They must say something to discredit the government.


If the previous governments had been doing projects to score political point, we would’ve improved by now.

Asking for a friend

Stop him from watching cartoon during the week. If possible tv generally.

Let him play phone games on weekends

Then he should go to bed very early

Finally he should be reading words on tv anytime he’s allowed to watch tv. It will build his attention to things.

Awol1:
If I'm from Ekiti, and my aunt marries an Igbo man from Abia, I guess her children will not be my cousins because we are indigenes of different states?

I ask again, is stupidity, daftness and crass stupidity, the prerequisite into BMC?

If one calls you people a fool you think it’s an insult but it’s a statement of fact.

So a random look alike of the president who was picked to replace a supposedly dead president now “by chance” have a relative who works in INEC nigeria and also by chance was appointed to head the committee in charge of the collation CENTRE.

Look around you, are you sure your brain has not being sucked overnight, you may still find the wall gecko that sucked it.

DonFreshmoney:
This Amina Zakari thinks we all fools.

Buhari already admitted relationship with her, who does she think she is? Why is she taking Nigerians for a ride?

She doesn’t have to think, the whole world knows you’re FOOLS.

A set of people that can believe a Jubril from Sudan is ruling us and is related to a certain Amina from jigawa are not only foolish but Mentally unstable.

It’s impossible to defend “lifting 80million out of poverty”.


She’s seen how the guy dismantled the PDP spokesman. She won’t want to destroy her international career knowing fully that she can’t get up to 5k votes.

Na real wa


Let’s wait for another version

gabazin080:
I have heard people saying one has to love his kids equally or don't show it even if you love one more, but I find it hard to pretend .

I have 3 kids, a boy and twin girls. I love the 1st born more than the rest because he is a boy and love one of the twins more than the other.
I place the male as the number in the home even ahead of the mom. he is very smart for his age and resembles me 100 percent. and for the twins, I love the one that looks like my late mom and very smart than the other.


help I find it hard to love them equally or even pretend to love them equally and it's causing division in my home

Bro don’t sweat it. It’s normal. You can’t love your kids same way but for your own sake never let it show.


Not showing it is the most important. Make sure no one can notice it that’s why you’re the father.

I don’t know how militancy suddenly disappeared under this government.


However that came by, it is highly commendable.

Who give an belle

Omooba77:
You have been trainned to twist things
Please, tell me what is working sir, GEJ is blamed for mr failure not appointing cabinets

See who’s accusing someone of twisting things.

We started from statistics of corruption

You twisted it into GEJ

Now it’s that I should tell you what is working. So who’s twisting things? Hypocrisy is accusing someone of doing the same thing you yourself is doing.

But if you want to go there then let’s go.

So tell me what was working before that is not working now?

Present them with facts.

For every one you present with facts I will present two that was not working before but is working now with facts.

Omooba77:
How much has NNPC remited to TSA which was initiative of GEJ, likewise BVN.
Babachir still going and coming out of Aso rock, Ikoyi-Gate is still unresolved.

Another of the wailer who turn exchanges into an interrogation.

If you don’t know how NNPC accounts work and how TSA operates I’m not the one to educate you.

GEJ initiative. LOL Bros I have tones of initiatives on how to stop corruption I just don’t have the platform. Your GEJ had the platform but couldn’t implement it.

Moral of the tale: Any idiot can have an idea it take a real man to implement it.

So because Babachir and Ikoyi-Gate gate is still unsolved mean corruption is still very much.

It is people like you that say nothing is working simply because government has not put money in your pocket.

I regret wasting me time replying more so while I’m watching two important football matches.

Omooba77:
In reality has corruption decrease sir?

Bros


Please bare with me but i will like to answer your question with question.

Can you kindly do a mental calculation of effect of the following programs on corruption (embezzlement of public fund) by public servants.

Treasury Single Account (TSA)

BVN

In the analysis of those two lies the answer you seek

Except we want to lie to ourselves, corruption has been forced down by the system but the mentality still thrives in the mind of Nigerians.


