brainycaleb: What you’re telling me right now is that if I had my hair cut or loosened, I wouldn’t have been robbed? And the police would not behave violently towards me when I went to them for help?
With such a clueless bias about appearance, I am beginning to wonder the kind of thoughts that go through your mind and how much knowledge/information you massively need to evolve into a better thinking individual!
Notice I was not saying it is right. I'm just stating how things are: Woven hair - problem Unwove hair - no problem
Princedapace: This is 2026, I am running on Gen, like I have been on generation since 8AM, I only put off a few times. Withh this nosiy gen from around this place, and mine, I am still battling with poor network. U know the network that takes 1 hour to load a page? That is the shit, I still had to rush down to buy packs of bottle water, I still need to take my generator downstairs to pump water so we can have water in the taps.
Let me tell u something, Namibia is better than Nigeria. This country is hell. Like, u have lived ur life here, just know that u have lived in frustration. Pls, there is no hope for this damn nation, if u have the resources to run, pls run. Even run go Ghana, u will enjoy better.
Like u shouldnt be dealing with poor network, eletcricity issue and water in 2026 while living in a major city. It is No na. It is pathetic. Nigerians have embraced these things as a norm. That is why they can come online to attack nations that are miles ahead of them. Dear Nigerians, u are living in Hell. And it has affected how u reason. Like, I wil buy fuel, waste fuel, then battle with slow wifi provider while my fuel waste, then struggle to pump water with my gen, then hustle all these and still dash govt 25 percent of my income as tax, not 3 percent, not 1 percent, 25 percent? This is wickedness. I hate the creator who created me here, this country is designed to frustrate u. I worked so hard for this country to take a peny from me while frustrating me. Even the road I drive on are so terrible, no month I dont change tyres because of bad roads. I have wasted 3 hours of my life plus fuel loading my work pages. Damn! And una get mind dey bash Namibia? Seems u dont know that these stuff we battle with in big cities, in our major cities and federal capital, they cant relate, it is a shame. We are just noisy, empty noise. Most of us, 98 percent of us live a life of slavery, a life of pathetic, a life of pain till we die. The few elites have stollen everything from us but we have mouth when it comes to fighting other African nations. Such a shameless country. Una still dey dig bore hole in 2026. U think it is nomal, right? U were born in it, grew in it and die in it. Shame
Note there are also downsides to "good" things. This girl below, if she was in Nigeria she won't be addicted to internet. There is a reason they have higher levels if substance abuse, mental illness, suicide. And, ironically enough, it may have a lot to do with constant electricity and super fast internet!
ceejay80s: Usa should come and take me , I am more important that those extradites, Who won't prefer to win us prison that is like heaven than Nigeria on minimum wage that I like hell. FIGURE OF SPEECH
Until someone in their prison make you his wife He'd be protecting you too, and giving you favors
engrchykae: you believe USA is here to fight bandits? Time will tell what brought the US military to Nigeria.
You think our politicians will do better? See the advanced technology they used for Madura below. If they use something like that here it's a net win for us.
zinaunreal: Lagos and Amsterdam no be thesame na. When job yakpa and I get sense, I go come dey carry gun? 😆
Job money no fit compete with drug or rob money na. Tinubu no dey work accountant when him dey sell dope for Chcago? Besides, Job yakpa for Lagos too (you talk job, you no talk pay! )
chinchum: i am not sure what you mean by honest and real money in large scheme of things. 50k is a lot of money, and there is a reason an account was flagged for a transfer of 10k-30kcad. 50kcad/usd is about the down deposit of buying a 750k house, most can not save that easily, it takes 2-10years of rigorous saving for most people, maybe 1-5years for a couple. Your bedbug posting is simply confirming what i said. Inside temperature can possibly go as low as 12 degree celcius , not -12 degree celcius which i suspect you are confusing together. A bed bug will not be killed in 12 degree celcius.
Well, I googled real money. Here's what I got. It'll give you some idea
zinaunreal: Them mend am o. 😆 But why I go enter Amsterdam go deh rob. Which kind of mumu be that? That guy is not a Nigerian. He doesn't sound like Nigerian at all. The people mending him are confirmed Nigerians 😆😆
Person in village go dey ask same question: Why I go enter Lagos go rob?
