Family › Re: I Walked In On My Parents Having Sex, Now I Feel So Embarrassed. by optimusprime2(m): 8:14am On Mar 12, 2022*

it reminds me when of when my younger sister was a 12year old and walked into mum and dad "on the beats" ... she was horrified to the bone and considered them villains.

Folks, that was the beginning of sex education talk from mum and Dad, because before then, anything about man and woman was forbidden... even kissing on TV, they'd say "go and sleep" at 3pm... but as my sister caught them, matter changed- they became sex Education experts grin

...

I still laugh about it till today

Foreign Affairs › Re: Zelenskyy Calls NATO Weak And Confused by optimusprime2(m): 10:56am On Mar 06, 2022*

franchasng:
Some of you talk like fools without knowledge.

How did Zelensky start war with Russia? Was there any direct provokation against Russia?

Putin can't say categorically that thie is the main reason he invaded Ukraine.

That's why he is blabbing of neo nazi nonsense and demilitarization of Ukraine a sovereign nation?

He has no tangible or convincing reason to invade Ukraine. He just want to change the current Ukrainian government and install his loyal puppet so he can rule Ukraine from proxy.

Even Russians are against him. Reason he is censoring news so Russians don't see the evil Russian soldiers are perpetrating in Ukraine but senseless Nigerian youths who love supporting injustice and inhumanity are here cheering him just because they believe their support will make mockery of US.

May you all experience this type of injustice you are supporting and may everyone blame you when that time comes

Bros, let me explain to you in the easiest way possible as to how Zelenskyy screwed up.

This Russia Ukraine problem is as old as the breaking up of the former USSR, basically it didn't start today.

Ukraine is very intertwined to Russia, so despite their flirting and courting of the EU, "Mother Russia" needs to be acknowledged in every foreign entanglement.

Former Ukrainian presidents understood this dynamic and were able to balance relations with Russia and the EU without disturbing the delicate balance, despite having poor Ukrainian governments, they maintained that crucial security stability within the region.

Now Zelenskyy pops up, wants "development" and starts blindly signing agreements with the EU, of which he ignore's Russia's presence as a prime regional authority, which further agitates Russia, he doesn't take into account that Ukraine is not Poland, there are agreements you don't just jump into without lengthy agreements and acknowledgements with Russia especially when it hovers around "Energy, Military and Affiliations".

Well he does it anyway and the problems begin because he topples that delicate balance between Russia and the EU... now of course the EU and the west dont mind looking to have leverage on Russia, by having NATO forces within the neighbourhood, so Ukraine giving them access to an almost Russian neighbourhood is a very very interesting topic for the EU, so naturally they will push Ukraine to realise the implementation of a rare EU opportunity to access many things related to Energy proximity, Military Proximity and political adjustment within that region.

Well Russia gets pissed off and realises the EU is taking advantage of Zelenskyy's political ignorance, so what does Russia do? They respond... now what does Zelenskyy do, he calls the bluff and puts his faith in his "new alliances"... but of course the new allies know better than to meddle in a situation they are not a part of. (Basically it's Ukraine's problem) because In all of Zelenskyy's EU/NATO agreements, he never had proper agreements with Russia until the war started.... it was already to late. He had dissed Russia enough.

The Russia Ukraine matter has too many grey areas, so a wise leader should have ignored alot of EU offers and maintained a strong agreement with Russia for the interest of peace.

On the reference, search for "why the EU wants Ukraine" and read on just how wide that area is.

Politics › Re: Is This What Nigeria Has Been Reduced To? One Word For Nigeria In This Picture by optimusprime2(m): 12:03pm On Mar 05, 2022

chatinent:
Nigeria has been reduced to the dregs. We produce oil but lack fuel. We are over-taxed but no development to show for it. If you have a shop in Nigeria, you'll hate this country. You are heavily taxed from the state to the local government, to the “land owners.”

One time LASEPA were distributing their garbage buckets, they'd go to shops who already have trashcans but insist they re-buy theirs or be sanctioned.

The funniest realities on ground now is you'll see POS operators almost outside every banks! And sometimes, when you think of it twice, you'll withdraw from the POS to avoid insult or another misdemeanor.

We complain of racist treatment outside! Aren't we the ones who will employ Whites with BSc to boss over Nigerians with BSc and the Nigerian will be digging tarred roads in the sun while the White will he supervising?