The first step of reducing corruption is taking away the yam from the goat. TSA has done part a great deal in dealing with that at the national level.

Another step is ability to trace where the goat is hiding the yams. The BVN has done a lot on that.

Even the senators acknowledges lack of Ghana-must-go bags for passage of bills and budget as against the N12billion paid by Okonjo iweala.

There’s still a very long way to go.

Like Femi falana said, there’s no state government fighting corruption. FG cannot fight corruption at the state level. It can only do so at the federal level.


You will agree with me that changing the mindset of people and eliminating corruption is not a decades job let alone a 4years job.

Omooba77:
Hmmmm. Those who are shouting corrouption against others are more corrupted than corruption itself.

Nigeria is so failed that ordinary report people cannot digest or analyse.

Increasing Reportage of corruption doesn’t mean corruption is on the rise it only means people are aware that the fight is real and they are ready to report it.

It’s only when it is reported that it is recorded. It was not reported in the past because people saw it as a fruitless effort.

HigherEd:
Well Nigeria is a secular country and evangelization is not a crime. If the parents of the Almajiri kids consent to their kids being schooled by a Christian mission then to hell with muric.

What Kukah is proposing is pure invitation to anarchy.


How does he plan to get permission from the parents of ten million children?

If he doesn’t get their consent how do you think their parents will respond when they get to know that their children are being (brainwashed into christiandom) trained by a Christian bishop instead of the Islamic education they are being sent to get?

Are there no poor people in Christianity that all he thinks is almajiris?

Why does he want to train them when they’re already getting an education? Or Is the Islamic education they’re getting not an education?

Akintola is right. Kukah’s proposal raises more questions than answer.

All what the almajiri system needs is finance not training from a bishop.



The final question is


WHAT WILL CHRISTIAN PARENTS SAY IF AN IMAM OR A SHEIKH SAYS HE WANTS TO TRAIN CHRISTIAN CHILDREN?

If there’s a team that should never be written off, it’s a team coached by Guardiola.

This is why he was schemed out

WisePer:
I refrain from engaging in tribal bickering as we have this bad leadership for decades as a common mess confronting us.

When people talk of SE block vote being the smallest in the 6 Geo-political zones, the same people forget that Ibos are a substantial amount in those other regions with higher block vote.

I have lived in many states in Nigeria and can confirm that after the indigenous tribe/owners of the land , the next tribe that comes close to Majority is the Ibos. Take this sample from Bonny, Oshogbo, Idah, Sokoto, Mubi , Ife, Auchi,Yobe, Abeokuta , etc and the statistics remains the same.

A sincere census if carried out with tribe as a component will reveal the true Ibo population and dispel erroneous impression showcased in various media.

On the topic, I do not think Nigerians are interested in where the President comes from, what we need is purposeful and sincere leadership.

What you forget is that them being scattered makes the votes of their host states to overshadow their own votes. Example. In a case where their votes are needed to make up with the 25% requirements in their states for some candidates, such votes are not found rather they are contributed to the irrelevant ones in other states.

Also and most importantly, most Igbo in other states have either grown beyond the narratives in their home states or will be afraid to vote En masse for their preferred candidates(because they don’t live in clusters) thereby reducing the chances of their choice candidates. The second part is the reason why some of them travel home to vote and the others that don’t travel either do not care about the sentiments, or cannot travel for one reason or the other or are simply self defeated and do not see the reasons for traveling to vote.

sarrki:
Baba obj you are respected

Please let’s stop playing all this ethno religious cards

Nigeria will decide

Gone are the days mafias decides for us

When even OBJ, a so called detribalized Nigerian can be using ethnicity to campaign instead of his achievements in office, then one should know PDP has nothing good to offer.


There’s fire(PMB) on the mountain(Aso Rock) PDP is running from pillar to post.

LibertyRep:
Maybe if the Khaki boys had not kicked out Shagari just maybe our democracy could have deepened beyond this. Maybe we would have produced strong institutions instead of strong men.

