Education › Re: 2025 UTME: JAMB Plans Remedial Measures Amid Review Calls by danvon(m): 2:18pm On May 13, 2025
PlasmaTV:
Shut up jare. Students with A's and B's in their WAEC failed and you are saying they should not disturb us.

Someone that I know got 300+ in the mock exam and scored 156 or so in the actual exam. Is that possible?

Btw, are you a Tinubu supporter? Cos you think like you've over eaten agbado.
But you should know people cheat in WAEC all the time. Last year i saw at least 20 people who scored below 200 in Jamb but got A's in their WAEC, how is that not result of cheating?

Nigeria education system is corrupt, those who cheat are rewarded. If Jamb allow these cheaters to move forward, Jamb will officially shut down.

To be fair she is not that pretty, her looks are very average if not outright disgusting, she looks like a skeleton - very flat and skinny.

But at the end of the day, it is money that makes a woman attractive not looks and she was born in money so i get the hype.

Funny i just finished reading Napoleon the Little today.

But Omatseye is wrong about Napoleon III, despite overthrowing the democracy he was never overthrown by the French people, he was actually well respected by the French, he was responsible for the modernization of France, his only error was being baited into a war with Germany by Bismarck.

Inasmuch as Victor Hugo is a great writer, Victor Hugo seriously underestimated Napoleon III and he overestimated French people desire for freedom over a sense of security.

Politics is about connections not popularity

Do you know how many market leaders, church leaders, civil servants are behind APGA, there is a reason why they keep winning, even Peter Obi was governor under APGA.

Politics is offline not online and at the end of the day it is about personal interests.

APGA support will go a long way, 2023 was a surprise attack, nobody could have predicted the PDP crisis and Buhari currency madness everybody was shocked and trying to adjust accordingly, that is why Peter Obi had high votes. This time nobody would be caught unawares.

Pope Francis was born Jorge Mario Bergoglio on 17 December 1936[15] in Flores,[16] a neighbourhood of Buenos Aires.[15] He was the eldest[17] of the five children of Mario José Bergoglio and Regina María Sívori. Mario Bergoglio was an Italian immigrant and an accountant[18] from Piedmont.[19] Regina Sívori[20] was a housewife born in Buenos Aires to a family of northern Italian origin.

Joseph Alois Ratzinger was born on 16 April, Holy Saturday, 1927 at Schulstraße 11 at 8:30 in the morning in his parents' home in Marktl, Bavaria, Germany. He was baptised the same day. He was the third and youngest child of Joseph Ratzinger Sr., a police officer, and Maria Ratzinger (née Peintner); his grand-uncle was the German priest-politician Georg Ratzinger. His mother's family was originally from South Tyrol (now in Italy)

John Paul II was the first non-Italian pope since Adrian VI in the 16th century, as well as the third-longest-serving pope in history after Pius IX and St. Peter.

Politics › Re: African Trad Religion Was Largely Abandoned Cos It Couldn't Save Africans by danvon(m): 8:52am On May 08, 2025
Rossikk:
I'VE READ SO MUCH GARBAGE ON THIS THREAD.

Everybody is WRONG.

The ONLY REASON Nigerians/Africans abandoned their traditional religion was because the colonialists seized NOT just the land, but the resources and riches of the land.

Access to those resources became dependent on your getting a British-style education in one of their wretched 'missionary schools', become a clerk, typist or whatever. A COLONIAL JOB.

(In areas where Islam was prevalent, they made no such demands to abandon Islam.)

Now to gain ADMITTANCE into those ''missionary schools'', you had to renounce your traditional religion, adopt christianity, get baptised, and get an English name, like John, 'Henry', or 'Jonathan'.

So all the chiefs and great traditional leaders began sending their wards to the missionary schools, and those later became powerful leaders who were christian, and who entrenched the new belief systems across their regions. Guys like Samuel Ajayi Crowther and co.

One thing you people need to realise is that Nigerians have been aware of christianity since at least the 1400s.

