Waiting for the vultures to descend on this thread..

yes ooo, no wonder dey dn't ve void votes in dt state during d last presidential election.

PDP rigging both internally and externally since 1999. Thk God rigging is now an offence.

THE police have invited a two- term member of the House of Representatives, Honourable Patrick Asadu, over alleged forgery of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, primary election result sheet.
According to the warrant of arrest issued by the police in Enugu, Asadu, who represents Nsukka/Igboeze South Federal Constituency in the House, was alleged to have forged the PDP result sheet for the primary conducted by the party to elect its candidate in December 2014.
The warrant of arrest would enable the lawmaker appear and convince a judge of the Federal High Court that he was the rightful winner of the PDP primary.
The action of the police was in response to the allegation levelled against Asadu by Dr. Ikechukwu Ugwuegede that he forged the House of Representatives primary election result and altered same.
According to documents made available to journalists in Abuja yesterday, two different primary election result sheets bearing the same serial number, but returning different persons as the winner were showed.

k, ol is well

I dn't know wat dey ve been trying to promote on nairaland recently, bt to my own knowledge, nairaland is nw creating more hatred, more division and more disunity among Nigerians xpclly btw Yoruba and Igbo. If not so, hw can a tribal bigot and a partisan soul lyk Afam4eva still remain a Mod with ol his insults, ol his condemning post against oda tribes. It's rily pathetic and needs an urgent attention.

..

Athanatos:
So banking on it means calling Igbos names?


You're more mature than this na!


I'm Igbo and this is good news...I don't see anything in it that would cut my life short.


So what are you saying?


Its good that a Nigerian language is being propagated elsewhere.

Even us Igbos have our brothers in Trinidad and Tobago.


Ghanaians have ties with Jamaica.

Its nothing new please,stop making stratospheres out of molehills.

My 2 kobo.

though, m a Yoruba guy, but gotta say it. Ua d most mature dude I've seen on dis topic. kip it up

Luvly post with a lot of awesome picture.

Let us do a brief review of the contribution of Islam to civilization as we know it.

Trigonometry, Sine, Tangent, Co-Tangent

The Arabs developed these functions in trigonometry and Ibn Moosaa's work Hisaab-Al Jab-Wal Muqaabala (The Calculation of Integration and Equation) presented 800 examples in the 8th century CE. His work was translated from Arabic into Latin and until the 16th century CE, it was Europe's main textbook on the subject. 

Algebra and Geometry

Muhammad bin Moosaa Al-Khawaarizmi is considered to be one of the founders of Algebra. The word ‘Algorithm’ or 'Algorizm' is a corruption of his name or the name of the town Khwaarizm (Kheva), in what is now Uzbekistan, where he was born. He adopted the use of ‘cipher’ (zero), that was devised in India some centuries earlier, a numeral of fundamental importance, leading up to the so-called arithmetic of positions and the decimal system. The very word ‘zero’ is a derivative of the Arabic ‘sifr’ or ‘cipher’. His pioneering work on the system of numerals is well known as "Algorithm," or "Algorizm." In addition to introducing the Arabic numerals, he developed several arithmetical procedures, including operations on fractions.

Another great mathematician was Omar Khayyaam, who offered to the world geometric and algebraic solutions of the second degree. Naseeruddeen wrote the treatise on quadrilateral trigonometry, as well as plain and spherical geometry.

Physics and Chemistry

Kamaaluddeen examined the refraction of sunlight in raindrops and offered an explanation of the genesis of primary and secondary rainbows. The story of the invention of the pendulum and the presentation of a water clock to Emperor Charlemagne by Haaroon Ar-Rasheed is well known.

The great historian Gibbons wrote in his Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (Volume 5) that the science of chemistry owes its origin and improvements to the Muslims.

Science of Mechanics

The development of the science of mechanics in Islam is an act of genius. Moosaa bin Shaakir described one hundred pieces of mechanical equipment in his book of artifices. Other outstanding Muslim treatises included Al Kitaab Fi Ma`rifat Al-Hiya Al-Handasiyyah (The Book of the Knowledge of Ingenious Geometrical Contrivances) by Abul Fiaz bin Al Raz and Al Kitaab Meezanal-Hikmah (The Book of Balance and Wisdom) by Al-Khazini. He also did work on accurate weighing, and determination of the specific gravity of substances.

Camera Obscura

In the field of optics, Camera Obscura was invented by Ibn Haytham in 1038 CE.

Theory of Relativity

Qaadhi Abu Bakr had developed the theory of relativity in the 8th century CE in terms of time and space by means of mathematical equations and astrophysics. Imagine, Einstein was not even born in the Western world, who propounded the same theory of relativity much later in the 20th century CE.

Geography

As far as geography was concerned, Muslim scientists established that the world was round in the 9th century CE, and the first map of the globe was made during the Caliphate of Ma’moon.

