Cook indomie for her. Don't forget to wash the indomie and then add salt

Chai!

Africa's ignorance keeps getting back at us.

Until we start trying to solve these problems ourselves and stop expecting god to save us we will continue to wallow in destruction and self pity

This is a classic example of the christian god fighting against the muslim god.

While the christians are busy bemoaning their plight and blaming themselves for their god's inefficience the muslims are busy singing praises to their god for their victory over the christians.

Pitiful

Looking forward to that... have a pleasant day

Is there a market for artworks?

I used to represent a company called PLAMA located in Haan that produces plastic manufacturing machines. Send me an email @ soh.8686@yahoo.com with your reply. Thanks

Ymodulus:
nice one. Thanks learnt something.

Same here

Ymodulus:
Do you think its that easy?
Now lets be little bit pessimistic, what if after working and solving, you still never succeeded?

That's not possible. I believe that by doing the same things that successful people do OR by applying the basic principles of success its impossible not to succeed.

If you don't succeed then you're definitely doing something wrong

Joshthefirst:
Your point of view is wrong, because it is illogical. Especially your definition of atheism. If you adhere to that definition then you have no grounds to say that God does not exist. If you simply lack belief in God then you shouldn't have any opinion or point of view about him, especially about his existence.

Let me define atheism for you: It is the adamant stance that God does not exist.

And babies, as they grow, must be taught, we must come in contact with some form of knowledge or another. What matters is if that knowledge is truth or a lie.
I was taught the inherent and powerful supported truth of the existence of a God, and the way to strike a relationship with him. And you currently believe in a lie.

Let's not derail the thread

Joshthefirst:
Atheism is cultural actually.

My POV: Atheism is the non belief of a god or supremem being. Babies come to this world without a knowledge of god or anything else for that matter and as they grow their parents, society etc tell them lies about a god blah blah blah

Kindly explain your pov

This must be the reason why our leaders never feel concerned about the Nigerian education sector. There should be a law barring public officials from sending their kids abroad to study or travelling out for medical check up.

The level of their lack of shame is alarming. When will David Cameron send his son to unilag?

thoth:
Sadness and a feeling of facing a problem bigger than you alone makes one like me, I want to say that people should read more and try to discuss logically among peers on topics of important , but then someone would ask how do we make them read or discuss logically after that……

Such a feat can only be achieved by visionary leaders and not the crop of corruptible, visionless, self centered leaders we have in Africa. We will have to hit the problems at the very core such as our laws/legislation, educational sector, total/systematic eradication of all religious beliefs.

It would also be paramount to note that we have to differentiate our laws from our beliefs(tribal or religious). Laws should only be made specifically to benefit the black race.

Akanigbo should have something to add to this discussion. Propably with his vast knowledge of history he can help figure out where the missing link is and give us a clue on how we can plan a solution.

plaetton:
Beautiful.
This is exactly where I wish to go with this discussion.
I am have material that I will be presenting.

The reason the question is sooo relevant is because there cannot be a crime if there is no victims.
If we don't see ourselves as victims, then no crime has been comitted worthy of investigating and seeking justice, redress and rehabilitation.

But this is where the problem lies. We have been caught in this trap for so long it now seems like its the best place to be.

You have to give it to white men though, when they steal they just don't steal money. Nooooo. They also steal your future

My initial comment should have been longer but I use a blackberry. This happens to be an issue that I have pondered myself over the years and the truth is that blacks have been systemically taken advantage of. Everything we represent today are exactly what was planned by the whites.

However, I do believe there is a solution and it has to be as systematic as the cause.

mujahid1339:
atheism is also foreign

Actually, atheism is natural. Everyone is born without the belief of a god until someone starts lying to them

4. CASH ON DELIVERY
This will help you to cut away all doubts in the mind of the customer but the disadvantage there is that some people might not really want to buy but at the end of the day you will be the one to lose that delivery fee you paid earlier.

But don’t be discouraged because not every body will do that it is always 2/10.

To go about this Cash on Delivery service, contact any shipping agency to negotiate for this service.

But Tranex can help you deliver this service to your customers.

They do that for FREE but you will have to register with them with #20,000.

They will be deducting from this money each time you have an order also they will give you there branded packaging material which you will be using to package your goods.
And the good thing is that they do door to door shipping.

But I will not be dropping the number of the Tranex guy in charge of this service because of security reasons but if you need it, you can contact me on BBM (5647201E) so I can send it to you.

To be continued later....

I like this

XXXXXXXXXXX:
He is a spirit.. He entered into the serpent

Before or after he was cast down? Or are you trying to insinuate that this period was the beginning of his revolt?

