God did not allow your photo to upload

It's a 4 year old link.

Your fictional god is cluttering your thinking.

Ecbatana:
I loved when Bellamy played for Liverpool. I remember clearly how he bullied Barcelona players in one of the champions League knock out matches.

Bellamy was rubbish.

Farki:
Because of religion and upbringing, making learning about sex education taboo and culture of having as many kids as possible.

A society that makes information a taboo is a doomed society.

The north is burning. Where is their beloved son Buhari?

malcom1X:
What's wrong with having 5 to 6 kids? Just asking.

It takes a lot of time, patience, emotional intelligence and material resources to raise one child, not to speak of five. Typically, people who think that it is normal to have 5 children lack most, if not all, of those traits.

stevmatt15:
101% Truth.
Just marry and maybe your wife is unable to have kids, then you will know if you married her for Love or procreation.
Genesis 9:7
"Be fruitful then and multiply, teem over the earth and subdue it!"
Genesis 9:1
"God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, 'Breed, multiply and fill the earth."
Genesis 1:27-28
[27]"God created man in the image of himself, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them.
[28]God blessed them, saying to them, 'Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and subdue it. Be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven and all the living creatures that move on earth."

The earth is already full of people and Africans do a bad job of taking care of kids.

EVILFOREST:
What about INDIA and CHINA
CHINA has similar Land Mass with the US and Canada...
CHINA is 1.5 Billion.
INDIA is 1.3 Billion
US is 310 million.
CANADA is 36 million.

Meanwhile these COUNTRIES are 10 Times bigger than Nigeria.
..... and NIGERIA is 200 Fucking Million.
We are Finished. .... Situation can only get worse

Even worse none of those countries has a population that has doubled in 30 years like Nigeria. And even now Nigerian women refuse to embrace family planning.

EVILFOREST:
Correct
BABY MAKING CONTINENT with ASIA

Which Asia?

Asians aren't having 5/6 children anymore. Only Africans are foolish enough to do such in the age of contraceptives.

Stupid people.

SageMK:
Is he insinuating Africans are incapable of love?

Yes. The implication of what he is saying is that Africans have no room for love.

Forever in 'survival' mode.

pDudd:
So that when the woman calls police, be will have evidence. He is a smart one. He is acting from past experience with Nigerian women in US.

Fixed.

They are ALL like this. Doesn't matter which country.

When it's your money it becomes "what is 300?"

Do you think she would saying such if he spent her money?

Inferno001:
My brother, at this moment the naming is over and you have spent what you can afford and nothing can change it..it is only natural for some women to want to show off and I won't blame her for that but here is the thing..sit her down and apologize not because you did wrong but because you want peace..promise her you'll celebrate the child's birthday better and she will draw the plan and you'll give her whatever will be needed to make it her taste after all the baby is yours also and if not for the period we're in you would have loved to do more...just say this for peace to reign and make her feel she is right..a happy good woman makes a happy home my brother...

You shouldn't capitulate to unreasonable demands.

This man did the right thing. He looked at his budget and spent that which he could afford.

Had he spent all of his money on this one ceremony and couldn't pay the other bills this woman would screaming up and down about how 'useless' he is.

OP, don't mind her, just ensure that the things that are genuinely important are taken care of. Some people will complain about the sun coming up.

That guy is trash.

As are a lot of Nigerian men.

Marrying/impregnating women to get visa? Lowest of the low.

Everything in this country is done for the sake of political appeasement. That's why there's an airport in Katsina.

Build decent roads and a comprehensive rail network and you won't need airports every 100 km.

Renida:
You're Akwa Ibom. Let me speak to you as an elder. Dismiss that love immediately and go do your mother's bidding. I won't state my reasons. You were told o

You don't have a reason to state.

Stop lying to the man.

