In your mind that GSM repairs you do in computer village rate you as hard working and contribute to the GDP of the economy,abi?

You are too dumb a person to engage in any discourse.So look for your class.

Dunderhead. Swerve abeg

hatchy:
They should continue deceiving themselves in government.

Statistics that does not reflect the reality on ground.

Workers are laid off daily,the naira is still sliding against the dollars whenever the CBN fails to inject forex into the economy, while the prices of basic food items remain at a stagnant high.

So how is the economy out of recession biko nu!

What reality were you looking out for? That free money should scatter on the street? Or that government should dash you money by sitting lame in your room doing nothing?

Recession or no recession, you must get your a.ss up working. Recssion has nothing to do with hardworking individual

I noticed the third part. I went to buy myself a new phone. And also a case to make it look better and under protection from dropping. Immediately I had my case on the phone, I noticed that the network went off. I quickly call the seller that I am returning the phone because the signal strength is weak unnecessarily. In that process, I removed the phone cover and the battery cover. I was heading for my sim cards and memory cards. Immediately the case is off, I noticed whatsapp messages troop in. I quickly checked the signal and I found it is very strong as expected. I went out and the network was very ok. What could be the problem before now, I thought. I quickly go for the pulse and had it on the phone again. Like a flash, the network is out again. So I concluded the pulse makes my phone signal weak. I went to the seller and fetched for lighter phone case but the result is almost the same. No signal. Ever since then, I concluded to use the phone without case. All I need is extra carefulness so that the phone doesn't slip and drop to the ground.

ritababe:
and we are not feeling it abi? only on paper.

please when will arsene Wenger leave? am really angry.

How are you supposed to feel it? You want it shared while you do nothing?

No wonder poverty in the North is at alarming level despite the number of years they have held sway of the presidency. Nature can't be decieved

Why do you care now about the appointment? Why all the rable rouser and noises?

The North held sway and their region isn't developing much like yours. Why then are you wailing?

Appointment of your kinsmen does not translate to development of your region. Even if someone from thr closest family house in your village is appointed today, it will not change anything about you unless you or yours family or your region. So why the fuss?

walemoney007:
this is bullshit,Nigeria has 6 geopolitical region,why should a region be left out?

I am sorry you haven't answered the question.

First, you do not want to have anything to do with this government.

Secondly, you are fuming because your kinsmen were not appointed into the 'government you detest so much"s agency.

And thirdly, I cannot see how an appointment translate to development of your region. Maybe you need to help me unravel that instead of rambling about.

How does appointment of your kinsmen translateto development in your geopolitical zone?

Nonaira1:
Dude even if they add all south up, North still has more.

There are 5 southerners compared to 10 northerners. Funny you lots do not even produce ONE SINGLE OIL.

Even SE they neglected to include produces more than you do.

The parasitic and injustice of North towards south really needs to end. And will you shut up about degrees and experiences. Everyone knows that southerners of all sides are more educated than northerners. Therefore, even if we go that route, there should still be more southerners than northerners

How does appointment of your kinsmen translate to regional development?

Timi1990:
Send me a PM . I can help you pay

Sent. Please reply

Hello guys.

Please I will appreciate it if someone here would be able to help me pay for an app on Google play. The App is Poweramp. I have the trial version which has expired long ago. I have been making painstaking efforts to pay for it with my cards to no avail. My paypal too will not connect with my bank account to send money.

Anyone who is ready to help. The app is just $3.99. The naira equivalent will be paid. I pay ₦500 as service charge. Thanks

This is not gruesome enough. They should be fed to pigs.

I have long advocated that soldiers bullet should be covered with pig fat. Pork is halal in Islam and feeding or killing them with pig stuff will sent them straight to hell. We need to start fighting them with what they detest and hate most.

Army should start pig farm in the North and those boko haram memebers should be fed to pigs

I downloaded Poweramp about two weeks ago and i must confess, I am very impressed with the sound produced by this app. This is the first music app that I fall in love with. However, I noticed I will need to pay for the app if I would need to continue using it. I habe tried all my cards but none work.

Please can someone guide me how I can pay for the app?

hian:
Via Chinese site??
O Nigerian ecommerce platforms ??
Is it Nigerian affiliated MasterCards??

