The biggest givers in the world are still the advanced developed countries. From US, to EU Countries, Japan, Australia etc. Whenever there is a natural disaster, they are the ones that still send relief.


And they still they allow millions of people from poor countries to migrate to their place for improved living.

It is individuals who make up the developed countries? Isn't it? What you can't apply to individuals who make up those countries why applying it to the generality of those nations? Have you seen anyone on the Forbes list of the weathiest who said he became so because he was just giving? Thus definitely, no countries are wealthy countries because they are giving.

It is a working system built on justice and good management first, that make those countries being able to have excess and then share with others. Many countries are great today and they are not really into humanitarian stuffs.

They are not wealthy countries because they are sending relief materials to those hit by disaster. I believe in giving but it doesn't substitute for good management of resources and great leadership.

slowpoke and semi-illiterate, the US president and or any educated or intelligent man in the world addresses anyone 18 and above as a Sir or Mister, it is not reserved for president, it is courtsey common to all

He should go and use the 'sir' to collect money in CBN. 'Sir' is definitely strange to him and his president, that's why he is making an achievement out of it. When did common courtesy become a trophy?

As.much as I have subscribed to message on giving for a very long time, I have got to know that giving is not really the main and foremost of principle.
Possibly because we in this part of the world has put too much emphasis on giving, and making it so makes it questionable.

Those who gave in the Bible did beyond giving. Same Bible says that it is even possible to give without love according to 1Cor. 13.
I think we begin to go in excess thinking that the more we give, the richer we become... Look at us, the topmost richest in the world didn't get that rich by just giving. Most time when giving is preached, it is so that we can become rich?! It is questionable. Many have done that for year with no matching results and are frustrated.

In Nigeria we don't need more of messages of giving, but messages of tolerance, love, justice, and of equity. This far has the messages of giving and more giving brought us...where greed, acquisitions of the materials, eye-service and self-centeredness seem to be at the front seat.


A person who subscribes to justice and fairness is more recognised before God than another who is emptying his pocket for church but is intolerant of his brethren, neighbours or fellow humans.

There should be a detour.

“I am not letting my husband go; even when he is angry, I would beg him”




When you see a pretty woman who is not arrogant, respects her husband and her marriage you have to stand up to give her a salute



You, ma'am have earned my respect

My own respect too follows suit. Not everyone can utter that. That's a submissive spirit of an humble woman.

Those are touching words.
Wisdom not common in this generation.
While she not willing to let the husband go shouldn't result to the husband being a beast in the relationship, it suffices to say that it takes 2 to tango. Working marriage works by the two adults involved.

A wise woman uses her own hand to build her home. And yeah in the presence of an understanding husband too.

This is one of the best threads I will always cherish on Nairaland.

SuperS1Panther:
The Senate being led by Saraki and his gang is the worst in the history of Nigeria. It is the most clannish, self serving, arrogant, egoistic and unfortunately most incompetent Senate we ever had.

They turned the Senate to House of Summons. Thank God they have not even summoned God Almighty to appear before them.

The useless Senate has kidnapped our budget since November 2017 and yet they are taking 13.5m per month minus allowances.


After ridiculing themselves with the issue of Custom General's uniform, they failed to get Sagay summoned and now the IGP.

Our Senate of Suspension should learn to carry themselves with more dignity, sense of responsibility and patriotism to the nation.

Just wait and watch how Senate will try to amend the Police Act again, in their usual predictable manner.

The truth is bold that all parties are in gross public misbehaviour.

The Senate is criminal. The judiciary is ineffective The police, representing the uniformed institution is lawless. The executive is incompetent. And this only in Nigeria.
The IGP claiming to be performing his duties to the best of his ability, I guess his refusal to relocate to Benue was part of the duty too.

None, I mean none of them is well.
This is Nigeria.

