Politics / Re: Kwankwaso Storms Delta State In Style, Supporters Hail Him (Photos) by dominusgai(m): 2:34pm On Sep 18, 2022
Make una get sense small.

Considering the fact that no march for Peter Obi has been held in Delta state, how is it possible that it is people that went to Obi's rally that collected money to meet Kwakwaso?

Are you saying people from Edo and Bayelsa came to Warri to welcome Kwakwaso?

The journey would cost at least 3 thousand naira going and coming. And I am certain Kwakwaso won't give more than 5,000.

So you believe people came from Benin to welcome Kwakwaso for only 2 thousand naira.

[ author=Cherrybae post=116779423]Over 90% of the people here all matched for Peter obi.

People just using obedient match to catch their cruise.

In reality and on election day Peter obi won't even win Anambra state.

Obi cannot defeat Atiku or Tinubu. Let me stop here till 2023.

The whole noise will change to rigging for those shouting today that obi is the next president.

If you can bring proof and show a picture of a single person that was in Obi's rally in this picture I will transfer 5,000 to you instantly.

You are seeing a crowd of Hausa people and you are saying it is people that came out for Obi that are here.

You must be blind. Also, Delta has not held any rally yet for Peter Obi, so how can they have come out for him?

Or are you telling me people came from Benin and Bayelsa to collect 2,000 for transportation from Kwakwaso?
lhordspy:
Lol. Such a funny time to be alive. grin

No be this same crowd come out few days back for Peter Obi?



Kwankwaso don fling small money for boys.

If such a business opportunity is there like you have outlaid it, how come no other billionaire has seized the opportunity to create a pro free speech social media platform that might be able to rival the likes of Facebook and Twitter?

Or is such a wonderful opportunity strictly waiting for just Mr. Trump and Mr. Trump alone?

It is not just the opportunity that is needed for it to be successful, the person is vital as well.

No other billionaire can get 50 million people on their platform in less than a year. No other billionaire can get world leaders to make their platform the alternative in case Twitter is banned.

No other billionaire will give confidence to companies to stand with them and advertise with them knowing they will be cancelled.

No other billionaire can get 10 million people to pay a 10 dollar per month subscription fee in a year.

No other billionaire can get at least half of Republicans to switch to advertising with them in less than two years.

In battle, the general is as important as the artillery. If you have strong artillery and weak generals, you will lose.

Think about it. Trump says he wants to start his own platform and he made headlines for days.

Is it all about being on Trump site?

How will money that will sustain the site be generated?

Is Trump also planning on hiring coders and web managers who will keep the site running?

What exactly is so special about the proposed Mr Trump social media?

Okay, let me start. People seem to forget that Trump is a billionaire. He already has the money.

And contrary to popular believe, 50 million dollars will be more than enough to launch a social media site which while not as big, is as efficient as facebook. That is more than enough to hire coders, get your own servers and your own network.

2, the site making money. First of, there are numerous companies that will advertise on the platform for one reason and one reason alone. It will be an instant hit. At the moment, almost all the companies are against Republicans, that means they are actively looking for companies that support them to give their money. While other companies will have to compete for the left market, the competition for the right will be low.
The right knows that to advertise with them is to defy the democrats, and they will rally to ensure you remain in business. See Goya and My pillow, they are making so much money after the left trys to cancel them.

Did you see how fast Coke brought a white campaign to appease the Republicans when it came out they were hosting a program that encouraged their employees to be less white?

Another thing you guys seem to forget is that facebook makes most of their ad revenue from small business advertising. If Trump lunches a platform, majority of small republican Businesses will shift advertising to that platform. That is an instant 40% of their market gone. Believe me, Facebook does not want that.

Now let us go to the main thing. At the moment, a lot of countries are looking to reign in facebook. And twitter is looking at starting to censor world leaders.

Tell me, if twitter starts censoring world leaders, how long do you think it will take for the countries to start banning them? And how hard do you think it will take Trump to convince the likes of India to replace Twitter with his own platform?

So now we have Trump, that will
1) Have half of America flooding his platform
2) Have advertisers faster than any other platform can
3) Has the money to startup a platform
4) Has the power to influence a lot of country leaders.

The platform might not be as big as facebook or twitter, but it will not be destroyable like Parker. Coupled with the quick rate of it generating adverts, that means that in the next three to 7 years, it will have torn a sizable portion of customers from facebook to be able to go toe to toe with them and survive.

I almost forgot a last point, who says the social media has to be free. If Trump brings a social media platform where people have to pay 10 dollars a month to use, he will still have over 10 million users in the first year. That is more than enough to sustain the platform till it starts getting advertisers. That is 100 million in revenue every month. How fast do you think a social media platform can expand with that?

