You want to give a child living in this Nigeria, with these type of govt U.K training- continue.

To survive in this country, you have to go through Nigeria's own local nurturing not some UK or American training.
Their govts give them all the financial and psychological supports. Here we get nothing.
In the face of pandemic when Uk is giving palliative and reducing taxes, what do we get here?
Power bill increase
VAT increase
Rent stamp increase
Transport increase

where them cum see the sticker to write the amount, you dey act like say you no be Nigerian. this country na thief full am baba.

That sticker is sold in the market.

Sales people write prices on it.

If i want to be funny i can just take a sticker and write 50k on it and paste on the pack. Simple

MyGODdidit:
Check on IG, I watched it there.

I saw the full video on Alibaba's Instagram but heseem to have deleted it

The Social Learning Theory is very clear.

Social learning indeed.

Humans are unpredictable.

Most if our actions are innate.

This picture doesn't prove anything.
Anybody can write 50k on that drug.

Please, let's search carefully before we believe online news

bignero:
That's not the point...
Discipline your child fo his own good, not as a form of entertainment to the world..

We see things differently.
What you see as entertainment others see as a valuable lesson.

Tell me you don't learn anything from movies you watch

Where did he learn such tactics from..... That's the koko question.

Only God knows.

The debate of Nature or Nurture can't be exhausted .

searchng4love:
I do. Extensively. One of the principles embedded is not to put the child into fright. But calmly explain the causes and effects to him.

Who knows whether the parents live in an abusive relationship

Obviously, the child was overreacting because he knew his mother had warned him severally against what he did.
The mother has no power over the child's dramatic reaction.

The mother held back from flogging him when she notice signs of remorse.
At the end, the boy was even giggling cos he knew he overreacted.

searchng4love:
You don't understand child abuse.

You dont understand child discipline.

Well, since the govt has been paying their teachers since, it's only logical that the parents support that effort.
The govt should have however made it half payment.

Same should apply to private schools too- half payment

thanks for the info but no thanks still a gross child abuse

Not in Africa


We are trained to face the bad and good days.

Life is not a bed of roses.
You asked, why the video.

I asked, why not, for prosperity sake. And see where the video got him.
Will not taking it had gotten him there ?

searchng4love:
The boy was in distress. I don't find it funny. The mother's mental health should be critically scrutinized.

The boy saying calm down has a lot of localised meaning....

There are many cuts of the video.

Go to Ali baba Instagram handle and watch the full video.

At the end the boy was actually giggling.

That boy is a good actor

You neglect those at the IDP camp and start taking care of their attackers

Minjim:
Thanks boss. These are what I intend to say. But the knowledge and right words just failed me .
Imagine him saying it's not my place to defend my religion when it's under attack like now.

You did well.
We represent God on earth and need to do a good job defending ( not with violent or propaganda but by the Word) religion and ultimately God.
Endeavour to have firm grasp in your faith so that you are ready to defend when time comes.
If we take care of our religion, God will bless us more. We need to serve our religion, whatever it takes. As there is only one true religion and that is the love of God. — why should not I propagate/defend it?

Kobojunkie:
This was a statement made by Jesus Christ Himself, as to what He was called. He mentioned John and what John was called and then He mentioned Himself as coming eating and drinking(He does not deny the drinking part at all), and how He was labelled a glutton and a drunk for doing more than what John was seen doing.

Now, Jesus Christ, there in His own words, in fact admits to eating and drinking.
Now as to the quantity of what He ate and drank, He definitely did not state that the claim was an exaggeration of sorts.
He did not deny the claim that He ate a lot, nor that He drank a lot. No, He, Jesus Christ, does not deny it in anyway.

Don't attempt to the create a denial on His behalf

Where are you heading to with this exactly?

These are the same people that called Jesus many negative names.

when you fight on the front lines long enough, you get used to taking some beatings. You will be slandered, insulted, and falsely accused.
In the process, you learn that some false charges hurled at you are not worth defending.
When Jesus was a called a Samaritan in John 8:48, he neither confirmed or denied it. Is His silence affirmation that He was of Samaritan descent?
No, Jesus was keenly aware of the fact that those who knew Him needed no denial; and those who hated Him would accept no denial.

