Babalawo is not God


Stop giving Satan praises



The only reason people believe in God is because they believe Satan exist. The religious people are more conscious of the Devil than the "Devil himself".

Family / Re: Married Civil Servants In Today's Economy, How are you coping? by gaddafe(m): 5:50pm On Jul 10, 2023
Dimaya:
I am writing this post in response to my initial post that made front page yesterday in which a lady said she won't get pregnant until her husband starts earning over 200K

See here:
https://www.nairaland.com/7729988/girl-wont-get-pregnant-husband/

People's reactions got me thinking heavily because nobody addressed the obvious elephant in the room:

unreasonable civil service salaries



In the original post's video, it was established that Nigerian civil servants starting out with a degree ( level 8 ) earn an average of 75K monthly.

And it takes as much as 15-20 years before they can earn close to 200K monthly.

With the current high cost of living (particularly food, transportation and housing), it seems the government doesn't expect civil servants to be able to support their families on their salaries.

This begs the question: does the Nigerian government pay enough for civil servants to get married?

And also, if you're a married civil servant earning less than 100K, how on earth are you able to meet your obligations today?

How?




the video referenced in the previous post:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t66DkQl0j50

I seriously doubt you stay or reside in Nigeria. If you do then you've been cut off from reality for one reason or the other.

The civil servants you're worried about are actually the middle class in the society in case you've forgotten. If you're bothered about the middle class then what do you have to say about the low class. The poor. I guess we will leave that for another day.

In case you've forgotten, there are graduates who are security men as we speak, some are private school teachers, some are running after moving vehicles just to make daily sales. I'm talking about degree holders. Some even have masters. Let's just leave these matters for another day

Les:
The Lion has pride but it's not really the strongest compared to other strong animals.

I don't know the possibility of the anaconda constricting the bear 🐻 and the gorilla but it might not work because those two beasts are super strong. If the grizzly bear grabs the anaconda by the head with its strong jaws and sharp claws, it's gone for real.

The real fight there is between the grizzly bear and the silverback gorilla, I don't know who will win but I go for Kingkong. That beast is strong!

Do a quick goggle and verify how easy it is for a leopard to kill a gorilla. If it's so easy for a leopard to kill a gorilla, then it's super easy for a jaguar to kill it not to talk of a lion. There is no competition here, the bear comes out alive. The only chance the lion will have is if it came with its pride else if it is a one on one fight the bear will kill it easily. The bear can stand easily with its hind legs like a human plus it's slap is deadly. The last thing the lion will see is the bears huge slap landing it's face

people keep saying obi will win in court,caan a court autually remove tinubu is this even possible,do people know the type of power a president has?, what if the court gives order and he doesn't obey, we saw the case of buhari disobeying court orders, so i'm asking is it even possible?

Do you even know what you are saying? It is the constitution that gives you the power to act as president. If the same constitution removes that power, then you go. Let's say for saying sake, the court asks Tinubu to leave and he refuse. Do you think the military will be wrong to shoot Tinubu and assume power indefinitely?

You see the problem with distortion of facts?
The OP disingenuously included areas that had no business with all these and was ignored, now this.

Are you talking about a united Southern Nigeria or an Eastern Nigeria?

These areas you mention are parts of Western Nigeria.

Whoever wrote that article ranted about South South not being a geographical entity and was carved out of SouthEast (which is false). But refused to acknowledge the flaw that Nigeria was divided into 3 protectorates by the colonialists. With his knowledge of geography, why didn't he question the absence of a Southern Protectorate?

The point is so far this issue is approached with insincerity, there will be no headway, even in a million years.

The people you call South-South today are distinct people with their own cultures, heritage and ancestry who have been indigenous to their homes for millenniums. Their very hospitable nature and culture has turned out to be their bane.
Today they are being asked by certain people
'what's the meaning of your name?'











I thought I was the only one that noticed the flaw in the write up. The OP knows nothing about the South - South.
Family / Re: Urgent Advice Needed To Protect My Mum From Depression. by gaddafe(m): 5:33pm On Jun 09, 2023
Blackazuma99:
Good day to everyone in this forum, please I am in desperate need of your advice.

Early 2014 she lost her dad, 2016 she lost her only brother (my uncle) and then the worst happened in 2021,i lost my father which is her husband, and since then God has been faithful, I graduated same year, my elder sister got a good job same year, we got our first family house same with other benefits.

But the problem has been my mum, she's always depressed and always thinking, thinking of my late dad, we have tried our best as the children to make her happy, especially me the first son. Please i need advice on what to do, I really don't want my mother to die of depression 😞.


Quickly take her to the general Hospital or a Psychiatrist or neurologist. Whichever you have access to will advice you on what to do. I had a neighbour who suffered serious depression with the cause of depression similar to what you wrote here. It started gradually until it resulted in serious mental disorder where the woman will just be talking while moving along the road. Later it degenerated to her urinating on herself while walking along the road. I really felt pity on her before she finally died. Please help your mum now that you can. If it is depression, it can be cured. There is a medicine for depression because I myself have suffered from it and I took drugs that could lift my spirit. The drug is yellowish and small but I don't know the name because there was no name on it. Those type given by the pharmacist in the hospital. Before then I didn't know there was any medicine that was capable of lifting one's mind from a depressed state to normal state.