Shagari was alleged to lead a corrupt regime but what is incontrovertible is that those that came after him didn't fare better.

I don't seem to get this idea of naming public institutions after dead leaders. What happens to honoring them while still alive?

Maybe just maybe if some rogue soldiers, all of eastern extraction had not carried out the first military coup (in the history of this country) against our 6year old country and its democracy in 1966, killing Only northern and western leaders, leaving only the eastern leaders and their kinsmen alive to live.

Maybe there won’t have been a counter coup that later lead to the civil war and so on till the northern officers got used to coups.

Maybe if the rogue officers had not scrapped the regional form of government.

Maybe nigeria would still be having a regional government and the north won’t be dominating.

Maybe the same kinsmen of first coup plotters won’t be the ones championing the cry for restructuring.

Maybe Nigeria would have been great with each region controlling its resources like it used to be before they destroyed everything.

Seriously we need to return history classes to Nigerian schools only that it will expose the ugly contribution of some set of people to the history of this great nation.

Gecoz:
Armed robber with an arsenal can be arrested via Liverpool or man city if I lie abeg ask bet9ja

Definitely not Nigerian police.

Nigerian police is the most useless in the world.


If ordinary senator with no heavy armory can be this hard for them to arrest then how do they plan to arrest an armed robber with an Arsenal.

How do they intend to protect the ordinary citizen?


They should just keep quiet with their useless statements.


What is so hard in arresting an offender?

AlBaqir:
Unfortunately it is your respected self that started with "confrontational" reply. I only replied in kind.

I’m not talking about your post to me but your post to the OP.



We are Muslims and should present better arguments rather than confronting each other in public.

AlBaqir:
What we have presented is the summary of different views on Basamala as stated in Ibn Kathir's tafsir. It's a long submission. Each and every sahabah who believed basmala to be part of Fatiha attributed their believe to the Prophet.




Again, Abu Hurairah was a chief liar and he was caught redhanded lying. You can read more about him here:
https://www.nairaland.com/4169105/abu-huraira-biggest-fraud-sunni#62315797


The points are:

1. Abu Hurairah himself, contrary to the abovementioned hadith reported another hadith that Prophet used to recite Basmala at the beginning of every sura during Salam. Besides, Some ulama realising the clash of his two ahadith created an excuse for him that he might have mistakenly ommited the basmala part.

2. Personally, I will follow other sahabah with more years of companionship with the Prophet (on this issue) than Abu Hurairah who barely knew the Prophet or had any reliable companionship with him.

Now this is argument rather than the confrontation you did with your earlier post.

But I’m still yet to be convinced cos what he said in the first and the second Hadith do not contradict.


The first was about what Allah said and the second was about what he reported the prophet did.

And here is also what the op said the prophet did

There is another authentic statement of Anas ibn Mālik ( رضي الله عنه ) in “Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim” in which he said:

I prayed behind the prophet ( صلّى الله عليه وسلّم ), Abū Bakr, and ‘Umar and none of them used to mention “In the name of Allah, the Most-Merciful, the Bestower of all mercy” at the beginning of their recitations (of Sūrah al-Fātiḥah) nor at the end of it.

[Recorded by Muslim (no. 399)]

If you’re to believe the companions over Abu hurairah then the above is a proof of what the prophet and the companions did as reported by Sahih Muslim. Or is Muslim too having a negative baggage.

Atom007:
It is impossible because life is now legbegbe life. No more pain for other humans, gragra on stage is d one blinding ppus eye. But some musician throw shirt to d crowd n see how people fight for it. The same thing too wen ppu r molested. Some see but can't halt due to d ongoing swagger things they r doing in stage, that's all

I beg to differ.


He sees it but his brain/mind won’t process it. That is what is called gaze. No matter how high you get or the adrenaline pumping through your blood, if your brain can process that your fan is in trouble at your concert and you have the power to stop it, you would stop it.

