Are you aware that vegetable oil defiles your body too by building up cholesterol?

Are you aware that fizzy drinks (soft drinks) defile your body too by increasing your sugar level?

Are you aware that eba defiles your body too by building up extra carbs in your system?

Do you wana lump al of the above into your list of sins too?

I can argue that at least everything you listed above is a form a sustenance. Our body needs food, it doesn't need to smoke. Those things that you listed are not 100% bad for you if you eat it in moderation. It is a sin if you eat it in excess when you are able to afford healthier options.

Christianity Etc › Re: Oyinbo Man Smoking At The Experience 2017 During Prayer Session (Video) by bukster(f): 1:56pm On Dec 04, 2017

Just because an Oyinbo is smoking does not make it right. There is absolutely no benefit to smoking and it is very harmful. Smoking is the leading cause of cancer in the west. Your body is a temple of God and smoking destroys that temple so to me, smoking is a sin.

Not only is smoking bad for you, it is also harmful to the people around you. When you smoke, the people around you are forced to inhale the smoke which also causes cancer. Furthermore, most western countries have laws that prohibit smoking in public places so not only is the Oyinbo man being irresponsible, he is also comitting a crime.

heeeyah ... u got it wronged though .... today larger percentage of Muslim don't marry more than a wife ... .... .. .. but if I may ask, with the girls population in Nigeria ( check higher institutions ) if all guys should marry only one , what will happen to the rest ? pls don't be selfish ... just 3 minutes soki and go ..... .. .. .. smile

Actually statistics show that there are more men in Nigeria than women. The ratio is 1.01 man per 1 woman.
Here is the link: http://www.indexmundi.com/nigeria/demographics_profile.html
By marrying two wives you are the one who is being selfish because now less men will have a chance of marrying women.

Education › Re: Why Is Pidgin English Not Taught Officially In Nigeria? by bukster(f): 2:04pm On Jul 08, 2016

What is the benefit of pidgin? Can it be understood outside of Nigeria. Some regions in Nigeris cannot even understand when someone from a different area speaks pidgin to them. Pidgin does not have a structured grammatical layout and words can just be created from thin air. It has nothing to do with out indigenous language.

The only reason that countries like Jamaica may have Patois had their official language is because they do not have a native one. In the end, students still learn in standard English.

If we want to copy a countries system, it is better to copy India. India is more similar to Nigeria than Jamaica or America. India was also colonized by Britain, there are more indigenous languages spoken in India than in Nigeria. India's education system is considered to be fairly good and are known for being very intelligent worldwide. Indian schools teach in both the native languages and English. By the time the student graduates from Indian schools they can usually speam at least 2 languages fluently and sometimes even 3.

We should be asking for our native languages to be more intergratedbin schools. Many native languages are dying and if Nigeria is not careful we will end up like the likes of Jamaica, Liberia, Haiti. Not having any native language to call our own except for a bastardized form of English.
I am Yoruba and I would prefer to bw taught in Igbo or Hausa in schools than Pidgin.

IGOSABIdotCOM:
thanks a lot, only wondering what my bed will be like after rubbing palm on body

If you want natural products, Aloe Vera will help to soothe the itchiness and Shea butter will reduce the rash. I also found that staying away from the sun helped reduce the pain.
If you want rash to truly go away forever than you need to find the cause of the rash and stop using it. I suggest thay you stop wearing the raincoat and see if your rash has become smaller by 1-2 days.

the warmer I slept with for days which I have never done before only. And maybe an insect bite which I can't say

I have had the same strange rash happen to me before. Someone advised me to wear sunscreen which I had never done before. It caused me to develop a rash like that all over my body, especially my arms, legs and neck.
I went to the doctor and it turned out that I was allergic to sunscreen lipsrsealed

The doctor gave me a cream that helped the rash go down and the itchiness to stop.

Think carefully about if you have used any strange creams lately or eaten anything different.
I don't think the rash is serious and it should go away on its own but if the pain bothers you then you should seek a doctor

jhidey08:
this is the most insanely idiotic thing I've read on Nairaland this year, what happened to d idea of building a good foundation, if u don't teach ur child how to dress modestly when she's small is it when she grows in2 an adult they'll teach her? Ur parents should have allowed u to reach puberty stage b4 allowing u to decide whether u'll go to school or not.

You can teach your child modest dressing without forcing them to wear a hijab. It is only in Nigeria where you see two year old girls wearing hijabs. This is caused by illiteracy and ignorance. Too many people do not understand their own religion.
Even in Saudi Arabia and the rest of the middle east, young girls do not wear hijab until they hit puberty.

Education › Re: Osun Students Appear In Church Garments by bukster(f): 12:37pm On Jun 14, 2016

louqas:
All of you castigating Muslims in this issue are ignorant and as usual are blinded by hate for a governor and his party instead of analysing matters objectively.

The intolerance of osun Christians caused all this. Everyone knows that hijab is part of the dressings of a Muslim woman ,just like it is expected that Christian women cover their hair instead of this unnecessary show of shame by the osun Baptist they can enforce covering of hair by Christian women instead of asking them to wear choir robe to school. Is choir robe part of Christian dress?
Government school belong to everyone Muslim Christian traditionalists and as such no one can deny any student the right to dress properly .The worst those Christians can do is reclaim the schools back from government or create new ones for Christians only.
Have any of you noticed the similarity between hijab and what Catholic nuns wear?

Hijab may be part of the dressing of a Muslim woman but it is not part of the dressing of a Muslim girl. Hijab is a personal decision that should be made when girls hit puberty and not forced unto girls as young as 4 by their parents.

jasysandra:
Ifa is not monotheistic. It is polytheistic with beliefs in many gods such as Sango, Ogun, Eshu, etc etc etc.

Ifa belives in one god. All the others are just deities that exist to help Olodumare like Christian angels and a gateway to Orunmila for believers. Catholics pray to Mary and other Saints but Catholicism is considered monotheistic.

I had to research Ifa for a project and that was how it was described.

if you see a kanuri man that is handsome, that he has mixed parent shuwa and kanuri

I don't find Kanuri men ugly and there's also nothing wrong with dark skin.

I just think that those pictures were not a good representation of an average Kanuri man

Please someone should tell me the nutritional value of cashew and its economical value.

Mtcheeeeeeeeew!

who cashew help, instead of him to invest in Tomatoes, Potatoes, Yams, Casavas, Oranges, Pineapples, e.t.c he chosed Cashew!

Anyways its none of my business.

Cashews are a cash crop.They will most likely be sold abroad. This will help to diversify our economy and strengthen our Naira.
