Politics / Re: Checkout The Price Of Wike Outfit (picture) by nairamaniac: 9:41pm On Jul 02
MrBrownJay1:


Versace doesnt make cheap clothing nor cheap sleeves like that... if/when Versace adjust a piece of clothing, it will look exactly like the original (thats why sometimes it takes weeks before they can adjust the garment for you).

I don't think we can conclude that Wike's own sleeves are cheap.
It's just more of different from the other one.

I have also seen Versace and other top designers twerking designs for each version of their realease.

MrBrownJay1:
any smart person can easily see that the jacket that Wike is wearing is a fake Chinko version....hold on...let me point out the obvious mistakes:


It may not be fake. Every designer makes deferent designed&colours for a particular version of release.
They could tweak a particular version into different styles.

What I know is that the cloth doesn't just look good on him.
Crime / Re: Sam Larry Constantly In Shadow Of Mohbad’s Death by nairamaniac: 4:31pm On Jun 29
LadyExcellency:


Bullying is the fastest route to depression and death.
You are right.


But it seems like mobad provoked them to being bullied at some instances.

Seems like mobad had disappointed sam Larry at some point before what we saw in the video that Sam Larry came with the belt.

It says cities. Villages are not included.

You are very correct. Using world-standard, all these places we call cities in Nigeria e.g Onitsha, benin, Awka, ijebu ode, warri, lokoja, etc are all villages.

I Totally disagree with your viewpoint...

And I am not arguing on your behalf

So let Rachel Breathe...

She is not the wife of Osama bin laden
Then it's zero-zeto goaless draw.

Names are very symbolic...

Humans are very specific.....


There are no infallible personality here on earth..

So it would be wrong to judge someone harshly because of a few flaws that they exhibited during their lifetime...

What mankind tends to do is to weigh the good against any perceived evil deeds of an individual to determine whether such a character deserves to be mentioned long after their lifetime....

Rachel falls into such category...

And that name would be echoed throughout the existence of mankind.
You are arguing on my behalf. Thanks.

A couple could specifically name their daughter Rachael, cos on lovely antie, called Rachael was very symbolic in their lives.

Choosing a name for your offspring doesn't always express solidarity to the
Bad/good behaviours of the first person to have ever beared the name.


I can go with you with this for the next 30years. Since you want to be stubborn with arguments.

You should disagree if all the namers have confided in you on reasons/inspiration behind giving those particular kinds of names to their offsprings.

It means that despite the perceived flaws of the individual, there are elements of good in the life of that individual that overshadows and supercedes their Flaws.

It means that a crowd of people can follow the 2nd follower, 3rd follower , 4th follower without a direct connection with the originator.

What I'm saying is that most people duplicating names have more connection to others who have bared that same name, more than they have with the very first person who bared the name.

Adolph Hitler may have been a very bad person. But if I had a very nice uncle called Adolf, I could name my child ADOLF.
Simple!

Meaning that Buhari was not totally bad after all ....
No, it means giving a similar name to someone does show support/solidarity.

Re-Opening her case file for what exactly ?

If Rachel was such a bad character, why do we name our daughters after a bad character.

Please "Allow Mama Joseph to Breathe"

Renaming someone after a past bad person doesn't reflect a scorecard of the person's past.

This year alone I know of 2 sets of Muslim couples who named their sons Buhari.

SlavaUkraini:


You too have done some great things in your lifetime..

And it would be wrong to harshly judge the woman and man that brought you into this world because of their minor flaws and the mistakes they made..

Rachel did not Kill anyone...

Rachel did not mastermind the Fall of the Twin Towers..

Rachel was not the leader of a Terrorist Organisation...

So your Osama bin laden comparison does not add up.

Whatever the OP wrote up there as her flaws is common amongst most women.

If you think I am lying, ask your wife or mum.

If Rachel was a total disaster, Jacob would not waste 14 years of his life waiting for her hand in marriage.

There are good qualities that Jacob saw in her that made him to hustle for another 7 years just to marry her.

Today you can name your daughter Rachel but will not dare name your daughter Jezebel or Delilah...

Why is that ?

Because Rachel is not a Total disaster, she only had her flaws like everyone of us .



I wasn't comparing Rachael to Osama bin Laden.

I was only trying to make you know that anyone can be individually judged irrespective of great-things his or her child later did in the world.

