She was destined to experience the US. Her destiny could not be stopped.

"It is much safer to be feared than loved because ...love is preserved by the link of obligation which, owing to the baseness of men, is broken at every opportunity for their advantage; but fear preserves you by a dread of punishment which never fails."

-Niccolo Machiavell

The above is corroborated by Robert Greene (in Law 1) of the 48 Laws of Power.

I helieve him. It is why we must fear God (and love him as well), and keep His commandments. Solomon calls it "the whole duty of man!"

I see....
I just believe that in this life, if it is written that you'll make it, you will eventually; it doesn't matter what you do.

I don't know much about the authenticity of this news medium (voice news) but if the statements therein are truly credited to Chinamanda, then the blackrace really has a long way to go. Nomatter how educated or socially acclaimed a black man (or woman) is, sentiment and primordial considerations will always take preeminence and front row in his/her views, stance and opinions. This is why other continents have left Africa behind in the race of development.

Only their own can do right. You dare not speak against even their criminals, they will come for you. Yet, they are always the first to accuse others of bigotry!

They've been pampering criminals in this country. No terrorist can pillage any area in saner climes for this long...they will exterminate them. If we talk now, they will say Ribadu is trying.

How can a group of people hold a country to ransom? No military general should be allowed to remain in office if any part of his domain is under siege for this long!

Anyway, the President is trying to win a second term. If he opens all the barracks and bombs the hell out of them, they'll say he is killing Northerners.

It is well with this country.

what has Jesus got to do with it. You can't stop people from saying their mind

Yet, Jesus is Lord! Accept Him today and stay blessed!

Dizzyyish:
I just went through a thread from a few days ago about saving a mother's life during a delivery over the child. That's the gist of the thread. For those who haven't read it:
https://www.nairaland.com/8485590/anything-goes-wrong-during-labor

Whilst reading, it wasn't the subject matter that I found interesting, but rather the replies from guys on the thread. The female in question had stated that in the event of some complication during childbirth her life should be prioritised over the child - and there was an overwhelming verdict that she was right. She's technically right though, but you see that's what's interesting about it...

Did her statement sound logical? Yes, it did. Rather, to be precise, her statement coincides with logic. What's interesting is the (supposed) oversight on the part of the male commenters. There was no mistake in trying to ascertain the logic in what was said, but the issue is that they didn't deem it necessary to go further and ask themselves "Where is this statement coming from exactly?"

Woman is inherently selfish, thus solipsistic. She can have no true/sincere input without a motive, and if there is no motive it's because it doesn't appeal to her, and if it doesn't appeal to her then it doesn't concern her to begin with. Woman does not do anything that doesn't benefit her in some shape or form. She sees only self and cannot fixate her sight on what is past self. As a consequence, woman is anti-logical as logic demands an objective view upon what is outside of oneself first and foremost.

When whatever comes out of a woman's mouth coincides with logic it's actually just a Trojan horse of selfishness (though they don't see it that way). It looks like the gift of logic and sound reasoning on the outside, and on the surface that's good enough. You let them wheel this horse past the walls of your city---into your mind, and then, it is not until the dark of night---in hindsight---do you see a small battalion of soldiers quietly springing forth from within the horse to slit the throats of their enemies in their sleep does it then become apparent that this "gift" had always been self-serving; that this gift was not an ends itself - but, as always, a means to an end.
This is how women use a man's logic against him and turn him into a tool to serve her wants and whims.

It's no different from how women say they want a really sweet, caring guy, who is nice and respects them. Though they speak from feelings of the moment, it does sound logical to men. Why wouldn't they want a nice guy who respects them? Why would a man listen to woman if what she said didn't, at first, sound logical?
So you listen and don't think to look beneath the surface... Until you start seeing a disconnect between what you've been told and what you're seeing. If you then decide to apply wisdom by disregarding what women say and start doing what actually works you'll see an even bigger disconnect. You'll start, for instance, noticing that their natural craving for drama and emotional stimulation is not even compatible with that respect which they claim to want.
Because at the kernel of their words and "logic"---in making you a beta/simp, in this example---is something tailored solely for their benefit.

The child, like woman, is neither logical nor rational; hence, when presented with a statement that seems built on logic, one ought to always ask themselves "What are they peddling (to me)?" If you ask yourself this question in truth, and deduce their angle/pov in the matter, then, you'll be surpised on how you'll begin to see the feelings and self-serving prompts in their "logic".

