[quote author=lastpage post=43986959]I am forced to quote just one of the many responses, blaming and insulting the woman involved in this fracas ........ and it makes me wonder whether the QUALITY of intelligence of the average Nigerian has sunk so low that all of these responses above mine, fail to comprehend what really transpired? Read the part l quoted above, from the original story an[b]d let us reason on it together:[/b] 1.) The women was on her side of the road - So, by LAW, she was therefore not obstructing traffic. 2.) She was asked to REVERSE... [color=#990000] and she COMPLIED by Reversing - Shows she is a reasonable and responsible person 3.) After five Cars passed , she also felt the need to continue her own journey - This also is perfectly "legal" and within her rights. 4.) She moved on but the same people coming from the other side, manoeuvred into her lane AND REFUSED TO STOP FOR HER TO GO! - This is definitely the cause of the ensuing traffic jam (Dont forget, this woman has reversed once and allowed them to use her lane... but they wont do the same for her!) 5.) Officer came, without knowing the genesis of the problem (nor having the intelligence to ASK WHAT HAPPENED!), asked her to REVERSE, A SECOND TIME! She refused! - Now, we should ask whether this woman has a right to also go wherever she was going or whether the other people using her lane are the only ones "in a hurry" and cant wait for her to pass, when she had waited for them to pass, despite being on her own side of the road!! [/color] Any sensible person who had driven on Nigerian road knows that "Most" Nigerians generally lack courtesy! If someone extends a courtesy to you (by waiting for you to use her lane, while she waits), courtesy demands that after a few cars have passed, you also WAIT and allow the person who extended that courtesy to you, TO ALSO PASS! But in the "typical Nigerian fashion", they dont give a hoot! I am sure this woman too was in a hurry to go somewhere BUT SHE STILL WAITED FOR SOME CARS TO PASS! Why cant they also wait for her to also pass? That Major is a disgrace to himself and the military! When the woman moved and she was blocked by oncoming vehicles, should an intelligent military officer not have approached her POLITELY and ask her WHY she thinks she should not WAIT? If he does that, l am sure the woman would have told him that she has been waiting but they would not stop to allow her to also pass. In typical "Zombie-fashion", he proceeded to TEAR GAS HER! QUESTION: Will this military officer WAIT for people to pass? If he will wait, will he reverse a second time, after allowing some to pass and they wont stop for him? I bet you he wont. I have waited (out of courtesy to other road users, at a narrow road) and l counted FORTY VEHICLES pass while l was "flashing them", to allow me to pass so l can also go my way but they refused! Infact, everyone behind me started abusing me for not "putting my head" and blocking them-off! Eventually, l did put my vehicle (knowing what would happen next) while flashing the oncoming vehicle to stop. He never did and came to confront me with his vehicle. (That is exactly what happened in this case also!) Funnily, when everywhere became blocked and l asked the driver of the vehicle confronting me why he did not WAIT, when l have been waiting in the last ten minutes, he said "Why cant you wait too"? I was shocked! This is why l said "Most Nigerians lacked courtesy". I dont want to give this woman any CREDIT because "she is FEMALE". That is an insult to women who are worth their salt. But that officer, instead of behaving like a trained, educated, gentleman, he behaved like an animal that most military men are (apologies to the extremely descent ones amongst them). Why Tear-gas the woman? Why call two additional military recruits to beat her up? IF she refused to reverse based on the fact that she has done so once/earlier, what does it cost the Major to ask the people on the other side to also reverse so she can go and everyone can go? Why would someone "make way" for you on their side of the road and you think its okay to make the person wait endlessly.... withiut extending the courtesy to her as well? Those of you insulting and criticizing the woman need to understand what happened and ask yourself honestly: Wont l do same thing? I for one, will do exactly what she did...... and that Major will bite more than he can chew because "It is because of the 'mad man outside', that we keep even "more mad" person within/inside the compound" (An adage/proverb) I hope the woman knows how to go about it, that Major may be demoted after a court-marshal. He has gone beyond his remit....... even with his own wife by his side! ![]() Lastpage! BTW: The BEDC would be preventing the "course of Justice" by hiding the name of that officer because he came to their office to transact business. Maybe they also need to bear the brunt. [/quoteGod bless you plentiful |
It is well.. .... God rest her soul, Amen |

Been reading updates from this thread since yesterday,didn't want to comment cos i know the tears will start rolling.....but anyway.... My Mother Have so many fond memories of her but the one that really touched my heart was when I completed my 2years diploma program and decided to pursue my bsc in the same course. My cousemates' names were on the admission list but I couldn't find my name, I went home devastated to break the news to her. The next day, my sweet mother followed me to the school to know the cause of the omission only to be told that all my diploma courses results hv not been recorded. She had to go with me to see all my lecturers,and their reason was that I didn't buy their textbooks so they decided not to send my scores. My heart broke when I saw my mother weeping and telling them that it wasn't my fault,that she couldn't afford the money for the textbooks because of the many responsibilities she was carrying at the time coupled with her ill health. That day one of the lecturers (a female) adopted me as her daughter n I never had any issues till I graduated from the university. My mother till date remains the only human i literally worship, she trained 3 of us singlehandedly with a meagre salary of #23,000 as a civil servant. Unfortunately, she died immediately I graduated, leaving me with my younger ones to take care of 9 years ago A times, I steal a moment to cry for her when I'm facing a hard time and funny enough,i get better afterwards. RIP Maami!!! |

Op, my son had the same problem few months back, took him to the hospital n he was given some drugs that did little or nothing to improve his health, it was a doctor friend that advice me to get the child Augmentine suspension, ors and zinc tablets . He got better within hours n up til now,no more stooling and vomitting. Oh BTW, my son is 3,so if u are getting the drugs,u have to tell the pharmacist your baby's age. He will be fine in Jesus name! |
