My brother, I am not jobless. Mind your utterance. If you don't want to pray, there are people willing to do it. We are not forcing it on anybody.

Read what I wrote and this time, come back at me with some logic! You might not be jobless but the majority of the people you're inviting are most CERTAINLY! Blatant disregard for them is the reason you have the guts to schedule a prayer session on a midnight middle of a work week.....You don't rate them at all!

Adullam001:
Look at how people are dying and going to eternity every seconds. This is to show you that this world is not our own. Believe it or not, you are a stranger in this earth and every minute of the day draws you closer to eternity. It won't matter your achievements in this earth because you won't carry it to the grave. What matters is your relationship with Jesus. Is your name written in the book of life.

If no be joblessness and outright spirit of medicority......Why would able bodied citizens be having prayer sessions at midnight during a work day? This is what 9ja has turned to, a DISGRACE!

Same operandi as his first term, dem go try try and try to impeach him but will never pass both legislative houses. This time around, Trump is a president with nothing to lose, the nigga will fulfill his campaign promises or at elast try his very best......Feelings be damned!

Lagoon from Lagos is DIABOLICAL.........Omo ain't no place like a Lagoon party cos a Lagoon party don't bother nobody

What's your state of origin? Lagoon!

Governor of Lagoon

Capital of Lagoon? It's got to be Eti-Osa

Kemetian:
You are the very epitome of a brainless idiot.

What have people in Gaza got to do with Nigeria and Fulani?

Comparing isolated incidents of banditry in Nigeria with the potential wholesale genocide and displacement of 2 million people from their land in Palestine, and justifying the latter based on the former makes you an animal with no morals.

Isolated gini? Those isolated incidents are extensions of terrorism since 2004, coupled with poverty as a weapon policies of past and present administration is responsible for displacing millions of Nigerians.....E be like say some of una dey live for alternate reality. I would dare you to actually visit Borno and check the records of how many families were destroyed the past two decades.

Dogalmighty17:
I do not have time for fools. The last time US attempted something this stupid in the middle east, oil shot up over 300% and Ronald Reagan had to back down. You'd remember the beirut bombing where over 700 American soldiers died and there was no US response.

The issue of Palestine is like mosquito on a man's testicles. Only a fool handles it brashly. Better presidents than Trump have tried managing the matter. He goes ahead and does this, America will FAFO.

You're talking about the USA before 9/11, the USA after 9/11 is much more proactive and reactive.....Dem go dey fight you but you no fit know, na your own people go finish the work

passion007:
Try freeing yourself sometimes, not everything is racism. How boring that you bring race into every discussion.

Did you miss my point about soft skills? I'm sure that went right over your head.

Communication is only 7% verbal...over 90% is nonverbal. You only know what was said, you have no clue of the context. Was she fidgety? Over defensive? Over explaining?
I'm sure you're not interested in that. All you want is to be a racism champion with 15 years in the UK as your credential.

Free yourself and actually enjoy the country you live in. Let racism be the last explanation for human behaviour, not the first one!

Again you're simply ignorant here, the professional is the one that should exercise due diligence and act PROFESSIONALLY!

Police confronted you in front of a pharmacy about suspicion of being a drug user/dealer and instead of going straight to the source and inquiring with the pharmacy, they preferred to do an home inspection? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!

So they left the pharmacy, followed her all the way home and then searched her home invading her privacy and dehumanizing her, even tho such searches usually requires a WARRANT? This is what you called normal police behavior?

I know as a Nigerian you're used to not having basic human rights so I'm not surprised you are deflecting from my points and making it all about communication. FYI, I don't live in the UK, I live in the USA and I've seen police sued for much much less, in fact the story makes no damn sense!

Watch them start fighting one another on Nairaland not knowing none of these politicians give a flip about their survival . Millionaires and Billionaires dey fight, na person wey no know if him or her go see food chop this night dey argue....No be juju be that?

passion007:
You don't seem to understand police protocol very much. Mrs X rightly alerts police about a lady who is on the phone speaking loudly (our girl admits she was) about getting drugs and excited about getting these drugs to someone else. Mrs X thinks this is a drug deal with intent to supply and shares this with police. Police arrive and our girl admits she did indeed purchase drugs. Later on, she realises the miscommunication and wants to clarify things. Police therefore feel she may be changing her story and continue to conduct a search to be absolutely certain.
Unfortunately we sometimes lack soft skills that can help to deescalate these sort of situations.
The girl in question fully understands what went wrong which relates to miscommunication, has learnt the lesson and most importantly, shared the lesson with others.

That's all that is apparent from this story. You really have to make loads of assumptions to identify any (c)overt racism in this case.

