Bruno3000:
Wow... So this jinn has the ability to disappear?
Obviously. As a matter of fact, their real nature is not to be seen by we humans.

Where does the jinn get physical body to walk around with and interact with physical objects?
The Jinns in their original forms are ethereal creatures, but some of them have the ability to transform and take human forms. However, they prefer to execute their activities while unseen.

Be rest assured that they are all grouped racially, geographically and into other groupings similar to that of we Humans.

Can the jinn hurt people?
Yes they can, in many ways deliberately and non deliberately, just like we Humans can also hurt them either ways....
Christianity Etc › Re: Is It True That Dead Bodies Wake Up At Night In Mortuary? by Saladdin:
Those involved in the 'death industry', you guys are really trying to be honest. cry

As regards the topic, if such stories are true, then it's obvious that a 'normal' corpse, waking and living as it has previously lived defies all scientific laws and cannot be possible. Something else is happening....

The corpse do not wake and live physical life anymore, rather, it's their Genie/Jinn (which everyone of us has and has been with us all our life till death) that take their form and continue 'living'.

These Jinn know, you in and out. It knows your deepest secrets, fear, vices and touch points that makes you happy. In essence, it can imitate you.

Hence, when you hear popular stories where someone who has died and is living in another place, know that it is this Jinn for a dead person can never come alive in that form, and not when everyone is not yet dead. Ghosts do not exist, it is this Jinn that takes on this form to make it seem so.

If you think this is wrong, I'm open to debates on this current topic, exorcism, necromancy, spirit spouses and death.

Travel › Re: Windhoek, Namibia Is Africa's Second Cleanest City by Saladdin:
In as much as some Nigerians are dirty, a large number of us are not. To provide dustbin and maintain an efficient and regular disposal system should be down by the Nigerian Government at all levels!!! angry

After taking in any consumable on the street and wanting to throw the wrapper away, you'll not be able to locate any dustbin around. This will force you to throw the wrapper on the bare ground. undecided

Before we castigate ourselves, the Government should continue to do their part by providing dustbin and efficient, regular disposal system. Thereafter you can heavily fine anyone flouting the law.

The stereotype? Northerners aren't supposed to understand english right?
Yes bro, plus the fact that a Northerner performs excellently well in tasks/activities they are supposedly not 'competent' to perform.
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Share Your First Job Experience by Saladdin:
My first job experience was bitter and sweet, as I was exposed to the REAL human character in raw, negative form. And boy it was unpalatable. cry

SWEET in the sense that I got the job as a freshly minted graduate and earning way above lots of my contemporaries, with awesome allowances attached. Little did I know that I would be in for a shock.

BITTER in the sense that I lasted a little over one year because the ANIMAL FARM style reared its major head where some animals are more equal than the other.

I rose pretty fast and accomplished feats (2 actually) which none of my predecessors ever accomplished in the company. I was the least equipped in aspects of human and vehicular resources when we started out and was only attracting criticism from what is apparently no fault of mine, while the rest of my colleagues were given juicier roles, locations and adequate resources.

After a while, fortune turned around and it was clear that I was performing far above my colleagues in almost every way and this attracted the anger and envy of my immediate superiors especially when the Head of our unit praised me in front of them and everyone else. A setup went underway, and I was on my way out of the company, just few months to getting a promotion and bonuses.
I was out of the job and as they say "hunger, an empty pocket and a broken heart teaches the best lessons of life" those factors applied to me, and I learnt my lessons o.

LESSONS
1. Office politics is very real (wicked and envious people engage in it physically and spiritually), and it can turn real nasty if you don't want to indulge in it. I never engaged in it, and wanted to be the easy going fella everyone liked...naive me.

2. In Nigeria, nepotism, religious bigotry and tribalism are real factors that can aid or block your way in the corporate work. It could be very apparent or subtle, but it'll always exist a little somehow. Most of my senior colleagues in a particular region I came from were laid of for the same offense another set of senior colleagues from the dominant tribe in the company engaged in. Again, all animals are not equal.

3. Stereotypes are real! I was able to leave the whole company stupefied because they believed those from that part of the country cannot be that competent language wise and performance wise.

