PoliticsRe: Kingsley Chinda emerges Rivers APC Governorship Candidiate by jmichael259(m): 6:42am On May 23
His senatorial zone/tribe fall hand. No strong political structure there? He can't fight alone forever. I wasn't expecting him to contest this election but power intoxicates. What he should have done is allowed independently strong presence from his place to contest instead. Rivers is becoming "Igbo" state if Wike is allowed to succeed through Chinda. That's one of the reasons Igbo people were supporting this guy against Wike. At least to allow other people enjoy their own turn. Igbos believe in rotation of power even within their own LGAs, States and constituencies. After Odili, Amaechi and Wike, it was long overdue for the non "Igbo" parts or Rivers State to rule at least 8yrs.
I quit on the so-called Niger Deltans. They're just all talk for FG security guard contracts. No substance.

Guys, I've recently bought this minibus to be shipped into Nigeria. What's the best way of making daily income on it. Any wisdom shared will be immensely appreciated.
Haulage o, strictly haulage (a.k.a charter)
For people needing to carry their properties during relocation
Avoid village market roads, heavy loads or burning engine continuously in the name of passenger transport.
This motor is good for the following businesses you can liaise with in your area or If you have money start your own.
*Logistics,
*Satchet water factory,
*Bakery,
*Event & rentals; the vehicle will carry the canopy, platforms, chairs, bread or water supply etc
* Get to the big shop traders and markets in your town and link this motor to people for carrying their light wholesale goods like plastic, biscuits, nylon, cartons of noodles, bags of stockfish etc

He has been in the senate before so returning as a ranking member makes him eligible and the senate presidency is currently zoned to South East or South South which is why Akpabio had the chance.

itel? I will never touch their product even with a 12 foot pole.
I am on the same position but I have happened to use their then S15 (sold it after a couple months because it wasn't the 4G version that I bought) and after some years I ventured again. I've been using their S24 since 2024 till date no issues. Both phones were flagship and I had no issues performance wise but I can't deny I've noticed improvements based on people who buy their midrange or entry level devices.

The point is they're no longer a company of useless phones or inferior gadgets. They even have a wonderful line of superb accessories like power banks, Bluetooth party speakers etc and their phones have become more functional and reliable in recent years but if you actually use your phone for things other than calls and social media then, Buy ONLY their flagship. S series (e.g. S26) or gaming phones like the RS4. Never ever buy a 2gb physical ram or an Android Go version device from them.

Urgent1Million:
You have asked a lot of questions.
But you've failed to ask the one question that'd render all your questions useless.
If everything and everyone must come from something, what did the something come from?
If you believe the maker existed out of nothing, could the acclaimed "made" have come out of nothing?
Why do you think there was a maker who came out of nothing but argue that the "made" couldn't have come out of nothing?
Is it because some book said so? A book that was written by the "made" who wasn't anywhere near the "maker" or the time of making?
The Bible doesn't focus on the origin of God but says God's exists or has existed from "ages to ages" meaning it was incomprehensible to humans at this point how old or how long God is or would exist.
e.g. there are organisms that their entire lifespan is in one day or some a week. How can they comprehend the life of a man or a turtle or a shark that lived for one or two centuries or even up to 400 years?
How do you think it'll be possible for micro animals like tardigrades to comprehend the existence or size of a man, elephant or whale?
God might as well be what we're living on or inside of just as there are animals living on our skin or inside our bodies.
Religious institutions might have caused much harm at some points but they don't define God or what a believe in God is.

EnemyofGod4:
A fool says in his heart there's God.

I will ask you one question and if you can answer me, I will answer all your useless questions.

Who created God ? I mean how did God came into existence ?

Where was God when he created heaven and earth ?
Tell me ,where is hellfire located ?
P.S. I'm not the person you were quoting not do I know what you are arguing about. Just a few quips.
Hellfire exists only in the doctrines of some religious denominations. It's a construct of some foreign powers and a corruption of the religion they claim to have fostered unto people. It doesn't exist in any of the religious books and I don't care to argue about it further.
The other questions might be answered when man reaches or surpasses the end of space. We as a species with all the intelligence and technology that are yet to comprehend the fringes at the bottom of a man's gown, can not therefore claim to be a know-it-all of the entirety of the being adorning that said gown.
At this point, all arguments about knowing God fully is akin to attempts to explain the colour yellow to a man born blind.
Meanwhile, the absence of (a comprehension of available) evidence is not the evidence of absence.

Kobicove:
Every human being was created with a conscience, an inate ability to know right from wrong.
EXACTLY
"You don't need to be religious to be a good person. You actually need to be a good person to be religious."
If you actually pay attention to the Bible instead of the worship centers or the religious rulers, you would have noticed that it says "God searches the heart" and God is looking for "honest hearted ones." So you need to be honest hearted first in order to draw close to God not going to worship places and making huge donations or participation in many activities thinking it would be recompense for your hidden sins against man and God.

