"The book have narrated Nigerian politics from a narrow minded and one sided perspective. The book lacks objectivity in analysis from beginning to end. The author expresses his grievances and discomfort over the defeats of President Jonathan. How can one blamed US President for Jonathan electoral defeats in Nigeria? I'll not take Mr Reno serious he is good at fabricating lies. The author should have addressed questions as such: How much Nigeria generated during Jonathan? How much was the crude oil price then and now? How many millions Nigerian lifted from poverty during GEJ presidency? Are the Nigerians secured under Jonathan? Why all international anti agencies rated Nigeria low when Jonathan was the president?. The book might be useful for those who knows Nigerian politics but not for...."


that is one of the 3 reviews on amazon dey are bragging abt. saves me the stress of reading the book

Ajasco222:
Did you even watch the video and listen to what the person recording it said??, cos if you did, you won't make such statement. You were so fast to comment that you skipped the word 'allegedly' being used there.

My guy I watched the video and my point is I don't accept dia was no reason for the alleged eviction. Sumtin must av happened. The guys must av done sumtin to warrant d alleged eviction.

These countries av laid down laws and refugees irrespective of d country of origin are protected by laws and no one will evict u if u don't go against d law. The only time u can be taken out of the house is if u are being deported or if d house was being closed down and u are being moved.

For instance , sumwia in d video, the official was trying to stop d video recording while d Nigerian was insisting on recording sayin he was not scared. Nigerians seeing that part would think he was being harrased to stop recording. Do u know that in Europe, u are not legally allowed to video people or take dia pics without dia consent? The Nigerian guy obviously does not know that and then we will all think he was being harrased to stop the video. A German police officer once took my phone for recording a audio of dia conversation and deleted it cus its not allowed .

So I'm.saying if d alleged eviction actually happened, d headline that it was for no reason is half information.

Nobody sends asylum.seeker out of camp for no reasons. Nigerian bloggers with half baked reportage. Go find out before posting dey won't.

I work with d red cross as refugee helper in Germany and I know no one can send out a refugee out of camp without reason. I am even tempted to say for any reason sef but I will just exercise restraints on that

obailala:
There are like 1000 movies out there with a similar story; two people getting married and having to overcome family and personal challenges. This is a very common occurence in many marriages and there are countless movies out there already depicting these issues. Your assertion about Wedding Party being a rip off is very weird cos both movies are clearly different.

If not that I don't av d time, I will start listing ways in which wedding party stole specifically from jumping the broom.

Is It d mother in law who didn't like d bride, the brides dad who was broke without telling his wife or d two mothers who didn't like each other . my guy d list of copied rip off is endless. They only nigerianized wedding party to make it look unique by adding situations unique to the Nigerian environment.


But as I said earlier go watch both movies over again

JeffreyJames:


Wedding Party and Jumping the broom has nothing whatsoever to do with each other. Different storylines entirely.

Go watch it again and I assure u that u will come back and modify this ur comment. Wedding party is a rip off of jumping the broom. They only just changed certain stuffs in it to make it look Nigerian but the background storyline of two people getting married and having to overcome family and personal challenges remained d same

subtlemee:
Meanwhile Nollwood is busy copying and duplicating Hollywood movies story line like *jumping broom* which is our *wedding party* here, who them sue?

I thought I was the only one who realised that the overhyped wedding party was a complete stolen story from TD Jakes jumping the broom ooo.

I even mentioned it to some friends and I was told I hate Nigeria

NevetsIbot:
nevilbot..... Looks like a clone of my moniker.

Announcing to all Nlders.. Nevilbot isn't me.. I'm NevetsIbot. Please take note. Thank you

I also can't be u. My moniker is my tradename and its unique to me. So no need to start a public service announcement. We don't need it

IhateAfonjas:

We have never had an ebola in the history of Nigeria until that evil Liberian traveled to Nigeria and then from Nigeria he went to the USA and died, the 3 countries he visited got hit

Where did u get this version of ur news from sir? Sawyer the Liberian guy died in Nigeria and did not av plans or was even allowed out of the hospital by that brave female doctor who diagnosed him.

