Enigma: ^ It is not even correct to say that the Roman Catholics "compiled" the Bible as my posts above have argued; it is neither correct to say that the first Bible had 73 books. It is in fact a lie. wink

BusinessRe: Banks To Replace ATM Card With Finger Print. by ifenadi(m): 10:15am On Nov 06, 2013
You guys are gettin all wrong. Finger print is not going to replace 'ATM' cards rather it is going to be a second authentication in a bank for every cash withdrawal either from ATM or across the counter. In the case of ATM ,after inserting your card and entering Card's pin, you will be required to authenticate the transaction further with finger print which will confirm that you are the owner of the account, before the machine will allow you to withdraw. Likewise if you want to withdraw accross the counter, you will also be required to further identify yourself with your finger print. It is not a replacement to ATM cards rather an additional security to it
PoliticsRe: CAN Bans Political Campaigns In Churches by ifenadi(m): 10:33pm On Nov 04, 2013
chukwudi44: Freeglobe please speak for yourself.who told you obi has been bribing catholic bishops? Obi never campaigned there BTW the catholic church is no longer in CAN and Bishop Chukwuma is only speaking for protestants who only make just about 30% of the state population.

APC will never rule Anambra state!! I don't care who wins once that party is not APC.All I am interested in is that APC will never smell the Anambra Govt house.
You lied when you said that you are not interested in who wins as far as APC didn't win . We all know that the race is between APGA and APC. So if you don't want APC to win you clearly want APGA to win.
PoliticsRe: Obi Declares 3-Days Of Mourning In Anambra by ifenadi(m): 10:12pm On Nov 04, 2013
Anambra is my state and I am so worried the way things are turning out.

Can someone explain this to me;
1. Did the priest invited the party chairman and the APGA candidate too?
2. Why was peter Obi invited to the adoration? Were every other worshippers invited too?
3.Why did the priest rejected the money the governor donated to him and his ministry?
4. I had that peter Obi did not campaigned at the venue, what did he actually said apart from the 2m naira donation?
5. Why are peter Obi and Ngige always at political war?

