Breeding another god-father. Later you turn around and condemn god-fatherism.
PoliticsRe: *breaking News; Obaseki, Disqualified From Contesting Under APC by Ayo25: 3:49pm On Jun 12, 2020
Kikikikiki grin

Edo is not Lagos. Ambode even lasted more than this one.

If god-fatherism brings you to power, you cannot turn around and condemn it when it does not work to your favour.

I am not in support of Oshiomhole or the idea of a god-father but the question is did Obaseki once enjoyed the fruit of god-fatherism or not?

zicoraads:
Most people don't read the news beyond the headlines.

The General wasn't arrested. His passengers were the ones arrested. I trust el-Rufai's Kaduna. The man is a no nonsense man.
But the headline here is clear enough and the headline is part of the story.

If the story does not echo what the sensational headline says is it the fault of the reader?
HealthRe: What's The First Thing You Will Do After The COVID-19 Pandemic? by Ayo25: 4:20pm On May 16, 2020
The point is being made repeatedly that COVID19 will be around for a long while. There is nothing like it being totally over at some point.

So we have to learn to go about our lives while we fight it. You do not have to pause your life and be waiting for the end of the pandemic

How can a person living a miserable life already ever thought of bringing many more people into his own miserable existence?
This act is not just peculiar to the Northerners it is an African thing even though it is rife in Nigeria among the Northerners.

There are people who have sworn never to help anyone again, they are not bad people, they had their reasons.

They had gone through phases of betrayals from people they held tight to their heart. Share your story if you can relate.
If you will not help anyone, you too will not get help na. Nobody has the monopoly of helping others.

10982 is a typo and I have no regrets for it. I insists English Language is hard for you and please get worked up. Go get a comprehensive and exhaustive use of all the use of the word ritual and apply properly to the context here.
Are you one of the not so learned people you mentioned. If you are one, it is not anybody's fault you are not so learned. Ritual as used here is basic English Mr
mansakhalifa:
What is 10982huh

Talking about English, Professor Ayo, don't you think that when you define rituals this way it creates the wrong impression in the minds of the not-so-learnedhuh

Have you considered the mindset of the audience you are trying to reach out to herehuh

You think every bloody person here is a "genius" like you, right?

Have seen the reactions that that very post elicited here? It simply created the wrong impression.

Dude, don't get me worked up. It's a f**king Sunday. Now read the bloody definition below and tell me if what we saw in that post ties into it in any way. I maintain my position, that was a mere drill on survival and nothing more. Give no more bloody lectures henceforth.

ritual
/ˈrɪtʃʊəl/
noun
a religious or solemn ceremony consisting of a series of actions performed according to a prescribed order.
"ancient fertility rituals"


adjective
relating to or done as a religious or solemn rite.
"ritual burial"
Foreign AffairsRe: US & Thai Soldiers Tear Snakes Faces, Drink Their Blood In Bizarre Ritual (Graph by Ayo25: 8:41am On Mar 08, 2020
Mr man English Language is hard for you. Ritual as used here is very correct. The practice has been on since 1982. That sums up the ritual aspect of it.
mansakhalifa:
I don't understand the ritual part. Why dub this a "ritual" when the purpose is clearly stated in the above post. It is a survival tactic. Not a mere ritual.

I have seen thilose pictures like over a million times and read articles on this like a billion times. I even had a video on it on my phone. And in all these materials, it is clearly stated that the idea is to help the trainees cope without water.

So, why are all these ignorant people labelling them as ritualshuh

Let me shock you all: There are parts of Africa where people drink goat blood in order to stay hydrated due to lack of water. I know somebody who went to a remote part of South Sudan and told me clearly that he had no choice but to drink blood from slaughtered goats just because water got scarce.

Many of y'all don't know nothing... simple.

CareerRe: My Heart Felt Message To GRADUATES Teaching In Private Primary/secondary Schoo by Ayo25: 2:42pm On Jul 28, 2019
I ran away fŕom teaching job very very long ago. A job that pays nothing but takes everything away from you.

You cannot dress anyhow to school but at the end of several months, you do not earn what is enough to replace your tattered clothes and worn-out shoes.

I may chose to go to my current place of work in bathroom slippers, nobody challenges me. Yet I earn monthly pay of around 6 figures.

Better to do 'alabaru' at Oyingbo than all these nonsense private school teaching jobs
SportsRe: Knowledge Musona Misses Open Goal Chance From Four Yards (Photos by Ayo25: 8:06pm On Jun 27, 2019
No open goal miss can compete with Aiyegbeni's. The pass was free of any rebound whatsoever on a well cultivated pitch with the keeper away from from goal and few metres between the keeper and crossbar. Yakubu now played the ball in between the little space between the keeper and the crossbar over the bar. That for me is the most unforgivable miss ever grin

Hmmm.... black men, once we lay our hand on any noble ideal, we destroy it. We are just too selfish at heart to be able to practice democracy. Governor will not issue proclamation for the inauguration of the legislature because he wants to have control over the legislature which ought to be independent. He has done that too to guide against being subdued by a seemingly more powerful leviathan. So we have a demonstration of craze rather than democracy.... shame shame
