AbdulHakeem44: Una just like hyping USA unnecessarily. Who told you the capabilities didn't match. Were you there? Are the engineer? Nigerians eehn. Aircraft carriers that can't float alone but with frigates and corvette surrounding it.
As long as it
Can deploy jets Has a strong radar system Launch cruise missiles, intercontinental ballistic missiles
What is the big deal about carriers? Just to transport aircraft and deploy immediately instead of flying from far base and defend itself, what else
Hyping too much.
Someone said something similar like this last year. He said US aircraft carriers are sitting duck and that China can strike them. But the same China is building more aircraft carriers. I wonder why China want to have more "sitting ducks" .
nairalander2020: China is expanding its military capability to counter US and their puppet allies. Good one from China.
And you think the US is sitting, waiting for Chinese Military to reach their level? Lol. Funny people. The US have 11 aircraft carriers (all nuclear powered) and they are still building more. All other countries share 12 aircraft carriers, with China having 3.
In essence, there are 23 aircraft carriers in the world. Only the US have 11 (all nuclear powered)
Dalil8: "The United States, having declared victory in the Cold War, declared themselves the messengers of God on earth, who have no obligations, but only interests.
They seem not to notice that new powerful centers have formed on the planet"
~ President Vladimir Putin at #SPIEF2022
A great power is rising in the East.
A great power is rising in the east because of 3 chinese Aircraft carrier? Lol. Funny people. You know when US start to use aircraft carrier. Educate yourself on current US aircraft carriers, their numbers and capacities.
Parachoko: At a mosque in Abuja, an Alfa was suspended for criticising Buhari, people wailed bitterly about it. They said there is freedom of speech, and the Alfa shouldn't have been suspended indefinitely for castigating Buhari.
I hope those set of people wey wail against the removal of the Alfa will also wail bitterly about the removal of Father Ejike Mbaka for expressing his opinion.
I am not even Igbo, but only zombies like you can't see the differences in the 2 scenarios.
The major problem with the Igbo people is their love for money and the extent they can go to get that money. Money is the beginning and ending of their existence. It's in Igbo land you can see a young man in his 30s slap an old man in his 70s and the people around will be hailing the young man because he has money.
The Average Igbo man respect only money which is the reason for these baby factories because without money, NOBODY can ever respect you in Igbo land. NOBODY!!! Not even your child.
immortalcrown: How did he fight Buhari? On which date did it happen. The only time I know he spoke was when his pastor became a victim of the kidnapping. Another time was when the government made a move to tax Churches. When did he fight Buhari concerning bad leadership in general? Please, inform me, give me links to his fight against Buhari. Do not tell me to go to Google oh.
Only fools like you expect him to call Buhari's name so as to appease zombies like you. When did he fight Buhari? But you have mentioned 2 instances already.
Go sleep zombie. Just know that no man of God criticises this govt more than Bishop David Oyedepo. If you are waiting for him to call Buhari idiot, cow, goat, then you more stupid than I thought.
immortalcrown: Medicine after death. You are talking now because the regime has almost ended. Even during 2019 election, you did not sound this way. Were you sleeping or was the regime good then? You are talking now because you know your statement will not work against them. You should have said it when it mattered, when they would have come after you, when your followers would have gained correction from the statement. Keep deceiving yourself.
Added People are quoting me saying he has been condemning Bubu since 2015. Please, how did he fight Buhari? On which date did it happen. The only time I know he spoke was when a pastor became a victim of the kidnapping in the North. Another time was when the government made a move to tax Churches. When did he fight Buhari concerning bad leadership in general? Please, inform me, give me links to his fight against Buhari. Do not tell me to go to Google oh. You might be saying the truth. So, give me evidence, apart from his reactions to kidnapping and taxing of Churches. Give me an evidence so I will be convinced my first paragraph is wrong. Post at least links to the evidence here. Do not tell me to use Google oh. And, the evidence should not be his reactions to kidnapping of a pastor and taxing of Churches. I already know those ones. If I get the evidence, I will add an apology as a third paragraph. But if no evidence is provided, those who insult me should keep ranting.
