up using his head for rituals. |
femionasan:Take it for a scan.....while at it I hope u didn't overfill d engine. Too much oil is a bigger problem for engines than less oil. Maybe its a head gasket issue. Is ur coolant level always dropping? Do this test tomorrow. While the engine must have warmed up and running, remove ur dipstick with some oil on it drop the oil on the part of the exhaust u can see from the engine bay. The oil will burn(smoke): if there is water mixed with the oil it will sizzle. Goodluck. |
femionasan:Have u taken d car for a scan?... What are the codes? What is the color of the smoke? I don't think u need another engine. |
Nigerian police again I heard they once arrested a goat and detained it for armed robbery. |
HardMirror:It depends from d angle u are looking at it. I know we are d most intelligent multi celled organism to ever roam the surface of the earth. If our intelligence has helped us or not is a subject of debate. People lived longer in times past without industrial and technological breakthroughs than they do today. |
cruchenuti:Don't mind her, some members just create threads to keep us busy. |
HardMirror:In the Bible you will find that everything u see or do in this world is vanity, null and void. You will know that u are only a visitor here; nothing you do or achieve will bring everlasting happiness to you. |
Divorce ur husband and marry ur ex simple. |
The bible has all the answers to ur questions. |
No comment |
kayo80:From the video you can hear the woman saying she has warned him severally to leave other peoples wife and focus on his own wife. Maybe the man has been pestering her for sex for long and she just have to tell her husband.......and this happened. |
So they kill snakes too in Amalika...wow. Where are the nairaland forest guards. |
infogenius:The wife didn't appear cos it was a set up between d wife and her husband. The woman lured d randy friend into her bed, removed his cloths and was ready for action; she then called her husband. |
MrBrownJay1:Choi, some men are really eating shit |
fuckingAyaya:How you want carry this one enter room.....you blind? The girl ugly die |
Why him go cut people ticket? All of us know say home win/draw and under 2.5 dey enter for naija league well well. |
hapheeyxz:You are welcome |
That pus*y must have a high mileage considering the way it looks I think its retiring well. |
hapheeyxz:If you are buying a used car have it in mind that you will have to fix some things to ur taste, I don't know how much u know about Benz. If its showing ESP..... It can be corrected by a simple alignment or a more expensive repair which will involve replacing the ESP module, steering angle sensor, lateral acceleration sensor, e.t.c Same with ABS,BAS and SRS. A simple fault like a burnt bulb will also display on the cluster as a fault. Check that the radiator fan is not always on and on high speed whenever the engine is running..... This repair can involve changing the ECU(brainbox) or as simple as replacing a burnt fuse. For me once I like a car, I buy it. I don't mind even if its towed. Goodluck. |
Before August 9, 1965, the Singaporeans were seen as an irritation in Malaysia. Then Singapore was one of the 14 states of Malaysia. Singaporeans were viewed as arrogant, stubborn, and domineering. While the United Malays National Organisation wanted affirmative action or “quota system” for the Malays, the People's Action Party of the Singaporeans insisted that the best thing for the country was a merit-based policy on all issues, so as to bring out the best in the nation and create a spirit of excellence. This constant disagreements and tensions resulted in racial riots. It got to a point, the Malays could take it no more. So on August 9, 1965 they convened the parliament, with no Singaporean parliamentarian present. At that sitting, the legislators voted unanimously (126 - 0) to expel Singapore from Malaysia. When the Singaporeans heard that they had been expelled from the nation, at first they were devastated. But they took their fate in the hands and started building a new nation. And indeed, by applying merit and the pursuit of excellence, Singaporeans built a country that moved from Third World to First World in record time, overtaking Malaysia in all ramifications. Interestingly, despite this sad way of parting, Malaysia and Singapore have remained good neighbours. In spite of the success Singapore has recorded, it has not made Malaysia not to record its own success. There are many similarities between the story of Singapore and Malaysia and Igbo and Nigeria. The Igbo are not happy with the quota system policy used in the admission into federal schools and federal positions. They want competitiveness in every sector, which will lead to the best being selected, for the sake of excellence. The Igbo are seen as arrogant, noisy, domineering, greedy, over-ambitious, to mention but a few. Many Nigerians see them as irritants. They get killed frequently, especially in the North, at the least misunderstanding. Sometimes the cause of the provocation is someone from Denmark, Cameroon or another part of Nigeria. There are many Nigerians who will easily tell you: “We will never allow an Igbo person to rule Nigeria.” There are many who believe that the problem of Nigeria is from the Igbo, and that once the Igbo are done away with, Nigeria’s problems will disappear. Given this scenario, the Igbo want a true federal system that will make Nigeria look like