RomanceRe: Lesbian Tastes Manhood For The First time, Refused To Go Back To Partner by papyjaypaul: 4:28pm On May 22, 2025
Hisroyalbadmeat:
Nature always wins grin
History can be written again to favor some people but truth cannot. Homosexuality is a mental disorder and medics said this until the 70s liberation. What I know about some lesbians is that they went into LGBT because they didn't like how men rough handled them. Some of them are also victims of rhayype so they can't bring themselves to being with men, they prefer to be safe with women who they think are safer and not as dangerous as men. Some women also don't like sex, I have forgotten the word used for it but the point is, these are mental problems. Men were made for women and women for men. I still laugh at my sisters today who think freedom was the solution to the abuse of men. I laugh at them because they bring the problems but use another problem to solve the problem.

They say their mothers of the past were weak, they were imprisoned, they were not aware, that's why they let men marry more than 1 and abuse them. I don't encourage abuse but they failed to learn from women of those days and now that women are now solving their problems, they can see the other problems. You cannot do without men. It's still a man's world. If you like, have all the money in this world, have your career, have your freedom, nature will still nature. How can women who had their farms, had their shops and had money gather together and marry one man? Do we think those women were just following culture, do you think they couldn't think for themselves? Do you think they wanted to fight the man as the head? Do you think they didn't have much power than the man? You all gonna learn. Our forefathers and their wives made mistakes but they knew how to survive with culture. All these western ideas is only setting you up for self destruct. God bless our ancestors for their wisdom. They knew that society was more important than me me me ❤️

PoliticsRe: I Will Remove Criminality In Fuel Subsidy Before Removing Subsidy Itself -Obi by papyjaypaul:
lionshare:
What caused subsidy? How exactly can one remove corruption in subsidy prior to removing subsidy? Pls be logical
Good question. The current President wrote what he said should be done.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJp4HxZ2p-g

Read it here

The exact thing Tinubu said when Jonathan removed fuel subsidy in 2012 by Toks2008(m): 6:49pm On Jun 04, 2023
https://www.nairaland.com/7714901/exact-thing-tinubu-said-when

Now Obi is doing the same thing as opposition. If he won the Presidency and changed mouth, we will remind him of what he said before he got there.

But the ACN national leader cautioned the president against being captive to economic orthodoxy and its local purveyors, who always look at the Nigerian economy as nothing until when tied to the apron strings of the conservative orthodoxy.
“Because he is slave to wrong-headed economics,” Asiwaju Tinubu said of President Goodluck Jonathan, “the people will become enslaved to greater misery. This crisis will bear his name and will be his legacy. The people now pay a steep tax for voting him into office. The removal of the subsidy is the ‘Jonathan tax’,” he insisted. “The situation shows that ideas count more than personalities. People may occupy office but how that person performs depends on the ideas that occupy his mind.”
Insisting that the subsidy removal was ill-timed, he said there must be some conditions precedent before such a step could be taken.
“First government needs to clean up and throw away the salad of corruption in the NNPC [Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation].
His party knew that what PDP was doing was on the right path but for politics, they were ready to go against the government because it would have affected their chances of winning an election


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


Now to answer your question directly. Nigeria has refineries but it refused to use them and they keep doing TAM, all the Ministers of Petroleum under Buhari promised to get the refinery working, they gave us different dates, it never worked.
Ibe Kachikwu first promised to resign if local refineries don't work

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNeDWcLyfiY?si=bns20XOWE_g5PQ-3

And then they kept promising when it was going to work. NNPC promised us that the local refineries will work before 2023 and then we discovered that Dangote, a private company will be rescuing Nigeria. So Buhari made sure he commissioned it before he left because Dangote did not want a repeat of what happened under Yar DUA in 2007.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBfmNmmCaKs?si=pWSrXwtnxBg0lQnk
The government did not hold anyone responsible for its failure, no one was punished and corruption kept running. The state refineries aren't working.

