Nnamdipapa:
Your illusion is now my truth? Its truth because you have to listen to the same sermon, from the same books, three times a week for the past 20years? That is a classic definition of brainwashing my friend znd, I am no longer a part of that.
When you visit hospitals or court, you will understand that the Law of God is not only protective but also flourishing.
EducationRe: FG Pegs Tertiary Institution Admission Age At 16 by tarboshi(m): 3:04pm On Jul 08, 2025
commoditiesnig:
As people rightly commented, 16yrs is too young for Uni. The least should be 18yrs

Let the young school leaver acquire skills and maturity for 1/2yrs before entering university.

Upon finishing WAEC, I worked for upto a year, acquired skill before entering University at 18yrs.. Those experience have helped to shape me till date.

I'll ensure my kids take same route.. Get adequate skills before hopping into Uni
Academics is skills. If you can acquire advanced academic knowledge at 12, you are already skilled. People are bagging PhD in their early twenties in developed nations.

PoliticsRe: Saro-Wiwa’s Family Reacts To National Honour, Pardon From Tinubu by tarboshi(m): 5:35pm On Jun 14, 2025
Did Ken Saro Wiwa actually committed an offence? If YES, the he needs PARDON and FORGIVENESS.

However, if he was unjustly executed, the he deserves APOLOGY from the government not pardon.

EducationRe: FG Seeks Reversal Of Mother Tongue Policy In Primary Schools by tarboshi(m): 2:31pm On Feb 10, 2025
Nwaikpe:
The problem is when people in power shift the standards to fit into their weakness.

As far as it is a Hausa person as the minister of education, instead of them working on making the system better, they will focus on bringing down the system to make sure their people's weakness becomes insignificant.

You make your traditional language a medium of instruction if the language is developed enough to fit into reality or if it is flexible enough to fit.

Now, translate these for me in Hausa, Igbo, or Yoruba:

1. Mitochondria
2. Mechanics
3. Atom
4. Differentiation


Major languages like Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, etc. are struggling hard, spending much to learn English, but Nigeria is trying hard to reducce their level of English to meet the level of English Hausa people speak.

Unam ikot
Calm down!
None if these words you listed originated from English language. They are derived from Greek and Latin
What makes you believe Hausa cannot derived its equivalents from the same origin?

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Will Be Superpower In Military Equipment Production In Few Years – CDS by tarboshi(m): 12:32pm On Jan 25, 2025
Not news. Biafra produced their own weapon way back in 1967-70. If that research and development was sustained, Nigeria will be exporting hi-tech weapons by now.

Cost of data and calls are decreasing globally, In Nigeria, the reverse is the case.
If the government is really sincere with thier cashless drive, then this is not the way to go.

By December, these companies will be declaring trillions as profits, off Nigerians sweat.

Igbos always voted PDP even if it's Satan until 2023, when an Igbo man wanted to be president.
Igbos have consistently voted better presidential candidates who incidentally were in PDP. Abi you wanted them to vote Buhari over Jonathan or Buhari over Yaradua?
