Ayomipoe:
To be honest @OP, the drug abuse wave is not choosy of the tribe that it has found its abode. In my opinion, it is purely driven by profits.
You may observe the phenomenon better in your environment, but to be honest, it's everywhere and it will get worse. Why? Profits.
As far back as 2016 (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/meth-super-lab-raided-nigeria-4-mexicans-arrested-n538496) Mexicans have already been arrested trying to cook the stuff in Lagos. It used to be expensive, hence you had to be super hooked or rich to come in contact with it.
This has evolved with more labs and more quantity. You can buy 1 gram of (ICE) for about 1k-3k in Ogun state now. I suspect that and inflation is what is moving boys from Agege to wait on major bus stops *begging*/harassing individuals.
It's not something that is stuck to your region only. It's a serious national problem that we are failing at woefully.
TM, both 100mg and 225(Tomato), Royphnol, Diazepam are being sold all around us in Lagos/Ogun/Kaduna by Hausa peddlers that have a small kiosk where they sell medicine, they are the frontmen in charge of this trade. Weed and different strains of cannabis selling gangs are not restricted by the tribe to get supply, unlike TM, Rev and Diaza, to start that up you mostly just need to know where to get supply from(Idioro, Alaka, Agege). I suspect Molly / Ecstasy / Heroin and Cocaine will be from those places too but waka never carry me to try those, so that's speculation on my part. Codine was in rave before, the cost per bottle/scarcity has discouraged consumers.
So @OP, it's the one that afflicts you that you see. It is already a national problem.
PS. Sorry if you find it offensive that I wrote that a tribe was responsible for a section of the illicit trade, it is merely a practical experience on my part that since 2013, I have only interacted with them when attempting to buy TM/REV every time, in 3 different states with the same Modus Operandi, it is not a coincidence that it is organized crime.

The Hausa vermins peddling these rubbish are all over ogba

walexnaira:
God is not the author of confusion. When he calls, he backs you up. And especially when he give a specific assignment or a direction to a particular purpose, He makes sure he goes before you and clear the way. That is why one of His name is the Alpha and Omega. And his words are yes and Amen. The bible is full of many examples.
This so called pastor contested before and failed woefully, now is contesting again. One thing I want the Christians to know and anyone reading this text is that, the man in question was not called to the pulpit, he called himself. Secondly , if he claim to be called by God and in extension to rule Nigeria as a president. He wouldn't have failed in the first place. Because God is not a failure. He was a lawyer good at his profession. He used to be a Sunday school teacher at the redeem church long time ago. But left for his own reasons. His oratory prowess is not a criteria for the office of a pastor. To be a levite is not by merit or ability, is purely the work of grace from the creator. As a levite (pastor), you're expected to be at the pulpit 24hrs. Not diving into politics. The position and the office is sacred. The reasons why other eleven tribes of Israel were not chosen but only the tribe of Levi to carry the mantle of God and to represent him in that office, and that office alone.. so the pastor should check himself up if actually he is called by God.

This is not sound.

ubee:
Wow! At this point some people close to Bakare have to take a close look at him and probe his capacity to rational thinking.

This has to be his 5th or 6th time of expressing interest, and though he never stood an atom of a chance to win his parties ticket for the Presidential election; that is not even my problem.

My problem is that he seems to be blissfully ignorant of the fact that he is wasting his time and stressing his loved ones because he doesn't belong in the political circles clearly.

He goes missing and anonymous once the election season is over.
He doesn't play partisan politics by association with the rest of the party members. He is not offered portfolios, then why does he keep returning?

Wrong.

This is the man we need.

This is the man Nigeria and Nigerians need.

This is the man with the heart and head to lead.

This is the man that cannot only talk the talk, he can walk the talk.

Tunde Bakare is for Nigeria and for all Nigerians. Don't lose hope. Don't despair. Let God do what He alone can do.

greypencils:
M He should have done his research to know governance start from the grassroots. You work your way from bottom to the top. I put him in the category of the unserious anyway, the likes of Dele Momodu, Delay Durotoye, Chris Okotie, Pat Utomi, Yele Sowore, and co. Start from your constituency, a seat at the house of representatives, test the water by practicing on the shallow end. That is the path of wisdom. Good luck to him for jumping into the deep end. He has a 100 million naira to waste anyway.

I hear you.

But it is not always wise to start from 0 when you have the faith to leapfrog.

Why not wait till after the primaries before speaking so disparagingly of him?

smartmom:
Reality will soon unfold. Like play play the seemingly impossible will play out. We deserve a righteous man to lead us out of the quagmire we are in.

Thank you o.

The Almighty rules in the affairs of men and gives it to anyone He pleases even to the basest of men. This time however, God has a person He has chosen. Let Him do what only He can do.

