Mark Perlmutter, an American doctor working in Gaza, stated Israeli snipers were deliberately targeting children. He stated "No toddler gets shot twice by mistake by the 'world's best sniper.' And they're dead-center shots." In a letter addressed to US President Joe Biden, a group of American doctors and nurses returning from Gaza stated, "Every one of us on a daily basis treated pre-teen children who were shot in the head and chest"

These are atrocities some are defending here.

Their thought process is shocking, same people will accuse Nigerian Army of committing genocide but want Izrel to kill all Palestinian because of some few evil people among them...
This is an Israeli minister saying returning the hostages is not even the main goal. The main goal Is chasing away the Palestines and taking the land.

Did Israel invade Hamas or Hamas invaded Israel?
Wow...Hamas just woke up one morning and decided to attack the innocent and spotless Israel

At the point where the held hostages are returned or is that too much to ask?
Some of you are not normal. So since Hamas took people hostage, Israel should murder every man, women and child?

Israel itself has rejected hostages. So much so that hostage families themselves are protesting the government. Hostages themselves have claimed how Israeli airstrikes have endangered them.

And the gals are generally outperforming the guys academically.

I invigilated a 200L exam yesterday. The venue I managed was specifically for 400L carryover students of a particular department. Out of the 22 students that wrote the exam, 19 were males while 3 were females.

I asked their course rep if they had more boys than girls, and he said their class has 65 students, comprising of 31 girls and 34 boys.

So,
Out of 31 girls, 28 passed and 3 failed.
Out of 34 boys, 15 passed and 19 failed.

Staggering failure from the boys
That one class doesn't prove anything.

So you agree it's doable. EOD

Why are you mentioning Kano? Do you live in Kano? Kano was never in the initial discuss.
I assumed we both live in the south, there's no need for me to make my basis on people living in Kano.

What you're talking about is impossible. I mostly eat indoors, but even at that, a pot of soup of #15k doesn't last more than a day, and soups are even the cheapest meals to make. Then when I eat out, it's even more than that a day, so as you can see, it's not possible. Well, different realities.

Schools nowadays no longer fail children and ask them to repeat a particular class for fear of parents taking their children away to another school. You would see someone with failure in the result sheet yet being promoted to the next class. Is this only happening in Benin or have anyone else noticed this?

Like one person said above, there are certain type of meat and fish too that you can buy for 50K and wont even full pot. Is that what the average person in the country is eating?
All these you argument is not straightforward. Elder said he can finish pot of 16k in a day and it's doable. No need for too much shalaye.

If you visit her older thread you would see it's 5k.

Na because na Elder talk this thing sha, a kilo of turkey is about 8/9K, of which you'd get 6 big pieces from it. By the time you add tomato, onion and other things you need to cook the soup/stew finish, you don dey touch that 15K.

If Elder prepare that soup for morning, take two pieces of turkey for morning, and another two evening...say a friend comes around, or long throat carry eye go the soup again, that pot of soup don down go o.

This scenario is very common with bachelors who tend to make soup/stew and eat it alone until it finishes. And some people no sabi use oil and water make soup/stew big, there are many things to consider grin
Gbam.

Price of rice is steadily crashing. I was at the rice mill yesterday, and prices ranged from 17k to 22k for a bushel (25kg) depending on the species, grain type, and whether its old or new rice. The one I got cost 18k for the bushel. For context, this time last year, I got a bushel for 38k, and 3 months ago I bought at 25k.

Judging from the price at the mill, 50kg bag of rice at supermarket stores no suppose pass 50k.

Buhari border closure and banning of rice importation drove up the price of rice. and now that PBAT has reversed it, the price don dey come down. and long may it continue.
Do you live close to the border?

Do you think traveling abroad in a year is a luxury for a former footballer? Or sending his kids to private Uni or abroad Uni is a luxury? Any former footballer who sees travel abroad as a luxury don enter Naija trenches be that
Sending 10 to 20 family members children to Babcock like you described is a luxury no one forced him to do, travelling overseas countless times for recreation purposes or just visitation is also luxury.

