How did he acquire a thousand guns. I suppose the purchase was not done legally, then the question is where, and how did he buy the guns?

ok so why feeling sorry for her predicament then, shebi she is unrelenting and uncompromising abi?

Again I reiterate it is foolish of her and she and her loved ones are paying the price for her foolishness. We should raise people to think straight. it's like being hungry and about to die and refusing food from a murderer. It's just stupid. Even the Bible says God uses all sorts of people to solve our problems.

It is very obvious to me, you're in no place to comment on this issue. And it will be counterproductive for me to continue the discourse farther than I have.

alBHAGDADI:
According to you, Jesus Christ is like a bank that can't really keep something safe.
Can you mention one man that is without sin? I bet you can't. That means no man will make heaven according to you.
Yes, people are sinning, but that's cos they are in the flesh which wars against the spirit. The spirit is saved and will make heaven, but the flesh just wants to do fleshy things.
You don't even have scriptures to back your false belief

All I see is a man overcome by sin, trying to justify his life of sin under the guise that we are saved in our spirit and our flesh can hence do whatever it wants to do.
Living a life of sin is different from committing a sin, in the former the man has made the life of sin a habitual practice, "He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God."(1 John 3:8‭-‬9 KJV) but in the latter, a man can be overcome by his flesh and give in to a sin, at the instance of committing that sin he would have the Holy Spirit which he received in his spirit witness to him about what he had done, and in such situations did Apostle John admonish "My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous..."(1 John 2:1 KJV) at the nudging of the Holy Spirit, one confesses the sin committed and receives pardon.
To imply that a born again Christian could continue in sin because he is after all still in the flesh is anathematic.

Is this man an idiot speaking incoherently or just a confused dullard? What has an Igbo senate president or deputy president got to do with Igbo's getting dividend of democracy considering they are legal entities of the country?
Whether the vote for the ruling party or not, is no reason why they should not feel the impact of the government, one would even think that's the more reason the government needs to impress to win them over on their side.
All these drumming up of tribalism doesn't help the country. As an Igbo person I will vote an Umaru Musa Yaradua 100 times over any Igbo politician I know about. Who tribe help?

I’m sorry to say this but while I do not any way condone what is happening to the young girl, Leah is still in captivity because she acted foolishly, she acted foolishly because Nigerian pastors have brainwashed their flock not to use their brains but to be foolish. Please let me explain. Those who were released said Leah wasn’t released because when her captors asked her to convert to Islam she refused.
Excuse me what will it have cost her to say “ok I have converted” and after she is released she will go back to practicing her Christianity? God will not hold it against her because he knows it was under duress and not from her heart. Pentecostalism is raising a nation of Christians who do not think anymore.

Let me get this right, "so your definition of foolish is believing in something and standing on it without relenting or compromise"?
Anyway I think the problem with Pentecostalism is the surge in the number of men and women who don't believe in anything. And hence they would fall for anything.
That you would even apportion any fault to the young girl whatsoever, disgusts me.

Unfortunately Trump's dogma is "America First", or should I rather say it is " America Only". So this poor mother is definitely barking on the wrong tree. I feel for her, the people that has the power to help her won't.

Read the link below, to have a broader knowledge of the situation on ground.
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/06/iran-tensions-latest-updates-190621103437644.html

I told you what the US claims. Does your article show any acceptance by them of violating Iran's airspace?
I already have a broad knowledge of the situation on ground and find your sly suggestion of ignorance on my part insulting.

Reading all these threats and counter threats from both countries and all the commentary on who will win the hypothetical war between US and Iran got me thinking, "when will Nigeria come remotely close to this?". Maybe after they have won the war against Boko Haram.

ForeThinker:
Last last no war

US will chicken out

Trump is not that a general but a businessman

US STARTED THE TROUBLE, SO THEY CAN'T JUSTIFY THEIR ACTION IF THEY RETALIATE ...

WHY VIOLATE THEIR LAW ?

WHO'S AFRAID OF WHO?

