Is Aisha's first issue 32 years old? Like oga like boi boi... Olodo

If he must know, Aisha was born in 1971, and she got married in 1989 at the age of 18.

The same age KANU Nawnkwo's wife was when she got married tongue

Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aisha_Buhari

They should please come up with another attack. This one no follow.


You compared Aisha age at marriage with KANU Nwonkwo's wife at marriage. Why did you not also compare KANU Nwankwo age at marriage to that of Buhari's age at marriage to Aisha? Zombie

Religion / Re: If A Man Has Multiple Wives And Becomes A Christian, What Is He Supposed To Do? by greatjoey: 8:02am On Jun 22, 2016
ettaetta:
I know Modern day christianity condems polygamy and the bible condems divorce, so my quetion now is? If a man has multiple wives and becomes a Christian, what is he supposed to do?

Most times, the modern day Christians interprete the holy bible as it suites their established doctrine without recourse to the foundation and beginning of time. Monogamy and polygamy are issues of ability and choice and not divinity. From the beginning, God has selected great men as his friends and faithful servants both from polygamous homes and monogamous homes too. God is not mindful of your marital status but your personal relationship with him. He referred to David as a man after his heart. He was with Solomon and blessed him most abundantly. These were men with many wives. Remember, God said, I am thy God, I change not. His words are his bonds. Remember the woman Jesus met at the well. He told her: Where is thou husband? She replied and said, I have no husband and Jesus said, :thou has said well because thou has had four husbands, and the one thou liveth with now is not thou husband BECAUSE HE DID NOT MARRY THOU'. Here, Jesus did not say, she has had four adulterous husbands. The four were legitimate husband but the fifth wasn't because he did not marry her. This means that, if the fifth had married her, he would be seen as her fifth legitimate husband too. There is no part of Bible where God condemns polygamy or disapprove of it. Monogamy does not have its root from the bible but from Roman catholic in particular and the white culture whose over bearing impact shapes our christian lives and doctrine. God does not operate in a murky way. His commandments are explicit. Outrightly, he said, ' I hate divorce:'. He said thou shall not kill, thou shall not bear false witness, thou shall not commit adultery etc. These are things he abhors and he made them known outrightly. Remeber, soloman was a product of a polygamous home. He was a child mothered by the wife whom king David killed the husband and took for wife. Remember also that, when God sent a prophet to David against his deed, David repented but God did not ask him to divorse the woman. She remained David's wife and mothered Solomon. If God disapproves of polygamy, there was nothing stopping him from declaring it. He is not an author of confusion. He was God yesterday, he is God today, he remains God forever. Remember, he warns against adding and subtracting from his words in Revelation. He is infinite. Thank you.

Benue being known as a state in the north is basically political. We have nothing in common with those goro chewing Abokis that reason from their anus. No place for grazing reserve in Benue. culturally, our relationship is like north pole to south pole. Social, we are incompatible. Religiously, we are almost completely Christians (99.5%) what more.

People like you should cease talking if you don't know what to say. Muhammed ali converted to Islam two days after he shocked the world by wresting the title from Sonny Liston in February 1964 at age 22. His career nosedived in early 40 when he was diagnosed of Parkinsons disease. What has his religion got to do with this? You wouldn't say a word when they wanted him to go to Vietnam for a war he knew nothing about and kill Vietnamese which he rejected which made them strip him is championship title and banned for 4 years ALL IN HIS PRIME.

What religion did this to him?


Mike Jackson converted round 08/09. Was that his prime period?

Mike Tyson converted while serving jail time and he joined few other men George Forman, Muhammed Ali and three others as the only men in boxing history to that point to have regained a heavyweight championship after having lost it.

Don't spew your nonsense here


Mohammed Ali converted into Islam two days after he shocked the world while a Christian, and what happened to him 18 years later? Michael Jackson converted to Islam around 08 and 09 like you said. What happened to him few years later? Mike Tyson also converted to Islam while in prison. What happened to his career afterward? Irling Bradshaw converted to Islam after his 3rd championship. What happened to his career and life 18 months later?
One thing is associated with Muslims all over the world. 'Aggression'. You just expressed it. Is it a coincidence? My observation though.

There is one thing that is common amongst Christians that later converted to Islam having succeeded in their careers as Christians. Michael Jackson, Mike Tyson, Mohammed Ali, Bradshaw Irling, Ahmad Deedat come
to mind. Could it be a coincidence? My thought.

Exactly what we were complaining about earlier.

Between Christianity and Islam,I actually don't know which is worse. I am a Christian,and I know the bible teaches us not to lie.

But these Christian Elders,are not only lying openly,but are going against the Doctrine of the Bible by bearing false witness.



How did you Elders know he wants to use the back door to Islamize this Country?where in the bible does it even say some Christians are Elders?

You guys trying to give Buhari a bad name by all means.

Jokers.

Stop claiming a religion you don't know anything about just to drive home a myopic point. You claimed there is nothing like elder in the Bible and you claimed to be a Christian. You don't have any knowledge of the Bible. Why must Sharia be promoted in a secular state like Nigeria? What happens to our constitution and it's roles? An innocent woman was beheaded for an allege blasphemy in Kano two days ago. Is it constitutional? Beheading for blasphemy is Sharia and Islamic. Call a spade a spade.

xender:
there is sense in this.

