It will help you think crazily. It's a simple board game

Any past history of his prophecies coming to pass?
If not he should shut up and make records first.
I call this predictions just like sportbet.
The odds are favorable for buhari to give way(he's am old man, Nnamdi kunu will surely be freed (everyone knows that,but no one knows when just like the prophet) and when Buhari dies, it's Constitutional to have his vice in his place.
And off course we can't be in recession for life.

Nothing for the less privileged out there in the streets begging to just taste rice and stew even if there are no meat and drink and they will bless your soul....you spent all on your already comfortable kids and came here to flaunt it, we are happy for you but you would have made more sense if you also had felicitated and gave some help to d downtrodden and the based people around you....kudos to though!

How sure are you that she hasn't done that? We are always swift at condemning and we easily forget that one doesn't need to be wealthy before one gives to the less privileged.

The woman is a fool for doing that. No matter what the situation is, "you don't sleep with someone to rescue your husband's business. He will always use it against you".There's no way the man can handle the psychological aftermath. maybe to save his life which I still do not give 100℅ support to as well.

The word "may" is a conditional statement so OBJ was not wrong.

doctorkush:
what drug did she use? since you said the test result is negative, its been aborted but still in the womb... its an emergency... don't sit and relax...

Lol... This nairaland doctor no go kill me.
Doctor plus Kush.
She's most likely just having hormonal imbalance.
A patient who has a dead baby in her womb for that long would have long been dead from disseminated intravascular coagulopathy.
About six weeks after an incomplete abortion, the dead baby decays and causes serious infection.
4 months is too long not to have come down with an infection. Meaning her abortion was done completely.
Hope you learnt something?

All this benefits and the government does not see it as important to build one all this years.

Including the chief of army staff?

This Ambode's government is not a thinking government. Before 6 months, fashola's government already had directions.
What's the direction this man is leading us to?

How would you legalise such fee? On what grounds?
The claim that one won't be disturbed further after paying for foundation is laughable. Why not make it illegal to reclaim a property immediately after sale.
Or better still get a cheap fixed price for the foundation fee because I trust this omonile guys. They will slam outrageous fees on foundation soon
People got killed when it was illegal, I wonder what will happen now that it's been legalised.

Drive cars on which roads!?

Let them use that money to complete roads and set up a task force to monitor the activities of the local govt arms..

Cos those people just sit there and eat all the money, allotted to their areas... No good road inlet into streets...

There is a street in my area that's gradually turnin into a mighty hole... Yet the local council representive in this district turns a blind eye to it... Saying the lagos govt has not approved money to fix the roads in in his constituency...

It is appalling that people in the majority have lost their senses in this country cos if they have not.. Why do they keep voting inept people into power...!?

we need not condemn every action of the government.
Whether or not the roads are fixed, Nigerians will still buy cars. Though it's not up to 1℅of the measures to be be taken in order to grow the naira which we all clamor. So therefore, it's important to allow the system work and not criticize nor fail to patronize.
One thing Nigerians do not understand is that a failure of any government is a failure of Nigeria and Nigerians.

The best thing to learn foreign language is the willingness to learn...

I agree with you but reflect on the first point ( KNOW WHY YOU’RE DOING IT) deeply and you will understand it talks about willingness too.

10 Tips And Tricks To Learn Any Language

Advice for learning languages from a guy who speaks nine.
BY JOHN-ERIK JORDAN

1. KNOW WHY YOU’RE DOING IT

This might sound obvious, but if you don’t have a good reason to learn a language, you are less likely to stay motivated over the long-run. Wanting to impress English-speakers with your French is not a very good reason; wanting to get to know a French person in his or her own language is another matter entirely. No matter your reason, once you’ve decided on a language, it’s crucial to commit:

“OK, I want to learn this and I’m therefore going to do as much as I can in this language, with this language and for this language.”

2. FIND A PARTNER

Matthew learned several languages together with his twin brother Michael (they tackled their first foreign language, Greek, when they were only eight years old!). Matthew and Michael, or the Super Polyglot Bros. as I’d like to now refer to them, gained their superpowers from good-ol’, healthy sibling rivalry:

“We were very motivated, and we still are. We push each other to really go for it. So if he realizes that I’m doing more than he is he’ll get a bit jealous and then try and outdo me (maybe because he’s my twin) – and the other way round.”

Even if you can’t get a sibling to join you on your language adventure, having any kind of partner will push both of you to always try just a little bit harder and stay with it:

“I think it’s a really great way of actually going about it. You have someone with whom you can speak, and that’s the idea behind learning a language.”

