PHIPEX:
Elected??

Yes elected!

Elaborate, and read please.

Seun, is there a reason for this?

Why can't we follow more that 250 people?

One reason amongst many that I wouldn't consider buying this Lexus is that it's being advertised by multiple monickers.

It's like a land advertised by multiple sellers. The risk is you buy from its non-owner!

Seller, do consider!

WilyWily:
But Tinubu didn't won the election,

Yeah, Tinubu is just sitting in the presidential Aso Rock, passing budgets and ruling Nigeria because he "didn't won the election"!

Read the following before you retort with the common usual response please. I will ignore you otherwise.

It's crazy that you people expect Trump to prove or provide evidence he is a pdf but that same expectations were missing when his enemies were in power.

We "people" don't "expect dump to prove or provide evidence he is a pdf". In fact, we actually expect he hide evidence for what he is just as he is doing so the question becomes, what is dump hiding.

My pity is he's not on any more ballots after this term so we can see what voters think, but I'll settle for November. I can't see most electing a party that is backing dump, and I expect his wings to be clipped.

Bahamas95:
Mtcwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

I'd say the same if I were jealous that no one saw your talents and invested in you so you too can achieve what Popular Nigerian chef Hilda Baci has achieved, but since I'm not you, well-done Hilda!

Looks like the Fed can't stop lying, since most believe that importers are so generous that they wouldn't dare increase prices due to tarriffs.

"US firms and consumers continue to bear the bulk of the economic burden of the high tariffs imposed in 2025."

As tariff rates changed and increased last year, exporting countries did not lower the cost of goods in an attempt to ward off any drop in US demand.

Instead, exporters kept their prices the same, passing off the cost of tariffs to any company importing their goods, which in turn responded by increasing the price of those goods to shoppers.

The reaction from exporters in 2025 was essentially the same in 2018, when Trump imposed certain tariffs during his first term in office – the cost of goods for consumers rose, with little other economic impact recorded, the New York Fed said at the time.

Its Thursday findings match research from other recent analyses.

Conspiracy theories bubble will soon burst as you entered the bubble.

So back to the question, why did Biden and Obama's corrupt FBI and DOJ cover up Trump's Pdf doings with Epstein? Why the silence then when they are always leaking left and right?

You'd need to provide me with evidence of your so called "Biden and Obama's corrupt FBI and DOJ cover up Trump's Pdf doings with Epstein" first.

benalvino3:
You guys are the ones making the baseless claim, my point was since baseless claims are treated as truth, and he cared so much about accountability for pdf presidents, where was he when Biden was being accused?

So the question for you budaatum, is why are you jumping on allegations that are coming from 45535 now?

Except the queries about dump-Epstein are not as baseless as you imply, and their baselessness can be shown by the current president telling his own controlled 455 DOJ to release info they seem to be hiding.

But I can wait for the truth since November soon come.

Did anyone really believe dump's Board of Peace would go down well with others even if he starved the UN?

Moneyyman:
Do you see how stupid this sounds?

You are essentially saying that the Muslims (mostly the northern Muslims) won't vote e or Christian VP, especially if he's from the North!!!

That means the decision is not political but driven by religious bigotry!

See how stupid her explanations sounds.

Stupid, maybe, but the fact her husband got elected on a Southern Muslim and Northern Muslim platform does prove she has a point. As for religious bigotry, I'm certain you are describing the majority Nigerians.

It might have been harder for a Tinubu win if he'd chosen a Christian as his running mate, as Northern Muslims might not have voted for him even if that Christian mate were from the North. But I'm certain we'd see the results of various permutations in the future sometime to see how it plays out.

I think it depends what you use AI for. I'm kind of in love with Gemini's presentation, it and copilot can be immersive. Some others can't even read Nairaland at all, but I guess that's because they are built for other purposes.

Who is budaatum on Nairaland?

benalvino3:
His excuse is that Clinton is not the president. So we are asking him where he was when Biden was the president and was accused of sexual misconduct?

Where was he when Biden was being accused of being a PDF without hard evidence like the way he is doing to trump. We all watch how Biden acts around little girls, and we know what we read in that diary. Why did bayelsaowei not use the same energy then?

We were waiting for you to provide us with evidence, and when you didn't as expected we knew you were just making allegations out of your 455.

cococandy:
Yea we should call for Clinton to resign. We should definitely do that today! 🤣🤣

Clinton, resign today please. At once!

There. I've called.

Unlimited22:
I don't even have an issue with voter ID. Even in Nigeria, we have government issued voter cards.


But when you have to get an international passport, which is paid, and not only are you firing people, but you're also stopping public libraries from carrying out passport processing, a long-standing tradition, AND having clauses in your act that will make it very difficult for married women whose names have changed to vote, then there is a problem with your legislation.

It's the shenanigans that most oppose. Good thing is it's incentising people to go get the documents they need to vote this government out in November.

The Japanese Love Their Prime Minister. This Is Huge

You did this all by yourself? It's an awesome ability to keep nurturing.

Please create your own superpower person instead of using bat. It would help you create a brand of your own that would delight you if sustained. On the flip side, using bat might make Marvel come ask you to help with their 'set in Nigeria' production, note.

Again, I'm impressed. Well done Sir!

MockingBird:
I really do like your approach. Getting them off screens is usually almost like a fight many parents are not willing to start or sustain. And when you do, you almost notice withdrawal symptoms similar to addicted drug users going through detox.

