PoliticsRe: VP Slot: PDP Dismisses Report Of Wike's Selection As Atiku's Running Mate by OpinionCounts(m):
Uteghe:
grin If Atiku picks Wike,believe me in less than 2 years,flags will fly at half mast and Wike will address the nation.
You really do not know who atiku is. If obasanjo as powerful as he is (both politically and spiritually) could not do anything to him even with all the hatred he had for atiku when he was an ordinary VP, even after all the trouble he put obasanjo through including scuttling his third term agenda, you think it is a small Wike that can do something to him when he is now the president and commander in chief.
You are joking. You should rather be scared for wike's survival.
PoliticsRe: I Won In Kaduna On Muslim-Muslim Ticket - El-Rufai by OpinionCounts(m):
One problem with most muslims I have found out, especially northern muslims is that they expect other religions to accept and tolerate things that they themselves will kill others for even suggesting it to them if the tables were turned.
It can be seen in every areas of their relationship with other religions.
PoliticsRe: Uzodimma Hails Tinubu, Says Buhari Will Hand Over To A Worthy Successor by OpinionCounts(m): 6:19pm On Jun 10, 2022
Hopefully, by the actions of well meaning Nigerian's and the grace of God almighty, after 2023 election result is declared in favor of Peter Obi, the era of vultures and hyenas like this Hope Uzodinma and his kinds ravaging this country will definitely be brought to an irreversible end.
They will only be relevant in their immediate family but will utterly become outcasts and symbols of national shame to the rest of Nigerian's.
PoliticsRe: Surge In Voters' Registration: INEC Should Be Up And Doing (Photos) by OpinionCounts(m): 12:02am On Jun 10, 2022
moscow007:
grin
the Tsunami is coming and nothing can stop it...in 2015 the five states in south-east (Abia, Anambra, Imo, Ebonyi and Enugu) delivered 4,985,246 votes for PDP (dats approximately 5million registered voters already in their pocket), with the way things are going and the massive registration by next year 2023 election that number will double or might even triple in the South- East.

All I'm praying and hoping is for Atiku to make the mistake of not picking Okowa as his VP, we will join South-Easterners to vote OBI.

Igbos are every where and the last data showed over 5 million Igbos in Lagos, in 2020 Umahi stated that over 11.5 millions igbos lives in the North and they are all massively registering to vote.

they called them a dot in a circle, insignificant region with no voting power....we shall see about that!!
So, assuming Atiku chooses Okowa as his VP, you will vote for him and throw away the chance of voting for a sound mind as Peter Obi for president? You will throw away the chance of placing this sick Nigeria in the hands of a doctor and rather place it in the hands of a hunter just because of an inconsequential and powerless position of VP?
I am shocked that with all we are suffering in this country today due to bad, uninformed, unintelligent and unqualified leaders, we still have people that can wilfully hand this country over to the same crop of bad leaders that put us in this sick situation just because of myopic sentiments.
As if osinbanjo being the VP has spared Ogun State(his state) and its indigenes from the effects and sufferings of all the terrible, negative policies and bad leadership of Buhari.
We need to grow above this level of reasoning and begin to think more logically especially with the level of mess and backwardness we are facing in this country right now due to bad leaders.
You make me want to believe the popular saying that "Nigerians truly deserve the quality of leaders they get"?

ChasinGood:
grin na the croc fvck up sha. Bite abi crush something you dey dull
The snake was seriously constricting it's neck hence making it really difficult for the croc to breath, in that condition the croc will be gasping for air and not have enough strength to give a killer bite. Honestly, the croc was the lucky one in this encounter and I think it's size compared to the size of the snake helped it. If it were to be a larger anaconda, that croc would have been digesting in it's stomach by now because the constriction would have been unbearable for it to last 40mins.

It is wrong for it to be in any form of playground, be it for children or adults. A lot of responsible adults will also find that to be very offensive and inappropriate. It's called a playground not a sex or porn ground. Except it is a playboy playground, then it should not be in the open display to all as it is an absurd sight.