Aren't we the ones ready to fight for Ukraine for free while Boko Haram is there?

Nigeria wey after NYSC, e come bi like say your own hell done start?

And all you do is choose who to recycle between Tinubu, Atiku, Obi, and Osibanjo? Same people who have once ruled and still kept the country in damnation?

Dem do una?

Isn't Nigeria a bad dream never to happen again?

Little wonder these politicians beat their chest that you cannot do anything to stop their career! Of course, they can achieve the boast with N1000 bribe distributed to you and a promise to empower you with a bike when they come in. Same bike they will come and ban in the metropolis? Or the same bribe they stole from you...your money?

I was watching a video here how a lawyer was assaulted by, I think civil defense, for going to ask why his client's vehicle was ceased. Una don hear about am again? Dem don sanction broadcast agencies not to dare post it again.

Let me give you sth to think about:
1. The killer of Umoren Inibong, the job seeker, wetin don do am?
2. Why hasn't Abba Kyari been paraded by the NDLEA as they do to others on national broadcast?

Reason am o

I see many individuals prefer being nepotistic about who rules them than choosing the right person. Well, in anything you are doing in this life, never let Buhari or anything accepted by Buhari happen to you again.

Baba, you have accurately summarised everything in one post...

For crying out loud, this Russia-Ukraine issue, is as old as the end of the Soviet era, however past Ukrainian presidents were able to Balance it out with Russia and the EU... Along came this Zelenskyy clown and toppled that delicate balance.

This war is something that has several grey areas, its not as if Putin is crazy, I mean that guy has been around since 1999 to observe global trends... this is what people don't know or forget quickly.

Russia has a very strong argument as regards this war, which is why the west aka the EU, UK and USA won't and can't do anything to interfere...

Have people asked this question before; if NATO is so much about maintaining the order within the area, why is Russia not part of NATO?

It's unfortunate that Ukraine has a president that is soooooo naive

obailala:
Up till today, there is no such thing as non-alcoholic wine; that'sjust a paradox. If it doesnt have alcohol, it is not wine, and cannot be called wine. What most Nigerians call non-alcoholic wine is just sparkling fruit juices, e.g. Capel, Eva.

You are very right! No argument on that one sir.

Essentially,"Non-Alcholic wines" are a glorified name for bubbled fruit juice. Infact most "Non-Alcholic wines" have no grape juice but concentrated flavours.

Because most times, the Alcohol extraction process on pressed wines to obtain the non Alcholic versions are not usually 100% and left to stand after a period, the fermentation process is activated again which results in Alcohol build up... basically if "Non-Alcholic wine" is left open overnight, Alcohol builds up... why? because it already had Alcohol.

What people need to know is that there is nothing like 0% Alcohol free wine, as long as pressed grape juice is present in it, there is a percentage of Alcohol, just that it's kept to the barest minimum usually below 0.5%.

Except the wine is concentrated flavours and bubbles... like Eva grin

Christianity Etc › Re: Alcohol Is Medicinal - Rev Fr Oluoma by optimusprime2(m): 12:50pm On Feb 06, 2022

jesusjnr2020:
All wines are alcoholic right?

Sheer ignorance.

The very process of wine making in the early times would 10000% make it an alcoholic beverage, due to the fermentation that is kickstarted during the press.

Please research how wine is made now and then.

https://www.liquor.com/best-non-alcoholic-wines-5088704#:~:text=How%20is%20non%2Dalcoholic%20wine,osmosis%20being%20the%20most%20popular

Unless it is fruit juice, Non Alcoholic wines these days are possible due to advanced wine press systems, that are capable of using reverse Osmosis or vacuum distillery to extract the alcohol.

In otherwords non Alcoholic wine was NOT possible to make until recently when the distillery technology/technique became available.

So I can boldly tell you there was nothing like Non Alcoholic wine in the time of Jesus. All wines were Alcoholic!

What I am saying is these days, if you fake your age... there are medical scanning machines that can accurately discover it during medicals and if that's the case, no contract...

So players have literally stopped age faking especially if they are aspiring for big clubs that can potentially discover that with technology

hollywater:
Awoniyi is a better striker than him.Awoniyi is a like of Emmanuel Adebayor, who can mark defenders until they make mistakes.,Saadiq is just Van Nistelrooy Type of striker.

