These are American frigates, they re not our ships. We only have small gun boats like the one below.

You don't know anything my friend! Just over a year or so ago we took custody of two custom built frigates (brand new) from china. Including NNS Unity.

Why some people delight in spreading lies to tarnish the image of the country, I just cannot tell.

DirtyGold:
Nice but not befitting for a country that claims to be giant of Africa.
Basic stuffs just for surveillance and defence.
Not sophisticated enough for invasion or ability to defend and attack at the same time.

***modified***

What is wrong or what prevents Nigeria from developing its own weapons and platforms?
Does anything forbid Nigeria from aspiring to have modern or superior weapons in the world?
Why do we send men and officers abroad?
Is it a case of lack of foresight or just the absence of ambition for real greatness?

What's tha business?

I think you already know they answer to your question. Greedy self-centered leadership has run the country into the ground in almost all sectors

It might surprise you to learn that Nigeria is only West African nation with a meaningful navy. So we are relatively strong in terms of tge relative threat.

The nation I currently going through so many other challenges including an insurgency in an arid region so spending hundreds of millions of dollars on more sophisticated warships would not be prudent

lofty900:
how do you know which one is infected or not.

Is that a rhetorical question?

Being able to tell whether one is infected or not is irrelevant in terms of your assertion that performing cunnilingus will give one throat cancer. The fact is, performing cunnilingus on a woman who is infected with hpv increases the chances of contracting a hpv infection in the throat, which could lead to throat cancer.

I hope you are not averse to knowledge?

lofty900:
Actually the opposite is the case. It will give you throat cancer even faster than smoking.

Only if the woman is infected with hpv...otherwise its completely harmless.

77%?? Whaat??

I don't feel safe around these Nigerian girls!!

I didn't mediate because the wife is something else. Constantly cursing and abusing the husband. Infact the husband is the one washing his cloths and cooking food. The husband claimed the wife didn't work for 10yrs they were married but started selling things at bodija market last year due to financial hardship. Instead of her to help in the house she's keeping her money in cooperative. Now the wife have left for her stall in the market with shattered lips and swollen face. Her loads are outside. The children have gone to school, but the husband is at home cleaning out the room. The wife will return certainly in the evening. When they are likely to continue from where they stop. I'm afraid the worst might happen. The husband was about to hit the first born with a wood for screaming a while ago

In the future that small child will probably say "i love my mother, she was there for us"

"my father was wicked...he left us" etc.

Such a pity.

Beemhan:
you obviously haven't seen ladies that are crazy about football

sure there may be a few but we are talking about the balance of probability here

Beemhan:
I wonder what makes you all think it's a guy

Too many football related comments

Nathan2016:
ONE OF THEM SPOTTED .TWITTER WARRIOR[code][/code]

I cant remember the last time I used twitter. I probably spend a cumulative 5 mins per week on facebook. And I am an employer of labour by the special grace of the Almighty.

So you see, just take the wisdom in what i said and leave it at that.

Nathan2016:
Sometimes I wonder.....thats why most of our youths are unproductive...twitter, instagram, faacebook.snapchat,..how manage

While you are wondering, wonder about this: The post you made here on nairaland is about the same length or longer than the average twitter post. You live in a glass house mister.

Pasidon:
Women are so unbelievable and biased... Now they are all scolding d guy for not giving d girl money.... Let's just imagine it was d other way round.. A guy walks up to a lady and offers to give her mouth action in exchange for money.. The lady wont only reject him.. But will also make sure she disgraced him very well... She might even term him a ritualist

It was just transport fare... Although it is insulting for the lady to assume that a random man is so desperate for a Mouth Gig, I personally would have helped if I could and ignored the offer.

You cant give to everyone but id give to someone who was that desperate.

Also you cant really switch the scenario around to say what would have happened if it were a man who did that to a woman because the dynamics are different.

DaySpringer:
Rostov Players raised their games three times..

Now imagine
Lyon or Ajax players doing that
I don't even want to talk about the German teams

They wo t do that because naturally playing man Utd won't be such a big game for them as it would be for Rostov. Also the Man Utd players will likely have a better response to better teams.

After all we did much better against St Etienne didn't we? Stop going haywire over one fixture.

DaySpringer:
Sad thing here is that Manchester United Cannot Win this Europa.

If We can barely Beat Rostov At home. What Chance do we stand against
Anderlect
Genk
Celta Vigo
Ajax

Football does not work like that. There are so many intangibles such as the fact that every single Rostov player probably raised his game like three times
above his usual level simply because playing against man Utd is a dream come true.

