| Politics › Governor Fashola Accusing GEJ Of Sabotaging GMB/PYO Campaign Strategies. by Sowl(op): 6:14am On Jan 23, 2015 |
Dear Compatriots, Barely 48 hours ago I invited you to a press briefing to unveil our plans to raise funding for the Buhari-Osinbajo campaign. I told you about the problems we were having with the domain by the Federal Government, which forced us to switch from www.apcgmbpyo.com.ng to www.apcgmbpyo.org. I mentioned the commercial nature of the transactions we had with the businesses who were partnering with us and the benefits to the economy. I also stated very clearly that these businesses had no partisan relationship but are providing professional service. I said so, in order to protect their businesses because of the increasing intolerance we were witnessing from the Jonathan and PDP Presidential campaign and some Federal Government agencies that have taken a partisan position. It is with very deep sadness that I address you all today, because I never expected that I will witness in Nigeria some of the very distasteful and disgraceful conduct that the Federal Government, the PDP and the President have embarked upon, by way of repression of freedoms. As a Nigerian, I feel personally embarrassed. Before the end of Tuesday when I addressed you here, the National Communications Commission (the NCC) had issued a letter to the telecoms operators not to carry political messages. I will leave a copy of one of such letter to you. The question to ask is, if traditional media, radio, newspapers and television can carry political messages, why should new and social media not participate and benefit? Why should commercial transactions that promote business, the economy and jobs be frustrated because of one man’s desire to serve? Why should a President who says he cares about young people and wants their votes be shutting down their generation’s platform? Is the President himself not using the same platform? Is this not a media censorship? As if this was not enough, reports reaching me yesterday evening was that the 35350 platform for contributing by SMS had been shut down. On Tuesday when I announced the opening of the platform we getting 4-5 text messages of N100 each every one minute, and 5,400 messages had been received by 2.30pm after which they had stopped and I was getting text messages on my own phone by Nigerians complaining that they could no longer access the 35350 platform. Approval was given by the same NCC to the Goodluck-Sambo campaign in 2010. Inspite of these irritations, it is encouraging to us to note and to report to you that the enthusiasm of Nigerians for change is already visible from the first day we launched these payment platforms. Between the 5 banks alone, we have raised little sums of N822,928.80 from bank payments and N606,000 has been raised from the internet platform before the interference. This is what we sought to achieve. A democratization of fund raising, transparency and commercial opportunities for businesses. From now, the bank and one card scratch platforms are working and the urge Nigerians who wish to join this movement of change to continue to use them. We use this medium to implore Mr. President to redeem his democratic credentials and act according to the peace pact he signed by directing NCC to restore the 35350 platform. After all, this is nothing but a context of ideas aimed at serving the people. Dear compatriots, there are dark clouds gathering, but I remain optimistic that they will yield to a glorious dawn. The promise of Nigeria is greater that the ambition of one man or a political party. Beyond the campaign of the APC for change, there is already a momentum of the Nigerian people for change that is far ahead of our campaign. This is the people’s desire, nothing can stop it. The dictates of honour demand that no right thinking person should attempt to resist it. May God bless and prosper Nigeria.

| Romance › Top 10 Hilarious “nigerian Chat-up Lines” Used By Nigerianguys by Sowl(op): 6:11pm On Jan 18, 2015*. Modified: 6:27pm On Jan 18, 2015 |
Nigerians are very creative; they have the ability to create funny chat-up lines in a loving way. You will be surprised at how amusing they can get when they’re interested in someone and need to initiate a conversation. Some could be funny, creative, intriguing or downright annoying but at this point all they’re thinking about is how to create a common ground, approach a stranger without getting embarrassed or rejected. Here are the top ten Nigerian funniest chat-up lines that will make you laugh your heart out: 1. “You look familiar, have we met?” This seems to be the most popular in Nigeria when it comes to chat-up lines. A guy walks up to you and is like “… Hey. .. You look familiar, have we met?”. ( And you’re staring blankly like …” No, I don’t think so” and he goes …”Oh common don’t tell me you can’t remember me. ..”. So in a bid to defend your memory, you oblige and chat or you really don’t care and tell the person off. 2. “Can I follow you home? ‘Cos my parents told me to always follow my dreams” When you hear a line like this, you may be too weak to react cos you’re boiling within with laughter. All that runs through your mind could be “what the heck is he (or she as the case may be) thinking?”. 