You never answered on when life begins...
My life began when I came out of my mother. She in fact did want to abort me but I from inside her womb informed her that she would die if she dared so she didn't, though I think my father going to the pub instead of the abortion clinic to support her saved her ass.

To reward her for even thinking of it, I gave her severe tears coming out. She lost so much blood that she went into shock and a two week comma.

I hope that's answer enough for you, but if you'd like to go back further, sperm and eggs are alive and living organisms, so you might as well save them too.
Music/Radio › Re: “Ameno”: Almost Three Decades Later, This Song Is Trending In Nigeria by budaatum: 3:22pm On Jun 26, 2021
"[url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ameno_%28song%29?wprov=sfla1]Ameno[/url]" was written by new-age artist Eric Lévi. The lyrics are written in Pseudo-Latin, i.e. sounding like Latin but are in fact deliberately devoid of any exact meaning.[citation needed] The vocals are performed by Guy Protheroe and Harriet Jay. Eric Lévi played keyboards and programmed it, whereas Philippe Manca played lead guitar, bass and drums. The choir rendition is by The English Chamber Choir.

Do you even hear yourself are you senselocked? Buhari already destroyed Nigeria it would take another 60yra to recover from this damage, let it sink inside your gworo eating skull
Buhari did not destroy Nigeria. Only a person born yesterday or a brainless forgetful individual would think he has. You just need to go back a few years on this forum to Jonathan's time to see people saying he, Jonathan, destroyed Nigeria, and those of us who've lived long enough would even tell you how many screamed at Shagari destroying Nigeria.

That said, I don't think it would take 60 years to transform Nigeria, because I know deep down that you are not that useless nor irresponsible to not realise it is you, and my very self, who needs to get off our asses and transform Nigeria. You just need to have faith in your transformational abilities and that which abounds in your heart will become the reality you desire to see with your eyes.

Don't be lazy now, please.

I can see it already. Lol. Nigerians praying for manna from heaven and paying tithes for the priviledge to believe it would soon come!

No thank you, least not until the Church starts teaching "eat the fruits of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil", and works instead of idle faith, and everyone bear the cross of transformation.

Because simply obeying the ten commandments, 8 or so of which are universal to all religions, we Nigerians would transform ourselves and our nation into the great nation it has the potential to become.

It starts with me, folks. And with you too.

Summary! Before some people start claiming the aliens have arrived.

Investigators also found no evidence to suggest the sightings represented either extraterrestrial life or a major technological advancement by a foreign foe, such as China or Russia.

In order to learn the nature and validity of the findings, more research is needed.

"We are conducting further analysis to determine if breakthrough technologies were demonstrated," the preliminary assessment states.

Where you there suffering in '83? Do you think the preceding governments had nothing to do with then as it does now, or you think you can waste years of ₦150 a barrel and things with be better at ₦50?

Buhari has 2 more years and then no more bubu. I'll see who you'd blame then, because, mark my words, Nigeria is not as bad as it would become and you will live long and be healthy enough to see it in Jesus Name Inshallah Amen.

This is the sort of topic that gives justification to redpillers.

You owe the guy bigtime and would need to find a way to pay him back.

I'd suggest you go into business with him instead of marriage. He literally saved you, and unless karma is not a bitch, you'd damn yourself if you turn your back on your messiah.

Nigeriadondie:
Nigerians should hold state governors more accountable than the FG.

No doubt, Buhari has failed miserably, but state governors are the ones responsible for the state of the nation. They receive huge monthly allocations besides revenues they generate, both domestic and foreign loans besides grants, aids or donor yet many have not implemented minimum wage and some even owing the old wage, owe pensioners, they fail to execute projects especially road networks, governors acts as emperors who determine the fate of local government and even deny this important tier of government the much needed funds for grassroot development.

They have large appointees like special assistants, senior special assistants useless ministries that perform duplicative functions, they borrow recklessly leaving the state in debts, loot state treasury when they serve their last tenure.

Nigerians make no mistake Buhari or the Federal government has failed. But we should not overlook the failure of state governors. They are responsible for the problems we face in the country. Remember when palliatives where given by the federal government to the states, what happened to it? Is not that FG didn’t appropriate items for distribution but wicked politicians hoarded to use for next election campaign.

It is for this reason I support parliamentary system of government not this current structure we run. It is for this reason I say that another enemy of the nation and its people besides the governors are the lawmakers who should give us a constitution that determines the framework in which government runs.

Please let’s hold our state governors responsible. Look at the state of most state roads. They are horrible.
We would not listen to you of course because if we listen to you we will need to take responsibility for the conditions we find ourselves in and then would need to realise that only ourselves can save ourselves which would require that we get off our lazy asses and do something about it, but we would rather sit on our asses and blame it all on bubu just as we sit on our asses waiting for manna to fall from heaven.

Soon come, my people. I just hope we do not starve to death while we wait.

Thanks. What I'm trying to find out is. A plot of land worth 2m as at today. Can it ever be sold for 100m let say in the next 30 years
Yes, it can be 100m, if not in 30 years, in a hundred years perhaps, or even in 10 years time. Nigeria's population is growing at a phenomenal rate so we are bound to run out of land sometime soon.

People tend to not realise that we suffer a poverty of land area, which is why we are fighting each other so much. For perspective, Texas land area is 695,662 km² with population of 29m, while Nigeria land area is 923,768 km² with 201m people. Work out people per km² and you'd see how land poor we are, compared. Its like a third more land and like 7 times more people!

Ketu was no man's land in the 80s and bush in the 70s, but go there now and people have taken over everywhere. I remember when Isolo ended at Oke Afa, but now there's Ikotun and a road to LASU! In my days, it was Mile 2 or stay home.

Thanks. Let assume one is available for sell now, how much do you think could be the cost? I will ask further question after this. I'm just trying to figure out something. Thanks
I don't know how much land sells in Ketu now, I'm afraid. I'd expect a few millions though.

Bus from Ketu to Palm Grove was 10kobo in the early 80s, and John Player was 2 for 5kobo. Geisha, I think, was 20kobo, and a box of Uncle Bens was 30kobo. To give you an idea of inflation since then.

Now, which "Nigerians think westerners and people from other countries have horrible character/ personality?"

Have the Nigerians who think "westerners and people from other countries have horrible character/ personality" ever considered that it might be they themselves who might have horrible character/ personality, because you'd have to have horrible character/ personality to think westerners and people from other countries have horrible character/ personality, and I suggest they travel a little instead of making up crap about those they know nothing about!

When Did Your Love For Nigeria Die?
My love for Nigeria can't die. I see Nigerians in the future sometime, like when your children become great grandparents, and the immense potential blows my mind when they look back at this generation and see where they came from and how far they've gotten.

You might not know it, but we are building a very powerful generation such that the entire Africa would consider changing it's name to Nigeria, and my only pity is I would not be around to witness the great fruits the seeds you sow today produce.

But I'm working on my eternal life. God make it be on earth please because I can not seriously be getting my head around an eternal life after death.
