I'm not digressing o...by the way what do you mean by the bolded?That that scripture is outdated?
The issue,friend, is what training entails for a child. Just like saying, if a good teacher teaches a child, he won't assimilate and that he/she would deliberately go and fail. The child would most likely fail if he/she wasn't taught or didn't understand.
Sure there'll be temptations but a proper training makes many of them a non-issue.For example, there are kids who will NEVER deliberately become armed robbers or hired killers. There is a reason it's easier to find terrorists amongst people trained in a certain way.
Many of us would have been cultists if not that we were shown the Truth early and we received grace too.
Evil communication corrupts good manners...and He that walks with the wise will be wise.

Lest I forget, sending you to the right schools, raising you in the right neighborhood,parents living by example,choice of the place of worship etc would greatly influence a child.

The stats is commonsensical na.

In the past, most Nigerians were honest.Was it because they were not capable of stealing or corrupt practices? No....but because it was a norm.A good name meant so much then.Parents instilled those values-Not a church ting.
Everything changed when making money took the place of spending quality time with family and leaving your children to be trained by people who care less about your kids...

Show me a trained child, who is a good ethical hacker who wants to be a yahoo boy?
Something would need to happen to his psyche for him to condescend.People want to be better.If the parents have been able to show their ward a more excellent way, THEY'D NOT DEPART FROM IT for a useless ignoble way of life.

No one said it's rocket science. That's why I reminded you that parents are caretakers and must get the map for each child. I also mentioned the spiritual side.



Summary,
A child who knows the difference between jollof beans and fresh faeces would NEVER opt for the latter.
As parents we need divine wisdom to train our children. We just can't give what we don't have.

Alohaa:
Omooo You’re digressing, no one is comparing children who will turn out fine and those who will not, and besides your stats are purely on assumptions not fact.
It is the Bible verse you cited I’m talking about.
While the text is true, It does not entirely apply in our current society,
You might train a child all you want, if he or she doesn’t want to learn, they will only pretend and ones they find themselves free, they do the most.
It’s not rocket science

Leave him,tribalism sure blindfolds.He never thought about that..

Omicron007:
Both president and VP should come from the south?

And iragbiji is part of Lagos? Instead of contributing constructively for others to learn from, this is all you can come up with?
So some true lagosians who tinubu usurped their properties from are not miffed? Continue

Alexis11:
Most people that hate Tinubu with passion can't even live in their own state but Lagos.

They have decided to put all the failures of their governors and their representatives on poor Tinubu lol

Funny.

Note the bolded.
Besides, if you leave 100 children without training, you can't get up to 20 children who will turn out right.
Whereas if 100 children are properly trained, you'll get about 90 who will turn out right.
The idea is train/mould up a child IN THE WAY you want him/her to go.Training entails alot, friend.
The spiritual slant is to arrest the unforeseen.

Alohaa:
So you’re saying every child misbehaving now probably doesn’t have a good parent?
Some children are left on their own and they turn out fine
Some others have the best care, and they end up becoming a nuisance...
So you haven’t seen kids behaving excellently well when they are at home,
But immediately they gain admission into the university they become something else...

The bolded is the most important.
"Foolishness abounds in the heart of a child but the rod of correction will drive it out"

Never underestimate the power of good/proper parenting.

Finally, and most importantly,The God factor is key because parents are caretakers but the children are God's and He can inspire them to eschew waywardness.

Alohaa:
There are people who don’t believe in God and the scriptures but they live a life of emulation
And there are those who believe both they live a wayward life
What is the correlation?
In our present society, it [b]only takes the Grace of God [/b]for a child to turn out good...
Not by the strictness of the parents
Or best parental care
Although these are necessary

God's word is forever settled, friend.
Can you compare a child trained and one left to himself/herself?
Every child is unique and for you to train him/her, you must understand that child. Most parents are blind spiritually and don't know more than feeding, flogging and school fees.
Imagine having a parent who will tell you what you are about to do, and what will befall you if you try it.
Nobody will tell you to adjust if you experience those things.
Children will respect those who know more than them.

