koyyes: Even with the education from your degree course in law,your arguement is like that of a child with the brain size of a cray fish. what had circumcision got to do with the subject matter? did you not read about its significance to the isrealites and how that became irrelevant with both christ believing jews and uncircumcized gentiles making up the 1st century christian congregation? Now go back and read the book of genesis and read where adam cowardly accused eve of making him eat the fruit just the way people like you blame women for your misfortune- did God buy that flimsy and ridiculous excuse? yes, eve was deceived but adam SINNED- and both adam and eve faced the consequences for their greedy action. Nothing there gives any sign of superiority/inferiority meaning. God could have created another bone by himself but He chose to use adam's bone to signify ONENESS between adam and eve which adam buttressed when he said - 'this is atlast,bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh...'. Don't misinterprete the bible to prove any of your wicked personal believes.
It's funny how you compare the size of a man and woman's brain but left out the fact that men actually use just HALF of their brain(God made it that way). you say men invent but tell me what you and your brothers have invented for the past how many decades? does that mean you and your cohorts use only 1/4 of your brain? there is a limited level of pain all humans can take but go to the labour rooms and witness the power God has given women to bring lives into this world. Then you'll realize that you've been living in a fools island....because i know that you are not a true christian,i'll wait for more ignorant comments from you so i can educate you more.

I was hoping for a civil exchange of opinions. But i should have known a category A biitch like you couldn't produce one.

Your diction is cheap and is laced with the bitterness and frustration only a confused and directionless feminist can have.

I took time out to read ur comments on this topic and discovered that you verbally attack anyone with different opinions with insults. That makes you a blue print for a woman without class, poise, refinement and sophistication of a 1924 grandmother.

You are bitter courtesan who has derailed from her part and into the abyss of feminism. Your bitterness depicts you hate your very birth as a female. That's just too bad because you're stuck.

Scroll up and read my exchange of opinions with babygirlf, although she didnt buy my notions, she expressed hers with grace and pois and sophisrication that depicts she's well in spirit and emotion.

Now, you embittered, a -dime- a-dozzen, classless ,mannerless slutttt, why did God wait till Adam eat the fruit before coming?

Does the new testament prohibited man from circumcision ? What's your take on the right of a husband stopping his wife from fulfilling a vow she voluntarily made to God almighty ?

Do you know the meaning of the Greek word ''Father'', that was insufficiently translated to English? For your information it's a name attributted to God.

Oh ,as saint Paul said, the woman is made for the man and created after the man, bittcchh.

If you ever get married, you're going to raise up effeminate, gay sons and lesbian daughters, you 21st century Jezebel.go teach you're daughters to stand up and try and browbeat their husbands and control them.

You're just a puppet African monkey who hasn't finished understanding the social doctrines the west is shoving down your gullible, stupid and willing throat. You are trying to live out a social concept that your sawdust brain can't comprehend the depth of.

Ugly fool with a dark mannerless heart and an uglier facial profile. Learn to teach your daughtets their strenght in their meekness, faceless biiitch.
God created man in his perfection and a woman is only our weaknesses. Yes, you loud, dark, feminine fool, the strength of a woman is in her meekness. foR she isn't as physically endowed or as emotionally stable or as wise.

I know you want to pose as a female liberator but you came off as a flag ship of naivety..

Now i know you bleed once a month from your eternal injury, so i'm pardoning your blasphemy and market woman attempts at insult.

Now run along, biitch, sluts like you don't bother me.

babygirlfl: @ lezz

I quoted a scientific journal because I believe in science. Just to let you know that this is one out of many journals saying the same thing. However I can see that you have made up your mind and I can't do anything about that. I just wish you read the journals without bias. I must admit that despite your constant talk down on women, our conversation was civil (thank you very much). Bye and have a good day.

I too beleive in science. But i draw the line between science and reality. So many scientific fact has been proven wrong over the ages.

Besides, science always give an assertion to EVERYTHING in life. Even spiritual occurences have scientific conclusions. Yeah, sometimes they are right, other times they're wrong. Catastrophically wrong.

