Na the backward of everything dem dey talk na e we dey always experience.

Electricity engineering(musiwa)!

wao!
Pretty on her seems to be an understatement, cute sounds hypobolic. Just like saying carlos slim helu is averagely rich.
But the problem i have with the hair is that it will not shift the marginal utility curve of my garri to the left or right.

I support the agitation big time.
Indigenship is archaic though traditional and african and shouldn't be applied to politics but should be limited to cultural and traditional settings like kingship.
President Barrack Obama was born in Honolulu in Hawaii and grew up to represent chicago, Illinois in the senate.
George Walker Bush was born in connecticut but raised in Texas and claims texas. All under residency.
I can't imagine having being born in a land, pay all taxes and contribute to the developement of the place, now told i am not qualified to contest for any post in the land.
Though the problem with the residency in nigeria is that it will be abused and cause great disparity in the developement of the nation.

okpara ugo: Wasnt it in his village that Bola Ige was killed? They look out for for when the victim is most relaxed.

you goofed up.
Bola Ige was killed in Ibadan, Oyo State but his village is Esa Oke, Osun State.
Don't thank me but thank God.

[quote author=Dudu_Negro]this market has been closed a week and when Fashola visited it still has not been cleaned. thats what i call defiance.

here's what the government should do......give these nuts till close of business on friday to clean the place up and be ready for an inspection saturday morning. if they fail to clean up or fail the inspection, then demolish the market and use the space for something else. the traders must be banned from running any registered trade in lagos for 5yrs and if caught violating the order or caught in a crime, they will be charged to court to face prosecution.[/quote]that is too harsh man!

The Bank of Agriculture, BOA,
and the Nigeria Cassava
Growers Association, NCGA,
have signed a Memorandum
of Understanding, MoU, for
financing of cultivation of 60,
000 hectares of cassava in
Nigeria.
Vanguard gathered that
about N4.1billion is
committed to the project that
will benefit not less than
20,000 cassava farmers. The
MoU was supervised by the
Ministry of Agriculture and
Rural Development.
Speaking at the signing
ceremony on Wednesday, in
Abuja, the Minister of
Agriculture and Rural
Development, Dr Akinwumi
Adesina, said Nigeria has
increased its dry cassava
chips export to China to
three millions metric tonnes.
According to him, facility that
will assist the production of
cassava chips would be cited
in all the six geo-political
zones of the country,
including Kwara, Oyo, Enugu,
Taraba, Delta and Nassarawa
states.
He further noted that
agriculture as a business has
to move from primitive stage
to mechanized one, adding
that government is ready to
do all it could to add value to
it, while commending NCGA
for throwing its weight
behind the policy of the
present administration on
agriculture.

Also, the Minister of State for
Agriculture and Rural
Development, Bukar Tijani,
said the government would
reposition the BOA by
jacking up its capital base to
be able to cater for the need
of the Nigerian farmers.
Signing on behalf of the
Bank of Agriculture, the
Managing Director of BOA, Dr
Mohammed Santuraki, said
to ensure easy access to
credit facility by farmers, the
bank has worked out
modalities that are less
cumbersome for farmers to
meet in line with several
meetings held by the two
parties.
He said “We have both
agreed on modalities for
members of NCGA to access
credit facility in the Bank of
Agriculture through mutually
benefitting partnership and
collaborations. In line with
resolutions taken at the
various meetings, the bank
has worked out appropriate
loan processing procedures
that will ensure smooth and
timely packaging of loans
under this initiative, so long
as applicants do the
necessary to meet the bank’s
lending requirements”.
Represented by Mallam
Waziri Ahmadu, the BOA Boss
charged NCGA to screen its
members as agreed for the
bank to know the number of
farmers that are eligible to
take loan, stating that they
are open for any partnership
that will improve the live of
the Nigerian farmers.
“Not long after this signing
ceremony, the bank expects
NCGA to screen its members
and then forward to it, list of
its members that are eligible
to access our loans. When
this happens, the bank will
begin processing of all
applications endorsed to it
by the association.
“The door of the bank is
open for collaboration loan
schemes and other schemes
that are geared towards
improving the lives and
standard of living of the
Nigerian populace
particularly the less
privileged in the society,
through agriculture”,
Santuraki added.
On his part, the National
President of NCGA, Pastor
Segun Adewumi described
the MoU as “the first of its
kind in Nigeria, where a
body of farmers designed
her programme and the
programme received the
approval of the government
and the bank”.

[quote author=Ejiné]It is the truth! It was an okada man's fault
This is one of the reasons Okada should be banned.

nonsense!
The tradomedical doctor made her believed she delivered a tortoise and she went on proclaiming she did so.
She have birth to a twin then! A female baby and her twin tortoise.

Begging/urging seems not to have been the step he should have taken but tried mediating between the representatives of the market and the state government base on the request of the lagos state government.

welldone!
Hostility continues!
Another promised fresh air!
Let us continue to pray that those people involved in the bombing should confess.

oh my God!
Instead for these two people to kill themselves than to commit suicide.

[quote author=Ejiné]It's a lie.

He was killed because of commercial motorcyclists.

The killers, on that fateful day, flagged down an Okada man and asked him how much it would cost to get to the LASU front gate. After an agreement, they hopped aboard and the motorcyclist took them to their destination.
As soon as they got there, they pulled their weapons, gunned down Damoche, hopped back onto the Okada, with the very fearless evil demonic okada man (who saw the gory act and was still faithfully waiting) driving them back to their destination.

