Delivar:My friend your point is mute and your epistle irrelevant so I'm only going to address the highlighted parts of your epistle. A Nigerian president that is very educated surely would have prioritized education and employment over many other things, leadership at the top is paramount to successful nation building, if you disagree then continue arguing with your keyboard. Next, you said speed of development has nothing o do with a nation's age but this is another fallacy. All credible scholars agree that Rome was not built ina day, this theory effectively means only time and concentrated efforts can repair the damages of decades and even centuries of wrongdoings. It's getting pointless arguing with you because you keep shouting advanced societies yetyou've clearly failed to describe what makes up these advanced socieies. The average American is only slightly more educated than the average Nigerian. When it comes to sharpness, I can put my money on the average Nigerian surviving anywhere, I cannot do the same for the average American hence your theory is ridiculous! Finally, how much do you pay for house rent? How much do you pay for NEPA? Those who nare poor in America can still afford to pay $200 per month for house rent and another $50 per month for electricity; this equates to $3000 per year, can you afford to pay 1 million Naira per year for rent and NEPA? No because it would be ridiculous to subject the average Nigerian to such hence the reason $2 per day is a ridiculous baseline for poverty based on the white men reasoning. Standard and cost of living varies across countries, you can't just say people in Zimbabwe or Togo are living on less than $2 per day so they must be suffering or starving because people in the U.S or U.K cannot live on such. |
In this life envy no one, all that glitters is not gold....SMH! |
Delivar:First of all, I never defended Tinubu, I only objected to baseless accusations without facts or evidence, if you have proper evidence I'll support you in publishing them for all to see. Next I'm not against comparison but we should do so on equal terms. You cannot ignore the imperial rule of China and then turnaround and admit the military rule or ancestrial history of Nigeria. Your premise is BS and you know it! I have no problem admitting Nigeria is still lagging behind in terms of development but lagging behind is not the same as having no meaningful development since 1960. Moving on, do you have any evidence that the average IQ of a Nigerian is well below the worldwide average? For example are those in Somalia, Zimbabwe, Indonesia and so on more brilliant than the average Nigerian? I think you are confusing IQ with moral empathy, someone can be intelligent and yet corrupt. A person can be brilliant yet be greedy, if you think more education will automatically get rid of corruption in Nigeria then you are sadly mistaken. We've had 2 presidents, one a Ph.D holder and another one alledgedly uneducated, same issues, same problems. Lastly, surviving on less than $2 a day does not equate poor in Nigeria when you consider what the minimum wage is and the cost of living. Back in my school days, 700 Naira per day was more than adequate, 20k per month is not poverty so screw the international community and their bias assessment. Yes there is poverty in Nigeria especially the North but we also have corruption, greediness and a lot of wastages. Your assessment is based on faulty premise and not logical assessment, I implore you to seek true enlightenment! |
megafem1:So you would bet on a game between Man City and Real Madrid this season based on past performances? You won't look into current form, current coach, current playstyle, injuries and so on? Your mumu never do ![]() |
Beemhan:Hahahaha...No need to argue then, just go back to my initial post which you quoted and see my statement was based on top6 vs top6. Any other argument is irrelevant and not worthy of discussing! |
Delivar:Where did I say Nigeria progressed significantly by GSM alone? You specifically said Nigeria made no meaningful progress and I pointed out GSM as one of those areas Nigeria made progress on, I also pointed out banking reforms, we could also talk about private sector reforms such as ease of business registration, taxation and so on, these are meaningful progress. Once again comparing China to Nigeria is a lost argument, the reason I used the U.S as an example is based on the fact that they too were colonized. You cannot compaere Nigeria to China or France, that is an unfair comparison. One might even say comparing Nigeria to the U.S. is unfair too considering that they are not dealing with the tribal/ethnic religious crap that Nigeria deals with. No, the age of a nation is not irrelevant, it factors into its development. China had more years to develop than any nation but due to the size of the population one can excuse the delay. The U.S took over 150 years to become stable, South Africa had to endure colonization and apartheid. Like I said before, less than 10% of previously colonized countries are better than Nigeria. I also put it to you that Nigeria is actually less than 20 years old, if you are going to count the military era then you cannot discount China's imperial rule, if China could not progress during imperial rule why would Nigeria? The Communist party took over in the 1940s and did not fully realize the economic revolution until almost 60 years later, so chill! In regards to Tinubu, I prefer not to argue with you about that, you clearly have no evideence hence your shift from murder to rigging. |
