This isn't even news. Any sane Nigerian knows Nigerians respect anybody with money, it doesn't matter how they make that money, as long as they have it, they respected.

I believe this will fly over the head of the federal government.

Please try and read about sociological, legal and political concepts before you run your mouth.

When you want social media to be monitored, the question of privacy emerges. This is dealt with the Data Protection Act in English law. Do you have a robust data protection act in Nigeria to protect against invasion of privacy?

Freedom of speech is only limited by hate speech or libel or slander.

Freedom of speech does not apply to the contract between an employer and an employee. So the newspapers have every right to sack the editor.

as regard the emboldened. Sometime ago news broke out that Kiss Daniel lampooned Busola Dakolo only for Kiss Daniel to come out and refute it saying he never said so. Now the indicidual who broke that news is unknown. If Kiss Daniel wants to sue for libel, who will he sue?

My stand is social media is being used as a tool to spread falsehood in other to deceive the unsuspecting masses who swallow whatever they see without questioning the source.

Whenever an indicidual say something, let's know who he is so if what he said is false, we know who to hold responsible. Accountability for one's word is key, bro.

A regulated media is tantamount to a dystopian society, bro. Regulated media is a one of the characteristics of a dystopian society. Regulated media denotes oppression of the populace. A regulated media directly contradicts democracy, and by proxy, freedom of expression. Take away the voice of the people, and you may as well take away their freedom.

You need to read Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell, to fully comprehend the harmful characteristics of what you suggested.

Seriously? You think what we have in Nigeria is a democracy? Lol.

Beside, you missed the part where I said "by regulated, let's know who and who is saying what and what". That's what I mean by regulated social media.

I know you know, social media is full of unknown people who use it to spread unverified news in other to spread falsehood and incite the public.

JeromeBlack:
What happened to privacy and freedom of speech?

privacy? I don't see what it has to do with this. Freedom of speech however is there, but it doesn't give one the right to spread false news, does it?

Funny how this thread was ignored.

They trial women for speaking up yet, they don't even care inviting a woman who dress like a 'whore_' to their country to come and perform.

When I say religious folks nowadays use religion as a tool to deceive the foolish multitude, the religious drug addicts will take a dose of their addiction and start making noise.

Talk about hypocrisy of the highest order.

Though I won't be surprise if Nicki Minaj get a private invite from a Saudi prince to come and perform clandestinely for him. After all, na 'oyel' money.

This is the height of embarrassment...

Reekado initially was feeling cool, forming superstar that everyone wants to talk to...when he heard "unfortunate", he had to sit again like he was not on seat before

Women sef! because he is a superstar, you threw yourself at him', spread your dirty ugly legs for him to relieve stress therein. Now, you are monitoring his movement like a police officer whose promotion depends on it. Are you not useless?

bros Reekado messed up. He should have answered with "so". "I had sex with you, so? It's not like having sex with you is a crime even though I don't know who tha fvck you are".

Most of these celebrities care too much about their reputation. I bet you if it was Naira Marley, guy man for don yab the babe.

He had sex with you so? It's not like he raped you or something. You probably threw yourself at him, after he's done he stopped calling because that's just what it was, sex: a one night stand.

The said girl should get over it and move on Abeg. We're tired of females using sex as a way to shame/embarrass guys. It's not like he raped her or something. Like having sex with a girl and refusing to call her is now a crime or what exactly.

Abeg make we clear road for Jaga Jaga.

I didn't even need to read the entirety of the post to tell myself that, this is how it's done. People being held accountable for their actions.

This is the very reason why I support the move for social media to be regulated. By regulated I mean let's know who and who is posting what and what so who and who, can be held accountable for whatever they post.

Nowadays anybody can just post whatever for the sake of generating traffic, and it what they post is false, they go scud free because nobody knows who they are.

If he had any atom of sense in that empty head of his he would have known Thanos would first kill him before even thinking of listening to him. Why? Because Thanos doesn't associate or listen to brainless mofos.

Come on to play better ghedu for BBNAIJA, him no fit na to dey beg Thanos.

Yeye dey smell.

OLAADEGBU:
Click on the link or better still Google it.

I clicked on it. There wasn't any reference to the Nigerian constitution or any state criminal code. Now that is something you can quote because it is authentic, not the link you posted.

OLAADEGBU:
Why then will they have in their constitution that the age of consent is 11?

did you post the link to the Constitution, or you posted a link to a blog that ignorantly wrote that the age of consent is 11?

OLAADEGBU:
That's just to tell you that Nigeria is a nation that protects Paedophiles.

oh yeah, when this same nation have condemned paedophiles?

OLAADEGBU:
The age of consent in Nigeria is 11. See the link below.

https://www.ageofconsent.net/world/nigeria

I hope when you have sex with a girl of 13 years and you're caught you'll give the above link as evidence in court.

History wasn't on the side of Madagascar but hey, look what they did to Nigeria. If there's one thing I've discovered is that history is sometimes wrong, especially when it has to do with football.

