How can a 23 year old woman just wake up and travel to Zanzibar for vacation alone?

Export and import Olosho runs, ofcourse. Abeg take am easy...no dey too ask, the right questions.

if missiles fired by Houthis rebels could penetrate SA's multi-billion dollar Patriot missiles defense systems, imagine what a direct confrontation with a formidable foe like Iran would be like. Decades of spending billions of dollars of their oil money on US defense equipments, all amounting to nothing. It is no surprise they aint picking Biden's calls.

Even Alaska was sold to USA by russi...

If not, Russia would have shared direct land borders with usa

Wrong! Russia would have shared land border with Canada, not usa. FYI, there's no land border between Alaska and mainland usa.

This may shock many Christians, but the word Hallelujah as in Revelation 19:1 means Praise be to Allah.

Yes, no one has been able to eliminate the name "ALLAH" from the originals of the Bible. For starters, the letter "Jah" is a latinized version of "Yah", as the letter "J" does not occur in Hebrew or Arabic language. Hebrew and Arabic are sister languages, when making exclamatory statements, they both start with the exclamation word "Yah". The Westerner on the other hands ends with an exclamation.

YA AKHI! (OH MY BROTHER!)
YA OMI! (OH MY MOTHER!)
Ya ALLAH! O Allah!


So Hallelujaaah! Is: "Ya Allalu, Ya Allalu"
Ya Allahu! Ya Allahu!
Ya Allahu! Ya Allahu!


To make words sound non-Jewish, the westerner , due to inferiority complex or perhaps to make the 'new' religion of christianity 'palatable' to westerners, have latinized jewish phonetics where ever they occur in the Bible, replacing "Y" with "J", and "W" with "V".

Yehuda changed to Judah
Yusuf changed to Joseph
Yunus changed to Jonah
Yeheshua changed to Joshua
Yehowa changed to Jehovah
Yehudi changed to Jewish

YHWH changed to JHVH

YHWH became Yahweh and JHVH became Jehovah! Jehovah Witnesses say that the Letters YHWH occur in the Hebrew Scriptures 6823 times, and it occurs with combination with the word "Elohim" 156 times in Genesis alone. This combination YHWH / ELOHIM has been consistently translated in the English Bible as "Lord God." Since the Jews did not articulate the word YHWH for centuries, and since the Chief Rabbis would not allow the unspeakable to be heard, they have forfeited the right to claim dogmatically how the word should sound. We have to seek the aid of the Arabic language to revive Hebrew, a language that had once died out. In every linguistic difficulty, recourse has to be made to the Arabic, a sister language, which has remained alive and viable.

Note the startling resemblance between the two languages; very often the same sounding words carry identical meaning in both:

HEBREW ARABIC ENGLISH

Shalom Salaam Peace

Yaum Yaum Day

Ikhud Ahad One

Elah Ilah God

Yahuwa Ya Huwa Oh he

YHWH, YaHuWa, Ya HuWa all means the very same thing; "Ya" is a vocative and an exclamatory particle in both Hebrew and Arabic, meaning Oh. Also notice the similarity of huwa, Huwa, and he in Hebrew, Arabic, and English. Together, they mean Oh He! So instead of YHWH ELOHIM, we now have:

Oh HE! ELOHIM. This is very close to Surah 112 in the Quran: "Say: He is Allah,"

The suffix "IM" of the word "ELOHIM" is a plural of respect in Hebrew. In Arabic and Hebrew, there are two types of plurals: one for numbers and the other for honor as in royal proclamations. Since the plural of honors is uncommon in the language of the European, he has confused these plurals to connote a plurality of God, hence his justification of the Doctrine of the Trinity.

El or Elah or Alah in Hebrew means God and this was His name in the northern kingdom of Israel when it separated into two kingdoms. EL also was known to be the God of Abraham. El is also the name of God that Jesus called upon on the cross "Eli", (Eli means my God). This means that El, Elah, Eloh, and ELOHIM are not distinctly different words. They all represent the single Arabic name Allah.

In the English Bible, "New and improved Edition," edited by Rev. C.I. Scofield, D.D., with his Bible Commentary in comment No. 1, the eight authors concur that:

"Elohim, (sometimes El or Elah), English form God, the first of the three primary names of Deity, is a uni-plural noun formed from EL = strength, or the strong one, and Allah,"

All the authors agreed that Allah is a name of God. However, in a later version with new authors, "The New Scofield Reference Bible." the name Allah was taken out. Western Christian scholars simply do not want any association with Allah, the God of Eastern Christians and Muslims.

There is no difficulty in understanding that in the languages of the world, every nation has given a distinctive name to God. Most of these names are attributive names, describing some aspect of God. But the proper name for God Almighty in the Semitic languages’ i.e. in the mother tongues of Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad (Peace be upon them all) is Allah. The name Allah exists in the Arabic Bible. The name Allah came from the lips of Jesus. The name Allah exists in the western world in "Hallelujah." In Revelation 19:1, John saw a vision, in which he heard the angles in the heaven singing alleluia. This vision is the same as the Islamic tradition that the angels are praising Allah all the time.

I can see that You need a little enlightenment on the events that led to the 1966 coup. The north has always had an outsized influence in Nigerian politics nationally. The British designed it that way because the northerners were easier to control due to their feudal and submissive political and cultural structure which was far less egalitarian and individualistic than that of the Igbos and Yorubas.

