Islam for Muslims / Re: The Truth About Sharia Law by Jairzinho(m): 2:33pm On Feb 07, 2010 |
Lagosboy:Lagosbobo,long time. . . this is actually part of my grouse with 'Sharia' law. How can you determine what constitutes a thief? Is it an armed robber,a pick pocket or Alhaji governor stealing his state blind? Law is much more complex than this. I live in an ARAB MUSLIM country governed by Sharia & people are sent to jail for stealing. . . not amputated ! Nigerians with our OVERZEALOUSNESS.even Islamic Republic of Pakistan does not amputate pick pockets. We need to think all these things through. . . .just like you read the Qu'ran IN CONTEXT,all these archaic punishments should be READ IN CONTEXT as well. |

Sports / CAF Bans and Fines Togo by Jairzinho(m): 3:12pm On Jan 30, 2010 |
I was shocked to read this from the CAF website. I think its unjust considering what the Togo team has been through & I think we should all bombard CAF & the NFA to express our disgust at this decision. E-mail - info@cafonline.com

Any idea the line-up for today's game? |
Islam for Muslims / Re: Y Do Wahhabi Muslims View Shia Muslims And Other Muslims As Being False by Jairzinho(m): 9:21am On Jan 24, 2010 |
muhsin:,well now you know belief is all about perception hahahaha ! Your comments are too dismissive,what if Im trying to learn more about Islam with a view to taking a decision? You should address issues not personalities my friend (Imagine your comments "this is an insider issue ,while you an outsider " ). . . knowledge is the foundation of Islam . . .not grandstanding |
Islam for Muslims / Re: Y Do Wahhabi Muslims View Shia Muslims And Other Muslims As Being False by Jairzinho(m): 5:37am On Jan 23, 2010 |
muhsin:i live with them my friend. . . & I have found out many assumption are just that assumptions. . .add that to the fact that we all have things we do not completely understand/agree with our faith. So i say focus on the fundamentals. We have something similar in christianity. Non-catholics(like me) have been brought up believing catholics worship Mary (mother of Jesus) and regard her more than Jesus Himself. In addition they have some traditions which aren't directly written in the Bible. So if you ask a typical non-catholic,he'll tell you catholics aren't 'Christians'. I later found this to be false,because. . . people are born into certain beliefs and as they grow older they adopt some & leave some,so putting a blanket on everyone is wrong and presumptuous. Shias are muslims only differ with Sunni on some aspects of theology/history of Islam ,but the fundamentals are the same. |

Sports / Re: Nigeria Vs Mozambique African Nations Cup 3-0 by Jairzinho(m): 1:00pm On Jan 21, 2010 |
I think Etuhu is lacking confidence,making tackles isn't the only thing. . . he needs to move with the ball & show some confidence,he's playing like he doesn't want to make a mistake. And for his height ,he needs to make his presence felt for corner kicks etc. We conceeded 3 against Egypt with 3 defensive midfielders,so much for his 'tackles'. Yakubu should retire from Int'l football after this tournament. Nsofor+Martins+Odems the superstar should start next game. |
Sports / Re: Yakubu Has An Overbloated Opinion Of Himself by Jairzinho(m): 12:56pm On Jan 21, 2010 |
Yakubu should be 'rested' for the remaining games of the tournament |
Politics / Re: Nigeria Donates $1m To Haiti As Fresh Quake Hits by Jairzinho(m): 12:53pm On Jan 21, 2010 |
Sam Milla:With all due respect,this is somewhat illogical,and is the main problem with nigeria. The federal govt of Nigeria is currently filled with rent seekers and bootlickers ,who are so far removed from the problems in states,talkless of local govts & wards,that it would be irresponsible for any forward looking leader to look up to these indisciplined bunch. The main reason we don't have light & security in the states is becos of the FG,they insist that any power generated by the states should first be given to the national grid & the it would be 'redistributed',policing should be controlled from Abuja,same thing with resource control and other things. Japan & other responsible countries that operate federal system ,have people with clear foresight and genuine concern for people runniing their government. So rather than the states asking the FG for direction,the FG would have taken initiative immediately and everyone would tow the line. The clintonbush initiative by Obama is a clear illustration of this. So please when doing a critical analysis of Federal system of govt,always take into coignisance the aberrant nature of Nigeria's example. |

Lagosboy:You are 3much. This is very well said & its the summary of my position on religion & faith. olabowale:The existence of hell/heaven is given based on almost all faiths. My point is summarised by Lagosboy above. . . .you olabowale CANNOT ,I repeat CANNOT determine who goes to hellfire ,or who doesn't,so stick to propagating your faith & leave punishment/repercussions for unbelief to God Almighty. |

