emmysoftyou:
Give jonathan the last chance,allow buhari to rest,
It s unfair when yu guys re seeing buhari as a messiah of light and jonathan as a messenger of darkness..
It s really unfair....

if ur father is a farmer at the age of 72/74..yu should allow him to rest and get someone younger than him to do the job than hoping that yur father is still strong for the job...

My fellow nairalanders, I know yu want change but frankly speaking,Buhari is not what we want now,
Assuming it happen 4years ago.then fine,

But now,I don't think so,he only wants to make name as head of state and as a civilian president of nigeria....
Buhari cannot be trusted,he once said he has resigned frm politics and once said he will make nigeria ungoverable,though he utter it due to he was angry bitterly..
But we need someone who can controls his anger and focus onthe problems surrounding nigeria as a country..
Buhari will cause a lot of damage if elected as a president,
He s hot-temper
He s a disaster
He an angry man
He look wild
He has a lot of revenge in his hart...
All dis I have found in his human nature...

GEJ till God knows when...

Dear Friend, I will pray for you for you are lost.

lf one really wants to scrutinise all religions, l would be an athiest. l question some things in lslam too and the person l asked couldnt give me satisfactory answer..
Chritianity wouldnt even withstand a fraction of my scrutiny. lts seems like a joke. You can lmagine the comedy someone wrote about satan corrupting himself yet he was created pure with no evil able to enter the heaven to corrupt them. l wouldnt even bother replying such person. Next thing is you cant understand it and need holy spirit to understand it and to think lslam shares some story witth bible.
lf one one to say if there is a fault in logic in a part then the rest is null then one would be an atheist.
Atheism is a product of intellectual laziness contrary to the believe of being sophisticated or free thinkers. Only a lower animal without ability for deep introspection would say something came to being from nothing simply because they dont agree with the view of organised religion.
Nothing beats the mode of worshipping my creator like in lslam. l have absolutely no doubt that our primary purpose of existense is to worship the creator and even though l dont agree with some things in the Quran, l know the prophet genuinely fear the creator also so he brought the religion with the best of intentions.
You wont get any reasonable answers here same with many other questions but you need a platform to worship your creator. No perfect religion if one wants to be blunt atleast you wont find any that can fully satisfy human logic. lslam satisfies mode of worshipping my creator completely as observed in salat/ praying form in mosques. A translation of all the things said during all the various postures of postrations says it all.

Well said.

tiergodson:
Lil, you are very correct. However, it is an important question because it is core to our Christian faith. I know it's a question nobody can answer but it does throw a shadow of doubt to the story of the origin of sin as we know it.

These are matters beyond the understanding of any man so rather than focus on them and let them distract us, lets focus on the message of Christianity; the core of our faith which can be summed up in one word: love.

Christianity Etc › Re: The Evil Spirit That Corrupted Lucifer (satan's) Mind; Where Did It Come From? by saymalcolm(m): 10:04am On Dec 21, 2014

Lol.

Interesting thread with a lot of questions that have no logical answers.

The mistake we make as humans is applying the way we think to heavenly matters where it doesn't apply.

Granted, Christianity is filled with a lot of mysteries we will never understand so I think its best we leave it. As humans, our understanding will always be limited.

The important thing is to strive as much as possible to be blameless in life, love your fellow man. Arguments such as these are like the argument of the chicken and the egg: it never ends.

Lolz... Ours is very different...

We don't sit on the floor...
We don't preach (or whatever they do) in Arabic or Hebrews... It's purely English.
We don't sing that their funny songs...etc.

Meanwhile in Catholic... You recite a 30min or 1 hour incantations. (Just like the Buddhist are doing )

You wear white robes and coloured turbans,Just like the ones I used to see in Naija occultic movies...

You have portraits of St Mary...St.Peter...St.Simon St lSamson etc all over the places (Just like you'll find that of Buddha's in a Buddhist temple )

You said your prayers while fiddling with the rosary...

Let me stop here...