what it was before 1966, with each state or region taking charge of most of its affairs and moving at its own pace. Sadly, anytime it mentions restructuring or true federalism, there are forces that resist it vehemently and insist that such will not be allowed. Ironically, despite this view by many Nigerians about the Igbo, anytime any person or group from Igbo land asks that the Igbo be allowed to leave Nigeria to form their own country, the resistance from most Nigerians is fierce. This reaction creates a contradiction. If the Igbo are irritants and troublemakers, why not expel them from Nigeria the way Singaporeans were expelled from Malaysia? But if you see them as valuable and believe they must be part of the Nigerian state, why not treat them as equal partners in the union? What does Nigeria really want from the Igbo? Recently news broke that the Department of State Services embarked on a recruitment exercise, with 165 recruited from the North-west. The report said that 51 people were recruited from Katsina State alone, the home state of President Muhammadu Buhari and the Director General of Department of State Security, Mr Lawal Daura, while the number of people recruited from the five states of the South-east was 44 and the number recruited from the six states of the South-south was 42. Compare that with the academic performance of the different zones of Nigeria. The Unified Tertiary Matriculation Education of 2016 produced the following number of applicants from the six zones: South-east (five states) = 335,883; South-West (six states) = 320,691; South-south (six states) = (299,632); North-central (six states plus the FCT) = 259,846; North-west (seven states) = 163,240; North-east (six states) = 96,220; The six states that produced the highest number of candidates were: 1. Imo – 104,383 2. Delta – 78,854 3. Anambra – 77,694 4. Osun – 72,752 5. Oyo – 72,298 6. Enugu – 69,381 The six states that produced the least number of candidates were: 31. Adamawa – 15,615 32. Jigawa – 12,664 33. Yobe – 10,045 34. Sokoto – 10,006 35. Kebbi – 8,947 36. Zamfara – 5,295 The states that were given a minimum of 130 cut-off mark out of 200 in the 2013 examination into the Unity Schools were: Anambra – Male (139) Female (139) Imo – Male (138) Female (138) Enugu – Male (134) Female (134) Lagos – Male (133) Female (133) Delta – Male (131) Female (131) Ogun – Male (131) Female (131) Abia – Male (130) Female (130) For the same examination, the states that were given cut-off marks of less than 50 were: Borno – Male (45) Female (45) Jigawa – Male (44) Female (44) Bauchi – Male (35) Female (35) Kebbi – Male (9) Female (20) Sokoto – Male (9) Female (13) Taraba – Male (3) Female (11) Yobe – Male (2) Female (27) Zamfara – Male (4) Female (2) The six states that scored above 50 percent in the 2015 West African Senior School Certificate of Education were: Abia (63.94%), Anambra (61.18%), Edo (61.05%), Rivers (55.69%), and Imo (52.49%). The states that scored below 13 percent in the same examination were: Kebbi (12.08%), Katsina (10.81%), Gombe (7.41%), Jigawa (6.37%), Zamfara (6.23%), Yobe (4.37%). These are verifiable results that have remained virtually the same for decades. And they give an idea of the number of candidates that are involved in education from each state and zone as well as their academic performance. The point of this essay is not that it is only the Igbo that excel in many sectors. Other ethnic groups, especially from the South, also excel. But the focus of this essay is the Igbo. From the attitude of other ethnic groups, it seems that they are comfortable with the status quo. If not, they should not be focusing on the Igbo as their problem. The call for restructuring of the country has been promoted as the solution to Nigeria’s problem. However, there are strong forces that are hell-bent on ensuring that restructuring of the country never succeeds. They have been erroneously schooled that restructuring will impoverish them. The danger in this hard line against restructuring is that if restructuring fails, the alternative may not be palatable. Nigeria has moved in a self-destructive path for long. Nigeria has been wallowing in retrogression for long, because some stakeholders are afraid that pulling it out and setting it on the path of progress will cost them their feeding bottle. But nothing lasts forever. Two weeks ago, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, met his seemingly impossible bail conditions within 48 hours. When the bail conditions were made public, the belief of many was that no serving Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria would want to associate with him. But the South-east caucus of the Senate met and quickly chose one of them to stand bail for him. All other conditions were also swiftly met. If those conditions were given in December 2015, no Nigerian Senator would have wanted to be associated with Kanu. Since his coming into office, Buhari has continued to display a type of croynism and prebendalism that have never been witnessed in Nigeria. And the worst beneficiaries of these are the Igbo. He has been making it clear by his words and actions that the North and the Igbo are not equal partners in the Nigerian project. He has been distributing Nigerian resources and appointments to his kinsmen and region as if they are his personal property. This brazen nepotism has made even the fiercest Igbo critics of Kanu’s call for secession to develop sympathies. |
