₦airaland Forum

naijaking1: Yes, myopic, because you couldn't free yourself from primitive ethno-regional bias. The first step towards correcting many of the chronic ills of our nation is for some controlling agency to at least take responsibility/blame for it. I know you may not understand, but until an official wakes up in the morning to apologize to Nigerians for the power failure of the previous night, we're certainly going nowhere. Instead of Nigerians to accept blames, they form a circular firing squad and shift the buck around, with the result that at the end of the day, nothing changes, nothing improves, and nobody learns anything.
You certainly have a right to voice your own personal opinion, but you have no right to convert this forum into an all out Yoruba promoting platform. Over my 6-7 years affiliation with N/L, I have seen moderators come and go, but you my friend is one of the most rabid anti-non-yoruba moderators ever to walk the earth.
The result is that the quality of discussion(intellectual)in the forum has continued to decrease as the Dayokanus, Bluethoots, Eko-Iles, oduasoljas of this forum have increased. As a result of this, reactionary ethnic promotions and bias has become the order of the day for other tribes in Nigeria, especially Igbo contributors. Also, you seem to confuse yourself as an ACN operative vs N/L moderator.

Finally, why do you think it's more important to make GEJ resign than to ask the opposing muslim Boko Haram operatives to give peace a chance. You have never hidden your disdain for anything and anybody who is not your own tribal stock, and that's a big shame. So, if GEJ resigns, then you'll rather have Tinubu or Aregbasola as president?

Hmm, very weighty allegations i must say. OAM4J has always come across as a very decent fellow unlike his contemporaries including our Poster of the year - who thankfully seems to have gone on self imposed exile, the small price for a successful campaign of deception - who constantly emit the pungent odour of unapologetic closet bigots. I've however found the comfort in which the worse tribalists on this board have been accommodated startling.

^^ PH isnt what i'll call a 'quiet' City, in terms of 'hustle and bustle' in 9ja, after Lagos for me its PH (I stand corrected). I've only visited Enugu but I think its what you're looking for. Owerri is also a very nice well planned town but falls short in the area of huge shopping malls.

OAM4J: No, no one has told me I've failed. It does not matter if you think so, it will only be your respected opinion, until the owner of the site thinks so.

So wait until Admin complains and holds me responsible for frequent tribal jibes and the ever increasing number of bigots in this section and see if I will open my mouth like GEJ to accept the blame. Then you can advice me to resign.

No one has told Jonathan that he's failed either (at least non one that actually matters!) it doesnt matter if 99% of those in the SW and North think so. Most of the criticisms he's faced have been extremely naive and in most cases than not, fuelled by sectionalism and some sinister desire to pick on a President perceived as being 'weak'.
Wait till your duly elected National Assembly passes a vote of no confidence on his leadership and his cabinet follows suit and see if he'll require OAMJ4 to tell him about resignation!

OAM4J: He should take the blame as the C in C for the security lapses in all Boko Haram bombings too and do us a favour by tendering his resignation letter. It is an honorable thing to do.

You should take the blame as the Mod for the frequent tribal jibes and ever increasing number of bigots this section has been continuously sprouting and do us all a favour by tendering your resignation letter. It would be most honourable, or does anyone need to tell you you've Failed? How do I sound?

Give them 48hrs and if none of the Abu Qaqa's come out to deny this, then it would be worth reading. For now just archive it first.

Why not apply to IMSU so maybe you can make a 2.1 and then go on to make a first class at the Law school like that pretty Igbo girl from that 'unprestigious' state university? Heard they've got great lecturers over there. If its name you want then why not just apply to Oxford or Harvard? Ok I get it now, you just want to brag to your co Jambitos that you attend Nigerias 'Premier' university and you believe thats worth One full year of your life abi? Goodluck BTW how old are you?

The best part of this entire episode is reading the reaction of ordinary South Africans to this apology, so refreshingly funny.

Is there any other brand of sugar available in the market? Whoever owns this st louis must be making a killing, this brand of sugar seem to have had a semi monopoly ever since i can remember, they havent even bothered to change the packing over a period of close to 30years (i stand corrected) I cant recall how many times i've had to chase out those smelly tiny nimble ants from those blue packs that are always inadequate in doing the one thing they ought to do best; keeping ants out. I hope this forgery wakes whoever are the owners up, some innovation is overdue.

What part of Warri is called Ika South?

^^^ change it to what, Obasanjo abi  Yaradua?

A woman who claimed she was three months
pregnant ‘gave birth’ at JFK Airport in New York – to 'a stash of heroin'.
Nigerian national Afolake Awoyemi caught the
attention of a U.S. Customs and Border Protection
inspector as she waddled off an Air France flight
from Paris.
The 42-year-old, wearing a loose-fitting garment,
was asked if she was pregnant, and she allegedly
replied that she was expecting, Homeland Security
special agent John Moloney stated in a complaint
filed in Brooklyn Federal Court.
Destination: When Awoyemi arrived at JFK
airport  she attracted the attention of
a customs inspector
However the inspector noticed that Awoyemi
apparently appeared nervous and so she was taken
for a pat-down search, according to the New York
Daily News.
During the search a bulge was allegedly found in
Awoyemi’s groin area and so officers went ahead
with a partial strip-search,

When she removed her undergarments, pellets
containing brown powder allegedly began to drop
from her groin area, which were later tested positive for heroin.
She was then taken for X-rays, which revealed the
woman had more heroin pellets stashed in her
intestinal tract, officers claim.
She allegedly passed about 25 pellets of heroin by
the end of the day, using a special high-tech
commode that sanitises the incriminating evidence,
which customs officials refer to as the ‘Drug Loo’.
She was also administered a pregnancy test, which
revealed she is not expecting.

