Oooh! So sad, may his soul rest in peace

I'm so proud of u Nairalanders 4 standing up against religious bigotry. If we all Nigerians can demonstrate this trait. God bless Nigeria IJN!!! Amen!

Although it might seem risky and not advisable considering Nigeria as a people, but without Nuclear Power its almost impossible to be amongst d first 20 nations wit best power supply by 2020.

Continue 2 RIP Sam Loco. U were such a great Actor

Saw him on AIT not more than 2 weeks following politicians around to supervise projects in Bayelsa. Wish him luck whiChever way he threads...

nikkypearl: is toofan d story of d 2friends dat do toss coin?I can't remember d title of dat 1,very insteresting too

Datz Sholay!!! I really did cry then

I like her not withstanding n don't wanna jst assume all those allegations against her are true.... Until proven otherwise

If d party can pull together people of integrity and restrain from absorbing rogues who may want to join from other parties or otherwise, then it will succeed.

black_beau: But is the defrauder a learner? But kanu sef dull oh.it took him 7 years to discover a 1.4billion dollar fraud? Or is there something he isn't telling us?

No point being tribalistic. Evil could b resident in anyone's heart irrespective of tribe, religion or color, if u permit it. Learn 2 judge individuals based on their actions.

Gabriel_sylar: Its not good to be an illiterate....even if u haff cash...kanu can't even speak english well....so he is treated like a spare part seller

[color=#990000][/color]

U must definitely b an illiterate 4 such assumption and shamelessly attacking a gentle man's personality. Wat will u call d numerous football career experience he had wit top football corporate group? Such experience is enough education. Or must u go tru d 4 walls of a school b4 u bcom literate? Wat wud u call most of our graduates dat hav nothing 2 show 4 d number of academic certificates they hav gathered? I'm sure u fall in2 dis category 4 not being able 2 define appropriately Kanu literate status

prickly: dafuq, must you know everything about her cos she was a celebrity?

[color=#990000][/color]
Neither do I think is right 2 lead pple on, on misguided information.

Its really so sad. RIP

U guys are jst waking up frm slumber?

Its a welcome development. Let's just pray its successfully implemented. We should always lend support to a commendable effort because whether we like it or not govt must continue 2 embark on projects irrespective of personal interests.

If this news is anything to go by, then I must say that it is as funny as hell!
Oh! My dear country!
How did thou find thyself in this sh*t!

Well its a common practice almost everywhere. Virtually all events including awards where u see big personalities attend and sometimes give speeches are paid for in foreign currencies if they are coming outside d shores. This they use 2 give d event larger dan life status and also indirectly pull crowd 2 d events. For events like awards nitesa, d turn-up of des crowd 2 are taken advantage of 2 return back on investment 4 organising d shows

stan smart: una dey mak me laugh how can Nigeria pay d same amount with other countries? so do u tink Nigeria pays the same amount with Ghana for premiership rights? this is economics, stuffs lik media coverage, population and other factors determine d price. Just recently NBC acquired premiership rights in the USA for 250 million dollars and i tink Nigeria gets d rights for 10m dols so judging by ur own reasoning why is USA not paying the same amount as Nigeria. mak una open una brain tink.

[color=#990000][/color]

Hw dare u use USA charges in comparison wit Nigeria 4 d NBC 2 judge dis matter. Do u tink its all about population? Wat benefit or sense is there when u over charge a larger population wit low per capital earning? USA paid more in dis case nt jst because of her population bt her per capital earning and perhaps other factors. So if u must use this in dis argument, use it wisely

vislabraye: What are these African referees blowing?

[color=#990000][/color]

Why they no go blow anyhow against Nigeria, wen una no fall 4 d plot 2 sponsor the tournament tru ambiguous broadcasting rights. The plot seems pre-determined. No referee selected from Nigeria, so where u refuse 2 pay the lump sum 4 d broadcasting rights, d referees will make it difficult 2 win d competition which only carry a paltry sum of over 2m euros. God dey!!

That is nt exactly true. This is because most of activities that make it easy 4 pple to generate income and pay tax are directly or indirectly propelled by oil based revenue.

I don't believe the coming together of those parties will deliver Nigeria. It could only jst b a shift of colonialism from one party to another. More like cabal 2 cabal, which more will b like 4 their own selfish interests. What I will consider a real positive merger will b if credible individuals from those parties come together 2 form a big chunk of credible party, then Nigeria will get the change it clamours for

oily+Yoruba:
Simple disintegration will curb corruption

[color=#990000][/color]
That's very untrue! Each side will jst only succeed in having corrupt individuals heading each fraction, and mind u the corrupt heads of each fraction will still come 2geda 4 common goals. I think in as much as everyone has a role 2 play, corrupt persons caught shud b made scapegoats, severely punished, perhaps death sentence 2 serve as example 2 others prospective culprits. Additionally, leaders, highly placed individuals should show good examples. Nigerians are good followers

I tink d essence is beginning 2 unveil. The Minister is rite on point dis time. Quite articulating and reasonable.