I believe the bible as more authentic blue print for the interactions between the male and female than science which has given ys the theory of evolution.

Also, i do not look down on women as i beleive the role of women in society is distinct and different from men. It's all about different responsibilties to achieving an eternal, glorious goal. Modernity is merging that role to be played by no one or either one. It's fundamentally wrong and disastrous.

Lastly, the push for female liberalisation,empowerment and feminism is one and the same force that is now pushing gay and lesbians.

These are no coincidence of time or happenstance. It's a machinery set in motion with one goal: to break down the morality and order of nature and society.

Have a nice day.

babygirlfl: I did not define intelligence. I simply stated the researchers who found out that men had bigger brains said it does not equal intelligence. Other things you wrote are opinions not fact. As for intelligence, see coloured and bolded below.


Scientists have known for a while now that men and women have slightly different brains, but they thought the changes were limited to the hypothalamus, the part of the brain that controls sex drive and food intake. A few scientists may have admitted that men's brains were indeed bigger, but they would have tried to qualify this finding by telling you that it was because men were bigger. Because brain size has been linked with intelligence, it's very tricky to go around saying that men have bigger brains. Yet men do seem to have women beat here; even when accounting for height and weight differences, men have slightly bigger brains. Does this mean they're smarter? Let's keep going.
In 2001, researchers from Harvard found that certain parts of the brain were differently sized in males and females, which may help balance out the overall size difference. The study found that parts of the frontal lobe, responsible for problem-solving and decision-making, and the limbic cortex, responsible for regulating emotions, were larger in women [source: Hoag]. In men, the parietal cortex, which is involved in space perception, and the amygdala, which regulates sexual and social behavior, were larger [source: Hoag].
Men also have approximately 6.5 times more gray matter in the brain than women, but before the heads of all the men out there start to swell, listen to this: Women have about 10 times more white matter than men do [source: Carey]. This difference may account for differences in how men and women think. Men seem to think with their gray matter, which is full of active neurons. Women think with the white matter, which consists more of connections between the neurons. In this way, a woman's brain is a bit more complicated in setup, but those connections may allow a woman's brain to work faster than a man's [source: Hotz].
If you're a lady still concerned about the size issues brought up in the first paragraph, let's address that now. In women's brains, the neurons are packed in tightly, so that they're closer together. This proximity, in conjunction with speedy connections facilitated by the white matter, is another reason why women's brains work faster. Some women even have as many as 12 percent more neurons than men do[/color] [source: Hotz]. In studying women's brains, psychologist Sandra Witelson found that those neurons were most densely crowded on certain layers of the cortex, namely the ones responsible for signals coming in and out of the brain. This, Witelson believed, may be one reason why women tend to score higher on tests that involve language and communication, and she came to believe that these differences were present from birth [source: Hotz].
But the density of women's neurons, much like the size of a guy's brain, isn't any sort of magic bullet for predicting intelligence. Scientists know this because they've conducted imaging studies on how men and women think. As we've said, men use gray matter, and women use white, but they're also accessing different sections of the brain for the same task. In one study, men and women were asked to sound out different words. Men relied on just one small area on the left side of the brain to complete the task, while the majority of women used areas in both sides of the brain [source: Kolata]. However, both men and women sounded out the words equally well, indicating that there is more than one way for the brain to arrive at the same result. For example, while women get stuck with a bad reputation for reading maps, it may just be that they orient to landmarks differently.[color=#770077] And as for intelligence, average IQ scores are the same for both men and women [source: Crenson].
But do we get to these IQ scores through nature or nurture? On the next page, we'll examine whether these different brain structures are set at birth, or whether they're shaped by the environment.
http://science.howstuffworks.com/life/men-women-different-brains1.htm

As in you had to copy paste a scientific journal to prove a point that hasn't been Ok-ed and accepted unanimously by scientists.

What you have just expressed didn't only defy nature and what we see in day to day activities, it stands in the same level with the theory of evolution.

