limewire is good but it has to much viruses. so you got to be careful when downloading anything. my computer got a virus from limewire and it got messed up big time.

It is not for you to like my comments but to realize that before we do certain things we have to be prepared. We have enough divorces in the world right now! Just be careful thats all! You jump in and marry a man from a different culture you do not understand and you think that is a rational ingredient for a marriage? All because you are in love. When things start happening that she does not understand, she might start complaining about the Nigerian dude--and might be the first to call him M-F-stinking-African-George-of-the-Jungle-Bunny! When he cooks his stockfish, you will complain that the smell wants to kill her! We see it everyday over here! Are you telling me what I do not know?

Who is judging?--If I were judging the poster I would not be so kind! So stop being unecessarily sentimental and pay close attention to the trend of discussions here. Look up the meaning of the word "judging" in the dictionary and educate yourself ok? Shalom to you too!

Yeah sure! You were so kind to quickly criticize her! Me? Getting sentimental? Just because I pointed out your shortcoming that makes me sentimental huh? Hmm, I wonder what sentiment has to do with a factual statement. And what's the trend of discussion here that I'm suppose to pay attention to, if you can tell me? Oh! I know, you're referring to your trend of criticism on every thread you participated on here of course! I know you're the only "well-educated" person on Nairaland, which explains why you resort to personal attacks when someone challenges your point of view. Keep it up! Your hypocrisy is becoming more glaring. Anyway, I'm not surprised at your reaction because most people that are so quick to criticize others are not so receptive of criticism. Come to think of it, you must be a very lonely and miserable lady to always want to criticize anything someone has to say. Have a blessed day. Peace!

@Almondjoy

You do not even know if she has or has not already studied his culture to some degree or asked him and others questions to assist her outside of Nairaland, but is rather, seeking MORE advise from her nairaland friends. Please do not be so quick to form an opinion without at least asking her the question "tactfully." Why be so quick to criticize someone who is at least brave enough to reach out on Nairaland. That is why I preferred to seek that information from whom it is the most important--MY NIGERIAN HUSBAND. As much good advise that was given, and it was very good, nice, and supportive, I will live with him, and he may feel differently from what other's say--even though he is Nigerian. He meets me more than half way in all matters, and we are making our own path (Nigerian/Black "Mix".

She will do just fine, for she cares enough to reach out and at least ask (signs of a good wife)!

Chei! Tito Santana, na u dey lay blame on here. Na wa o, wonders shall never end o. For someone in deep $hit, (which I thought you cooked up anyway) you get the mouth to lay blame on pesin hia so ehn. I would think you would be worrying about keeping your family together rather than lay blame here like say na u holy pass.

No, there's nothing you can do to make him impotent. With the way you write, I would cheat on you in a heartbeat too!

I'll tell you where the poster is; probably ripping off some of these desperate, Hot, agba-iya dundis on here already.

Well, just so you all know, this poster's email addy is suspicious to start with cause it looks like a guy's name (carlwilson@gmail.com). Though the wilson was incorrectly spelled but I bet that's the name. Guys, make una dey look before una leap o; toto no be gold o. Opari! Peace!

Some people will come here and be posting rubbish. How can somebody come here and say we don't learn anything from Nollywood? Hasn't Nollywood taught us (courtesy of Linda Ikeji) that:

1 . Every problem you have is spiritual.
2. In every romance movie, someone must die.
3. It is possible to hit a person without actually touching them!
4. Anyone who gets hit by a car dies immediately.
5. Poisoned food always tastes better.
6. The best way to make money is by visiting a 'Babalawo'/joining a cult/sleeping with rich men.
7. One of a pair of twins (identical or not) is born evil.
8. There is never an end to your suffering, except death!
9. With a pastor , all things are possible.
10. A movie can be titled anything, such as: The boy is mine, Face me, I face you, Two rats, Spanner, Calculator, Igala, Ijele, Igodo, Igudu, Shigidi, Eran Iya Oshogbo Ta longbe mu.

11. A movie has not been made if at least one actor/actress has not-'shelled', twisted his/her lips to speak wrong phonetics'.

12. You are in love, you want to take your girl out, the best place you take her to is,
*Mr. Biggs/Tantalizers: where you'll most probably see an ex while feeding each other.
*The beach: where it is imperative that you ride a donkey and carry her playfully.
*Or the best: take her to buy some new ugly clothes.

