PoliticsRe: Review North-East Budget Or Face Insurgency - Ex-Yobe Governor To GEJ by ektbear: 4:27am On Oct 15, 2012
How can a financial drain and liability be unhappy sef

it is like your deadbeat cousin living in your house, complaining that he is unhappy with what you give him

sesanrota: He said: “Boko Haram is a product of poverty. It is a product of unhappiness. We are unhappy with Nigeria. Unless something is done to address it, Nigeria should expect bigger Boko Haram insurgency, Insha Allah
If you are unhappy, then perhaps it is time for you to leave Nigeria.

Alas, no such dairy section exists.

So previously when you have played in/with garbage, you also were drinking milk and eating cheese?

Wow. Really?
IslamRe: Religious Ritual Sex Being Portrayed as part of Islam in parts of Indonesia by ektbear(op): 10:15pm On Oct 14, 2012
Dairy section? Where there is milk, cheese, and yogurt?

Or do you mean "diary?"

At any rate, if it could be moved back to the politics section where it originally started, that would be superb.

1. The author described facts on the ground. It is unclear to me how facts can be ignorant.
2. Is it not likely that the reasons for my fascination with the article would best be known by me, rather than some 3rd part like Mac?

In short, why not try to use your brain a bit while posting.

The only opinions I have offered thus far in this thread are those in the first few posts. If you aren't interested in this opinion, then perhaps you and maclatunji would do well to find another thread that interests you more.

Hmm. Given global warming and rising sea levels, perhaps it isn't so bad to be landlocked like the SE.

shymexx: As for the debate, If my humble self is chosen to devour anyone, plz you guys need to set the rules-of-engagement.

I don't have time for ekt_bear's type of infantile X and Y coordinates, and propositional statements...
lmao

How does one debate or convince anyone of anything w/o propositional statements? Seems quite difficult, to put it mildly cheesy grin

PoliticsRe: Can The North Survive Without The South? by ektbear: 8:19pm On Oct 12, 2012
Katsumoto: There are many written reports about war, disease, literacy as defined by Europeans, way of life, system of government but nothing on poverty.

You know why, African society regulated itself.
Or...everyone lived lives comparable to the poor in Europe. I.e., limited access to food, low life expectancy, no money for schooling/education, spending most of your days on backbreaking labor on a farm...

The old days sucked azz and put us at a serious disadvantage when we finally started interacting with non-Africans. There is no purpose in glorifying them.
PoliticsRe: Can The North Survive Without The South? by ektbear: 8:17pm On Oct 12, 2012
Well, 95% of Nigerians would prefer to be wealthy like the US, Singapore, Europe, etc, rather than these obscure tribes in the Amazon rain forest, or some hunter-gathering society in southern Africa.

I doubt that the OP meant this in his post, for example.

It makes sense to measure prosperity, progress, wealth by a standard the overwhelming majority believe in, rather than you and a minority.

PoliticsRe: Why Do The HAUSA/FULANI Have No Middle Class? by ektbear: 8:00pm On Oct 12, 2012
What would the middle class sustain itself on?

It is hard to have a middle class without electricity, poor infrastructure, with a weak economy (weak even by Nigerian/African standards), etc.
PoliticsRe: Can The North Survive Without The South? by ektbear: 7:58pm On Oct 12, 2012
Anyway, for those who are claiming that things would be relatively fine in the North...if you are fine with Niger Republic, Chad Republic standard of living, then sure.

But if you aspire for more, then no.
PoliticsRe: Can The North Survive Without The South? by ektbear: 7:57pm On Oct 12, 2012
We didn't have widespread poverty?

So poverty came with contact with the Europeans?

Evidence for this?

How are you defining "poverty", anyways?
Foreign AffairsRe: Nobel Peace Prize Awarded To The European Union by ektbear: 7:55pm On Oct 12, 2012
How can they dash themselves award like that?

Lol.

How about you give the award to the US for maintaining the peace in Europe?

Or China for uplifting 1 billion+ people out of poverty and hunger, as maclatunji said?

This Nobel Peace Prize is an absolute joke

Mimiko should stop wasting his time, and report the ACN to the EFCC or better yet the US government. The latter doesn't take kindly to people printing fake currency...

“This is all Islam. There are those here who are only Muslims on their identity cards, but there are also people here who have been on the pilgrimage to Mecca, who come here to help out their business. Sure, adultery is against Islam but it’s no big deal if it’s to benefit your business.”
