Iran I hail thee.

You hail Iran that couldn't get a target in their backyard,

But their Supreme leader wasn't as lucky from thousands miles away.

89green:
You mean tramp na terrorist

I mean Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, Boko Haram, ISWAP, and their likes are terrorists who enjoy killing others but don't want to die.

Kushites:
SO-CALLED ''TERRORISTS'' IN THE MIDDLE EAST ARE FREEDOM FIGHTERS.

TELL YOUR WHITE EUROPEAN INVADERS YOU WORSHIP INCLUDING YOUR WHITE EUROPEAN INVADER NATION ''ISRAEL'' AND THEIR WHITE AMERICAN PUPPETS TO GET OUT OF THE MIDDLE EAST AND RETURN TO WHERE THEY CAME FROM, AND THEY WILL NOT BE ''TERRORISED'' BY ''TERRORISTS''.

Just as Boko Haram, Iswap are freedom fighters?

IPOB that didn't do a 3rd of what the Terrorists in the middle East have done (except exercising their freedom of advocacy for their independent state), where tag terrorists, and their leader sentenced to life.

I don't see why this should be a news, or anyone should worked-up about it.

The conflict means that Iran is always seeking revenge and the America president is a primary target, especially as vageance for their Supreme head who was assassinated by a country thousands miles away.

Ordinarily, security protocols should have demanded that he joined the meeting virtually,

But it takes real guts to be there physically, especially in a neighboring Islamic country with your enemy, whose body language has been inconsistent all through the conflict.

That alone should be worthy of praise, and not shame, especially, being able to leave safely without a scratch (the mode doesn't matter when it comes to security).

I doubt a primary target of America will have the guts to visit Canada, or even Mexico.

89green:
So you don't want to die, but you enjoy killing pple

Just as Terrorists don't want to die, but they enjoy killing others.

Na wa ooo...

Life just dey go like sara.

Natural disasters
Terrorism
Bad government

Imagine having all 3 rolled into one in a single country.

If Earth quakes, or other serious natural disaster join the one wey we dey for this country...

Well, we would have gotten use to it, just as we are now one with Terrorism and bad government.

The more the foot soldiers try to gaslight us online using their taquiya (or whatever is it called),

The more their Imams and clerics exposed them.

It is their grand plan from day one.

But the MM ticket has given them more confidence to say them openly without consequences.

This is what Islam is all about.

It is also the singular reason it is a fertile ground for terrorism.

The book is the problem.
It is what the people learn, they follow.

That region is on the edge of collapse.

Then, they will try to major on the South East and South East.

And you guys better be ready when the time comes.

Ritchiee:
lol
How do you know it is the truth?
Ransom that govt refused to pay for 8 months is what you think that they paid?
Govt is difficult to believe but opposition like Sahara reporters and their likes will always twist narratives with anonymous reporting
A relative said his relative said he heard it from a source...
One can smell the lies and propaganda from a distance.

So, how were they rescued.

If the victims were not released through confrontation, arrest or extermination of the kidnappers,

What agreement was reached to released the victims, they failed to released in 8 months?

How are they sure it was a suicide?

Anyone can stamp a suicide note on their victims.

Some people predicted this day.

All her religious shenanigans was leading to somewhere.

And here we are.

Well, over to the sheeples.

I will never get bored of my house.

I knew the Dress OP will mention, even before I opened the thread.

madridguy:
Another joke from some of jokers

Under fully authoritarian regime yet INEC are conducting elections

INEC is simulating election.

Fixed.

Evaress:
soybean is cheap and an excellent source of good plant protein

Not very excellent, as many would want to believe.

Infact, some health experts warns against its consumption, or minimal consumption at best.
- Allergies.
- Mineral absorption interference, unlike other beans.
- Hormonal disruption.

Ok, I get it.

It was because she didn't make money from it as intended, else she wouldn't have regretted it.

Make I go find you first, to start with

zed7:
Everybody is woke now and preaching healthy eating. The issue is not the carbs, it's the sedentary lifestyle.