It's normal to see police checkpoint in front of their station. I passed area P station on ipaja road and other police stations but no single road block. Infact I saw one of them using car they are using to smuggle to tow another of their car that developed fault on ipaja road. I fear who no fear the Nigeria police
Corruption aside, Smuggling is not a business to practise James Bond movies with. When they have clash with customs or military, it normally ends deadly. So, most times it's wiser to leave the road so you can go home to your families for another day especially when you consider how ill equipped and under motivated the police are. Moreover, if the higher powers have already been paid off and ordered you to move out, why will you put your life when nobody gat your back?

On Friday 27th of March. I left home to a attend a club/birthday in akowonjo. I saw lots of cars used by smugglers fully loaded with goods that day. It's strange I didn't see a single police checkpoint on my way around 10pm. Same thing going back home around 3AM. Those that know that ayobo/ipaja/idimu axis will understand why it's strange no single police checkpoint in the route I just mentioned.
The informant monitoring the police radio and gives them the clear to pass once the patrol teams have been called off the road.
They even go as far as starting a rumour or creating a panic situation or a diversionary crime like gunshots, carjacking somewhere else to get the patrol teams along their routes to leave and attend to that one.
In many cases they'll get willing participants and just pay off the hierarchy and the patrol teams get their shares and get called off the road for a certain amount of time like say 2hrs to make the passage possible. After all na money dem come extort for road in the first place.

Security is not magic. The underworld are adapting and outsmarting by the seconds. Arms and Drug trafficking are the deadliest and most profitable businesses around the globe.
Weapons are hidden inside chippings too. How will you be able to offload and search full MACK load of chippings? And how will you know the one containing contraband?Unless there's a direct tip off maybe from a spy within or something.
It's not easy to detect these kind things without a snitch or will you offload and search the fuel tank of all the thousands of vehicles on the road? Even entire humans are sealed inside tankers or motor furnishings and smuggled past American borders.

Christianity EtcRe: JW Adjustment On Blood Transfusion: Doctrinal Changes & Effects by jmichael259(m): 7:37am On Mar 25

Yes oo! The video says otherwise.

The 2000 publication you are quoting makes it very clear that, you guys should abstain from taking blood, whether you own the blood or not they don't care, as far as it's out of your body you can't take it in! Are you dyslexic? This same Watchtower quoted in the video? -Check picture for reference.

But, this video update said you can now take blood if you want to as long as you are the one who owns the blood no issue again!!! When was it ever an issue? Personal decision has always existed in their beliefs since 2000s, 90s, 80s, 70s as far back as I can remember.

So, as you can see, they are two different thing.. infact that's what English people call change grin I've asked you once did you think 2000 was the first time they discussed the issue or that they've not touched on that issue since 2000? Like your mind is telling you this video is a response or change to a year 2000 article? 🤦🏻‍♂️

I know you lack the capacity to comprehend all these though, it's not your fault.. Snide remarks. Typical garbage in garbage out response from a living thing that has no valuable input or output to offer. that's how the majority of you guys are.

The whole online fuss is that the same Watchtower who claimed to be the mouthpiece of Jehovah and being directed by Jehovah, Jesus & an active force. Said in year 2000 that STORING BLOOD is against GOD'S LAW but this month after PRAYER and scriptural consideration STORING BLOOD is now allowed.

If you can't see difference, then nobody can help you.
Do you mean this same October 15 2000 Watchtower that was highlighted in the video?

You bunch of religious extremists and jw-phobists just can't sit in Sokoto and expect to be telling those in Somalia about what is going on in Mogadishu.
The point I raised is that this announcement is a clarification or reaffirmation of something that has always stood in their beliefs which is that Your own blood and your own therapy = your own decisions.
Online bloggers were rabble rousing as if they have started accepting transfusion or something. Everything said in the video has always stood in-house even before the year 2000.

You people are just too funny.

The October 15 2000 article clearly rejected ANYTHING STORAGE but the recent announcement now ACCEPTED STORAGE. 2000-2026 is about three whole decades. Were you thinking the people had been moribund since then? This topic has been handled severally within that period including mentions of the various procedures and therapy that involve blood may leave a patient's body, stored, filtered and be reinserted during the procedure.

You can keep twisting but one thing is sure, this announcement has even created more confusion than before. You're the only one confusing yourself.
The question remains, what's the whole online fuss about? I mean this because I legit thought I missed something. Maybe they have started doing blood banking or accepting blood donations etc not nairaland loafers trying to argue semantics that weren't commentated upon.

The grey area in this part you keep pasting is the word storage possibly in blood banks for a longer term. That was not mentioned in this announcement. Inadvertently nothing has changed. Ultimately it's still a personal decision. So, no new policy here. End of quotes.

Check the below October 15, 2000 Watchtower and see if there's any clarification or not.

As you can see, the October 15 responded to a reader's question which actually rejected someone STORING THEIR OWN BLOOD as it is against GOD'S LAW.