13. An Igbo movie has been made if ,
* You visit a 'Babalawo'
* A fleet of cars is shown off at regular intervals for a total of half of the movie time.
* Kanayo 'O' Kanayo is in the movie. Pete Edochie is also there too!

14. Gun shots and knock-outs sound the same!
15. Sometimes the title has absolutely nothing to do with the movie.

16 Once you read the title and see the poster you know it all!!!(Also the soundtrack gives you a headache because it just narrates the whole story repeatedly - so much for suspense and intrigue!)

17. A love story has not been produced if it does not have one or two of Stella Damascus, Stephanie Okereke, Genevieve Nnaji, Omotola Jalade, Rita Dominic

18. The police are extremely 'efficient' unlike their counterparts in real life.
19. An actress can wear the same hairdo for more than a year and even in longer flashbacks.
20. It is permissible to wear very dark shades at night!
21. When you are shot in the chest, it really doesn't matter; your head will be bandaged! Same for your legs!
22. When advertising a movie, you really should shout because, people are deaf?

23. When you are extremely poor, you will still be able to afford-a beautiful house, very good furniture, T.V., nice clothes, but you won't be able to send your kids to school.

24. Most especially in Yoruba movies, your gateman must be inefficient and comical. He MUST dress like a freak, be rude to all your visitors and never mind his business.

25. The bad guy always dies or gets caught by none other than the police- lol
26. The best way to hook a girl is when her car develops fault.
27. At the end of a three hour movie you'll be reminded that THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING,
28. No matter the type of movie, TO GOD BE THE GLORY is always at the end.

So, how can you say that we have not learnt anything? Abegi. Nollywood na baba!

TO GOD BE THE GLORY

Lol (rolling on the floor) Spora, you've said it all but let me add these:
29. The previews sometimes take half of the movie time and louder (oh, very loud!) than the actual movie itself.
31. Oh, a love movie is not complete without the inclusion of Ramsey Noah!
And yes, you're right, how dare someone comes here and tells us there's nothing to learn from our naija movies. dey are jus jelosh ni o jare! To God be the Glory! Peace!

Teriba:
@ T@meDo,
Yeah, you are dead right! What is very sad is to see what Britain is doing to our people that want to visit Britain these days. Is this not the UK that our people used to enter visa-free up until the early 80s ? I think FESTAC `77 marked the height of our rise as a nation; through it we announced to the world that we have arrived and they saw with their own eyes that we had ! It has been right back to earth ever since! Very Sad!!!

@ ow11,
The nice thing about Ojukwu is his candour whenever he speaks these days. I think that has to do with his age and the passage of time. I mean, all the actors in that ego-trip then were in their 20s and 30s. The North had many reasons to go to war before 1967 and the Yoruba could have as well declared war as a result of June 12, but where would it lead us ? Nowhere!

Teriba:
Let me say from the outset that this list is not likely to change any time soon!

