Even as a Scientist, I can tell you that we don't assume causation, we only speak on possible correlation and that is why there would always be exceptions. I can share experiences of someone who died at the gym, someone who doesn't play with gym and still had 2 heart attacks and someone who keeps fit and still slumped and died. Yes you can draw on the law of average, but let me shock you...there is no average to destiny, when it is time...it is time. The people that I know that are long gone...you think they were fat and obese...more shocking is that the people you expect to go are still alive while others that look fit are died and buried. Check your complete health status...you are go to the gym and still slump at the gym. Healthy Heart is different from Healthy looking, and now you have been served.

DarkJeddi:
Exercise keeps you fit and healthy.
It doesn't guarantee a long healthy life.
But it increases your odds.
That you think you know better than Science and empirical evidence is funny.

Listen to yourself. Even the USA buys from China. If you want to buy from the USA, you will still buy Chinese products at a high price. We need to have a balance of trade to export things that China must take...and they do...they prefer our raw materials. Can you blame China? They can make things better than we can, so why would they export stuff from Nigeria that no one would buy? Even if the US allows Chinese phones and cars, Americans will stop buying American cars because China knows how to use cheap and high-tech technology in everything. China is the next global superpower, and Nigeria is doing well in aligning itself. All that US noise is just noise... US debts are scattered all over the world. I feel so sad for the US Economy during and post-Trump.

Hyperchi:
Naija is just selling it self short, no matter USA bad, they are still out best trading partner, we can high the price as long as it has good standard they will buy, and they buy our product more than China, but we buy from china more than USA.

They came for the guy and that's why he wanted Uber...and someone inside the Hookah tipped them off that he was there and about to leave. Unfortunately the Naija man was collateral they will probably discover. 77yr old still driving Uber...God please I want to travel and enjoy life at this age not working. It is well

When you are out of power, people will not pick up your calls - Former Kenyan Deputy Governor who now hawks firewood says

https://thekenyatimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Photo-collage-of-former-Vihiga-County-Deputy-Governor-Caleb-Amaswache-and-President-William-Ruto.-PHOTO-Frederick-Ogenya-PCS.png

https://balindiway.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/BALINDIWAY20-2.jpg


A former Kenyan Deputy Governor, Caleb Amaswache, is now hawking firewood in Luanda town to earn a living and pay his bills.


The ex-Vihiga County Deputy Governor served under former county boss, Moses Akaranga. Citizen TV caught up with him in Luanda doing his usual business of supplying firewood to various hotels.


He pointed out how life has not been a walk in the park after leaving office, a situation he described as undeserving after serving as a deputy governor.


He added that he could not afford to pay for his bills, including catering for his children's education.


"I need a job. I'm asking His Excellency William Ruto to consider those who were in government at one given time. We are all Kenyans and the President should take care of all of us," he remarked.


"I don't have enough capital. I have a daughter who's going to school and I need Ksh.200,000 for a start."


All he is left with are portraits of him and senior government officials who mingled with him during his heyday.


This reflects what he went through both during his time in power and after losing it.


Amaswache pointed out that his past attempts to apply for jobs were in vain, citing that his application was not shortlisted in the ongoing Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Commissioner interviews.


He cautioned current leaders to respect others, highlighting that power is transient.


"My advice to those in power is to respect and protect those who previously served in office.


Today you could be in office, tomorrow you could not," he added.

Ignorance...you can be skinny and still die of hypertension, accidents and illness ...checking your health is a better advice. This is why healthy looking people drop dead...they think looking healthy = being healthy. Don't be ignorant

Kajaard:
He was overweight (obese). Take care of your health folks.

Being fat is not a sign of wealth. It is a sign of illness.

Another nonsensical statement. In the South, the soldiers were on a peace mission; they were ambushed by members of the community, beheaded, and killed with their heads cut off. Even in the US, try it and see if the forces will not descend.

