Politics / Re: Charly Boy: How Can Tinubu Be 71 When He Was Arrested In 1960 In Chicago by mexite: 9:45pm On Sep 28, 2023
Which of his daughters is 62 years?

The brazen misinformation on Nairaland is appaling.

Chinjo2:
Tinubu claims to be 71 while his daughter is 62 that means Tinubu gave birth to her while he was 9 years old. This explains why what charlie boy said about Tinubu's age could be the truth.
Nigerians should learn to stand by the truth no matter who is involved.
Recently Joe biden son was accused of involving in drugs and fiream. Also, Donald Trump has been accused of several crimes bothering on fraud and bribery.
That is how you know a country that is ready to move forward.
If only Tinubu had sat down jejely after rulling Lagos for 8 years and making himself the king maker all these cases wouldn't have come up.
His quest for power has now caused him this irreparable damage.
I just hope he doesn't slump one day because Atiku is really going all out for him.
Literature / Re: Chimamanda Adichie's 18 Honorary Doctorate Degrees by mexite: 9:02pm On Apr 10, 2023
It's pathetic to read some posts here which are nothing but kenspeckle display of ignorance in a public forum. It's wise to research before posting comment.

Adichie is an outstanding writer and making waves in her trade as a wordsmith. WS has made his mark and they are indelible. No need to compare but if you must compare, you should know that for every junior, there is a senior. And for every child, there are parents (donors). She is still upcoming where WS is, and she is part of the now and the future.

Adichie is still climbing, she would never denigrate the achievements of WS, at least not openly.
Politics / Re: Interim Govt A Plot By APC, DSS To Subvert Election Tribunal, Says PDP by mexite: 9:48am On Apr 03, 2023
How can Buhari who got 12 million votes be declared the winner against Yar'Adua who got over 22 million votes?

The constitution is clear about the conditions to be satisfied to be declared the winner; simple majority and 25% of valid votes cast in ⅔rd of the states in Nigeria (and the FCT). These rules are mutually inclusive and must simultaneously occur.

malcom1X:
My question is this.

If the supreme court interprets in court that the AND FCT means it's not 25% in FCT. According to the constitution.

Can Buhari then sue the supreme court and declare that he won In 2009 against former president Umaru Musa Yar'Adua and so extend his stay in Aso rock or demand for some compensation of sort.
Thos will also mean that they the supreme court were wrong in 2009

I'm not a lawyer na question I dey ask.

This is entirely wrong. Imagine name calling an entire tribe, if it was the other way round, you would start screaming. The same tribe that gave your preferred candidates massive support in the SW region, that LP even won a whole Osun State.

As much as many youths in the Southern region wants Obi, everyone has a choice, and you can't force/bully people to agreeing to yours. It's called a democracy for a reason.

Unfortunately, if you have got to the page where you are directed to pay for IHS fees, you would be unable to edit previous information supplied on your application.
Possible solutions:
1. If you have not paid the IHS and Visa fees yet, you can cancel the current application and start another one afresh.
2. If you have paid your IHS and Visa fees, then you should write a cover letter (pdf) stating what error you made and the correct information. Attach it as part of the documents you are to upload under "Others".

Education / Re: University Admission: UK To Crack Down On Nigerians by mexite: 1:34pm On Nov 26, 2022
The speculation is about international students and not specifically Nigerians but trust our dailies and Nigerian people to make it about us just because a large number of Nigerians emigrated in 2022.

They can only make it stricter to plug some loopholes in the system but not to totally abolish migration via study. Foreigners contribute significantly to their NHS, human resources and even economy.

Politics / Re: Insulting Our Prophet Mohammed Is Our Uncompromising Redline – Adamu Garba by mexite: 9:45pm On May 15, 2022
Since you are looking for justification for the gruesome murder of Deborah even by quoting from the Bible, I will attempt to enlighten you and disabuse your reprobate mind from this line of thought, and to establish that these scriptures have never found a place in Christianity whether in the early times or the contemporary as practiced in many nations today.

In the old testament, the laws and commandments were given to guide the Israelites and there were punishment for violating these laws, some of which came with capital punishment as you quoted in the passages above.

"And according to the law almost all things are purged with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission." (Hebrews 9:22).

However, our God being a merciful one, not just in name but in deed, with full understanding of the weak frame of man (Psalms 103:14) initiated a new covenant through our mediator, Jesus Christ, which is better than the old covenant. Because, despite the strictness of the laws and their heavy penalties, man still continued to break the laws and suffer the consequences. This can be attributed to some fundamental faults in the implementation of those laws by man, and the inherent adamic nature of man

"For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second." (Hebrews 8:7)


Christ came to fulfill and/or accomplish the law in the biggest sacrifice ever known to mankind, that the son of God would give himself as the sacrificial lamb for the sins, blasphemy inclusive, of the world.

