dewaskillz:
Nice gesture. I believe if women are given more opportunities they will be better in governance

How so? What made you come to that conclusion?

Where did their judgement take Nigeria to? Nowhere. They are no different from their male counterparts. We like to deceive ourselves too much. No law in Nigeria prohibits females from going for whatever position or office they aspire to hold or pursue through education. The girls that cry about females not being in positions are the lazy ones that want to eat their cake and have it. They want to be at the helm of affairs or at the top of top institutions without working for it. They just want to make a lot of money with little effort. Go and work like the men and you should be fine. Many women that are serious have made it and will continue to make it.

Apart from Bob being a disgusting human, you don’t go around uploading people’s pictures/videos without their consent

What law is that?

E no concern anybody though..

Even though the lady gave me a child that is not mine, I would not let any evil befall the child..

My anger should be on the lady herself.
And not on the baby.

Easy to say from the comfort of your keyboard.

Some Nigerians are ridiculous, especially the girls (like the so called saphiere) and guys (if they actually are) that are angry that Deji said that. It's the best thing you can do for yourself. The only time you should not be worried is when the child looks like you. If they do, it's definitely yours. If not, you can do the test.
An alleged human being even said they should do low sperm count so women don't cheat. So if she cheats, it's because of the man? You guys need to go for therapy. You all need help.
The worst thing is for your wife to have a child for another man and you raise the child thinking it's yours. It's better to die than to raise a child that you didn't know wasn't yours.
For the price, it's expensive because it's rarely done in Nigeria, if it's adopted by many, surely, it's going to destroy a lot of marriages (which is not good but is the right thing), but it'll drive the price down and become cheap.
This should be something that all should be encouraged immediately after your wife delivers and if you can afford it, go for it. Don't be raising people's children because of your wife's infidelity.

That's a monitor lizard. People eat that in most countries. Even in Nigeria, It's sold in many places.

NwadykExcel:
This feels true.
In the Catholic Church, women can't perform mass.
It'd be nice to know why.

Some of you stop thinking with your heads in order to push your agenda. Every religion has its tenets. In most religions, men are leaders and women are helpers. So, by that very fact, the Priests lead mass. There's absolutely nothing wrong there and if you don't agree with the faith, you are free to not be a Catholic/Christian. You can have whatever agenda you want but don't expect others to bend to your will. No one can alter the doctrines of their faith, if they do, then it's no longer the same faith. Leave religion alone, most of you guys aren't even religious, so why the noise about the church?

Miss kwekweye

ah ah, na you name am?

Nice one

Did the magistrate court not know that they had no authority to issue such an order? Nigeria self.

Tetrahedron:
This should not be encouraged at all!
Just take a look at his profile- he is a serial poacher!

What Nigerian law are you quoting? My friend, if it's not a law in Nigeria, it's irrelevant in Nigeria and not poaching any crap.

Mr. man, feel free to eat the animals, don't mind all the holier than thou animal activists. There's no reason you can't eat basically any animal, and you have committed no offense. The noise they are making is about laws that jobless people pushed for in other countries that have nothing better to do. They are not Nigerian laws and as a result, they do not matter. These people love animals more than humans, so ignore them. They are just making noise. People in different countries eat different animals. Eat and be merry.

Is it that people and the mods can't see the topic/title? Is the English correct? And many people are just misusing "profit" and it's different forms here.

And we are just watching them

United Noble Rescue Service, not United Nations.

kendrick93:
Quack doctors demanding better pay..
laughable
Most Nigerian doctors are useless anyway,
so many deaths could have been averted if we had competent medical practitioners..

If the hospitals were properly funded, they would be able to save more lives. They are underpaid for their services and yet you're blaming them. In other countries, they are well paid and hospitals are well funded so they do well there and more/most lives are saved there. You need to see Nigerian medical doctors abroad, they do so well there. They do the best they can here in Nigeria. They are not magicians.

Take your time and do the needful.

What were they even charged with or on bail for? Indeed, there was a country.

Dead men tell no tales.

Magnoliaa:
Thisss...

Common sense and deductive reasoning...
Sexism against women is a fact, and you'll find countless researches and stats showing how it plays how. Surely you'll have the demography of Black men (and women) contributing to that phenomenon. Gender-based violence; overt and covert sexism; prejudices and so much more have come to define women's lives all over — is it non-Black men that are subjecting POC (and white women alike) to such degradation?
My scope wasn't on African-American men per se in my original comment that black men lord over women and then cry about racism, but here are findings for you below since you singled them out.

One.

Another...

And another.

The screenshots below is among, and lastly, you can search for and download "we real cool" by bell hooks, detailing the experiences of black men. (their interactions with their women is scattered throughout the book, but chapters 4, 5 and 6 focuses a larger deal on them).

I'm aware it's been days you requested, still... they are not just stats, but qualitative data as well.

In earnest, how does this show black men lord over black women as it shows that both the men and women are affected? It doesn’t really specify anything other than just the percentage, no other factors are put into consideration here. The research is just a compilation of numbers and I don’t think it has enough information to draw conclusions from. By your judgement, one can also say black women lord over men without having to provide information.

