THESE COUNTRIES ARE LANDLOCKED. WHY ARE YORUBAS CONCERNED ABOUT US?

Swaziland
Switzerland
Hungary
Armenia
Austria

Switzerland's case is different o. It has 3 ports on the banks of the Rhine river which connects it directly to the sea. Its own river is bigger than all the rivers in our own side of Nigeria.

What does that have to do with Port Harcourt wharf?

So you're trying to say that if the Biafra protesters went to Gwari land and some Gwari people joined them in demanding Abuja be part of the Biafra plan, that would work?

Oga, use your inner church mind check am critically, nah. If the people whose ancestral land, the Port-harcourt wharf was built on are the Okrikas, does it mean that the Igbo now own the Port-harcourt wharf or the waterside??

And nobody has said that the Gwari people of Abuja are likely to join the Biafra protest, because there is no basis for them to do so. You too, check am nah. on what basis, would the Gwari join the protests in Abuja? That is not just possible. What would be the basis of their joining? What reason would they give for doing so??

ezeaguisforever:
The Ikwere part isn't near the waterside? Is that what you read on wikipedia or is that the reality of the situation. Where were the Igbo denying Ikwere when Biafra protesters demonstrated in Port Harcourt?

Maazi, if you know Port-harcourt waterside very well, you will know that it is the Okrika people that stay there. The Ikwerre are mostly found at Diobu, and the environs. The fact that the Igbo demonstrated in Port-harcourt does not mean the Okrika and Ikwere have renounced their own identity and ethnicity. Did the Abuja indigenes automatically become Igbo, when the pro-Biafra group demonstrated there?

Uncle, check it critically nah.

sleekdot:
The indigenous Abuja people too didnt fight pro-Biafra protesters that must mean Abuja is part of Biafra

Hehehe....I don talk say I no go laugh today, but...

ezeaguisforever:
Port Harcourt is whose land?

It is partly Okrika/partly Kalabari, and the upland side which is not even near the waterside is inhabited by the Ikwere people, who keep telling everyone that they are not Igbo, but Ikwerre. Igboland is composed of the 5 south-East states and Anioma region of Delta.

If you doubt me, ask HopeAtHand or TonyeBarcanister to explain better to you.

tonychristopher:
When I heard that Onitsha thing ...I was like what the fvck is wrong with these guys and they forget that in al the states in east we have onicha

They said zik said so...I asked them is zik the igwe of Onitsha or custodians

They are terrible

Is it not the small Benin that biafran invaded with 24 hours during mid west invasion

Was it not the same small Benin whose local citizens sent your soldiers packing, less than a month after the invasion??

adeaks:
Sanusi should give it a rest. As a royal father and an educated man he has to watch his utterances. Why should Buhari jail Diezani without a competent court declaring her guilty. If na like that then Gej should also have jailed Sanusi at the time he was unceremoniously removed as CBN governor.
No one is saying she is blameless but Buhari is not the court. Everything remains in the realm of allegations until she is pronounced guilty.

I concur...with your concurrence! Every suspect is innocent, until proven guilty.

sleekdot:
And Nigeria would sit and allow you to dredge its water ways? Siddon there make trouser dey wear you

The only water Biafra go see na from rain , well, river Niger and Gutters unless you get people to supply you enough pure water from the Southwest

Uncle, please I am not Igbo. So please direct your answer to those from that area. Thank you.

sleekdot:
1. Is Port Harcourt part of Biafra?

2. Does Port Harcort have direct access to the ocean?

Its like asking: Can ship get to Ikeja? Is it through the gutter or through 3rd mainland

I don't know the answer to question 1, but I know the answer to question 2. Port-harcourt has direct access to the ocean. A sea port was built there, years ago.

MaziOmenuko:
That some branches of the sea passed thru igboland doesn't mean Igbo land isn't landlocked. Those minor inflowing waters can't sustain a ship to sail in; at most a boat but not a ship. Shallow waters are good for fishing and sand-quarring, that's the only economic activity it can support.

Hope you did geography at school.

Alright, as long as the river that flows through Igbo land can support a flying boat, everyone will be okay. At least they can still dredge those rivers to take pontoons, even if it does not take a ship.

ezeaguisforever:
Ships can't get to Port Harcourt?

