Some people are just too zombified to post anything reasonable.
He accused someone, you ask for a simple evidence, he started asking question instead of presenting the evidence.

Someone needs to open a new forum for zombies and call it zombiland cheesy
Bro you got it good,this guys keep tarnishing Atiku's image with negative press n no iota of evidence to prove it, this convinces me more than ever that there is something this people desperately don't want Atiku in leadership n whatever it is, it's certainly not for the benefit of the nation but there's only.
Celebrities › Re: Juliet Ibrahim Talks About Her Divorce From Kwadwo Safo, Ex Husband by Deepthoughts: 4:18pm On Aug 14, 2019
needful:
And u think is all the married men that actively take care of their women. I just wish ur type of a man will come and live in the state. U will watch ur wife Bleep and over Bleep another man and the least u will do is just to walk out and she wont even noticed ur aren't around honestly. And before u look back, she is happily married to another man. I sincerely pity naija women for they have suffered in the hands of u cheaters
I didn't say all the married men do,I was just stating a fact I know,most men cheat, it's only when one is caught that it becomes a public issue, married women equally cheats but I still insist that the woman always stand to lose more in a marriage break up especially here in Africa,but if I were to be in the states and my wife choose to be a LovePeddler I'm not goingi to kill nobody but get her fast out of my life n let each of us bear our cross, I'm not conversant with the marriage laws in US but I have heard stories about having to share properties during divorce perhaps that's why the men there seems to be so scared but I'm sure they are not really faithful either,if you are a woman n feels going out to Bleep any man just to get at your man for cheating will serve you well,then go on you will rip whatever is the consequence n if you are a man,try to be faithful but if you must cheat, respect your wife do it secretly n take good precautions knowing that when you are caught it ain't gonna be funny.

Nice Response there!

Besides, What Effort has Maraji or what is she called, made to sample other ways or scriptures before she come to conclusion that other ways are not the way or "wrong". i.e. you cannot say "Americans are better than Europeans if you have related with the two nations."
The issue is, every religion Islam inclusive teaches the same idea of it been the only right way,so maraji was not wrong after all.

Gistring:
Juliet Ibrahim appealed to women to quit their 'unwholesome marriages' as she opened up on her divorce during her book launch in Ghana.

The Ghanaian actress admonished the public on not judging people who want to end their marriages as she told Citi News that hers left her in a dark place where she was miserable.

”People have had their own perception about what led to my divorce.I have sat down for many years and have had to deal with the pain and insults from the public who had no clue what I went through as a person during that period and how it affected me.

“The depression and all that happened. All I will say is you should never judge someone who wants to come out of a marriage. Because sometimes it is better to come out of it than to stay in it. For your own sanity and mental stability it us always good to take a bold decision for yourself. For your kids, if there are kids involved take a bold decision,” she said.

Juliet Ibrahim had before now revealed that her marriage was a mistake which shouldn't have happened while pointing out that her ex-husband's family was never in support of it. She reportedly married Kwadwo Safo in 2010, after she got pregnant for him in the course of their friendship. They were however granted divorce in June 2014, after he allegedly cheated on her.

All this women crying cheating all over the place,my advice is this,if your man truly loves you, respect you,n takes good care of you n the family be careful not to loss him because of cheating,men have sex with women not necessarily because they love such women but just to relieve the pressure of lust,now if anyone ask what about women,mind you the man marry n cater for the woman n not the other way around,now if the woman choose to go on the slightest excuse the man can always get another woman but the woman will end up with stories n Lamentations,any woman that equates herself with men n decide to engage her man in competition with always end up losing,I don't pretend n I Know as a man that very very few men can truly claim 100% faithfulness to their partners but the good part is almost all men that cheat does so secretly out of respect for their women n with the consciousness of their families safety by taking precautions,I have one principle in life and it has helped me a lot i.e In every situation always think first of what you stand to gain or loss before taking any action.I don't expect everyone to agree with me though.

kahal29:
Sen. Walid Jibrin, the Chairman, Board of Trustees (BOT), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has urged Nigerians to embrace the establishment of Rural Grazing Areas (RUGA) programme of the Federal Government.