Again you're speaking jargon, she was still in front of the pharmacy, a competent police officer without bias would confirm her statement by interviewing the pharmacy clerk. It was easily verifiable and I repeat a white woman woluld not be treated in such a way, no way a white woman would leave that scene and be subjected to HOME INSPECTION......You can spew all the jargon you want but this was clearly a breach of proper police protocol!

passion007:
Once you put race at the center of your thinking, you stop understanding basic gaffes.

Even the victim did not once mention racism. She simply shared what the issue was, which was miscommunication.
Once a police report is received on drug dealing, the police have to investigate until there's reasonable evidence to the contrary.

Your contrary argument about a white person makes no sense in this case. Why would a white British woman refer to medications as drugs?
It simply will never happen. Case closed.

The victim might not be educated or wise enough to see the bigger picture, I've lived abroad for over 15 yeras now and have police officers and military personnel in my family, there are protocols to these things and this case is blatantly evident of poor protocol. Why would a white British woman refer to medications as drugs? White woman does not have to be British! We have many Americans living or visiting Britain, we have many non British Europeans who would call medication, drugs! Stop this baseless assumption!

Finally, unless the poster made it all up or sweetened it with some lamba, there was abundance of evidence to not treat her like a drug dealer or user! It is you that failed to see the sense in my analysis because as usual subtle bias is not often recognized until it causes actual damages!

passion007:
Context is everything.
If you've ever lived in the UK, you'll know there's no racism in this.

Medications are what you get from the chemist.
Drugs are illicit substances.

Language is dependent on geography.
In the UK, being sick means vomiting.
In Nigeria being sick means feeling unwell.

The purpose of language is communication so when we move abroad, we learn the language of the new country, including any contextual cues and adapt to that new way of speaking, otherwise we may be misunderstood.
The girl has learned the lesson and is learning how to be British, which is about not taking oneself too seriously, and being able to laugh at one's mistakes

That's bullshit and you know it! Proper police training would have had one of the officer confirm from the pharmacy what was bought! Let's play the scenario again and change the main character to a white woman, her explanation at the scene coupled with the fact that she's still in front of the pharmacy and can clearly show what she bought would have been ENOUGH to let her go!

Stop making excuses for racial profiling and bias, it's a cancer that has no room in the modern society!

CoronaVirusPro:
Who told you it did not come true? Trump shot the national dept through the roof with nothing to show for it, and now the average citizens will have to pay for it.

He will ground the IS economy that am certain about. He will never leave an economy better than that on Biden.

The dollar will lose a big chunk of its value under Trump.

Yea because Covid didn't require those spending, you're being deliberately fraudulent with your comment, Trump's economy was booming 2017, 2018 and even 2019, it wasn't until Covid hit in 2020 before things fell apart......Nice try tho

CoronaVirusPro:
Hedge funds manager already betting on America’s stock market doom!

Trump will run America to the ground just like all of his failed businesses.

Yea the doom prophesy didn't come true the first term and it won't come true this time either.....America has always been bigger than any one president.....

Golan007:
Why are you angry that I've pointed out that no country has to take US has a superpower or responsible trade partner?

Loans and grants bla, bla, bla, yet we can see China's footprint all over Africa.

This is 2025.

Let US continue thinking this is 1970.

The game is old.

I only answered your question, don't know where you got the anger from but stop projecting! Just because you say something does not make it a fact......You still haven't answered, is China's footprint in Africa for FREE? Yea don't dodge this question, sooner you stop glazing China the better

Golan007:
Argumentum ad hominem.

As you cannot answer, you go into diatribes, as if you are feeding anyone.

No it's a logical question, I don't know why you would have the expectation that another country should take care of your own.......Entitlement is a big disease in Africa, your failure to hold your leaders accountable so you make tantrums against foreign countries!

I already answered your question about the billion s in grants and loans so the REAL QUESTION is, what have your leaders done with the money?

Golan007:
What has USA done for a singular country in Africa, free or not?

What have you done for your family or Nigeria? The billions in grant money provided over the years or the loans constantly engulfed by your politicians, those don't count? Abi who do you think mostly funds NATO, WHO, World Bank etc?

Golan007:
China has been providing infrastructure in Africa.

Show us one km of rail the US laid all these years.

China is not doing it for FREE nigga, educate yourself!

Golan007:
Who gives a full about US's military
Who dem epp?

Name one country the US has helped and liberated.

Just one.

Surely you can't be serious? This is a dumb question that does not warrant a response!

Golan007:
While she's fixing bridges other countries would be paying obeisance to her.

Other countries would do so regardless because the USA has the biggest military and reach in the world

Golan007:
You do realise lots of projects are being undertaken in Africa by China.

Let US keep thinking it is USAID the people care about.