Erm...is Port-harcourt part of Igbo land?

jhydebaba:
This thing should be free most especially for nairalanders, Oga Jarus take note.

BTW, the lunch? Na akpu n vegetables with assorted meat shey?

Nah! At 2k per head, it is likely to be one pack of small chops and one can of coke. Won't they pay for the hall??

Wow!! How inspiring! May God grant her many more years of good health and sound mind. Amen.

IGBOPRINCE:
biafrans re too intelligent bro, they ve their maps and masterplans. You may not know but they have drawn their map.
When God wanted the israelite out of egypt, there was no plans set before them , but God knows that, when they get to the bridge, they will surely cross it. The same thing happens to south korea,pakistan and eritrea. They re surviving and happy.
Meanwhile, With faith the israelite left egypt while other israelites decided to stayed in egypt because they were afraid of starting from the scratched.
in today world,the israelites as a nation is something to be proud of.
Biafrans have their own faith too and with time sir, we shall get there and I will not assured you that biafra will become a place of heaven/london if they secedes from nigeria,but with time we shall be better of, than merging us with the cesspit called nigeria.

Your faith is remarkable... But please know that most people would feel comfortable seeing the works that have been brought into reality by such faith.

Thank you sir.

Switzerland is she not a landlocked country.?

Illiteracy at its best

]

Um...I hope you realise that this same Switzerland has 3 ports??

As for switzerland, It sits on the bank of a very large River called the Rhine which connects it directly to the sea, and it has 3 ports on the bank of the Rhine.

All three parts of the Port of switzerland – Kleinhüningen, Birsfelden and Muttenz-Au – are well connected to the European road and rail networks, and offer optimal conditions for the establishment of reliable and efficient supply chains.

KLEINHÜNINGEN
On the right bank of the Rhine, Kleinhüningen is composed of docks I and II and a turning basin. Kleinhüningen has three container terminals, whose development is still growing. Kleinhüningen also serves as platform for the transshipment and storage of dry bulk goods such as steel, aluminium and other metals, as well as for liquid fuels.

BIRSFELDEN
Birsfelder is on the left bank of the Rhine and is specialized in the handling and storage of steel and other metals while being connected to production sites. In addition, this part of the port is also used to transship other dry goods, containers and petroleum products.

MUTTENZ-AU
Located on the left bank, Muttenz-Au is the area where particular liquid fuels are transshipped and stored. Moreover, this part of the port is used for edible oil, fertilizer, clay, grain and other dry goods. It is specialized in the handling of heavy freight.

The Swiss Rhine ports are a major asset for the country and the region. The Rhine connects Switzerland to the sea.

Waterways are not only an economic asset for companies, but also for individuals. In Europe, there are indeed some 500 million tons conveyed through waterways, with a traffic volume of 100 billion tonne-kilometers. http://www.citizenports.eu/partners/port-of-switzerland/

MissGdope:
Those "smart" guys you know are probably like you and if they are then they're dumb so they went for dumb women. It's sickening to know that you think that a woman must be in a lower level of intelligence than you to make you feel like the world's best thing. Why tf is it her job to do that?? I honestly can't believe that backwards thinking he - goats like you still exist.

Ah, okay o! Smart women do not use vile epithets on others, neither do they engage in name-calling when trying to get their points across. No smart man would put up with a woman whose manners are suspect, no matter how smart she claims to be. And looking at your comments up here, it is so clear that the points made by many smart men who were among the respondents on this thread, were totally lost on you.

This is one of the comments that captures the whole mindset of many smart men, in a clear, succinct manner:

ogaprime:
Nobody is smarter, we only proof prove to be smarter

Op is not talking about a "dumb" woman here

Its a wise woman that's smart that reads colossians 3:18 and proverbs 14:1 and understands it and makes use of it and its also a foolish woman that's smarter that reads the same two verses and understands but discards it.

A wise-smart woman guides, directs and give options to her man and then leaves him to think and make his decisions but a smarter-foolish woman will drag her man to accept only her decisions like she is also the "captain of the ship"

Guys don't want to compete with ladies they are in a relationship with. Its better ladies use their smartness to move the relationship forward and not use it compete with the "head of the relationship" so as to be the equal "head of the relationship"

Read, study, listen and learn! Peace.

