The only thing I dey look na the fine flower behind him.

Pretty lady.

Reelz:
Only if u knew d mindset of these Islamic terrorists.. they see u all as infidels that should not exist.
Continue to pamper islamic terrorists while they plan on how to unleash allah's jihad on u.

The topic is definitely a click bait.

Sweden has banned heavy religious veils for Muslim women like the Burkka and Niqab effective on the 1st of January, 2025.

They're clamping down on Islamists and sending them back to their shithole.

Wordson:
that is in the past. Madrid can not beat Liverpool anymore. It's time for Madrid to collect from Liverpool

We've heard this just before 2 recent Champions League finals 😆 🤣

kkins25:
nah!! It just means, you still think demons can possess people, which is fine.

Nope, I don't.

Kobojunkie:
Dude... From where I sit, there are simply
► those who believe in whatever deity of choice
► the agnostics whom I regard as fence-sitters
► and the atheists who don't believe in any defined deity of any kind

Someone who claims to be an agnostic believer or an agnostic atheist is simply an undecided individual who is too anxious or afraid to comfortably sit on the fence and own his place on it. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Nope, agnostics are humble enough to know that they do not possess ultimate knowledge regarding the existence of things.

Yes, they can.



A lot of them can.

Kobojunkie:
Keep telling yourself that then!

I've modified the post.

There are agnostic Christians, agnostic atheists etc

They're in the middle. Not far right, not far left. Classic skeptics who question norms in search of answers.

Agnostics Christians do not claim that they know or are very sure of the existence of the Christian God like the average Christian but lean towards Christianity.

Agnostic atheists on the other hand do not claim that they're 100% sure God doesn't exist, we lean towards atheism while waiting for genuine evidence to counter our belief.

Kobojunkie:
Atheists do not believe in the existence of a God or gods. This does not in fact mean there are none, but rather that they choose to believe there are none.

Saying you are both agnostic and you are an atheist at the same time is trying to have your feet apart in two contrary spaces.

Atheism does not contradict Agnotism in anyway.

Atheism is " I don't believe in unicorns because there's no evidence of its existence".

Agnosticism is "I am not Sure that Unicorns exist"

Agnostic Atheism is "I am not Sure that Unicorns exist therefore I don't believe in unicorns because there's no evidence of their existence".

kkins25:
What's bad about Christianity?

Many things but at least it's currently safer than Islam.

Kobojunkie:
An agnostic atheist? You are just an agnostic abeg.. probably too scared to pick a side... own it and move on!

Lol, nope.

It means that I believe that it is currently unknown if there's a God, therefore I don't believe in a God.

If I identified as just an atheist, it would mean that I simply believe that there's no God.

Illusioneffect:
I'm a practicing Christian who was an atheist most of my life so I get you🤷‍♂️

Why did you convert to Christianity?

IMAliyu2:
Pretty much.

I find myself constantly fighting the urge to adopt an anti-theist position even.

I'm Agnostic Atheist.

Started questioning things as a teenager. I'd go on social media platforms and argue for hours against religion. I hated it back then.

Now, I'm indifferent. No arguments with theists. I just want money, a blissful career and a sweet girl.

budaatum:
You enrolled in Nairaland University (the religious section) and learnt to use your brain.

Personally, that section is where everyone should start their Nairaland adventure.

Questioning religion as a teenager led me to the religion section of Nairaland.

I think anyone who is agnostic/ atheist in Nigeria has a higher IQ than most of the country's population.

IMAliyu2:
In 2016, I won't lie, I was in support of trump winning, and the underlying motivations were:
1. I believed that trump would stop US involvement in the middle east, to stop killing Muslims.
2. I believed trump would punish gay people or reverse gay marriage rights in the US.

I was 19, and my thoughts on these were based of my religious beliefs at the time. I also considered myself a "moderate" Northern Muslim.

Among the 2 reasons given, I cared about number 2 more than 1. Why was I homophobic?
Just a gut disgust to the idea of 2 men being intimate.
Why did I care what people did in private?
Religious rational was, that if it's allowed then there will be sometype of vague corruption in the world. What was this corruption? I don't know, I didn't think that far.
And also That God would get angry and punish us with natural disasters and other vague punishments like bad government and economy, if allowed.

I don't know what it is but, bigotry blinds you and r*tards you.

Took me discovering NL & agruing in the religious section with atheists & christians on here, forcing me to start attempting to make rational arguments for my beliefs to start noticing holes in the logic of my previous religious bigotry, before I had to reevaluate things.

I assume a lot of Nigerian are operating on some similar logic, and that's informing their reason for supporting trump.

I hope you're free from the chains of religion?

cococandy:
I’m convinced these Nigerian Trump fans are secretly America’s haters. They know he’ll bring the country to its knees and they want that.

Because it doesn’t make sense any other way.
No one is that slow

I guess you underrate Homophobia, Misogyny, religious extremism, Nationwide low Iq, bigotry, substandard basic education that have devastated Sub-Saharan Africa.

9 out of 10 people in my neighborhood hate Obama.

8 out of 10 people in my neighborhood love Trump.

It wouldn't make sense to anybody with a 3-digit IQ so I understand your plight trying to comprehend why most Nigerians love Trump.

Oh yeah, they love America more than their native land and genuinely think Trump is the best for their beloved country. These people wouldn't mind Trump sending 100 of missiles into Abuja today as long as they're not living there but would call for vengeance if an American soldier was gunned down at Gaza.

Nigeria has experienced a default downward trajectory since 1960, which literally means that 2010 will be worse than 2000 and 2020 will be worse than 2010, and so on.

For instance, with a consistent balance of payments deficit for decades due to far more imports than exports, exchange rates are bound to worsen. With subsidies on petroleum products we couldn't refine, PMS prices were supposed to increase geometrically whenever a new government stopped a fraction of the fuel subsidy.

