Politics › Re: Edo Refinery Laments NNPCl’s Failure To Supply Crude Oil For Production by SSpeter(m): 5:52am On Aug 12, 2024 |
wirinet: We should not be a member of OPEC in the first place. It's stupid logic to be exporting our crude when we produce only 1.2 million barrels per day, out of which we have only about 300,000 barrels at our disposal after setting financial obligations,and then importing over 1million barrels per day of crude from abroad with all the attendant higher costs to run our refineries including Dangote 650 000 barrels per day mega refinery.
USA produces 13 million barrels of crude per day, they are not a member of OPEC, Russia produces over 10 million barrels of crude per day, they are not member of OPEC, even Norway produces close to 2 million barrels per day, they are not exporting their crude. We that is barely producing 1 million barrels, 60% of which is our share, we pride ourselves as OPEC number. Without the Open Cabal crude oil will trade at 30USD and countries like Nigeria will run out of business. There will be over supply |

I served when NYSC was 19.8k, back then a bag of rice was 5.5k, I had extra money left from my 19.8k, infact i could remember bailing a friend with10k back then, life was easy. Returning to Lagos after my service in the Eastern region was 1k, I boarded just after Onitsha head bridge. Life was fun 😊 compared with what is obtainable today. |

musicwriter: Once you realize that colonialism is still ongoing but is now called neo-colonialism, you won't have any problem understanding why we no longer have enough crude oil for ourselves as soon as the Dangote refinery and the others began production.
The world is set up to work that way, in fact, the late two times British prime minister, Winston Churchill, boasted that "that's the way the world should work and will work"
Unfortunately, as long as we speak a foreign language and acquire our knowledge with it, those who gave us language and education will continue to manipulate us. The manipulation and exploitation comes from the fact that we trust that everything we've learned is true and is how things should work. That's why we've been easily railroaded into not having crude oil as soon as we got working refineries.
Once we use our own language to acquire our own language and believe in our God, they'll lose control over our minds. We'll become truly independent and all types of manipulation and exploitation will end. The most stupid write up I have come across this week. |

Botragelad: Do people actually give credence to what these individuals say? How laughable!
Marriage is intended to be a partnership, distinct from the ownership and control inherent in slavery, I believe. Yet, individuals like this perpetuate sexist ideologies that blur these lines.
If someone finds themselves in a volatile and abusive relationship, where they feel 'owned' or controlled by their spouse, how can they possibly escape? Does he not comprehend the fundamental human rights that are violated by 'owning' another person? Marriage is not a partnership the two people involved do not have equal rights |

Secondly, Turkey is struggling with unemployment and unstable economy and unstable currency just like Naira. Turkish Lira is a highly unstable currency. Going to Turkey with the hope of securing a job as a migrant is a big mistake for any Nigerian. You can only go to Turkey to shop, buy textile and fashion items to use or resell, not to live permanently and work for a living because there are no jobs in Turkey for most citizens of Turkey talk more of migrants abi immigrants.

Since the advancement of Technology from the mid 2000s we no longer hear Igbo riots why? Because the other Southern and Northern Christian tribes can now be differentiated. In the past the Jos killings and Southern Kaduna killing of Christians would have been an Igbo battle but now things are clearer and the Igbos can now communicate among themselves in real time. |

It is either you are Muslim or Death. The Igbo tribe being predominantly Christian will form the biggest resistance and accommodate other minority Christian tribes who are usually the biggest victim because they do not have a structure of resistance or information.

