On the front page of Nairaland today Bandits Kills 30 , Sack 21 Villages In Kogi Community - Politics - Nairaland Then Gunmen Attack, Burn Down Police Station In Ondo Community If you read the article, they said Gunmen suspected to be bandits. I checked the meaning of bandits noun plural noun: bandits a robber or outlaw belonging to a gang and typically operating in an isolated or lawless area. Gunman a man who uses a gun to commit a crime or terrorist act. "a gang of masked gunmen" Are we in a lawless or isolated area? Isn't that a slap on the government? |

shortgun:Obesity, which is generally defined as having a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, occurs when a person carries excess body fat that can negatively affect overall health. Carrying extra weight increases the risk of serious medical conditions. For example, it can raise blood pressure and cholesterol levels, which increases the likelihood of heart disease and stroke. It also affects how the body uses insulin, making type 2 diabetes more likely. The added weight places extra stress on joints, particularly in the knees, hips, and spine, which can lead to pain and arthritis. In addition, fat around the neck can obstruct airways during sleep, causing sleep apnea and breathing difficulties. Obesity is also associated with a higher risk of certain cancers, including breast, colon, and kidney cancer. Other health concerns include fatty liver disease, gallstones, infertility, and mental health challenges such as anxiety or depression. Importantly, losing weight after being obese usually reduces many of these health risks, especially when done through a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and healthy lifestyle changes. Bags of bones Think again.

Sex without mutual effort isn’t intimacy, it’s labor, and labor without return naturally loses its appeal. Marriage exists to align effort, energy, and care and without it, sex often becomes empty labor and disappointment. People of today have decided to call marriage a scam, they do not have a mission, they are only interested in gbenshing for self pleasure. They say the wahala of marriage is too much but yet they are telling us the chase is not worth the effort. Maybe the real truth is this:The real truth is commit to something. Invest your energy where commitment exists, or expect emptiness.

How many times is man ungrateful to his maker that he doesn't say thank you? We hear, we see, we type, we can think, we talk, we can sit, jump, spit, sheet, piss, our brain works, our legs work, out fingers grow, they move, our eyelids protect our eyes even though some people remove it and redesign it for fashion, we don't give thanks to the master piece that was created. Another reason why all those people who were trying to sound moral on that guy that took his life make me laugh. We are very ungrateful people, yet God no de vex if we say nothing about the bounties that he gives us free of charge. Thank God man cannot manufacture air or we will pay to breathe. Now, if God wey make us de look us for our ungratefulness and some of us are taking our lives because we are tired, please what do you expect man to do if he could give us all the things our maker gave us? Before we breathe, we will have to say thank you for our next subscription. IfManBeGod When you are giving, know why you are doing what you are doing. What is your purpose for giving? Man will disappoint you but when you are focused on your mission you will learn to pay little attention to what man does to you and keep the ball moving. Stay focused. Thank you Lord.

Charly68:I don't want to talk about Obi but the abnormal has become the norm. The person who was produced by the political party should not be stronger than the party. The party makes the president, governors and elected officials. None of them should automatically become the leader because they won on its platform. This is something we have been battling since 99. |
With all the reasons you've given, can we safely say that APC will boldly say WE NO DE GIVE SHISHI? Is there any need to campaign? ![]() Vox populi... |

realG101:To each his own. This is not a honorable exit. You guys think men didn't take out themselves in the past? Or men who couldn't stand injustice sacrifice their lives? I stand by my words and truth hurts, if you like, call it insensitive. Cowards die many death before they take their life. We throw words around but maybe we don't really know the meaning. A hypocrite is a person who claims to have moral standards or beliefs that they do not actually follow, essentially pretending to be virtuous or pious while their actions contradict their words, often seen as a " say-do" gap or feigning virtue for praise or benefit. It describes someone who judges others for faults they themselves possess, or presents a false image of righteousness, unlike someone genuinely struggling with temptation. A hypocrite is someone who cannot defend their moral position because of what people will say. In all that you wrote, there was no solution. It was all about, you didn't know, you weren't in his shoes, you couldn't understand. You cannot take a side, you want to sound moral enough to be understanding but immoral enough not to be practical. How do you know we would not have helped? Anyway, I have written enough on this subject but for this guy and that letter he wrote, he was a selfish, self-centred person. Hard times don’t excuse contempt for life. Past generations faced wars and still chose endurance and duty over self-absorption. Compassion isn’t weakness but turning despair into a moral pass is hypocritical and that is what society is turning into today. Me me me, selfish, cuddling generation who want to guilt everyone else but take no responsibility. They want to take the spotlight away from them. Telling us being a coward is Honor. I spit on such. Compassion for suffering doesn’t require endorsing suicide, and refusing to judge doesn’t mean we abandon the value of life. Read my previous posts here. I do not believe in performative niceness, that is a red flag. I believe in action. If you need help, seek it. It's okay to feel bad, have negative thoughts, be taken by a bad experience but what we are taught in life is that everyone of us has his or her own challenges. No school of thought will recommend suicide so what are we yapping about? Trying to sound nice is trying to condone the action because you don't know. Excuse me. It must be condemned outrightly and those that are living can learn from the lessons but don't attempt to question what we would have done because we could have done a lot and the coward will take the easy path to end it all before the original end. The real failure isn’t judging the dead, it’s ignoring the living who are in pain while the dead took the convenient option that needs no accountability. I am not subscribed to any performative niceness, giving proper feedback is being kind, not being nice. Not giving the proper feedback is being nice but you're unkind and that's what society is doing today. We want to explain things away without holding anyone to account and we are back to square one. |