Nowadays in church, teens no longer bring paper bibles to church. Its all in their phones. Meanwhile, even though I have a tablet and an iphone with several translations on it, my big KJV bible must follow me to church.

I recall sometime late last year sitting next to a teen (he should be between 15 - 17 year old) in church and dude had an ear piece on and was navigating between Instagram, TikTok and Facebook all through the service and pretending he was following the sermon.
I wanted to report him to his mum but wifey advised me against it. Weeks later, another woman mentioned it during a departmental meeting that all teens and young adults should bring their paper bibles to church and their parents were to enforce it as what she experienced sitting besides one was exactly what I experienced too.

Their mother said her children would behave like she's killing them if she tried what I did, and was pleased to see they did not die when I did it. I taught them to plan their day the day before and bought them diaries so they plan device use and whatever other activities we'd do. They didn't plan food one day and we all starved till I relented at 5pm after we'd spent the entire day doing my plan of detail cleaning my house.

She got an app on their phones and her's she can switch on or off their internet access. She says she now don't need call them twice for a "yes mummy" because they know no device use for at least an hour. And she's structured their day better so everything has its time. Says its working like a treat now, and she doesn't even have to tell them anymore.

"Teach your child the way it will go and it wouldn't depart from it", kind of applies here. But one must not make that way too narrow, or one would stump the child's growth.

Tunaji:
Pls don't abuse Jesus Christ! Unless you're trying to make a point as a great christian.

But as my late mother would say, "agba ujare,unkan l'ajo fo', meaning we are saying the same thing.

Now pls go and chat with other people.

Ai yi tete mu ole, ole n'mu oloko, or did you not abuse your Jesus Christ first? Glad you realise we saying the same thing though.

I am not a great Christian, and I can talk to whomever I want whenever I want wherever I want and say whatever I want to say, do know.

I just read the same content creator nonsense about Tinubu!

Tunaji:
Jesus Christ was hungry most of the time, he went as far as self-actualizing. Sorry to use that extreme example.

Hierarchy of needs just like any academic exercise is just a guide. Rules are made to be broken. And remember there're no rules, only conventions. And the exception proves the rule.

I don't think it's a guide, since no one can tell anyone what it is that they should chase whenever they decide to chase it, or what rules they should break or not.

It's more like an observation made by Maslow than anything else. Many would agree with what you are claiming, that a hungry Jesus was self-actualizing, and even had no means of acquiring a shelter ever.

Tunaji:
In practice, you can achieve one or two and migrate to the next level and much higher.

In practice, one can oscillate in-between the pyramid. Good day!

As said, "a hungry person may still be seeking shelter and sex, since the hierarchy satisfaction may overlap".

IjeBos:
I'm not sure they even understand how inflation works.
They just parrot talking points.

They don't. Fortunately, their pockets and bank accounts know.

raumdeuter:
"They" will be The same body that said inflation is reducing an you are having doubts

I always have doubts about inflation data, but moreso dump's.

Gari soaking was never on my list of foods, as ma would rather we go cut ewedu we grew and make eba with it. Her logic was, the ewedu is the nutrient while the gari was sawdust.

I did get a passion for it one time though, when Aregbe refused to pay salary and I couldn't eat while others starved. I ended up losing a whole 8kg! But that might be because I only took 2 spoonfuls of gari from the woman who roasted it outside my house despite her wanting to give me a kongo. Had to explain to her that it was my replacement for Schweppes Bitter Lemon, ₦50 at the time, and not for hunger alleviation.

raumdeuter:
If they said the sky is falling and inflation is at 90%, You will trust those numbers then

Who is "they" that should be trusted where economic data is concerned? Are you not aware one must check numerous sources to dig through the spin, and even then not trust what you given?

But to be sincere, if dump says I got a million in my account because he just paid it in, I'd worry he stole what I had.

banku:
You are not the only professional student or scholar here. How do you achieve those needs on top of you lack basic needs like food, shelter, sex and maybe communities?

Be real!

The hierarchies of Maslow actual say you wouldn't be aiming to "achieve those (higher) needs" until you would have acquired "the basic needs like food, shelter, sex and maybe communities". Though it is noted that a hungry person may still be seeking shelter and sex, since the hierarchy satisfaction may overlap.

Tunaji:
Maslow might be a real human, but the interpretation in Yoruba-English and sociopolItIcal-speak was what I told you.

Maslow was a real human being, but I confess not having a clue what you mean by 'interpretation in Yoruba-English and sociopolItIcal-speak". Could you explain it to me please?

Tunaji:
On the whole you seem naive if you think fake books don't exist, fake books and sites are plenty on the internet.

I would be naive if I mere thought, but having ordered books on Amazon and received the odd fake one and returned it as "not as described" and gotten my money back, I like to say I know.

benalvino3:
During Biden they were trying to tell us that 9% inflation is good.

So the data was not on his side.

The data has definitely been brought to dump's side, for now, but we both know I'm only saying that because of my untrust in dump.

raumdeuter:
Its the economy stùpǐd"!

Remember how Biden kept saying the economy was great but most didn't feel it in their pockets so voted dump?

I'm so glad however you included the following, because it should make you wonder about next January when the comparison would be with this January.

Math played a role as well – because prices spiked so much in January 2025, this January looked even better by comparison.

Tunaji:
Are you sure those are not AI- or fake books, such are plenty on amazon.

Do you know you can just copy the titles and check for yourself if they are fake books or not?

The books themselves are not available at the site and my post is simply to inform of what he wrote, but if it assuages your fears at all, I read the ones I read long before AI and Amazon existed.