3. TALK TO YOURSELF

When you have no one else to speak to, there’s nothing wrong with talking to yourself:

“It might sound really weird, but actually speaking to yourself in a language is a great way to practice if you’re not able to use it all the time.”

This can keep new words and phrases fresh in your mind and build up your confidence for the next time you speak with someone.

4. KEEP IT RELEVANT

If you make conversation a goal from the beginning, you are less likely to get lost in textbooks. Talking to people will keep the learning process relevant to you:

“You’re learning a language to be able to use it. You’re not going to speak it to yourself. The creative side is really being able to put the language that you’re learning into a more useful, general, everyday setting – be that through writing songs, generally wanting to speak to people, or using it when you go abroad. You don’t necessarily have to go abroad; you can go to the Greek restaurant down the road and order in Greek.”

5. HAVE FUN WITH IT

Using your new language in any way is a creative act. The Super Polyglot Bros. practiced their Greek by writing and recording songs. Think of some fun ways to practice your new language: make a radio play with a friend, draw a comic strip, write a poem, or simply talk to whomever you can. If you can’t find a way to have fun with the new language, chances are you aren’t following step four.

6. ACT LIKE A CHILD

This is not to say you should throw a tantrum or get food in your hair when you go out to a restaurant, but try learning the way kids do. The idea that children are inherently better learners than adults is proving to be a myth. New research cannot find a direct link between age and the ability to learn. The key to learning as quickly as a child may be to simply take on certain childlike attitudes: for instance, lack of self-consciousness, a desire to play in the language and willingness to make mistakes.

We learn by making mistakes. As kids, we are expected to make mistakes, but as adults mistakes become taboo. Think how an adult is more likely to say, “I can’t”, rather than, “I haven’t learned that yet” (I can’t swim, I can’t drive, I can’t speak Spanish). To be seen failing (or merely struggling) is a social taboo that doesn’t burden children. When it comes to learning a language, admitting that you don’t know everything (and being okay with that) is the key to growth and freedom. Let go of your grown-up inhibitions!
7. LEAVE YOUR COMFORT ZONE

Willingness to make mistakes means being ready to put yourself in potentially embarrassing situations. This can be scary, but it’s the only way to develop and improve. No matter how much you learn, you won’t ever speak a language without putting yourself out there: talk to strangers in the language, ask for directions, order food, try to tell a joke. The more often you do this, the bigger your comfort zone becomes and the more at ease you can be in new situations:

“At the beginning you’re going to encounter difficulties: maybe the pronunciation, maybe the grammar, the syntax, or you don’t really get the sayings. But I think the most important thing is to always develop this feel. Every native speaker has a feel for his or her own language, and that’s basically what makes a native-speaker – whether you can make the language your own.”

8. LISTEN

You must learn to listen before you can speak. Every language sounds strange the first time you hear it, but the more you expose yourself to it the more familiar it becomes, and the easier it is to speak it properly:

“We’re able to pronounce anything, it’s just we’re not used to doing it. For example the rolled r doesn’t exist in my form of English. When I was learning Spanish there were words with the hard r in them like perro and reunión. For me, the best way to go about mastering that is actually to hear it constantly, to listen to it and to kind of visualize or imagine how that is supposed to be pronounced, because for every sound there is a specific part of the mouth or throat that we use in order to achieve that sound.”

9. WATCH PEOPLE TALK

Different languages make different demands on your tongue, lips and throat. Pronunciation is just as much physical as it is mental:

“One way – it might sound a bit strange – is to really look at someone while they’re saying words that use that sound, and then to try to imitate that sound as much as possible. Believe me, it might be difficult at the beginning, but you will. It’s something that is actually quite easily done; you just need to practice it.”

If you can’t watch and imitate a native-speaker in person, watching foreign-language films and TV is a good substitute.

10. DIVE IN

So you’ve made the pledge. How to proceed? Is there a proper way to go about learning? Matthew recommends the 360° maximalist approach: no matter which learning tools you use, it’s crucial to practice your new language every single day:

“I tend to want to absorb as much as possible right from the start. So if I learn something I really, really go for it and try to use it throughout the day. As the week progresses I try to think in it, try to write in it, try to speak to myself even in that language. For me it’s about actually putting what you’re learning into practice – be that writing an email, speaking to yourself, listening to music, listening to the radio. Surrounding yourself, submerging yourself in the new language culture is extremely important.”

