dearpreye:
Thanks brother. Just felt compelled to share the essay with us. We can make smarter choices.
Is Mary a nler?

Why should anyone care why you didnt marry her?

I dont get it, does the world revolve around you?

If you are advising your cohorts to not marry an angry person, that is different, is that what your long story is trying to say? huh

From your name, I assume you are from a particular part of Nigeria, namely gej's area, is this a cultural thing with you, since gej tended to display an extremely calm personality during his tenure.

jimfarayola:
I'm finding it improper to hate someone just because she is fat,am I the only one in this state and how can I do away it?
Why not hate the fat instead of hating the fat person.

Has it occurred to you that just as you hate the fat person, the fat person might be harbouring hatred for you as well?

PoliticsRe: Masari Paints Katsina Schools With APC Colour by tpiar: 9:46am On Mar 22, 2016
The colours are nice but if politically motivated, then can always be repainted differently.

There are only so many colours in the spectrum, if some folks want to commandeer and monopolize some of them, then which ones will be left? huh

Does she go to the same camp for each photo op, or are there multiple IDP camps in the husband's state?

Why did we not hear of these camps before her tenure?
CultureRe: When You Marry Somebody, Do You Marry The Person's Entire Tribe? by tpiar(op): 9:40am On Mar 22, 2016
I dont think so.

Of course you can try to fit in in order to interact better with your SO, but it sounds somehow to consider yourself as married to or dating the whole tribe/ethnic group.

Of course this might be viewed differently depending on culture, just stating my views here.

I think what the op is referring to is the mindless hate exhibited by people over seemingly irrelevant things which ostensibly have no bearing on the hater's life.


Xenophobia, etc.



Another thread was opened in culture section recently to discuss the issue of the hatred displayed towards Americans of Nigerian origin who were born in America.

Nothing can be guaranteed anywhere, keep your eyes open and your wits about you, and fear God.

Foreign AffairsSpecial Forces/police On Standby To Battle Up To 10 Simultaneous Terror Attacks by tpiar(op): 2:09am On Mar 22, 2016
Special forces and police have been put on standby to battle up to 10 simultaneous terror attacks on London.
To prevent a Paris-style attack in the capital, it is understood the National Crime Agency has been ordered to crackdown on firearms.
Agency bosses fear terrorists returning from Syria could carry out multiple attacks in London, spreading resources across the city.


But a minister told the Sunday Telegraph that UK special forces was well prepared for such an eventuality.
He told the paper: 'We used to plan for three simultaneous attacks but Paris has shown that you need to be ready for more than that. We are ready if someone tries with seven, eight, nine, ten.'
The Army is also on standby outside London to aid the SAS and Metropolitan Police should there be multiple attacks.


According to the Telegraph, the Army's counter terrorism bomb disposal unit is also putting together a team to combat chemical and biological weapons at a base in Didcot, Oxford.
The SAS is also conducting training exercises focused around dealing with improvised explosive devices (IEDs) that have been turned into weapons of mass destruction.
