Obviously from the numerous posts I have read here, it is glaring that most Nigerians are in full support of the fine slashed on MTN for defaulting.
I think I will fully comment after conclusion of this issue between NCC and MTN.

Example must be set after all other Nigeria firms like UBA and First Bank were fined too. MTN therefore is not a scapegoat at all

There's hunger in this nation. The Govt only tells us there's no money without telling us ongoing effort so far made to put food on the table despite their much talked about war against corruption and recovered loots.
May God help us in this country. Say change. ....

Is south east too small for a nation?


Just asking.
While you are just asking, I want to inform you that your question shows your poor knowledge in History. South-South have so many Igbos. The Igbo nation is not begging anyone to join us. Wike is an Igbo and he can't deny that and as an Igbo living in PH I will always support him

I am not from Rivers State but with huge interest in Rivers State and I think the FG via the Judiciary is just looking for a way to bring serious Political crisis in the State.
Rivers State is not the only State where there were couple of abnormalities in the election but the people of Rivers State and the Resident of the State will say NO to any Crisis

Uncle, you didn't read this well. I'm not talking about a husband who's not earning up to my salary but a husband who is unwilling to work at all. Do you get it now?
Dearie, I have read your comment and I quote: I won't give a lazy husband who's not ready to work up to half of my salary because he's definitely going to blow it up; once again, however, I still can't see where you mentioned or inferred a husband unwilling to work at all. If your husband is working at all then, he must be earning Salary. In Nigeria today, salaries are often times prerogative of Employers to fix.

Well, based on your explanation I think your comment is rather connotative than denotative. Next time, I suggest you try to break it down in simpler ways for some of us to truly understand. We no go Cambridge ohhh....
On a friendly note, how is your day going and hope you would be willing to share with me if....

It depends tho. I won't give a lazy husband who's not ready to work up to half of my salary because he's definitely going to blow it up.
If your husband is not earning up to half of your salary doesn't necessarily mean he is lazy. We should be mindful of what we say out here. Assuming you get married without a job and while in your husband house God bless you with a job paying five times your husband's salary does that mean you will not be helpful to him with cash considering the fact he was sustaining the family much earlier from that same meager salary?

Ask God for forgiveness concerning your comment above. Despite how merciful He might be God may not give us some opportunity knowing how we would arrogantly claim the glory for such favor. By strength shall no man prevail.
You are appreciated...

"Babalawo" means "witch doctor"...he was talking about a witch doctor, not a herbal doctor.
Prettyboi, the quote was not my intellectual property hence I had to react based on it.
Thanks for educating me on the connotative and denotative usage of the word in context.
That's merit of wazobia.

Still it doesn't mean he should come to senate and say "No Comment" as you suggested.
Agreed, the nation comes first before anything else. But one may also argue how is he going to perform his duties optimally if the live of his family is endangered? Not that I support what he said. To me he is just undiplomatic. There are "politically correct" answer he could have given that would not have raised this much dust. In essence, what I am saying is, I don't support his statement because it give BH some psychological boost, but truth be told, patriotism will be out of the window because 99.9% of us will not be able to function in any ministerial capacity if anything happens to anyone's family (including Buhari and yourself).
I rest my case, at least we have found a common premise in our discussion. "No comment" was an option I gave but read me again and see for yourself other options. However, I think in reality Patriotism would never be out of the window for any nation that wants to build truly democratic and egalitarian society. We can only protect ourselves by protecting the society and that forms the UBUNTU ideology I shared with you earlier.

Thanks for having had such a mature conversation with me devoid of name-callings which seem to have characterized NL lately

It is a ministerial screening for God's sake and you want him to say no comment. Later you still come here and say he is tactically supporting the terrorists. Even though I may not support all his points, the fact is that the man has been frank and candid. And where did you see muslims celebrating BH killing non-muslims?
[b]Thanks for calling it ministerial screening which makes it a national engagement. Are you aware there is something they call patriotism which all Potential Ministers must have? Let's define Patriotism as love of one's country or devotion to the welfare of one's Compatriots or the passion which inspires one to serve one's country. Granted you accept one of the definitions, then for the sake of those assumed Chibok families missing their children, tell me or other NLs if his own family worth being celebrated during national screening above any other family in Nigeria?

Being frank and candid or not does not mean you sell yourself off. His sworn duty would be for the overall interest of Nigeria not his family. It is only when we apply the principle of UBUNTU that this country would be a better place for all the federating Units.
Just in case you forgotten about the ideology of UBUNTU, I oblige to explain it simply as a South African principle focusing on People's allegiances and relations with each other.

I did my NYSC in Bauchi some many years back and I can clearly remember how many times I survived one riot or the other in the north during those days. I can equally remember the "Body Language" (apologies to APC for copyright infringement) of the people each time the crisis is over. The few Islamic elites, I know then, are readily available to term it handiwork of miscreants. Bros, I love north and Muslims so much that I can't afford to disparage the people but let truth be told in spirit of true nationalism.[/b]

sweetgala:
You left out the rest about the falsehood of murder and forced religious conversion in the name of Allah. As he put it is God wanted everyone to be of same religion that being Islam he would do so himself without force.

I think the man is just being very frank , religious scholars who preach against BH have been special targets for them that is why certain mosques have been attacked and scores of Muslims killed because more than army guns and planes the greatest tool against BH are those clerics who denounce their acts and expose their deceitful nature.

[b]BH have killed more moderate Muslims than Christians and that is an undeniable fact.
Sweetgala, I do understand your angle but there is one thing our Leaders should understand about public speech by public officials. It is better you don't answer such question or better still apply the highest level of wisdom in answering it.

What about answer like this: This is a sensitive issue which we may not discuss now. Okay what about No comment... finish. Must he tell us that he wants to protect his familyhuh Those other family killed day in day out nko? These same Moderate Muslims despite how painful the situation is incubated this situation until it went sour like this. What were they encourage those little boys roaming round the streets up north some years back? Poverty might have contributed to where we are now in North East but these same BH boys were celebrated as Almagiris when they were killing non-Muslims at every slightest provocation. Now they have graduated into Monsters, the benefactors-turned-Victims are afraid...

For making this statement, i think this man is not just a sympathizer but also might be in the know of the Boko Haram guys' activities or vice versa.

Hear this and I quote:
“They can claim to be anything,” the ministerial nominee. “They even claim to be a Christian; but if you are Christian and still goes to babalawo (herbalist), you are not really a Christian.

what kind of stupid analogy is thishuh
Who said herbs given by Herbalists cannot be used to cure a christian sickness? I weep for this nation and it's leaders...
