another case of putting the cart before the horse, Nigerian government officials lack the creativity and acutely short sighted to govern effectively. they are always looking for immediate success which will last only a short while and the problem is back on n full form.

@deep soul, how can he? he is a typical Nigerian

there is no development initiative that wont have its challenges in terms of implementation, but we must give it to Fashola he seems to know about the business of governance more than any politician in Nigeria right now. At least he is doing everything within his power to move Lagos forward. the guy is a breath of fresh air, if only the useless central government that have abrogated all the powers to themselves can be half as proactive as Fashola we would have gotten very far. A lot of political will will go a long way

best senate president? hm, well my take is that they are all jokers who didn't know what they were doing, question should be who is the worst among all the trash we have had. no good politician or Nigerian has yet to have the opportunity to have president added to his name except ofcourse Azikwe, who did not have any real form of power!!!!!

[Have u ever think deep if we were still under the Colonial master? and what they did to us? my friend the only answer to minority now is the state creation.]. THE PROBLEM WITH YOUR ANALYSIS IS THAT U DID NOT PUT INTO ACCOUNT THAT THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A MINORITY IN A SOCIETY. MINORITY ISN'T NECCESSARILY A RESULT OF DIFFERENCE IN TRIBES, OTHER FACTORS CAN BE RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. WHAT WE NEED IN NIGERIA IS A SYSTEM THAT WORKS, WHICH WILL START WITH A CONSTITUTION THAT IS WHOLY OWNED BY NIGERIANS. THE SO CALLED AREAS WHERE MAJOR TRIBES LIVE ARE LARGELY UNDERDEVELOPED, NIGERIA IS UNDERDEVELOPED. SOME PPL WILL JUST BEGIN THEIR OWN JOURNEY INTO STUPENDOUS RICHES WITH STATE CREATION. WE NEED SOLID DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES NOT ADDITIONAL STATES. THANK YOU

will wait till i can enjoy the song properly, networks messed up here. he has never claimed originality as one of his strong points though, but i like the guy he does commercial stuff and does not deny his passion is not good music but what danceable beats can bring, unlike that wack and confused thug Idrees who calls himself a rapper.

people who resort to violence and insults to bully people into seeing things there own way are not worth anything. MAITEMA, you sound intelligent, but you sure have a very low self esteem. Mikel is not Nigeria's saviuor, all the play makers you have mentioned would not have fared better than mikel if they were playing for Nigeria and NFF as it is today. is it any wonder that our golden age in football emerged after a lot of hard work and support over a couple of years. think before criticising Mikel. remember a Brazilian coach was reported to have said that he would win the world cup if he had Okocha in his team, we had okocha in our team and we won just one African Cup of Nations and could not even win the finals hosted in NIgeria. We also did not qualify for the last WORLD cup even though mikel was not a part of that team and if my memory serves me well Okocha was the captain. In a country where officials care more about allowances than they do about their players, what else can you expect from a player who knows all he has to do to continue in national team is to play well for his club and continue to earn hard currency with which he can bribe officials. THINK MY BROTHER MIKEL IS NOT OUR PROBLEM, HE IS JUST A BRANCH, A NATURAL OFFSHOOT OF THE PROBLEM, THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM IS NOT BEING ADDRESSED.

incompetence+ corruption/least productive= least paid.
equation don balance abi!!!!!!!

it is interesting to see the number of people who have taken time to respond to this post. this only underlies the fact that mikel is making an impact and we all love him irrespective of what some might say. i still believe that mikel is one of the greatest talent to have come out of Africa. the fact that he is playing regularly for chelsea now is a pointer to that, i know people will say that is because essien is unavailable. be that as it may with a belletti who is equally comfortable in that position and the fact that he has a a whole lot more experience than mikel says a lot about mikels ability. i wonder if anyone has noticed how the chelsea midfield crumbles and looks hapless any time mikel is substituted. Anyway to sum it up MIKEL WILL REACH HEIGHT UNIMAGINABLE SOON.

BLUE BLOOD, TRUE BLUE, ITS BLUE FOR LIFE, HATING WONT HELP, ARSENAL CAN TAKE ALL THE FANS WE WILL KEEP PILING THE TROPHIES. EVEN YOUR CAPTAIN SAID THERE IS NO WINNING MENTALITY IN THE TEAM. THE DAYS OF 0_{[/sub]2 IS GONE FOREVER YOU ARE NOW CO[sub]}2 WASTE PRODUCTS. SACK YOUR COACH AND ENJOY A BIT OF WHAT WE ARE ENJOYING.

It is still an allegation. I expect the guy to be a lot careful after the Etteh saga.[quote][/quote]

na wa 4 u o, what have you learnt all tese years, Nigerian politicians dont care about anything except money. they no the usual practice now. steal and be impeached the money still remains in your bank account. i wont be surprised to hear that he has finshed playing his set you know like after set in table tennis. he will be removed another will take over to play his own set. Nigerian politrics na after set

i dont know if my response is late but i will give it anyway for the benefit of others. Now your problem could be that you where only attracted to her outward attributes like her sophistication, poise, beauty and so on ( a usual mistake) that is not bad in itself. but the problem is that usually the closer people get the more they care less about acting up and the they tend be be themselves. this can disillussion you. To maintain a serious relationship you need a lot of things one of which is maturity. Experience will tell you that all relationships go the same way, that is no matter how much you love someone there will be times you will feel no desire, like running away, the person is not attractive enough, and other girls will look more atractive. But if you are ready for a relationship you will stick in there and make it work. the success of relationships like everything in life depends on the efforts you put in it. except if the other party is making things too difficult which is not the case here. However you can sit her down and tell her that love is not measured only by the number of times you spend together, that you can love each other be close and still maintain your individual identity like friends.

if she is such a wonderful woman y did he color the story with her age and his, and the fact that he has been with her for 7 years even though he had suspected she couldnt give him a baby. and the big one "i cant get seriuos with another girl" .this is to garner cheap sympathy from people. he will only insist on pregnancy before marriage if he has cause. she was probably taking good care of him before he became comfortable. whatever bro your story is too one sided to be the real thing. Tell her the truth or one of the popular lies. afterall she can become pregnant and after the marriage lose the pregnancy and never conceive again, wetin u go do den, kill her or run.