Education / Re: My 3-Year-Old Son Can't Read Or Write Letters, Please Help by dominusgai(m): 2:02pm On Oct 23, 2020
Makavelli25:
Are you a Russian
ABI where are you rushing to


If he is just moving to nursery classes then he is still okay with what he knows already.
Let me do a short breakdown for you
Playgroup/kindergarten (1yearold) -all they go to school to do is play sing rhymes and sleep
Prenusery1/kg1 (2year old)- learn life basic skills, greetings etc sing rhymes play and sleep. Some schools may introduce them to the alphabet but they don't really expect them to Know it
Prenusery2/kg2(3year old)- they start giving them pencil so their wrist will be trained to hold it well, they start reading the ABC so they will get used to it

Then Nursery 1 and 2 by now they would have known how to hold a pencil properly here they will start learning numbers up to 100/200 so when they get to nursery 2 the will start all these 2/3 letter word.





Just keep calm and find time for your kid. Monitor his improvement and communicate well with his teacher



He go det okay. Let him reach Nursery 1st

Actually the recommended age for nursery one is 4 years. Even in US and Britain (where we copied our system of education from), children seldom start kindergarten at two. They start at 4.

It is only extremely intelligent children that start kindergarten at two.

And trust me, if your child is extremely intelligent to start kindergarten at two, you will know, you won't have to force it.

One of the challenges with the current system of education in Nigeria is that it is not tailored for the average but for the extremely intelligent.

The second challenge is that every parent believes their child is extremely intelligent. That is not just true.

In an average class, you have about 10% extremely intelligent, 10% extremely challenged and the other 80% average.

A while back I thought in my sister's school where I had a little bit of leverage. There I kind of reduced the subjects thought a day from 8 to 5 but explained longer.

That term the children's performance was better than previous.

In all, there are some things people will not understand until they are old enough.
Phones / Re: How Do I Track My Phone That Got Stolen? by dominusgai(m): 11:22pm On Oct 20, 2020
You can track your phone but will the cost be worth it?

I don't know about your area but in my area to track stolen phones via the station cost from 60 to 120k.

That is why it is usually reserved for murder cases or high cost robbery.

If you believe the information in it is worth that much, just go to any police station with a sworn affidavit that your phone was stolen (after the protest that is) and they can track it for you

It is the kind of insult you spewed at your generation up there, that makes you incapable of seeing anything wrong with what your lord and saviour "trump" does. Everyone must not agree with you, but in your warped mind just like Trump that uses military to faceoff with peaceful protesters, you think otherwise.
You have no decency, nor decorum. Your sentiment and emotion gets the best of you, grow some emotional intelligence please!

@ the bolded, what has buying form got to do with releasing tax records? You asked me the response of Obama to his tax records, i gave you verifiable links to download his taxes, then this poorly thought out line is your response? (Faces palm). If all is well "in the garden of Eden" like he claims, why is he fighting tooth and nail to hide it?

@ second bolded, Adam Schiff sent spies to spy on Trump's calls, seriously? What are you reading and what are you smoking, please? Now i see why you're a trump supporter, I give up on your IQ. cry

I don't worship money, i probe anything i deem fit, it is people without values like you that think anything wraped in money should not be questioned.
I don't expect you to understand class, because you're obviously as classless as Trump.
I'll choose Obama over your trashy morbidly obese Trump anyday. If that gets to you, you can jump into the river and drown.
There's no point discussing policy with you, because you're empty.

I don't quote idiot's or reply them, so I'm not going to dignify you with any more responses.

Your idiocy has been proven again and again. Talking about policies like you know something in your coconut head.

Your brain is just blank, nothing in it. The morbidly obese guy was a success way before Obama and a success on Obama's job.

So in your stupidity, you call protestors that looted a city empty peaceful protestors? Protestors that killed over 25 police men peaceful? Kai, your stupidity really is like zeaworld, extraordinary everyday.

You talk of decorum like you know it. You are probably one daft nigga living in a slump in lagos, managing to watch CNN on a bank's television.

You do not seat and analyze, just spew trash. And now you accuse Trump of being morbidly obese. It goes further to tell me you know nothing on your own, just what CNN tells you. If you did, you would know Trump is nowhere near morbid obesity.

But then again you are as daft as the rest of the democrats and served 3 quarter of your brain to the god of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Please take out time to study reports and results yourself, place both side by side.

Obama called protestors thugs in his time, but your democrat idiots did not comment then. He called the national guard to handle protest in his time too. Are they not the same people Trump called. What of his Benghazi failure, his Obama phone, his exportation of American jobs, all failures of his.

Obama was a disappointment for a black president, so bad is his record I am not sure another black would touch that seat in 50 years.

