nice one. look at her big nose

You are filth

They’re standing up for themselves. Good for them.

If they didn’t invite you and then forcibly carry you to the event, I don’t see how they are forcing themselves on you. Just go to your own straight party and have a blast.

That is how it always starts. Small by small. From "We are harming no one" to "bake my wedding cake, and put Adam loves Steve" or we sue you out of business for discrimination.

Unfortunately, human beings are generally forgetful and shallow.

You are focusing on the ant 🐜 while the elephant 🐘 in the room is looking at you.

One of the primary function of government is to secure lives and properties. This incident is just one out of the many killings going on.

What can a private citizen without powers do when the government with constitutional powers, money, and other resources has become useless and irresponsible?


To whom much is given, much is expected.

It is not about one big action. government is to secure lives and properties This is the simple and pedestrain commentary that does not accomodate the nuances of solutions. The solutions to securing lives and property are a combo meal of different proportions, and citizens definitely have a role to play in the process.

For starters - off the top of my head, the reporting is of limited value and can be expanded. The journalist (who is not govt) covering this piece must comply with adequate crime reporting standards, in the absence of which should be professional censure and enforcement of errant reporting. In order to achieve this, we would need to establish the current rules of reporting and so on to know if additional stipulations should be added. This process would need enagagement and with time the ball would be moved forward in the direction the ensures that wherever crime is reporting useful info is covered. This way, we know the names and location and histories of the culprits.

If there is no databse for culprits, and the NATIONAL DATABASE IS found wanting, the private individuals in Ogun State through collaboration with comp science/data science/statistics students can be engaged to participate in building one. GOVT is still not involved. The database may include culprits' personal details, arresting officers, stage of judicial proceedings, judges attending to cases, prison status, years spent in prison after arrest etc, Still, no GOVT involved.

A lot of small steps can be taken to achieve our aims of a livable society. Automatically delegating every problem to GOVT leads to mental atrophy in solving solvable problems. GOVT is a mechanism with limited capacity to serve our aims. Other alternative, collaborative, parallel mechanism can also be developed to solve our problems.

Na wa ooo.


Nigeria.


Once again government has failed in its responsibility to secure lives of the citizens.

How many more Nigerians have to die before they agree that the country isnt working?

Is it always govt? The sick and fetish mentality displayed is also govt? And the "they", who are you referring to? Some all powerful group to make things right? And has that ever happened? If not, why then, are you still saying GOVT? The so called GOVT is made of Nigerians. It is also possible the evil criminals featured in the story have family in govt or people that have the same mentalities as them in govt. So do you still think it up to Govt

What YOU can do to reduce the misery around you, try to do. Do you volunteer in any educational or health facility? Do you volunteer to train the younger ones on areas that you experienced at? Have you thought of forming an organization that collects data on issues that don't have enough information, thereby enabling more efficient decision making?

Society is reliably built on institutions. Find ways to increase the capacity of institutions around you, thereby enabling them serve you better. For example, in this case, why wasnt the name of ifa revealed. That is a limitation in the reporting process. Journalists and other interesting people could find a way to ensure that names of animals like ifa should always be revealed, and a dedicated follow-up team (possibly an online group) can keep track on developments on the case. There are many other scenarios that can benefit from sustained citizen action.

Only WE can build a society to meets our needs. So try.

I hate it when I hear people die without Jesus Christ

I pity people when they die without the Kalimatul Shahada on their tongues or in their hearts - La illaha illalahu. There is no god worthy of worship except Allah (the most exalted)

May Allah grant Alhaja Ramota mercy, and forgive her her shortcomings

Why do you Christians not go to Christian court to seek redress?
Or don't you have Christian laws that can take care of your differences?

I am a Muslim. I think it pertinent for Muslim lawyers and judges to find mechanisms for dispute resolution at the highest levels. The Emir/Amir is essentially a religious position.

My submission is this: why should an Amir be seeking the resolution of disputes in a non-Islamic Court?

My submissions is this: why should an Amir be seeking the resolution of disputes in a non-Islamic Court?

Inasmuch as there may be valid criticisms about Dangote's business tactics, do you think it is wise to leave productive and commercial endeavours to GOVERNMENT?