SixSeven:And if you think it's cruise, I have one more video for you When they aires this reality show of wife swap, see how the families reacted to the mother who cooked her food vs the mother who ordered cooked food for her family. The children were so happy when the Caucasian said she cooked, even children know these things. Keep arguing. You gonna learn! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUhKjYiaUik https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_ddg85wpLg |

Denko2721987:💯 Death is certain, the manner is not but character is what a man controls. We are not what we say we are. We are what we do. We are what we respond to and how we respond to life's different tests. Are we moving or are we staying in the same place? Keep it moving. It is a paradox that we need to keep fighting to live but we are eventually going to die. One way I get out of my head is when I go and meet someone else, listen to their stories, listen to their struggles, life is more than what we think of ourselves and who we think we are. One of the benefit of this same internet is that you now have access to read people's stories. People have gone through a lot and when you watch others who have gone through what you have been, it helps you. The elders say there's nothing new under the sky when there is a scandal or something has happened before. We learn from the experiences of those who have gone through the road before us. Yet we keep moving. May we be stronger than our weakest darkest thoughts.

DeepSight:That's your piece of cake. Bothers me not. Next time, ignore the ignorance of whoever you deem unfit to exchange with you. Misery loves company and being in that pathetic state and trying to justify it with you don't know what and whatever is your pound of cake. Don't spread your misery to the world. We are not oblivious of the world's problems, how we respond to it is what matters most and if you choose to off it, get off the lawn. We'll come join you when it's our natural time to go. A wise man can learn from a fouuolish question, but a fuuuool cannot learn from a wise answer because it is easier to fuuuol people than to convince them they have been fouuuoled. |
DeepSight:Euthanasia will never be African because it goes against the African soul, which holds life as sacred and belonging to the community, the ancestors, and God not to individual choice. A practice that intentionally ends life contradicts our spiritual and moral foundation, so it can never truly belong to us. I know about it and it is alien to us. Don't let the West indoctrinate you with foreign ungodly concepts. I hope you know they are assisting children now to take their lives. Jolene in my picture was in the news and the US guys said they were going to raise money to treat her for FREE, yet she still wanted to take her life. We don't do that here please. Dutch government backs plan to legalise euthanaia for minors under 12-years-old https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbEOLYSNO0k You will get to a stage where children will be tired of life and say they too want to go. You should actually study the principles of euthanisa, study the principles of your culture and tradition and then know which one is good for you. Euthanisa ko, Indonesia ni

