RomanceRe: Why Men Of Nowadays Don't Want To Get Married. by ShoeGetSize: 8:23pm On Oct 23, 2023
Actually it is a misconception that there are more women than men. The reverse is actually the case. In Nigeria there are more men than women.


Gafferde:
Women are surplus but ready men are scarce.

More men keep running away from relationships and marriages because of financial responsibilities and obligations. Many of them are waiting to make money, and afterwards pick any woman they like. You can't blame them.

Call them weak men. Call them insecure men. It doesn't and will never change the fact that society measures the seriousness of a suitor by his financial readiness and capability.

If you're a woman and you're already married or in a committed relationship, you don't know how blessed you are. You are really blessed. Be grateful to that man. Be grateful everyday for finding love. It's very difficult to experience real love from a man whom other women rejected because he was not financially up to standard.

Your marriage or relationship may be rocky at the moment, but always thank your creator for bringing him to you. Be grateful that he still loves you and he still sticks around.

Fight for what you both have and share. Protect your man and your intimacy. Pray for your man.

BusinessRe: Elon Musk Offers $ 1 Billion Donation To Wikipedia If They Agree To Do This by ShoeGetSize(op):

BusinessElon Musk Offers $ 1 Billion Donation To Wikipedia If They Agree To Do This by ShoeGetSize(op): 4:39pm On Oct 23, 2023
In a recent turn of events that has left the world in a state of bemusement, Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has proposed a $1 billion donation to Wikipedia. However, this philanthropic gesture comes with an eccentric caveat - the beneficiary must change its name to 'Dickipedia' for no less than a year.

Notorious for his unconventional approaches and unpredictable actions, Musk has once more stirred the pot. His offer of a billion dollars, an amount that could revolutionize the online encyclopedia, is contingent upon Wikipedia's acceptance of a name change. A proposition that has sparked a spectrum of reactions, ranging from cynical skepticism to desperate pleas for the acceptance of the peculiar condition.

While some users have encouraged Wikipedia to seize the opportunity and revert to its original name after the stipulated period, others have criticized Musk for leveraging his wealth to impose his whims. Responding to the public's response, Musk retorted, 'One year minimum. I mean, I'm not a fool lol.'

This isn't the first time Musk has crossed swords with Wikipedia. The billionaire was previously denounced by Wikipedia's co-founder, Jimmy Wales, for allegedly censoring critics of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Musk was accused of failing to uphold free speech when he complied with Turkey's demands to restrict content. Musk, in turn, questioned the financial transparency of the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that operates Wikipedia.

Musk's conditional offer opens a Pandora's box of questions on the influence of wealth on non-profit organizations. His willingness to donate only if the institution bows to his demands highlights the existing power dynamics between wealthy individuals and the organizations they support. The question remains whether Wikipedia will accept Musk's offer and what implications such an act would hold for the organization.

The eccentric billionaire's clash with Wikipedia underscores the ongoing tension between tech moguls and media platforms. Musk's recent acquisition and renaming of Twitter to 'X' has provided him with a platform to propagate his ideas. However, his tendency to restrict content and challenge established entities like Wikipedia has drawn criticism from advocates of free speech and transparency.

Above all, Musk's unconventional offer has sparked a broader discourse on the role of non-profit organizations, the influence of billionaires and the sanctity of transparency and freedom of speech. As we stand at this crossroads, the world watches with bated breath to see the path Wikipedia will choose and the implications it will bear on the future of non-profit organizations.

PoliticsHundeyin: Nobody Else Commits Themselves To Delusion The Way APC Supporters Do by ShoeGetSize(op): 2:57pm On Oct 20, 2023
One thing you have to almost pity about the APC people is how genuinely and wholeheartedly they commit to their delusions. They really commit to the character

First, it was "Tinubu never had a drug trafficking case, and David Hundeyin is a fake news merchant fooling his gullible followers."

Then it was "Tinubu never forfeited $460,000 in proceeds of heroin sales to the US government, and David Hundeyin is a fake news merchant fooling his gullible audience."

Then it was "Nobody ever obtained any documents under subpoena from Deloitte and Chicago State University showing that Tinubu lied about his background. David Hundeyin used Photoshop to cook up fake evidence to fool his gullible audience."

Then it was "Tinubu does not have Guinean citizenship. David Hundeyin photoshopped a fake Guinean passport data page to fool his gullible followers."

