@Okijajuju, You don't need to score 100% in all your courses to make 5.0 GPA. You need to score 70 % in EVERY course.That will give you an A in each course.You scoring B in just one or two courses may still land you 4.99 GPA depending on the weight of the course involved.e.g having a B in a 1 unit course does not have serious consequences on your GPA. |

Methinks this discussion should start by defining what you call heaven. The heaven that a suicide bomber looks forward to may be different from what a cross bearer or a christian,muslim,budhist,etc looks forward to.
But the common factor is that it is a kind of utopia. Sorry dudes.Wake up. |

mazaje: Where is Toba ? Same thing immediately came to my mind. But this goes beyond that. Mazaje, I am beginning to think that we are yet to understand the Nigerian christian philosophy. Most times they defend their G.O's like the man is just squeaky clean only for them to start saying "let he who has never sinned cast the first stone" when the man's dirty acts are exposed. I think I should spend more time studying why Nigerian Christians are just this gullible.Is it that there is an emotional reward or an assumed spiritual reward to them for acting stewpeed in this kind of obvious case of fraud?A person who spends his whole life "teaching" you to be clean but can not live up to his own teachings is a fraud. Toba,please come and speak now. |

Politics › Re: Ministerial Nominee Jumps In Lagoon. Frustration Or African Juju At Work? by VALIDATOR: 2:36pm On Jul 19, 2011 |
superior1: Just came across this article. Na frustartion or african juju we go call this or outright maddness?
Ministerial nominee jumps into lagoon Font size: FRANCIS SUBERU, MURITALA AYINLA AND OLAJIDE OMOJOLOMOJU 19/07/2011 01:10:00 Lagosians watched in awe and consternation yesterday evening at the Leventis bus stop in Marina, Lagos, when a ministerial nominee, Mr. Al-Mustaim Alade Abaniwonda, aged 56, dived into the lagoon under mysterious circumstances about 3pm.
He eventually drowned in the lagoon. Abaniwonda was the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senatorial candidate for Lagos East in the April 9, 2011 National Assembly election. According to Abaniwonda’s driver, simply identified as Wasiu, the senatorial candidate, who lost to the incumbent Senator Tunde Ashafa of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) and whose name was among the list of 10 nominees sent to President Goodluck Jonathan for consideration as minister from Lagos State, was coming from a bank on Lagos Island when he told the driver that he was pressed and would need to use the toilet. Wasiu added that all his entreaties and persuasions that his boss should wait until they get to his office, at the CSS Bookshop building in Broad Street, fell on deaf ears.
Wasiu said: “He ate his food after we left the bank and he told me he was going to use a toilet down there. That was all until I heard people shouting. He was still struggling to get out when I got there but he later went down inside the water.” Wasiu was promptly arrested by police officers attached to the Marine Police Division at whose backyard the incident took place. He was not allowed to talk to people afterwards and when National Mirror attempted to talk to the DPO, he bluntly said he was not position to brief the press on the matter.
Eyewitness account has it that when the politician jumped into the river, he was still able to stand upright but he deliberately walked into a deeper portion of the lagoon. A toilet operator, who does not want his name in print said: “We didn’t know what happened in the vehicle before he came down. But when he got to us, he told us he wanted to use our toilet. We were still looking for the key and water when he walked towards the river.
“He took off his jacket, wristwatch, wallet and made for the lagoon side. We were even telling him that is not the toilet, he insisted on going towards other direction. We called him again and he answered in Yoruba saying: Ani mo fe se gaa, meaning, “I want to defecate”. All of a sudden we just saw him in the lagoon.
“I saw him dive into the water. We threw a floater and a tyre at him but he wouldn’t use them. Instead, he struggled to a deeper side of the river. “He was there still floating for about three minutes and luckily a flying boat was on sight. We waved at the boat to help rescue him at the point he was still floating but when the boat arrived, he swam and hid under the last pillar; when the people saw that they went there.” Another eyewitness account said Abaniwonda slipped and fell into the lagoon while going to the toilet. But she confirmed that he obviously frustrated all attempts at rescuing him. She, however, blamed the marine police for their inability to rescue the drowned senatorial candidate, saying they didn’t do anything special to help him.
Her words: “I am disappointed in the marine police. They had their flying boat and swimming jackets in the station, why can’t they jump into the water and pull the man out? At least that is their duty; instead, they were throwing tyres and floaters like ordinary people. Things like this could never have happened in civilised country.” Abaniwonda’s son, who rushed to the scene with some other siblings barely an hour after the incident, told National Mirror that there was nothing in his father’s mood or attitude to suggest he was not happy or was worried about anything. “My mother celebrated her birthday yesterday and he was there happy.
We celebrated together with other family members. If he is still in the water up till now, and you told me it happened about an hour ago, then he must have died because he is diabetic. There is a limit to which his lungs would be able to hold him under water.” Abaniwonda drove in a Toyota Camry car with registration number MU 555 AAA while his son and other siblings who came in two jeeps one of which has the Federal Government registration number FG 527 A52, could not stop crying but were not willing to talk to the press. The Police Public Relations Officer, Lagos State Command, Mr. Jinadu Samuel, who spoke to National Mirror on phone, said he was not aware of the incident but promised to contact the Marine Divisional Police Officer to get adequate brief on the incident.
The Epe-born politician, was a senatorial candidate for Lagos East under the Alliance for Democracy (AD) and the ACN before crossing over to the PDP in 2003 after he sought to contest the senatorial district’s ticket on ACN’s platform but was asked to step down for the eventual winner of the ticket, Hon. Olorunnibe Mamora, Abaniwonda holds a first degree from the University of Ife, (now Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife). He is the founder and managing partner of Alade Abaniwonda & Partners, an investment company, with offices at the CSS Bookshop building, Broad Street, Lagos. The question on the lips of sympathisers was: “What could have made a supposed millionaire leave his family and wealth to commit suicide by jumping into lagoon?”
The answer to this question could only be answered by Abaniwionda himself. Meanwhile, as at the time of filing this report, all efforts to retrieve his corpse from the lagoon have not yielded any positive result as all the searchers have retired for the day, with the intention to continue today. Speaking on the development, the Lagos State PDP Secretary, Mr. Olatunji Shelle, told National Mirror that he was yet to confirm the authenticity of the story, adding that he doesn’t believe that Abaniwonda for any reason could jump into the lagoon.
He said that he was on his way to the police station where the complaint was lodge, adding that until he confirms the incident, he cannot make any comment. The state chairman of the PDP, Setonji Koshoedo in a telephone chat with National Mirror declined comment, saying: “I have no comment. The search is still on, but I cannot comment on that incident for now.” It was a well calculated suicide attempt.So,please stop blaming people for not helping him out of the water. |
Family › Re: I Am Sad by VALIDATOR: 7:40am On Jul 19, 2011 |
@SarahMaria, If he called you the mother of his children,it is because he loves you so much.In our culture,we believe that children are the fruits of a productive marriage.I guess you have to try and understand the Nigerian (black African origin) culture better. If he lied about his age,it is because he must have faced a situation where his real age put him at a disadvantage.He needed the falsified age to forge ahead in life.He means absolutely no harm to you or to your government or the rest of humanity. When I wanted to start public primary school,I was less than the officially admissible age so my parents got me another birth certificate to increase my age.They meant no harm to anybody or the government.They just didn't want a smart kid like me to stay another year at home.
Hold tight to your man and stop worrying over non existing problems. |

