Maybe someone should open a Ludus so we can have a 'kill them all' Roman style, like a lot of people here are championing.

Meanwhile note that at least two of the mugus have some kinda charm around their waste ...worked out really well for them I guess .

Next thing now someone will say this particular charm doesn't work for AK47 ... WE GIVE UPPPP!!! (Copyright amunaekeuto1 of nairaland)

I'd put Ryan Giggs ahead of him in the wing department. Guys like Arjen Robben also featured in the EPL at one point remember?

Beckham is/was a very good player, but definitely not tier 1. I'd put him at tier 2B; great career regardless.

Jarus: I used to say he was overrated. But in hindsight, he wasn't actually overrated. At least nobody ever said he was the best player on planet.

I think he was a great player.

In my books, he was:



England's best footballer in the last 15 years
EPL's best deadball specialist ever
Second to CR7 as best winger the game has seen in the last 15 years


I know he is overhyped, but nobody ever said he was the best football player, the hype comes from the looks and all those off-field activities, which are not my business

Na so ... We are soooo far behind in this our country. Let me give two examples to help illustrate what I'm trying to say.

1. Bill Gates comes to Nigeria and goes to your village where he meets you great grandma who has never left there her entire life. She asks him how he got there and he explains that he came in a great metal bird that flies in the sky. When the old woman laughs and says such is impossible, he takes her on a spin in his Gulf Stream V; seeing is believing and problem solved.

2. Seun goes to America and decides to stop over real quick at New Orleans. While he is there he gets into a chat with the boyz in the hood talking about how he can deflect bullets and turn into a cat at will. When they ask for a demo, Seun will say well "boys true talk no be me do am sha but if you go nairaland u go see enough people wey sabi as the thing dey work".

We tend to believe without reasoning or thinking. If someone is going around making outlandish claims that they can deflect bullets for example, is it not practical that said person be ready to give a demo of his ability?

Anyway these people wen dem tap their eggroll, one pesin talk say nothing remain another pesin talk say na small pikin 'pipi' remain. So which is it?

Rooneyboy:
Nah ! It didn't disappear completely, it shrinked to its minimum.

As small as the breast of a dog, *Not a breastfeedng dog ooo*

What was it Karl Marx said again?

Amen to that! God bless you and your hustle because you are enlightened ...

Most people are too lazy to use their brain to innovate, that's the problem.

Pain: I no some money making rituals too. This is it.
1. Wake up Early
2. Find something worthwhile to do.
3. Stick with it and become an expert
4. Don't cut corners.

When you do not have understanding, you ask questions and inquire so that you get enlightened and illuminated ...

Logically, the burden of proof rests on the person making a positive claim. So if someone says that they
can make money roll from a human head it is not up to me to disprove his claim, he needs to show concrete proof.

The problem I have is that when I ask people for concrete proof of the absurdities they claim ( for example, someone told me they saw a woman turn into a bat in living daylight), they can offer no proof. Na only dem say, he say, she say..

Of course things like herbs and such exist and will work; is modern medicine not just evolution of traditional alchemy? But for someone to believe that a human head can vomit money endlessly is quite sad, and is

When you work hard, use your brain to think and innovate, and reap the fruits of your labor
you will start to understand what it takes to be successful. Like someone already mentioned,
most people that believe in a lot of these outlandish ideas are usually not very smart people.

If you ask pesin wey build airplane how e carry build am, dem go show you step by step. If you
ask jazzman how e take turn into lion ...

COOLDUN: I have been reading and waiting to hear from those people that oppose the existence of money ritual, but have not yet seen any proof from them only bashing words without any logical backing, if anyone believes that there is Devil, then let that fellow know that with Devil every evil related activities like money ritual is real. To me I have not tried it before, and will never dare to try it. Also I am not ruling out its existence. There are forces of darkness and evil men/women who work with them. These people are known as the workers of iniquities. Take it or leave it. If it does not exist then let us know through your logical points, and not bashing from your beer parlor ideologies.

