I am in the woman camp, and I fully endorse the post below and posts of Stephen0mozzy above.

Stephen0mozzy:
Bros it's deep o.
The only reason she's trying to ask for a relationship now is because the other guy jilted her, and she's tryna "emotionally blackmail" the guy into taking baggage that he never gathered.

Ask yourself, if the corper stayed, if the corper was the son of a Minister, and she was in the city again, will she ask for the relationship to continue with "your cousin"?
The below is to support the team.

Here is 'feminism' at war.

Feminists are the leaders of promoting misogyny. I am not talking about the feminism that brought about women's rights to vote and many good things; it is different from modern-day feminism.
You men said the same things about "feminism that brought about women's rights to vote and many good things" that you are now saying about "modern-day feminism".

This is true.
Social media is one big megaphone for their degenerate ideas.

Yes, it is true. The misogyny that was destroyed by feminism could not have been allowed to continue as it was considering the strength women discovered they have when social media gave us all voices.

I'm often amused at those complaining about migrants invading UK when the truth is UK is begging migrants to please come.

A prime minister might be diplomatic

You may call him Tony, he might decide to hear you or not. He might speak with you or not

There is a difference between calling him Tony and speaking with him on first name terms
It was actually in a similar situation where Tony was being asked questions and many called him Tony. And I actually think it was planned to be so since many asking questions read them from the same sort of card which made me wonder the organisers had helped edit since they were all pre-chosen. That makes it not exactly similar, and as you said, "this is Africa".

Will she call her father by his first name?

This is Africa its just like your student calling you by name even if you are mates.
This is indeed, Africa. She more appropriately should have called him Mr Elumelu. And he is correct to have corrected her. And people will form opinions about the incident like Sowore and us are doing, and "the debate has gone beyond Sowore’s criticism, with Nigerians divided over respect, workplace culture, age, status and whether the young woman crossed a line by using Elumelu’s first name."

Politics › Re: Elon Musk Advises Europe To Emulate Tinubu-led Nigeria by budaatum: 12:28pm On Aug 21
seunmsg:
Everything should not be about attacking the president. This is about comparing birth rates in Nigeria with Europe. You don't have to develop a heart attack anything you see a positive news attached to Tinubu's name. This is Saturday morning, warm eba, watch movies or football and find a girl to knack.
What is positive about a high birthrate in a nation crying about poverty?

Incidentally, I went digging and found the absurdly ridiculous.

Raising a child in the UK from birth to age 18 costs approximately £259,028 for a couple and £290,807 for a lone parent, according to research from the Child Poverty Action Group (CPAG). These figures include a basic standard of living plus major expenses like housing and formal childcare. Without formal childcare, the basic cost drops to roughly £165,872 for couples and £186,822 for single parents.

The total estimated cost to raise and educate a child from birth through university in Nigeria ranges from ₦5 million to over ₦65 million (£2,715.48 to £35,301.16).


I don't know where such ridiculous figures come from and I wouldn't vouch for their validity, since a child raised on ₦65 million would likely starve and most likely not be educated, but the disparity in countries is significant such that more children would be born in Nigeria where it is relatively cheaper than Europe where baby having is for the rich and the very poor who can rely on the government to feed their children.

Me think you should have listed what Nigerian's have benefitted both in the immediate and future term.
In the immediate term, Nigerians are needing to learn to sweat in order to eat, and in the long term we shall eat more.

I am suggesting that we Nigerians are not as productive as some because we do not seek enough and have quite a lot more knowledge out there that we don't yet know than we know, and learning to sweat for our daily bread will teach us to work harder and acquire more knowledgeable and make better decisions (please see Osun State), and Nigeria will be great indeed.

Tony overreacted. And worse, showed his nature thinking he is above others, which he is in this instant, but doesn't need to brand about

My own bias must however be noted, I can call King Charles, Charlie, and he wouldn't complain despite being more than a decade older than me and wearing a crown.

Look. At this unserious human lying to himself again 😂😂

From gemini response - Why it's true: A review of his posting history shows that sexual offense discussions were never an independent interest of his; they only emerged in his posts as political arguments when relevant to high-profile political figures and debate cycles involving Donald Trump.
Dump is the most prominent sexual offender discussed in the entire world and bayelsaowei talks about dump quite a lot, so I wouldn't quite expect it to be otherwise since he has not got the sort of obsession you have with gays, for instance.

Very lazy.

Do you think google AI can send crawlers to crawl through Nairaland database from now till 2018, thousands of pages without it being blocked by Nairaland?

Do you know how these things work?

Search bayelsaowei along with the keywords let's see what comes up.
Don't you think it even much lazier to ask me to "Search bayelsaowei along with the keywords let's see what comes up" instead of you searching bayelsaowei along with the keywords and showing us what you find?

As to your, "think google AI can send crawlers to crawl through Nairaland database", that's Nairalands core income generator! It would be Zeroland if Google didn't.

The US Treasury debt reached fabulous and much-anticipated $40 trillion today, after having ballooned by $1 trillion in three months, and by $3 trillion in 12 months, as tax cuts, profligate spending, the war in Iran, and the Supreme-court-triggered tariff refunds sped up the process.

It is not sustainable but giving governors 250 billion to join apc is sustainable. And going to osun state with over 100 billion to rig election is sustainable. What is the 79% poverty and hunger Nigerians benefits from the money saved from removing subsidy
I supported it but baron and his apc thieves are only looting the savings from it.So let it ne returned so the all Nigerians will enjoy it.
You saved something from somewhere to loot it by few and u want us to continue to support the policy. Are we unwise or what
Basically, your own state governor is spending the money given to him to develop your state to rig elections in Osun State and you are blaming those who gave your state's money to your governor?

We in Osun State thank you for not holding your state's governor to account such that he is spending your own state money in our state. Please note that we took your state's money from your state's governor and still voted for our own governor because he spends our own state's money in our state.

Calling statutory allocations political bribes can only come from the figments of the imagination of an atikulated mind.
So well put. A mind that sees no good where good is.

Can't help see how Atiku made the current government articulate more though, which I appreciate.

And vote Obi. Though I can't see him doing better than Tinubu, who still has to use his abilities to show us NNPC's books.

Go and rest bros.
Israelis of today are not native to the "land of Israel", nor are the Israelis of today the Israelites of the old, considering they import Europeans to make numbers up! But that's besides my point. I can't accept some people kicking me out of my house and claiming my land that was passed down to me by my great great great grandather. The decent thing is to ask to buy it, and if I say no, you walk away, but what Israel is hounding people out of their homes expecting they'll just walk away defeated, which the Palestinians are not doing.

Nigeria did that to the Igbos after the Civil War, by not returning their properties and paying 10% of what they had in banks, and I think it's a shame on Nigeria and a hurt that will pain for decades, as it's already doing.
