HacheNoire:
His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) has always believed in free speech because he has exercised that right during his campaign against military rule.

He respects the opinion and criticisms of people if in accordance with the law and will never trample on the rights of Nigerians

The way he respected Sowore's right to free speech right?

The way he respected Dele Farotiimi's right to free speech right?

sirray001:
God instructed us to go into the world and said that will should procreate and multiply and fill the earth with children. So what is your problem with these people

In your book of fairy tales about Yahweh, the blood thirsty Jewish pagan mountain deity.

AMINDA:
Is the Southwest one? How comes Tinubu couldn't win Lagos and Osun and is now set to lose Oyo as well? Where will Tinubu's votes come from outside Yorubaland? He will have to outrightly rig to get any votes in the South, outside of Yorubaland.

We are set to witness rigging on a scale that has never been witnessed before.

LordReed:
This is the same person that wanted to chew my head off because I said Congress didn't declare it a war.

Generally, him head no quarrect at all, believe me.

basilico:
This should answer you

It doesn't answer his excellency LordReed.
The reason he is saying that is simply because they have circumvented congress approval. And only Congress can declare war.

MrEar:
A LION does not concern himself with the opinions of a sheep. If he does that, then he is not A LION.

Despite his horrible vocals, Davido has conquered the music industry in a way no other artist can, whether from a rich home or not.

He has won awards, sold out concert tickets, collaborated with famous artists that talented musicians can only dream of.

He is known globally and internationally. Davido himself, from head to toe, is a brand.

Time magazine included him as one of the most influential persons. At this point, he does not need to prove himself or his success to anyone.

Despite all of his achievements, numerous times, he gets triggered, loses his cool, displays an inferiority complex and feels the need to explain or publicize his success, all because of the "opinions of poor men pikin"

Like most celebrities, dead or alive, Davido is another crystal clear proof that indeed money (including fame) can NEVER buy true happiness.

For you to be happy, you need peace of mind, and whether you believe it or not, ONLY GOD can give you that.

BodePolScience:
A big pointer that Nigerians like to hype nonsense.

Egoat:
Never been a fan of this talentless boy.
Very loud and rude.

Haba. David is not without talent.

Normally when you are researching, you go through the articles Google shows you

It is while going through the articles you are learning.

Now chatgpt throws summaries at you, cutting out the learning loop

What makes it worse is that all ais can be gamed with spam articles where if enough people post the wrong thing, AI will take that as the answer.

I had a problem with an application that kept causing crashes on my pc. Chatgpt simply posted a rehash of the solutions that did not work. But going deeper into the search results, I found the solution. I had actually disabled gemini answers in my search results for this reason. It is a slippery slope and before you know it you have allowed a bot to take over your thinking

Sadly, future generations are going to be daft.

nairalanda1:
My idea....

Petrol must be sold at a profit to cover operating expenses, absorb product losses, and sustain the supply chain.

A nairalander's response

.


My idea continued...

Consumption subsidies on petroleum products are harmful to Nigeria because they drain public finances, encourage waste, and largely fail to help the poor

A nairalander's response



APC is a bad government, as they have failed to fight corruption and insecurity, and as such must be voted out of office...come 2027



Peter Obi is the answer to NIgeria's problems. My vote is for him



I did not vote for APC at all at all, nor did i vote for PDP at all at all,




I think that Nigeria needs to become an industrial country like China, UK and Germany



I believe that APC is not what Nigeria needs.




I think that DeepSight is a fine and upstanding young man



I believe that our nation should choose NDC come 2027



I voted for small parties from 2003,,onwards



I beleive that DeepSight is a great guy





See what I mean....

YOUR CONDITION HAS REARED ITS HEAD AGAIN

You will reap the fruits of your slander

You know your hands are full of b l o o d

GloriousGbola:
Good God almighty



Nairalanda1 is a certified snowflake!

He somehow completely missed that I was trolling him and deepsight.

Deepsight that hates tinubu with the fury of a thousand suns is now a tinubu supporter? Deepsight that every five minutes is calling me out and subbing me?

We can have intellectual arguments with subs about our blind spots. There no such thing as black and white - even with people history says are evil men

Anyways it's all good.

I must say you are a jolly good sport.

TV01:
Why does retaliation have to be purely in the form of economic sanctions? The Israelis know their situation is existential and will act accordingly. The UK government may feel they are delivering constituency pleasing hardball diplomacy, but Israel are waging war and have the concomitant mindset - that's the difference. A proud Brit, a patriot here and I wouldn't back the rabble the govern us against the Israelis.