Chinese

Is it possible to buy with my mastercard?

shadeyinka:
No! Thanks to Mental Colonisation which we refused to drop even in the year 2017. We are still looking for an oyinbo who will come and "dash" us technology and development.

We are still using their mode of economy till now, our elites can't think of something else.

Its pathetic!
A country of almost 200million who are direction less. SMH

Islam activities should be banned just like it is done in China

Christianity too should be banned just like they did in Japan because they are a threat to national unity.

shadeyinka:
I know.

I was particular about how the Japanese especially desired to have technology "at all cost" and they succeeded.

Buddhaism is rooted in spiritual awakening and enlightenment. A Buddha is an enlightened one. Everyone crave to be Buddha.

In Yoruba, Ifa is the voice of Orunmila (baba kekere fi nu sogbon meaning the short man who embodied wisdom) A Yoruba man who is initiated to Ifa corcle crave for wisdom and good character.

Christianity is against knowledge and philosophy. The bible has warned against taking on oneself philosophy and knowledge. That is why we have sheep and dunderheads in the country today

shadeyinka:
Religion isn't the only factor that ties one to his root. How about language, culture, traditions and history.

There are several things good with our roots but we must be like the Japanese or Chinese. Take what you know fancies you from western culture while not loosing your identity as an African, a Chinese or a Japanese.

Most Japanese are Atheists...

Buddhism is a non theistic religion. Just like Jainism. They still have Gods and believe it exist.

shadeyinka:
I still strongly disagree with you.

I am highly Spiritual but then, I am not mentally enslaved. I know that several Nigerians like you are also free from this disease Christians, Muslims, Atheists, Deists and Agnostics alike.

I have come across several intelligent Technologically inspired Nigerians (religious believe is not a factor). The problem however is that the Slave rules us because they have money to spread around and our society is still generally backward.

It is on the major sides. Igbo language is fast dying. Igbo religion is gasping for breathe. Same goes to the North and many part of Yoruba nation.

Ask a typical Yoruba son where Odùduwà comes from. He will tell you he is from Mecca. The other one who is Christiam will tell you he is fallen angel. WEe are confused and lost. All thanks to Christianity and Islam

shadeyinka:
I think you are too hard on the religious factor.

If you look deeper to unravel why a few whiltes were able to enslave the blacks, you will find out that religion was not really part of it.

The whites had a plan, we didn't. So they came and connived with "Black Slave Traders" who by the way were animists by religion. They extended their rule by conquering one king after another. The Benin kingdom was a good example. Of the whole of west Africa had united under a single umbrella, this wouldn't be possible.

Interestingly, we practice our own Brand of Christianity and Islam as an extension of African traditional religions and believes.

Me, I see as us exchanging a Polytheistic Religions for Monotheistic religions (Islam and Christianity). Other than that, the problem is Mental Slavery.

Mental slavery is tied to religion.

Religion defines how you think and view the world around you. The rules are in the book. You just have to follow it.

It is religion who make some put on bomb vest while the other religion ban their women from wearing trouser. Have you seen Deeper lifer before? Are those guys thinking staright? Have you seen turbaned Muslims before? Are those guys thinking straight to you? Religion goes a long way than worshipping God/god. It is the center of our existence. And when it is controlled by foreign bodies, we are in trouble.

shadeyinka:
I may not agree with your conclusion about us returning to our traditional religious roots for development to take place. You have well underscored that religion of Islam and Christianity are not adverse to Technological development so that the issue is FREEDOM of the BRAIN.

You can not be free whem you aint ready to. Identify with your root

shadeyinka:
The fact that we are not religiously homogeneous like Malaysia or Pakistan is the problem

They are not religiously homogeneous in India, Japan and China. Whichever way they turn, they tend to look in within. African dont look within. They look after what master left for them. Christianity and Islam is the worst thing that happens Africa. Bith religion breeds hate, divides and ignorance.

A religion or system that does not improve your knowldge toward your history and identity is evil. Islam and Christianity took away your history and distort your identity.

shadeyinka:
I am glad you separated spirituality fro religion. I agree with all you have said except for your conclusion in the last paragraph. Where you said that the root of African problem is religion. I don't think so!

