Nairaland GeneralRe: In Pictures: Fashola Beautifies Eko Atlantic City Lagos Ahead Of 2015, New Year by StoneColdBiceps(m): 2:08pm On Dec 31, 2014
Roland17:
Critize and hate all you want.... there is absolutely no question as to the visible physical, infrastructural and to some extent mentality transformation that have occurred in Lagos State during his tenure, especially for the populace who have been resident or previously lived in Lagos for the past 10-15 years..

It is very vital for a developing economy to have proven intellectuals within administration as leaders and Fashola has more than justified this school of thought..
We have a lot of Fasholas only if our political environment allows them. Party aside, fashola is a complete gentle man, a cosmopolitan leader and a regular guy-he is not a politician. I see d likes of Jimi Agbaje as a replica of Fashola, even eerm errm Ambode but i dont trust accountants but he looks like a fine one. We need leaders of d likes of Fashola. I wait for that kind of a leader dat will transform Benue State (Otukpo).

But why insult the op nauw? She mentioned she doesn't support the actions of her friend. Besides, people have different orientations and how they perceive things.

If you observed other posts before mine, even those made by guys, they did not see anything wrong with the actions of the lady.
Lol evina, i ddnt insult d Op and her friend cos its preetie unnecessary. I envisioned dat some immature minds can do some obviouse wrong and tink its smart n cool.

Evina:
It is not a matter of settling well or not.

Why do you think it is taken to the extreme when a woman cheats, in comparison to when a man does? Because of the male ego. When a woman turns to an ex for anything, even as little as an advice, it is perceived that her man is not man enough, to provide the satisfaction she needs.

Money matters is even worse, because many people associate the weight of a man with his financial capabilities.

Your friend is behaving like a foolish woman, excited to pull down her home.
In as much as dis is a public forum to learn, i think there should bé a slot dat request for age of OP and d age of d person d story is involved. This will let people to know wat to comment and ignore. Op u have brain and ur friend too, use it!

FoodRe: 5 Different Kinds Of annoying Persons You Meet When Buying Suya by StoneColdBiceps(m): 10:39pm On Dec 19, 2014
saintopus:
I went to buy Suya this evening at a junction along my street. I saw many guys and babes waiting for their turn to be served Suya by the Aboki. I noticed the following kinds of people:

1. 'Give me test' Aboki
These persons take seriously in collecting a small piece of Suya from the seller. They hardly know that it is part of their own suya they are eating.

2. 'Put More Onions'
These persons are onions addict, they like oniins. They will tell, the Aboki to make sure that more onions are added to their suya.

3. 'Aboki Put Jara'
These class of people like to be given something more to what they paid for. They do not mind if they buy only N50.00 worth of suya.?

4. 'People Who come to Smell the Suya.'
These are the "long throat " class. They follow friends to just feel the smell of the suya, in some cases, they are the ones that will shout "Aboki the suya too small "

5. 'The Big Boys'
They come usually remain in their cars and order the Aboki to put suya worth N2000.00 in five places and that means many people have to wait for a long time.


Please add your experiences
D only thing i understand in ur post is d contineous use of "northerner" whats northerner when u cld say "suya seller". So if u go to yaba market and want to buy okrika cloth u 'll say "the eastherner refuse to sell at N100"? #deadcuriouse

So you loved Idumota market and you loved to shop stuffs at idumota market? Ok....
Dat stuffs u tink u bought cheap on d street or shops along Nnamdi Azikiwe street and other outer part of Idumota market, so you think u got it for cheap!? Ok...

I've bought packs of singlets, body cream, cologn/perfume always on d outside till my babe told me to go inner shops, and wolla dey are almost half d prices i bought on d outside street shops of the market!

So, This are the secret of buying relatively cheap at idumota market specially if ur a newbie in d market...

