Now people understand how the leaders of Zimbabwe and other countries could/can stay that long in power. There are always people ik the populace that are willing to support them and stand with them.

There are always people who are willing to give them support and ask then to do things contrary to what is right.

You should know what you said is total crap.

While I don't have interest in who wins or loses the US election, I believe no one should be forced to accept an election they believe was rigged against them. Hillary didn't accept same with those that voted her, they did all she could to 'reclaim' their mandate. All over the world it's like that, even in Nigeria it happened.

Why then does it have to be different now? Is it because people so much hate Trump or what exactly?

People just want their preferred candidate to win irrespective of whether it was a free and fair election or not. Which is very terrible.


All of you should not let your emotions(hate as the case maybe), stop you from thinking rightly.


If Trump and those who voted him feel he won the election, he/they have the right to challenge it in court and that’s exactly what he's done.

All these crap people share in order to sound smart is just what it is; crap!!!

If the girl is in Christ then old things have passed away

Marriage is actually a family/traditional thing not a spiritual or church package.

The church is there to sanction your decision as well as your parents'.

No be Christ dey marry una na your parents.

That's because scripture was written by Arabs and Jews of the Middle East, and it is part of their own culture and custum


Bride price is a cultural thing and it is dumb to jettison your own culture for Arab and Jewish culture

na wa oh.

you no sabi read.

he even stated it that in African traditions its the same which is true.

You still went on to babble.

DamZik:
Thank you Mr Governor. I was one of the people that criticized you in the other thread. May God bless you and your government.

I am Damola from Odua Nation.

May God bless him for this?

The idiot has followed in the footsteps of his predecessors. They're ruining the state more and more.

Coldie:
Nigeria needs to copy this system.

With electoral college if u like have a population of 10m your state voting power is almost same with a state with a population of 3million

no, not correct. A state with a higher population will always have highet electoral votes

Sunisonflex39:
Is it only me that thinks that this electoral college setting is easy vote buying.. A president can walk up to a governor or so and pay him so and so dollars to vote for him.. At least this one will be easier than going over to the citizens to share tradermoni farmermoni feedingmoni and all sort of nonsense moni we have here in Nigeria..

no, it's not like that.

The OP didn't explain it well for you.

For the majority of states(about 48 or so) the person who wins the popular votes automatically wins the state's total electoral votes.

Also each state is allocated a certain number of electoral votes according to their representatives or population(something along that line).

Do you know that Trump won many more states than Hillary? that's why he won the presidency. The electors cannot just go vote against the winner of the popular votes of their respective state.

To be very frank the electoral college is a very good system that makes sure a few states do not continue to dictate who becomes the president over and over.

Wetin be this?

Cryptofxt10:
Okay sir. Its very obvious you are one of those MBA clients. Well, I'm not against your company sir. I'm only here to train those willing to learn how to fish themselves.

On the contrary, am neither a client nor a staff of the business. I just had to set the records straight

Cryptofxt10:
Greed is the cause...

Settle down and learn forex trading yourself instead of dashing your hopes in fictional hands.

We train forex monsters from beginner stage to elite stages with real life market experience.

load of crap.

I rather invest in a business like MBA forex than pay forex trainers like you to teach me. Because if it was paying you very much, you won't bother teaching me but will be actually trading and making bank.

Just like MBA forex is doing, I've read so many testimonials which suggest that whatever they've been doing for years(3) is really working well. Unlike you and your likes that resorted to training people on forex because you couldn't make bank from it yourself.

Luckydubby7:
It was planned work.
Don't spare him pls.

I'm not sparing him. What am saying is they don't take orders from him. He doesn't have constitutional powers to stop them.

The president can even declare state of emergency in the state so that he'll 'seize' to be a governor.

Kelvinhunta:
Can u read what u just posted? That u didn't plan robbery but u were aware it's been planned and u failed to speak up also makes u an accomplice. Do people have sense at all?

Maybe he should have spoken, but him speaking won't stop the police and military from taking orders from the president.

Luckydubby7:
But Edo state governor was first to declared 24 hour curfew army didn't shot anybody.

I'm talking about the shootings at Lekki.

While the governor might have been aware, he couldn't have ordered it or even stopped it. The tyrant wants to see blood spill the governor can't stop him.

Luckydubby7:
Sanwo-Olu you are wicked and devilish.
God Almighty go judge u.

but let's be honest, there's little he could do. The bloody tyrant in chief controls both the military and police

myBraine:
I don't understand

What's the agenda behind these protests?

Protesting against policing of the Nigerian people

I am in shock.

Are you blind, deaf or both?

Nobody is saying the Nigerian police should be disbanded, only a rogue unit should be.

They're more criminal than the actual criminals(robbers and kidnappers) they're supposed to fight.


SARS has outlived its usefulness.

Mrscarter:
I don't understand how the people put up with such a miserable depressing impressed lifestyle. I'd sooner die fighting for freedom than having myself n my loved ones live that way. It's not living

Like you've been fighting for here in Nigeria.

Make una sha dey calm down

Olam09:
Bro goan check YouTube videos about NK i don't think you really know everything about that weird country. Go and check drew binsky video about north Korea

Exactly! Drew Binsky. I watched his NK videos as well as other countries.

When I read the crap this guy has been spewing on this thread I shrugged because I know he's just one of those ill informed kids going about spreading their ignorance that's been masked as intelligence and knowledge. Gave him two questions to answer he ran away.


They think anything anti-West must be good and the West bad. So whatever rumor that pops into their head must be truth. Crazy folks.

omenka:
Thinking I was even attempting to debate a sensible adult, didnt realise you're one of those ignorant little arrogant kids around here.

My apologies for the mistake.

Good night.

Here we go again.