How is a woman's brain faster ? That's sacrilegious !!! If a disaster strikes this minute....say a fire outbreak, or a bomb went off, or a robbery attack is imminent, a 40year old woman will INSTINCTIVELY, NATURALLY look up to a male for direction, even if that male were just 15yrs of age.

Where has a faster brain gotten women? Not in invention or science or technology

if i need to surf the web for scientific write ups to support the most ridiculous motion ever like gay and lesbians being ok, i'm sure to get a dozen pointing out SCIENTIFIC THEORIES how it came to be.

Please observe your environment, your society and daily interactions to post comments on this not lifting a scientific journal as your WHOLE basis of judgment. Forvwe all know science is anti nature.

This is what is seen in reality everyday and everywhere:

who are the most gullible ? Women.

Who are easily scamed, manipulated? Women.

Who fills up all the churches fake? Women.
Who are the bottom of the economic ladder ?

Your scientific journal never pointed out the vast difference between the emtional and logical difference between males and females.

Ah, sometimes, i feel the internet has become a lazy tool of information gathering. we are beginning to define research as surfing the web for anytgibg therein and neglecting observstion and real-time feed back.

babygirlfl: @ bolded does bigger brain equals more intelligent? At the moment, scientist say man's brain is bigger than a woman's brain.However, that does not translate to more intelligence. As for invention, they are things that were invented by women.For those interested in reading about the brain and gender. Please read http://science.howstuffworks.com/life/men-women-different-brains1.htm

what do you define as intelligence? Hope you aren't limiting it to academics. Because academics is just a fleck of drop in the ocean of intelligence. And believe me, baby, when it comes to ACADEMIC WISDOM OF LIFE. The average female don't come close to the average male.

Albert Einstein was discovered to have had a bigger than average potion of the part of the brain that handles stuffs like mathematics. So yes in brain size bigger may just mean better.

Women see and interprete life's situations from the emotional angle and sentimental sphere. So they are sympathetic and curious in situations where a male would be cautious and suspicions, need i add logical.

But who's blaming them? Only a fool! Because God in his wisdom infinite, made woman soft, tender and meek because of the child she's going to raise and the burden of the husband she going to support and help.

And he made the man hard, difficult and less easy to fall into cheap trickery because of the woman and family he's going to protect.

That's why God built women tough with lasting shock-absolver to cope with what a man really can't cope with.

When a woman loses sight of this simple wisdom and try and compete with the man, she only gets confused, unhappy, moody. No matter her material and intellectual acquirement.
Because the fulfilment of every woman, the unspeakeble and indescribable feeling of the joy of accomplishment, of having fulfill that burden of life of her womanhood rests on the the success of her role in her husband's calling and kingdom.

koyyes: Next time you want to express your opinion, never ever lie about yout religion or what christianity says about a woman's ministry . Because if you really are a christian,you would have known that-1. a christian woman can never place ordinary man above God in her ministry .2. Both women and men where created equally. qualities may differ here and there but it changes absolutely nothing ! If you are aquainted with what the scripture says about world events,you should have known that the changes that occured in 1945 has nothing to do with the presence of women who chose to work and put food on their family's table. Come up with something more reasonable than this feminist bull shiiit!

stop shooting off at the mouth!
Who says anything about a woman puting a man above God ?

And what's with me lying about my religion?
Now get this: man and women are joint heirs in the kingdom of God. But man and woman aren't equal. Only a 21 century ignoramus would think otherwise.
God created the man first gave him all the assignment and work to do on earth before he created the female from HIS ribs to act as his help meet. That was the only true assignment given to women directly by God.

That's why a married woman's first monistry is her husband.

In the old testament if a man makes a vow to God, he's bound to fulfill it.
If a waman makes a vow to God, her husband, if married or father if she's unmarried can repeal that vow within 24hours of it being made.

When God command all men to be circumcised -the only time he demanded the blood of humans rather than animals, it was a man's blood that was required. So the pain in the private part of the male and the blood spilt is replicated in the female when the husband deflowers his wife. He actually circumcised her.