Any stuff u buy along the road on d outside of d main idumota market is uhhhh, ohhhh, hmmmm cheap! But if u go a little further inside d marker dat same stuff u but on d outer marker is relatively cheaper wit like maybe #300 difference!...and if u decided to go a little more further into d market u'll get dat stuff dats relatively cheaper by #300 for #400 cheapie*. Then if u go a little bit bit more more further u'll get d same stuff #400/#500 cheapie cheapie*. Thats according to d stuff ur buying.

CrimeRe: 4 Suspected Cultists Arrested For Allegedly Raping A Girl During Initiation by StoneColdBiceps(m): 11:25am On Dec 01, 2014
lalasticlala:
Akure — THE Ondo State Police Command has arrested four suspected cultists for gang-raping a girl in Ondo town, after which they stole her handset.

According to the police, the victim (identity withheld) was raped as she was being initiated by the cultists.

The command said the rapists were among 14 cultists arrested alongside six suspected robbers, three burglars, one fraudster and four kidnappers terrorising the state.

Parading the suspects, the state Police Commissioner, Isaac Eke, said items recovered include N11,000 cash, a Toyota Camry marked FST 48 AC valued at N1.7 million, Scania Lorry marked KWC 232XA, among others.

Eke said the Toyota Camry which was stolen at Odode Idanre was recovered in Sapele, Delta State, by police detectives after one Afolabi Abiola took them there.
On the cult members arrested, the police chief said they had been responsible for murder, rape and stealing in Owo, Ondo and Akure towns.

According to him, the cultists were arrested by a team of Special Anti-Cultist Squad, SACS.

Eke said one Alhassan Shittu was duped to the tune of N1.5 million by some fraudsters under the pretext of awarding him a cable contract.

He noted that one Jimoh Ogbo of Bako Kwali in Abuja was later arrested and had confessed and mentioned other members now at large.

The commissioner said seven suspected robbers used a lorry to block the Lagos/Ore expressway to rob a lorry loaded with 800 cartons of fish.

The lorry was later recovered by detectives in Onitsha, Anambra State, adding that two suspects had been arrested in connection with the robbery.
Eke added that three burglars were arrested after they stole foodstuff, handsets, laptops and other electronics.
On the two policemen shot by suspected robbers, the commissioner said they died in the course of duty.

According to him, the deceased were shot when they were deployed to the area following alleged robbery report.

Nairaland GeneralRe: My Experience With Racists. by StoneColdBiceps(m): 10:53pm On Nov 30, 2014
Amefrica:
Hi guys, due to what's going on in our world at the moment, I think it's hightime we started loving each other. I had an encounter with racist people some weeks ago..

My flatmate (a Nigerian) and I went to the mall about some weeks ago to get our winter clothings and all, after we got all paid, we went to the bus-stand to wait for the bus - we got to the stand and met a Canadian man probably in his mid to late forties waiting for the bus too, I said "Hello, how you doing today? Nice weather, isn't it?" The man just bone face, he didn't even answer, my flatmate looked at me and we just acted like it didn't happen.

What he did next was something that irritated me. Immediately he packed his bags and went to the stand opposite us to meet a Canadian woman sitting down too, we didn't give 2 hoots until they started saying some things we couldn't hear, laughing uncontrollably and pointing fingers right at us. My mate got infuriated and wanted to confront them I calmed him down, that they were just ignorant. Few minutes later, the bus came they got on the bus, me and my mate intentionally sat next to them, lo and behold they stood up and went way back to the end of the bus. I was just shaking my head!

For real, racism has got to stop. You have different wardrobes of many colours, can't God have humans with different colours too?

Tho, I've met so many respectful, kind, nice people here. When I told my female bestfriend who is a Canadian too, she asked me to describe them, that she wants to kick their a'ss, I just told her not to worry. I really wish racism could end for good. We have to learn to live and tolerate each other, irrespective of race, religion etc..

Giving Thanks: Here’s What Foreigners Find Amazing About America
Money Talks News 6 hrs ago
Stacy Johnson

Last year there was a question on Quora.com asking “What facts about the United States do foreigners not believe until they come to America?”

