Some kids in the early '80s were eating them, and my grandmother who was already over 80yrs then acknowledged they also ate it in their childhood.

Wall Gecko is just a different species of lizard, which is also eatable.

In animals, poisons are produced by special glands, located around their heads& necks,or claws.

There's no such poison-producing glands in wall Geckos

This fallacy is being peddled by a bunch of ignorant Nigerians, especially women, who are usually aliens to researches.

@Nairalanda1, i hope you can see how the country is been progressively destroyed by useless policies enacted by clueless and dumb idiots who you guys are supporting?

And i hope you also know that the wicked will have no peace?

Despite being the largest economy in Africa, we are barely indebted to IMF. This is impressive. I reckon this was the forex support we got from the IMF during the covid 19 pandemic but today our economy is in surplus and our GDP keeps increasing quarter on quarter.

Below is the current data on Nigerian economy, Q3, 2023 as shared by Statisense


✅Q3 2023 GDP growth rate at 2.54%.

✅The Oil Sector had it best growth in Q3 2023 since Q1 2020 when it grew by 5.06%.

The naysayers, unpatriotic elements, criminal defamers, cyberbullies and liars will not see these milestones nor benefit from the progress we are making.

Ghana and Egypt no try at all. Ghana is particularly a very bad case given that 56% of her total debt were forgiven around 2002, it's today back in serious debt, economic quagmire and even unable to pay its debt. It's now offering to pay debt with gold and cocoa.

Nigeria is in great,steady, competent and patriotic hands. Dangote Refinery is to start production soon, dry farming to ramp up our wheat, massive electricity projects on going, subsidy off, end to the use of our hard earned forex to defend a USD being overvalued by the street/unpatriotic speculators and a brilliant team headed by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu!

All the enemies of Nigeria ti keran and will lose las las. They always lose.God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!

I wouldn't have opened this thread if i knew it was created by you hypocritical asslicker.

We4all:
The bolded shows your ignorance. The westerners are supposed to get the data page and pictures of all their enemies, take it to a shrine and start the rituals of killing them one after the other, right?

Or better still, they pay a 'one on one' visit to their enemies, just to get an item that belongs to their enemies so it can be used for the rituals, right?

You don't know jack and don't understand how these things work. For someone to attack you spiritually, you must have contact with that person. So, your reasoning of Westerners using spiritual means to kill their enemies is ridiculous.

Saying these things don't exist is admitting that there is no Satan, and also admitting that evil doesn't exist either. I know someone who always doubted these things until life happened.

Your mouth is running because you are yet to experience life. When life happens to you, come back so we can continue the discussion.

This boy thinks I'm still a kid who just came into this world. Do you know how many years i have spent here on earth?
So, if life happens to me, i interpret it spiritually?
That's the mistake all of you with this crazy and weird belief system make whenever you encounter any of the life's challenges.
If your business crashes in a 3rd world country like Nigeria where the economy is struggling, you attribute to village people and end up, not only failing to find the proper solutions to your problems, but also making unnecessary enemies.

If your car get involved in an accident in a country where the roads are deathtraps, you blame it on witchcraft.

People who live like that never really find solutions to their problems and are hardly successful in life.
I don't attribute any challenge i encounter to any supernatural forces, because they do not exist.

We4all:
Next time, don't quote me to display your ignorance pls. If you feel there is no spiritual way of killing people, then you should have ignored my post.

Even the Westerners you are trying so hard to imitate know these things exist. Go and seek knowledge and don't wallow in ignorance.

I can't ignore such posts because i can't tolerate people preaching nonsense that's purely based on unfounded superstitions and ignorance.

Today, Nigerians are suffering because they allowed people got away in the '70s and '80s with the stupid beliefs that rituals give wealth.

Look at how a human is reasoning! Westerners know it exists, yet they invest billions of dollars annually into arms when they can spiritually kill their enemies?!
What a foolish way of reasoning!!
No wonder we're not making any headway in Nigeria!

1TrippleCee:
The joke is on you

There are millions of ways to kill people without physical contact

How many of your enemies have you been able to kill through any of those means?

How many of the numerous useless Nigerian politicians can you kill for us through such non physical means? Or do you love them?

And do you think you would still be alive today if there were a spiritual way of killing people or you don't believe you have enemies some of whom would prefer you dead??

ahnie:
Like seriously?
I rejoice with your family sir!


Mine is wall gecko,I fell down yesterday whilst trying to Nuke one,like I literally landed on my butt.



This fvckterd poisoned our food in 2021 and almost wiped out the entire family.

Since then wall gecko became an endangered species in my home.


Pls rejoice with me for my not breaking my waist,I killed the fvckterd Sha

Wall Gecko is not poisonous for God's sake!

