You are a big fool, with mental salavwry if you think Wike or Fubara is the saint in this saga. You are amongst the same class of idiots who think APC, PDP or LP is the messiah that will save Nigeria or if you sincerely believe that these Nigerian politicians are saints. The only exceptions are those who are making money from supporting any of these rogue entities I have mentioned up there. |

BenedictAbajue: Okayyy
I'm a Catholic. We have Mass every day of the week. It takes about 2hrs on Sunday and 30 to 45mins on weekdays.
Only Sunday Mass is compulsory. The rest are not but we are advised to attend.
The people I know that attend weekdays are usually people who live close to the church and can make it to the Mass by 6:30am, Or people who just add it to their routine. Make sure the children are prepared for school by 6am. Take them to church by 6:30am, take them to school by 7am... I’m just worried about the kids having to bow to wooden or ceramic statues |

That one is obviously far from you to type that nonsense you wrote which you can’t even defend. They will soon sack you from APC. You and pdp or lp supporters i don’t know who is the dumbest.

Nairaland General › Re: Review Of Prof Mgbeke's Video by BrighterSyde: 9:25am On May 03, 2025*. Modified: 11:19am On May 03, 2025 |
emkz: Extremely brilliant review.
Let us also review your review.
My own thoughts on your review.
Your review reeks of fallacy of ad hominem. Instead of addressing the issues raised, you veered into an attack on the personality of Professor Mgbeke. This strategy mirrors Natasha's strategy from day 1, and speaks of disturbing unintelligence. Instead of addressing the matter of shouting in the senate and behaving like a thug, she brought up an unrelated matter of sexual allegations. When the senate ethics committee sat to hear the matter, Oby Ezekwesili launched a marauding attack on Onyekachi Nwaebonyi which caused the ethics committee to postpone the hearing indefinitely. Whenever Natasha is asked for evidence, she raises her voice. Now, Professor Mgbeke has submitted evidence, and the best Natasha could do was submit links saying Professor Mgbeke is a scammer, was thrown out by her landlord and co. If Professor Mgbeke is indeed a scammer, Natasha contacting her also establishes that fact on Natasha, because "show me who your friends are, and I will tell you who you are".
Finally, your review falls short of academic standards. You reviewed Professor Mgbeke, but did not review what she said. Your strategy is to discredit Professor Mgbeke, so that by so doing, no one would believe what she said. This would automatically prevent you from defending what Professor Mgbeke said against Natasha. If you want to toe that line, Natasha lied in the past against Reno Omokri and deleted all the evidence when Reno exposed her lie. Someone close to her paid Reno compensation to abandon the matter. If Professor Mgbeke is discredited, please can you explain to us why we should believe Natasha, given her antecedents? You are simply brilliant. As much as I hate anything Akpabio and Natasha simply because they are politicians and they are all the same bunch of corrupt elements irrespective of party must say you did a good job on that half baked slowpoke |

Politics › Re: ₦71.2 Out Of ₦100 Billion Disbursed For Student Loan Diverted – ICPC by BrighterSyde: 7:26pm On May 01, 2025 |
yemmit90: Oga, the biggest problems revolves around the masses and not the politicians alone. Will Tinubu and other top leaders split their bodies and be monitoring everything? And yes, he is right, those involves in this act of wickedness might be supporters of Peter Obi who always think he is a saint that can get rid of corruption in this country.
If those billions meant for education, SME, Agriculture, etc has been use judiciously by those in charge, things would've at least change a little. Yes. You are right. I guess that is why the allocation to the National Assembly has risen by over 300% in the last 6 years while minimum wage has remained as low as 30k until recently when it was increased but has not even been implemented in most states. Again you are right. That is why all politicians are defecting to APC. That is why yahaya Bello can steal billions to pay for his children’s future fees. That again is why emefiele can amass over 700 housing units in an estate. And as for the change you talked about imagine what will happen if these useless politicians you are supporting are prevented from stealing trillions in naira. Keep supporting the useless politicians. If truly people fear govt do you think they will steal this much? But they can because all they need is settle someone at the top and the case goes away. You can ask yahaya Bello. Fools everywhere |