Not all act of modernity is necessary or progressive. The lack of difference between the role and responsibility of the male and female is the crux of the fallen standard of Society today especially in the west where most of there women are she-men at best and sexless at worst.

Notice how in the Garden of eden, although Adam was created first but the snake didn't attempt to deceive him ? he patiently waited for the female and sweet talked her.

Did you notice how new churches are formed everywhere today ? They entice and deceive mainly the women and use the women to get the men.

Do you still notice how strangers and loners dupe women because of their curiosity ? Just like Eve was curious about what the snake had to say? Please, the average man looks at a stranger with suspicion and not curiously.

Google how europe slowly allowed women full franchise to vote. Prior to 1945, women weren't working in the west. Even some Western european countries allowes women full voting rights in the 70s and 80s.

I was in my 200 level law program in University of benin when it was announced great britain, one of the leaders of democracy and equal rights started allowing female lawyers the right to wear trousers in courts. And this was around year 2000/2001 And female judges are still referred to as your LORDSHIP.

Lastly, did you know why after Eve ate the forbidden fruit nothing happened? It was only After Adam ate it that there became consequences ?? And God came down?

There's a reason in the holy bible every man trace his generation to his father, even Jesus was traced to all his earthly fatherly line and back to God.
It's because Almighty God is a HE and men are the gods on earth. Women are meant to make that task, that noble task easier and smoother.

Scientists have proven that the size of the brain of the average male is bigger than that of the female.
So males are the inventors of technology, founder of towns, countries and communities, inventor of all the games. We just invite women to come and play later on.

Godmystrength: Okay. But is it only the woman that has a ministry? What is a married man's ministry

To his family which includes the wife at the heart of it and extends to the general society at large depending on his disposition.

Lagusta: Them try shaa....

Waiting for samsung note4 to break that record

when the galaxy S5 didnt even meet the record of S4 in the sales chart. SAMMY IS GOING DOWN.

tintingz: Whatever.

He's a pussified feminist.

all these foolish african femimist and lesbians who don't even know the meaning and implications of the word would be talking.

@ OP, please save us your feminist rantings. Man and women aren't the same and can never be.
For every good thing that came out of the West, female liberalisation isn't amongst them. Female empowerment has exposed and harmed women more than anything else.

Google the violent and molestation rate in the US and UK and your jaws would drop. Women had always had it better prior to World War 11 in 1945. Divorces were almost unheared of both in the west and in Africa. Women live longer and happier.

Then came 1945 when the war too out millions of men and women were brought in to work and fill up offices of men. We then witnessed the steady decline of homes and society

i hope your perverted feminist inclinations realise that the highest enviroment where infidelity takes place other than the internet is the office. Where another man's wife is put under the authority of a man who is her boss
and with time she obeys her boss first before her husband.

I don't know what your religious lining is but i'm a christian and i know that every married woman has a ministry and her first ministry is to her husband.

clean2: That guy is just a fake igbo wanna be . The igbo world wide council disowns him as one of our own . He is an american full blooded

Sorry to burst your post but i think female grabbing is home and normal within the socio-cultural psyche of the average Ibo.

I'm not trying to bring on ethnic sentiments here but if you live in the east you will continually see bus conductors physically drag females by the arm against their will to enter their buses. Sometimes two or three of these conductors will drag on a single female prospective passenger.

Also in markets males selling clothing items and other accessories do this too. It's a culture shock when i first learnt of it and it's only in the east i've seen this. And i've been around alot of places in Nigeria

PetroDolla3: you are talking like a foooooool. you think it is all about quoting bogus figures? now that you have quoted figures, let me tell you the reality of your magg0t existence. what is life expectancy in your sh1thole? how many people have access to electricity, clean water, food, roads, good schools, descent jobs (not kidnappings and all the sh1t you apes do in your sh1thole how many of you apes http://www.indepthnigeria.com/headlines/world-bank-did-not-say-nigeria-is-poor-it-said-extremely-poor-people-live-in-nigeria-presidency/ tell me about those statistics, ediot. at the end of the day, it is about the quality of life for the ordinary citizen. that is exactly what I want to hear, foooooooooooooooooooool hahahahah Federal Republic of Fooooooools paaaaaaaaaaaa

calm down and show some respect in your tone when talking to your superiors of which I'm one.