Alohaa:
This passage is true but not entirely true in this new generation, you can train them in a monastery and they’ll end up worse. It just takes the Grace of God for a child to grow up right in this our current society..

jasper83:
Hmmm, if my memory isn't failing me. This guy has been fake since early 90's. 1991,1992, 1993 uptill his arrest then. I was in Jss classes then, he calls himself squadron leader wearing uniform around. We don't kuku know then as bloody civilians which camouflage is for which armed forces.

We all use to live around Ifako ijaye, Ogba axis of Lagos. In fact they live in Oyemekun Street, their rented apartment is opposite Alhaji oni-battery house. People should make thorough investigations, all the oldies in that neighbourhood no go all die finish them go still remember his face and story wella, he was a controversial figure since way back, nah this same military cajole impersonation scam and format.

His mum used to fry Akara around Yaya Abatan close to Dada Street all in Ifako Ijaye. He has a sister called Shade and an elder brother with a tribal mark. He has been faked and controversial right from early 90's. He was even silenced then and punished by the military for impersonation. Major newspapers published his story on a front page then.

So for donkey years I think he relocated from Lagos to a fresh state to still Perpetual this same scam. Then we were so small and naive so nobody heard of him again.


So when his face resurfaced during the end SARS wahala plus the stupid image laundering interview � he granted where he was busy arrogating to himself what he is not about how he was Abacha's boy blabla immediately my mind picked his face and I shouted that this same man is still alive doing this same dirty business after like 28 years disappearing from Lagos? He wants to play a mind game on Nigerians via social media and be part of Nigeria story by false, lol. What a pathological liar, smh.

I'm just pained I'm far away from home, lol hustling thousand of miles away. I would have looked for my childhood friends and associates. Somebody must still remember this fake guy story in the neighbourhood. Whenever I'm in Lagos I'll share this story with my mum and I know her memories won't fail her concerning this scammer. Also I know people of my neighbourhood watching or reading this guy story will be reminiscing this guy I swear. He is a long time con artist.

So what's the importance of this interview he granted 4years ago( on his 64th birthday) now?
Let's assume the story is true.Let's assume the value of $1 was N1000.

Did you or did you not embezzle during your 8years in office? Nigerians are not bothered about the "miracle money alert" but trust.

You lied about virtually everything. University Certificate, Age, State of Origin...haba

If you understand the fundamentals, you'll not be given to this narrative. I know you don't understand my last statement.
However, if you believe this narrative, why shouldn't we put anybody as our leader since everyone is bad?

oyatz:
It's amusing seeing Akeem, the petrol attendant who had adjusted the pump to cheat customers, Janet who is sleeping with professors to pass her exams, Haruna, the herdman who kills and brutalize farmers, Emeka who is selling fake Medicines, Mr Adekunle who hires mercenaries to write WAEC for his son, Mrs Edet who is a magistrate that loves collecting bribes to dispense 'judgement' , Ituen the Aye cultist who rapes and maim fellow students on Campus, Abubakar the Bandit, Gloria the operator of Baby Factory plus the big chief who killed a runs-girl for money ritual ,all coming online to scream that Nigeria is not working.

oyatz:
So if Tinubu drop out of the presidential race, Nigeria will automatically be piloted to greatness.








One man can NOT be the problem of Nigeria and one man can NOT make Nigeria great

Friend, one man can be a nation's problem and one man can be a solution thereby making it great.
Never underestimate the power of leadership.

oyatz:
I read the columnist's article to the end and here are my inferences;


The writer believes

1) Tinubu is a bad candidate.

2) Tinubu is responsible for the problems in Lagos State.

3)That Tinubu is the cause of the problems in Nigeria from 2015 till date.

After enumerating everything negative that will happen if Tinubu becomes the president, she didn't point out any solution , especially the candidate with the Midas' Touch that will solve the problems in Nigeria.

Somebody must become the president. Is that person free of all that this woman accussed Tinubu of.