Seun:
Deuteronomy 18
20 But the prophet who speaks a word presumptuously in My name, a word which I have not commanded him to speak, or which he speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.’
21 And if you say in your heart, ‘How will we recognize the word which the Lord has not spoken?’
22 When the prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, and the thing does not happen or come true, that is the thing which the Lord has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously.

Simple. We'll wait and see.

Wrong.

He has well researched, practical and workable answers for each of those questions up there. He has been saying it since forever. The vast majority of Nigerians don't read anyways.

LibertyRep:
God? How?

Sincerely, nothing is impossible for God to do, but I'm sure he'll do for you what you can't do for yourself.

How can a candidate who hasn't been crisscrossing the length and breadth of the country canvasing for votes from delegates suddenly feels God will hand him the party's ticket.

That you don't read that in the news does not mean he has not been doing his bit.

IgOga:
He's running for President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria....you must be ready to play dirty to make headway in Nigerian politics....I think Bakare will call himself a politician at this stage.

I can be passionate about football especially Arsenal but I won't apply to be Arsenal's Manager because I think Wenger or Arteta are doing a bad job. Bakare need to get clarity about his calling.

Nope. You're wrong when you say that.

It is possible to maintain contact without contamination. It is no different from handling toxins or poisonous substances. You don't have to touch them with your hands to analyse them. By the same logic, you can have contact without contamination even with the basest of person.

Yes, you'll need wisdom. The right type of wisdom. I hope you understand.

Not sure if Bakare is a pastor or a politician but both starts with a "p" Interesting his four plans start with P

Yes, he is a pastor. No, he is not a politician. He is however a statesman, a nation builder. They aren't the same thing.

Jmichael1:
Good day my fellow nairalanders.
please I'm not good in writting, abeg make una pardon me. I just want to go straight to the point.

i'm michael,the first child of my parents(all boys)as a 1st son,i took 90% of my dad character of wish i don't like 70% of them but i can't stop acting like him, I behave exactly like him in almost every thing.

I have tried all i could to stop bt no way...
Please want do u guys suggest for me to do?
i don't want to live the kind of life my dad lived.

please i need your advice...

Good enough that you're a Christian.

In the books of Kings 1 & 2 and Chronicles 1 & 2, there are plenty instances where a good king will give birth to a son that will do evil before God when that son becomes king after his father and that evil son now king will give birth to a son that will be completely opposite his evil father in every way.

One of such is Josiah, the eight year old boy that became king and followed in the footsteps of David his father meanwhile his biological father wasn't David.

The point is you don't have to model your life after your biological father. There are wholesome models around, follow them, copy their lifestyle and in due time God's Spirit will make you your unique father identity the way it's meant to be.

Just learned the hard way. Funny, how topics that are helpful will never come up when you're yet to have issues but once you have the issues all the topics related to that issue will now be everywhere.

efepeppereski:
Good day all. Can a solar inverter powered a Hisense inverter AC? If yes, what capacity of solar inverter can power the AC? Thanks.

This too.

Hi Sacramento1212,

Great thread and inputs from you guys. So, I have read through the thread from page 1 to 13 and I have three questions:

1. Is the type of refrigerant r410 written on the AC body or label? How would you know the type of refrigerant that is in an AC?

2. Are brands that say their AC has low consumption (Scanfrost, Skyrun, Etc) the same thing as inverter AC?

3. AC coil I gathered should be copper and not aluminium. How would one know the type of coil that is in an AC brand? Is it something one can know by looking at the label on the AC?

Barrister026:
Pastors wife wants the junior pastor to be reporting to her if her husband is not around or any issue at all during church service.

She try as much to be in charge when her husband is off in another Church to minister.

This nearly caused a problem in the church today, while I was going home surprisingly a friend of mine supported the pastor's wife.. that she's the first lady of the church of God if her husband is not around.
she can represent him anytime to coordinate like most churches

What's your take on this issue is it right?

This is one out of the many issues that a well drawn constitution will resolve. The constitution of a non-profit ideally should provide for governance structure and leave no doubt about the hierarchy of decision making bodies.

Even an unregistered nonprofit can have a constitution detailing its internal processes. As regards this present case, there isn't enough detail to give useful advice.

Mariangeles:
The correct reply to that would be either Yes, I do mind. Meaning, you don’t want. Or No, I don’t mind. Meaning, you want.

Thank you Mariangeles. Thank yous to tchidi066, thatigboman1, Michelle70, phemmyfour, walker and yMcy56. I know better now.

Though not a word but a phrase and how it's correctly used.
How do you properly respond to the question below and what does those response actually mean.

Hello NLanders,

I will like to compile the names of unregulated investment companies that are around. The type of investment companies that promises or offer to pay, say 30-40% or higher to investors who invest a certain amount in their businesses. Many of these type of companies are duly registered with the CAC. Many of them have verifiable business plans or projects and many do not.

So, whichever one you know or you've invested in, please mention them and if you know their status, whether they are operational or not, please include that too.

Thank you!