In the North, it was a battle...soldiers died repelling Boko Haram. The communities did not conspire to kill the soldiers. You speak as someone ignorant of the facts or who just chooses to speak based on perceived bias. It is people like you who want to make everything about North vs South. Next, you will go to church and pray to God, but you are not part of the BLESSED are the PEACEMAKERS. You are truly lost and need to find your soul.

fuckingAyaya:
Will the soldiers reinforce and raze down the whole community like they do in the south Or they will let it slide ?

Innoson is not producing as much...this may actually be a good thing if they are compensated well. Innoson needs to look for great financing for new customers ...Chinese cars in Nigeria will soon sink Innoson if they don't move fast enough. They also need to list it on stock exchange so they can raise capital.

Why didn't they disconnect the wires before demolition? My people

PDP can not give ATIKU ticket in 2027. He knows that. He is planning to run in SDP primary with the plan to pick up its ticket. WIKE will then lead PDP to unite with APC for Tinubu. ATIKU will plan to run as a Northern Candidate with hope that Tinubu wont get 2/3rd but I do not see him succeeding. ATIKU will bank on LP issues and will try to lure Peter Obi to SDP...let us win and after my terms, I will support you winning the Presidency. None will work. Tinubu will win. Kwankwaso will join APC and take over after Tinubu.

This I have seen.

Lol they should also mention that Dr. Amadi worked at the school Baze University owned by Datti Ahmed...no one takes him seriously

I told one of my colleagues...the massive IT breach that took place a while back that grounded all the aircrafts may have provided hackers with ways to down US airplanes. The rate at which planes crash in the US is worrisome.

My other controversial opinion is --- US discussed aliens and alien aircraft crash with US Govt retrieving some artifacts. The aliens may be fighting back and jamming electrical devices of aircrafts - both military and civilians.

Given the aircraft crashes are not just on US soils alone and include US military aircrafts in foreign countries too...I will go with Option 1. This is scary.

@Botragelad. Why did Trump cancel press conference with Netanyahu? and now negotiating with Iran? Netanyahu looks mad next to Trump, so you come here to distract us with this news.

We can discuss all crimes by Jews and link it to Jews, but we wont be like you. That a Muslim commits a crime does not mean Islam is to be blamed. You just want to create division here, and it wont work. Save all these information for Haaretz or J.Post.

Too many people carrying one coffin and the first guy is already past the weight limit. Crazy situation

GistMedia0:
A funeral ceremony turned tragic in Philadelphia when a platform gave way during the burial of Benjamin Aviles, pulling multiple people — including the deceased man's son — into the grave.

The heartbreaking incident occurred during the final moments of the service for Aviles, who passed away in late March. As pallbearers were attempting to lower his casket into the ground, the platform supporting them suddenly collapsed, causing the casket and several family members to fall into the burial pit.

In a particularly shocking moment, Aviles’ son became trapped with his face pressed into the mud, pinned beneath his father's casket. Eyewitnesses described a chaotic and emotional scene as mourners screamed and rushed to help.

Several pallbearers also suffered injuries in the fall, including wounds to their legs, hands, and backs. Emergency services were called to the scene and assisted in rescuing those trapped.

The incident has left the grieving family even more devastated, turning an already painful farewell into a traumatic experience.

Sounds good on paper until he gets there. We had high hopes for Obama too...You are either dictatorial to effect change like Wike or you are all talks and no actions which is what most of these folks are. I want to see him take on programs directly and manage people on the ground in Nigeria. He can start an Agro Company in Nigeria and run it ...let us see if he can become another Dangote. Talk is CHEAP really.

As you can see, the other lady did not utter a word. I see why he isn't going to her appointment. Public shame she does not have.

GistMedia0:
A shocking scene unfolded at a clinic when a pregnant woman found her baby daddy walking in with another pregnant woman—who, according to reports, is also carrying his child.

The confrontation quickly turned into a public outburst as the first woman, visibly enraged and heartbroken, began shouting at the man right inside the clinic. According to eyewitnesses, she wasn’t just angry about the betrayal—she was also furious because the man and his mother currently live in her house.

