I don't hear about all this federal government income from bail money. Where does it go? Lol

Bail is not income. It is returned to the accused person once the case has run its course and they appeared in court as and when due.

ImaIma1:
So he should waste his savings in a country where nothing is working?

How would he waste his savings?

Is it not from the same country he made his 10 million?

Besides, I have already suggested, as have many others that he can move to another African country.

ImaIma1:
Did he say he is unskilled?

You know what I meant.

What viable job openings do you know of for a man of his profile -- fresh ff the boat, 40 years old, no university education (no stated skill either), with no western work experience?

If you know of such openings it would be good to share so he can decide if he wants to do that kind of work.

And if you don't know of such openings, maybe you shouldn't encourage him to waste his savings?

ImaIma1:
There are so many opportunities for people of different levels in many developed countries. Even my friend's mum that is in her 60s works when she visits her daughter in Canada. Information is key.

What sort of options would you say are available for the unskilled freshly landed migrant male at 40?

ImaIma1:
It's typical for some of you living abroad to discourage people here from relocating.

Ok...a few questions...

Did your own money finish?

Did you come back home?

Is the quality of life better here or there?

Is food expensive?


As you stay there is it impossible to make more than 20,000 dollars in a year?

It's not like the op will just go and sit down and be spending without working.

A 40 year old man with no tertiary education? What work is he going to do?

TimeTraveller:
People don tell you say awon 'aspire to perspire' like me are coming
Ayam hia, their father!

Listen, N10million is a lot of money in Nigeria, but it's NOTHING in most countries.
You are 40 and WAEC holder, many employers abroad will avoid you.
If you could make 10 mil, you can make 20mil, don't let small boys pressure you o!

You can change cities within Nigeria if you don't like where you are.
There are still many good places in Naija --- Uyo, Calabar, Enugu, even Lagos is not bad.

Build wealth here enough to send your kids abroad to study instead of jappaing and becoming an old nuisance abroad.

Las Las, follow ya heart.

The truth that htey don't want to hear.

At 40, forget about finding gainful employment over there. It is either you are very well established in a field like programming or you want to start your business which you don't have enough money for.


Why don't we like to tell each other the truth??

If you must move, try another African country.

kaludestiny10:
Are you now equating the corp member to a prisoner? This your thoughts are quite shallow.

There is of course a parallel. It is the parallel of a relationship between a superior and a subordinate.

Just like an army officer dare not propose to a soldier of the rank and file. A lecturer can't date his direct student, etc. In the west, bosses in the office must be very careful with what they say to their subordinates as any attempted approach can be construed as harassment due to the power disparity.

Understand this: relationships between people of different power status in a working context are frowned upon everywhere because of the implication that the superior one is either using their position to coerce the subordinate, or to favour them unduly.

Well.. in their defense, some of these guys would kill too without hesitation... Still doesn't make the action right tho.

Bros haba. Only you dey defend, only you still dey attack.

Stay one place, make your message dey clear.

mixmastering:
So what about this Male soldier wearing uniform in front of police station?
Or is it because the soldier is female?

maxymilliano, stephen0mozzy, apasino01, juman, tarorfeeek, thekingsmann, hammyaladin, smartypants, adebayo201,

It has nothing to do with uniform. It has to do with the inappropriate relationship between the soldier and tje corper. Its that simple.

Bro dont worry, i go Bleep the hell out of your wayward daughthers... Teen pregnancy go full your house. All ur daughters go dey collect prick from 14 years old

You are actually the the baby in man's form for this stupid comment.

chatinent:
But isi ukwu, she was not getting married naw. She was only engaged! Of course she knew the rules. When has engagement turned her into a wife! What if they planned to wait until after three years? Or is another oga who wanted to shine congo angry that a potential teagirl has been lost? Why una like to kill person joy and only remember rules and regulations on good matters? Was there not rules of engagement during the Lekki night?

Not qualifying for marriage is the least of the violations alleged.

More important:

Soldiers deployed to military camps are not to engage in amorous relationships with corpers. That is actually a grave violation of protocol.

Secondly, there is a social media policy that she violated.

Emperormartin:
Musa will still make the team even under Eguaveon. In fact lemme burst your bubble; musa will go to the World Cup if Nigeria qualifies.

See eh there’s sth you guys don’t understand about Musa; he’s not there on merit; he’s representing the northern region whose numbers in the National team are becoming slimmer on each new day…

The notherners are actually increasing though most Nigerians dont know that certsin players like Moses Simon, Jamilu Collins are northerners

There are loads of players who don't get injured. But I might also ask you, if it is wichcraft, as you allege, are they the only onesw ith access to it?

