This is sad.

Just cause they were friends with benefits doesn't mean that a rape cannot occur.

A rape kit would have helped her case if a rape really happened.

But rape kits even dey naija?

xpizzy:
In response to the bolded, I strongly disagree, in this part of the world, we have been taught about vowels and consonants instead of Vowel sounds or consonant sounds. This is why University carries "a" and not "an" despite starting with a vowel. This is because the "You" sounds in University is a consonant sound.

So the rule to "a" or "an" is applicable to sounds not necessarily the alphabet that starts the word. For Instance, you can say "An SMS" this is because SMS carries "ES" sound.

What you explained is explained immediately after the bolded texts. Thanks

Violence, any form of violence I won't tolerate. All you people blaming the man for fighting a woman don't know there are many women out there that can beat men flat.

If you step on my toes, launch an attack on me, I'll do all within me to teach you the lesson of your life--whether you are a man or woman. I'll show you what gender equality is especially if you happen to be a woman.

NB: Women, don't let nollywood deceive you; grabbing a man underneath is not as easy as you think and see it.

Nonsense

The trend of being savage and witty has made social media users lose their senses and humanity.

A young man commits suicide and the problem is his iPhone charger?

By the way, why didn't he sue the accusers? It might have taken time, but if their accusations were false, they will learn the hard way.

It's appalling. In fact, it saddens my soul

Olawalesmarter:
I left School a long time ago and there is still no Job for common Nigerians, Although i am doing well in Business i still imagine what i could have achieved with the money and time i spent in school. Schooling and working abroad or starting Business sure pass now or else you go suffer, If your parent are still good financially you may not suffer much but those without financially good parents will suffer that's just the truth.

Maybe, schooling set you on that path of business orientation. Going to school is not all about getting a certificate to secure a white collar job with. You go to school to learn

Change to tekno or huawei?

All tech gadgets and even cars come with recycled features, any company claiming
otherwise is lying.

The biggest mistake apple will make is become a commodity for everyone.
People don't buy iphone because they want to make calls or browse, they buy
it to show class.

Which class is there to show? Come on, those days are old now; behold, everything is new as kids use iPhones too. Don't generalize what you do. Americans predominantly use iPhones. So you mean all of them buy iPhones to show class to each other?

May sense fall on you

Say Nigerians not people abeg.

Americans, their major market don't buy apple to show class but to use. Throw your mentality into the bin.

Reports reaching DAILY POST from Ogbomoso town in Oyo State has it that no fewer than fifty-five (55) female Muslim students of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) International School Ogbomoso, have been barred from entering the school premises over the use of Hijab.


A senior lecturer in the school who begged not to be named told DAILY POST that the 55 students were turned down by the institution’s authority for wearing Hijab on top of their uniforms Monday morning.

He said, “Hijab Imbroglio: Welcome to LAUTECH Secondary School, Ogbomoso, Oyo state. The story was dated back to 2011 when the first request was made to the Governing Board of the School to allow our willing Muslim females Children to use Hijab as part of their school uniform in line with Islamic dictate.


“Since 2011 barely eight years ago, several letters of appeal had been written to the GC while we wait endlessly without any concrete positive response to our simple request.

“Our Muslim girls over the period have been using Beret instead of Hijab in their own case contrary to the Islamic dictate.

“While our patience overtime as law-abiding citizens was premised on our belief that the Management of the School will do the needful and give regard to the rule of law & provision of the Constitution guaranteeing fundamental human right of everybody.


“Having waited endlessly since 2011, it was decided on the 4th of January, 2019 that our willing Muslim female children should commence the use of Hijab as School resumes on 7/1/2019.”

When asked by DAILY POST to give an update on what was going on in the school, the senior lecturer said, “The Children are in the school presently, teachers are threatening. They are removing Hijab from them. The girls disagreed. They disallowed them to enter. It’s noise presently. The school is still on. Our Muslim children that used Hijab are still outside the school”.

However, Principal of the school, Mr. Ibrahim Animashaun while reacting urged the parents and the students to await the decision of the school board of governors before further action.

Animashaun who initially declined to comment until he had been asked to do so by the Chairman of the school board of governors, Professor K. Adebiyi informed DAILY POST that the status quo remains until the board comes out with its decision whether to allow or to ban the use of Hijab in the school.

He told DAILY POST in a telephone conversation that, “I don’t know because I have to discuss with the Chairman of the board first.

“The school board of governors is yet to approve the use of Hijab. And the board is looking at their letter. So we are yet to communicate them. Until we communicate with them, the status quo remains.

“We spoke with the aggrieved parents that their letter is still with the board. LAUTECH International School board of governors is looking at their letter.”