Then it was "Tinubu's Guinean passport is a diplomatic passport which means that he is not a Guinean citizen because 2+2= Ekpang Nkukwo. David Hundeyin is a fake news merchant and Omo Àlè who is misleading his gullible followers."

Then it was "Tinubu's Guinean passport expired in 2020, so he is no longer a Guinean citizen. David Hundeyin is a fake news merchant and Omo Àlè who is misleading his gullible followers."

Then it was "Atiku is wasting his time in court seeking to get CSU to release its records on Tinubu. He is being misled by David Hundeyin, the fake news merchant, and Omo Àlè who is misleading his gullible followers."

Then it was "CSU will never release those records to Atiku because according to what I picked up off ChatGPT, 2+2= Ekpang Nkukwo. David Hundeyin is a fake news merchant and Omo Àlè who is misleading his gullible followers."

Then it was "Tinubu didn't commit forgery because he is allowed to design his own certificate according to his specification. You can "Goggu eet." Also, David Hundeyin is a fake news merchant and Omo Àlè who is misleading his gullible followers."

Then it was "David Hundeyin lied about the (publicly accessible) FOIA lawsuit where the FBI, DEA, IRS, State Dept, etc. agreed to disclose their files on Tinubu. There is no such lawsuit, and David Hundeyin is a fake news merchant who is misleading his gullible followers."

Then it was "The US government will never hand over information on Tinubu to anyone because 2+2 = Ekpang Nkukwo. David Hundeyin is wasting his time, and he is a fake news merchant and Omo Àlè who is misleading his gullible followers."

Now that the files are on the brink of coming out and Tinubu's lawyer is openly trying to interfere with the case, it's gone back to "There is no FOIA lawsuit and David Hundeyin is a fake news merchant and Omo Àlè who is misleading his gullible followers."

And the truly amazing thing is that they believe it every time. A contradiction does not exist inside an APC head because to these half-men, everything and anything is, or can be true at the same time. Anything their bosses tell them to deploy as a narrative, they not only deploy, but they fully believe it as well.

If it weren't so contemptible, you'd almost be impressed at how a group of men born of women have been converted into internet wildebeest devoid of any meaningful sentience, reason, and rationality.

Foreign AffairsArabs Chop Off The Feet Of African Migrants To Stop Them Getting To Europe by ShoeGetSize(op): 5:35am On Oct 14, 2023
A Cameroonian migrant, Alphonse Atibonkive, went to an Algerian hospital for treatment, woke up and realised the hospital’s doctors had amputated his feet.

He said the doctors cut off his feet to stop him from migrating through their country to Europe, where he was heading for greener pastures.

They told him they didn’t want blacks at the hospital when he arrived there for treatment.

Alphonse Atibonkiveb told Channel 4 News that the Algerian border police beat him and other Cameroonian migrants.

Twenty-five members of his migration team died in the bush where Algerian border guards left them, after they were repelled from Tunisia.

“When they arrested we straightened our feet and they beat the soles. That is why my feet were swollen,” Atibonkive tol Channel 4 News.

When I was taken back to El Menia for treatment, the doctors asked me why I came back, saying they had restricted all blacks from visiting the place.

“I told them I was not there to stay permanently, but that I was just passing by.


“They said they would do something that would make me never to return to Algeria so they cut off my legs,” he said.

A video Channel 4 News released on Tuesday shows Alphonse’s two feet bandaged after they were chopped off to ankle level.

He also had strange scars on his thighs, which he said resulted from “unnecessary operations” conducted at the El Menia hospital.

Deadly Migration Route

Thousands of sub-Saharan Africans seek passage through Libya, Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria yearly to Europe.

They are running away from conflict, poverty, persecution and harsh economic conditions. But the journey has often been very tough and deadly.

This year, over 2,384 migrants have died or gone missing in the Mediterranean sea while struggling to reach Europe, the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) reported.

Aside from the turbulent Mediterranean waters, migrants sometimes face death and inhumane treatment from the governments of North African nations.

Countries like Algeria have a long history of maltreating black migrants.


In 2013, 92 sub-Saharan migrants were found dead in the desert between Algeria and Niger.

According to World Organisation against Torture (OMCT), Algeria expulsed more than 7,000 migrants between March and April this year.

“These migrants are subject to torture and ill-treatment. They are arbitrarily arrested and detained with no procedural guarantees,” OMCT said.