In the real sense of it, it's US that benefits more. For example these nations buy everything American. Though recently, China is breaking that unwritten rule. But, these nations has no liberty of buying some products from China or others like military hardwares, they must buy from the US.

Also, US uses this to influence them to vote her interest in UN, and also keep US as the only monetary system in the world that has made US Treasure to manipulate the economy of entire world.

This also made US to control and order them like puppets. Yes, more than puppet self. For example; Huawei, US specifically ordered them not to use because it against her interest. Airpeace too, you remember Canada frozen the company's account and also denied the airline to evacuate Nigerians, all were US orders.

The arrest of Huawei Finance Officer in Canada that has made Canadian farmers to loose export of produce to China. It's practically impossible for these countries to do all that without NATO, that is basically extended version of US millitary.

The NATO thing also employs more American citizens, and also keeps companies like Boeing afloat. For months now, Boeing has being struggling but US millitary keeps it going by awarding contracts.

Once again, I do not see how, I will research the NATO unemployment claim, but the reason Trump is able to get them to vote for their interest can not be chucked up to NATO. He gives good deals too.

Now why Military purchase are meaningful, they don't get up to consumer purchase, and China is getting them all. More importantly, even if there was no NATO, they would still be inclined to Buy US weapons more, they are basically the best.

Guy think am now, Airpeace is not top 3 even in Nigeria, do you really think Trump will worry over a small fry like air peace ordering two aircraft when Boeing delivered over 380 aircrafts in 2019?

Finally, it boils down to the reward ratio, at the moment, the very few privileges US benefit is not comparable to their expenditure of both finance and manpower.

People seem to forget that if the countries of the world decides to work independently and war comes, US will probably stand untouched much longer than the others.

No country can invade USA, outside their military, at least 30% of the population have and know how to use very well a gun. And another 30% are allowed to own guns. Just imagine it for a moment, trying to invade USA, where 60% of the population own guns and know how to use them.

The people already purchased the guns and paid for the trainings without straining the government budget. Hell I believe even at least 10% of their children already know how to use a gun (not just shoot it, but aim, clean, dismantle and mantle it and shoot at moving target from a distance)

I believe Trump knows this, and will prefer others countries do more in preserving the peace of the world and reducing the strain on them. He knows America can do just fine on their own.

It is not my duty to educate you, however since you're obviously mentally and physically lazy to check for yourself, I'll help you.

Also check fact.org, there was an isolated claim that he didn't submit his tax records, it is false. Just as Trump claimed about Obama's birth certificate and was put to shame. Obama's tax records are available to download, they have always been and will always will.

You can't buy class with money, Obama is the epitome of class.. Don't just support or hate anyone (Herd mentality) because others do; research, read, observe then draw your conclusion.


OK, stupidity will never leave your house. Since you are incapable of critical thought, let me analyze something else for you.

This is Trump's first stint in Politics, Now reason properly if you have the little capacity.

Do you believe it will be possible for Trump a first timer politician to buy a nominee form, talk less of be a president without having straight tax records?

Do you believe if Trump's taxes were dubious, the likes of Adam shif that could get someone to spy on Trump's presidential call would not have sniffed it out and tried impeaching him for it?

As for class, that is how the likes of you are deceived in Nigeria, you place class over delivery, so a classfull idiot would deceive you and waste 4 years of your life without achieving anything. However, a classless achiever would get the job done. And he has been getting the job done.

Trump achieved everything in life, and became President, tell me, what was Obama's achievement before becoming president? Oh, he was a black man, that was his only achievement to become president.

No policy achievement, no business achievement, nothing. And because of his uselessness, no black man will be president of US for another 50 years.

lol you are so naïve.. NATO funds most of this base, in middle east Saudi, UAE, Bahrain and Kuwait fund their bases there, and in SouthKorea alone , South Korea pays atleast $500m USD for a single American missile defense system.. the ones that are not paying in cash are getting their resources plundered by US

now to the implication of US pulling out of Germany... it is very simple, Russia and China and other communist allies would visit the old would of hitler and go after Germany, and Germany and its European allies would fight back, take out Germany European best economy then Europe might face a bad economic deression, and this is where it would hurt US badly.. Europe is one of US biggest trading partner

so Trumps move is stupid and anti American in the long run, if he pulls out Europe, and Iraq and Iran succeed in kicking him out of middle east, then world war is around the corner.. is this logical to have world war due to stupidity of hosting right of G7?

Many people quoted me on this thread and I ignored them cos had no point.You however asked a good question so here are 3 main reasons US needs NATO **1.NATO promotes peace within europe and deters major US adversaries from launching large scale conventional wars.**2.NATO is a force multiplier that gives the US access to military tools in greater numbers that it can achieve by itself. **3.NATO supports and protects the economies of europe,which are very critical to the health and stability of the US economy.