In my own opinion, Abimbola Adelakun seems like someone who has a personal axe to grind with Tinubu.
It's better for her to start canvassing for her candidate, whose morality is at par with that of Angel Gabriel.

The solution is masked in the article unfortunately you didn't see it.
She's just saying, people shouldn't fall for Tinubu's spin doctors-An advice, if you ask me.

When solving a problem,one of the first things to do is identify the problem.In this case, Tinubu is one major cankerworm.
Besides, Nigeria doesn't need an Angel and Tinubu can't be trusted.His desperation made him endorse Buhari twice.
We have a lot of Nigerians across ethnic divides who can pilot this nation to greatness.
Talking about Tinubu is a no-no

GeniusVincent:
Forever relevant and indispensable..

You sef dey use biblehub.com?

Which one be redeem papa for kwara state? Thought na NCCF get papa....or is he referring to fellowship president?
D thing be like comedy skit abeg...Anyways groom no need bestman.
But you sure say you never fight the pastor for bus stop?

If the question was
"Can A Lady Give A Man ₦400,000 Just Like That & Not Ask For Anything In Return?"
Would people see it as an issue?

Well back to the original question
It's rare but VERY POSSIBLE...Just that many useless girls are used to giving their bodies in exchange for favour that's why they think a man can't help them without strings attached.

That's how one ungrateful orphan being helped by a rich kid(in a campus fellowship) by proxy was asking the courier to tell her helper to declare what he wants from her.
The rich kid had heard what happened and decided to help without being known.

Person dey pity you, dey pay your school fees , you think say na every man dey sleep with any kain girl?
If you don't need help politely reject it.

Summary,
When the man isn't ready for anything, most girls want to offer something.

Queeeeeen:
How? Explain the bolded

Part of the glory/pride of children are their parents. When you have a mother who is a public toilet, for example, the child reputation is affected.
If the kpokpogiri saga is true, how do you want the child to feel?
Summary,
When a parent misbehaves or acts dishonorably, the child is affected.

So sleeping around or following kpokpogiri isn't hurting your child?
Person wey hear am talk go think say dem understand the responsibility of a mother.

GreatTormentor:
I thank God for the life of the Vice President just like JESUS CHRIST, they will bring all kind of accusations to demean people that are greater than their great grandfathers and generations, I wish I am so criticized like the amiable undisputed incoming president of the federal republic of Nigeria, your excellency Professor Yemi Osibanjo, the performer and enigma of greatness and unparallel grace, your enemies will die for your sake to be at your peak, anyone that want to stop you will be in grave when you become president

No one says you shouldn't adore him but please Don't compare him with Jesus...or Have you ever seen Jesus lying or vying for political office? Maybe he is a saint in the Nigerian rotten political class but there's nothing about him that reminds one of Jesus...abeg

siofra:
When people get older, they draw closer to Jesus. So this is not just a 'woman thing'

No really...Truth is, no one can come to Jesus except the Father draws them.It's beyond "seeing it all" it's by grace.Many older than him still struggle with those vices though they hate the act.

E no wan marriage but she wan born children.
E dem call responsible mothers to come out, na dem go first come out.
See her mouth as I don born two.

Archbishop Thabo Makgoba placed his remains under an inscribed memorial stone before the high altar"

Burial ground don finish or space no dey outside the church?
Except the bolded means something else sha.

I know many will fall for these actors.
Even fake pastors decorate their churches to deceive people.
Seeing the second person walk towards the "pastor" I knew this was staged.

So 96years no try? It's like you no sabi the old man?
Abeg edit Aaron age he couldn't have died at 117.

siant:
Can you tell us the recommended age and the Bible verse? Why do you people refer to 70 years? What of the book of Isaiah that says a young shall die at 100?

Mind you, before you quickly point to Psalms 90:10, it doesn't recommend or mandate 70 year for anybody. That chapter was written by Moses, he was complaining to God in prayer about their plights and predicaments. Read it from verse 1 to the end. He was asking God, 'why are we dying at 70, if anybody make it to 80, it is full of all sorts of health challenges'?

