PoliticsRe: 6-Year Single Term: Atiku Said Lawmakers Threw Away Baby With Bath Water by obailala(m): 10:03am On Dec 18, 2019
I agree with atiku on this; we're still in 2019 and the talks of 2023 are already so deafening. Elected leaders get in office and instead of taking ambitious hard decisions which can bettter the country, they all keep considering political expedience (a.k.a securing 2nd term) and getting distracted. Not to even talk of the money spent in elections every 4 years.

The way in which they threw the bill out without even blinking was sick. Imagine one lawmaker arguing that "passing the bill would fuel unnecessary speculations that GMB wants to extend his tenure"? Solution for that would have been extremely simple, the new law shouldn't apply to elected leaders already in their second tenure.

So, where was re-inventing the wheel coming from?
You lack understanding and yet refuse to glean wisdom.
Well done oga
I wouldnt say you lack basic comprehension skills, or wisdom or understanding, that would be a lie. But you simply put these qualities aside because you were just desperate to make an argument out of nothing.

'Re-inventing' occurs when you try to create what already exists, instead of just reproducing it. The origin of this argument was you asking why Nigeria should import improve grass seed when we should be developing the seed ourselves in our labs. I opined that it was unnecessary and uneconomical to go in the lab to recreate what already exists from scratch, except of course we want to develop a more improved version of it. But then, if we want to improve on the existing seed, we can simply obtain the existing one and improve it further. You were simply just desperate to criticise the idea because it was from govt, but i told you there wasnt really anything worth criticising there.
CrimeRe: Adenike Ishola Disappears As ICPC Discovers Her 60-Building Estate In Abuja by obailala(m): 8:36am On Dec 18, 2019
Guyman02:
Adenike Ishola? The name is not Allen Onyema or Invictus Okeke or Orji Kalu, therefore, I can bet my N10,000 that this story will make FP only once grin
The reason it will make frontpage once, and may not even stretch beyond 2 pages, is because no one, absolutely no one turns it into world war 3; no one automatically feels a need to start defending her based on her tribe, no one starts several new threads lamenting how she's being hounded just because of her tribe, no one turns it into a tribal melee and starts attacking other tribes (and even countries), no one ascribes it to political enemies, no one turns it to an Apc vs PDP fight etc etc etc...

In summary, as long as no one claims and begins to viciously defend her based on tribe, the story will never degenerate into a tribal war fest, and as such, would die a natural death even by lunchtime. .

If it's any of the following there's nothing you can do because these snakes venoms kill.in less than 4 minutes

Puff adder
Black momba
Spitting cobra
Coral snake ( I think )

I can't remember the others

If any of these bites the person, just say your last prayers and lay down comfortably, there's no point dying in an uncomfortable position is there ?
No snake can venom can kill even a rabbit in 4 mins, let alone a human.

Luckily, mamba and rattlesnake no dey naija.
Who told you there are no mambas in Nigeria?.... Those devils are all over the place, the black mambas specifically. I call them devils because unlike other snakes that only attack when threatened and cornered, black mambas will actually come for you unprovoked, and if you dare provoke them, they chase after you for long distances. They can be extremely fast. Those things are nothing but demons.

This is the internet. There are many people on this forum with low intelligence.
Wait until you are bitten by a snake or scorpion and are in severe pain, falling in and out of consciousness. Even if someone jokingly recommends you drink pee as a solution, you will do whatever you're told without asking; thishas nothing to do with intelligence or enlightenment. Trust me, you dont want to find yourself in that disoriented sitiluation. God forbid!

I'd like to ask a simple question bros.
How is it re-inventing the wheel to produce cars with super radiators adapting to our temperate climate?
How is it wheel re-inventing to develop what you already have to suit you better?
That's how people get stagnant, calling IMPROVEMENT wheel RE-INVENTING while people are growing.
Produxing cars with super radiators to adapt to our temperate climate is called 'improvement'. Go back to all my previous posts and this time, try to read them slowly. I made it very clear numerous times that it makes no sense to start creating what already exists, except you have a plan to improve on it.

I'm not sure except u change your way of reasoning like a zombie
zon B kill you and you family there... I simply said a truth, and because you cannot disprove or puncture the truth I said without risking sounding like a fool, you resorted to name calling. Like I said before, disprove what I said, tell me it is wrong and what is false about it. If you cant, then you know its obvious that you are are even less than a zon b.