"For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes." (Roman's 10:4).

So there was no need to put men to death for sins such as fornication, adultery, blasphemy, and the likes.

Jesus exemplified this in the story of the woman caught in the act of adultery (John 8: 3 - 11). The punishment according to the law for such sin is stoning to death. However, when the accusers came in their usual overzealous manner, such as demonstrated by the murderers of Deborah, he asked them a simple question:

"He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first." (John 8:7b).

Eventually, all her accusers departed and her life was spared.

She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more." (John 8:11)

This is one of the ways Jesus exemplified himself as the fulfillment of the LAW. There are several other examples. Jesus preached and encouraged repentance. He never for once called for the head of anyone, rather he stood and still stands as an advocate before the father for all sinners. But it is unfortunate that many people like you are finding justification for this barbaric act instead of condemning it.

What will you gain from sucking the blood of others? Are you savages or vampires?


WHOEVER KILLS OTHERS IN THE NAME OF THE LORD IS NOTHING BUT A MURDERER. KNOW THIS AND KNOW PEACE.


System202:
Yes tell them Adamu Garba, kanu kills us they support him,when they kill they are always right but when they hurt us and we retaliate we Evil, barbaric

13 Then the Lord said to Moses: 14 “Take the blasphemer outside the camp. All those who heard him are to lay their hands on his head, and the entire assembly is to stone him. 15 Say to the Israelites: ‘Anyone who curses their God will be held responsible; 16 anyone who blasphemes the name of the Lord is to be put to death. The entire assembly must stone them. Whether foreigner or native-born, when they blaspheme the Name they are to be put to death.
LEVITICUS 24:13-16

6 If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying, “Let us go and worship other gods” (gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, 7 gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other), 8 do not yield to them or listen to them. Show them no pity. Do not spare them or shield them. 9 You must certainly put them to death. Your hand must be the first in putting them to death, and then the hands of all the people. 10 Stone them to death, because they tried to turn you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 11 Then all Israel will hear and be afraid, and no one among you will do such an evil things If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying, “Let us go and worship other gods” (gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, 7 gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other), 8 do not yield to them or listen to them.

If I may ask, have you ever voted before in Nigeria?

Remman:
The votes belongs to the candidate and not to the party otherwise parties wouldn't present any candidate during elections. The party is just a platform for a candidate to be presented to the public who then cast their vote TO WHOM THEY DESIRE, because any party without a candidate can't be voted for. INEC is wise. However, This judgement means that we have dead brain judges in this country. Their brain only work when money enters their accounts.

But she didn't slump when her husband was putting God knows how many people into undeserved detention and mishandling.

She didn't slump when her husband, a public servant, was receiving billions of naira and building/buying slush properties.

Maybe she could have prevailed over her hubby to end his dark side of life before nemesis caught up with him. I hope Kyari gets the justice he deserves.

Politics / Re: Governors Wike, Seyi Makinde, Ortom, Ishaku Are All Muslim-Haters - MURIC by mexite: 12:13pm On Feb 10, 2022
This man is always crying wolf where there is none. He appears to be a Muslim supremacist and a religious fanatics. He likes to be in the news always by blowing issues out of proportion and raising alarm for fire where there isn't smoke. Scientific assertions are backed by adequate statistical evidence but this professor chooses to use one for many approach as a convenient means to support his penchant for national divide through religion.

If you check through the list of commissioners in the Oyo State government, you would see that Muslims are well represented. So why does he categorize Makinde as a Muslim hater? In other states where Muslims form the majority, has he ever spoken about the oppression of people of other faith in such states? He that must come to equity must come with clean hands.

We understand that you are an unrepentant jihadist, but don't throw caution to wind sir by constantly fanning the embers of division among the Yorubas.

The only academic career information about him is captured in his bio on Wikipedia

"Pantami lectured at Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University in Information Technology before joining the Islamic University of Madinah as Head of Technical Writing in 2014"

Promoting him to the rank of a professor at FUTO begs for some questions?

1. Did he transfer his service from his last known workplace to FUTO?

2. What research and polemic contributions has he contributed to the research/academic community of FUTO and the body of science in recent years?

Or maybe the professorship is not an academic/theory-based as we know.

Congratulations to him notwithstanding.

Ask majority of guys complaining today, many invested in shitcoins that were created on BSC just like the hay days of ICO on Ethereum blockchain.

Evenif you know the fundamentals, I have come to know that Cryptos are majorly scams. This is why governments are trying to either control them or ban them. Imagine the volume of money Nigerians put in different cryptos at the beginning of this year and suddenly every crashes. It means the country where those funds were gotten from will suffer more. So are you guys now seeing that it was good the CBN banned cryptos?
