Foreign Affairs › Re: Colombia Bans Coal Exports To Israel by samsard(m): 4:13pm On Aug 19, 2024
Krismas:
grin Ask yourself WHY ARE JEWS MOST PERSECUTED? [b]Cos of their selfishness, manipulation, Theft, moral deprivation, wickedness, murderousnes[/b]s etc. this was why even Hitler turned on them. As for the Arabs, most leaders of the GCC are Jews. They were installed by the west. They are fake Arabs.
How about we turn around the bolded and use as justification for murder of Arabs or something similar? L
The bolded are characteristic of every human civilisation and that's why they end eventually or descend into chaos. Nigeria? Romans, the British Empire, Mesopotamia, the Aztecs perhaps.
Hitler was basically an ethnic supremacist and purist who had a vision of what he thought was the perfect and purebred German. Something that has little or no basis in reality. Anyway, the same Jews he was persecuting were the ones at the front lines of science that gave the war the West.

Most of those supporting isreal are either ignorant, goyims, been threatened or they are scared of Israel.
But for those who know who the Jews are, over time cool
Just go through history
And how better are the Arabs or other races and ethnic groups? Human history is filled with blood and violence. The Jews are some of the most persecuted groups in human history. They or at least their leaders may be murderous blood suckers at this point, but you don't survive among avowed enemies by being a nice guy.

What is rape?what is marriage?or are u a rapist?am not suprised
A child cannot consent to a marriage, are not physically ready for it, and are considered to be impressionable, so it'd be irresponsible for any adult to have a sexual relationship with a minor under whatever terms religion or society permit it.

Hypocrites, Yet Obi couldn’t preach to Otti to manage the present governments house . Aren’t you aware Otti wants to build a new government house in Abia under Loser’s Party (LP)
Maybe you guys should stop this party politics foolishness because even you are a loser in the grand scheme of things when we have inconsiderate politicians.
What are the merits or demerits of the opinion? Some people on this platform would rather die on the alter of party politics than point out a clear failure of principles. Meanwhile most of the politicians are only after selfish interests regardless of the banner they fly.

This was a big blow to Peter Obi's supporters who insist Tinubu didnt win the election.

A mandate thief appealing to the mandate holder.
Do you know the problem with this Nairaland platform users? Most of you guys talk and argue like touts. Most times you're only interested in being partisan without addressing the issues and the merits/demerits of the arguments presented. It's almost nauseating reading from people hear making every issue a we vs them matter. It's either ethnic, religious or party or some other drab stuff. This was the same attitude from 2015, there was nothing Buhari could do wrong. He left and we find out as suspected that the man printed loads of cash, triggered inflation and tactically left the subsidy decision to Tinubu while he window-dressed the problems.
You people can do better than this clannish attitude. Peter Obi said what is politically correct and arguably required at this time. The court declared Tinubu the rightful winner, Tinubu is the president regardless of what any Obedient wants or thinks and that is what counts at this point. Unlike Buhari he doesn't threaten fire and brimstone and has not tried to use the situation selfishly.
This kind of attitude is why many people threatened to "teach Peter Obi and his supporters a lesson," a lesson even Dangote is learning now and average Nigerians bear regardless of ethnicity, party affiliation and religion.

Chinkoalhaji34:
Niger Deltans should channel their energy into more productive ventures rather than protests that yield no results.

The noise won't change the situation; it's just a distraction from the real issues at hand. Time to focus on solutions, not street drama.
Please tell us the solutions and issue at hand, smart ass.
Protest suddenly went out of fashion when APC and Tinubu went from opposition to ruling party with even worse economic metrics.

Scared of a ladyhuh cheesy cheesy

His reasons are valid and i wander why he has to appear this time again after defeating their big boss Biden

Trump's is so eloquent that it would only take him 10mins to win u over

Not some lady that goes about using sexism petty moral appeal to convince those who do not have a mind of their own
Of all the traits that sells Trump's candidacy, eloquence is the furthest down on the list. He's blunt but certainly not eloquent. And bluntness in politics may be considered honest by some but it may also means the person doesn't filter his thoughts, which is not a good thing.