PoliticsRe: State Of Emergency In Anambra: "You're An Ignoramus" - Falana Tells Malami by OpinionCounts(m):
Willy7:
Malami is a total disgrace to the robe. He represents everything that is wrong with the leadership of Nigeria. I thought Aandoaka will be the worst AGF this Nation will ever experience, but this Malami of a man is a billion times worst than Aandoaka. Sometimes I imagine if he even went to secondary school. The man is too daft to even be a Clark in a village magistrate court. How did Nigeria end up with such humans at the helm of her affairs? May God deliver Nigeria from these hyenas.
He is not daft bro, neither is he stupid, believe me. He knows exactly what he is doing, he is only acting according to the script he was giving by a section of people with a clear agenda. The arrogance, boldness and the "I can do as I wish and nothing will happen, we are in charge" attitude with which he does it is what people mistake as being daft. And truly they have been doing a lot even against the constitution and actually nothing has stopped them, so they get more and more emboldened to do more with reckless abandon.

I always laugh when I hear people say guys like this malami, pantami or even buhari are daft. Those guys are way Smarter than you think, they are only totally sold out to achieving a preplanned agenda and not even the constitution is considered strong enough to stop them.

There is a difference between "acting ignorantly" and "deliberately defying constitutional norms for what is considered a superior agenda", the later is where Buhari, malami, pantami and their kinds in power that Nigerians always think are stupid or daft fall into.

My brother, we no fit catch up oo. Even if we borrow Usain bolt legs, with this crop of thieves we have as leaders it is impossible to catch up, except God grants us a fresh breed of responsible leaders.

I get your point, but that is a different discussion altogether from what you pointed out in your earlier post.

Even your colonial masters that brought you the civilization you think you have, still practice both together even much more than we do. Infact they have the most powerful monarchy systems on earth running side by side with their elected Government system.
Maybe they are also living in the 13th Century.

HealthRe: What Do You Do With The Placenta After Baby Delivery? by OpinionCounts(m): 9:57am On Sep 11, 2021
efficiencie:
Well that is your school of thought and you are entitled to your opinion. A few questions challenge your position. Yes, God is greater than all the forces in this world, yet God sat an watched the children of hundreds, if not thousands 2 years and under slaughtered by Herod in a bid to kill baby Jesus. Yes, God is Almighty and All-powerful yet His only begotten son who is God incarnate was about to be murdered as a baby and God told Joseph and Mary to flee. Flee? Why flee? Why not command one angel to slaughter Herod and His army? Why flee? What about the babies killed by Pharoah in the period of the birth of Moses? Why didn't God Himself take pity on David's baby, the one he had with Bathsheba, rather God Himself killed the baby? What about all the babies offered on the altar Moloch in the days of old? Why didn't God automatically stop that? Why didn't God protect the babies that King Mannaseh offered to Moloch? What about the countless babies being slaughtered today in the name of abortion? Why isn't God protecting them?

I strongly believe that there is a hidden secret explaining God's silence when evil happens or is about to happen. This secret was slightly given away in the discourse between God and satan in the book of Job. I believe from the beginning of man's existence in the garden and the fall of satan, both God and satan entered into a pact concerning the human race. One of the implications of that pact is that neither one of them, God or His angels on the one hand, satan and his demons on the other hand, were permitted to intervene directly in the affairs of men unless otherwise requested by men themselves. This underscores the mystery of the verse "Ask and ye shall receive". The verse is neutral and hence you shall receive whatever you ask (good or bad) from whoever you ask from (the light or darkness)...but if you do not ask, you will receive nothing! And by asking I do not mean the casual act of mumbling words in disbelief. If you believe in God or satan and agree with either of them you will get their attention and whatever you so seek...but if you do not agree with either of them you will get nothing and you will likely be the victim of what others ask for. For example, Herod got jealous, meaning he agreed with the spirit of envy, a demon, and agreed in his heart to slaughter the babies in Jerusalem, 2 years and under, and by so doing Herod agreed with the spirit of anger/murder and decided to use the instrumentality of his position to effect a nationwide slaughter. No man or woman in the entire city was in tune with God to ask for a stop to the advance of Herod? Joseph that could have asked for a frontal challenge of Herod chose to agree with God to flee with the baby Jesus to Egypt in fulfilment of prophecy. David agreed with a demon to count the children of Israel without adhering to the proper ordinance required for counting the children of Israel despite being warned by Joab he proceeded and incurred the wrath of a law his ancestors agreed to live by...life is shaped by men and women who agree with God and/or satan and anyone can be a victor or victim given this circumstances. This is why I believe that how you dispose your baby's placenta could be deadly because irrespective of what you think if a man or woman agreeing with satan takes hold of that placenta and there is no supernatural defense for that child created by someone in agreement with God the child can killed or worse made to lead a miserable life and yes God will still be on the throne watching all of this happen...because neither Him nor satan is permitted to intervene directly, they must act through men and women who are willing to be used!
I love your write up.

