Foreign Affairs / Re: President Trump Gets Censored On Twitter For His Tweet Threatening Americans by wowo2: 12:29pm On May 29, 2020
“A riot is the language of the unheard.”- MLK

TripleOh7:
Actually, Trump's right.

The looting and violence dishonours the memory of the deceased.

And the looters are making things worse for the black man.

They call you a monkey, a thief and a brigand and you go right ahead and prove them right.

So so wrong.

#edited

For those inclined to quote me without comprehension, I am against shooting of any protesters or looters. And the killer cops should face justice.

The part of Trump's speech that I supported has been quoted by me here.

So read to understand.

To be fair, if she has been in isolation for almost 40 days it needs further investigation.

The tests can give false positives. If we know how many times she has been tested one can deliberate on if that is the case here.

If she says she is a british citizen, she should get in touch with their embassy to see if they can organise independent tests for her.

Crime / Re: Police Arrest Illegal Chinese Miners In Zamfara (Photos) by wowo2: 3:29pm On Apr 27, 2020
There is no control over some state resources/minerals so the governors have people tap it for them. After paying the people illegally helping them mine them, the money goes into the Governors pockets. They may share some with cronies. It is what is happening.

mabeni:
Is it natural forgetting ones dream(s) before day breaks? I am in my early 30s.

I can't sleep without dreaming either good or bad but it baffles me why I can't or won't be able to remember anything from the dream when I wake up.

You are either too tired when you go to sleep or you are drinking too much before bed. Thank me later.

I do not have anything to say again. Everybody has an opinion about everything but give them the reins of responsibility and all they display is show of authority - their lack of ideas become apparent. This is the case of every government that has been in office in Nigeria. And it is most likely the case if YOU get into office..
Politics / Re: Ogun Government Arrests Woman For Blasting Governor Over Stone-Filled Beans -SR by wowo2: 9:13am On Apr 16, 2020
Exponental:

That's an attack. For crying out loud, some of these foods were donated or bought in large quantities. Mass production within a short time will have flaws. Unfortunately, people in some parts of the state capital have not collected.

The stones and sticks in beans are what we can easily see with naked eyes. I will not be surprised if there are unseen harmful substances in the mix. Afterall, we are fine to easily dismiss quality and common professionalism in everything.

It is why nothing work.s in Nigeria.

The politicians and their goons are the ones i see that feel they are entitled.
If we want to practise democracy as its original proponents do, then take care of your citizens. Otherwise, what exactly is the point of being in positions of responsibility.

Outside of paying salaries, there is absolutely no need of the government and its bodies as they can only take care of the following:
President and his family
VP and his family
All their advisers and families
Ministers and their families
Governors, deputies, commissioners, their advisers and families
Legislature members and their families
All political office holders and their families

Pls add others that matter that I have omitted.

Good grief, this Ogbeni Aregbesola should be shipped off to China and must never return. His ideas are so Mao-ist. They are never suitable for a country of individuals aspiring for help to become self sustaining or gainfully employed.

Government has a role to play. They regulate charities. They recognise the role of charities in the society is helpful to the government and they aslo contribute about a quarter of the value of funds a charity has to it.

budaatum:

Governments do not provide food banks. It is individual citizens who donate to them so they have food to bank usually as a consequence of government policy that impoverishes people.

If we want food banks in Nigeria too, we just have to donate to them. It comes under love your neighbours as you love yourselves.

Travel / Re: Post Brexit UK Visa/Job Policy: No Visas For Low-Skilled Workers by wowo2: 11:19pm On Feb 19, 2020
From the few comments I have read, it appears some people may be misinterpreting this new policy. Especially the employer part of the conditions which implies that you must already have a job offer with a minimum salary before you can be granted entry.

Tier 2 Work Visa which is similar to the policy already exists. This new one appears to target non skilled people coming to work in the UK from EU countries that pre brexit, can migrate to the UK unhindered.

Some years ago, the UK had work permits that did not require you to have a job offer before applying for entry visa. They cancelled it due to many reasons - amongst which is the fact that even though it was meant for highly skilled immigrants, they realized many on the visa were working non skilled jobs.

It is when they are directly affected by the bigoted policies and behavior of president Trump that they scream blue murder. Otherwise they will be licking Trump’s feet and making excuses for him...he sleeps with their wife and they will be like - “oh well, it is ok because he is my president”...God sent!

Americans have no principles and have proven that democracy not working in Africa is not really to do with Africans. Democracy given the conditions for it to fail will fail or produce a demagogue regardless of the country...enough rant for this morning smiley

Ttipsy:
..... Give way to car by the left? Technically it still doesn't solve the problem, Traffic flow should be timed and regulated using traffic lights...

Roundabout do waste time,, I think it help to beauty not to solve traffic issues

I actually agree with slimfit1...cars approaching the roundabout should give way to oncoming cars on their left..the concept works...t least in other countries.

Although saying that, the day I entered the roundabout and was dragging it with car coming from my right, when I am to his left and he should av stopped, the guy was threatening to beat me up..

Did some digging a few years back and could see some Nigerians families affected by the World trade centre 9/11 from the names. This was truly an event that affected the whole world.

List is not conclusive and there may be others of Nigerian heritage affected - but it would be great we remeber about how connected the world is - and have their families in our thoughts and prayers.

I had links to the articles on cnn and Fox News that I got the names from but unfortunately the links are no longer active.

theoldpretender:


At the end of the day, it does not matter.

University is not cheap to run. Especially in Nigeria where universities have to now pay for power bills themselves, provide power and water, build new facilities, renovated existent ones, etc.

Corruption exists in Nigeria because Nigerians tolerate it. The day they decide not to, things might get better

Let govt find the money. In a country that doles out over 160,000,000 naira to each Senator every year (outside of actual salary!), education should be funded by the govt. What exactly does Nigeria offer the common man. Merely living in Nigeria is enough sacrifice. The evil of corruption is so horrific and will end the country...that “education bank” bank had better not have people like Saraki etc near it...by the first quarter of 2017, unpaid student loan total was in the region of 100 billion pounds in the UK..i see this as fertile corruption ground for people in governance...slush fund for their shenanigans.

Uber/Taxify should start encouraging dashcam in drivers cars, even though thats another privacy issue, but using the service will automatically have people sign waiver and the can should only be turned on when things start to escalate honestly they both have legit story but someone is definitely lying and that truth can be impossible to find out. If there was a dash cam the moment issue was escalating and driver was asking about destination he should be able to flip a button to record event of the moment thats covered under ToS for uber/taxify users they don't have to deal with this. Dashcam is as cheap as $16 USD

You have a point. If I recall correctly, it was a dash cam audio and video record of a conversation between a Uber taxi driver and the passenger that happened to be the Uber CEO was part of what made the CEO loose his job...
