bemeruca:Here you go with your lies. You know full well we were not arguing he was a communist, which he isn't except in the minds of ignorant people who think socialism is communism. Mamdani is a social democrat. He says so himself. |
It pains me much that we don't reap the potential in the Nigerian football league or sports in general. It shows how unimaginative we are. |
Come on, we Obidients. Stop behaving like we don't know that Saint Lucia is a state in Nigeria! |
Data (centres) need power to run, so this is perhaps why Tinubu is having electricity increased in Nigeria. Unfortunately, we Obidients don't want to acknowledge the uninterrupted electricity we all now enjoy because we are so used to crying NEPA, and don't want to be jubilating agbado! Shame is us, says I. |
grandsuccess:Ogbeni, that your Ogbomoso picture no do. Abeg, post the one of angels walking the streets of heavenly Ogbomoso so we Ogbomosoans can reduce our Aba jealousy. |
bemeruca:If he has the power, you say. When/if he becomes the Mayor of New York, dump will vacate the White House powers for him, and he will rename the USA to the United Communist Socialist States of America, and put chains round your means of production neck and make you work for free and there'll be nought anyone can do about it since he'll have immunity. Vote Zohran Mamdani for President! |
bayelsaowei:You laugh, lol. The owner of that site, Wolf Richter, has actually gone maga since about January, and as far as I'm concerned has lost the objectivity I used to love him for. Prior to that, he banned politics on his site and got a donation of £50 a year off me in appreciation of his deep insight into US economy but I can't justify £1 now. He seems to think huge profits made in the past through price gouging or whatever will make me now feel compassion for my customers, like I was saving that gouge for this dearth, or my shareholders won't mind me decreasing paid out dividends and reduction in share price due to decreased profits. He dreams, I think, and time will surely tell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqB5qtQWi2g |
Objectivist04:I looked for images of my Ogbomoso, and the below is one of the better images I found. I know its because I've already entered the Ogbomoso version of Okene Dili Chukwu to travel out of there and can't just step out and take images of better places in Ogbomoso, but I can see why Aba makes you jealous. Please post images of beautiful Ogbomoso to prove me wrong. Thanks in advance.

I'm imagining a Church of England vicar claiming to perform miracles in UK. They'd be stripped of their robes so fast a miracle wouldn't save them. False advertising is banned in UK. https://www.thirdsector.co.uk/misleading-church-advertisement-banned-advertising-standards-authority/communications/article/940709. |
SeeWahala:Perhaps op posted the wrong images. Those I see here show nice clean streets with people going about their business peacefully. In fact, I am inclined to feel op posted images of the Oxford Street-Tottenham Court Road Junction to make us appreciate Aba more.
|
It would depend. If hubby is a pig and siblings are saints, siblings win hands down, but if hubby is a saint, I love him die, siblings beware! |
I think the thread opener wants us to see the beautiful roads in Aba and how Aba people go about their business peacefully. I'm not admitting my own Ogbomọsọ is worse, note, though it might be, I'm just pointing out that the thread opener might be expressing their jealousy of that beautiful looking Aba. |
kushercain:The judge rightly recognised that the company that hired her was negligent and partly culpable so did not heap all the punishment on her, and in fact the Criminal Prosecution Service should charge the company for manslaughter. Judge Charlotte Welsh said: “Frankly it beggars belief that someone would be allocated an elderly man with dementia as their first client. Being a carer is a very, very difficult job and frankly people don’t appreciate it until they need it. I am convinced that you had not received the sufficient training.” |

bayelsaowei:No, I don't live in US, and yes, the tariffs will be passed on to the American people, and American people will be crying about inflation and the increased cost of living, and America will be great again in some people's dreams, and they'll hopefully tell me about it when they wake up. I just hope I don't see those dreams as the nightmare it seems to be becoming. Vote Dump for third term please, if you do live in US. He should not be deprived of his making America great again. |
America is great again. https://wolfstreet.com/2025/07/01/tariff-cash-is-rolling-in-junes-record-take-spikes-by-20-5-billion-year-over-year/

