However not to sound cheeky, there's nothing unprecedented about this. I personally know visually impaired lawyers in Nigeria.
The black population of the West should not be the benchmark of excellence for the entire black race.

Family › Re: How Do I Tell My Unmarried Elder Sister That She Is Getting Too Old? by olakan22: 5:43pm On Oct 16, 2022 |
If you knew your sister enough, you will know why. At least an inclination. Are you aware of her past experiences with romance? Perhaps that's what you should help her with, healing. You should talk with her lovingly and not judgingly, also with wisdom. She may shock you with what she will tell you.
Furthermore, she obviously isn't interested. It's a different thing that she is willing but hasn't found anyone. She will not likely regret and stress herself if she doesn't get married ever because she's making an informed decision.
So I suggest you pray for her. Not that she gets married tommorow but that she finds peace and clarity in her life and that God heals whatever hurt she has been carrying for long.
Pray for yourself too, that you will not be a source hurting for her but that she will find strength and love in you just as she helps you financially.
I think your sis will be fine |

Not saying Chinese govt isn't corrupt ooo but they have strong military in place that wil make even the USA to think twice before invading it just like they invaded most third world countries through coup. And that strong military is as a result of strong leadership.
That's why here in Africa, any leader that rises to save and secure his country is labelled a dictator and killed This is communism my brother. It's seemingly in the interest of the common man but the truth is the policies and ideology are meant to keep one man and a small group in power for as long as possible. Xi Jinping is going for a record third term but in all of these, he has been clean all along? Only a few crimes can ruin a man's ambition like bribery in those climes. So if you want to take him out, frame him. That's how to hold onto power. The charge is ambiguous....

I do not wish to totally bash their system, but this isn't something to emulate. Silencing opponents based on trumped up charges isn't the ideal... |

uncleck: You can never be a good history student and not share the same sentiment with this woman. Queen Elizabeth and her family have committed unprecedented evil against humanity. I can't even begin to type the kind of damage they have done to world.
Is it the destruction and the disorientation of African people and their culture? Africa was self sufficient until they came with slave trade wherein they adopted and exported our young main overseas. When they embarked on industrial revolution, they made sure that they replace our food crop production with cash crop production. This singular act ruined Africa.
They brought fake religion that severed Africans from their ancestors thereby making them to lose their history and identity. They made us believe that all our actions are sin; we need a Jesus to justify our sinful nature. Accepting Jesus won't stop us from sinning, but out sins would now be forgiven. Crazy if you ask me!
They drew up the map of the world with blood, cutting families away from each other and joining strangers together. They extol nationalism but condemn tribalism. For goodness sake, tribe is to Africa what nation is to Europeans.
They give freedom to their own on request but suppress any voice of freedom in Africa.
They imposed strange political and education system on us that would never help in addressing our peculiar challenges.

They're many lonely wives separated from their husbands who work abroad
Brothers are separated from their brothers and sisters because they've gone to seek for greener pastures
Some parents haven't seen their children for years because they've gone for greener pastures
You don't see Americans, British or Dutch people separating from their families just to work in Africa.
Why is everything the opposite for Africans.
Funny a thing the black Africans count it as an achievement to migrate to a white man's country and abandoning his own root to rot away.

Lalakas: Am not happy with my husband's utterances towards me. He unapologetically told me my duties are just 2: to give him se. X and to cook. This guy has really hurt me in this marriage, he seems not to know how to talk.
I work and equally contribute to everything. I dont hide my income and i give him for the building we are both building. I am not useless and i am not a liability to him.
How it all started : Moimoi or beans is for every other Friday or Saturday ( moimoi could be ones in 6 weeks except my kids specially ask for it) but for a while now whenever I prepare any of the 2 he would complain, regect it. He told me he doesn't like them during the week and I will never prepare them Sunday to Thursday. Friday because he won't be going to work the following day. My kids like eating moimoi very well, infact, it is one their best meals. Atimes, they ask for it. My husband sees moimoi and beans as crap. Guys, he buys it and eat it outside!, my moimoi doesn't purge anyone of us. Even him but he'd keep saying he purges with moimoi, it's just an excuse.
It is difficult to cook 2 foods, i will not stop making moimoi or beans because of him, my kids like the meal so much. For the fact that he buys it out there and this food is what we usually enjoy together before now, i cant stop cooking it.
He has in many ways abused me, he is not someone I should even go the extra mile for, he doesnt sacrifice for me, he doesn't respect me, he doesn't stay close to me except when he wants se. X, always going out. He is very scarce at home. I can't cook 2 foods on days i cook moimoi or beans.
And for telling me my duties are just 2 in his life, I feel abused for allowing him have se. X with me all these while, i feel like a kitchen tool for cooking for him. His intentions and motives about a women are so demeaning.
I am feeling so ashamed of myself. He place no value on me. Sometimes I feel like these stories are there to boost traffic because, I don gerit... That aside, this issue isn't simply about food. Your marriage isn't in a good place. You need to decide what you want. If you want to fight for your marriage, then you go to do what you got to do! Stay strong |