Now let's go back to subsidy. Let's agree that Nigeria cannot meet its local demand due to corruption. Then the government granted some marketers license to import the product then it found out that these people were inflating prices, they were not importing what they said they would do, they cut corners and some of the importers are just on the list to collect government money, what do you do as a government? Say we will close this program because we cannot punish those who are taking advantage of the system?

Sir, the government can tackle both if they want to. The corruption they allow makes it look like the problem is bigger than it is. Some analysts said Obi would not have the balls to deal with the cabal like Asiwaju has, please tell me, is he afraid to call their bluff? Are the refineries still working? Is he scared of them? Isn't he the same person who can remove a democratically elected governor but all of a sudden, will be scared of a so called cabal? They should tell that to the marines. Government is complicit in the issue. People can now see that subsidy itself was not entirely bad because it was a social contract. What was wrong was to cancel subsidy without appropriate replacement. We don't have local refineries producing and we still prefer to import. The corruption showed its hand when Dangote started refining. We didn't punish those who take our oil outside Nigeria to sell, we didn't punish those selling our unrefined crude and security personnel that could be complicit, it's ordinary Nigerians we said must be punished for the sin of a few. Nigeria we hail thee.

Chienex24:
He was much respected in Doha and across the Arab states he visited, so it was natural for him to behave like a good guy where he is honored. He actually does not expect to be always on top, as he respected PM Meloni of Italy very well when she came to white house. He obviously had issues with south Africa before Ramaphosa decided to come to the white house, and Trump does not pretend. He also was expecting zelensky to sign the minerals deal, but Zelensky wanted security guarantees ist which he didn't support. In summary, he respects those who respect themselves.
I don't think so. Your analysis is good but in international diplomacy, it's not about your sentiment. The leader of any country deserves their respect. He disrespected Trudeau of Canada and when they elected a new PM who visited him, he spoke about how he didn't like Trudeau and his people. Is that election interference or what? You can't cherry pick who you want to like or dislike when the people of that country have their leaders. The world does not respond to your tantrums and you can't always get what you like. There are also things you don't say to the media as a leader, not because you can't say the truth but because bilateral relations can be affected.

BTW, he and Doha Emir are friends.

Well, we now the capacity of Abacha boy
He is correct. Removing subsidy without removing what caused the subsidy is punishing Nigerians for a crime a few committed. The government is not willing to hurt people but some people think the government had balls. The person who had half a ball was Buhari who didn't put it in subsidy in the budget, which meant he had already removed it but his half ball delayed the announcement which Tinubu saw as a trap and announced it. This is Tinubu's first budget.

Are you sure you know what you are saying? Britain literally colonized USA. I will say it another way, USA got its independence from Britain. Britain still holds two big countries, Canada and Australia. Britain colonized two big countries in Asia, China and India that you mentioned.

They want to control us from behind the scenes and they will watch what is trending and who is trending.

I watched Trump at Doha and there are two things to know about him. If you are taller than him, he respects himself. If you respond calmly to him, he loses himself. He expects to be on top all the time. It is unwise to play to his advantage.

Just look at him here

He carried his two legs to Doha and behaved like a good boy. It is also a reminder to everyone, RESPECT YOURSELF FIRST.

PoliticsRe: Why I Disagreed With Atiku's Camp Over Vice President Slot - Peter Obi by papyjaypaul: 3:36pm On May 21, 2025
Obi you have done well. As a former VP candidate, you walked out and contested against your principal who himself is a former VP and the ruling party and within 6 months, became 3rd. Despite their attempts to make you look like a regional champion or it was some angry kids who Endsarsed you, reasonable Nigerians know the truth.

Imagine Osinbajo left the party after his loss in the primaries to Tinubu to contest the Presidency? That was exactly what Atiku did in 2007, the first politician who decamped while in office as VP. Is it karmic that his VP candidate last election defected to APC? The first of its kind. Or is it the second?

It will be foolish for Obi to be Atiku's VP now. As Atiku's vice presidential candidate, you had 11m votes in 2019 and PDP had 15m. In 2023, without Atiku, you had 6.1m votes under LP, PDP had 6.8m and APC had 8.7m. No one needs to tell you you did well on your own.