May God help us.
PoliticsRe: Uke Stampede (survivors Account) by ifenadi(m): 9:22pm On Nov 04, 2013
ngoziama: I have patiently followed events that have unfolded in my state, Anambra. I marvel and get saddened over what the politicians have turned that state into. A state blessed with human and natural resources yet we have remained so backward in terms of development. It is true that debates have been held for the various guber aspirants but I still remain sad because of the shoddy manner that produced these so called candidates.Below is my candid analysis of the various political parties.I welcome hugs,slaps and insults from the readers;
APC: this party produced sen. Chris N Ngige by telling us that he was unanimously adopted in a manner that saw democracy thwarted.I marvel when people say that Ngige has been tested and trusted,well he built roads and I ask did he build these roads with his own money NO! He built it with the taxpayers money perhaps the way the politicians have reduced the masses to in Nigeria has made them to become so excited when amenities that they are even entitled to like good roads,clean and potable water,well equipped hospitals are provided.I am aware that ngige is a medical doctor but I am sorry to say that after the few stolen years he spent in office,he went on to build the Old English Hotel located in Awka out of a selfish interest.Perhaps if ngige had used some of the money he might have looted to put up a modest hospital or maternity in the state in his name and with the intention of treating poor masses without high charges,I would have been praising him now. But he never did,the hotel was for him to ensure he got richer after his tenure.Again,I would say that ngige should not even be campaigning after he arrogantly supported fashola's deportation of some ibos under hard and inhumane conditions. Anambrarians, if ngige selfishly put APC before us,of course he would sell off our lands to even the cattle rearers whom we all know have been on a killing spree in the country.chris ngige only had to build those roads after he fell out with his godfathers and wanted to be liked by the masses. How many jobs did ngige create,don't tell me he spent few years. NO not accepted.what machinery did he leave on ground for creation of jobs.if ngige could not stand by ndi ibo at their time of need because of APC,esteemed anambrarians,ngige would not protect ndi ibo when the time comes.ngige would betray us.ngige would expose us to dangers just to please tinubu and buhari.I stand to be called a tribalistic person but beneath my words lie the truth.If ngige could agree to visit okija shrine for power,then he should not be trusted.without apologies, ngige is not a competent material for the government house.politicians should stop using roads to campaign.they should exhibit ideas that would lead to job creation and not just employment.
I want to say that if a Fashola should join apga tomorrow and contest for governor in lagos,he would fail.It is a pity that we live in a country where ethnic sentiments cant be written off nor hidden. Let us tell one another the truth,tinubu would not even want anambra to see a brighter light even with a chris ngige.I don't care if ngige is intelligent or not,believe me his decisions as a governor would be influenced by tinubu and buhari(Full stop).Until we hold a true national conference where we can address some of these issues, we would continue to see one another differently as regards tribe and creed.
With regards to the adoration ground saga, I am so vexed that obi and ngige have chosen to use innocent anambrarians to play their dirty politics.they are trading words over the stampede without due respect to the dead. apga and apc are only scoring cheap political points.it is indeed a big shame that apga and apc chose a worship ground for this act. Ngige and Obi should hide their old faces in shame. what pains me is that the suffering masses kEep paying the price.it is time we separated religion from politics. HOWEVER, NGIGE SHOULD RESPECT THE DEAD AND STOP CAMPAIGNING WITH THE UKE INCIDENT. May the souls of the victims rest in peace.Amen
APGA: I really do not know where to start from. Peter obi is the greatest pretender of the time.peter obi in order to protect his empire disqualified the likes of dr Chike Obidigbo,soludo,obaze etc so that his obiano would become apga flagbearer.For the fact that willie obiano is aware that undemocratic process was followed to select him,he should hide his head in shame because he lacks integrity. I am aware that so much money exchanged hands betwEen obi and umeh to reach a compromise.honestly victor umeh is one man I am yet to understand when his tenure would expire.Greed,wickedness and selfishness mar that figure called victor umeh.I am also aware that obidigbo had challenged obi and his cabal at the court,obidigbo I learnt has also rejected billions of naira offered him by obi to rest his case and allow willie willie.obidigbo has also shown that he has got some british touch in him,do things the right way and if I lose honourably,I would rest.peter obi along the line became afraid of obidigbo whom he felt would not be loyal to him and I believe this is the more reason why a dr Chike Obidigbo should be the preferred candidate.obiano is not even confident in himself,have a good look at him and you will notice that. Willie willie is obi's handbag.obi has been lately generous and I laugh,perhaps apga the only identity of ndi ibo needs to be sustained.however,its so pathetic that it is about to be sustained through fraudlent moves by obi, obiano&umeh.chike obidigbo is a man I learnt brought back his business to his hometown just to ensure that the grassroot is positively imparted upon.I have once had a chat in a gathering with obidigbo and I felt so impressed with his knowlegde and ideas about job creation which is one issue so many leaders fail,have failed and are still failing to do.willie willie as a banker possesses that desperation to bring in cash for the bank.this could be seen in his desperate moves with obi to dump anambra cash in their bank.
Apga had better make a better decision in the person of Dr. Chike Obidigbo.
LP-well,ifeanyi ubah I must confess should have remained a philanthropist,governorship is not all about being wealthy otherwise the likes of bill gates,brandson,dangote should have been contesting for president.ubah is spending outrageous money in this campaign and needs to be cautioned.I am so scared whether anambra allocation can even be enough to pay uba back if he wins.am so afraid.it is only in nigeria that an ubah with all his pending court cases over the subsidy issue would even be vying for such an important seat. I also learnt uba is an impatient man who slaps people at any slightest mistake.well,we should brace up for ear problems if uba comes on board.
Pdp- nwoye,wonders would never cease happening.tony nwoye in the first instance shouldn't even have qualified as a candidate not to talk of being guber aspirant and flag bearer. Did tony nwoye actually graduate from unn or he was just given a let my people go grade just to fulfil all righteousness. Its a pity that the same man(andy uba) who made tony nwoye has been betrayed by him(tony). Such is life,tony nwoye should not even be a class representative.I am sure his kitchen cabinet would be abusing me now but I know they know am saying the truth. What was his performance as a so called student like.tony nwoye please go and rest,you sincerely do not have the wisdom,knowledge,exposure nor intelligence to rule us .we know the business mogul that is using you to distort andy ubas plans. Anyway,the era of pdp is over,be it andy,ukachukwu and nwoye.all of you should go and rest.
I sincerely pray that God should see anambra through.God,please give us an intelligent,god-fearing leader and not those that will use religion as camouflage.
In addition, I wish to let obi know that posterity will judge him for all the tricks he played alongside with pdp in denying the better candidate( obdidigbo) his mandate. Peter obi has forgotten how he became governor. He has forgotten how the court saved him.He has forgotten how he spent billions to pursue his case. Peter obi wants to be a godfather. Obi is using every machinery he has to fight obidigbo because he is afraid that he would not be loyal to him. Obi wants a puppet that will be paying millions to him,umeh and the uzu awka.Peter obi just the way you fought ngige to take back government house is the way obidigbo will fight you and willie willie.obi,the day of reckoning will surely come and all your plans to protect your NEXT copycat shop will fail.you re so ungrateful to God who set you on that seat after you were denied the seat through rigging.today you have used power of incumbency to rig DR. CHIKE OBIDIGBO out of the primaries.Willie Obiano is riding on a stolen horse and unless you return that mandate to the right candidate,you stand to incur more of God's wrath.OBI DROP YOUR EGO AND MAKE A BETTER CHOICE IN THE PERSON OF DR CHIKE OBIDIGBO.posterity will never forgive you if APGA,(ibos political identity)should lose out of your greed and emperor style of leadership.
Finally,ngige should not win to have us become tinubus slaves.at least we have seen how he forcefully installed his daughter as the iyaloja in lagos. The ibos have paid enough price and we are not ready to pay more price through ngige.Ngige as a senator,peter obi as a governor,both have failed to unravel the mystery behind those decomposing bodies that were found in the Anambra river. God please save anambra.Bring the right candidate because these men are all unserious and selfish.
Ndi Anambra,a word is enough for the wise.God bless Anambra State.

