I still don't know what the issue is here. Same was done for Christian pilgrims months back so.....?

This isn't about whether it was approved for christains as well, it is about not making any economic sense, either to muslims or christians. and before you go on your usual rants i'm a muslim and an intending pilgrim in the nearest future.

FFK,FAYOSE has said this many times but some people would choose to be blinded by hatred for the duo and reject the message and the messenger.isn't it clearing this man called buhari has an agenda to make we christain as second class citizens in our country.sometimes I wonder if this APC people has jazzed some nigerians that they choose to support them even when its clear this guys have no idea to take this nation forward.all nigerian politicians are big fuckers I hate them all but I choose not to be blinded when I see the truth been said.but buhari hear this u can't islamatise this country kukuma we go use war scatter am finish

Take it easy before hypertension kill you. Pilgrims going to Jerusalem too were given the same treatment last year which was also bad in itself. Whether sold to Muslim or Christian pilgrims, it does not make any sense.

kahal29:
While analysing the rating, the Publicity Secretary of the Lagos PDP, Gani Taofik, in an interview with our correspondent, on Thursday, described the rating as laughable.

“Can Governor Akinwunmi Ambode walk on the streets and receive the same kind of support that Governor Fayose gets in Ekiti? Ambode’s elitist style cannot be compared to that of Mimiko and Fayose, who are governors that the common man recognises and relates easily with.

At the bold part: I don't think Lagosians have time for the kind of similarity being painted here. We wake up and 5am and Lagos and take a very long drive from Ikorodu, Ikotun, Agege, Egbeda, Agbara .... all the way to the Island and other places to look for our daily bread. We don't wait in line or que up for one silly Governor to start sharing one cup of lousy rice to us in Lagos. Someone should please help us tell the PDP in Lagos this simple fact.

Those attack dog and e-warriors employed to work at the PDP situation room ain't smart at all; they aren't really schooled in the art of character assassination and in bringing one down. This one wont fly, because your Aisha can not visit the USA scam has been busted already. I would've thought the mofos would have just go under and re-strategise. But they are quick to urgently find a non existing mud to throw at Mrs Buahri. Unfortunately, the pictured bag does not look anywhere near what Aisha is carrying; except may be I'm not seeing very well.

Dminister:
I want to quickly chip in this; Otuo in Owan East where I hail from doesn't have anything like dam, it's only three boreholes project that have been executed so far since he started representing the people of Owan East and west area constituency. what these politicians do is to list gigantic project with high cost as their primary project to be executed and after getting their allocation they embark low cost project.
God is watching all you wicked politicians. one day be one day monkey go enter market he no go return.

Don't get worked up men, it's not only in your constituency that such is happening, it is a national menace. I can bet that 99.9% of all these allocations ain't gonna go anywhere but the pockets of our polithieficians. Just relax!

nathz45:
I started looking for RIVERS from the bottom and FG didn't fail to disappoint

Some comments on this platform confirms my fears that this forum is made up of so many kids. At the bold part, what concerns FG in the allocation of funds for constituency projects.

The worst part is while we are here shouting brown roofs, flat heads, goro chewing, yoruba muslim/christian and the likes, they are there, enjoying their loot, preparing the future for their children.

I'm not surprised at some of the comments berating BRF. Those berating him either simply lacks the capacity to comprehend what he's talking about or they are just hating out of shared hatred. It takes share intelligence and a mind devoid of "biasedness" and hatred to understand the present socio-economic dynamics of the present day Nigeria. Our young people still have a lot to learn.

DIFY20:
y are are poeple blaming linda ikeji without blaming the real person at fault which is toyin who was the one dat started the campaigning from the d beginning and carry false news at the end....is it beacuse u guys from south west dont like linda....because i have never seen anyone blame toyin

Most you put tribal coloration to everything, are you MAD ni? Dem swell for you people ni? Haha!!!

