This's just cruelty. Some people should not be having babies. I understand not being able to take care of her. Actually, i don't. Some people shouldn't be bringing children into the world if they know they can't take care of them. I don't care what kind of unforeseen problems come your way after the child is born. You gave birth to her, you take care of her. And if you can't, fine. But there're other ways to go about giving her up rather than treating her like garbage and dumping her in a sack WITH REFUSE...IN A CANAL. Haba. She was trying to kill that child. What more can i even say? Some people have no heart.

I don't even know what to say. I'm just mad reading this. This's just ridiculous. There's no excuse for this sorta thing. The mother made a mistake by listening to her neighbour and I'm sure she'll live with that guilty for the rest of her life. The nurse should be charged with either second degree murder or manslaughter, but they need to thoroughly investigate to find out whether the intent was there to figure out which charge she should get. But she should be charged. And her license should be revoked. The doctor also has to pay, like how the heck can you reject a sick patient? His license should also be revoked. Take it away Angry!! As a doctor, you’ve a duty to protect health and people have the right to have their health protected by you (but this Nigeria we’re talking about here…these type of standards don’t exist, sadly). If you can’t do your job or you're afraid to attend to a patient for whatever the reason, then hang up your coat and go home!! Angry

What a pretty little girl. RIP.

So sad Sad. I'm also wondering what the stealing cows' story has to do with the suicide story. If you're going to focus on one story, focus on one story. Why'd whoever wrote the article feel the need to join the two stories together, especially stories that took place on different dates and had nothing to do with one another?? And especially one that's so irrelevant compared to the first?? I'm at a loss here Huh?. Anyway, no one knows what really happened: If she did do it, or if someone killed her, and the thought of the latter's just hard to picture. Both are hard to picture. Hope the Police do their job and find out what really went down. May she rest in peace.


Note: That's not the girl's picture. That's just a picture of someone else pulled off from the internet 'cuz I've seen it before.

Prince Boateng's cute. Had no idea he's 23. And I didn't know he's married and has a child. Good for him. I'm not sure why Winnie Mandela's trying to hook up her grand-daughter, especially with a married man. Did she not do her research or it didn't matter that the man has a wife at home already?
510  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Re: Celebrating female virgins in Nigeria.... miss virginity pageant. on: 13-02-2010 07:51 PM
This's absurd. We've more important things to do in the country than finding out which girls are virgins and which aren't, haba.

I'm sure there're lots of virgins in naija (yes, there are) and I agree with waiting till marriage (but to each his own), but you don't need to have no competition and look at people's hymens to prove your point. If you're a virgin, keep it to yourself. If you're not, kudos as well, that's your business -no one else's. They need to stop this competition. Aside from the fact that this competition just useless (yes, it is), it's going to do more harm than good in the long run. I can't even think of what good can come about it right now. They're other ways to teach girls about abstinence (not to mention -protecting yourself-) than this.

So I'm guessing they just choose a bunch of random girls or how did they even choose them and determine who enters the competition? And how old are these girls? What if more than one girl turns out to be a virgin, what then? They all win...?

Whoever came up with this idea needs a big slap. A really big one.

Yea, I know, Zola. Never seen anything like it. This was just last year too. I almost wish I never saw that video because now I can't get those images out of my mind. How can people be so cruel like that? Those men are pure barbarians. "Barbarians" is even an understatement. They need to be locked up, kept in a cubical room with no light and immensely tortured for the rest of their lives -to make sure they suffer before they die. That would not even make up for what they did to those people.

517  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Re: ~Have You Ever Denied Your Country (Nigeria)? . . .~ on: 7-02-2010 03:36 AM
No. But our image is so tainted right now because of the acts of a few number of people that those in the western world'll always generalize and think the rest of the country's a certain way -when it isn't. I've watched way too many comedians poking fun of how we do yahoo yahoo in Nigeria. After Oprah aired that show last year and NBC aired theirs (they actually went to Nigeria) about fraud, schemes and other things in Nigeria and did some crackdowns in the U.S on some Nigerian men frauding people, things haven't been the same. And I'm always getting emails about Mr. So and So, the President of Blah Blah Blah in Nigeria who wants me to forward money to him for whatever the reason. I know these are made-up emails...there is no President of BYB Bank or some ish like that, and it doesn't mean they always come from Nigerians (but they sometimes do), anyone could do that and make it seem like it's coming from a Nigerian. And these emails are being sent to a lot of random people, not just me, of course, which makes things even worse -because people are always going to think it's always Nigerians doing this when this may not always be the case. It all started with us or maybe I should say "a few people" in Nigerian, and because of that others are taking advantage of the situation. And we're still doing this in Nigeria, which doesn't help in any way either. There're people who don't make generalizations nor judge, and I have met many, so not everyone sees us in a off-putting light. No one has ever called me any names of anything like that, but I often no longer feel free to tell people I'm Nigerian just because of the assumptions and negativity a lot of people associate with it. And I'm not even talking about the Mutallab bombing. That was the act of one single person (and problems existed before that unfortunate incident), and I think a lot of people do understand this and we all know we ain't no terrorists in Nigeria, so I'm not even worried 'bout that. But it's whatever. I still say where I'm from when asked. I'm Nigerian, hate it or love it. We have problems, yes, but the good far outweigh the bad (even though it's sometimes hard to see) and we have made a lot of progress in many ways, and these are what a lot of people in other parts of the world do not see. It's up to us to make things right and renew our image. But I guess I should say that because we should be concerned with "renewing our image," but renewing Nigeria first of all. I'm not so sure it it can be done, but nothing's impossible.

It doesn't matter where it's happening: north, east, west, etc; it's still in Nigeria and people (the Police) need to be held accountable for taking people's lives mercilessly like that. The gov't's not even investigating anything, which's ridiculous. I think these families deserve answers and closure. As for the religious disputes, I thought we've grown from that by now...I guess not. God bless Naija. So many changes need to be made.

Awesome, awesome, awesome. Finally some good news, haba. Popo, I agree with you. This's the kind of things we should be seeing on the news about Nigeria, not 419 and yahoo boys, or how corrupt the government is -which's pretty much what I usually hear about here. We need to show them what Nigeria's made off.