“Migrants are transported to the border, where they are abandoned without food or water in extreme weather conditions. During detention and transportation, security forces seize documents and belongings and physically and sexually abuse migrants,” the organisation added.

This is a counter to the thread above

Now before i say anything else, let me say this, only someone that is happy with the current state of ethnic disunity is this country would be advocating for parents to keep enforcing our local languages on future generations. Basically What you are saying is that we should keep transfering hate and division to our children. If we truely want this country to succeed, our local languages should be scrapped

Now, the only thing our local languages are good at is breeding ethnic disunity. I know i might get under alot of fire for this but this is the truth.

I saw alot of very ignorant people in that thread who claim to be educated, saying that countries like china, Russia, Japan, e.t.c, all speak their native languages, and are doing well.. Now listen, have you ever heard of the word "homogeneous" before? if you haven't, go and search for the meaning. Those countries are homogeneous countries, and they speak ONE language. They don't have or practice 371 different languages in a single country. Most of these countries are equally as ethically divers as Nigeria, but they don't practice their different ethnic languages, what they have is ONE language for the sake of unity. So stop comparing these countries to Nigeria and using as a basis for arguing why we should teach our children our local languages.

Kseeker:
A video showing ultra-Orthodox Jews allegedly spitting towards Christian worshippers in Jerusalem has sparked widespread condemnation it was posted on the social media site X, formerly Twitter, on Monday.

The video, taken in the old city of Jerusalem, shows a number of ultra-Orthodox Jews, including children, spit at a group of Christian worshipers as they exited a church carrying a cross.

The video has drawn widespread condemnation from Israeli officials, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who said that he "strongly condemn[s] any attempt to intimidate worshippers" and that "derogatory conduct towards worshipers is sacrilege and is simply unacceptable."His comments were echoed by a number of other officials including foreign minister Eli Cohen, who stated that the act "does not represent Jewish values."

However, one prominent far-right settler, Elisha Yered, remarked that the act of spitting on churches and towards Christians is permitted in the Jewish faith, calling the act "an ancient Jewish custom."

He added that "perhaps under the influence of Western culture we have forgotten what Christianity is, but I think the millions of Jews who have experienced the Crusades, the [Spanish] Inquisition, blood libel, and mass pogroms will never forget."

Yered, the former adviser to Israeli MK Limor Son Har-Melech of the far-right Otzama Yehudit party, was arrested in August as a suspect in the murder of Palestinian teenager Qusai Mu'tan in the West Bank village of Burqa.The incident is the latest in a series of attacks against Christians that have occurred since the start of the year. Such attacks have seen extremist Jews spit at priests and vandalise Churches and cemeteries.

Such incidents have led to fierce criticism of Israel's current far-right government, which has been blamed for not doing enough to stop the incidents.

The government has also been blamed for emboldening Jewish extremism in Israel. Once such instance includes the actions of Elisha Yered in August being praised by Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.
Foreign AffairsGlobal Oil Prices Surge After Hamas Attempted Invasion Of Israel by ShoeGetSize(op): 12:44pm On Oct 09, 2023
Concerns over ongoing violence impacting neighbouring countries saw Brent crude rise by about 4% over the weekend, stopping short of climbing to $89 on Monday morning.

Hamas's surprise assault on Israel on Saturday was the biggest escalation between the two sides for decades.

As usual when a war breaks out, the markets reacted instantly.

International relations play an important part in this, given each country’s support for either the Israeli or Palestinian side, with some trying to navigate on a more neutral ground.

Israel is a small oil producer, and although its production coming to a halt would impact the market, it wouldn’t greatly disturb it.

On the other hand, Iran’s oil production would. The Wall Street Journal reports that Iranian authorities helped plan the attacks perpetrated by Hamas.

Earlier in October, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei warned against the normalisation of the relations with Israel, saying that any Muslim country doing so was “betting on a losing horse.”

A deal between Israel and Saudi Arabia was in the works, with the United States overseeing the talks.


The international community could decide to sanction Iran for its role in the recent escalation of the conflict, and its consequences on the region’s stability, further rising oil prices.

A potential expansion of violence to other countries would also negatively impact the market.
The business world’s eyes will be turned towards the Middle East this week, as stakeholders attempt to deduce the longer-term scenarios that will come out of the conflict.
