Politics / Re: Senate Summons Ribadu, IGP, Security Chiefs, DSS Over Plateau Killings by musicwriter(m): 9:18pm On Dec 30, 2023
The secret services are busy monitoring and following innocent people around town and have no time to solve the real security challenges facing the country.

I think I'll have to write the president to inform him just how corrupt the secret services. They're using their office to engage in extra-official duties that the government has no idea about- all in the name of money.
Family / Re: Should I Be More Selfish? by musicwriter(m): 2:26pm On Dec 29, 2023
Yemike:
My life have been stagnant for like 4-5 years now. I work in a factory and I also sow clothes.
I've not been able to spend money on myself or to pursue my dream as a result of family responsibilities.
I'm a drop out of FUOYE and I'll so much love to go back to school but the plan has been failing for 2 years now.

I've obtained a part time form from Adekunle Ajasin University Ibadan campus last month hoping to start the new session next year but my problem now is that I have a brother that just finished HND 1, his rent has expired and he'll pay his school fees this January.
I paid his rent and school fees for HND 1 and he has notified me for HND 2.
My fear now is that time us running out for me (I'm 27yrs now) as I sincerely wanted to go back to school but I can't sponsor myself and two siblings.

Should I wait for another year or everybody should carry his cross?

Are you older than them?

Explain everything you said here to them, then chart your personal life course and develop yourself, else you would end up neither developing yourself nor them. Explain everything to them and they'll chart their own course too because whether you help them or not, in future they'll all deny that you helped them.

When things went sour for me, my brothers who used to live with me in my house and whom I quit my own education to help, all denied that I helped them in the past. In fact, the more help you give them now, the more they'll say you didn't help them if things happen to go sour for you in future.

By the way, nothing stops you from finishing your education at NOUN online university if you need a degree/certification. Or pick up a branch of knowledge of your choice and study if without seeking a degree. If you like this choice, go to google and search "US universities that offer free online courses" and you'll find many schools and programs. The only difference between you and those that paid for the program is that you'll get the knowledge but not the degree.

I am speaking from experience.

Politics / Re: Do Not JAPA Before Dangote Refinery Starts. You Might Regret by musicwriter(m): 8:26pm On Dec 28, 2023
Quintessence44:


The Dangote refinery is not about cheap fuel. We know what happens when you sell fuel below world market prices in Nigeria. It gets smuggled out for profits.

The Dangote refinery is about economic and industrial emancipation, job and income growth and development, whereby more and more people will be able to comfortably afford to buy fuel at international market prices.


@bold

In the beginning I had a lot of faith like you that that would be the case, until Dangote and Otedola went bowing to the late queen of England. Then, before you knew it, Cheril Blair, the wife of former British prime minister, Tony Blair had become the director of the refinery. I heard Tony Blair himself has some role there too.

So, forget about economic emancipation because even before the refinery begins, it's already fully in the hands of neo-colonialists.

The next mistake you people make is that you don't remember to factor corruption somewhere in your metrics. Corruption is a huge factor to ignore when analyzing something like this in Nigeria.

Even if the refinery begins production but knowing what I know about neo-colonialism, I'll give it 5-10 years before I can say whether we have a refinery or not.

Tinubu has a good plan for the Nigerian economy. I can attest to that.

Education / Re: Why Do Teachers And Textbook Writers Do This This? by musicwriter(m): 1:07pm On Dec 24, 2023
YourGFsnatcher:

Seems like you've not read Nigerian calculations text books. Have u read Indian text books? Can u see easy they are to follow?

There's a fine line between leading and misleading. Nigerian textbooks and the methods teachers use are failing. Can u say Nigerian students are smarter tha Indian students that it better explained?

How many Nigerian students can successfully pass waec mathematics without help?
Does that not tell you that your intentions are not working? Result is better than intentions.

The fact is that 90% of Nigerian students cannot pass waec mathematics on their won using this your methods. Teaching is different from lecturing... what u are describing is lecturing

Of course, I am aware there's a way to reach too!! There's a way to teach just as there's a way to learn.

I should have added in my previous post that if Nigerian teachers aren't able to lay the clues in such a way that students can easily learn, then ultimately they've failed on their duty too. Both teachers and students must equally fulfill their roles. But then, we already know that education is generally failing in Nigeria.

Education / Re: Why Do Teachers And Textbook Writers Do This This? by musicwriter(m): 11:17am On Dec 24, 2023
YourGFsnatcher:
Why do teachers teach the simple part especially of subjects that have calculations and leave the students to solve the hard part that is unrelated to the simple one they taught?

Same with text book writers. They will give an example with a simple question, but when it comes to excerices, they expect the students to solve harder ones that are not related to the examples they solved.

I don't see that as a way of making the students smart. If you will ask them to solve a problem show them how to solve a problem of same level of difficulty.

Learning should be simple but we want to compicate it.

The result is seen in our graduating students, most EnD up not being able to solve simple problems because they have been confused. If the method is not working, then change it!

That's exactly what the teacher is supposed to do. The teacher is trying to baby-walk you into being able to figure out things by yourself.

As I said in my book, "the teacher is not really teaching you anything, rather the teacher is just giving you a lead".

What the teacher is doing in the classroom is like a stranger meeting you on the road and asking you: how do I get to Oladele Street?

Then, you explain to the asker (student) that "when you get down the street, turn left. You'll get to another street called Azikiwe street. When you get there, turn right, you'll see a five storey building painted blue, turn right, etc until you get to Oladele Street"

Once you (the teacher) has done the above, your job is done. It's up to the stranger (learner) to find Oladele Street by themselves using the clues you gave him/her. The education does not happen in the classroom, rather the education happens in your independent search for Oladele Street. The things you learned on your own is what the education is about.