The way Tinubu's camp is rejoicing the visit lasan... Obasanjo and Tinubu are not friends... Anyone who knows the history of their bad blood can testify. Even the quoted section of the book by OP is an introduction to a critical opinion... Tinubu's visit to OBJ wasn't out of respect or love or anything, they're just playing with emotions. Sentiment lasan ni everything.
And if Tinubu, the Jagaban enters a state on a publicized visit and you don't see the crowd you see, what's he Asiwaju for?
As a master in this game without doubt, he has managed another score. But don't be deceived. It's only a game. Nothing like noble intentions |

The way you people disrespect active social media users ehn... They call him Jagaban because it is a chieftaincy title. Just like he is Asiwaju in the west. Jagaban is not a nickname. The only way Tinubu wins is if voters, the online voters you so much disdain become intimidated and somewhat lose sight of what is important. You're doing a good job at it. But we trust our God to raise pillars of righteousness in our ruling seats jumper524: 15 states are certain while the rest 5 is still skeptical for now.
All Northwestern states. All southwest states. 4 northeast states. 3 Northcentral states.
Northwestern states. [/b]I was skeptical about this but the reality is that the Buhari support base are all clamouring for Tinubu. The Northwestern governors coupled with Buhari are all rooting for Tinubu. With elrufai as campaign DG, there's absolutely nothing the 419 tambuwal can do for Tinubu in this region.
[b]Verdict. Tinubu is expected to win all northwest state and also getting block votes from kano and Katsina. He might likely struggle with Atiku in sokoto but is expected to still win.
South-West: don't even go there. There's nothing any political opposition can do about this region. They should count it out of there equation. Verdict: Tinubu to monopolize this region.
Northcentral: Tinubu is expected to win 3 states from this region, however only 1 state is certain which is kwara state. But he's most likely to win kogi and Niger.
Verdict: Tinubu to win kwara and kogi while also dragging Niger with Atiku.
Northeast: Bauchi, Borno, Gombe and Yobe should go to tinubu no doubt about it. However Atiku would likely pull an upset in 2 of the four states. Bauchi and gombe most likely.
Verdict: Tinubu to clinch at least 3 states from this region.
Many people online who are less informed about grassroot politics would ask how I expect Tinubu to dominate Northern regions when the likes of Kwankwaso and Atiku who are from there and are contesting the ballots. Well like I said, they are less informed about grassroot politics until they do research themselves and see kwankwasiya cult followers all praising the jagaban or go to zaria to see northerners all praising the jagaban. Majority of northerners calls tinubu jagaban for reason best known to them but the fact remains that the love is massive for the jagaban.
Anticipate the 2 million match for jagaban in Kano state. Then una go believe the weight. |

seunmsg: Oyetola is a very brilliant guy but he was designed to fail as a governor by Rauf Aregbesola. Unfortunately, Nigerians are very ignorant of what the issues are so they tend to make the wrong political decisions at every election cycle.
Oyetola’s major offense was not executing big contracts and sharing money like Rauf did. Some, especially Osogbo people also hated him for fighting Rauf. But truth be told, what’s in Rauf’s legacy that should be continued? Crazy debt? Crazy religious policies? Crazy educational policies? None payment of salaries? What exactly?
The governor inherited a crippling debt portfolio from Rauf. The state’s monthly allocation was not even enough to meet the servicing of the debt left by Aregbesola not to talk of paying salaries and executing contracts. Still, he managed to keep the state together.
He had two choices as governor, take more crazy loans that the state can’t payback in the next 100 years or cut down on government projects and prioritize payment of salaries, repayment of loan and execution of only emergency projects. He choose the second option and got punished for it.
People, including political contractors simply wanted huge contracts to be awarded everywhere without caring about where the money would come from. They wanted a governor who would come to Osogbo round about and stand on the roof of his car and share money. Oyetola refused all these and they hated him.
I sincerely wish Ademola Adeleke well but I’m eagerly waiting to see what he will do differently considering the huge debt portfolio of the state. So you think they sent Oyetola packing because of contracts. There is hunger and anger in the land bro |
