yes you can. But some questions to see if i can be of help.
1. where are you from?
2.what part of the country do you reside presently?
3. how are you sure its jinn? cos you sound convinced.

since the 'Almighty America ' has refused to sell arms to Nigeria, why not our leaders use the same approach they used in successfully eradicating Ebola in Nigeria when this same America refused to give us the Zmapp when requested by the Nigerian Government. Commitment, Leadership, Strong will and cooperation is all it took us then. #endbokoramnow

my eyes. Gosh cant imagine a world without dem.

go and sleep with ur baseless accusations.

nice one, but some of the added features are like that of the #50 note..... could do better.

so President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan made his public declaration officially yesterday in the famous eagle square Abuja.
for those of us that watched with rapt attention, I did observe in him for the first time the president he should have been about 4 years ago. he was in the moment, for the very first time i was proud to show him off as my President. He spoke off Hands with all of his mind and focus, his body language showed that he knew what he was saying and clearly understood all of the programmes his administration were into. he did a very good home work before the event. He was articulate, passionate and indeed very confident. i urge him to continue this way. really very commendable. kudos to him.
Not campaigning for him though. thought of sharing with those that did not watch the live telecast. besides he has often times been accused of being clueless so he should be commended for this.

on your own bros. just carry eye commot

So often atimes women clamour for gender equality on vertualy all spheres of human endeavour. But as a Woman and a strong one at that, i bet to differ on that. as the saying goes... "All animals are equal but some are more equal than the others" as much as i admit that we are different from our male counterparts in so many ways (too numerous) to mention,i dont see it as a disadvantage but rather an advantage. I am anti-Feminist so will prefer the saying be reframed as " GENDER SENSITIVITY ratherthan GENDER EQUALITY........ what do you guys think? this does not however mean we are weak in anyway rather appreciating our uniqueness and distinct character and ability.

so was wondering if at all we have as much Northern Nairalanders as we do have of our counterparts from west and the south.Just Thinking. REGISTER YOUR PRESENCE LETS SEE IF WE HAVE ONE NAIJA ON nairaland.

Whats the source of energy that turns the solenoid of your dynamo and generate the electrogmentic energy that's converted to light energy ?

my thoughts exactly

Stomach Infrastructure things. I just hope Nigerians will vote with their two eyes open this tym around. Dont mortgage your Future and that of your unborn generation for a bag of rice that you will consume for just a month. If you want President Jonathan pls vote for him with or without the Rice else, take your rice and vote for your candidate of choice.

mayorkyzo:
If he's a Muslim like you then your religion permits multiple wives..in that case you can try being casual friends with him and hopes he gets the hint..but If he ain't a Muslim dude then go pitch your tent somewhere else...I understand being you being a young lady and alone...It is well..wish you the best of luck...

this is a good one.

haba Mr president. if you are sure Nigerians will vote for you come 2015, why being Jittery?? Transformation indeed. There is what we call Freedom of Association the last tyme i checked. hmmmmmmm. LET THE GAMES OF NAIJA POLITICS BEGIN!!!!

haryana:
so i am a widow with a child. i also am a muslim and young. i want to remarry and don't like the men who the men making advances so far for one reason or the other. but there is this Man i tend to admire and like so much. met him a couple of times but no plesantries exchanged between us. Don't want to make any move so its not misunderstood as being Desperate. He is married currently and they have 2 kids together. how should i go about this? i have his contact too.should i make a move? or what do i do.

i do understand your predicament but you have got to think about this very well. As much as you want a father figure for your child, did you ask yourself weda or not if you are ready to deal with issues of a polygamous home? the wife will definitely not welcome this idea and i think you should know that.

If there is one thing i can take back in life, it has to be early marriage. Would have married at 18. But no probs my daughter will marry at 18 and son at 20. Fortunately married at 24.

hi. thanks for this. very educative. my son is almost 3 years now and atleast once in a month or two we would have a cause to go visit a doctor either for cough and cartarhh or for sepsis. its begining to disturb me cos i feel the rate at which he takes antibiotics is getting too much (or so i think). try as much for him to eat healthy and keep the environ clean but i still have to face this every once in a while plus when anyone around him starts sneezing or coughing, trust him to come down with same. really worried and the pediatricians keep telling me he is a
child and its totally normal cos of the still developing immune system.

princeFAD:
i get 728k monthly after tax and i am still demanding for more

nawa for you ooo bros. anyways thats life and money the more you get, the more you want. (if you are for real, Be grateful)

why not site examples with our Nigerian young millionaires, thinking we would connect better given the fact that all the people listed above are of a different environment. considering the Nigerian conditions how is this feasible?

akenade:
Had my interview today . All I can say to those who are yet to get interviewed is be absolutely ready. The panel was 'mad' and they were out for blood. Let the waiting begin again...

