Family › Re: My Husband And I Just Found Out He Has An 18yr Old Daughter. by Reptyle(m): 9:27am On Sep 19, 2016
Florblu:
Hmmmmm.....Treat her like your own daughter and let the mother stay away from your home.No form of contact should be between your husband and his baby mama.Just like Sarah you gonna laugh and celebrate soon
How can there be no contact between a man and the mother of his child?

In my opinion, that is the kind of thing that ultimately leads to the very same issues you are trying to avoid. Soon the man begins to creep around behind you to go see the woman, you find out, trust is broken and all that you have been struggling to build is out of the window.

My advise is that you not only allow the man to relate freely with his child and her mother, but you also need to build a good relationship with both of them. Make room for openness and raise concerns where necessary to avoid any shadiness.

Don't know for a fact but I suspect the baby mama did not put her life on hold all of this time...18 years is a long time. So I do not think she will be aiming to build any kind of conjugal relationship with her child's father right now.

Exercise patience and continue to pray to God. I am sure he will grant you your own fruit soon. May God grant you wisdom in dealing with this matter. smiley
Politics › Re: Edo Election Postponement Ingenious Attempt To Buy Time For APC – PDP by Reptyle(m): 2:31pm On Sep 09, 2016
While I do not subscribe to the postponement of the elections, I really think the PDP needs to quit whining over every little thing.

INEC resisted the postponement as much as possible so they must have shifted ground due to superior arguments for the postponement presented by the security agencies that called for it in the first place.

Postponement of an election is a 2 edged sword that can as well favor the PDP as an opposition. It does not necessarily work to the advantage of the APC.

For example, the postponement of the last Presidential elections under the administration of ex President Jonathan did not save him from defeat.

If the Edo people are bent on voting the PDP candidate, there is nothing much that the APC can do in 2 weeks to radically shift the paradigm.

Just my humble opinion.

Let me see what argument they hope to present that will prove that the misguided fellow did not indulge in an act capable of setting this country on fire again but foe the timely intervention of the police.

It is sad to note that the same people talking trash here will be the same set of people screaming blue murder if the situation had degenerated as it is guaranteed to if the police hadn't intervened.

Pets › Re: Foreign Media Tag Arrest Of Man In Buhari Dog Saga 'weird' by Reptyle(m): 12:29pm On Aug 26, 2016
The western media does not understand the sociopolitical and ethno-religious dynamics of our country.

If they did, they would have realised that what they term "police overzealousness" saved this country from another round of mindless carnage and loss of lives. I can bet that the "dog owner" would have been the first victim.

Naming your dog after anyone is not a crime in itself. But if it is an act capable of stirring the hornet's nest, it is morally reprehensible and a crime under our laws.

The man from reports allegedly named his dog, inscribed the name on the dog and paraded the dog though an area of the market populated largely by the Hausas. Now if that is not incitement, I wonder what is.

Dunno about the poll. But I can testify today that power supply to Satellite Town, Ojo, Lagos has GREATLY improved in the last couple of months.

We now have an average of 12 hours of power supply daily. Coming from a situation where we were getting barely 2 hours supply in a week, that is a GREAT improvement...trust me. grin grin grin
Politics › Re: PDP Convention: We Don’t Know Which Judge To Obey, Says INEC by Reptyle(m): 12:36pm On Aug 17, 2016
IllegalMoney:
The Port Harcourt Federal High Court interlocutory order which was the first and earlier interlocutory order supersedes, override and nullifies Justice Abang Okon kangaroo interlocutory order that was given yesterday.



Any learned legal luminary will tell u the same thing.



Justice Abang Okon has bastardized the Nigerian Judiciary System.





I wonder if the NJC is still existing or functioning in Nigeria.
You are entitled to your opinion and I respect that.

But arguing purely on judicial process, the PH court cannot invalidate or overrule the July 2016 pronouncement of the Abuja Court which was that both parties should maintain status quo until the hearing of the substantive suit at a yet to be determined date. Justice Abang's pronouncement yesterday was just a reiteration of his earlier ruling delivered on July 28th, 2016.

The PDP secured the PH Court judgement on the 9th of August so if anyone is to be accused of judicial rascality and sanctioned by the NJC here, it would be the PH Judge who assumed jurisdiction in a case that was pending before a court of co-equal jurisdiction.

If the PDP felt hard done by the ruling of the Abuja court, it should have approached the Court of Appeal and not another High Court. If they choose to go ahead with today's convention, any outcome will be successfully tied up in a court of law for the foreseeable future on the strength of the Abuja ruling.

I do share your concern about whether we have a functional NJC because the judiciary has been a major clog in the wheel of our democracy in this country. It really needs to read the riot act to its officials and sanction erring judges accordingly.
Politics › Re: Our Convention Holds Despite Justice Abang's Inferior Interim Order: PDP by Reptyle(m): 9:22am On Aug 16, 2016
From my understanding, there is an initial case before Justice Abang in Abuja which the PDP is a party to.

Without resolving that, the PDP approaches a "friendly" judge in Port Harcourt to secure an injunction to proceed with its convention and compelling government agencies to give the necessary support.

The Abuja judge gets wind of the PDP's underhand antics to subvert his ruling and wields the big stick.

The PDP is now claiming the higher ground saying the pronouncement of the original court in Abuja that has not been vacated is "inferior" to the Port Harcourt ruling.

