I'll give one thing to Ahmed Tinubu. He is a very smart politician. Now let me ask all the swaga boys, what relevance will Tinubu continue to have in our national politics if do not become the "nearly" candidate that eventually chose to become a kingmaker?.

Tinubu is not running. What he is doing is to position himself at the discussion table so he can have a voice in the conversation that is to ensure. He will yet arm-twist one or two ministerial positions to be occupied by his appointees from the next Apc candidate, and that's a good deal.

If Tinubu goes to bed and does nothing of the sort everyone is currently witnessing, it will be the end of Ahmed Bola Tinubu in Nigeria's national politics. His case with the EFCC may yet resurrect itself in the new dispensation as his relevance wanes.

That not many have figured this out until now shows that many who are speaking here are not really educated in the ways of Nigeria politics.

WYou did not call him, so let the one that called him bother about his teachings.

If we go by that reasoning, we'd also forfeit our rights to hold anyone responsible for their misdeeds. Since we did not create armed robbers, what's our business holding them accountable for the miseries they bring into people's lives?. Let's leave them to their creator?. The same goes for the politicians who daily steal us blind?.

As regards being called. We don't know who called who. We were not there when anyone was called, and we certainly do not have evidence of the calling.

excel101:
I only respoded to the aspect you referred to him as a fraud.

I got ya. But he is yet to publicly correct or apologize for that false claim. Can we then also conclude that his other claims and teachings are in the same manner as his covid assertions.

Do you see where the fraud came from?.

SaudanaofSokoto:
We true APC members say NO TO IGBO MAN AS OUR PRESIDENTIAL FLAG BEARER IN 2023!

More like "you true Afonjas".

excel101:
Only say what you know.

Did he claim covid is caused by 5G frequency transmission?.
Yes or no?.

excel101:
You started 2022 by insulting a man of God... Its well.

How does that take away from him being a fraud?

SaudanaofSokoto:
People may want to ask why? Simple,you cant eat your cake and it and an Igbo candidature will loose even between two Igbos. As the 2023 general election draws nearer,the governing political party as I prefer to call them,would be so profoundly foolish handling over its presidential ticket to any aspiring presidential candidate from the South eastern part of the country.
The reasons are not far fetch,they are alighted below:

1. There may not be APC anymore,if this great injustice should be done. Which is what most of the people from the South east wanted.
2. There will be disaffection among party faithful who will feel that they have been hard done by.
3. I can bet this with everything I have,that the election will be a colossal failure for the APC,if an Igbo man is on balot paper.
4. APC,as a political party is not popular in the SS,fairly popular in the S

My dear brother,

First, improve both your comprehension and writing of the English language. Then come back and make your submission again.

Thank you

The oil in the Niger Delta did not start there but settled there. If you understand geology, you will know that oil starts out in one place and moves to another place where it is typically extracted. The oil that is currently in the Niger Delta started out in the Middle Belt and over time flowed down south.

Therefore, we cannot truly say any one person or people own oil, it is similar to air, or sea, it is something that simply cannot be attributed to just one area.

It is due to ignorance that those who live on the soil where it is extracted will be claiming ownership, we have seriously flawed thinking in this country.

Just shut up. Every time you northerners open your filthy mouths to speak, your stupidity, shallowness, and outright fraudulent nature comes to the fore. This is the reason even the religion the majority of you practice suffers a lack of trust worldwide.

Tell me, when will the proceeds of fulani cow sales, preferably to foreign lands and in dollars, find itself in CBN's coffers as national earnings?. When can we say the same for the foods you claim to produce?. You liars know the only reason you're still chanting Niijeriya is because of the resources in the south. And since the oil and gas originated from where you described as the middle belt, why don't you extract it from that location with the attendant environmental degradation?.

The only ignorant people I see in your empty narrative are you and your co-travelers. Granted the bulk of Abuja properties is owned by southerners. Was it given to them free or is it the result of their sweat?. What stopped northerners from building these structures?. And how do you define the north?. Are Gbagyi people also a part of your myopic demarcation?.