Celepope: There is going to be an increase in such instances as Economy continues to deteriorate globally. Many people are going through tough times in diaspora but that shouldn’t serve as an excuse in indulging in criminal behavior because there are alternative menial jobs that one can engage in these countries but some feel too big to go engage in them resulting to such scenario. I have a friend who have been out of IT job for almost 3 years here in the US and I have suggested all sorts of jobs to him including even Correctional Facility job but he feels too big to go apply for it. This is a job that is very easy to get less than 40 days provided your record is clean.
Probably because he'll lose unemployment or benefits by working those jobs. Better to do something with your time and have little than work and have the govt take lion share
Laple0541: Imagine! You are in a country that offers you many opportunities to make good money, yet you chose to be a thief. Deport them all and let them come and serve their jail time in Nigerian prisons.
Good money that is NOT enough to take care of your needs and still have savings. Could Tinubu have saved the $1m he forfeited to US govt from his accountant job?
Exousiang01: They will not work in Nigeria, when then come outside they will still not work. They blame the government for not creating jobs at home, when they find jobs they still don't do it
budaatum: I've been thinking about your question, and I'm finding it rather difficult to give an answer, I confess.
One big takeaway would be his writing style and it's validation of mine. Heidegger gives words unique new meanings, which show an independence of thought and seeing things in new ways. He does not limit himself to how things (and existence) are accepted as being, but lays out the possibility that we can transcend how things are to how things can be, and makes one consider the role of we humans to explore those possibilities and bring about change in one's own life and in one's environment. Basically (and to explain through a Biblical lens, which I choose to do because many are familiar with it, and not because Heidegger makes any such connection), one can either be a mindless Adam, or a creation in God's Image with all associated abilities, though I confess that might be me reading my own understanding into Heidegger.
The biggest takeaway however, is whatever I thought I knew needs more exploration, and other possibilities need considering. This has made me somewhat humble (I'm generally very arrogant, so that's a small shift on my part), and its provoked me to go back to school to learn more. I'm considering anthropology.
I'm still digesting Being and Time, and my regret is that I didn't start sooner, because I'd have understood more about the world and others and moreso myself if I had.
This is not a synopsis of the book. I'm reluctant to write one because I'm aware it's a book that has quite a lot to say, and influences people in different ways and depending on the lenses (prior knowledge) one may have before reading it. This is just a quick response to your question, which is a question I will be returning to till I die.
I'm going to read this, and many other books before I can say I have a clue what the heck he was saying. And perhaps I might actually read the book, instead of listening to it, which is what I have done.
Thanks 4 your erudite response. But don't you think it better to formulate your own unique views through direct experience of phenomena than rely on others' views? (As per the quote below)
Bluntemperor: Oga Rest,I take God beg you. This your Dictator Master that is always Annexing his Neighbor Countries, yet ,you are Marketing them,abi? The point here is that you can port there and serve to go and help to Destroy the Ukraine 44- Millions he wanted to run over in days, under a Special Operations. You seem to Forget that this Ukraine were all together under the Russian- Revolution but came out to forge there own Freedom during Protroerika-of President Yelsin Freedom For All because The Russian Federation was No longer working -but of full of Bureaucracy, Fraud, Corruption,etc that brought it to an end and of course,led to many Regions like Rumania, Slovakia,etc- DECLARING their own Independence. But your King -Putin -wants to Punish Ukraine for declaration their own Independence, because they are Close to Russia - their Former Master. Is that what you should be Supporting here that they ( Ukraine) Should Not Be FREE ,when Other Regions- Have gone out of Russia Federation? Haba !¡!.
UrVillageChief: As innn, serious juju You can't even admit to bugging an ordinary citizen's phone and still go scotfree😂 Mallam admitted to tapping the phone of the number 2 security officer of Africa's largest country and thought nothing would happen😂😂 Even foreign countries would be wary of El Rufai going forward because nobody knows what he's capable of if he could have such an unrestrained access to the phone of a whole NSA. Who knows the number of classified information that have found their ways into his palms? Na we dey rate this people, they aren't as bright as we often think.
Different if he were being questioned under torture to confess. Nope. No one even asked him. He said it with a big smile on his face!😅🤣 I think I may start believing in juju
dalitigator: Yeah! About the meeting between Jesus Christ, the accusers and the woman. It's about second chances. And doing some good where we can within the ambit of the law.
We represent and rehabilitate then try to integrate back to their respective religious faith. Give them something to believe about God.
People don't really have time for God until deep shitty trouble comes along, and then they get to see what the author of " Man search for meaning" saw when he wrote that book.
You're doing great work. Viktor Frankl was not a Christian though. Would have condemned John 8