In the viral footage making rounds online, the betrayed woman can be heard lashing out at both the man and the second woman, expressing her disbelief and hurt. Patients and staff watched in shock as she demanded answers, accusing him of playing her while comfortably living under her roof.

The drama has since sparked massive reactions on social media, with many calling out the man for his two-timing ways and others praising the woman for confronting him publicly.

You destroyed your own countries by voting and collaborating with useless politicians (criminals) who institute demonic policies and rob your country blind, you now want to run to other people's well-administered country to repeat the same stupidity?

Dumbass

Trump is canceling those with valid student visas and permanent residency. Now he is looking to find illegal immigrants via IRS because some receive special tax IDs to file taxes, so they can do the right thing. A typical American will have a social security number. Now it seems those that never filed taxes, never got into trouble are the truly free ones...though its almost impossible not to get into trouble in America. You either get a ticket or get mixed up with something unless you don't drive at all.

baslone:
The way I see it, Trump’s immigration policies primarily target documented migrants—people who entered the U.S. legally through official programs or valid visas (student, work, tourist, etc.) and either overstayed or are transitioning between statuses. These are the individuals caught in the crossfire of stricter rules and policy changes.

Meanwhile, undocumented migrants—many of whom, like thousands of Mexicans, Venezuelas cross the border illegally—continue to enter the country without being tracked. These individuals are essentially invisible to the system until they get into legal trouble. Ironically, Trump’s policies don’t even address this group effectively; instead, they create more roadblocks for those trying to follow the legal path.

They should just hold a convention and elect a new Chairman. How hard can that be?

If you have followed documentary of migrats from Venezuela and so on, they do the same thing that we do...take loans of close to $30k to pay smugglers, or from families...sell assets with the mind that they will work in the USA..now Trump wants all of them to self deport. Some are even stranded in Mexico as we speak. Power is transient. Govt ought to be a continuum. Trump's legacy I am sure history may not be so kind. We shall see.

Imagine selling your family's land to relocate to the US for greener pastures and you are being asked to leave within a week or become a fugitive.


Just imagine being a banker in Nigeria. Then you took loans to get there...about ₦30m. Upon agent chop you inside. And you got here and haven't even secured a comfort zone, let alone start repaying the loans and you are being asked to leave.


They can't leave.

Many will commit suicide.

Do you know what it means for the whole family to depend on you after selling everything to send you to succeed!

Check out 2025 Buick Enclave...American cars are not what they used to be...some of them can go 300k miles now Lol. Americans just drive recklessly lol..if you find cars owned by older people, they last for a long time....Americans lack maintenance culture too like Naijas

Morafvckers will now be forced to buy those wack American cars.

Big boxes that will never make it to 200k miles.

Go to Lekki...I remember growing up, lots of kids had fresh skin but they come from very wealthy families in Nigeria. I am sure if you can afford AC in Nigeria, eat good food and use nice cream, you can achieve...that is the norm abroad...you would hardly see fake creams, even poor people must pay for electricity and use AC for cold/heat as needed and you get enough GMO food.

Then when you spend like 20yrs abroad, you get different illness and start using multiple medications LOL . All that glitters is not GOLD.

I am still lost for words as to why people keep having kids or attempt to have them without having the funds to even give birth to these kids. I had one, and the stress was enough. I didn't want to have number 2. I had to make sure we agreed to enough help before number 2. Else, one will just die running up and down. A friend's sister also died while trying to give birth...both Mom and Baby. Now, the friend is raising the two children left behind, and she is struggling with her own even before this added responsibility. The question was...this lady already had a boy and girl, and yet this man, husband to a friend's sister, still wanted more children.... why are we like this? If we cant breed animals without feeds just cos we can, why do we breed other human beings without provisions? Fast forward a few years, and this man here would be expecting another baby with another woman...we don't learn. What a Shame.

Govt should not be in the business of building shopping malls unless they plan to sell the shops or sell the Mall to investors and collect annually on it on a PPP plan to maintain.

I prefer selling the shops and recouping the investment, then give the maintenance to another company and collect annual revenues and taxes from the company.
