Politics › Re: Why Are We (nigerians) Like This? by budaatum: 3:04pm On Dec 02, 2024
We are ignorant. And that's why we are bigots and subject to divide and rule. If we weren't ignorant, we'd be like the Chinese who don't care if the cat were black or white so long as it caught mice.

Good thing is this suffering is like rain that falls on everyone's head, so when we all get wet we'd all try to alleviate it together or just suffer more until we learn to elect competence regardless of tribe or religion or gender.

It only takes a vote of no confidence to impeach a president through the national assemby.
Really? It only takes a vote that you claim does not count to "impeach a president through the national assemby" (sic)?

Please tell me how it is not naive to expect majority APC members in the national assembly to vote to impeach an APC president. It will help me understand why turkeys vote for Christmas

You're just been naive as if votes in 2023 presidential election made a difference....
I have stated one evil reason to convince you your voting does not count. Another reason to convince you your vote does not count is it I were an irresponsible fuqer who wants to make you an irresponsible fuqer like me. That way, when we are suffering the consequences of our irresponsibly not voting, we can convince ourselves that the suffering consequence is not our responsibility.

Just know that irresponsible fuqers who don't vote can very not remove Tinubu or anyone else by any means from anywhere. All irresponsible fuqers do is try to convince others to be fuqed like they are and moan about it together.

Responsible people do not only vote, they also do what ever is required to ensure their votes count. Basically, they revolt by voting so they can win and restructure, instead of putting the cart of their votes in front of the horse of restructuring.

Bebigiby1:
As long Tinubu, APC government in control of Nigeria, your votes are useless in the grand scheme of choosing the president....
This is what many have been saying way back since Shagari era, and it is what I'd want you to believe if I want to rig and I win. Because while I convince you to sit on your lazy ass and not bother voting because your vote don't count, all I'd need is a mere 9 million of my voters to vote for me so I win.

Votes are how you voice your democratic opinion, and claiming "votes are useless", is you just saying you yourself are useless, which I hope I don't need to convince you you are not.

They told you your pvc was your power, get it and vote, but you didn't bother and now you are crying that powerless you want to remove Tinubu.

I have no sympathy for you, and hope you learn for next time.

budaatum:
93 million Nigerians were registered to vote at the last election and only 9 million elected our president. 20 million in total voted while the rest sat on their lazy asses at home, and now are crying hungry and impeach.

Sorry, but I call you joker. And I hope you don't joke with your right to vote next time. Because its obvious what not being serious about voting does to lazy fuqs!

Funny this. It's probably why putting my Quran and a tesuba on top of my packing stops me getting too much scrutiny when travelling from Europe. I also place my Bible underneath just in case, but that trick doesn't seem to work on the Christians until I start preaching brimstone and fire.

At least you are seeing what I am seeing Buda doesn't want to see it. It's America's loss not mine. I don't like the idea of politicians lying to people. If the people want lies though then good luck to them because nothing will be done to make things better.
You may not "like the idea of politicians lying to people", but you can not change the fact that the republicans will lie. And it is obvious that the majority of voters bought those lies. But Chinua Achebe taught me that the bird must learn to fly without perching if the hunter starts shooting without missing. Only stupid birds blame the hunter for shooting it better. And republicans have only just begun shooting better, or worse as the case is if we talking of policies.

The current plan to put Bibles in schools, for example, is no different to how almajeris are created in the North of Nigeria, and is no different to how Adam was enslaved by making him believe knowledge will kill him. Underlying their plan is teaching creationism, a la, as it was in the beginning so shall it always remain, and anyone with sense knows that includes rolling history back to some previous state when skin colour determined hierarchical position in society.

I just hope Democrats come up with a better counter, or America will become like Iran who jubilated when the frying pan Shah was deposed only for them to be waking up in an ayatollah fire. Though I can't claim the US-Britain supported Shah didn't deserve it.

I do blame democrats.

Accepting blame makes me responsible and empowers me going forward, while not accepting blame makes one irresponsible and powerless.

The people are indeed responsible for what they voted for. They will at least need to bear whatever befalls them from their choice of dump. Unfortunately, the pain won't fall only on Republican voters.

Biden cannot be mandated by anyone to stick to one term especially when he worked tirelessly to earn a second term and as far as his medical reports were concerned he was in good health.
This is the same mistake Democrats made with the economy. They told the electorate to look at the statistics that show how great the economy was doing, but asked them to ignore how their pockets felt.