Ghana isn't and will never be in the maps. Reason. God didn't intend it.

You fool yourself when you quote statistics of sentiments. For we are Africa's richest biggest and brightest. Let me paint the true picture for you.
You say we don't have electricity but we manage to have the biggest economy in Africa, have over 130 million gsm subscribers. Has Africa's richest man. Africa's richest woman.

Mtn Nigeria is the richest gsm vendor in Africa. We have %76 percent of the economy of west Africa.

Biggest movie industry in Africa. Biggest music industry in Africa. Biggest oil producer in Africa.
Still the only African country to launch its own satellite in space. The only country in THE WHOLE WORLD TO launch its own electronic multi purpose personal i identity card. I can't keep counting all these for a country that was nothing by 1960.

But you swamp rat of a Ghanaian son, you are as nothing as your country is nothing before the international community. Ghana isn't bad, Ghana isn't good, she is just nothing. Nothing.

You wait on foreign aid to pass your yearly budget. Your entire country is run by aid and foreign donations.

You wear the cloak of an independent country and hide your begging bowl inside your Agbada cloths and beg to stay alive. You beg to live. Shame on you son that is lost to pride and dignity.

you couldn't pass the anti gay law because UK told you they will starve you to death. Modern slave of map-less region.

In Ghana owning a nairaland account is the fashion. I know I have massaged your stooping ego just cos I'm a nigerian willling to take time out to point out how wretched and insufferable you are.
sewer rat like you.

PetroDolla3: hahaha Ghana'economy is under a curse? Thank God it is only Ghana's economy that is under a curse because the last time I heard the nigerian state-including its economy- was said to be cursed! shitnigeria is cursed, says Obasanjo!
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BDO_hbsCEAAgKnd.jpg https://www.nairaland.com/1396280/obasanjo-nigeria-cursed-criticized-atiku

and where did you get this stvpid notion that yur pathetic country supplies electricity from kainja dam to Ghana? is that a joke or something? 120 million shitnigeraians don't have electricity and yet you supply electricity to Ghana, where 70% of the people enjoy regular power? you are truly phucked! get rid of the generator fumes messing up your tiny brain!

You just lack something meaningful to say. But you'll quote and make noise just for the sake of it.

Now listen, if a mere $30b economy is crashing and free falling then my correct guess is that you Petro dolla can't feed 3 times a day.
You say we are infected by generator fumes, I say your brain brain cells are bridging due to lack of nutrients.

Now, my midgets of a classless, map-less and irrelevant country, let your comparison with Nigeria end in football.

Do you compare a $520 to a $30b

Or 171million business men and women who has Africa's richest man and woman to a 25 million docile, unimaginative and laid back darker than dark

ghanains who has nothing to be proud of?

Or you compare Nollywood to- eh ghollywood (naija-wana-be).

Or the nigrian music industry to yours.

Or Lagos and Accra.

Or our rich international history of peacekeeping, donations and humanitarian aid to your uneventful lives.

Now go log out of here for this is Nigeria and go see if you can help your miserable country and country men from becoming our puppets and errand boys. Mugu

SmooshCHN: I think I'm the only one thinking this Ebola issue is a plot.

you're not. Me too.

mcino: Shaking my head for some ignorant posts here. There is no Ebola in Enugu. The woman is just on observation facility for having primary contact with the evil sawyer. It is not said anywhere that she has tested positive to it. Besides, it is only when the person has tested positive and is already down with it that he can infect others. Even if TNG woman later tests positive, she might likely not have given it to anybody.

yes she had tested positive to it. And its after 21 days we could know if she'd contaminated any one.