He was looking but his brain wasn’t processing what was going on.

AlBaqir:
Are you alive?

The OP quoted nothing other than hadith books reported by sahabah with saying attributed to the Prophet and to Allah. Besides, sahabi Abu Hurairah was a dubious and controversial figure. He lies a lot.

Question: other sahabah who believed Basmala to be part of Fatiha, did they acted upon their own personal view or they learnt that from the Prophet?

Uthman ibn Affan who allegedly compiled Quran and fixed Basmala as 1st verse of Fatiha, did he go against "Allah" as per Hadith of Abu Hurairah who "rarely met the Prophet"?

The bold is an after thought. You could’ve come up with that line before you started the whole countering.

Then again, I went through your submission again and no where was it stated that it was an Hadith only that “someone if of the opinion that” or someone is of the view that.

Where is the Hadith as recorded from the prophet. We don’t want their opinion or view.

Until you can provide the Hadith then your question is null. BTW I noticed you’re avoiding using hadiths as your proofs.

My own question: Are you saying what Abu Hurairah reported that Allah says Surah Fatiha is divided between him and is servant is a lie? That Allah never said so?

YES or NO?

Because if you’re saying Abu hurairah is a liar then it can only mean you’re saying the whole story of Allah saying Fatiha is divided between him and his servant is all fabble.


I’m just a neutral person here who has observed both arguments and your previous submissions. So I need your convictions to think otherwise.

2n2k:
NNMA gives merit award to outstanding academics, usually one or two persons (mostly professors) per year.

National Honours Committee make recommendation to the President on the award of national honours - those GCFR, MON, CON and the rest.

I responded initially because you said NNMA gives award to rogues who have ruled Nigeria before

.


Thanks for the clarification

I wonder what they need capital expenditure for?

KingOfAllIgbos:
This AlBaqir guy isn't well liked here

Unfortunately for many of his detractors, he schools them because he seems "better read" and often backs his argument with facts

We are all Muslims, Shia / Sunni. May ALLAH enlighten and guide us. We are all brothers

PS - I am a Muslim, no denomination, no sect though most would classify me as Sunni

I’ve seen some of his arguments to be baseless and lacking self judgement.

Self judgement in the sense that he couldn’t judge which should be heavier between what Allah said and what the sahabahs said.

The OP backed his argument with proofs from Allah himself but he chose to counter the OP with the sahabahs statements.

You yourself should judge, who’s words should be followed? Allah’s words or sahabahs words.

By the way there’s an Hadith where the sahabahs made what he’s saying clear. Where they said if you hear anything from them that is contrary to what the prophet said then you should take the words of the prophet(it’s a no brainer. One don’t need to be told before you know who to believe between the prophet and the sahabahs or between Allah and who ever).

Also notice that in all the Hadith he wrote he didn’t mention the prophet in any as saying anything. Only the names of sahabahs, scholars, and imams claiming this and that.

So here’s the questions, how does a sensible Muslim even place the words of sahabahs side by side with that of the prophet let alone Allah?

2n2k:
You confused NNMA with National Honours Committee which is under the office of the Secretary to Govt of the Federation.

Na wa o


So which one be National Merit Awards again abi no be aware dem dey give.


I sha know dem no dey construct roads.

I doubt a star will see his/her fan being assaulted and still go ahead with the show. It’s simply impossible.


If anyone has ever being on a stage or being privileged of speaking to a crowd, they’ll know it’s impossible to notice what is really going on.


You can only gaze at the crowd, the human brain is not advanced to process the information at that point especially when it’s busy with other activities(singing, jumping, dancing) and most probably had been distorted by the influence of weed.

AceRoyal:
Did you read my whole write up or you chose to read only the first sentence?

I did and didn’t see where you differentiated between the two.

Maybe if you explained the statement below further or rather rephrase it, it would make your whole comment to be less ambiguous.

yet the claims by this agency shows the reality on ground.

Suedo private jets for the politicians.