I find it difficult to understand y people talk about love like its supposed to last for ever without basing my assumptions on any scientific proof i think it is too obvious that love is not everlasting. And that is why people with experience tell u that love is not just enough in marriage. they infact lay more emphasis on honesty, trust, patience, tolerance, faith and so on.

the whole essence of marriage is to prohibit indiscriminate sex which will lead to indiscriminate procreation to ensure the sanctity of our societies. for what ever reason one chooses to get married or not i think one thing is clear. Only you can make yourself TRULY HAPPY. how u seek happinees is entirely upto u in or outside marriage. No religion PREACHES THAT marriage GUARANTEES HAPPINESS EVER. THAT WAS FABRICATED BY MAN. THROW AWAY THE MISCONCEPTION. MARRIAGE IS ONLY A MEANS TO AN END.

for the simple reason that u ve decided to seek for advice, i believe u must have seen no future in the relationship and since u have toasters, u ve seen one or two better than your guy. I think what u want to hear is to be sure that people will not label you as wicked, unfeeling and so on. How long you spend in a relationship does not matter what matters is your hapiness, for all i know you might have spent that long deceiving yourself that things will get better while knowing fully that ur guy is not doing anything to better is condition. For all its worth i must say that this is ur call.

U HAVE A RIGHT TO ENJOY URSELF JUST DONT HURT OTHER PEOPLE IN THE PROCESS. IF THE NEW GUY IS SO HURT GO FOR HIM AFTERALL ITS UR LIFE. JUST BE DECENT ENOUGH TO LET UR MAN KNOW WHAT U RE GETTING INTO

IT IS SAID THAT "DISTANCE IS TO LOVE WHAT WIND IS TO FIRE. IT EXTINGUISHES THE SMALL AND REKINDLES THE GREAT." ONLY THE GREAT CAN SURVIVE, NEED I SAY MORE

ISN'T THAT IRONICAL, A PERSON WHO IS SO EMOTIONAL SHE DOES NOT LIKE TO MAKE PEOPLE CRY. HAS SHE EVER THOUGHT OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THE WIFE FINDS OUT HER HUSBAND HAS BEEN CHEATING ON HER WITH A PERSON WHO DOESN'T LIKE TO MAKE PEOPLE CRY.

most are right but start applying the rules only after you 'VE had sex with HIM for some time and you are not providing any material benefit

thank u all so much, i have been thinking of getting myself trained in web designing, but i live in Kano where there isn't much opportunities for trainings, seminars etc. am also the IEC officer in my organisation which is an NGO. we have a website which is redundant and needs managing. i would like to learn a lot about web mgt and design. pls i need websites that can help me. i saw one on the posts just wondering if there are more thank you.

YEMI TELLA SUUN RE O(REST IN PEACE)
i am not surprised by the attitude of the NFA. i would have been more surprised if they had acted otherwise. their treatment of our footballers has never been anything short of selfishness. they use and dump players and coaches without consideration. little wonder then that our younger players have learnt from the xperience of others and they have put club above country. just looking at the long list of abandoned sports men compared to that of well off administrators and you will understand.Imagine Atiku Abubakar who ranks top on list of worst Nigerian leaders was flown abroad for an ordinary leg injury, talk of misplaced priorities!!!!!

Which is the most hated public service institution in Nigeria PHCN OR NIGERIAN POLICE FORCE. dont need to ask for reasons i know u will give plenty

if a guy claims he steals to satisfy a girl it simply means the girl must have put him under some kind of pressure if not then the motive for the stealing would not be to satisfy the girl but himself. if u dont know the source of all his expensive gifts and habit and u live with it n enjoy it, ofcourse u would disappear at the first sign of truoble.

you all can shoot your mouth for ever if u like but mind you its only a matter of time before every body takes their usual position on the table. and for those of you who think the title is already won and lost, need i remind you that their is still so much points to play for. THE GREAT CHELSEA still has more than a fair chance of becoming the champions, which is their rightful position anyways. for the match between man u and arsenal it does not bother me who wins as it will have no direct bearing on who becomes eventual champions. i HATE the both of them anyway

monika lewinsky sorry she isn't an artist anyway i still like her kind of art

you know girls don't even know what they really want dat y u hardly see a lady land her supposedly dream man in real life. see dream men are reality monsters reason why a man with all the quality they want breaks heart all the tyme.

surprised i didnt read any who likes a guy with the extra long thing(penis) like we are made to beliv. it just goes to show that it is not how big but what u can do with it. so less endowed guys have hope u are still in relevance.

the problem with a lot of relationships is that people expect to get their hapiness from their partners. i think only a person can make him/herself happy depending on choices made.

my dear nobody's fortune is tied to any one man or company for that matter. alternatives are what we allow ourselves 2 c. if you make up ur mind to take an action options open up like magic. never compromise yuor values for any reason especially blackmail or intimidation