Check out Politics in Western Nigeria.
Voting is usually not based on religion but on sentiments which end up limiting the whole area.

The question is, if in Nigeria, we are ALL Muslims, is that singular factor enough to cause an underdevelopment? We need to look at countries like Malaysia, India and Pakistan. They are highly religious but developed. Why? Because they were homogeneous.

Religion /Spirituality becomes a problem only when it becomes the central focus at the expense of technological development or a source of infighting.

Up to the 70s, UK, USA was religious (on the average).

Get me right: Religion isn't needed for Technological Development AND Technological Development is not required for Spirituality.

Politics is Nigeria is enough to see how directionless Nigerians are. Nigerians vote mostly base on religious view. Nigerian political sphere is none base on what and which religion you belong to. It is more like Christian versus Muslims other than political ideology. APC is seen as Islamic political while APGA and the likes are seen as Christain political party. The church has turned to political campaign ground and Muslim groom for political office by using the voice of Imam to campign for policians. Politicians now believe they are Godsents and not public servants.

The same thing is obtainable in Gambia. The political leader is backing his stand down on Allah. That is how it applies in all countries in Africa. Religion is the opium of the mass. Elite will take advantage of thay to control the mass. Religion is a tool. Apolitical weapon and the masses are stripped off their senses by it.

India is not homogeneous when it comes to religion. I believe india has the highest number of spiritual groups and cults in the world. They are not much better as poverty is still in high rank there but technologically, they are doing better than we here. They are doing better because they looked into their selves. They hold unto their identiy. They didnt rely on their new tags. They didnt adopt British culture or way of life. They followed theie path by returning back to their root. We in Africa are still running after slaves master because we are conquered and chose to remain conquered. We need to go back to our root if we want to develop.

Islam has it spiritual form. The form of Islam practiced in Nigeria is the directionless one. Islam contributed to world development. Reigning from medicine, Mathematics and general science. Spirituality form of Islam is called lm al-raml. How many Nigeria Muslims practice Ashura? Muslims here are fake puppet. The Islamic scholara here are blockheads. The Muslim Civilisation was outstanding in its outlook on the universe, humanity and life. And the science foundations financed by Islamic communities in those countries is outstanding. Muslims here are terrorists, rampaging nuisances and slowpokes.

The same goes with Christianity in Nigeria and Africa at large. When it comes to intelligence deficiency, you need to check the churches. We now have youths who think praying to one imaginary God will bring them success. This is a world were JW hates on Catholic. CAC hating white garment church. And many others. We focus more on tithe than financing research projects.

38% of the UK and USA are SWBR (Spiritual without being religious). More than 25% are non believers and many more are secularists. USA has long thrown religion out of state amd public system.

Africans need to throw away religion of the foreigners and take their own if we want to develop at all. The truth is spirituality defines the way you live. Your spirituality encompass language, dress, marriage and many things that has to do with humanity. A muslim hausa has forgetton Umbagiji and only shout Allah. They dress like Arab and live like Arab because theie identity is lost. A typical christiam will want to speak English. We despise Orisha but shout about Jehovah. We want to dress and live like European. We can only try but can not be them. why are we them wasting our time?

An animal is far better than human who have no identity and value. Africans iwll never move an inch if we dont return bwck to our root. That is fact

Muafrika2:
And also freedom of movement or migration.

That's the sad part. It seems our traditional systems will have to die for unity.

What unity has Christianity and Islam brought?

The traditional system is the best thing that ever happen to Africans. We threw the golden opportunity away and choose to embrace a junk sold to us by foreigners.

shadeyinka:
I understand your disdain for religion and its effect in Africa. However, religion isnt really the problem...the problem is the kind of culture we have unknowingly adopted.

The OP, was about asking the questions:
Why we dont think scientifically? Could it be that we are less intelligent?

Why is it that we don't value perfections? Why are we still using mortar and pestles in the year 2017: no addition to what had been given to us by our predecessors.

Scientific development isn't anti religion, it is a complement. Apollo mission didn't succeed because of lack of religion. No! India is religious but they are developed (even though not as much as the west).

The points were for us to recognize issues that will never change around us and deliberately use them to our advantage rather than a disadvantage.

Wrong sir.

