kingxsamz: Alright then. Do you believe that dinosaurs existed millions of years ago? And the earth is billions of years old?
There are fossils of animals, called dinosaurs that have been found yes. Their dates are still subject to scientific debates. And the timeline of the earth being in millions of years is still, scientifically, unproven.
There are many archeaological discoveries that validates many writings in the Bible. From the Dead Sea Scrolls that contained the texts of Moses and discoveries about Judah, the City of Refuge, the Cave of Adullam, etc. Why do you think UNESCO had several world heritage sites in present-day Syria, Iraq and Iran? That you dont like it doesn't mean that these discoveries are not there.
kingxsamz: Watch how people display their stupidity on this thread. These same folks who have refused anything that has to do with millions of years would jump on this to claim that it validates some books about talking snakes and talking donkeys. What some mofos don't know is that certain stories in the bible are based on real places that were present at the time it was written.. Same way the spiderman movie is based on a location, New York. But sadly, people don't think.
SmartProf: Amazing stuff. In the world of intellectuals, there is nothing like 'school na scam'. Very superb innovation I must say...Unfortunately, some misguided persons think they can climb into Forbes list as ritualists and fraudsters, without knowing that progressive wealth has no short cut.
Thank you. Quite happy to see comments like this that resonates with my thinking. In the world of intellectuals, there’s nothing like “school na scam”.
The bribery process, which is the unofficial part of every public procurement and bidding process in Nigeria, has actually worked in Nigeria's favour. The case is not yet over it seems. It has only bought more time.
themaestro08: Bro which is a better course, political science or sociology?
Sociology. Sociologists are in high demand today than ever before. We needed a sociologist for an engineering research project and couldn’t submit a proposal without one. Most research and industry demands a multidisciplinary approach which is good for sociologists.
Again, a sociologist can do what a political science fellow can do; but a political science graduate would not be accepted for a sociologist role.
justebuka: Please can i get your whatsapp number?? For info
I’m sorry, I no more give that out. I currently mentor students (asides the ones I supervise and teach at MSc and PhD level) and absolutely have no time. I wouldn’t have been writing this if not for “working from home”. However, I’ve put down answers here as much as I could, in many threads.
themaestro08: Bro what thread is that? Its good to know you graduated with flying colours
Not my strength, not any so-called intellect. It was only through the help of God.
My point is that, while there are certainly courses that looks like worthless in the Nigerian environment, hardwork on that course— earning a 1st or High 2.1— with attendant skills will make you rise to a position that would seem to flatter you. I’ve met many Nigerian graduates who are unable to string a simple paragraph in a critical essay. Or enable to understand the simple issues of macroeconomics, geopolitics or even climate change/sustainability. That is mediocre and even if you have an excellent result, you are likely to remain in a mediocre market.
justebuka: Urgent: Please All Gradauate Of sociology Where Are You Working Now
am a student of uniport dep of sociology I initially wanted law b4 waec then i changed my min during jamb Please how good is sociology and as a graduate where are you working And which jobs is promising to us
Work extremely hard. I wrote in some thread before, the steps I took to make a 1st Class. Make a 1st Class. Engage in writing publications and articles during your 1st degree. Go for a Masters. I'm certainly sure you will get a scholarship. Write and publish during your Masters. You will earn a PhD scholarship with that.
Then come back to this thread and write your experience.
Finnese001: Ojota Protest: I Will Not Join You To Protest, Nigerians Trust President Buhari
The recent increase in the price of fuel to N151.56 per litre by the federal government has been generating reactions among Nigerians who have planned to stage a protest tomorrow at the Ojota to drive home their demands.
One inquisitive Nigerian who want to know if aide to president Buhari on social media, Lauretta Onochie will join them in protest tomorrow just as she did when the APC and some Nigerians protested fuel price increase during the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan, got this reaction from her:
“No I will not be Joining you and for good reasons too. Not sure you can understand but I'll try
If the subsidy was removed in 2012, the savings would have gone into private pockets Looted
Today, Nigerians have a President they trust. The recovered subsidy, would serve Nigerians” Some Nigerians on social media have been trending various hashtags in preparation for a protest march since the current increase in the price of fuel was announced. A protest march at Ojota has been planned for tomorrow.
How can you protest against a regime you are part of? Meanwhile, where is NLC? Those days these guys would have grounded the entire country with a protest.
Berryli: Few weeks to my 25th birthday, last year, I ran into my Neighbour and we exchanged numbers, then the chatting began, we became friends and he offered to take me out on my birthday but It didn't happen.
Fast forward to the lockdown, I would go visit him we would chat and he appreciated my company as he was alone. He eventually started to make moves, getting all touchy which got me a little surprised and uncomfortable since as friends that was improper, which got me thinking if he wants more than friendship.
