PoliticsRe: Bandits Abduct Students Of Islamiyya School, Katsina In Fresh Attack by GGirll: 11:48am On Dec 20, 2020
humilitypays:
Terrorists in power, having a field day in northern Nigeria.

The sad truth is Britain and France destroyed Nigeria and other African nations by joining tribes with parallel cultures, lifestyle, belief and interest together to form different African nations, out of their devilish interests to have larger size of African nations to milk during the colonial era.


This wicked act of merging too many tribes to form one African country gave rise to tribal competition and agitation in African nations, and of course corruption by people in power trying to favor their tribesmen against other tribes, and this plunged African nations into years and decades of civil wars and later massive corrupt governments in the name of military governments cum corrupt Democratic governments we have today in African nations.



But go to Europe, almost all countries in Europe are made up of people of similar heritage and interest.


Even in the UK made up of - Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Britain don't have same cultural values and that is why they practice the United kingdom kind of government but with each kingdom - Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Britain having their own independent governments and sovereignty, but they lumped different tribes in Nigeria into one big ungovernable country called Nigeria.



Until Nigeria restructures or divides, there is no hope for a better Nigeria no matter who is elected as President of Nigeria undecided


The time for Nigeria to fully implement local Policing has come. Only Northerners can secure their region. Only Northerners understand their terrain and how to secure it against external or internal aggression. Same applies to Southern Nigerians.


The time to restructure is now.


They should use the 6 geopolitical zones as a test template to restructure Nigeria and test the level of success for like 20 years and see.


Let each geopolitical zone become a sovereign region. Nigeria should also be renamed to United Regions of Africa; URA or United Regions of West Africa; URWA or United Regions of Sahara; URS!


Each region must have their own Prime Minister and Regional Police but we will have one United National Guard, that's the military.
Wise man!!!

FamilyRe: 6 Reasons You Should Avoid People Pleasing by GGirll: 1:45pm On Dec 13, 2020
Fuckingmallam45:
Habits you should stop doing immediately

Stop pleasing everyone. Follow your own convictions, NOT what others expect from you.
Stop pampering yourself. Growth is found OUTSIDE your comfort zone.

Stop being distracted. We are the most distracted generation in history. No FOCUS, no results.

Stop relying on others. Your mama won’t save you anymore. NOTHING is free in life. Take accountability for your future.

Stop expecting instant satisfaction. Patience, PERSISTENCE and perspiration are your best friends.

Stop relying on motivation to act. Create the daily HABITS that will lead to achieving your goals.

Stop abusing your body. Eat HEALTHY, and you will look healthy, feel healthy and think healthily. Eat junk and you will feel like junk.

Stop surrounding yourself with negative people. We can’t change people, but we CAN change the people that we surround ourselves with.
Stop resisting change. Staying stuck in the past has PAINFUL consequences.

Stop fearing failure. If you are not failing, you are not trying HARD enough.
Truthfully true. Thanks

NwaAmaikpe:
shocked




The splendour and precision put into this wedding planning reminds me a lot of that of Ehi Ogbebor and Ken Bramor's.

4months and 12 bakers for one wedding cake is attention to the wrong details because those who ate it have already excreted it and forgotten what it tasted like.
But we will NEVER forget the effort put into this wedding if it ever goes South.

Some of us who discreetly got married without cakes and shared plastic hand-fans as souvenirs are still happily married with plenty descendants but I know some who made sure their wedding was BAAD gan and the talk of the town for months who still have no offspring to show for it and those who gifted cars as wedding souvenirs who were lucky to have a child but don't have that marriage anymore.

I also know some who flew to Dubai for their wedding and few years afterwards, their jumpy marriage made the same person almost jump off 3rd Mainland bridge.

We will be here to see how the show of vanity turns out because Ndigbo have a famous saying that says, "A gbacha oso, a guo mile".

Jeromejnr:
Nigerians are you not tired?

Actually the truth is most dont care because as far as they are concerned it doesn't hit "close to home".