Crime › Family Of A Nigerian Man Killed In The US Seeks Help by SSpeter(op): 7:46pm On Jun 21, 2024 |
INDIANAPOLIS — The family of a delivery driver killed on the job on Indy’s north side is pleading for help solving the deadly shooting. Witnesses say the victim had dropped off some diapers at a home on 42nd Street while working for a delivery service called GoPuff. The victim then walked back to his car when he was shot and killed. The man was found by officers lying next to his parked car on East 42nd Street, on Saturday night just before midnight. “Somebody from nowhere shot him for no reason, for no just cause,” said the victim’s pastor Olushegun Akinniranye. “It’s so disturbing and embarrassing that that can happen.” 53-year-old Adesina Aderinwoye died after being taken to the hospital. Adesina Aderinwoye (photo provided) The victim had moved to Indiana from Nigeria and had taken a job delivering basic household items for GoPuff. “This guy doesn’t cause trouble,” said Akinniranye. “He was going about his duty as a delivery driver.” The fatal shooting took place right across the street from Saint Joan of Arc Catholic School, on a normally quiet section of East 42nd Street near Central Avenue. Because the victim had no criminal history and didn’t cause any trouble, his friends and family don’t understand why someone would kill him. “You know I was so shocked because my brother doesn’t fight with anybody. He doesn’t smoke. He doesn’t drink. He doesn’t do anything bad,” said the victim’s brother Adenekuni Aderinwoye. “He is so loved by everybody,” said Akinniranye. “People loved him. He’s a jovial man.” Aside from hearing the gunshots Saturday night, neighbors didn’t see who committed the crime or why. Whatever the reason for the violence, Aderinwoye leaves behind a large family who want his killer held accountable. “So what we are asking for is justice for this man who was killed just like that without any reason,” said Akinniranye. “I need justice. I don’t want somebody to kill him without anybody noticing. I need justice for him please,” said Aderinwoye. Police did not have any details on a suspect to release and no arrests have been made. Anyone with information about this incident should call Detective Swails at the IMPD Homicide Office at 317.327.3475 or e-mail the detective at Douglas.Swails@indy.gov. Alternatively, they can call Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana at 317.262.8477 or (TIPS) to remain anonymous. https://fox59.com/news/indycrime/family-of-indy-delivery-driver-killed-on-the-job-seeks-help-solving-deadly-shooting/amp/ |
Politics › Jihadis From Africa’s Sahel Have Crossed Into Nigeria’s North, A New Report Says by SSpeter(op): 7:34am On Jun 20, 2024 |
Jihadi fighters who had long operated in Africa’s volatile Sahel region have settled in northwestern Nigeria after crossing from neighboring Benin, a report said Wednesday, the latest trend in the militants’ movements to wealthier West African coastal nations. The extremists believed to be linked to al-Qaida have in the last year crossed over from Benin’s hard-hit northern region and settled in Kainji Lake National Park, one of Nigeria’s largest, where other armed groups have also gained access, according to the report by the Clingendael Institute think tank, which has done extensive research in the Sahel. Residents close to the park told The Associated Press that the facility, which holds one of West Africa’s fast-declining lion populations, has been closed for more than a year because of security threats from armed groups attacking neighboring villages and roads. "Before, it was like a tourism center (but) now, people find it difficult to pass through there,” said John Yerima, who lives near the park in New Bussa town. “You cannot enter that road (leading to the park) now. It is dangerous, seriously.” https://apnews.com/article/nigeria-sahel-africa-jihadi-extremism-benin-cd845a1a320e6083688408afc923381f |
Islam › Re: At Least 550 Muslims Die At Hajj - As Temperatures At Mecca Hit 51.8C by SSpeter(op): 7:15am On Jun 20, 2024 |
SSpeter: At least 550 people have died during the Hajj pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca in the scorching heat, it has been reported.
Temperatures reached at least 51.8C (125F) in the shade in the Saudi Arabian city, as huge crowds of Muslims undertook the annual religious journey - one of the five pillars of Islam.
"Hajj is a difficult task, so you have to exert efforts and perform the rituals even in the conditions of heat and crowding," an Egyptian pilgrim said.
Pilgrims used umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun, as Saudi authorities warned pilgrims to stay hydrated and avoid being outdoors during the hottest hours between 11am and 3pm.
Stampedes, tent fires and other accidents have caused hundreds of deaths during the Hajj in the past 30 years. Some 240 people reportedly died last year.
This year's pilgrimage began on Friday and as usual coincided with the religious holiday, Eid al-Adha.
Dozens of deaths have been reported during this year's Hajj, with the AFP news agency putting the total at 550, citing diplomats.
Some 323 of the dead were Egyptians, most of whom perished due to heat related illness, AFP said.
A 2024 study by the Journal of Travel and Medicine found that rising global temperatures may outpace strategies to deal with the heat. A 2019 study by Geophysical Research Letters said that as temperatures rise in arid Saudi Arabia due to climate change, pilgrims performing Hajj will face "extreme danger".
A Saudi health official, speaking on Monday before many of the reports of deaths were issued, said authorities had not noticed any unusual fatalities among Muslim pilgrims amid the extremely high temperatures.
The ministry had so far treated more than 2,700 pilgrims who suffered from heat-related illness, he added.