We all know that you know that we know the northern games. But be assured that this status quo will not subside until the end of time. The indigenous people are slowly are awakening.

The day Yoruba finally decided that even they can survive without this oil and join their southern brethren in questioning your audacity, we will definitely have a different outcome. Until then, and even if not, enjoy the oil, the others can get it done too when the time is right.

Righteousness2:
No Matter how Dirty, irritating, Distasteful, Disgusting, Fradulent, Immoral or wicked your life has been, If you will Genuiely open your Heart and accept JESUS CHRIST, the Blood Shed on the Cross is Over capable to Purge you, Wash you and Make you Perfectly clean. That is the Mercifulness of GOD ALMIGHTY.

As for the RAPTURE! Anyone who is carelessly living his/her life or saying this or that needs to happen before the RAPTURE! I pity u. JESUS Christ could show up anymoment, Any minute, any day now!
Be Ready and Live Ready! Because you Must cry , repent and Lament if you Miss it, but it will be tooo late.

Taah!.

Jesus only happens to a person of Christian faith when their days here on earth are done. Y'all need to quit this rapture nonsense. How you and your co-travelers continue to keep fellow Africans in mental bondage with religion, designed ab initio by your slave masters as a mind-control tool appalls me.

In a fast-moving, dynamic world, where even space travels is fast becoming a routine exercise, Africans are still busy exporting religion and scaring non suspecting faithful with doomsday and apocalypse with the aim to cash out on their sweat.

Make una stop this nonsense abeg.

Rtk5:
sir, it baffles me how some people reason, honstly if i type all my experience with this woman you will think it is fiction. A woman that when i lost my job and there was no money for diapers her sister advised her to steal my phonr and go sell it. Thank God i found it under the bed. I saw the chat with her sister on that.

What role did she play to help stabilize the family income while you were between jobs?.

Opeyemiextra:
Wait for the bashings cos they are coming for you.

And your point is?

flokii:
@OP I'd like to throw an honest question to you and I want you to give an honest answer... would you have made this statement if Igbos were the ones controlling the centre like it was in the first republic when Azikiwe was president and Tafawa Balewa prime minister?

Would this have crossed your mind if Jonathan got a second term with his Igbo backbones taking up all the positions in government?

Even with all the unrest and hostilities in South East, your people are still in every nook and cranny of this country doing business feely and mixing with others.. if they ask you to leave now, you'll cry to UN, US, ICC etc. that Nigerians hate you.

What exactly is wrong with you people and who is holding you back in Nigeria??

Since you're at variance with the questions asked, let me ask you counter questions.

a. If a president of Igbo extraction was at the center, would the north accept nepotism at the current levels?.

b. Would the northern establishment accept an unprovoked militarization of their region by a president of Igbo extraction who oversees pinpoint murder and complete destabilization of the livelihoods of northern people?

c. Why did this same north connive with Tinubu to oust Jonathan who was on the brink of at least containing the activities of Boko Haram with the deployment of mercenary forces?

d. Would the north accept in the manner we see in Nigeria today, a total marginalization from governance from a president of Igbo extraction?

Listen, there are no hostilities in the Southeast. What you have there is a state imported carnage aimed at achieving a set objective. The people cannot be reasonably expected to cower in and swallow these cowardly atrocities without a response in any way they can muster.

Jonathan by the way is an Ogbia man. What exactly is his connection to Igbo?.

As for what is holding "them" back in Nigeria?. You.

They have unequivocally asked to leave this fraudulent contraption. That, not once. What was your response?. Violence.

You’re a big fat liar. Go to the East and see how pple are begging for food to eat. U pple don’t even have land nor food. Same as the west. Lazy pple everywhere that only wants to work in AC offices. Go to Niger delta,there’s is the worse. Those ones don’t even have land nor food...everything has been contaminated and now they have black soot.

But God in his wisdom blessed them with oil and gas. How come your people still follow dem drag that natural resource?

Kobojunkie:
This is not true at all. Moderation is key to good soup. Example of things you can do is medium label of palm oil, instead of a cup of it, and trim fat from all meats before cooking.