PoliticsRe: An Open Letter To Anambra Voters. by ifenadi(m): 9:39am On Nov 03, 2013
Is Peter contesting for 3rd tenure? Comments on this threads is just like it is peter Obi vs Ngige. Mentioning peter Obi's name more often makes Obiano unpopular . Those that are campaigning for APGA should tell us why we should vote for Obiano and not what Peter Obi has achieved.

But personally I will definitely vote for Ngige, even though peter Obi is presently constructing a road that pass through my family house in the village.

Bulldog: maths improve ones logic... Just saying smiley
there's a maxim that said, "If i cant trust you with one penny, why would i trust you with a billion pennies". If ngige can't keep his promise to one man(no matter the nature), i doubt he'll deliver to millions... A real man only accepts what he is capable of doing. That's like logic101.

you didn't know your mum and dad before you where born, but you trusted them smiley... That's getting too personal, sorry about that. My point is, you only get to know people by giving them a chance to prove they can be trusted. Again, it's like saying that you write like a fool and hence you must be a fool(no offence) or that i'm a criminal because my nickname sounded criminalish(a person that knows me is already laughing at this analogy smiley )
all politicians are thieves and you'll vote for two politicians(ngige and uba) If given the option instead of voting for a renouned human and financial manager(obiano). I've been trying to be civil for a while but i'm tempted to ask, what brand of crack do you smoke because i just noticed it's some quality stuff grin
Ok I see your points. Thanks and bye

Bulldog: i respect your conviction but the bad thing about trusting ngige, ask eselu about his experience wink
That is the more reason I trust him; he is the man of the people and not the other way round. I vote for personality and not party, I would have voted for Soludo if he had scaled thru. I don't know much about obiano and what he can do, he looks like someone that will take instructions from Godfather and I don't want any God fatherism in Anambra state again. Peter Obi does not have Godfather and that is why he achieved little he did without any form of interference from anybody. Almost all politicians are thieves and they become worse thieves when they have godfathers. Ifeanyi Uba might even do better than Obiano if he wins. if it is possible to vote for 2 people, I will vote for ngige twice

