hensben: SAF dropped rooney during his last season, moyes make him boss again.

Real United fans understand Rooney is a big problem in this new look utd setup.
Thanks to Moyes, he rejuvenated his ridiculous relevance.
Because Rooney is not flexible to being played out of position and consequently undroppable, he's seen the exit of good players like Kagawa and Welbeck and already threatening the position of another excellent talent in Juan Mata.
If LvG can be decisive nd ruthless in fixing the Rooney conundrum then he'd be more than half way to being half the man SAF was.

Welbeck in suit and heading into Arsenal's dressing room. As a United fan, my heart breaks

I expect a very lenient sentence from Judge Masipa come Oct 13th. There's no point putting this chap away on manslaughter conviction. The deed is done. Reeva is dead and no form of justice can bring her back.
I know public sentiments and sympathy tilts massively to Steenkamp family. That's understandable. A family lost a precious and beautifull gem. But there's also a very good chance Oscar was indeed telling the truth. At any rate let's leave the final verdict to Oscar and his maker. But in the mean time, I support any sentencing that'd see him back on the tracks in Rio doing the only thing he knows best - Running.

Toks2008: @OP,yes she is still cheating and that can lead to a break in her real affair.

My marriage got destroyed as a result of emotional cheating.

My ex got to know one guy who she said she was matchmaking wth her friend but gradually got carried away and the guy will chat wth her for long on other issues to the extent that he strted shown interest in her.

He would call her on phone for long period dat when i call her,the one wll be engaged.

I sat her down to dscuss it wth her statn emphatcally dat im not against her havn friends male or female but should maintain proper decorum and again i dont like the fact that this guy cals her by the maiden name but shld addrrss her as Mrs,afterall he knew her aftr she got marid. But just like every lady willsay "HE IS JUST A FRIEND" And guys should watch it whenever their ladies use these words.

To cut the long story short one day,i entered her shop after calin her for mnutes n her phone was engaged and wen she saw me enter,she terminated the call and that nyt for the frst time i decided to check her phone and i realised dat this guy have ben expressn desire for her but rather than put a stop she was enjoying the whole thing and even asked tbe guy to read about her zodiac while in actual sense she ought to tell the guy to read about her friend.

Why im wrting all these sermon is to pkint out the ease of gettn involved in an emotional affair expcially bythe ladies and bfore they say jack,they become attached.

I cald her to xplain the crazy chat and she jst waved it aside and i smashed the android phone and after rhat the marriage began crumbling until it finally broke up wen i dscovered even a worse one on a facebk chat of hers accidentally where a guy wrote that he called her to make him cum

This is a tragic case of emotional infidelity because all she always say is they are juat friends and i kept wondering why she always get herself nvolved with dirty minded irresponsible low lifea as friends.

If u are a lady in a commited affair please avoid getting close to any male other than ur man to avoid emotional infidelity cos that will destroy your affair big time and most times the guy u got so attached with may not be into you as you are made to believe.

Watch it

Uncle toks, I always feel for you each time you use your ex-wife's infidelity to educate us the younger folks on matters of the heart
I followed your painful separation and the eventual dimise of your then 11yrs marriage (op I got that right). One can only hope you've healed completely from such heart ache. If you haven't then you've got to try harder. You seem a decent guy enough so go out and meet people.
Lastly, quit giving her d satisfaction that you're still grieving for loosing her by using her as a case in point in your submissions here. She doesn't deserve such 'publicity', not after this whole time.
Move on bro, oluwa na your strenght

nitlad: He was never gonna be found guilty, because he's not guilty!!


Mumu prosecution went for premeditated murder. How do you prove this beyond reasonable doubt without solid evidence to buttress it?


Beauty of the Rule Of Law!

Pally weldone jare. Most sensible post so far. The law is what it is. As far as I'm concerned, Prosecution team bungled this. He could have gone for manslaughter (culpable homicide) and achieved a faster trial process with some credible assurance of a guilty verdict.
But no. He got intoxicated by the fallacy of the case as well as misconstrued favourable public backing and hence was caught in the whirlwind of media frenzy. Expectedly he was getting all d accolades for his courtroom theaterics.

But the brilliant Judge Masipa exposed the poverty of the prosecution's submission. There is such a phrase as 'beyond reasonable doubt'. The burden of proof of murder is on d prosecution and not Oscar. If followed the sentencing today and d various reasons Judge Masipa aduced you'd have no quams with the acquittal on the murder charge.
Let's see what tomorrow brings. But I feel he's gonna go down on the culpable homicide charge. Already d Judge has given a lot of indication in this regard. She called her a poor witness and being evasive during cross examination.
At any rate the trial is a victory for the erudite high court Justice, the south African Criminal Justice system and d south African people in general.

Dreambeat: I think it was a premeditated murder.How could you be at home with your girlfriend,sleeping on the same bed for that matter and you heard a noise for which you felt came from a burglar.You did not call out to your girlfriend to know whether the noise you heard was coming from her.You went ahead to shoot.Abeg talk another story.He was not found guilty for murder not because he didnt commit the crime intentionally but just for want of enough evidence for his conviction.The prosecutors probably did not do a good job putting forth the necessary evidence to nail him.

