This is how these agbaya people talk nonsense and mislead the people, Tinubu hardly speak openly and carelessly, he's always working in the background to bring people together and to resolve issues, not going back and forth in front of AIT or NTA microphone.

Tinubu is a leader, not an attention seeking parrot, we'll hear from him when everything is taken care of.

Nonsense! Tinubu was a talkative during GEJ regime. He was bragging and calling himself the leader of all democrats during Edo election. So stop spewing rubbish.

Reference:
A Presidential aspirant will not comment on perhaps the most important issue of our time that directly affects his constituency... negatively for that matter...Wow!

What is he going to be campaigning about....the ozone layer?....or alien abductions.... You guys have totally hopeless expectations of the people you want to empower.

The simple question I will then ask you and folks like you is this: WHAT ARE YOU SUPPORTING THESE PEOPLE THESE SO CALLED LEADERS FOR. When it is clear that all their actions spell selfishness which will certainly lead to a personalisation of government if you dare empower them.

Coming to nairaland on empty stomach to brag about Yoruba producing a president while Igbos can not is enough empowerment for them. It gives them a kind of emotional consolation.
That is their only destiny.

chrisooblog:
fair enough. so why is Atiku also silent? abi he doesn't want to offend buhari too?

Are Fulanis killing people in Adamawa? Atiku is a Fulani.

UwaMmebii:
UNN came first before OAU. UNN is number 28 while OAU is number 29. Then why did you place it in number 4 after OAU as top ten University in Nigeria?

He is a Yoruba man. Do not waste your energy.

Give and it shall be given unto you, that's what my Bible says, I gave and God bless me. I have never lack his grace and mercy and I'm still living by his grace and mercy.if you want to break the curse of lack, pls give and give. Thank you

Point of correction, it is not your Bible. I just wanted you to know that it was not your first fruit that compelled God to bless you. If it is so, the rich will buy all the blessings. Many rich people have money but lack other things.
Many have given and they still lack.
I give but I don't use my giving as an emotional blackmail to God.
He has blessed me beyond my imagination even when I never gave. Many great things that happened in my life are as a result of mercy and grace of God. In fact, when I used given to attract a break through in my job search, that particular job didn't come and at a point when I thought all hope is gone, I heared his voice clearly that I now have the job. I didn't give anything and miraculously and speedily, a good job came.
My point giving is good but it doesn't compel God to bless you.
God Almighty is beyond human comprehension.

Paramountgift:
Tithes and firstfruit are not the same.
First fruit is not biblical..the idea of donating all your proceedings from your first paycheck to your pastor is not in line with scriptures.
If you are doing that from your heart because you just want to propagate the word and help the needy..okay, good.. God will reward you.
But it is not all that necessary and you won't go to hell for not doing that. But one can go to hell for defaulting in tithes..why?..it's a command.

Paying of Tithe is a command. You must pay the tenth of all your earnings every month for the propagation of God's work. Tithes defaulters are on hard ground because God refers to them as thieves.
Mal 3:8-12

It is better to forget firstfruit and be faithful with your tithing..that's where blessings come from.
Tithing is continuous, it promotes the sustenance of the ministry so don't skip it.

Are you sure you can keep all the commands of God?

favor2016:
Freeze pls shut up. I pay my first fruit last year at MFM, and God make me a millionaire the same year, when others are grieving cos of economic impact of covid-19, I took care of both my nuclear and extended family members completely. Financially 2020 is the best year for me since I was born. I'm packing my envelope already to give my first fruit offering this year, cos I don't want to slow down the rate God is blessing me. Listen to daddy freeze at your own peril

And God blessed you like this just because you gave first fruit? Many others gave this first fruit and their situations did not get better.
God simply showed you grace and mercy.
STOP attributing His mercies and grace to first fruit.

jesusjnr2020:
Lol! Really funny.

Na dem get their mouth. I have said what I wanted to say. Advice no be curse.

Thanks and God bless.

Can you explain this Bible verse Matthew 11 verse 18-19

Rehdasignature1:
I hope you were their to confirm its taste. I guess you are very sure that its alcoholic wine.

Get Wisdom cos its profitable to direct.

Was there a non-alcoholic wine in Jesus' time?

Wierdceo:
That part where he said "God created alcohol to gladen the hearts of men" really got me laughing hard. I like this man o.

