For Esan natives . The man in the video uses his powerfully unique and enduringly peculiar brand of music known as ( Afan), to tell the story of a tough Prominent man by the name Otono. The storyteller's language is quite ancient lacking anglicised inflections as observed in modern day Esan, and therefore not Much easy to grasp.

All the calculations so far seem to assume, unconsciously albeit, that kerosine is free, or perhaps still, that kerosine is a self provident constant as far as cooking in Nigeria is concerned.

.

"Government of the people for the people and by the people. Or better still "Majority wins the vote.
The proponents and drivers of this school of thought, One of such being the Late great Abraham Lincoln, must have been very great believers in the age long saying, "The voice of the people must and should be the voice of God,...of righteousness, not minding the fact that God at least, in the Bible seemed to have an uncanny rapport with the phrases " chosen few and "narrow way.


Democracy places the deciding factor of leadership and government institutionalization merely on the substance of numbers, yes, just Numbers. It has nothing to do with how good, how bad how capable, but rather " how many. When All or almost all says yea and Nay, we others must all join too, and say the same. This might have proven close to effective for some few places in the world, but the likelihood of this succeeding in dear Nigeria is bleak, and hopelessly faint. Solely for the reason that Nigeria holds with great misfortune a record, of the world's largest aggregation, of very ambitious idiots for leaders. Making the contraption a small cut away world, were idiots run themselves to the helplessly sore and gory spectacle of the wise, who can do nothing but wait, watch and speculate, but can change nothing.




The idiots are favoured with numbers obviously, and hence would rather die than vote anyone not of the them.
The idiocy in itself is not restricted to age tribe or colour this was why able bodied youths across various regions in Nigeria with fully matured brains could lay down so many of their lives in the just concluded elections, because two senile old men were in a contest on who to rule over them.
The Intellects are fleeing, chimmanda, Soyinka, Nigerian physicians and many others are moving in numbers. A lot more are on the ready, I think democracy is wrong, (for Nigeria)... to put properly. Something else should be tried.

Menace.

it's in Nigeria you hear such things. And the saddest part of it, is that, the statement was coined by the youths in the country. Her supposed leaders of tomorrow. They abhor anything that will task them mentally.


And when those that endure the pain of tasking their faculties succeed. Nigerians will again, turn around to become their grandest patrons. It was how to their shame they've attained their present status.
The status of the irredeemably dependent consumer. So severe that they've even turned Importers of their own resources.
Do you know that Nigeria spend billions of Naira on fuel import. When they're in fact naturally blessed with the resource to locally carry out production.



No wonder our most influential celebrities so far have been entertainers, or should I say there's hardly any sector or industry in Nigeria that doesn't have links with entertainment. Is it the education sector, where ASUU strike has turned an annual concert.

Or poitics, where you hear of the singing/dancing senators. or perhaps the legislative contest where grown men, selected and chosen to represent the masses's interest, beat themselves up shamelessly, in the face of gaping media coverage for trivial reasons.
Or is it the religious sector name it.
A contraption engulfed by a circle of genetically demented band of notorious jokers. Yes that's what Nigeria has become or is becoming.
The citizens sing, clap, dance but can never think.




And funny enough the only remedy which obviously is education., that should be inculcated through the school system is what they still dare term as scam.

When European and Asian Economic powers that have scaled and are still scaling giant heights light years beyond ours , are acting like they've not started. Good old Nigeria still stuck in the 12th century already thinks her only salvation is a scam. Pitiable.

No news on kaduna yet.

It once happened in Uniben not too long ago.
Congrats to her.

[quote author=Dvd4 post=76415185]Good question. How does that link and your post correspond? You seek traffic hn the wrong


I'm assuming you're an adult.
Now, how hard was it to tell me, the link didn't correspond. instead you believe it's more appropriate to covey your thoughts by first calling me a devil.
OK the link corresponds,
just having network issues. it is why I told those with questions. To ask them.
And please learn how not to jump into conclusions, I don't own any website nor blog, so I don't seek traffic, if you're not interested, simply go on with, your life. Can't remember forcing you. careful, lest you be counted for a big and thoughtless fool.