I was gonna have a go at you for your submission, but you redeemed yourself in d last paragraph.

Truth is there's such a phrase as beyond reasonable doubt. The burden of proof of murder is on the prosecution not Oscar. The prosecution on the strenght of what we now know did a shoddy job.

Judge Masipa very brilliantly exposed the poverty in the submissions of the prosecuting counsel.
Oscar may ooze of Reeva's blood, but there's also a slim chance he's telling the truth. For me its too circumtantial to give him the guilty verdict. Culpalble homicide looks an easier route to follow

Its on now, let's see how it wraps up

Dymondgurl: Nse Ikpe Etim

Shitt.
This name has at d time of this quote '119 likes' yet I no sabi who she be
Maybe its time to gradually let nollywood back in again...

Google my man make we yarn small abeg

2sExy1: Wow... thanks, man. It's not easy. I think one thing that worked for or helped me rather was the fact that I could share or speak about it. It took me long to get over it but I am glad I did and I am grateful for the blessings God has brought my way.

Unfortunately, some of these girls only realised their mistakes when it's too late and then want to come back. Mine did everything understand the sun to get me to love her again BUT nothing worked. She didn't believe until she saw me physically and could fill the burning furnace in my eyes when she visited me at school a few years ago.

These days, I just look at them and laugh. I look at them like kids.

If not for God's grace back then, she couldn't have paid dearly for it. But I did make sure I frustrated her psychologically and mentally... until she begged and begged. I didn't forgive her on time though... I did partially but my spirit hadn't until January of this year and that was because she said she is scared I could harm her at anytime.

This was same person who told me that I don't plan ahead...

These things happen for good reasons... it makes us stronger.

One thing I told myself was that she will definitely see me rise from ashes... and I have kept my words till date and with God's help, things has been awesomely working in my favour, though not astronomically, but better than I was. There is a likely bigger catch in my life in the next few months. it's God work and I am give him all the thanks.

Mine happened when I lost my mum and only surviving parent but she didn't care. Man, that girl was damn heartless that I couldn't have felt any regret if I had retaliated.

Well, as it stands now. I don't think any girl can break my heart. I often smile, dust off and move on pretty faster now. But despite all, I still haven't hurt any one of them.

We give God the thanks and Glory bro. It's been a while and a long journey coming through the shackles.

Woww man. Like I submitted earlier, this account is very very consistent with the earlier version. Its a testament to how much hurt you must have gone through. What can I say, congratulations on your recovery

2sExy1: I understand your pain bro. But when one is in love he does crazy things. I have been there before and I did almost same thing as the OP years ago. the whole signs were there but i just refused to accept them and move on with my life... when I eventually did, I became hardened that it took me some years to regain balance-- I was almost hating girls. yes, it was that bad and people could sense it from my write up even here on nairaland.

Yes man. I've followed most of your submissions on infidelity esp on d part of women. They're well documented. I remember telling myself at some point when you eventually penned down what transpired, that this was one screwedd up and hurt brother
Good to see you're gradually but steadily making progress to recovery from that heart wrenching experience
One love man

oluwaisaac: I've been there before...and I'm still with her. I'm really teaching her salient lessons as we speak, because, she has to pay for her sins. Well, brother, all you explained above is called 'relationship abuse.' If you deeply love her, there are two ways to leave her, as leaving her is the ONLY option; if you dont, she'll sleep with your security guard later and appologise, quote me on this. So
1. Draw her closer and punish her with 'love.' Call me later, I will tell you what I mean. By this, she'll be leaving you heartbroken with deep scars!
2. Completely reconcile with her outwardly.....draw her closer...act nice.....then, when she buys it, totally ignore her for no just cause and move on. Never say a word to her, no matter what, under any circumstances. Bear your loses as lessons.
Finally, stop that self-destruct lifestyle with red wine. Get a life and move on. What is not yours is not yours. There are almost 7billion people on earth o. If u luv Maths, u'll kno wat I mean.
Shalom!

I may not agree with you on the ways to drop a cheating partners asss, but I ado gree that once a partner cheats, its a deal breaker. There's no other way around it. Not counselling not nothing, zero.
They'll always cheat again. I'm alarmed at the shiit ds Op had to take granted of that ds story is valid.

Leadership, for the purpose of this piece can be seen as a social process or action by which one person leads a group in order to actualize a common goal. Hence, in every lead­ership, decisions are bound to be made by the leader in the interest of the followers to make sure the stipulated common goals are achieved. Going further in the light of what has been said above, every leadership, be it democratic or autocratic is always fraught with decision making efforts which of course are expected to end up in the actualiza­tion of desirable goals or otherwise.