120M per year is not a lot of money even in Lagos for the profile of an ex player. Prudent to you is not prudent to him

Someone on the level of Ahmed Musa fit get up to 10 if not 20family members children wey him go dey pay their Private Uni (Babcock Covenant) school fees per year of 2m each. That is 20-30m on top school fees alone

You know say one trip abroad modestly can cost him $10k that is about N15m. Three of those trips in 1 yr is almost 50m. Or do you think 3 abroad trips a year is too much for Ahmed Musa. That is solo trips not carrying family along, and staying in budget hotels
You are listing luxuries. If you decide to spend like that and then go broke it's all on you. You can't be spending above your means because you are celebrity.

You go lick one cup of ogbono finish in a day?

Abi him thimk say this one na picture

In the voice of Asari Dokubo* "Foto"
Stop comparing yourself to someone else. It's possible to finish that amount of soup in one day and just because you hear pot of soup it's not that kind of family potgrin. It might be small quantity for a day well garnished with meat and kpomo, shrimps, periwinkle, stockfish etc hence that amount. Let's give elder the benefit of doubt.

I was at a lounge a few days ago, and the table right next to me had some policemen, two men, and a lady. Guess what they were settling? Infidelity matter lol.
One of the men had slept with the other man’s wife, and the husband actually involved police. The policemen were there trying to settle it inside the lounge. At one point, the husband even tried to fight the guy.

Honestly, I never understand why some men behave like this. If your wife or girlfriend cheats on you, isn’t it obvious she doesn’t rate you at all?

A cousin of mine almost landed in jail because of woman matter. The guy his woman slept with nearly died twice in the hospital after my cousin and his guys beat him almost to death. Just because of cheating.
The matter was very serious back then.


See ehn, as long as your woman wasn’t raped, your real issue should be with her, not the other guy. She knew she had a man and still opened the door for another man, yet you’re fighting the man? That’s loser behavior.
Irrespective of how anyone tries to spin it, women are the gatekeepers of sex, no two ways about it.

If I ever catch my wife in bed with another man, my problem will be with her, not him. And even with that, I won’t raise my hand to beat her. She’s already broken the trust, the best move is separation, not violence. What if you kill her? Or what if you go after the man and things go sideways, you kill him or he kills you? Why risk your whole life over someone cheating on you?

No amount of love should ever make you fight or arrest somebody because they slept with your woman, unless she was raped.
I applaud your cousin for that resounding beat. If you decide to sleep with married woman anything you receive na you Sabi. Nobody send you message.

Play to the referee's whistle. Don't lose your concentration. This is the key. It's the referee who blows the whistle and only him decides when the action should stop.

Besides, this player cleared the ball with his head, in a defensive action. Why should he fall down? So everytime a player clears the ball with their head and falls down, the game should be stopped? Is that where we are now?

This clearly wasn't a head injury and the player immediately got up after the goal was given. It was a clear tactics of the dark arts. The Mallorca players were wrong to stop playing and it cost them a goal and ultimately the match.

You calling Barcelona players disgraceful, is pure hypocrisy because Real Madrid players will do the same. They play on even if they have injured a player and the player was writhing in pain.

In this instance, Barcelona players didn't injure him. He took a ball directly to the head and cleared it. He should have dodged his head so we could score easily.
Just stop.


Arrasate Mallorca coach also said: “I think we’ve all seen it. Last week, they explained to us all that if there’s a blow to the head, the game is stopped, and the fourth official in front of me told him to stop because it’s a blow to the head.
He puts the whistle to his mouth. We all thought he’d blown it, and to everyone’s amazement, he gives a goal. I still don’t understand.

Barcelona players are disgraceful. You saw a fellow player take a ball directly to the head with full force on impact and went down immediately yet you continued playing despite his teammates trying to stop the game so he could get look at. What if he had collapsed immediately and it was more severe. Shameful behavior.

You all are looking at only one aspect. The most complete wrestlers ever( in ring performance, mic , charisma, selling Merch, pulling crowds) are Hulk, Stone cold Steve Austin, Rock, John Cena, Shawn, Kurt angle then maybe Taker, Triple H and Ric flair. Stone cold, Cena and Hulk are my favorites.