Ishilove:
Way ahead of you, Joe. He is an equal opportunity ass whopper, that's what he is

Amen and amen.

Watching Shaft at the moment and the humour is first class. Men!. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. Wow.

Shaft.

A solid 8.9/10.

Totally love it.

Ishilove, I recommend this movie. I guarantee you'll like it and you damn well will appreciate the humour.

Watching Shaft at the moment and the humour is first class. Men!. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. Wow.

Whether it was consensual or not, if Busola was 17 years old at the time, Biodun Fatoyinbo raped her, statutory rape that is.

Drink lots of fluid in the morning, goodnight.

Thanks a lot.

JeromeBlack:
But does number 10 exist?

No. It is just a concept. Some early cultures had a number system that stopped at 6. Meaning that you have 13 fingers in base 7 (septenary)

hmmm. This is intense.

KoiceReloaded, jeromeblack and mekaprime. We'll continue this some other time. I'm too tipsy to reason properly at the moment. You guys earn my respect.

mekaprime:
lolz, It definitely not the same bro..The discussion is how possible it is to tear a hole to another dimension, create a wormhole/Einstein–Rosen bridge.. For now, its all Theories & fantasies. But with the level of work & mathematical computational on time travel, i believe it'll sure happen, probably a million years from now, but when it happens, it's going to pose one heck of a problem to mankind unless..unless there's nothing like a time paradox as a resultant effect to the time travel.

The problem involve is dealing with the paradox and creating a machine capable of creating a wormhole.

KoiceReloaded:
Mankind was able to transmit motion pictures are early as late 19 century, so inventing video call was just a matter of time. There is nothing out of the ordinary about the invention, since the technological ideals were within the range of possibility, as well as the foundations been laid already.

motion picture, really? Like events in motion picture happened real time? Like as it is happening it's being projected, without editing and the likes?

OMG, lolz. Did you just equate time zoning to time travel?? Bro, time zoning doesn't work like that, okay? We all exist on the same time, but merely separated by difference of time zones. To simplify:

Take for instance, a match kicked off at 8PM GMT, now by your logic, time zones with -GMT would be streaming the match ahead of time zones with GMT and +GMT respectively, but it doesn't work like that. Every time zones will receive the streams at exactly the same time (barring a delay in server/satellite relay ofc) irrespective of how far ahead or behind your are in your time zone. People in New York will start streaming it at 3PM at exactly the same time as People in Nigeria at 9PM, and so on. It's simple math.

time zoning/time travel, they both have to do with a particular place at a point in time. When you travel you go from one place to another, isn't it the same with zone? Like moving from one zone to another zone? Everything have to do with a place, a point in time.

As regard your reference to football match. I agree. Now if that satellite that transmit that signal doesn't exist, wouldn't you say streaming football matches is impossible? Like despite the difference in time zone, we're all able to watch the same thing at the same time, and at different time because if we check our wrist watch, our time still isn't the same.

JeromeBlack:
You are not wrong. Numbers do not exist. They are just a scientific concept.

How many fingers do you have? 10.
Now, does the number ten exist or is it your fingers that exist?

my fingers exist and they are 10 in number. How about that?

JeromeBlack:
I used to make such an argument until I realized that time does not exist.

The different time zones we use are just arbitrary time barriers we humans decided to adopt.

Time is nothing but a concept of measurement just like length or volume. It does not exist.

hmmm. Now this is a new twist. How so, surely you saying time doesn't exist is like saying numbers don't exist, because what is time if not numbers or am I wrong?

They had better make sure they win their match against South Africa, if not all this abs will be for nothing.

KoiceReloaded:
It's not the same thing. It's not something you can just invent out of nowhere. We're talking about Quantum mechanics here for crying out loud. The best Physicists including Einstein weren't and haven't been able to get the mathematics right, heck, most of them will tell you it's impossible to tear a hole to another dimension... that's what we're talking about here. It's like wanting to build a granite castle in air, but don't know how you're gonna keep the castle floating or even how to lay a foundation. Some things don't go beyond theories and fantasies.

still the same. In 1970 I know it was impossible for anything like video call to even exist because the technology wasn't available, yet.

Now see it this way, in some countries they're still in yesterday or some hours behind this present time, while some are ahead of this present time. A time I and you don't exist, isn't it possible to say they're living in the past or future? If I were to board a plane and travel to their own time (living my own time behind) won't you say I've time travel?

Let's take this one at a time.

KoiceReloaded:
Yes. We don't have the technology to fold space-time atm, and until we do, it's impossible.

hmmm. I understand you. So you're the kind of man who believe what he sees? Because once upon a time, video call was highly impossible, but now...

KoiceReloaded:
Hence Einstein's relativity laws.

so you still believe the idea of a time machine is impossible?

KoiceReloaded:
The film nailed the concept of time dilatation to a T. When Cooper and that girl made it back from the water planet only realize that 23 years have passed was a big holy_shit moment.

that's why Time is relative.