Try dey reason completely abeg.

Mynd44:
You won't win. Not even in America with crazy laws.

A pilot can tell anyone to get off. It is the authority the pilot has

It would be misleading to say there is no limit to what a pilot can do. A pilot only has a general power to order disembarkment but it must be within the confines of law otherwise the airline will pay for it dearly.

This does not occur in humans, except to cause tumours.

Are you sure you are okay??

you've been posting an impressive stream of nonsense.

Please calm down.

Praxis758:
Since FG fail to heed the call for restructuring through constitutional amendment, folks are now using judicial means to achieve their rights being suppressed by the hegemony sitting in Abuja.

Last, last, local and state governments will render some dictatorial contents of the tyrannic 1999 constitution useless through the judiciary.

The 1999 document is tyrannic, satanic, oppressive, retrogressive, archaic and complacent that empowers Abuja at the detriment of our collective progress.


However, will this court judgement invalidate all the precious marriages conducted by the registry?

Chai. Please this is nonsense.

The Court's ruling is in line with the Constitution, not against it.

StJohnofChrist:
Do you believe in the inherent desire to seek a God, lemme put it this way, an intelligent being outside time and space, the desire to know if there's a greater being responsible for the rocks, plants, animals, intelligence in itself, coordination of natural elements?.

Not necessarily. I believe all humans are innately curious not just about the origin of all that we see, but about how things work in general.

Tetehjewels:
Atheism is a rejection of God
An Atheist states clearly that God does not exist

So how can there be any kind of conflict in their thoughts?

It is possible to hold a strong position, yet to entertain secret doubts. This is not unique to athiests, as even religious people may hodl such doubts.

Tetehjewels:
My Son is super smart and at 8 has already been given double promotion twice in school. The 1st one he got was in the 2nd term of that year and he was only able to join the new class in their 3rd term yet he still came first and the school thought it necessary to move him again. So he is now in a class with kids 3yrs older than he is and already besting them too.

We are a very God loving family and even though I have never sat my son down to talk to him about God, I do ensure he goes to Church with me and joins me in my daily morning devotions. I do notice that he has an extremely inquisitive mind and would rather watch educational channels on DStv than cartoons especially since they stopped showing his best cartoon "Goku"

So we have this neighbour who is from Greece. His 7 yr old son and my son can be considered best of friends and they visit each other at will. So on this day he came to visit and while they were hanging out I suddenly heard them arguing from his room. Normally their arguments would be over a video game or something else but this one was interesting. They were arguing about God!

I stood by the door and listened. Apparently that day revealed to me that my neighbour is an atheist but I never knew and he has been indoctrinating his 7yr old son along those lines because I clearly heard the boy say to my Son, "God does not exist, he is just a story"

So here is the convo

Him: God is not real, He does not exist, He is just a story

My Son: Ethan what did you say?

Him: God is not real, He is just like Santa who also isn't real

My Son: How do you know he isn't real?

Him: Well my dad said he isn't real because he just isn't. Have you seen him?

My Son: So your dad says God isn't real because he hasn't seen him? So something isn't real because you can't see it? But what about feeling Him?

Him: Feelings are not something we can um um fully determine because they can be misleading

My Son: How can you say Feelings are misleading, you are my friend right? (He goes yeah?) So how are you sure you are my friend if your feelings can be misleading. Can you say your feelings misled you into being my friend?

Him: No that's not what I was trying to say

My Son cuts him off with a sharp tone: So if your feelings did not mislead you into being my friend how then do feelings mislead you?

Him: Have you felt God before?

My Son: No but I do know that I think about him a lot

Him: umm umm but How would you possibly be thinking about something that does not exist

My Son: Exactly Ethan!

At this point I step into the room and cheerfully say Okay guys playtime is over (because I needed to stop the argument and get my Son to study by asking his friend to go home)

However his final comment "Exactly Ethan" resonated with me and made me think that comment was actually directed at Ethan's dad and not Ethan because apparently he had been talking about the non existence of God to his Son A LOT!

So how do you constantly talk or think about Something or Someone that doesn't exist?

You're an adult so you must be smart enough to reason beyond this point. An athiest probably grew up in religious home where he would have been taught about God a lot.

Thinking about God a lot does not prove that there is God, though it might suggest the athiest is conflicted.

