How do you then explain the following "red lettered", direct saying of Christ in Matthew 5?

38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39 But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. 40 If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have your cloak also. 41 And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 [o]But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, 45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

19 Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Ask yourself this simple question, would Jesus have "liked" Trump's post?

Rest Muslim don't come here and quote the Bible when you are seeking our empathy, i call that taqiya

There are limits to forgiveness, you Muslim don't know the Bible more than we Christian's

7 × 70 is clearly a limit

Your islamist has past even

70 × 700

DemonSlayer:
This comment reveals where your bias lies. Correct me if I’m wrong, but this reflects a common "Christian" perspective that frames the conflict through a religious lens—as an "us versus them" narrative, pitting "good" Christians/Jews against "bad" Muslims/terrorists. While Christianity, as Jesus taught in the parable of the Good Samaritan, is meant to foster empathy for our neighbours and the suffering, it can also be twisted to dull our moral instincts as I'm assuming it has done to you. When self-serving individuals weaponize faith for propaganda, it can lead people to celebrate or justify evil, betraying the very compassion that Jesus' teachings aim to nurture.

Christianity doesn't meant sitting down and showing empathy to a known Hydra headed drangon because it's injured, when he knows he could be easily devoured when the dragon heals

God Bless Isreal

All those "muslims for Trump" How far?

Trump will completly take over Gaza and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it o..

How person go vote for someone who doesnt want to see your face at all is a wonder

You learn,and you'll learn the very very hard way

CodeTemplar:
Trump is a wolve in sheep clothing o. Those inflated weapons that China can produce for a quarter of the price is what he want to trade a whole ukraine for?

Who asked the comedian to be foolish in the first place?

Who doesn't know been an enemy of the State is dangerous and been a friend is heavily fatal?

WriterNig:
Folks with all I've seen.

It's safe to say the US is planning to invade another country. Their sudden support for Russia ain't for nothing.

We back your decision in Ukraine while you back ours in Greenland or Panama or Mexico.

A big war is coming. I'll bet on it.

Couldn't agree more

If it's Canada or Greenland, then I pray he succeed

FreeStuffsNG:
Lobatan. Ukraine just got scammed.

If the Ukrainians know what is good for them, they should sack Zelensky the inexperienced leader and turn the warfare into a resistance struggle against both Russian and USA.

None of the trio of Zelensky, Putin or Trump can save them. Only a Patriotic, courageous charismatic Leader like Nelson Mandela, Yahya Sinwar, Washington, Obafemi Awolowo, Gaddafi can deliver them.

Let the Russians and Americans come in then squeeze them like Taliban did to USA till USA flee from their land.


Cowards die several times before their own death. Granted that they are lazy and cowardly but they can't run for ever. Zelensky is not the kind of leader they need. They should start by sacking him first.

Your write up was making sense, but you spoiled everything when you start mentioning stupid individuals like Yama Yama shinwawa and archaic stone-aged mentality talibans

Pierocash:
No stay, don't resign. You will resign , and no NATO memebership for you. He keeps insisting on what is the genesis of the war. ode

In other words, Ironically, he is ready to resign

Now am planning on writing to these OEM's on These suggestions

Let's try to reach them on every available channels and emails

What I can say here is that

Respect yourself and your boundaries, a married woman asking for something from another Man is obviously a bruise on her husband ego, clearly she is telling him to his face that he can't meet up to responsibility.

Any Married Woman that is bold enough to be asking you for phone, can be bold enough to start ask you for money for her children's feeding, upkeeps and even school fees and then yes asking for servicing of the kpekus in the oda room, from clap to dance.

Since over a decade we all have seen that the economy has been drastically degraded and yet a Man is obviously still foolish enough to get another wife? Let me guess, he is Muslim?

Two wives and 8 children? A barber in a cool environment like wuse 2 with one wife and 4 children would be doing fine, but it is extremely foolish for him to pick another wife and put more burden upon himself, how the hell will his wives ever respect him when obviously he can't even provide for them? Why won't the said married woman be asking another Man for itel phone?

Some Men are just silly

Op stay away from that woman, like someone said, the wife might even be rubbing it all over the foolish husband's face, women don't reason repercussions of actions taken, be warned.

The mosque is a bigger problem

Olorunjoe:
GLO is terribly bad

The worst network provider

Olorunjoe:
Baba, God bless you. U too Sabi. This is the exact situation of GLO here. It's provocative, it's annoying. Ogun kill GLO data network

GLO?

