They served Adekunle beer and meat and he joked, "Before I drink my beer, I want Father to make it holy. After all, Jesus turned water into wine. If you cannot do this, it means you are fake". Sensing the mockery in his voice, Anthony refused to bless the beer and Brigadier Adekunle, noticing Anthony's reluctance, said "Well, if you don't bless it, it is blessed".
Lol. I wonder if Adekunle was Christian or agnostic.

Education › Re: NOUN Scraps Law Programme, Leaves Over 1000 Students' Career In Jeopardy by JuanDeDios: 10:03pm On Jul 05, 2024
Fkj202004:
Well NOUN is not to be blamed. There was an issue with law school and NOUN stopped admitting fresh law students since 2015 and allowed those still studying the course to graduate since 2015.

From 2015 to 2023 is 8 years, all the law students are supposed to have graduated but due to the unserious nature of some students, they didn't graduate for over 8 years for a programme of 5 years.

I can confirm to all of you that NOUN recently graduated a lot of law students that finished their programmes. The ones that didn't graduate are the ones that failed some courses or didn't finish their projects.


Before closing the programme in final semester of 2023, NOUN gave all law students still studying to round up by second semester of 2023 because the programme will be finally closed in preparation for a fresh opening. So why didn't the students use the 2 semesters of 2023 to finish their programme?


Also, NOUN gave the law students that didn't graduate two options: switch to another programme within the university or transfer your credits to other universities and continue from there.

So why are you guys blaming NOUN? Investigate before putting out blames
Interesting. So what's the fate of their law graduates?

I agree. But some people claim it's religion that made them better - I'm just saying allow them. Besides, there are people who were murderers and rapists and scammers who gave up that life when they converted to a religion – Christianity, Islam, traditional religion – I have seen it.

3. Tell any INEC official coming to rig to write their will.
4. We thank God for the Supreme Court victory. It would not have been possible without Odili.
He would call me in the midnight and tell me,,, go and see this person, go and see that person. Look where we are today.

5. If I see Amaechi, I will kick him and turn him upside down.
6. I bought form for everyone of them,, did they buy form?
7. I don't have time, I was watching them and went to drink my 40 Year old whiskey.
8. I can never be a minister, I can never be second fiddle in my own court.
9. I can never be Vice President to anybody.
10. I will never leave PDP. Even if I don't get the ticket, I will support whoever is the party's choice.
11. How can Dave Umahi and Ayade leave and work against the party that made them? Some people have no integrity.
12. He abused a traditional ruler, see his cap like Usman Dan Fodio.
13. He even said thunder fire somebody while inside a Church event.

Number two. If you grow naturally, the produce has more and cleaner nutrients.
Where have I disputed the above or dismissed the superiority of organically grown food?

You’re the one who cited oyinbo rejection of our food to put down Nigerian food, adding that some Nigerians even import their food. That’s why I reminded you that those countries accept fertilizers and certain levels of contaminants. These levels are set based on scientific recommendations. And it makes sense when you think about it: under the current system, if all food is produced organically, there won’t be enough and there’d mass starvation. Maybe in future when we get better at it, but for now, it is what it is. I’ve listened to Obasanjo when he was questioned about this organic food matter on Radio Nigeria. He made an argument similar to mine: organic foods should be encouraged but other methods should not be stopped because people have to eat. He was clearly not against the use of fertilizers and other modern methods in that interview. When I have the power to re-create the world as I see fit, everyone will be like you and all food would be organic. For now, I live in the real world and will help myself and others find tips to cope amidst the mess we have to deal with. You said you buy beans with some weevils. That’s what I do. Glad you’re coming to my point: give people tips to survive the current flawed system since they can’t all live in your utopia of buy food from abroad (where they also use fertilizers) or grow your own. And where did I say frying is nature? Someone needs to improve their understanding. Interesting that you diss grilling and frying but not boiling. I guess you’re cool with the contaminants in the pots you use to prepare your beans. You buying weevil beans because you can’t wait for organic actually sums all the “grammar” I’ve been speaking (people have to eat and can’t wait till your import-or-grow-your-own utopia), but go on arguing. And the corporate world took away your ability to do your own gardening? Another interesting one.

I’m not sure why you find my idea of waiting till you’re personally affected or determined to be predisposed so repulsive. For a guy who set up himself as all-wise and throws “stupid” at people, this doesn’t say much for your basic thinking capacity – same way you lack the capacity for a civilized conversation. I mean, isn’t that what everyone does? I did not give up bread because I read on the Internet that it’s bad. I gave it up because it was found to be bad for me. Fish contains heavy metals, but I’m not about to give it up, unless I’m affected. Until then, I just take certain measures to minimize my exposure. (This is what you say is a horrible idea.) Turkey contains purine, which can lead to gouts, but people still eat it and are just fine. I’m just saying only those that have nut allergies should avoid nuts. Everyone else only ought to ensure the nuts they’re eating is as clean as possible. This is what you find “dangerous”, “stupid”, “nonsense” and “potential tool”. I’ve done my research on antinutrients, but I’m content to learn at my own pace, because I realise life is not perfect and knowledge is incremental. Besides, new information emerges every day.

