Politics › Re: Abiola Ajimobi To Be Buried On Sunday As Family Releases Burial Arrangements by Mccullum: 5:07pm On Jun 27, 2020
truthfulparrot:
I thought Muslims are supposed to be buried within 24 hrs. My Muslim brothers, please help with explanation. Are there exemptions to that rule? COVID 19 should not be used as an excuse. Abba Kyari was buried within 24 hrs.

Are Yoruba Muslims practicing a different faith from our Northern brothers?
Funerals in Islam (called جنازة "Janazah" in Arabic) follow fairly specific rites, though they are subject to regional interpretation and variation in custom. In all cases, however, sharia (Islamic religious law) calls for burial of the body as soon as possible, preceded by a simple ritual of cleaning the corpse, followed by salah (prayer). Burial is usually within 24 hours of death to protect the living from any sanitary issues, except in the case of a person killed in battle or when foul play is suspected; in those cases it is important to determine the cause of death before burial, like Iranian General Qasem Soleimani who was laid to rest after three days of his death.

Politics › Re: Oluremi Tinubu, Sanwo-Olu, Obasa Are Not Lagosians - Bode George by Mccullum: 11:32am On Jun 20, 2020
NOC1:
Some post are worthless, if they are not Lagosians who are they?
According to history the only people who can claim to be true Lagosians are those from Badagary, who eventually migrated to island with slave traders.
If you are looking for true Lagosian to govern Lagos it might be impossible. But those guys know not any other home except Lagos, they where born and brought up in Lagos.
Stop writing rubbish and saying that it's history of Lagos, it'll be better for you to make research on history of Lagos.

Shekau is a real Muslim and very uncompromising. If you are against him as a Muslim you are a hypocrite who doesn't want to further the course of full Islam
Who is hypocrite between non terrorist Muslims and you as you want to be more Islamic than the rest of Muslims of the world, you're hypocrite of the highest level and a fool of the century, typing random of rubbish without any facts or quotations from the holy Quran, before commenting on sensitive issues of religion try to search for concrete evidences to back your statements or you're just crazy of the (LIKES) you'll get from Nairaland which you may used for accumulation of wealth.

He can contests under the platform of any other political party and if he even won that is uncertain, surely court will remove him because concrete evidences has been arranged and approved for his removal, what APC needed is just to be second on the results of the gubernatorial election.

DDeliverer:
......this was how Edo finally returned to PDP.

It's true that OSHIOMOLE and his touts would attempt to rig but if I was Obaseki, days before the election I make an announcement that anyone who attempts to rig would lose his life just like Buhari did.

There would be security everywhere and anybody that does anyhow would see anyhow.

The people love obaseki and the people hate godfatherism.

Edo is now PDP.
All security apparatus are under the command and authority of FG.

Just be hopeful and work on him by hiring a good teacher that will be patient to teach and get where his problem is coming from, he can still learn because there are some children that are slow learners, once they pick to learn, every one will be surprise on amazing ability to learn, yes autism may be part of his problem but he can still learn so far he's not an slowpoke.

Family › Re: Please Help Look Into This Family Issue (I'm Loosing My Mind) by Mccullum: 10:20pm On May 17, 2020
Ope88:
Please don't read and pass, also Pardon all my typo, I'm typing out of duress.

I am from a family of six, 3 girls, 1 boy including my parents.
I had a horrible childhood experience, My Mum (no thanks to her) was something I can't quantify, I can't start writing every of the things she did and I can't say If the religion she practiced contributed largely to the devilish attitude she put up while growing up.

My mum has no good record anywhere, in the church, with the neighbours, with her siblings, we the children, her in laws and even at work, She was always at war with people, if she dreams that someone was trying to attack her in the dream, if she sees the person the following day, she was ready to attack the person.

Also, she would curse her children at any slightest provocation and leave only my brother out(last born and spoilt), She doesn't have any good relationship with her siblings and won't allow my dad visit his family member, I remembered them (Mum and dad) always saying this (don't be unequally yoked together with unbelievers). To them anyone who isn't a Christian (deeper life) is not supposed to be associated with.. My dad on countless occasion will call his mum a witch just because she was a Muslim and one of the oloyes of allasalatu(Muslims will understand this) and had nothing to do with his family members.

This went on and on like this until my elder sister moved out of the house and in the process of trying to find her feet, she got pregnant and my mom practically tormented her life, she later got married to the man, and for that act alone, she's always at logger heads with my sister and her husband..

Later, I got married and then my younger sister followed suit, leaving my dad, herself and my younger brother (whom I have disowned).

Ever since the three of us got happily married, and left the home, my dad slipped into severe depression. Although he has been depressed given lots of things he encountered, job loss, no social interaction, unforgiveness amongst others, it became severe when all his female children left, then from severe depressgion, he started having mental issues, he would wake up and leave the house talking to himself, or start preaching and going out of point with anyone he finds on the street, sometimes he would leave and come home at night, my younger brother who is supposed to comfort and help him, treats him with disdain, my mum who is supposed to check mate his excesses would leave him to his folly and now he has started standing up to her and everyone else in the house..

At 26, he doesn't know his bearing and obviously we have been seeing signs of him wanting to inherit the houses my father built in the same compound.. (and we have noticed that my mum has been making him understand that every of the property belongs to him).

The last straw which broke the camel's back happened one week ago, my elder sister ( who is 9 year older than him) took advantage of the lockdown and visited my father, he is usually exited when we are around him whc helps his severe moodiness. There and then an argument broke out between my sister and my brother, she asked why my brother was insulting our mum for an action that happened in the compound, he beat my sister up and her three children and boasted that, the rest of us (my sister and I) dare not do anything and that by the way we must stop coming to the house, that if he sees any of us He will beat us up, My mum who was supposed to resolve the matter started blaming my sister, asking her why she always love to come visiting, that she's supposed to be in her husband's house or father in laws place and immediately called her hubby to come pick her.

Its been one week my sister left for her house, my daddy who enjoyed her company when she was present started misbehaving again at home. He started roaming, he started cursing everyone.

The reason I'm writing is this, my dad is no where to be found, he left the house yesterday Friday 15th May 2020 and was last seen in ITAMAGA IKORODU, we keep trying his number but he is not picking and now his number is switched off, I'm sure he is still wandering about.

My sisters and I have decided that even when he is found(by God's grace) we do not what him to go back living with my mum and brother.

What other alternatives do we have to care for him, as his own siblings are not happy with him either for abandoning them and their mum (his own mum),, when they needed him the most..


I AM SO SORRY FOR THE LONG POST.. PLEASE HELP ME.



Modified..... My dad has been found today Sunday, 17th May 2020, my sweet mother (elder sister) found her, she has been on her feet since he went missing, luckily he was found but in a terrible state, I saw him via video calls and I wept, he can't recognize even my sister again, and just muttering some words we don't understand, he closes his eyes while saying this and asked everyone to go and leave him, he looks so faint and weak and would not leave where he his...My sister has called his siblings and she's waiting for the next line of ACTION from them.

I'll keep updating the house with reports from our end..
I commend you for being good child in cooperation with your sister for the caring of your father,

Your father need to go and beg his mother and his siblings for forgiveness after he regain his sanity, if the woman still alive

Don't abandon your brother, try to reconcile with him for the unity of your family but apply wisdom and if he is not ready to change, pray for him to change and give him some measurement but retain greetings with him.

Your mother is destructive instrument of your family still she's mother you know, be a good child to her in order not to cause generational curse in your family, what ever you do to your mother your children will replicate it to you in future.

Sorry and be hopeful for better future.
