The Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party in Sharubutu Ward of Bachit District of Riyom Local Government Area, Plateau State, John Baren, along with his wife and child, were murdered on Thursday at Gwarim in Rim village by gunmen suspected to be Fulani herdsmen.

Witnesses disclosed that the Barens were returning from a burial of a relation in Riyom town when the assailants ambushed and shot them.

A lawmaker representing Riyom Constituency in the state House of Assembly, Daniel Dem, w[b]ho confirmed the incident, condemned it[/b] and called on the Special Task Force (STF) to step up security and bring the culprits to book.

The lawmaker described Baren as a hard worker and a committed party leader.

Thats all i hear about this so called leaders when people get attacked and killed. condemned it. Action freaking speaks louder than words. Get your stupid act together and take hold of your state

WhyAWhy: [size=18pt]There are many men on this forum who are 1 cent worth of a man. I wonder what you think a man is.

Possibilities
1. His wife is cooking in the kitchen while he needs to do a quick laundry. Kitchen environment is not too good for a baby's respiratory health
2. His wife has gone to the market/is ill and he wants to save her from the trouble of carrying the baby around.

infact, you people should get a life! Sometimes i feel ashamed of being a man hearing the way some men think. What's wrong in this for crying out loud?!![/size]
[size=14pt]It takes more than having a pendulum to be called a man!!![/size]

You cant blame them.The average Nigerian Man is proud. Always pushing household jobs and babies stuff to his wife. Its not unusual for people to diss the guy.You see it everywhere. Go to stores around and you see the wife carrying heavy load and the man just keeps strolling beside her. When a man tries to help his wife like the man in the pic is doing, they insult him and maybe would say his wife is controlling him.

This write-up on front page? really? really?

esere826: My unnamed Uni was very good. Infact excellent in knowledge transfer.. but that was not the perception of recruiters u see.


''''we probably go to unis to be with other humans, network and for excellent job prospect (better than the previous ones).

I studied at the university of Portsmouth which is currently number 78. 60% of guys and girls i know have all gotten jobs in our respective fields. Thats from a school which is currently number 78. You read about the girl from Birmingham University ranked number 22 that was not able to get a job.She blames the government for not getting a job. School like Cambridge , London school of economics , oxford and imperial college are on a different league.Yes, we know but that does not guarantee you a job.I know lots of people always complain "i wish i went to a better school,maybe i would have gotten a job" .The main reason some people don't get jobs is their CV. not schools. I don't think most organization care about what school you went to. It's what you can do on the job and you have to prove that during interviews.

esere826: And come to think of it, why do people go on to further studies in Unis? afterall, some of us can actually self study to gain any knowledge we like.. just buy books and access to Athens and HBR. Much cheaper than the unis

''''we probably go to unis to be with other humans, network and for excellent job prospect (better than the previous ones).

That Life. Besides in UK, some Companies don't care about degrees. I remember going for interview and i was sitting down with high school students who never went to universities but did apprenticeship or gathered work experience. I went there thinking with my masters,i will beat this guys. Guess what? One of the high school boys got the job. It made me think back again to see where i went wrong.Degree are just papers if you do not know what you are preparing yourself to face in the real world. Thats what i learn. went back and i started doing self study and learning about my field in the real world. That was when i got a job. Seriously i would tell you. Its not about degree or where you got your degree, its about how you can persuade recruiters and employers that you are good for the job.Once you get a job in your field. with your degree and experience, you can always move to top organizations.

esere826: True talk. No do like me oooo. Penny wise pound foolish

Can you explain? Just curious as to know why you believe your school was not good enough?

queensmith: I really don't know how else to put it?

Me either, i just remembered you graduated from one of the top 5 universities in UK.

Sagamite: Queensmith said she has a medical degree from a UK Top 5 university but yet argues that:

a) Obese women have equal chance of attracting mates as slim women.

b) Men that are 10 years older than their partners are perverts but being gay is no

queensmith: University in the UK is expensive, make the most of your cash by going to a decent one. That is all I'm saying, in the midst of educated individuals one shouldn't have to defend advising someone to attend Warwick . . . . . . .

what you mean by the highlighted sentence?

queensmith: Abeg please go, there are many Nigeria's there to keep you company. The bigger boys and girls are in the business school. Plus I'm tired of brainy Nigerian's wasting their talents in rubbish uni's. It's not much more than the other Unis. Scrape together the cash and go there! bless xx

What you mean by rubbish UNI'S? Even a college degree holder competes with graduates from top universities for jobs.

saxywale:
Is it not right that they tell the truth about the difficulties they experience? The truth is that racism still exist in academics, sport, corporate world e.t.c and people of color have to work sometimes as twice as hard as their white peers to gain recognition.

