Oya show us your real pic and the catfished version

RIP Nwanyi oma.

Anambra my state seem to have buried a lot of its elites of late. We the young generation seriously need to make replacements. Let's glow and break barriers, cos greatness is in us.

#proudlyanambrarian#

Peeps are already geared for the registrations. The banks in school from tomorrow will definitely be overcrowded. But if u smart you can get everything done in time. Goodluck to all prospective zikites

Never knew this before now. Its not fair that important history like this is hidden from the young folks. Like Achebe did before dying, our old men should better start telling us the truth about our past, else the whites tell us all the lies.

Kaduna is termed centre of education or center of learning because of the many tertiary educational institutions in the state. From ABU to NDA to Nat. Teachers Inst. to Nig. Aviation college to Kaduna poly and so on. Kaduna is infact sometimes referred ro as the federal govt bride cos the state is so favoured by the govt.

double0seven: Very stupid explanation and reason for seizing the microphone from a seating governor. They have you a whole 20 million naira. You ought to have rejected it because you should have known there was no way a government can keep as a secret such a huge donation.....

Charly boy is still a boy like his name implies

Following last weekend’s reports that Charles
Oputa (a.k.a Charly Boy) embarrassed
Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State at the
funeral mass of his late father, Justice
Chukwudifu Oputa. The maverick musician, in
this interview, explains what informed his
action, among other things:
BENJAMIN NJOKU
You gave your father a befitting burial. How did
it go?
Everything went fine. We give God the glory. I
feel a sense of relief now. Relief, because the
troubles associated with burial arrangements
have been over. The stress has reduced.
I quit smoking for over five years now, but I
started smoking again about three weeks ago
because I was running mental, preparing for my
father’s rites of passage.
I have had this discussion with him almost a
year ago when I asked him how he would want
to be buried and what would be his
expectations. He replied saying that ‘ I know
that no matter what I tell you now, it would end
up being the Charley Boy show. Even at that, I
would be happy but all I would say is this: don’t
spend too much money.’
This is because he was a simple man nature.
My father was always worried concerning how I
do things because I have never done things in
small measure. I thank God for his mercies that
I was ready for this, mentally and spiritually.
Though I would have wished that God had
given us more time, but that is the reality of life.
I am happy that I am able to give my father a
befitting burial.
Were you happy with the way the burial was
organised?
Nothing good comes easily. I delegated duties
and that was what helped me. But to a large
extent, as an event organiser, I would give
myself a pass mark.
Were you satisfied with the level of state and
federal governments’ participation in the burial?
I set out to bury my father without expecting
anything from anybody.That was why I had
kept saying, after my father’s death, that we
are going to be responsible for his burial rites.
We fixed the date by ourselves and I wasn’t
relying on anybody for anything. But if anybody
wants to be part of the burial
arrangement ,there’s no problem.
But it made headlines last Saturday that you
snatched the microphone from Owelle Rochas
Okorocha, Governor of Imo State, at the funeral
service. What informed your action?
I didn’t embarrass him. You can believe
anything you read from the dailies. But I can’t
go out of my way to embarrass anybody. I only
insisted that I wouldn’t tolerate people with bad
political breath to preside over my father’s
burial rites. The corpse belonged to the Oputa
family, and not the state or federal government.
Being Charley Boy, my action creates a lot of
controversies. I am not a politician and I can
never be one.
I don’t do things the way every other person
would want to do them. My own things are
bound to be a little different. Integrity is my
watchword and when I give you my word, you
can go to sleep. I expect same from people
who deal with me. I didn’t understand why
somebody would graciously choose to assist
us by making a donation to the family and
thereafter, they went on air to announce it.
That was not a gentleman action and it was
what really angered me.
Secondly, three days after my father’s death, I
sounded a note of warning that it won’t turn to
a political thing. You know the kind of father I
had, and what he stood for. I don’t want them
to politicise his burial rites. After they made the
donation, and I never denied that they didn’t
give us money. But I was embarrassed that
they were announcing it over the radio and in
the pages of newspapers.
If you are doing something with the family, first
of all, we are the chief mourner, as well as
Governor Rochas Okorocha, but it would be
proper that they confide in the family in
whatever they were planning to do in respect of
the buruial rites. If there is something we can
bring to the table to enhance it, then it would
be to the credit of the governor. But he didn’t
do that and they were all shifty. We didn’t know
what they were planning, they didn’t care to
know what we were planning.
We learnt Okorocha paid you a visit at your
place?
How can he visit my place when he has my
telephone number? He should know I don’t
reside here (in the village) and I have not
returned home. It’s just a phone call, ‘Charles
where are you? And I would tell him where I am.
After all, he’s always in Abuja. What stopped
him from putting a call across to me?
If he doesn’t know how to reach me even a
truck pushers have my number, how much
more the governor of a state? If he has a
desire to contact anybody, he will do so with
ease. How could he embark on a journey to a
place he is not familiar with? These are the
things we are talking about.
He didn’t deem it necessary to contact the
bereaved family that he was paying us a
condolence visit before embarking on the
journey. And when he came, he talked to one
‘village boy’ who claimed to be representing the
family. What’s all that rubbish for?
Was it what informed your action at the funeral
service?
First of all, I am not a church goer. I am a
Buddhist, though I was born into the Catholic
doctrine. And part of my reason for not going to
church is the fact that I have been to a lot of
churches. For the first 20 years of my life, I was
a mass servant. I was an ‘altar boy’ because
my father was a disciplinarian. If you don’t go
to morning mass, you are bound to be in
trouble.
I did all that for 20 years, and that’s the kind of
background I was coming from. But things
have changed regarding the mode of worship in
most churches. They spend more time than
necessary. Why should we be praying for two
to three hours non-stop? I have other things to
do. At the funeral service, I was told that Mr.
President’s representatives and other
dignitaries have arrived my home town.
Unfortuantely, one of my legs was paining me,
and that was why, if you were in church that
day, I was sitting down throughout. People
didn’t understand why I was sitting down. I
couldn’t stand up for too long. Now, we have
spent about two to three hours in the church.
We couldn’t afford to give all the politicians that
attended the funeral rites the opportunity to
pay tribute to my late father. I felt the only
person who should deliver a speech was Mr.
President’s representative.
At that point, I was so stressed and tired. All I
wanted was to commit my father’s remains into
the mother earth. So, I insisted, as the eldest
son of Justice Oputa, I decide how things were
going to be done. At that point, I said please,
no more talk, it’s too much, let one person
speak so we can go and finish the business.
That was what happened but you know people
will misinterpret it. That is their business, not
mine.