US claims the drone was in international airspace. If that is so, then Iran is just looking for trouble unnecessarily.

labusinessguide:
We hope that the server will save the day.
Sad enough, server results isn't recognised by our Constitution.
So the question is, how will the PDP convince the court that server result is valid and should be adopted by the court as the correct result as against the manually collated results.
Well...

A server result disparate from the manual result does cast aspersions on the genuineness and correctness of the manual result.
It is left to PDP to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the server result is the correct result from the various polling units.
But it is going to be a hard nut to crack considering that it relies on the collaboration of INEC; who meanwhile have tenaciously refused to agree that there is a server.
My Delta friend would say, "at all, at all na witch" implying that no matter what it is you do, just do something. And I think that's what PDP is doing and I wish them luck. Nigeria does need a lot of luck to turn around from the present trend.

Cherrybae:
Ndi Imo will soon begin to regret voting this useless Mbaise man.

Instead of concentrating on governance he is busy attacking Rochas and family.

Imo state can never be great at all

Cry me a river.

Beautifully written.

This is nothing but a cycle of abuse. The 8 year old must have been abused by an adult. I can bet you with 99% certainty that her hymen is not intact.

The abused becomes the abuser, and it goes on and on.

And finally we need to pay attention to Parental Guidance on television. Those ratings are not for fancy.

The truth is that most of all these suicides is not stemming from clinical depression.

We must distinguish depression from grief. This is a case of a grieving and unintelligent woman.

I pray you all do have enough sense to think through your actions before taking them.

Seenyo:
buhari is the BIGGEST FRAUD I ever WASTED my vote on!

the INTERGRITY-DEFICIENT. crook is never a man of his words!

God bless late yaradua, the only Nigerian president that ever publicly declared his assets.

The best president Nigeria could have. If he had been president for 8 years, Nigeria would have been positioned on the path to being a great nation.

Sorry, you voted for Buhari, though Jonathan was clueless, I listened to all Buhari's campaign promises and knew the man had no plan and would be worse off. Lesson is, never follow a man with no plan.

[quote author= post=79459900]President Muhammadu Buhari Asset is out there everywhere for everyone to see since 2015 along with his Vice President.

Baba is always happy to let the masses know about his assets,
Even till the recent one he declared.
It is only a click away online.[/quote]It is not your Baba's right to make public or not. It has nothing to do with him, that it has something to do with him shows the highhandedness of your Baba and how all government agencies are wrapped in his finger.

The moment the assets were declared with CCB, it became public property accessible to any Nigerian individual or organization that wants to see it. And all they need to do, is write to the CCB and within the stipulated time, the CCB has to show the person(s) the declaration without having to take permission from your Baba.

That's completely unlawful. It is a contravention of the Freedom of Information Act.

Anybody and everybody has a right to see any public office holders declaration of assets.

Foolish old human BEAN

Oya, make una come, food don done

Why do you believe this story? University graduates of computer science don't know how to write a computer program in BASIC not to talk of hacking and you think the 67 year old woman knows how to do that?

Only you will finish that big plate of noodles? You too much.

Ever read people's comments and feel this tug to reply their comments only to pause and advise yourself against it, because you realize they will never want to be informed but rather wallow in stark ignorance?

Why do I have this feeling that MTN made themselves vulnerable and leaked that code, so as to play the victim card and make money from "selling" data that the unsuspecting users thought was free.

Considering they want EFCC to help them retrieve #50,000 from all those who used that code.

michlins:
you talking about an ideal world. Such speeds is only obtainable in Singapore and South Korea and other handful nations. Remember bro, 80% of Nigerians use mobile network thereby putting heavy weight on the available infrastructure. About Glo network reception being bad in your area, mtn is so bad that I can only make calls with it.

That exactly is my point. They should endeavour to have a uniform and steady service all over the country, even if it is 3G before jumping up and down offering us highfalutin 5G that is a mirage.

OBIPLUS:
Please we should wake up to reality. Ncc should make internet acess free in public places through government investment and support. The high charges should be reduced and government should invest in the sector to ensure high speed and low cost internet access.

