You really don't get my point. I have watched movies of different people and religious and yes the Bible has more references. That's why I said from random conversations, advice, jokes, comedy, movies, and many more.

I think I do get your point. We are Nigerians, and our religious books are the Bible and the Qur'an, so that is what we quote. If we were Chinese or Indians, we'd quote different books even in random conversations, advice, jokes, comedy, movies, and many more.

Incidentally, our reading of only one book makes us ignorant or at least less informed than those who live by all the books the gods wrote.

Pretty much. Though I rather ride my own bike with no strangers at all.

Stop rushing to do first to comment, read to understand first.

I never said I haven't read any other religious book and also I gave instances to religious scholars of other religions to quoting Bible and not their own religious book.

I quote Bible and Quran because those are the only religious books most Nigerians have read. Most wouldn't understand what is meant if I quoted from the Dhammapada.

Thankfully, the Bible and Quran say pretty much the same thing once you get past the literal to the actual meaning.

I personally supported Buhari because I knew he would create suffering that would make Nigerians learn, but he disappointed me by being democratic and not jailing some people for 200 years.

Hopefully, this current suffering will do the trick of enlightening the ignorant.

I wonder where this was gotten from.

Most scientists would tell you they haven't got a clue instead of lying about what they do not know.

What protection? Would the 2 men abandon their own safety and save the woman in the middle?

Protection is not sharing a bike with 2 other people!

Are u saying paradventure you are in a hurry to an occasion and a bike rider is not on ground...You get to the bus stop and meet a total stranger (female) waiting and a bike comes alone..you as the male would prefer her sitting behind you?

I don't share bikes with other people. I'd rather pay for 2 than share, for my own safety first, and also for my dignity.

And I don't care what males prefer to do so long as they are doing it to themselves.

Since you admit to not having read any other religious books, how can you possibly be certain they have not referenced/quoted books you never read?

Anyway, here's a link to some other religious texts so you can correct your misunderstandings.

I love the way you tell yourself lies.

"Pastor Adebayo and Ko" are daily telling hungry people to not only keep praying but also not to steal from God by not paying tithes, yet you are convinced that "Pastor Adebayo and Ko" are of good intention instead of their own intentions.

If I give you money to keep for me it would be odd of you to tell me to go look for it after you lost it.

150k seems reasonable to me for a start. But not circa 500k they are asking for..
Productivity is another topic entirely. That's just part of the rot in the overall system.

150k is $100. Pitiful, but a reasonable increase from 30k, though those on 30k aren't productive enough for $100 in my opinion.

Government employment will have to be reorganised and staff retrained to increase productivity. Unfortunately, their main job is to generate internal revenue, which is a tax on the general public.

It's alright for unions to push for wage increases, but by how much is the question?

How about $100 a month minimum wage? (How pitiful that is though).

The entire process is a negotiation. Unions say a certain amount, and government states their affordable amount, and after much to and fro a wage increased is agreed.

Personally, I'd check productivity. Most government workers do no work at all, and their pay should be reduced to zero so those who do the work get paid adequately. But Nigeria seems to use government employment as a social benefit, more like unemployment benefit if you asked me.