Added Again Imagine some people telling me Oyedepo has been the person most active in attacking Buhari. Please, where, when and how? When Mbaka was for Buhari and against GEJ, Mbaka was brave and direct in his statements. When the same Mbaka turned against Buhari, Mbaka was brave and direct in talking to Buhari. Oyedepo has not tried it even now. Oyedepo has not spoken like Bishop Kokah and many other religious leaders do.
People that were brave and honest mentioned Buhari or at least used "This regime" when they criticized this regime and when they warned people against voting for Buhari again. Oyedepo did not do such at all. Instead of being direct, he was ambiguous so nobody could attack him or prove he was talking about Buhari's regime. So, where is his brave fight against Buhari. People specifically called Buhari's name and said the bad things he does. Oyedepo was using a pronoun that no particular person could claim even in a law court. Is that how he sounds when talking about how God will deal with those who do not pay tithes? Does he sound ambiguous when talking about tithes? For example, if I say "An old man whose hand is shaking wants to rule Nigeria", many will assume I am referring to a popular presidential candidate. But a sincere person will not say I am bold or brave in the statement. People will know I am avoiding being direct in the statement. And nobody can use it to prove me guilty in a court. Oyedepo knows it and that is why he chose his words carefully and was not direct until now. For tithes, he would say "If you are a child of God and you not pay tithes....". But he never mentioned the name Buhari during the time you claim he was bravely attacking Buhari. Those who bravely attacked Buhari called his name many times and were direct in their statements.
I so much love the challenge I threw out this night. Those attacking me could not prove me wrong. They just uploaded videos I have already seen many times. I have watched the videos again this night to be sure I did not forget how Oyedepo sounded in those videos. None of the videos proves me wrong. In all the videos, the only part Oyedepo boldly directed his statement to this regime is where he said "Those in power "NOW" are against the Church". I already acknowledged that one in my first paragraph. Where he spoke about RUGA, he used the term "No government has the power to take people's land". In this case, even Buhari cannot prove Oyedepo was referring to this regime. He was not even bold enough to use the word "RUGA". Many people boldly mentioned Buhari and RUGA during the period. Oyedepo spoke in parable. So, where is his brave fight against Buhari? Where He spoke about a president, he said "that is my word to Mr. president". Nobody can use the statement to prove Buhari is the particular president he referred to. Any sincere person who understands English knows there is a big difference between "This" and "A" in a sentence. Oyedepo is well-educated. He knows the consequence of ambiguous statements and that is why he sounded ambiguous in those videos. He himself cannot deny it because he knows many educated people will publicly disgrace him. But this time around, he was direct and bold to use the term "This regime..." because the regime has already achieved its aim. Below are his words in the videos and the links to the videos.
"No government has the right to take people's land." No particular government or regime implied here
"Nigeria shall not see war."
"Whoever does not want Nigeria to rest will not rest." This can refer to anybody
"If you cannot do well, resign. That is my word to Mr. President. Even our Islamic friend are calling for him to resign." Abeg, which president? Even in a court of law, you cannot prove Buhari is the president implied here. There are many presidents in many countries and organizations in which there are huge crisis.
"You and your generation will nevr become refugees"
"A leader will sit down and be looking like mumu." Which leader? Even GEJ was directly called mumu. So, which leader is referred to here?
"I have not benefited a dime from any regime of this country."
"I knew we were going to face this situation." How is this a bold or brave statement against Buhari?
"It will take a dormie not to know the people in power now are against the Church" I already acknowledged that this is the only one that directly and boldly refers to Buhari's regime.
"Is it true they found 20 million voters cards? For who?" Not directed to a particular person.
"To vote for an evil man makes you an evil man." Which candidate or party is the evil? Even PDP was called evil by some people. So, which one is Oyedepo talking about?
"I will never belong to any political party."
"There will be dramatic changes in this election."
"Every scheme to run Nigeria down, the people involved will go down and never to rise."
"Do not vote opinion, vote your conscience."
"Do not vote anxiety, vote integrity."
"Do not vote fear, vote fair."
"I cannot afford to vote for wickedness"
"It is better to vote for a lesser evil where are two evils."
"Collecting 5000 for vote is wrong."
"Do not vote wickedness" Which candidate is the wicked one? Lovers of Buhari will answer Atiku and GEJ. Lovers of GEJ and ATIKU will answer Buhari. So, how is Oyedepo brave and direct in attacking Buhari here?
