@OP...can you just educate people without adding insult? All I see is arrogance and colonial mentality, how many citizens of this developed countries give a damn about Africa not to talk of finding time to know that Africa is a continent and not just a country? Please emancipate yourself from mental slavery.. That people make such mistake does not mean they are dumb. |
In Fela's voice "tell me wetin unite for united nation" They don't care about Africa |
seanwilliam:They won't learn and will keep misbehaving until fans start unfollowing them on their social media handles |
farem:Never mind the OP...he must be one if those religion fanatics trying so hard to sow the seed of discord within Yoruba enclave...the moment you hear people proclaiming religion above their tribe, just know that it is either they have been brainwashed or can't think for themselves...I don't know their problem, Yoruba is one of the tribes that tolerate diversity in religion the most in this country, hardly will you see a family that doesn't have people practicing different religion and they get along, also, don't forget that despite the charade of holy holy, they still tend to be fetish. In summary...this type of post is not needed in Yoruba land. |
Kwili:No mind those mofos...na oversabi and eye service go kill some selfish and good for nothing Yoruba people |
Igbochief001:That's also true |
Igbochief001:Don't forget that they already have zombies in droves, those who are ready to die, just tell them some people just abuse Mohammed..without asking, they are at your door...they are deliberately doing that for a reason as highlighted in the post |
Nice submission with hidden truth laid in the bare....Yoruba's are the ones giving room for all this, they've not separated they are already pointing to some people coming from elsewhere...we have so many traitors and betrayers amidst us that van sell their birthright for a morsel of food. When some stupid people will tell you they recognised their religion before their tribe. Those calling for the unity of the south are just wasting their time, let each fight for his/her own right. |
Ifelander1:They are doing it from all we can see, buy just on t working for them...take the trade war between US and China for example |
Congratulations to her...another one gone...all this feats has never translated positively for Nigeria, when many brainy professionals who chose to stay behind are being chased away by insensitive and myopic leaders through unfavorable and corrupted policies. Sometimes, you just have to hate this country. |
I saw this answer on quora and I believe its worth sharing Question: Why is the West interested in when Paul Kagame is leaving office rather than focusing what he has been doing throughout his presidential term for the Rwandan people? Answer: Other answers have already covered it. It’s very ironic that they complain about foreign interference in their national affairs, but they go back and do the same thing to developing nations, across Africa. In Rwanda, the West has been pushing their agenda against President Paul Kagame, calling him, all sorts of names, and publishing propaganda in their media. However, Paul Kagame has continued to stand strong. He had kept to deliver to the people of Rwanda. He is supported by his people. He has so much support from the Rwandan people and they are the ones who will determine his fate. For Rwandans, there are still more work to do and Kagame delivers the results. Follow Basically, there are some powers who feel they are entitled to how developing countries in Africa should be governed. In their infinite “wisdom”, they want to dictate how Rwanda should be governed. The irony is that this is a country, which they ignored when they need the most help, many years ago. Now, the people of Rwanda, led by Paul Kagame, have managed to work together to rebuild their nation, some Western powers wants to disturb their well-being, peace and security. Throughout the past 25 years, Rwandan people have had to make decisions that surprised the West. Rwanda ignored most of their suggestions and went on with their own homegrown solutions. Despite all the challenges, Rwandans have kept pushing through and have ignored the noise from the outside. Against all odds, Rwanda is here to stay. President Paul Kagame is focused on building Rwanda and will continue to work for his people. As far as we are concerned, majority of Rwandans love and are enjoying the fruits of his leadership and governance system. If you really want to know about Paul Kagame, ask Rwandans. My own question now is, when are we going to have a leader in Nigeria who we citizens can defend like this without prejudice? https://www.quora.com/Why-is-the-West-interested-in-when-Paul-Kagame-is-leaving-office-rather-than-focusing-what-he-has-been-doing-throughout-his-presidential-term-for-the-Rwandan-people |
