midolian: My post was actually not for everyone.
But for the sake of people who find it hard to reason like you, let me make it simple. That was only a rhetorical question. I never meant the bride price was for fvcking their daughters.. How ironic that you think it's others who find it hard to reason. Have I mentioned your vulgar attempt at sarcasm? Your post implies that it is wrong for dowry to be paid because as you mentioned, parents spend years to raise their girls, implying that women inherently have value and therefore should not be rewarding a man for marrying them. I am now asking you why it is then right for men to pay bide price since we were also raised and therefore have the same value. |

midolian: No punishment will do for this kinda madness..
You cut the belly open to see what she is carrying, thereby putting the lives of the child and mother at risk? This is record breaking display of lunacy.
The problem is India. When the other parts of the world are trying to get rid of rats, India is busy hunting down cats. How do you bring up a female child all of your life, and in the end pay the to-be husband a huge sum in the name of dowry. What kind of meaningless culture is that? Are you paying him for fvcking your daughter in advance or for what exactly? So when male children pay huge amounts in bride price, does it imply that they were not brought up? Or what exactly is the payment for? |

They can fool simpletons with Corona and other nonsense as their reason for banning Emirates but we know the truth, it has to do with Israel and UAE deal So they didn't bam flights from Israel but they banned flights from UAE over the UAE's diplomatic relations with Israel? Are you under the impression that Nigeria does not have diplomatic relations with Israel? |

But at least no more bragging right of 'I'm a military officer'. Especially for that cowardly Akeem bastard who is the son of a moribund Lagos monarch in Iba. Awon oloshi. A fake major who a well fed olosho on Allen Avenue can easily defeat in a fair and square one-on-one physical battle.

Crime › Re: Naval Officer Fights With Lagos Task Force Over BRT Lane (video) by SmartyPants(m): 3:41pm On Sep 17, 2020 |
myBraine: Imagine?
Prior to me watching the YouTube video above, I initially thought that the narval officer was guilty of the allegation issued against him but after perusing the video content, it came to my realization that the task officers were suffering from intellectual superiority.
Knowing fully well that the officer was a loner as at the time of the incident, they preyed on him by taking advantage of that and exploited him in groups.
He is a military man for crying out loud. Maneuvering his way through BRT lane shouldn't be the topic of discussion. Lagos roads are usually busy and this man has to reach his destination on time (mostly for the sake of bloody civilians).
For those of us that has been privileged to travel by air before, we violently and ridiculously trespassed international airspace just to reach our desired countries on time. Now, imagine if those countries we trespassed on began firing us missiles from their military airbase, how many of us will still be alive today?
I am standing with this Naval officer, not because I am a military or a paramilitary man but solely because I am a man with an eccentric mindset and a functioning brain. No aircraft enters another country's airspace without express permission. That you are not there when they are making such agreements should not lead you to conclude that there are no such agreements. The slightest violation of international airspace will lead to a speedy enounter with the airforce of that country and you may not like the outcome. And so what if he is a military man? The law is the law! |

You people suppose to know 1 thing, its Kano, land of Muslims, full of muslims, they are originated like that, they follow their state rules, so, if YOU happen to be outside of Kano, and not a muslim,
THEN I STRONGLY RECOMMEND BACKING UP !!! That child never asked to be born in Kano.

baiaon: Rivalry in football is good but I believe OM players,staff and supporters hold a grudge against psg. Every slight shove and tackle by a psg player in the match was reacted to as a personal insult by OM players. OM were the jewels of French club football for many years.So it must feel awful for their fans and players in recent years seeing psg receive all the attention and accolades in France and the rest of the world Marseille and PSG is a very fierce local derby, its not really about PSG's success though that may be a factor. Worth noting that the most successful team of the recent history is Lyon not Marseille. |