What followed was a compilation of things that make our country unique, provided by those who experienced it when they or their relatives came to the United States for the first time. What better day than Thanksgiving for a reminder of how lucky we are to live where we live.

I sifted through the extensive list of responses and pulled quotes, particularly those concerning money, that I found interesting, thought-provoking, charming or otherwise noteworthy. Not all are flattering, but here, in their own words, are things about America that foreigners find amazing:
We’ve got a big country
“Foreigners cannot believe how vast the country is. I am from the West Coast of the U.S., and my Italian relatives come here thinking they can visit me in Seattle, plus also see New York City, Miami, the Grand Canyon and Hollywood all in a week — by car.”
Our priorities are different
“At least until the 1980s in Guyana, dog food was not a thing that existed. Dogs got table scraps and mostly were outside. They are surprised by how in America, people actually avoid feeding their dog “people food.”

“There is almost no public transportation except in a few large cities. People actually have to have cars to get places. Cars are necessity, not luxury.”

“Bottles of water. For some reason, people carry huge bottles around. And the funny thing is, there’s a (refrigerated) water fountain in almost every corridor.”

“Biased media: Political bias, economic bias, geographic bias, etc. Clear misuse of freedom of speech. If all I hear is inaccurate news, my perception of the world will be grossly inaccurate. How hard is it to realize this?”

“The U.S. preserves its nature: I was thrilled to see how far ahead America is in preserving its beautiful nature. Absolutely terrific, kudos to you guys.”
We have some weird rules
“Coming from India, I found it amazing the way traffic behaved without any intervention from traffic policemen. Just everyone following the rules.”

“You’re not allowed to just cross the road when it’s safe? Crazy. You’d get nowhere in a city like London if you had to follow the rules you do in the U.S. No one believes you can get arrested for crossing the street.”

“An intern at work was saying he couldn’t go to the pub with us. I assumed it was because he was allergic to something or religious or something. It turns out he wasn’t 21. So you can vote, get married and serve in the military but can’t have a beer? Seriously?”

“The credit system in America will create a numerical value (credit score) to assess everyone’s financial fitness. No one know how the score is calculated but you need that to get a loan… or two… or three… and beyond. The irony: despite all this credit score stuff, 2008 Financial Crisis still happens.”
We’re heavily into ads
“My god how do people watch anything on TV in America without going insane? We watched half a movie, about an hour in length, but it took nearly two hours due to the adverts popping up every 8 or 9 minutes for 6 or 7 minutes. It wouldn’t have been so bad, but it was the same adverts EVERY TIME.”
We’re both friendly and trusting
“The niceness of strangers. Nicest people in the world, even in New York, which is supposed to be one of the rudest cities in the world.”

“In bars I’ve been in the situation where everyone hands over their credit cards and the bar staff keep track of how much everyone has spent and will hand you back a bill at the end of the night. This doesn’t happen anywhere else. In England you’d not trust the bar staff to do this at all – they’d probably steal your card.”

“Every cashier will greet you with “How are you today? You find everything okay?” with a smile, and you’re quite thrown off the first few times.”

“There is no culture of philanthropy in Russia and many view American philanthropy either as a waste of money or as some intricate plot to get some additional benefits.”

“That Americans make what they call “friends” in a matter of minutes — and ditch them just as fast.”

“How people feel it’s important to immediately know your first name and use it.”

“Two of my friends were visiting from Moscow, and they quickly grew to appreciate the concept of valet services. Voluntarily giving your car keys to a complete stranger is a risky proposition in many other countries.”
Some stuff is cheap, some expensive
“Petrol is around $9 a (U.S.) gallon in England. No one from England can believe how cheap fuel is in America. Stop complaining when it’s $3.50 a gallon.”

