Tadeknkeepcalm:
Thanks for this. Misinformation is a deadly thing in our generation.

Thanks. This forum is so rife with ignorance it gets irritating. Take this guy calling himself professorcplus. See my reply to him above

Brainiac12:
Who has the balls to keep a decade old moniker with over 5000 posts and 900 topics
Black brother

Someone hiding it, white brother.

Professorcplus:
The solstice Precisely occurred today June 21st;still bright till around 7:23pm. Whichever way, other information as regarding the phenomenal is correct.

Why are you people so LAZY??!! You don’t have to go to a library like before. You don’t even have to leave your phone. Just type on Google and you still can’t do it!! See below!!
The other thread totally spreads confusion and misinformation and any mod with a sense of responsibility would have it deleted.

Brainiac12:
Farewell black brother
We ain't quarrelling
I've been a member of nairaland since 2009 then decided to change moniker last year..
So get your facts � right ✌️

R u from Russia by any chance, white brother?
Why r u hiding your old moniker??

Brainiac12:
Who the hell says I'm scam
And how much can I scam you Nigerians
Check my profile slowpoke

Everything about your profile screams: SCAM!
Now stop derailing

Brainiac12:
And who made that ideology

Only real mugus will fall for your scam.
This is an educational thread whose aim is to correct prior misinformation

Brainiac12:
What's my business with short or long days so long I make cool cash from forex trade
Nothing

Everybody knows forex trade is a scam. This is real

This thread is to correct misinformation and confusion contained in the thread “Today Is The Longest Day Of The Year...”
https://www.nairaland.com/5939166/today-longest-day-year-there

** There is no shortest or longest day in Nigeria because Nigeria is close to the equator. Close to the equator the days (daylight in a day) are about same length all year round.

** June solstice (called Summer Solstice in Nothern Hemisphere, and Winter solstice in Southern Hemisphere) is the longest day of the year ONLY IN THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE; it is the shortest day of the year in the Southern Hemisphere.

**December Solstice (called Winter Solstice in Nothern Hemisphere, and Summer Solstice in Southern Hemisphere) is the longest day of the year in the Southern hemisphere and the shortest day of the year in the Nothern hemisphere.

**On June Soltice there is 24hr daylight (“midnight sun”) at the North Pole (Arctic Circle), while South Pole (Antarctica) experiences 24hr darkness. Reverse is the case on December solstice.

Lalasticlala, Seun and the mods, I respectfully suggest you remove that other thread. Otherwise it continues to misinform and confuse lots of people, and gives the false impression that Nairaland is a willful purveyor of misinformation and fake news.
Thanks.

Bhadmus77:
Lol... Something that today was very short.. It was dark around 6 already.
So how come it's the longest

tomdon:
Oga you can lie oo
I was driving around as from 6pm and I didn't have to switch on my headlights until well after 7. I somehow knew the darkness didn't come early

U r both wrong. OP is the one creating confusion and misinformation. 9ja is near the equator. Near the equator the days are same length all year round. And yesterday was the SHORTEST day in the Southern Hemisphere, and South Pole had 24hr darkness!

rikamann:
Thank you Shoodboi

Well he fed u misinformation and confusion.
Here’s correct info:

Kennydoc:
You tried, but a little correction is that summer solstice is the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere and the shortest day of the year in the southern hemisphere. The reverse will be the case on Winter Solstice on December 21st.
In terms of midnight sun, that happens for 6 months (from March 21st to September 23rd) in the North Pole. In the Arctic Circle, it will only happen on Summer Solstice. shoodboi

No, he didn’t try at all. Writing on a topic he knows little about. I don’t know how Lalasticlala and other mods can put such misinformation on front page!
Shows how much scientific ignorance is on Nairaland.

** Close to the equator (Nigeria) the days are about same length all year round.

** summer solstice (or June solstice) is the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere and the shortest day of the year in the southern hemisphere

**Winter solstice (or December solstice) is the longest day of the year in the Southern hemisphere and the shortest day of the year in the Nothern hemisphere

** There’d be 24hr daylight only at the arctic circle, while Antarctica will experience 24hr darkness. Reverse is the case on December solstice.

Please I need any link

Go to travel section. You’d be overwhelmed with so many links and up to date stuff

babyphaze07:
Which lock down? The mass testing been done now should had been done in April when the lockdown was total. Nigeria has just headed nowhere. Lockdown in April was useless without massive testing.

Which mass testing? Funny people. Just New York alone tests 80,000 PER DAY! (See below)
While entire Nigeria has tested 108,000 since corona began!

Yeecar:
Why?

Why would your neighbor be apologetic if he (even if unknowingly) gave you corona that ends up killing some members of your family??