You made some very valid points even though you also made some 360 errors like assuming God to be in some sort of pact with the devil. God is only in a pact with his vow / word, the devil just knows this vows and only aligns himself to use it even against God, knowing that God will stand by His word wether it pleases him or not.
Most of the events you narrated above were already written by God to happen, God had already sent his prophets of old to tell his people that these things will happen. Like the killing of the babies in the birth of Jesus, Joseph and Mary moving to Africa with baby Jesus, even the crucifixion of Christ etc so they were not chance events.
There are a few others I could point out or discuss with you, but unfortunately I am a lazy writer sometimes.
Funny enough even though you thought you were disagreeing with my position, your write up actually solidifies my position that no spirit has permission to intervene in the affairs of men except granted permission by man himself either through Sin or through Submission. So if anyone likes, let them take the placenta of a child and sacrifice to Ogun or Amadioha, if the parents know their power and authority in God NOTHING WILL HAPPEN!!!
I wish we had time to discuss through voice communication, I would have attended to all the points you raised above one by one because they are issues that require deep understanding and knowledge.

blackpanda:
Gbagam! grin

Very good. All the States should collect their own taxes and leave FGN alone. Let everybody go and work.

Also FGN should suspend all projects and interventions in the states. Since they now generate their own income.

We are getting to true federalism small small grin
Before federal government can suspend all it's project responsibilities to the states, it has to first remove it's hands from all resources of the states and allow the states to only pay royalty fees from the proceeds of their resources to the federal government, otherwise they cannot suspend their project responsibilities to the states.
You cannot come to a state and hijack it's resources and still tell them you owe them no obligations.

PoliticsRe: Open Grazing Ban: Lagos Proposes 21-Year Jail Term For Armed Herders by OpinionCounts(m): 9:36pm On Sep 07, 2021
onumadu:
Smart move.

This is one of those rare good news out of Nigeria.

Come to think of it, Lagos state only targeted ARMED herdsmen.

Guns are really what to target, afterall when did Fulani herdsmen start to trouble Nigerians? Is it not when they started carrying around AK-47? Were they troubling Nigerians when they moved around with only sticks?

Can they kill and rape without the guns? No.

Smart move by Lagos state!
There is already a law criminalizing illegal possession of firearm.

This particular case for herders is spelt out because it is considered that terrorists and bandits have infiltrated their ranks and are going about killing, raping, kidnapping for ransom and destroying people's property under the disguise of herders while brandishing firearms. So in other words, they are indirectly saying anyone who claims to be a herder yet parading firearms is a terrorist and bandit and should be treated as such with 21years in jail punishment.

There's not much Osinbajo can do to change the security situation of the country. He's a Vice President. He commands nothing that the President doesn't empower him to. I would cut him some slack.
I think you are wrong.

There is a lot a vice president can do. The question is, Is he willing to do it for the love of his nation even at the detriment of loosing his position as vice president?

His loyalty is first to nation, then to the president, so except he is in agreement with all that his principal has been doing, there would have been clear cases which the entire nation would have seen where he had serious policy disagreements with his principal.

Not to say he would be in a public fight with his principal, but there would have definitely been statements or press releases etc from his kitchen cabinet that would suggest disagreement by the vice president with some of the presidents policies.

Look at the massacre of innocent helpless citizens going on everyday in the country, look at the issues of police and security agents brutality on innocent citizens, look at the skyrocketing prices of commodity and foodstuffs, look at the kidnap, banditry, herdsmen issues all over the country, look at the disregard for court orders by the presidency etc the list is endless. Which one has he disagreed with the president on?

There is a lot the vice president can do, but the question still remains, is he willing to risk being removed from office and loosing all his enjoyment as a price for standing for the truth in defense of the country he swore on oath to protect? Or will he just play along and keep enjoying himself at the detriment of the country citizens he swore to protect?
