pipe dream, in rivers state here is about party not individual,the moment wike decide to support Tinubu in rivers, will be the end of his political relevance.


We don't do cult followership here river state, we are independent thinkers.

Hahahaha.

Voting PDP massively since 1999 (no Matter what) is certainly not independent thinking.

coolxpaul:
In the Catholic Church, renewal of marriage vows is a yearly thing. There's a day reserved for it. I think the Feast of the Holy Family in December or another day in February

Really?

Thought Vows are vows and should be taken for granted as being committed to.

Yello1:
Some of us will wonna renew, while some can't wait to be out already

Hahahah.

Could you put estimated figures to your 'somes'
Some is vague.

Mogajunior:


Divorce no longer carries the stigma it used to. People now go in and come out of marriage like is nothing.

Really? Based on what metric? 'stigma' as a word is a vague metric.

Divorcees are still well marked in the society.
They're pop culture AKA gossip fodder.

MadeInTokyo:
I still wonder how educated people believed for years such cheap propaganda that Atiku own Mikano Generators

Just because of the Press release by the company?

Hahahaha

Salym:
Oh my bad. I get your point. He contradicted himself. Even Atiku saying 90% of northerners are not on social media is false. Liberalism, as it is today, is just western perception of how everyone must behave. If you don't fit into that definition, you are an extremist. Even Nigerian Christians have rejected some of those liberal gibberish that the west is trying so hard to shove down our throats.

I disagree with this.

Liberalism only differs in the west BECAUSE they try to codify behaviours into law often. I.e. they don't just tolerate a certain behaviour/practice BUT they try to have it enshrined in law.

Now to the bolded, Almost no Muslim in Southern Nigeria has been killed for allegedly Blaspheming the Christian Religion.

In Sokoto, 4 months — in a higher institution— in a centre of supposed literacy, a girl was Killed for a petty 'blasphemy' against Islam in broad day light. That's extremism - Not too far from Boko Haram themselves.

My brother that can't be a liberal society . Nothing to do with the west here.

Salym:
Please you shouldn't be making unfounded claims. How would you just equate core northerners to extremism and by what standards do you define extremism?
You should know that Muslims do not just dislike social media but they do dislike immoral and bad actions on social media- which I'm sure you also do. Alot of Islamic activities are been carried out in all the social media sites we commonly used in Nigeria. If they are Haram as you wrongly pointed out, you will never have come across preaching and other religious activities on social media.

Sorry, you misunderstood me.

I use Extreme to mean those who aren't liberal.
I don't mean Boko Haram. Core Northerners aren't liberal that's not even up for debate. I'm talking of people who couldn't even condemn what happened to Deborah 4 months ago.

My use of the word Haram was to object to Reno's point. These days it's hard to escape social media like WhatsApp. It's embedded in our lives.

My point was that Reno was inconsistent: On one hand claiming the North detests social media and then in his last paragraph claiming that they are big on Tiktok.

Salym:
He was wrong there. Northerners detest Ticktock more than they do to Twitter. But a sizeable number of northerners are on Facebook. With regards to watsapp, I do not think Southerners are more than Northerners or the difference would not be much.

Exactly.

All social networks (should) constitute haram to core northerners — extreme adherents.

The problem is that Reno is doing guess work here.
This is not a subjective question though, Facebook, WhatsApp & Tiktok can provide the numbers. But Reno is clearly playing guessing games here.

They stay away from Twitter due to haram tendencies.
But they are big on Tiktok?

What ?

This is a huge irony!

DOTian:
It was Orji Kalu that brought the herders to that Lokpanta. Since they came there, peace has become a luxury. Orji Kalu and Rochas only bring these kinds of things as their own "federal government projects". . This is around the same place they abducted that bishop few weeks ago. Emotions are still high. Obviously, the locals feel that the herders are using the cattle market as a decoy for all sorts of criminal activities. Some are even suggesting that there are plans by the fulani to use that base as some sort of staging grounds for terrorist attacks. Rochas tried to erect this kind of thing in Orlu but folks resisted him. There is also a video going around, suggesting that building structures belonging to igbos there, were all bulldozed down overnight few weeks ago, leaving only the structures erected by herders..

Sad though.

But are Nigerians of any extraction 'brought' to any other part of the country?