Nigeria also need to learn their military doggedness.
Buhari and his Army are still fighting Boko boys and still no victory in sight. What a shame.

American armies are also in Nigeria, the UK have a military base here too. What are they doing? They claim they are assisting in fighting Boko haram yet no victory in sight. They couldn't even rescue the Chibok girls

My dear, please do not look for the girl at all. If there had been any issue about the pregnancy, the parents could not have let go.
I have a feeling they must have later found out the truth.
Please let the sleeping dog lie and move on with your life.

I initially wanted to say you are very stupid for saying this. But after seeing you are a female, I understood why you said that. That guy had suffered from a serious emotional trauma and you are saying he should let sleeping dogs lie. What is sleeping here? If it was a girl that suffered such amount of emotional trauma when she was a kid, would you advise the girl to let sleeping dogs lie? Why is it that most of you female find it difficult to have even the least Compassion on someone when he is a male? That guy had suffered a serious emotional trauma and the least he needs is to clear his name. He should confront the girl's father. There is no where in the write up where the OP mentioned anything about a child being involved. Why are people talking of DNA?

Baba ur funny ooooo.
The main reason why I go like confront her is just to know why she mentioned my name and also meet the father in case if he said bad things for my head.

Later one my guy for street told me he used to see the girl always enter one barbing saloon in the night and come out late. But the case has died down already and I didn't want any issue then. But now as a man, I go ask the girl about the barber shop she used to enter late hours back then, if she go respond.

Do not do that. That's none of your business now. Your business is to meet the father and clear your name. Meeting the girl and asking her of such can go either way especially as you don't know who she later turned out to be. Meet the Dad and the man will explain things to you. If she later finds the need to apologize, fine. If not, let her be.

Thanks but don't you think it will open old wound especially for the father? Though I am concerned if the man said or laid and curse back then.

Go back and clear your name. Forget whatever issues that will arise. The girl and her parents can deal with that. Tell them you want to clear your name. . Make sure it's the girl's father you see not the girl. The girl per se knows the truth and the reason for lying. It might also be that the girl might have confessed the truth and her family knows why she lied but let the father know the issue affected you psychologically hence the need to clear your name.

Important notice, bag doesn't last. The material is so soft and could tear at any time. I used mine for about two months. You would think someone tore it with blade after the few weeks.

They can ban, but the word of God will prevail, not even the Roman empire could stop Christianity, check history Christianity grows more under persecution and hostility.
Lol
China that ban the bible and made preaching the gospel a criminal offense is having her citizens converting to Christianity in droves.

Are you sure you quoted the right person? What has my comment got to do with banning Christianity? That kids are prevented from the holy books has nothing to do with banning Christianity but a lot to do with corrupting their minds because of the violence, gore and some sexually explicit stuff that developmental psychologist researched are not good for kids. When they grow to a suitable age, you can allow them access. Except you want people to filter or change the words in the holy books because of kids which the Bible itself is against .

Talking of Roman Empire, I'm not aware there was any serious effort in stopping religion anytime in history. If you are talking of the followers of Jesus, I will agree but even then, I hope you know that the Bible predates Jesus Christ and his teaching and even if there was any effort to stop the followers of Jesus from spreading the word by the Romans and they succeeded, it still wouldn't have stop religion but just change some certain aspect we believe in the Bible as true. The so called holy scriptures was once the constitution in the Roman Empire which can be altered by politicians at will (this is a topic for another day)...

Eskis sir,
I insist, not this one.
If you know what religion means to us here, you will agree with me that civilization that will tamper with christianity in Nigeria or Islam in Northern Nigeria has not and can never be conceived.
Let the Americans do their own. Like I said, even if same will happen in Nigeria, 50 years from now is too close.

You can insist whatever you like, it doesn't erode the fact on the issue. About 150 years ago, your ancestors were not Christians or Muslims. Is that the case today? They probably also thought like you that no one could change their religion. About 30 years ago, it was seen as an abomination for a girl to wear short skimpy dress and walk freely in the streets. Infact she will be boed by passers by. Is that the case today? The Bible encourages us to spank a child when he/she goes wrong, but civilisation and the western world thinks otherwise, how is that faring where you are? Are teachers still allowed to flog today? Even though it's not expressly in our laws. If you settle down and look at it, Nigerians are not religious. Not even for one bit. We just serve God because of poverty. Take away poverty and you will see the true Nigerians.

It's not a prophecy, it's where civilisation is taking us to. If you studied Education, Child developmental Psychology, you will understand what I'm trying to say there. Nigeria don't need to pass the law, once it is passed in developed climes, we will just copy it as usual.

It's gradually happening. I told someone something like this last year December. I said the contents of the holy books are not suitable for kids. I said civilisation will soon take us to a stage where kids are not allowed to read the holy books until they attain certain age. Are we not gradually moving towards there now?

This is a very naive mindset. I'm guessing you are not more than 30years of age. It is this type of mindset that made the people of Edo State accepted Lucky Igbinedion as governor in 1999. You can google the effect of his administration. The man turned out to be a thief. He laundered Edo State money through his father's companies and various family businesses. He was even found guilty by a competent court of law and he opted for plea bargain.

That a man is already rich does not guarantee that he will not steal when he gets to power.