She's an embarrassment to the nursing profession too . She ought to have known better.

Giannakopoulos: FG quarantined her and she could still travel,then the word "quarantine" has to be redefined to us by this our unserious FG.

what a useless country.. the minister should resign and all those who are supposea

Little wonder African women rank low at the bottom of women of other races.

I've always said natural hair looks and sits more beautiful on an african women than those fake excuse for hair, but insecurity and self deceit won't let them see.

There's just this special feel when u weave your hand through your woman's scalp as her NATURAL hair glides through your finger.

Or when you bend down to kiss-peck the top of their Head and the nice smell and and warmth of the real hair hits you so refreshingly.

You take an African woman to the beach and she covers her hair with a cellophane or shower cap to save her piece of fake hair.
Her counterpart of other races will let their hair loose and free.

How un-romantic and materialistic is the African woman.

Fresia01: in Psycholinguistics,, it is asserted dat those who are right handed are more intelligent and live longer than those who are left handed... buh i have actually seen left handed people who are more intelligent than dia right handed counterparts!!!! left handed guys are sexy!!! majid,.Mike Ezuronye, Micheal Scufield,, john Dumelo jus to mention buh a few ,,, proudly right handed!!!

left handed people are just 10% of the population yet they consisted more than 45% in designing the Macintosh operating system and are in considerable number in NASA.

Sweetlemon: In a hurry to show your hatred for Sweetlemon? hehehehehehehe. I would have cared then. But now I either ignore or give you lemon juice to drink.

But make I keep my distance abeg. You may be another 14 year old. *cringes

I think i shall prefer your lemon to your literary efforts.

Sweetlemon: English please!

sorry, my bad. Hasty typos. You can check the modified version above.

Sweetlemon: I am creating awareness not condemning. Dummy!

So using Ghana as an example of a country that has been able to avoid by being more careful is condemning to you? Are you sure you are ok?



Wallahi! If I insult you, you will report me to the mods. You have been warned.

My dear, please pay no heed to them, especially the ones who dubbed you a fool. You are not a fool.
You are one who lacks pride, refinement and worth. Your hunger for attention is far greater than your sense of objectivity
You crave attention and lack the literary and logical prowess to accompany your quest.

I have followed your post on this topic as guest. But I had to log in after failing to urge to remain as an observer.

For your posts so far on this, you deserve to be taken to a public square and be horse-whipped.

Say no more.

Yungwizzzy: I went for counseling with my fiancee for our supposed marriage which was supposed to be in Nov

suddenly yesterday her pastor asked for my Facebook and my email password

the rest is history...





no more marriage

ah! So you're among those men who a woman drags to church for her pastor to be scritinised to see if he's qualified. To top ot off, he demanded for your facebook password and you handed it over? You aren't ready to be a man yet.

Of all our 16 or 15 west african neighbours it's only ghana that envy nigeria and are reluctannt to pay their respect due to us and our sacrifices we've been making for the entire region.

cindelite: Damn guy....take it easy now , while everything you said is true i think you could've put it in a less insulting way for the guy, have fear of God pls

CrudeGH: now I know what your problem is. you are one of those ill-informed, misguided shitnigerians,huh? yes, Ghana buys natural gas from your sh1thole just as other countries buy from you magg0ts,huh? the gas is used to generate electricity. natural gas is not the same as electricity under the agreement signed by 4 countries, including your dustbin country, as well as the world bank and other oil companies, if shitnigeria defaults in supplying gas to recipient countries then it is liable to pay a fine. that was what happened. I reckon you apes don't know what they call contractual obligations,huh? abi that one istoo much for your tiny brain to absorb?

as a ghanaian you are my inferior. As a ghanaian your country is so so poor, your president is crying to IMF to feed you malnutritious sewer punk. As a ghanaian pls know that your country has slided from LOWER middle income country to LOW income country.

During the last ecowas submit in Abuja, your president acclaimed what everyone knows: there's no west africa without Nigeria.