Now whose doctrines looks more occultic here?

Hope you understand that the language of christianity is not even English. Jesus brought the gospel to men in Aramaic and as a result of the spread of the gospel, it was translated. Your argument based on language is moot.

Politics › Re: There Is Little Evidence Buhari Can Fix Nigeria - BBC Will Ross by saymalcolm(m): 7:25am On Dec 12, 2014

mikeansy:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-30429366

Former military leader Muhammadu Buhari is set to contest Nigeria's presidential election after winning a primary for the opposition APC.

He will challenge President Goodluck Jonathan - a repeat of the 2011 poll.

The elections in February look to be the closest fought since the end of military rule in 1999.

The 71-year-old former general, a Muslim from the north, seized power in 1983 but was himself deposed in a coup less than two years later.

He was up against four other candidates in the vote at the All Progressives Congress (APC) party convention in Lagos.

In the previous election, Mr Jonathan defeated Mr Buhari, with almost 59% of the vote against 32%, sparking widespread unrest in northern areas which backed Mr Buhari.

More than 500 people were killed and thousands of people were forced from their homes.

Analysis: Will Ross, BBC News, Lagos
The governing People's Democratic Party (PDP) has gone for continuity with President Goodluck Jonathan and the current Vice President, Namadi Sambo as his running mate.

The APC's chosen candidate, Muhammadu Buhari, says the last thing Nigeria needs right now is continuity and he is promising to tackle the country's insecurity, corruption and economic worries.

The former military ruler has been out of power for close to 30 years and although popular, especially in northern Nigeria, there is little evidence to prove he has what it takes to fix the country .

THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT JONATHAN DOESN'T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO FIX THE COUNTRY. He can only make it worse and we've have enough of worse.

This is clear arrant nansense and condiment biko

Whether he looks guilty is not the issue. The issue remains was he found guilty by a court of competent jurisdiction? No. The standard under our criminal justice system favours the presumption of innocence on an accused person until a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges him guilty. Till then, he's innocent and an innocent person can sue for an abuse on his fundamental human rights.

Duncan Mighty introduced his girlfriend Vivien on instagram earlier this evening. They started dating 2 years ago and today is her birthday.

I think the couple are likely to get married, because: (1) according to Duncan, Vivien is his mother's "bestie". (2) Vivien's family is currently meeting with Duncan's family in the Hotel Presidential Chinese restaurant (they started at 5pm). If so, that makes Vivien Duncan's fiancee.

I mean i understand ladies bleaching their skin, though i don't support it. I know some ladies feel that some guys in the environment the reside prefer light skinned girls, so they go and bleach to be among the chosen, all in an attempt to get husband. Yes it is the men that choose the wife so, the women can use any possible means to get chosen by men searching for wife.

It is the men that pay the bride price, so why then will a guy bleach? is it for the ladies to choose and marry him or what? I just find it hard to understand.

Please men on NL who bleach or know guys that bleach, please let us know the reason for this thanks.

Guys and girls who bleach all bleach for the same reason; low self esteem.

People have failed to realize that Nigeria's win of the African Cup of Nations was nothing other than pure luck. Keshi is no coaching genius and the worst part is that we do not have a team. You can build on success but you can't build on luck.