How far? Miss me . I landed heavy gbas gbos on your head on another thread - got banned !


TV

Haba. Indeed I have missed thee and thy illogic and vainglory.

Find the post and repost with amendment of the insults

Israel is not waging war against Palestinians. It is conducting enslavement, apartheid and occupation.

My man deepsight did I miss anything

I used to listed to smooth fm and jimi disu 7 am to 8am on my drive to work

Basically they said we were kicking the can down the road. Well we have run our of road

The moment Buhari ended subsidy during the Saudi fracking war when they flooded the market to kill us fracking - it was obvious we would be in trouble when oil prices rose.

The conundrum was there. Low oil prices meant low income for Nigeria. So the trade off was already messed up. I had hoped at the time buhari knew what he was doing - but clearly he did not and now the bill has come due.

The only thing that is due is the bill for kwarapshin. And that is still write large and costing more than subsidy.

What sanctions can Israel place on the UK?

basilico:
Where is your evidence as a lawyer that he is a pdf?
As a lawyer I expect you to be factual.

So I defend him about covid vaccines ?

The evidence is all over the place and he has himself admitted it.

Samantha125:
Click within few minutes? And you wonder why divorce rates keep getting high?

By click I don't mean marry oh.
I mean quite often people tend to swiftly know if they will vibe at all or even be attracted.

Samantha125:
That's why nowadays the number of divorce rates is ridiculously high, you guys are no longer patient in wooing ladies and end up settling for the ones you're not compatible with just because they were readily available.

The world has changed. These days many women are pointlessly nasty to men who show too much of a soft side and often take them for a ride.

Men who have been around for a while understand things and don't waste their time.

The truth is what will click usually clicks within the first few minutes of meeting.

I have never defended a single pdf unlikebyiu people whose only interest is to repeat an unproven claim demanding we accept it as proof
I've written about Epstein more than anyone else on yhai forum

You defend Trump.
He is a PDF.
And a defender of PDFs.

basilico:
Yea right , they've survived. Bill the serial philanderer. Was caught by SS many times escaping WH in the dead of the night.
Hillary went after his accusers calling them " bimbo eruptions" .
I can't post what Bill is reported to have said about Hillary.

The Clinton's are political grifters whose marriage most likely survived because they stood to gain more if Hillary won the presidency.
His face at the 2016 debate when Trump is introduced women he had r*ped . Chilling is an understatement. Looks like the face of a cold blooded killer

Its just remarkable how you can say this and yet defend paedophiles.

SixSeven:
The gbajue supporters told us he is greater than Awo 🤣🤡 Yoruba ó ronu. You had opportunity to showcase your best to the world but you brought yourself so low that omoluabi concept is now something others are calling scam. Obasanjo did not know what day he was born but he told us his story of what his mom said. What do you expect when the head is rotten? The society will be perverse with heedlesness and moral corruption everywhere. Even if you go abroad, have you started noticing that other Africans abroad have started taking a jab at us? Something they never used to do. Now, they will scrutinize your credentials so much because APC has given us two presidents with education credential issues. Over time, your country has become a country where they will question you because you people have presidents with questionable credentials. These little things matter, it affects you masses more than you think. No be Tinubu go suffer that kain thin, na you ordinary Nigerians go take the hit

I have no problem with Tinubu anymore. The joke is not on him, the joke is on Nigeria as a society. A society that lacks integrity and explains away questionable things is making itself look like a clownish society. Tinubu is not the problem, it is the society that made it acceptable to lack integrity that is. In a normal society, it is APC as a party that would have screened out Tinubu, not the court. APC would have looked at who had better qualifications and moral compass as a party. There was once a country where Salisu Buhari had to resign for forgery of academic qualifications but today it doesn't matter because the electoral act did not say yadiyadiyada or the Constitution says this and that. Who do you think you are deceiving? What message are you passing to you children 🤡 It's not everything that is court or has to be written in the constitution. Some things are moral but what do I know? A whole SAN reminded us that the law is not moral and that's one of the first lessons I learned in law. Education is not enough, you can be educated but not learned, you can go to school but not schooled, you can come from a home but not raised properly and you can claim a lot of things but never be able to tell truth. Integrity is very expensive, all the money in the world cannot buy it.

Seun: Does the President have evidence that he went to school, or did he homeschool for primary and secondary school?

Babatunde Ogala: The president will answer your questions when you ask him.

When you say the truth in this country, you will begin to sound like a moralist, like a virgin, like a saint because we know what is true but it pains us when someone else is saying it and is not willing to participate in our lies. You don't look like you are normal anymore.