Everybody goes through difficulties in Life. It does not help the young black generation if the present successful blacks always go with the phrases "i was discriminated against". There are other difficulties people go through in Life. but people prefer to say the ones that make them heard and it affects the young generations. Ask most young drug dealers why they got into gangs and crime. They will say the system let them down. The system never let them down. I dont belive the system failed most of this kids. Their parents did and the media who keep showing them a few successful black men with stories that they were discriminated against through to success.

Sagamite: Kai!

E no go better for IBB and Abasha!

May God make them rot in the hottest part of hellfire.

They have finished our youths' future.

Kai!

. I get what you mean

itsmayiela: Good. Amerika and d world, una no dey announce dis kain tin 4 cnn and bbc or aljazeera ooooh......but if na bomb blast by farouk lawal, una go dey repeat am as breaking news for many weeks. Nobody hears wat happens in d pot, its only wat happens in the mortar they hear

I don't understand what you saying. So they should announce that a black man has finally achieved a grade which other races have been achieving for a long time?

armyofone: queensmith, you are right. it is hard to be black in the USA. i'm so proud of this guy and wish him the best.
it sadden me when those that clean the malls, schools, hospitals etc are mostly black.
may he continue to be strong to face the challenges ahead.

Just curious with the bold sentence. How is it hard to be black in USA?

Emmy9ite: This guy reminds me of Ben Carson.... Ben is believed to be the best neurosurgeon in d world,Ben works at John Hopkins hospital and dz guy finished from the university.....Ben graduated from Yale university and d guy just got admitted into Yale,Ben graduated as d best student same as Emmanuel...Ben was also descriminated by d whites same with dz nigerian....Am proud of u namesake,am going 2 be greater..(am also going in for medicine)...

The highlighted sentence you wrote is what i feel is wrong with the Black race. Every time they succeed, they always make reference to the fact that they face discrimination. I dont think this is a good lesson for young black kids because most of them would think of the negativity a black man faces to being successful and will wonder if they can go through it. To me, it makes blacks inferior with that statement but of course, almost every black successful person says that

[quote author=Find Out!]lol... Yeah, u r right, but remember that d colour of his skin is still BLACK (or brown.lol), & that can never be separated from him. Obama being described as the first BLACK president of the US isnt an insult, same as the description of this kid's achievement here. We are not all the same, but then, there is(should be) unity in diversity bro.[/quote]I understand what you are saying but its like saying to black kids."Look, a black man has finally achieved what other races has been doing over the years".How will that kid feel? he going to be thinking that just one out of millions that has struggled to make it.And you read all the stories of how he was brought up in a tough neighborhood and stuff. Thats is not helping matters. How many white successful folks talk about trials and tribulation they went through to succeed. But a black man is always quick to talk about how he was raised in the hood and how he could not eat three square meals. Thats how i think it sounds. Its sad when you hear black successful people who come out with sad stories of their past does not help the future kids in my own opinion. It makes the kids feel "well he got lucky".

queensmith: I'm skeptical about celebrations like these, because it encourages racism. Is the fact that he's black making the grade special? Why? do black people have less academic capabilities than whites? Are we still in the stone ages? Do we know the first white?


Well done to him anyways I know neuroscience is a b*tch. He did very well

I was about to say the same thing? Why use 1st black man?Does that mean after all this years , a black man finally achieved. you meant to celebrate the guy as an individual,not by the color of his skin.

2good: You cannot sue PHCN. It is illegal to have any structure below a high tension wire. The market women already committed a crime trading under live current so how do you sue PHCN for such? In Lagos houses are build indiscriminably under high tension wire and the occupant of such houses knows the consequence of their action yet they hope nothing bad will happen either in Jesus name or Insha Allah. I am not trying to exonerate PHCN but for this very case, you cannot sue PHCN.

Its PHCN responsibility to ensure such places was never used for business activities in the first place. It was their job to either fine or arrest people who use such places.

Well PHCN cant be fined with all the stupid cables they have kept all over the country. they will be bankrupt if such policies hold.

Why do we treat the foreigners who are exploiting us better than our own people? No wonder why everyone in the world treats us badly. We dn't even treat ourselves well!!

Your Pictures just not justify your post.

Those guys being rough handled might be criminals or people trying to start a riot (from what i can observed from the pic)

The other pictures is just an oil rig worker who took pictures with Nigerians. (how is that a problem)
and for the police who held umbrella, it's very possible he has paid his oga to use the police officer as errand boy.
The thing the police officers are doing is the same thing they will do to any politicians or anyone that drops money for them

Blame corruption not this police officers. your post has nothing to do with the pictures at all

computer science will definitively teach you programming while Engineering might go into Networking

Well in Nigerian Universities, i really dont know what they would teach you

Go there and make sure its a public place.(Kidnappers) and make sure you leave once they ask for money.

SMH at the posters's ignorance. so once you successful in the entertainment industry, you are Illuminati.

