Berbierklaus:I've read your post and I can see you use worldly logic on the scriptures.. Interestingly, it has always failed. Deep down, you know the truth. 1peter 3:5-6 is very instructive. It gives a vivid example to follow. It's not something that is dependent on the other. The truth is, that's the only way for a really great marital relationship. The aspects of a man loving his wife is also clear. There's no, "if she submits". The issue of which comes first does not arise. Both the man and woman is obligated to do these things as unto God. That scripture is talking about married people, not boyfriends and girlfriends. |
They need to fish out the person who gave APC that vote |
I don't pity jubril. But what's it with Nigerians now suddenly want to start loving anyone who makes an allegation of corruption. This thing about rabble-rousing must stop. That was what earned buhari the presidency. That was what earned Dino his senatorial position. Just point people as thief and you'll suddenly have support. It's manipulative in my opinion. We all knew what Jubril was saying over the media when this budget issue started. Now some people have suddenly canonized him. |
Looks like it adds N5 daily. What's the arithmetic progression. |
Firstly, TonyeBarcanista is manipulative. One has to be careful with his writeup else, he's going to mess up your brain. Secondly, TonyeBarcanista 's brand of politics does not have loyalty anywhere near it. It's just a little bit of everything. He's for PDP, he's for buhari, he's for Tinubu, he's for GEJ. He hates godfatherism, when it's suits him, he align and celebrate them. I've listened to leaders here in the west and in Lagos, media Chiefs and they've all said it's time Tinubu takes a bow now that the ovation is high. Even in APC, he nominated the VP. If he wanted his wife to be VP, no one would have stopped him. Tomorrow when we see buhari and Tinubu together, will he write another story. It's not an APC thing. The entire South West, wants to break out from his hold. Stop this narrative. At this point TonyeBarcanista and FFK are almost doing the same thing. Well, nairaland has made batcanista a voice. |
tosyne2much:Gbam ! When some of us preach chastity, we get attacked. Because many people want to wallow in iniquity, they'll group everyone together by saying, no one is a saint, we all make mistakes, have you not had sex before? Who told you the lady you'll marry will be a Virgin etc. Those who also think people are childish because they don't accept what others can accommodate are just being silly. The devil is just deceiving many. To the op, move on, check yourself. There's more Grace than you think. |
All those defending adeosun on the other thread, have taken over this thread. |
oshikoyatope:From your post, the common denominator is" having money to spend. " Now you see that you need to research more |
AGgal:Help me love nurses. . Please tell me what they go through. Maybe I have a wrong perception of nurses due to... Maybe I've met a lot of ruthless nurses. Or at best they are just like everyone else. I don't know why I get offensive when people try to embellish the images nurses. |
are we not laundering this nurse thing too much? "nurses are great people" Make i hear word!!!. I've seen accountants who are spendthrift. I've seen children of teachers who are terrible. I've seen nurses who are unloving, wicked and careless. I;ve known a lot to understand that people are not their profession. |
This man just said what I have been saying . I wish more persons can read this . |
[b]Perhaps it’s sub-clinical, but partisanism as exhibited by Nigerians appears to be no more than just uncritical loyalty to a political party. It’s a psychiatric dilemma. Perhaps again this is only my lack of an explanation for, or an understanding of, the kneejerk reference to critics of the government as “haters” by those who were themselves “critics” before entering into political office. The Critic-As-A-Hater—attention-seeker and most definitely “disgruntled”—is the perception being popularised by the legion of former critics. And they have really invested a lot in this shamefulness, such that even political appointees whose offices aren’t recognised by the government (with creative portfolios as insignificant as their principal’s promises, only sustained by hand-outs), have joined the legion to taunt citizens who have voiced discontent with government. This diseased mindset has been applied in their criticism of the #BringBackOurGirls campaign. If there’s a medal for hypocrisy, zealous supporters of President Muhammadu Buhari will bag the prize and millions in cash, without a challenger from any other political front. Some of the erstwhile cheerleaders of the campaign have suddenly become its critics. This points to one thing, that their participation in this long-lasting campaign for the rescue of the girls of Chibok was not a show of humanity. It was just a restatement of their hatred of former President Goodluck Jonathan. And that’s why they are unwilling to accept that people can actually be legitimately critical of a style of governance, for they see everyone in their own image – as sycophants. To them, an opposition has to be rooted in an unrevealed interest. To them, an opposition has to be sponsored, any agenda has to be driven by bigotry or vendetta. This justifies my advocacy for the development of Civic Education in Nigerian schools. Our understanding of government and the place of civic vigilance is dispiriting. Whatever is being taught right now clearly isn’t effective. And it’s funny when government appointees interpret civics as hatred of the government, even funnier when their partisan allies agree with such pedestrian acknowledgement of the appointees’ inability to play their designated roles beyond serving as attack dogs. That those appointed to advise our politicians routinely identify critics as haters explains why our governments fail. But since we survived the Jonathanians, we are strong to tell their successors, the Buharists, that praise songs don’t build a strong nation. A government is only as good as the people manning it and those that surround it. And if this holds any truth, now then is the time to speak the truth to power. This is the time to praise those still standing, those who have refused to compromise on their values, those immune to blackmail. …these aides…who criticise citizens upon civic dissent with their principals, even when the livelihood of both they and their principals are maintained by public funds, might just