Although I was a fan of Awoniyi, but it's very clear that Awoniyi is not a true striker... he lacks positioning, he cannot play with his back to goal, and he lacks the fox in the box instincts. I just categorise Awoniyi as a ball carrying, power forward however he is not a true 9.

I was not a fan of Sadiq, but I got to realize that he positions very well, he actually plays with his back to goal, and he can be a fox in the box... his finishing is suspect though, but between both of them, he has the attributes of a true number 9... It's very clear that if he works harder he will get better.

Family › Re: Should She Go Ahead And Be Withdrawing His Money? by optimusprime2(m): 4:19am On Jan 29, 2022*

Dainy1:
Pls mature mind in the house.
What would you advise a young lady whose husband is into betting, any salary, loan, contributions that enters his account, he wouldn't tell her, until he finished it.

They have no accommodation right now, they are squatting with a family friend.
Because the husband can not save and he is into loan.

Last night, she said she took her husband's ATM card because his salary has entered
few days ago and he has started withdrawing little by little on betting as usual. He was looking for it this morning, but she denied.
Would you advise her to go and withdraw his money without his permission? What would you advise such person?

She's my colleague and I don't want to give wrong advise.

Some years ago in Germany, a colleague's wife, asked me this same question... my regret, "was saying nothing". Now, I just have to say something...

When a settled family man is into habitual betting without his wife's consent, it is very destructive.

My advice is; Bet together #Betting couple, let him know you also want to begin Betting as well and you aspire to be as good as he is... even better.

Tools required (another house to store the things you will begin to bet out) ...

Then begin with his shoes, pack all, and hide them... you could progress to his suits later on, if asked tell him you lost a bet, tell him you bet Hull City to beat ManchesterCity by 6 goals (that you are still a beginner in betting, beg him to give you tips)... Las Las hide all his shirts... just start making the house empty on a very steady pattern, then develop a sudden habit of watching football, infact leave the house every Saturday and Sunday tell him you are going to a viewing center, can he come with you?

I give you some months he will temporarily stop, however still continue, if possible loose all the pots and plates in the house in the name of betting, let him know you bet Burnley to beat Liverpool by 4 goals... (@ this stage the house will be hot, so be prepared for anything) in all your betting growth make sure you carry him along, tell him he should be telling you scores from MLS every week.

if you escape the physical bruising then congratulations! You have passed the exam He will stop permanently.... if you want to put a lil spin to the drama, enheeeen... locate his degree diploma... grin

In regards to this loan, the Spanish Giants is set to cover 100% of the Spaniards salary until June 2022.

Barcelona originally offered Traore a loan contract with a £29 million option to make the transfer permanent, and according to rumours, Traore would prefer to return to the club where he began his career.

Adama Traore scheduled to have medical tomorrow ahead of proposed move from Wolves to Barcelona on loan until summer with an option to buy for around €35m.

Adama Traore currently is on vacation with his Family in Dubai, he is waiting on the phone to return as soon as possible, when his agent and club informs him.

This response does not make any sense on various levels...
They are literally saying that they have no data to that effect huh

First of all IELTS is affiliated to education and WASSCE annually releases data of Nigerian students who took the exams which is totally based on an English curriculum- A fact the British Council is completely aware of. If they assume they don't, they need to cross check with the UK department of education, maybe they may know something about uhhhm... Bilateral educational agreements, or commonwealth scholarship data? Maybe the Nigerian educational institutions and students they had contact with spoke Ebira...

I don't want to talk about the UK university intake data of Nigerian students who had IELTS waived. I mean, dear B.C consult your annual student visa database. Do you interview potential students in Idoma?

Or the fact they are aware that the Nigerian university system does not use Hausa, Yoruba or ibo as a medium of instruction ... yet there are annual graduation streams... Dear B.C please consult the NUC for data and it would be available.

There's literally data everywhere...

The sheer annual numbers of WAEC alone which have been constant since the 70's, should have caused the BC to review IELTS, so I don't get it.

So I don’t get the part where they say they don't have privy to such data?

Or is it the fact that the so called results expire after 2years, after prooving you can speak English... do they need data for that one??

The funny thing is, if you give them IELTS to write, apart from the spoken part, most of them would score 6 on reading and writing and blame it on ADHD!

Wicked people!
