The Nairaland user Mariangeles created that specific thread—titled "Ask ChatGPT A Question, And Post The Response Here"—for a few very strategic, forum-driven reasons: [1]

SixSeven, posting your "Ask ChatGPT A Question" will let us better understand your "Post The Response Here", please.

imsoftcash:
Not asking you to learn or lean on him or anyone, Just saying Truth is no longer xxxxxxxxx in today world

Truth is truth, I say, and lies are lies. As for Tate, I'd rather learn nothing from him and I definitely would not lean on him either.

Hungrychicken:
Sorry brotherly.

Nothing sorry about it. Such was life then.

Mariangeles:
If you were living in Nigeria now, I would've asked you if times were better now compared to then or not.

I told someone that as much as times are difficult presently, I believe there are more opportunities now with technology, than before.

I do have people living in Nigeria for whom times are better now than they were before, and I have people who live in Nigeria now who are doing worse.

Wherever I live I am certain to be able to feed myself from the sweat of my brow. And I believe there would indeed be more opportunities in Nigeria now for those who would take advantage of them while the lazy would always moan wherever they may be.

Wealthyonos:
Women with their confusing nature

Perhaps she's not confused at all, and plans to take the food home to feed her family that her husband might not be feeding.

Tenrack:
Baba stop to dey make yourself look like you no get self respect. She's clearly not entertaining your BS. No dey make men appear like desperate fools na.

Thank you very much for educating him.

Please know that he does not represent all men. Not all men are like him.

Tenrack:
smh. I hope he learns to respect himself now.

Now, is too hopeful. I expect to extend my patience towards him for the next 10 years, if I live that long.

And note. He is not a woman.

Kanwulia:
You are entitled to your reality. How many women do you have in government or key positions in traditional settings?

Good luck to you all.

I’d rather go and settle in Burkina Faso with progressive youth leaders and without “Sharia Christians”!🌹

You Nigerian men have a great deal to learn, but we will teach you someday.

We are all entitled to our own reality. That's what self responsibility is all about. And if your reality is in Burkina Faso, you are indeed welcome to it.

Kanwulia:
Very happy you are comfortable in your Nigerian circumstances. It is a man’s world in Nigeria, so I can never accept such conditions. That is what it really means to be a Nigerian. Ever willing to settle for the most dismal conditions of human existence.🌹

You are insinuating that I am "Ever willing to settle for the most dismal conditions of human existence". And you are doing so to justify your own reasoning. While I am showing you how resilient I am in face of difficulty.

I am exactly the opposite of what you think. I do not wait for a government to improve my condition because improving my condition is my own responsibility. Nigeria will continue to be a place that some moan about until we all take responsibility and change it.

And for your information, women are gradually taking over even in Nigeria, albeit slowly. Even you can hear the men crying, I bet.

Kanwulia:
Even the average UK citizen is living with the same stress. In Nigeria, you have no BASIC
social amenities or support from the government, police, judiciary or military.

Try telling a UK citizen to live in NigerIa without electricity or water for 1 week!😃 Wven the prison life is better.😁

With basic amenities in foreign countries, thr average Nigerian simply maximizes the potential where the average citizens of the UK take them for granted.✅

When the Nigerian finally settles down, he or she becomes like the average citizen of foreign countries living from paycheck to paychecks. That is the reality.

I am a UK citizen, and I comfortably live in Nigeria without light and water when I am there. When light goes and people around me cry "Nepa" I ask them if they were not expecting the light that has always been going to go.

That said, UK is far much better than Nigeria, though life in UK used to be "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short" according to Thomas Hobbes. The British people learnt that they were responsible for the conditions they live under and changed it to benefit themselves, as we will one day do too.

Hungrychicken:
No be now again. The conditions then and now are not the same again, things brutal this time around. Either you are rich or poor, no in between again.

The conditions were very brutal for me then.

Ma would give me ₦1 a week from 80 to 84. Transport to and from school was 20 kobo a day. Breakfast was ogi. Hunger would make me walk the 5 miles in the hot sun, and I'd be punished if I got home after 3pm.

I guess we were poor.