You must be a DEVIL

Why?

A major problem faced particularly by students is financial dependence. Most of us cannot do anything that require the use of money, without first informing our parents. As regards finances we remain constantly and perpetually at their mercy. This should infact not be the case.


I decided to do research online and off, to discover easy and legitimate ways to at least generate little cash to support the one that comes from folks at home. And one that would not be a distraction to school work due to tediousness in nature.

It was how I stumbled on this site, http://www.Giftalworld.com. i must confess it has proved helpful so far. You could make at least 5000
Naira, on a weekly basis which of course
Is quite a reasonable amount for a student.

I must add that it is not a get rich quick scheme, and it does not promise to make you a millionaire over night. but It at least promises ease, in your general finance as a student.
For those who want to register by themselves, the site is up there.
And for those who would like to ask more questions drop your email, or whatsapp number, so I can help as guide. And also elaborate more. Peace.

Fortunately, Logic doesn't cut with God. If you must be a believer in Jesus then you must first understand that logic and reason are anti faith. You must be able to wear the garment of faith while putting off the garment of intellect.








Wow I'm learning
Please is intellect the making of Satan. How did it come about. thanks in advance.

Argob44 why una like to just get traffic by peddling fake news. Where in the video did he say he divorced he's wife?

the video is in about seven places. You only watched the first.

I hear the laments and wails that are now abound..that president buhari rigged the 2019 general elections. From no other group but the PDPs. This is funny because it is a case of the thief being overpowered by his stronger mate.
The PDPs are not innocent. They too, tried their rigging prowess, which in turn proved unsuccessful or rather inferior . Both parties employed the use of thugs, both tried to buy votes, both spearheaded the stealing of ballot boxes. Infact if it were in their Power, the PDP would have upturned figures too. I wonder however, why the opposition particularly the PDP do not feel uncomfortable when they accuse the other of murdering democracy, when they, themselves. Are guilty of the same.


Those I pity most are the masses, they are blind and do not know, they continue to tag obediently behind their very enemies to what they think is bliss, but is it? .
Is Nigeria that acient and primitive that out of the Numerous parties In the country, they had to pick from just two. I mean the two worse choices of all there is. Are Nigerians that dumb that they have refused to learn after almost 20years of retrogressive government. They don't recycle as critics say popularly. They just switch and exchange ApC for PDP and on and on.
Well, when a person continues to do a thing over and again, even with no sign of positive change, such a person is termed insane. Maybe majority of Nigerians were borne with that genetic insanity that even the bitter lesson of experience cannot change.

But I continue to hope, as it is man's eternal optimism. I continue to live and bask in the illusive euphoria of imminent change. Maybe someday that illusion will take on the garment of reality of true lasting realness.

henriettttta:
Hi
What kind of courses will I do
If I just got admission to study anatomy?

congrats colleague, on your admission. your thread was the one I commented on yesterday.
You will do just basic science courses in your first year. And proceed to do medical science courses precisely Anatomy, Physiology and Medical Biochemistry in the preceding years. Eventually, you will end up majoring only in just human anatomy courses by the time you get to final year.

I guess it is difficult for you to understand that when you have a perfect healthy relationship with your parent, you dont obey rituals to please them. You have the right to enter you parents room and sit on their bed UNLIKE your parents driver who even though lives with them do not have your kind of freedom.

To a Slave, pleasing the Master is a Religion of Do's and Donts!
For a Child, Pleasing the Parent is not a religion of Do's and Donts!

Therein lies the difference between a relationship and a relationship.

I love your Response!

This is why Fear of Punishment would not be the reason for your obedience to your Parents.