SportsRe: FIFA's World Player Of The Year Shortlist by ifenadi(m): 8:17pm On Oct 29, 2013
The article below was written after European football of the year was given to Ribery. I think the article explain some of your sentiments about Messi and Ronaldo. They still remain the best. Read on




[b]MONACO -- Last season, Andres Iniesta won the UEFA Best Player in Europe Award as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi looked on. The former looked grumpy (later there would be plenty of speculation in the Spanish media that he blamed his club for not "campaigning" on his behalf), the latter merely uncomfortable, staring down at his shoes with the sheepish grin of someone who would rather be anywhere else than decked out in a suit on the stage at Montecarlo’s Grimaldi Forum.

Awards are only as significant as the folks who choose the winners, the criteria laid out by the organizers and how closely the electorate follows those criteria.

Relative to the 500-plus who pick the FIFA Ballon d’Or winner, the UEFA Best Player in Europe Award has a smallish pool of voters: 53 journalists, one from each UEFA member nation. (Yes, even Andorra, San Marino and Liechtenstein; no the Vatican is not a UEFA member.)

Unlike the Ballon d’Or -- whose criteria are deliberately fuzzy and is based on a calendar year -- UEFA’s award has defined criteria: it goes to the "best player" in Europe during the 2012-13 season. And, unlike the Ballon d’Or, it’s basically a two-round vote. Jurors vote for their top three picks, who receive points based on a 5-3-1 system. The top three vote-getters then go on a shortlist and, on the day of the award, the 53 jurors vote for one guy each. In practical terms, it’s arguably a fairer system.

The "problem" is that sportswriters don’t like to follow the rules or, in this case, the criteria. You may feel that Franck Ribery was the most valuable player in Europe last season, that without him Bayern would never have won their Treble. Or you may feel that it’s only right to pick a guy from a team that won important silverware. Or you may just be tired by the hype machine that follows Ronaldo and Messi around everywhere they go, and yearn for a change.

That’s all great. Those are all fine reasons to vote for somebody. But if you observe the criteria, you should only consider one thing: who was the best in 2012-13.

Was it the guy who finished second in his domestic league and cup and took his team to the semi-finals of the Champions League, scoring 55 goals in 55 appearances in all competitions?

Or perhaps it was the guy who helped his team win the league with a record-equalling number of points, also took his side to the semis in Europe’s biggest cup competition and notched an outrageous 60 goals in 49e games?

For a plurality of the folks on the jury, the answer was "no". The answer was neither Ronaldo nor Messi.
It was Ribery.

There isn’t much point in reducing it to numbers, because his contribution goes beyond goals (but then, to be fair, so does Messi’s and Ronaldo’s), but if you want to go there, Ribery scored 11 goals last season while playing in 42 games.

What Ribery did was play exceptionally well in key games last season, particularly in the Champions League knockout round. But you can make an argument that, last year, the contributions of Phillip Lahm, Manuel Neuer, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Arjen Robben (certainly in the final) were also critical to Bayern’s success.

In some ways, we already saw this thinking last season, when Iniesta won it ahead of Messi and Ronaldo. Iniesta won the same silverware Messi did with Barcelona, but, on top of that, he was instrumental to Spain winning the Euros. Great season, reward for achievement. But nobody outside of his immediate family would suggest Iniesta was a "better player" than Ronaldo or Messi in 2011-12 which rather precludes him being "the best".

Is it just semantics? Sure, maybe. But words do matter.

Call it "Player of the Year".

Or "Most Valuable Player".

Or "Player-other-than-Lionel-or-Cristiano-who-we-want-to-recognize-otherwise-those-guys-will-win-every-award-between-them."

Just don’t call it "Best Player in Europe in 2012-13".

Because, simply put, he wasn’t.

It’s not a knock on Ribery, it’s a knock on the award and those voting for it.