Hungrychicken:
Gemini btw***

Nigeria politicians don spoil my mood this evening. I just realized how destroyed the country is🫩

I saw a video of a man sending 3k naira to his faraway child to take hold body for the month, until when another money come.

I just weak 🫩

Funny this. Ma would send me off to uni with ₦5 for the week. Transport come and go was ₦9. Rent was ₦20 a month. Year was 1985.

Kanwulia:
You are allowed to grow naturally in other countries without stress.🍷

This bit? I wish it were true.

There is a lot of stress in UK where I live, is what many would tell you, and the hardship some experienced in Nigeria fortifies some to cope.

Please note I said the hardship is beneficial to me, and it is not my sole duty to build any country since I'm not some superbeing or god.

budaatum:
First, I do not believe all that the current government is doing is building palaces.

The above is my response to your necessitated question.

Note that I am disagreeing with your assertion about what you presume I believe. And I also disagree that they are using the money saved for "the budgeting for palaces and given millions to state governors to switch party".

And even if they are and you dislike it, as you said, it's democracy. Wait till the next election and change them.

Dijita:
I think you are changing the line of the discussion. I never said all they do is building palaces. ruling with 10 million votes or 1 million votes is not part of our discussion that is a diversion from our subject. It is a democracy, you accept the good, the bad and the ugly. USA one of the beacon of modern democracies have elected leaders with less votes than their opponents. INEC the electoral umpire declare him the winner and the supreme court affirm their decision. until the next election, their is no way he can be removed peacefully without chaos.

Going back to our line of discussion, This is the part of your initial submission that I question:


Here is my post to the above:
. Take note i didn't say you were wrong. It is a thought provoking question.

This is your response:


Which necessitate my question below:

Did you seriously ask us to learn from this Tate?

If so, I strongly suggest you go and learn what truth is!

Please let me know if you mean a different Tate.

Dijita:
You believe the building of palaces for the privileged few and squandaring government funds on intra party affairs while the masses are suffering is beneficial to the society at large?

First, I do not believe all that the current government is doing is building palaces. Second, I've told you what they do that I consider to be good for Nigeria.

If Nigerians feel their government is building palaces while the masses are suffering, then they should get off their asses and elect a better government instead of letting Tinubu rule with less than 10 million votes.

Dijita:
How is that helping the common man when the benefit is been spent extravagantly to put it delicately e.g the budgeting for palaces and given millions to state governors to switch party? I am not an obedient just an unbiased observer

Nigeria is not just made up of "common man", and nor do all solutions solve every man's problem. Some solutions in fact, create hardship for some, though they might be good for society in general.

Kukutente23:
Read

Thank you tons for the education. It is appreciated.

It would seem to be that it may have come into force much later however, as my school remained under missionary control till about 1980, when we got our first non-baptist principal.

The below is to confirm what you said, though it was Decree 41, a minor error since I was more wrong in the end thinking it was Jakande.

It's like you read my mind, though my AI was Gemini.

Mine is a question I use to test the veracity of any AI.

Is budaatum of Nairaland male or female?

Kukutente23:
Decree 47 of 1977

Forgive me, but I am very not familiar with Decree 47 of 1977, and wonder if you don't mean a different decree, which did not particularly concern schools, since the missionaries were indigenous by 1977.

Can you kindly provide references please, so that I can be properly educated? Thank you in advance.

Goosethetruth:
Buda,
You are cracking me up.
Burning your acclaimed creation in an incinerator for eternity does not portray any spirit of forgiveness in my humble opinion.😀

I am so glad I am cracking you up, and I agree with your humble opinion.

Jesus who told Peter to forgive someone seventy times seven times would very likely not be burning his father's creation in an incinerator for eternity for fewer sins than that. Thankfully, brimstone and fire God handed authority to meek and gentle and forgiving Jesus whom I guess will get to decide.

Truthseeker10:
Apart from the Bible, what other book told you that holy spirit is your brain? If you can't provide the other book in your next response, you would receive a BLOCK from me.

You can block me all you want, it would not take food off my table or out of my mouth.

Read this post slowly perhaps, so you don't again miss the answer to your question.

And while you do so, perhaps have the decency to answer my own one question which you are choosing to ignore while requesting answers to your questions as if I owe you answers!

