rottenPussy:
How does this relate to my post?

I'm referring to those dumb heads here, who are not exposed an can only treat malaria, tell you to do irrelevant test for a simple blade cut just so they can fetch money for them to share..
The same "dumb" Nigerian doctors here, do marvellously well abroad. Do you know why? It's the environment. The conducive environment out there, makes it easier for doctors there. Even the Nigerian doctor that assisted in the foetal surgery was trained in a Nigerian medical school. If he stayed back in Nigeria, his potentials would have not blossomed because of lack of conducive environment( materials, man power, equipment, machines) here.

Your hatred for Trump won't let u see the Bigger picture. Hillary lost for so many reasons. One she plan to continue the unpopular Obamacare which is even very expensive and out of the reach of average Americans. 2. She is an avowed abortionists and planned to increase federal funding of planned parent hood which incensed the Conservative Christians especially the catholics who re the largest denominations. About 5,000,000 babies are Aborted in America yearly and black women account for 31 percent of abortions. 3. She planned to continue with Obama's promotion of homosexuality, forcing if religious group to wed guys, lesbians, transgender, and many like reason 2 above were determined against her ascension to the White house. 4. Many Americans never forgave her for causing the death of four Americans including an ambassador in Benghazi,Libya and the email scandals despite FBI exonerating her. 5. The attempt where her campaign team attempted to stir a revolution with the Catholic Church was one of her greatest undoing. This greatly incensed catholics who love their church so much despite not really living up to its teachings.
Yet she won the majority vote. Meaning that majority of average Americans are in conformity with liberalism.

okusebi:
get a closer look, there is no hollow labyrinth, so how does the sound gets transmitted to the tympanic membrane ? also the external ear only has a small role to play in conducting sound, someone can even live without the external ear, although with much hearing loss and lastly, hearing is as a result of conversion of sound waves into electrical impulses by the cochlea to the brain, how does this happen with the ear in the arm, or is this the latest fashion?
He just grew the external ear in the hand, extracted it and grafted it into the man's head where the external ear should be.
I think it's more of aesthetics than anything else. What the man had in his hand was a growing tissue with the shape of the external ear and not an ear.

pls be specific @the emboldened..Anambra people not IGBO people...don't generalise everybody because of those Judas...thank U
Where was it said that he is from Anambra in the article?

Obioha is more likely to be from anyother Igbo speaking state than Anambra.

Anambra North and Central senatorial zones answer Obiora and not Obioha. Only parts of Anambra south close to Imo and Abia boundaries answer Obioha.

Moreover, this your hair splitting ish is not making sense. Must you toe Abagworo and Chino's line? Is it not bad enough that Ndiigbo have to deal with Chino and Abagworo endless mudslinging contest that keeps projecting every negative aspects of Imo and Anambra, an Enugu man like you would now join the ring.

Tekno and the rest of Igbo artists are probably one Nigeria apologists,

They should enjoy their Nigeria. Not my concern.

But there is no doubt that Tekno songs these years were the best in Nigeria. From Duro to Where to Pana. He had been on red hot form.

If he knows what's good for him, he should just ignore headies. Infact, make it a policy not to relate with them ever in his career, and focus on producing more hits next year.
If he can produce more hit songs like he did this year, next year, then he will likely clear the African awards.

Never allow people treat you less than you deserve, never.

Politics › Re: Buhari’s $500M Donation To Clinton Campaign May Damage Nigeria Relation With US by Igboid: 10:36am On Nov 11, 2016
[b] The money went straight into the Clinton Foundation, donor records show.

Procter & Gamble's Nigeria operation won a prestigious State Department award in 2011. The company donated between $1 million and $5 million to the Clinton Foundation.

Hillary Clinton personally presented the company with the award at a ceremony in Washington, D.C.

Nestle Nigeria, a food manufacturing company, also donated to the Clinton Foundation.

Hillary Clinton reportedly invited Buhari to meet with her in 2009, years before the Nigerian president assumed office.

Powerful oil corporations have played a role in shaping Nigeria's policy. Many of the energy conglomerates have also enjoyed close ties to the Clintons.

Royal Dutch Shell, a major oil company and Clinton Foundation donor, reportedly infiltrated the Nigerian government in its efforts to dominate the energy sector there.

Leaked diplomatic cables suggest State Department officials received intelligence updates from Shell executives in Nigeria and were concerned about the effects of the deteriorating security situation on the country's oil industry.

The Nigerian ambassador under Hillary Clinton met with executives from Shell and other corporations — including fellow foundation donors Chevron, Schlumberger and ExxonMobil — in 2009 and advised them on ways to lobby the Nigerian government in their favor.

One of the reasons Hillary Clinton's officials cited for refusing to label the group as terrorists was "the possibility that doing so might heighten threats against U.S. and Western interests," according to CNN. [/b]

The Clinton Foundation's acceptance of donations from Nigerian companies has raised red flags in the past.

For example, the First Bank of Nigeria, one of the country's largest financial institutions, gave as much as $25,000 to the Clinton Foundation.

The son of the former chairman of the First Bank of Nigeria was sentenced to life in prison after attempting to blow up a Detroit-bound passenger flight on Christmas Day 2009.

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, Alhaji Mutallab's son, was dubbed the "underwear bomber" after authorities discovered explosives hidden in his underwear.

Bill Clinton accepted between $500,000 and $1 million from a Nigerian newspaper publisher in 2012 to speak at an event in Lagos.
Politics › Re: Buhari’s $500M Donation To Clinton Campaign May Damage Nigeria Relation With US by Igboid: 10:34am On Nov 11, 2016
Clinton's ties to Gilbert Chagoury, a prominent Nigerian businessman and Clinton Foundation supporter, have prompted at least one member of Congress to question the motives behind her decision not to slap Boko Haram with a Foreign Terrorist Organization classification.

