If lekki is below sea level what you think the whole ND is?

@sjeezy8

NigerDelta is a Delta formed when rivers flow into a body of water. The beach we see in Lagos today is as result of Niger Delta

Lekki is not a Delta yet its flooded.

If u live in Lekki, run for your dear life and move into the mainland. The only thing connecting Lekki to the Mainland is the 3rd Mainland bridge, and other bridges ooooo. what if,

MARINE TRANSGRESSION AND REGRESSION

Geologically speaking, Lekki is below Sea Level, soon it would become fully submerged and probably be a reference for geologists.

You cannot stop nature from playing its role. The sea-level is beginning to rise relative to the land.

All those living in Lekki, pls be warned and those planning to buy lands there, pls think twice. Imagine how Lekki would be in the next 5-10 years,

Fashion / Re: Which Would You Prefer, A Beaded Necklace Or A Gold Chain? by zaliya(f): 3:55pm On Mar 29, 2010
I love gold chains. but BEADS are indeed classy.

Beads have been in existence for ages and was seen a sign of wealth and higher ranks.
Queens and Princesses are known to were beads a lot.

Dreads is actually time-saving, i don't have to spend a whole day in the salon.
Fashion / Re: Your Wife Or Mum On Dreadlocs ? by zaliya(f): 12:48pm On Mar 15, 2010
@Shilling, Nothing is wrong with dreads, but not everyone thinks the way you do.
Am presently on dreads but some think its weird especially if you are a married woman. and i don't think its right for them to feel that way. it's my style and my hubby likes it too!!!

Fashion / Re: What Cream Do I Use On My "Rough" Face? by zaliya(f): 3:47pm On Mar 12, 2010
@ Poster,
Some few weeks back, I had this same experience, but its all over now.
I think you are having a skin irritation probably due to some cream, soap or anything ranging from your cosmetics ( powder)
I had to use Clean and Clear astrigent, ( It's very good!!!) D & R skin lightening and moisturising soap , and D&R skin lightening and moisturising lotion for extra dry skin. (It's got shea butter).
Do not use any harsh soap. It could dry up your face.
Then check your powder applicator ( THE FOAM). you may just have to change it.
Steam your face once in a while too.
TV/Movies / Re: Some More Ways To Know You Are Watching A Nigerian Film by zaliya(f): 3:06pm On Mar 09, 2010
U can know a Nigerian film when:

- The rich man and his wife must wear 'Agbada, Chieftancy, red cap and Boubou respectively and just stay at home doing nothing.

- baskets painted on one side are used as a shields from arrows or bullets for their 'so -called' epic movies

- 'anaconda snake' is made from chair- leather obviously stuffed with fibre and cotton wool.

- a woman is slapped up by her husband, she ends up in an orthopedic hospital with Plaster- of Paris (P.O.P) on the hand and neck!

- Jim Iyke suddenly becomes TOTALLY blind by flames from gas cooker and suddenly regains his sight after being hit by a vehicle

- Liz Benson suddenly starts living under a'Lagos Bridge' after being thrown out by her only son Richard Mofe- Damijo. (she probably never had friends or relatives in her lifetime in that movie).

- Saint Obi actually puts grenades and blows up his vehicle and in the same film tells the veiwers that he sacrificed HIS ONLY VEHICLE to meet our expectation. Eeyah!!!!! sad

Joan4427:

My little niece wanted bananas. Her dad said, "Honey, the bananas are for your sister who has worms so she can take her medication."

The little girl thought for a while and blurted, "I have earthworms in my tummy. Please give me the bananas now!"

grin grin grin

Reminds me of when my 4 year old daughter said to her dad. ' Daddy you will poopooo ANACONDA when mummy gives u worm medicine'

Remember this nursery rhyme:

My father had a little dog, its name was bingo B-I-N-G-O,

My kids interpretation:

My father WAS a little dog, HIS name was Bingo B-I-N-G-O.

They scream and sing it with all innocence.

My kid were going through my wedding pictures. They looked and searched through to see if they appeared (of course they weren't born then). With rage and sobs, they screamed ' Naughty Mummy, You left us at home and went to do wedding with daddy, you didn't take us along, we will not play with you again'.


Last Christmas, my five year old son went outside the house to watch his uncle Sam throw 'BANGER' (knock-outs). I shouted at him asking 'what is your uncle doing?' He screamed back at me from outside 'Uncle Sam is BANGING'.

My sister was confiding in her husband in the presence of her lil daughter about her car which she said that her mechanic had destroyed. Few days later when the Mechanic( Uncle Victor) came around, her daughter said to him ' Uncle Victor, You have destroyed my mummy's car, when I grow up You will never repair my car for me'.

Everyday I get back from work, my 5 year- old son and 3 year-old daughter would always welcome me with ' Mummy welcome, how waz ur week? how was ur day? and how waz ur ENGLISH? what did u buy for me?'


My husband was running late for his exams on saturday and had to storm out of the house, while my kids ran after him and said 'Daddy, buy us ice cream, I had to hush them down, told them to tell him 'All the best' and they shouted ' Daddy buy us ALL THE BEST.

Education / Re: Why Is The English Language Skill Of Nigerian Graduate So Appalling? by zaliya(f): 4:11pm On Jun 24, 2009
you know why?

1. Reading habits have dwindled.

2. A typical Naija youth would prefer to rent an 'Aki and Pawpaw' film to reading a few novels during holidays.

3. Too many Naija slangs e.g 'nothing spoil' to fill up the gaps

4. , even our teachers and lecturers ought to be taught.

Lastly, background, as in environment where one grew up. To say but a few

Family / Re: Ladies: Can You Be A Housewife? by zaliya(f): 11:10am On Jun 24, 2009
One of the most important jobs in the world is to raise a child to become a responsible grown-up. Dear ladies there is nothing boring about being a housewife. If you made kids please be available to BE with them, wipe their nose, sing to them, read to them, kiss their boo-boos, make meals for them introduce them to the world etc etc.

HOUSEWIFE AND HOUSEKIDS.

A career-wife would also do these.
I guess the kids should go to school. At least not staying at home to become housekids.

Family / Re: Ladies: Can You Be A Housewife? by zaliya(f): 3:00pm On Jun 23, 2009
Please irrespective of the fact that one works or better still a career woman doesn't make one less a WIFE. The bone of contention here is are you a career-wife or a House- wife.

I can't imagine a lady as a medical doctor sitting at home and practicing medicine only on her KIDS and husband!!!!! she needs to get up and go add value to her nation.

See the likes of MADAM CECELIA IBRU. If she decided to sit at home all in the name of 'housewifing', there wouldn't have been any OCEANIC BANK today.  Let's add value to ourselves and to the society as women.

Family / Re: Ladies: Can You Be A Housewife? by zaliya(f): 3:50pm On Jun 22, 2009
NEVER AGAIN!!!

I got married soon after NYSC and was 'automatically' made a HOUSE WIFE for close to 5 years due to child bearing. This period was not it at all.
I had to take a post-graduate course (with the support of my husband) in order for my mind to stay alive.

Guess what? I've resigned from being a HOUSE WIFEY to a HOME MAKER .I now have a job, a career, and I still do take care of my home.

I feel the word 'HOUSEWIFE' is just a euphemism for 'HOUSEHELP'.