One person is murdered in U.S and almost the whole country shuts down such that the governors and mayors had to take proactive steps.

Here the reason why police or soldiers harass protesters is because its only about 50 to hundred people who go out. The rest are at home watching TV and checking their status.

If hundreds of thousands of people can unite in masses won't this cause a change? But it can't happen na because of divisions here and there.

I saw this silly attitude with Surulere residents during the time trucks blocked the road and how they were suffering. But they could have longed resolved it if all of them came out to block those roads and cause no movement.

But when I didnt see it, I gave up on many things in this country.
Let the Yoruba youths that wore red t.shirts and face caps and blocked 3rd mainland bridge matching and chanting Sao baba go out the same way in their thousands and match against the gov't they so much loved. Let the youths that trekked to Abuja to welcome him to Aso rock also do the same as they did in 2015 ...Let all educated n none educated southerners that voted him in do same again cos we igbos never did n won't allow our youths to be wasted for this country that never love us....we are d 5% ters and we are proud to be.

Omoyele didn't force any government on the people. The people made their own choice. I don't know when it has become a crime to be vocal again a government that is not living up to its expectations.

His media opened the can of worms that sat in Aso and he isn't sorry for it as the millions of voters who booted the ineffectual buffoon out of office.

This is another irresponsible government and Omoyele, as he's known to be, has since stood his ground against it. Then, what exactly is his sin? That he didn't pamper a cash cow to a select few back to office?

The government today would go as well and another would come. Woe betide whoever runs around supporting political onslaught on the people in the name of supporting a party or tribe because, at the end, history would remember those who stood against evil in whatever form it came for good.
Everyone of you that voted in this calamity twice is guilty of the bloodnofbthe innocent citizens that pollutes this land on a daily basis.....is not just about sininning and getting forgiveness....it's also about enjoying the consequences of your sins n actions.

In continuation : so I thought we were to discuss another important business deal cos d first one we did went well.... since I was d one that wrote d proposal n it we won d contract. Instead the guy I gave my number started asking me which tribe I came from, how I wrote d proposals so easily n how I told him that we will get it n we did that there's something about me that interest him n his colleagues n that they want to know me better apart from business angle. I angered their questions n even told them that God told me about d winning of d contract n that if they can repent truly that they can hear God as He is very close to d righteous. Then he told his friend to do d need ful n d guy knelt down n proposed to me in my shock cameras where flying n people gathered n were clapping n all, I was in shock or awe right there I closed my eyes n ask God should i take this ring or not....n I heard Him clearly take it as I have revealed him to you in time past....so I took d ring from a mn I don't know his surname,background,genotype n blood group, I only knew he was Igbo n in that dramatic moment....he hugged me n thanked me n then told me he would be leaving for d airport as he was traveling out on a business trip n will be back in 3 days n that he will come n see me but that he will keep in touch from there. His friend took me back to school n I came back n wept asking God if I hadn't made a mistake n he should tell me what next.
I am As n a scientist n I imagined how foolish I was to accept a ring without vital infos when he came back I asked him to see me to d hospital for a comprehensive medical check up n he did n left again for another trip. We did HIV,HPV,blood group n genotype,rhesus factor test,hepatitis A,B,C tests n urinalysis test n all came out negative n he is AA. so I asked God for more signs n he asked me to ask him his birth day n ATM PIN NUMBER, I told God I will sound like a gold digger but He Saud ask him n you will be shocked since you need more clarification,so I did n he told me n behold to my shock we were born in d same month n we have d same ATM PIN digit with a difference in d last digit. Fast forward we went to see our parents made our intentions known n we were both accepted by both families. We fixed our wedding dates n went through it n Today we are married n expectant.

COPIED.