As someone who has excess to nairaland and the internet, you're expected to be better than an average Nigerian market wowan.

There's nothing in wall Gecko that makes it poisonous.
It has no glands anywhere in its system that produce poison like we have in snakes, centipedes, scorpions, etc.

So, where's this rumoured poison located? Some kids used to eat them in the village while we were growing up in the early '80s and they didn't die.

You guys should get educated and stop this evil campaign against an innocent animal/reptile.

We4all:
Too bad! Something similar happened to someone who was very close to me. I won't be surprised if he was posted to replace another staff and he was taken down spiritually. There are too many spiritual battles in the work place and only the strongest survives.

There's no spiritual way of killing people. You guys should stop this primitive belief.

People can only be physically killed through assassination, food poisoning, drinks poisoning, etc.

fineboynl:
Is there anyone here who’s adding weight from afternoon sleep?

The urge to sleep in the afternoon is so strong and I’m not just adding weight only from the afternoon nap but also looking fresher. Good food contribute to it which is a good thing. I have small face compared to my age and adding many flash is something I needed alot more.

But people already saying guy you are adding up oh.

How are you managing to get afternoon naps in a country like Nigeria?

You no dey go work??

Brendaniel:
I was laughing when Tinubu supporters were claiming that with what Tinubu has done the dollar will keep falling and were threatening everyone to start selling their dollars.

I knew Tinubu and his appointees were using cosmetic approach to handle it and it will clean off after a while.

The major FX problem is not based on importation as Tinubu supporters have been made to believe, it mainly lies with corruption perpetrated by the same government and their cronies with a few outside of government.

A thief cannot stop a thief.

T!efnubu is a thief, and unfortunately, he can't stop corruption and stealing in his government.

It'll be a free for all looting, just like during sleepy Buhari's tenure

Only a fool and jihadist like this Gumi will be talking about bombing a group like IPOB that's just a secessionist group in a poorly constituted country that's not working and can never work.

It's not a crime anywhere in the world to agitate for independence.

Cunningly labelling them "terrorists" will never work, neither will it stop the agitation until the right things are done.

Some of you fools, tribal bigots, and jihadists must take that into your empty, bigoted and jihadic skulls.

Stout and cat-fish! Not a good combo!

I now prefer eating it with larger beer. Thats the real deal!

The truth is that you can no longer afford them after voting in the worst government in the history of the country.

With time, you'll also "lose interest in nairaland" after you become unable to afford data.

That'll happen sooner than expected.

[ Don't judge me for posting it here. I did not know where to post this].

I saw that I was sitting with a lady as she was riding a motorcycle. I didn't know where we were going shaaa. Suddenly, she stopped and I offered to ride the motorcycle. Then, somehow, I broke the lady's motorcycle when I tried to ride it.

She called people to fix it but they couldn't so she bought another one.

I was beside her when she made the choice of the motorcycle she wanted to buy.

Next thing I saw was that she was telling me that the new motorcycle is for me. That is, she bought the new motorcycle for me.


Biko, what does this dream mean?

Dreams have no meanings.

Don't waste your short time on earth chasing them.

Xcelinteriors:
Even after all the "osole" they will still look poor and wretched. May we and our love ones not be victim of ritualist

That's a testament to the fact that rituals don't work.

Unfortunately, they all see these evidences and still decide to ignore them.

Deep rooted beliefs, no matter how fallacious and useless, are very difficult to eradicate.

Babangidapikin:
Can't they use 🐐 goat why always human being ...I think Government needs to seat and do a research on this issue, why must human blood be sacrifice..m

The problem with this ritual thing is that all of you are superstitious and believe rituals can bring riches.

If you believe a goat's blood will work, it'll also mean that human blood will do better.

The solution is to eradicate this longstanding, unsubstantiated, fallacious and useless belief that's purely based on ignorance and superstition.

Human or animal sacrifice never brings wealth, and anyone killed for such purposes would have been just killed for nothing.

I've always used every opportunity i get to sanitize the minds of the people of this noxious, irritating beliefs and i urge every enlightened Nigerian to do the same.

Rituals don't work! Rituals don't bring wealth! Only fools think it does!

drimzsmoke:
Hospitals, some doctors do that too!!!

No doctor does that rubbish, man!

The problem with Nigerians is that they ignorantly call everyone working in the hospital, including the male porters and ward attendants, a doctor.

pendragonbladgo:
You can't understand, its all the sectors including lecturers ..

Why should they be punish when we are all into it in Nigeria, they are just happy Police with their usual money begging slogan

Stop encouraging stupidity and shamelessness!

I hope you are not like them??