Nice post but look at it this way: If you move all Americans out of the US overnight and on the same night you move all Nigerians into the US (That means we now have automatic constant electricity and all the social amenities that they are enjoying in the US). Will we be able to maintain and improve the system there.My answer is NO. Methinks we will quickly run down the system withing a few months or years starting from the very first week.In fact things will depreciate to almost the level that we are in right now in Nigeria.Why? We won't be able to decide who rules at the center. There will be too much favoritism in recruiting who runs which agency.The uni admissions will be run on quota rather than merit system.I hope you are getting the picture. |

Guy,if you are inside her and you hear that her b/f knocks the door, you will have to escape through the window. If he is inside her and you knock the door, you will still be the one to go away. She used you to get over the emotional pains her real man caused her. She is still keeping you to fill the gaps her real man may put in her from time to time. Can't you see you were and are still just a mere tool she uses to satisfy her excessive emotional sexxxual needs? |

beri2: Sometimes, a man cheating does not mean that he has no integrity. He might have married the wrong person due to circumstances beyond his control and remained faithful for a while only to meet his soulmate whom he does not cheat on.
It will surprise you to know that there are a lot of marriages where intimacy is a thing of the past. The man has a woman outside whom he considers his wife. Due to social standing, family etc, the man cannot divorce his wife.
BTW, all men are guilty of cheating because the mere thought of it, i.e lusting after a woman in your mind is cheating. God will see it as adultry, because He is a God that reads the heart.
Any man that has never lusted after another woman other than his wife should please speak up. Well,sorry,I beg to differ. Why would you accuse somebody of a "crime" just because he was thinking of it. Oh ! You have been brainwashed by religion. Please be objective. So,to pay my tithes, I only need to think of it.I don't need to remit the actual money. Talk of double standards. Do you have to swallow it all down hook and sinker? |

I have never,and I never intend in the future to cheat on my wife ! Why are some posts here trying to make it look like it is impossible? It is not that I am not attracted to other ladies.I am. And my wife knows it. In fact, from time to time I meet ladies who I find very sexually attractive and magnetic and also have the opportunity to f**k without ever getting caught but the love I have for my wife and the peace of mind that I desire is stronger than the few o.rgasms that I will enjoy while cheating. |

Here we go again ! Just a few months ago,a Youth Corper serving in Bauchi once came to complain here on NL that he and his friend were almost lynched just because the driver of the taxi they were in suddenly jumped down and shouted that they were criminals. It took the police great effort to rescue them. On a thorough investigation of the case later, the taxi driver couldn't really make any case against them as he had nothing meaningful to say.He himself then faced being arrested and tried for attempted murder,etc. Then the angry mob/villagers later feigned that the taxi driver was mentally unsound and the case died there. Do you know how many innocent Nigerians have been killed through this jungle justice thing? A fair trial is deserved by all, guilty or innocent. |