This is the truth and nothing but the truth.[/quote]are you kidding?
Seems you have a personal dictionary of yours that gave you that definition of truth.
Did what you just typed make sense to you if you are serious with it.

what were they producing?
What has happened to charity?
Are the poor in spirit and finances no more existing in our society?
Have they forgotten the world shall pass away with everything there in?
Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity.

what captivated me most in the award maybe cos that was the part i watched is the traffic warden that was given an award and sum of money up to #2.5million. When they showed the caption of the woman on duty, wao! She was just very passionate with it.
But my mind kept on telling me that her son that went with her for the award may outsmart the woman.

this is an hydrocephalus!
This is an example of a child born with leadership mantle.
Watch out for the boy cos he may likely grow up to become an head of state(s) or headmaster.

ben 10 isn't a mature cartoon.
As there are juvenile and mature films, so also are juvenile and mature cartoons.
As an adult, there is nothing wrong in watching mature cartoon like naruto or animations like tarzan. Can also choose to watch the juvenile cartoon with his/her children or younger siblings.

he didn't go oversea to take care of himself. He has only gone for vacation and he should be back soon.
Vacation is the new name for tumor removal in the hospital abroad.

They said 1200 private jets land in the airport monthly. Seems there is a possibility of the same jet landing up to 20 times a month.

soldier come, soldier go, Barrack go remain. But the problem with the barrack is that it may not be strong enough again to withstand the evading enemies.

NOBEL laureate, Professor Wole
Soyinka, is set to add yet another
diadem to his intimidating list of
honours as he receives the
maiden award of the Obafemi
Awolowo Prize for Leadership,
an initiative of the Obafemi
Awolowo Foundation.
The Foundation, following a
rigorous selection process by a
panel of eminent Nigerians, had
announced in December 2012
that Soyinka had been picked as
winner of the prize.
The actual presentation of the
prize, which consists of a plaque,
medal and the certificate of
award, will be made at a
ceremony, expected to draw a
wide array of distinguished
Nigerians on Wednesday, March
6, 2013. Soyinka is expected to
deliver a lecture on the occasion.
A dance performance, musical
celebration, goodwill messages,
as well as a documentary on
Chief Obafemi Awolowo and the
Foundation itself, set up in 1992
to preserve his intellectual legacy
are highlights slated for the
event. The documentary on
Awolowo, according to a
statement by the Executive
Director of the Foundation, Dr.
Olatokunbo Awolowo-Dosumu,
seeks to refresh the national
memory concerning critical
milestones in the sage’s political
career with a view to teaching a
generation, groping for direction
and leadership renewal useful
lessons.
Former Head of State and
Chairman of the Board of
Trustees of the Awolowo
Foundation, General Yakubu
Gowon, will chair the occasion,
while guests of honour include
other former Heads of
Government, State Governors,
traditional rulers and other
distinguished Nigerians.
The idea of the leadership prize
derived from the special dialogue
of the Obafemi Awolowo
Foundation held in July 2011
with the theme,
“Transformational Leadership
and Good Governance: Lessons
from the Awolowo Example”. It
was observed on that occasion
that one of the greatest
challenges confronted by Nigeria
is the leadership deficit. It was
recommended at that dialogue
that an Obafemi Awolowo Prize
for Leadership be instituted for
the purpose of recognizing
excellence and benchmarking
key leadership attributes
associated with Chief Awolowo.
Soyinka, whose nomination was
unanimously made by the
selection committee, headed by
former Secretary General of
Commonwealth of Nations, Chief
Emeka Anyaoku, graciously
accepted the nomination,
describing it as the “crème de la
crème of all the recognitions I
have ever received, being at once
so personal and universalist in
vision”.

ngozievergreen: 1) D lesson of dis thread is dat awolowo is only respected by his fellow cowards. Even hausa ppl regard him with disdain. Evn Gowon would rather call ojukwu a rebel but neva a coward. Rebels r never cowards; wherever dayokanu got d idea he left d battle field.

a man can be both a coward and a rebel bt the same time. Where was ojukwu when his deputy was surrendering? Why didn't he wait to surrender before fleeing to ivory coast?

ngozievergreen: 2) All dose legacies aside d free education were not due to Awolowo. If u guys are ignorant,say so. Today, igbos are d most educated. D tym many of us stopped sch because of d immediate post-war period has passed, hasnt it?


3) Awolowo was extremely tribalistic, @ dat initial stage of Nigeria, many odas had more of nationalistic views eg H. Macauley, Zik, Okpara, he was busy being tribalistic and had to die miserably for dat.
4) @ Tolexander, if u feel starvation and blockade policies because of his hope to b made a president but later trashed is victorious for u, den u too are on a long thing.

it is called strategy. If Ojukwu had the chance, he would do better. Rather he chose propaganda as his weapon.

ngozievergreen: 5) for dose of u trying to compare zik and Awo, stop d madness. He is Zik of Africa n d oda is Awo of Yoruba, not to say its a bad title o.
If u ppl think we should do a standing ovation for d person dt named d naira, den wat will be done for d one dt got 9ja independence in d most civilised manner in Africa?

Yet u have refused to explain y he killed himself, oh sorry,anoda victorious thing. If na so life dey pain una, make una go hug transformer one by one.

please stop bothering me with the same thing over and over. I like people that bring me new things and idea cos with that, i can develope.

dulphines: I'm still searching for the word "AWOLOWO" in the dictionary. If i find it, then i'l respond to you accordingly. The same crop of Nigerians that will speak their language even in an interview. Ole xander or whatever you nicknamed yourself, go catch some sleep, remember 2mrw is sunday, so u dn't arrive late.

while other people are abusing their power, wealth and intelligence, you are busy here abusing your god-given stupidity. Continue checking for awolowo in the dictionary. Don't forget to check for Ojukwu, azikwe and buhari.