I just hope that when the chips are down, the PDP will not try to claim protection under the same judicial process it is so wantonly subverting right now.

This claim should be investigated.

Not like it is a big deal really, but the top members of the government should be seen to lead by example. recent photos of the Minister of Labour travelling economy class on a local flight was a good one...even though a lot of people viewed it as playing to the gallery.

Politics › Re: What Took Buhari 3months, Theresa May Appointment Within 1 Hour by Reptyle(m): 1:03pm On Jul 14, 2016
ayokujero:
What took Buhari 3month only took the British PM 1hour to start appointing her Cabinet members.
Currently 2 news appointments has been made bY Theresa May within 2hours of taking Office as British New PM after the sudden resignation of David Cameron.
Both countries operate different systems of government.

Both countries also operate from totally different socio-cultural and religious backgrounds.

For instance, In the UK, people are more concerned about the appointees qualifications while in Nigeria, we worry about such banalities like where the person is from, his religion, his political antecedents, etc.

Then there are party dynamics to sort out, candidates to be cleared by security and corruption agencies, then presented and screened by the Senate before they are formally made public.

Comparing the UK to Nigeria in the area of appointing cabinet positions is like comparing Apples to Oranges...an aberration.

Some people want us to ascribe every good thing happening under this government to the good work of the past administration of President Jonathan.

Conversely, we are expected to believe that everything wrong with the nation today was birthed under the watch of the current administration.

Warped sense of reasoning if you ask me.
Politics › Re: Lere Olayinka: Buhari's Lied As His Classmates Visit Him by Reptyle(m): 12:40am On Jul 05, 2016
Early life

Muhammadu Buhari was born on 17 December 1942, in Daura, Katsina State, to his father Adamu and mother Zulaihat. He is the twenty-third child of his father. Buhari was raised by his mother, after his father died when he was about four years old.[10]

He attended primary school in Daura and Mai'adua before proceeding to Katsina Model School in 1953, and to Katsina Provincial Secondary School (now Government College Katsina) from 1956 to 1961. (Excerpt from the President's Wiki Page)


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammadu_Buhari#Early_life


If the President "proceeded" to Katsina model school in 1953, it would mean he got into Katsina Model School in 1953 and not graduated.

Also if the President was born in 1942 and got into secondary school in 1953, it would mean he got into secondary school at 11 and not 10 as that dunce called Lere Olayinka calculated.

I got into secondary school at 10. In JSS 1, I was not the oldest but I was also not the youngest.

I really don't get what all the fuss is about seriously.

ModsAreMad:
As far as I am concerned.....Saraki was never Buhari's choice for the senate presidency
Yeah I agree with you...I doubt very much if Buhari really had a "choice" for Senate President to start with. I think he had conceded that position to other senior members of the APC machinery to decide.

Seeing the mess that became of the process of electing principal officers for the Senate at the advent of this government, the President tried to mediate by urging the Senators and Representatives to toe the Party's line. Saraki spurned the President's overtures and rode on the back of his PDP colleagues and some renegade APC Senators to power, while the majority of other APC Senators were gathered at Aso Rock for the fence mending session with the President.

Senator Saraki by that "act of rebellion" succeeded in alienating himself from his party and other influential personalities within his party that could have helped him out of his current ordeal.

Knowing how our systems are geared, Saraki will most likely end up getting away with all of his alleged crimes anyway...something that we all know will not happen if the President was personally interested in removing him from that seat.
Politics › Re: Forgery: Saraki And Ekweremadu In The Dock by Reptyle(m): 1:31pm On Jun 27, 2016
I really wish these 2 gentlemen will put the integrity of the Senate before their personal ambitions and gracefully step aside, albeit temporarily, while pursuing their various cases in court.

I do not think it speaks well that the person of the Senate President and his deputy are been dragged before various courts almost on a daily basis. The Nigerian Senate has never had it this bad since 1999. What is worse is that the Senate is always shut down anyday he has to make an appearance in court because virtually all of the senate escorts him to court for "moral" support.

It is a big shame.

Do you seriously think Buhari has a hand in Saraki's travails?

I doubt very much that the President directly has a hand in Saraki's ordeal. Saraki has crossed swords with much more influential personalities within the APC political machinery than the President.

In my opinion, it is those people that are on his case and hell bent on removing him and not President Buhari.

diagro:
2. Secondly, have u noticed this irony whereby there is a great FALL in global crude price while in Nigeria there is an equally great RISE in petroleum products?! Officially, we are paying almost the old price proposed in 2012 when crude oil was selling for over $100 now that that price has more than halved. Surely, the amount spent in importing finished petroleum product should have fallen with d fall in global crude price. But why hasn't this happened? Answer: obviously we are being robbed in broad day light from somewhere. I believe this is being done by some shady individuals in APC using FG structures. This can be deduced from d desperate brazenness with which they are licking their vomits on d subsidy question.
I get your point. But should you not be asking yourself what has happened to your Naira against the dollar in the face of dwindling international prices? For instance, how much was your Naira exchanging against the dollar in 2012 compared to now?

The answer you get to that question if correct, should help you understand why fuel prices seem to remain the same or shoot up whenever there is a reduction in the international price of crude.

Bottom line, if you are in SIN, rest assured you are hell bound.

There is no distinction between sins that get you heaven bound or those that get you hell bound.

If you end up in sin, you will go to hell regardless of the gravity of the sin.
