Yes, that's what Muhammad told them to do in their holy book the Koran. This's completely in line with the teaching of islam.

Politics › Re: Jonathan To EFCC: Go After Tinubu, Atiku, Amaechi, Others Secretly by mrrock:
APC = corruption!. An opposition party that was formed yesterday outspending an incumbent government by ratio of 5:1. APC have spent over $150 Billion on adverts and propaganda campaigns just to remove Jonathan from office.

Where do they get the money for this massive nationwide adverts?.
Politics › Re: Fayose: Atiku, Northern Leaders Have Withdrawn Supports For Buhari by mrrock: 5:11pm On Mar 13, 2015
Buhari is certainly sick and there's a good chance what happened to Ya'rdua will happen to him. History will repeat itself, no doubts.

ROSSIKE:
Do you know you can set up a restaurant that serves this menu? And make a killing? Just give it a bold name, give it swag, proper advertising etc, and spruce up the dishes one way or another, (maybe add complimentary sides like spicy meat/fish etc) and you're made. I GUARANTEE YOU THAT. In the US they have a restaurant chain called IHOP (International House of Pancakes). Their dishes center around pancakes of various types, plus menu options like omelettes etc. They make a roaring trade!! It's all about identifying with, and catering to, the grassroots. In Nigeria - long fixated on foreign ideas - the market for indigenously creative businesses like this is huge and largely untapped.
I think I've seen something like that in Benin republic.

What this data proves is; IBB, Abacha, Obasanjo dealt a big blow to the Nigerian economy. Especially, Obasanjo. How could he have met the exchange rate at N21.89/per $ but left at more than N100/ per $?. Obasanjo is such a shameless man to even be talking today.
Politics › Re: Fashola Blames Jonathan For Lekki-ikoyi Robbery by mrrock: 12:06pm On Mar 13, 2015
Fashola is not the governor of Lagos state. He's just an errand boy doing boy-boy for Tinubu. He just say what his master want him to say, without thinking. The REAL governor of Lagos state is Ahmed Tinubu, every adult Lagosian know it.

Can you imagine Fashola couldn't even influence his own successor?. Fashola was against Ambode's selection as APC candidate but Tinubu told him to shut up his mouth like a baby. And he obeyed being the loyal errand boy he is.

TechAfrikico:
In this current power crises that some African Countries are facing especially Nigeria, Ghana, and South Africa, the need for a good phone that offers great power capacity and value for money is essential and that’s why I have listed six types of mobile phones I think every Nigerian, Ghanaian, and South African must have. Read More..

http://techafrikico.com/2015/03/12/every-african-must-have-one-of-these-phones/
Ghana and South Africa will not have any problem charging their phones, unless in some really remote villages where there're no power lines.

The only thing Tinubu and his party have got is propaganda! propaganda! and more propaganda!.

Nairaland General › Re: PHOTO: What Will You Do If You See This In Your Room? by mrrock: 9:02am On Mar 12, 2015
That money look big but when I calculated it it's not as big as it looks. If every bundle there is N100,000, that money will amount to N270 million.
Politics › Re: Jonathan Accuses Buhari Of Gay Pledge To World Powers Over Election by mrrock: 7:08am On Mar 12, 2015
Buhari is a very desperate power hungry man. He can say anything to rule. He can do even the unthinkable just to rule. Born to rule mentality indeed!.

@iamNotAlone.
Even if you're taken isn't an excuse why men would not approach you in your office. So, that isn't an excuse.

It's either you're very rude person or overly very proud of yourself. This are turn-offs to men, which explains why you're not friendly with any of them. Intact, they believe you're not a marriage material or a friendly person (if you were you've already had one or two of them as friend). You're the problem not men.

I for one wouldn't be friend with you based on the deductions I've just made from your post.

Just keeping it real.
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Should I pay a whooping sum of 500k to get a job? Please Advice!!!.... by mrrock: 6:48pm On Mar 11, 2015
@nurexfutmx.

Why were you saving the money?. Where you saving it so you could use it to bribe your way for a job you don't qualify?. Your type is the reason a man without a school certificate is vying for office of the president of Nigeria.
What stop you from applying for jobs yourself?

I don't have any pity for your being scammed of N150k. I wish you get scammed next time you want to get a job you don't qualify.
Politics › Re: Nigerian Elections: What If Buhari Wins? By Max Siollun by mrrock: 11:51am On Mar 11, 2015
If Buhari wins this election, we will make the country ungovernable for him. We'll just pay him back. However, I don't see him winning. An illiterate can never rule Nigeria again. #NeverAgain

Very good business, if it's in Lagos.
Politics › Re: List Of Presidents Who are/Were 70 Years And Above. by mrrock:
1. While you have listed ages here you didn't take into consideration the population of those countries. You have no idea what a complex task it is to run a large country like Nigeria. Countries like Cuba you listed there is just like one local government (LGA) in Nigeria. A good student randomly pulled from university of Nigeria Nsuka can rule Cuba successfully.

2. You never also tell us whether any of those presidents was an illiterate like Buhari. Nnamdi Azikiwe and Awolowo were highly educated people. Their educational qualification was their selling point unlike Buhari who have nothing to show academically.

Politics › Re: PICTURE: Jonathan Campaign Team Buying Petrol In Blackmarket by mrrock:
I see nobody buying fuel there. As you can see they're just driving by and probably just sampling opinion on blackmarket prices. But, even if they're buying fuel on blackmarket, it have been the norm since 1983 when Buhari was president.
Goodluck Jonathan have effectively reduced the frequent occurrence of fuel scarcity more than any president that I know of.
Politics › What Has Buhari Done For Yorubas? by mrrock(op):
I'm not interested in playing politics here rather I want to know the truth.

I'm 40 year old. May be I was too young to know about Buhari's contribution to the development of South western Nigeria for all the time he was in position of authority.

I'm aware Buhari have been minister of petroleum. I'm also aware Buhari have been the president of Nigeria in the 80's.

Babangida built the third mainland bridge in Lagos, so I heard.
Obasanjo started some power projects in South west, though he didn't finish them.
Jonathan is constructing Lagos Ibadan express road.
Jonathan have approved about 4 or more new universities in Yorubaland.

I want to know what Buhari have done for Yoruba's for all the time he was in power. What has Buhari done for Yorubas?.
Politics › Re: Nigerians Question Why TV Stations Are Going Up In Flames? by mrrock: 3:23pm On Mar 09, 2015
ochejoseph:
Yesterday arsonist set Fire to ITV Benin that was after Oshiomole withdrew the station's accreditation and accused it of biased reportage


Today AIT has also gone up in flames in a similar fashion! 


Considering the fact that Tinubu et al are in court seeking a sharp- sharp Judgement  to  ‎stop the airing of a documentary he considered inimical to his political career! 

Is there anything APC is not telling us about the strange flames! 

Nigerians are already asking Questions
APC is a terrorist organization parading itself as a political party. You have to be violent to be a member. In 2011 Buhari while campaigning in Katsina told his supporters to "kill" anybody that stand against their will. Unfortunately, many youths cops members stood on their way and was killed as instructed by Buhari. Right now they have also threatened to form a parallel government, if for any reason they lose the election.

You don't need T.B Joshua to tell you who's responsible for the burnings.

Lagos state generates more money internally than some 10 states put together can do. Not adding monthly funds from Abuja. There's absolutely no reason why a Lagos state Governor should not perform, whether Fashola or someone else.

Having said that, he tried. But, that may just be because he have the advantage to do so. And, if only Tinubu had allowed him free hand to govern, he would have done even better.
