They can't keep him secret. There are moles who despise the regime who are more than willing to sell them out.
Don't you know it's insiders that give info about the movement of these top targets Israel has been eliminating?
You're right. I'm just surprised they didn't even try. It reminds me of when Israel assassinated Hamas leader in Gaza that year, a man named Yasin and Dr Rantisi was announced as his replacement - only for Israel to kill him within a very short time. I was expecting these guys to delay the nomination a bit.

Is it smart to make it public? Israel has satellites and AI software that can pinpoint his location and they will take him out.
Exactly. Should have kept his identify secret. They've learnt nothing from Gaza.

At least they are going to Universities. And are responsibly protected from being prostitutes to ensure integrity of Iranian families....
Oh dear! You ever passed any exam like this?

Me: What will faithful Muslim women get as reward?

“Reclining on thrones lined up, and We will marry them to fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes

Surah Ar-Rahman (55:56–58)

So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny?
As if they were rubies and coral.”

Surah Ar-Rahman (55:72)
“Houris confined in pavilions.”


I believe in Hurul iyn.

Because it's mentioned in the Quran. And I am Muslim I Follow Quranic teachings....

I'm a Christian. We don’t believe in worshipping ancestors and sacrficing animals. We do believe that Lord Jesus (as part of the God head) laid down his life (and 3 days later took it up again) so that "whoever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16)
QuinQQ:
Well I know that when Britain was advancing towards Benin with a few soldiers, the Oba was busy sacrificing pregnant women and worshipping ancestors. They picked hm up like a chicken and sent him on exile. So also rest of Africa and all societies around the world that worship ancestors.
There was a Christian woman whose car had a brake failure at a corner. She started to call out repeatedly to Jesus, while doing her best to stabilize the vehicle. Unfortunately, she lost control and the vehicle fell into a ditch. She died.

So this DISPROVES Jesus?

You should tell me when exactly Nigerians complained about the price of foodstuff being low/cheap.
Read my post again. FARMERS have always suffered whenever it happens. Today, it's only farmers that are suffering as a result of it. I'm not aware that other Nigerians are complaining about low food prices. Are you complaining? Or what are you talking about?

It's not. How old are you? In a sector where government sector nonexistent, farmers have always had it bad whenever low food prices come around.

Yeah, Ifa makes sense until it starts talking about ancestors and sacrifices. Most successful societies don't worship ancestors and don't sacrifice animals! Same way societies with lowest infant mortality don't cut baby faces
Fair point. Animal sacrifices don't belong in the modern world. I guess that's why they don't practice it in Rabbinical Judaism. I'm sure Ifa people will get there too, with time. Face marking has reduced - it'll go with time too.

Nothing wrong with ancestor worship though. What you worship is just a function of your belief, nothing more. It will never make sense to anybody, except those who share the belief with you.

People are strange. Of all religions the one that resonates with that Spanish guy is Ifa! (See below)
These don't look bad. If I'd read this when I was still "searching", I'm sure I'd've found them very interesting, at least, and given Ifa a second glance.

On the circled, I've noticed that all religions emphasis sacrifice. Blood sacrifice, in particular, is a huge feature of pagan religions. I guess that's why blood sacrifice also features heavily in Christianity and Islam, as it does in their forebear Judaism, which had its roots in ancient Canaan pagan religions.
Politics › Re: Crashing Food Price Would Make Farmers Poor - Peter Obi by JuanDeDios: 3:57pm On Feb 28
amaridigital:
Abegi cut the crap and follow a reasonable leader who isn't following the advice of madman. Who is importing garri, beans and tomatoes into Nigeria? These items are also cheap now.
When most farmers were hoarding food to create artificial scarcity in order to inflate prices obi was crying about high food prices.
He's now running out of what to use as campaign tactics.
I thought some people on this forum especially Groundnutarians said that these are propaganda and no reduction in food prices anywhere.
Do we now believe the Groundnutarians who said no reduction in food prices or Obi who said food prices reduction would affect farmers?
@ConDawah

Bolded is the notion I'm concerned about - the wrong idea that food prices go up because farmers "inflate" prices. People see these upswings and downswings of food prices every few years, yet they refuse to accept basic economics.

Slytiger:
You went into food business to try and exploit people with wicked profits by hoarding supplies?
No. I'm not into storage business. But storage business is a legitimate business too – without it, food would go to waste and prices would be even higher. Pity you've miseducated yourself on the subject.
Politics › Re: Crashing Food Price Would Make Farmers Poor - Peter Obi by JuanDeDios: 3:52pm On Feb 28
ConDawah:
There's no way any country will experience high food prices for two consecutive years. It's basic economics.
What we're witnessing in general low price of agricultural produce is in direct response to scarcity witnessed in the previous year. We just need to ensure the surplus don't go to waste, and not create artificial scarcity to please the farmers. Most of us are also farmers in our own right.
God forbid this charlatan finds his way to our national life, never.
Everything you said is correct (apart from the bolded). These things go in circles - every farmer worth his salt knows it and those who are able prepare for it. I was just pointing out that when the high-price years come around, people will not remember and will make it look as if farmers deliberately create high prices.

Mr Obi is right to point it out too - that high prices, even though they're good, also have a downside on the national economy. Nothing charlatanish about that.

"The drop of food prices in the market has killed our farmers" - Peter Obi
******* It will. People are already gnashing their teeth. Some farmers have debt. The other day, someone sold his cassava farm for opueke price to herdesmen to feed their cattle.

But Nigerians don't care. They're not interested. Government no send. In a couple of years when high prices come around again, they will wail and cry endlessly about "greedy farmers" and "meedle men".

And that addiction will be cured the day bombs fall on US cities.

They'll get to experience what they've subjected other countries through for decades.

Bombing other countries relentlessly while they're safe back home makes them feel invincible.

This is why they're against any country developing long range ICBMs that can reach their country.

They want to be able to kill you while telling you not to develop weapons that can kill them back. American logic.

The US bombings have killed nearly 5 million people in the middle east.
So it's wrong to bomb other countries now. Oh, it's right when Russia does it. Better if bombing targets are day care centres and supermarkets. Smh.

When Peter Obi said he went to Bangladesh to learn how they improved their textile industry & discovered that tripling their power generation was the key, which made him go to Egypt to learn how they managed to improve their electricity, APC children of confusion were laughing at him.
That was very wrong of "APC children of confusion". Bangladesh and Egypt are two good examples we can learn from in matters of electricity generation and transmission.