Tobechuckwu:
U said churches don't care about their members, please how much is ur offering in a year that u are running ur mouth?
Churches have been Donating nd giving their members foodstuffs since the start of lock down.
Go and join other religions to see what they are doing to their members.
Check out other religions to see what they've done so far?
Churches here nd there are the best thing to happen to Nigeria as a country, remove the impact of churches nd see what will be left of Nigeria.

LOL.

You are delusional if you think that supplementing the already superstitious population with more fanciful tales and more foolish practices has been helpful.

If it wasn't clear before, it should now.

These churches exist for their own benefit, they do not care about the members only how much money they will drop in the offering basket.

naijanative:
Two weeks quarantine requirement is just to wait to see if the infected will start having symptoms. Unfortunately, many are asymptomatic, and never show signs of the disease throughout infection period.

The best thing to do is to repeat the test after a few days, 3-5 days, anyone infected will test positive to PCR test, whether symptomatic or asymptomatic. This should be standard. UK's isolation time is even one week.

We in Nigeria copy and do dumb things.

The UK is a terrible example. They have the most deaths in Europe and its growing.

Many people there are still not taking it seriously there, some are throwing parties in their homes.

Two weeks isolation is right.

iamvictorbassey:
I honestly low-key want this COVID19 shìt to Fück Nigeria and Africa up (Me inclusive). Yes. I really do.


So that when we tell northerners that God doesn't take care of Children, they'll believe.

So that when I tell my friends that your prayers and tithes doesn't do shìt, they'll believe.

So that when you tell Nigerians something exists from the angle of a learned person, they'll believe and stop arguing.

So that when next we emphasize the need for health care budget being reasonable, legislators will agree.

In my mind, the thing is not even doing well enough. Too slow for my liking.

I want the remaining Africans who'll survive, understanding the concept of cause and effect. Understanding that we pay too much attention to non priorities like religion, ethnicity, hairstyle, greetings, dressing, tattoo, choice of food, choice of dress sense, etc. While neglecting essentials.

Covid here is too slow.

Disclaimer: Don't bother quoting me, I don't reply. I post my opinion, you post yours.

I hope it sweeps through and gets rid of the older generation and all those useless 'big men' with their pot bellies and brazen ignorance.

Otherwise I agree with much of what you said.

Hopefully it will stress to the majority the importance of power, water, telecommunications over superstitious nonsense and juvenile tribalistic squabbles.

HeadNigga:
Corona resetting brains. Now they see the danger the almajiri system poses.

Yes, now that they cannot just leave the country anyhow they are forced to deal with the end result of their neglect.

This coronavirus could be a blessing in disguise.

Racoon:
Meanwhile, the battered Niger Delta & other community wherein you have been doing the exploration & lifting crude oil have been struggling for good life from antiqiuty without anyone hearing their cries

Whose fault is that?

Do they not have LGAs? Do they not have 'traditional rulers'?

What are these people doing with their power?

Realtord43:
When the bible said and i quote "go into the world and multiply"
it does not only mean having children

The situation of covid-19 in Lagos will skyrock rapidly when almost all Lagosians go out
Lagosians cannot observe those instructions

ONLY GOD CAN PROTECT

Only god can protect? What about those who have already died? Why were they not protected?

dipopooo:
Mumu people... Sebi most of them didn't take coro serious initially

Are they any different from the other Nigerians in that regard?

Have you observed how some people want to be standing at your heel in the supermarkets? For wetin?

Iyiataata92:
During elections

Would you trade your life for that of an almajiri, even during election season?

Iyiataata92:
a very bad time to be an almajiri.
Adored during election. Despised during pandemic.
They've never travelled outside the country but the bear the brunt of regular travellers.

I hope the northerners learn from this

When is it good to be an almajiri?

ProfDview1:
Well I have never been to any country other than my country Nigeria ... So I don't have a first hand experience...

You have access to youtube.

Run a search for 'woman assaults police officer', you won't run out of content to amuse yourself with.