The old always see things differently

Abagworo: Does it mean we've lost all those pictures?

Yes. And it also means we've lost many pages of ur nonsense e-fight with ur likes. Let this be like a new year. Make new resolutions

Greetings!
What will it take to get this thread to the front page? I believe a lotta zikites on this site dont about this thread. Its due for fp na... Abi no be so?

charles477: Ok, thanks, I want to say that the test was been done in a federal hospital. I av the mindset that they would use the most specific tools in testing, I didn't wanna do it at any of the road side labs. Do u think differently about the accuracy of a govt hospital test.

From what i've observed, govt hospitals and big private hospitals who offer HIV care are about the best places to get accurately tested. But like i said before, to clear any doubt the accuracy of the test, request for an Antigen test.

Idoma Likita: I'm sorry to Digress! But I see this as an Appropriate forum to raise this issue!

A friend of mine was rejected by a Government Hospital when He applied for Housemanship some Years back on account of HIV Seropositivity! I don't know how he eventually did HJ but I remember us telling him back then to sue, considering the fact that he probably must have contracted it in Medical School during A&E, Obs&Gynae, Paediatrics, and Surgery Postings where Contact with Patient Blood was inevitable!

My Questions are:
1.Since HouseJob is a Compulsory Part of Medical Training without which your Provisional License cannot be Upgraded! And being denied that Opportunity is tantamount to wasted 6-8yrs in school, Does that provide a ground for legal action?

2. The Argument would be that He could contaminate his Patients inadvertently, But there are Branches of Medicine where Doctors have MINIMAL CLOSE-CONTACT with Patients (eg Public Health, Psychiatry etc) where this fellow could be deployed to! However, training in such fields CANNOT proceed without Housemanship which involves the Rotation of the Intern around 4 Department and he MUST make Close contact with Patients!
In this case, does the Govt Hospital have any legal justification for the Outright rejection of this fellow?

Once again, I'm sorry for derailing the Post!

Seriously issues like this needs to be looked into by the appropriate bodies. I think its hypocritical when the govt carry out campaigns urging everyone to go and test for these viruses, making it sound like a simple issue, when they dont have friendly policies as regards employment of people living with these viruses.
Its bearable when private establishments discriminate against people living with these viruses, but in the case of the govt, its very bad in my opinion.
.
THE BEST WAY TO FIGHT THE SPREAD OF VIRAL INFECTIONS LIKE HEPATITIS AND HIV IS TO STOP STIGMATIZATION.

Thank you Op for this beautiful exposition.
I think its time our legislators both in the states and federal level look into this issue of stigmatization due to ones health status. Weather HIV or Hepatitis, employers should'nt refuse one employment cos of that.
If a HIV +ve person for example is refused employment becase of his status, dont you think that frustration and anoyance can lead such person into spreading the virus to others?