In the Nigerian state today, ordinary Nigerians can hardly know when a leadership decision is made that’s devoid of political intentions and propaganda. It is very difficult these days to see the rightness or wrongness of decisions made by the presidency be­cause some political elements have taken pleasure in infusing politics into these leadership decisions. Hence, they increasingly promote political topsy-tur­vy among average Nigerians. They have succeeded in making it difficult for many people to make informed opinions about the leadership of President Jonathan. Yes, this can’t be denied. If you want to find out, go to any of our newspaper stands or outlets across the country and hear people’s opinions of President Jona­than and I bet you will be forced to pray for tempo­rary deafness. It is at such places that you witness the level of political confusion many Nigerians (educated and non educated) have been thrown into. I have ex­perienced this and I was not surprised, not even in the least. Even when the masses seem to be convinced on the rightness or otherwise of decisions taken by the presidency, some unscrupulous political elements will – because they have unrestrained access to the media – find a way of twisting and bending these de­cisions to score political points.
How do you assess a leadership system when every­thing is being politicized in the country? How can an average Nigerian make an informed opinion of the present Jonathan-led administration bereft of some sort of ethnic colourations? The above were the two questions that struck my mind the last time I visited a newspaper stand at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka where I witnessed two lecturers arguing over the ban on printing electoral materials outside the country by the president. Let me not delve into the details of how their argument faired because that is not what this piece intends to achieve.

In other words, judging critically from what has been happening since the inception of Jona­than’s administration, it can be said that leader­ship decisions and inconsequential politicking are well embedded in and married to each other. To Nigerian politicians, everything is politics and politics is everything. Hence, everything, for them must be politicized; leadership deci­sions must be driven by their political interests; the decisions must have all the trappings of po­litical self-centeredness. Our politicians seem not to be interested in the rightness or wrongness of any leadership decision so far as it is not coming from their own political umbrella. In their eyes, a leader can never be right, can never be seen as good, and can never be commended unless such leader is clothed in their party’s regalia and insig­nia. It’s a bad thing!

Since Mr. Jonathan got hold of the mantle of leadership in Nigeria, hardly has he received any commendation for any of his decisions from leading members of the opposition party. Hardly has he been given a “thumbs up” by the opposition party for any action of his even when some of these actions and decisions are perceived to be sound by the majority of Nigerians. Again, scarce has been, on the side of the opposition, the much need­ed good followership which is expected to go in tandem with good leadership. The questions every well meaning Nigerian should ask are: Has President Jonathan never got anything right in his administration? Just a single thing! Has he ever got an iota of credit – let us even forget the distinctions – since 2011?

I believe and I do hope many believe too that Nigerians are too mature for the kind of opposition we experience today. We have gone farther from the era of “Tom and Jerry” poli­tics in Nigeria. I think an opposition party whose sole aim is to fault any administrative actions of a leader regardless of whether some of these actions deserve commendation or kudos portends a bad omen for a nation state. In as much as criticism forms the nucleus of every opposition party’s activi­ties, propaganda and machinery, it will be baseless, ignoble and shameful for the opposition – the umbrella under which the masses may seek cover when they deem necessary – to direct their political arsenal at the polity with unfair criti­cisms against the president.

Many cases abound where the opposition deliberately criti­cized the effort of the President blindly for reasons which I feel are not healthy. However, I would like to go with the cases of the most recent elections in the country. The Ekiti gubernatorial election which went in favour of Mr. Ayodele Fayose (PDP) on June 21st , 2014 and Osun State governor­ship election which went the way of Rauf Arebgesola (APC) on August 9, 2014. In the case of Ekiti, the national lead­ership of the opposition party, APC, cried wolf and accused PDP of rigging what the world saw as one of the most credi­ble gubernatorial elections ever held in Nigeria till date. They criticized that effort by the President even when the freeness and fairness of the poll was there to be seen by all. Without any fear or favour, I make bold to say that I consider that ac­tion from the APC national leadership a slap in the face of Nigerians. And in order for them to endear themselves to the common Nigerian, they should learn to accept defeat when it comes because it is one of the qualities of a good fighter .


On the other hand, when Rauf Aregbesola of APC defeated Omisore of PDP, the national leadership of PDP congratu­lated Aregbesola for defeating their own candidate. That is maturity! You don’t show senseless bitterness and aggres­sion whenever you lose in any of life’s endeavours . This my advice to the politicians!
What politicians have failed to accept, especially the aged ones who have failed to kiss politics good bye in Nigeria, is that Nigerians have gone past the sixties and seventies. This is 2014! We have many educated heads now unlike what we had in the sixties and seventies.

Therefore, much as this has been said, I feel it is high time Nigerians learnt that you don’t vote one in as a leader and re­fuse to give him a modicum of motivation. We have to learn how and when to give commendation. Leadership positions are occupied by mortals not gods. Therefore, President Jona­than is a mortal and not a god. Hence we should not expect him to get everything right but for the ones he has got right let us show appreciation because leadership is not a tea party.

joanana: inception

Inception was real dop£.
Too bad a lot of folks dismissed it cos it went over their heads.
For instance a lot people thought the end was a cliff hanger but it wasn't. Took about half a dozen rewatch to nip that part.
Great stuff of art
