Nigeria government does not know the value of of education else it would have been their main priority. South Korea and Japan rapid development was based on education. |
Muafrika2:And what is that logical conclusion? |
Monkey dey work Baboon dey wak. |
Mr integrity now Mr kworruption. |
Muafrika2:Well, I hope communism is fully practiced in Kenya as some wishes in Kenya then una eyes go clear. ![]() |
Muafrika2:Russia doesn't practice communism any longer because it failed woefully. They became rich after they abandoned communism. ![]() China is not practicing full communism. Communists outwardly but capitalism inwardly. ![]() If China practices full communism they will become poor instantly. ask North Korea. ![]() |
Any country planning to establish communism should quickly learn from failed Soviet Union and others and retract their steps. ![]() The way Russians are embracing religion nowadays, no bi small thing. |
gallivant:My heart, body, soul and spirit are not only meant for Nairaland hence the slow response. ![]() Nevertheless, I suppose you have gotten the message clearly enough to understand why wildlife in West Africa is not comparable to huge wildlife in East and Southern Africa, right? ![]() |
gallivant:See the above for clarification. ![]() Now, who does not know the concept of civilization? ![]() |
gallivant:Where can wildlife be found in West Africa? In the forest. What brings about disappearance of wildlife in some parts of Africa? There are many factors but in case of West Africa, it is simply deforestation. And deforestation has negative implications on the environment in terms of soil erosion, loss of biodiversity ecosystems, loss of wildlife and increased desertification among many other reasons. What brings about deforestation? logging, subsistence agriculture, collection of fuel woods, temperatures, and decreasing rainfall and growing population. What will bring about some of these features of deforestation? Civilization. How? Let us define civilization. What is civilization? A civilization (or civilisation, see spelling differences) is any complex society characterized by urban development, social stratification, symbolic communication forms (typically, writing systems), and a perceived separation from and domination over the natural environment by a cultural elite. Civilizations are intimately associated with and often further defined by other socio-politico-economic characteristics, including centralization, the domestication of both humans and other organisms, specialization of labour, culturally ingrained ideologies of progress and supremacism, monumental architecture, taxation, societal dependence upon farming as an agricultural [/b]practice, and [b]expansionism. How does civilization then correlates with deforestation? Simple. From the definition of civilization, you can see that urban development, symbol communication, socio-politico-economic characteristics, monumental architecture, farming as an agricultural practice and expansionism as the features of civilization. Therefore, we can see that civilization resulted to deforestation to give way to large urbanized Kingdoms and Empires in West Africa. Civilization brought about logging for making monumental architectures(sculptures, Houses, hand crafts etc), civilization brought about the clearing of large forest to give way to farming due to the quest for prosperous economy to build and maintain a large army like the Oyo Empire. Army also needs weapons hence the use of wood to make iron weapons,etc I can go on and on and on. All these lead/led to deforestation and lost of wildlife. I hope you understand simple thing? ![]() |
gallivant:We are talking about early civilization in Africa man. Was Egypt civilized despite the juju? ![]() Or you can't differentiate between civilization from religion? Thought they go hand in hand. ![]() |
Muafrika2:Nay! The United Nation crowned Kenya the king with confirmed analyses. ![]() Here una win. ![]() About greener pastures in Kenya, no comment. ![]() |
gallivant:Hopeless! Because I have shown to you world known facts about early civilization in West Africa, Really! Bhuuuhahaha! Chai! Google early civilization in Africa then come back and discuss. ![]() Kenya and most East and Southern Africa no dey dere, ![]() Great Zimbabwe and Ethiopia, we know, who are the rest (East and Southern Africa)? ![]() What Civilization Meant |
Muafrika2:At least it is better than living and roaming the bush unclad. Bhuuuhahaha! God said 'multiple and spread across the face of the earth to Man' so, what is the problem if West Africans spread? ![]() About the slum things, Nairobi is the king of slums in the world. ![]() |
gallivant:No! They didn't extinct because West Africans ate them all but because majority of West Africans embraced civilization hence the deforestation and expansions of Empires. East Africans(excluding Ethiopia) don't even know what is civilization until they met foreigners. ![]() Looking at the map below, says it all. ![]() All animals migrated in millions to Kenya to seek for refuge because no civilization in Kenya and many parts of East and Southern Africa. Bhuuuhahaha! ![]() Happy new year. ![]()