Just like saying every successful young guy in Nigeria is a yahoo boy

[quote author=sweet_jummie]Av been dating dis guy for like a year now, and he says he loves me and dat he also intends to marry me,but the problem with my bf is dat his a serious womanizer,I was able to detect dat his cheating on me via facebook,I av my bf's fb password which he does not know abut,so I check his msgs on fb 4rm time to time, and d kind of msgs av seen on his facebook inbox is so so terrible,his cheating on me with 3 different girls,b4 we started dating,I also heard 4rm a frd dat he has slept wit 2 girls in my dept in d past,pls house wat can I do,pls I need ur advise[/quote]First of all, i think you should be ashamed of yourself. You already said he is cheating on you with three different women. Yet you came to nairaland to ask for advise. I mean seriously? are you for real?

Its girls like you that makes men walk all over you. Are you scared you wont find another man or what stops you from leaving him? He has no respect for you. come on.

queensmith: Right, for political sensitivity all those behaving a certain way are not yoruba, but 99% of yoruba's behave a certain way based on observation. #thatisall

Rubbish talk

DailyNews: Email me, I will give you a tip of the ice berg on what you are asking for, sorry such secret cannot be divulged in a public forum where lots of eyes are peeping like torch...lolz....my email is: dailyy.newss@gmail.com pls title it: about business ideas, d guy from nairaland. Cheers!

Yea Right

Obasemo: Hi Guys, good day. I have been out of the country for almost 2 yrs, I am planning to return back and invest on a business. I have been making some research but I think I should also share it with you guys on here. Before I travel out of the country, I noticed that most people out there are only after what they wanna benefit from you. I have a good capital to invest if there's any reliable company I can deal with. Your opinion will be highly appreciate.

Thanks guys

Dont know which field you are on but i have always though of security. installing security cameras which stored data to an offsite location. i think that business will boom soon in Nigeria. well if electricity is stable sha

marvelck: Can a woman prevent her husband from cheating on her by being faithful, loving and caring. And also by dressing and looking sweet and sexy all the time.Can all of this keep her man away from other girls. Cos nowadays, most married women because of the roving eyes of their men, now wear all sort of sexy clothes, bum shorts, trousers, skirts, leggings and undies everyday just to keep their husbands at bay/home, and away from the snatching arms of other girls. But tell me, how can they stop the chicken from crossing the road? How can they stop their men from resisting or falling for the scheming charm of other girls/women. Cos some men cant just stop chasing girls no matter how beautiful, faithful, sexy or loving their wives are. there was one I used to know in Lagos, who had a very beautiful, faithful, loving and industrious wife. His wife was an head stunner, whom many were ready to give anything to have. but he wasn't grateful for what he had. despite having such a sweet wife and a lovely family, this man was also a chronic womanizer. who later fathered a child with another woman outside. You can imagine. And according to a lady, you can't change or stop a man from cheating on you no matter what you do, cos its in their DNA. tell me, is it true?

Yes

Temistatics 007: who told you that rubbish you are saying,i own and use a tablet pc,its hdd is 400GB,its ram is 4gb and with amazing processing power.

Congratulations.

Are you saying your tablet PC can run applications faster than laptops?

Tajsagay: My work collegue jst broke up with her very rich bf. I was absolutely shoked coz I know he was really caring, doesn't smoke nor drink. Very devout catholic and also very very rich. I asked her, babe wetin happen? My mind 1st went to, "ok he's cheating, or maybe is a same sex kinda guy". She replied dat she decided to end it coz.....wait for it, he's too soft. She went futher to explain that when they argue, he's always quick to apologise even when she's out of line. I was like WTF. So Ladies, is that wat u really want? Cos am confused right now!

Its not the first time i have heard of this. The girl obviously prefer someone who will talk down on her and maybe rough her up so she can cry and complain that men are bad. Then after she gets married to the bad guy which they life and the guy mistreats them, they start looking back at their mistake

Amya: It's only a typical Naija guy that would see a babe and start confessing instant love. They may be in a serious relationship, but it doesn't stop them from proposing to random stranger, all just to get punny. Seriously!

Most of them claim they are unattached even when they are. This is a funny trend picked up by people you'd think are even more reasonable. Even married men are not spared. In the last year, 2 married men professed undying love to a cousin. They even brought the whole marriage thingamagig into the mix! All for punny!!!

You're in a relationship and just want to have a fling? JUST SAY IT! They are lots of openminded girls that are not necessarily looking for a commited relationship. They may not even mind, plus the honestly is definitely a PLUS.

For all those who try to get punny, after then what? You just move on?

You're definitely complicating your life more and more.

Typical Naija girl blaming her failed relationship on Nigerian Men.So its only Naija guys that go around looking for one night stand and pretending? its very obvious you have not see how other people of other nationalities run their own game apart from the romance books and movies you watch so you get brainwashed to think guys around you are the bad eggs while the good ones are other nationalities.

Tablets are not fast enough. Besides typing on screens is not really ideal but i guess we have detachable keyboards but thier processing powers are not fast enough and they dont have a lot of space. Maybe in the future if they add processing power and diskspace
