HealthRe: Any Mouth Odour Solution by tpia: 1:45am On Aug 24, 2008
He can try brushing after every meal and gargling with mouthwash.

If that doesnt work, see a dentist or doctor in case its a sign of a more serious problem.

Or else try eating healthier meals with more fruits and vegetables.

Also, reduce soda intake and drink more water.

@tpia

Yeah, I know it kind of stings but its the truth.

I'D say take time to find out about Islam for real and you'll have the same type of confidence.  wink
what on earth do you think is left to "discover" about Islam?

besides, what same type of confidence? Confidence that you'll be a resident in hell therefore you know all the people you're going to meet there? huh

Think before you talk abeg.

@Tpia: Except by Allah, I am a true follower of the last prophet of God. Hence, by the prophetic chain links relationship, I am therefore a follower of every prophet before the last one, whose prophet period I live in.

But you, on the other hand, with ridiculous exageration and distortions of the position of the prophets before him and your denial of some, including the last one, you have no portion in the inheritance of the mercies and message that they brought.

By this very deficient condition which you live in, paradise is forbidden to you, as a christian. The Qur'an boldly sates it. Since what I believer is in the Qur'an, there is no doubt in my mind that, unless you abandone the Biblical vessel, it will sail you to Hell.

The gatekeeper of hell is an Angel called Malik. He is stearn and all the Angels of Hell meter out their punishment as measured in commandment to them. Please note that those who say that God is not One Lord, and those who worship others along with Him, or do not worship Him, at all, both belong in the Fire of Hell.
more hell talk. 

You seem to anticipate hell more than you anticipate heaven.

Of course the Muslim paradise isnt for me- what would I do with 75 women?  My own paradise no get wastage. Everybody has a valid non- prostituting job there.

i can foresee alot of trapped nigerians in the west in the future. 50 to 60 yr old naija woman and men existing in a society where u cannot fully come into your own at that age as in you are a reject to society because you are old and a minority. kids don't want to see your ol ass around unlike in naija where elders are respected. oh well. this our generation will be something to watch out for in the next 20 to 30 years. be a bunch of ol ass nigerians all over american nursing homes demanding for eba and pomo
no problem.

I'm looking into the viability of nursing homes mainly for Nigerians abroad. E go happen by God's grace.

That 30 million naira wey you dey talk- na for where you wan make most Nigerians in Diaspora find am?

No suggest make them begin rob bank for overseas oh. In fact, just yesterday CNN re-aired their documentary on Nigerian 419 scammers and ID thieves, I was told.

Dont know why people lack comprehension skills.

No one is forcing any of you to go home, so all this disdain and fear of malaria which never killed you when you lived, ate, shat and grew up in Nigeria but which can suddenly kill you now after getting visa or trekking through the desert, is totally unfounded.

Anyway, enough of the hullabaloo. If your application for asylum is dependent on your giving Nigeria a bad name, then good for you. Hope you get the green card you so desperately need, and may you never regret the words coming out of your mouth.


geez, folks can sound so stupid in their blind bat mentality. Accident wey never kill all the 100 million wey dey live there, na im spiritualist don tell you say e go kill you as if say accident no dey happen for abroad.

This plane crash in Spain from two days ago (where 140 people died)- if na inside Nigeria that one happen, na so Nigerians go dey rain curses everywhere say na the witches for them village dey spoil Nigeria.


Grieving families still without news, three days after Madrid crash

[quote author=Brash! link=topic=163011.msg2696736#msg2696736 date=1219501341]i don't think there was a problem with him not showing emotion, absolutely nothing wrong

hez not an emotional person, put it that way and it didnt really mean he gave up

i bet his heart was going to be racing all through, but he might not show it! grin[/quote]Its to keep people's spirits up. Watching him made me kind of apprehensive when I saw he looked like he'D already given up on the match.

Since we don't use mascots, the coach's face is the next best thing.

Anyway, at least we got the silver. cheesy
SportsRe: Nigeria (0) - Argentina (1) In 2008 Olympics Final by tpia: 3:24pm On Aug 23, 2008
I dont know why people arent giving Odimwigie more credit. The guy tried during the first half. He just kind of slowed down after one of the Argentinians nearly knocked him over while struggling for the ball.

Obinna was also okay- great dexterity there.

The Argentinian replacements all looked like gang members, for some reason. Hard faces and all.
SportsRe: Kudos To Samson Siasia by tpia: 3:20pm On Aug 23, 2008
He did well but he should have shown more emotion during the second half. It was almost like he'd given up, from watching his face. He was too calm, really. Especially compared to the first half, when he was sweating profusely. You could tell he was really fired up then.

Even if the boys were losing, he could still have showed some excitement in order to keep everyone's hopes up.

The Argentinian coach was jumping up and down the whole time as if he was standing on a hot potato.

But everyone did well sha. The heat and humidity might have also exhausted the players.
SportsRe: Nigeria (0) - Argentina (1) In 2008 Olympics Final by tpia: 7:15am On Aug 23, 2008
the way the Argentinians kept falling down (as usual) almost before anybody even touched them, is so childish.

Naijas should have done the same jare. Its not a crime to fall down, is it.

Odimwigie also tried though.
SportsRe: Nigeria (0) - Argentina (1) In 2008 Olympics Final by tpia: 7:10am On Aug 23, 2008
the naija team was somewhat demoralized after that goal. undecided

it was so obvious.

anyway, its all good. They tried.
SportsRe: Nigeria (0) - Argentina (1) In 2008 Olympics Final by tpia: 6:59am On Aug 23, 2008
congrats to Nigeria and Argentina.

It wasnt easy but at least the guys tried sha. cool

imo, Nigeria had better control of the ball. The Argentinians were mainly doing long kicks. Though that could also be important.

[quote author=Iyke-D link=topic=159830.msg2694747#msg2694747 date=1219463469]You are very correct about Fashola's call not being meant for me.

Its clear you missed most of my points. If you think it is not a biggie for someone abroad to not only uproot
themselves but their kids most of whom were born abroad over to Nigeria because Fashola said so regardless
of the fact that the situation on the ground is nightmarish, good luck on that. Is it doable? Of course it is. Is
it desirable? I think the answer is NO, which is why people will stay put wherever they are.

I had a close friend that was here on vacation from Nigeria and when he was flying back, his greatest concern
was how to get from the airport to his home in Lekki safely. I mean this guy just took a trip from Nigeria to
London and finally to the US, and was about to embark on the return leg of the journey after being away for
two weeks in a foreign land and his greatest worry was the few miles journey to his house in his homeland?
I guess I am supposed to pretend I didn't hear that.

In as much as the bulk of Nigerians living in Nigeria will remain there, the bulk of those in the diaspora will
also remain until they gain reasonable assurance that their return will not be an exercise in futility or a total
disaster.[/quote]Kindly follow my posts on this thread.

I said I DO NOT SUPPORT NIGERIANS ABROAD RETURNING HOME.

I'm curious,can you point out to how the estimates done on Nigeria's oil reserves contradict Yamani's statement?
the quote is anything but brilliant.

Modern archaeological techniques stress a wider collection of information that has expanded our knowledge of prehistory and rendered neat divisions such as the term 'Stone Age' increasingly obsolete. We now know that the changes in past societies over the millennia were complex and involved multiple factors such as the adoption of agriculture, settlement or religion and that tool use is just one unrepresentative indicator of a society's practices and beliefs.
Stone Age describes a primitive way of living, and comparing that time with today's world shows a questionable worldview.

Just my opinion oh. You're entitled to yours.