She gained weight
I am only interested in slim ladies
Thick/curvy/slim-thick/full-bodied women (or any other term that denotes added weight) are a no-no for me
Maintain/control your weight or get out of my life
If you ever plan to marry, prepare for your lepa wife to possibly blow up during pregnancy. By then the least of your concern (if you're not callous sha) will be her weight gain.

How many people even graduates will have the chance in life to become CEO of a fortune 500 company - MR. AMBITIOUS NIGERIAN?

With the way your country is milling out unemployable graduates every year? you may have to create 20 million fortune 500 companies so all your graduates can seat there as CEO with their worthless certicates grin grin grin grin

Oga, I live in the real world - you do not even need a degree to be the best in anything you do in life- you need a lucrative skill set.
Mark Zuckerberg is a Harvard drop out - he did not need that paper certificate to found Facebook - guess what - when he succeeded with facebook- Harvard invited him to give him a honorary Ph.D and for many years he has been employing Harvard graduates to be his workers - the so called graduates -

Bill Gates nko, drop out from Harvard - he did not need degree to be the Founder of Microsoft - Steve Jobs nko, drop out - he did not need a degree to found Apple Computers - the maker of the iPhone all your Nigerian graduates cant even afford.

What about your Aliko Dangote here in Nigeria? which school him go? and the other day he was employing Masters degree holders to drive his trucks grin grin grin

abeg shift- if you have nothing meaningful to say go sleep - biko
Oh, let me guess, all the engineers at Qualcomm, Apple and Microsoft as headed by Steve Jobs and the rest are college dropouts? Steve Jobs was more of a manager than a technical or science person.
And forget that thing about CEOs being college dropouts, those are a small minority in the grand scheme of things because statistics shows that most founder CEOs and top management have proper formal education and advanced education.
Those men still need people with proper certifications and formal education for a lot of things and they educate themselves privately, which is not something everyone is capable of.
Even in America, a lot of their college grads are more of liberal science Grads who would be considered "unemployable".
You don't sound like you're saying anything remotely meaningful either. Taking a niche case and making it sound like the norm

and who told you vocational education is not education ? what is education to you ? cramming and regurgitating dense texts in a book for exam purposes? this is the problem with Nigeria - we do not see the picture and even when we do- we have this penchant to ignore it.

Come to the US and other developed societies, with you Bsc and Msc - your Boss on that job is just a GED or WAEC (equivalent holder) He becomes your Boss because he has on the job experience that you do not have and he is a team player - no big emphasis is placed on degrees or certificates which they see as just a receipt that you payed to attend a class to cram dense text to regurgitate for 4 years - you get it?
Oh. Why don't you tell me GED holders are the major ones innovating in Fortune 500 companies and also holding top management positions?
You think we're all village people with no exposure, abi?
And where did I say vocational education is not education.
Hope you're not comparing the almost disorganised vocational training we have here with structured systems in the west?

In the US, you cannot apply to write the LSAT (Law School Aptitude Test) t o gain admission to study Law if you do not have a 4 year degree- Meanwhile, In Nigeria, anyone, fresh from one secondary school - "barely able to clean their anus in terms of reasoning and life experience" will write WAEC and JAMB in "miracle centers" and baam! - they are reading Law or Medicine in a University. In America, you can not read Medicine without, first, having a degree in one of the natural sciences like BCH (BioChem) MCB (MicroBiology) or even Pure and Applied Chemistry. Even for regular degrees like (Business Admin, Political Science, Philosophy or even Finance) most times - most schools prefer you get your 2 year Associate Diploma (what we call OND) from a Community College before applying for a degree program so they can evaluate your ability to cope with the University degree program -

Naija always finds a way to bastardize and make chaotic - things done with integrity and orderliness in other climes -------> why the rush to graduate kids from Universities when they may be book smart but lacking emotional intelligence required for a balanced University education?

