Christianity EtcRe: Churches, Mosques To Report Their Financial Transactions From January by skyfall: 3:59pm On Nov 26, 2012
Good news. The first step on the road to taxing these places of worship. It's not only churches though. Groups like NASFAT also make a lot of money.

Gov Fashola, wink-wink. I know this news gladdens your heart. But seriously govt will make a hell (pun intended) of money from these places of worship.

I chose my words carefully so I don't offend you unnecessarily since I have nothing against you. I'm just advising people generally. And for you, you don't need to create fake posts just to attract customers. Just do clean business and your customers will advertise freely for you.

The post by ALAKASUNDAY above was also written by you. This is my profession and i know what I'm talking about. Don't even start with me.

You also need to understand the meaning of "freedom of expression." I have the right to criticize anybody I so wish, including the "men of God" in our society. It's a fundamental human right.

Muhahaha very funny.

In case you don't speak Yoruba, it means "oh fruit, turn to sugar, the prince wants to eat you."

Guess it's a way of psyching themselves hoping it'll be a sweet one. Agbalumo is very nice if it's sweet, otherwise e go slap u tire. LOL

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Is The Most Fraudulent Country In Africa, KPMG Report Says by skyfall: 9:33pm On Nov 24, 2012
ROSSIKE: A big house has many children - Some will be corrupt, some will be upright, some will be mad, some will be sane, some will be thieves, some will be saints. It's the sign of a great household.

The foreigners churning out these negative 'studies' and 'surveys' will never tell you the OTHER facts readily observable when 'surveying' the nation.

For even if for argument's sake Nigeria is ''the most fraudulent nation in Africa'', it ALSO is

The nation with the highest number of university educated professionals in Africa.

The nation in Africa with the continent's largest middle class.

The nation with the most accomplished professionals in industry, science, sports and commerce on the continent.

The nation with the highest internet connectivity, and largest internet community in Africa.

The nation with Africa's No 1 Entertainment Industry, leading the continent unchallenged, in Film and Music.

The Number 1 Literary nation in Africa, producing a steady stream of world class authors, including the first black winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature.

Africa's Number 1 Peacekeeping nation, with the most feared soldiers on the continent.

The foremost banking nation on the continent, exporting her first class financial services to several countries across the continent.

The only African nation with an indigenous vehicle manufacturing industry (INNOSON Motors)

The largest recipient of Foreign Direct Investment in Africa.

A nation that is among the ten fastest growing economies in the world with annual GDP growing at an unprecedented 7.2% per annum, the bulk of growth occurring in the non-oil sector - telecoms, banking, agriculture, manufacturing et al.

So we are No 1 in Africa in a GREAT MANY THINGS.
Keep deluding yourself.
PoliticsRe: Nigeria Is The Most Fraudulent Country In Africa, KPMG Report Says by skyfall: 1:10pm On Nov 24, 2012
Well we all know it's the truth. Nigeria is a hopeless country of silly citizens being led by criminals. The only thing Nigerians do is go to their churches & mosques and pray hopelessly all-day.

BusinessRe: Nigeria’s Oil Production Crashes Below 1.5 M Barrels Per Day by skyfall: 6:37pm On Nov 23, 2012
kutchs: I see so much stupidity here.
people asking how it affects them.
When the country is no longer able to fund its budget, people will be owed salaries, workers will be retrenched and even the poverty and hunger in the country will go to an alltime high.
It makes no sense wishing evil for ur country when ur life and survival depends on the oil proceeds.
And you the un-stu.pid one don't know that this will wake up the docile masses from their slumber, and make govt positions unattractive to these criminals in power?

It will affect me but I wish the oil dries up or at least production grinds to a halt for 6months.

PoliticsRe: Jail Is Too Good For Nigerian Pastors by skyfall: 8:48pm On Nov 22, 2012
For years, I've been looking for the difference between Nigerian pastors and Yahoo! Boys but found nothing.

