93RD:
It's not the failure of the parties, it's the failure of individuals. The earlier everyone starts pointing at the bad eggs regardless of party affiliation, the better for the country.

Parties can never lead, individuals do hence the need to have the right people at the helm of affairs in every level of governance, and not just vote party. When it goes wrong criticise, investigate and kick that individual out collectively if need be and stop the blind followership. This attitude of "everybody is a saint as long as they are in my party" need to stop.

Speculation is part of forex or any business in the world

Was there not speculators under PDP?
Was there not speculators when naira was stable?

The issue is not speculators the issue is this

Because of the rush to say we floated the naira.. Tinubu floated and unstable currency causing panic, people like me who don't need dollars in the near futures started demanding for dollars, which caused more instability

You guys don't even know the cause of the problem... There is no faith on the naira that's the fundamental issue

Tinubu government doesn't inspire faith at all

Minsk24:
A parliamentary system without direct election of the prime Minister is not good...
A parliamentary system that will need parties and coalition to form government will pave way for instability, we cannot afford to continue running elections due to cost...
We tweak the parliamentary system to enable the prime Minister to be voted directly by the masses and would not need party or coalition to form government...he would just select ministers and focus on governance..
Parliamentary system biggest advantage is that u can not have a dullard as prime Minister...unlike the presidential system where the president can easily hide

Parliamentary System

Pros:
1.Unity and Consensus: In a parliamentary system, the executive (the Prime Minister) is usually a member of the majority party in the parliament. This means that the government's agenda is more likely to align with the views of the majority of lawmakers, leading to smoother decision-making and greater unity.
2.Flexibility: If the Prime Minister loses the support of the parliament, they can be removed through a vote of no confidence, leading to a new government without the need for a full election. This allows for quicker responses to changing circumstances or public sentiment.
3.Accountability: The Prime Minister and cabinet ministers are directly accountable to the parliament, which means they must regularly answer questions and defend their actions. This helps ensure that government officials are held accountable for their decisions and actions.

Cons:
1.Instability:Since the government's survival depends on maintaining the support of the parliament, frequent changes in government can occur if there is political instability or shifting alliances among political parties. This can lead to uncertainty and inconsistency in governance.
2. Dominance of Political Parties: In a parliamentary system, political parties have a lot of power, and smaller parties may struggle to have their voices heard. This could potentially lead to the interests of minority groups being overlooked.
3. Less Direct Representation:In some parliamentary systems, voters do not directly elect the Prime Minister, but rather vote for a political party. This means that the leader of the country may not necessarily reflect the preferences of all voters.

Presidential System

Pros:
1.Stability: The president serves a fixed term and cannot be easily removed from office outside of impeachment proceedings, providing more stability and continuity in leadership.
2.Direct Representation:In a presidential system, voters directly elect the president, which means that the leader of the country is directly accountable to the people.
3.Separation of Powers:The presidential system typically separates the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government, which can help prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful.

Cons:
1. Gridlock:In a presidential system, if the president's party does not have a majority in the legislature, it can lead to gridlock and difficulty passing legislation, as the president and the legislature may have conflicting priorities.
2. Less Flexibility: Unlike in a parliamentary system, where the government can be easily replaced, removing a president from office outside of scheduled elections can be a lengthy and complex process, which may make it harder to address urgent issues.
3.Less Accountability:Since the president is not directly accountable to the legislature, there may be fewer mechanisms in place to hold them accountable for their actions, potentially leading to abuses of power.[/b]

I have an excellent suggestion to solve these cons on Parliamentary.

Simple we can elect our president by majority votes and then allow the president act as the symbol of the unity of the country.

I still strongly believe a modified Parliamentary systems is best for us where the president is rotated by the constitution and the president have power over service chiefs and external security but the PM control economy and internal security.

seborrhic:
If the subsidy had been removed and the Naira was defended,things wouldn't have been this horrible.
Tinubu is empty.
He is a sawdust filled brain man with nothing to offer because you can't give what you don't have.
Any monkey can remove subsidy and devalue the Naira.
It's what you do before,during and after, knowing the ripple effect of those policies that should distinguish you from the monkey.
Tinubu has not proved he has a brain better than that of an ordinary monkey,if at all he has anything in it.

"Poverty striken Countries"...you may be right to an extent, but the french who ripped those African colonies of all their resources has been chased out. I believe if they have the interest of the masses at heart, they'll go places. Niger has Uranium, and I believe you know the importance of this rare element in nuclear power generation and other radioactive purposes. Gabon, Niger, Mali, Upper Volta are off the wings of their colonial masters, Ivory coast, Algeria and Senegalese need to take a bold step

Am lending my voice to this thread
https://www.nairaland.com/7922406/wife-why-life-women-complicated#127165126

A couple of days back, my wife put to bed using CS. Initially we had a baby before, I a know how complicated and painful the pregnancy and childbirth was.

Now I was in the theatre during the CS and I saw first hand how someone's abdomen was sliced open and the baby pulled out. I also saw how doctors were putting their hands into someone's abdomen and how they finally stitched her up. It wasn't an easy sight to behold. Right now, she's recovering, but the pain she's passing through is much.

To me, this is the highest form of sacrifice that someone can give for the family.

So to the men and husband out there..... before you ask your wife to be "what she is bringing to table", kindly think about the sacrifice they make in bringing your children to the world.