bemeruca: basilico:Perhaps you should educate yourselves some. https://wapo.st/4lxHBI3 Why should I make excuses for Mamdani being a socialist when I myself promote socialist free school meals?
|
Ibime:If you can share your meal with your classmate, you'd likely ask they be given free school meals in case you are not there to share your meal with your classmate. You after all wouldn't want them to starve when you are not there now, would you. That said, I don't agree with your 98-99%, but I still would advocate for free school meals for the 1-2% who are not already fed. |
basilico:Nice try trying to pass on what you are known for. Let me know when Mamdani seizes you as a means of production and enslaves you to work for free. |
Ibime:Dump is giving free sandwiches to everyone, and three course meals to the rich, lol, and most "Real conservatives" voted for it today. I hear its because they are afraid of him primarying them, but I hope they are primaried by their constituents. |
Ibime:If their parents could feed them we wouldn't be advocating free school meals, and would be arguing for free university education instead, because that would further increase the tax they end up paying and increase gdp too. We wouldn't however pay for them to get degrees in golf course design, since we are paying for their education. We only provide free school meals because we see their kids are malnourished and we don't want them ending up brats. |
bemeruca:Shows how complicated things can be, don't it. If you get pregnant and decide to abort because you can't afford to feed your child or for whatever reason, that's your choice and I support you. If you get pregnant and decide to keep your child despite not being able to afford to feed it, I want society to feed your child because it is not your child's choice to be born by an irresponsible parent. Now, if left to me, you shouldn't even be allowed to fuq if you can't feed a child 3 meals a day, and cloth it and educate it properly, but thankfully, no one made buda God. |
Ibime:The UK government's budget for the financial year 2025/26 is expected to be around £1,335 billion, so 3.5b can not be 4%. But left to me, the UK government will be forced to spend 5%. And that's why I'm not the school meals minister or chancellor. Children whose families receive certain qualifying benefits or have a low household income receive free school meals past Reception, Year 1 and Year 2. The benefits of introducing free school meals have long been proven. Children who eat healthy, free school meals have lower obesity rates, better academic performance and behaviour and improved lifetime productivity.

Jerryhare:Leave him for where? Dude, there's not much entertainment out there, so please let me watch fight. |
Ibime:£2 per week sandwich (I'm certain you mean per day), is not sufficient food for a kid! And, if you feed your child sandwiches every day, it will cost me more providing health care due to their malnutrition. As for deficits, the UK government spends about £1.4 billion a year on free school meals in England, and will spend £59.8 billion on defence in 2025/26. But I'm certain you are against that too, though do correct me if I'm wrong. |
bemeruca:I do not subscribe to his breakdown, and nor am I asking the government to do everything. Or do you not recall you railing against equity for your kids in maths, while I insisted on offering my kids superiority? Equity is insisting your kids sit in lessons I give my kids, or insisting I teach my kids only to the standard rubbish parents achieve with theirs. Or insisting my kids share their caviar with your kids who have only chips and beans, or Ibime's kids getting to fly in private jets rich kids fly in. An extension would be you insisting your kids inherit Bezos wealth, which is what you'd likely claim we are fighting for in your maths is racist logic. As I have said, a means test for a license before you get pregnant. Barring that, we won't let your kids starve because you are a lousy parent. |
bemeruca:Ibime's concern is cost. Children in care cost more than free meals and transport and education combined. We here in UK already provide meals for children at home, and its not from schools. |
bemeruca:Perhaps if you explain Ibime point, we'd not miss it. Go on. Give it a go. |
armyofone:This many fail to note. Nigeria does not provide free meals or even education to children in the North. So they become alimanjeris and disturb you in the South, and the entire Nigeria benefits from the insecurity they provide. Just forcing them to receive free education will increase our gdp and decrease the tax we pay for securing ourselves against them. But Naija people would rather build walls to keep them out of our yard, which is stupid if I'm asked me. |
Ibime:This is where you conflate issues. No one is providing private jet for your children, so you don't want free meals provided to children who need it. It's as if you think free meals equalise, when in fact they make it likely your own children are not disadvantaged by the rumbling stomach of a hungry child in their class. When I was a kid, we'd sit at the dining table to eat, then see this poor woman with her 5 kids coming. Quickly, we'd eat all we can, because soon as ma sees them, she'd stop us eating and then redistribute the food between the 10 of us. Damn did we hate the equity! My siblings and I went on to sponsor that woman's first born to study marine engineering in Ghana, and her second to LASU to become an art teacher. Those kids father was a builder, and a drunk, so you know where his money went. His wife who sold fish, had a permanent black eye until ma intervened. No one is equalising or providing equity. Just, opportunity. |