Sawyer was supposed to travel from Lagos to calabar for an event, got detected at the airport and was bundled to d private clinic Wia d female doc on suspecting Ebola prevented him from leaving. He died and his corpse was incinerated in Nigeria. He did not travel to the USA like u claim!!!

You can ask Google if u are still in doubt!! And as ur name goes, it simply shows u are busy hating on a tribe who don't give a hoot abt ur existence and neglecting to develop urself mentally. If u had just taken some time off from hating to develop urself, u won't be peddling around false information.

Plz is international airport not in Enugu or is Enugu no longer part of south east? Did a daughter of the soil as aviation minister not claim she renovated the airport with billions?

People commenting as if all States of other zones av an airport while d entire east has none. Abeg I no fit shout.

I'm I d only one seeing those are not cows but just 2 sheep's that must av strayed from a nearby residential house close to the airport?

Not that I am excusing dia presence at d airport but plz those are not cows!!

Originalsly:
Not at all surprised. How it got to West Africa would not concern me as much as how it got to the Congo in the first place. Did you guys discuss that? About the vaccine.... do you know the US government gave billions for the pharmaceutical companies to come up with a vaccine?...and did you know where that vaccine was to be tested on humans?...and d is still being tested on humams? Africa... not America. This can very well be a case of experimental vaccine getting out of control. Don't ever believe that what pharmaceutical corporations do is for your benefit.... it may benefit you.. but their objective is to make money...lots of it....even if it means introducing an epidemic to sell a vaccine... and that is the new trend.... Bird Flu... Swine Flu... Ebola... Zika... a return to Ebola this year?..I guess.

I initially mentioned that the vaccine development bypassed all d known stages of drug development. It was tested directly on sick Ebola patients. It does not make sense to test it on Americans since dey dont av any case of it. Where else will it be tested if not a region that is prone to outbreak and undergoing an outbreak. So as regards that, don't get urself cooked up in any conspiracy theories. Its just like u getting angry on why a malaria vaccine sponsored by who is being tested on Nigerians and not Europeans or Americans when its not news that they don't av malaria.

When dia was d SARS outbreak in China, did dey come test d vaccine in Africa? Nope, it was tested in China cus that's Wia it was needed. No one is using Africans for experiments in this Case, Africa has an ongoing Ebola epidemic so it makes perfect sense to test the vaccine where it is needed.

As for how d virus got to Congo, I mentioned that d virus wiped out some gorrilas in Congo showing that d gorrilas must av come in contact with it in dia habitat. D virus is native to Congo and bats and chimpanzees in Des area are known to harbour d virus with no harm to them. The ist time d white even heard of d virus was when dey imported some of these apes to German town of Marburg for research and some of them got exposed to it and got killed by it. U can Google Marburg virus for more on that. So my dear friend, no one brought d virus to Africa, in fact Africa exported d virus to the world!

Originalsly:
If Ebola in the Congo is not new..... a yearly thing....why suddenly it began wiping out people?...did they suddenly forget how to control it? Of late.... strange viruses or strange strains of viruses have chosen to suddenly emerge in the midst of the poorest.... where coincidentally.... foreign virus research centres are located.

I am presently offering a msc course in virology and can authoritatively tell u that Ebola has bin a recurrent occurring in Congo since d 70s. It even wiped out an entirely population of gorrilas in that country in the 80s.

Something abt viruses is that they cant survive on dia own. Virus need host cell to metabolize and replicate and are considered dead when outside a host so virus don't set out to kill u when dey enter u cus killing u also affects them. They die once outside a host. Bats and many animals are natural host to many viruses and Des animals don't die. Organisms are killed by virus when they are a new host to that virus I.e the virus is entering dia body for d ist time and dia immune system can't get used to these viruses before dey bcom virulent.