Moderation does most things, sister. But you know as I do that it is the language part most people do not speak, hence the generalization. You are right in your suggestion, but even that is not a magic pill. If you do all you have suggested, and that every day, the outcome will be more or less the same.

Therefore, one must moderate in the way that saturated fats slowly become as Buhari will become to most Nigerians on the other side of May 29, 2023. More antioxidants pregnant fruits and good unsaturated fats bearing nuts. Veggies, and yes, that delicious soup and starches in calculated moderation.

Abeg, which culture fulani get?.

EMILO2STAY:
this is the family section of nairaland where you have more serious and matured minded people commenting. I will not say what I said if the info I am giving out is wrong, I am dead serious.

my purpose in life is to free humanity of the bondage of lies we have been fed. HIV was discovered in the 80s ,till date they say there is no cure but corona virus already has a vaccine? if HIV was contracted through sexual intercourse , more than 50℅ of every body today will have the virus.

do you know that kary mulis the inventor of the aids test said that his test kit is not a diagnostic for HIV? this fact is also confirm by the fact that HIV positivity varies from country to country. meaning that a positive HIV in Nigeria can be negative in America. I have seen this happen. the purpose for this is to give you the ARV which is what actually kills you and that is why it is given out freely.

so many people who test positive for HIV do not have HIV this is a fact.

what actually kills you is the ARV you are given to treat aids. that ARV contain azidothymidine or zidovudine. which was actually a chemotherapeutic drug for treating cancer in the 60s but it killed off every patient it was used to treat and so the drug was taken off the shelves bit was brought back in the 80s as a drug for treating HIV.

initially it was killing of patient treated with it but the dosage was later cut down so that it will take longer for it to kill off anybody using it to treat HIV.

dr Robert willner proved that no one can get HIV through sexual intercourse by injecting himself with the blood of people with aids severally and yet his HIV test result always came out negative.

You need to quit watching fox news and finally go get yourself a job.

when I was younger I did like a lot of soup now I don’t even I complain about my wife now and she used to talk about mine before .. I just found myself not wanting too much of soups again especially stew

No worries bro. Most soups are unhealthy anyway. They obviously contain too many saturated fats that are definitely gonna elevate your LDL cholesterol and set one up for an earlier date with Jesus.

You are doing well!.

SayAsSeen:
Hello friends, I'd like to ask intelligent and older minds for advise about an issue before I react.

My wife's elder brother is visiting my house and my wife has been serving his food first before serving and bringing my good, in my own house.


Please I just want to ask if this is wrong or right or even just normal?

I worked all through the night and was famished by the time the day broke this morning. I gave her some dough and told her to prepare me noodles and sardine, emphasizing on the fact that I was very hungry.

NOTE: Her Brother was still asleep at this time.

She prepared the meal, split it into two. Woke up and served her brother first in my guest room before coming to my room to give her hungry husband his food.

I was so mad, I ignored the food, went out to smoke a cigarette. While I was doing that it occured to me ask for advice here, because I didn't want to ask anybody I knew personally.

I still don't know whether to be mad, or to just ignore it.

I am a strong believer of common sense and respect and her actions this morning lack both! It would have take her less than 30 seconds to give me my food then go wake and serve her brother!

Is she told me she needed money for something and I put my younger sister's need over her's-no matter how tribal her's might be-i know how she'd react and the amount of making up I'd have to do.

I am trying to be very mature about this, that's why I keeping things anonymous?

Besides I'd like to know, I possibly can't be the only person who has experienced this sort of situation because they say there's nothing new under the sun. Please who has ever felt this way, I am very understanding and if something irks me, it would irk every body else too.


Wish I could explain better

You actually made a mistake. That mistake is coming to Nairaland to seek advice from intelligent and older minds.

You must have realized your mistake before now though if you took the time to read through your thread. What you seek is in very short supply here on Nairaland.

In fact, the shortage pass government palliative sef. This joint here is populated with adolescents, a huge dosage of feminists, and their accompanying sadist, and of course, jokers.

Keep your thoughts with you next time, and intensively chew over them first. The solutions will come. That's how we learn.

