Politics › Re: Legislators Adjust Laws To Favour Inec ! by usbcable(m): 2:50pm On Jul 30, 2010
The amendments and subamendments dont mean much to me.
Why?
hardly is any law implemented when it comes to elections in nigeria.

@butterfly,
kindly state reasons why you think they should go to jail.
and please do this with a high sense of decorum,integrity and objective reasoning.
no need insulting people.
I like BRF and TINUBU, but I dont mind hearing from an opposition too.It creates room for intellectual robbing of minds.

Career › Re: Top 10 Well Paid Occupation In Nigeria by usbcable(m): 4:01pm On Jul 28, 2010
If BBC tomorrow airs a documentary wherein they say Nigerians regard Kidnapping, forgery, Yahoo-yahoo, fake pastor and so on as mentioned above most of you guys will cry fouls that they are only highlighting the bad sides of our nation.
Truthfully, all the aforementioned are jobs but not a prideful one. And I tend to believe most of us would not even want to work for these guys if we have another choice.
Unfortunately, our statistics bureau cant be of help since they dont even have adequate data to make an analysis and comparism of various jobs and by jobs I mean professional jobs.
Nonetheless, I googled 'top 10 jobs Nigeria' and I came across this article;
www.articlebase.com/career-management-articles/top-10-places-to-wok-in-nigeria-2831872.html
it has more respectable jobs that most of us nigerians would love to be associated with. And not all those shameful illegal occupation that most of us hope our children would not grow to experience.

I have a DStv but I would always hope the best for HiTv even if it means me having to go to viewing centres around my area.

Its a Nigerian business employing Nigerians and also providing livelihood for hundreds of Nigerians.

I just sincerely hope this dont lead to their demise(although I dont expect them to die).


DSTV would continue to have patronage considering their already made customer base, with or without epl.

Food › Re: Smoked Foods Can Cause Tongue Cancer — Expert by usbcable(m): 10:17pm On Jul 20, 2010
chuqudy:
People need to be aware of the reasons why many young people die early these days. Cancer cases are on the increase. Smoked foods, fried foods, junk food all are bad to health. They are the major causes of colon cancer. Colon cancer is the number one killer disease in the world today. 95 percent of deaths in the world today are as a result of colon cancer. So, run away from smoked, fried, roasted, baked, salted foods.
the 95% must be refering to planet mars. If not its a then I suggest you check your source(brain inclusive)

@OP,
I think maybe the professor was refering to smoked animals made via burnt tyres which I wont doubt to be casinogenic.
but if its about the regular fish meat and co, I think its a remote possibility.
All said and done, I still have some in the kitchen uncooked and God knows am cooking 'em ASAP before they give another report about casinogenic soups.

#Not enough security in place to cater for the Eze's that oppose their territory being used for such ''trade''.
#Not enough skilled/professional law enforcement officer to handle cases of kidnappings in Nigeria.
#Not enough equipment(guns &co) in place to empower our police force in order to match illegality with ''fire 4 fire''.

I hope to further and get the CCIE. My question now is that what is the prospect of CCIE voice compared to R&S.
Also, a friend advised getting certified in Microsoft Server 2007. That this enhances your CV. While another said ITIL is better.
Any advise from the house would be appreciated.
N.B.

Kennyblues:
Why are you talking about One Man One Vote. What is the ratio of literates to illiterates in Nigeria. How many people know about one man one vote.

Who are the real voters?
One Man One vote means every individual has a one count in deciding who he answers to.
An illiterate,a Professor,an activist, a militant, a pro-IBB nigerian, an anti IBB man all have only one count/say/vote in the election.
the ratio of illiterates to elites does not matter as everyone can exercise only a one time right.everybody does not need to know ''one man one vote'', because everyone already knows the principle.as it was displayed in June 12 1993. the problem is for it to be applied once again in a fair and just environment, which of course IBB and co would detest.

Kennyblues:
I wish a formidable candidate would emerge and test might with the General. I have looked at every potential candidate would could emerge but none of them could match the General.