Jibrin told newsmen at his Nasarawa country home on Tuesday in Nasarawa State that the proposed settlement policy for herdsmen would promote peace and security in the country.

He also explained that the programme would boost food security and improve on the health and standard of living of rural communities.

Jibrin, who is also the Sarkin (leader) of Fulani in Nasarawa state, commended the federal government for introducing the RUGA programme in the country considering its importance.

“I am not in APC, I am a PDP chieftain. But when we talk of development and security, we should leave anything about politics, religion and tribe.

“Whoever is ruling in Nigeria, if he brings any programme that will do away with insecurity, killings.

“And will take care of the welfare of the people, I will go by that. My politics is not a do or die and I play politics without bitterness.

“That is why I am and we Fulani commends the Federal Government for introducing the RUGA project in the country.

“I and our tribe (Fulani) had embraced the programme. RUGA project include provision of hospitals, schools, water supply and electricity, among other facilities, which will have direct bearing on the lives of the herders.

“Apart from that, it will also tackle incessant farmers/herdsmen conflicts as well as boost food security in the country,” he said.

Jibrin also called on the Igbo and Yoruba ethnic groups to embrace the programme in the interest of national development.

“About 12 states in the North have already embraced it and has already started the project including Nasarawa State.

“So, I am calling on the Southerners, the Igbos, the Yorubas, among others, to embrace it, evenhough the project is not compulsory.

“The project will keep the herdsmen one, safe and will improve on their welfare as some states in the South East have already promised to donate land for the project,” he noted.

He therefore called on all herdsmen and other Nigerians to shun armed robbery, kidnapping and other negative tendencies in the interest of peace and development.

The PDP BOT chairman also urged Nigerians to live peacefully irrespective of their ethnic, religious and political affiliation for develoment to reign. (NAN)

The RUGA idea is not bad provided it remains in the north n in states voluntarily interested,any attempt by whatsoever guise to impose it on other states forcefully will just be a recipe for disaster.
Politics › Re: Borno Gov Donates Sambisa Forest For RUGA by Deepthoughts: 9:36am On Aug 14, 2019
ovadozes:
Borno State Governor, Professor Babagana Umara, has donated some parts of the enclave of the Boko Haram, Sambisa forest, for the controversial Rural Grazing Area (RUGA) programme.

The governor also mobilised the Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC), Agro Rangers and hunters to secure the large expanse of the forest and make it safe for the scheme.

The allocated area (forest) covers six council areas of Konduga, Bama, Gwoza, Chibok, Damboa and Askira/Uba.

The governor made the decision public last Monday when he hosted the Shehu of Borno, Alhaji Garbai El-Kanemi, who paid him Sallah homage.


He said the deployment of agro rangers, vigilantes and hunters are to protect farmers and herders in their respective communities.

Umara told the monarch that the state government would also deploy an Emergency Rapid Response Team (ERRT), comprising of security personnel, to protect commuters and rural dwellers against Boko Haram insurgents and bandits.

According to the governor, “This administration is determined to strengthen the security architecture to encourage farming and herding activities across the state.


“We’re also distributing 80 patrol vehicles to the response team so that farmers, herders and commuters could move as well as travel within a radius of 30-40 kilometres of Maiduguri metropolis.”

Umaru said the security response team, comprises 500 troops and hunters that know the terrain of the forest.

On RUGA implementation, he said: “About 75 trained agro rangers and 300 hunters will also be mobilised next week to enable farmers cultivate their farmlands that were prevented by terrorists’ activities.


“The state government is determined to address the root causes of insurgency through improved security; fight against drug abuse and enhance food security with increased job creation among unemployed youths.”

He revealed that the state government had also embarked on vegetation and bush clearance of 187-kilometre Maiduguri-Damboa-Biu road, noting that the exercise would ensure safety of travelers and motorists to ease movements of goods and services in the state.

The governor also directed the immediate demolition of illegal structures in the metropolis, adding that the structures are suspected to be used by prostitutes and illicit drug dealers, and must be checked to sanitise the state capital.


In his response, the monarch, who commended the governor, called for an effective security measures along with the demolition of illegal hotels in Maiduguri.