3. “Hey, you are very pretty, you look exactly like my mum” This sounds awkward because the lady does not know how the person’s mom look. However, some women may feel honoured while some maybe like .. ” What? are you alright? You wish!” 4. “Ooooo Boi! I wish I met you first” This line is pretty famous in the circles of those who meet someone they think they like when they’re already in a serious relationship. It’s a funny way to break the ice but it works. Sometimes, It has an uncanny feel to it that can soften the other person’s disposition towards you. 5. “You’re the only egg in my roll. Without you I’m just a buns” Now talk about downright hilarious. Even the meanest or hardest Nigerian mind will break a smile on hearing this. The mere thought of the person trying to talk to you being a “buns” is so funny. Using this is sure to kick start your much needed chat but you’ve got to get creative to keep it going. 6. “I’m not a prophet but I can see you and I together” When you hear such lines, the first thing that comes to mind will be “hmmmm, the brother’s getting all religious on me” and as funny as it may sound it, works for some people. 7. “I thought happiness starts with letter H, why does mine start with U?” How creative and smooth, when you hear such lines you just smile because you get carried away by the mind behind those words. It’s funny but cute at the same time, words like this can break any ice cold heart and get a conversation going. Besides, give the brother some credit for the pun. 8. “Does it Hurt? (What?) Falling from heaven”. I’ve heard men use this line a lot. Its just a sweet way to tell a lady that she is an angel. It’s kind of abstract because it starts with a question – Does it hurt? It’ll definitely trigger some curiosity in the mind of the lady because it’s awkward. And the later part – falling from heaven – creates the opposite reaction because they never saw it coming. It’s an old classic pick up line that still works. 9. “Hi I’m kind of lost. please can you help me find my way to …..?” I can bet you this line has been in use for decades and till date it works. It makes you sound vulnerable and in need of help but the aim is to draw attention and start a conversation. This kind of pick of line works better in public places. 10. “Now I know why Solomon had 700 wives… He never met you!” Talk about religious and funny, this is sure to earn you a smile from that ‘sister’ that’s got your nerves in a twist and your mind all tangled up. This type of lines that have a biblical feel to them are best tried on religious person with a sense of humour. When it comes to chat-up or pick-up lines, you’ll hear a lot of things. However, in the mouth of the right person, a line that sounds so silly can be said in a way that will charm the other party and culminate in a lasting relationship – be it platonic or romantic. The thing is to adequately access the circumstances and environment under which you’re meeting as well as the person in question otherwise the only thing you maybe picking is a “dirty slap”. culled from yabaleft blog. 1 Like 1 Share

| Nairaland General › List Of Internet Acronyms Used By Teens On Social Media by Sowl(op): 7:07am On Dec 17, 2014 |
Acronyms are widely popular across the Internet, especially on social media and texting apps, because, in some cases, they offer a shorthand for communication that is meant to be instant but at the same time, young teens create internet acronyms to chat with peers and their parents wont blink an eye cos they obvious;y don't understand what the kids are saying. You know what “LOL” means and you also obviously know what “BRB” means, but let me test your coolness! Any idea what “IWSN” and “NIFOC” stands for in Internet slangs? “IWSN” is a declarative statement: I want sex now while “NIFOC” means naked in front of computer. If it makes you feel any better, I had no clue, and neither did a number of women I asked about it. So “LMK” — let me know — and “WYCM” — will you call me? — are innocent enough. But the issue, especially for parents, is understanding the slang that could signal some dangerous teen behavior, such as “GNOC,'” which means “get naked on camera.” And it certainly helps for a parent to know that “PIR” means parent in room, which could mean the teen wants to have a conversation about things that his or her mom and dad might not approve of. NN’s digital correspondent, Kelly Wallace, compiled a list of some internet acronyms widely used by savvy teens on social media and texting apps that he thinks all parents should know...lol for CNN. Read the list, he says it will redefine how you monitor your teen’s conversations with his/her peers when you continue..... Quote 1. IWSN - I want sex now 2. GNOC - Get naked on camera 3. NIFOC - Naked in front of computer 4. PIR - Parent in room 5 CU46 - See you for sex 6. 53X - Sex 7. 9 - Parent watching 8. 99 - Parent gone 9. 1174' - Party meeting place 10. THOT - That hoe over there 11. CID - Acid (the drug) 12. Broken - Hungover from alcohol 13. 420 - Marijuana 14. POS - Parent over shoulder 15. SUGARPIC - Suggestive or erotic photo 16. KOTL - Kiss on the lips 17. (L)MIRL - Let's meet in real life 18. PRON - Porn 19. TDTM - Talk dirty to me 20. 8 - MouthAction 21. CD9 - Parents around/Code 9 22. IPN - I'm posting naked 23. LH6 - Let's have sex 24. WTTP - Want to trade pictures? 25. DOC - Drug of choice 26. TWD - Texting while driving 27. GYPO - Get your pants off 28. KPC- keeping parents clueless So next time you find your teenage kids or younger siblings typing in code formats like military programmers or hackers while online you won't be made to wander and wonder like a clueless adult |