Since the critical thinking of the average Nigerian is below the globally accepted average, Nigerians simply attribute our economic failures as a people to a new regime. It is why an Aisha Yesufu who called Jonathan's Government the worst would turn out and call Buhari's government she voted for the worst Government ever until Tinubu.

Let’s get to the facts.

In 1994, petrol was 5 naira per litre.

In 2004, petrol price peaked at 65 naira per litre (1200% increase) with subsidy.

In 2014, petrol price peaked at 97 naira per litre (49.23% increase) with subsidy.

In 2024, petrol price averaged 1200 naira per litre (1,137% increase) without subsidy.

Let's face it, the current price of petrol per litre is very natural without subsidy. In fact, it's not as bad as the 1200% increase that happened between 1994 and 2004, even with subsidy.

If we check exchange rates, we will see similar results.

No, he can't.

He is not qualified to contest by virtue of the Nigerian Constitution as amended.

abbey621:
If anybody other than Trump was running as the Republican candidate, Harris would have won.......Most of una still dey underestimate the power of Trump's influence......The guy na magician!

More like if anyone other than a Woman or black person, or a black woman was running as the Democrat candidate, Trump would have lost.


Biden displayed signs of slurred speech and onset Dementia when he won an incumbent Trump with more than 3 million popular votes and a fine margin of electoral college votes. Hilary Clinton and Kamala Harris performed way better than Biden during the debates of the elections both women lost.

Any white male can defeat Trump.

Trump has only won elections against 2 women in a heavily bigoted America.

America is a country founded on bigotry.


It is where you hear things like homeschooling, defunding public education, the right for civilians to posses military grade weapons in 2024, anti-abortion propaganda and the rest.

Kamala lost because she is a woman of black heritage.


Any pure white male with her resume would have won before 9pm.

Kudos to Western Europe for investing in a developed and quality population.

He Didn't do the push ups properly.

Rip, old soldier.

ehikwe22:
We all look up to the collapse of America because of the unprecedented atrocities they've committed in the last century.

If you look up to them in a different way, na only you and your fellow ignorants

They've been a great world police since the 2nd world War.

They've promoted freedom and liberty across the world which often includes saving oppressed citizens from despotic regimes.

Most of the despots are charismatic figures which doesn't sit well with their admirers, hence, their admirers always criticize America for putting an end to terror.

Yes.

Bianca Ojukwu has the right to campaign for the release of Nnamdi Kanu as a minister.



A President spent billions on a programme to free terrorists in prison, rehabilitate them and give them reputable jobs, including recruitment into our country's army.


If a President can campaign for gun wielding insurgents why can't a Minister campaign for the man wey talk him own with mouth?

China will surpass America in the near future because of the hurdles a Chinese must evade to become the Head of the country.


The exams you write to even lead the smallest unit in the communist party hard pass wetin dragnet dey give us make we solve without calculator 😆

A nepo baby born with a silver-spoon who has filed multiple bankruptcy reliefs cannot lead a province in China.

Trump is a narcissist who wants everything his way even though it means the collapse of a great country we all looked up to. He wants everything on a platter of gold like his father's inheritance was served to him.

Fvck Trump.

Up Kamala.

We're winning.

senatordave1:
I am not Garfield

Okay

Can you quote his original account for me please?

I want to ask him something.

Only in Nigeria.


Only in Africa.

If you don't trust other tribes, why fight so hard to be their countryman?

MASTAkiLLAh:
I called it correctly once again

https://www.nairaland.com/8258048/president-tinubu-orders-immediate-release

Yaya

I'm Agnostic.

Religion is fraud.

The Accusers/ complainants must come out to proof their case so that the Accused/ Defendant is not set free due to the absence of compelling evidence. The Law is not emotional and Diddy is rich enough to afford the best lawyers that can free him based on technicalities.

O.J. Simpson walked free.

Proof beyond reasonable doubt is the burden of proof to be discharged in a criminal matter.

senatordave1:
He was guilty,he admitted to it

You're Garfield, right?


I want to have a private discussion, please.

There's something I want to talk about.

Everyone knows that the only reason Onnoghen was removed was to ensure that the Supreme Court and by extension the judiciary was headed by a Muslim from Northern Nigeria before the 2019 Presidential Election.


If he was in the military, he would have been compulsorily made to retire so that a General from the North can assume office.

However, there's no such thing in the NJC so accusing him of failure to declare his assets was the only way they could remove him.

Why do we call Nigeria a just country when a person who had served the country for years can only assume a position reserved him/her, as the most senior official, by law if and only of he is from the tribe of the President?

Many experienced Generals in combat are retired so that inexperienced ones can "save" the President from an imaginary coup.

DeLaRue:
No.

This is the most reformist government in the history of Nigeria.

Worst. Government? Mr Jonathan's government will be contention.

How the man's government wasted over $100 billion dollars in 6 years is a mystery.

He's reformist but the nepotism, corruption and flamboyant spending affecting his administration
have reduced citizen's trust.

He should address that.

To enjoy later as a nation, we have to suffer now. It's the story of every successful nation. There's no other way except Abracadabra.

Tinubu is trying to end the economic downward slope that's why times are hard.

However, the problem we are facing is that in other nations that suffered to enjoy later, the suffering was from top to bottom.

For instance, in China, the politicians and public servants rode bicycles like other Chinese.

The same should apply here in Nigeria. Do not tell people to convert their cars to CNG-powered vehicles while the Federal Government and State Government are buying new petrol-powered vehicles for themselves, legislators, judges, and other public servants.

Lead by example, and perhaps the people will trust the process.

Yes, Nigeria is a poor nation. But nobody would believe that if the leaders act rich.