Aren't all Nigerians able to live in any other part of Nigeria? Just as Igbos live in the North— particularly in specific areas of each state.

Sowiki:
They were not there to represent CAN. Why not fee them? Everyone must not have the same political opinion

You're right.

But remember that Shettima called them 30 Bishops. IF they were never really Bishops before that day — and till now, don't you think it is a misrepresentation/ impersonation?

I am no orthodox but I mean why not address them as just pastors — although most (apparently) aren't even Pastors.

Please stop Assurances.
Let's have delivery.

Thanks.

Snipespeter:
Misleading headline

Hahaha.

Clickbait!

Hmmm slimy.

Be careful about showing your image at all on a picture if you don't want to be seen though as there a few Image editing reversal apps around nowadays.

AudioMonkey:
Cool.
I can see y'all getting prepared for the Z^th Century.
With Balenciaga's distressed shoes in circulation, bipolar Yeezy in the West supplying his tattered wears and China in Asia working all day, on the zombie virus, World Era Z is almost set.

Well, am I surprised? No sir.
The other time the donkey of a guy was struggling to save his fingers from the Lion, a more surprising thing in the backdrop was onlookers all posed like statue zombies, glued to their phone cameras, busy recording and not in any way showed concern as the guy wrestled with the lion.
Social media era is launching the world into a totally strange era where people are gradually evolving into zombies but everyone don't yet realize everyone is no longer normal.

By year 2080, the world's stupidity by then would be longer than Bet9ja slip.

World stupidity you say yet you enjoy the benefits of a modern connected world right from the comfort of your bedroom.

The ease doesn't even make you realize that most of the niceties modern man takes for granted today were only afforded by kings 200 years ago.

Oh well.

Jaika:
Reread the sentence you're referring to, and you'll understand better. I hope the rest of your day is not affected by whatever bad experience you had this morning.

Without supporting his temperament, you said you didn't like abbreviations BUT went right to using them in your next comments.

Could be one of 2 things.

1.You are not a 'natural test taker' . Yes, there are people like that.

2. You don't prepare/practice well enough. Studying the general topics & corrections for long.

Remedy: whenever you don't have a natural aptitude for an exercise you have to do more work.

I'm not joking do 4 hrs practice daily for the next 3 months— don't miss a day.

Make it 6 hrs a day & 2 to the test date. The questions would come naturally to you because of muscle memory.

Www.Indiabix.com is a good resource.

Don't sulk in failure.

olas24u:
Which truth his he speaking ?he his fighting for interest.labelling bishops criminal as if he his not a criminal as well.

You don't get the point.

Is there any of those '30 Bishops' (including the women) who have been known as a Bishop at least a week before their presence at that event.

Someone at a Bishop level should be known in Nigeria now. Don't you think so?
30 Bishops hardly ever gather at a trivia programme let alone a Vice presidential 'unveiling'.

There's an older comedian known as Elenu.

I don't know if it's a good or bad thing... One mind is telling me they desecrated the altar of God and another is telling me that love is good And God is love.

God isn't erotic love though.

GardenGreen:
I've been paying atleast 15 person's salaries since five years every month. Running into atleast a million a month

Raked my first ten m over ten years back


Currently managing a ten digits enterprise and engaging atleast 10 workforce in one enterprise while I manage another enterprise with 15 workforce


You're not in my league. When it comes to business setup, management, company running and execution. I'm your god

You pay them not as a favour but because they give you the millions!

Let's make a deal. Fire them all for a month let's see if you can make the same Sales volume.

If you do the above, then you're right. Otherwise, again they're valuable and not being helped.

You're certainly not in my league. In fact I should probably stop wasting your time.

GardenGreen:
Yawns. It's easier said. Create jobs and ploy people. Bear the burden of running costs, rising inflation, competitive market, low patronage. You'll understand that running a business isn't for smooth talkers

I am NOT a smooth talker.

Employers like you are great (You grow trade).
I'm in no way diminishing your courage. You guys make things happen.
However, IT IS BECAUSE you can't do it alone Efficiently that you employ others (they too benefit from your job) and both parties smile home.

Quote me anywhere YOU started your business to make profit. NOT to employ employees.

Jeon:
Blacks are racist to themselves and other races,but like to play the victims if the table turn around.