One governor in nigeria equals the president of ghana and lagos state alone is economically and politically more relevant and significant than ghana as a country. Your greatest achievement as a ghanaian is to own a Nairaland account and share in the greatness of Nigeria. You irrelevant, inconsequential citizen of a nation that is the bottomless dregs of the commitee of nations.

PetroDolla3: it does not change the fact that shitnigeria is a dustbin country. there is hardly any good news coming from your dustbin country,huh? at least this will cheer you monkeys up till boko haram throws the next bomb. modafaka!

wetin concern agbero with overload? are you people not supposed to be looking for more than 100 gals in the Sambisa forest or some miserable place? hahahaha

shUt up, you swamp rat. I've bEen expecting your trophyless arses eversince, slowpoke. Tell me, what were you doing reading a Nairaland post entitled "Nigeria finishes 8th on commomwealth gmes" ? Like a magnet you are drawn to anything nigeria. Go re-read your pposts you speak exactly our brand of pidgin english. Slave boy of a ghanaian descent. Bloody naija-wanna-be. Iiddiiot.

iamord: sometimes I try to bypass foolish post like this. if u are well informed you will not be blabbing rubbish.. I am a ghanaian and I pray for bokoharam to stop and for the girls to come home.. Was it not ghanians that also joined hands in the streets of accra to do the bring back our girls?? Did ghanaians not join to flood twitter and other social networks with the bring back our girls theme?? Even some ghanaians on my twitter handle still use the name bring back our girls, did ghana not want to send army to nigeria to help ..I guess we hate nigeria that's why we took this decisions.. stop spilling bs..

sending army into Nigeria to help? You mean they are going to be kitted, paid and all accessories supplied by Nigeria.

Ironi: And how is Nigeria relevant, for all the Negative reasons? ....Boko Haram... and all the killings ?

You sef .

we are talking about economic power, political relevance and international consequences. Ghana is at the very bottom of the pile. Go ask your president.

datguru: never a dot. check. I only booked space and modified it to some thing reasonable after reading

you needn't book a space with a dot. And the first to comment is so disgustingly childish.

No one is mentioning intelligence gathering,logistics and sufffisticated information gathering. These are the most inportant in combating insurgence and terrorists. And the truth is the nigerian army and police are bereft of these aforementioned qqualities. It mirrors the state of most government agencies in the country. From court magistrates and judges still taking hand notes at trials to a police force with little intelligence above touts and agberos.....

Liberia, somalia and sierra leon were good old conventional wars which required little inteLligence. Boko is akind of warfare that puts the intelligence and suffistication of an army institution to the test. And the ,Nigerian army have failed...big time.

Hmn,these governors and majority of the poLitical class reek of either ignorance or misguided authority. Whoever told him he has such powers to order shoot at sight. This is how they encourage extra judicial killings within the police and other law agencies. If memory serves me right, bokohara was just a bunch of ill motivated , cutlass and dane gun wielding lots till the coward police did what they do best- kill extra judicially and succeeded in revolutionising the whole group.

How would the police determine who is a cultist? What happened to the law of prosecuting them? Is this not encouraging the police killing innocents and displaying weapons on their corps and lebelling them cultist? Why do nigerian rulers always look for the easy apprach in solving problems?

If you check my post, I never said israel or palastine was right or wrong. Israel motive and issues as well as that of her arab neighbours has always been religiously historical. That's why it's so difficult.quote author=datribune]

