omojeesu: There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. - Galatians 3:28 If you like keep worshipping Netanyahu and condoning his policies towards the Palestinians just know that one day he will have to give account for all the Palestinian blood he has shed. You say Israel is special to God but did God tell them to use sniper fire to shoot unarmed protesters? Or is Palestinian blood not as important to Jesus? Abi Jesus didn't also die for them also? |

omojeesu: But God is not a God of injustice. In fact throughout the bible, it says that righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne. So bia, God is not a respecter of persons whether you are Jewish or gentile. |

odigbosky: Hahahaha, Arabs in Israeli society are treated as second class citizens and Arabs in Palestinian territories (West Bank and Gaza) are really oppressed by the Israeli army. If you know what this people go through you would understand what this people are going through. |

Well the first thing Erdogan can do is to deny the Israelis use of Turkish airspace which they use to conduct military raids and threaten the Americans to remove there base from Turkey. That will send a message. |

DoTheNeedful: But israel is occupying the West bank also. In fact there are approx. 600,000 Israelis living in the West bank with the Israeli military backing them while more and more expansion is approved by the Israeli legislature while the Palestinians are being squeezed in more and more. 1 Like |

omojeesu: But Hamas is just a small part of the equation. In fact they are a small part of the Palestinian people but the Israeli govt use them as the boogeyman: an excuse to suppress the Palestinians. If you know what Arabs face in Israel or what they face in Palestinian territory you won't talk. It's like apartheid in South Africa. Israeli soldiers and Israeli citizens occupy Palestinian territory (outside Israeli borders) and impose apartheid rule while living the Palestinians helpless and without rights now tell me who the aggressor and the aggrieved is. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_and_the_apartheid_analogy 1 Like |

omojeesu: But the other side believe that their God also have it to them. So what do you say That? WHAT do you also say to the Palestinian Christians and muslims ugh? What do you tell them? That they are inferior and that they don't deserve to have basic human rights and that they deserve to live under brutal oppression by the Israeli army who shoot at them with sniper fire whenever they protest? Do you think God is like man who is partial and biased? Don't you know that God is also a God of justice and that he is no respecter of persons?

idrisolayiwo: Police shoukd be accountable to the communities they serve and not to Abuja. The only thing the Fed govt could do is to help with training and funding of the police force through a security fund allocation it gives to states and a national police academy. That should be all. The people in the community should be allowed to vote in the police chief (and even there judges) that way the police is more accountable to the people not the Fed govt. Ifthis happened you would hardly hear of police bribes because it would be difficult for you to extort your neighborfor bribes when your kids both play together in school. Also, the police force that is drawn from the community would be more invested in protecting their community from thieves and outside invaders as opposed to some underpaid police recruit who has no ties to the local community. It's this simple my brother. |

madridguy: Big time my brother. Almost all of Nigeria's problems can be traced from his regime to now. He is really the first person to centralize power and turn this country from a burgeoning republic yo a big mess that it is today. |

madridguy: Recruiting more soldiers is not the answer. What they should do is what we should have done years ago after we switched to democracy and scrap the federal police model and live policing to local communities just like the British did. This was an effective model for a country with a large population until Aguiyi Ironsi changed all that and centralized policing in the hands of the Fed govt Its no wonder we have a problem we are having so many security issues in this country. 2 Likes |

Travel / Re: Why Are The Four Other Seaports In Nigeria Abandoned? by davidif: 2:56am On May 18, 2018 |
laudate: Like i said earlier, maybe the ports are too shallow or maybe they don't have an adequate transportation system to move the cargo from the dock to the final destination. |

laudate: What in goodness name is Intels? I do not know what that is. Also, to answer your question, maybe the ports are too shallow to allow bigger ships to dock, after all who wants to crash their ship into a shallow water port? Besides, what if those ports don't have adequate equipment for massive unloading operations. Unloading a ship could be a very massive undertaking if you don't know. Then after the unloading, you need the to be able to transport those goods to their final destination either via rail network or massive trailers which those other ports don't have. |

zlantanfan: You will leave?? Hahahaha, you and i both know that you are lying just to win an arguement. Either way, that's your choice. The fact that you will "leave" just as you claim does not mean that others are going to leave? So don't tell anyone what to do especially if you have not walked a mile in their shoes. |

Politics / Re: Senate Passes Business Reform Bill by davidif: 4:45pm On May 17, 2018 |
oluwaahmed: Taxes are part of life o. As long as the taxes are collected once that's what should matter. WHAT THE Fed govt should do is eliminate Fed taxes for 5 years for new companies then after, they can start paying at the usual rate. They should also eliminate either the local govt tax or community tax. Only one should remain and it should be based on property value and not on revenue. In other words, if I own land or property that I use for my business then I pay taxes on it. Finally, the tax rate on small businesses from the state and the federal level should be small and reasonable so as not to hamper their growth. For example, one single tax bill of 16% of revenue where some go to Abuja, 1 Like |