Paper Making

This was one of the earliest skills attained by the Muslims. As early as the 8th century CE, high quality paper was being manufactured in Samarqand. Egypt was known to have its first paper mill in the year 900 CE. The earliest Arabic manuscript written on paper that has been discovered is the Ghareeb Al Hadeeth by Abu ‘Ubayed, dated 837 CE. It can be seen in Holland preserved in the library at the University of Leyden.

Advances in Industry

Under Islamic rule, Spain was an industrial center. It was one of the wealthiest and most thickly populated of the European countries. Muslims were leading in weaving wool, producing silk, pottery, jewelry, leather and perfume industry. In the Middle Ages, world trade was commanded by Muslims and Baghdad Bukhaara and Samarqand remained centers for world fairs until the 16th century CE. The Bayt Al-Hikmah at Cairo contained two million books, the library at Tripoli contained some three million, but this library was burned down by the Christians during the first Crusade.

Jazakallah khayran, my rily enjoying and fllg u with ol my heart. Also, in the field of medicine, the first surgery, hw to restructure breaking bone and d embalming of dead body was firstly carried out by Muslims in olden day Egypt.

eshbeewanna:
Encyclopedia Britanica says that the Alexandrian Library had, in fact, been destroyed much earlier, in the fourth century A.D, long before the advent of Islam: "The library survived the disintegration of Alexander’s empire (first century BC) and continued to exist under Roman rule until the third century AD."3 The truth is that one half of this library was burnt by Julius Caesar in 47 BC. In the third century, Alexandria came under the domination of Christians. At another place the same work states that, "The main museum and library were destroyed during the civil war of the third century AD and a subsidiary library was burned by Christians in AD 391."4

Phillip K Hitti states that the story "is one of those tales that make good fiction but bad history." He goes on, "the great Ptolemic library was burnt as early as 48 BC by Julius Ceasar. A later one, referred to as the daughter library, was destroyed about AD 389 as a result of an edict by the Emperor Theodosius. At the time of the Arab conquest, therefore, no library of importance existed in Alexandria and no contemporary writer ever brought the charge about Amr or Umar.

Thks for d detailed explanation

Papist:
The great library of Alexandria was a Christian library which was destroyed by the muslims when they were invading Egypt.

U must be kidding me, Muslim invading Egypt and destroy Alexandria library. go and re chk ur history Bro

asadike:
thk u my brother, tell them. How can we even compare the two religion? How do we compare light with darkness. Who doesn't know that wayo man mohammed, what atroocities did we not see in him. Rape? He is there, incest nko? He be baba. What of murder? He gat award there. Demon worshipping? Mohammed took d first position. Look at d kind of thread that seun placed on front page? If not for christian missionaries, will these internet Muslims have d opportunity to go to schools and hospitals? Even d demon allah is far below christ. Almost all d good things we enjoy today comes from christianity. What has Islam given to d world? Imagine the world without christ, then imagine d world without allaha, and tell me your findings.

Lolzz! it's either ua kid or short-sighted, Wat has Islam given to d world or wat d hell did u asked. Ve u hrd abt d contributions of Islam to d world of medicine, mathematics , civilization ,industrialization and even education. Google abt d Egyptian civilization, Alexandria d grt and maybe d first and d oldest university in d whole world. With ol d thrashes u wrote above without any evidence to back it up. I cn concluded dt u've been highly brainwashed, nxt tym if Somone tell u something try to carry out ur own research b4 u'll be displaying ur stupidity outside.

BERNIMOORE:
have you accepted the fact that quaran was a problem even instruction muslims like shekau to kill fellow hypocrites muslims?

I dont believe that jesus is God almighty, but a servant and seperate person that God loves and adopted as his son just the way i can claim my brothers son as mine

as for marriage issue, create a thread on that and lets get foccused on this issue that

[size=14pt]Bible never instruct anyone like quaran to SLAY[/size]

dis is wat I hate abt u pple, I asked u a simple and straight question and ua beatin around d bush and besides u didn't ansa any of my questions. Use ur brain, think critically, God was not born and he didn't born neither did he had an adopted child. So, Jesus was neither a God or son of a God. He's a servant and messenger of God jst like Adam, Moses, Muhammad e.t.c sent to convey his msgs to d Israelites , d Jews nt even d whole world. U said dt Islam preaches violence bt u blindly turned ur eyes to ol d Bible quotes above by d OP or did Jesus said dt Moses was nt a servant of God or claimed dt Old testament is false or not part of Bible or world of God again. Nobody cn force u to d way, it's ur choice. Trying to do more real research, stop copying devilish Quranic quote frm Internet. I cn bet it, u no nothing abt d Quran and u cn't read it if u see one nt to tok of translate it.

