Any ideas please? I’m sick of going to church and seeing that white man face staring at me.
I don’t believe that God is white and that He has a white son that I’m supposed to worship.
I REFUSE to be brainwashed by the British.
Can any of you guys recommend a good traditional deity to follow, please?
Or if not, a good traditional priest who can direct me accordingly.
Much appreciated.

I suggest you start by visiting your village people --- your mother and father for answers to this. It is important to adopt a deity that would in fact serve our interest and not one that would end up as ineffective for you as the God of Israel and Jesus Christ, who are both meant only for those who are of the blood of Jacob. 😁

Apology not necessary after all there were rehearsals before the event and the organizers are fully aware of the subject.

Remarkably, that's the lifestyle that Kamala Harris promoted in Uganda and Ghana when she visited Africa last year. Both countries shut her down.
What nobody seems to understand is why economic cooperation and assistance by USA is tied to these special breed of humans in LGBTQ+ community. This playbook is only applicable to Africans. It makes one wonder---what exactly is the agenda?

It is after all the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, a part of the foundation that is all UN member states, including Nigeria.

Things are hard, but the protest is a very very bad idea at this point. The events post Endsars protest still dey traumatize me. I don't ever ever want to get used to the sound of gunshots.

If only we had a listening president who wasn't so far detached from the people. A simple address would calm things down.
Elections have consequences!

You were traumatized by it but never demanded those responsible for the trauma be made to pay? Your government official, including members of your armed forces were convicted of the killings during the EndSars but those men walk free to this day even after it all. They continue to live as if above the very law and courts in Nigeria . Isn't that reason enough to protest?

Alexis11:
∆ Yoruba people are not saying they are not protesting, they just don't want people that will use that opportunity to burn their town/region or loot their shops.

Let everybody protest peacefully in their various states/regions.

The people who hijacked the EndSars protest were your political class who hired thugs and brought in armed officials to perpetuate violence.

“For the past few days, some telecom companies have been disconnecting their subscribers for very flimsy and untenable reasons. Some allege lack of NIN registration or linking while some did not give any reason at all.
“This action is coming on the heels of the proposed struggle of the people against hunger, poverty, suffering and the suffocating economic policies of the Tinubu administration.
“From all indications, it wouid seem that the underlying target of the telecom companies is to limit the reach of their customers in order to restrict access and thus frustrate the protests,” he said.
Adegboruwa noted that the contract between a telecom company and its subscribers is sacrosanct and should not be tampered with arbitrarily.
“Sufficient information and opportunity should be given for subscribers to remedy any alleged breach or error.
“So many telephone users deploy their numbers for their businesses and other lawful engagements, not to talk those who may have medical and health related emergencies.
“The NCC is urged to look into this and come to the rescue of the subscribers,” the senior lawyer added.
Meanwhile, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) said over 40 million telephone lines earlier barred ver failing to link their NIN faced the risk of being forfeited soon.

These are some really serious allegations being leveled here against the Telecomms companies.

∆ Don't you ever quote me again in your life?

The opening ceremony was a very artistic show of talent.

nlfpmod:
At Babcock convocation, Ogun state governor is speaking and decides to warn against impending protests. The audience boos him, he doubles down, promoting the good deeds of the current administration, and gets more boos
A graduand climbs the stage much later and calls out state governors for the state of the economy, gets cheers and a standing ovation
I feel the need to provide context here.
"Audience" includes grandparents, parents, other well wishers. Not just students.

Now, that is more like it! Excellent job by the ajst

System202:
To those saying it was a lie, the Guy's mother was kidnapped some days back. but bcs he is selfish he went on and praise Tinubu in his new song while mocking people's sensibility saying that their was no Hunger and insecurity in the Land, this infuriates northerners and went on to report his account. This forthcoming protest has gain a lot of weight and momentum in the north and those that are skeptical should check Facebook sites like bbc hausa, legit hausa and so on to read comments on what is happening. Kwankwason was roasted yesterday even by his known staunch supporters

His mother was kidnapped? It could have been a false alarm naw. Or maybe Tinubu supposedly rescued his mother from the hands of kidnappers, not that he is not equally responsible for the insecurity in the country.

MIKOLOWISKA:
was her father violent? Why will govt shout at noon violent protesters

Endsars Protesters were not violent but the government shot at them. There are videos online of touts showing up on buses, including BRT, to protest group armed with weapons. Surely, they were not there to join the protest and not sponsored by youths who were recorded partying during the protest..

Philipponzaghi:
Rarara's music is a vibe we can't afford to lose. Northerners are just showing their loyalty to the cause.

Let's keep supporting Tinubu and our culture, no matter the noise from the opposition. Keep the faith!

What music?