GERALD710:I see! But how come The Gambia has one Park in the top 10 in Africa? Africa’s 10 best safari parks For many, Africa is safari. But it's a big continent. Here's where to find the most outstanding trips Whether you're an Africa neophyte or a veteran of the savannah, there are fewer things harder to resist than a ride into the wild, cameras loaded, khakis pressed. But not all plains are created equal. 1. Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya Serengeti The traffic in The Mara is just deadly. Best for: Big cats and the great migration. The Maasai Mara national Reserve, also known as "The Mara," is the venue for arguably the most astounding wildlife spectacle on earth. Every year during the great migration an estimated 2.5 million animals make a round-trip journey of 2,000 kilometers across the Serengeti ecosystem between Tanzania and Kenya. The Mara has been described as the most prolific wildlife real-estate on earth and is perhaps Africa’s greatest safari destination. Similarly, the Serengeti, which is contiguous with The Mara to the south, is one of Africa’s truly untamed wildernesses, with seemingly endless expanses of swaying savannah where plains herds graze and lions and cheetah maintain a vigil from their lookout kopjes. For more info: www.maasaimara.com 2. Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Botswana Kalahari A good place for lion spotters. Best for: Untamed, limitless desert wilderness and the tough Kalahari lions. Botswana’s Central Kalahari Game Reserve is Africa at its rawest. The San Bushmen have lived here for an estimated 30,000 years and the first explorers knew this area as "the plains where courage fails." There are only a few lodges that allow an opportunity to explore the reserve without the safety net of a full-blown four-wheel drive expedition vehicle and in this area you could not feel farther removed from the crowds and tour buses of other parks. In the heart of the Kalahari you camp within earshot of roaring lions, in the certain knowledge that there will rarely be anyone else within 50 kilometers. For more info: www.botswanatourism.co.bw More on CNN: Best places to spot tigers in India 3. Kidepo Valley National Park, Uganda kidepo park For all your adrenalin-producing needs. Best for: Spectacular landscapes and great buffalo herds. With sprawling savannah and soaring mountains, Kidepo National Park might be the most picturesque park in Africa. Sharing borders with Sudan and Kenya’s Northern Frontier District, it is Uganda’s most beautiful, remote and least-explored park. Kidepo was once the playground of the late president Idi Amin and you can still visit the haunting ruins of a lodge that could just as easily have been designed as a massive bunker. Those who take the trouble to get here are rewarded with phenomenal wildlife sightings and a level of exclusivity that can rarely be had at any cost in neighboring countries. For more info: www.ugandawildlife.org 4. Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area, Tanzania Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area An African Eden. Best for: Near guaranteed sightings of the "Big Five" (elephant, lion, buffalo, rhino and leopard). Tanzania’s Ngorongoro Crater could be the most compact wildlife venue on the planet. From the first spellbinding glimpse of the crater and the stomach-churning descent down the inner walls, your senses are assaulted by Africa at its most intense. During a single morning you can easily rack up unforgettable sightings of elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion and leopard. If this is your first time on safari it can be the perfect choice but aficionados complain that this amazing little "lost world" makes it all too easy. For more info: www.ngorongorocrater.org More on CNN: Expert advice for safaris 5. Etosha National Park, Namibia cheetah spotting africa Who's staking out whom? Best for: Cheetah spotting and waterhole stakeouts. Etosha National Park is Namibia’s premier wildlife venue and one of Africa’s most hypnotic landscapes. The park takes its name from a local word meaning "Great White Place" and the startling white pan (which was a lake bed 12 million years ago) covers about a quarter of Etosha’s 22,300 square kilometers. The key to wildlife spotting here is to focus on the waterholes that dot these lizard-baking, mirage-haunted plains. Etosha is home to the Big Five, vast herds of gazelle and antelope and (depending on season) more than 300 species of birds. For more info: www.etoshanationalpark.co.za 6. National Parks along Gambia River, The Gambia Gambia ![]() Gambia -- ignore it and miss out. Best for: Bird watching and West African aquatic wildlife. The Gambia is effectively little more than the opposing banks of West Africa’s greatest river, but the six national parks strung along Gambia River constitute one of Africa’s most unexpected safari venues. The country has traditionally been written off by safari connoisseurs as "hunted out" but its reputation as a safari destination has been sadly understated. Not only is it a paradise for bird-watchers (with almost 600 species) but its bush is home to monkey, baboon and chimpanzee, and its crocodile-infested waters offer rarer sightings like African otter and manatee. For more info: www.accessgambia.com 7. Ahaggar National Park, Algeria Ahaggar Africa's greatest moonscape? Best for: Tuareg nomadic culture and vast, sweeping Sahara landscapes. On a map of North Africa, Algeria’s Ahaggar National Park is where the "H" would be in "SAHARA." This immense park is 40 times the size of the entire Gambian nation but, far from being a massive wasteland, the center of the world’s greatest desert is a diverse area, boasting classic dunes and a 3,000-meter mountain range. Despite its reputation, security is rarely a problem in this area: as the local Tuareg people are quick to point out, in this vast country you’re further from Algiers than you would be if you’d stayed in London. 