Nigeria's Govt has been in operation since 1960, can you provide a list of business entities successfully managed by the Govt of the day.

Also, given the transient nature of Govt and the attendant changes in its main personalities and their interests, I think it is always better for private concerns to direct economic activities.

Moreover corporate culture, reporting standards, public filing on NSE etc provide a measure of oversight - not perfect, but better than an opaque bureaucratic and inefficient Govt operation

I dey knack my husband steady. I have never denied that. He is 6'4 and huge. His energy in bed no be here.


Evidence dey for my knacking, if you get what I mean. But no try feel say you reach.

The things I choose to be silent on, leave them. Make you no cry.

I don't think things need to get to this level. No need.

The supposed pictures of the dark skinned Ghanaian lady are two different people

About time the little girl knows the truth. It'll hurt, It'll be tough but better than peddling lies...

I agree with this. Let her at least face the reality of her mother's passing.

I suspect it would go the account that the original payment came from, then Efcc can continue tracing from there

Jewessgratitud3:
See how he just killed a beautiful woman with his big ugly nose and mouth. I wonder why she settled for such an ugly man with an ugly heart


That is why as a beautiful woman it's not advisable to marry this kind of ugly man because insecurities can make them do and undo. They always feel threatened whenever they see you with other men.

If you are committed to one man, why should you be with other men?

castrogee:
You don't need to shout it! If you read that watery speech, you will know who that is directed to. The man has been very jealous of Otti. But no wahala, 2025 no far again, we will remind him

Remind him of what?

That development is a paced effort? And not showboating like you want him to be doing

Development is the act of taking many small steps that may seem glacial to the simple. So wait and be patient my good man, and assess the salutary Economist on realistic gains he is making, at the next election cycle

Bluearrow:
A lot of us use to think this way when we were your age. Truth is, as u grow older, your orientation begins to change. When u start approaching 40s, seeing your friends kids all getting grown up, I'm sure u might have a rethink.

Your friend's kids all grown up is a reason to plunge into marriage? Marriage is mostly good when there is ample capacity.

NDLEA under Gen. Marwa may be taunted as the only organization working in Nigeria.

They are always in the news for good reasons.

Touted, not taunted

My experience with Kennietech shows how productive endeavours can be done through the Internet. I contacted him through Nairaland, and I had a rewarding experience that I hope will continue. A resourceful, and knowledgeable professional in the area of blog setup and management.

Very reliable, patient and recommendable

Nawaoo! ... my comfortable sitting position

Kobojunkie:
But Muslims worship Mohammed and he too was a man.

No, they do not. It is a clear statement.

The Muslim says: I bear witness that there is no other god but Allah, and Muhammad (PBUH) is the MESSENGER of Allah.

The stress in marriages is more than

So why marry, if it is so stressful?

WhisperedNoise:
I will not be surprised if this explosion matter dies down and nobody is charged for the crime. Naija for show.

It will die down if journalists, citizens etc allow ""other" news to take our attention away from it. At this point, the journalists in Punch, Thisday, Guardian, Vanguard and House Representative for Oyo state should be put on continuous notice
.

I'll be honest. It's been a while since I observed this salat. May Allah make it easy for all of us

The Alfa or Islamic student who committed suicide due to his prayers not being answered will most likely be hanging himself as he died in hell.

We ask Allah to grant us piety and taqwa to withstand trying times!

Same thought here 🙂

Maybe he forgot.. All is well

It is included in the sixth dhikr

KingKO22:
Great insight


But I believe there is no form of Dhikr that's greater than Lailaha Ilalah.


Why did you skipped this in your list.

Even as mentioned in the holy Quran.

Sheidalau Anahu Lailaha Ilalah, Wal malaika, wahulu lihilmi qaima bilqisti Lailaha Ila huwa liazisu liakimu.

Jasaka Lau Arian for this additions too especially the Ya-salijalali walihkram

L
I can feel it already through the thorough explanation. All are great Dhikr

Lailaha Ilalah is included in the sixth dhikr

Barakallahu feek.

Alhamdulillahi, I know all of them. I'll repeat more often