It's the height of senselessness in display. Since Muslim right group is not an academic institution, it must not dab into issue as crucial as this. From experience, it is believed and known that corruption is more prevalent in swapping of scores in post JAMB than in JAMB itself. Prospective students are being swindled of their money by the schools glaringly. It is also a duplication of exercise since JAMB was solely established for this purpose and it is backed by law. The only point made by this useless religious body here is the idea of too early schedule of JAMB exam at 0630hr. This needs to stop forthwith.

Why are they doing this? Is it by force to be a Muslim? They are forcing Christians to become Muslims meanwhile Christians can't force Muslims oo...

You cannot compare light and darkness. islam is like an evil cult. Muslim's forcefully convert non Muslims, and hold the Muslims bound in the name of apostasy. In a complete Islamic state, converting from Islam to another religion attracts death penalty as a converter is said to have committed apostasy. Islqm is evil in all definition.

That Means He should be 12 in 1986. So he wrote WAEC AT 12 Isn't it? He must be a genius right?

Visit NASS website and see for yourself. Since when do they write WAEC in Primary School?

Let them look for something else to pin on him because, this is possible. A lot of Nigerians who couldn't make their WAEC at first sitting go back to resit in other secondary school years later. That he presented a WASC result of 1986 does not mean that he graduated from secondary school in 1986. His first year of graduation might be different. People wanna nail him because of his unalloyed support for Saraki. Free him jawe

See How My Sister Was Bartered By Her Husband


A man did this to his wife all because she disallowed him to have intercourse with her. I don't usually post on nairaland but I enjoy reading the contents of nairaland forum, and that is why I felt it is the right place to bring this.

The husband went a bit far though. But your sister ain't any free of the blame. How would you refuse your husband sex except in some exceptional cases. Sex means so much to a man when he needs it I am sure, this did not happen at the first denial. It must have been recurrent. Address the issue from the root by advising your sister to make herself available to her husband when he knocks.

What are you saying? I've always subscribed the night plan with the same line on that same tariff with the promo too and it has always gone well.

Ok. I understand you better. On my part, I encountered a similar thing with AIRTEL and that was the explain. However, you may migrate to a different plan and check it out.
Phones / Re: The Untrustworthiness Of MTN - The New Data Plans by greatjoey: 7:24am On May 17, 2016
Dygeasy:
I subscribed to the new MTN Data plan of 2,000 naira for 3.5gig yesterday. I'm on the Bettertalk plan which gives me triple of every recharge so I got 4,000 naira bonus upon recharge.

I did the subscription while still having the bonus intact. Now according to a Customer Care representative when I enquired sometime ago, I was told that if you subscribe to any data plan on Bettertalk, before your data starts getting deducted they would start deducting from the bonus airtime for any internet-related activity. That is however true from my previous data subscription with MTN when I used to do the 4.5 gig for 2,500 Naira.

For the past 20 hours I have made calls and used the Internet all of which were charged from my 4,000 nara bonus airtime.

Late into the evening, I checked my data balance and I had my full 3.5gig intact and I saw another 700mb for night plan. I disregarded that as system error and went about my own normal business.

I used the Internet for a while and about three hours later, I wanted to see if they had started deducting from my data and Lo! I saw I had 615mb left.

I didn't download. In fact I made sure I didn't download because I wanted to ensure I used a substantial amount of the airtime to make calls.

How on earth did I spend 2.9 gig in three hours?

I called Customer Care and they were quoting some nonsensical thousands of kilobytes that I used.

My phone is telling me otherwise. No matter the difference in the data usage calculations, it shouldn't be that much. Screenshot attached.

This is a huge inconvenience from MTN. 2,000 Naira might be meagre but this is unacceptable.

This is not my first time of subscribing on this phone for different data plans. Why is this different? I am not going to accept this.

CC: Lalasticlala

Dominique

Nobody is ubiquitous in knowledge. The advertisement did not help issues as it left some sensitive information murky. In data subscription, if you are on better talk and you are given some bonuses after recharge, you don't use the same amount recharged for data subscription. This is because, the amount has lost its face value by virtue of the bonuses received, in this regard, after hundred percent of 2000. What you need do, for you to enjoy the data you must migrate from better talk before the next recharge. In this way, your data shall be fully utilised. You don't eat your cake and have it. Thank you.

Whenever I read a post like this, one thing comes to mind. Without prejudice to Muslim's, why are posts that are Islamic related shielded from from public domain, discuss, and contribution unlike Christianity related post? Is it that there is something to hide? Is it that they don't want other knowledgeable people to unearth the many ills and ungodly practice of Islam?

According to the petroleum minister for state, he said they have tried to give the marketers priority to access forex from the CBN, but the marketers were selling it through the parallel markets. According to him, to them selling their dollars in the parallel market makes more sense than having to import petroleum products. That is why they stopped giving them such privilege. On the later part of your summation, you're entitled to your own opinion.
Thanks for the explanation if only the excuse of the minister on its own wasn't a fallacy. However, I still wanna opine that, with close monitor of the handling of the fix, that can be averted since the FG has powers and privileges at her disposal. This is better enhanced instead of pushing the brunt to the citizenry. My brother, things are already difficult and need no further hardship which will be the attendant effects of the increment.

The little explanation for that is simple. Previously, they were giving the marketers FX through CBN at the official rate of N197. But now they have asked the marketers to source for their own forex at the rate of N285 according to the Minister of state for Petroleum Resources yesterday on Channels TV. The PPPRA used the unofficial rate in the calculation.

But what should stop them from giving marker fix through the cbn? It is all fraudulent. APC is simply a scam.