Awoyemi, who was recovering in hospital, is due to
be brought before a federal magistrate today.
The drugs she was alleged to have been harbouring
could have a street-value of around $20,000.
While she had apparently swallowed just 25,
experienced drug mules have been known to
swallow up to 200 pellets, which a spokesman
suggested indicates Awoyemi may have been on her maiden voyage.

Who said something about Nigerian men being bold? Try our women!

@OP
Frankly, u don't sound sincere. This sounds more like a traffick pulling gimmick than some altruistic project. How can you have just one song? Is that all you know yourself?

SimonAndal:
(don't ask me why 'cause frankly it's non'ya business)

Fine, let's mind our businesses then.

Would u be generous enough to post the source of this interview? It would be appreciated.

^^ I kinda agree with you.

Google just rolled out a streamlined privacy policy
that consolidates your personal information for use
across various Google-owned services. Despite some
criticism and accusations of an Orwellian Big
Brother scenario, the updated policy's goal, says
Google, is "to create one beautifully simple and
intuitive experience."
There's no denying that the new policy doesn't make
it any easier to stay off the digital grid, so here are
some things you can do to minimize what Google
knows about you.
1. Disable automatic log-in. If you're perpetually
logged into your Google account, you might have
enabled a password-storing feature in your browser,
or at some point selected the Google Accounts
option to stay signed in. On the Accounts
Preferences page, you can disable this feature. If you
still seem to be automatically signed in each time
you surf the web, you can go into your browser's
privacy settings and clear all cache and cookies.
2. Opt out of ads based on interests and
demographics. On Google's Ad Preferences page,
you can edit or remove the interests Google has
determined for you or opt out entirely. You can also
find mild entertainment (and, if you're an optimist,
relief) in the fact that Google's inferred demographic
information about you is often wildly incorrect.
3. Use an anonymizing tool. Companies like
Anonymizer offer a variety of services to keep your
personal information secure by routing all your
online activity through an encrypted tunnel. A yearly
subscription costs $79.99, though the company does offer a free two-week trial and a 30-day money back guarantee. There are also free alternatives like TOR.
(PHOTOS: A History of Google Doodles)
4. Enable private browsing mode. Most browsers
feature a "private" mode, where any online activity
won't be tracked. (If you haven't yet abandoned all
Google products, the company's Chrome web
browser offers "incognito mode." This means the
browser will not store search history or cookies,
which house data such as sites you visit, preferences and login information. According to Google, this method is particularly useful "if you're planning a surprise birthday present or party," but it could also help keep your information off the record.
5. Turn to resources other than Google. It's
tough to imagine, but there ARE search engines and other mobile and web services completely
unaffiliated with Google. Ixquick, for example, calls
itself "the world's most private search engine."
DuckDuckGo also vows it "does not collect or share
personal information. That is our privacy policy in a
nutshell." And if you're skeptical about Gmail, there
are always plenty of email alternatives, though your
kids or coworkers might mock you for using
outdated providers.
Above all, be aware and educate yourself. If
you're still fearful or at least a bit dubious about
Google's privacy policy, you can read the complete
text here.

The man of God has warned Nigerians flying local airlines in the country to be very prayerful while boarding any flight as, according to him, God has shown him an imminent plane crash.

Prophet Joshua said the crash will not be caused by technical fault but by a security breach.

In his words: “The plane crash, if not averted, will involved one of…
Nigeria’s local flights. I wish to therefore advise Nigerians to pray zealously so that the country will not experience such a disaster, which might claim the lives of many government officials.

As part of measures to avoid being a victim of the crash, people who want to travel by air should always recite Psalm 91 before boarding any aircraft in order to ensure safe land.”

Reading Psalm 91 surely isn't a difficult undertaking is it? Assuming u have a bible that is!

^^Drop this argument, will you? Its beginning to look  like the only reason its still on is to increase your post count! You sound more and more "silly"(as a matter of fact) with every passing post you've made.

Illd be wary of anyone that's got diluminati standing by his side! Gladly with Joe.

MO definitely. Her show's about the only one that's watchable, can't even stand watching Agatha's even if u say Mo acts like a wannabe, then she's doing great being the "be" she wanted to be!

Ibime:
Some people here dey claim first but they came first in class B, C or D!

If you no dey class A, make we hear word jare!

Not all schools grade classes according to intelligence, in my school it made no difference whether u were in A or D all na classes just shared for convenience. One of my the schools i attended even used colour to differentiate classes hence we had JSS 3White, Yellow, Blue etc so which one go be intelligent people class? Ok Oyibo people colour abi - yellow?

My highest position whether na for primary or secondary then was 8th. My position was always gyrating between 8-16 and dont forget to add the 'th', it always made it sound more respectful! As for my WASSCE, I didnt bother as I made all my subjects in SS2 when I sat for my GCE, the rest as they say, is history.

Hehehehe, so dis video done reach Ghana? That video caused commotion in Warri last week and practically closed down a 5 star hotel for 24HRS so they've moved over to Ghana with a different story? People no go stop.

Eh yah. Intelligent piece and one that at least tries to be honest unlike the defiant and unapologetic tone one is used to hearing from the so called Northern intelligentsia. I must admit this almost had me feeling sympathetic (if only that's what they need). Write ups as this that at least attempt to be honest goes a long way to show why most are quick to term Sanusi a bigot! The real causes of the problems of the North are glaring, u don't have to squint to see them.

@PA1982
One question 4 u. Are u a Xtian, Muslim, Atheist,Agnostic or whichever I left out. Your answer might help both of us.