grandstar:Thank you for your honesty. I avoided religion or anything like that in my previous posts because I respect people and their faith and I'm not here to sermonize but one of the things that keep us grounded in life is spirituality. It often comes through religion but being religious does not mean you're spiritual. Religion is structured in beliefs, rules, rituals, identity, community while spirituality is inner alignment of meaning, awareness, values, and how one relates to suffering, purpose, and life itself. A person can be religious yet spiritually ungrounded if faith becomes external performance rather than internal grounding. In that case, religion may provide answers, but not resilience. It may offer rules, but not resources for navigating pain, loss, or emptiness because most religious followers are judgmental and pretend that they are omnipresent. They think they can see the future. They use the books to judge a person's current story without realizing that life is never linear. Life is a mystery. One guy is enjoying sin and it looks like he has it all in this worldly life while one other person is righteous and they are going through so much suffering. They start to question their maker and doubt the reward for their efforts. We only see pieces of the puzzle, not the whole board. Spiritual grounding, whether religious or not, does something different. It anchors a person in meaning beyond momentary pain, it teaches that suffering is part of being human, not proof of failure and it encourages presence, humility, and acceptance rather than escape or self-judgment. When spirituality is absent, people may feel disconnected from themselves, defined only by productivity, comparison, or approval and overstimulated but inwardly empty (especially in a hyper-digital world of tech and social media). That inner emptiness is dangerous not because life lacks value, but because the person loses sight of it. Being spiritually grounded does not mean constant happiness. It means knowing pain is temporary, even when intense, understanding that thoughts are not commands and having something steady to return to when the mind becomes chaotic. This grounding, whether found through faith, philosophy, nature, service, or reflection helps people stay tethered to life, even when life feels heavy. Many of us have had this dark thought but we must learn to see the light, not the darkness. I have also had those moments and they can be dangerous. No matter how successful you are, the thought will just creep in and if you let it make a match stick in the haystack, it will burn the barn! We must continue to perish evil thoughts and let these dark experiences teach us our WHY. Why are we here on earth? Sorry for the speech you didn't ask me to write. I am just writing from my heart as I think of it right now. |
grandstar:If you were not a religious person, do you think you'll have done it? |
Biodun1929:But don't you think we also have different temperaments? Some people like to be alone and it's okay too although I find that most people who have these thoughts, it festers when you are buried in your own thoughts and you close it up. It's like a two-edged sword, if you open up to people, they betray you, abuse you, manipulate you, lie to you, deceive you and misuse your trust, if you don't open up to people, you will live in your head. No matter how bad human beings are, we still need to deal with them. First with ourselves, then secondly with the world. Therefore ManKnowThyself. The art of living is what we keep painting, we are all artists in this world. |
Vikto17:When I read your first few words and saw that you've made up your mind, there's no need convincing you with whatever conclusions you already have made up. Your research of a very limited sample size can never be a representation of the world. But one thing I have learned in life is LIKE ATTRACTS LIKE. When you get to that point on life, you will be able to seive the wheat from the chaff or the other way round. Do what works for you. I wish you well. |
LordReed:Amen. I wish you the same. May we remain spiritually fortified for the battles of this world is not merely physical. God bless your soul. |
dettolgel:I agree with your last lines. I see you have a good understanding of the topic. I have responded to some of your comments in other posts here. All the same, please seek professional help. However, remember that the world itself is complex and as I post, one person is being buried while another person is coming to this earth, we take turns. One thing I have learned from my experience with this people too is that it's all in their head. The mind is the most powerful thing you have. Once it's messed up, you are messed up for life. God protect you and your loved ones from messed up minds. Amen. Thank you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqF5V3CdF1Y |
Babalegba:I don't have a clue? Oh please. You guys should give us a break. You have no idea who I am. This is not about being insensitive but what has been happening recently is where we have lost our connection to mama Earth and connecting to what will take away our souls. I don't take depression lightly and understand people go through it. I won't talk about myself. I know people going through it right now. I k know the people who have told me they want to end it right now, the people we keep pushing, the people we keep encouraging, the people we keep trying to understand what seasons is all about. What about those abroad? Don't let's even go there. Those ones that suffer seasonal depression, those ones that are facing home and away challenges, trying to find their direction in life. The beauty of life is our experiences. It's not about who has it worse but you go to an IDP camp and one person is smiling at you and you that have all the luxuries in the world are wondering how this person in this bad condition, this person who lost her husband and kids, this person who the bad guys showed her the video of the unalive, this person who has buried so many, this person who does not know where her next meal will come from, this person who still has faith in humanity despite what humanity has done to her, this person.... We are all built differently and have different tolerance levels, understandably so but our time on earth here is one of life lessons. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EJdr4MoCI8 The world has come to recognize mental health and there is much awareness about it. I want to be careful we don't pet these 'feelings' too much. Maybe because the world has not had world war 3 so this generation has become weak and selfish that they only want ME ME ME. The advent of the camera and social media has made them point the camera to themselves alone. They forget what humans are all about. There are certain principles in life that make us grounded, there are experiences from those who came before us that we learn from. What we just want is SEEK HELP when you have a problem. The old adage says A PROBLEM SHARED IS HALF SOLVED. NONE OF US IS GETTING OUT OF THIS WORLD ALIVE so we know this life is a journey we are living and our lives, no matter how short or long should have a purpose. You are very unkind to your maker when you take what was given to you despite the millions of sperms trying to win the birth place lottery that brought you here on earth. Whenever you think about your problems, help someone else. That way, you will learn more about yourself than the person you are helping. A person is a person because of another person. We all need each other. Don't disrespect us by cutting off the ties willingly just because you can. If all of us did that, none of us will remain.

maasoap:I. Am. Enraged because this person was well exposed. This person was manipulative. This person displayed signs of narcissism. If you truly loved that woman, you didn't need to put her through that pain and guilt. The girl wey Don go her own jejely, you bring your script to disrupt her life. You tell us you are happy and unburden. So we that we are alive should feel the guilt of being a burden Ba? If you wanted us not to say nothing about it, keep your post off the way you deleted your socials. Don't disturb us with this WHY question. It's selfish and wicked. I carry the matter on my head because the guy knew he had influence and many people have gone through this moment where they lay low and take care of themselves because of the burden of this world. I don't want these people to start confusing our young lads who are now selfish and entitled due to the western world they have swallowed from new media. It remains a taboo. I deliberately did not mention the religious aspect of what he did but we don't want things like this and even our ancestors separate their bodies in the graveyard because of the abomination. |
