YARADUA'S ADMINISTRATIVE FAUX PAS AND THE THREATS HE REPRESENTS TO DEMOCRACY

It's so sad to know that as big as Nigeria is, are almost always fortunated with good leadership at all levels. And even the few times in the past wen we were lucky to have a few that had the people's interest at heart, the system did all it could to defeat them and force them out. They obviously weren't perfect men, but when you consider the plights of the Ribadus, the El-Rufais, the Buharis, etc, you'd know wot am tokin about....

It's About Time To Give Back To Our Generation-This Seasons Obligation!

I think more important than our fancy clothes,jewellry,footwear,colognes...our ticket to the SB galleria n Nu Metro cinemas...the good,rich gourmet that comes every year end season..we should not for a second 4get to think of those quite unhappy young faces specially of our generations who toil day n night in sweat n in tears who for crcumstances mainly out of their control... by reason of birth,learning,culture,have not been as privleged as we areand who unfortunalety and bitterly too might never ever in their miserable lives n hearts never get to know the true meaning of what itis like to be ahppy n free....

This Thing Called Men

It has two feets,two arms,but never more than one idea on its head or a button on its shirt.

A man is what a woman marries.

To turn a man into a husband is one of the most delicate plastic operation known to civilization.It requires Hope,Faith and Charity.

If you flatter a man,you bore him to death,

If you dont,he wonders what stuff women are made of.

If you are the type that wears gay colors like bright orange,red,yellow....

a succesful man can practise polygamy why not a successful woman

Why would only women have to suffer....... a man who she is succsessful and not even half as goodlooking as a woman could marry more than one wife.these poor womenstart competing for his attention..... i was wondering lately.. i am good looking and beautiful ..very competent woman....i could get married to three men at the same and and allow then compete for my attention as well... will society frown at this???hell no... society has no right... continue

DO NIGERIANS KNOW MUCH ABOUT THE REST OF AFRICA?

I have had a chance to visit Nigeria and have a few friends there. What I have noticed is that they seem to have very little knowledge of East Africa.

When I told one of my friends that Mt, Kenya has snow at the top, he was adamant that there is no snow in Africa! And he ie a graduate of The University of Abuja. Yet another, who is currently taking Law in Lagos University does not know the time difference between Kenya and Nigeria! Another lady thought Kenya is a jungle. That Africa does not have a jungle did not occur to her.

Why this ignorance? Even a Primary school kid in Kenya can tell you about Nigeria.
