budaatum: There is nowhere it says buda must do as joseph does, and you should mind creating others in your own image.
One must surely subscribe to an ideal to quote it even if one does not "subscribe to the person" "or even their way of life".
I never said Bob Marley quoted Karl Marx! My claim is their words I quoted are similar in meaning, and I did ask "would you call him a Bobist" so you can assign his words to himself and in his own right
As for what he means, I'm suggesting Bob and Karl are saying the exact same thing. Take it or leave it as you will.
Sorry, but I do not do juvenile, and nor do I intend to benefit more than the content of your mind.
So, engage buda with your mind please or not at all, thank you.
I'm sure Buda understands punctuations, no? before she went ahead and started making assumptions.
So, kind Buda, I ain't a juvenile. I'm Nairaland's resident immortal. I've been 40 since 2015. And hey, I am engaging you with my mind. Want to read it's lewd thoughts?
budaatum: Oh mein gott! Another one who thinks posting a quotation or about a thing makes one a lover of the person quoted instead of what is quoted!
Bob sang "Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery; None but ourselves can free our minds". Guess he's a Marxist lover too, in your opinion, or would you call him a Bobist, in his own right?
First off, never will you see me make a quote about what I don't like or from people I don't like or can't even stomach.
Second, why quote a person you don't subscribe to his or her ideals or even their way of life?
Third, Marley didn't quote Karl Marx, in that song, did he? So, Marley telling us to "Emancipate ourselves from mental slavery" etc is he telling us what exactly? And what do you understand by mental slavery?
Fourth, You my dear, can benefit more by telling me when was the last time you stepped into the bathtub, highly naked.
budaatum: It is possible that "that man won't back down easily like Jonathan", but I'm very certain we Nigerians will make him come down if he loses the election.
We sure would make it impossible for him to stay up for long if we unite and kick him out.
Ishilove: All these marine agents and their destructive works. See as the so-called Ezenwanyi is lying through her teeth. Was she married off at 15? Nonsense
my dearest Ishi. Take a very good look at the faces of the individuals, involve in this unholy matrimony, you can clearly see one thing written: poverty
The very reason why their faces are hardened like that of granite. People like this can kill.
A high body count is just what it is, a high body count. Any woman with high body count, isn't worth the effort, that's the truth behind the hidden truth.
Achilles100: Gods ke? Isn't Robinhood an English tale? There aren't any 'prominent' English gods na.
In the Robin Hood series in late 80's I watched, there was Hun The Hunter. Not sure he's a god but he acted as guide to Robin Hood. Gave Robin Hood the magical sword Albian, one of the seven swords Wayland or so, charged with the power of light and darkness.
So glad to see Lucy Lawless back as Lucretia.... Would have loved her involvement MORE in this. Eternal TV Queen. See that lyrical intro nah....... I'M HYPED.
This gives the show a mythological what if spin, which explains and tidies things nicely.
musicwriter: The people that gave you Nigeria also gave you the English language.
Know it that your whole life is now artificial.
Having said that, there's nothing wrong with you an Esan man learning in Hausa or Fulfulde. And there's nothing stopping you an Esan man building an Esan school in Northern Nigeria for Northerners to attend too.
I don't really blame you all when you fail to understand what's at stake. Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka, Christopher Okigbo, Ezekiel Mphalele and co brought us to this situation. If these people did the right thing after colonialism, we would have been living in a different Africa built with our own language, and all this type of policy would've been behind us for long.
My life isn't artificial. Just because Flora Shaw gave us the name Nigeria, doesn't negate the fact that I'm an esan man, and nothing can take that away.
In as much as there is nothing wrong with me, an esan man learning in Hausa or Fulfude, there is also nothing wrong with the Hausa or Fulani man, learning in esan, neither does it stop them from building a school, back here in South South, but the question is, will them?
Perhaps you can also tell the Hausa or Fulani man, as well as other tribes, who are Muslims to learn the Quaran in their native language.
Nigeria is a multi ethnic country, we adopted English as our common language. This doesn't take a away the fact that I, and every other Nigerian don't know who they are, or where they are from.
Sowore should face the numerous woes he has with the FG and leave this matter to those who it matters to.
It's obvious from the documents posted, that there is foul play somewhere. Regina Daniels Voters card say she was born in 1998, her Nigerian Passport say she was born on 2001. So what gives?
Let those who can, find out the date attached to her NIN, then may be we can get some little truth about this whole issue.
musicwriter: This is why in civilized societies like China, Japan, Russia, etc, organizations like the British council is made to know their space and never cross it.
But then, if a white institution is in the African continent to promote their language, it should immediately arouse the curiosity of the black people. Where I don't see it, it means there's something wrong with us.
I therefore, withdraw my support for the Tinubu administration. This is the worst policy a black president can implement.
Don't you think it causes division for states to adopt their indigenous language as regard education?
How can I, an esan man, because I live in Sokoto state, be made to learn in Hausa or Fulfude? That's like infringing on my fundamental human right.
A disturbing moment captured in Enugu State shows Ozioma Okonkwo being arrested after shocking allegations surfaced against him. According to reports, his wife alerted authorities, accusing him of defiling their two daughters and threatening to take her life if she spoke out.
The heartbreaking video reveals the pain, fear, and betrayal surrounding this tragic family case, sparking outrage across social media as many call for justice for the children and protection for the mother.
⚖️ Authorities are currently investigating the case to ensure justice is served.
ShEs been charged to court. The charges against her speak for itself.
If I were that husband or man, I would attach a lawyer to the case and not leave it in the hands of the police prosecutor, so she can face the music properly.
lezz: Tell you , bro. So she's 27 and claims to be 24.
She's hit the wall already and still behaving like a 16 year old bamboozled by Tik Tok
She might be 24 though, one doesn't know what goes on in the minds of girls like Regina Daniels. All the same, we've seen that she married Ned Nwoko because of his money.
She's just as repulsive as many of those women out there, who are on the hunt for men with money. Such women don't even mind to use juju to subdue their men.
It's a shame really. I'll advice Ned to not pay her any attention anymore. Let her continue to make more noise on social media, till the day Ned sues her to court.
lezz: A valid voter's card is a confirmation document admitted as proof in every part of the world.
Would you like to stay off Nairaland for a while and do a crash course in common sense? I can point you a nice place sir.
Im sure glad Ned kept that voters card.
One thing I know, women, tend to decrease their age whenever they faced with this same opportunity that befell Regina Daniels. All the same, I'm glad Ned Nwoko kept receipts.
Dude would have been done fall if he hadn't. Shows you how scheming and conniving many of them are.