Tell me what you know about hermeneutics!

joseph1832:
Sorry to disappoint you, my mind hasn't grown. Like the mind can grow overnight, eh.. Hehehehe

Please engage with me in six months time so I can reassess your mind to see if it has grown or not.

Please know that I am not in the least disappointed. I'm just observing and charting and monitoring your progress to study mind growth and development in general.

Also know that "the mind can grow overnight". You simply need to delete the bad software and install better software in your mind overnight. But I am not charting your mind growth overnight. I'm monitoring you every six months or so.

Kukutente23:
You recalled lies
It was OBJ who took schools from missionary not Gowon..
All the narrative you spilled only happened in your head

Was it?

My school in Lagos was taken from missionaries by Jakande in 1979 when Shagari was president. Awolowo's Unity Party of Nigeria had it as a policy in all the states they ran.

And if I am correct, I don't think you lied. You or I just happen to be misinformed, and can easily educate ourselves.

wallarwallar:
I love people who appreciate the truth regardless. You love what he has done, but that doesn't change the fact you want obi as president. Nice one, some will overlook it to avoid given credit to those who deserves it at a point in time.

It's my nature to "appreciate the truth regardless". And I appreciate you much for noticing and commenting on it.

For instance, I am an atheist who does not merely believe that Gods do not exist, but one who [u]knows[/i] that Gods are created by human beings. Still, the Bible and the Quran should be read by all Nigerians who do not wish to be ignorant. We just should not just believe it, but seek to understand it to build heaven in our Nigeria.

I must tell you the truth, I'm Obidiently becoming a Tinubuan, and should go find out what I should call myself if I do. Some of his policies (fuel subsidy, Naira floatation, review of NYSC), may have created hardship, but they are very necessary if we are to progress.

Truthseeker10:
But you claimed that no particular book told you that Holy Spirit is your brain. So how come you are ending up with the bible?

And I repeat, no particular book told me that Holy Spirit is my mind. And that I deduced it from reading very many books that developed my own mind to arrive at that conclusion.

Do you know anything about hermeneutics?

RealLordZeus:
The judgement is biased, how can the prosecutor made this statement based on one reported incident
The CCTV supported the witness, but being a one time offender, 2 year jails time get as e be

It's more like the first time his offence was reported or where there was enough cctv evidence.

We do not take such behaviour lightly here, and you better see this as warning instead of your "get as e be".

TenQ:
The problem is that most governors that are Muslims take it as jihad to take away Christian founded schools by every means possible. Kwara state is an example. Kaduna state even renamed all the schools that it had no semblance of being founded by Christians.

This is the problem!

Sorry, but I do not accept that "The problem is that most governors that are Muslims take it as jihad to take away Christian founded schools by every means possible".

First, Christians ought to be much more powerful and stronger than to let themselves be overcome. Second is that Muslim schools are also not being funded, which would be stupid in my own Osun State where Muslims know the importance of education. And third is that some states that are predominantly Christian also hire inadequate and inexperienced corpers instead of retaining trained teachers.

My fourth is more a warning, and it is that letting oneself be pitted as Muslims against Christians is a sign of lack of education and learning and those in that trap are insufficiently intelligent, while those propagating it are evil or just don't know what they do.

We, are the problem, if anything, for not creating what we should have.

joseph1832:
Not really. You can still go in the tub with a bikini, but yours is special, going in naked to the bone.

It's my bath tub in the privacy of my own home, so why would I hide parts of me with a bikini?

Should I also wear a bikini when I shower?

P.s. Do know that I am only engaging with you to see if your mind has grown since the last time. You are warned.

joseph1832:
Of course, this is so you. Then you go in the bathtub, naked to the bone, eh.

Is one supposed to go in the bathtub with one's clothes on?

anonimi:
So what do you expect the governors to do with the taxes raised from you and on your behalf, along with the 27% federation account shared among the 36 governors, without forgetting the loans that will be repaid?

How do we get out of being the leader in out of school children if governments fail to educate children

To be sincere with you, they can go do whatever they want with it as far as I care, as currently they do fail to educate our children with the money they say they currently spend.

Most schools in my Osun State are staffed by corpers the state does not pay and who don't know how to teach. Missionary schools would at least hire proper teachers and pay them better.