Also, these guys just played 1 man down for 50+ minutes versus the best team in the premier league. How great were you expecting them to be barely three days later?

veinless:
nice

lost 1.8k yesterday in a bus....feeling like d world should juat come to an end

Over 1,800 naira? approximately just 4 dollars?

Nigerian leaders what have you done to these people?

BetaThings:
Soldiers are not thugs
They should not beat people up because they are insulted or whatever
They should demonstrate discipline and restraint!

Soldiers and police need the support of the people
They recruit civilians and rely on civilians for information

But you do not know what actually happened do you? Do you know whether this story is true in the first place? Don't you think that a picture of a battered woman, while outrageous, is not sufficient evidence that her allegations are true? Do you believe that no one is above manipulating a picture to achieve a hidden agenda? Don't you think an attempt to leave out a critical portion of a story is a sign of dishonesty? And where there is a suspicion of dishonesty, don't you think we must carefully examine all allegations before we pass judgment?

If you can agree with me that these questions are pertinent, then the next step is for you to realize that what is needed is for you to ask questions that would give you more information, upon which you can make a sound decision and subsequently a judgment.

abbeyty:
just shut your mouth you fking son of a gun, are you trying to justify these barbarians for what they did to this woman ? which story do you want to hear that will justify this inhuman behavious. Now i know that the country is really a zoo full with cruel animals including this idiot

lol. nairaland has made uneducated cretins feel bold...

You cannot even reason that justice always requires that both sides of the story be told? There is actually no evidence that any of the allegations made here are factual. But i am not surprised you cannot reason like an enlightened creature.

Anyway, if you need me to sponsor one year of your tuition in any Nigerian university, please humble yourself and send me a pm. I will consider it.

My problem with these sort of stories is that they hardly tell you what the "innocent" civilians did. Almost invariably, the story starts from soldiers slapped him/her/it.... Buy there were thousands of people who encountered those same soldiers on that particular day so why is it you that they decided to brutalize?

Even according to the allegation, the brother collected only a slap so how cone they went overboard with the woman like this?

Tell us the full story.

@ Smart101, ayoolasamuel01, khadijathassan

I really appreciate the feedback from you guys...i didn't go through with that particular transaction and now i will be sure to get in touch with their support team before doing anything else in this regard. I will update this thread with the response from them when i do.

All I see is black yansh and a shameless girl

it would take quite a lot of persuasion to get me to try that black soup of a food going by that picture!

i'm edo btw

hehehe....Churchill churchill...the apple has not fallen far from the tree after all

By all accounts a great soldier.

You fought well sir, now rest in peace.

oswaggiee:
i have used them before, they are legit, its also a payment gateway

Thanks bro.

0079jaBond:
Op, how are these beautiful women looking desperate? E be like say eye dey pain you

Oga there is a show called desperate housewives. Google it and you will understand what the poster meant

Hello everyone.

I am not too familiar with Cashenvoy and how they operate, so i would appreciate it if anyone here could help provide some clarity. I am in the process of signing up with them, but surprisingly they are asking for my credit/debit card PIN. Why would they need this?

Is this legit??

raker300:
Lemme say that's what like 30% of the bank staff earn while the remaining 70% work as contract staff with a salary of 70k

That must be a joke. The middle management ranks earn in the millions per month

Obviously a mistake

nerilove:
Very gory pictures. But why dont they use those money they pay for boat space and set up small scale businesses in their country? I'll say it's greed. They know how difficult it is and still want to try.

Pure greed and covetousness.

I'd imagine that anywhere in Africa, $850 is enough to start some kind of business, and definitely so in the Gambia. I know people who have started with $10 and are doing good today. This one in particular, that is teling this story must have expended at least $1,500 and his own goal is just to get there and become a parasite to the system.

What is worse is that he is not actually discouraging people from going to Europe the back way, but he is only warning them not to use the Libya route.

StainlessH:
What is he arrested for?

When you have knowledge of criminal activity and you do not report it, it is called aiding and abetting.

Clone2020:
After all those years of school? That's less than half of what dentists charge for a root canal in the US. You have dentists making over $250,000 a year in the US. Now I see why our brightest flee the country.

The tuition fees alone for one year of dental school in the US will pay for 10 dental student's full program, living costs and pocket money for their full period of study in a Nigerian university.

still curious as to how madam Idibia was able to infer all that she has from one picture.