FreeGlobe: The Chime thread was the straw that broke the Carmel's back. in case you missed it here you go: https://www.nairaland.com/1580749/chime-declares-support-jonathan

But seriously bro, frustration is real bad. Tribalism can push some fellas to the brink.

Mightymanna: Hahahahahahaha igbo dream and fantasy never end kai wonder dey igboland imagine they just open a thread and start pouring poo inside.anyway continue wetting your pant in your daily dream about igbo pressident or vice pressident. but i promised you it never happen you will suprise when GEJ hand over power to northern nigeria i think you guys will cry blood.the north is even trying to stop GEJ in 2015 talkless of 2019 how do you think you can win election without northern votes?

I'm sorry to say this, but you are a FOOL. Your kins are here celebrating their fustrations and you are falling for it.

lacasa: I swear, being on Nairaland for some time has confirmed one thing to a whole lot of people like myself.

And that Is,


That: Most SE/SS Nigerians are really un-exposed and shallow-minded folks. It is not wrong to imply that many of their displayed insecurities and inadequacies are borne out of sheer mutual suspicion and innate evil tendencies from inception. Made worse broadly, due to their uncompromising undiplomatic make-up as witnessed by their negative perception from/of other ethnicities in the country.


To be frank!

If your judgement is based on the trash being typed by the op and ilugunboy on this thread then you are either foolish or ignorant.

If the national conference will lead to the division of nigeria into federating units still under one nigeria, then its all good.

charles477: I have a question, I had unprotected sex sometime in september, and the relationship went sour around october, av been having bitter taste in mouth, though its gone now, but I had to treat malaria thrice(3), highest av treated malaria is twice, after the first two drugs, d doctor at UPTH, ordered anoda Malaria test which I did and it came positive for malaria, so the third drug he prescribed I think cleared it, but out of curiousity by December 27th I ran an HIV test, got the result to be Negative four days later. My major question is does HIV come with bitter taste in mouth too, just as I read that the symptoms are not specific. And my running a test at end of december can it be considered outside the window.

From your explanation, you had the unprotected sex at september while you tested negative for HIV at december. Thats about 3months right?
From what i know, HIV virus takes about 8weeks to incubate and spread in the human body. By this time, its likely that the virus must have multiplied to a detectable level in the body such that the normal antibody test(which is the usual test done in most labs for someone with unknown status) could detect the virus.
.
So bro, i think you have two options here;
1. Go for another HIV test by february or march. Or
2. Go to a heart to heart center and request for an antigen test for HIV. This test might cost you money but after a few days you will know for sure weather you have the virus or not cos this test is more accurate than the usual HIV antibody test.

chino11: I was with Emeka Offor today at Barnhills Resort- Awka for an introduction of our firm's services to him..

The fact is that I could not take pictures because security was so tight with the combine team Army and Mopol Personnel that seized the floor..

I must confess Emeka Offor is among the 5 richest Nigerians..

I call on my fellow Nlders to Pray for me for the consultancy job am about to strike with one of the Emeka Offor's companies..

Chei! Chino nwannem, idi egwu!

Chai! Tribalism is a disease. Look what it has turned some fellas into.

IAMBREEZY: That guy can't be a billionaire atall i dunno why some bloggers like twisting things.

Then you dont know Emeka offor at all.
I think last 2 years(2012) or so, his foundation donated books worth 2 billion naira to schools across the country.

FreeGlobe: it is not a secret that Ngige's 3 year tenure is far better than Obi's 8 years. Even if you give obi 100 Years, I'm not sure he will have the capacity to outperform Ngige's 3 Years considering his penchant for using state funds for his private business. Anambra state has not recorded any progress under Peter obi

You've really not told us what your case is with obi.

Beautiful i must say.
Akwa ibom must be swimming in money.

Keke Why not motorcycles? Abi federal govt don ban bike for borders?

Go create your own thread. No dull this one abeg

*Anyone that claims that mud houses are non-existent in igboland is a LIAR.
*In comparison to other parts of the country, igboland has the least number of mud houses.
*Areas of igboland where mud houses are likely to be found are: the very rural communities of nsukka, ebonyi, riverine areas of anambra & imo and so on.
.
We should learn to avoid telling lies over stuff we are not sure of. We should'nt paint a false image of igboland simply because we want to get cheap e-glory.
That you've not seen a mud house in your village( the one you visit only during christmas), does not mean it does'nt exist in other areas of igboland.
Most igbo villages are filled with good looking modern houses no doubt. Infact, some of those houses are far more beautiful than those in the cities and every now and then, more beautiful designs are being built.
.
So, in summary, igboland has got the most beautiful villages in nigeria. But to say ALL these villages are without mud houses in them is a WHITE LIE.

How is unizik fm doing?

Many people are getting infected with HIV via non-sexual means. Serious orientation is needed cos it appears we all are focussed on the sex thing and have forgotten the other means of transmission.