UselessBuhari:
Even the original post we are discussing about repeated it

Kindy highlight where such a claim was made

UselessBuhari:
99.99 percent recover from COVID19 before the vaccine. If the only job it does is to mitigate its effect, why the claim that vaccination will stop the spread?

Who made this claim?

lexy2014:
"It mitigstes effects"....another grammar. Pls what does that mean? Pls what is d job of a vaccine?

If you don't gerrit ...do the needful.

This subject is well-above your capacity from the looks of things.

lexy2014:
Sorry bro. U haven't answered the questions asked:

what has the thinking of nigerians and their getting bsc got to do with the ineffectiveness of the vaccine?

is it only nigerians that have reservations about the so called vaccine?

a[b]m surprised u are saying that "his body would fight it." why didnt u say "the vaccine in his body will fight it[/b]"?

Ah ah but he just explained to you that a vaccine is not a drug! it is a stimulant that trains your body to fight the disease!

Grace001:
Fully vaccinated, still tested positive to COVID

These Chinese virus ( Covid-19) is dealing with the world

The vaccine does not prevent infection per se. It mitigates its effects.

thebosstrevor1:
Guess they are a family of SS.

This genotype stuff made me believe in the survival of the fittest.

Soon those with AS and SS will be without partners for procreation because AA wants to marry only AA.

But it is interesting to note that genotype isn't a topic of discussion when dating or marrying in the developed world.

AS is a genetic mutation prevalent only in African and the Caribean

asanausana91:
so if have a gun threatening to kill the president, the DSS should first ask the court before blowing your useless Flatt Head up ?
There is executive power.

Grow up.

Mynd44:
Supremacy of the Constitution.

The fact is that for you to even have a rule of law, you need to have national security.

There are times things are not stipulated by law yet are applicable case-in-point, "doctrine of necessity"

I am afraid this part will only lead to derailing of this thread. We kinda have to stop

Agree to disagree then.

Mynd44:
Every time National issues pop up and people throw up International treaties and charters, I get bored and Tried.

Every country is sovereign in its laws and governance and can decide to go against a charter it signed. The only laws a country is subject to are its own laws as made by the legislature or as declared by the judiciary.

The FG held Dokubo for years and the supreme court said they can because he was considered a national threat.

That is precedence and that is the basis of the law in this case or did you see the judge mentioning the AU charter or the UN charter?

Well, good! When the judge there makes reference to the suspension of human rights, notice he does not rely on any Nigerian provision. He merely says, "such is not new". That is because such is foreign to our constitution, though it is known to International Law. But since you wish to exclude international law from the conversation, then tell me, what is the statutory basis of the suspension of any right?

What is the status of legal precedent as compared to Constitutional provisions?

Peruse:

Section 1: Supremacy of the Constitution
Sections 33-46: Fundamental Human Rights

http://www.nigeria-law.org/ConstitutionOfTheFederalRepublicOfNigeria.htm

Then tell me which law in Nigeria permits all the excesses you have defended.

Mynd44:
These are the words of the Superman court



Meaning even the rule of law itself is subject to National Security not the other way

Hence why Guam is done.

Hence why Boko Haram members can be held and locked up for years without trial

Okay, let's understand principles.

1. Limitations and Derogations

In human rights, sure, there is the concept of limitation of rights, and there is the concept of derogation (suspension of certain rights in time of emergency).

In no uncertain terms, derogation is not permitted under the African Charter. State parties thereto, therefore cannot under any circumstances claim to suspend human rights pending the restoration of national security. There is a plethora of cases to this effect.

Even where derogation is allowed (in other human rights systems outside Africa), there is a particular legal procedure that must be followed before any such right can be derogated from. The requirements are stringent, and rarely ever used.

What is allowed in the African context, is the limitation of rights. And this must not be arbitrary, it must be done in line with existing laws, and not at the whim of the president or his agents.


2. Guam is the worst example you could use because it actually illustrates my point. The reason those alleged terrorists are held in Gam is not that there is not enough space on mainland USA. IT is because their law does not permit the torture and indefinite detention of individuals that goes on at Guam. Since Guam is not on mainland USA, the executive use it to bypass their own constitutional human rights protections.

If you have been following the news, every president pledges to shut it down because there is no legal justification.

The rule of law can never be suspended inany democracy, no matter what. That is a ludicrous idea.

Mynd44:
Actually, go back to read. Those are the declarations of the judge and not just the defendant

Okay, that's true. I misread that, as though it were the defense counsel speaking.
