Just like how us took over yuglosovia,Libya,Iran, Afghanistan,Syria etc in a day

If you were following the relationship between Russia and Ukraine after the fall of the former Soviet Union, you'd understand my statement better. Everything is not about the US. The obsession with the US on this platform is crazy.

Lmao... what a thread.

We all thought it would take Russia a day or two to take over Ukraine. It's going to a month now.

Nice one!

OP, by "entire Dubai", you mean Nigerians in Dubai?

Toktee:
New guy....... Hmm mmm these parasites at it again, what happened to the old guy ahbi you are done wrecking him financially already?.

I come in peace....

You thought only guys had the right to change lovers? Surprise, everyone does it. When it ain't working out, you move on. Stop shaming people for the same thing you do. For all you know, it could be the guy that left.

Still on this?

Regarding the FFK stuff, he clearly said it happened before she got married. So even if that's true, what's the big deal? Am I missing something?

onuman:
"Everybody left the room with broken body parts."

In other words, somebody was killed during the stampede, that's how everybody left the house with broken body parts.
Or you wanted to say that everybody left the house with part of his/her body broken?
Poor use of English language to end the story.

You know there are better ways to correct people without disparaging them, right?

No, the sentence ain't wrong. It's only ambiguous. That means it could be interpreted in more than one way. It's called syntactic ambiguity. It's just like saying "he left with a broken nose." That wouldn't necessarily mean he had someone else's nose with him. Again, syntactic ambiguity does not imply the sentence or expression is ungrammatical, it only means it could be misunderstood if the context is not clear. In this case, the context is very clear.

In the correction you supplied, you used the singular word "part" without an article, and the rule says the word goes with an article when it refers to an individual unit and without any when it refers to a portion.

redsun:
I got your point loud and clear. The problem among africans is that they think they are good enough to keep on top of even the basics.

Well, I don't know about that.

redsun:
Is there any time electricity supply has ever been normal in nigeria?

The word "normal" is relative. In Nigeria, the frequent power outages could be termed "normal".

Nice mountain pass.

Oh... is this the popular Milliken Hill in Enugu?

Oh... I wouldn't know. I assume that's a good thing.

Depending on the specie, yes.

CumOnHer:
Your analogies are not agreeable.

Ok

CumOnHer:
NO

Ok.

The guy won use him comment wound you

Oh! Please, tell me what it means. I probably need to go back and fight.

CumOnHer:
Do you mean "you are a woman" places certain limitations on them? Care to give examples.
You bringing in gender obligations. Such as a woman has what and what not she is obligated to?.. I think it will only gets more complicated and distasteful when women begin to tell us what & what not they are obligated to.
To make things much easier for everyone, women must accept the fact that they are women.

Hhmm... but your comment doesn't really show you read mine at all. You just said the opposite of what I wrote. I said they're not disputing the fact that they are women but only challenging the idea that they're not supposed to do some things cause they're women. You think a woman wants to be called a man? I gave an example using a man since the question came from a man.

That expression when taken out of context becomes useless. To understand why a lady wouldn't want to be told that, you must put into context. And people use that expression mostly to tell women what to do and what not to do thus the reason it has become limiting. A lady who just gave birth to twins wouldn't be upset when you tell her "dear, you're indeed a woman!" But when a lady desides to japa like everyone else or pursue her career to the fullest or contest for SUG president or speak up in public like everyone else or do any of those things men think are reserved for them, that's when you hear people say "you're a woman" or "don't you know you're a woman?" The person speaking is the one placing the limitation, the person objecting is only reacting to it.

You get it now?

Context and intentions get them upset, not the fact that they are women. In other words, they don't have issues with being women. Rather, they have issues with the idea that a woman isn't supposed to say/do whatever it is they said/did that made you make the statement. You'd naturally drag me to the grave if I say to you, "you're supposed to pay your girlfriend's school fees. You're a man." It's not because you're not a man but because you don't think being a man makes it your duty to pay a girl's school fees. I thought this was obvious though.

I'm sorry, I don't know what that means.

Hope you're not insulting me.

Try and be watching judge Judy on CBS reality.
If you don’t specifically buy something in somebody’s name, you can retrieve it if there’s proof you are the one that bought it...people sue their partners all the time for not releasing what they gave them after break up and they always win.... a man even asked for 5000$ b00b job he paid for after the woman started cheating....

being vindictive after breakup is a normal human behavior....it’s not the best, but it is what it is....

I'd like to believe you didn't have time to read my comment properly. I said except if there are paperworks with terms that permit that. In case you missed that bit, such paperworks include receipts, marriage certificates, or any other thing that states it's yours or could be taken back. And even with those, it's still arguable. I don't need Judy to teach me basic law.

Food?

Technically, nobody has the right to take back a gift if not offered except there are paperworks with terms that permit that. If you forcefully collect an item you gave to someone as a gift, you're robbing the person probably just cause you're stronger. Otherwise, an item you gave to someone as a gift is no longer yours. This has nothing to do with being broke or otherwise, and it doesn't only apply to romantic relationships.

That's a dove. The reflection of the sky on your window glass confused it. Poor thing.

Where is the hope?

This is a 2013 article.

I'm beginning to believe there's so much hate in Africa. That probably explains why some of my African friends always find reasons to fight each other or tell me why I shouldn't be talking to some other Africans. I mean, how can you love others if you don't love yourself?

Congratulations!

The lost that can never scratch the billionaire

That's more than 17% of 1 billion. Saying it can never scratch him cause he's a billionaire would be overreaching, don't you think?

Kazeem47:
Most celebrities live a different life outside social media.Most are passing through one problem to another.

Everybody is passing through one problem or another. She probably lost someone.

Can you tell us her exact words, sir? I'm asking cause I'm having a hard time believing your story. However, if true, your story is indeed a sad one. What is even sadder is you using the actions of a curious 9 year-old kid who was probably spoilt by a grown up man to score points against a gender or undermine the seriousness of rape.