NCC is not interested in making internet more accessible to the people, only collecting license fees and fines up and down.

No checkmating of these greedy telecoms. I wish there was better judicial system in the country. All these telecoms would have had class action suits against them one after the other.

michlins:
You guys might not believe it but Nigeria has a faster mobile data than some part of USA. Fact is that most of them Yankee people use Wi-Fi but 80-90% here are on mobile. I get close to 2MB/sec on Glo which is equivalent to 16mb/sec on H+


Now check the speed and we are on par and even better than many countries. But as usual, we don't expect anything good to come out of Nigeria and are quick to rubbish whatever thing we have

I get what you're trying to say, but that you got 2MB/sec on Glo network in a specific location is not something to be proud about. Glo takes a minute to open up a webpage over here. They need to have a uniform network all over the country.

I will say the speed is becoming better, at least now we occasionally see bursts in speed up to 2MB/s but at the end of the day, video streaming still gets interrupted even at that speed because it is not a uniform speed. 3G speeds should at least be up to 3MB/s as minimum average but that's not so.

There's probably a busted water pipe there or a water pipe from a home outside. It's common in Lagos (rural areas)

Outside the box thinking.

lawman88:
I really need help and strategies to handle this matter. My wife sister came three weeks ago to live with us. She is 22 yrs. My problems now is her dressing mode which my wife is not careful about.

This lady always wear see-through singlets and night gowns. She has big breasts and always displaying them. I don't know how I will tell my wife to talk her sister to cover herself. She may feel bad that I'm attracted to her sister.

During the sallah holiday, I was with her alone because my wife don't holiday in her place of work, I have to leave the house and stay in the accommodation given to me in my place of work.

This morning, I carried my undies to wash, she crossed me and told me to give it to her to wash, the towel she tied because she was going to bathroom before was removing and showing her full breasts and she never worry about that.

Our marriage is just one year and I never cheated on my wife and she trusted me but her sister is really giving me emotional trauma. Can you imagine, yester night, my wife went to a programme, I was with her. So I called her around 8 pm that we should pray and go to bed. This lady came with a see-through night gown with a push up bra that put all breasts outside. Even her pant color was visible. I tried to control myself....

Even this morning, she came for prayer with the same gown and my wife did not caution her.....
How can I handle this matter?

There are a lot of men out there who will love such an opportunity and I suppose some of them will advise you on this matter to act like them. I am going to advise you because I can see you sound very genuine. And I will itemize my points to make it straightforward.

1. One interesting and fascinating thing about the sexual temptation is that, you can never succumb to it if you block out the thoughts from your mind.

2. There might be that temptation to fantasize about any of her body parts, but I want you to imagine she is your sister and you will find yourself instead of being attracted you could either be neutral or even repulsed by the sight.

3. If you find that you cannot work on your mind, then you must communicate your concerns to your wife. Marriage is about being able to communicate your fears, worries, and everything with your spouse.

4. And depending on the kind of relationship that you have with your sister in-law, you could ask her to cover herself better. And if per chance she was doing it on purpose, she will get the message loud and clear, that you are not interested.

Thoniameek:
I have been on here since 2012 and it has been a wonderful experience most often than not.

I have met people here and met with people here.

I'm at the age where am hungrily searching for opportunities and keeping an eye open for any opportunity. I have always had interest in transportation business and there was a time I opened a thread looking for investors. They either got interested in me or just didn't think I could handle the stress that comes with the business being that I'm a woman.

Months went by and I saw a thread by Earthbound advertising for the purchase of Tricycles (keke maruwa) on hire purchase. And without thinking twice I contacted him. I was into this monthly contribution and wouldn't be getting my money back until in a month's time.

Surprisingly, that same day, in less than two hours apart after contacting Earthbound (the moniker that advertise the tricycle), a man contacted me in regards to my investor thread and wanted to know about the business.

I pitched my business idea and also sent the business plan to him and in less than two weeks he sent me 600k. Also note that I was telling Earthbound everything about how I was getting the money.