Remember, the best possible outcome of speaking a language is for people to speak back to you. Being able to have a simple conversation is a huge reward in itself. Reaching milestones like that early on will make it easier to stay motivated and keep practicing. And don’t worry, you won’t annoy people by speaking their language poorly. If you preface any interaction with, “I’m learning and I’d like to practice…” most people will be patient, encouraging and happy to oblige. Even though there are approximately a billion non-native English-speakers around the world, most of them would rather speak their own language if given a choice. Taking the initiative to step into someone else’s language world can also put them at ease and promote good feelings all around:

“Sure, you can travel abroad speaking your own language, but you’ll get so much more out of it being able to actually feel at ease in the place you are – being able to communicate, to understand, to interact in every situation you could possibly imagine.

Nice advert. As a satanist who's given up heaven and choose to join the armies of lucifer on the armageddon, i can tell you that all these adds are meant to promote our satanic agenda which is for the purpose of freeing mankind from the grasp of the dictator jehovah.
we will fight an defeat the armies of christ and throw him in the bottomless pit he prepared for us, then we will mount a large scale invasion of heaven where we would defeat and bind his father while sacking the throne room and putting lucifer the lord of light on the throne and forever ending the tyranny of the evil jehovah. The reign of jehovah is almost over so you guys can just join us and inherit the earth and everlasting life as kings

Sometimes replying mentions on nairaland is waste of time. But let me engage you.
You shouldn't have insulted me at all, it's uncalled for.

You claim they said "valuable" and not "better".

Please can you tell me the single criterion for judging a player's worth (value) asides age (which they all fall under same bracket)?

Please no more insults.

Asides martial and probably sane,I don't think any other person on the list is better than iheanacho.
I wonder why Rashford would come ahead of him.

I don't care about the feelings of Manchester United fans right now.I don talk my own.

naturalwaves:
Okay.


This means that for every proposal the captain makes, he needs at least 3 people to support it including himself.


Looks like he needs to try and take the advantage from the next captain.



The maximum part makes it a bit difficult. Since he needs at least 3 people to support his motion including himself, the minimum number of coins that must leave him is 2 i.e for the 2 other people that must support him. He needs to reduce the coin to the bearest minimum so as to reduce the chance of some people voting for themselves so, 2 of the pirates need to get 0 coins as well.


Let the pirates be A B C D E respectively with the captain being A.
If he takes 98, gives B 1, gives C 1 and D and E 0, B can vote himself and D and E can decide to vote for B thus endagering the captain A.

If you continue the permutations, his best bet would be to take 98, give B 0coin, give C 1coin, give D 0coin and give E 1 coin. If any of C or E decides not to vote for A with this, they may lose their lives. So, they would rather vote for A to get something and also stay alive.
#My opinion though

This riddle took 25 minutes+ to crack. What is the answer o?

I do not accept this answer.
Don't you think the pirates given one gold coin each might still rebel since they are getting lesser than supposed?

Let's look at it from this angle.
Each pirate should get 20 gold coins each since they are 5.
Considering their greedy nature, no pirate will wanna be given lesser than 20 gold coins else such pirate will revolt.
The captain's best bet is
Give 2 pirates 21 gold coins each totalling to 42 gold coins
Give the 2 other pirates nothing
Now, the maximum the captain can keep is 58 coins.
With this, he's assured of the votes of the other 2 pirates who might revolt against him if they got 20 gold coins or lesser.
Ruminate over this sir.

DIKEnaWAR:
With all your knowledge about the medical profession, you failed to buttress your wild assertions with facts. Obviously, you are wanna-be medical 'practitioner' and has already assumed and imposed knowledge and responsibilities on yourself.


I have given you the attention you seek, now get outta my mentions.

Sorry bro, you got it all wrong. I actually did not and do not blame you.
I blame the patient who used a drug, had reactions, didn't stop usage nor report to the hospital.
If the patient hadn't messed up you wouldn't have had an opportunity to spew trash on a subject you are totally ignorant about.

DIKEnaWAR:
Seriously terrible!

The doctors we have here don't even go through your medical history to know if you react to anything. They administer the drugs and wait for the reactions. If adverse, they deny you and cry that their enemies are using you to pull them down.

Let us situate this problem properly; it is not Septrin that did this to her, but a component in the drug. People will start avoiding Septrin now, while they continue taking other brands with that same component that a lot might react to. It is high time we begin to evaluate drugs on their chemical composition and not brand.


It is normal to hear people say "Beecham ampiclux is the best". This is because they think a drug is all about brand and not composition. Let our pharmacists/doctors begin to dispense drugs on the basis of their chemical content one after the other and not what it seeks to cure.

It's obvious you know nothing about the medical profession so I will advise you sought knowledge before speaking in public.
Wonder who those that liked your posts are.
Your first, second and third paragraphs are factually incorrect.
No time to school you. Just try read about medical history, Stevens-Johnson syndrome and drugs components and efficacy