ProfDview1:
This woman is a single mother
Yes only single mothers are frustrated like this. That is why I warned my guys to be careful when dating a single mother. They are always frustrated, bad tempered....


If a woman can be slapping a police man like this, only God knows where the husband is now.


But but but
But why slap the woman at first?

Never heard dt any US or UK police slap sumone just like that.. Even though our police are mad, that woman deserves 6 months in prison

Women assault police officers the world over.

Not sure why you think people (women in particular) don't behave stupidly in other countries. It's a very peculiar/juvenile African mindset that I've never understood.

1. You don’t need your pastor to survive
2. Your pastor needs you to survive
3. God will not kill you if you miss church.
4. You can talk to God in your house
5. God will not kill you if you do not give church offering every Sunday
6. God will not kill you and destroy everything you have if you do not give your tithe
7. Your pastor cannot heal every disease
8. Vigils do not benefit anyone, and especially not your neighbors who just want to sleep
9. You can be more mentally productive with a whole month of good night rest rather than a whole month of vigils
10. God does not care about your denomination, He can reach you at home
11. God does not care about your religion. When push becomes shove you find that you don’t care either.
12. Social distancing and religion distancing profits the body and spirit

Your pastor cannot heal ANY disease.

SeverusSnape:
Is he not an 'enemy of the state' again?

More of an 'enemy of the state' than Buhari and El-Rufai?

CAPSLOCKED:
IN ALL MY YEARS ON NAIRALAND, I HAVE NEVER SEEN A MUSLIM ON THREADS OF CHRISTIANS TALKING SHIT ABOUT CHRISTIANITY.

BUT TILL TOMORROW, CHRISTIANS WILL ALWAYS BE ON MUSLIM THREADS TALKING NONSENSE.

CHRISTIANS ARE TROUBLEMAKERS. IT IS THEM THAT COME TO MY HOUSE TO WARN ME THAT I'LL GO TO HELL FOR MY SINS. ON THE STREETS, IN THE BUSES, EVEN IN MY SLEEP.. THEY'RE EVERYWHERE WITH ONE OR TWO THINGS TO SAY TO ME.
BUT MUSLIMS WILL NEVER DO THAT.

IT IS NECESSARY TO PROTECT MUSLIMS ON THIS FORUM BECAUSE CHRISTIANS WILL NEVER LET THEM HAVE PEACE.

While I agree that xtians are noisy, juvenile trouble makers, Muslims who live in and around other Muslims in Islamized areas or countries are just as bad.

It is they who look to stoke up resentment against kufr. It is they who spread rumors against kufr that lead to death and destruction.

OP has a point but Seun doesn't want to die.

Hence the restrictions.

It's sad but that's the truth.

No other religious adherents are as thin-skinned as Muslims.

Millenniumlady:
He might have gotten her pregnant who knows.......just saying

What is a 22 year old doing with a 15 year old.

If we want men who do this to go to prison then the same should happen to women.

paulolee:
nt good bt i think is nothing compared to what our citizens see in the hand of these indians in their poorly equipped factories scattered around the country xpecially in lagos..giving us total slavery with no or less p.p e to work with n peanuts to take home, if u complain dey say its brown collar job n dey are helping our lives since d govt can gv us jobs...expatriates suffering n mocking us in our own countries n d worst part b say na our fellow naija brodas dm de use de frustrate us jus bcoz of money n incentives...d harsh memories den for factory work wasnt funny, na jus for mk man comot 4 ous to gain small respect n avoid see finish n mk man survive since we no wan turn tugs 4 streets bt this days boys don enter streets fully n de bomb sites de cashout big time, cnt blame dm bcox no jobs without connection wey street boys no get n dm de mk daily papers watin factory work no fit gv dm in 10 yrs...who am i to judge dm??

Indians are generally very bad when it comes to treating other human beings well.

That's just how they are.

In the Arabian gulf it is they who send their own people there to be treated like chattel.