MissGdope:
nah mate I won't be in that position because fortunately, not all guys are as dumb as you.

Alright, o! I shall bookmark this page (as well as your response) for posterity. Most smart guys I know, did not end up marrying smart shrews. They married women who made them feel like the world's best thing, after the aurora borealis...

MissGdope:
Who gives a hoot what the OP is talking about tho? The truth is the truth whether you and the op like it or not. Women ain't bowing down. You're not gods

Ok, we don hear. I hope that by the time you clock 35 and are still single, with no suitor in sight...you would still hold fast to this conviction.

AVRecruit:
not justifying adultery or fornication but if his own wife was giving im sure he wont go outside

I beg leave dat side. There are many men whose wives are at their beck & call, ready to make love with them, but it still doesn't stop such men from looking outside. Many of those women have been schooled on how to take care of a man, especially when it comes to the aspect of the marital bed. Ask Calabar babes. You wan try? Yet, a number of such men are still unsatisfied with these fine chics at home.

One of my friends told me the other day: "how can a man be eating 'amala' at home, every day? Once in a while, he would long for the taste of fufu..." I just replied him, "Don't worry, I will let your wife know you called her 'amala', and that you have gone to seek for 'fufu' outside your home."

eyinjuege:
Smart women definitely know how to snag a guy. He wouldn't even know what hit him, but will find out he's already on the way to the altar.

A smart woman will also know how to make it seem like the proposal is all the guy's idea.

Nah!! It is the dumb ones that get the guys, fast! They have already decoded his amorous desires before he opens his mouth, and can relate with his neanderthal tendencies. So you see them hardly going contrary to the guy's wishes. All you will be hearing is "honey, what do you think?" Or "...oh, yeah baby, I agree." And the chap thinks he has gotten an obedient, docile wife material he can take home to Mama. A biddable girl who will not question his excesses, and will always be ready to fall in line with his wishes and commands.

But the smart girls? Hai! When you ask her why she works late, or why she hasn't considered switching jobs because of the stress at work, or ask her why not work smarter instead of harder, she would recite the unemployment statistics for you, roll her eyes and tell you her mum didn't send her to school, to just give up at a challenging job or quit when things get hard. Okay, o! Meanwhile, this same girl is over 30, single and unmarried.

For some of them, their careers are a means of validation and they take on the most demanding assignments which stretch into ungodly hours, while they make the fatal mistake of putting promising relationships with the opposite sex, on the back burner.

It took my aunt several years to learn this lesson. She got her BSc, then capped it with a Masters' degree. She later went on to enrol for Ph.D. Along the line, her boyfriend who had been dating her from her 300-level, dumped her and ended up marrying an OND holder.

Today, whenever she meets any suitor she carefully refrains from mentioning her MSc & Ph.D. We have taught her to act like a helpless babe, and stroke the guy's ego, so that the relationship can get to the altar. So far, it seems to be working. The new chap in her life is taking her to his village, to meet his mum over Christmas....

charles009:
Forgive me folks, Things are really getting out of hands. I met an Ex about three months ago who is equally married with kids, just like myself.

We talked about a difficult task she had to execute and afer a prolonged plea. I offered to help. After work I went over to her place(she is on transfer) and in a few hours the work was done.

Now the devil struck, She served me vodka and fried plantain and the rest is history. I will now go from work straight to her house, Infact last night i left the house very late just to have sex with her. My preety wife keeps wondering when I have turned a crawler.

The truth is I want to stop seeing her, But I just cant.

Please folks, Whats the way forward. I dont wanna wreck my home.

This is no fiction, this is very real.

Hmmn...please drop your -ex's home address, right here. We need to thoroughly investigate that substance she put in the fried plantain she served you that night, along with the vodka. Then, we would know what kind of antidote to prescribe, so that you can get out of her clutches.

No be ordinary eye be dis one. Just pray that the antidote works, because if it fails na 3 days dry fasting you go do. I also know a nearby church where deliverance sessions are conducted, for these kind of cases. Drop yah email, so I can send you the address...