The west Africa case of two years back was massive cus that region was new to the virus . d virus got introduced to a new environment of people whose ecosystem had Neva had exposure to it before. How it got to west Africa is even still unknown cus it has always been confined to Congo.

This was a even a topic of a seminar discussion last week. Since Ebola was only killing few people randomly in Congo for years, the search for its vaccine lacked the needed motivation and financial backing. What will be d effect of few people in some back villages dieing in some poor country. So the big companies and NGOs turned the other eye cus it was not a profitable venture to pursue. It became profitable when it crossed to west Africa and became a major epidemic.

Now in less than 2 years, they found a vaccine.

Not new, Ebola in Congo is a yearly thing cus that is the natural habitat of d virus. The virus strain is even named Zaire Ebola virus after d country's old name. And bcus the virus had always bin contained in dis region for long, no vaccine was developed cus it was not seen as profitable to the western pharmaceutical companies.

Not until it spread out to west africa and beyond and wrecked d damage that became world news did dey eventually decide to invest in a vaccine and as at last month, dia is now a successful vaccine trial that had to bypass all d known stages of drug development

This ffk is just stupid and mischievous. He claims journalists were not allowed into the villa to see d president with d chibok girls, yet I watched it on aljazeera and framce24 stations in faraway Germany.

Did ghosts video it for those two stations? The same aljazeera filmed d president walking from his helicopter to d plane on his way to d UK, na ghost dey report for aljazeera? Wailing is really a disease

proposed anambra rail project

Guy softly dey lie now. U are talking of proposed anambra rail and you are using a train in France as pictorial proof. Abbbaaa take am easy biko.

And it will take years for Nigeria to have such high speed trains mainly bcus they are powered by electricity

BTW : I know the blue train belongs to France cus I have taken it severally from Frankfurt to paris

Chiedu u re a critic of JW but ve u confirmed from other translations of 2 Samuel 21:19 to find out if what that guy is saying is the truth or is another way to slander JW?
Dont u think Devil is at work?
Check other translations and see if the New World Translation wrote anyrhing different. That video is not only baseless but senseless. If that guy was sensible enough he wud have at least two other translations different from the JW bible to make his comparative analysis

I av already answered him with 5 other translations to show his video is not only senseless but he also lacks sense of reasoning and good judgement. Even d bible says make sure of all things which means make research and verify but he just saw it without comparing with other translations and rushed to make a stupid video to show the world how he thinks

chiedu7:
Good one they are heretics


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjlQcS6-M0o

the maker of this video and whoever blivs him and shares it are just dumb. u just showed that u dont even read or know wat is in ur bible and went rushing to make a video thereby showing ur level of ignorance to people who actually study the bible. instead of rushing to make a stupid video thinking u av hit jackpot, U should av checked and compared other bible translations to ur so called Jw bible to see if that verse was made up by Jw as u claim. since u are so lazy to make a research, Let me help u with other bible translations

New World Translation (ur so called jw bible)
2Sa 21:19 And war broke out again with the Phi·lisʹtines at Gob, and El·haʹnan the son of Jaʹa·re-orʹe·gim the Bethʹle·hem·ite struck down Go·liʹath the Gitʹtite, whose spear had a shaft like the beam of loom workers

American Standard Version
2Sa 21:19 And there was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jaareoregim the Beth-lehemite slew Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.

Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

2 sam 21:19 Once again there was a battle with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite killed[a] Goliath of Gath. The shaft of his spear was like a weaver’s beam.


Lexham English Bible (LEB)


2 sam 21 vs 19 There was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob. And Elhanan the son of Jaare-Oregim, the Bethlehemite, killed Goliath[a] the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like the beam of a weaver.



New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

2 sam 21 vs 19 Then there was another battle with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan son of Jaare-oregim, the Bethlehemite, killed Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.