megafem1:Sevilla beat Liverpool in 2016, will you put your money that they can do it in 2018? Tottenham beat Madrid in the past but I'm not puting my money that they can do it this year. I'm strictly focused on the present can the top 6 Laliga teams from last year defeat the top6 Premiership teams from last year. I see 3 wins for each side and on a good day 4 wins for Premiership. Barcelona vs Man city Athletico Madrid vs Man U Real Madrid vs Tottenham Valencia vs Liverpool Villareal vs Chelsea Betis vs Arsenal |
Delivar:With all due respect, what you just typed is jargon! Development comes in various forms and one of it is infrastructural and technological. If you don't see telecommunication as a vital part of economical pogress then there is no point arguing with you. You want to talk about history but you are being selective, how can you discount a country's foundation and only focus on its revolution? Nigeria gained independence in 1960, China was never colonized. This means China had years upon years to build up their country, over 2000 years to be exact. Comparing Nigeria with China is comparing apples with oranges, different class, different components. Compare Nigeria with another country that was colonized and let's see how many countries are actually better off then Nigeria, you'll be surprised to find less than 10%. Furthermore, yes I'm asking you to put up facts, you can't keep making statements of criminality against someone without facts to back it up. Show me the way and method Tinubu used to murder people. Don't forget to include the names of the people also, transparency is the key here! |
Delivar:Your example of China shows that you don't know much about the topic at hand. The Chinese communist party was hell in it's first 40 years, China was a laughing stock all the way till the late 90s and before that, the country basically enslaved its people for over 2000 years with imperial rule, abeg stop the baseless comparison. Moving on, who brought the GSM you use to Nigeria? The internet providers, the reform in the banking sector to name a few. To say we have not witnessed any meaningful development since 1960s is a FALLACY! Nigeria is nowhere near where it should be but it is also not the worst country in the world, just 15 years ago, you wouldn't have Nairaland or any means of reaching your loved ones far away in a reasonable amount of time or medium. Finally, you speak of Tinubu being a criminal yet you cannot challenge him in court because you claim the justice system is messed up, I think there are other ways to put pressure on someone besides the justice system. Why don't you gather up your facts and evidence, put it up in a blog and spread it out throughout 9ja? Be sure to put your real name and your address so that people can give credit where it is due. This is what true heroics/patriotism is all about and it is the main reason why those advanced countries are advancing, not useless rants with no action! |
Delivar:You love comparing apples with oranges. Nigeria a country less than 60 years old is being compared with one of over 240 years. You can try researching the politics of the U.S in the 1840s and see just how advanced they were. Another classic example would be the Great depression of the 1940s, where the average American could not eat more than one meal per day. Where the IQ's of the people back then faulty? You have a lot to learn, the awesomeness of those advanced societies took a lot of learning and sacrifices along the way, Soros is exactly like Tinubu, anybody willing to financially back a political candidate is sure to receive special favors from those candidates when elected. This is how lobbying works, this is why the U.S. cannot pass any meaningful gun control law. When it comes to history and politics, you better educate yourself more and rely less on emotional attachment! |
Beemhan:Liverpool in 2016 was not technically sound but this is about Top6 not top4. We live in the present, are you willing to put your money on Sevilla against Arsenal or Chelsea this season? What about Valencia against Arsenal or Chelsea? Top 6 vs Top 6 are you confident the EPL won't win 3 of those contest? |
ClintonNzedimma:We live in the present, are you willing to put your money on Sevilla against Arsenal or Chelsea this season? What about Valencia against Arsenal or Chelsea? Top 6 vs Top 6 are you confident the EPL won't win 3 of those contest? |
Princedapace:Apart from Madrid, Barcelona and perhaps Athletico Madrid, which other Spanish teams are you willing to bet on against the top 6 in the Premiership? Valencia, Sevilla....lol |
Delivar:I beg to differ, Nigerians are a lot smarter than the average American but due to extreme poverty and kissing *** we won't heavily criticize anyone capable of getting us from rags to riches. This has nothing to do with IQ my friend otherwise you would be admitting that you are one of those low IQ individuals . Like I said earlier, you can' take down someone that is not bound by electoral mandate, this is the reason people like the Soros exists here in the U.S, godfatherism and lobbying are forever part of politics, that is why they call politicians 'dirty'. |
