Why do you take it so hot, with the posts of some of our friends on nairaland you suppose to know what i am saying.

We should all talk on how to improve our education not to shrik our knowledge, and besides the english man says practice make perfect, if you don't practice the english you've been taught in the school, how will you be perfect in all the speach you make.

Please try and be a literate of your citizen and make your country proud of you, not an illiterate.

Hi, ladies and gents of Nairalanders,

I hereby bring a decision for the entire nairalanders to please stop speaking Pidgin english whenever you are on Nairaland Forum.



I think the resistance of Pidgin english in nairaland will improve our knowlede on english language, and its another opportunities for those who do not speak fluent and correct english to learn from this forum of ours.

Please i will like everyone in nairaland to cooperate and lets join head together to improve our knowlede.

Thanks to all nairalanders. 

So you enter Secondary School Finish and you still no sabi speak or write correct English, and na Nairaland u wan take learn am so?

Hmm,  your papa fit go collect the school fees wey hin pay ontop yua head!

And when did you become her appointed spokesperson? Do the organisers of this pageant not have someone appointed in that position already?

I have said it b4 and I will say it again, reading is a fundamental life skill that anyone who claims to have passed through minimum JS1 should have.

@ suze, i heard what u said thatz why i chose to become a member of this web page. well like u all know me, i can't wait to see my dignity being ruined in the name of chatting or fun. i m a law student and i know what it takes to becoming a model. i once won miss Anambra b/4 puttin on this MBGN crown. yes people will say anything to get things back on but i tell u unexamined life is not worth living b/c its filled with a lot of wonders, characterized by curiousity, i think most lives need an explanantions.
like i said b/4, i m a model, i have won the crown, no changes till next yr contest so what ever u say may not be taken as being jinked and can never be taken into consideration. i did not say i m the prettiest but they don't classify who becomes the mizz with beauty alone but other factors which the judges know they wish to put into consideration. of course i didnt make myself mizz Nigeria, judges did.
good day to u all 4 now i got things to do

Is this post not written in the 1st person?

Does it Say "I am mizz Nigeria's PA, writing on her behalf"?


And why oh why would I want to enter a Beauty pageant in Nigeria.
God forbid bad thing. I reject that suggestion in Jesus name!

*smh*

In a world with high variability of risk, there is need for growth and development which is a direct function of research (applied and basic).personally, I am passionate about research because it is that which is needed to create the nonexistent and add to existing literature, qualitative growth cannot be achieved without research and the effective application of research basics, techniques and tools, these and much more defines research as systematic and scientific, a problem solver and an answer to disturbing and recurring estimate.

Was ETHICS not part of your training in Uni?

Or did you also use this type of service to get your" degree"?

Rubbish!!

A person pursuing a higher degree should learn how to do all these by themselves.
That is the whole object of the exercise innit?

This type of thing makes me angry.

AMAKAONE:

and what are we supposed to do with this soy bean powder?

Cook fufu?
Add it to smoothies?
Make Akara & Moi Moi?

nmadi:

Hello Amakaone

Talking about soy bean nutrition, it is a complete reservoir of nutrients, especially proteins. It is the phytochemicals in soybean that prevents blood clotting from taking place. It aids in protecting the heart against oxidation. As far as the soy bean nutritional value is concerned, soybean serves as an excellent source of essential fatty acids, calcium, magnesium, lecithin, riboflavin, thiamin, fiber, folate (folic acid), and iron. Read further to explore information about the benefits of soybeans…

Soybean contains isoflavones that minimizes the risk of developing certain cancers. Soybean, being a fabulous source of proteins, aids in lowering the cholesterol level. Genistein, an isoflavone in soybean, protects the body from the clutches of plague disease.

Over 90 percent of soybean Soy-Based Composites Are on the Market meal is used as a high-protein ingredient in livestock feed.

@nmadi

I appreciate that the stuff is nutritious. I was asking how do we prepare it? to make it worthwhile buying from you?

Surely you cannot just sell something and not be able to tell us what we can do with it? You wan poison us abi wetin?


you say we can add it to cooking soup?
Which soups can we add it to?
Is it a thickener like egusi or a flavourant like iru?
What quantities would we use it in the soup?


If adding it to babies foods, in what quantities?
does it need to be cooked first or do we add it as is?

Please explain?

Hosting a memorable Holiday dinner (The holiday, Xmas, Birthdays, Independence Day) doesn’t need to break the bank. Keep economy in mind while still wowing your guests with creative ideas that won’t cripple your holiday budget.

Shop Early

Start shopping a couple weeks before the holiday, picking up canned goods and non-perishables as they go on sale.

Use Coupons

Even if you’re not a regular coupon clipper, use manufacturers’ and grocers’ coupons to save a bundle on your feast.

Later Dinner Time

Feeding a big bunch? Set dinner time later in the afternoon so no additional evening supper will be expected.

No Tablecloth? No Problem.

Don’t buy an expensive new tablecloth just for the day. Freshly laundered coloured sheets or cotton blankets are creative alternative table coverings that add personality and colour. Or, purchase a length of inexpensive white fabric and let your kids design a one-of-a-kind table covering with fabric markers. Guests can sign it, too, for smiles when you reuse it year after year.

No-Cost Table Details

Add touches to the table that don’t cost a dime but that add a definitive wow factor. Ideas: Slice sticks of butter into restaurant-style butter pats (chill on squares of waxed paper until dinner time), tie rolled napkins with coloured ribbons for place-setting punch, add lemon slices to water glasses, or place a colourful leaf under the glass at each place setting.

Enlist Your Drama Queen

Every family has one: a theatrical, musical, dramatic or performer type. Assign that person (or persons) to the task of putting together a short pre-dinner program to bring the holiday to life. Ideas: a skit of the first holiday dinner or sing-along of a favourite holiday hymn.

Embellish the Food

Even a dish of plain green beans becomes a gourmet delight when sprinkled with a few slivered almonds. Add honey and a sprinkling of nutmeg to cooked baby carrots, toasted pecans to candied yams, or dried cranberries to spinach salad.

Candlelight is Always Right

Use large candles for an immediate impression, or small votives at each place setting for more intimate appeal. Keep open flames away from fabrics, napkins, and small children, or consider using battery-powered candles instead.

Nature’s Bowls, Vases and Votive Holders

Cut a hole into small pumpkins, squashes, apples, oranges or pears to hold votive candles. Scatter fresh cranberries or acorns from the back yard along the centre of your table. For a pretty soup tureen, scoop out a large pumpkin, or for two salad bowls, cut a pumpkin/ Watermelon in half and line with plastic wrap or aluminium foil so salads don’t pick up scent. For a natural vase, scoop out a pumpkin/ watermelon and insert a glass to hold fresh  back-yard foliage. Be sure to slice a section off of the bottom of pumpkins or fruit to stabilize it.

lol, I swear that contraption had me wondering if my cooking skills had gone down south.
Talk about an ego deflator

I hope someone has a bread recipe that works in the breadmaker thingy for me otherwise it's off to the Salvation Army thrift shop with the blooming gadget.

Everytime I look at it I think : Shhesh there goes 48 quid!