I sent Earthbound 440k out of the money. He said I'll be needing 2 guarantors that are resident in Lagos. It was in the process of getting my guarantors that I found out that his boss was no longer reachable (I had already introduce other people who were interested in the business to Earthbound). I wasn't the only one involved now.

The police came and locked up the place and seized the three vehicles that were there. The matter is in Area F police station Ikeja and they're just sitting on it. From what we've gathered the police is aware of these set of people, that they go around scamming people. The police have phone numbers, bank accounts, names and photos linked to this case yet, absolutely nothing is being done about it.

The last time we were there the police requested for money to pursue the case. We told them we didn't have money but we would pay from the money recovered once it was recovered. Obviously that didn't go well with them and nothing is still being done about the case. One of the guys involved said he would talk to his police friend to help transfer the case to his own division so he can handle it.

Earthbound is out of reach, not here on Nairaland or WhatsApp not anywhere.

We just enjoy making this country hard for ourselves. The police are worst than the civilians even. Everyone just has eyes out to steal from the other which makes it difficult to be honest. And it's even harder for those trying to make money legitimately, if your fellow man isn't frustrating you, the law enforcement will make sure of that....

It is a pathetic and pitiful situation.

The Nigerian system needs an overhaul from the top to the bottom.

But who will have the will and power to execute it?

While this is a story that gladdens the heart, unfortunately many have made these same confessions but could not last.

I hope, his decisions will be permanent and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches not usurp this great experience.

KenOne:
One bad thing about Igbos is they swallow everything from their leaders hook line and sinker as far as you're not in APC.

The reason they don't criticize Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia state despite his poor performances, but quick to criticize Yahaya Bello and Samuel Ortom of Benue state when he was in APC.

But the moment Ortom decamped to PDP no more criticism i remember how in a day they open up to 15 thread about Ortom owing salaries and not performing but everything have siezed since he's now in PDP.

Imagine if it were Okorocha, Ngige or Orji Uzor Kalu that gave themselves for search they will call it all sort of name and abuse them simply because they are Igbos in APC, but since it's Emeka Ihedioha a PDP governor it's humility in display.

Las las Emeka Ihedioha 4years will be spent on social media, Imo people please accept my sympathy in advance, i know pride will not allow you people to speak up about the non performance of Emeka Ihedioha because of how you guys insulted Okorocha and said he didn't do anything and claimed Emeka Ihedioha was the messiah to move Imo forward and rewrite the history of Imolite.

Did you even have sense enough to realize that Ihedioha has just been a Governor for barely 2 weeks, but have already reverted the salaries of civil servants that Okorocha reduced to 50% (or whatever percentage he feels like each of the months) back to 100%.

I guess Buhari has done remarkably well for Nigeria after 4 years. Oh! I forgot he could not do anything because he was busy whining about 16 years of PDP and NASS.

Barrywilly:
The girl is daft and a disgrace to womanhood. Withdraw wetin . This is an opportunity to teach would be rapists a lesson of their life. Those guys are facing a maximum of life imprisonment. I wept when I read the graphic and sordid accounts of the rape by the victim; which was also recorded with their phones. This is a matter against the State in which she is just a witness. She doesn't have any power to withdraw anything.

While it might be a matter against the State. But unfortunately the prosecution with need her testimony except they already have an overwhelming evidence without her.

I have not still been able to understand how rapist think, I guess they are just psychopaths.

sammymama:
If she doesn't have the character of a good wife... Quit nah.. But don't be the one at fault ooo... Not all native doctor are WICKED

Why did I just burst into spontaneous laughter at your last sentence? Lol

lilianofentse:
its passed through saliva so there's still a chance one might get infected

Of course I know that, and hence anyone you kiss, you should not be afraid of getting infectious mononucleosis from using their toothbrush because by kissing them you could already get it.

Mk93:
what will then happen if you wait till stores open? will heaven fall

You're funny. That would not even happen to me in the first instance.

But the poster (not me) had said the husband needed to brush his teeth and couldn't wait before the stores opened.