ISLAMBAD:There will always be pro agitators, neutral and those who are blatantly against the struggle in any climes Not every British welcomes the idea of brexit, so is Catalonia etc. So long the majority can be carried along...Muric is a minor |
SUFFERInSMILIIN:I disagree on your submission, what you just highlighted above affects an average African and blacks as a whole. Aside the the negative side, an average Nigerian will compete slug it out with you on chosen and a neutral level. |
Coldie:The kind of truth Nigerians will not want to hear...they will shout we are Nigerians when it is convenient, are we the only one migrating to other places in drove? Even war torn countries are not being disrespected as us...you will go to another mans territory and start dictating to the them how to live their lives. How I wish we can start looking our own leaders in the eye instead of blaming working countries for our misfortunes |
aremuforlife:You can as well defend the allegations with you own evidence... This is one of the reasons yorubas has been getting it wrong...Tinubu may be good at being a strategist but when it comes to integrity as the write up proclaims, I don't think he has any left... One of the good attributes of a good leader is to know when to retreat..the handwriting is all over yorubaland, which is...Nigeria as an entity is simply not working out. |
TheAviator2000:Weigh your options man, if she can't be open on that small issue, how are you so sure that after you marry her, she won't send that your lovely family away from your surrounding.. Or maybe she was instrumental in your travelling abroad and you are not telling us? Have you tried deliberately delaying that stipend for you to get her reaction, As long as money is involved and flowing unhindered, you may never know her true colours Its even obvious she is not ready to be united with you, how can someone hoping to marry refuse to take opportunity to be with the spouse...e get as e be ooo |
dingbang:you've said it all... Most are too lousy and Nigerians are too hypothetical in nature, you go to another mans land, break their laws and still flaunt it in their face, even powerful passport holders still behave themselves when in another mans country despite knowing the respect their passport carries not to talk of battered Nigerian image. They will be first to cry when such is being done to them in their own country. Its just painful that many don't know that Nigerians are the one closing doors of opportunities on themselves... Even within Nigeria...its a shame. |
Dtruthspeaker:The OP is just trying to be mischievous... Upon all he has highlighted, how many Christian do we have going about killing in the name of Jesus or shouting they are killing in the name of Christian God? He might want to argue that centuries ago, some people were guilty of such, but not anymore and if any, they are fraud. Bible is not a story book that can just be picked up and interpreted anyhow as we have in Acts chapter 8 vs 30-31 You need divine understanding to be able to comprehend, more reason the bible advice for one to seek understanding and be weary of wolves in sheep's clothing. In summary, pray for divine guidance if you truly wants to understand the bible |
A conman who chaired two NHS trusts after lying about having a PHD has been allowed to keep his £1million of ill-gotten gains after a judge ruled he gave 'full value' for his salary. Jon Andrewes told 'staggering lies' about his academic qualifications and experience to win a string of high-flying posts, the Court of Appeal in London heard. His dishonesty got him a £75,000 a year job as chief executive of the St Margaret's Hospice, a charity based in Taunton, where he worked for over a decade. And he went on to be appointed chairman of the Torbay NHS Care Trust and the Royal Cornwall NHS Hospital Trust. Andrewes, 65, from Totnes, lived a lie for years until the truth finally emerged in 2015 and he was sacked and prosecuted. He later pleaded guilty to two counts of fraud and one of obtaining a pecuniary advantage by deception and was jailed for two years. The judge who locked him up said he had lived an 'outwardly prestigious' lifestyle purely on the basis of his 'staggering lies'. Andrewes' disgrace was complete in July 2018 when a judge ruled that all the money he earned from his deception amounted to proceeds of crime. After tax, he was found to have benefitted from crime to the tune of over £640,000 but, by then, most of the money had been spent. Andrewes had every penny he had left - more than £96,000 - confiscated under the Proceeds of Crime Act. But, overturning the bill, Appeal Court judges said he had in effect been punished twice for the same crimes. Lord Justice Davis ruled that, having 'properly performed his duties' for 10 years, he had given 'full value' for the salary and benefits he received. When applying for the hospice job in 2004, Andrewes claimed to have joint honours and master of philosophy degrees from Bristol University. He said he had an MBA from Edinburgh University, a PhD from Plymouth University and an advanced diploma in accounting.