No one who saw the dump-Biden debate could possibly not see how frail Biden was. And if they didn't, the hype afterwards was sure to convince he was frail. That's why he stepped down for Kamala. Unfortunately, it was far too late for her to campaign on her own record. She even shied away from Biden's record, for Christ sake, thereby buying into the false narrative that it was better under dump.

No one should have mandated Biden stick to one term. He should have been smart himself to mandate himself to stick to one term after he had accomplished his goal of depriving 45 of 46. He even hinted he might, but that idea seems to have been dumped ages ago.and we are now where we are.

Republicans might not lecture themselves when they lose, but I'm glad Democrats do. Or they'd keep making the same mistakes and eventually end up like the dodo. No, not the sort you fry or bolify but the sort that went extinct.

The Republican party doesn't listen to them either yet they vote Republican. After everything Biden did for them why didn't they vote for him?
Because they listened to dump. I mean, come on. He shouts so loud that they can't miss him.

AmazonTopaz:
Democrats listened to them. Biden's agenda had them in mind. It's high time you all begin to understand that policies don't win elections but bigotry and culture wars do. That's not on the Dems that's on voters. Democrats should just sit back and watch you cannot help a people who don't want to be helped.
They did not feel heard by democrats. But they likely will feel heard by Democrats after they've tasted dump 2.0.

Good one.

But I heard that with a food processor, you don't need to do the kneading by hand. Anyway, I got the machine because I just can't find the time. Plus, a girl I asked if she could be coming over to bake bread for me was saying "Aaaah, oga, neeeeding is veeery hardoo!" I guess she was just trying to negotiate a high fee for herself.
I confess to needing the exercise and being old fashioned and not eating much bread anymore because it made me fat.

I loved my handiwork way too much.

I haven't bought bread in years, like 5 at least.

Flour, yeast, oil, salt, an oven and some kneading muscle, and voila.

Flame333:
World Bank has said it several times that the policies of this administration are not working ....
You are going to need to provide evidence for the above, because simply sticking "World Bank says nigerian policies are not working" in google comes up with the following:

Progress

The World Bank has also noted that Nigeria's reforms are starting to restore macroeconomic stability:

GDP growth: GDP is projected to grow by 3.3% in 2024, rising to an annual average of 3.7% over 2025-2027.

Inflation: Headline inflation is anticipated to fall to 14.3% by 2027.

International competitiveness: Reforms are boosting international competitiveness and increasing the attractiveness of Nigeria for investments.

Fiscal risks: Reforms have started to reduce debt-related fiscal risks.

Nigeria Social Safety Net Program: The World Bank is supporting this program to cushion the effect of reforms on citizens.
Launched by the World Bank today, the Nigeria Development Update Report, titled “Staying the Course: Progress Amid Pressing Challenges,” highlights the need to sustain these policies while addressing structural issues to combat inflation and promote long-term investment, growth, and job creation.

While it is still early, the report says that positive results from these reforms are starting to show at the macroeconomic level. For example, output growth has remained modest overall, but inched higher through mid-2024 as oil sector output has stabilized and activity in some services has been robust. The fiscal position is also improving, with the Federal Government's fiscal deficit narrowing to 4.4% of GDP in the first half of 2024 from 6.2% in the first half of 2023, helping to mitigate debt-related risks. Foreign exchange reserves – a buffer against external shocks – have risen from $32.9 billion at the end of 2023 to more than $38.8 billion by mid-October 2024. However, inflation remains high, and inched up again in September 2024, mainly due to the most recent gasoline price increases and recent floods.

Given these promising results,.......

When those in government tell you that there is something wrong about a proposal, you have no option than to believe them.
You are very funny or you don't know buda.

budaatum:
God gave buda the sort of heart and soul and mind and being that if Moses told buda that buda must stay at the bottom of the mountain with Aaron and Ahibu and the 70 elders while he alone must go up the mountain to see God, buda would tell Moses to go fuq himself. buda is going up the mountain to see God too, and if God don't like it God must burn buda.

And if some God put buda in the Garden of Eden and says don't eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil or buda will surely die. As soon as that God turns its back, buda will pluck the fruit of knowledge and test its spirit to see if it will truly kill buda or not.

That, is how the gods have made buda to be. Not just to believe, but to ask and knock and seek for understanding with all of buda's God given heart and soul and mind and being and time and existence.
Now, you tell me again why buda would have no option but to "believe [what] those in government tell you" when buda has a brain in their head and knows how to use it. You did note I included some benefits of this policy, right? I used my brain to seek it. Well, that and google, to be honest.

Also perhaps explain who to believe between Governor in power Babagana Umara Zulum and president in power Tinubu, since they are asking you to believe opposites.