Where the scripture said not where he said. He quoted the scripture but you will never admit it because you are more righteous than God.

jesusjnr2020:
Enjoy yourself drinking alcohol if you want to continue with it. It's only an advice not by force, so please move on with your life how you want to live it.

Thanks.

The fact that you don't like egusi soup does not make those who enjoy it sinners.
Sin is what God said that it is and not what you or your pastor think.

sapphiere:
What is financial responsibility compare to;
Cooking for the child,
Waking up at midnight to check on the child,
Wash the child's clothes,
Dress the child up for school.

If we should trade places and men take over domestic chores while women only bring in money, I bet most men if not all the men would faint.

You know nothing about making money.
Cook, bath the child and dress the child bla bla.
What percentage of Nigerians earn above 100k in a month?
My job is more difficult than caring for 20 children.
Until you get a job in a private organization that pays about 450k, do not think that people are paid for pressing computer in an air-condition room.
How much is the average salary of a house help who cares for everybody in the house?

Rgade:
Again with the imaginary rural development.
Ugwuanyi's rural development exists only in his imagination and that of his sycophants.
Ugwuanyi is hated because he fell abysmally short of the mark left by his predecessor.
Having no tangible project in the capital is even taking it too far, someone that can't maintain the ones he met.
And to crown everything is the effort the stupid man puts into propaganda and image laundering,that is the reason I hate him especially.
Do you think Ugwuanyi is making any positive attempt at development?
You think he doesn't know how useless he is?
You think you know him more than he knows himself?
Why does he put so much time, effort and resources into propaganda and image laundering.
Every little display of foolishness and mediocrity from that fat thing hits Nairaland front page in a matter of minutes.
Of all the governors in Nigeria it's this useless thing that will be blocking us on front page every minute of the day.

You hate Ugwuanyi because he came from Nsukka period. However, your pain is not going away anytime soon. He still has 3 more years.
Cry me a river.

OneTemplate:
Nonsense. Fashola is simply reminding the APC lesdership to remember what "unelectable" Buhari and the North agreed to that made Tinubu, Akande, Fashola and many, many Yorubas put all they had behind Buhari recording a historic victory the world said was impossible i.e an opposition Party deposing the PDP that had sworn to lead for another 60 years in 2013-2014.

Igbos were nothing at that stage, had no electoral value, and contributed zilch but hate and insult. They have to wait till at least 2031, with good behavior, to seek anything from the APC. Fashola simply reminds that one good turn deserves another.

No treachery against the Yorubas 150% deserved Presidential ticket of APC will be tolerated. Yorubas have seen what has happened to Tinubu and are meeting and warning early.

Nothing concerns Yorubas with PDP. It is APC we know owes us for sacrificing blood and sweat to get the Party where it is. Valueless Igbos can continue fooling themselves but I confidently dare anyone to try and deny the Yorubas the APC ticket. Nuff said.

You are a big idiot.
The north made Buhari president.
Go back and check the vote difference between PDP and APC in South West in 2015. It is over 400,000 votes which Enugu votes alone neutralized. In 2019, APC struggled in South west and even lost Oyo State.
Obasanjo (President) - South West- 8 years
Osibanjo (Vice president) - South West - 8 years

And you want to be president again because other regions are fools.

lastclaire4:
You really have to learn how to talk even if you are in a faceless forum. Someone has admonished you else where for using a wrong language. I feel this is an area you really need to work on yourself. You must learn how to win a fight without raising a hand.

And what do mean by 'wrong language'?
You indirectly insulted an entire tribe/region and that is not a "wrong language" for you.
I don't have your time.

hush15:
As it is, I am o but I wish him goodluck

Based on what?
What is your definition of wisdom?
You should learn to see things beyond prejudice and your level of awareness otherwise you may end up exposing your ignorance.
I don't know your position in the society but if you think that a two-term governor of a state in Nigeria is foolish, then you better think again.
He may not have moral uprightness but these politicians are smart and wise.
If you think leadership is jollof rice, try your luck and see.

Igbochief001:
Is that not the same with other zones ? Why are u people acting like it's an igbo thing


How many people wants to be president from lagos alone not south west

Leave the fools

lastclaire4:
I feel for the igbos but to be honest it will be difficult to zone to south est. If they say igbo presidency you will see over ten candidates. Instead of them supporting a particular candidate.

