Was there last year and the previous... It was fun. I won't make a thread for it biko. HV stepped on toes on nairaland and the last thing I want is my picture flying. Last year own was great I took part in the bikers rally and I must commend Ben Ayade for calabar roads. He even paid lots of artiste for free shows in the metropolis. Mr P, phyno and co the last day was the best. The march in the stadium that made some ladiesarch totally unclad from breast up. It was a sight to behold

midnighter:


Hmm! Making a thread about your experience at a festival is stepping on toes Okay o

All of that sounds like cool thread material but what do I know lol

greatbrian:


You don't get it. HV made some controversial comments here. There was a time a military man was said to misbehave and I supported him in the spirit of camaraderie. I never knew the gravity of things till early last month when news made FP of ariforce soldiers killing A man in sokoto coz dey called his gf an harlot. I tried condemning the attacks until I saw over 30 mentions all telling me y am I condemning what am part of. One even said he won't be shocked if am the airforce officer. As if that was not enough early this week I saw a mention on a topic of a planned protest to free sowore and Someone just commented Buhari will order greatbrian and his boys to dance python etc. Men i felt weak like what kinda image HV I build over time. And the funny thing is I look back at some comment I made and still can't fathom any hiccup.

midnighter:


Lol...are you serious? Okay, I understand you. But you have to remember that they like bullying people in this place.

You can be careful of your comments but still dont allow people to cow you unnecessarily

greatbrian:


I can't even spell bully. I just see myself like the biblical moses. Imagine I post my pix today... Hmmm. the trolling go deep pass Mr micholo and that slaveAzubike

The funny thing is deep down even my course mates calls me civilian coz I show emotions of to pple and real life most pple even say am too cool and harmless to join the kind of life I joined.

but I just feel I shouldn't HV been proud of who I am on Nairaland coz a stereotype is attached to my profession

midnighter:



But Im sure you must understand that people dont have a good impression of soldiers, police and customs officers on here, its normal. I dont think you need to take their comments personally

greatbrian:



This part pains me a lot. Every minute a civilian sleeps fine, a soldier z taking a bullet for that sleep in borno. Meanwhile dz by the way. I saw your post on that healthserve and pistota thread. And abt just posting pix of the carnival, not sure I can do well as a photo journalist but I will try. You can tag along though. And about the bullying part, I feel am the victim here

midnighter:



What stops you from answering all 30 of those crazy mentions and telling them to shut the fùck up?

midnighter:


It may pain you but you have to understand that many people have had horrible experiences with military and paramilitary forces.

I HV actually had my own share of the national cake in the hands of police officers around 2011. I was arrested because I was driving an Honda EOD my mums car. I was made to park in front of a bank and I was snapped there. I was even told I was been trailed all the way from Lagos. Men it was dehumanising. I was taking to the station and my phone was ceased so I can't even put a call to my mum, bro or any relation. I was told to write statement that I was caught in front of a bank etc. Men it was a nightmare. I was behind the counter. In my most Gentle form. A machete was in the boot which I actaulky took to my mums site to do some weeding on my flower bed and it was used as an item against me, 15k was seen in d car as well as it was called exhibit. My offence was a teenager was driving an EOD and then EOD could only be used by a few well to do pple. My dash away was one of the police made me promise that if he gvs me his phone to call my mun I will gv him 5k when m realised. So I called my mum and she put call to pple that matter. I didn't spend another minute there before the dpo himself told them to release me. But it was my turn to shine so I just started acting emotional crying etc.

Cut the long story short, my uncle who used to be a military governor was involved and called some big political officers . and the commissioner of police in that province got a wind of the altercation... Bla bla bla . I never coz of that hate the police in fact I realised from that little romantic regimental dinner that they are all humans giving rifle and most folks who call them bad names will do worst if giving a rifle.

Wow. Well, I guess you know how it feels then.

Damnnnnn niggarrr

You and your family are real niggarrrz

My mum drinks and my dad drinks also
All my sisters drink beer anyday anytime twice on Sunday.



That is why in my family we hardly quarrel

Because a family where every body drinks beer don't quarrel everytime
Am even going to walk down with my four sisters to my normal joint called "play house" in okhoro Benin city and drink some Heineken bottles now
But am leaving one at home to open gate for us later when we are returning home

You started the dumb talk by that "If I were a man I wouldnt come near you". Dont start the insults if you cant take them sweerie

Always giving sharp mouth but cant handle it when somebody gives you back! Shior

Alcohol has no effect on the liver if taken mildly, in fact it reduces your risk of heart disease and stroke so shut it! Stop spreading misinformation everywhere as if youre wiser than anybody here.

Holier than thou chaa chaa but still nothing upstairs mtchew

That doesn't mean you shouldn't tell people the truth once in a while, especially when you know what they're doing isn't good for them. It all depends on how you pass the information.

Reference:


Not true. Recent research suggests that alcohol has detrimental effects on the liver no matter the quantity. Also the theory about heart health and alcohol remains unproven. Those popular conclusions are not universal. Research is dynamic. Keep up to date.

You wrote "recent research suggests", which in itself means that you cannot disregard what I said as untrue. At best you can counter me, but it doesnt make what I said "untrue". Do you have conclusive evidence to the contrary of what I have written or not

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanpub/article/PIIS2468-2667(18)30230-5/fulltext 2018

Concerning the alcohol and heart health, my language was too absolute, but it doesnt make what I have said untrue either.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/health/heart-disease-alcohol-drinking-moderate-risk-uk-study-a8501726.html

Bear in mind that healthcare regulation is written realistically to account for human vices and proclivities. Mild amounts of alcohol will not do your liver any relative harm even though staying away from drink altogether is best. Just like eating salt and oil-laden egusi soup once in a while will not do you anything even though it would be better if you hadnt taken it at all.

Keep up to date yourself![/s]

It may pain you but you have to understand that many people have had horrible experiences with military and paramilitary forces. And you just saw where they killed somebody for a spurious reason so you cant blame people can you?

Do you know what is going on in that thread? He just mentioned me there randomly and I got sucked into the quarrel. Which one of them is telling the truth

We are all victims of the system in this country but the thing is that you wont allow yourself to be victimised. Thats why I said that you dont need allow people on here to finish you if you know you are innocent

Lol I just looked at your profile for the first time since we've been talking...so youre a soldier? No wonder everybody's venting their frustrations on you Lol

But Im sure you must understand that people dont have a good impression of soldiers, police and customs officers on here, its normal. I dont think you need to take their comments personally

Anyway I didnt mean that you should upload pictures of yourself, I meant that you should show pictures of the carnival[/s]