Ha-ha! What, has SW gat to do with the matter on ground now, you dey craze ni? Is it only SW people that contributed the money. And to imagine that this werey went to school and bagged a degree insults logic.

Awon oloriburuku omo

I don't think the OP is doing you guys any favour here. Do graduate needs to be spoon fed on how to prepare their selves for a job placement? I don't get it. You mean after reading the advert placement, people still come here to ask how to go about it, isn't the advert explicit enough?

KehindeOmololu:
Please,what category can I apply for,as a graduate of GUIDANCE and COUNSELING? Thanks in anticipation.

As a graduate dear, you still need to be spoon fed on where to apply your skill to? Is the application advertisement not clear enough? This is not tidy.

OwoLee:
First of all, won't result to bashing of "Christianity" because this has nothing to do with both religion. I know that poverty knows no religion, corrupt people in this country are Christian, Muslim.
My dear O.P, I will advice you to relieve your heart of a particular burden in your heart, don't know whether you wanted to bash the Muslims or buhari because you have fail to realizes we exist as a nation because we tolerate one another. If anything of what you intend to instigate happens, am sure you wouldn't even be with your phone talkless of typing.
Back to the issue of politics, sometimes I wonder why some people have reduced their brain to a kindergarten way of reasoning, speaking holistically at your issues, now you condemning buhari and the APC using religious sentiments, is the PDP only a Christian dominated party? NO...many of those who occupies positions are Hausa that are Muslim. What do you make of that?
For your so much hatred against buhari, whether you like it or not, he's the President of the country in which you reside. Let face reality, why so much hatred, GEJ is not even as bitter as you are, he's been touring the world living in peace and here you are spitting a treacherous statement online, do you know you could be located and am sure you will spend the rest of your life in prison.
Let's be mindful of what we speak and type on social media all because you want to gain "likes" on nairaland. Of what's benefit to you?
Politics is always politics, leave religion out of it, the elites in the country milking our resources are both Muslim and Christian, there sons and daughters love theirselves a lot because, they go to america, UK together. Jonathan family doesn't even know you and don't expect you to act stupid just because you want to show support.
My people in yorubaland, we don't discriminate, i have Christian sisters and brothers in my family, and so as we are all free to support different party we choose to support, we don't take that out of proportion by preaching hatred. Everything is Politics!

...and you know the aspect that saddens me most about all these their nonsense, it is the same youth that some people have been clamoring for that should be given the chance that are doing and believing all these rubbish. Now, isn't it now obvious that this country appears not to have a future, if the so called ICT compliant youths can be living in this type of nonsense? I fear for this country!

leketones:
Hi fellow nairalanders,I'm corper serving in ogun state presently;abeokuta, and I'm about 2 register for a professional course to help boost my CV,actually I read biochemistry and I finished wt 2:2 frm FUTA(I guess we knw wat it means) but d confusion there is that am yet 2 decide whc professional course 2 register for between PMP nd food processing profession,I really like ds two courses; I like PMP becos d course is kinnda versitile(it can make me work anywhere) nd I like food processin profession because it's pertaining 2 my course(food biochemistry precisely nd am kinnda familiar wt it)......pls I need u 2 put me through based on ur experiences or if u re into ds professional courses ......Thank u vry much.

You can actually go for both but at different times. Now, since you're serving presently, I would advise that you use that spare time (which others waste away) to start preparing for the PMP exam and wrap that up within the service year. Besides, since it's a one-off exam (not like part 1, paper 2 or things like that) makes it easier to pass or fail. the Choice is yours.

As for the seconmd one, I mean professional exam in food processing, that one can come along the line, anytime, provided something else or event does not over take it. This one is something you can grow to see the need while working on the job. As a matter of fact, it's better you start working as a food bio-chemist before you commence that as your work experience is going to greatly assist you passing. You won't want to rely on your class room theoretical knowledge, would you?

Mandaking:
Common umbrella a commissioner in kwara state can't carry, so tell me how will they carry our problems?