Delivar:Hahaha, can you stand bodly in a court of law and accuse him of such? If yes, why can't you sue him? The difference between citizens of the U.S or U.K and that of Nigeria is that in Nigeria we like to hide behind the keyboard and beat our chest while in those countries they actually expose them legally and through the media with cold hard evidence. |
Delivar:Wow....Nigerians truly are out of touch with reality, we have over 20 Tinubus in the U.S. but they are codedly behind the scenes! Tinubu is not in any citizen appointed position, he is a godfather in Nigerian politics hence would not be under the scrutiny you would normally hold elected officials. Even as advanced as the U.S is in terms of politics, there are those underneath such as the Soros and other heavy financial backers who control things behind the scenes. Calling Trump or Blair a saint is just laughable, I don't need to argue about that, it's ridiculous ![]() |
Whobedatte:Yes, Tony Blair hated very much after he left office and Trump, well we all know how that is.....lol. Keep in mind you don't have to be greedy to be ineffective or clueless! |
Delivar:U.K voted for Tony Blair, U.S. voted for Bush and Trump, are you telling me majority of people in those countries have low I.Q and are uneducated? Oga park well, you understand nothing about politics and human emotions, it has nothing to do with logic and more to do with power of persuassion! |
Juju dey for constitution? Illiterate police and illiterate accused, 9ja na wa o ![]() |
46O1CE:Go back and read what I wrote and stop blabbering! |
gidgiddy:Can a rock be used as a weapon? Can someone get injured from getting stoned with a rock? If yes then those citizens were not unarmed. Where I agree with your assessment is that lethal force should not have been used, we have tear gas, rubber bullets and so on, seems our military had orders to shoot at sight.....SHAME! |
DoTheNeedful:The minimum is about $1500($1200 after tax) based on official figures but it is not realistic, $3000($2400 after tax) is the minnimum monthly pay to be able to live in any state without depending on the government or subsidies but keep in mind these figures will not make you comfortable, you'll still be living paycheck to paycheck like most Americans...lol |
The cash on that floor is less than $200, assuming she strips 3 days a week for a month, she would make approx. $2400. She's stil stuck in the poverty lifestyle here in the U.S. and her reputation just took a major hit in case she ever decides to get back to the professional world but I guess she's still better off than those food stamp thots using kids as a meal ticket....lol |
You people are funny, Trump does not have the constitutional power to grant such an order. Only the U.S Congress can do such, as the right to birthright citizenship is afforded by the 14th Amendment. Trump is fighting a lost battle on this one! |
We no longer have men in Nigeria rather we have animals parading as men. I'm sure other guys witnessed the slaps and could not defend the girl. I'm not even talking about the inapproprate touching rather I'm concerned about a guy slapping a girl 6 times, bunch of pathetic weaklings! |
Affiliate marketing will not help unemployed Nigerian youths, most Nigerian youths do not have a website, they cannot aafford the technical and business skills necessary to maintain such websites. They cannot afford the fees and above all they do not have the network(people) necessary for affiliate marketing to be truly profitable. |
The only time babies on a U.S. registered plane are granted citizenship is if the aircraft is in U.S. space either over land or water. Once you are outside of the space your ciizenship depends on the nationality of the mother or father. |
Born2Breed:There could be numerous reasons, one could be the metoo movement in the U.S. Any case regarding women abuse or women in general is likely to favor the woman right now in the U.S. Another possible reason is that he is also facing another case for fraud, it gets difficult trying to juggle both cases. There are many many possibilities including reputational damage or the possibility that he might actually be guilty, we will never truly know I guess ![]() |
MsSantaClaus:That is the url on my side, I guess you have to do it manually. Try this link: https://eaccess.dccourts.gov/eaccess/home.page.3 Enter the capatcha, click on name search and enter mustapha audu as the name. Click on the case number and go to the bottom of the page and look for "09/10/2018 Order Granting Defendant's Motion for Fees and Costs signed by J/Mott on September 10, 2018. Submitted 09/10/2018 18:11. kd", click on the image sign beside it and you'll read about the whole case and how the judge arrived at the decision. |

MsSantaClaus:Stop getting defensive, I have read the case file and there is no guilty verdict there. Notice I never said the guy was innocent, I'm just saying there are other reasons for dropping a defamation case besides being guilty. I'm also based in the U.S so I'm well aware of cases being available to the public. |
MsSantaClaus:According to what was posted here, the court did not find anyone guilty. He dropped the case hence the reason why he was ordered to pay her legal fees. Unless you have documents other than the ones posted here, I'm finding it hard to see how you reach such a conclusion. |
