Manny21:
No be to create Anioma state Delta State go gree relinquish Asaba to Southeast?
Delta people are not happy to have their capital in Asaba. Their greatest wish is to kick out their Anioma counterparts. Nobody cares about it being South East or not. It's just politicians using invisible zone as delay tactics and distraction because the government is not ready for any state creation in the nearest future.

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.

Is that the only thing you saw there? What about the declaration?

Hence, we do not donate blood, nor do we store for transfusion our blood that should be 'poured out.' That practice conflicts with God's law."
Did the video say otherwise? Have they started doing blood donation, soliciting blood banks or accepting blood transfusion?
What are you really dragging or you just get turned on at the mention of some certain religion?

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.

With many of the therapy or surgical procedures may warrant blood leaving the body to be stored, filtered and reused within the Theatre.
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?
With many of the therapy or surgical procedures may warrant blood leaving the body to be stored, filtered and reused within the Theatre.

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.

Okada riders in different places like ohafia, omoku, okpala make close to that 30k in a day, what will make you think it's fallacy about Keke to make such?
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.

Yes, Keke operators can make such daily. That is not an assurance of smooth sailing income or return on investment.

*Use around half of that money to start a charging centre, barbing plus video game shop, lotto + POS, add showglass of snacks with coolers of iced drinks and water by the side

**Use around 800k - 1m from the money to deposit with a microfinance bank or cooperative, let them help you get a new Keke while you balance them as you ride.

AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AVOID FAIRLY USED ESPECIALLY IF YOU DON'T KNOW IT'S HISTORY OR YOU DON'T HAVE EXPERIENCE ABOUT KEKE!

IF YOU HAVE TO, MAKE SURE YOU DON'T SPEND OVER 1M ON THE FAIRLY USED AND INSPECT TO ENSURE THAT IT'S IN FIRST GRADE CONDITION. Keep the change for backup because fairly used na one week new trouble. But you can conquer with sense and discipline.

***Whether Shop or Keke, it will not stop you from the agent work instead it will increase your reach and credibility when people see you as owning another viable hustle not just hungry depender on commissions.

Which Is the better investment?

Plz share your opinions guys.
Buy the lands, plant long term cash crops like palm or cocoa trees OR short/medium term yield like plantain, fish farming etc.

BUT IF THE RUBBERS DEY, CONVERT ANY ANY, EITHER LAND OR HOUSE INTO SCHOOL, GUEST HOUSE, RELAXING SPOT(with small chops, tennis, snooker, betshop etc)

The point is say no to rent and tenant wahala. It doesn't yield. Unless you just want to fix the funds in a project for reference purposes.

SlavaUkraini:
Jonathan does not have the liver to contest the 2027 elections...

The only thing that will make him contest is if something happens to Jagaban.
He is wiser than all these online theatrics and poor attempt at emotional blackmail. He has no interest and absolutely no reason to contest again. He's already a president and will continue getting his allowance and privileges for life.

The last part of your comment however is the only fact, unless something happens to incumbent, there'll be no reason for anybody to consider Jonathan as candidate in 2027 because Jagaban would also have only 4 years left same as Jonathan.
I mean what will be the rationale? The north would rather have power return than electing a new southerner after all they're still being short changed. By 2027 will be 28 years out of which North has only 10 (Buhari 8 + Yar'Adua 2) while South has 18 (Obasanjo 8+ Jonathan 6+ Tinubu 4).
If our people were wise and not power drunk, Jagaban would have the opportunity to cement himself almost like Mandela status if he stepped down after one tenure. Hand over to a north east or North Central candidate with Igbo VP. APC would be hard to topple in the near future if they do this.
As for the opposition, 2027 is only possible if they can merge and make sure flag bearer is not Atiku. Atiku can only get in there if he struck a deal with the current government.

RomanceRe: How Can I Approach Dating With This Condition? by jmichael259(m): 3:34am On Nov 12, 2025
LINSAR:
I am a 24 year old man who has never dated before.
I noticed that my primary sexual characteristics, specifically my D, didn’t grow during puberty.

Early this year, I did hormone tests and they all came out normal. Though testosterone was low-normal(3.8 ng/mL in a range of 3 - 10).
I also did testicular ultrasound and the result was normal.

The doctor likened my situation to women’s breasts where some are small, average or big.
He said I just happened to have a small D probably due to genetics.

The problem is I see how women shame men with sizes even bigger than mine. I don’t have the courage to ask a girl out. The disappointment on her face when she finds out can depress me.
What can I do as I’ve been brooding over this issue for years now?
Measure it with ruler or something find out how many inches first. Truly there are D that are indeed small to the point it's not going to do anything but if you're within 4-6 inches then no wahala. It can be a small problem if it's less than 3inches.
This is the 21st century, just find electronic toys that are around your size to use and combine to service the lady. Learn pre-intimacy, massage, cuddling, hand job and many other healthy acts to handle the situation.
Incase in the rare case that it's actually too small, Do not hide this fact until after marriage! It'll never go well.
Your solution will be excellence in non penetration methods of lady's satisfaction, proper use of toys and making sure your financial status is strong.