be in need of a psychiatrist to see the irreconcilable irony of their position. The political zealots have even resorted to blackmail as part of their scheme to shut critics down. The latest victim is the US-based columnist, Professor Farooq Kperogi. In a bid to disrupt his scrutiny of the government, as he did to governments before this, his personal life was made a subject of public ridicule. The intent was to distract and dissuade him. First he was charged with bitterness for not having been given an appointment. It didn’t matter to them that he’s a highly regarded scholar at an American university, and evidently loved there for his service. When it was obvious that the columnist was high above that shallow stream of mischief, a fiction was woven around his academic scholarship – that he was sponsored by a Nigerian university, and that it is a moral low to stay back in the United States even after benefitting from Nigeria’s largesse. “That’s flat-out false,” he wrote in a reaction to the blackmail on his Facebook page. “My Master’s degree was paid for entirely by the University of Louisiana. I got a full tuition waiver and a monthly stipend for my duties as a graduate teaching assistant while I was a student there.” And then, “For my PhD at Georgia State University, I also had a full tuition waiver and a monthly stipend, and was a graduate teaching instructor.” foraminifera That they are frightened by the columnist’s commentary to the point of blackmailing him is itself a moral validation of his critiques of the president’s reluctance to lead the change he promised, to plagiarise the right things from Obama (like getting rid of the many presidential jets), to run a frugal government in view of the lean economy of the day, amongst other discontents. Kperogi isn’t a government spokesman, one of whom he’s even had a decorous exchange with over the veracity of a report in the Vanguard newspaper the Presidency didn’t refute, who yet expected the columnist to know it was false. But if it took a Farooq Kperogi column to have an official clarification on that report of the extravagance of our governing elite from Garba Shehu, then the critic achieved his aim. Ironically, the same partisans who, allying with Garba Shehu, questioned the credibility of Vanguard, rushed to share and quote Barack Obama’s praise of the president’s handing of the Boko Haram insurgency reported by the “useless” newspaper they have asked us to stop reading. We must learn to see positive assessment of the government as recognition for the moments it fulfils electoral promises. Or, as encouragement to do more and better. This making of governance to look like humanitarian service, as these shameless, shame-inducing legion of jokers insist on doing, is barefaced sycophancy. The politicians are not doing us a favour by patching up roads and rehabilitating other infrastructure. It is EXACTLY what they were elected and overly paid to do. [i]And these aides of theirs, who criticise citizens upon civic dissent with their principals, even when the livelihood of both they and their principals are maintained by public funds, might just be in need of a psychiatrist to see the irreconcilable irony of their position. May God save us from us. [/i] @gimbakakanda on Twitter[/b] http://opinion.premiumtimesng.com/2016/09/23/174991/ |
maasoap:So we should go hungry or the living standard of Nigerians should reduce to the lowest level. That policy cannot come from a wise person. |
nanizle:Did we suddenly double in population or we suddenly started consuming more oil. |
This does not make sense to me because the price of oil in the market has increased so much. |
chronique:exactly. |
used to think like the @op, but i realized i have to compromise to choose a lady. i really ever believed i'll have to compromise. |
As usual Falan's article didn't have depth. It's now like everyone now want to us every medium to attack the legislature. Unless you are bias, this one from falana has no depth. Is this the first time government sell it's assets. Even Bola Tinubu bought Lagos government assets I've said it we are giving Falana too much media attention. |
But the actions of Inec on this matter is suspicious. Anyone who is honest will know. The reason why this is not a big news to some is because many are just bias towards APC. |
Looks like nairaland now wants to force this change begins with me thing on us |
But it was GEJ who should have brought back the girls when he was president. I remember them bullying GEJ and just about any body because of this issue. When Okupe said the narrative should be, "Boko haram, release the girls" they all said nooooo! GEJ bring back our girls! Even if this girls are released today. We will not just let it go without the needed questions answered. |
Will pay 5k for this. That's a good price. |
This is commendable. Buhari should learn. In fact my governor Okowa should learn too. Imagine if this came from buhari. Some persons wouldn't let us rest. Unfortunately, that's not what's in buhari's mind. Respect!!!! |
can someone help with the cheapest for calls |
that's why some of us get angry at some silly threads on this government's anti corruption stories where some folks woun't let us rest. if they know what is going on now, they'll be shocked. we know when we shall hit the media with them. |
GoldCircle:I agree absolutely with this post |
I don't agree with Okupe given the posture of this government since coming on board. There was no inclusiveness, it was all about demonizing the people who just left and making excuses for themselves. Everyday Oshomole and Lai Mohammed and other APC buffoons were calling okonjo and others thieves. That's not a way to run a country. I said it severally, that if buhari was a president immediately after a civil war, is this how he's going to run the country? |
Icecream4U:OK. I'm doing just that. |
Oshikoyafrank:I m having issues with right click menu suddenly keeps popping up. What do I do |
I got 20 k should I call? I'm serious. Though I can't see the pictures clearly. |
I have hp530 that right click menu suddenly pops up. Plz what do you think is the problem |
This is were the main issue is. But the likes of hungerBad will not want to see it but would rather latch on the theatrics of Efcc. Some of us know how we earn our money whether they stole money or not, it doesn't affect us. Now you want us to be happy with a government that is destroying the economy and blame it on graft? Enough of shielding the incompetence of buhari government with stories of graft. |