Mumus will be happy thinking they are fighting corruption. But they do not know that if truly there is a fight against corruption so many politicians will be in jail. And they cut across all regions and parties.
Typical example? The Okoyas and E-money who committed the same offense.
Or our very own believed Gandollar, Akpabio, Wike and Fubara, Yeye Bello, and virtually all past governors and politicians who have one efcc(another useless tool) case or the other. |

JASONjnr: The concept was a good development and it's a welcome idea as countries you look upto also practice this to enable people from not so well to do homes to send their kids to school without struggling to pay the fees.
The embezzlement is between the institutions and the agency in charge of disbursement of funds. The people involved might be Nigerians supporting Obi or Atiku. As much as I dislike politicians I don’t dislike them as much as supporters who have no brain. Atiku and Obi are far from saints. Same as the Tinubu you are supporting but don’t you think this statement is daft? All these guys you people are supporting are chopping money steady but you who is suffering and paying higher prices for things as common as food still feels your problem is Obi or Atiku? Any idiot in this country knows the problem is politicians as whole but your own level of reasoning is even worse than these idiots…lol… |

How people view this will be based on their mentality and not a deep seated analysis of whether this is right or wrong.
If you are old school and a traditional catholic this will be considered abnormal.
If you are woke this would be just flowing with the vibes.
The rest might just be indifferent.
Same way the renowned APC bishops were a topic back then.
Apc zombies and idiots did not see anything wrong with it because it was from their party. But at the back of their minds they knew that was a monumental disgrace.
Finally if you are not making money from supporting any party or politician and you support them then you indeed are mad.
Again if you think either of Wike or Fubara is the bad person then you need to have your head examined. In Nigeria there are no good politicians except you are benefiting from them in terms of money or position. |

honesttalk21: Hi. How are you doing?
In what way can an appropriate response be given when your originating points are too far from correct?
The assertion that 15 to 20% of the Muslim population consists of radicals lacks backing from reliable research. In fact, most studies show that the overwhelming majority of Muslims reject violence and extremist beliefs.
Could you be kind to also point to the arabic word translated as infidel? I’m good. I trust you are good too. So my approximation of 15 to 20% is from an American senator. It’s on my Facebook page. If you are willing I can sawnd you the link any way we can contact each other. Now beyond that if we assume that only 1% of the Muslim population is radical isn’t that 1% more dangerous to the world than the remaining 99% who are peaceful? Again if that 99% reject violence and extremism beliefs what is the effect of that 99% so far to the millions of lives that have been lost to extremism? Or is it your claim of Muslims being largely peaceful that will save the lives of those killed by extremism? The word infidel is translated from the word kafir. You have seen how I have picked each question you have raised and provided an answer no matter how obvious the answer is. Kindly do the same. Do not avoid the questions I have raised with new issues until you have addressed the questions I have raised. If my points are far from correct then kindly point out the inaccuracies instead of making a generalized statement that my assertions are false. Thank you very much. |