What’s happening here is that we’ve taken the brilliance those two guys have displayed over the past few seasons and turned it into some kind of normality. Well, it’s not normal. This isn’t like when baseball moved out of the dead ball era and everybody started hitting home runs. The total number of goals being scored has remained constant. It’s just these two guys -- and these two guys alone -- who have started scoring in industrial quantities and doing it for years at a time.

Ribery is an exceptional footballer on an outstanding team that deservedly broke records last year, losing just three games in all competitions. But it takes some mental acrobatics to say he’s the "best player" in Europe.

what is your thought?

Nairaland GeneralRe: Why Is It That The Top/ceiling Of A House Is Always Painted White? by ifenadi(op): 12:45pm On Oct 29, 2013
Youngsage: [b]Most ceilings are painted white because of their reflective qualities, making a room
seem brighter and larger than it may really be. May also help in keeping heat away though not necessarily.
The darker the colour, the LOWER the ceiling looks. Painting it in light colours gives it height. Same with walls, a dark
painted room always appears
smaller.
In reality of course they are the size that they are, it's all a matter of appearance (illusion).
Notice I used "MOST", because ceilings are NOT ALWAYS painted white!
Not all ceilings are painted white, it's depends on one's choice, creativity, e.t.c.
I've seen red, green, even rainbow ceilings. But most formal buildings like offices, churches, schools. e.t.c paint theirs white, conventionally. Some ceiling materials also come in variant colours other than white, like brown, as in the wood grain asbestos finish.

Harwo: White colour repels heat the most, while black colour absorbs heat the most. With white colour, u can keep ur room relatively cool even when the Sun is spitting fire. Why do people in hot Asian countries countries like Saudi, UAE wear white maaterials? Do uthink it is for fun? Nope!!!!!!........Simple science.
I know that white colour reflects heat the most while black color absorbs most of the heat. If that is the case then it will not be entirely advisable to paint the ceiling white in tropical region like africa where our temperature is always high as most of the heat generated within the room will be reflected back to the room by the white celing. It will be ok to do that in temperate region like europe but not in africa. Thus, i do not agree with the bolded

SportsRe: Sepp Blatter: Africa Needs More World Cup Slots by ifenadi(m): 1:11am On Oct 29, 2013
0monnakoda: What insult? That you should be quiet?You must be a very SENSITIVE BOY?.There is no machine to measure quality and the only objective way is to give everyone an equal chance and then we can start talking quality. Right from the first day Africans entered the competition they have been given minority slots based on the ASSUMPTION European teams have greater quality when in reality the European teams have GREATER NUMBERS. In fact Since 1958 for the first time in 2010 the Europeans won the competition back to back . The performance of Europe is NOT better than South America but they have many more slots than South America . What is that about?. I am not interested in betting or hypotheses . Let us give everyone an equal chance and see what happens. The better performance of European teams is because they have more slots. Africa as a continent will have a better chance if they have 10 teams than when they have 5

This is not about quality but about power influence and money. Europe shoul not have more than 8 teams at the World Cup. Fifa makes more money selling TV rights in Europe and that is why the status quo persists. Don't succumb to modern colonial mentality.

FIFA rankings are often very reliable and according to FIFA ranking Nigeria is NOT the best Team in Africa

My daughter is still in KG 2 and just like her father she asks a lot of questions. I always try as much as I could to give her correct answers to most of her puzzles. Recently she started asking some difficult questions and I was wondering if she is still just 3 years old.
Today as she was playing with her twin brother, she asked, 'daddy, why is it that top wall of our house is painted white in all the rooms while the side walls has different colors". I thought about the question and told her we just want to use white color. She continued, "our neighbors' house, their ceiling is white color too, even grand mama house in the village is the same thing". I responded again, "maybe they like white color too. And I was allowed to rest.

But deep within me I know the answer I gave was wrong. I thought about this for some minutes and I can't conjure the correct answer and I really intend to give my daughter the correct answer once I find it.

So I am asking you guys now, Why is it that the top/ceiling of a house is always painted white?

