There u got it wrong again.
Shagari did not win any elections and was and is an illegal and illegitimate President.
The main reason why Buhari had him removed in a coup.
Shonekan had more legitimacy than Shagari.
Go and verify.

Who won the election?

You sure say this woman go law sch
In the United States, your license may be revoked in a state, and you will be practicing in another..
This is another country entirely..

But why all our leaders self dey get cases for neck

So if you committed murder you can't be disbared because it's in another place?

Proud mother, hope his hands are clean

Hope against hope

Some people will be embarrassed to show that that local woman is their mother

Xisnin:
That is because you don't understand the meaning of development.
You think it is high rise buildings in certain district or having the record for the longest road, tallest building blablabla.
Generally, things that amuse the lower class.


Absolutely, that is why you can simply move to an autocratic state to escape democracy.


China actively suppress democracy movement.
Note the difference.
And the fact that Taiwan exists as a democratic and prosperous state prove that
their is nothing special in Chinese nor deterministic autocracy. It is just a means to maintain elite power.


Sp what?
Massive oil reserve plus nukes courtesy of its eastern colonies.


So what?
What was Gaddaffi's achievement?
Sharing a little of the abundant oil resources to Libya's few citizens.
Any idiot can do that.


I suspect you have a naive view of development and you just confirmed it.
Governance is all about pomp and pageantry to you, the people be damned.

It is no surprise that you worship the visionless spendthrift military guys
who enjoyed massive oil boom but could not deliver any nationwide essential
infrastructure.

You're talking foolish. Development is NOT having all these wanton kidnappings all over the place like we have today. Do you think that'd be happening under military? The funny thing is that we really don't have democracy. Example, no force on earth can remove Tinubu from Aso Rock except an act of God - no matter the will of the people!

Xisnin:
No, the cost of governance is very different from corrupt practises.
Don't confuse the two.
If you are only concerned by the cost of governance, you should be
advocating for a lifelong monarchy or emperor, not military who
could be deposed via coup that will likely turn bloody and may even lead
to a civil war.

For those of us who place value on principles beyond money, we will advocate
and support any democratic system over some gun totting idiots in uniform.

This is the mentality that has Africa underdeveloped. DEMOCRACY IS NOT FOR EVERYONE! China doesn't have democracy, neither does Russia! Gadafi was military. The best and most expensive Nigerian building abroad (Nigeria house near UN in NYC) could NOT have been built under demo - because it is a "waste of money"!

Xisnin:
If we are to be purist, 100% of democratic leadership engage in corruption
as does 100% of military regimes.
So, who is correcting who?

Except that in the case of demo you have a whole bunch of thieves plus the courts and lawyers at Fed, state, and local, then cost of running elections, INEC, appealing, etc. The cost of governance becomes very high

Botragelad:
Lol. What historical fact are you talking about?
When Spain transitioned from Franco’s fascism to democracy, it wasn’t tanks or military but elections that built stability or your own idea of “corrective action” is to suspend constitutions, murder dissenters, and hoard power?. Democracies, no matter how shambolic, at least allow citizens to change leaders.

Name one military regime that left a nation more democratic, prosperous, and free than it found it.

@bolded, The military that handed over to Shagari did just that

CaptainFM1:
SMHFU!

Nigerian siblings now mean the pictures are taken in Nigeria?

You lack comprehension. This is why Jamb assess you on "Use of English" as against WAEC "English Language"

No the pictures are taken in Tahiti. If you read "Kenyan couple" it means the picture was taken in Iceland. You NL geniuses eh!

MaxInDHouse:
It's Adamic sin that made man fall short of the glory of God! Romans 3:23

In the beginning God made man in His image and said:
“Be fruitful and become many, fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving on the earth.” Genesis 1:28

After Satan made them to rebel against God this is what God said:

“Because you listened to your wife’s voice and ate from the tree concerning which I gave you this command, ‘You must not eat from it,’ cursed is the ground on your account. In pain you will eat its produce all the days of your life. It will grow thorns and thistles for you, and you must eat the vegetation of the field. In the sweat of your face you will eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For dust you are and to dust you will return.” Genesis 3:17-19

From that day everything on the planet started turning against man, the ground refused to yield it's produce as it should, the weather turned into something else, the animals became our enemies even insects started sucking our blood all due to the CURSE that came along with sin!