Sad as it may be, the 1st paragraph is what should be acted upon.
How can you expect judges to learn on the job!
The fact remains that the recruitment process of Judge s into the appeal court and Supreme Court should be without the interference of the Executive Arm of Government.

I think it's high time the Office of the Attorney General and The Minister of Justice should be separated, while the former should be entirely left to the National Judicial Council, the latter should be left to the crooked Politician with recommendation from the National Judicial Council whose membership should be by election from the National Bar Association.

ojesymsym:
Someone suggested that a mischief maker deliberately inserted that part of the judgement into the written document and I am inclined to believe it. This is not like writing 'he' instead of 'she' or a simple grammatical error.
The part of the judgement was written out in favor of the other individual. It is too big a mistake to be called an error in an official document from the courts.
Beyond politics that error or insertion should be investigated and the culprit brought to book.
Civil servants getaway with too many things, if it was the private sector, a query, demotion or outright sack would be the fate of such an individual.

The Certified True Copy (which happened to be the supposed wrong copy) first existed before the corrected version came into existence.


It seems like all the wrong Copy-and-Pasting happened on the Page-67..

They perfectly did Copy-and-Paste in all the other pages and removed all the original texts,
But they forgot to take a careful final look on that page-67..
..

A lot of things are really happening.

I have often wondered the correct thing to do as regards this issue.

Ordinarily I was brought up in a home where my mother made it compulsory for us to brush before eating in the morning and of course before going to bed.

Going forwards during my undergraduate days, I was again indoctrinated with the idea that brushing after breakfast keeps one mouth cleaner and free from debris throughout the day.

Recently, my girlfriend sees this as a dirty behaviour and has frowned at it severally. Please whats the way forward on this issue?

Kindly help

This is what morality means to you?


Are there anything on your list here that a husband can show to his wife too, or it is forbidden for men to express these qualities as you've described with their wives?

Should a husband not be peaceful? Should he not be understanding? Should he not show support for his wife and deal with her with great understanding? I you think these things are okay for men to imbibe, why are you calling it submission for women?

This is stupid. It's your Personal decision to end your life how and when you decide to too (if all thoughts goes as planned)
Everyone has been at an edge of contemplating sucide at one point in life.

As an adult, she must have thought it wise not to consult her own family about her decision.

She has made the best decision for her anyway. The best decision of not considering her kids welfare after she's gone. What a coward

Namaster:


Shut up!

It's the height of negligence. You are operating on a human being, not a china phone. It makes ZERO sense to forget things INSIDE a person.

The OP is merely calling for PUNISHMENT that's equal to the crime.

If a Doctor leaves something inside a patient, his/her license should be retracted. Hospital should be penalised and the Doctor should be sued and convicted for the heinous crime.

They should NEVER be allowed to touch a scalpel ever again.

Go to a hospital and see how nonchalant the doctors and nurses are. It's SUPER disgusting.

The only sensible people in a Nigerian hospital are the laboratory workers. The rest are mad. ALL of them.

Those who Japa dare NOT misbehave when they do so. Else, jail time.

Rubbish. The president doesn't 'appoint' the Chief Justice, but he controls him. The president doesn't 'appoint' the Senate President, but he controls him.

All these muke muke suggestions indicate either stupidity or mischief. None of these things would ever work.

We need to DISMANTLE the fucking constitution and start from the scratch. Either disintegrate the fucking country or at the very least, restructure it into a confederal/regional arrangement where the heads of each region are stronger than the so-called president. Let every region have their own INEC, their own CBN, their own police, their own EFCC, and so forth. That way, ojoro cancel. Enough of tribalistic Presidents making their ethnic group feel special.

HanisahZuwy:
I don't know if I'll ever get a man to marry me. I look so older than my age. I'm in my twenties, but I look like a 53 years old woman. Even men
and women old enough to be my father and mother will be referring to me as ma. Some of them are even people who are older than me with 30-35 years. Most people doubt me when they ask for my age and I tell them. They feel I'm lying about my age. I feel I'm more than the age I tell them. I know some people look older than their age, but I don't think any could be worse than mine. Mine is that bad!


I don't know why this is so. I don't know why I look so older than my age.Why is it like that? Is there any one here in this kind of situation? How does that make you feel? Please, what can I do to remedy this? Is there anyone here like that? Or am I alone? What do you normally do to help yourself in this situation? I would like to hear from you if you're in this.

flokii:
The colonialists dealt a big blow on the psyche of Black Africans in a way that can't be explained.. forget the cosmetic independence we're celebrating in Africa, the Europeans are still very much in control of our resources and leaders.

Look at Nigeria for example.. whosoever wants to contest for President will go to Chattam house to give speech for the slavemasters to vet and scrutinize.. how do you expect Nigeria to progress under such arrangement?

The younger generations that should be thinking of how to take back and rescue Africa are busy thinking of 'JAPA'.. when they eventually Japa, they'll end up with boredom, loneliness and depression in the foreign lands when it dawns on them they aren't valued or needed there.

The people are happy but some useless and unfortunate leaders of regional blocks like ECOWAS and AU will kick against this coup.

The people of the black race have awoken, just like the Arab Spring of almost a decade ago. More military takeover is expected... The last ignoble, infamous election in Nigeria 🇳🇬 that witnessed a 'coup de democracy' gave the impetus and rise for all these military takeover.


Many other countries and even Nigerians are watching the Tribunal, and the verdict could finally nail the coffin ⚰ of democracy in Africa.