Our ancestors ate all carbs and very little protein. Just a few years ago, protein was seen as a food for the rich. Children were given very little protein and they grew up fine.

Our problem now is that we have increased our carbs and reduced movement. The body was built to deal with glucose through movement. Limiting movement is what is causing us problems.

The solution is move more and enjoy your carbs if that's what you can afford.

and if you can't move more, then reduce your carbs.

Technically the same advice.

DrAda:
And yet an AI, widely acknowledged to be better than humans, has highlighted these subtle differences for your consumption

And you don't know that Ai quote and cite human sources.

You think AI knowledge is from thin air. They say what humans train them to say.

They literally searched the internet for official sources, and optimize them for your request...

Regardless, What Ai said was what the OP said.

Beans is more of Carbs than Protein.

The reason why people recommend beans is because of its affordability for low earners, and it's ability to aid daily protein requirements (8g per body weight), but it doesn't come with some necessary micro nutrients like animal protein does (right amount of amino acid).

(Not to mention that our beans are dosed with harmful chemicals for preservation, which also risk our health, as a result, we are forced to over parboil and sieve, before cooking for consumption. This reduces the overall protein level).

Which is one reason animal proteins is best recommended for your complete protein intake, as it is better recognized and absolved by the body than protein from beans.

Unlike what you think, the OP didn't demonized it.

What he simply mean is that, if you must eat beans as your major protein source - you must eat lots of them, and when you per them with carbs diet like rice and cassava produce, the beans should be more...

Ordinarily, beans already has large carb percentage, so pairing it with another high carb food, especially when the quantity of the high carb food is more than the beans, could spike your blood sugar, and stress your insulin level.

DrAda:
In a country with very poor food security, this may be targeted at the wrong audience.

Also, there is quite a bit of misinformation in this post, so I took the liberty of asking ChatGPT to address some of the claims, particularly within the context of our local environment.

1. “Beans is more carbohydrate than protein, therefore it isn't really a healthy source of protein.” — FALSE
A food does not have to contain more protein than carbohydrate to qualify as a good protein source. Beans are widely recognised as an important plant-based protein source. They also provide complex carbohydrates, fibre, folate, iron, potassium and other nutrients.


2. “Beans contains little protein.” — MISLEADING
Cooked beans typically provide about 7–9 g of protein per 100 g, depending on the variety. A normal serving can therefore contribute a meaningful amount of protein to the diet.


3. “Healthy proteins are found in eggs, fish and meats.” — INCORRECT
Eggs, fish and meat are excellent sources of high-quality protein, but healthy protein is not limited to animal protein. Beans, lentils, peas, nuts and seeds are also recognised sources of healthy plant protein.


4. “Rice + beans = carbohydrate + carbohydrate with fibre and little protein.” — MISLEADING
Rice and beans actually make a useful nutritional combination because their proteins complement each other. Legumes are relatively rich in lysine but lower in methionine, while cereals such as rice have the opposite pattern. Eating them together therefore improves the overall amino-acid profile of the meal.


5. “The ratio of beans should be higher than rice.” — THERE IS NO SUCH UNIVERSAL RULE
There is no scientifically established beans-to-rice ratio that everyone should follow. Appropriate portions depend on age, energy requirements, activity level, nutritional status, health conditions and the overall diet.


6. “Rice has a high glycaemic index and digests very fast.” — OVERGENERALISATION
The glycaemic index of rice varies considerably according to the type of rice, processing and method of preparation. Not every type of rice has the same glycaemic index, and eating rice as part of a mixed meal can also alter the glycaemic response.


7. “Garri has a high GI and breaks down carbohydrates very fast.” — OVERSIMPLIFIED
The glycaemic response to garri can vary according to processing, preparation, quantity consumed and what it is eaten with. Glycaemic index should not simply be interpreted as how quickly a food “breaks down carbohydrates.”