4. When a woman is your immediate boss, start counting your days in that organization especially if you're competent, not from her clique and not ready to kiss her ass. After change of Management, women dominated bulk of the juiciest position. The result was evident, sacking, sacking and more sacking of anyone (internal or external) who'll not do their bidding. Also a high staff turnover and disgruntled customers everywhere.

5. It's good to work for organizations with good structure and less vices, but you'll never go wrong if you venture out on your own, for peace of mind and prosperity. I've taken this advise myself and currently working on that.

Thanks...
Politics › Re: See The 10 Largest Tribes In Nigeria!!! by Saladdin:
GeneralDitari:
I just searched this on the Internet and this was exactly how it is in all sites.

Largest Ethnic Groups In Nigeria

Rank Ethnic Group Share of Nigerian Population
1 Hausa 25.1%
2 Yoruba 21.0%
3 Igbo 18.0%
4 Ijaw 10.0%
5 Kanuri 4.0%
6 Fulani 3.9%
7 Ibibio 3.5%
8 Tiv 2.5%
* Other Groups 12%
SHARE
@ GeneralDitari, you tried, but the list is partly correct, while some info are outright inaccurate. That list was constructed in a lazy with politico-cultural undertones without considering factors like: geographical spread and dialects Traveling around the country or simply picking up a book or gleaning into authoritative websites should confirm that.

@ Numbers 2 & 3 are correct, but numbers 1,4,5,6,7 & 8 are highly exaggerated. The list seem to be confusing Northern Minority tribes with native Hausas just because they have adopted the language as their Lingua Franca. The Nupe, Gwari, Ebira and Igala tribes hold a really significant figure In Nigeria's population. Old history books and contemporary researched works confirm that.

At Best Native Hausas can't be more than 20% of Nigeria's population at most. If we are to consider only the real natives, I dare postulate that the Yorubas and Igbos have a larger population than the Hausas in Nigeria especially if we are to add their dialects.

The percentage given to the Ijaws and the Tivs are the most exaggerated. We obviously do not have 20million in Ijaws in Nigeria. shocked

The figure of the former (the Ijaws) was politically propped up courtesy of the Goodluck Jonathan factor. It'll be very hard to see such figures in books and scholarly articles. The only explanation is if Ijaws were grouped with the Urohbos, Kalabaris, Okrika and other South Southern minorities.

As for the Tivs, their figure is only believable if they were combined with the Idoma, Igede and the Etulo tribes to get that %.

That Wikipedia article on this needs to be updated.

The list should probably go like this:


1 Hausa 20%
2 Yoruba 20%
3 Igbo 20%
4 Kanuri 4.0%
5 Fulani 3.5%
6 Ibibio 2.5%
7 Gwari 2.5%
8 Nupe 2.0%
9 Tiv 2.0%
10 Efik 1.5%
11 Ebira 1.5%
12 Igala 1.5%
13 Ijaw 1.5%
13 Jukun 1.0%
14. Annang 1.0
14 Idoma 1.0%
15 Edo 1.0%
16 Urhobo 1.0%
17 Ikwerre 1.0%
18 Other Groups 11.5%

The above list might not be 100% accurate but it's still much more accurate than the one you pasted.
Crime › Re: . by Saladdin(op):
Codingenthusias:
Recently, I've been hearing rumors of banks sharing the funds 50-50 with the beneficiaries.

For example, if you have 4m before the account was freezed, you will make a deal with the bank manager, and he'll give you 2m out of the money.

A friend who benefited, went to the bank last week, and was only told that his account will be unfreeze if he writes a letter to the bank stating why the account was freezed in the first place.

Although the account is still freezed, but he only had an over 200k in his account.

Politics › Re: Kwankwaso: Peter Obi Could Have Been My Vice President In NNPP by Saladdin: 9:01pm On May 30, 2022
Anaerobi:
Mr President, have you ever seen a supporters as larger as this ever since we started going round?

That was Kwankwaso question to Atiku when they traveled to Kano for campaign in 2019...

But guess what, Buhari beat Atiku in Kano.