Who wants to context with the heavyweight champion,
In reality with the present electoral process, their are a few candidates that can be able to chase or put up a good fight against the generals(IBB,Buhari,OBJ and Atiku),
but I would rather a GEJ/Mark/Bankole/Elrufai becomes the next president than same old men.
I never really liked the PDP but I hate the return of the old bandwagons the more.

Moreover, there are more credible and capable people.Only that the election most likely wont be One Man One Vote.
I did vote in the last election and will still ,Insha Allah come next election.Even if an Evil Genius/ Maradona rigs it to the high heavens.

[/quote][quote author=Big B1 link=topic=479162.msg6391562#msg6391562 date=1279211761]IBB will win because none of you guys is bold enough to identify any candidate of your choice; all you have done so far is cry and make baseless noise on Nairaland, and that will definitely not bring home the trophy.

You dreamers keep on talking about people (Goodluck, Ribadu, Sambo) who have not made their intention to be known; just in-case you do not know, next president must be elected by next year May (less than a year).And all you folks could do is cry like bunch of 2 day old babies.

IBB is ready, focused and determined; there is no stopping, he'll rule again.
Goodluck knows and Sambo clearly understands that it is very critical for IBB to return and bring this country back to the top. Nobody else has the balls.
Neither Yar'adua nor Jonathan was amongst the earliest to signify their intent for the presidency but they ended up as our president.but this dont take anything away from IBB's aspirations, it only lets you realise its not a ''sure banker'' for anyone of them.
and my dear alot can happen in six months to the election .

yeah, we may be crying like new born babies but I wonder how you would react if truly a One Man One Vote election happens in Nigeria.

And I wonder what makes you think he can take us to a place he never himself occupied in the hearts of the masses talkless of him taking Nigeria to the top.

d truth of the matter is dat no matter wat anybody says once ibb beats jonathan in d primaries, which he will. he has eventually won the presidency.
I agree with you that if IBB beats GEJ at the primaries he most likely ends up as our next president.
but that is ''if he defeats GEJ'', and its never easy defeating the incumbency.
And,
Insha Allah he wont win the primaries  talkless of election proper.

Different strokes for different folks. There is no point calling for the genius' head over everything that happened during his regime. Where there no economic advicers? how many of them threw in the towels when the economy was crippling. The sole called activists, how many of them were fighting a just course -  to you tent oh Isreal.

Did the Genius single handedly syphone the oil wind fall?
but during all these irregularities he was @ the helm of affairs.
he appointed the incompetent advisers and ministers and since they all answer to him of which their failure is also his failure.
and the activists have endless pointers indicating that they were fighting the tyranny of his administration.

and yes BTW am not calling for his head.I have mine which is sufficient for me.

he also did not syphone anything alone but at least he had a field day with the revenue therefrom.

what else do you want him to say, already he has taken responsibility of whatever happened; an hallmark of a true leader
does this include the assasinations of anti-military rule activists.Definately, no.
and how about the oil windfall.
or how about the crippling of our economy and education for months.

Anytime I read a topic related to IBB, a name comes to mind, Big B1.
I used to feel disgust for voicing your opinion, but today I tried to think about all you always say/compliment him about.
Its really amazing to see that in truth he i.e babangida has unique abilities to rule Nigeria, but I again think that all other Generals that ruled us also had same character, the only touch to his regime was; Mariam his wife and their many economic policies that never really had much effect other than advertisements.




He was decisive just like others
brutal just like others
murderous just like others
but unlike others he was handsome and his wife was also pretty.
EVIL GENIUS.

THE TOPIC IS A PURE LIE. Christian youths did not attack Muslims, they only demolished a mosque.
so if your belonging e.g residence,office is demolished or destroyed by fellow citizens, you have not yet been attacked.
, some people sha.
instead of condemning such acts and repraisals you say irrelevancies and unsoothing statements.



I just hope things around Nigeria gets resolved sooner
1-kidnappings in the east
2-militancy in the south
3-royalty assasination attempts in the north
4-irresponsible N.F.A./N.F.F.
5-a broke N.N.P.C.
6- , and the list seems endless.