5columnist: Bleeping nasty set of people. Two faced and liars in the name of God. They suck our economy dry and add no value to it, then turn around and attack the government of Gej. ACN power hungery southerners are supporting them because it only where their stomach lies they think off. That was why Awo betrayed the Igbos, now the Yorubas are ready to betray the south-south by ganging up with useless North that adds no value to this country.

[color=#990000][/color]

And which zone is the south-south running d government with @ present?

cogitoErgo: I tnk dis s anoda NL dilusion! Does dis document realy exist? Den y do muslims kill christians, burn and loot churches, especialy n northern nigeria? I tnk all most islamic leaders n northern nigeria are headng straigt fo hell, fo misguidng dere folowers

[color=#990000][/color]

U are still misguided, islamic extremists, particularly are guilty of these. And mind u pple commit sins; Christians, muslims, pagans, etc, and these sins can take place anywhere. Only God judges or His judgement upholds.

playah P: Janet loves the guy... I don't think money is the main motivation cos the bitttch got a lot of money too... They like each other!!

[color=#990000][/color]

Quite agree wit u, although her money is still not so comparable. But 4 goodness sakes, d guy is so young that most women her age will not have minded. So, I will say good investment in business and love or perhaps relationship

jechona: Guys please I want you to help me analyse my observations and tell me if technicians are better than engineers in Nigeria.

I have observed that theses days, majority of the contracts and small jobs are being given to technicians and rather than engineers. Some people come up with arguements that engineers are expensive, or are not experts, etc. Even in the ministries of works you will find less than a handfull of engineers, the rest are technicains and OND holders occupying positions that are meant for engineers, and as a result of this, most times when we have problems.

Engineers needs to come out and fight for their rights, we can't find any because we don't have the correct people on those seats. This has given birth to engineers suffering from lack of jobs and even those with jobs are being maltreated and underpaid.

Guys, do you know the sucking part of it all?

This evil is being done by older engineers who do not want to upgrade their knowledge and are afraid of loosing their positions to young and vibrant engineers. It now makes the situation look as if we don't have engineers in Nigeria or they are not capable.

Thank you.

[color=#990000][/color]
U are on point. Technicians and Engineers hav their clear lines of responsibilities. Normally, technicians are supervised by engineers who possess the general knowledge of d pursued goals or objectives of a task. An un supervised technician may hav d wrk done but incur other damages that may b more costly. I agree with u on the opinion of the older generation of engineers killing the profession, otherwise 2day engineers should hold their solid un-compromised ground in the structural dev. Of d country.

slimyem: I have heard her speak countless times.
Is it her slurring or her inappropriate use of words you wan talk?
I get television for house sir!
The last I heard live was when she returned from Germany and reporters were asking her questions and her comment..
"My husband love me I am.Some people think i have terminal disease..raider(as pronounced),I am hale and hearty"
You'll shake your head hearing her speak.

[color=#990000][/color]

U have 2 also put in2 consideration that when in front of a crowd, u are more than half intelligent, especially 4 a lot of us who hav stage fright and poor in public speaking. This doesn't usually reveal ones true level of intelligence and articulation.

achi4u: Only but SE

Obviously d southwest seem d most marginalised and its quite understandable.
What do u expect in a government where PDP is d majority and hence determines who gets wat,
And the southwest have not been able to deliver 4 PDP in its zones

Richiez: nice try bro, although you made some some mistakes especially at the point where you took log of both sides. e.g it ought to be log(x+y)= log5 and not logx + logy = log5. but i must admit, you did a very good job.

here's another approach;

x + y = 5.......(1)
x^x + y^y =31.......(2)

from eqn(1), x=5-y, hence we substitute this value for x in eqn(2).
(5-y)^(5-y) + y^y = 31.......(3)
now, we have reduced the problem to what value of y that must be inserted in eqn (3) to obtain 31.

a thorough look at eqns (1) & (2) shows that the values of x & y must be positive integers within the range 0<x<5 and 0<y<5
clearly, y=3
i.e (5-3)^(5-3) + 3^3
2^2 + 27
4+27=31
now that we have established that y=3, we shall substitute the value of y in eqn(1) to get x
recall that x+y=5
therefore; x+3=5 or x=5-3=2
hence, x=2 when y=3

[color=#990000][/color]

This solution is more appropriate. Log(x + y) nt = logx + logy, as earlier observed.
The first solution gave same answers with later but applying d approach in another question can b fatal

take dat: I am less concern if he has personal issues with GEJ but all he said was the truth. He has refused to be in bondage so that Truth won't be in prison unlike some hungry self serving groups who only seek relevance to have their stomach filled while those whom they claim to represent continue to live in perpetual bondage!

[color=#990000][/color]

Really, the presidency should consider his allegations and make amends. He has spoken the truth notwithstanding his personal beef.