Peaceful demonstrations to convey felt needs are rights enshrined in our nation's constitution, which also highlights ways and means by which such rights and dissents are disposed.
But are protests and demonstrations necessary at the time our national ecosystem is recovering from a grievous pandemic and the worst economic crisis since the great depression? I profoundly, with all sense of responsibility, do not think so.
In the apparently challenging circumstances this nation finds itself as it tackles headlong the triggers left unattended to in its 25 years of democratic practices, you would agree with me, that it is only germane that the present structural reforms put in place by the federal government, together with its many cushioning interventions are just the only way to get this nation out of the wood.

Nigeria is one of the few countries in the world that was largely impacted by the scourge that was the COVID devastation of 2020.

And this claim that there was some sort of economic crisis, which economic crisis? Is this some sort of reference to Buhari's deplorable handling of the Nigerian economy during his administration abi wetin?

iwaeda:
Is God angry with Nigeria over Muslim-Muslim Ticket?
Unless with want to deceive ourselves, things are not normal again in Nigeria.

Which God? You mean the Allah of the Muslims? Your politicians clearly serve only the gods of money and power. They have succeeded in using your religions and traditional Ideals for their political gains. clearly, you are cannot fight them unless you cut them off completely from their gods by your human might.

∆ Clown, they didn't mock your white Jesus.
This is a celebration of Greek gods. I don't know what concerns Christians with a festive show that's meant to celebrate other gods.

Nah! It was unmistakenly Davinci's last supper with a twist.

A lot of people have complained that their Sim card has being blocked due to NIN linkage, even those that have linked their Sim are not speared.

SmartyPants:
∆ Wtf! What do you understand by limitation? If I can take you to Court and have you punished for saying something, do you then have an absolute right to free speech?
Are you the real kobojunkie or an impersonator??

This is simple naw! Not all defamation cases are prosecuted. If you have to first take me to court and then have a court decide whether what I said constitutes defamation or not, that clearly means defamation cannot be construed as direct or even indirect limitation to freedom of speech.

Iyke1998:
In a bid to discourage residents of FCT from joining the planned nationwide protest, FCT minister Wike paid visit to some communities in the FCT..

Make the protest start now, and una go see Wike retract his initial claim only to lie that he has always been for the people's right to protest in FCT. Na so him do for Rivers. After the people took their protest to him in Rivers, Wike was recorded denying he had condemned their right to protest. Na so the weasel dey do..

SmartyPants:
∆ That is the letter of the law. It says any law that is made that limits the aforementioned rights is valid so far as it can be justified on any of those bases.

Again, defamation is not a limitation on the right to free speech this since the law does not immediately kick in the one supposedly defamed; that only takes place after a suit filed and a court rules that a defamation has in fact taken place.

SmartyPants:
∆ That is the letter of the law. It says any law that is made that limits the aforementioned rights is valid so far as it can be justified on any of those bases.

The letter of the law says nothing or what you assert.

SolomonGrandi:
∆ Mr Lawyer or I sabi Law if your protest inhibits my ability to go to and from work does that not also trample upon my freedom?
Brilliant lawyer or I sabi law well done

Stick to the letter of the Law is all we call for here.

SmartyPants:
∆ Are you sure you understand what you read in Section 45? It very clearly provides the Constitutional bases for the limitations of Constitional rights--as I said--with such bases including:

a. Defence, public safety, public order, public morality or public health; [the bolded are the clear limitations to the right to peaceful assembly]
b. The defence of the rights and freedoms of others (defamation as a limitation to free speech clearly falls under this provision)

There are thousands of articles explaining the limitations to rights. I'd suggest you devote more time to reading some than arguing here.

Stick to the letter of the law.

blowjohn:
∆ Most of them are the ones in charge of or approve of nonsense like that

Because you assume approval is necessary for what you ignorantly consider nonsense, abi?

SmartyPants:
1. That is why I just told you there is no such constitutional right to protest. There is a right to assemble as long as your assembly does not impede my freedom of movement and constitutes a public nuisance. As I've told you, this is a well-established human rights principle. See Article 27(2) of the African Charter for example.

2. Of course it is true. Your right to free speech is limited by a requirement that you do not defame others, constitute a public nuisance, make seditious proclamations and so on. Similarly, your right to assemble must not impede my right to a freedom of movement.

1. The right to assemble, right to thought and right to expression are found in sections 38, 38 & 40 of your Constitution.

2. Defamation is not a limitation to the right of free speech. See Section 39 and maybe 45 of your Constitution.

The fight happening here is that from your gods of men wailing up and down in search of attention for their religion in all of this. 😂😂🤣🤣

You at least admit that this is about the egos of their many gods of men and not about anything else.😁😁😁

CilicMarin:
An impeccable source, very close to Peter Obi, just told me, He( Peter Obi) has concluded plans to contest for the senate in 2027, under APGA.

Wow!

Make the man go rest abeg! 8 years as governor yet he failed to take Anambra beyond how he met it. Wetin him wan come do as senator? The same thing? Make we hear word o'jare!

In other news, I do hope this coming protest yields dividends so that Nigeria can adopt a part-time Senate as opposed to current structure.