Look deeply upon any woman or at the below picture even. Does this look like a creature of truth, capable of logic and of magnanimity?

Great piece! I'll turn it into a thread and acknowledge you.

The men team have a thing or two to learn from them. Congratulations!

She might have become through malpractice too...it's the only viable explanation.

It doesn't matter jor. What matters now is to accept Jesus as one's Lord and personal Savior.

You see... Anywhere they go, peace must depart from there. Jesus only is Lord!

President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu contested against a sitting vice president, senate president; he contested against a sitting CBN Governor, against his party chairman; cabals in the presidency worked tirelessly against him, all efforts were made to make him lose the election but he came out victorious. Now, the same man is the sitting President and some politicians who cannot win their ward for their party feel it will be easy to send him packing? They’ve made all their moves, the master is watching and smiling. The next move by the master strategist will throw them into a total confusion. As far as I’m concerned, 2027 will be easier for PBAT than 2023. We are all here!😁

Except, of course, he chooses not to run.

Hmmm...Public university lecturers are a case. The only way is to have a CGPA above 4.6; that way, you are safe.

grandstar:
I think Buba Marwa would do a better job.

The man would be over stretched. Marwa is the only public servant I trust wholeheartedly!

I see him as a terrible National Security Advisor. Look at the rate of kidnapping and killings on a daily basis! I disagree with Reno completely on this.

Of course, it's a business strategy. The shop owner knows what it takes!

The Manipulated Man by Esther Vilar corroborates this claim.

kingthreat:
Women like these dey tire me. You think because you are married to man, it is by force that you must stay married? His family didn't like you before the marriage, is it when you are married they will suddenly love you?
For you both to be in the same house and not talk for one year, what makes you think the marriage is still in tact? You chose not to do anything to make your marriage work but now you're here crying foul because the man chose to seek happiness elsewhere. Abeg let us rest. Marriage is not by force. If it doesn't work, you move on.

She would have preferred he stayed unhappy under the same roof more years. She didn't cry out then. It is now that he's moved on she is crying wolf.

Klass99:
Is this for real? There must be something about Tuface that makes some women love and accept him in spite of his relationship history.

He must have some kind of star boy quality in him because I still like him too as a person and a music artiste.

None of his shenanigans has dimmed my fondness of him, maybe it has do with the very first impressions he made on me with his grass to grace album and the one after that.

No...it has to do with what is called "herd mentality" inherent in most women and children. They are attracted to what is loved by others.

Exactly! It predates Tinubu. All the Northern leaders heretofore must be held to account.

There are Yoruibo a new tribe in Nigeria. The mix children of yoruba and ibo marriage

Please take a moment to write a quality post with at least 40 characters.
This will make the forum more interesting for everyone.

He monetized the National Assembly. Ebora Owu himself!

Poormanpikin:
Nigerians never get tired of suffering...see how these ignoramuses are celebrating another corrupt individual in a failed party.

I weep for this country.

Nentawe is a solid material.

MufasaLion:
Very commendable. Let the wailers keep wailing. The Awujale deserved whatever honor bestowed on him posthumously.

This is wrong. Why would he strip Tai Solarin of the honour?

dalongjnr:
Crazy place to live on.
Apart from the high class girls that walk around with STIs,quit but Crazy neighbourhood.
Nothing entice me about that place.
You can only enjoy island from November to April, after that back to the mainland.
That's the beauty of having houses in both places.
Flex island in dry season, enjoy mainland in wet season 😎.
Above all, there's no place sweeter than abuja and jos.
Most especially,that jos! Cold, cheap,safe places to hangout, good international schools,good roads, good parks and zoo for weekend Getaway, quite streets in rayfield, new abuja,du gura top,federal low-cost dong etc,but the beauty of the woman in jos is breath taken. Well cultured,calm, respectful, romantic and very nice.
Abuja is also very sweet,wild,a bit expensive but the traffic congestion is an issue for me.

No money in Jos...you must bring your money with you to enjoy Jos. Those areas you mentioned are expensive.

AngelahFlo:
I disagree
There's no evidence that his fathers went the way he went so let's just treat his case as exclusively his.

Don't mind me jare

If it had been Adesina vs The Gbajue Coroner himself, we would see a different result!

He tamed the Atlantic Ocean

Make them free her oooo...he has gone the ways of his fathers, and his fathers before him.

Wrestling power from Tinubu will be equivalent to being rescued from kidnappers and handed over to armed robbers.