The purpose of education is to train your mind to learn how to think on it's own i.e to learn how to learn on your own.

Religion / Re: Truly, The Forbidden Fruit Is Sex! by musicwriter(m): 10:52am On Dec 24, 2023
Dtruthspeaker:
Look at it, sex is the only thing and place where we have restriction.

Considering The Law in Genesis 2 before The Law in Exodus, we were free in all things eg we were free to eat food,, clothes, travel, relating with people from any tribe, cars, houses, animals etc

But the only thing that we are not allowed to do is to have sex.

The Commandment even Said "Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

And it is in sex that we tell our liitle children as they are growing "Do not let anybody touch you ooh"

It is in sex we say "no dey touch my pikin like dat/i no like how you dey touch me"

It is in sex and for sex that you will hear women say "if you touch me, you go die"

It is in sex that touching is also cheating in marriage.

And it is in sex thst you are not allowed to have sex outside your marriage.

No, you were not allowed to do anyhow in Africa because before the bible's God, we already had laws of God.

Example; Moses killed someone in Egypt in North Africa and was being chased because he committed the wrongdoing of MURDER, which means that the law "thou shall not kill" as a law of God in Africa, predate Yahweh, Abraham, Moses, etc.

Hahahahaa.

You wrote a book and so?

99% of authors never make any money or impact with their book.

I was waiting to hear- it was a bestseller or it has led to massive opportunities home and abroad.

Also you stopped believing in Jesus

And whatever you believe in now has done what exactly for you?

Neither of the things you mentioned came with tangible benefits

Basically, you wasted our time reading your piece


And who told you the purpose was to make money? I wrote the book and made it free!!

Hmm. You remind me of what I heard in a video game, yep, a video game. Metal Gear Solid: "Life isn't just about passing on your genes. We can leave behind much more than just DNA. Through speech, music, literature and movies... what we've seen, heard, felt... anger, joy and sorrow... these are the things I will pass on. That's what I live for. We need to pass the torch, and let our children read our messy and sad history by its light. We have all the magic of the digital age to do that with. The human race will probably come to an end some time, and new species may rule over this planet. Earth may not be forever, but we still have the responsibility to leave what traces of life we can. Building the future and keeping the past alive are one and the same thing".

I felt this way for a very long time, this is why I never bothered to get married, until I got to know about my lineage, then I have a change of heart. I can comfortably say "I want to get married and raise kids". 👌

I feel one day, you'll have a change of heart.

The game makers are right!!

In 300 years, the only thing that would be remembered of anyone today is the most dominant family name- just one name.

Our family trees are going to diverge to a point that my brothers or sisters or your brothers or sisters children's children children won't even know our children's children children. In fact, they could marry one another and nobody would know. It's happening today!!

The only things that would outlast our children's children children are the movies, books, musics we create today. However, the books we write in English language may not survive because as literature they're not rooted on our culture. But that's a different discussion.

I see. You don't have plans to settle down? Passing on what you know is the best policy, you know.

Yes, it's a good idea passing on one's legacy through children. But it's not actually the best way to do it, let alone that the children would be born into slavery too.

The best way to pass one's legacy is through books, movies, music...... things of that nature. It would have more impact.

I stopped watching TV in 2017.
My best decision ever.

I woke up one morning and decided that I'll never watch TV again in my life. I reasoned that it was a complete waste of time, so I removed my TV from the wall, called someone and asked him to pay anything he has and take it.

Within 3 weeks, I realized I had so much time to think, which is something I prefer to do.

Within a month I started writing a book.

I enrolled in an online university and studied hard. Within that period I thought deeply about Christianity and religions, I researched the history of Christianity and I stopped believing in Jesus.

That's when I became free indeed and my third eyes opened.

Business / Re: Naira Falls To All-Time Low On I&E Window, Hits N1,099/$ by musicwriter(m): 10:12am On Dec 09, 2023
This would mark my first negative comment -so to speak- on the Tinubu administration cause I've been observing.

Someone should tell him that it doesn't matter how much you put the official rate, the black market would always adapt to that, in fact, you're helping to destroy the Naira each time you increase the official rate.

The way things are going now, the Dollar would sell for N2,000/$1 before the end of Tinubu administration. By the way, I predicted that it would sell for N1,000/$1 by the time Buhari hands over. I got it almost right.

The problem isn't the official rate price. The problem is that we're not earning enough Dollar. Period..

If that's the case, it's better to return to the Buhari era official rate. It's better than destroying the Naira.

Release Godwin Emefiele immediately because from what I can see now, Emefiele and Buhari actually did an outstanding job. Anybody that knows him personally should copy him this message.

Note:
This is why the world bank, IMF and other Western interests call for removing government support for local currencies in third world countries.

There was NEVER a Jesus, let alone whether he offended me. Jesus is a malicious fraud by the Roman empire to control their colonies under one religion. It only got to you in Africa because other imperial empires (Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, etc) copied from Rome on how to control slaves.

When the white man worships Jesus and when you a black worships Jesus, you both are not doing the same thing.

The white man is worshiping Jesus from the view point of authority of his God, which has been used to overthrow your own God.

You're worshiping Jesus as a SLAVE but the white man as the MASTER. That's the difference.

Science has found the universe to be fine-tuned for life.
Almost 50 years ago, in 1973, cosmologist Brandon Carter found that the independent constants or laws in physics have one highly unusual characteristic in common— they are precisely the
values needed to establish and sustain a universe capable of producing life. This is another enormous and virtually uncontested proof for a universe that has been carefully designed.

You just copied but don't actually understand what that quote is saying. Otherwise, where did it say that your God, Jehovah Yahweh created the universe?
