Define Brainwashed?

A Christian can choose to believe Jesus is God, Yahweh is God, Holy Spirit is God. Yet they are one God. Death can kill Jesus.

The Muslim God is Allah who is one, not divisible in to three persons like the above. One is One. Allah created death and all things and all things is subservient to Him only.

Others too have their own definition of God and you may have yours.
No, in my language they have a word for God, as do other languages, ancient and mordern. But you don't see any of us using them here because we are all speaking English. Allah is not a name, it simply means God in a language we are not speaking on this platform.

Of course, Nigeria is poor (said it many times on NL)…
But it could use/manage its limited resources MUCH BETTER!

Nigeria’s greatest poverty is that of vision and ideas. SMH

The useless economic burden of a NASS will never do that.These are the people late Major Kaduna Nzeogwu said "...Our enemies are the political profiteers, the swindlers, the men in high and low  places that seek bribes and demand 10 percent.

Those that seek to keep the country divided permanently so that they can remain in office as ministers or VIPs at least, the tribalists, the nepotists, those that make the country look big for nothing before international circles, those that have corrupted our society and put the Nigerian political calendar back by their words and deeds."
All these sayings by firemen but still useful today shows that Nigeria is either at a point or even moving backward

If you know the amount of blood shed and oaths taken by these criminals just to occupy political office you won't expect anything good from them.
If you dig well enough, you will realize they are a cabal of secret cannibals, who worship evil forces, in order to hold on to temporal power.

Basically we are poor because the source of our revenue has been agriculture, minerals and crude oil.

Which all have one thing in common....we don't control the prices of these three things. They are set in London, Paris and New York

At the end of the day, most of the time, the price falls below the level that can sustain us, therefore we must take loans to make up the difference.

Our growing populaiton also makes things difficult. More people, more mouths to feed

Meanwhile, rich countries are also industrial countries, who make things to sustain people...and who crucially control the price of what they make. COutnries like Gemany, USA, and even China and Japan

This rubber stamp is really unintelligent.
Bros. How's work and family?

I love Tinubu's bravery...but what's your take ? Do you think he can still swing it?

He's being openly confrontational. I heard he said Buhari failed point-blank. Which is 100% fact.

I know Buhari hasn't done him any favours and maybe that's why he doesn't feel obliged to be polite. But do you think he can still win?