Why not enrol that kid in vocational education to spend that age 16 - 18 learning a life skill so when they get to the university- they can be earning a living with their new skill and sustaining themselves while in school to reduce the financial pressure on their parents ? What is the need of graduating at age 19, serve at age 20 and becomes miserably unemployed - doing yahoo yahoo and hook up from age 21 to 40? rabbissshhh!!!! angry
We have 60-80 year Olds who run this country and lack any sort of emotional intelligence. Let the books smart kids go to school at 16 if they meet the requirements. There's a place for trades in every society, it doesn't mean every kid should learn a trade.

Beremx:
that's how it should be. Back in those days, 18yrs was the right age. You leave secondary school at 17yrs, primary school at 11yrs and nursery school at 6yrs
Back in the days is not these days. I think this is archaic at best. In the West, some 20-year-olds are already college graduates. Here we probably try for JAMB for a few years. Then we deal with long strikes for 4-5 year courses and a labor market that wants graduate trainee applicants who are 24-year-olds and through with youth service.
As long as a teen, especially a gifted one, can reliably meet the academic requirement for admission, we shouldn't let the dinosaurs hold us back with their colonized African mindset.

No.

They're gonna try and rob the idiots who won't stay allow social media rest with their riches. And the idiots are the millionaires, not the billionaires.

Even if u flaunt 50k online, the man who has only 100 naira in his account can be out to get u out of frustration and envy.
This makes no sense. How many people try to rob rich arabs who make sure everyone knows how rich they are?
Even poor or middle class people are getting kidnapped for ransom. The issue is above and beyond flaunting of wealth.

But the black man will post videos of himself on arrival in England and talk about how much he got yesterday.
Let me ask you, who is dumb enough to think that an American rapper that posts cash is wealthier than a billionaire whose wealth is public knowledge?
We have a fundamental issue with security.

Warren Buffett is worth over $70 billion dollars and it's public knowledge. This man lives an American middle class neighbourhood and drives himself most times. He's not been kidnapped. Nigerians don't realise we have a fundamental problem.

That's their fair share of voting. Tinubu. They should enjoy it while it lasts.
Zero humanity and zero sense.
Benue vote was almost 50:50 to APC and opposition. Even if it was 99% APC it doesn't mean you should be this callous. Plus this has been happening since Jonathan.
Also, if you don't realise the implications just yet, food will keep getting more expensive because agrarian states are not safe. Plus, it's not just Benue.

Hummm. Whatever you do, make sure you get a car in pretty good mechanical condition or that requires only minor fixes because a bad car can be terrible for your finances. 200k used to be a whole lot in Nigeria for a single person who doesn't splurge recklessly, not these days now unfortunately.

I think you should be the one going back to school, chief.
How do you think the federal government and states have so much naira revenue now from FX earnings? It's the weaker exchange rate. They have a huge increase in wage bill coming in and it's going to be paid in naira while they have dollar debts/revenue and anticipate increasing FX earnings.
Significantly stronger naira now will slash FG naira revenue from customs duties and oil revenue. If anything, they'd prefer stability because a volatile rate is bad reputation.

Do you think its possible for the government to make naira appreciate against the dollar? Or its just a deliberate act to make it useless for personal reasons known to them.
Honestly, I don't think it'll be simple for the government to make the naira appreciate against the dollar sustainably** at this point unless we ramp up oil production or increase non-oil exports somehow. Also, with potential increase in wage bill from a new minimum wage, I believe they'd prefer to have a weaker naira to meet increasing naira expenditures even it'll probably mean eroded wages in terms of value.

Alright. Just thought to share something I just saw in a RAV4 Group. They call it charcoal canister. I guess it's the Evap chamber and supposedly improves gas mileage significantly when it's replaced in vehicles with bad ones.