Sen. David Vitter, R-La., wrote a letter to Kerry in March asking the State Department to turn over emails in which Clinton discussed Boko Haram.

"[G]iven the drastic foothold Boko Haram was allowed to gain prior to being designated an FTO, the nexus between the Department's decision against designating Boko Haram as an FTO and connections to outside groups should be brought forward," Vitter wrote.

Vitter questioned whether the Clinton's relationship with Chagoury influenced her decision against labeling Boko Haram a terrorist group.

He noted Bill Clinton had participated in events with Chagoury while his wife was secretary of state, and that the Nigerian land developer had "previously agreed to a $66 million plea deal during international investigation into corruption charges against him."
Politics › Re: Buhari’s $500M Donation To Clinton Campaign May Damage Nigeria Relation With US by Igboid: 10:34am On Nov 11, 2016
Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari's visit to Washington, D.C., Monday to discuss the fight against Boko Haram has prompted critics to again question why Hillary Clinton refused to label the West African insurgents as terrorists during her State Department tenure.

Buhari and President Obama discussed U.S. support of Nigerian counterterrorism efforts, which was made possible by Secretary of State John Kerry's decision to place Boko Haram on the terrorist watch list in late 2013, just months after Clinton left office.

The State Department under Clinton resisted congressional calls to designate Boko Haram as a terrorist organization.

Robert Jackson, acting assistant secretary of state for African affairs, testified before Congress in May of last year that the agency could have acted sooner on Boko Haram.

Christianity Etc › Re: Trump Can't Bite- Nigerian Muslims React by Igboid(op): 10:20am On Nov 11, 2016
Somebody who is more patriotic lost to somebody who is not paying tax. It is a surprise win. It is disturbing, but I know Allah knows why he won. Almighty Allah gives and takes power. I want to see how he will chase out Muslims from his country. Mallam Haroon, Let’s see how event will unfold,” he said.

“Yes I may be nervous but Allah gives power and He takes it at will. My take on whatever Trump intends to do is in Quran 99: 7-8 “Then shall anyone who has done an atom’s weight of good, shall see it! And anyone who has done an atom’s weight of evil, shall see it.”

Another Muslim, Ustaz AbdulWaheed Olowo said: “Right now, I want to see how Trump will work his talk on Muslims. He will first have to flush out all American Muslims though a minority out of America. We will then see what the reaction of other world leaders when he bans other Muslims from all over the world from entering US. I want to believe it is just a mere political statement meant only to win votes, it is a difficult thing to do. Besides, no leader worth his position will do anything to provoke a war, hatred and anger of people. But if he does it, we will all see the end result. So, I think those campaign talks would not be translated into tough xenophobic policies.”

The Quran says: “Say: “O Allah! Lord of Power (And Rule), Thou givest power to whom Thou pleasest, and Thou strippest off power from whom Thou pleasest: Thou enduest with honour whom Thou pleasest, and Thou bringest low whom Thou pleasest: In Thy hand is all good. Verily, over all things Thou hast power..”

However, if this growing nervousness is based on the fact that tough anti-Islamic policies under Trump presidency could provoke more anger and breed violence, then global peace and world economic development is under threat if the US President elect make good his election promise.

Christianity Etc › Trump Can't Bite- Nigerian Muslims React by Igboid(op): 10:20am On Nov 11, 2016
•Allah gives and takes power

By Haroon Balogun

Early Wednesday when the news filtered in that 70-year-old Republican candidate, Donald Trump who made fiery anti-Islamic rhetoric a key part of his campaign has emerged the 45th American President elect, to succeed Mu-Barrak Obama, some Muslims across the country expressed shock, apprehensive of what would become the fate of their love ones, friends and relatives who are Muslims. But many others dismissed the fear saying Trump can’t carry out his threat adding that Trump’s bite was not a potent as his bark.

Opinion polls before Election day had given Clinton a slim lead, but the stunning result came in early Wednesday to give victory to Trump, thereby setting the stage for a drastic reordering of politics in United States.

With Trump as President of the world’s greatest power, many Muslims world-over are perturbed by his homophobic and xenophobic remarks during his campaign recently.

Last year December, Trump made a scathing remark about Islam, sparking anger among the world’s 1.5 billion followers of Islam when he called for a ban on Muslims entering the United States after a mass shooting in California, saying he would kick out Muslims from America.

About 30 percent of Nigerians in America are Muslims.

Some Muslims who spoke to Facing the Kaaba on Wednesday when Trump defeated Hillary Clinton said: “I can’t believe Americans would vote this man who was not paying tax and without remorse said he was smart for evading tax. I cant believe this! It’s shocking!,” said AbdulHameed Olawale, a Muslim and Lagos based IT expert. But I want to see how he will carry out his threat because America like any other great country is an institution. One man cannot dictate for the whole of America,” he stated.

Another Muslim cleric who does not want his name in print called Facing the Kaaba from Abuja saying: “It is horrifying. Somebody talking about World Peace lost the election to somebody talking about war with Muslims. Somebody who is peaceful and accommodating lost the election to somebody with xenophobic policy.

ShinnBet Argument is simple.

If you produce and flood the Nigerian market with 20 million 50kg bags of rice, the law of demand and supply demands that the current price of local rice and indirectly foreign rice fall.

But has this happened?
No.

I'm sure that even Buharists here know that this news is fake. They are just jumping up and down here for jumping sake.

I went to market on Monday. The price of rice has not changed.