Now, tell me why he needs the police escort in the first place with a riffle, if the police that is suppose to be on red alert to protect him with his riffle is still the one carrying umbrella with the hand he's supposed to use in pulling the trigger. The question is: who's the fool among the two? Both are dead meats if they were to be attacked. Awon werey!

herzern:
Op.....lemme explain

you own a viewing centre....A boy came to play ps3 worth of 5000 naira...yhu switched on your generator and he played till his satisfaction
Later on...The Parent came and said the 5k was stolen by the boy.......will yhu return it??
The truth is....you rendered the service already....there is nothing you can do about it.....Products can be returned but Services...mba!

I don't know how old you are. But I could remember in those days in this country, if a child takes N2o twenty naira to a food vendor, he or she will be followed to his or her house, to find out who gave him or her such a huge amount. It once happened to me, that was when there was still sanity I the land, unlike now. So, your analogy is subjective. Thanks

I only read all the comments on the first page and I'm not impressed at all by what I was reading. Don't you all know that it is illegal in the first place for the national assembly to even tamper with what is sent to it by the executive ? Its absolutely wrong. Their job is pass the budget and not to add or reduce it. And there's also nothing like constituency allowance or project in our law books or constitution, we don't have such a budget or account heads. The work of the assembly is to vet what the executive passed to it as budget, send it back to them for correction if it's not properly done or needs to be tinkered with. It's not their prerogative to alter same.

All constituency allowance or constituency projects money received all along is illegal and a fraud.

You all were just shouting Buhari this, Buhari that,

Drienzia:
We ain't bothered. Because even Koran stated that "if you find anything confusing here, you can ask those who read the bible. The truth is already revealing that"


Jesus was the only person that performed miracles in the koran. Muhammad was busy leading his followers to various wars, till he died.

The only woman mentioned in the koran is Marian"mary(the mother of jesus)
Koran said she went to heaven with her physical body. Meaning the assumption of the blessed virgin is written in the koran.

You people should come down from your high horses let me educate you about the koran you studied and didn't understand since you were kids.

Lots of Muslims converts to Christianity on daily basis, so cut the crap!!!

Koran said Muhammad is dead. And won't rise again.
Same koran said Jesus is the word of God.
And koran said God created the world through the word(Jesus).
They er just confused being. Surely they need our prayers...

Peace!!!

LOL. I think you are the one that his confused here. Perhaps, you didn't read the Quran as it ought to have been read-with an open mind, with aim of learning. If not, you would've noticed where it was said that the Quran is a confirmation of what other Books (not only the Bible).
You know, i'm just full of smiles at your ignorance, or should I say mischief, while typing this. Anyway, all the same...Peace!

If it's true that the Presidential Committee Report on Army purchases from 2007 to 2015 is shielding Dambazzau and Buratai as alleged, then I score him zero, as in zero. Otherwise, I will score him a 5.

Genius101:
no...not before now bro infact it's now worst or how can one explain how lasu charged 5k,delsu 5k, uniport 6500,oau 6850 from not only the candidates sent to them for consideration but also from every candidate that chose them and had 180 and above. perhaps they are using there last opportunity to make enough money.

No, you didn't get it, here it is:

It's simply translates to less money in the pockets of the universities and students who don't qualify gets to save their monies[/b]too unlike what is applicable before now

“For the avoidance of doubt, [b]any screening charges shall apply only to successful candidates who have been issued admission by the universities of their choice. All Universities and JAMB should adhere to this directive”,

AKAKAK:
Pictured below is the British prime minister assisting to move his things house of the government house since steeping down tomorrow for another person (Theresa May). This is how humble these people are and how they see political positions as an opportunity to serve and not to be served. I hope our leaders in Nigeria and Africa Generally can take a cue from this

Sorry bro, that's a false hope. It ain't gonna happen in this part of the world. Him do even resign, talk less of parking his belongings? Abi o ti resign ni?