So it's sin that changed everything!

Lol you sometimes wonder how a grown-up would believe some of this stuff (including myself!)😅
But animals never ate any fruit and still don't know good from evil till today, so how come all that suffering also apply to them??😂
Also, what was Adam supposed to do, his wife now knew he was a moroņ who did not even know he was naked. His wife who was NOT even created when God gave Adam the instruction not to eat. If he didn't eat the fruit, if you were his wife, would you stay married to a moroņ with no self-awareness?🤣

Simple: in this system you can't have good without evil. That's why there are two voices in your head.
When this system is abolished there'd only be one voice in your head - the voice telling you to do good!

Ewedegubbler:
Does it mean that power Mike was doing the same thing that these current clowns at WWE are doing in the name of wrestling nowadays?

Of course. It was all fake and choreographed but Nigerians never knew. But they enjoyed it

Realdeals:
Power Uti was the most famous Nigeria wrestler in the 90's. I remember him beating Kamala in Lagos.

I bet you never knew it was all fake and choreographed

adalame:
Nigeria is a wonderful nation, and I’m truly proud to be a Nigerian. I sincerely hope to see the country regain its greatness.

But we NOW know wrestling is fake and pre-arranged and all these "world champions" were never wirkd champions at all, including Power Mike. It was just entertainment like a comedy skit.
Nigerians are so gullible

MaxInDHouse:
Marriage is forever on planet earth so it will continue to be whether there is evil or not.
Animals began eating animals after the first sin before then all animals eat straws together. Isaiah 65:25
So it's after Satan has been destroyed that everything will return to normal.
As for those chosen to rule with Christ in heaven they will no longer be humans there but angels (spirits) it's our bodies that determines our sexuality since spirits don't have physical bodies getting married will no longer be their kind of life again when they get to heaven. Luke 20:34-36

Your counterbalancing does not makes sense at all so next time i'm commenting don't jump in and start criticizing i'm different from your folks that you will lie to them and cover up with "God bless you" i won't take it from you, if you hate Jehovah's Witnesses keep that within you don't bring that close to me thinking you can rubbish me comments.

Funny guy, what has sin to do with animals? How can animals sin when they never ate the fruit and don't know good from evil?
THIS IS A SYSTEM OF DUALITIES!! The exception cannot be existence of good without evil!!!

You were told to study Mathew, I'd now post it here for you. STUDY (not just read) the words of Christ (do you see anywhere he implied they were in heaven?):
Jesus replied, “You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. 30 At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. 31 But about the resurrection of the dead—have you not read what God said to you, 32 ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’[b]? He is not the God of the dead but of the living.”

CaptainFM1:
And where in the post was their location stated? You are too fast to conclude what you have little or no information about.

I have to leave you to it now.

Funny guy, it is written clearly - "Nigerian siblings".
So if you read "American siblings" do you think maybe they're in Kenya? Funny guy

CaptainFM1:
I don't know them, so I can't really conclude how they look when they were young (Darker or Lighter back then, only them can say). But one thing is valid. Camera/picture quality has improved over the years.

And if you go back to my message, the word I used is "may"!

SMHFU!

Simple, if you live in the tropics, like Nigeria, your face MUST get darker as you get older, unless bleaching or you never go out in the sun!

CaptainFM1:
It may just be picture quality. Cameras have evolved over the years. You can't compare pictures taken with Kodak cylinder film with Digital/AI enhanced camera.

Meaning what? Kodak camera would have made them darker.
If you live in the tropics you should get darker as you get older, unless bleaching

I just love this

sonmvayina:
Where did you get the idea that Satan is bad?
See Isaiah 45:7 for more clarification.

Satan here is a synonym for evil. Do you agree that evil is bad? If so you get the idea. Feel free to give it whatever name u wish!

MaxInDHouse:
Why not start from the beginning?

Why allow Satan from the beginning?

Why allow marriage from the beginning ?
Why allow lions to eat lambs from beginning?

MaxInDHouse:
Sebi you have studied it why can't you explain for us?
A competent Bible scholar is talking you people will just jump in and start arguing blindly.

God permitted Satan because it will not make sense to destroy him without due process.

That's the simple answer!

Where and when exactly did God tell you that. "Due process" as mandated by who and where?