Arrewa: Some of you Christians are bloody hypocrites!!
If a Christian commit any act of terrorism you'll blame him not Christianity.
But when a Muslim commit any crime you'll blame his religion!
Why the hatred?? Religion is now the biggest threat to human and world at large. Imagine what is coming out from a world leader
Why not stand up for humanity instead of religion? Why didn't the orange man ask Isreal to stop killing Muslim Palestinians?
Hypocrisy of Christianity!
1.Jesus is the only way to God, John 14:6 This invariably means those who don't believe in Jesus have no business in heaven. Christians worldwide have an estimated population of 2.4billion people Islam records an estimate of 1.9 billion adherents, Hindu has an estimated 1.1bn adherents. The remaining world's population have their own beliefs which includes atheism. If Jesus is the only way to God, what happens to those who don't believe in him? Hell? Well, the Bible suggests so.
2. There are a lot of complications and contradictory remarks in the Bible- a verse says don't drink, another says "Drink for your stomach sake", or "Do not drink wherein excess." Malachi 3:10 a famous Bible verse on tithing speaks about bringing your tithe to the storehouse (church, maybe) Deuteronomy 14:22-26 says otherwise, it says "you should drink and be merry with your tithe". I'm seriously beginning to doubt the credibility of the Bible. Maybe the translators' fault or God told writers different stories on the same issue. Read Matthew, Mark, Luke and John's account of Jesus and see real contradictions.
Stop hating and stereotyping people because of their tribe or religion.
Judge people by their moral standard.
Embrace humanity and free your yourself from mental captivity!!!! Don't be a fool. Or be a fool. Your choice. 1. Which Christian in the past two centuries has ever killed non Christians and claimed to be doing it for God or in the name of Christianity? 2. Which verse in the Bible Says don't drink? |

sexylassie2: He actually filed for defamation and false accusation in the Uk, during that period she was in the Uk
so i believe Nigeria court can not take on the case because the event happened in the Uk, she will have to be arrested and flown back to the uk to face the court of law there. There's no such offence in law. Defamation can be heard in the country where she is domiciled regardless of where the offense took place. |

sexylassie2: I dont think so, he filed a case in nigeria but this stuff happened in UK, the case is supposed to be in the UK. A valid question, though not from the perspective you are looking at it. The main question should be, what is she being charged with? If it is for perjury then the offense happened in England and should be treated there. If it is for defamation, this is a civil matter, and though the Courts can exercise jurisdiction, there are no grounds for arrest. |

thelish: And if he was given, he should reject it, cos his surname is long-suffering Lol I have not addressed the pastor, nor any particular person. I specifically addressed your point, which was that pastors deserve to be happy by amassing nice possessions. I am drawing your attention to the fact that this declaration of yours does not appear to have a grounding in scripture. And yes my dear, long-suffering, both in its literal meaning and the figurative sense in which you have used it, should indeed be traits every pastor should endeavor to uphold. After all, Jesus made it clear that our reward is in heaven, and that every loss on earth will be repaid in heaven. so why should a Christian fear long-suffering? Note, these are separate points, and this distinction is necessary in that I wish to make it clear that I have not said that a Christian should not work and have a decent life. |

In 2015, I came back to Nigeria to traveled to UK for schooling and was also asked to buy return ticket. So, I'm talking from experience. Coincidentally two of my siblings schooled in both of those countries (one in England, one in North Cyprus, and one in Poland) and I don't remember the return ticket being a requirement. Certainly they came home at will..I'll check again though. Confirmed: No return ticket needed for the one who went to the UK. But it may depend on the length of your program. @fados4sure |

Do you know that Ghana has free tuition from primary to secondary school, and they also feed everyday in school? Ghana is a 1000% better than Nigeria. What is the use of a beautiful environment with nothing to offer your citizens? Bro, I'm not in Nigeria at the moment but I do know that anything federal education is also as cheap as free so don't bring that as a point. When I am talking about quality of life, you need to ask, what is the average salary for a Ghanaian graduate, and how much is the cost of renting a one bedroom apartment in Ghana? The average Ghanaian graduate can barely save a penny, and not that much is booming in terms of business, which is why they are always crying about foreigners in retail trade. This is what matters most, not free education, but the ability of individuals to make a decent living and live a decent life. We may not appreciate Nigeria but truth is, in West Africa, we have the best economic opportunities. |