Politics / Re: Donald Duke Blames Jonathan For Weakness! by Jairzinho(m): 1:35pm On Jan 13, 2010 |
debosky: debosky:That’s good, what was the gist of this address as I wasn’t aware of this before now. debosky:I'm wasn’t referring to Adeniyi , this is where 'the spirit' of a law comes in. . . tho' hinged ultimately on judicial interpretation, the law never meant there to be a vacuum, possibly the assumption was we would have sincere people at the helm. debosky: That’s precisely the point I'm making. If you get 3 lawyers in here , you may get 3 different interpretations of the law. So for Jonathan & his PDP ilk to take the convenient road shows lack of genuine sincererity. I ask again, if we were to be attacked by another country in the present circumstances, what would happen?? Who will give the military the go –ahead? To further buttress my point of a conspiracy; did you hear what the NASS did when they 'discussed' the issue? debosky: But at the time there was a rational legal interpretation, and you can never know what would have happened if those rulings were appealed. The official religion in Zamfara and other northern states is islam, forget all the sound bites. Everything is censored according to Sharia & you have Islamic police –Hisbah, enforcing Islamic law. Criminal prosecution falls within the purview of States, now when someone’s hand is CUT OFF for stealing a cow, which breaks every law of the constitution on humane treatment of convicts? Is the individual who’s arm is cut off NOT a Nigerian? Does his religion overturn his rights as enshrined in the constitution we have all being touting ? Take it from me, the official religion is Islam in those states. No one is asking anyone to BREAK the law ,like I said before, on almost all issues, there’s usually more than one point of view on the law, so the interpretations you’re alluding to, while it may serve the current interests of the oligarchy, may not necessarily be the correct one. I’m happy some people have gone to court on this , but my point is he needs to act on what is right & not what is expedient. |

Beaf:Although my comments you’re responding to was initially directed at someone(debosky) else and my initial reaction was to tell you ‘mind your damn business’. . .however I will take the high road and address your points below but note civility in arguments is paramount for intelligent people. Never be tempted to descend to the brit-bat, tit for tat insults, common on NL, we can disagree on BIG issues, but not descend to such inglorious depths, ok? Beaf:Nobody’s battling anything. The letter of the constitution is very clear,BUT THE SPIRIT of the law (get a lawyer to interprete this for you) is what is in question here. No matter how imperfect the constitution is, the framers never intended for the country to be left directionless,as we are at the moment. So my point is this stalemate is only a conspiratory political solution. Don’t blame the game. . . blame the players. AND POINT OF CORRECTION,THE 1999 CONSTITTION WAS DRAFTED under the auspices of GEN ABDULSALAMI ABUBAKAR(not IBB & Abacha). Beaf:Mr Beaf, please stop all these ‘you’re short-sighted’ nonsense, don’t get personal. I can respond, but I’ll hold back for now. , I assume you’re matured enough to take correction. Beaf:IT’S HIS OFFICE WE’RE TALKING ABOUT MY FRIEND. . . .not him. . .seperate the 2. The VP has no executive power when the president is in situ, but once he’s incapacitated in any for. . . VP is default. Beaf:Last warning . . . . .respond to facts . . . don’t personal. Pick holes in my point of view don’t insult me. Beaf:Largely incoherent. . . . care to clarify? I didn’t ask debo to go to Wiki to explain ‘the law is an A.S.S. ASK A LAWYER !!! |

debosky: There is hierarchy in govt, so ANYONE cannot chair meetings, understand your statutes my friend. Even in a family meeting , ANYONE cannot lead a meeting. debosky: By taking decisive action where he needs to & stop giving excuses. Who are the ministers reporting to at the moment?? Who is setting direction for government? He should address the nation & stop all this timid actions. Now the special assistant to the president even talks to the press on behalf of govt. The AG is saying the president can run the country from Saudi?? All these is a manifestation of lack of direction/leadership. The fact that they can’t even say the VP is in charge is deeply troubling . Once the president is absent, the default is the VP. . . . . no long thing ! debosky: You are obviously deficient in your understanding of the law. The Nigerian Constitution Section 10 states ‘ The Government of the Federation or of a State shall not adopt any religion as State Religion.’ Don’t we have Islamic states in Nigeria? You people just say things you do not know – THE LAW IS AN A.S.S, ask your lawyer friends to explain what that means. A governor (plateau) was impeached by 6 house of assembly members looking at the same constitution, Ladoja was impeached from a hotel room, all these were enforced by police. OBJ declared state of emergency in a state, removed the governor & appointed an administrator, before notifying the NASS ,is that constitutional??. Is the ‘Oath Act’ part of the Nigerian 1999 constitution? Up until recently the police were using a public order act passed by the military to prevent public gathering. So what am I saying OPEN YOUR EYES AND MIND & stop letting PDP deceive you. People hide behind the constitution when it suits them & bring up one stale statute when it doesn’t. From the civil service statutes, Yar’adua’s 6 weeks absence should trigger a medical enquiry immediately, but has that been done. So accept what you have here is a convenient political stalemate engineered by the ‘northern cabal’ & stop quoting law ! |