Blacks can't be racist to themselves. Maybe classism or Favouritism but not Racism.
Racism is between races not within them.

Sure, they (Blacks) can be racist to other races though.

GardenGreen:
Oga. Then embrace the regular work ideology. Work from home. Periodt

You embrace no employee. Do it all yourself. Don't 'help' humanity.

GardenGreen:
What's with the laughter.


If such is the case as fixed as your argument. Why can't the employee work from home? After all it should just service for money

Sorry My laugh is because you're being condescending without realising it.

Any job you give someone BECAUSE you're helping him is an [essentially] useless job. AND the fellow knows it. Because Nigeria is a poor Country Most employers like you think a job is being helpful.

When you get a contract from a larger company are they helping you? See an employee as a vendor providing contractual service as a micro vendor and you'll get my point.

And no, I don't support the lady (because I don't have all facts) and I know both employees and employers ARE important. Equally so.

GardenGreen:
All works improves mankind and humanity. That's my point. Anything else is misconstrued.

If owning and running a business were beans, everyone should own a business

If the employee is not providing you with value (Meaning you're not helping him — you need him) You should have done it on your own too.


Hahahaha.

Skankamola:
Stop lying oga, its not any skepticism against western education, they know they would always have their way by virtue of nepotism, a fulani with a third class stands a higher chance of getting a federal job at say nnpc or npa than a yoruba/igbo with with a 2.1. Its systemic colonization. Qed.

Hahahaha.

You don't know what colonization means.
Well, that was my opinion.

Nice chat. Cheers.

GardenGreen:
All job opportunities is a contribution to humanity. Trust me. I'm a serial employer

That's not my point.

My point is that you don't Employ BEFORE starting to think of what your business would be & be paying salary.

You employ after deciding on the business AND you need people to execute specific functions for you. BIG difference.

GardenGreen:
Nairaland deleted my comment which was beneath the post because I said the truth. A truth they hate to hear.

Is it legal for Nairaland to have my comment deleted when I didn't violate any rules of the forum?


Evil employees. Employees from hell. Always running amock to cry falsely on almost everything. If all the men in your genealogy were men enough, you won't be looking for employment. Evil doer. I hate the " Quick Call-out Culture ".

Companies are folding up. Not just nationally, but globally. In their bid to improve humanity, some people do their best in their capacity to provide job opportunities only to be repaid badly by employees from Hell

Post the picture where you stay, let's have a look at that before we comment on this. Low-life shanty squatters always forming posh.


Eyes and minds focused on problems.

I'm 1000% certain that if handed same apartment, I'll get hypo and jik, have the toilet washed and throughly revamped.

I'd get floor cleaning fluid and clean the floors. When dried, I'll get a rug.


I'll fix the bunk, and get a foam. And focus on my job

They say 90% of graduates are unemployeable because they can't think and make decisions. This is a classic example. And you're one yourself. Let her go home and go and continue to sleep. Serious candidates will take the offer

Hahahaha.

No one in the private sector 'goes out of there way to create jobs to help humanity '.
That's a 'convenient' truth which is technically a lie.


A job is a byproduct. Hardly ever an intended aim.

A job IS created (we are talking Private sector between 2 strangers) when 2 people enter into a contract for the supply of a mutually beneficial service.


Hahahaha.
....To help humanity.

paulolee:
na cr7 shocking news i de wait, him fit shock us join Liverpool or even spurs...I don't see him staying with united in Europa

My problem with CR7 fans is that they usually make claims like give CR7 10 sticks and he'll qualify for UCL knockout stages. I thought they were right.

Skankamola:
Why are you making noise here? In the so-called 2018 result how many northerners made top 10? In the past 20 years how many northerner ever made the top 10? They dont make it to the top in academics but when it comes to official appointments they are always at the top, and you say thats a normal pattern?

My point is that IF they've had the best before then the difference between North & South is NOT in ability/aptitude.

Many who read your comments (believe it or not) are not wise enough to know this. They might hold the impression that they are naturally 'duller' than a Southerner. And that's wrong.

As for the reason why they aren't USUALLY in the top lists, it's due to priority, motivation & interests.

They tilt mostly to religion/ culture in motivation/ interests. And they are skeptical about western education as we know it. Because it is heavily influenced by Western religion.
