They say prayer conquereth all things.

Check out this photo of a Nigerian soldier embarking on a prayer before a battle with Boko Haram.

I always feel dis soft spot of concern wenever I see pictures of my friends that are soldiers.. I pray for them often, even though the soldiers I meet on the roads do harrass me some times. But then, soldiers are there at war with BH, just for our sake too,, and they are my friends or colleagues to my friends.

Are you sure that Politics Section of Nairaland can survive Buhari's regime.?

It would be good that the next National Census should take accurate records of the Following...
.......
1. State, L.G.A, and Place of Origin.
2. State, L.G.A, and Place of Birth.
3. State, L.G.A, and Place of Residence.,, purpose of residency, duration of residence., e.t.c. (also, the states that the persons have lived in the past, with their durations)
4. Information about the direct relatives of the populace that are living abroad, their country of residence, purpose of living abroad, and the duration they have been living abroad.
5. Full information about non-nigerians, their country of origin, whether they are also nigerian nationals, purpose of living in nigeria, and their duration of living in Nigeria..
6.. And many more data....
.......
These informations are all very important.
It would help in the study of the Nigerian economy, and in the study of the pattern of dispersion of the citizens., so as to ascertain how many people from one state that are living in another state..
If the data is complete, someone can state accurately, for instance, the percentage of Anambra people that makes up the whole population of Enugu State, and vice-versa.

3 pages and no one spotted the gbagaun "means"

Now u don spot am, oya, take dis pen | go correct am.

The thing you described as TAKEN,, is the same thing as what the ladies refer to as SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP.

Check out the campaign pattern of americans.. They go to campaign grounds to answer questions raised by the citizens.. They don't go there to recite over-painted manifesto.. A manifesto that is too good to be true would not survive the questions that the citizens would raise, and it would be a serious point against the candidate. So, they have to be careful in what they are promising.. Only in Nigeria would canditates try to win votes by over-painted promises.. And quoting outrageous figures, just to win votes.. A debate is an avenue with which to test the adequateness of the manifesto

I will listen to de debates.. And only after the debates that I would decide.. I beleive that it would be the time the parties would trash-out all propaganda and set all records straight.. It would be the time they would all explain the things they have been blowing in their campaigns with respect to what is obtainable in our country.. It would be the time we see all of them the way they truly are.. It would be the only platform where all the parties and their aspirants would come together and be answering questions to issues face-to-face, and no more casting insults.. Even if they decide to stoop so low as to casting insults at the debates,, it would still be "face-to-face"..

There are many Nigerians who are waiting to hear the "Presidential Debates"- where the whole 14 Presidential Aspirants and their running mates and their parties would come together and debate on their manifesto and plans for the election and beyond..
Yess.. There are so many of us..
These nigerians, as you may know, are not listening to the bloated poetry that are constantly being recited at the political campaigns, neither do they listen to any propaganda being peddled by any of the parties.
They are just neutral, and are patiently waiting for the Presidential Debates before they can decide whom to vote for..
These nigerians are expecting that very tough "issue-based" questions would be asked at the debates; and that it would only take "aspirants with good plans for the nation", and aspirants that can quickly come up wit solutions at critical situations to answer such unprecedented tough questions..
These Nigerians are not interested in whatever questions that might be asked at the debates. They are only interested in the answers that the aspirants would provide.
I am one of such nigerians..
So, if any candidate or party misses out of the debates, it means that they won't be considered by these set of "neutral" and "yet-to-decide" Nigerians.
We the yet-to-decide Nigerians would consider only the candidates that we heard.. Yes.. We would only consider the candidates that would boldly come out to defend their manifesto at the debates..
To the best of our knowledge and by what we have already read about the debates, the debates are supposed to be issue-based and not propaganda-driven..
We are going to vote for the candidate whose answers to questions moved us the most.

Let him swear an affidavit that he has the certificate naa.. Chickena #CaseClosed.

U are just busy here describing my babe.. Ok naa.. No-Comments-Yet

So,, if she couldn't survive dat small yabbing,, how she for wan take survive even one-quater of wetin PEJ survived.?

prettyjo:
yes,I still remember you.am in final year now

Dat's wonderful. I am following u now. Follow me back dear.

shedyman:
As is customary of me, I attended Dunamis Int'l, Abuja today, the 25th day of January 2015.

I parked my car at the garage created for that purpose. One of the ushers in grey suit menacingly approached me and sternly warned me not to park there. Cars were parked beside me without any warning issued to the other drivers.

I had to look around so as to be sure I was not missing anything, after doing this, I told the usher from the pit of hell that the spaces between my car and surrounding vehicles was wide enough for entry and exit (true to my word, the cars that were in the garage when I parked had moved out and other cars had parked in their stead).

At the close of service, I was shocked to discover my tyres had been maliciously deflated. Instinctively, I had to look around for the usher from hell who took offence that I had the audacity to challenge the reasonableness of his instructions, I was not surprised to find he was no where to be found.