[size=14pt]Fifa was warned of Nigeria World Cup match-fixing fears[/size]


Nigeria went out of the World Cup in the first round, losing twice
Fifa was warned before this year's World Cup of fears that Nigeria's team could be vulnerable to match-fixing, the BBC has learned.
An investigator for Uefa raised concerns, including suspicions over betting patterns.
Nigeria went out of the tournament in the first round, losing to Greece.
World governing body Fifa does not deny receiving a warning but say it has "no indication" of match-fixing in any World Cup matches.

Anger
BBC Newsnight understands an investigator working with Uefa first became suspicious during qualifying rounds of the World Cup.
It is alleged that certain Nigerian players came forward and said their team was vulnerable to manipulation.
On the morning of Nigeria's first match, he alerted Fifa's new Early Warning System, set up to look for signs of match-rigging, of his concerns.

Hundreds of matches across Europe - from Champions League qualifiers to cup and league games - are currently being scrutinised.
German journalist Christian Bergmann also had a call just before the first Nigerian game of the tournament from a Uefa contact who said there were suggestions that "some players from the Nigerian team are actually involved in some form of manipulation".


In their second game of the tournament, Nigeria were strong favourites to beat Greece and took an early 1-0 lead.
But after just 33 minutes Nigeria had a man sent off and Greece subsequently scored their first ever World Cup goals to win 2-1.
After their elimination, Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan was so angry with the poor performances that he suspended the whole team from international competition. He later reversed that decision following a complaint from Fifa.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/newsnight/8805137.stm
stupid news.
if anything was rigged or fixed then it was abetted by the referee of our match against greece.
wonder the motive behind this useless news sef.

Its funny no one ''yet'' on nairaland is seeing it as babaric. If someone came out to say the Ifa oracle or Okija predicted spain to win or holland to win, many would accuse us of backwardness,unscientific, unreasonable and unreliable.
Just because its being conducted by a german and singaporean, its o.k.

@tkb417

take it easy man.

Its not an anhilation debate.

Easily easily sofry sofry table your argument nah. no need abuse everyone.


@topic,
On titles made
FED-EXPRESS(federer) wins

On current form i.e. rankings
NADAL rules

On records
I guess Nadal also rules(note I said I guess)
reasons:
1.first to win both roland garros and wimbledon at same time, back to back, and already done it twice.
2.first to beat fed on both courts of clay and grass
3.first to win the olympics
N.B
all the record is a comparism with federer.

if you gat more records of either player kindly state it

So on my own take, Nadal is better.

Moreover I LOVE NADAL.
Sports › Re: Ghana Vs Uruguay: [2 - 4] On Penalties After [1 - 1] Draw @ World Cup 2010 by usbcable(m): 11:01am On Jul 05, 2010
For every offence in football their is a price to be paid,

#stop a goal bound move, you get either a red card or yellow card depending on circumstances.
#handle a ball in the 18-yard box - a penalty is awarded against your team and if it was a delibrate handball you get a red card.
And these what happened.the only difference was it was the last move of the game.
So unless FIFA changes the rule then LUIS SUAREZ has done no evil more than the price he paid - a red card, penalty against your team and his missing the next match automatically.

If am wrong kindly state the correct rule.
until then Suarez remains a regular footballer,nothing more.
Sports › Re: Ghana Vs Uruguay: [2 - 4] On Penalties After [1 - 1] Draw @ World Cup 2010 by usbcable(m): 10:50am On Jul 05, 2010
Suarez being called a cheat is so ludacris.
if suarez is a cheat then gyan that missed the PK is a stupid idiot for missing it.
turn the tables around imagine forlan trying to score a dying minute goal and gyan handballs and then suarez losses the resulting spotkick.thereafter ghana wins the penalty shootout.
would all ya' cheat mongers be saying same.

Suarez has no preknowledge of the future, or did he 'jazz' asamoah into lossing the PK?if gyan score, shey all of una go still dey shout all these fallacy.