1. Ibrahim Babangida

2. Olusegun Obasanjo

3. Ibrahim Babangida

4. Olusegun Obasanjo

5. Ibrahim Babangida

I`ve put many things into consideration before arriving at this list. It`s nice the poster also wants us to explain the reasons for our choices.
One of the things those of us in our 30s can say about Nigeria is that we`ve been lucky to see her at her very best, while it`s the other way round for the twentysomethings. Whenever I visited Nigeria in the recent past, I`ve always had to ask myself whether the Nigeria that I`m in is still the same Nigeria that I was born and bred in. Can this be the Nigeria of FESTAC `77 ? Is this still the Nigeria in which Tai Solarin decided to resign from his post simply because he could not produce his driving licence on demand when he was stopped by the Nigerian police ? Is it still the same Nigeria where Buhari sent some of the governors of the second republic ( 1979-1983 ) to jail because they diverted less than 10,000 Nigerian naira into the purse of their political parties ? And is this the Nigeria in which Obafemi Awolowo took on a member of his own political party who was a popular governor of the then Bendel State asking him to refund the money he spent during the burial ceremony of one of his parents-with immediate effect! That was after the professor governor had told him that, `` Sir, I didn`t use this money to feed my family I used it to feed the members of the public that came to the funeral ceremony``.
Each and every time I ruminate on the state of our nation and the genesis of the mess we are in, my analysis has always taken me to no other individuals than Olusegun Obasanjo and Ibrahim Babangida.
The rot we`ve been experiencing to this day started in 1979. Obasanjo was the military leader who was preparing to hand over power to the civilian. But it happened that one of those contesting the presidential election had made it clear that, if elected, he would probe the military because they had mismanaged a lot of things. Well, the candidate that made that threat was Pa Obafemi Awolowo and Obasanjo was determined to stop him. Elections were held, rigged as usual, results disputed and Awolowo held to court. What followed was a mathematical joke that we needn`t go into. But what is important is the fact that Obasanjo had just rigged the first presidential election in the history of Nigeria. Before then, people had seen the military as a credible institution- and they were! So, for the first time in the history of Nigeria, Obasanjo showed the military how to rig an election to achieve a pre-determined goal. The result of this was the emergence of President Shehu Shagari, a good man who was too weak to lead anything. The people around him capitalised on his gentle nature to steal and loot the treasury between 1979-1983.
But the destruction of anything Nigerian started in 1985 when Babangida outsted Buhari for no reason whatsoever! Never in the history of Nigeria has a military man done what Babangida did to Nigeria. It was a season of corrupt practices. His was leadership at its indecorous worst! Corruption became an ideology and the ideology was corruption! With Babangida, stealing from the treasury was just fashionable and only the stupid ones would do otherwise. Going into offices simply became the same thing as going to transact a business at a market place. The truth of the matter is that once a military leader shows the people of his country that nothing is wrong with stealing and indscipline, that country is dead and it was under Babangida that Nigeria was murdered. Abacha merely performed the burial ceremony. That is why I laugh when people ask why we are like this in Nigeria. We are like this because we had the misfortune of having Olusegun Obasanjo and Ibrahim Babangida in our midst. If these two had not been born in Nigeria, the country would have become a developed nation by now! If you look at each and every characteristic on parade in Nigeria today, you could easily trace it to either of them. In an ideal country, Olusegun Obasanjo and Ibrahim Babangida would be nothing but gangmasters, permanently on police radar, constantly running from state to state for refuge!
I thought very briefly about including people like Ojukwu, Ernest Shonekan and Patricia Etteh. Ojukwu for starting a reckless war he would never be able to win in a million years; a war that set Nigeria back many years. But I honestly don`t see a link between Ojukwu and the state of our nation today. And Ernest Shonekan is just a useless old man that doesn`t deserve a battery space in my write-up. As for Etteh, well, she was just doing what Obasanjo and Babangida taught him, really!
A Nigerian that wants to see the big picture is always going to see these two as the only thing that is wrong with Nigeria.
There is no point in blaming businessmen for the rot because they can only do what the governments allow them to do. Donald Trump is what Ronald Reagan made him to be. A businessman is out to make profit and his bottomline is just as simple as that. Buhari showed us that citizens do whatever their leaders demanded. What Obasanjo and Babangida demanded from Nigeria was 419 and that is what we have become as a nation!
Some of the governors you guys are hammering wouldn`t have got to the upper echelons of power if not for the two criminals that I`ve discussed here! And it`s unfair to blame poor Nigerians for the crimes of Obasanjo and Babangida. These two and all their children are guilty of the crimes that have brought Nigeria to her kneels and they should be the ones held responsible, not any other individuals!

J_licious, I seriously can remeber LUTH being a state in Nigeria

Haba Rico Suave , leave d pickin alone now, she did say Lagos o; I know you meant can't remember. Though I doubt she sabi where she come from gangan bcus majority of us wey dem born for Lagos no necessarily mean say we come from Eko-Akete. As e be say for naija na for where ya papa come from na hin you go claim as hin pickin. Come to think of it o, why pesin no fit claim him mama place sef as e be say na only papa place pesin suppose claim; hmmmm?

onydchic:
Why the generalization? I can't stand Nigerian movies. They're predictable and foolish (not to mention the cringe worthy acting) and my close female friends don't watch them either.
I admit that there is an alarming amount of girls that watch them with obsession. But isn't it the same way for football At least, a Nigerian film might actually have a moral, as opposed to watching grown men in shorts try to kick a ball into a net and get paid foolishly for it!
This is just the male supremacy thing talking. Yo think there aren't stupid guys
I also really don't see the connection between Nigerian movies and dumb girls. If they don't know basic stuff like that, it just means they're paying very little attention to newspapers, intelligent books etc. And now we're on it, i know a lot of guys that i have to interpret half of what i say in a discussion, so,

Now I see why you have to interpret half of what you write on a thread to guys. That's cause ya don't make no sense with an incomplete sentence!