Online medical journal/blog . Sort of expert(s) meet the public theme. Thanks for your interest.

Oh, okay I think I get it... a place where people talk about their aches and pains, and a doctor tries to proffer solutions. I am not a medical person, but I have visited several hospitals in the course of my existence. Had athsma at a very early age, and suffered from it for over 17 years, before it came to an end. Thank God! So I have seen quite a bit of the good, bad and ugly side of hospitals and doctors.

In my spare time, I also volunteer in a few hospitals to assist folks I know. I've worked for a magazine in the past, before I switched careers. I'll send you a PM soon.

By the way, are you a doctor?

emonkey:
I have not done this before so I want you to guide me by mentioning a figure. This is not a profit making thing though and it is more a hobby thing for the eventual user of the article.

Tell me more! Is it going to be an online medical journal or a blog? Or is it going to be in print?

HeartRobber:
She said that the guy is her Boss friend, that she has no relationship with him

That "the guy walk up to her and ask her to allow him to host her birthday

So, she now come and tell me, seeking for my approval

Haba, my guy! Na 'jazz' di babe use for you??!
Na wetin she and the bloke yarn reach dat level, wey make di bloke come dey talk say im wan sponsor your babe's party? What the guy is doing, is just to deploy his arsenal to the next level of toasting your babe, and she is sitting there like a mugu, lapping it up and coming to seek for your approval. What kind of dirty approval is that one? What does she take you for?

Ah, omo shine yah eye o!

Ah, if na dat one I get plenty of health-related stories, o! How much do you pay per article? Just curious...

hubcruz:
there are no issues with the car...but sorry owner changed price today to 3.5m last.

i am still working on the price.

thanks

Erm...when the price was 3.35 million, the owner did not get a buyer. If he had gotten one, the car would have been sold by now. Instead of giving a slight discount, to make it more attractive to prospective buyers....he now decides to increase the price to 3.5 million naira. Are you all seeing what I am seeing, or is it just my imagination that something does not add up here?

opinjo:
The car is in lagos.Thankfully Shola13 has at least seen the car and met with the owner. aleshmotors offered to assist in marketing of cars i have for sale.which isnt bad since marketing in its essence basically involves networking and his network is way different from mine. Its all in a bid to reach a larger audience. His mistake is saying its located in abeokuta.its very misleading and i will bring it to his notice now. Thanks for the enquires.the car is in perfect condition with nothing to fix.its well maintained my the owner.Thanks for the issues raised will put to check now.
Please lets continue to investigate properly before going into business with anyone.

Thanks for getting back to us with the facts. I truly wish you luck in your sales, and I hope you get a good buyer at a great price before Christmas.

MurderX:
Tequila and Shola13 thank you for proper due dilligence on this transaction. It is impressive, lets work to avoid stories that touch even though the OP has presented himself humbly all this while. I commend the respectful manner that the OP has conducted himself in advertising this car, we hope to hear from him soon.

People can't be too careful, especially with products offered for sale online. Thanks for your observation. I hope more individuals will share any information they get publicly, to make it safer to do business on NL. We should all be our brothers' keepers.

Na wetin do di motor?? Make I check whether na dis motor I go take do Christmas. Talk now, before I spend di money wey dey my hand....

What caused the discolouration of your teeth? Was it smoking? Or was it caused by tetracycline intake? If it was due to tetracycline, then it means the dentine itself is discoloured, and not just the enamel. A thousand baking sodas and lemon juice would not work in this case. You might need to undergo cosmetic dentistry and you may be advised to do bonding.

Kindly see a qualified dentist and/or an orthodontist to advise on you on further options.

Read up more about it here:

Discoloured teeth is a common complaint affecting many people and may vary in severity depending on the cause, the condition of the teeth, age, wear & tear and simple genetics! In many cases simple tooth whitening is the answer, but sometimes the teeth are not only discoloured, but worn or chipped as well. In this case composite bonding or porcelain veneers or combinations of whitening, bonding and veneers are sometimes the best solution.http://www.advanceddentistry.co.uk/problems-we-solve/discoloured-teeth/