Nonsense! Even if the entire south east indicated interest in becoming president, it is left for PDP to make their choice at the primary.
This your logic is outdated and laughable. No party has ever presented a concensus candidate for president before primary election.

hush15:
So you think its APC that is willing to zone presidency to Southeast.

Hehehehe, very funny. Even though south south is all PDP, they rather align with south south for Presidency. Look at the uphill task before him! Rochas, Orji, Ngige, and the other bigger names are there, APC never reason with those ones finish. He will just come and chance them all while they watch kid of yesterday take it from them because he dey close to bubu. Make we dey see how he wan do am...

I mean its this very same greed and stupidity is the reason nobody wants to relinquish power to South East.

You are not wiser than Umahi. He knows what is good for him.

aribisala0:
Calling it madness is an argument? Calling it madness makes your opinion prevail?

Your name is Uche
You speak Igbo even better than Igbos
Your parents bear Igbo names and speak Igbo as well
And yet you are not Igbo.
This is called madness.
Language and culture cannot be separated.
Why throw your culture away and embrace another man's culture.

Benwosky42:
Ameachi is saying his lgbo because of his political ambition,offcause we know his trying to play smart for the lgbos to accept him.lkwerre is not lgbo,I have read so many articles about the history of the lkwerre tribe and all points to the fact that lkwerre people migrated from the ancient Benin kingdom. Their names and cultures are similar to lgbos because of the early contact with the lgbos and their fore fathers then married a lot of lgbo women.

Did what you wrote make any sense to you?

aribisala0:
Ikwerre is a distinct language .This is a settled research fact. I refer you to the work of Kay Williamson


Rather than say Ikwerre steal Igbo language be honest.

Why not say Igbo stole Ikwerre language or both languages have the same origin.

Why assume that Igbo language came first

stop this madness. Ikwerre is just a subgroup Igbo community which for whatever reason dissociate themselves from Igbos.
I have an Ikwerre friend and he told me everything about this madness.
He himself is not denying being Igbo.

Benwems:
I don't think she's a 5.0 CGPA material because he had a lot of 70. 70 Mark's could be easily had been 69,68,67. Maybe the examiners like her so they added few marks when he had 69,68,67 to make it 70. A real 5.0 CGAP material would be have 80+ as distinction. Whatever the case, she's a first class material but not exceptionally good. A big congratulations to her. Keep slaying rightly.

Look at this one. People like you always water down someone else's achievements.

What did you study? What is your class of degree?

flexyrule:
Doctoes have more peace of mind and a secured career than any banker. Sack a doctor today, he will dust himself and continue where he stopped in his career progression with another organization or go into private practice. Sack a banker today, i doubt if he can ever get a job with a financial institution again. Except he has connections to secure a government job which he can hardly cope with, considering the salary difference.
And even if he was earning 800k monthly, he will be worse than a church rat after 6 months. I call the money in banking blood money.

This is not always the case, banks most often, do not sack their core staff outrightly. They are advised to resign and they can always secure another banking job. No job offers what you call "peace of mind". You are being paid to sleep and lazy around.

Intelligent bankers do not become church rat because they have investments.

TecM0:
Buhari needed just 15 million votes to win which he got in NorthEast, NorthWest, North Central and SouthWest, he went on to mock inconsequential 5%ters

As we speak Tinubu is a National politician with allies in the North and South and he is a major force to reckon with in 2023

.

This one has never stepped out of his ewedu farm.

henrygale:
It is just one of the cadres created in hospitals by management of tertiary hospital to be able to accommodate people who ordinarily has nothing to do in the hospital. However, after employment, the management of such hospitals posts them to departments they need extra hand for non clinical works.
E.g. some of them are posted to nhis department to do the administrative jobs of the unit, some to departmental offices, some even to staff schools of the hospital. So there is no direct job description for them as far as I know

Why waste resources if they have nothing to do with the hospital?
Even developed countries have scientific officers and their responsibilities are:

i. Devising research proposals and programs based on the desires of the organization's executives.

ii. These professionals coordinate meetings, both within and among teams they lead, and they shoulder administrative responsibilities in personnel and budget management.

iii. Scientific officers also supervise the implementation of programs and coordinate the work between different labs and phases of the research for maximum efficiency and progress. Scientific officers then report these results to executives.

iv. They may also meet with clients or regulators to discuss, report or explain projects.

v. Scientific officers also work with other departments on tasks related to policymaking, intellectual property or management of lab sites

vi. With proper hospital organization, they can stand in for Medical lab. scientists when they go on leave or if they need additional hands.

