@ Acidtalk i foresee this thread going to over 20 something pages! Men see crowd, you don start wetin u no go fit finish watch ooo! Well, I am loving the thread anyway very informative

acidtalk: Come again please.

ACIDTALK, you are a true epitome of ur signature! You av spoken the real truth about the fake lives of these 'stars' ever wonder why they go so broke few years after they are out of the limelight? Just to ask, is it true that basketmouth (my favourite comedian) is temperamental? Good job

Lordave: wetin be ur real name, wetin be ur work self?

You no need that one now, wetin u wan use im name do? The guy is saying the truth, most I have confirmed

Jungle justice has come to stay in Nigeria. The Police have most times failed in their duties, hence, cannot be trusted! Nigeria is secretly boiling and I foresee the same jungle justice being visited on the corrupt politicians and other looters soon!

Aggrippa: some cases are best left "classified" i.e no go areas. but in the country, it is one of extreme, machinstic ,reckless overclassification

A muzzled press is what we have in this country, it will take extra efforts to have independent press in Nigeria!

A Literary Icon (in the mould of William Shakespeare) that bestrode his generation like a Colossus! A Titan in his chosen career! Happy Birthday and many more blissful years ahead Professor Chinua Achebe!

elo thaddi: i can confirm that i have had to use a very long stick to move the snake out of the room where i sleep move than once. Its very heavy and harmless. I went to a boarding school in the east and I do tend to see it the room any time I spend my holidays in the village. Its quite interesting when they tell stories about it and one of them is that if any body from Idemili kills it, he/she will have to bury as if u are burying a dead human being.

Wao, what a tradition!

The sacredness of Marriage has been replaced with subtility these days, you can imagine the rate of divorce even now in Nigeria among young couples, it is that wierd!

Wedding and Marriage obviously are two different things that have been confused with one other. It has gone so bad in our contemporary times that it is common to see couples having sleepless nights planning for "Wedding" forgetting that it will only last for few hours while "Marriage" will last a lifetime or many years! This open neglect on "Marriage" is one of the main reasons their are premature break-ups we see these days. Marriage must be given a deeper consideration over Wedding!

Israel is a covenanted race, trained in the art of war for centuries, I am cock sure they will respond in kind to their Arab neighbours. No matter how hard the Arab league try their best they will still be defeated! I have a feeling that this time around, the numbers of land occupation by the Jews may be more and they may not let go their captured territories! Seriously, I LOVE THE JEWS!

In addition, Nigeria is occupying the 64th position in the world on the kilometres of paved (tarred) roadways with a total of 28,980km compared to the United States first position with over 4.37 million km of paved roadways. I think we have the wherewithal to achieve more in this aspect because of raw materials if only we can pool our resources together!

Baby mama:
I agree 100%.This is the way to go

I concur 98% except for the States creation, dat was a brilliant piece. The current 6 geopolitical zones should be given the spirit of regionalism with the qualities of resource control, egalitarianism, true federalism and rule of law. States creation stunts developments, because it is premised on the 'monthly allocation' hence Governors embark on directionless spending spree! This is the time to ACT!

Jakumo: You are correct. The Boko-Copter was designed by a team of camel-jockey Jihad-Engineers, and it derives from structural and mechanical blueprints that came straight from The Almighty, via a burning bush, and not the hand of men, especially educated ones.

Not to worry, crack detectives are hot on the trial of the Boko Copter. This picture is of a war-games training exercise recently, and is shown here as a caution to all Boko Copter Kamikeze pilots, that the long arm of the law will be on them like stank on chit, once that truck fires up for the chase.

You nearly crack my ribs, what a funny dude you are even in the face of an imminent danger?

1ndidi2: Abasi mbo! I overheard one lady telling my mum that, her pastor predicted there would be a bomb explosion somewhere(can't remember where) with d use of a helicopter

My sister, the more reason we need to take issues like this seriously in prayer. If Nigeria must divide let it be a peaceful and painless one, we have seen enough bloodshed in this country!

afam4eva: They produce sensational news without substance.

Precisely, the kind of JOB they enjoying doing! But you can't blame them since Nigeria is not interested in 'investigative journalism' any longer, a real sad story indeed!!

[quote author=GARRI (x7)]Wahala dey oooo[/quote]Exactly what I am foreseeing but many dont seem to get the point here, Nigeria may be heading for the rocks sooner than you can think, just watch out as events unfold!!!