Their Modus Operandi is the same. Play on your victim's emotion, scam them of their valuables while promising them an imaginary reward. Repeat above.

I'm sure the most gullible people in the world would be found among Nigerian Pentecostal churchgoers. It beats me how they manage to remain dumb for so long.
Car TalkA Useful Link For Tracking Down Most Cars' Manuals by skyfall(op): 6:36pm On Nov 22, 2012
I found this really useful and I think you may too. Having your car's manual provides a reference point while diagnosing problems, and helps in maximizing the full features of your car. Most of them are free, save for a few stingy manufacturers.

Arsenate: I'm going to have my children here in Naija and they'd surely have a good life. Most importantly, I'd teach them how to be proud of their identity so they don't run to another mans land and turn around and insult their home without shame. Y'all can Sceam all u like or publish whatever crap research, nothing's gonna change that.
While I respect your opinion, this is just sentiment. The earlier we admit that Nigeria is completely messed up, the better for us. Did u hear FRSC say that we have the second worst roads in the whole world?

What's life expectancy in Nigeria? 40-something o. Your kids will only be proud of their identity if they are lucky to grow old enough to have one. And survival in Nigeria is not about being rich at all. I hope you know that.

Nigerians and their usual denial. Would you have said the same if we were No 10?

Nobody needs to tell an average Nigerian that this country is hell. And yes, Pakistan may actually fare better than Nigeria economically.

Car TalkRe: How Do I Use The Auxillary Gear Of Toyota Prado Manual 2006 by skyfall: 9:39pm On Nov 21, 2012
I'm sorry but isn't your company putting too much of the car's responsibility on you? When do you have time to think of the job itself? I wouldn't like that. And I'd expect a company to have a driver and specific service center. But then, yours may be different.
Car TalkRe: Topping Radiator With Water Everyday!! Is It Normal by skyfall: 7:23pm On Nov 21, 2012
@OP

Sorry I really sympathize with you. You seem not to know much about cars, but we obviously learn everyday. After all the professional responses though, you still sound confused.

The 1st thing to do is NEVER go back to that mechanic. You're just an easy paycheck to him.

2ndly, look for a qualified auto workshop where the car will be properly diagnosed.

Tell us where you live (Lagos?). Are you on the Island or mainland? I know a very good workshop in Ajah if you live around there. There's also a thread on this site which lists good & modern auto workshops.
PoliticsRe: CAN Under Oritsejafor Is Religious Arm Of PDP — CPC by skyfall: 6:29pm On Nov 20, 2012
No point wasting time on this very simple topic.

PDP=Boko Haram

All the politicians linked to BH are PDP - Senator, ex-Governor, even up to the level of the VP Sambo. Do you remember the Kaduna gun-runner who was a facilitator for Sambo, then freed by this evil govt?. They're even using BH to fight ANPP in Borno.

Jonathan's govt has looked for the minutest link between Buhari/CPC & BH but failed. Rather, the former NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER confirmed that BH is PDP.

As for Oritsejafor, that one is just a gangster pastor being followed around by some gullible christians in the name of CAN chairman.

If you still need someone to explain what the father meant by embarrassment in this context, you either have a low IQ or you're one of those categories of pastors who effectively steal from gullible congregations for their own selfish interests. The Yahoo pastors.
IslamRe: Advice For The Muslim Sisters Before You Say I Do by skyfall:
@OP

Learn to punctuate and space your write-up next time.

A lot of those ideologies are not very practical even for a muslim, especially in a multi-religious society like Nigeria. While it works for some, there's a high chance that you'll end up marrying someone who is "acceptable" from a religious point of view but whom you don't really love & are happy with. You'll likely still end up having extra-marital affairs. This is the reality of many marriages today.

Marrying someone for the sake of God or religion is a joke. Why not stay single for God then? I advise people to marry people they love and are comfortable with. Our obsession with religion is actually destroying us. The world is more complex today than it was 2000 yrs ago.