XXXXXXXXXXX:
Which event to be exact?
Satan was cast out of heaven down to earth because of his ambitions (to be bigger than God).-Just before Genesis 3

The devil entered into the serpent as it was the closest creature to man.

N/B This is the missing link that scientists are looking for..

He then used the serpent to bring about the fall of the human race.

Thank you.

I do believe that there is another part of the bible that states that after the angels were cast down they were like giants and they slept with humans. This is even the basic ground for greek mythology. Please forgive my inability to quote the exact passage. If it doesn't exist then I'm certainly wrong

However, if that's the case then it means that there were already lots of humans existing at the time whereas the story of the garden of eden dates at around the time when only Adam and Eve existed thus its hard to say that lucifer was already cast down because as narrated in the other story there were already lots of humans existing.

urheme:
I would'nt use the word genocide for a culture that have outlived its usefulness and almost non existence.
Culture as we know is been given new meaning as they can nolonger be exalted above statute, culture actually play less role in our land these days because people no longer submit to it, people are more civilise now and have done away with certain traditions which they term barbaric. Eg, the position of the traditional ruler as an arbiter in a matter has died a natural death with the emergence of the customary and area courts, customary disolution of marriages and custody are now done there, this is to ensure equity, justice and good conscience and i believe this is inline with best international practices, that a custom must pass a repungnancy test. Or die a natural death.

So my dear, i believe our culture and tradition is being quickly faced out.

My two kobo contribution

I believe the op is asking if there was a planned and deliberate attempt at ensuring that our culture be "given a new meaning" so that it can "play a less role in our society".

My answer is yes. When the europeans decided to journey into Africa, they developed a well planned strategy to ensure that their rule be guaranteed on this new "discovery" of theirs. First, they started by claiming they "discovered" Africa. How on earth do you discover a place where people already live in, have families, built societies and had their own culture and history really beats me.

In the beginning, our ancestors ate these people but in some parts welcomed them maybe out of sheer curiosity at the clothings, the way they spoke, their huge ships and gifts.

These series of events gave room to the idea of the need to teach the black man their ways. I don't mean to digress but ask yourself, when you travel to another country, do you teach those people Yoruba or hausa or igbo or do you learn their own language? I believe its far easier to learn the other person's language afterall there is a larger population of igbos in Lagos who speak Yoruba as opposed to the number of Yorubas in Lagos who speak igbo.

However, the white man did the exact opposite. Instead, they gave our ancestors gifts in the form of their kind of clothing. They set up schools and started teaching us English. They set up churches and taught us about Jesus Christ all the while saying, "you don't dress properly. Our language is better than yours. All your gods are false, serve the one and only true god". They even went as far as setting up their own "government" and the irony is that they said our kings and queens were below their government and laws even though ironically, they did all these "in the name of the queen".

Then they decided to carter our ancestors away as "slaves" after recognising their obvious physical strenght by conniving with the kings of old and bribing them with gifts and titles. After using these slaves for centuries they went ahead and taught them only about white leaders before the blacks were able to educate themselves and demand the inclusion os "black history" as in the case of America. However, they were able to steal over 1000years of Africa's development.

And their plan worked.

Today we have a generation that believe it is "razz" to speak your own language or even pidgin English. Listen to Nigerian radio stations and most of the presenters can't even pronounce their own names. Our youths believe serving our own gods will lead us to hell without realising that by believing in such a statement you have condemed every single one of your ancestors to eternal damnation. People believe you are Behind when you eat salad, burgers, meat pie, pizzas, sharwarma and will quickly say "yuck" to our own eba, amala etc despite the fact that our foods are more economical and healthy etc

So, once again I say YES to the ops assertion. Africa is a victim of cultural genocide

If pastors gather and pray for your head

You go pose like a goalkeeper

Hahaha

That's what you call the serious business pose. In his mind he'll be like "father, send your mumu sons and daughters because I need a new private jet"

Salary rhymes with slavery. I wonder why?

Really? All in the name of ass-kissing

Kaykaymil:
Lol no time make she give them call a stitch in time saves nine.

I admire your advert strategy. Do you guys need marketers?

The tendency for Africans to claim respect even when they don't deserve it

This is a good development. At least it will reduce the possibility of us listening to that pile of poo

Won't complain

PointB:
Good. That's the spirit.

voltron:
Unfortunately girls will continue to be raped in Nigeria and the culprits go unpunished, worse the victims lose hope of ever receiving justice and continue their lives marked with the trauma of the experience.

Violence Against Women is almost natural in some Nigerian Cultures and ignored in most. The Police never treat rape cases as a crime, they see it as a domestic issue or one to be handled by NGOs. I hate Nigeria and will always do. We never care about Life and Feelings of others.

Bro, tell me about it. Its almost as if we're incapable of running a civilised society

PointB:
Learn!
