BREAKING: Supreme Court to weigh in on petition to overturn same-sex marriage.
News

Are you happy with that or not?

basilico:
Marriage is between a man and woman.
That's so medieval 🙃🙃🙃

lol...that's something that's been in existence since the beginning! How is that....I get you bas. Bwahahaha!

RodgersAkpafu:
Two sides of the same coin to be honest

It is common knowledge that some islamic societies (like Northern Nigeria Pakistan and other shit hole regions) have certain views about women amd other topics that are not fit for use in the 21st century

But the conservatives pointing fingers have the similar views that are not also fit for use.

Two clowns 🤡 pointing fingers at each other

Your views doesn't make sense. It is the Islamic societies that are against "conservatives" (majorly people who are of firm Christian foundations and who largely built and shaped the 21st century as we know it, until liberalism and other forms of decrepit social offshoots started corrupting things) views about women and societies. Their goal has always been to dominate the world and make it shariah compliant.

Can you give any example of topics where Conservatives have similar views with Islam - not fit for the 21st century?

And in another news, in Birmingham, anti Semitism is alive and well.

I never liked Nancy - but that's me. Fetterman appears to have seen the light. Happy retirement to her and her family.

buda dear, all you posted up there are off points stuff - and you probably know this. I am dead serious, lady! lets talk.

budaatum:
Ono, I seriously do not doubt that you "like" buda. buda is likable like that. In fact where is ben? I haven't seen him lately!

The problem is you don't know what you like, nor how. It's like you see the fruit and like it but don't realise that's because it is not "corrupted by the evils of society".

But worse is that you do not understand that your "too much knowledge" is the Word. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all humankind.



Your horse is behind your donkey. Here in Britain we first went to these your so called "new beliefs system" and learnt a lot from them that benefitted us immensely. Then we studied what they did so we can do it too and that benefitted us even more. And now they are coming to live amongst us the majority of us accommodate them because they benefit us and because our belief system welcomes strangers.

Below is education in some places, as determined by people who educate their children.

https://lewisham.gov.uk/myservices/education/schools/religious-education-in-schools/teaching-religious-education-in-schools

When God told the Israelites to welcome strangers, He did not intend for the strangers to now become those who will "indoctrinate" the Israelites with their "new belief systems" to make them turn their back on God - as England and the West has done and are "corrupted" thereby. There is no doubt that learning new "things" comes with its own benefits and all. God knew this. He knew that those "benefits" also have poisons - and they corrupt the unsuspecting - as it is today with the West and in England. So, He warned them not to accommodate them.

But buda will not listen to the voice of the Lord. Maybe Coco too (I don't know). See how well we have now fared. Look at the "new knowledge" on sex change operations, LGBTQUISX+, same sex marriage, tolerance that's demonic at its roots, laxity, crimes increasing and rapidly expanding across the West, broken homes and families, divorce, terrible governance and government structures, strife, disobedient children, chaos, deaths.

I know what I like. And I know the devil is out there to destroy societies that turned their back on God. Atheists are hell bound - that's a fact. Those of them that are alive should retrace their steps and seek God. He will take them back to restore them.

budaatum:
Ono, this describes what's happening to church.

People who believe like you are chasing us out of the pews.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSeCfvYe9Tw?si=amvL8qcr9DP8Kzcy

I'll be going this Sunday. I got this lovely Christian grandma who walks like .01mph taking me. We good laugh both ways.

I'll remember to take a photo for you.

buda, going to Church does not take you anywhere! The new "Church of Christ" - true believers, are not known by their church attendance. For by their fruits alone, ye shall know them! Right now, the sheep (true and real worshipers of the God) are getting separated from the goats (nominal church goers and many/all liberals etc), in preparation for the end - just like Christ himself said it will be - in the end.

buda, I like you and Coco a lot. I don't know, we can connect outside of here - if you don't mind. Let's talk. You have a good heart. Don't let it get corrupted by the evils of society and the direction "too much knowledge" is taking those who go down that path will find themselves in the end. All things belongs to the Father - He's the source of everything.

To the others in the West, I write. You can all see where accommodating other belief systems have taken you. A further check on AI revealed to me that formal Islamic studies programs started in 1949 in the US. Since then, can you all tell me how well we have fared? If you are sincere and not deceiving yourselves, do you think we have benefited anything from harbouring and accommodating these new beliefs system?

Buda et al, I did some checks. See below from AI.

https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2025/11/05/dnc-chair-no-one-gives-a-sht-about-cultural-issues-anymore/

And this, guys, this is what I'm talking about! See what I mean?

Can you all now see where the West is going?? Just read a snip of what this guy said below to appreciate how shortsighted, intolerant, selfish and self centered these people are. I doubt this one knows anything about principalities and powers and the rulers of darkness of this world. I doubt he knows Jesus on a personal level - talk less of fasting and prayer. They don't even care when the Devil dangles a carrot before them - like a trap. Wow!