Yes but the difference here is that China invests way more in its people than outside of China.....export is China's number one non human asset and it encourages production.....This is a nation with foward thinking agenda!

Golan007:
Infrastructure is the problem of USA?

Yes! In case you don't know there's housing shortage across the USA, water supply is poor in so many states and we've had incidences of bridge and building collapsing.....It's almost like a tushed up 3rd country!

Golan007:
I was being sarcastic.

Once US abdicates it's role as wholesome trade partner, benefactor, superpower, all other nations would isolate it.

There's absolutely nothing special about USA.

Bullshit.....You can still be a superpower(China) without running yourself bankrupt, no reason cities like Detroit or Chicago should be in infrastructural deacy while the USA sends money to Ukraine & Isreal. It's a DISGRACE!

VanuatuWycombe:
It’s like Nigeria subsidizing petrol for other West African companies. Nigerians need not complain then.

Everybody should complain, it is illogical! If the USA had a president like Trump for 12 years straight, lots of shit would be set straight including the focus more on US infrastructures and issues and less focus on subsidizing the world

Golan007:
Let USA trade with only countries it enjoys a surplus from.

Unfortunately, the country refuses to do the logical thing, always playing hero and daddy of democracy even at its own detriment!

Benwallt:
Canada is not a barren land and not landlocked too

Yet it enjoyed trading with the USA with the USA left with a deficit almost every year for the past 20 years......Basically the USA is trading with Canada at a loss, so is Mexio and a bunch of countries......Basically U.S is subsidizing all these countries while being in debt of 36 Trillion and above......No be juju be that?

cococandy:
Who was the petitioner?

The wife, SUZZETTE VAN-LARE.

cococandy:
I hear there was a restraining order against him

There was only one restraining order filed and that was in 2023 and the petitioner did not show up to court resulting in the case being dismissed.

After studying abroad, do you plan to come back to 9ja? If yes, to what JOB? If no then it does not matter what you graduated with, as long as the school issues you an i-20 or similar documentation then you're good to go for the visa interview!

GloriousGbola:
A lot of bs

The guy did not lose any license

Apparently he was paying $1900 per month and according to the dad defaulting

He has been separated from the wife since 2022 domestic violence matter

He was a cardiologist and they can pull 500k a year

His wife was not doing bad either - she is a physician assistant and can pull 120k a year

What happened is pauperised red piller Nigerian males and maybe the doctors friends and family made up a story your would expect and ran with it.

Hungry broke gold digger trophy wife brought from Nigeria

Meanwhile the lady was born and bred in Yankee and had athletic scholarships

The funniest thing is boys cursing out the girls father who is all things considered a polygamous hero. An American Ned Nwoko.

And a man who has his daughters back. Somehow they did not expect that

All of a sudden knacking plenty women is a problem

The dad alleges the doctor came to the wife's place with a gun, held them hostage for 3 hours and then killed himself. Not sure if that is true

In the end everyone has lost

The dude was 36 years old and a successful doctor. He had serious disposable income, was handsome so I can't understand
So maybe the anger management and controlling issues track. As mum and dad were medical,he had a sister who was also medical with her husband and they moved fully to the US in the 90s. First born is a successful doctor. My sis was telling me dude has a g wagon and his baby mama dey also deal with him. You have money so you roll with it.

Most cardiologist don't make more than $250k to 400k per year, the deceased is not a veteran cardiologist(Minimum 10 years of practice) so he's probably on the lower end of that scale. Further, when you factor in taxation, the man might not even earn 25k per month, having such a person pay $15k per month as child support is DIABOLICAL! That's 60% or more of his net income!

What's even more diabolical is that he would pay this without having access to his kids....In no world is this fair, if he was truly a danger to his kids there would be a restraining order against him and criminal proceedings, let's stop typing and judging issues without empathy, remmber you could have a son or daughter in similar situation one day, hopefully he or she won't feel helpless to the point of kpaing him or herself!

This is why some physicians have started recording audio consent from patients. They now have the device attached to them and before starting the examination, they let the patient know that the conversation is being recorded and do they have permission to proceed.

Unfortunately, this is how it has to be from now on and it will only get worse.......Everybody is looking for a payday and professsional men are the easiest target!

homebase:
Oh, and in your frozen brain, you are thinking your lord and saviour, the village idiot wouldn't have issued an average of 200 orders per year by time he is done with his second term at the rate he is going?

Except for the Lgbt order, most of the orders are hinged on personal vendetta and desire to really show his true self - a dictator.

Again you're ignorant, if an executive order is unlawful or unjust, we have the judiciary there to intervene, an example is the birthright citizenship order. Don't use your yansh to think, be a decent human and do proper research!