As for your wife. Call her into the bedroom, and quietly advise her to the effect that you're not comfortable playing second fiddle in your own home, then let it die.

Na so nonsense dey take start

Of what economic value is that rail line? They should decline the loan.

Easy.

Start an online campaign.
Collect 1 million signatures to that effect, and watch the impending Fulani fraud die a natural death.

Oyinbo man's conscience is not completely dead. They only act like it does when their livelihood is under threat. This appears not to be the case here.

Tumbulum:
what's your qualification?

Who wants to know, and why do you ask?.

So, let's count, shall we?.

How many universities, Polytechnics, and technical colleges do we have in Nigeria again?.
And they are all teaching and yearly graduating students in Civil engineering, Mechanical engineering, Electrical engineering, etc.
But we have to import the Chinese, and now Central Europe's weakest in terms of engineering and economy to do that for which we supposedly have professors littering the space.

What happened to our HND, B.Sc, and M.Sc holders?. How about our Ph.D's?.

Shame on Nigeria and Africa as a whole.

richmond500:
Imagine looking for a Job for 3years and ur rich Uncle decide to fix ur name somewhere in Abuja with salary of N250k and accommodation but u didn't meet any of the requirements for the job.

The Job needs a graduate with at least 5years experience while u are actually a secondary school drop out. Ur uncle decide to forge a certificate for u and then secured the job for u.

Will you accept it?

Since the operating word here is integrity, the question ough to be, even if you do not meet all the paper requirements, can you still adequately satisfy that position with your knowledge through other life or vocational experiences or otherwise.

Notice that I silently ignored your uncle's miseed. No be you send am.

BOLA TINUBU OR YEMI OSINBAJO

And these are the only Nigerians qualified to be president you know?.

Most of us don't seem to get it yet. Northern Nigeria establishment had always understood that we are not one. They know that they need to keep a chokehold on the armed forces as a guarantee for the dominance of Nigeria's political space and survival.

They must populate the military with their kind. Who is it lost upon that the official language in the army is Hausa, the religion, Islam?.
By implication, they are directly telling you that they trust a confirmed terrorist than non-muslims or non-northerners.

These people have a feudal mindset. You as a non-muslim and non-gambari are none but a necessary idiot. In reality, a nuisance.

We don't need prophet Isaiah or Ezekiel to tell us this again, As we all seen today Nigeria will no longer last 4 years.
Nigeria will divide into more than 15 parts.
Among these 15 countries, which one will take over the title giant of africa?
well, Yoruba republic and Ijaw Republic will battle for such spot.

4 reasons Ijaw nation will edged out Yoruba nation to claimed that title....

1..crude oil. This is no doubt will gear Ijaw nation to be the wealthiest black nation...

2..self-made.. Ijaws are good at producing things like boat, flying boat, etc, and self-made weapons like gun-boat, bomb, gun, spear.. this will boost Ijaw economy...

3...sea access... This tripled Ijaw economy success..

4..Biafra landlocked.. the division of nigeria will no doubt make Igbos landlocked.
Biafra landlocked will gives Ijaw nation advantage..
Igbos will need sea access more than any other persons..
They need sea to either laid their crude oil pipes to preferable nation for sell or sea to load their crude oil with vessels to another country, this will make biafra government to strike deal with the Ijaw government for either periodic payment or annual payment for the usage of her Sea spaces......
This will indeed generate lots of incomes for the Ijaw nation...

God really loved the Ijaw people. He blessed them with everything.

People are having troubles with Ijaws from left to right because of the gifts God blessed them with..

Go easy on that weed. Just friendly advice.

The people selling alcohol drinks there... should relocate to states that's giving consent to it ...


Kano is an Islamic state and it's under islamic rulings.... Reasons there is Sharia functioning there and hisbah as well...


If you're rejected, don't force yourself to stay.... Leave!

Sorry, but.
Nigeria is a secular state.
Kano is a component state of Nigeria, therefore falls within all letters of the constitution including the provision that there will be only one police force.
Hisba is a usurp of that provision of the constitution as amended, therefore illegal.
