it suits your narrative that's why you are talking this way. If it was against your person you will abuse him, that's not too hard to understand, is it?
1. You do not know what I would do. You only know what you would do and assume that I am like you.

2. I do not have persons. I have interests.

Just like Lumumba is praying for the downfall of his fellow kenyan. It's the African way
It's not about anyone's downfall, the point he is making is that it is about the betterment of Africa.

About picking the best person instead of the one you feel connected to.

That's not too hard to understand...is it?

Simplyleo:
Really?

But when Kaduna state enacted similar sanction against rapists, I could remember ipob miscreants did not waste time before lashing Elrufai and insulted him down to his forefathers for "introducing sharia" in a state.

What will they say now? Obviously, the miscreants will make another U-turn the way the chief pig lamidi cownu always chicken out. undecided
Why anyone's opinion change because a small minority practise this?

Xisnin:
The suspect is not so bright.
You wanted to insult a politician and you decided to impersonate your target.



This opinion is from a charge and bail lawyer, no wonder he couldn't secure his client release.
Nigeria law forbids impersonation even online regardless of the purpose of the impersonation.

But the bail is too high for the poor boy who only wanted some attention.
His lawyer should reapply for bail adjustment.
Which part of Nigerian Law?
Education › Re: Matawalle Donates N100m To JIBWIS For Construction Of Islamic University by SmartyPants(m): 3:14pm On Jul 17, 2020
Elzak:
Likewise this university you people want to bury before it's birth. It's a conventional university owned by Muslims. The governor of Zamfara state is a Muslim contributing to the university, that doesn't mean the Zamfara state government is founding or funding the university.

What point are you trying to make this time around? You people were on nairaland screaming how there were more Christian-owned universities than Muslim-owned universities. Now Muslims get one and you people are complaining. Why exactly?
Since you can type well, I want to assume you can also read well.

The governor said the education will be Islamic. Not Conventional.


I actually don't have any problems with this. If you guys think this is how your societies should be run, then by all means have at it.

I just wish Nigeria could be split once and for all.

holuwajobar:
State funded?

All I know is that it is privately owned
So then, privately owned, funded and managed Covenant University is nothing like the Islamic university which is being paid for my the governor of one of the poorest states in Nigeria. To think that you lot are applauding this is staggering and reiterates the need for us all to go our separate ways.

What does that have to do with the status of the university?

And I'm waiting to see your answer as to whether it was State funded.

So you have concluded even before the University starts. Typical religious bigot
The governor explicitly made mention of Islamic education.

kkkp:
the likes of covenant University is what? A hindu universityhuh
Covenant University is a conventional university owned by Christians.

That does not connote a Christian university.

Nor was Covenant founded or funded by the State.

paulolee:
owkay....bt whats the meaning of "they gat to change tactics"
and also whats the meaning of "they do throw body up high the field and leave spaces open which make them concede more..
my point is dt he shud be careful with d media wen granting interviews bcoz d media knowa how to create problem wen they is none..
You should as the blogger who wrote it. He never said so - - what he did say was:

‘Yeah, of course it’s fair,’ Abraham told Stadium Astro when asked if it’s fair that Chelsea may need to change their style.

‘We know that ourselves, we throw so many bodies forward.

‘We’re very vulnerable when we lose the ball higher up the pitch and that’s something we need to improve on.

We’re still a young, learning team. ‘If we want to be the best, if we want to win titles and leagues that’s something we’ll have to manage.’


Essentially, saying that as players they need to learn how to adapt to the tactics.

stupid player because u dnt criticize ur manager tactics openly no matter how wrong ur coach is .
he should be lucky because its not that ruthless mourinho because he would spend d rest of his new contract on his bench and endup begging for loan to play in division 2 syd.
lampard looks too soft for a manager and tammy may get away with this, after all costa dt was more better and more decisive in matches bk den in chelsea didnt say such words openly about his personal beef with conte before he was bundled out of d team...
He never criticized the tactics.

So, that No1 didn't tell you anything about Yorubas?

Now, maybe you are not a student of History. As such, I'll pardon your ignorance.
Benin was coined from " Ile Ibinu"
People missed the word and it became Benin.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Benin
Yes, I expected that you would come back and say this. As I said, you are the one in need of a history lesson. Here goes:

1. Land of Benin was always known as igodomigodo

2. A prince from Ife visited and settled in igodomigodo for a short while

3. He left in anger naming it ile ibinu

You are yet to show how ile ibinu connects to your point that Edo is part of Yoruba land.

I honestly dont expect a logical response from you.

1. What is King in Benin?
2. What was the real name of Benin before it was coined into Benin?
1. Oba
2. Igodomigodo

So?

Please let's stay on topic. We are not talking of me. The murdered guy in question, what was his alleged offence? It is very simple question.
It is obvious that probably no one here can answer that for you. The story says he was picked from a naming ceremony. Before the law he was innocent until proven so. What is your basis for insisting that he did something? Do you have information on his activities?

It is also obvious that it really does not matter what the boy may have done. Does it?

Take your time and read with understanding. What you said is a crime that will still lead you to the same shame.

What sensible people do is save exculpatory records of text and phone conversations.

Before I have sex with anybody I make sure there's a camera in the room.

"All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable.
All things are lawful, but not all things edify.
"
- 1 Corinthians 10:23

Not every publicly shared sinful past is good or OK for congregational consumption. Maybe privately, you can tell about it, as of when its appropriate, well judged and suitable to do so
Paul spoke in detail of his past transgressions.

If you think there is something wrong with pastors doing so, then come with scriptures not strong opinions.