Now, answer this question.

Are you saying both Watchtower October 15 2000 and the recent announcement are saying the same thing?

I don't think you have even read or watched the announcement at all!

Omo I don tire for una oo!

Bellow is the message from your governing body themselves, now read and tell me how is it still prohibited?




For that reason, many Christians accept simple procedures, such as blood tests, as well as more complicated procedures involving their own blood, such as the use of heart-lung machines, cell-salvage devices, and kidney dialysis treatments. However, the list of treatment options continues to grow.



Therefore, after much prayer and consideration of the Scriptures, the Governing Body has decided to clarify our position on the use of a patient’s own blood in medical and surgical care. The clarification is this: Each Christian must decide for himself how his own blood will be used in all medical and surgical care. This includes whether to allow his own blood to be removed, stored, and then given back to him.



What does this mean? Some Christians may decide that they would allow their blood to be stored and then be given back to them. Others may object. Each Christian must make his personal decision on all matters involving the use of his own blood with regard to medical or surgical care.



In review, Christians are not under the Mosaic Law. However, we obey the apostolic command to abstain from blood. Furthermore, the Bible does not comment on the use of a person’s own blood in medical and surgical care. Therefore, like other choices about health care, each Christian must make his own decision about the use of his own blood in all medical and surgical care.
Like I said, this announcement is a clarification and this is stated multiple times in the video. This might have been necessitated due to the increasing medical options that involves one's own blood or maybe some people were beginning to try to dictate for others what to do with their own blood.
As you can see among the screenshots from the video, as far back as TWENTY SIX YEARS AGO, the October 15 2000 Watchtower article already stated what was repeated, elaborated or clarified in this video. "Each person will decide what to do with their own blood" -this is not a new policy!
SO, PLEASE TELL ME. WHAT HAS CHANGED? Have they started accepting blood bank and blood donation?

Christianity EtcRe: JW Adjustment On Blood Transfusion: Doctrinal Changes & Effects by jmichael259(m): 2:22pm On Mar 23
kinsnazzy:
When a medical article or doctor says “other procedures involve the use of a person’s own blood,” it usually means:

The doctor uses your own blood during the surgery itself, not blood stored from someone else.

This does not automatically mean storing blood far in advance.

Does it mean storing your blood ahead of time?

Sometimes yes — but not always.

There are two different things, so it’s good to separate them:

1. Note this this is wrong : Not stored in advance (most common)

But this this is right :
Your own blood is collected during the surgery, cleaned, and returned to you at the same time.

Examples:

Cell salvage (cell saver) — blood lost during an operation is collected, filtered, and given back to you immediately.

Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) — just before surgery begins, a small amount of your blood is temporarily removed, kept beside you in the operating room, then re-infused during the operation.

Note: This blood is not “stored” in a blood bank.
It stays with you during the whole process.

Jehovah’s Witnesses often consider these acceptable if the blood is kept in immediate connection with the body **(but each person chooses individually)**.

2. Stored ahead of time (pre-operative autologous donation)
Here, a person gives their own blood days or weeks before surgery. It is stored in a blood bank and then used during the operation.

This is long-term storage.
Jehovah’s Witnesses do not accept this, because once the blood is stored separately, outside the body, they view it as no longer part of the person.
👆👆👆
Storage in blood bank and Transfusion still remains prohibited. So what changed?

Filtration, cell salvage and almost everything mentioned here is something that has always been based on personal decision.
As I said, this announcement sounds more like an elaboration of things already standing so that more people will become aware of their options. No shift in their transfusion policy. Not even an inch.
Eldeedon:
What hasn't change? Have you been storing your blood and reusing it before??!!

Seriously I don't! Is it that you guys just don't want to see or what? Someone even just post your article from 2000 above and you are still saying this
Christianity EtcRe: JW Adjustment On Blood Transfusion: Doctrinal Changes & Effects by jmichael259(m): 2:08pm On Mar 23
NOTHING HAS CHANGED.
I DON'T GET WHAT ALL THESE ONLINE BLOGGERS ARE FUSSING ABOUT?🤷🏻‍♂️
Storage and Transfusion are still prohibited. I've read about this CELL SALVAGE AND BYPASS MACHINE stuff SOMETIMES IN THE 2000s.
Maybe this recent announcement is for emphasis or elaboration.

I have been a transporter and I can tell you there are very few jobs that can have as much cash flow. I called it cash flow instead of income because a lot of things distract the person from arranging and growing the money. As soon as work goes well, police or agbero wahala go occur. If he manage close work, the operator drops food money for house without budgeting, impulsively buys tyre or whatever parts or decoration he's been wanting to buy, has to pay for his weekly lease, patronises food vendors, bars and joints with a big heart and carries a fat wallet to follow n¥a$h.
Starts the next morning with barely enough money to buy fuel.
A transporter doesn't need to make you think highly of him. The truth is he's miles above you, only and only if he can be disciplined in his dealings.