On dis issue, south africa's position is on point. I daresay dat d position of south africa is d position of d UN & d world. Israel's saving grace has always been d USA veto at d security council. Israel is a rogue state dat has for 47yrs violated UN & world opinion by continuing wit d occupation, dispossession,
expulsion & denial of d rights of d Palestinian people. Let's be clear d Palestinian struggle is not a TERRORIST/MUSLIM/RELIGIOUS issue. It will be naive & unfair to compare d Palestinian struggle wit d BH senseless carnage. It is a just struggle against an illegal LAND GRAB by zionists.[/quote]

datribune: At one time in our history under d leadership of d great Murtala Mohammed, nigeria's voice was d voice of Africa. Her foreign affairs had a rich moral content wit a central theme of supporting all oppressed people everywhere in d world. We supported freedom fighters in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Angola, Mozambique & PALESTINE. This did not go unnoticed by d entire world & we were made d head of d UN commission on anti-apartheid. Sadly, today Nigeria's voice is muted when it comes to issues of justice, freedom & equality. Today, d hierarchy has been revised wit South Africa showing d world dat it is d moral leader of Africa. South Africa has shown dat it is a nation wit a sense of history & morality. It will not support a nation whose guiding ideology is racism, zionism & apartheid. Israel is a rogue state dat continues to violate UN resolutions. Surely wit dis noble action South Africa has shown dat it is ably qualified to speak for Africa. Africa is not gullible. Africa remembers dat during d anti-apartheid struggle, Mandela & d ANC were labelled terrorists. Africa knows dat d Palestinian struggle is not a TERRORIST/MUSLIM/RELIGIOUS issue. It is a just struggle against an illegal LAND GRAB by zionists.

that's the problem. People assume and equate the icon Mandela to the country southafrica. The anc of southafrica is neck deep in coruption and has no moral voice whatsoever. Southafrica as a country is just doing cheap talk to attract publicity and attention. The issue in israel is beyond most countries of europe, let alone southfrica. Southafrica is like a child learning to run before it could walk. She understands nothing about international politics or foreign policy and acts as a novice in world affairs.
Remeber how she was supporting ghadaffi and was like as lone schizophrenic voice in the wilderness? That was ghadafi that was setting up dispute in some african countries. Remeber the ivory coast election problem, where the laurent gbabo, the sitting president lost and refused to step down? Again southafrica was the lone mad voice supporting anarchy. And even positioned a war ship in ivory coast waters. The same thing happenend in the mali crisis. The anc asking israeli ambassador to leave is a clear case of international politics of destitution and inexperience. Southafrica's oppinion don't count and their voice meant nothing when international oppinions would be sorted. Middle east issue is out of the league of southafricagg. [quote author=datribune]

Akbee: im longing for a time when Nigeria wl deal with its enemies(boko haram) in such a way dat they wl come begging for forgiveness.. the hamas militia started it hence they must not run away from it.i do support the war although civilians have bn made to be at the receiving end of the whole drama..ITS A NECESSARY WAR!!
The Isrealis Govt don't take shits from its enemies especially the Arab world which houses the most tryannts n bloodthirsty people in the world..osama,bin laden,ghadaffi,to mention but a few...they(hamas militia group) shud av realised dat before they fired the first rocket into Gaza thereby puting the lives of civilians at risk..
by the way,why are the ANC members so bent on having the Isrealis ambassador recalled by his country when they are fully aware dat such move wl not cause a stir neither wl it mk the Israelis army stop launching rocket into Gaza..OF WHAT SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC, POLITICAL,SOCIAL use IS SOUTH AFRICA TO ISREAL?.is its dia diamond or wot?Mandela only fought for a just cause(aparthied).he neva allowed anoda man*s biz to become sth of great concern to him..its obvious dat they are embarking on a mission which wl produce nothing positive result...just watch out for the major headlines of most South African newspapers by next month n u wl see sth like **SA ANC APOLOGISE TO ISREALIS FOR UNGUIDED UTTERANCE N LIBEL OVER CRISIS IN GAZA+++
them no get things to do with their time..

I can't imagine the relevance of southafrica in world affairs. This shouldn't make even back page read list. I wonder. Southafrica obviously don't even know the direction of its foreign policy, if it has any. Attention seeking country.

size38: Where are those Igbo rats that always shout here on NL that if any bomb goes off in any part of Igbo land that Naija will be history? Where are they? Boko Haram is knocking on ur door now. The first bomb has gone off let's see what happens from here.

shutup. Don't derail the thread or turn into a tribal e-war.