Count me out

ndukwejoe:
Who put up this survey,where did you keep Edo state

As in very confused write up

A list without Benin City is totally false

Unlimitk:
Cost of living in Benin akure cost pass island in Lagos
Na only house rent Lagos use cost pass many states in Nigeria
I spent over 5 years in Lagos island
Just 1 week in Benin city.im already complaining
Yoruba land apart from ondo ekiti is cheap due to presence of many industries and farming

Infact the whole write up from the op is flawed

Benin City should be either first or second position

Hmm 🤔🤔

Please state your prices here

Longpriq:
You have a point

Thanks 😊

Glad you are now seeing things somehow from my perspective

At least before it reaches the Earth atmosphere, it should be intercepted with a projectile missile

Darklantern:
Yeah...which is a really nice idea

It's not

Infact low grade, low end budget Android devices should be phased out and replaced with dumb feature phone's

There should be the mid-range, High-End and the feature phone's

I see this low grade smartphones as a waste of time, because with updates, they become useless quickly compared to mid-range and High-End devices.

ParadoxWrites:
I agree... But I think realme is trying to redefine that aspect. They are using UNISOC processors for their entry level devices and it's especially durable for workmen and the likes

Okay true, but only on smartphones

We need this concept on Dumb Phone's too don't you think?

baralatie:
Good question which countries in Europe has sufficient ground forces
That is the question and who will take command🙄
Note that the UK is no longer part of the EU
Well there is NATO Force

The UK without the US is useless and can never be aggressor towards Russia alone

Russia will wipe that useless island

eepeepook:
I need a summary of that write-up before I can present an opinion.

Simply saying

Dumb Phone's can/ should be tweaked and customizable like smartphones for user's on the go too

I just want to hear your thoughts on this, I know not everyone wants a feature Phone

Longpriq:
First of all your long write up defeats the purpose of this post. It’s supposed to be straightforward
By the way there is a dumb phone I need
I’ll like you to check out the Nokia 8000 and 6300 or something like that. It’s a a really nice phone with YouTube and WhatsApp ability but I don’t know how to get my hands on them. No really new phones though but I’ll recommended these companies to create more phones like that

Sorry for that Sir, but in my own way, i was trying to pass a message signifying the importance of a Dumb Phone for a artisan like myself or people on the go

The Nokia 6300 4G got very poor reviews and i even heard many of them were recalled, the one's you will see now in the Nigerian market are the 2G versions from the Asian North Africa market, you will only see the 4G probably maybe refurbished or used

As for the Nokia 8000 4G, that phone was lovely, a friend of mine was using it some year's back as a side Phone, but the truth is both phones are good as useless in 2025

No more KaiOs update

No more Google services

They're only practically good as modem for the Wi-Fi/hotspot, if only the Jio phone could support band's that works with NIGERIA network's that could have been better, as they are working towards something new

But for now all dumb phones are now practically Phone call making modems.
HMD are lost in the ocean of confusion, they don't have any idea so they rather stick with mocor rtos, Transsion? Nothing, hence the reason I say African tech reviewers and individuals should make these complaint's to these OEMs

Obviouslyblunt:
All these won’t help the devices. There are midrange phones running a super fast Snap dragon chip, 90hz or 120hz refresh rate.

Yes truly there are, but the main bone of contention is that not everyone wants to carry a smartphone around for everyday stuffs and most people would like a Dumb phone with a smartphone vibe like the good old days

Personally IMO, it would be better if OEM s use lower end chips plus Android Go os on dumb feature phone's and scrap out that low budget Android phone's as you will agree with me, they don't actually meet up and presently in Nigeria, not everyone can even afford the supposed mid range phone you're talking about.

What do you guys think?

Prologue

It's almost half past five in the evening, and the boy's are already packing their working tools into the cabin of my car, what a lovely evening, work completed and delivered, and now happily waiting for my client to wire my balance into my Opay account so i can transfer cash payments for each of the boy's, they're already expecting their treasure after a hard day labor, one of them wants cash for SMA GOLD for his baby, another wants to fund his younger sisters weekend as she called him earlier in the morning laying complaint's after complaint's of the hunger in UNIBEN the last one wants to do some groceries for his fiancee as there is no food left at home that day, if i fail to pay them, what explanation will i provide?