Because their tummy is their god, and because they care more about the fleeting things of this life - food, clothings, rents and cars and all, they are ready to sell their souls to the Devil! - sell them to even their enemies (for a morsel of porridge), who will destroy them, their societies, their legacies, their very foundations!

Between, I heard many Middle Eastern Sheikhs, along with the Soros and other morally decrepit people poured resources into this unfortunate and devilish win for the Democrat Party.

Basilico, you are right. This right here is an emergency. The Democrat Party as we know it, the Party of FDR, is gone!

raumdeuter:
Georgia Public sector? what is that? Who is running there? Georgia is purple and has 2 Democrat senators, so how is it a surprise that Blue won in Georgia

My bro, this election is not a referendum on the GOP or Trump - in any way, shape or form. Buda and her friends - Ijebos and company are "rejoicing" over nuttin. Trump is barely a year as President in this non consecutive term of his.


But I have other worries for the West and western civilisation as we know it. Gloomy future ahead for us, if we continue to allow liberals and their terrible, destructive and demonic policies to shape our societies. The West must return to their Christian roots - with fear and reverence to the Mighty Lord and God, Jehovah Adonai. The Lord of Hosts! We have families who don't pray anymore. They don't serve the Lord anymore. Children who don't even know what Christianity is! They accommodate harmful, hateful demonic ideas and agendas! They allow logic, feelings and carnal thoughts to guide their actions. They no more seek the face of the Lord for help and direction in the management of the affairs of the things of this life. We are on a downward spiral - and getting out of control by the influence of atheists, "thought leaders", "wordsmiths" - who like to complicate very simple things for which guidance can be found in his Holy Word - the Bible, and corrupt societies with their "sweet" words.

We have now allowed and accommodated people of different faiths, belief systems, culture and traditions, alien to ours, to now systematically corrupt our societies in the West. All for what? Multiculturalism and to look acceptable to these groups - and feel good with ourselves, but to our own downfall and ultimate destruction? The other day, I read in the news that many Western Universities - CUNY, Oxford, Cambridge, many of the Ivy league Universities, etc etc now offer programs in Islamic studies! We have Professors teaching about Islam in American and British Universities! How did we get to this point in our life?

These are the reasons we have lost it in New York, New Jersey, Virginia and maybe Georgia and elsewhere. This last election wasn't about Trump and the GOP in any way. It is a reflection of a society that has lost touch with their roots. A society that has lost touch with their God.

Death and destruction is in the horizon folks - except we retrace our steps and humbly go back to where we missed it. May God help us all.

budaatum:
I doubt it's intelligent to discard how dump has 'worked' all his life and only focus on how he incompetently "carried out the Iran bombing operations".

That would be like disregarding all your Nairaland posts and only focusing on this single one post.

Well, he's done a lot of other good stuff buda. Your hatred of him won't let you see them. Sad.

IjeBos:
"I will fix it on day one."
Isn't that what Trump ran on?

It's odd, you now want to give Trump time to use hurtful corrective measures but wouldn't give Biden the same after coming out of a Global Pandemic.

And - after all these years, you don't know how Trump does his stuff? His body language etc?

It's obvious your hatred of Trump made you not know how the man operates.

If you want to know how the guy works, take a look at how he carried out the Iran bombing operations.

nateevs:
I worry that the hunger was not painful and deep enough to create longlasting memory.

Do not estimate the resolve of people who hate others more than they love themselves.

In time, they will deny everything that happened per MAGA doctrine, and they will resurface.

Trump has been president for less than a year - and people think he will correct (or perform a miracle) to suddenly start making things work for them, without him taking some hurtful corrective measures? You guys should think a bit o.

Auto pen Biden was president for four years - life was bad for all Americans throughout his time in office - heck, that's even one key reason Trump was elected back to office! Now, all blames are on Trump? Na wa o.

basilico:
Mamdani victory speech. War on landlords , the volume is up Mr Trump. The system that built you up and your billionaire friends will be crushed .
New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and, as of tonight, led by an immigrant. Hear me, President Trump: when I say this, to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us.

He's just a loud mouth spewing gibberish. Let's see how things work out for his socialist policies - in a few months.

raumdeuter:
These are states that didnt vote Trump in 2024. Anyone with elementary knowledge of politics know this

I wonder o oo. All the states are super deep blue states that hates Trump and the GOP a lot! In one Fox News evaluation of the events, that everyone is interested in what the GOP can pull out of this is a huge plus for the GOP.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDMOcoOchpk

IjeBos:
Republicans were already scared of the midterms.
They are probably terrified tonight.

There was nothing to be scared or terrified of. All the states elections took place were all deep blues states - or blue leaning states (Virginia) so nothing new. What is there to be terrified of ?

basilico:
Jay Jones also won.
The guy who wanted his republican opponent dead, plus his children.