It is not difficult for me to understand brother. Like I said before, ...that is, if at all you read my replies, Respect driven by fear is not genuine. we are basically making the same point.

JujuSugar:
You're right. But you can't deny that a lot of Christians are motivated by everlasting joy in heaven and frightened by the thought of eternal misery in hell.

Yes it is infact, the very tragedy , of contemporary African Christianity, an uncanny brand of faith conceived and driven by the wrong reasons.

shadeyinka:
Please answer this question:
I hope you have a healthy relationship with your parents. Do you Honor and Obey them because of the fear of Punishment or because of your Relationship with them?

I think You have a serious misconception of who a Christian is. A Christian isn't a person trying to avoid "punishment" of hell....NO!

Of course, this question of yours is only hypothetical because Christianity is NOT a Religion

Religion is what man does in order to please the Divine.

Christianity is a RELATIONSHIP with the Creator where God Himself is the relationship Builder!

(Excluding childhood)
The respect I have for my parents came as a result of my good relationship with them, not because of the fear of their Punsishment if I do not, respect borne out of fear is not genuine, because it would not have been there, if fear was not incited.


And I can't remember saying anywhere in this thread, that a Christian is a person trying to avoid punishment of hell. My argument instead, antagonizes this very line of thought.

stop the dictional gymnastics.
Christianity is a religion. A religion according to the inventors of the English language, simply means a way of life. So people who choose to adopt the lifestyle of Christ as theirs, are called Christians, no more no less.


If religion is what man does to please the divine, then attempting to have a relationship with the creator is still trying to please the divine, except you just want to play with words.

OpenYourEyes1:
I like it like that bro. It made me a better person.

Suit yourself bro, whatever works for you.

frosbel2:
No heaven and hell = NO Christians

That is not quite true. Not all religions, give promise of an afterlife, yet people still practice them.

OpenYourEyes1:
Ofcourse. I was a bit refined by the fear of GOD's Almighty.
The thought of killing, telling lies, fornicating, stealing, cheating or being self-centered scare me to death because GOD's judgment.

Well, I don't think any faith driven by fear is still qualified to be called faith because what is layed bare in the face of such mindset is the presence of doubt.
Such belief system, plays culprit to why the Christian religion, especially the one practiced in Nigeria continue to give rise to new sects and denominations almost everyday.
Because their propounders are after what to gain and what not to loose.they have devised and invented enticing doctrines that will first and foremost enrich them here on earth, which without their intention, exposes their glaring uncertainty of the afterlife which they so much preach about.
And amongst mortals the greatest representation of earthly gain is money. The result in the end becomes the monetization of the gospel.

OpenYourEyes1:
Without the fear of GOD's judgment or human law/rules, morality won't exist.

So are you saying that your reason for belonging in the faith, was due to fear of a consequent experience of hell if you didn't?

It is the opinion of some non believers, that the concept of karma was merely an invention, instigated to promote morality amongst humans.This belief in karma, they also argue, to be flawed. Because, to them the ideology uses the doctrine of an afterlife, to create an infinite number of chances for good deeds and evil deeds committed, to receive recompense. Hence defeating the stronghold of certainty, which serves as its very conceptual bedrock.
And the theist being very aware of these uncertainties, improvise the pursuit of a great reward that might be, or an avoidance of a great damnation that might not be, as an escape route. Hence the birthing of the Pascal Wager's syndrome.

The question that now lies before us all is
How many will still choose to live moral, if the doctrine of heaven and hell were never part of your Faith's teaching, are you merely serving God because you were told that it pays, and would have done otherwise if it didn't. If no why?

cococandy:
Actually if there are no patrons, there will be no prostitution. Supply responds to demand not the other way around.

But you people will say anything

The prostitute came before the patron, the seller always arrive the market before his/her buyer. If the seller doesn't display the goods, then trade cannot occur.
Even if ur assertion were the case.
, fact is, it's still not right, still not healthy. And still not needed. Peace.