Magnoliaa:
I kind of find this problematic, even though I may see where you're coming from. Imagine you were driving in the latest car as a magnate and internationally recognized personality, and you saw a little beggar boy, unkempt and just fitting into that stereotypical model, and he came up to you for anything- is it right for you to treat him with respect, empathy and such even he's not in a position to offer anything? Or just about anybody in a disadvantaged state... it is right to kill them, use them, deny them education and the likes simply because they just do not have things to bargain for respect?

Remember you said, "earned." That's different from asking women and men to respect each other.

Respect is different from the scenario you just gave. And by earned, if you give respect, you get respect. You can't just be there and expect to get respect when you don't give one. That's just what I mean. And tbh, I don't get how or where the men doing so to the women happens or comes from. Never seen that, at least, as far as I know. Can you point to any stats on that?

Magnoliaa:
Racism and sexism are bad and should be eradicated. Black men should not be sexist to women while expecting to be treated as equal by other races.

It goes both ways. The women don't treat the men any better. Respect is earned if I'm not mistaken. The black women typically in the US have little to no respect for the black men, that's why the family unit isn't working for them. They have to know that you need to give it to get it.

Magnoliaa:
You don't even get her point?

Black men cry when they face racism from white people, but think they can be lords and judges over women's issues.

Where did you get the idea that black men are lords/judges over women? Pls, provide evidence. If you truly travel abroad, you'll see especially in the black communities, about 77% of the families have no man in the house. The women control the men outside. The families are messed up. And the idea that black men cry racism alone is incorrect. Both black men and women cry racism in the US.

nnamdizen:
Thanks for the brief, other than the thrill of having a child from a backdated egg, personally I see no sense in egg freezing when better and healthier ones are formed after a menstrual cycle.


Human egg no be bottle of wine na! Haba

Eggs aren’t formed during or after a menstrual cycle. All eggs are already present before birth in girls/women. They are just undergoing meiosis at different stages of development. Unlike men that produce sperm every time, women don’t produce any eggs after birth. Technically all eggs are old by the time they are fertilized.

SeriouslySense:
How are you different from Sars with such statement.

Many of them are as barbaric as SARS. You don't lynch someone because of opposing views or simply because you disagree with them. If you try that in a sane climate, you'll be locked up for a long time. If you have an argument, bring it to the table instead of talking about flogging him.

Xisnin:
Fighting the government is not an achievement.
Mugabe and Oshiomole fought the government in their day.
How did they turn out?

Oshiomole didn't fight the government. He fought his opposition. He was always a snake and will forever be a snake. Sowore has been fighting since his university days. He has fought almost all regimes. He never picked any side and kept quiet when things weren't going well. He always spoke out. He has tried riling up the youths for a long, long time. We were just not ready until now. And the #EndSARS protest is a very commendable movement but that's not enough. They've dissolved SARS but people are still chanting #EndSARS. His movement would have been the best because it is/was vague enough to cover basically every issue. He should at least be respected for that. He should never be prevented from participating in anything. He has every right to protest just like every other citizen so pushing him is a No No.

Tonitoniton:
U dont have to let sentiments becloud ur reasoning.

Sowore is one of the major reason Nigeria is where he is today because of his hatred for Jonathan.

What so ever he is doing now to redeem his image is nothing compare to the damage done through his support for the fulani herdsman in aso rock.

All of his ilks should be treated the same to avoid further evil from fostering in the land.


SOWORE AND HIS LIKES MUST APOLOGISE TO NIGERIANS FIRST LIKE SHAGARI SON DID TO SHOW THEY HAVE REPENTED FROM THEIR WICKEDNESS AND EVIL WAYS

Jonathan was no better. Things were getting pretty bad later during his tenure. The dollar exchange rate increased from N150 to N170 then to N201/$1. Corruption was the order of the day under him. He was able to mask it all because of the crude oil price at that time. Don't be fooled. This would have happened eventually. Buhari is just as incompetent as GEJ, even more so.
And for those saying Sowore is a politician, so therefore, it's a negative thing, you're all misguided. In order to hold any position of authority/government, one must be a politician. We can't sit back and leave politics. We need to infiltrate the parties or better still create a new one like what Sowore did. He didn't join APC or PDP. He went ahead and created a party. If we don't infiltrate, we'll still be left with the same old people. That's why Sowore joined politics in order to fight them since that'll be the most effective way to do so. But you all are against him for being against an incompetent tenure like every other tenure. He has good intentions and revolution now is for our own good.

Turantula:
APC Zombie on the beat

I know you have difficulty comprehending things but I don't support APC in any manner of means. I'll rather die than vote for anyone in APC. What have they done for us to make me vote for them? I never voted for them and never will.

Karleb:
Chai! Why did I duplicate your comment.

Had I seen this reply before commenting, I wouldn't have.

Only people who followed the protest live or on twitter can understand this.

Sowore is a traitor, an hindrance to this present generation success.

How is he a traitor and a hindrance?

Go and watch videos, he was there for several days, not just yesterday. Common sense suggests that #Endsars alone is not enough. He probably thought it would end there. He was only trying to use the opportunity to do more with the same straw. But the people misjudged him. There might be other motives but I can't tell. Regardless, this is not enough reason to treat him this way.

You think Sowore will have time to post opinions here? This is not Sowore. I'm a long time viewer on Nairaland. I never bothered to make an account until I saw the video. I wanted to air my thoughts on the matter but there's no way to vent if you don't register on the site.