Byington
2Sa 21:19 And there was the war at Gob with the Philistines again; and Elhanan the son of Jaʽir the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gathite; the shaft of his spear was like a weaver’s pole.

Are those translations that say the same thing as d new world translations also Jw bibles? If u had used ur sense of reasoning and read ur bible well before making that video to show ur stupidity, u would av known that d Goliath that David killed was not the same referred to in that verse. The Goliath David killed is recorded in 1 SAM 17 vs 4 and he is called Goliath from Gath and not the same as Goliath from gittite in 2 SAM 21 vs 19. They are two different Goliaths.

New World Translation (ur so called jw bible)
1Sa 17:4 Then a champion came out from the camps of the Phi·lisʹtines; his name was Go·liʹath, from Gath, and his height was six cubits and a span.

American Standard Version
1Sa 17:4 And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

King James Version1Sa 17:4
And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

Byington 1Sa 17:4
And a man came out between them from the Philistine line of battle, named Goliath, from Gath; he was nine and a half feet tall.

Can u tell me how different d other bible translations are diff from ur so called Jw bible from d examples? Do u know how many other giants were killed by Israelite men in d bible after David killed Goliath?

You just showed that u don't even read and understand ur bible and instead of u to listen to d witnesses who want to help u, u are dia spreading lies against them and infecting others with ur mental laziness

I love it seriously, in fact I made my gf like it and start using it. The bigger d sexier for me

Does that change d fact dt shez running for the 4th term, as she openly disclosed last November?

Yes cus she is legally permitted to do so and unlike some African leaders she didn't av to manipulate d constution and make d military shoot anyone to contest.

In fact she will win without having to rig d election or bribing anyone . Germans are not complaining, I don't get y u feel u should complain on dia behalf by peddling lies

hotspec:
But why? Even Germany's Angela Merkel also wanted to amend d constitution to allow her for 4th term

Stop commenting on what u don't know and misleading people with your ignorance passing fictions as fact.

The German constitution does not av term limit and Merkel did not make any attempt to change any constitution. She contested for primaries in her party and was nominated with abt 95% of d vote without any rancour last December. If u must know she will still win d main election cus dia is no credible opponent contesting against her. She will keep contesting for as long as she wants till she loses or resigns cus d constitution allows it and it was not Merkel that changed it.

I live in Germany so that's d fact. Stop misleading people on nairaland

Why won't d olugbo yarn dust and show is ignorance of history wen he is a known usurper of the ugbo throne aided by the out going gov of ondo state.

A king who prides himself on Yoruba history but can not even step feet on the ancestral headquarters of his kingdom cus the people dia do not recognise him as dia king. A king who calls himself olugbo but cant step feet in ugbo town.

Distorting history to give himself relevance. Rubbish!!

Bros wat ur wife has is called a breast mouse in pathology. It is medically a fibroadenoma.

Fibroadenoma (Breast 'Mouse') A fibroadenoma usually appears as a well-defined, firm lump in the breast. They are often very mobile, hence the name breast 'mouse'. These benign lumps represent an alteration in the normal development of the breast and are dependent on the sex hormone oestrogen.

It will continue to grow bigger if not removed surgically cus it depends on d sex hormone for its growth. Its not cancerous but u should go to a hospital and av it removed

God bless Goodluck Ebele Jonathan for being an example to Africa and the world at large

Will u guys just shut up with this ur Jonathan laying examples!! Incumbent presidents in Senegal av bin losing and handing over without incidents even before gej became Nigerian president and heaven didn't fall. As at last count, 2 such incidence av bin recorded dia.

He is not d ist in africa neither is he d ist in d world to lose an election and leave so I don't get who he set examples for. Maybe shortsighted people like u who refuse to see beyond dia noses.

If u lose election u hand over and its no biggie. Gej did not set any example or do any special thing. Maybe u need to go read up on wat a democracy means
