If anybody kills you now, they would not be committing a crime but doing our planet a laudable favour - one less castrated banshee to worry about

Chiaka:
Explain the difference between 'Our Brothers' and 'Our Sibling' since they are different you say

EMANY01:
Pray tell who is more accurate between the one calling boko haram "siblings" and the one who says they are "brothers" misguided though knowing that men ,women and young teens have caused the violent death of thousands of Nigerians.
THIS SEASON (NEXT FOUR YEARS), ALL YOUR WISDOM WOULD HAVE BEEN SHOWN FOR FOOLISHNESS.

You guys are all just a bunch of bitter Jonathanians losing your cool over a non-issue.

First of all, there's absolutely nothing wrong with what both Jonathan and Buhari said. But if we must argue about the English words 'Brothers' vs 'Siblings' then I would say 'Brothers' is a general term which could represent even a whole nation but 'Siblings' is quite specific to family level.

But then again, you guys need to vent your energy on more meaningful things and quit all these emotional outbursts.

Your explanation is incorrect. As usual you resorted to insult to cover up your inadequacies. I will not go your way but explain to you the difference, source is from best yahoo answer, difference between sibling, brother and Brethren

Best Answer: Sibling refers to either a brother or sister who shares at least ONE biological parent with you. Even if the brother or sister is adopted, use can still call them sibling.

Brother: generally refers to a male who is related to you through at least one parent ( again if they are adopted the same rule applies but it's both parents).

Sister: same as brother but female version

Brethren: This term is usually used when dealing with certain cultures or religions. Certain churches will refer to the women of the congregation as Sister and men as Brother or Brethren ( sometimes they will simply refer to the entire congregation as Brethren). The rules for brother/sister apply here just not in a 'biological' way.

So in your dictionary, Asari Dokubo a FORMER MILITANT is a model Citizen?

I went through most of your previous post and can see that you are generally a reasonable person so would restrain myself now. Please read what I wrote in the context of the topic and explain to you how and what you meant by your post coz I cant really relate it.

Very interesting!.... I never knew you had problems in English language. So in your own understanding of the English language, the term 'Brother' can only be defined as a male sharing one or more biological parents?...

Have you ever tried a dictionary or do you even know how to use one?... or are you just deliberately exhibiting one of the Jonathanian symptoms?

These TANoids are either blind as bats and cannot read or are damn stupid lacking in comprehension: while the Jesus of Otuoke simply referred to them as his siblings; PMB was careful enough to qualify them as MISGUIDED, therefore there can be no comparison between the two quotes - only idiots would presume them the same because even the context are contrastingly opposite.

Here is what Oga Jona said, defending his relatively soft action against them while identifying with them as his siblings and members of his own family; compare that with PMB's aloof reference to them as misguided - and judge for yourselves:

Atiku! always seeing attention. unnecessarily projecting his image. well, we r watching an ongoing drama

Chiaka:

no mind am...I even had to go check the meaning of brother nd sibling again.

Stale news! Brother is even an understatement for the "Sai babaobechance"! The accurate and more truthful term would be father. The dura born is the father to boko boys! Please call them to order! You have won, your children have accomplished their purpose or do you want to rule chad and Niger too?? Dullard x 100

“As we make collective efforts to bring to a permanent end the menace of the Boko Haram in the Lake Chad basin countries, let me use this auspicious occasion to appeal to our misguided brothers to drop their arms, embrace peace and seek a better understanding of Islam during this Holy period and beyond,”

Kai Buhari is now begging "his brothers" terrorists rather than military action against the bastards

GenBuhari:
Buhari was toppled 30th May 2015.
All subsequent images of him including appearance at summits were recorded between 1st April and 27th May 2015 and being presented as current events.

There are video evidence proving the president was not present at live sessions of African leaders at the recent AU summit.

Fellow Nigerians you have been disenfranchised!

You voted General Buhari but you are getting Yemi Osinbajo, you voted for change but you getting continuation of cluelessness by the backdoor.
Wherever he maybe may the gods bless our General.

This post lends credence to the suspicion that this character's grasp on reality is on the loose side.

barcanista:

his immediate President called them his siblings.

Masculity:
his immediate President called them his siblings.

Add also his family.

truefact:
Wonders shall never end....misguided brothers....He calls them....APC and north take the rest for a ride....

..no wonder, a fight against BH is a fight against the north

Watch how their folks are going to defend it. All I know is that time will tell.

Its a known fact that Buhari is a Boko Haram Sympathizer...

Only God will judge him!

OP nothing has changed, a blackman can call fellow blacks Nigga with no consequence or backlash but a whiteman should never make the mistake of calling a brother Nigga whatever the context