Wrongest move ever. You don’t need it. You need investments. Do
You know the cost of maintenance and parking at the airport monthly? Ask Daniel
Omokachi. This boy is too forward and over competitive. That’s not good all the same. It’s a no for me.

That maintenance/parking cost is not for the fainthearted. It is not about buying a jet.
Bill Gates among the richest said the biggest thing he ever wasted money on was on buying a private aircraft. He has the money, but a private jet is never an asset in the long run.
Except it is actually a joke that he bought one though.

I wonder what Tinubu a progressive minded man found in Buhari( a regressive minded man)
When we will have a politician that will put Nigeria first in all dealings
Nigeria youth needs to wake up, all this old men will die and leave us, we just need a generation that didn't witness the Civil war to be at the helm of affairs.All this current politicians are creating division between us

Tinubu is not without his own agenda too. He once said that if he had the opportunity to become the president, he would embrace it with opened hands. Him supporting Buhari who seems to have an edge to be presented for presidential seat today by the party is most likely to pave way for his own ambition in the due time.
Nobody hardly supports a course that doesn't have one way or the other to reward him in the aftermath. Not even Nigerian politicians.

damosky12:
Its sad that politics has served as a medium for people to vent their personal vendettas .

What has pastor Osinbajo done wrong? Has he gone wrong by taking part in politics?

Why the blackmails all because he is a pastor? Must he publicly announce and feign his pains on the sad events that have plagued the country.

Haba! Guys, let's try and blend emotions with reason. We have no clear proof that Osinbajo is apathetic on these issues. Its not until he comes on air to shed tears.


Let's stop the blackmail and slander on the gentle pastor, please.

Let's not discourage Presidential aspirants who are Christians.

It is not a matter of discouraging Christians from joining politics or wanting to become President or VP, one thing that's glaring about VP stance as far as everyone can see is that him being VP or not hardly has any influence whatsover. He has so much blended and gets comfortable like a typical Nigerian politician that you would wonder if with his background as a 'Pastor', a Christian leader, he couldn't actually make a difference.

All lives are precious, either atheists, Muslims or Christians; if Nigeria President is a Christian and the VP is a Muslim, and Muslims are being treated somehow, do you think that Muslim VP wouldn't be called out by the Muslim community? So him being called out is not a kind of stigmatization. The question is, Is Buhari handling the unfortunate killings well? The answer is glaring. So if Buhari is cold about that, must Osibanjo too behave as if everything is alright because his boss' body language assumes so?

It is not just about killing alone, what Osibanjo has demonstrated is that regardless of your faith or religion in Nigeria, when you join politics/party, you can hardly stand out. Loyalty to party and your personal interest is above anything else. And that's what politics is in Nigeria, and it is very very bad.

She didn't include the new discovery in the north. # lizard shit


But wait
Is that hypo am seeing there
People just like poison

Urine Ojo mewa

I wonder d kinda highness in such poison

I thought it's only me in awe of this.
What is giving them inspiration on the substance to use to become a 'royal' highness??

lofty900:
U didn't even mention the heavy hail of ice blocks that was falling from the sky and smashing peoples windscreens in iwofe, rumuigbo axis of Port Harcourt. Today was really hell.

Are you around Iwofe too? It wasn't funny today. It was one kind of rain.

I clap for people with sound memory enough to bring these to the fore. Till now, Nigeria has hardly had a leader.
It gets worsened per each regime that masses would always wish that the previous regime should be brought back just because the present is as a torn in the flesh and a worse evil.

Not it is not.
It is for consolidation of change agenda, such as commitments to herdmen's ploy, fighting corruption war in words and on media, being faithful to folks of the party, continuity in parading old cargoes in appointments in the most bizarre lopsided manner ever witnessed...and so on, and so forth.

Yours sincerely

SalamRushdie:
The first problem is that he found out from the pages of Newspapers but that's not the major problem , the big issue is what has he done about it since finding out?