Christianity EtcIs Morning Prayer At Home Before Church Services On Sunday Important? by ifenadi(op): 10:52am On Oct 20, 2013
I was raised in a very decent home and I grew up learning how to prayer every morning and evening on daily basis from my parents. However my parent don't prayer on Sunday morning before attending church services.I don't know their reason for that; all I know is that once we wake up we will start preparing to attend 6:00am mass ignoring every other thing. I learnt that too until I got married and my wife will always insists we pray everyday including on Sunday morning.
Recently I visited a friend who is a pastor and I spent some days in his house. I noticed that he prays every morning and evening in his house apart from Sunday morning. When I tried to find out from him, he said he is always in a haste on Sunday morning and he can't afford not to be in church on time, that he prays whenever he gets to church.
This left me to wonder, why do most people don't pray on Sunday morning ? Is morning prayer at home before church services on Sunday important?

PoliticsWhat Is The Role Of Policemen At Check Point by ifenadi(op): 2:17pm On Oct 15, 2013
Just wondering the role of police officers at various check points along Nigerian roads.Apart from police we have other force men along the roads and thief role are very clear to me:

CUSTOM OFFICERS
They will ask you of your custom papers only. Once they are satisfied with the documentation they will let you go

ROAD SAFETY
They are simply interested if you are wearing your seat belt and that you are not over speeding, over loaded or driving dangerously.If they stopped you, they will simply check if you have a valid drivers license, if you have good spare tyre, fire extinguisher and caution signs. They might go further to check if your travel gator and break lights are working properly.

SOLDIER(MILITARY MEN)
If they stop you, they will just check if you there so many male occupant in the vehicle. If that is the case, they will ask everybody to come down while they search each person for any incriminating items or arms. They might go further to search the vehicle buts, pigeon hole, under the seats and so on.

AGBERO
You will see these guys mainly in commercial cities. They are just after public vehicles. Once they stopped you, they will check if you have purchased their tickets and once you are cleared you are good to go.

POLICE.
They perform virtually all the role explained above and that is what I don't seem to understand. A police officer will stop you, search your buts, search all the occupant of the vehicle, search the pigeon hole. Request for your drivers license, your vehicle particulars and some cases custom papers. Ask you to open your bonnet, check your engine and engine number, check your chassis number for correctness. Check if you have fire extinguisher and have a spare tyre. If you are not on seat belt, you will be booked too. And so on and so on. You can add yours

The first time it happened to me, I thought it was actually a mistake as claimed by the attendant until It repeated several times. I visited a filling station in Asaba(name withheld) and there were two persons serving at the pump. The first person asked me, "how much do you want to buy" and I hold her 5 thousand naira. The 2nd guy proceeded to fill my tank resetting the meter to zero and not bothering to confirm the price I want to buy from the lady or me.To my surprise this guy stopped at 1000 naira and when I asked him why he stopped he said he thought I said I wanted to buy 1000 naira( I wondered where he got that message from cus he did not ask me or the lady whom I told I want to buy 5000k).

He then pressed some buttons at the meter as if he wanted to reset the meter to zero, meanwhile the thing still reads 1000 naira before he proceeded(if you do not look well you not see the 1 in front of the zeros). Again at 4000 naira He stopped . I now shouted , bros I told you I wanted to buy 5000 naira. He said that if I add the 4k to 1k he gave me initially that it will be 5k. I was confused but when I insisted that he didn't reset the meter. He quietly completed the remaining 1k. This happened again in the same filling station and that was when I realized it was their game.

I decided to change filling station and to my greatest surprise they use the same trick in Asaba and so many people are falling victims especially those that do not like to come down from their car while buying fuel.

phil5: Truth be told I watched that thing pass 5 times and am convinced that he caught the ball immediately after the line,or on the line narrowly







But una won go wold cup at our own expense,no e nor go happen.
When you watched it 5 times, did you see the ball across the line 5 times. I watched it more than 10 times and I see nothing. Different tv replays could not ascertain whether they are goals or not. Even the linesman that waved his flag for the given goal was not along the goal line to be sure, so I wonder how he saw it. Nobody is too sure my dear. Ethiopia should learn how to hit the ball on the net until they have a goal line technology.