I posted this to let you know that spiritual husbands,soul tie covenants n evil strong men n women exist likewise witches n wizards. To the OP this is a true life story from MFM CHURCH the lady is a fire brand and has been helping most ladies using her life experiences n story.
I will strongly advise you do away with all sins n pray with all seriousness n with Faith coupled with fasting if you really want to be free....you must not continue contacting or receiving calls from your ex n truly rededicate your life to JESUS CHRIST CAUSE ONLY HIM CAN SAVE YOU.
There are many more stories from many sisters whom God had delivered n set free.....don't fear but believe you must be set free n pay d prize with prayer n fasting n complete holiness.
God bless you.
Christianity EtcRe: Could It Be Spirit Husband Or My Ex After My Life? by GGirll: 9:08am On Jun 10, 2020
Let me tell a true life story. I was born and brought up in a Christian home n a very disciplined parents. While growing up I loved the things of God n was preaching and doing morning cry with my dad at age 6. Fast forward, before I knew it after my waec I fell into sin n from there I started declining spiritually but still GOD was with me. I met a guy fell in love n we started a relationship that lasted for 13 years n after all I found out he was married n planned to divorce his wife cos me even though he hid it from me cos his family were not in d same state he was working where we met. But before I found out,we had done everything n we promised each other never to leave. When I then confronted him he begged n apologized n all but I was adamant n ended d relationship for good but that was after going to MFM for deliverance n I told d minister everything n d whole truth. He told me never to pick d guys calls or call him back or reply him or ever see him again in fact he said I should break my SIM card but I couldn't because of important contacts. Fast forward to 2013 i watched a Yoruba movie titled sonto alapata n I learnt how a man can jazz a lady through her phone number n so I remembered d pastors instruction in 2011 to destroy my SIM card so I summoned courage n cut it in pieces with a scissors. After then I vowed never to ever make a mistake again n rededicated myself to Jesus Christ n I meant it. I stopped wearing trousers,earrings,weavon n all make ups. I went fully into d ministry n I took my salvation this time very very serious. I pray at 12midnight from 2011 till date n I did a lot of prayers n fastings to be totally free from any bondage due to my dreams of snakes like pythons,water dreams,forest dreams,desert dream n lions coming to eat me n will always pray or escape of kill them both pythons n lions. I even dreamt of my ex throwing darts on me n all. My dream were always mysterious but very clear n I will go for deliverance n prayed Hard n avoided all sins,dumped all my friends but guys n ladies that could influence me negatively. I left Facebook,wassap,tweeter n all internet to really focus on my self,studies n spiritual life. While doing all these I preached n evangelized I did my baptism n converted a lot souls in my school,class n hostels. Peoples started calling me mum G.O n I became strong in d Lord. Before then....My academic life was great as I'm always d best in class n over all but when I dated that guy I did poorly no matter how much I studied but when people dub me they get A but me I will be getting like C or E. But after I left him n prayed n rededicated myself I became the best gain with a CGPA of 4.61 then I knew God has restored me back. I found out also that during that time d type of men that comes for my hand in marriage were not my type n I was instructed to start praying against evil soul tie n so I took it serious n prayed against it,strongman n evil covenants to be broken. Finally I had 5 proposals that ended suddenly without any proof but I knew its cos of my covenant with d evil ex..in 2018 I prayed earnestly with a very broken heart n asked God to take my life or show me why I'm in this situation or is it that He GOD cannot answer prayers again cos I was mocked by my supervisor who did all he could to make me sleep with him n I refused n he told me I will never graduate n all but I told him I rather die than sleep with a married man. So after I prayed n cried blood out demanding God to act since a Muslim man my supervisor has insulted me a daughter of Zion. I went into trance like I sleptboff n I saw myself on my reading table in school n on my wedding finger was a black ring big n bold I asked myself how I wore this dirty ring n who put it on my finger,then I quickly removed d ring n threw it behind me n faced my table to read n lo I saw a diamond ring chained with a wrist watch also diamond n I quickly wore them n immediately I woke up from d trance or sleep. I knelt down n thanked God for my deliverance n for d revelation. From that dayvi started dreaming about different guys proposing to me in my dream but I was spiritually apart not to accept any one. For 4 months I dreamt about a guy I used to know but not close too coming to my room in school n visiting me. When I prayed n asked God who he is he told me that is my son I'm giving you out of my mercy because you are not supposed to marry in life but you had found mercy in my sight n because you had been faithful n I have chosen you to do exploit in this end time n because you had been ridiculed n mocked I have given you my son to remove your reproach as I promised in psalm 102 vs 13. I demanded for more signs from God to be sure he kept revealing this guy d more. By d Grace of God I had d gift of prophesy so I was placed in d prophetic group by my pastors who worked with me from d onset till now,monitoring my dream life n giving me details of my dreams. One day in one of our vigils in church a hi if 18yrs old prophesied n asked all UN married ministers to come out n collect their wedding gown that bit is there waiting for us n so without shame I came out n by Faith collected my wedding gown n few months later, I was in a place for a business deal n I happen to deal with friends of d guy I had been seeing I my dre but don't know how to meet him in life. After d business was sealed they asked for my number I gave them n left. One-day one of them called me n demanded to see me , I told him to come to my school but I later decided to meet him in a public place that is in siverbird galleria n when I finally showed up he was with this guy I knew in my dream but I didn't mind.