“The cost of health care in this country is insane. It seems that all aspect of health care is designed with ‘patient must be insured’ assumption – read: charge as much as possible. Any uninsured small procedure will leave a lasting impression in your financial health for many years to come.”
Family life is different
“Many Americans would rather stay in a hotel, or at least the Americans we know. Guyanese people (or at least my family) think it’s strange that you would pay money when you have relatives to stay with, even if you can afford it.”

“Many children, even in well to do families, work in fast food, car washes and do a lot of other things to get money and it is not an embarrassment.”

“You haven’t spoken to your family in more than a month?”

“The children here are allowed to do whatever they want, without corporal punishment, and are largely disrespectful to their elders. In Philippines, there were four generations of one family living under the same roof — sometimes the same bed. Here, children leave home and put their parents in nursing homes.”
We have it pretty darn good
“I’ve noticed that most Americans roughly have the same standard of living. Everybody has access to ample food, everybody shops at the same supermarkets, malls, stores, etc. I’ve seen plumbers, construction workers and janitors driving their own sedans, which was quite difficult for me to digest at first since I came from a country where construction workers and plumbers lived hand to mouth.”

“I don’t think there’s any such thing as a car seat in India. And parents carry their children mostly, most people can’t afford strollers here.”

“How well elderly live, even those on SSI and Medicaid. How many services are available to them.”

“My Russian in-laws were shocked when they found out that we get packages left on our doorstep and no one steals them. They were also shocked by buffets. My father-in-law told everyone back in Moscow, “No, really! You just pay to enter!”

“The typical supermarket has at least a hundred varieties of frozen pizza, 50 brands of trail mix, etc. I was just astounded by the different kinds of products available even at small gas station convenience stores.”

“The cashier gave me an empty cup when I ordered soda. The concept of virtually unlimited soda refills was alien to me, and I thought there was a catch to it, but apparently not.”

“Why individual houses are so large? We always get into discussion that house is not just a shelter, but also a manifestation of one’s financial achievements.”

“My garbage disposal eats better than most of the children in the world.”

Were any of these surprises a surprise to you?

dacoolvik:
I think its more of a cultural thing. In some cultures, singles or unmarried mothers cannot tie two wrappers. They think its for married women. As for me though unmarried, I wear what I feel comfortable in and even after marriage, I don't think I will change. My mum usually teases me and says that if I had my way, I would wear jeans for my traditional marriage.

Dat means dey r trying to bé defencive cos dey wear provocative and boobs exposing dress and all. *smiles* i love d boobs and will like to feeeeeeel it! Some will wear very micro mini skirt and wen eyes are prying dey will bé adjusting it like dey dnt kno its very very short, i tot u wonna go nakid! Wat an irony! Decency and decorum is wat any wise girl shld appear in becos guys are really tired of seeing provocative and scantily dressed women. We are looking for a "just bé normal and smell fine" chick dats all.

ayoola2002:
Ur story nd my almost d same, she sent me her acct details, imediately she sent her details i jst search d name on facebook nd found out dat av been chatting to 1 yeye ugly man.
Hehehehehe na so d facebook s(he-)maga
Come send me friend request, after i no answer and eventually did, d maga con dey tell me say she dey AAU, as i image to decipher AAU i told him ekpoma? S(he) said yes. And dat i shld send him recharge card N100 (supposedly to start d magathone with)...i'd earlier told he(r) to call me after s(he) refused to give me her number so i sent mine. S(he) told me her fone is bad and i told her "ur fone is bad how dyou now want to recharge if i send u credit?" S(he) ws just blabbing and ddnt respond...at dis time i gave him some crious warning dat if he ever chat me again i go give am e-back hand slap! Na so s(he) run and till tomorow she has not got back...

Advice to de-maga urself:
Do not accept friend request just any how and especially if u dont know d person.

Check d persons foto befor accepting; if its one or two fotos then dats a sign of magarita. Etc etc

....So i checkd d name d maga used to disguise and i saw an innocent and d real owner of d identity d she-maga used and i sent her a request but shes yet to accept...probably shes aware her identity had been cloned.i had wanted to tell her her identity is been used for magathon.