Wetin do you na? Which one you dey call Baba name? Why not volunteer yourself?

Baba wey don steal and chop our oil money finish and is enjoying life,
you are still here groveling and suffering and talking babalawo things.

Ok bring Baba come, if e gree I no mind shoot am sef! lol

ha ha, u funny gan oh!
Go and challenge O B J ..

Here is a challenge I posted about 6 months ago on Nairaland. I am very open minded and when something does not make sense to me, I ask questions to try and understand.

We live in a world that works 99% on logic, so I try to model most things I do along those lines. That being said, here goes. Feel free to replace bullet proof jazz with any jazz of your choice :-) :

The same way wey Seun dey post programming challenge, my own today na Jazz challenge .

Our 'company' is looking to test this African "bullet proof" jazz. We visit Nigeria
about three times a year. The rules are simple: you wear your bullet proof jazz and
we get to pepper you with shots from handguns and rifles of our choice; no explosives.

After 5 minutes we will cease all fire and if you are still alive you get a grand
sum of N25 million and also a life-time contract working with our 'company' to fully
develop "jazz bullet proof". You will be payed N50 million per year.

You must sign our release form; one of the clauses is if you die from this experiment,
we the 'company' bear zero liability.

Oya I dey wait, and make una no tell me say na your friend papa grandfather sabi do am or
u no fit reveal the secret. Carry come

maryjames9: There's lot of misconception here.I sell laptops,so i have an authority here.More than 90% laptops and even electronics are assembled in china by companies like hp,dell and other make.They have offices in china due to their cheap labour and favourable business environment than U.S which have heavy tax. There's no such laptop as fake hp or original hp. For the poster dat said he saw the same spec of laptop for 98 and 120k respectively. It's possible the clock spead is different and even if it's the same the shop you buy it matters a lot. There are shops that have already made name and dont gun for small profit no more,while others who desperately want customers.Besides,fluctuation in market dynamics affects pricing. You can get a genuine laptop delivered to you at the comfort of your room by Delmak Technology in lagos, ibadan, ilorin by caln 08062144308. Thanks

Bros Biko don't mislead people trying to market your company. There is a difference, and it is all down to quality control set by different governments. Basically there are standards and benchmarks that you must meet before you can sell your product in a specific market.

I remember how you had to write with a pencil until you got to Grade 3 and graduated to penmanship.

Yes my school was posh like that; we no dey talk plimaly 1, plimaly 2 ...

Ejiné: I remember when I used to recieve hot punishments for tearing out the leaves of my exercise books and using them to draw "action feems".

De actor and de 'bose'



Mrs. Njemanze was such a mean biyotch.

Ejine, which primary school did you go to?

spyder880: car sales point at Ziks avenue, you can see parts of Lobito's house, anyone here heard of Lobito in the 80's?

Lo lo lo lo lobitoooo ... They had their shop right by Kenyatta market, it was where everyone went for Xmas shopping. The rumor ws that he pushed, got caught and was poisoned or something along those lines.

Spyder you have done a great job here. Biko aru ole ka idi? Just curious; next time I am in Enugu I would love to meet you in person. I have been following some of your other threads and you my brother are an inspiration.

All this church wahala kini ? Is it not one church of God? Yet we have one million denominations fighting each other, who's right who's wrong. Ultimately, be a good person and do good things; that to me is ultimate whether u be Christian or Muslim or Buddhist

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds ... Nawa for us for dis naija

swiftycool: This happened some years ago in the south south of Naija, when robberies were very rampant and robbers so daring. The Dad of a friend of mine who was a senior military officer in charge of gunnery and ammunition which were often supplied to the base under his supervision. This man sometimes secretly stored ammo in their house which was outside the base while their quaters was being renovated and no one knew of it till one day.

Armed robbers had warned the area that they were comin to rob and everyone was scared. My friend's dad just stayed up drinking beer and watching TV all night till they arrived and were sighted by him from the balcony. They had started robbing the neighbours and were about 8 in number, 4 stood guard outside and 4 went in.

