Nothing, absolutely nothing. I never liked school the first day I stepped foot into it and the last day I stepped out of it. I was a sadist, had bad days at school EVERYDAY. I sometimes wished my teachers, headmaster, principals, VPs, current governor or president could drop dead so there could be holidays... my wishes never did came through. Modified I thought I was commenting on the thread below this one... I guess I'm still a sadist. |

Topics like these are always viewed by less Nairalanders and with few contributions/comments. Yet same myopic and mentally poor fellows will keep saying trash about their leaders and their country on other topics of no relevance to their growths. Educative posts on socialmedia attract less to majority of Nigerian youths. Hence our society is getting bad day in day out. To add a few.... outstanding leaders are good listeners and they study wide too..... 1 Like |

nwamabo247: I saw this video in another thread and felt for the person in the video. But because of the society we live in and how some lazyyoots have turned things into, i had a feeling that you are most likely not the person in the video. If you're, try convince people like us then....... A quick one. Just upload a current picture of yourself now |