BERNIMOORE:
knowledge that you cannot explain by yourself? i dont expect you to accept easily that you are defeated, but you can see that all the bible verses you brought i have honestly treated them while you ran away from the quaran verses, you chose to follow this verse in quaran that tickle your ears towards the truth;


Quran (25:52) - "Therefore listen not to the Unbelievers, but strive against them with the utmost strenuousness... muslim are the cancer we have on earth today because of the wickedness instructed to all of them, you fail to show me where jesus directs christians to slay,shamelessly you brought luke 19:27 but then going through the luke 19:27 Jesus was Not ''the certain noble man in his own analogy/story/parable who ask rebelious servants slayed''
Luke 19 V 11- 27 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+19&version=NKJV

that cannot be said of the wickedness commanded to muslims in quaran which has no limit;

[size=14pt]muslim to slain fellow muslim in the name of 'hypocrite muslims' Al-shaabab and Boko Haram justified killing fellow muslims[/size]


Quran (2:216) - "Fighting is prescribed for you(muslim), and ye(muslim hypocryte) dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not

Quran (33:60-62) - "If the hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease, and the alarmists in the city do not cease, We verily shall urge thee(real muslims) on against them(hypocryte muslims), then they will be your neighbors in it but a little while. Accursed, they will be seized wherever found and slain with a (fierce) slaughter."

we are not surprised by throath slitting engaged recently by boko haram, quaran commanded that to fellow muslim who is deemed hypocryte

there is God ooo

I gat som questions for u, I want u to give me a verse Whr Jesus said dt he proclaimed himself as god or call himself god in d Bible and where he said dt we cn worship him?
Secondly, give me a verse Whr Jesus or God ordered dt we can't marry more dan one wife in d Bible . Any oda xtian can ep him out

Op a big kudos to u, thumb up. m rilly enjyin d show, Wat i can say here is dt most of Nigeria xtians are lazy, most of dem only read Bible on Sunday probably only d verses dt dere pastors quotes and dey only blv Wat dere pastors told dem or copy som trash frm net dt were put dere by infidels lyk dem jst to discourage and blemish Islam . Ve dey eva asked themselves why more pple in d western world re embracing and converting to Islam everyday, simply because dey re more adventurous, lukin for d true religion, d true god, more research minded and dey re ready to listen, learn and think unlike d brainwashed xtian here in Nigeria who can't think on dere own.
I cn proudly say it dt no nigeria pastor, bishop or prophet cn participate in a comparative lecture,. even ol of dem 2geda cn't face zakir naik alone nt to mention oda comparative lecturers. Any xtian dt's ready to learn abt Christianity and Islam and dere comparisons, I'll gladly be of help to share som links and i knows dt Alot of brother here cn also do dt. Salam alaekum

esther1994:
Yes He was and He is still God, because He is the son of God; even from the beggining of creation. Read Genesis 1v26 when God said: Let us make man in our image, who do you think He was talking to? Also read John 1v1-13.

Wen he said dt our images, he was refferin to d first human being and dt's prophet Adam (PBUH), not Jesus Christ, alwys get ur fact rit and stop misquoting god.

HzRF:
Most of u just decided to feign stupidity
U are not d first to say this trash about me stating PDP will win Osun
Show me where I said PDP will win Osun state
I said PDP won't get less than 30%
Bro quit d rubbish

I wud love to reply and argue with u bt u didn't worth it

icedbreez:
Mr Man, how many former Presidents and looters in Chief of Nigeria from Abacha to IBB to Abdulsalami to OBJ have you ever probed before that it's President Jonathan you want to start with. I dare you to try it and see what will become of your Niger Area.
He hired Suleman so why can't he fire him if he so wish, at least until May 29th.

dey dere, dey mek mouth , u pple re jst loud mouthed without any action. Cn u recall dt ur pple said dt if GEJ didn't win 2015 election, Nigeria will seize to exist, he has lost and notin has happened. If Buhari decide to probe him tmrw, I promise u notin will happen, Nigeria is bigger dan ur creeks and ur likes. Stop thinking dt Nigeria started frm ur area and ended in area again. Bunch of loquacious pple

Acidosis:
Good development


I trust Ondo and Ekiti people; who say im mama no go sleep, im self no go see eye take sleep




Ekiti and Ondo will never be controlled by Tinubu & Lia Mohammed.

Au done? cn u recall dt b4 Mimiko become d govt, during his tribunal days. He was a closed associate of tinubu den and he might ve nt bcom a gov if nt with d support of dt tinubu u mentioned., but Wen he became d governor, he taught he cn become his own boss. Write it down tdy, by 2017 , ondo state will bcom an APC state and Mimiko is gonna eat his vommit again.

OP thumb up, Ua totally right Xpecially pertaining to dt crime aspect. The rate of dere desperation for success at ol cost is too alarming and dey are also influencing our own pple directly or indirectly. Personally for me if i've d power, I'll give this pple d biafra dey want tdy. They are only constituting more nuisance to our environment. My plea to d incoming lag state governor Akinwumi Ambode, pls dis is d rit mmnt to giv dis pple more deportation. Nobody to save dere criminal ash in d nxt govt.Gej, dere hero is now a gonner. I spent 4 yrs in d north, seeing more dan enoff Yoruba's in d north xpclly in Zaria, olmst ol d tradewomen in dere market are Yoruba bt dey re business minded and peaceful pple dt cn neva oppress dere host unlike d arrogant, tribalist, bigot Igbo pple. U cn crucify me , abuse me bt it doesn't change my view abt igbos
