Is there really any big deal in Emirates coming back?

I no be international flyer, but i have never heard passengers were stranded because Emirates left

BlueRayDick:


Abi.

The news that would make much difference is if Dubai visa ban is lifted . There are people who have genuine business in Dubai and have not been able to go due to the visa ban wahala

So today is the International Day of the Boy Child, and nobody talk.

I did not see organisations disturbing my SM with different flyers and campaigns

Eunoiaa:


How utterly shocking.



Let me even go and check Andrew Tate's social media pages and them Kai Cenat and twitch streamers socials dem.

I will make sure to also branch the redpill community on NL here on my way there.

BlueRayDick:


Chai!

This is one of the reasons why most people who agitate for disintegration of this country do so.

Like we are so different in “culture “; the things that seem normal in the north appears abnormal to us here in the south and vice versa .

I also had my own share of cultural shock during NYSC when I was walking in town with fellow coroners and I hung my hands across the female corper’s shoulder without much self awareness. I no know say as we Dey waka almost everybody was looking at us with a sneer on their faces at my “disgusting” public show of affection.

Nigerian government has been borrowing pension funds for as long as I can remember.

Pension fund managers are one of the biggest investors in NTBs and savings bond. When you buy fixed income instruments from the government, you're essentially borrowing the government money.

Why is this one generating so much uproar?

BlueRayDick:


If u read the woman's petition to the IGP, u will see where she mentioned the issue of Childs right act.

How can a lawmaker be seen not only encouraging but sponsoring the marriage of underage girls in their dozens and then tagging it as constituency projects?

I don't think the woman is in the wrong for raising the issue ; it is within the purview of her office. Except of course if we are saying she's only on the seat to protect the right of southern girl child and not northern girl child.

This country sef!

It took me few minutes to figure the reason why everyone focused their attention on us cos that is actually not the first time they are seeing corpers. As I realize what the issue is, I quickly adjusted o cos they actually had sharia law in force , but it appears it doesn’t really apply to non-Muslims/ non-indigenes . From that day I just try to be on my best behavior once I’m not within our safe space ( Corpers lodge and the school compound )

Portable may be a lot of things negative , but he’s also one of the most intelligent guys currently in the music business in Nigeria

The weyrey even add the soundbite of the people wey arrest am inside song 😂

He was released yesterday on bail and today he already has a song about the incident out. Guy is milking every negative situation to make money .

It will shock the lady car owner that na proceed of the music he go use pay the gbese 😂😂

Exactly, anything short of a balkanization or renegotiation of this rogue entity will see us go nowhere. These northerners take their culture/religion thing more important than any form of progress you're offering them...no be the same people Jonathan build almajiri school for dem say dem no wan go cause of some cultural kinikan...federal government backed standard schools, and they need cajoling to attend.

raumdeuter:

Every part of Nigeria are serious with their culture and religion. We take those things very serious. Let anyone talk rubbish about Oba of Bini and see the red eye of Bini people

There are many cultures in this country and many things are difficult to swallow for the next person. You just need to understand them and leave them alone. The people you are trying to "help" will be the first to attack you. Even within the South, there are certain customs yo will hear about and just look away

I remember in my NYSC and I hustled to get Polio vaccinaton from UNICEF office for the LGA. The LG chairman says if this will mean any man entering their house and violating " Ba Shiga" laws then they will rather choose polio

I told him that the Sultan of Sokoto has given a speech approving the polio vaccines and he replied in Hausa that let the Sultan do it in his own compound and palace and leave them alone

I had to pass the project to the female corpers and they gave the female corpers laws like No trouser, must be in wrapper, Must cover head etc

Theflint1:
I swear, the guy na smart rogue, I con even dey ask myself whether the whole drama na film abi na real...gotta hand it to him sha, the guy sabi this social media thing.

Theflint1:
Yea, the woman no really try, if you're in the public eye, you can't use social media vibes and personal cultural disposition approach issues of this nature. I doubt the woman even know say na cultural and not criminal issue, hence her approach. She holds a sensitive and very important position, it's just sad that she's not quite fit for the job.

BlueRayDick:


It is not a cultural issue per se.

The child rights act which protects the right of the girl child and actually does not support child marriage has been domesticated by 34 out of 36 states in this country . (It’s only Kano and Zamfara that are yet to codify the law in their respective states)

Well I don’t know if Shari’a law supersedes the Child Rights act, but certainly this is not a cultural issue but one that bothers on the legality of the honorable’s actions.

For all it is worth , I will like the ministry to take the matter up in court and let them test the matter in a law court . Let’s see how it goes

Culture vs the Constitution, the law will always win. But, who's going to enforce it? Nigerians have proven over and over again to be ridiculously loyal to religious and cultural matters, most even respect those two things above the Nigerian constitution.

This is just like when the Supreme Court ruled that women must be allowed to inherit properties of their parents in the South East, but till today the women there are not allowed to inherit the properties of their fathers despite a ruling from the supreme Court ordering that. I'm sure you agree with me that there's nothing wrong with a female inheriting her father's properties, but you had to see the energy that south easterners used to insult the Supreme Court throughout that month for giving a fair and sane ruling.

@ramdeuter is right when he says the north isn't the only place with archaic and inhuman practices/ cultures. You just haven't visited enough places in the south.
If you visit some places in the south, you'd think you're in 1854.
The only difference is the northerners seem to make the news more often.

raumdeuter:


You might say the Law wins but the people who hold the culture dear will find a way around it. For example in the Nigeria there is freedom of movement, but when there is Oro festival and the people of Ikorodu refused to come out, or your business in Ikorodu, the employees refuse to come outside will the law go into their house and drag them outside?

Or say some places where they don't marry Osu, even if you outlaw it and assign Nigerian army to enforce, will you go and carry an Osu woman by force into the house of one that is not and use koboko to make sure they are married??

US where Polygamy is illegal, yet some people practice it, they will simply say the first wife is the legal wife and the one married in court, the other wives will just be "sisters" though sleeping together and bearing children. So how will the police prosecute them? or they will sit in the living room and watch which bedroom sister enters to collect gbola every night? Even if they catch them on top one another, they will claim they were cheating and the first wife has a forgiving spirit

Law is the easiest thing to change, changing the mind of he people regarding those cultural issues is the hardest

Nigerian Judiciary wey two Federal High Court go dey give different judgements?