By your first reply, I can say you're the one who's not only unintelligent and lacking of information regarding the topic of discussion but also perpetually angry.

Should feel sad to be.

Good night too, but remember to have something chilled, should go a long way.

omenka:
China is a Communist state and one of the most economically and technologically advanced countries in the world. Whenever US and China sneeze, the world catches cold. China is poised to topple US as the world's dominant power, reason why we have this unending diplomatic skirmishes between the two countries.

So, what now would you say? Perhaps you'd shift your goal to "mention one country BESIDES CHINA".

You're a huge joke.

Maybe you should read my response to folks like you who keep parroting China is a communist state.

Yoruba had IFA and runmila, and once you made people cry of their hard earned months of harvest you got afflicted.... European slave traders and missionary said every "sin" God forgive because Yeshua son of Yahweh of Isreal permits it, same Jesus the brutaly murdered by their emperor


.

What the hell are you even saying?
Sounding very incoherent.

You left my other reply on the topic of communism simply because you lack knowledge on the matter, now am calling out your darling North Korea for not granting its citizens the freedom you're so proud of. Now you're rambling about almost totally different topic.

Why not stay on course?

solmus:
You serve who you want, that's freedom humans should have, and you should practice whatever religion, follow who ever you like Jesus of Kim Jong ung


.

Look at you mentioning North Korea and freedom in the same sentence.

I'm glad you're talking about every human having freedom of worshipping whoever or whatever they want but unfortunately your darling North Korea does not grant its citizens that same freedom.

francisgodstime:
Russia nd china

Bad examples.

Read my reply to the guy that mentioned both countries.

See a TL;DR version: They're not communist states.

Liposure:
cuba; and that was before. Although its a socialist state

Cuba is a good example but it's right now a practically dead state, something as simple as new cars cannot be found in the country only cars from the 80s.

I'm not asking for countries practicing communism, am asking for countries that have been favoured.

solmus:
China and Russia

.

This clearly shows you lack knowledge of the subject matter.

Mentioning China would have been partly acceptable but Russia? No way.

The last time Russia was a communist state was when they were all USSR(the soviet union) ever since the collapse of the union, Russia seized to be a communist state.

On to China, people erroneously categorize it as a communist state either for political reasons or social reasons. But one of the very basic tenets of a communist state is that private property/business ownership is not allowed, but that is not the case in China. Lots of the Chinese companies you know are privately owned, and that alone is enough. I don't need to go deeper into explaining other aspects.

Communism has rather killed more people throughout history than it has favoured, a quick research into the subject would go a long way in helping you.

Even modern day proponents of communism, have a weird defense for communism, whenever it is mentioned that communism has killed too many people.
And what's the defense you'd ask?

"...true communism has never been practiced by any country"

solmus:
The Kim don't have to leave power, Democracy is not for all, Monarchy and Communism has favoured many countries and western democracy is still throwing many people off

The truth is majority of North Koreans are not fools and they know what they want and what style of Government they prefer hence no nationwide complain , just handful of defectors conniving with the west


.

I just had to join this conversation when you uttered a blunder, I don't care about other aspects but one.

Please do mention one country that has been favoured by communism.

I don't have problems with monarchy, because it is purely a system of government whereas communism is not.
What I mean is a country or state operating on monarchy can still be a capitalist state. While communism on its own, is not just an economic system it doubles as a system of government too.
I don't know why you had to mention both monarchy and communism in the same line as they're not closely related.

Finally, back to my question; please do mention one country that has been favoured by communism.

Thank you

introvert2:
Some are of the opinion that they are geniuses. Is that really true or is it a matter of hard work? comments pls.

They read and/or practice more.

Also having a retentive memory will help you in remembering what you've read and practiced.

I no be first class oh. But that is the difference reading more and practicing more.

ehix89:
GTFOH dude, i wanted to be civil with you and you want me to condescend to your filthy attitude.

You're a typical example of a dunderhead.

I made my opinio known, from nowhere you started assuming things. I had to set you straight.

Imagine, learn to read and comprehend then take a deep breath before replying.
Don't go about sharing nonsense.

mu2sa2:
There's no doubt about it. If you hear what citizens pay as tax there, eh! All those posting Nigeria this or that are the same people that evade tax, yet want the govt to provide everything.

No mind them, with things like these come higher taxes

ehix89:
Com'on, its not even that, are you telling me there is any basis for comparison between Nigeria and Luxembourg as regards quality of life

Did I ever compare both?

Where in my post did I compare both countries?

Try to understand before replying and stop assuming things.

ruggedtimi:
tax Haven nation

No sir.
They pay upto 42% as income tax

ehix89:
Make e increase

Because you're in Nigeria and not the one paying it

taxes will increase ASAP

Bellfun:
You make me laugh!..

Do you even know the implications of your wish??!! Please think it through before you post it! Such emotions are destructive!

This same old line of thought.

There's nothing worse than what Nigerians are experiencing right now.
Despite guns being illegal, criminals are still armed.

That is to essentially tell you that gun laws are meant to stop law abiding citizens from protecting themselves contrary to what you've been led to believe.

Every single day that passes by there's a always a gun related crime committed in Nigeria despite guns being illegal, tell me what logical sense does it make then that guns are illegal?

Let me be frank and honest to you, I live in the south east and I fear for what could possibly happen of the herdsmen that are heavily armed invade the area I live in. We absolutely can not stage any form of resistance, do you know what that means?

Or you want us to go to a gun fight with a knife?


Nigeria is in a very pathetic state right now, and the best thing the government should do is allow Nigerians who are capable of arming themselves to do so, maybe they should limit the kind of guns that could owned. Not this total ban.

Prior to Buhari's administration sef, you could be allowed to own a shot gun once you meet the requirements but now nothing. Makes me to wonder if it was a plan between him and his fulani herdsmen.