When applying for the hospice job in 2004, Andrewes claimed to have joint honours and master of philosophy degrees from Bristol University. He said he had an MBA from Edinburgh University, a PhD from Plymouth University and an advanced diploma in accounting. But Lord Justice Davis, who was sitting with Mrs Justice Andrews and Judge Richard Marks QC, said: 'None of this was true.' Giving details of his experience, Andrewes said he had been seconded to the Home Office and worked as CEO and MD of two charities. But the judge added: 'The actuality was very different'. He was a social worker for 20 years and, although he held a senior post with a charity for a year, the dates did not match his CV. There was no record of him every having worked for the other charity, let alone becoming its MD. After two years in the hospice job, Andrewes demanded that staff address him as 'Dr Andrewes'. Using that title and repeating his lies, he applied for paid positions with the two NHS trusts, rising to chair of both of them. Crown lawyers argued that every penny he made over the 10-year period, net of tax, 'represented the proceeds of criminality'. But for his serial dishonesty he would never have obtained any of the high-flying posts, said barrister, Martin Evans QC. Upholding Andrewes' appeal, however, Lord Justice Davis said he was not alleged to have led 'a criminal lifestyle'. He added: 'It is essential to bear in mind the fundamental point that a confiscation order is not designed to be a punishment.' Even if he still had the money, it would make 'no sense' to strip Andrewes' of all his earnings over the 10-year period as if he had not done a stroke of work. The thought that a shelf-stacker who lied on his CV about his criminal record might have to pay back his entire earnings was 'unappealing'. The judge ruled: 'Andrewes is to be taken as having over the years given full value, in terms of the services he provided, to the hospice and trusts in return for the remuneration which he obtained. 'Throughout, as is to be taken, he properly performed his duties...whilst he had obtained the positions dishonestly, they were positions which he was otherwise lawfully entitled to hold.' Through his work, he had already made 'full restoration' of the money he received and to also hit him with a confiscation order 'would involve a double penalty,' the judge concluded. Giving guidance for the future, Lord Justice Davis said prosecutors 'may need to reflect long and hard' before seeking confiscation orders against those who get jobs by lying on their CVs. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8611621/amp/Conman-earned-1million-running-two-NHS-ill-gotten-gains.html?__twitter_impression=true |
You are right in your judgement though...but don't forget that we experience different trials of life and go through it differently, also what people experience at a particular point in time usually forms the basis of their gratitude to God, what some people are fasting and praying for, for years, is what some people are taking for granted, for example child bearing, so the song about Mercy is not absolutely wrong, it all depends on the angle you are looking at it from. And after asking for mercy from God and it gets granted, is it now wrong to thank that God for showing mercy? |
This story get as e be...why is opposition in the state not capitalising on this news, and even the disgruntled apc members. |
The Lagos State House of Assembly has called on governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu to direct the commissioner for Tourism, Arts and Culture to liaise with the attorney-general/commissioner for Justice, Mr. Moyosore Onibganjo to look at the listed sites on Prevention Law, 2015 with a view to removing all vestiges of slave trade and colonialism superiority. Speaker of the House, Mudashiru Obasa, also directed its clerk, Azeez Sani, to address a letter to President Muhammadu Buhari , seeking an Executive Order that all streets named after colonial masters should be changed. He stated that the intention of the motion was not about history, adding that history could not be changed. According to Obasa, the kind of treatments meted on George Floyd in the United States must be stopped and that we should support those who protest against such an act. He also said names of some of some buildings and streets renamed after colonial masters should be changed because, “it reminds us of these people that enslaved our people.” The speaker further asked why the discovery of River Niger was being ascribed to foreigners, adding that the name Nigeria was said to have been given by the colonial masters. “The motion is about us, about Africans. We have to tell the world about our own civilisation. The resolve is not broad enough. It is not about Lagos State alone. We have to tell African Union about reparation started by the late Chief M.K.O Abiola” he declared In his submission, Hon. Gbolahan Yishawu representing Eti-Osa Constituency 2, who supported the motion said that history that makes the black to feel inferior should be changed. “This is a right step in the right direction and we need to change our psyche and history that will not make us feel as human beings. We need to change the narrative that connotes superiority in our history. I want my colleagues to support the motion,” he said https://leadership.ng/2020/07/01/lagos-assembly-wants-sites-monuments-named-after-colonial-masters-renamed/ |

GenBuhari:I concur with you.Glo has been raping Nigerians and Nigerian government for long, hiding under the guise of indigenous company, more reason why government has been handicapped... Are you aware that in the absence on Nitel, local calls were terminating on GLO? Sometime ago, remember that Mtn and Airtel were at GLO's throat over unpaid bills...GLO should have done more than they are currently doing, instead of fixing network issues, they will rather use the money to sign brand ambassadors. |