"Do not vote for the dead." Who is the dead? If you say Buhari, then you should be ashamed of yourself for hating Nnamdi Kanu. And the same Oyedepo has never taken side with Nnamdi Kanu.
"Do not vote enemies of the cross, vote for friends of righteousness."
"Do not vote war, vote peace."
"First time there was an attempt to rule the Church by a government. Otherwise they will start to determine which message you will preach."
"Many attempts on the church for the last four years. Are we not there when they were writing Arabic for police employment?" The same Church which I have already acknowledged.
How can this regime or Buhari claim any of these statements directly refers to him or to this regime? Only the one about Church directly refers to this regime. Does any of these condemn the leadership of Buhari in general the way Oyedepo did in this recent statement where he said "This regime..."?
No wonder your moniker is "immortalclown". You are truly a clown.
For your information, even before 2015, Bishop Oyedepo advised against voting Buhari. It was clowns like you that said he was a PDP pastor.
No Man of God has criticized Buhari more than Bishop Oyedepo. If you expect him to call Buhari's name on the altar of God, then you are a bigger clown than I thought. Those that listens to learn know who is criticising. Even those in government knows.
Serious injuries to the leg killed her? Except in cases of uncontrolled bleeding and/or injuries to vital organs of the body, it is very unlikely for someone who was immediately rushed to a tertiary health care center to die from injuries to the leg. The leg is not a vital organ of the body.
Anyways, may her soul R.I.P. The Lebanese man must spend years in prison!
Urheadmaster: Religion has been the main reason Nigeria is still a backwards nation
A fool and a coward just spoke. What negativity is associated with Christianity in Nigeria? None! But Islam is associated with terrorism, killings of individuals for blasphemy, destruction of properties, etc. How many times have Christians in Nigeria kill innocent people for disrespecting Jesus? is boko Haram propagating a Christian ideology?
Say it as it is coward; Islam has been the main reason Nigeria is still a backward Nation.
I agree with you especially ERIGGA, sometimes I wonder how much dude has made in his whole music career. Soundcity don't even play his video
Sound city is the most useless music channel in this country. They hardly play music of Nigerian artistes. I don't know if they are beefing Nigerian artistes.
erico2k2: I know all that, U forgot o ne crucial thing, when the missionaries came to Africa there was nothing like Nigeria, it was just west part of Africa and the 1st place they came across was Calabar. I made mention of Ibrahim Njoya, Im sure you read a piece about how he started his own thing if allowed to grow it would have been our own in teh west. Have a good look at Ethiopia, they have their own alphabets so are the Indians and the chinease.The Egyptians never had that B4 they built all what they did. Being an Engineer, I have studied in the past Ancient un explained Engineering of early men. There was even proof that during the bronze age, we African could extract Iron from its Ore, there is a well documented video of this on youtube when I find the link I will show you, its a tribe in central Africa, this was far b4 the white men could extract iron. there was proof of Iron as weapon in one of the pyramid as well. I wont need to bore you with all this. What I was trying to say is simple, if the white men had left us we would have been by far more developed than they are right about now cos civilisation started with us Africans, its a shame the British had this talks well documented and here you are saying otherwise. If you studied history of early life of the three major tribes in Nigeria, they had well established system of government and education as well. Do not forget that the Uk was colonised as well by the romans' I know you live in Nigeria and your materials to research are limited, however I will try and give you few pointers if you care to read more of this. I am a flued Engineer by trade and the vast majority of techniques we use today were gotten from ideas of old technologies. for refrence see bellow https://thinkafrica.net/african-writing/ https://atlantablackstar.com/2014/08/08/11-ancient-african-writing-systems-demolish-myth-black-people-illiterate/ https://africanholocaust.net/scriptsofafrica.html Read this, you will be shocked http://www.fafich.ufmg.br/luarnaut/Letter%20Leopold%20II%20to%20Colonial%20Missionaries.pdf https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/guides/zgh9ycw/revision/5
This is what happens when people argue without knowing the scope of argument. You asked what has Christianity brought. I told you Christianity brought the type of formal Education we practice today in Nigeria. This is a statement of fact which you have not been able to disprove. Please, educate yourself on the history of education in Nigeria. I never contested the fact that Africans prior to the coming of the Europeans weren't involved in one kind of discoveries or the other.. But were those Africans Christians or Muslims? They were Africans and at best African traditionalist. If not for the Europeans, we would have continued with our crude way of doing things with no formal education to organise our so called discoveries. So, you see why those points of yours has nothing to do with the argument at hand. Even the Egyptians and Ethiopians you mentioned today have a formal/western type of Education.