When Herod questioned Jesus as the chief priests and scribes accused Him, Jesus was silent (Luke 23:9). Why? Because there are some accusations not worth defending. So when Jesus said instead, “Wisdom is vindicated by her children,” it implies that His followers were well acquainted with his manner of life and would continue to be so through eternity.

Truly reply you is a waste of time because you have a narrative that you are apparently promoting. You're just looking for someone to drag into your cage of deceit.
You don't even have any depth knowledge of the Bible. I don't expect you to understand anything now .

Kobojunkie:
Jesus Christ who made the statement never said the accusation was false.

If you note, he mentioned a truth about John the Baptist and then followed it up with a truth about Himself

But he said it was accurate, right?

First, Jesus’ enemies were not interested in painting an accurate picture of Jesus. They merely wanted to discredit Him and rob Him of His influence.
As a result, He was called many things – a Samaritan (John 8:48), demon-possessed (John 7:20), and a sinner (John 9:24).
If we follow the same logic, does that mean Jesus had just a little bit of sin? Did He have a little bit of demon in Him? Was He at least part Samaritan?
If we can see the utter falsehood in these accusations, why do we assume that the fact they called Him a drunkard means He is?

HedwigesMaduro:
Not that I agree with the guy you replied to, but how does what Jesus said there sound like a parable?

To " wine and dine" is a figurative expression.

The word winebidder was only mentioned by Jesus in Luke 7:35 and Matthew 11: 19

The accusation was falsely brought against Jesus of being "a gluttonous man and a winebibber," because, unlike John, He ate and drank with others.

Take a look at "wine" and " bid" ( to utter) separately, does it refer to being an alcoholic?

I told a fella here they're get them but he didn't believe.

Please, this is no joke.

Let's take serious matters seriously

If the 1985 block buster movie ( Commando) starring Anold Swersnegger were to be a true life movie, the hero of that movie would have been none other than Manolis Bikakis.

Meet Manolis Bikakis a Greek commando and war hero, who in 1974 defended Cyprus against Turkish invasion. He faced 6 Turkish tanks as he fought alone for 4 days, destroying them with his M67, which held up an entire Turkish battalion.

Land mass is not if you don't have the right people living there.

Truly, there is no significant chance in Lagos on the side of majority of the people.
I grew up in the streets of Surulere in the 90s.
From Adesina, Ijesha road, Itire road, Adetola, Akerele, James Robertson, Ogunlana, Shitta, etc.
The roads in the 90s are even better than now.
I don't what they're doing Adesina road for the past years that they've not reconstruct it. What about Ijesha road? From Adesina to Ijesha market. Not to talk of Kilo side.
Tinubu!
Where exactly is Lagos money going to?
How can we call Lagos a Mega City but we have no Metro line ?

Albertone:
If our leaders don't want a change,there is little or nothing we can do.

Are we the ones making decisions for the country?
We voting for a person and they putting another person(rigging) is enough to show our opinion doesn't count.
We complain daily on SARS harassment,poor electricity,insurgency,etc.This shows we want change in this areas but has that stopped it from happening??


Only a good leader can effect a change for others(citizens) to follow suit!

Those leaders were once ordinary citizens like you and I

If they didn't change as ordinary citizens, they can't change as leaders.

Look all the protection he has

Albertone:
Which Nigeria??

Do you know how many people has lost their lives while "making Nigeria to work again"?

The way Nigeria is structured now can't work.

People don't see themselves are Nigerians.

They should let those that want to leave to leave.
Let's see whether leaving will change anything.

What we need is for individuals to change
"Let's change the way we live
...the way we see each other.
Our old aren't working.
It's on us to do what we have to do- to survive."

As with every other things, this govt lacks foresight and empathy.

Oshiomole cannot disqualify you if he doesn't enjoy the majority support of fellow Apc. And also if the law doesn't support it.

This scenario depicts the struggles our parents go through every day to mold us into a better person. Who knows what that boy could have done to warrant the mother to go on the offensive.

However, this boy is too little to be exposed. Posting this video to the general public exudes every shade of wrong in my opinion.

To be exposed in what manner?
We have kid actors and footballers.

This boy has talents and he needs exposure

The one my house is also operating