Crime has no religion or tribe; if you are a criminal or have committed a crime, you have no other name than being a criminal. But in Nigeria, the association of name checkers, who would soon invade this thread, will sha attach you to one tribe or religion, forgetting that the menace of this idiots is a detriment to our collective well being.

O ya o, food is ready, name checkers

MrOlai:
It is genocide simply because it involves mass gruesome killing!

Animal Communities

The Quran describes that animals form communities, just as humans do:
"There is not an animal that lives on the earth, nor a being that flies on its wings, but they form communities like you. Nothing have we omitted from the Book, and they all shall be gathered to their Lord in the end"

If someone kills a sparrow for sport, the sparrow will cry out on the Day of Judgment, “O Lord! That person killed me in vain! He did not kill me for any useful purpose” (Sunnan An Nasai)

The Prophet, may the mercy and blessings of God be upon him, said, “Whoever kills a sparrow or anything bigger than that without a just cause, God will hold him accountable on the Day of Judgment.” The listeners asked, “O Messenger of God, what is a just cause?” He replied, “That he will kill it to eat, not simply to chop off its head and then throw it away” (Sunnan An Nasai).

Islam expects humankind to treat all animals (all living creatures - birds, sea creatures, and insects) with respect and dignity. Prophet Muhammad continuously advised people to show kindness. He forbade the practice of cutting tails and manes of horses, of branding animals at any soft spot, and of keeping horses saddled unnecessarily. “Fear God in your treatment of animals” (Abu Dawood).

However, refraining from physical cruelty is not enough; abstaining from mental cruelty is equally as important. Even a bird’s emotional distress should be treated seriously. One of Prophet Muhammad’s companions narrates, “We were on a journey and during the Prophet’s absence, we saw a bird with its two chicks; we took them. The mother bird was circling above us in the air, beating its wings in grief. When Prophet Muhammad returned he said, “Who has hurt the feelings of this bird by taking its chicks? Return them to her”

In pre Islamic times, pagan superstitions and polytheistic practices included acts of torture and cruelty to animals. Islam condemned this and put a stop to all such practices. When Prophet Muhammad and his companions migrated to Medina, they noticed that people cut off camels’ humps and the fat tails of sheep for food. The Prophet forbade them from them from doing this and said, “Whatever is cut off an animal while it is still alive, is carrion and is unlawful to eat.” (At-Tirmidhi)

In Islam, the rules pertaining to slaughtering animals are very strict and fixed. Protecting animals from pain and undue suffering is paramount.

“God has ordained kindness (and excellence) in everything. If the killing (of animals) is to be done, do it in the best manner, and when you slaughter, do it in the best manner by first sharpening the knife, and putting the animal at ease.” (Saheeh Muslim)

"When you set your dog (for the chase), mention the name of God if he catches the game, and you reach it while it is still alive, cut, its throat quickly (so it won’t suffer)” (Saheeh Bukhari & Muslim)

babadee1:
This is why the social media bill is desperately needed, so that people like the OP can be arrested and jailed for 10 years minimum.

Honestly

The question me would like to ask is can one do all night only, as in, like 7pm to 7am? And what's the cost for each of the output?

Thanks.

MRSALT:
I wonder what the intent of OP is in spreading lies. Now Tajudeen Umar is a southerner?

And who told you that Tajudeen Umar can't be a southerner? So, what about all Abdullah Abdulaziz, Abdulhakeem Abdullateef, Kareem Amza in yoruba land edo/delta

omenpetrol:
I have been privilege to work with some Nigerian banks and essentially they fall into 2 major categories. 1; Wise and Non-Complacent and 2; Unwise and Complacent.

1. Wise and Non-Complacent. The are banks that got it right from the onset or who have failed and learnt their lessons. E.g GTBank, Access and Wema, Union etc.

2. Unwise and Complacent. These are reckless banks who are still dwelling on past glory. They have gone through troubled time and have not learnt their lessons e.g Firstbank, Heritage, Ecobank etc.