He has a great career, intelligent and all but not my spec, and I'm not attracted to him. We are very different people, socially and even our views about life. I enjoy his company but that's all there is. As a result if I use to visit twice in a week, I reduced it to once in two weeks and eventually monthly, and reduced the chats just to not give him the wrong impression.
He stylishly refer to me in future as his wife. What do I do? Is he starting to have feelings for me and how do I stylishly turn him down since he hasn't asked me out or do i wait for him to do so? cos there are people who just draw close and start dating without d while toasting stuff or is it just his flesh loosing control, which I doubt cos I try to be as decent as possible wen visiting him.
Do I just go with the flow since I'm currently not in a relationship? But won't that be me deceiving him and myself cos I don't like him in that way. or I'm over thinking the whole thing?
Tell him you are not interested. Be clear and blunt. It is evident that he likes you and wants more than friendship.
PUSSYHOE: Every guy feels this exciting, joy and enthusiasm before sex but immediately after, it is the opposite of all the feelings before it.
I ain't concluding, it may not be so for other guys. Even so Can someone explain why some of us few like that? Even with the girls I love wholeheartedly I still feel like that with them. is it a biological, psychological or emotional problem? and what is the remedy?
Because it is called fornication. A sin against God and against your body.
Edo 2020: PDP installs digital billboard to broadcast Oshiomhole’s attestation on Obaseki’s credibility
As part of its campaign strategy, the Edo State Chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has installed electronic billboard to broadcast the former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole’s attestation to the credibility and integrity of Governor Godwin Obaseki during the 2016 governorship election campaign in the state.
The South-South acting chairman of the party, Dan Orbih, commissioned the electronic billboard located at the defunct African Continental Bank (ACB) building in Ring Road, Benin City.
Orbih, who is also the PDP state campaign council chairman for the September 19 governorship election, said the electronic billboard will help to broadcast all accolades, votes of confidence poured and passed on to the governor as the APC candidate in 2016 by the former governor, Oshiomhole.
He also disclosed that the electronic billboard will help to showcase to the people of the state all the governor’s campaign tour in the 192 wards across the 18 local government areas.
“We are here this evening to commission the electronic board as part of the party and the governor’s campaign innovation. This electronic board will televise most of the governor campaigns’ jingles, all that the former national chairman of APC said about the governor, and also where sometime people will be to watch some of the party’s campaign visit across the 192 wards and 18 local government areas, so that even if you are not able to go with him, you can have a very good view of some of his activities in the course of our campaigns activities,” Orbih said.
“Some persons don’t actually have access to watch and listen to the campaign in their homes but wherever they pass through the Ring Road, they will be able to watch the campaigns. This is quite commendable and I believe that it is a new chapter in the campaign arrangement to reach out to more people,” he said.
While commenting on the former governor’s allegations that Governor Obaseki masterminded the suspension of the Onojie of Uromi, he advised those in the position of leadership especially the politicians not to take any action or decision they will not be able to stand by after leaving office.
He alleged that Oshiomhole during his tenure as governor of the state unilaterally suspended the traditional ruler, but the suspension was, however, lifted by the incumbent governor.
Orbih urged the people of the state not to trust on politicians that cannot stand by their decision, noting that the forthcoming governorship election is all about Edo people and their future as the state cannot afford to go back to Egypt.
drezo: Leave all these nonsense talk and make money here... No time.
They will loose sponsorship, shirt sales, have fan resentment and infighting, etc, during a Pandemic season.
Barca were never going to let him go and if they do, it would be a very bitter departure. They will sponsor publications in the press against him, etc.
DurexDcondom: I think so too. Bad sign. See any country the US has a presence whatsoever, we all know the other stories. Innocent Nigerians should braze up for the worst ahit that may happen few years from now.
Nigerian are like their government, dumb and ignorant of what the world really is.
muchroom: Sansa who accused Tife of abusing and raping her and also leaking her nude photos is now married. Tife had denied all the allegations, while also alleging Sansa had cheated on him and it was a whole war on Twitter while the exchange went on.
The husband was her main guy.... He was shagging her and you know, saying the right things about marriage. Tife was the side guy. She possibly liked him for his bedmatics strength and clout maybe. Side guys always think they are the main guy. It is possible that the main guy caught her cheating with Mr Tife. She had to think of a quick solution to save her impeding marriage.... So, she accuses the side guy (Tife) of rape after perhaps come for break up se.x. The main guy sees this accusation and is sympathetic towards her. She publicly dumps the Tife guy. This reinforces the main guy's belief in her. Tife rants and reportedly releases nudes essentially strengthening her case with the Main guy. He believes her. Tife (side guy) Fights the rape accusation and goes quiet. The main guy pities and loves her even more. Proposes. Gets married.