Consequently, I approached one of the ushers on ground to make a harmless complaint, I was dumbfounded when he threatened he was going to beat me up if I don't take my car in the state of its deflated tyres out of the garage. I dared him, but sensing I was a little enlightened he exercised restraint.

These two attitudes I experienced today got me wondering what the church of today is turning into. Are these really the signs of end time? If workers in church put up these attitudes (albeit unjustly), can it be said that the preaching that comes up from the pulpit is in anyway purging society of evil, looting, corruption, prostitution and malice?

Whilst I respect the grace and will continue to respect the grace and anointing of the Senior pastor of the church, Dr. Paul Eneche, I wonder what a christian whose faith is still shaky will do in my circumstance.

This post is actually a clarion call for pastors to be wary of the character that surrounds them, because these workers are the image the public has of the church.

You went to church, and the usher in the church told u wat to do, then, u labelled him "usher from the pit of hell".. And u carefully told de story and screened off how u made him personally angry by the way u responded to instructions.. May God Help you.. But you have to meet the head pastor of that church, and let him pass the judgement.. And if I should advise u, don't influence the pastor's judgement with some bursts of anger which you might start to exhibit..

rubey:
A man shouldn't be the one to fuel my car, I can do that with my allowance

You see that spirit with most independent ladies... Strong-headed.. They hardly listen. They argue a lot, and most times, it seems like nagging.

You can guess who dis is naa. Am fine oo.. U don go service by now, sheey.?

prettyjo:
yes.how far naa?

killuminati:
Can u imagine

I've been thinking..
If this same Fayose guy decamps to APC, he would become a saint, and anything he says against Jonathan becomes correct

Can the so-called security guard against illness and heart-attack.?? Sip Some Brain my dear

abu12:
Buhari need tight security now, since fayose and pdp said buhari will die very soon

My dear, is ur name Judith or D-Lady by any means at-all.??

prettyjo:
#fact#.
the way some girls paint their faces is quite alarming

This was exactly what came to my mind when I saw the chat.. It was just over-bloated.. Abike is now trying to put Buhari at fault again for over-spending during his time.

NavierStokes:
Trying to make us believe that nigeria was spending 1 billion dollars on defense in 1984. This woman must think we are very stupid. I wouldn't even bother to verify this nonsense.

Answer: Nigeria will change as from 2027 onwards...

Please, we need the one for men. Sincere advices oo. Not yabbings

I created a thread on how to catch guys who only want your body, and guys asked for a counter thread. So ive decided to do it.

I actually typed this list before, and copied it, but i dont know how it disappeared, i cried coz to start typing it all over again is so hard

note, i made this up, i didnt copy from any blog. So bloggers back off!

- any girl girl that appears local and poorly dressed are actually the real golddiggers! Cos they are ready to make money in anyway possible.

- she always spend money too much. Watch closely, any girl who spends money a lot is like to be a golddigger! This is one of the major ways to know them. They spend a lot because they know that they have maga/magas (sugar daddies) that provide the money whenever they want. But a girl who works and sweats for her money will never spend it like that.

- she always tells you her financial problems. When a girl is always telling you the financial problems shes going through, then she is likely to be a money sucker! She never complains of anything else, except money.

-she always want to go shopping with your money. When you complain, she says that she has to look good so that you wont leave her for another girl. Na so!

- she doesnt wanna meet your relatives or parents because shes not spending long time with you, and dont wanna make a bad name.

- most ladies who want your money are usually the ones who fake shyness and quietness. You will never know what they are upto. But the talkatives are usually caught because they can talk too much and they wont know when they talk what they shouldnt.

- 60% of golddiggers are very intelligent, and 40% are not. So be very careful and extra smart with them cos they know what they are doing

- she always ask for money. This is a direct appraoch. Its not bad to ask for money from ur man, but dont do it always or u will be labeled a golddigger. A girl who always asks for money..hmmm think twice about her.

- she is ready to do anything for money. Watch her well. Her eyes shine when ever she sees or hears money, and she is very smart and quick when it comes to money.

- she is never interested in your life or what you have to say or share with her. She doesnt act like your companion, but when the issue of money comes up, shes more than available. Such ladies should be avoided

- she steals. When you catch her stealing or trying to eat your money by decieving you, my dear brother, run away from her like shes the devil!! Cos if you still stay with her after she must have sweet talked you, you are on ya own!

- golddiggers are extremely sexy and can make you agree to what you wouldnt normally agree to if you were in your right senses. Some are even witches!!!

- shes extremely jealous when you look at other women. Trust me on this one.

- she doesnt like sharing any of her things, especially money!

- she is too secretive!

- she always goes for high class stuff. Now theres a difference between a woman who goes for high class stuff with her earned or inherited money, and a woman who goes for high class stuff with a man's money!

These are all i can remember. I hope they help guys
no insalts! Add more to the list!