Vicvalentine:
And you are sure that’s what killed him��‍♂️


For Pete’s sake , have people not been dying normally even before the overhyped sickness, can’t someone just die a normal death or from sickness without been linked to covid or whatsoever

Of course not - Cross River has zero corona - ZERO!
U and I know it is Bill Gates/Illuminati scam. Though their point is that the death rate was never this high b4

Andrew13:

MR. FAKE NEWS.
Dennis Mukwege never said that

Sharatan:
THEY NEED A PLATFORM TO BE ABLE TO ACCOUNT FOR THE USE OF MONIES THEY HAVE LOOTED VIA THIS COVID19 ISSUE. THATS WHY THEY KEEP ON GIVING US AUDIO CASES.

LAGOS KOR LAGOS NI�


I TOOK OUT FEW DAYS TO INQUIRE AND INVESTIGATE THIS LAGOS COVID19 ISSUE BUT I AM STILL YET TO FIND SOMEONE THAT KNOWS SOMEONE THAT KNOWS SOMEONE WHO HAS DIED OF THIS SICKNESS IN LAGOS


WE ARE FULLY AWARE OF WHAT'S GOING ON!
WHO UNA DEY WHINE

Yes, it is a scam by Bill Gates and 5G. Even in Cross River that claim they have zero case, it killed their Assembly member!

The truth is, behind every great fortune of which the source is not obvious, there is a crime someone got away with

FuckTheWorld:
As long as the crisis and killings won't go beyond the northern region, IT'S ABSOLUTELY FINE BY ME.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

EliteBiz:
My friend, lay down your human pride, so that the veil can be lifted from your eyes. You dont know who you are yet, You will when you are humble and realize you dont know anything, but if you continue to hang on to the knowledge of all you know, You will just function less of what you are created to be. I am not deceiving you. The spiritual realm exist. There are spirits, there are demons, there are powers etc. Be humble, You have a spirit in you, dont let your mind be enslaved by science, science is just a drop of water unto the sea. Do I sound like a religion brainwashed fellow to you? No! Because I received grace to be enlightened. Be humble, and you will as well, that's why we are made from dust.

Sir, u r the one hanging onto “knowledge” from popular cliches and basing your conclusions on them without thought, questioning, or evidence. You are also the one mentioning religion and science. I have not claimed to definitively know the nature of our universe. All I have done is give u solid real life examples and challenged u to give like real-life examples that support your cliches. So far all u have done is throw around words like religion, science, spiritual realm, powers, knowledge

philip0906:
Nonsense!

Tell your sister to pay up or go to jail.

You know almost NOTHING about this. Why not just SHUT UP till u know the full story before u start offering your opinion - that is just common sense. It is very painful to be falsely accused of rape but it is equally painful to be raped but no one believes u.

Joefat:
Oga u have problem with this your episode comment..

Oga why don’t u tell us what problem u have

.

Godpikin4real:
Really?

Stop propagating falsehood. That photo was doctored

Yampotatocarrot:
No, it's not about deciding for myself. Dbanj has a name, a brand, a family and all these will be affected negatively due to such news.

That's where the problem is.

That’s why public opinion matters. If several people come out to say the girl cried to them about it at the time, and other girls come out to accuse him of same thing (as is the case with Fato..). The court still can’t convict, but YOU can, public opinion can

BeLookingIDIOT:
Up to 5,000 deaths could have been prevented....out of 42,000 deaths thou

5,000 souls is a lot - even if mostly sickly, old folks who’d die shortly anyway

Yampotatocarrot:
Really? The bone of contention here isn't whether he had sex with her, it is whether he raped her. Since she brought up the allegation, the on us now likes on her to provide sufficient evidence to prove it.

If she doesn't provide such, and it's just a case of "she said", then he has every right to sue her ass out. I hope he doesn't drop the case cos I sure know the girl doesn't have any evidence against him, if anything like that ever happened.

Now, it's time to see what the judge will say in this case. Let's see what all the human right groups who have been carrying placards will have to say. Maybe they'll also ask him to forgive her or carry placards against false accusations

The point is that you don’t have the fully story - u don’t even know if the claim is that they never even had sex. Only when u hear the full story can u decide FOR YOURSELF what u think happened. Forget the judge and court - YOU decide for yourself. That’s what forms public opinion

HRMK:
FICTION!

No, it is real. There are many, many French men in Abidjan and many African girls on the lookout for such, and from time to time it happens. This is not the first and won’t be the last. Other French men will see the guy and come to Abidjan looking for exactly same thing

franconian:
How did you arrive at that conclusion?

What conclusion?

Myk1234:
Pl's, what's the name of that "Europe's best country" ? This appears like a made up story

Being Abidjan it can only be one country -

F
R
A
N
C
E



No it is not a made-up nor is it uncommon. She was a professional and married one of her johns. Many girls in Abidjan are constantly on lookout for such, so are many French men

DaddyMorenike:
If I say what's on my mind now, they will say I have come.
Shebi last last Na straf she straf the white man for hotel.

Una don come again
