Ddokie:
A man makes a mockery of the christian faith in connivance with Muslims, and he is publicly mocked not beating but mocked. And you say there is no justification for that.

God will deal with each person according to his actions.

Wicked souls.
@bolded: It's obvious they couldn't wait for God to deal with each person according to his actions, they had to deal with this one themselves.

Tell yourself the truth, if it were Muslims that did this, y'all would be shouting intolerance. Since when did Christians start physically harassing people for "mocking Christianity"? Is any of those men that harrased him really righteous? Are you going to pretend this is about mocking Christianity or you're telling me you really don't see this is just people's inability to play politics without violence? If he stands with Tinubu and decided dress as a Bishop for him, how is it the duty of these intolerant men to assault him for that?

The best you can do for Peter Obi right is to condemn this ugly act. The more you support it, the more you create a beastly image of what his government would be like.

This sounds like a good response, but another question that begs for an answers is, how much of the housekeeping tasks like cleaning, laundry, cooking, bathing kids, etc. is the man ready to take up? I know this is a sensitive subject, but the reality is, in societies where the two parties pool resources together to build their home, they also share the home duties; something an African man would never do. We can't eat our cake and have it.

Caterpillar, most likely to grow into a moth!

Moth larvae are usually the ones with elaborate features and colours like this one has. Funny the actual moths are ugly/scary looking themselves.
I believe it's a butterfly caterpillar. Moth caterpillars normally have 'pines', hairs or some sort of projections from thier body. They're almost never this smooth. And yes, they might be ugly, but they're harmless and so soft.

It's a caterpillar. That's the larval stage of butterflies and moths. However, this one is likely to be a butterfly because of the hairless body.

RepoMan007:
What is their problem ?

Religious inclination is suppose to be for private affairs but like muslims, these darkness people try to impose theirs on the unsuspecting public.
Y'all need to understand that there's nothing like "unsuspecting worshipers" when it comes to religion. Religion is a thing of the mind/spirit, therefore, any act you perform without knowing it cannot be called worship. A worshipper has to acknowledge, accept and believe in whatever they're worshipping. If your teacher asks you to kneel down, and there happens to be a crucifix nearby, it doesn't make you a Christian. So the presence of this bull doesn't make everyone there a worshiper. For those that see it as entertainment, it remains that to them.

It is easy to criticize from the outside. The reality is, we do most of the things we criticize when/if we find ourselves in the position of those we're criticizing. Yes, response time can always be improved. But then again, it is worth noting that the poor response time isn't necessarily because HR wants to keep the candidate waiting. There are factors that lead to this such as the number of candidates, interviewers availability, approval process, etc.

I have many numbers and they were sending messages to all of them, thereby making it hard for me to track our chats. So I blocked them on all my numbers except one. Maybe that's not blocking since we still chat. I guess I've never really blocked anyone. Anything serious enough to make me block you would be serious enough to make me tell you to your face not to chat with me anymore. I just leave the channel open cause I'm a proponent of second chance.

But a sanction on Russian citizens over a " Putin war" is justified in your hypocrisy.

Kindly stop mentioning or quoting me.
I have a lot of facts and figures to educate and puncture all of your silly postulations here but I do not have the time to engage someone like you in that regard.

I dont banter words or debate with your likes, please.


Move on, thanks.
Again, you did not answer the question. You are busy attacking the US and West. Whether they're justified or not does directly justify Putin. If I tell you yes, the US is a beast, how does that make it right for Putin to invade Ukraine? If all you can do is to keep mentioning where the US has gone wrong, then it's obvious you can't come up with logical points to back up Putin's war. You cannot justify A's aggression towards B on the basis that C is a hypocrite. That's not how logic works.

I asked the justification of Russia's aggression towards Ukraine and you wrote a paragraph attacking the West. You guys are incorrigible. The West might be a beast, but I'm sorry, you're not addressing the question. Leave it for those who have something to say about the war.

You are just a blockhead that will never understand. If you don't understand the future consequence of ukraine's pro western stance lemme give you two.
1. Ukraine is the easiest route to invade russia.
2. The azov batallion was outlawed in europe as an ultra nationalist group. The have been responsible for killing russian minorities who are majority in dombass bt 2day are celebrated as heroes 4 defending NATO interest.

Go read ahbeg, you are too dumb to argue global politics.
At least, you're off the path of "the US has done it before". Regarding your points:

1) Ukraine is the easiest route to invade Russia. How is is this a reason to invade the country? Are you making reference to the proposed NATO membership? Russia invaded Ukraine when NATO has not even accepted the country. NATO had not gotten the unanimous vote to take in Ukraine (and would probably never get it) when Russia invaded the country and termed it peacekeeping. Besides, virtually all Russia's neighbors are NATO members already. But let's keep these aside, let's assume that was really the issue, the Ukrainian president has said more than once that they'd only join EU and drop the idea of NATO. So this NATO excuse is no longer valid.