So what do u have to say?
In order of relevance in Northwestern Nigeria
1. Buhari
2. Atiku
3. Kwankwaso

However, right now for example, if Buhari is to contest will not be a to pull a clean and convincing win save the rigging machine comes in, he has botched his records and the anti-sentiments against it is high. Coming to Atiku will find it extremely hard trump to trump Kwankwaso in Kano today.
Politics › Re: Kwankwaso: Peter Obi Could Have Been My Vice President In NNPP by Saladdin:
A Kwankwaso/Obi Ticket could have been the best combo and the 'Third force' Nigeria needs. cry

They could have given both the APC and PDP the biggest headache with Kwankwaso doing considerable 'damage' in the North especially in the 'Kardashian' states and Obi with the South sentiment in his favor will probably snatch a State or two as a united force.

Kwankwaso (and his party) in a solo contest will pull more votes than Obi (and his party) in Northern Nigeria, that's the fact, let's drop sentiment aside! lipsrsealed

One-to-one, Atiku's PDP will sweep a number of states in the SE/SS, Kwankwaso will snag almost a quarter of NW and will give the APC and PDP significant headache in the NE while Obi's LP will not snag more than 2 states in the entire South, let's not even talk of the North. grin

Let's await last minute surprises...
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Please Help! Planning On Relocating To Kano For Job by Saladdin:
Op @ Focwireless17,
There are quite a number of jobs and opportunities in Kano especially sales and marketing, but the salary might not be that much. Plus the Indians and Lebanese are out to enslave you if you're not careful.

On the side, are you good in trading, offering real services, or any valuable skill?

A little secret from me, once you have any of the above, with God's help, you'll make it BIG in Kano and never think of any job ever.

You see Lagos (and extension), Kano, Onitsha, Aba and to some extent Port Harcourt are some of the biggest place to hit it big in Nigeria (and West Africa). Abuja is included ONLY if you're great in packaging and/or have strong political connection, because it's not an organic city.

You have nothing to fear in Kano, as long as you're respectful, try to understand Hausa and blend into the society. Kano also has its fun side, trust me.

Kindly ignore some of the school children comments above, most might have just concluded JAMB and some haven't even gone beyond their State Capitals.

Cheers.

Tell that to Nigerian government and other African countries that still rely on aid in US dollars across Africa
Many of our leaders are still dimwitted and slaves to the west to function like normal human beings, else we'd have rallied around Ghadaffi and killed the fraudulent petrodollar.

Russia, China and the East will largely champion the fall of the petrodollar and there's nothing Uncle Sam will do about that.
As usual African countries will be spectators in the whole scenario.

No sir. The fraudulent petrodollar will fall sooner than later, and there's nothing much anyone can do about that.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Putin Wants Rubles For Russian Gas by Saladdin:
prettyboi1:
Just listen to yourself. Some of you have absolutely no problem being oppressed. For how long? It's this same kind of thinking you have that Russia is fighting anyways. Who is the west to tell every single person what & what not to do? You have the mentality of a lot of our vision less African leaders.
Think about it, why should you actually sell your own resources in the currency of another country that doesn't own that resource?
Don't mind those school children. The biggest commodity the US still exports is the Dollars! Let everyone trade in alternative currencies and watch the Dollar, the US economy and hegemony crumble like 'London Bridge'.
Politics › Re: The World Join Hands To Defeat Russia - Join Us Here! by Saladdin:
@OP Your hypocrisy and religio-ethnic bigotry knows no bounds. You want others' support yet, you call them despicable names. Muslims o, Yorubas o, Hausas o, Russia o; none is spared from your vile and nonsense.

This lunatic that opened this thread has never for once spoken out against the injustice perpetuated to other demography in other country simply because they are of a different ethnicity or religion.

Going through the posts of this OP, you'll find a religious and ethnic hypocrite who insults and throws bile at others, but screams blue murder when same is done against him and his ilks.

Never will bulk of Nigerians join to fight against a liberator. Feel free to side with your gay-loving, KOOL AID drinking hypocritical countries in the West. The fraudulent petrodollar go soon crash. Nonsense.