You asked why the change from duality, Mathew 22 tells you they'd no longer marry. Why the change??
You JW believe Lion will lie with lamb, why the change? Why wasn’t it like that from the beginning, like you asked?

MaxInDHouse:
Madam we weren't talking about animals jọọ it's good and evil which your God permitted but you said good can't be without evil to counterbalance it.

So how come God will change things and no longer counterbalance it again?

Why not do that from the onset?

Go and study the words of Christ in Mathew 22.
Therein lies your answer

MaxInDHouse:
Don't get provoked now woman.

How will it work in the next system if there is no evil to counterbalance good?

Oga, are you.paying attention at all sir? There'd be no dualities. As Christ said, they'd be neither male nor female. Even if there were it would no longer be God's laws. This dualistic system would be abolished! - hence all animals will coexist,, no more preys and creditors, etc

MaxInDHouse:
You said good can't exist without evil o!

So going back to the question:

Why did your God allow evil in the first place?

Stop talking foolish
glGood can't exist without evil in THIS system!
Even has to exist to counterbalance good

MaxInDHouse:
This is your comment:



Please do you believe this statement in the Bible:

For evil men will be done away with, But those hoping in Jehovah will possess the earth.  Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more; You will look at where they were, And they will not be there. But the meek will possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace. Psalms 37:9-11

Is it possible or God is lying?

(I modified FTC comment. See it below)

Of course! God would abolish this system of dualities. Even right now in heaven there are no dualities - hence Christ said they'lre neither male nor female. Even the voice in your head will be one instead of two

* FTC comment:
Good and evil. Mention one instance in nature where there is singularity. Right can't exist without left, up can't exist without down, etc. Bad Devil is necessary because good God exists.
God made this a system of dualities. You can't have singularity. Even matter has antimatter. He assigned Himself the position of good. To obey His law of this system there has to be a counterbalancing bad!

MaxInDHouse:
So you are a CHRISTIAN?

Oya Mr Christian answer the same question.

Why has God refused to destroy Satan all these while?

Wow! So you've really not been reading mine, you've only been interested in saying yours! I've answered it a million times. I am FTC of this thread. Go to that first comment. That's the answer!

MaxInDHouse:
So you are still coming back yet you said it's "NONSENSE"

I have a good heart. I'm a Christian. I can't abandon a soul just because he's constantly talking pure nonsense

MaxInDHouse:
You've said this countless times yet you keep coming back!

Can you please point out where I said wasn't coming back

MaxInDHouse:
The highlighted is your PERSONAL opinion!

Satan needs to be disgraced before his extermination.

If an employee in your own company say you are not capable of managing the company in the presence of all the staff sacking such an employee is not the wise thing to do because he didn't say you are not the owner rather you are not fit enough to manage the company.

So the wisest thing to do is place him as head of a branch under close watch and give him a free hand to manage the branch while you continue managing the entire company.

It's until he fails woefully that sacking him can make sense not instantly that is tantamount to abuse of power.


The true God will never abuse His power!

Hehehe.. hahahaha! If anybody is reading this:
PLEASE HAVE YOU EVER HEARD SUCH CONVOLUTED NONSENSE??!!
Ciao my friend, at least you gave me a good laugh😂. Take good care

MaxInDHouse:
You are trying to be funny, right?

I said a God can dismantle what he made (created) if it's not meeting up to expectation.
So is it man who created Satan?

Soo, God can dismantle what man created but man can't... Tells you who is really God.
Once again, why waiting to get rid of Satan?
Answer: no answer that makes any sense.

Stop arguing nonsense. In our world of dualities bad Satan must exist to counterballance good God

MaxInDHouse:
YES! It's the translators that are using the upper and lower case to differentiate the God of their choice but you can try to pronounce them differently if that is possible:

GOD
God
God

If you think there is difference then there should be difference in pronunciation

Satan will surely be dismantled but their is what everyone knows as due process that's what the true God wants to do.
All descendants of Adam must know the reason why no human is capable of being ruler over his fellow man and Satan needs to be there when obedient mankind will be given everlasting life.
That's how to defeat your enemy completely without being a bully!

The capital God is reserved for the creator. Stop arguing nonsense.
Why wait to dismantle him and why can't man do 8t since he is God. And what do you mean the one true God? I thought man is God