But guess what lad, you obviously lack the intelligence to counter what I said. So you will definitely return with another empty statement (a.k.a insults).
PoliticsRe: FG’s School Feeding: Crisis Cripples Scheme, Benefiting States Lament by obailala(m): 10:35pm On Dec 16, 2019
charliboy654:
And whose fault is that?

When all powers are in abuja, does local govt have any say in the country.
This is the very reason we are clamoring for true federalism and restructuring. The oil in my backyard is been controlled by the federal govt yet i should blame the local n start govt for failed school feeding program.

Besides the school feeding program is a federal govt initiative.

The power abuja is holding is too much, so expect us to blame abuja for failures in the country.
Reference:
What are you saying. Isn't it a Federal program again. Wasn't it their drive. They called the party but didn't count the cost. They received the accolades when the going was good.

The truth is that a Socialist nation must be one of great discipline, immense sacrifice and positive intellect if not economic challenges and poverty will be a national experience.

You cannot have socialism in a regime of high levels of corruption. That is subsidy at the bottom and the top of society simultaneously.

You cannot have socialism in a regime of deep ignorance and illteracy where the population donot aporeciate the values of responsibility and prudence.

You cannot have socialism work where the average citizen cannot make the basic sacrifices to see the system work, where parochial interests of typically tribe and religion are set aside for the greater good.

In such regimes social programs are just waste conduits, can kickingz and mereky postponing the evil day as we see our debts baloon without recourse.

There are serious problems ahead for the next generation that will dare to call themselves Nigerians.
It is a federal government INITIATIVE, but state governments implement it. State governments are to do a census and provide an estimate of the total cost of feeding school kids in their state, the FG vets the figures and then provides 60% of the total cost, while the state brings 40%. This explains why there are still some state not participating in it, cos they dont want to bring their counterpart fund.

Implementation of the actual programme is by state governments. So when there are silly hitches like we read of, the searchlight should really be on the operators (state government), not Abuja, except of course the Abuja fails to release the required funds.

Whether we run a TRUE FEDERALISM or not, the fact remains that we still operate a federal system where state governments handle a good chunk of the resources and hold substantial responsibilities. Stop excusing state governments for their irresponsibility.
PoliticsRe: FG’s School Feeding: Crisis Cripples Scheme, Benefiting States Lament by obailala(m): 5:14pm On Dec 16, 2019
A lot of Nigerians lack the ability to differentiate the roles and responsibilities of the FG, state governments and local governments. As usual in Nigeria, when a primary school child in a rural village isn't fed, Abuja is to be blamed.

See this news bro
https://www.nairaland.com/5584024/nigeria-releases-first-transgenic-crop
Keep being antiquated & refusing to learn over things you have no iota of knowledge about
Lol.. This man! the pride you talk about is the only reason you have been unable to understand a simple common sense economic concept - "it is pointless to re-invent the wheel, except you want to improve an existing design." Your argument is sounding like a village scientist who wants to 'show off' to his village people, so instead of simply fetching water from the tap, he goes into the lab to synthesize H2 and O2 to get drinking water; Oga there is no sense whatsoever in that.

Like I said a countless number of times, there is nothing wrong with Nigerian scientists developing new varieties, so I'm confused at why you're sending me the above link? How exactly does it deviate or contradict what I've been saying? The new Nigerian environment-compatible cowpea variety produced by the AATF, did it exist before now?

There is nothing wrong with local scientists developing new plant varieties, but there is no sense re-inventing what already exists if you can simply reproduce it. It only makes sense if you want to produce a new variety which doesn't yet exist, or if you want to modify an existing one so it can grow in your backyard, or if you want to improve an already existing one. Heck! how is English too difficult to understand these days?

Oga scientist, how exactly is the above common sense so difficult for you to understand?

I remain adamant that Falana is a very useless man ..like the typical coward he is instead of blaming Buhari who is responsible for all this he has instead chosen a softer target in the person of Osinbanjo. Why is Falana always scared of mentioning Buharis name ? Under Jonathan did you ever here Falana blame the VP Sambo? Hell no they always blame Jonathan even for problems caused by governors because they saw Jonathan as a soft target .. Falana leave Osinbanjo out of this he has tried his best , Osinbanjo is yet to recover from the last time he interfered and sacked the DSS boss andBuhari has been silently punishing him since then ..
Falana has been shouting Buharis name, and blaming him for all that's been going for months now. It's not his fault that you chose to close your eyes and stuff your ears with cotton wool to not notice his words.