This is the same nonsense they do to travelers in and around the airports, and it has to stop.

you enjoy what israel is doing in palestine right?, how would you feel if your brothers or sisters are studying in university of maiduguri then the military bomb some of the faculties your siblings are simply because boko haram are hiding there.?,or they bomb their hostel because bandits lives around there,[b]God will punish those of you supporting israel if you cant answer this [/b]

Just shut up, this jihadi boy

Who sent you to go start a stupid, unnecessary war on the 7th of October??

Israel have to act in a way that will deter the terrorists from repeating the massacre, and that will cause a lot of acceptable collateral damage.

Don't blame anyone for your terrorist brothers' foolishness and recklessness.

The solution next time is to never start a useless war.

"The Muslim clerics in the North came and sold this fraudulent Muslim-Muslim ticket..."

Still we are being being told that it's Obi that played religious politics.

That's the narrative the yoruba muslims used to deceived some unsuspecting southerners to buy into their jihadic agenda.

okito:
The North and South should never have been amalgamated. 2 completely different kinds of people with different ideologies. They use religion when it suits their purpose. As a Christian, I don't care if we have Muslim-Muslim, I just want a government that delivers.

This is the mistake you gullible christians keep making, and why you keep losing ground.

So, has any muslim president been able to deliver so far since 1970??

IBB's ''delivery'' was to register your country as a member of OIC.

Buhari's 'delivery' was hand over the control of every parastatal in the country into the hands of his fellow muslims

In other words, their main purpose of supporting the muslim-muslim ticket was to kill the non-muslims .

Just imagine what's coming out from the mouth of a former NHIS boss, a national leader!

These people are bloody jihadists, irrespective of their positions.

When you go to see someone in the office and s/he came out to meet you at the reception or waiting room, does it mean the person respects you or does it mean that the person sees you as someone not worthy to be invited into the office?

People (big people) always come out of their offices to meet me whenever I go to see them.
Like, when I was a student in the uni, I went to see the VC and he came out of his office to meet me at the waiting room. We discussed and I left.

There was a time I went to see one of these House of Assembly members. When he was informed that I was around, the guy came out of this office to meet me where I was asked to wait for him. I was wondering why he didn't invite me in. Though it was my first time of visiting him and we weren't friends. I went on personal visit.

Another one happened when I went to visit a first-class chief in my state. When his secretary told him I was in the waiting room, this man came out to meet me there. I greeted him and after passing my message, I left.

Last week, I went to see a professor. I was sitting, still in the waiting room when this man came out to meet me. He is the DG of one Federal Agency here in Nigeria.


They never invited me into their offices. Why?

Those of you who know about office rules abi na office management, waitin e mean say big man stand up come meet you outside instead make him invite you inside him office?

Maybe, alcohol has succeeded in enlarging your abdomen, giving them a false impression that you're a big man

Nazgul:
January isn't long, what makes it look long to salary earners is that all employers pay their staffs between 18th or latest 21st of December.

Most of the time, these employers already have a mapped out budget on how they're going to spend their Christmas holidays. Traveling, partying, clubbing, getting the kids new clothes, more and more expenses..etc.

So by 31st of the same December, they're already broke. And January salary wouldn't come until the end of January, so they have to endure weeks and weeks of bankruptcy making January look like the longest month on the calendar.

The solution to this is to have an alternative source(s) of income.

He was speaking figuratively and was well understood.

You people hate your fathers. Stop the "he wasn't present" BS

300 level, there was no money at home, I couldn't pay fees or lodge rent. My dad was getting depressed but tried to hide it.

A few days to resumption, he and I drove to his friend's house by 8pm. The man was at a meeting, but we waited till 9/10 thereabouts.

When he was done, he attended to us. I suspected the reason we were there, but it had never happened before and didn't think it would.

My beloved father said to his friend:

"My son will be resuming school next week. For now I don't have any money to send him back. Look at him here. Please lend me Bleep amount; I'll repay as soon as I get it. He's in 300 level. He has 2 years to go."

I wept inside because I had to witness my dad borrow money to send me back to school.

A lot of you come to talk bullshit about your dads, about how he didn't bond and other stupid things.

If your fathers had carried you to the places they went to earn, borrow or beg for money, you wouldn't say they didn't turn up for you.

I understand how easy it is to fall into mummy's bosom and never crawl out. But you think provision is just dropping money in accounts and in mummy's lap?

Do you know how that money was gotten? Do you know how many people didn't go to school because their father's died?

Bleep bonding! Bleep being present!!

All I needed from my father was being alive to provide for me. I didn't need him toiling around the house and gisting with me.

Many of my friends lost their fathers at an early age. I was praying everyday for my dad to come back home. That was the only form of presence I needed.

Shame on you if you become successful and abandon your father because of stupid emotional crap. Especially when you're a man.

You're a correct guy.

May God bless you for saying and teaching others the truth.

This should be moved to the FP.