The officer took his gun and aimed at each robber standing guard, shooting point blank at each of them in quick succession being an excellent marks man, but to his surprise the bullet just bounced off while the guys turned in his direction and laughed, they had on some bullet resisting jazz on them! They called the rest of their gang to come out and head for where the shots were fired from.

The group assembled, eight in number and walked towards the compound which had no gate shouting that they were going to kill my friends father and all his family. By now everyone in the house was scared shitless, crying, begging God and blaming the dad.

To their suprise being the soldier he was, he wasn't shaken, he just ran into his room and came out with something in each of his hands, walked to the balcony, bent down and threw what was in his right hand at the robbers, followed swiftly by his left.

All of a sudden two successive deafening explosions were heard and the bodies of the assembled robbers flung in all directions; the man had used greenades! The only two robbers that survived were maimed 4 life, one lost both legs and the other was burnt badly and lost sight and hearing.

My friend's dad was courtmarshalled by his force in the morning. And jailled for a month but reinstated after 7months afte accquited by military court. Robberies in that area ceased for a very long time after that. Till today he's called BaBa Rambo! Lol

I was born and raised in a Christian home.  However, as I've grown older and wiser I have been moving away from organized religion more and more.   

It is startling the extent to which people have refused to think with their God given brain.  Does it make any sense to you that God is speaking to you through his servant, yet you have not a clue what the person is saying? Oy Vey!  People open your minds, ask questions, and try to reason through things.  Don't be a sheep the follower, be a shepherd the leader.

The problem with religion in general is that is based on faith not fact or any discernible logic; hence every argument for it will be subjective.  Why then does the Christian doctrine condemn followers of another religion (if you are not a born again christian you will burn in the hell of fire)? Or say Muslims condemn Christians etc

Have you ever asked yourself why we are Christians, one God world without end yet we have a billion different denominations in the same Christianity?  Some denominations even refuse to get married to one from another denomination.


Anyway as for me today, I can never condemn or uplift any person based on their faith; Be you Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Traditionalist, Scientologist or whatever tickles your fancy.
Be a good person, live your life the right way, love your neighbor, and I believe great things await you in the afterlife ( or your next incarnation in life as a rabbit :-) ). 

Knowledge is Power; Carpe Diem!

Yup, for those that don't know PayPal is indeed owned by eBay and they have created one of the biggest current monopolies.  And no, eBay and PayPal are not your friends; Just wait till they 'limit' then shut down your account for no apparent reason other than your account shows 'excessive risk'.

They are trying to gear their services towards the big retailers only like Buy.com and the rest of them.  How the hell can you expect a small business like mine to have a reversal rating below 2% (mind you this includes returns, refunds,  and charge backs whether is is your fault or not) ?  People buy things everyday on a whim and decide they don't want it anymore tomorrow.  For the mathematically challenged, this means that if you sell 100 items and more than 2 have problems of any kind then pray that your account does not get reviewed ,

Not too shabby I'd say

dem dey do Bill at Channel Seizure?

Unless we have some concrete, official numbers this argument will remain subjective.

Let me add though, that it seems like some people have not seen Nigerians living in true poverty. One person mentioned people sleeping in houses made of zinc and wood and categorized them among the poor. I guess you haven't been to the villages where people still live in mud huts and the kids all run around naked; a lot of these places are not accessible by motor vehicle. You have to disembark at some point and walk the rest of the way. No, this is not a fairy tale.

Also there are places where you can eat for N40 (without :-), for those who know what that means ) per meal. $2/day equates to about N320 or N10,000 a month and that is really not far away from where the majority of Nigerians are.

Una don finish pesin homework for am :-) , This is a common lower level programming language assignment; Intro to C abi na wetin dem dey call am. I did this particular one for a few people for 50 bucks each. Towers of Hanoi is another popular one too for recursion.

@ dell_net - C sure is easier but C++ has a lot more functionality; Objects, Templates, STL, BGL etc.

Hackney +1 , but I prefer black mixed with pink
