Show evidence that he rubbished the man. You children try to convert opinions into facts. He only claimed that he helped the man all the time. No be the same Nairaland we both read the article?
He said the man is a womaniser. The man used to carry olosho. He said he gave the man 100 million and he wasted it. He said he built a house for the man and the man sold the house. He said the man wasted money like a kid. He said when his mother was pregnant, the man said abort that bastard baby. Does it mean to you that all those statements are praises?
PoliticsRe: Why El-rufai Should Not Be Pressuring Peter Obi To Join SDP by Obiedun(m):
Why not? He has to call obi to join him in their wilderness journey since he knows that obi is a desperate waka Waka politician jumping parties anyhow. He has read obi very well. Obi will be saying yes daddy, ranka dey dey to Rufai. Selfish politicians of no value.

Why are you worrying yourself when no one is worrying you? Your result is as solid as the modern one if not even better. Different countries have different grading systems and that doesn't invalidate anything since your result is not forged. Move on please.

That means you don't know anything. The man he rubbished just last week. If the man was as useless as he said, would he be able to come together as if they were friends as you see it in the picture?

It's like El-Rufai is going to fail with his ko were ko we're he is doing. They will fight dirty. Rufai himself is arrogant. He believes he has the monopoly of all knowledge. People who Sabi talk are not always good administrators

PoliticsRe: Anambra State Is Three times bigger than Ibadan evidence (Photos) by Obiedun(m): 8:02am On Mar 16, 2025
Bestmanfornow:
I have seen many ignorant minds here claiming Ibadan is bigger than Anambra state, Anambra is second urbanized state in Nigeria after Lagos and second smallest state after Lagos, Anambra is three times bigger than Ibadan Oyo state capital which is the only city in the Oyo state, Anambra is densely populated and forming a one city mega state

Anambra State measures

Parameter; 372.22 km
Area: 4,728,393,535.27


Ibadan measures;
Parameter 111.29 km
Area : 800,235,699,4m
Ibadan is just a city and Anambra a state. Comparing a state to a town is rubbish

Since both of them are perpetual defectors, I will advise they do. This is not the first time. Waka waka politicians. Since both of them are desperate for power, they will fight dirty. Since both of them are perpetual losers, they will still lose.

Notable Quotes

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU QUOTES
Genevan philosopher, writer, and composer (1712-1778)


What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract

Cities are the abyss of the human species.

JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Émile

If there were a nation of Gods, it would govern itself democratically. A government so perfect is not suited to men.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

If, by chance, someone among those men of extraordinary talent is found who has firmness of soul and who refuses to yield to the genius of his age and to debase himself with childish works, woe unto him! He will die in poverty and oblivion.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Discourse on the Sciences and the Arts

It is easier to conquer than to administer. With enough leverage, a finger could overturn the world; but to support the world, one must have the shoulders of Hercules.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

It is not possible for minds degraded by a host of trivial concerns to ever rise to anything great.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Discourse on the Sciences and the Arts

Good laws lead to the making of better ones; bad ones bring about worse.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

Nature never deceives us; it is always we who deceive ourselves.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

In the strict sense of the term, a true democracy has never existed, and never will exist. It is against natural order that the great number should govern and that the few should be governed.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

We must powder our wigs; that is why so many poor people have no bread.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The First and Second Discourses Together with the Replies to Critics and Essay on the Origin of Languages

We are reduced to asking others what we are. We never dare to ask ourselves.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Discourse on Inequality

I would rather be a man of paradoxes than a man of prejudices.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

The money that we possess is the instrument of liberty, that which we lack and strive to obtain is the instrument of slavery.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Confessions of Jean-Jacques Rousseau

The taste for splendor is hardly ever combined in the same souls with the taste for the honorable.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Discourse on the Sciences and the Arts

People who know little are usually great talkers, while men who know much say little. It is plain that an ignorant person thinks everything he does know important, and he tells it to everybody. But a well-educated man is not so ready to display his learning; he would have too much to say, and he sees that there is much more to be said, so he holds his peace.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Reveries of the Solitary Walker

In truth, laws are always useful to those with possessions and harmful to those who have nothing; from which it follows that the social state is advantageous to men only when all possess something and none has too much.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

In a well-governed state, there are few punishments, not because there are many pardons, but because criminals are rare; it is when a state is in decay that the multitudes of crimes is a guarantee of impunity.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

The social pact, far from destroying natural equality, substitutes, on the contrary, a moral and lawful equality for whatever physical inequality that nature may have imposed on mankind; so that however unequal in strength and intelligence, men become equal by covenant and by right.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

Every person has a right to risk their own life for the preservation of it.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

Love childhood, indulge its sports, its pleasures, its delightful instincts. Who has not sometimes regretted that age when laughter was ever on the lips, and when the heart was ever at peace?

JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

The first man who, having enclosed a piece of ground, bethought himself of saying This is mine, and found people simple enough to believe him, was the real founder of civil society. From how many crimes, wars, and murders, from how many horrors and misfortunes might not any one have saved mankind, by pulling up the stakes, or filling up the ditch, and crying to his fellows: Beware of listening to this imposter; you are undone if you once forget that the fruits of the earth belong to us all, and the earth itself to nobody.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Discourse on Inequality

Every man having been born free and master of himself, no one else may under any pretext whatever subject him without his consent. To assert that the son of a slave is born a slave is to assert that he is not born a man.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

What, then, is the government? An intermediary body established between the subjects and the sovereign for their mutual communication, a body charged with the execution of the laws and the maintenance of freedom, both civil and political.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

As soon as any man says of the affairs of the State "What does it matter to me?" the State may be given up for lost.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

Conscience is the voice of the soul; the passions are the voice of the body.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

Provided a man is not mad, he can be cured of every folly but vanity.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

Money is the seed of money, and the first guinea is sometimes more difficult to acquire than the second million.

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Discourse on Inequality

The happiest is he who suffers least; the most miserable is he who enjoys least.

JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

Once you teach people to say what they do not understand, it is easy enough to get them to say anything you like.

JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

Blushes are the sign of guilt; true innocence is ashamed of nothing.

JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Emile

Every artists wants to be applauded.

JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU, Discourse on the Sciences and the Arts

The right of conquest has no foundation other than the right of the strongest. If war does not give the conqueror the right to massacre the conquered peoples, the right to enslave them cannot be based upon a right which does not exist. No one has a right to kill an enemy except when he cannot make him a slave, and the right to enslave him cannot therefore be derived from the right to kill him. It is accordingly an unfair exchange to make him buy at the price of his liberty his life, over which the victor holds no right. Is it not clear that there is a vicious circle in founding the right of life and death on the right of slavery, and the right of slavery on the right of life and death?

JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU, The Social Contract, Or Principles of Political Right

Never exceed your rights, and they will soon become unlimited.

PoliticsRe: Tinubu Creating Crisis In Every Political Party Ahead Of 2027 - Adeyanju by Obiedun(m): 8:50pm On Mar 14, 2025
The proverb "a lazy man always blames his tools" means that someone who is lazy or unskilled will often attribute their failures or poor performance to external factors rather than taking responsibility for their own shortcomings.