The Benin Empire had extensive trade relations with Europe, especially Portugal, with whom she exchanged ambassadors in the 1500s.

Yes, there actually was an Embassy of the Benin Empire in Lisbon, Portugal, in the 1500s, staffed by Benin bureaucrats, and an ambassador.

King Alfonso in the early 1500s had tried severally to get Oba Esigie to allow the establishment of churches in the Benin kingdom.

These overtures were bluntly rejected by the Oba, who only allowed the establishment of one or two churches in the kingdom. And no more.

And so it remained for many centuries, until 1897, when the British invaded, bombarded, burnt down and looted the great city of its treasures, like the pack of savage vandals they are, and today display their loot shamelessly in their 'museums'.

SO THIS WHOLE GARBAGE THAT ''Oh, it was because Africans saw that their gods did not work'' etc etc is just that , PURE GARBAGE.

It was ECONOMIC BLACKMAIL BY COLONIAL INVADERS WHO PREDICATED INDIVIDUAL SUCCESS UPON ABANDONMENT OF AFRICAN RELIGION, that forced them to do so.

Ancient Nigerians always saw the christian story as BULLCRAP.

The entire story made no sense to them. They laughed it off as the story of children.

They stopped laughing when the 'holy' christian guns by colonial thieves pointed at them.

If Africans abandoned religions because of military defeat or setbacks, why do the descendants of slaves practice their Yoruba religions till today in Brazil, Cuba, Trinidad and elsewhere?

Why didn't they say ''Oh well our African gods did not save us from being enslaved, so let us run and accept the 'white man Jesus' as our ''personal lord and saviour''?

NONSENSE.

ECONOMIC BLACKMAIL is the answer.

Here's what would have happened if the British had not IMPOSED Christianity on Nigerians.

They would have handed over to an educated leadership practicing a modernised version of TRADITIONAL RELIGION, just like JAPAN is doing today.

Japan's religion is Shintoism.

There is very little difference between Shintoism and African Traditional Religion.

In Japan there are over 200,000 public shrines, many built and maintained by the govt.

When a Japanese man buys a car, he takes it to a shrine where the traditional priest pours a strange concoction over the car, to guarantee safe journeys.

The Japanese simply replaced blood sacrifice with sacrifice of food, flowers, etc. They upgraded with the times.

THAT IS WHAT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN NIGERIA, if the British were not ASSHOLES.

By now we should have BEAUTIFUL SHRINES AND TEMPLES to our various orishas and to the Most High.

Shrine in Osaka, Japan

It seems like FG has been tapped to release this terrorist because i don't understand why the prosecution are acting so stupid...

- Argue about his allegation that the militarty tried to kill him
- Argue about his broadcast to burn Lagos
- Argue about his Fulani Herdsmen allegations and ask him to provide evidence
- Argue about his dual citizenship and question his right to interfere in Nigeria
- He has already admitted to illegal broadcast
- Argue about his claim that Buhari is dead and a clone

And why are they putting too much faith on a single witness that can be bribed or threatened into submission?

Unless this is a strategy, the prosecution acting unserious so unserious i conclude they are trying to release him.

This is like the O.J Simpson trial, where a very incompetent prosecution allowed a murderer to get free.

One day i bought rat gum (the black one) and set in the entrance of my bathroom, i even thought it didnt work until i heard the sound of something trying to escape.

Sweet dreams since then.

Botragelad:
This deserves proper scrutiny. Why is there a fundraising campaign for a guy who brutally stabbed someone to death in cold blood?

What’s striking is that this fundraising happened before the backlash against the fundraiser for the white woman who used a racial slur. So why are people outraged over her case but silent about this black murderer, whose victim was white?

Is this not a blatant double standard?

God1000 there's your comment hours ago on the other thread. Do you care to condemn this guy's action and the whole fundraising thing as racism?
Why's he being rewarded for stabbing a guy to death?
I don't think the blacks started it, he did the crime before the white woman but they only started funding him after seeing the funding the white woman got.