Bros congrats to you ooo! atleast you will have some hope and will be preparing for the next stage. pls wat did you apply for? can you share the questions you can remember ? plus are you in lagos or Abuja?

I HOPE ITS ALSO NOT THAT YOU HAVE SOME ISSUES WHILE BEING INTIMATE WITH HER. AS IN NOT SATISFYING HER OR THAT YOU HAVE STOPPED BEING ROMANTIC. WE WOMEN CANNOT BE PREDICTED ATIMES. MAYBE YOU DONT SATISFY HER AND SHE DECIDES TO GO LOOK FOR IT ELSEWHERE. just saying

egbedore:
My wife just told me now that she has a boyfriend that sleeps with her and that there is nothing ℓ̊ am going to do.

ℓ̊ had earlier suspected she is sleeping with her doctor and one of the parent in her sch. She confirmed to me tonight that she os cheating cos cheating is fun!

What do ℓ̊ do

Now before Ɣøû comment,let me give Ɣøû a little background to our issues. ℓ̊ was involved with other ladies at some point in our marriage,of which she knew and ℓ̊ confessed to her. ℓ̊ don't do that anymore but she said she want to cheat so that ℓ̊ can feel what it feels to be cheated upon. Now she is sleeping around and tell it to my face that she is cheating and will continue without hiding it and there is nothing ℓ̊ can do!

Nlanders what do ℓ̊ do?

Hi Ayo, pls calm down, put yourself together and try to find out for real if indeed she is cheating on you. if it turns out she is, and she does not feel sorry and is willing to continue, pls send her packing. but if you love her and cannot let her go, then talk to her mother.mind you the mother should not let anybody know. if truly she loves you she will stop and feel sorry for what she has done else just forget her. you see marriage is solely built on trust. we women excuse Men cheating not because we are not jealous or cannot do same but because its like a second nature and any matured lady should know this as painfulas it may be. There is a source of concern when it becomes habitual and happens every now and then.But the fact is, we preserve our dignity for the sake of our LINEAGE. If on the other hand she is not sleeping with anyone,then she is saying it just to get you worried as you are now and have a taste of the bitter coin. Either way PLS!!!! Go for a thorough screening in the hospital. All possible tests to rule out any iota of doubt. meanwhile, talk to a confidant who will profer solutions or intervene not just hear your little dirty secret and go (eyyyah!!)

goke5050:
Guys that have checked their scores how did you go about it

i did not do that either. wanted @buchio7 to let us in.

buchio7:

Gods speed to potential interviewees

pls wat did you apply for? i applied for analyts rural electrification.

PROUDLY NIGERIAN. GOD BLESS OUR COUNTRY. THESE AND SO MANY MORE ARE THE REASONS WHY WE ARE MORALLY UPRIGHT AND STILL TRY TO UPHOLD OUR CULTURE AND TRADITIONS WHERE EVER WE FIND OURSELVES IN THIS FAST CHANGING WORLD.CAN'T TRADE BEING A NIGERIAN FOR COUNTRY.

rhames:
what tribe is she?

stating her tribe makes it too open for her identity to be known. But she is frm one of d major tribes in Niger state. Not Hausa..

TrollMan:
I think she should should get a díldo and keep herself busy when bored. My condolences.

@TrollMan. Nawa for you ooo! Sex is choosy and not all there is to life. If she has been able to keep to herself for 2 years and counting...... she is definitely willing to continue being patient for a little longer.

valdes00:
@OP.... Are you Amina?

@valdes she is Amina's sister to whom Amina's pours out her heart to. We are the best of friends.

[quote author=rhames post=26880877]much as we sympathise with this widow.there are other questions I would like to ask. whats her age? what does she do for a living? how was she treated by her husbands family after his demise? what's her religion? where is her location? what tribe is she? is she open to another relationship? if yes what type of relationship? has her in laws accepted her to move on with her life? what's the fate of her young child in the next relationship?[/quote
@rhames, she is abt 29 years old, she is an engineer in training i.e working. After the hubby's demise there were issues but it seem to be ok now cos they all have moved on. She is a Muslim and lives in Abuja. She wants to remarry not any other type of relationship. She is going into the next relationship with her child (I mean that cannot be negotiated).

So Amina lost her husband 2 years ago. Their union was 2 years 7months old when the husband passed on leaving her with a child who is almost 3 now. It was difficult for her to move on right after his Demise because they were so much in love. But after sometime she got used to the fact that she had to continue without him. 2 years has since passed without any advances from Men. Although if not told, you would never know she is not married because of the way and manner she carries her self decently and behaves. She also does not like talking about her late husband because she starts to cry immediately anything related to him is discussed.
She is now lonely and wants to move on and build a family and rediscover herself again, but she doesn't know how. Pls let's advice the young, poor and Lonely Widow. Matured minds should comment pls.