Alert came and i settled them, (i could see the relief in their faces) and just as we were about driving back to Benin City, i received a call from this same client telling me there's a new gate design she wants in one of her hotels in Benin and she was trying to send its pic to me through WhatsApp (oops my smartphone is already bricked) and presently, getting a smartphone is becoming a burdensome task, it's actually not that I can't get a new one, but that is not part of my agenda for now as I've got bills to clear up at home, so I had to settle for a feature phone or should I call it a semi-Dumb Phone for now

That brings us to the topic

To be honest the nature of my job is mostly the culprit for almost all my bricked smartphones, as many of them mix up with paints and alcohols, and presently the prices of smartphones used and new are not that friendly, i figured feature phones will be easier but for the same nature of the job, not just any feature phone will fit in, but a Dumb feature phone (smart feature phone) would suffice.

Now I considered a feature phone with Kai Os or Yun Os, but i was disappointed with the both OS because their reviews were very poor and as at now, both OS doesn't even have support for WhatsApp

And then I decided to get a Dumb phone with Android OS, the Mobiwire Oneida, and I was disappointed as the Android 4.4 KitKat was already obsolete and WhatsApp is outdated for it

I had to get a Tecno T902 4G semi-Dumb phone it doesn't WhatsApp though.

I think Meta services are now exclusively solely available only for Android and iOS devices

This is not good for me, but on the flip side, one had to stay online as a work Man.

Would have gone for HMD global Nokia, but they're darn expensive even with their generic mediatek mocor os. This transsion feature phone is not bad, but it's still bland for my kind of tech salvation, so

My Advice For Feature/Dumb Phone Makers Like Transsion, HMD, Gionee, Alcatel, imose, ZTE etc

1 Spice it up

Presently for the record, I will pick any Nokia symbian smart feature phone's ahead of these modern day feature phone's

2 WhatsApp, (Meta services) telegram, maps and many modern day apps are essential for many artisans and businesses today, and not everyone likes to use smartphones (let's be honest) but we just have to always still be on the go and heck, Dumb Phone user's still need to have a fair share of what the real smartphones user's are privileged to have even if it's not all.


Opinion

Like in the case of My Tecno T902 4G,

Transsion could have done better.

1 Since they couldn't use the already almost dead KaiOs like they did with the T901, they could've Actually port the Artificial intelligence called HiOs into an actual real time Os but ONLY based on Android Go from Android 8/9 (as it is actually a low grade phone so it's SOC won't be fanciful) and maybe rename the OS

Something like HiOs x lite etc

2 Get your app store and get more developer's for Android go apps with support for updates (HiOs update on apps)

3 most people love to type fast, and so there's possibilities for a QWERTY keyboards in some of their feature phones like we have back then in blackberries and many symbian phones

4 they can still actually make the Ai HiOs an independent OS and get developer's to bring in some good HiOs signed apps (in collaboration with option 2) and make this os exclusively available for their dumb feature phones like Nokia did with symbian phones (am not sure of this one if they can pull it off, but it's worth it)

5 Use some modern low grade chips like some low unisoc and most low grade mediatek chips as these will handle 3G/4G/Wi-Fi / Hotspots easily even when the phones are embedded with 512 mb 1/2 gig RAM and 64/128/246/512 mb 1/2/3/4 gig ROM

6 Bring ota updates for the HiOs either Android Go based or independent real time Os for at least a year

7 this also applies to the other phone brands like Alcatel, Gionee, HMD, Imose, ZTE etc invent and be spontaneous


Epilogue

Africa's population of youths are growing to smartphones and dumb feature phone's benefits, but the bitter truth remains that majority of them are not tech savvy, unlike their Asian counterparts, if you doubt me, search for itels and Tecno feature phones made for Asian market vs Tecno and itel feature phone's made for African markets you will see great difference, heck there was an itel feature phone for Pakistan that has 4g plus KaiOs and Google maps two years back, or should I talk about how the Jio phone is the best Dumb Phone in India and Pakistan today?
HMD goofed really big, and since KaiOs has become past tense, they shouldn't have gone to the mocor os, Yun Os would have even been better although it would have only sold in the Asian market, Alcatel couldn't do without KaiOs, i don't know what they're planning next, Transsion? That one na anywhere Belle face 😂, but the most important thing is African youths should speak up

This is just my opinion, i could be wrong, correct me if you think I am, we're all here to learn

What an fvgly ogre