Sir, so far so good the protection of NATO is not for US but the European countries. US alone can defend itself from any attack. As for the fallacy that NATO gives US access to military tools, that is simply untrue. In the years past US got their military upgrade from their budget which is not dependent or supported by NATO. There is not one military weapon gotten by US as a result of NATO, not one. The most tactical nation to US weapons system is Israel, and they are not part of NATO.

For the final one, Europe in the last decade has been buying less and less of American goods, so their downfall if it comes will not be as impactful to US as you think.

Besides that, point out benefits specific to America alone, none. So you expect US to spend the most for NATO, send the most soldiers and not get any direct benefit.

Germany is in trouble. Russia has a deep rooted plan to invade and annex western Europe specifically Poland and Germany. China is mentioned I think they're wrong about that, if China would invade any country it would be Japan. Trump acts without thinking anyway. Trump leadership is one of the fastest way to destroy America.

Kindly note, Russia is not in anyway enemy of US. In fact, after second world war the money US lend Britain was given free of charge to Russia. UK just finished paying back in late 2017. Russia is specifically advancing her millitary because of western Europeans. America doesn't want that to happen that's the issue between Russia and the US.

Should it then be US's job to keep protecting Germany without anything in return? Please list all that America has benefited from rendering this service over the past years. I am open to learning.

Currently carpernik is promoting destruction and looting of more shops. Antifa accounts with people actually being beaten has never been censored, Chinese officials post on twitter when twitter is banned in China. Post a verbatim video of democrats lying and it will be censored. Google telling Prager U their videos are misleading to the modern day youth yet refusing to do the same to radical Muslim videos.

5% of what? That's the exact issue, my friend. If it's 5% of US population, then it's no longer funny...

US is about 360 million. 5% of that will be 1.6 million.

However, current antigen testing is showing the infection rate might be at least 300% higher than the official count, meaning while the official count is about 800,000, the actual infected might be 2.4 million. That means over 1.2 million were infected and beat the infection without knowing.

And considering the fact that not the whole population will become infected, the death rate might be way way lower.

Not to demean the dead, but a lot of those that are being counted as Covid-19 death might not have died of the virus. Yes they might have died with it, but not of it.

Right now the practice is to test for covid 19 after death and add the death to corona virus if the virus is found in the body. So even if an old person dies of kidney failure that would have killed him on its own, provided the person has corona virus the death will be counted as such without autopsy.

That's funny... how bad did it get in New York, Washington, Italy? Are people saying that the death rate would have been less without a lock down in those three places? I don't know what "greatly exaggerated" means in this context.

In the US alone, (from today's Wikipedia), there have been 799,515 cases; 42,897 deaths; 73,373 recoveries.
You see how deaths is over 50% of recoveries? Implying there's a lot more deaths coming, since there are over 500,000 cases yet unresolved (either in death or recovery).

Did you read how around 500 people died in NY in 24 hours for days during the peak? Body bags and frozen trucks for dead bodies? Assume people were allowed to continue mingling... we could easily be reading about 1000+ dying daily... Of course, people who are now saying "they greatly exaggerated" will be blaming healthcare workers and the government for "not taking it seriously enough".

Take a look at the graphs on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019-20_coronavirus_pandemic#Epidemiology
Notice the slope of the graphs, depicting the increasing rate of infections? Notice how it's slowing after the restrictions? (Most are in semi-log scale; now imagine if the plot was a linear scale)

171,249 deaths worldwide "greatly exaggerated"? And this is with stringent restrictions in place. I fail to see how it would have been better without those restrictions that have saved countless lives.

Sir, there are almost 800,000 cases, yet only about 43,000 deaths.

Now when you calculate the death rate to the infected you see it is miniscule. Of this near 800,000, about 60% of them are not in a hospital. While they were diagnosed, they were not sick enough to go to the hospital but self quarantined at home. Let that sink in.

Sir, death rate in new York on the average is over 800 daily. So if only 500 people die it is actually lesser than average.

Sir, notice those trucks used are specifically for the purpose, meaning they have been used before. And on researching further, I found out that New York uses trucks to store remains on occasion. Coupled with the fact that Families are not allowed to claim bodies for burial, there is bound to be overflow, not because people are dying beyond measure but because people are not allowed to bury their people.

As for the graphs, the first graph told them to expect over 2 million death even with social distancing factored in, but here they are now, with about 42,000 deaths and over 6,000 of which can be attributed to other ailments.

Sir, right now antegen testing is proving the infection rate is at least 300% than recorded. That means over 2.1 million people have been actually infected. That means the death rate is further down.

If people were allowed to move freely with social distancing, I doubt the death rate will have been higher.