And for your information, if not for the coming of the Europeans and their style of Education, Africa would have been less developed as it is today. But this is an argument for another day.
Back to our discussion. Christianity brought formal education to Nigeria. What has Islam brought to Nigeria?
And please, stop dropping links that has nothing to do with how our argument started. I opened the links, read the headings and closed them without reading them.
erico2k2: you mean slave trade? Plz define western education, cos from books in British Museum, by their own account they came with Guns and Bible and Soldiers in the name of HRM. Plz google Ibrahim Njoya
You asked one good thing Christianity brought and since the thread was about something that happened in Nigeria, i assumed you meant one good thing Christianity brought to Nigeria and i told you that Christianity brought western education to Nigeria. If you don't know what western education mean, why should we be having this conversation? Let me assume that you went to primary school, secondary school, and later graduated from a tertiary institution like a university. Or you received Islamic education?
What does Sultan Ibrahim Njoya have to do with this conversation? Was he a Nigerian? Mtcheeeew!
What good thing has Islam brought to Nigeria? Jihad and Terrorism right?
Why are we surprised?? Is it not the same non-chalant attitude he has been using to govern this country? No single trace of a leader in this man. Which is why he can easily blame PDP, Jonathan, and every other person except himself. During his era as military head of state, it was the same thing. He was excellent in taking decisions that involved Islam, his tribe and executions. Anything concerning governance, he lacks ideas. Ask most people who remember his reign as head of state, they will tell you that issues of governance was majorly decided by his second in command, Tunde Idiagbon!
That this is the person we elected twice to be president is unforgivable!
Poloyanabo2: You're the one spitting trash, You think I'm talking without info? Even Ukraine ranks higher than Canada on the global military rankings. Check it out. See where China is on the standings and see where Canada is, If you doubt this ranking then bring yours, but don't just come here to insult someone more enlightened than you are.
Taiwan ranks higher than Canada? Lol. Please, what's your source!
VirileNelly2420: Oh, u just confirmed dat no body own international air space. So, why d grumble?
Maybe China should cry victim as well.
There are professional conducts that are expected of Nations whose airforce are flying over international airspace, especially when other Nations are also flying in the same vicinity at the same time. What China did can cause an air mishap likely resulting in deaths of pilots of both countries.
China can continue Sha. Their Chinko jet will suffer the greatest hit if such collision occurs.
Tekinology: Some countries get mind Sha. Wetin Canadian war planes dey do for Asia loun loun and they are complaining that Chinese planes are coming in contact with them. Why you nor keep your War planes for your house. Ha! International politics is somehow oh. Shey China go fit carry warplanes go park for Mexico come dey tell USA or Canada say please don't come in contact with our jets. Haba. It's not even making sense.
Try dey read something to understand. The Canadian plane was flying over international airspace. No country own an international airspace. Even this China flies their fighter jet over the sea of Japan close to Japan and in international airspace close to other Nations but as long as it is not in any country's airspace, no problem.
shigishege: All in all its a Yoruba man that will still be president. But wait oo, why is it no one, i mean both PDP or APC is even considering any Igbo man to be presidential candidate of thier party?? Take it or leave it. Yemi or Tinubu, Yoruba is good to go. Yoruba la'gba.
If you are truly sincere with yourself, you will know that people are actually against Tinubu becoming president. I'm from the South South. I can vote for Osinbanjo. But for me to vote for Tinubu, I would rather not come out on election day.
If you have any atom of self respect in you, do not go. His wife to be shouldn't be the one inviting you. He probably doesn't see you worth inviting, so respect yourself!
And you shouldn't force him to tell you why he is keeping his distance. He is an adult. If he can't tell you the reason, let him keep it.