2) The claim that these Russian speaking Ukrainians are killed in Ukraine is yet to be proved. Yes, they were internal crisis and they identified as the targets/victims just like Biafrans do in Nigeria. This does not in any way give Putin the right to invade the country except you're telling me these Russian speaking Ukrainians are Putin's responsibility (which would imply he never really accepted them being part of Ukraine). Fact is, Russian speaking minorities in Ukraine are Ukrainians as Yoruba speaking people in Benin Republic are Beninese. Therefore, invading a sovereign country is neither a solution nor Russia's responsibility. We have Hausas in Niger, Yorubas, etc. If these sets of people were to have issues in their countries, Nigeria's move would not be to disintegrate country on the basis of linguistic affiliation except, of course, if we've always had plans to take back certain parts of these countries. Let's not lie to ourselves, Putin has always wanted to get back these part of Ukraine from day one. First, it was Crimea and now DONBAS. We've seen his top military man say it. Ukraine is doing exactly what any country would do. No country in this world would ever sit back and watch another country disseminate it for any reason. None.

I'll ignore all the name calling. I take it you guys don't know how to presents your argument free of fallacy.

You be ekpa....

Who sanctions your west when they go on there friendly visit of mayhem on other countries?

The relics of their most recent friendly visits are still there in Syria and Libya which had spilled into Nigeria. Who sanctioned them?

If you truly had a loamy grey matter in that skull of yours to qualify as someone who is rational over unfounded emotions in his analysis you would have been able to understand that Ukrainians goofed or were conned into electing a comedian in the mould of Mr Ibu for a leader. An error that has only succeeded in turning their country into the theatre of a proxy cold war of the superpowers.

If your head was finely screwed on, you would have been sensible enough to realise that Russia being able to withstand these gang-up is a testament to the fact that no man or nation is an Island and that it is a good thing to see how inter-dependent we all are after all whoich is a good thing in terms of policing one another.

I'd prefer you stopped mentioning or quoting me because I dont have the time to banter with airheads who revel in their ignorance.
It's amazing how you managed to write multiple paragraphs without giving a single justification for the invasion. I asked what justifies this invasion and you're calling names and telling me about the atrocities of other nations. I ask you again, if Egypt invades Nigeria, would you support them on the basis of "who sanctions the West when they invade another country"? We can talk about different invasions in the past including the ones done by the US and the ones done by this Russia you're supporting, and I'd gladly share my view on each. However, disapproving these invasions does not have a bearing on my stance in the Russia/Ukraine war cause Ukrainians are not responsible for whatever grudges I might have with the US. I don't have to be a fan of America to criticize Russia. That's placing sentimental attachment over logic. Putin's war in Russia is absurd unjustified regardless of how you want to view it. You know this, and that's why y'all always go "what about the US". If there was any logical reason to invade Ukraine, you wouldn't be talking about the US.

Same old story. So if Egypt invades Nigeria, it's OK because the US invaded Iraq? How does that logic work? Ukrainians deserve to suffer because of the atrocities of the US? Like I said, it's not logic that drives you. What drives you is your anti-West sentiment. Otherwise, you'd have seen how illogical you sound when you say you're OK with Russian aggression to their neighbors because the US in North America has invaded another country in the past.

I hope you're not one of those that justify US and NATO invasion but condemn Russia in Ukraine?? kiss
99% of you would gladly take a Western visa. You know that is true and if you say otherwise, you'd deceiving yourself. That's the reality. Language aside, places like the middle East have a closed culture (not open to interferences) and as such, you'd never fit in regardless of how long you stay there. I have stayed in the middle East and I stay in the West now. I know where I felt free and more integrated. But that's a different discussion.

This Russian aggression did not just start in 2022. It has been there since 1994. But narrowing down to the latest invasion, tell me what led to it. I am curious cause when it happened, Putin said it was a peacekeeping mission. Then it was about Ukraine wanting to join NATO. And finally, it's about Russia wanting to "liberate" a certain part of Ukraine and declare it independence. So which one is it exactly?

And why is it that each time y'all are asked to present your reason for supporting Russia, you say the US invaded other countries. So Ukrainians deserve to suffer because of the atrocities of the US? How does that logic work? So if Egypt invades Nigeria today, it's OK because the US has invaded some countries in the past? Is it not obvious that you guys are not able to keep anti-West sentiment aside when judging the Ukraine/Russia War? I don't need to be a US fanboy to criticize the invasion. I am neither American nor Russian.

So just stop parroting the same response. Only those who can't reason for themselves measure the validity of thier position by news outlets.