HealthRe: Doctor Ikenna Ihim's Work Published By Bio Medical Central by GGirll: 4:12pm On Jun 07, 2020
2fine2fast:
Congratulations Dr Ihim.

However, Nairaland is supposed to be an educative platform like the likes of Reddit, Quora, etc. And I will continue to view it as such.
Thus, permit me to educate interested fellows and upcoming scientist in my own little way.
1. A search of the article on "google scholar", a search engine dedicated for academic publications showed that
the study was done in 2015. So can someone kindly tell me the media hype surrounding the publication 5 years
after?
2. The principal investigator of the research was Murad Bani Hani, being listed as the first author. Our compatriot is
the second author. In scientific research, and i would like to believe in all other types of researches, the main credit of
the work is given to the first author who most atimes carried out the main part of the study.
3. Furthermore, the journal in which the study was published " BMC Nursing" is a low-tier journal in the circle of serious
scientific publications. It has no real "Impact Factor" which is usually the Clarivate Analytics ranking of the impact of
journals. I for once would not consider publishing my work in such journals. In addition BMC journals are not well-indexed,
researches are considered to be valuable when they are placed in top-indexed, peer-reviewed journals published by Nature,
Elsevier, Springer, ACS , RSC, sometimes MDPI, and a few others I cannot recollect now.
4. In addition, the journal attracts a publication fee. This is a well-known trait of predatory journals which is considered an
ethical issue in academics. Why would i carry out a cutting edge research and still pay money to inform the scientific community
about it. Here in my faculty, all research published in paid journals raise concerns as it is believed they did not undergo rigorous
peer review which is the hallmark of scientific communication.

Like i said earlier, this post is only meant to educate and not to vilify. It is also meant for the perusal of upcoming scientist in Nigeria.
All through my study in NG, we never had this basic orientation. We came to better environment and realised that we knew close to
nothing of the real scientific world and had to handle around for a while before we got our footings. An article like this making the headline
and being celebrated on an important platform such as this underscores our knowledge as a country, which is a source of concern for
serious Nigerian researchers scattered around the world. Sometimes ago, it was some people celebrating the sequencing of the COVID-19
genome, by Ghana and Nigeria respectively, these are not scientific feats, they are mere routine laboratory tasks.

In all, lets top celebrating mediocrity as a people as it undermine the respect other nationals have for us. I use this opportunity to pay my respect
to indefatigable Nigerian Researchers doing their nation proud in various laboratories and research institutions scattered all over the world.
Thanks.
You just said the truth here as a researcher you don't pay for a good research worthy of analytical thinking n all and d first author that is d corresponding author as d person that did most of the research work than others.....but all d same congratulations to Dr. Ihim et al...
