It's a normal practise in cattle grazing

They burn the bush so that new grass can shoot

Cattle loves the new grass
I'll spray that new grass with Gamalin20 so their cattle love it more!

The APC chieftain, who had prior to the primary election which produced Tinubu as APC candidate accused the ruling party of plotting to islamize the country, said in an interview on August 18, 2022 that he was only against the APC because he was in the opposition PDP.

Lmao..
What a hilarious experience you had. grin
Don’t blame granny…she gave you a story to tell. grin

Well,
@ the bolded
It is actually a solid point.
I think most people eat according to their body metabolism.
And also there’s this thing with human nature or psychology,
We tend to get filled up easily when we know there’s always food readily available, what this does to you is that it actually makes you picky (so it’s understandable).
And my apologies about yesterday’s….
I guess your choice was based on your location unlike us here that can swallow garri for breakfast. wink

Good morning..
Gari! Now that I do miss. Who needs Coca Cola when there's two spoons of delicious gari with ice cold water?

Right outside my home in my village there's a family who's always making gari. Specifically there's 10 year old Kubura who'd sit there from morning till late in the evening roasting the cassava in a pan, while her 7 year old brother goes to school and returns singing baa baa black sheep have you any wool.

One day, Kubura was lamenting that her brother can speak English but she can't, so I decided to teach Kubura how to read, which meant I'd roast the cassava while she learns. I lasted less than 5 minutes, as my arm hurt from stirring the gari so it wouldn't burn and my legs burnt from the fire itself, and by the end 10 year old Kubura was consoling crying me who was crying at what Kubura had to put up with.

I paid her schoolfees for the next few years then her mother took her to the farm and I have not heard of her since.

Good morning Kelvin. Please do not apologise. Like granny, you gave me a story to tell and the opportunity to tell it. Besides, see proper insults here where some want to burn me alive.

"Miss when £2 was equivalent to just N600", lol. There was a time when £2 was equal to N1.36k.
Politics › Re: Yorubas Beware! by budaatum: 2:00am On Oct 10, 2022
By your own reasoning, if Peter Obi has a non-Ibo as Finance Minister, all those positions would be filled by non-Ibos that the non-Ibo Finance Minister fills them with. So Peter Obi just needs a non-Ibo as his Finance Minister and we'd be good to go.

I must say though that Nigeria once had a Yoruba Finance Minister, and I wonder if all those positions were filled by Yorubas. And Nigeria currently has a Northerner as Finance Minister and I doubt all those posts are filled by Northerners, though please correct me if I am wrong.
Politics › Re: Reactions As Seun Castigates ASUU For The Lingering Strike by budaatum: 1:32am On Oct 10, 2022
If ASUU did not have reasons to strike ASUU would not strike. And if ASUU strikes without good reason the government should have fired them all by now.

But I guess many like Seun expect those responsible for educating others to not know their rights and fight for them, unlike most Nigerians who are willing to put up with abuse and non-payment of salaries because their skills are of no value elsewhere.

If you all were smart you'd join ASUU to fight for them to provide you with better education, but that would be too much to ask of people who believe they are created from mud and must slave naked in a garden without nourishing themselves with knowledge for fear that it may kill them.

The day will indeed come when you all realise that knowledge does not kill, then will you have more regard for serpents, or rather, ASUU.

ASUU’s key demands

1. Funding for the revitalisation of public universities. The Federal Government, in its agreement entered with the union in 2009 and 2013, agreed to inject a total of N1.3 trillion into public universities in six tranches, starting from 2013. Only N200 billion has been released since 2013.

2. Payment of earned academic allowances (EEA). The Federal Government had in 2019 agreed to pay lecturers EAA, but failed to implement it. The government finally agreed to pay the first tranche of the backlog of allowances in November 2019 and the second instalment by August 2020, but nothing was paid. In 2020, the Federal Government agreed to pay N40 billion. It also said it has released N22.127 billion earned allowances of both academic and non-academic workers of universities to 38 universities.

3. Reconstitution of the FGN/ASUU 2009 Renegotiation Committee. The Federal Government agreed to renegotiate the 2009 agreement to review university’s conditions of service, funding, university autonomy and academic freedom. The conditions of service included a separate salary structure for university lectures to be known as ‘Consolidated University Academic Salary Structure’. Thirteen years later, the government inaugurated a seven-man committee to renegotiate the 2019 agreement, led by Nimi Briggs.

4. Adoption of UTAS. ASUU kicked against the introduction of the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS), and wants the government to accept its own UTAS.

5. Constitution of visitation panels. The union is demanding that the government ought to visit its universities every five years, according to the law, but the last visit was conducted in January 2011. The Nigerian government finally inaugurated 10 panels for 36 universities, six for 25 polytechnics, and five for 21 colleges of education.

6. Proliferation of universities.
The union is calling for the review of the Nigeria Universities Commission (2004) Act to tackle the proliferation of universities.

7. Withheld salaries and non-remittance of check-off dues. These are contained on December 22, 2020 Memorandum of Action. ASUU accused the Federal Government of deducting check-off dues on behalf of the union and refused to remit the same between February and June 2020.

