BEWARE! YOUR SMART PHONE MAY BE TEACHING YOU BAD ENGLISH
You need to watch it because your child’s smart phone may be teaching him/her bad English and even you as an adult.
Have you noticed the problem of English spelling with some recently released Android smart phones? It is unfortunate that at a time parents are complaining and lamenting that abbreviation words in the social media (text messages, facebook, whatsapp, twitter etc) has made mess of the ability of our youth to read and write good English.

And now most smart phones key boards are not helping matters rather they are compounding the problem of writing good and correct spelling of some English words. I don’t know why the manufacturers of these phones decided to omit some compound words from the English vocabulary? I as one, am finding it unbearable to tolerate this.

EXAMPLES : The following words are missing seriously from these smart phones/keyboards
1. Behind as” bind”
2. Vehicles = as “vicle “
3. Kehinde as “kinde”
4. Behold as “bold”
5. Apprehend as “append”
6. Household as ”housold”
7. Behave as “bave”
8. Behavior s “baviour”
9. Beheaded as “beaded”
10. Behalf as “balf”
11. Apprehensive as “apprensive” etc, etc (You can add yours as well)

Check out these wrong spelling of words in all the social media write ups and broadcasts and you will be amazed.

The question should be, are these new ways of spelling English words? What went wrong and who is to be blamed for all these: the Phone manufacturers of the keyboard owners? What is the solution to this problem or don’t we see it as a big problem?

Guy go and buy original phone and let us rest.

Nemesis catching up with them gradually.

Saraki approached a federal high court to stop his trial before the CCT citing the acquittal of Bola Tinubu by the same court for the same offence and on the same technical grounds of arraignment by the CCB and EFCC joint investigators.

The federal high Court rightfully threw out saraki's motion and pronounced that Tinubu's acquittal was an error by the CCT tribunal hearing his case.

What this means is that Tinubu's acquittal no longer stands and as such he can be rearriagned for the same offence all over again.

The possibility of Tinubu facing similar fate like saraki in the near future is thus inevitable.

I foresee either Buhari using the same CCT trial to check Tinubu when they inevitably fall out or a scenario when this boko govt is kicked out in 2019, Tinubu will surely face the CCT.

Tinubu in your blind silly ambitious rage to control the Senate you have shot yourself in the foot by opening up a can of worms.

Under which law are u going to try this? Just to clear ur ignorance, u cannot try a man twice for the same offence.

Waiting for my precious lovely dark skinned ladies.

I'm like D'banj, my pullout is always perfect. And when I explode outside, she knows she will never think I'm responsible if she gets pregnant.

sometime u don't feel love u just say it just to let the other person feel better.

Anty owala, na where u see white man?

Lobatan Saraki is gradually loosing the battle. Senate does not want to fight for him.

He's gradually remaining the only one facing his battle. Where is Dino and the other 90 senators? I heard they have been reduced to 4?

Worst of all pa Chukwudi44 is also nowhere to be found on internet. At least if his senators desert at the tribunal, pa chukwudi44 shld not also do like wise.

Nice expo.

These are the kind of threads that shld be featured not all those useless pictures of celebrities asking if they look ugly or horrible.

Nairaland mods sometimes act childishly, posting nonsensical threads that won't teach any lesson.

chukwudi44:
shebi tommorow na thursday baa? Let the injustice Umar go ahead to ignore the senate,Saraki will also ignore his useless court,If he orders for Saraki'\s arrest,the senate would do likewise

Oh, is that your game plan? Let's see it unfold. He has already replied and Saraki has already handed over to his deputy.

Danladi Umar has given reasons why he wld not be able to honor that invitation, pls tell me, what will be Saraki's reason not to answer present in the court of his lord Justice Umar Danladi?

•’Fayose’s letter amounts to sabotage’

House of Representatives Majority leader Femi Gbajabiamila has described Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose as a meddlesome interloper following the letter he wrote to Chinese President Xi Jinping on the alleged $6 billion loan sought by Nigeria from China.

In a letter to the Chinese leader yesterday, Gbajabiamila said Fayose ignorantly overreached himself and wilfully breached the constitution by failing to defend the oath he swore to.

The House leader, who said members of the lower chamber were worried by the flagrant abuse of office by Fayose, however, asked the Chinese leader to ignore him as he showed lack of understanding of the workings of the federal system of government.

It reads: “My attention has been drawn to a letter written to you by a governor of one of the states of in Nigerian, wherein the governor purported to speak on behalf of the Nigerian people, describing himself as a stakeholder in the Nigerian ‘project’.



“Ordinarily, I would not join issues with the governor but as the leader of the House of Representatives, I am saddled with the responsibility of driving government business and policies in the House.

“It is, therefore, incumbent upon me to set the records straight, though I am sure the letter written to you by the governor will probably receive little (if any) attention from your high office, assuming it even gets to you.

“Mr. President, Nigeria as you well-know is not a project as erroneously described by the governor, but a nation as all others in the comity of nations. It is also a federal republic operating under the principles of administrative and fiscal federalism.

“As such, as most democracies with a federal structure, Nigeria operates a three-tier government and adheres to the principle of separation of powers, which is both vertical and horizontal. Horizontal between the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches and vertical between the federal, state and local governments.

“To this extent, it is a clear affront on our constitution and ultra vires his mandate for a governor of a federating state to delve into any matter outside his state, particularly as it concerns international agreements between two sovereign nations.”

The letter added: “Therefore a governor who overreaches himself and acts outside his constitutional mandate can at best be described legally as a meddlesome interloper…

“Finally Mr. President, yes we are a democratic nation and yes citizens do have a right to freedom of expression (though not absolute), however this letter to you by an opposition governor is a new low in opposition politics.”

“What the state governor has done amounts to attempted economic sabotage and subversion. I ask, therefore, that you excuse the vituperations and exuberance of the governor as just that,” it said.

Wrong use of phrase. The text in bold font is only suitable for use when referring to legal treaties among nations.

Contempt indeed!! The senate performs oversight functions over the CCT and can order the removal of the CCT chairman by 2/3 majority

On what basis are they gonna remove the CCT judge? Let them start the process first and see if u will be able to come up online to support ur paymaster.

Can someone help us publish the names and phone numbers of the Senate Ethics committee members let's shame them.
