Education / Re: Muslim Girls Suspended From Isolo Secondary School Lagos For Wearing Hijab by cola: 12:47pm On Sep 19, 2018
lagosrd:
If the issue is that they can obey conventional secondary education. It's simple let them go to an Islamic secondary school that has the same educational standard and academic records and stop this nonsense. Goverment has more stuffs to deal with.

It's hate, intolerance and chronic bigotry that make people lose the benefit of their education , if they even have any at all.

A Christian principal arrives and orders Muslim girls to remove a head covering that's a requirement of the practice of their religion.

Imagine a Muslim principal arriving and ordering Christian nuns to remove their head covers, especially when the court of law has ruled that they have the right to wear the head cover in and out of school...

But of course bigots choose when to recognise the court and when to obey their hate-inspired, unrefined heart prompts.

Whether haters and the silly principal like it or not, the girls would wear the hijab and your hate would only eat you up from inside.

Politics / Re: Nigeria Is Rising. Collateral Free Agricultural Loans Are Real by cola: 12:53pm On Aug 15, 2018
Butterflyle0:


My brother I own a farm and that amount is even too much for those starting off. You are talking about 5 hectares of land as if everyone must begin with 5 hectares.

I know people who began with as little as 3 acres (18 plots) and grew from there.

Is 3 acres also meant for subsistence farming?


I admire you commitment and energy.
If I were you though, I'd leave this lot alone. If the loan credit alert had been 1m naira, this eternal cynics would still have found a reason to whine that it's too much or still too little.

He wants to start from 10 hectares. Yeye.
Politics / Re: Defection: lf Akpabio Becomes Senate President, APC Would Be 2nd Time Silly by cola: 1:35pm On Aug 05, 2018
MaziOmenuko:
And you think APC doesn't know that? Everyone at the APC knows, but will pretend not to know until election is won. Then they will remind him that he wasn't among the founding fathers; then will support shift to the APC candidate for senate president.

Right now, he thinks he is using APC. Soon, he will realize he's being played. APC needs headway into the South generally. So even if that headway is coming from Judas Ischariot himself, no qualms until after elections.

I understand your standpoint and I infact agree with your second paragraph. But APC's antecedent with the saraki case does not agree with the opinion in your first paragraph.

One can't be too careful to drum it in their ears not to be second time silly.

Politics is a game of numbers. Anybody that brings the number might be accepted but what position they get in governance is a different consideration altogether.

It is a huge joke to think that they can use hard core pdp members to achieve their aim.

Saraki taught them the lessons of their life dem no learn now they want to use akpabio.
I laugh

The first time might be understandable.
I don't think they would make the same mistake a second time.

Would be interesting to hear what reasons Mr. Akpabio would give for his cross-carpeting.

...by the way, the ramble above me remains ignored, deliberately.
Politics / Defection: lf Akpabio Becomes Senate President, APC Would Be 2nd Time Silly by cola: 12:23pm On Aug 05, 2018
If Akpabio gets to become Senate president with the APC, the saraki leadership of the red chamber would simply be repeated, and the APC would have only itself to blame.

This is a no-brainer and I'd want to think that the supposedly smart ones in the APC would not allow that to happen again.

The senator should lose his seat anyway.
Abi there's division currently in his party ni?

Is it not now safe to say 90% of folks on this forum these days are at best semi-literate? And these are the same folks always expressing opinions on about every issue on this forum, seeking to shape other people's opinions.
They go from topic to topic shouting "dullard" "dullard".
They are in their hundreds on this forum with bare comprehension of even the most basic issues, giving one another 'likes' in hundreds.

Now I understand why many people don't take this forum seriously anymore... Such a shame!

Finally!
After two long years of expectations.

These things really can take time to happen sha.
People count in days days and weeks...
Govt's count in quarters and years

In your mind, it has taken a hundred weeks, waiting for a new development week in week out.
In their mind (govt.), it has taken only 8 quarters.

Lesson: the mill of govt, like justice, grinds slowly, sometimes annoyingly and unjustifiably slowly.

When a group you had high expectations for seems to just have thrown names together with or without consent, it leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

Ayo Obe has dissociated herself from the group. She did so on public radio saying she was never consulted not contacted before putting her name in the group. She said she does not know what the group stands for.
Femi Falana essentially did same on channels TV a few days back.
This doesn't portend well for this 'rescue' group that wants to do things properly.

Interesting days in America. I don't know Steve Banon's intent on telling all, whether it's altruistic and in the nation's interest or he's just sore...

13. Trump's Staff Are Afraid to Let Him Do Interviews
With Trump's tendency for repetition and lapses, not to mention off-the-cuff comments, his staff allegedly urged him to forgo a "60 Minutes" interview intended to open that show's fall season. Instead, they went with Sean Hannity, with insiders saying it was because he was willing to supply his questions beforehand. Hannity quickly denied this claim in a statement to Mediate: "I never provided questions ahead of time to Trump and never said I was going to quit my longtime, successful TV and radio career to work for Trump."

12. Trump May Be Only Semi-Literate
One of the biggest challenges staffers faced was wrangling the president and communicating directly with him. They reportedly say he processes information in a very scatter-brained way, shifting focus with the wind. He apparently doesn't read, and barely even skims.

11. Trump Is Probably His Own Leak
While Trump became obsessed with finding out who was leaking all of his personal and private habits to the media, it may well be that it was Trump himself. He allegedly has a habit in the evening lamenting to his associates and friends about his day, his grievances, his enemies, really whatever came to mind. Those people were under no obligation or expectation that they should keep his words to themselves, and so likely many of them fed their scoops to the hungry media.

10. Trump Eats McDonalds for Fear of Poisoning
Much fun has been made of Trump's voluminous McDonalds order, but there's another reason than those delicious fries for his penchant for the fast-food giant. Just as he demanded no one touch his toothbrush for fear of it being poisoned, Wolff says he chooses McDonalds because they don't know he's coming and the food is generally already premade.

After moving to the White House, Trump is said to have retreated to his bedroom (he does not share a room with the First Lady) where he ordered two additional televisions and wanted a lock put on the inside of his door. The Secret Service balked at this, saying they needed access to him. Trump also demanded no one touch anything in his room, including the cleaning staff.

Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump defied the advice of everyone they knew to take roles in the Trump administration. Their plan was to allegedly set Ivanka up for a future run for president. "They didn't say that?” Bannon said when he heard of the plan. "Stop. Oh, come on. They didn't actually say that? Please don't tell me that. Oh my God."