Anyway, thank you, oga farmer. I will not be reading your subsequent reply to me. Just carry on the good work – with your uncouth choice of words and fear-mongering. “You will pay with your death.” Yeah, and you won’t die until 80 or 90 – guaranteed. I guess the weevil beans you say you buy don’t have antinutrients to “deal with you very well”. Na Odogwu you be. smiley

How did I manage to change my food? Most people aren't busy like me. Lol. It's all about priorities. If cancer jam such a person and they tell such only organic can heal the person....tell me if such won't do it by all means. So, na usual excuses.
If you have cancer and you have to make some dietary changes, you will because you HAVE TO. MOST people don’t have to and it’d just be additional cost or, worse yet, hunger if they attempt it. Like I said, food has been getting contaminated since the beginning of time, long before science availed us the ability to discover these contaminants. Nature contaminates food. I’m not disputing that breeding has caused its own issues. (I don’t have information as to when anyone modified our black eyed peas and put antinutrients in them, and I’m sure you do.) Antinutrients (even the little ones remaining after heating) don’t harm most people; that is why a blanket advise against grains has never been issued anywhere. Even most of the pots we cook with contaminate our food. Grilling contaminates it too. So does frying. Groundnuts contain carcinogens, but there’s no evidence they’ve actually given anyone cancer. Thankfully, the human body is designed to deal with these things, with help from antioxidants. I doubt there are many people living in Nigeria you’d test for malaria that you won’t find MP in their system – yet they’re not all falling ill. Good health is a result of many factors, with genetics being the biggest. Genetics is why some people eat, drink and smoke what they like and go on to live in good health till 90.

I’ll assume you’ve verified all your claims and are speaking from knowledge. Not sure I understand your point about gluten but there’s evidence it harms SOME people (unlike yams which have never made anyone sick), and those people are advised to avoid it. 99.99 of people I know eat gluten, and I’ve not seen any campaign for people to stay off it, so I’ not sure why you say we’re being warned off it. Only those intolerant of it are told to stay off and for them it's usually not an option because the condition can totally ruin their day-to-day living. There was no gluten-resistance among ancients who ate it? Well, I didn’t know that. I do know that my ancestors did not eat gluten, as we don’t have wheat and co in my tribe. (We know adaption is important, as it partly explains why lactose intolerance is more common among people of certain ethnicities.)

I agree people should take their health seriously by taking REASONABLE measures. I just don’t think that “seclude yourself from Nigerian food or grown your own” is within the reach of most people. But I’m not an expert on the matter like you. You may well have information that the antinutrients that remain in egusi soup after cooking is harming people, and yours may well be a worthy campaign – even though I remain unconvinced that risking mass starvation is a better ideal than risking some harm to a few people who may react to antinutrients or be harmed by pesticide residues. Enjoy your day – and LOLing.

By the way, how were we formerly exporting yam ŕ? Lol. Dey play. Do you think we exported yams via planes in those days? When you grow yams naturally, they last very long. Go ask vegetable farmers. Those sellers know it, too.
Yes, there’s nothing wrong with Nigerian yam. They, and products made from them, are being sold all over USA and UK. Even you or the links you posted haven’t stated anything wrong with them. No health condition has been linked to them. You’re right that yams last long in our barns back at home. But a certain percentage always got spoilt over the months. I don’t have information that fertilizer is responsible for quicker spoilage during shipping, and I’m sure you do. But the use of fertilizers is not a Nigerian thing. The problem here is that food is rarely labelled. Even the use of pesticides is not unique to Nigeria. The reason I stay off our farmed fish and birds is the lack of regulation which allows farmers to use anything in any quantity at any time.

When I was a kid in the village, we used a certain pesticide to preserve maize. But there were rules. Once we arranged the maze, the place was locked and no one would enter for the next four months or so. (I think the rule said 3 months). By the time we open the place to process the maize for sale, a few weevils had started to appear in them, meaning the pesticides had worn off. But now, wholesalers are abandoning the rules. People are feeding all sorts of antibiotics to fish and taking them to market the next day! Market women are putting sniper in stock fish, beans and some other grains and selling them! Yes, pesticides go into the system of plants and can remain after washing. But how much? Black-eyed peas from Nigeria are rejected in Western countries, not because they have pesticide residues, but because the residues are “above acceptable levels”. Foods consumed in those countries also often have pesticide residues but their farmers and traders follow the rules.
