Can the metal and tyres withstand the heat produced by nuclear energy? Cos methinks apocalypse will come in the form of a nuclear reaction.

Expel the companies and increase the number of people who are not employed.

They should expel the SA ambassador and issue a travel warning.

Personally, i've always held that religion (whichever) is a matter of faith, not of reason.
So actually, you won't be needing those brains of course (unless it's an academic exercise )

If one in three favour Calexit, it implies that two in three are not favourably disposed to it. As such, the proposal will be an exercise in futility.

Let's wait and see. Is it possible that the telcos are lying against NCC? This government is just fond of increasing tariffs. From electricity bill to fuel to data. I guess this is just their own way of censoring the social media since they couldn't do it directly.
Business › Re: Jumia Posts EUR35.4 Million Loss, Revenue Falls By 56% by otomatic(m): 7:56am On Sep 23, 2016
blueto:
Doltish trash.

But there is an even deeper reason for why Nigeria is experiencing this unprecedented economic recession and that is that even when President Buhari eventually came around to constituting his cabinet, he peopled it with individuals whose capacity to deliver the goods is at best suspect.

Let me elucidate this with a statement made by President Buhari’s minister of sports and broadcast on Channels television today Tuesday the 20th of September, 2016.Said Mr. Solomon Dalung, ‘the disabled athletes have shown that all you need is a winning mentality and not too much preparation.’

Can you imagine that coming from a minister and member of the federal executive council?

But why should we be surprised? Nigerians are witnesses to the utterances of the minister of information, the aptly named Lai Mohammed, who blamed any good thing that happened in Nigeria immediately after President Buhari’s inauguration not on any form of preparation but on the President’s ‘body language’.

Early rains fell in obeisance to the President’s body language. Barren women became fertile as a result of President Buhari’s miraculous powers of non verbal communication. All kinds of orishirishi were attributed to body language.

One wonders where the fabled ‘body language’ was when it came to fighting the recession.

The truth is that preparation, pure preparation (that word that Mr. Dalung and other operatives of this administration hate to hear) is the only thing that can increase the likelihood of success in any venture including governance. As it is commonly said ‘those who fail to plan, plan to fail’.

And the reason why Mr. Osinbajo and his co travelers will continue to shift blame from individual to individual is because they do not have the strength of character to accept responsibility for their actions.

At this juncture, it will be pertinent of me to remind Lai Mohammed of his words uttered on the 25th of May, 2014 when he said ‘a government that is unwilling to take any responsibility for anything, should not be counted upon.’ Right back at you Mr. Mohammed, right back at you!

President Buhari has to quickly learn that the more you blame others, the more power you surrender. The more you accept responsibility, the more power you take.

Early in 2015, Pastor Osinbajo called then President Jonathan’s administration a ‘visionless’ government. I would like to define the vision of change that Mr. Osinbajo and his boss promised us based on what we have seen so far.

Mr. Osinbajo’s vision for change is defined as a sports minister who believes athletes do not need training,a finance minister who thinks recession is just a word, a science and technology minister who aspires to produce pencils in two years,an information minister who wants to generate jobs via masquerade dressing, an interior minister who uses his security to publicly shine his shoes rather than secure the interior of his country, an agriculture minister who fights for land for cows instead of farmers, a labor minister who threatens banks with revocation of license when they retrench workers due to bad economy, a communications minister who wants us to pay 9% tax on calls, a transport minister who gives one President credit for a railway built by another President, an economic adviser who wants women to donate their jewelry to help government fight recession and a Presidential spokesman who believes critics are ‘wailers’ all led by a President who believes#ChangeBeginsWithMe not him, though he was the one who promised it!

Christianity Etc › Re: Help! A Wedding Is About To Be Cancelled Because Of Tithe Card by otomatic(m): 7:25pm On Aug 07, 2016
DonaldYusuf:
Why is the guy troubling himself? That's not an issue to be worried about. Why was he even considering reducing other stuff just to pay hunderds of thousands to a pastor who doesn't really understand the bible. Is tithing to be enforced by a pastor? I'm a Christian and this kind of news gets me angry with some so called pastors.

He should simply hold his church service at the reception venue and get his Fiancé's pastor to officiate the wedding.

LooooolZ! Op please distinguish between the recognised Republic of Cyprus and the pseudo state TRNC. This university is in TRNC which for all intents and purposes is a province of Turkey. Agreed it is on the island of Cyprus but there's only one Cyprus and it's not the TRNC
How does that distinction affect the subject matter?

Enforcement agent enforcing the law needs to know at least the rudiments of that law. otherwise how will he know when a breach has occurred?

Politics › Re: "Tell Wike That I Will Attend Night Club In His Village"- Amaechi Vows. See Pics by otomatic(m): 9:28pm On Mar 13, 2016
dainformant:
The minister in his address dared wike saying, "One clear message I will send to Nyesom Wike is, I will come to his village on Saturday... on Friday I'll be in night club because I'm sure we will win."

Continuing, he assured Rivers people that "if Wike cannot maintain law and order, the Federal government will not abdicate from its responsibility, we will secure the lives of Rivers people."

The event saw large turn out of members and non members of the APC who have decided to cast their votes for the dominant APC.

Source; http://www.nationalhelm.com/2016/03/tell-wike-that-i-will-attend-night-club.html
Ee be like say this man de plan state of emergency under the guise of maintaining law and order. Make him think of finishing touches instead of club, cos it is not over until it is over.


Nationalhelm should note that turnout does not signify decision to vote for a particular party.

In all PDP will still win, so let APC prepare to declare their state of emergency.

What's the big deal. The man is only a crown Prince whereas the lady is a reigning queen. The man is "His Highness" while the woman is "Her Majesty". They are not on the same pedestal since he is not the Sultan.

Anybody noticed that all Rivers state sounding names commented in favour of Wike while those who made negative comments bear either Yoruba or Hausa names.
Thank you, my friend. I wonder why some people will always be crying more than the bereaved. This is a matter for Rivers indigenes and from the comments so far, they seem to be with Wike.

Politics › Re: Flood Takes Over Major Roads In Uyo Despite Multimillion Dollar Drainage (pics) by otomatic(m): 10:19am On Jul 03, 2015
I feel obliged as a non-partisan Akwa Ibom person to comment especially after seeing similar stories on Linda Ikeji's blog yesterday.

The rain that caused the flood fell from the previous evening and throughout the night and even in the morning, more than 12 hours nonstop.

Those flooded roads were not recently built. Those are military era roads.

The drainage everyone is talking about is not in that neighborhood.

Uyo is flood prone due to the nature of its topography.

I am proud of the government of the state cos we have never had it so good infrastructure-wise as we did in the last 8 years.

Before you comment, make sure you have been in Uyo before.

Eyaahh.... Ok he lied, agreed..But wife u already have a child nau, and d child baby boy is AA. U can still be married to ur hubby, forgive him

U can add one more child, with faith and prayer ur next child will not be SS

Maybe u don't love ur hubby anymore?
Pls where in the story did they say the child is a boy?


Anyway, having an SS child is not a pleasant experience. The man shouldn't have lied on such a sensitive issue. As such I can't blame the lady for her decision. She knows what she wants.

This is the problem with africa . everything must be religious. A government that should be funding research is rather asking for bottles of annointing water.
I weep for this continent. Even private organizations will rather not fund research in sciences. They'll rather put their cash on shows like dance competitions, ultimate search, African idols, music, etc. That's why we are always helpless and looking to the west. What if the west was also hoping on some divine intervention.
The Americans that survived, was it by prayers, or anointing water /oil?
God exists,yes. But He has given us the brains. Let's use it.