WoundedLamb:
I am not a lady. And you didn't chose to be man. You didn't chose to be black. You didn't chose to be a Christian. You didn't chose to Igbo or Yoruba. Your were born into these just by mere chance. Thinking you are superior not because of your contributions as an individual but cause of any of these is very ridiculous. Nobody is a second class human. Having a dick does not make you a superior human being. Everyone is equal. Misogyny is not different from racism. You guys should learn to promote equality in Africa or you will never experience true progress, it's that simple.

I'm not better than a woman and she is not equal to me. We are not created to be equal but to complement each other.
Ideally, equality does not exist in human endeavour. There must be an area of weakness and that of strength. Where you are weak, those who are strong will help you.

Paul on how to instruct women: "Likewise, tell the older women to be reverent in behavior, not to be slanderers or slaves to drink; they are to teach what is good, so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be self-controlled, chaste, good managers of the household, kind, being submissive to their husbands, so that the word of God may not be discredited." 1 Peter 3:1-7


The apostle Peter on women's conduct and status: "Wives...do not adorn yourselves outwardly by braiding your hair, and by wearing gold ornaments or fine clothing; rather, let your adornment be the inner self with the lasting beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit... It was in this way long ago that the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves by accepting the authority of their husbands. Thus Sarah obeyed Abraham and called him lord."


Revelation 14:1-4


The 144,000 who will be chosen at the Second Coming: "Then I looked, and there was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion! And with him were 144,000 who had his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads...It is these who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are virgins."

Genesis 3:16


Eve's punishment for eating the forbidden fruit: "In pain you shall bring forth children, yet your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you." Exodus 20:17


In the Ten Commandments, the wife as property: "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor's." Numbers 5:12-28


A test for women suspected of adultery: "If any man's wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him...and there is no witness against her since she was not caught in the act...then the man shall bring his wife to the priest...[who] shall make her take an oath, saying, 'If no man has lain with you, if you have not turned aside to uncleanness while under your husband's authority, be immune to this water of bitterness'... When he has made her drink the water, then, if she has defiled herself...[the water] shall enter into her and cause bitter pain, and her womb shall discharge, her uterus drop, and the woman shall become an execration among her people. But if the woman has not defiled herself and is clean, then she shall be immune and be able to conceive children." Deuteronomy 22:23-24


A rape victim's rights, Old Testament style: "If there is a young woman, a virgin already engaged to be married, and a man meets her in the town and lies with her, you shall...stone them to death, the young woman because she did not cry for help...and the man because he violated his neighbor's wife." [If the woman is not engaged] "the man who lay with her shall give 50 shekels of silver to the young woman's father, and she shall become his wife." Ephesians 5:22-23



The apostle Paul on husbands and wives: "Wives, be subject to your husbands as you are to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife just as Christ is the head of the church." 1 Corinthians 14:34-35


Paul on women's conduct in church: "Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak... And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home

WoundedLamb:
Immorality? Women empowerment and gender equality are immoral now?

Lmao... africans, you guys are so funny. People are either complaining of being brutalized by the police or marginalized by the government but nobody really wants a system that promotes equality for all. You only complain when you're not favored. Otherwise you don't care. Everyone thinks they are somehow better. Tribe A feels superior to tribe B, the straight people feel superior to the gay people, men feel superior to women. Why won't police feel superior to civilians?

Subjects like campaign for girl child education, campaign against gender bias, women empowerment and skill acquisition, etc. aren't for you, right? And yet you would go around complaining Nigerian women are too dependent. Do you guys even know what development is in Africa? Do you know what human development index is? Do you think Nigeria's HDI will go anywhere if women are not encouraged to burst their limits without prejudice?

You know what, bro. It's 11:20PM here, I need to go to bed. Enjoy yourself. Whatever you type next is fine.

You are not equal to a man and you will never be.
God created us different so that we can complement each other.
Unless you have a strange concept of the word "equality".
Feminism is evil.

BigMamaNaija:
Who is China in world TRADE?!!

By the way, why is the Korean lady showing off bare ring fingers? Does she think advertising her being without any marital 'entanglement' will give her any advantage?

NOI to the world!

China has economic power but they are nowhere in world politics.

ForestHill:
China is behind the Asian nominee; too many politics to this position. Okonjo might not win.

Who is China in world politics?