Politics › Re: Non-provision Of Foreign Exchange: “leave CBN Alone” — Moghalu Tells Buhari by Deepthoughts: 8:52am On Aug 14, 2019
Priscy01:
Kingsley Moughalu, a former deputy governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has faulted President Buhari's directive on non-provision of foreign exchange for food importation.

Recall that President Buhari while hosting APC Governors at his hometown in Daura, said his directive to the CBN to starve food importation of foreign exchange stemmed from the steady improvement in agricultural production and attainment of full food security.

However the former Presidential candidate of the Young Progressives Party (YPP) rubbished President Buhari's order and further pointed out that the CBN is an independent body which should be left alone to discharge its functions, Igbere TV reports.

Moughlau stated that the political interference in CBN's economic policies leads to poverty and also weakens institutions.

He tweeted;
“Is @cenbank now a ministry to be “directed” by President @MBuhari ? Article 1(3) of the CBN Act 2007 states ‘In order to facilitate the achievement of its mandate under this Act…the Bank shall be an independent body in the discharge of its functions.

“The issue here isn’t whether or not CBN should allow access to forex for food imports. It is about whether such an economic policy of a central bank should be imposed by a political authority. A major reason for our poverty, instability and weak economy is weak institutions.

“Our marketplace should be regulated and guided in a rational manner that creates a level playing field. Our economy will not be saved by Ad Hoc political decisions like this, handed down by the very institutions that should be shielded from the whim and caprice of politicians.

“Nigeria’s entire economy appears to have been sub-contracted to our central bank, including industrial and trade policy. In the process the economy has fared poorly and the Bank has lost its independence. This is sad!

“@NGRPresident should leave @cenbank alone to discharge its mandate independently within the ambit of the CBN Act, and stop “directing” it. @cenbank should on its part assertive its independence (assuming it actually believes it should be independent, but the Act says so, clearly!”

Buhari is just a delusional dullard that falsely thinks he knows it all n thus keep wallowing in his folly of self righteousness, unfortunately his band of zombie supporters keep cheering him on causing him to stagger from one goof to the other,to buhari anything he doesn't understand is indescipline n corruption that can only be corrected by order n command, it's really a pity that Nigeria has to end up with a character like buhari in leadership due sentiments.

A 22-year-old Indian man, apparently unhappy he didn’t receive a new Jaguar from his parents, pushed his brand-new BMW birthday-gift into a nearby river.

Police said the man, identified only as Akash, allegedly drove the vehicle to the bank of the river and let it slide into the water.

Police said in a statement that :



No charges have been field against Akash, who they claim has a mental deficiency and is undergoing treatment.

According to the local news, BMWs cost around 3.5m rupees (about the equivalent of $49,000 in India) while Jaguars go for 4-5m rupees ( about $60,000).

It's not going to happen that both parties present igbo candidates for president. It would even be impossible for either PDP or APC to present an igbo candidates. The igbos don't have much political capital at the moment. They don't have one political figure they can unify under, not even 10. They don't have a discernable political agenda. Some want Biafra, some want president, others want political appointments ,others still want physical and economic developments. Then worse still, there is voter apathy in the south east. So the voting strength in the East is poor, even when compared to the south south.

The presidency was not given to the yorubas on a platter of gold. They have been fighting for it from the time of Awolowo culminating in the June 12 impasse. The north was presented with no choice but to concede power to the south west. Where is the igbo struggle for power. After the January 1966 coup and take over by general ironsi, we have not seen a strong igbo bid for power - both politically or otherwise.
I agree with you totally but nothing is impossible,it only requires hard work, with the characters in igbo land today it's surely an uphill task though.

The Igbo candidates in each party can lobby their party's hierrachies to support them but it will be very difficult to force all parties to present only Igbo candidates in any Election.


In 1999, the PDP which had 'Zoning' in it's constitution zoned it's ticket to the SOUTH (not S/West in particular), accordingly the following presidential aspirants slugged it out in the 1999 PDP Jos Convention,

Gen Olusegun Obasanjo
Dr Alex Ekueme
Chief Jim Nwobodo
Dr Phillips Asiodu
Chief Don Etiebet
Graham-Douglass.

The APP and AD went to an alliance such that the AD produced Olu Falae as the Presidential candidate and APP produced Mallam Umaru Shinkafi as the Vice presidential candidate.