8. Twenty-six percent budgetary allocation to the education sector. In a bid to improve the education sector, the union wants 26 percent of Nigeria’s annual budget to be allocated to education, and half of that allocation to universities.

You talk a lot of rubbish but one thing you can't deny is climate change is and has been decimating places worldwide. It's a fact that can't be changed. Why would you think climate change is not real, are you a human being?
It will deny climate change and you very well know it will!

Food › Re: Make Una Answer Me by budaatum: 10:21pm On Oct 09, 2022
Personally, I don't see why anyone needs to eat until they are full unless they fear they may not get to eat another meal or are just plain greedy. But let me entertain you with a story about a greedy fuq.

We used to go village for the summer holidays. Ma would take us, so we'd stay with her mother, my grandma, instead of at my father's parents who are from the same village. My maternal grandma would tell us not to go my father's parent's house because they will put juju on us, and we must definitely not eat there because the juju would be put in the food. Unfortunately, every Sunday at my father's parent's house, they'd cook yam in drums and pound it for the whole compound to eat, and there'd be palmwine, and the adults would sit eating and drinking and discussing stuff, while maternal grandma would cook onla (dried okro) with eba, so you might imagine where I went after church.

One Sunday, after eating and drinking and being very full at my father's parent's house, I returned to grandma's to find my eba and onla and grandma waiting for me, so I was forced to eat it while she watched, on top on the pounded yam and palmwine I was already full of. Then greedy me and my cousin went to Cicilias the palmwine seller and drunk ourselves silly on top of our being drunk and silly already. I was so full that day that I could not even stand up straight so I crawled, and the pounded yam and the eba and the onla and the palmwine was coming out of my mouth and my nose and my rear end at the same time, and I swear I felt some come out of my ears and my eyes too. That was the day I learnt not to be a greedy fuq.

Food does not have to be filling, is what I have found, and quality matters more than quantity. But I might see it different if I were a bricklayer or a bodybuilder who might need a full belly to get through the whole day.

P.s. I said salad yesterday but never got round to it. Thankfully, after porridge in the morning (made from two spoonfuls of raw), it was salad today. Ingredients were lettuce, tomatoes, mixed beans, olives, spring onions, chia seeds, golden linseed, coconut shavings, hazelnuts slices, tuna and salad cream. And to KELVINXY who accused me of rich yesterday, I plead guilty bar the sarcasm, though I'm certain the entire meal cost less than £2.

There is a lot we can do about it, and it starts by us stating it here. The response I have received from my post alone shows that if I stand up against "those animals" when they are about to commit their barbaric act, some might stand up and support me so they don't burn me too. Or at least so I hope.

frowland:
I don’t think many is against jungle justice or whatever it’s called but the fear of killing an innocent person - Mistaken identity kind of scenario.
In Portharcourt some years ago, a little boy started screaming that his penis was missing. That a man touched him and his penis was missing.
The mob descended on the man not knowing the little boy and his gangs are pickpocketers who disguised immediately they were noticed and caused pandemonium. An innocent man was killed right there and the rest is now history. Be careful what you wish for.
This was a trick usually used to rob people at Oshodi in the day. Gullible men would hold their penis while their pockets are picked.

One really needs to be primitive to believe someone can steal their penis from inside their trousers just by being touched elsewhere. But I guess that's what it means to be primitive.

One bothers because that "primitive negro" might be deprimitised by my bothering, but if that particular "primitive negro" is not deprimitised, some others reading just might be deprimitised.

Christianity Etc › Re: Why I Think What Adam Did Should Not Be Called A "Sin by budaatum: 1:22pm On Oct 09, 2022
Adam did not "reached a point of thought", and neither did Adam "discovered" anything. He stupidly daily walked past the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, ignorantly believing he'd die if he plucked it's fruit and eat. It was Eve who reached a point of thought that moved her from animalistic reasoning, and it was Eve who discovered whatever was discovered.

Adam's sin was his preference for remaining ignorant. And if anyone were placed naked in a Garden of Eden and does not eat the fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, they'd remain ignorant too unless they have an Eve who uses her own senses to save them from their ignorant sin by opening her eyes and your Adam eyes too.

Those who do not eat of the Fruits of the Trees of the Knowledge of Good and Evil would never ever know what Good and Evil is.

This is not about you coming "out one morning and start looking for brand new generator without knowing who stole it"! It's about you suspecting someone stole it and what you do about it!

After you burn the suspect, did you get your "brand new generator" back? And what if your suspicions proved to be wrong once you've now considered the facts and the evidence, and the person you suspected and have burnt turns out to not be the person who stole your "brand new generator"? Would you unburn them and say you are sorry?

Perhaps the below might make you reason. Though I must admit that I doubt it would.


budaatum:
I was at Ketu Busstop some almost 50+ years ago when someone started yelling "ole, ole". Suddenly, some man was grabbed and begun to be beaten. I jumped in, as small as I was, telling everyone it was not true, and eventually, he was let go.

What had really happened and which no one saw was that the person who yelled "ole" was the ole, and only began shouting when his hand was caught in the pocket of the person he accused. And when he shouted ole, the members of the Ketu Busstop Pickpocket Association joined in to protect him.

That man, a teacher, paid my bus fare for that week, but we both had to avoid Ketu busstop for a while and walk to Ojota instead.