The northerners who were placed in all top government positions by the British at the time of independence always had a seething hatred and inferiority complex for the Igbo’s because of their industriousness and the fact the Igbos were coming to their land and succeeded more than their own native people. This led to northerners in government marginalizing the Igbos and preventing them from holding any meaningful government positions. It also led to the killing and persecution of Igbo People residing in the north by the local Fulani-Hausa people. [/s]

You can watch this 1960 interview by Ahmadu Bello, the premier of the northern region at the time, talking about the Igbos and making no effort to conceal the extreme hatred and prejudice his people feel for them


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_odAy4rVz8[s]

It also didn’t help that the civilian government at the time was plagued with rampant corruption and most development in Nigeria at the time was happening in the south west due the adept economic policies of Awolowo and other Yoruba leaders who had full control of that region at the time.

Now would you blame the Igbos or any other group for plotting a coup under these circumstances?

Baba. Nigeria has been a dysfunctional county from the very beginning. We are a group of people too diverse in our beliefs to ever coexist peacefully. The vast cultural, religious, educational and societal differences between the north and south should tell you we really have no business being one country with them but even if we must then we need to restructure the system to ensure each region is FULLY autonomous with a weak central government just for general administrative purposes. But we all know the Hausa-Fulani will never let that happen because of their ‘born to rule’ autocratic nature and all the affluence they enjoy under the current system.

Why you defend these people so much and hate the Igbos who have genuinely done nothing wrong is beyond me.

We will keep fighting to hold together a country comprised of a collection of peoples who genuinely don’t like each other. Then you wonder why Nigeria does not work. Oma se o.[/s]

To be fair to Ahmadu Bello, he was also restating the Igbo mandate to "conquer" others as was stated by Nnamdi Azikiwe in a speech, many years prior.

"It would appear that the God of Africa has created the Ibo nation to lead the
children of Africa from the bondage of the ages…The martial process of the Ibo
nation at all ages of human history has enabled them not only to conquer others
but also to adapt themselves to the role of preservers …The Ibo nation cannot
shrink its responsibility from its manifest destiny." - NNAMDI AZIKIWE .

Chief Obafemi Awolowo response: “It seemed clear to me that [Azikiwe’s] policy was to corrode the self-respect of
the Yoruba people as a group; to build up the Ibo as a ‘master-race'."

Keep fooling yourself into believing you can rewrite history with your sanctimony, just because your greedy power grab ambition got checkmated by the Hausa/fulanis. FYI, Igbos, hausa/fulanis, and yorubas are all culprits and hypocrites in this dirty game of political dominance.

shogsman:
You're foolish sir,which Chinese and iran station broadcast in Hausa.outside Nigeria and Chad plus some war ravaged small African countries no one knows what Hausa is

Another mumu in self denial. FYI, the following are links to some Int'l radio stations outside Africa that broadcast daily in Hausa:


1. China Hausa broadcast : http://hausa.cri.cn/index.htm

2. Radio Tehran (Iran) Hausa broadcast Service: https://parstoday.com/ha

3. Turkey Hausa broadcast: https://www.trt.net.tr/hausa/

4. Voice of America Hausa Service: https://www.voahausa.com/

5. BBC Hausa Service: https://www.bbc.com/hausa

6. Deutsche Welle (Germany) Radio Hausa Service: https://www.dw.com/ha/batutuwa/labarai/s-11605

7. Radio France Int'l Hausa broadcast service: https://www.rfi.fr/ha/


I have always maintained that an average 'illiterate' hausa/fulani cattle herder with his small radio is more politically savvy and intuned with world affairs, than the average 'educated' southerner. Keep underestimating your adversaries at your own peril. It is no wonder your so-called "struggle" has never amounted to anything, but chest beating and tomfoolery.

You the preacher is also backward in your thinking!

And your argument for that?

fineboynl:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fub-PNt-DXU

young student from india and philippine, germany and England debating about world peace at UN Assembly. way back 1954. why you all are here fighting each other. and backward in your thoughts and thinking. if only your forefathers where this intelligent. or your founding fathers where half this intelligent. things would have been more better for you all.

See this colomentality. what do you know about our founding fathers? I know you dont know much about the video, so Im gonna cut you some slack.

Those students were part of the 1954 student conference in the US. Students were invited from every country to debate on wide range of subjects. It wasnt a competition, but Nigerian students i.e our founding fathers performed outstandingly on wide range of international subjects. What you see are just 4 students given the limelight to debate at the UN Asssembly, thats all. That said, you can be the world's best debater with all the intelligence in this world, but if you lack the will to transform it into action, it doesn't mean shit.

I don’t believe anything from twitter
Twitter and lies

3sum among Married couples is even more common in US/Canada. People are more 'successful' in finding sex with "Couples seeking Man/Woman for group sex" than with 1-to1 casual sex encounters. It is a very sick world out here.

NiRfreak:
Many of them just can't help themselves. They bought the lie or feminism and think it's the recipe for feminine happiness and fulfillment even in marriage...But it's all a lie. Yu can't eat your cake and have it...
Even in advanced countries, men are shying away from marriage.A true feminist shouldn't care about marriage if feminism is what brings happiness. But they want to be married, to bring feminism into marital roles, thinking civilization prescribes that all men should come under the dictate of feminism. This is Africa. They quickly forget. That's why I say they are not wise. They can go abroad and do their gender equality shit, there's so much cover for them over there...but here...they are playing with frustration, hopelessness and loneliness.

Ma broda, even the married families are no where safe from their toxicity. Here abroad, they are in every fabric of the society. For the most part, so-called Feminism is less to do with women rights, but more to do with hatred for Men by women with past vendettas. Most are Divorcees or single moms or older single women who've never been married. Feministas are a cancer to the sacred institution of Marriage, especially among African families living abroad. Married couples need to always be mindful of them. The moment they start befriending that your good sweet loving wife/ fiancé at work ( which by the way they are very good at doing, and is often the case), your marriage and relationship is downhill from then onward. And when your marriage is broken, your indoctrinated ex-wife goes hunting for other people's marriages to destroy. Its why divorce rates are skyrocketing every year, and Men are apprehensive in getting married.
