Unfortunately many of these christians will not see and consider this, many of them will still cheer and applaud their pastors.

Many of the members of this churches were their pastors own private jets are poor and unemployed, one might ask what these churches are doing to help ameliorate the suffering of their members.

I find it hard to believe that many are still blinded by this sham of a thing called religion, the sooner we get rid of this foreign disease we call religion, the better it is for us all.

He never said it....

Snopes is a reputable site....and has been around long before Carson thought of being president.

And from the site you linked to....



Proving my point.

Well he should have come out and spit it, I guess later people will be saying he never said what he said about Obamacare.

Who refuted it? Mr Carson? Because the link doesn't say anything about Mr Carson refuting it.

Seun:
Provide a proper source. The part about hanging on trees doesnt sound like something any black American would say. Ever.

By 'proper' you mean a link?.

Who are those that buy it, is it the civil servants in Osun who are yet to be paid salary for months or the bankrupt state officials in other states who are fighting for bailouts

What are you saying? Osun workers now live and earn a living in Lagos state right? Or they travel for hours just to come and buy a phone in Lagos?.

Please learn to debate well and stay on point.

midolian:
Cheap blatant lie!

Bros why you dey para na!. LOL.

kettykin:
The per capita income in niger delta and Abuja is higher than lagos per capita income, more people in those areas have more disposable income.

Oh you think people who buy these gadgets operate on per caapita income or what have you.

Besides, you mentioned the east, I don't know when the niger delta became the east.

I've always maintained that BH should be wiped out, there shouldn't be any avenue for negotiation.

kettykin:
As a fall out of the recent mayhem which took place in the multi-billion Naira Alaba international market by street urchins who tried to extort money from business men and traders in the popular Electronic market.

Is there any need for foresighted business men to open a new multi billion naira electronics, phone computer mall in the safe havens of Eastern nigeria which would be run as a branch of the Alaba international and computer village until gradually full business activities pick up their and gradually Alaba and Computer village is wound up.

Should igbos take this far reaching preemptive move to safeguard their business from the preying eyes of envious people considering the fact that the real market is in the south south, Abuja where the per capita income is highest in West Africa


Please no emotion driven insults and fear instigated comments.


Your candid opinion and analysis is needed

And if the markets are moved to the east, I suppose easterners have the flare and long throats which Lagosians have to buy gadgets at very high price?

The markets you speak of are here to stay and nothing and nobody can move them anywhere else.

Of course Nigeria has no official religion, the constitution made mention of that!

But some people will always make every believe that their own opium sorry religion is Nigeria's official religion.

Nice Mr Otedola, and what do we do when Forte oil attendants refuse to sell for N50?

I expect Mr Otedola to know that getting Nigerians to comply with a directive can be very strenuous, even ones own employee, as long as you're not there to monitor them.

I expect him to have considered this and provide a report line where Nigerians can use to report any member of his staff who refuse to comply with this directive.

Well I guess this story might give testament to the fact that "what a man can do, a woman can do better".

The same Ben Carson who said slavery was the greatest thing to have ever happened to the black man?

Men I must say Ben Carson does remind me of Uncle Ruckus no relation in the Boondocks.

cao:
When someone asks you about your rights, what does that imply?

I see. Then I believe your gaze should be directed to the north, because as far I know, women here in the south have the same rights as men, its only in places like northern Nigeria you see women rights being trampled upon.

So your feminism gaze should be focused on northern Nigeria where their religion is just as oppressive and repressive to females like the christian religion (in a way).

cao:
Nope, you won't be assuming. Why should anybody's gender affect their rights?

And by 'their rights' you mean what specifically?

cao:
I thought I already defined this, but I will try again. In the most succinct terms, feminism is equal rights for women. That's it, no over complicated spiel. People seem to get lost in the man hating drama, when the word "feminism" comes up.

So I won't be assuming if I say you believe in 'equal rights' for women?

Cao, I'm curious to know and ask you what your definition of feminism is?. Please kindly oblige me with a reply.

Thanks.

midehi2:
but we still hear bombing, anyway kudos to them.

When was the last time you heard of a bombing? Kindly fill us in.

This is nice and in contrast to the last administration where instead of us to see Nigerian Army pursuing Boko Haram, the reverse was the case.

I believe at the rate things are going, Boko Haram might be history by this time next year.


Insha Allah.