Is that fair to the other regions who have the inalienable constitutional right to contest for power and are junketting across the country to lobby and create goodwill?

You mentioned that PMB is not sympathetic to the Ibo political plight; the question is have igbos ever been sympathetic to his own political plight since he started contesting?

2019 was supposed to be a North-North candidacy, can you explain why Moghalu and Durotoye also contested? I'm afraid to tell you that it is impossible to zone the 2023 candidacy of the major parties to the east; especially not the APC that they have serially rejected, demonized and ridiculed.

I hope you are igbo, then I will have hope that you guys are beginning to learn from your political blunders. The Yorubas had also made many political blunders in the past ( it was yoruba political blunder that gave us Abacha ), they learnt and made progress.

The question is how are these political blunders being corrected in order to give the south east more political relevance?
I'm not igbo but a Christian minority from the middle belt, well it's really up to the igbos identify n correct their political blunders n forge a common front,but for complete national healing, equity, fairness n federal character personally I would want a situation where both parties i.e Apc n pdp will both zone their candidacy to the SE to avoid further rancor n subsequently more division of the country along our fault lines.The igbos should have stood firmly for the north to complete their second tenure in 2011 after the Demise of yar'adua so that 2015 would have been theirs for taking but lack of political foresight made them to loss a good opportunity,when Apc was formed n the SE were invited to join,okorochas greed prevented the igbos from joining as strong unit under a concrete political arrangement,they didn't vote massively for pdp in 2015,they have remained in disarray since then,come 2023 it will be very difficult for Tinubu n his gang to concede to the SE n buhari doesn't look like someone interested in true national healing to be concern about the igbo political question n plight so it's either there igbos try n convince the nation to concede the presidency to them in 2023 or to go into alliance with the NE, NC n SS under a strong political arrangement as the SW n NW are very likely to be on the same side or to just resign to fate n wait for eternity.

Face the truth, without Oshiomhole support, Obaseki may find it difficult to get a return ticket under APC, his chances of contesting under another party may be high, but not APC. Oshiomhole would only need to dissolve and reconstitute the APC exco in Edo like was done in Ogun, and Obaseki would consequently be forced out of the party. If he wins reelection under another party, fine, but he would not be able to fly the APC ticket, that is my point. Obaseki is a wise man.
You are making it sounds as if is hi mole is a god, this is the same oshiomole that has been boasting of retiring political godfathers in edo only for him to now assume a political greedy god, Obasanjo once said nobody get to any political position without help,so oshiomole did nothing new by helping obaseki after all obaseki also worked for him,but if you think by this so call reconciliation obaseki will become oshiomole's stooge henceforth then you are dead wrong,by the way oshiomole n obaseki na real worwor United!.

ISWAP is the face of terrorism in North- East Nigeria.

They are more sophisticated than their sister group, Boko-haram. It is evident from thier modus operandi.

The group backed by ISIS are a big threat, Boko-Haram may be defeated, but ISWAP are not.

Dont forget that Buhari paid Al-Barnawi millions of Euros to free the Dapchi girls, yet he came out to say he didn't pay a dime.

ISWAP strength should not be underestimated, they even collect taxes from locals as form of protection from cattle rustlers in the Lake Chad Basin.

The fight against terrorism in the North East have just begun, if you know, you know!
Oga nothing like "Boko Haram may be defeated but iswap is more sophisticated", please don't use grammar to confuse things, Boko Haram n ISIS simply fused together to form ISWAP,I see you are only trying to claim buhari has defeated Boko Haram n is now only fighting isis, this is how history is often twisted n recreated to give buhari undue credit,same way we were told buhari built all Nigeria's refineries,oil pipe lines n depots, buhari crushed the chadian incursion into Nigeria n was marching onto ndjamena before shagari stop him etc,but a check through history will prove otherwise,so Oga don't try to systematically reinforce failure abeg.

OH boy,the devil is really strong to have withstood all the stoning for years with out dying!,but I have a question,a convert from Islam one Abdullah Ba'akona once mentioned that the black stone houses five great idols,one in each corner then a giant one in the middle thus making the black stone the temple of the Devil hence the stoning,can anyone confirm or contradict that claim?