Did you know what? Even Moses that wrote that book, died at 120, Aaron his brother died at 117, Joshua his successor, died at 110.
Abraham, Issac, Jacob all died above 100. It was those Kings, during kingship era, that used to die prematurely because they didn't follow God's commandments but the people live longer. For instance, Prophet Isaiah started his ministry during the reign of Ussaiah, and he witnessed the tenure of another 3 Kings. We don't Know his age when he started his ministry, but for him to ministered during the era of 4 consecutive Kings that reigned not less than 20 years each showed he must have been very old before he died. Isaiah 1:1

I watched a little about chi-square...I didn't know when I started laughing o.He tried but there's need to break everything down...Talking about "relationship" and "excel" etc makes it look like a mere interpretation and not teaching.

Nice job

My quick research also shows that this effort is even ongoing on Nairaland. There is a thread on Education section called

"Learn O'level And Undergrad Mathematics In Yoruba" where various STEM topics taught in some of these Nigeria languages such as Yoruba are being uploaded.

In think we have to encourage more of this. To excel technically in Africa, we have to go this way!

I didn't say yes, I said YES.

dvkot:
Myer

So its a man job in a marriage to make a woman successful, shame on you both

Girls generally look older than their male counterpart after adolescent-Marriage or no marriage.

There are few exceptions though..

For example can you compare a 35year single girl and a boy her age?
Childbirth surely has its impact.

Raychee:
Idk why married women always look older than their husbands. Not that it is a problem though but it is almost always the case. Is it childbirth? Or the excess makeup? Or stress?

JayFredo:
Oga I’m not here to argue bible with you, if you don’t know your bible go n read, so you don’t know all the sons/tribes of Jacob/Israel were slaves in Egypt become starting their annexation campaign. Please don’t mention me about bible again abeg

kikikiki...You are just throwing up stories you were told.If you understood that little piece, I'd have taken you serious. Even a primary school pupil knows the Egypt story you're talking about.
I threw that poser because you asked what else do you need to know.

Summary,
Never talk about what you don't know except you want to ask questions and honestly learn.

TMKsouth:
Yes I'm holding a subjective stance which is what matters most.

What's yours - an "objective" homophobic stance written by old, racist, unenlightened white men thousands of years ago?

Get real.

I see

What happened to the ten tribes of Israel distinct from Judah?

JayFredo:
Is they any other Jews apart from the ones in the Bibles I need to read about or don’t you know your bible. Jacob/Israel was the father of Joseph e went to Egypt became PM, went back get his family to Egypt, be slaves for 400yrs, Moses came rescue them from Egypt, became wanderers in wilderness for 40yrs, Moses die, Joshua take over invade other people, kill millions and claim the land and said it’s god promise land to them, or e get another story wey I no know

Kikikiki....very subjective stance.I'm not discussing opinions. If Tutu wasn't a clergyman, I'll excuse his ignorance. Homosexuality is a vice AND A SIN according to the Bible, which he claimed to believe and preach.

TMKsouth:
I'm not saying stealing is right - I'm saying the hypocrites who are here all day insulting gay people themselves live very evil lives.

And to be clear, I don't equate homosexuality with "vices" and "sins" because I'm speaking from personal experience - gay people are not evil. Desmond Tutu also knew that first hand because he birthed a lesbian daughter who ultimately responded to God's calling to also become a priest.

So you all need to stop talking about things you know nothing of - you've never even had a single decent conversation with a gay person but you're all over social media judging them and calling for their death.

You seem not to know the Jews.Just go and read up about them again. Cherry picking stories and comparing them with Fulanis gave you away.

JayFredo:
Hitler knew Jews where always interested in what wasn’t theirs, Jews are slaves everyone knows that, they’re land grabbers just like Fulani, even in the Bible that was how they invaded, massacred people in millions, stole their land and named it the promise land . Forever Jews are wanderers like how they roam the wilderness for 40yrs, once power shift from the west, they will be scatter once again over the world

Some girls no dey shame sef.
If possible,I know some would claim he raped dem.