What you had said that she shouldn't be judged becos she gave birth to Joseph, wasn't a good reason to keep silent whenever her case file is opened.

Mind u, there is nothing wrong is going thru the history of someone, especially if the issues comes up.
It's not like we are all physically flogging her here on nairaland.

SlavaUkraini:
She is still the Mother of Joseph...

The Greatest of the 12 Sons...

She gave birth to Quality and not Quantity.

So Allow Rachel to "Breathe", forget her Flaws.
Osama bin Laden gave birth to some great children who did great things in their lives.
So according to you, we should forget all Osama bin Laden's flaws/atrocities?
Politics / Re: NDLEA Bursts Snake-guarded Shrine Used For Storing Drugs In Edo by nairamaniac: 3:56am On Jun 24
osazsky:
from the write up it should be a sculpture of a snakes....so that people will think it's a shirine..so when officials destroyed it they found drugs inside..this is poor reporting from hungry bloggers
I don't think the write-up gave an impression that it was a sculpture of snakes.
Besides the write-up particular said "BIG BLACK SNAKE". Meaning it was 1 snake and not many snakes.

Also, the write-up said It was the walls that were destroyed in order to find the drugs. Where did u get the impression that it was inside the snake(sculpture) that the drugs were found?

Feldie:
Mumu liar. She doesn't know how to do transfer or what? You think this is still 1990?
You just hear of "blank cheque" and decided to make up braindead story when was the last time you saw anybody with a cheque?
When someone says "blank cheque", it doesn't necessarily mean that a *physical cheque* was in place.


The word *blank cheque* is also a *FIGURE OF SPEECH* to mean *I WOULD GIVE OR PAY YOU ANUTHING YOU WANT*.

I meant one small pack of noodles was sold for ₦30 then, while one large egg went for ₦40, so with ₦100, you could buy 2packs of noodles.



I'm telling you!



I am anti-apc. But in 2020, ndomi wasn't 30naira.

I was telling someone the other day that to drink garri with its accompaniments nowadays, one would need at least ₦500.



Only as recent as 2020/21, with as little as ₦100, one could buy 2 packs of noodles and one large egg.
Did u mean 1hundred naira?

You mean just 4 years ago, 2 noodles was 1hundred naira?

I don't see anything bad in it. It's a normal and acceptable thing to lend your plane to another person even the president so long as it is used for a legitimate purpose. I am no fan of timubu but if we see white let's call it white abegi.
In saner climes, the president would be called to questioning and even impeachment based on the records of the people he fraternizes with.

immortalcrown:
1.
You can compel obedience, not love. So, be happy, irrespective of who doesn't love you.

2.
[sub][/sub]There is a difference between helping someone and trying to buy love from someone.

If you do something for someone without expecting anything in return, that is help. But if you do something for someone and expects something in return, that is not help.

Doing something for your brother with a condition that he should show you love means you are not helping him. You are just trying to loby for his love.

But Love is supposed to be appreciated, even if you are not expecting anything in return.

Who knows what is in the brother's mind while the elder one is doing all these?

All what the elder one is doing may one day be put into waste by the younger one due to whatever may be in his mind.

However it may all be just the nature of the younger one.

Well thinking Nigerians do not believe Peter Obi is different from Tinubu and Atiku or even Buhari. If we were to do a census of obidients today, more than 90% would be Igbos, and the massive support is purely tribal/sentimental. Putting an old equipment in a new carton does not change the quality of the equipment.

This your censors is completely hypothetical. Thank God you added "IF".

Artscollection:


How was he going out of line? If not for patience gree gree the husband would have won that election but the Hot okrika blood deceived her
U are right. Ameachi never instigated or initiated the fallout.

Firstly, presidency touched the sovereign funds behind the back of the Governor's forum twice.

Twice.

Then amaechi as their head led other Governors to demand for their shares.

Okonjo started preaching about saving for rainy day.

On the other side of Jonathan was his wife who picked up a power tussle fight against amaechi (one on one) to win the heart&soul of Rivers state.

She bullied him on several instances. All these while he was still in Pdp.

When it became obvious he had been defeated on both sides of his portfolios, he tagged along other rebelling Governors to merge with CPC and AC.


Patience was the cause of her husband's loss.

It's only unfortunate that Burahi did much worse than Goodluck.