That fact that you produced a counter thread to your own thread says a lot.
And you tried to be sincere enough.
Keep it up dear

THE APC GUBERNATORIAL FLAG-BEARERS:
1. SOKOTO - Aminu Waziri Tambuwal (former PDP)
2. KEBBI - Abubakar Atiku Bagudu (former PDP)
3. KATSINA - Aminu Bello Masari (former PDP)
4. KANO - Umar Abdullahi Ganduje (former PDP)
5. KADUNA - Malam Nasir El-rufa'i (former PDP)
6. JIGAWA - Alh. Abubakar Badaru (former PDP)
7. BAUCHI - Barr. Muhammad Abubakar (former PDP)
8. GOMBE - Alh. Inuwa Yahya (former PDP)
9. NIGER - Abubakar Bello Sani (former PDP)
10. ADAMAWA - Umar JibrillaBindow (former PDP)
11. PLATEAU - Mr Simon Lalong (former PDP)
12. BENUE - Dr Samuel Ortom (former PDP)
13. TARABA - Aisha Jummai Alhassan (former PDP)
14. RIVERS - Dakuku Perterside (former PDP)
15. IMO - Rochas Okorocha (former PDP)
16. ENUGU - Okey Ezea (former PDP)
17. ABIA - Dr Nyerere Anyim (former PDP)
18. EBONYI - Dr Steve Egbo (former PDP)
....
NOTE ALSO THAT more than 60% of the State & National Assembly Candidates are also all former PDP members!
Let me not also forget to state that AUDU OGBE, APC's chieftain was a former Chairman of PDP (2001-2005).
Do I also need to mention Atiku Abubakar? Or Rotimi Ameachi who was a PDP Speaker of Rivers state Assembly for 8 Years then Governor for 7 years?
The list goes on and on.
.
If PDP wasted and stole our time and resources for the past 16 years, my dearest citizens, the names listed above and many more are part of these bunch of criminals who stole and wasted these our resources.
They were and are part of the people who lied and lie to us.
.
My people, YES! We want change, but if I am a thief in Agbada, would wearing a Nnyika make me not to be a thief? Would I stop being a thief because I changed gang?
Some of us will always argue that the states controlled by these thieves are better than the others, but let me ask: Did Ameachi do all he did for Rivers just in the past 1 year that he became a member of the APC? Was it last year that APC was formed that the transformations in KANO took place or began? Was it APC's Government that did the stuffs in IMO?
.
Dearest Citizens, for 16 years we have been under the PDP's Umbrella. Yes.. But which person in this APC has not been in the corridor or close to the corridor of power in these past 16 years?
We revolved & continue to revolve around the same group of people since Independence, yet we seem to be comfortable with it.
If they're saints as they claim, we wouldnt be where we are today.
.
Do I need to start mentioning their names and portfolios?
If I can't mention all, at least I know for a fact that as far back as 1982, Audu Ogbe was not only a speaker of his state assembly, he also was a Minister in Nigeria. Infact, he held two ministerial positions.
I also know without doubt that Gen Buhari, apart from being a PTF Chairman, rose to become the Head of State as far back as 1983.
Very recently, Atiku Abubakar was an 8 years Vice President..
I can't also come to terms with myself whenever I read that Gen Yakubu Gowon was just about 23 years old when he became Nigera’s Head of State. How many 33 years old men can be ward councilors today?
.
My dearest citizens of the Republic, do we continue rotating our leaders and expect to move forward?
As a child, I heard of Shehu Musa Yar'dua. As a young man, I had Umaru Musa Yar'dua rule me as president. We kept seeing the same people over and over again.
Gen Martin Luther Agwai, the former Chief of Army Staff is now the Chairman of SURE-P.
David Mark, former governor of 2 different states is today our Senate President. Tomorrow, if PDP no longer favours him, he will join forces with APC or which ever party there is.
.
We are where we are today because our fathers failed in their responsibilities to plan for us. Are we going to let our children suffer what we suffered by allowing these people rotate offices among themselves?
.
Whether we like it or not, Buhari as a former president receives a Pension of N22.7million.
Whether you like it or not, when Jonathan completes his tenure, he will also receive his millions as pension, and the cycle will continue.
.
One thing is sure, if Jonathan retains his presidency next year, he will not employ me in his government.
One thing is also sure, if Buhari wins, he will not employ you in his government.
Who will they then employ?
Of course, they will employ the same old crooks.
This is not Change. And this is not fair..
.
We all know that PDP is bad and corrupt. Yess.. But the bitter truth is; APC IS NOT THE CHANGE. They are all the same..
When we see the change we need, we go know!
For the meantime, let's just be watching the tides.
...
GOD BLESS NIGERIA.!!

Fellow Nairalanders, please share your opinions on the topic O! Not whether I truly am a Nairalander or not. It's not even possible for me to share this here if I were not. Anyhow, do you think using Social Media to campaign for political office in Nigeria will hae any influence on the February 14th elections?

Why Not.?? The Anambra Guber Elections would be your perfect case study

diluminati:
please stop these "i am a nairalander this and that", would you call yourself "i'm a facebooker"

Nairaland is for Nigeria.. Declaring that you are a Nairalander is like telling the world that you are proud of what is coming out of Nigeria.. Facebook may be global. That's credit to Mark. Nairaland is coming up too.. That's credit to Seun..