yinkard4me:
First of all NFF should sack Keshi with immediate effect and replace him with someone that can handle the team better.Keshi is a good coach no doubt but he is very stubborn and too sentimental towards his players and he
has darely paid for it.
NOW:
* S/Africa - 7 pts
* Congo - 6 pts
* Sudan - 3 pts
* Nigeria - 1 pts
If South Africa shuld beat Congo on wed in their home, they will hv 10 pts and Congo will remain with 6 pts.
A draw will see them be on 8 pts and 7 pts respectively, Congo beating South Africa which is not likely to happen.
Nigeria will beat Sudan with another coach, (Not Keshi) And they will be on 4 pts and Sudan will remain on 3pts and hopefully a draw or loss not definitely going to happen again, Anyway thats our prayer sha!
Then our next match will be away to play Congo. Lets assume Congo loses or plays a draw against S/Africa. Then they will still be on 6pts or 7pts and Nigeria on 4pts.For us to beat them, the interim coach shuld call back players like Martins, Ike Uche, Sunday Mba, Ogbeche, Bright Dike if possible bring bck all our best legs.
Believe me we re going to trash Congo, then we will hv 7pts with good goal difference.Authomatically we would be second on the table. S/Africa and Sudan result is not our concern anymore, The same good players we gonna use to defeat Congo, we re going to use them again against S/Africa here in Nigeria as well. If we eventually beat S/Africa
which i know is very possible with our strong attack and history against them, then we will hv 10 pts. We'll be second on the log with 10 pts behind S/Africa and we would hv qualified.
But first we need to pray for S/Africa to beat Congo on wed for us to have a chance.

Permutations and more permutations! Why do we just love complications in this country? This is what we do every time it comes to the Super Eagles: building castles on thin air. Why does our progression in competitions have to depend on the failure of others? That is the hallmark of mediocrity.

Marriage is partnership but our faith and custom confers the status of head of the home on the man. I don't subcribe to a earning wife keeping her money aside because the man is the "head of the home". No partnership works like that. Maybe in the old days, it did but times have changed. Both parties must do whatever it takes to run the home successfully.

Likewise, the husband should never leave all the house chores for the wife because he is the "head of home" or take decisions without consulting her especially when such decision affects her. That is not leadership of love but tyranny. Two heads are always better than one. Even if the wife is not working and a full stay-at-home wife, she must have a say for the husband to consider fairly, achieve a workable compromise before making the final decision.

Any couple able to find this balance have a whole lot less to worry about.

A woman who refuses to share in the family expenditure is greedy and any man who takes advantage of a wife who shares in the expenditure is a lazy bum.

Literature › The Love Letter On 54 by saymalcolm(op): 2:39pm On Oct 02, 2014

Dear Nigeria,

54 years ago you were born the gifted child of unwilling parents; midwifed by colonial imperialists. Your birth was heralded by so much fanfare. Even though you were born on no manger, you were touted to be the messiah of the African race.

The DNA of greatness in you has always been as conspicuous like the shimmering light on a dark continent. It was the envy of our brother countries and a threat to the colonial imperialists who reluctantly bade us farewell.

How is it then that 54 years later, the talk is still on about that DNA of greatness yet to harnessed; that potential yet to be maximized?

Independence is a word used loosely on every anniversary of yours and it saddens me for all year round, we are stunned with glaring evidence that slavery yet abounds.

You are likened to the gifted child nurtured for greatness by well-meaning parents but derailed by the greed of your extended family who have refused to let you be who you are meant to be. The golden eggs you lay has become the cause for your incarceration.

These extended relatives, stakeholders, cabal and the like have employed all manner of uncouth tactics to keep you from being what you should be; from where you should be. They have sold you off to foreign interests in order to continue to luxuriate in the wealth of your sweat and blood.

Still I believe in you; I believe in what you can and should be. I believe that someday, you will take up that exalted seat that has been prepared and reserved for you from time immemorial.

Your past and present betrays hope for the future to the disillusioned eye but something stronger exists deep within you; an unignited spark of brilliance that came to bear when we were plagued with the threat of a devastating epidemic of dubious origins. In that moment of danger, the slumbering strength of your spirit came alive to the chagrin of your detractors.

You have experienced trying times and still will dear Nigeria but by the sheer will of that DNA of greatness in you, you have remained firm and resolute to survive. You have continued to show promise in the dream of a greater tomorrow.

Your past may be tainted with the blood and tears of the innocents but that untapped potential is always a reason for us to believe. I know we cannot change your past, but as the river keeps flowing, you must keep moving knowing that every river has a destination.

I love you Nigeria and I always will.

Happy birthday.

Yours sincerely,

The people called by your name.