Normalizing violence.

Good luck to them all!

budaatum:
Ono, you should mention my full name so I know what you say about me please. Digging through basilicosrubbish is a bit too hard work for me, thanks.

For your information, buda has been an atheist from birth, and would be delighted if all religions could be banned. But that would be like banning tribes in order to abolish tribalism, or banning human beings to abolish ïgnorance, and that just might be overkill.

The thing with atheists is that their own perception and/or definition of everything about life is deeply rooted in logic - and by what they can see and feel. A hopeless state to be in, in my opinion. For as has been demonstrated time and again, there is more to this life than what we see and feel and life is more than logic.

There is and has been a “force” - which we as humans with limited and restricted understanding of this world and life, acknowledge that it is at play. We (as Christians) acknowledge that our understanding of the universe is limited - simply by the fact that we are a part of it. You cannot, by any logic, sight and feelings think you know in all its entirety everything that governs a system you’re born into and a part of! That’s foolishness of the highest order on full display!

IMAliyu2:
We have a Mamdate



Oya, for everyone saying they'll leave NYC, pack your bags

We are watching.

Mamdani won. We all knew deep blue New York will be hard to win by Trump and the GOP. We saw it coming.

Now, let the New Yorkers stew in their own poop. Good luck and Godspeed to the people of Big Apple and their choice.

Same for the people in Virginia. Good luck!

“The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant, it’s just that they know so much that it isn’t so” - President Ronald Reagan.

basilico:
Stupid elitist thinking she knows better than the founder if Boko Haram. He is a well educated cleric quoting their own books and interpretations. Disapprove his own words here . Trump has nothing to do with this.

Mohammed Yusuf (1970–2009), the founder of Boko Haram, taken straight from his own sermons and police interrogation:
On Western education “Western education is forbidden. The reasons are: it destroys our belief in one Allah; it teaches that rain comes from the sky and not from Allah; it says the world is a sphere—if that is true, China should be below us!”
(Sermon, Maiduguri, 2008; translated in The Boko Haram Reader)


On democracy “Democracy is unbelief (kufr). Voting is unbelief. The constitution is unbelief. We reject all of them.”
(BBC Hausa interview, Oct 2008)

On the Nigerian state “This government is haram because it does not rule by Shari’a. Anyone who works for it—soldier, policeman, civil servant—is an unbeliever.”
(Friday sermon, Ibn Taymiyyah Mosque, 2009)

On science “We do not believe Darwin’s theory that man came from monkey. That is a lie against Allah. We believe only what Allah says in the Qur’an.”
(Open-air preaching, 2006; circulated on VCD)

During his final police interrogation
“I don’t know why you refuse to accept my own Islam… Boko is haram because it teaches things that contradict the Qur’an.”
(Police transcript, Maiduguri, 30 July 2009)



I reference the terrorist own words. Stupid elitists just wash it away by calling them warped beliefs without countering them.

buda is living in lala land my brother. When push turns to shove, buda will gladly shift base to Islam. People like that are in it for what they can get out of it.

DeLaRue:
That's unrealistic, nor is it necessarily a good thing. Such superfast appreciation may create new pockets of instability in the economy.

Naira reaching N1000 by December will be a nightmare for the CBN and the Ministry of Finance. Both will prefer a slow and steady rise.

Managing an economy is a delicate game a chess. For every positive development in one part of the economy (e.g currency) there is a potential negative effect elsewhere.

So while naira reaching N1000 by December looks good on paper, it will reverse most of the gains we have made in the last 18 months when we started exporting more and importing less. It will also reverse the ongoing efforts to produce more of what we need here in Nigeria.

If Nigeria hits N1000 by December, imported goods will become significantly cheaper next year, and the country will go back to importing more of everything. Yes, the man on the street will be happier, but long term the economy will become worse and more import-dependent.

The biggest short, medium, and long term beneficiary will be China where we import most things from. Over time, our own local industries will die a slow death. We will enjoy cheaper goods prices but our future children will have no jobs as our industries are hollowed out over time. We will basically become an economic colony of China

Yes, it is a good thing for naira to appreciate, but it is better for that appreciation to happen at a slow and steady pace to give the Ministry of Finance and the CBN time to make necessary policy changes.

I suspect the CBN would probably prefer naira not to reach N1000 to a dollar until around mid to late 2026, though I don't think they'll be able to control the timing of naira appreciation 100%. But, I can bet you that CBN will be buying dollars furiously if its data shows an impending destabilising naira gains. Buying dollars effectively means supporting the dollars against the naira

Some may be surprised by the idea of the CBN supporting the dollar against the naira, but that is part of the job of the CBN. Support the naira if there is a need to, and buy (support) the dollar if there is a need to.

One question for you.