8. Kruger National Park, South Africa Kruger One of Africa's more convenient safaris. Best for: Accessible wilderness and activity safaris. Kruger National Park, South Africa’s flagship park, is famous for the great diversity of habitats (16 macro eco-zones have been recognized here) that can be found in the 300 kilometers of wilderness that lie between the Limpopo and the Crocodile rivers. Kruger is the most accessible and best equipped of Africa’s great parks and makes an ideal venue for self-drive safaris, since it is well signposted, well maintained and even boasts restaurants and gas stations. Apart from wonderful wildlife sightings, other great adventure draw-cards of Kruger are its range of multi-day hiking trails and mountain-biking tours. For more info: www.krugerpark.co.za 9. Okavango Delta, Botswana Okavango Delta Wait till you see what's lurking beneath. Best for: Huge crocodiles and mokoro (dugout) safaris. Okavango Delta, the world’s biggest inland delta, is a wetland wilderness that is almost the same size as Israel. Here the waters that fell as highland rains in far-off Angola are finally swallowed by the sands of Botswana’s Kalahari. A waterborne safari, paddling over the clear waters (no murky swamps or mangroves in the Okavango) in a mokoro dugout can either be an unforgettably serene experience or one of Africa’s most nerve-wracking wildlife encounters … depending on the proximity of the Delta’s great pods of hippos and its six-meter crocs. For more info: www.okavangodelta.com 10. Perinet Reserve, Madagascar Perinet Madagascar's wildlife gets cute. Best for: Giant lemur and many of Madagascar’s unique creatures. Perinet Reserve is the ideal place for the safari buff who claims to have seen it all. An astounding 80 percent of Madagascar’s wildlife can be found only on the mysterious "island of the moon." Perinet is the location of the country’s greatest tracts of Indian Ocean rainforest and the only place to see the giant indri. This great fluffy, black-and-white lemur (looking like a seven-year-old child in a panda suit) sends up a haunting siren call that carries far across the mist-shrouded canopy. It is one of the most unforgettable sounds of the African wilderness. http://travel.cnn.com/africas-10-best-national-parks-218773/ |

If our policy is to encourage local production why are the Ministers, the CBN governor, Special advisers to the President, Governors, House of Representatives, Senators and even the President himself not riding Inosson or Proforce cars (though it is a military car but can be moderated to civil car like Hummer)? They make policies for the masses and not for themselves. If the foundation be rotten how can... Na wa ooooooo. |
GERALD710:It is a disgrace of biblical proportions that the entire Nairobi County does not have a public fire engine in working condition,” the paper wrote in an editorial last month. “When (government leaders) were debating their budgets, they did not deem it fit to set aside money either to buy new ones or repair the old ones. But they did set aside money to build mansions for governors, big vehicles for county executives and other needs without a direct benefit to Kenyans. The paper said the collapse of the fire department means responses to disasters is in the hands of private companies and the military. https://www.google.com.ng/amp/www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/kenyas-main-international-airport-and-hub-for-east-africa-closed-after-it-is-engulfed-by-fire-8749221.html%3Famp |

Icon4s:Hehehehe! FIFA wan do ojoro. Lol. |
safarigirl:I am not against the increase to 48 teams as long as substantial numbers of slots are allocated to Africa. What I understand from the source I provided below is that the 16 countries that finish highest in the qualifying rounds for the 2026 World Cup would automatically make the group stage of the global football showcase, then the other 32 would play in a preliminary phase, in the country where the World Cup is being played. After what seems as a playoff, the 16 countries that won will qualify to play in the group stages with the other best 16 countries that finish highest in the qualifying rounds but the other 16 losers will go home. It means we continue with a normal World Cup for 32 teams, though 48 teams go to the party. This is where I do not understand. Will they divide into 12 groups of 4 teams or 16 groups of 3 teams? But I think FIFA wants the former because you don't expect a team to play playoff and 3 matches before proceeding to the round of 16. Well, It depends on where we want to look at it. Since, it is not about seeding based on the useless FIFA ranking, I will consider it. First of all, how do they know or choose the 16 countries with the highest qualifications? That one needs to be spelt out first before I proceed. Because FIFA fit do mago mago take favor European teams. I dey observe.

Yonce:God's love towards man and woman but there is also God's will. God created man in his own image and likeness, meaning we are God. Does it makes Man equal with God? |
When Bible writes about genealogy, Women are always silence. The genealogy of Jesus only mentioned 4 women because of their exceptional faith. When it pertained to inheritance, Women where also silence. Meaning they were never given anything. Starting with Abraham who had many children apart from Ishmael and Isaac. Abraham gave gifts to his female children but never divided the inheritance equally. When Jacob divided inheritance, nothing was giving to the only female child. When Moses shared the current land after they conquered the inhabitants, Women were given nothing, save the daughters of Zelophehad of the family of Manasseh because he had no 'son'. Meaning if he had sons nothing for the daughters. Infact, the daughters where not allowed to marry outside the family of Manasseh. Why? So that the inheritance doesn't move to another family. In the Bible, inheritance are giving to female only if the man has no son. Number 26 : 7. Why? because God wants to keep name of the man. Man is the head of the house. God is the head of Man. That is the order. Woman means' from Man' or 'came from Man'. So, how can what came from man(Woman) be equal with Man? But Yorubas law says 'ori o ju ori lo' mean One head is not better than another' |