8. “Carbohydrates are converted to glucose and can spike blood sugar, so carbohydrate intake should be limited.” — MISLEADING
Conversion of digestible carbohydrate to glucose is normal physiology. Carbohydrates are an important source of energy. What matters is the type and quantity of carbohydrate, portion size, overall dietary pattern and the individual's metabolic health.


9. “Beans doesn't really spike sugar on its own; what you pair it with is the problem.” — NOT QUITE CORRECT
Beans contain carbohydrates and therefore can raise blood glucose. However, because they contain fibre, resistant starch and protein and generally have a low glycaemic index, they tend to produce a slower and more gradual rise in blood glucose than many refined carbohydrate foods.


10. “The best pairing with beans is eggs, fish, meat, plantain, vegetables and fruits.” — NO SINGLE ‘BEST’ PAIRING EXISTS
Beans can form part of many nutritionally balanced meals. Interestingly, plantain is also predominantly a carbohydrate food, so recommending beans with plantain while describing beans with rice as “carbohydrate + carbohydrate” is inconsistent.



Most importantly in the Nigerian context

In a country where food insecurity and affordability of animal-source foods are significant concerns, describing beans as containing “little protein” or suggesting that only eggs, fish and meat provide “healthy protein” is particularly problematic. Beans are an affordable, culturally acceptable and valuable source of plant protein, in addition to providing fibre, complex carbohydrates and important micronutrients.

The appropriate public-health message should therefore be dietary diversity, appropriate portions and balanced meals—not that beans are “not really a healthy source of protein.”

Can't see the difference from what he said.

koxyz:
The koko to most of these foods is to understand the principle of portion control and practice it accordingly.

True...

But that is even the hardest because of the pleasure of food.

frugal:
Nonsense. Pairing rice and beans make complete protein. We've known this since first grade. And as an adult and fitness enthusiast I've confirmed this personally.

I didn't bother to read the rest of the drivel.

He didn't demonize it. But the right proportion.

Besides, as you claim, you are body builder,

So, your excess sugar is used up in the gym.

You can't say the same for people who largely sedentary.

Thanks for the lesson.

But major issue why people consume more carbs is due to standard of living.

Carb is cheaper and what most can afford.

Many people know the right food to eat,
They know what is good for them.

But lack the ability to afford them in the right quantity.

aswani:
Stopping kids going to school on a Monday, by inflicting corporal punishment on those that were caught in uniform, , whereas his own child was dutifuly heading to school on a Monday in Finland.

That wasn't agitation, that was ridiculous and I am being careful with my words.

He would be a tyrant like the kind of Idi Amin, if the South East was to be a Country and he (Ekpa) their head.

You can't be murdering your own people in the name of getting back at the federal government.

It doesn't just make a sense at all.

This is a very dumb take.

Actually the dumbest in this new month.

Lifestone:
Last time I checked, there still over 200million living in Nigeria.

And how does that invalidates his point?

Even Ukraine and Ghaza that are getting bombed almost on a daily basis, still have people residing in them.

And the OP see nothing wrong with this because it aligns with his interest

Damn!

A finish people and a finish country.

And the zuuubies don't even realize that this is dent on Tinubu government...

cenaman:
Face your hunger and leave the roads alone.

Seems you are one of the thugs or touts who battered him for revealing the incompetence of your government to the whole world.

Ona just too usless for this country

But his god couldn't kill the herders murdering his people on a daily bases, enmass.

His god must have his priorities wrong.

When a god is more interested in a crook winning election, than the lives of a people getting genocided by the body language of the same crook,

Then you know we are in serious trouble.

Attacking his own people was the undoing of this Ekpa.

You can't be faraway and be inciting violence on your own people.

Ones you thread that path, you immediately turn your own people against you, like the Iran case.

Bro went about the agitation in a very wrong way.

Modified

Modified.

Making my space here

I am more interested in the collaborator.

Will wait for now.

Even though I know it will yield any result at the end.

MightySparrow:
I am forced to think that Nigeria herself may be fake.

It is of course.

It was a forced amalgamation for control by Britain.

And it is obvious, it is the reason it is not working, and it will never work.