Firebomber: It seems you need to start your research from the base of the reason why the Islam is the fastest growing religion.
1. Islam is the only religion on earth that called for the death of anyone that dump it Don't let the lied to you, ask them the reason why all their Islamic countries have a death penalties for anyone that leave Islam. What's their Islam so afraid of?
2. The only reason Islam is the fastest growing religion is because of high fertility rate They gave birth like rats and pigs just to keeps up with the population and they don't care if the children are been taken care or not. Tell us which sane religion only care about population and not the well-being of the followers 😂
https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2017/04/06/why-muslims-are-the-worlds-fastest-growing-religious-group/
Have you ever asked yourself why is it that any religious attacked is always a Muslim attacking none Muslim religious house. Just this year alone I can show you how many churches have been burnt down by the so called Muslims jihadist but they can never show you just a single mosque that was burnt down by none Muslim. Thank you for this man. Just follow my discussion with him. I’m just trying to make people see why the usual answers they give to the questions I asked are not even tenable. Islam is what it is. A religion that is currently the most violent religion in the world with the agenda to enforce itself in all countries of the world. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Christianity Etc Section And No More Oaths by BrighterSyde: 6:21am On Apr 26, 2025 |
DrRasheed: Please, this sweeping generalization that does not reflect the reality of Muslim communities worldwide. Islam is practiced by over 1.9 billion people from a wide range of cultures, nationalities, and political backgrounds. The vast majority of Muslims live peacefully within the legal and constitutional frameworks of their countries, including secular democracies like the United States, India, and Indonesia.
Also, your idea that Muslims “always want to impose Sharia law” in non-Muslim countries is a distortion of what Sharia actually is. Sharia is a broad ethical and moral framework that primarily governs personal behavior, such as prayer, fasting, charity, and family matters. It is not a singular or uniform legal code, and its interpretation varies widely across cultures and legal systems.
In many Muslim-majority countries, such as Turkey, Tunisia, and Senegal, Sharia is not implemented as state law, and these countries maintain secular governance. Muslims living in the West rarely seek to implement religious law on others and often actively participate in upholding the constitutions and legal systems of their host nations. Examples like Ilhan Omar, Rashida Thlaib both in US Congress.
Your assertion that Muslims force non-Muslims to live under Sharia law once they become the majority is a myth fueled by fear and misinformation. In Islam, coercion in matters of faith is explicitly forbidden. The Quran clearly states, “There is no compulsion in religion” (Quran 2:256), emphasizing freedom of belief and conscience. Where individuals or groups do attempt to impose religion by force, they are acting in contradiction to Islamic teachings and are often motivated by political or ideological agendas rather than genuine religious principles.
You will be surprise if you continue to research Islam. Final question. I must say you have answered very well so far and I have a better understanding. Now my final question is this: it is known that of the total population of Muslims in the world about 15 to 20% are radicals. They are the ones who believe that Islam should be enforced on all populations and go as far as killing or beheading infidels as you people call others. As a Christian who do you think I should be wary of more? The 80% of Muslims who are peaceful or the 20% who are radicals considering the damage this 20% can do to the rest of the world. If you answer this honestly you will see why it is important that no nation that is not originally Islamic should allow Muslims he freedom to do whatever they want to do. You have clearly seen that these radical terrorists do not respect the laws of any nation. Then on the side can I practice Christianity openly in Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan without being beheqded the way Muslims from these countries are allowed to practice Islam in Christian countries like England? Again this will tell you why Islam is a danger to the world and why peace loving Muslims like you are insignificant even though you are the majority. I would appreciate your answers. |

Christianity Etc › Re: Christianity Etc Section And No More Oaths by BrighterSyde: 6:43pm On Apr 25, 2025 |
DrRasheed: Thanks for honest question.
This verse was revealed during a specific time of war between the early Muslim community and the Byzantine Empire. It was not a blanket command to terrorize or harm non-Muslims. Rather, it referred to defensive military campaigns against empires threatening the Muslim state at the time.
Jizya was a tax paid by non-Muslims in the Islamic state in exchange for protection and exemption from military service. Muslims, on the other hand, had to pay zakat (a different form of tax) and were required to serve in the military.
“Let there be no compulsion in religion…” (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:256) This verse makes it explicit that belief is a matter of free choice, not coercion. My brother, like many scriptures (including in the Bible), the Qur’an has verses that deal with war, especially because the early Muslim community faced persecution and war. But these are not blanket orders to fight unbelievers; they are tied to specific political or military contexts. I see. Now what about the fact that Muslims see their religion as more important than the constitution of any country they migrate to? Why do they always want to impose sharia law which Non-religious countries and Christian countries do not permit as it clashes or goes against their own constitution? Why should Muslims always do this when they are in the majority in any place? Why do they always force non-Muslims to be under sharia law once they are the majority in a place? |
Christianity Etc › Re: Christianity Etc Section And No More Oaths by BrighterSyde: 10:20am On Apr 25, 2025 |
DrRasheed: I pray one day, those blindly attacking Muslims and Islam pick up genuine interest and study the religion as westerners do.
Objective mind opens hearts to truth I intend to do just that as it seems to be the fastest growing religion. However can you explain to me what the Quran means by saying you people should fight and terrorize those who do not believe in allah until they are made to willingly pay jizra or what do you call it? |
