CelebritiesRe: Eva Alordiah's New Vs Old Look: Which Do You Prefer? by SmartMugu: 5:56pm On Feb 05, 2016
Prefer the old look for her type of music.
The girl is pretty good with her rhymes though, I first heard her on youtube about 4 years ago on her Jimmies jump off performance

Do you think the BH guys would divulge their locations over the phone? grin If tapping phones could have yielded their location, the Nigerian Army would have been able to pinpoint the exact location of the BH crew in Sambisa forest ages ago, (instead of shelling anything that moves in the forest) and they would have also been able to rescue the Chibok girls, by now. cheesy
Nigerian army may just be crude in their approach. The US authorities have been tracking phone locations since the 80s. These days of smartphones, anyone can be tracked much more easily via various geo methods. Cellphone tower tracking is an option too.

The US offered to help around surveillance, training etc but returned home when they found out the Nigerian military wasn't willing for the fight to end. Isn't that what we are seeing now from Dasukigate?

Even if he did, it only became a story because he said "I do" to another woman. Isn't that why many celebs prefer having baby mamas to having a wife? Because he is married, someone willing to break his home comes up with an allegation of infidelity and everybody screams, but for those celebs with just baby mamas, no wives - it's no big deal if he fu*k her, several others are waiting in line for him anyways.

Stop trying to project what happened to you to all the other Chinese people.
Besides, didn't your parents teach you growing up that two wrongs don't make a right?
What am I projecting here? That I have over 4 chinese neighbors that would never greet a black family for almost 3 years and greet one another. Two wrongs don't make a right, so I shouldn't just ignore them like they do me?

But what if the Chinese person did not know this? He is from a different culture you know?
I don't think it has to do with their culture. We watch their movies and we see them bow to one another and even use the word "Master" a lot, showing they have manners within themselves.
I work in a multinational corporation with folks from all walks of life including same Chinese people, yet everyone says hi to one another in the morning. Still manners.
Now same people will go to Nigeria and expect to be treated as Masters. Heck no.

Nigerian govt hasn't bought any reasonable number of Innoson vehicles, it is now Ghana that will buy.. Abeg
I thought as much. Ghana has their own locally made vehicles (Katanka), why would they buy Nigerian made before patronizing theirs?

Nice observation. Yet, in the US, you will rarely find any police vehicle that is not made in the US all across the 50 states. Their police don't use any foreign vehicle except for special or undercover operations. In our case, our leaders prefer to patronize foreign products, making them richer and not helping to create employment in the manufacturing areas here at home.

I mean they can do waay better. Get some guys in yaba tech or Nsukka. make it a design competition or something... winner gets a cash prize. surely Mazi Innoson cant be that stingy.
Yeah, that logo is freaking ugly...could be rebranded.

Ikengawo:

It's not that the chinese guys doesn't 'see you as anything'
outside of africa and many other tropical countries, greetings to people you don't know aren't necessary.

I was raised in the US and I get in trouble for not greeting ppl sometimes. People don't greet each other often in countries outside of Nigeria especially when there's a pressing issue at hand or you have an objective. Sometimes I'm going to the market and people will ask why i didn't greet them but it's not to be malicious. Greeting everyone you see is not something I or the chinese person grew up doing.
I don't understand what you mean you grew up not greeting people. No one says anyone should greet everyone they meet on their way anywhere, whoever does that in Nigeria is mad. But if you need them for something as little as a favor or directions, courtesy demands at least saying hi first, unless ure in some dire situations like driving in moving traffic and being in a haste.

Don't generalise it, the Chinese I work with a phone company won't call the name are very friendly nice and they can greet
You're lucky you found some nice ones. I live in a neighborhood full of them. My house here in Atlanta is the only one with black people living there and my kids are the only black kids in the block. I've lived in the house for almost three years, and the Chinese neighbors surrounding me never said hi back whenever I greet them in the morning. They just look away like I don't exist, yet they greet one another right in my face.

The first time my son tried to ride his bike with the other kids (mainly Chinese, Koreans etc), they spat on him and he rode back home crying. I confronted they parents to control their kids else I'd involve the cops when next it happens. Now my son goes to school with them on the same school bus with them but his only friend on the bus is this Hispanic neighbor's kid cos the Chinese kids are bullies to him.

These Chinese kids will someday grow up, and possibly come to Nigeria feeling like gods cos of how their parent felt about black people.

You and that friend of yours are both stupid. It's only in this useless part of the world where people take greetings seriously as if its what will bring food to their table. As for me, whether people greet me or not, i dont care (even little kids) as me myself aint really used to greeting people. Its just my nature and whether it annoys you is your own cup of tea. What if he was an important investor or customer you just sent away? Better look for that young man and apologize to him.
What part of the world have you been where people don't take greetings seriously? I asked because I've been to several countries and people still know manners. Even the worst parts of the US, gangsters and hoodrats still say 'Hi' , 'Hey' or 'Sup' at least before chatting with a person they don't know. I'd like to know one part of the world where greeting is taboo like you argued.
CareerRe: My Experience With A Chinese Man Today In My Workplace by SmartMugu: 10:35pm On Feb 04, 2016
I experienced the same thing several years ago with some Asian dude in Nigeria. He stepped out of his car and walked up to me and some friends I was standing with to ask for directions.

I'd expect a simple 'Hi' first, before making his request, or at least say 'please,' first. Instead, the fool just walked up to us like "How do I get to XYZ place." Sounded like he was talking to some robots he created. I wasted no time and put him right in his place. My response was " if you have no manners where you're from, get the fk outta my face". He said no word back and just walked back to his car.

A Nigerian friend recently visited Nigeria from the US and was standing in line at an eatery somewhere in Lagos. There were people there before him, so he had to join the queue to place the order. After waiting in line for almost 20 minutes, all of a sudden, one of these Chinese men walked in and went all the way to the front to place his orders, bypassing everyone else that had been waiting before him. My friend asked one of the workers there who that man was and if he owned the place or something, they responded "Oh, he's an Oyinbo and we dey always give dem their food first". Not satisfied with the response he got, my friend walked up to the Chinese man and asked him who he was and why he thought everyone else before him were less than him. He explained that he was an expatriate and in a rush. Still not satisfied, my friend asked him to kindly go back to the end of the queue and wait for his turn like everyone else. He obliged and apologized to everyone. He ended up waiting in line like everyone else.

The idea is if no one says anything, theyll assume everyone worships them. Confront them in clear English if they understand it and put some sense in their heads.

The funny thing is that these people and indians ain't worth nothing in places like the US but try to form voltron in Nigeria. I guess its because some Nigerians call them Oyinbo and they need a piece of the 'white supremacy' crap they can't get anywhere else in the world.

RomanceRe: We Aren't Married But He Wants These From Me by SmartMugu: 2:53pm On Feb 04, 2016
The topic says he's not married to you and he wants you to do these things for him, would you do them if he marries you? If no, don't start. If yes, then why not do them now and let him know you have the qualities?

If he craves a woman thats is raised to help with chores at home, and you see that as enslavement, most likely you guys are incompatible.

I'm sure there are women out there that don't see anything wrong in those, especially when they're raised like that and he can find one of them definitely.