Very very well said. If only GloriousGbola and WizardofNG will awake their consciences.

MaxInDHouse:
A reputable man will never ever swallow his own words or obey you to come and abbreviate what he types because you made the demand.🥱

All this for your vainglory and validation. Enjoy.

MaxInDHouse:
So you think it's everyone that will not be proud of what they said like you shey?

Well let me see if he is a true Muslim because a real Muslim will never ever swallow his own words not even on the case of someone that has no repute!🥱

I am not asking him to swallow his words. He can abbreviate my moniker to spare me your vainglorious spam, thaz all.

LordReed:
Yes I agree. IRC there is speculation that a Black Sea flood is responsible for the flood myths from the middeeast which is why Mount Ararat is mentioned in the story.

Thats enough to put the matter to bed. The writer of Genesis could not have known how far the floods extended or the extent of the Earth.

LordReed:
If you check you'll see the fossils are OLDER than the formation of the mountains, which indicates the mountains were raised from sea beds.

As I hinted, I am aware of this explanation (I said I am aware of alternative explanations).
All the same. . . .

LordReed -

PS: Even if there was no global flood, there could have been regional floods at different places at different times. To my mind, it doesnt change much about the narrative or essential elements of the myths.

Is there evidence of regional floods? Yes.

LordReed:
Bro the only thing that they have in common is a water body that can flood. That is not evidence of a GLOBAL flood.

Well, it just seems pretty ubiquituous. Many myths have some forgotten small element of truth to them.

In addittion, fossilized sea shells and marine organisms have been discovered near the summits of major mountain ranges worldwide, including Mount Everest, the Andes, and the Alps - these are mountain ranges as far apart as Asia, Europe and Latin America. Although I am aware of alternative arguments explaining this, but just saying . . . all things considered I personally would not write off the likelihood of some forgotten cataclysm of that nature.

JimRohn:
Do you really consider DeepSight to be on the same intellectual level as MaxInDHouse or some of the other individuals I engage with here?

Because frankly, MaxInDHouse is among the most intelligent contributors on Nairaland. In contrast, DeepSight does not even qualify for consideration when I rate people based on intellect.

That is precisely why I refuse to bring myself down to his level — instead, I choose to engage with those whose reasoning and arguments are worth my time.

Pls can you edit my name out of this post. Consider it a favour pls. Maxindhouse keeps reposting a long list of old quotes praising him and its spam to me. You can abbreviate the name if you dont mind so i dont see the spam. Thx

LordReed:
Yeah I guess it is clear that you are willing to believe without evidence while I am not. There is no evidence of creation, garden of Eden, global flood, tower of Babel, etc. yet you believe no wonder you can believe a breast grew back with no evidence.

As per the flood, the preponderance of flood myths across a wide spectrum of peoples all over the world highly suggests some sort of event in the far past which over time became mythologized.

-----------

Kwayiva / Yoruba & Mande traditions (West African): Several regional traditions describe ancestral floods sent by ocean or sky deities (such as Olokun or supreme creator spirits) to reset human misbehaviour, forcing communities to seek refuge on mountain tops.

Sheuns:
Suya meat are cut thin. Thus the reason you think 1k of suya is more than 1k of raw beef. To get which is greater, you may need to weigh them.

TheGift:
1.Suya guys buy beef from their brothers at better rates
2. Suya guys are less exploitative
3. 1k suya just looks bigger than 1k raw meet, cos of how it is processed and spread and/or
4. Maybe the butcher cheated you

Meanwhile, is there still 1k meat in the market?

The only two rational answers so far.
Let me add that buying in bulk, you will get more than when you buy a very tiny amount such as 1k.

WesKiz:

JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH, WHAT IS THIS ? ? ?

LordReed:
As you know bro these are very fascinating to me and I quite agree that our brains are not seeing the entire picture nor can they which is why we have instruments to provide more information. However, I still don't see it as evidence our universe is simulated. So lemme ask why do you think it is evidence that it is?

BTW I couldn't make then spin in the opposite direction. Is there a method to it?

Oh there are methods. For me, I focus on the gap and try to see it in the opposite direction it originally appears. This method will usually flip it immediately after you have got the hang of it. But different illussions are easier or harder for different people.

If that doesnt work, try blinking rapidly a few times or shutting your eyes for about five seconds and looking again. Otherwise just keep looking and at a point from fatigue, your brain will flip it.

The reason this proves simulation is that it shows us that what is there is not necessarily what we see and that alone tells you that the reality we dwell in is not just fake-ish but can easily be changed like any computer program.