Since you're worried about a steep rise of the Naira against the Dollar and you believe it's not a healthy "development", can you look at the trend in the picture below and explain to me why it was a healthy development for the Dollar to rise very sharp against the Naira between 2023 and 2024? - but not good for Naira to rise back against the Dollar (red line with circle) to 1000 Naira within the time specified?

You don’t like it, develop your own country - and while you’re at it, fix your own problems!

cococandy:
You want me to go back and forth with you on why a war criminal who was pardoned for his crimes is now a Fox analyst offering hypocritical views on strategies that he himself has employed in the past? Because he had excuses as to why he did it? If so why doesn’t he shut up and sit down knowing that regardless of whatever his excuses were, his actions contributed to the problem he’s talking about?

You’re a grown dude yourself, stop trying the pointless roundabout arguments.

First I should clarify that I didn’t read your earlier post about the guy. We can discuss like adults we are (like I used to preach on this board) without making some disparaging remarks. We all are not kids on this board! What will it benefit us when we make the other person feel down with crazy worthless comments?

cococandy:
1) excuses excuses

2) Did you know genuinely not his name when you were asking me? Or were you doing that silly thing where this is all a game to you guys who are spectators in this administration’s misadventures?

Coco, come on now…you’re a grown up babe. Act like one for Christ sakes. You know what? No response to this your post.

raumdeuter:
It is currently well and will continue to be well in the fruited plains

In April it was eggs eggs eggs that has been solved no more egg cries, Na so 47 go solve beef too

Somehow I see the appeal with slugging it out - do whatever it takes, to get to the “fruited plains”. I mean who would not go for government sponsored freebies! This government shutdown (by democraps) opens my eyes to a lot of things in the US. I now read about many many subsidies for all kinds of people - including illegal aliens. Na wa o.

When will Naija start to give people (grown ass men and women o o, for that matter) free foods and Medicare!

cococandy:
it was in the fine print on that earlier post. But here’s his wiki page

Coco, did you read the below comment in Wiki? - wrt your comment in your earlier post? Your comment in the picture below?

"A veteran of the Vietnam War, North was a National Security Council staff member during the Iran–Contra affair, a political scandal of the late 1980s. It involved the illegal sale of weapons to the Khomeini regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran to encourage the release of American hostages then held in Lebanon. North formulated the second part of the plan, which was to divert proceeds from the arms sales to support the Contra rebel groups in Nicaragua, official funding for which had been specifically prohibited under the Boland Amendment. North was granted limited immunity from prosecution in exchange for testifying before Congress about the scheme. He was initially convicted on three felony charges, but the convictions were vacated and reversed and all charges against him dismissed in 1991, on the grounds of immunity."

Omoawoke:
Omoh, these drug cartels collect oo..

They must have really done something to pissed off the governemnt

I think it is the Trump effect.

The US market is probably no more - under Trump. All the drugs produced in all these South American countries cannot go to their main market (US) anymore. Abi, you want to bypass the US Carrier - the mighty USS Gerald Ford to sell drugs in Florida and Texas? You go wound o o o, that's if they find you alive sef. Abi have you not been following the news? The entire Gulf of America (formerly Gulf of Mexico) is completely barricaded by the US military and coast guards. Market don spoil for drug lords. I also read that recently, an Iranian-style bombing expedition was carried out in one drug producing company hidden deep in some Mexican state mountain completely obliterating the nerve centre of the narco-terrorist ring of Mexico.

All these tells you that market don spoil for drug kingpins in the Americas.

Now, the net effect is that countries like Colombia, Brazil, Venezuela and others who probably have remnants of drug producing facilities will have no other choice than to crack down on those still engaged in this dangerous and illicit business.

cococandy:

Coco, what's his name?

IjeBos:
Biden had a hand. But ultimately it is the voters. Too many people who believe the mountains of misinformation and lies online or are guided by personal racist/immigrant animus. Esp. given how the Dem politicians react to it.

You had Muslims voting for Trump because they were mad at Biden for Gaza.
That alone shows you the shear ignorance of swaths of the American electorate.

Just to digress a little bit.


Suddenly, the entire West kind of like this idea or should I say "development" that a new block called the "Muslims" block is here to "stay". They're here to "shape the western society" - laws, traditions, voting, institutions and all! And no one seems to sit back and for a moment wonder why we "Westerners" suddenly just feel at ease and at peace with this "development". Some western countries - except for Trump's USA (albeit, not entirely) welcome this development, the UK, Ireland, France etc comes to mind. They are even ready to sacrifice the religion and culture of their forefathers - their ancestors, to welcome these "Muslims" block. And to think their ancestors knows the implications of welcoming this "new" block and did all they could to prevent it, you will agree that their ancestors are turning in their graves seeing what's become of the country they fought and bled for.

I am wondering out loud sha.