Spirituality gave birth to science. The modern technological development today tends to be borrowed from ancient spiritual thoughts. A very quick example is astrology which stem from ancient astolatry. Another is chemistry which stem from alchemy. Another is Geography and earth science which come from ancient spirituality called Geomancy. Agriculture as it is known tends to come from spirituality. Almost all the knowledge today is woven into ancient knowledge which was later developed.

I want you to understand the fact that the first learning house is from spiritual temples. The formal education of today, writings, broadening knowledge starts from temple. The first university in the world was a temple. The Mathematics and physics of today have it cradle in the templesl of Gods. I hope you are familiar with patheogoras and how he came to Egypt to learn and develop his theory.

Have you ever wondered why scientific dicoveries are named after Greek, Egypt and Roman Gods? I can state many examples. Before advent of telescope, ancient men who worship Mars knew it was red. They knew venus and identify the farther stars. Modern grew in knowledge to discover that these things were truth.

Now, India practise majorly Hinduism which is spirituality. Alot of people mistaken religion for spirituality. They are far different things. Spirituality tends to connect one with nature. Religion tends to glorify mumbo jumbo. That is where the problem comes from. Spirituality is nature bond while religon is founded by a person or group of persons. Spirituality is not mostly organised and with no code or conducts. Religion is organised, has set of rules. ethics, codes and conducts.

Spirituality unites person. Religion cause enmity. Christian hating on pagans and muslim. Christians hate themselves. Catholic against pentecostal among others. In spirituality, an Ogun worshipper does not care if you worship Amahodia or Thor.

African havr thrown away the spiritual gift they had and adopted a foreign religion which they do not understand. The greek gift we call religion has beclouded us and changed who we are to savage and puppets. We changed our way of life. We demonized our life. Some Christians claimed they are the cursed decendant of Ham. Some black muslims agree that they are slaves. All because their religion teach them that. Out religion makes us hate ourselves more. We have growing number of churches and mosques than schools and research centers. We have lost our identity. We have forgetton our history and who we are.

You might ask why we didnt develop anything. The tradional medicine is a thing. I have seen medical scientists researching on trdo medicine and found it potent. How do you think our parent know this without going to school?

I wish you are Yoruba or know the knowledge of Ogun. In Yoruba, we believe Ogun moulded bone. Ogun is the God of Iron. It is everything know as iron. In science, calcium makes bone. Calcium is a yellow metalic element. Now tell.......Is the thought of our parents not correct? Is Ogun in this case not Calcium? Try to read up more about Yoruba Gods. You will see how they relate with science. It is just obvious.

Africans must return to her root of it want to grow. India takes unto Hinduism, China takes onto Shintoism, Japan takes unto Buddahism, Europe takes unto Christianity. Israel takes unto Judaism. Arab takes unto Islam. Why cant we return to our own root? Why cant we seek the knowledge of our fathers?

The root of Africa problem is religion. Religion has taken away our thinking faculty. We look toward heaven and forget our environment. We care about sins rather than advancement. Nigeria is exporting religion which the world have long thrown out of the window. Christianity and Islam has killed more Africans than AIDs. Can you tell us one medicine that is in the bible or quran? Can you tell us one scientific development in Africa that is driven by Chrisyianity and Islam? I will give you more than a thousands evil plagues both religioj brought on us. We are blindfolded. We need serious emancipation

Where are the pastors and imams that claim God speaks with them? They should ask their Omniscient and Omnipresent God/Allah where the girls are. This problem wouldnt have lingered this long if God can tell us where the girls are. That is the lasting solution in this case. Our intelligence gathering can not achieve anything. They should call on their Gods to help me search through the forest. God should not take our money in form of Zakat and tithe alone.

You Christian and Muslim hypocrites should hide your eye in shame. Your God is useless and impotent. It is a shame a country thay values Allah and Jehovah more than intelligence and common reasoning should be ashamed. Your God is dead.

I am thinking loud. It is better to have this girls dead rather than having them missing. A nuclear bomb should be lauched in Sambisa forest. Everything should vaporize.

what's wrong with phone or online divination?

Everything is wrong. Babalawo divining for people online is a scammer. Please runaway if you meet with someone who claims he do some spiritual checkings on you from the internet