[quote author=::Andrew::]They think we are fools. which airbase feeds them info to fly and which radar do they use?[/quote]They don't need all that, the inthing is; Nigeria is not safe as being portrayed by our leaders and who told you they need Naija airbase, when they can make use of neighbouring countries sympathetic to their cause.

pheyikemi: I thot boko pple r against westernization, was d̶̲̥̅̊ helicopter locally made?

You dey mind dem useless goons propagating falsehood!

PehaKaso: Boko Haram goes Hi-Tech. Where do we go 4rm here? **whistling a local tune**

you are too funny, come to think of it, we have a Minister of Defense, State Minister of Defense, Security Chiefs in the Military and pari pari e, we have a Chief Security Adviser to the President and my question is; What are all these 'clowns' defending and advising? I can bet, Al-Quaeda groups are in Nigeria already, for sacking Aziza and replacing him with Dasuki (a former Aide camp to IBB) as Chief Security Adviser to the President, Jonathan goofed big time. More securities threat are still on the way

A member of the Islamic terror group, boko haram residing in Maiduguri that was arrested by the JTF yesterday disclosed that the terror sect have a helicopter.

The sect member claimed the helicopter was brought from Libya after Khadafi was killed and much of his weapons went to Al-Qaida, and he said more was coming from Somalia and Mali.

This is the second time the group is claiming to be having a heavy weapon, it occurred in 2009, when the group claim it’s having a tank which it collected from the Nigerian army.

The main problem is that the helicopter is the same colour with the Nigerian army’s helicopter. The arrested boko haram member claimed the helicopter may soon be used in an operation.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS DEVELOPMENT?

sherry lo: Ah! Tomakint ti yawere. I am sure by now you must be having your meal somewhere around yaba left btw i have been on this forum long before you but i usually dont have time for daft pretenders like you

Son, I have seen many intelligent ‘Silverbacks and Baboons’ I am afraid your intelligence cannot be compared to theirs, I hope you don’t feel insulted?

[quote author=hiltop!]You guys had been trying it before Saraki was born, it's been futile.

At last the 'Strong Man' of Ilorin politics is gone forever, now rejoice ILORIN people for your salvation COMETH!!!

[quote author=re@lchange]it is a historical fact that there has never been any attack against settlers in any part of igboland except reprisal attacks on northerners caused by attacks on igbos in the north
igboland and yoruba land are the most accommodating among majority tribes in nigeria[/quote]@ the bolded you are perfectly right! I will personally add that the entire Southern Nigeria is still more accommodating than the entire core NORTH.

ceejay80s: oga, its like u cant tell the difference between cheating and corruption

***tomakint coughs and laughs*** ....and later exhales; INDEED!

'Funky Mallams' have not cease to amaze me with their funny ways of reasoning, while their people were milking the country dry in their inglorious 38 years in power they couldn't muster the strength to tell them to encourage death penalties and possibly enforce it, now a Southerner is in power, they can now suggest the 'way forward'!

In some parts of Igboland, the specie of snake called python is treated with utmost respect and dignity while in some other areas in the same Igboland, python is regarded as a dreaded reptile. Idemili clan is a conglomeration of towns that make up the present Idemili North and Idemili South Local Government Areas of Anambra State. It is a well known fact that in Idemili clan, people worship pythons to the extent that it is a taboo to harm or kill the snake. In a situation where the snake which goes by the name Eke Idemili, in the local parlance, is killed by someone, the wrath of the community where the incident took place is always brought to the person who committed the crime and he or she is compelled to accord the snake a befitting burial like that of human being

To a very large extent I love studying about wildlife and on most occasions predators (Lions, Tigers, Pythons, Anacondas, Eagles, Hyenas and the likes have always catch my fancy)! One thing about animals is that they are ruled by Instincts (that means where animals are cared for and not killed they are known to be docile no matter how ferocious they might be, this is true in almost all cases, although not in general terms) unlike humans that are ruled by Instincts and Emotions. However, my emphasis is on the mystery of the pythons that roam free in Idemili where they have been harmless with no recorded case of killing humans despite the monstrous sizes of these serpents. Legend have it that they are sacred creatures that must not be killed, in as much as many of my Igbo friends always tell me about this 'strange culture' I will like to know of any versed Igbo Nairalander who can shed more light and perhaps give graphical representation of how true this cultural practice is and perhaps let us know if the said practice is still on.

olawaleolaolu: they are quick to print, but slow in follow up

...and you forgot to add that they also fails to deliver