Be wise with your deposits. Wonder why First Bank introduce so many Illegal charges? It might just be the next to go burst. Thank me later.

No wonder, at the bold part!!! First Bank have been sending me SMS of some not too clear and frivilous charges on my acount these few days!

I think the Excos of Skye Bank shouldn't just go free like all the name of resigning. This action of theirs have put so many families into delima to retrenchment of staff and outright sack

Slow and steady wins the race.

Now, who gives a damn who started the project and who completes it... only the scalywags does... all I care about is for the system to work.

I have read a lot of childish comments on this forum... they are pathetic to say the least... and most are born out of hatred. I think all we need is to corporate with the present administration, assist them with prayers so that they can deliver on their promise. But na lie, some block heads no go gree hear word.

Anyway, Kaduna and Abuja people, enjoy your dividend of democracy,... and if huna like, make huna spoil the train in no time. Goodluck to you guys!

Oche211:
Some idiots will come out nw to say that Pres. Buhari owns it.
Waiting for the first idiot to quote me with that claim.

Had it been the hotel' advert board didn't carry "since 1951", Mehn!!!!, you for don see comment. But that declaration saved the day

Frankiss44:
The gutter isn't there for you to channel your waste bathing water. The primary purpose of the gutter is to control flood when it rains. Most people that channel it to the gutter are mainly in rural region. You can't stay in Urban areas and be thinking of channeling your waste to a nearby gutter. It either goes straight to the soakaway or a septic tank. And to think of it, what is hygienic about channeling your waste to the gutter?

I beg to disagree at the bold part sir. This isn't true and correct all the time. Though, I live in rural area, Sabo-Yaba, Little Rd, precisely, but even my in-laws who lives in Lekki Phase One have their bath and kitchen water channeled to the gutter. Where can be more urban than here.

By the way, we're talking of Bath water here nah! No be poo, so what's the "biggy" in putting it there?

JustCare:
It depends on class and the area you're living, it's also more hygienic when it's channeled into a septic tank.

Well, I think channelling into the gutter is the best way, because, that's why the gutter is there anyway. Channelling it into a septic tank or soakaway, as the case may be, for me, isn't economical and hygienic.

kcnwaigbo:
You think this case is over? Just sit and watch as more courageous person picks up this case!!! Imagine threatening someone over it with jail!!!

Let PDP take up the case, that's when I will know it is serious. If the PDP, and Bukola Saraki and Ekweremadu can't use this to flush out PMB with all the troubles he's been allegedly giving them, I wonder who else.

ADEWUMIMichael:
According to him, it may not also be easy for institutions that had already collected money for the conduct of the post-UTME or screening in whatever guise to refund such money.

He added that this was because such money could have been diverted to other purposes.

Ogunyemi noted that most universities were under-funded and therefore, might have used some of the money to attend to urgent needs of the institution.

“Some of the arguments raised in this entire episode is that universities or tertiary institutions were using the conduct of such examination to make money,” he said.

“But the truth is, these institutions are poorly funded. If universities for example are properly funded, will the vice-chancellors be looking for other means of making money?

“In the last seven months, university workers have been receiving incomplete salaries, that is, the disbursement of funds for payment of salaries has always been inadequate.

“When situations like this arise, the managements will not be left with any choice than to look inwards and seek means of meeting such needs.

Now, when you put the bold parts together, you will have no choice than to agree with me that the only reason why they are conducting the exam is monetary. They have deviated from the initial intents and purpose.

Boss13:
My brother it is the only way. Another thing the government can do is address interest rate and affordable business loans and not Sure P or a power this or that. Those are what Venture capitals or Angel investors do in developed countries.

I would not except my government to be carrying out empowerment programs for buying keke naptep or giving 100 people N10 million. How many lives will it change.

At the bold part; I think Government is only stepping in to take the place of the venture capitalists and their likes since they seem not to be functional.