You must be worse than a M0R0N to still support Buhari at this point

Of course, anyone who is still bent on supporting him must be worse than him. He must be logically blind and sense-wise dumb.
All these are still some preambles. If he should come again second term, the whole nation will be turned into theatre of absurd comedy.
One day, many strange, funny news: Nigeria of today.

Shalomc:
See simple attire of the fiercest military commander in the world..... And the plenty ropes of that who cannot stop ordinary herdsmen and boko haram.

Your Savage comments...oh my!
You really cracked me up

It is not by plenty acquisition of 'ropes'....lol

Very talented dude...He could act several personality all at once..

That guy was a genius in his chosen career.
No one has replaced him yet. I still wonder how he knew deep things he used to say. Very unparalleled.

merryossai:
there is nothing like a moral politician. the moment osibanjo got into politics he stopped being a pastor! politics is a diabolic and dirty game and requires dirty people to get into it. Any one that doubt how dirty politics is should go to a juju priest and attempt to kill buhari or osibanjo, I promise u and your juju man won't live to see d next minute of d day.
#osibanjo n bubu is evil

Thanks.
I said something along this line before.
To be a 'Pastor' and a politician in Nigeria is almost on the same line with impossibility. Politics in Nigeria is not really it but a thing very similar to cult circle. This is why an average good-intentioned person will get to the circle, or assume power and won't make any difference.
The will of the people of the circle (political affliation and interest) always has prevalence ahead of doing the country overall good, irrespective of if you were Bishop before joining.
Is it that Osibanjo doesn't know what is right to do, no...it is rather because he can't stand out among the circle that empowered him. Standing out is not impossible, but he has chosen to also sell integrity in place of relevance, for the time being, same which history won't forget or forgive.

fergie001:
Of incalculable proportions.

And bestial proclivity.

When you miss true achievements, you will begin to count shit, simply because you are a numskull, and you would be believed by dumbasses.

By the way, Nigerians despite their religion diversities pray much more than most of other countries. Why the more you look, the less you see?

'I am not understanding' like someone would say.

My own is resigning and letting go is a great esteem in place of an unending blame apportioning and excuses why things won't work in Nigeria.
Since it has turned that it is spiritual forces that are delaying election manifestoes from becoming a reality in Nigeria after campaign, same forces I believe must be responsible for this government ability to lie without blinking.
In anyways, it seems there are no spiritual forces stopping them in Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, etc

I think someone is called a Pastor by the way...who should understand spirituality more?


...tired of fixing blame up and down Sir

1 day, 100 odd news.
Nigeria, what is happening?

Absurd, yet funny nation.

SadiqBabaSani:
Bihari just lost the coming election

Somehow something would have to orchestrate his being ousted out, and he has just goofed well. He has hit his penalty kick to throwing.
In the private, he and his folks would be wishing he didn't make that comment by now.
Youths replying him online is not pleasing to me much, the time of reply is next election. Hope the youths could just bail the country out from the abyss cluelessness of some old fools, having personal interest above national interet, is bent on throwing the future of the country.

dunkem21:
I concur though none of the duo did it well..

Can't they accept for once that their principal made a mistake and apologize for it?

Adeshina has always been busy defending his paymaster wrong or right, thus becoming a fool in the process.

End of a generation in Arsenal, either good or otherwise, the judgement rests with the chapters that follow.

slapandfall:
The only solution to Nigeria is going to beg the British to come back and rule us. We should apologize to them for asking for our independence.

I am pretty sure if Nigeria was still ruled by the White man, at least we would have had electricity by now.

Yeah, I have said it before. It may look absurd but the white would have managed Nigeria better than the way it is today. The presence of the white in South Africa though created apartheid but could it have been concidental that it is far developed than most African countries, if not all because they were ruled for long by the white? What is wrong with black man?

The most controversial Senator of all time

I always imagine how and why a Senator would wear an academic dress to the Chamber.

It is not him, he can't just help it himself.
He belongs to the comedy hall of fame
