Most of the state governors are useless. You sponsor and organize mass weddings for people that aren't gainfully employed and they start giving births to children that they can't cater for.

Well your list is on point. But what was Mobil doing with a treasurer?
A treasurer is a valid top management position in Exxon Mobil. Quite a number of past treasurers became Vice President of the International Oil Company (IOC).

Check out Exxon Mobil's website and you would clearly see the career track.

Those who joined hands to foist him on others are more of the curse.
We have to change this mindset. Those who voted for him exercised their fundamental right to make a choice and I believe some of them already oppose him.

Saraki, Atiku, Ortom and Galadima are examples. You cannot blame these men or any other for their partisan decisions.

However, PMB should be solely blamed because him alone sworn to office as President with the responsibilities and benefits that come with the office.

There is an adage that says "you can find job for people but you cannot help them to their work".

Who are the southern governors to challenge the orders of the president?
Many past Presidents of this country have been challenged and defeated severally in the court of law.

This is a constitutional issue and you will be shocked by the legal fireworks that await the FG in the court.

Further to, why does Mr President want to go back to purported gazettes of the 1962 grazing route laws when the country has refused to the 1963 constitution which provides for regional autonomy?

Mr President keeps frittering away the goodwill and support he enjoys with some Southerners.

It is not necessarily true that "we prefer to fly with falsehood" as you out.

Truer words have never been spoken. The President and government of the day has displayed crass incompetence on the handling of security in this country. Unfortunately, we are overstretching our military and policemen by allowing unnecessary festering of ethnic agitations and this is largely fueled by the President's ethnic bias.

How exactly did I incite murderers here? I gave an analogy to explain why we shouldn't blame the founder of an ideology for the crimes that others chose to commit.

Those that go about carrying weapons and commiting violent crimes should be judged by their actions.

So how do you want people to understand that the damn confraternity is described as a "society devoted to a religious or a charitable cause" huh
Look at it this way. There are many so called organisations today who call themselves churches and they do everything that run contrary to what the church stands for, would you blame the founder of the original church for the condemnable activities of those ignoble organisations.

Would you blame the original manufacturer of cars because some criminals use it for committing crimes like 'one chance' and kidnapping?

Mention one fraternity on our campuses and I can dig up an evil they have commited recently
Please, kindly avail us of the crimes that the pyrates confraternity has committed 'recently'. Some of us have left school for some decades now but in our days I recall that Pyrates weren't known for violence.

Jesus Christ never banned sales of alcohol while He was on His earthly sojourn. Nigeria runs a constitutional democracy and not a theocracy.

If there are people who would like to be governed by Islamic theocracy, such people should allow the division of the country so that who don't want theocracy can go their own way.

Both PDP and APC are mere political associations. Even, if new parties are formed today the leaders of the new political parties will still be our current political leaders. In other words, we need to be more alive to the tendencies of some ethnic groups to lord it over the rest. All men who resist this agenda, regardless of political parties, should be applauded.

By now, the Southern youths should have a medium through which signatures can be collected to show support for this ban on open grazing. When our political leaders make sensible policies we need to support them.

If the northerners insist on open grazing, southern pig farmers should embrace open grazing even in the Northern parts of the country.

Make everybody kuku mad at once.

There is no way in hell your AGF can win this case in court:

1. The Southern governors did not say that people can't move freely. Yes, the freedom of movement of people enshrined in the constitution but there is no freedom of movement for cows

2. The governors did not ban the rearing of cows rather they are regulating how cows can be raised within their domains and this falls clearly within their remit.

3. Again, some Northern states have set precedences by outlawing the sale of alcoholic drinks in their states even when this runs foul of the clear provisions of our constitution.

There's cry of marginalisation in almost all the states, let restructuring start from there. May God continue to bless our dear native land of Nigeria and decimate her detractors.
Some northern states in exercise of their rights as federating units started sharia and setup Hisbah police for enforcement. Since that time millions of bottles of beer have been destroyed even when the federal laws aren't against alcohol trading. Is it not idiotic for Lawan to overlook Hisbah and their activities while condemning the actions of Governors of other states for attempting to exercise their own democratic rights.

And the CCT Chairman is not behaving like this just because he is a northerner. He is behaving like any other power drunk Nigerian would behave whether he is a northerner or southerner.

The CCT chairman's stupid action reminds me of when Olisa Metuh went to slap his son's teacher in Ibadan. I wonder how these people forget that power is transient.
Education › Re: Why Is Any Number Multiplied By Zero Equals To Zero? by teepain: 9:36pm On Jan 14, 2021
adanny01:
How do you apply commutative law of multiplication in real life?

Of course, 0x2 is 2x0.

Both 0 and 2 are factors of the multiplication but the first number is the constant and the second is the multiplier.

In division, same applies, the first number is the numerator and the second the divisor or denominator.

2x3 | 2+2+2
4÷2 | 4/2

Which of these do you think a child will grasp easier?

2x3 = 0+3+3 = 6

Or

2x3 = 2+2+2 = 6
There are no constants in multiplication, hence the position of the factors of multiplication cannot affect the product of the numbers (commutative law of multiplication)

The division of numbers does not obey the commutative law, hence the position of the numerator and denominator affects the final answer, hence 3/5 is not equal to 5/3.

Which of these do you think a child will grasp easier?

2x3 = 0+3+3 = 6

Or

2x3 = 2+2+2 = 6
A child will grab whichever you present to him or her. But the most important thing is to present the concept that can answer most questions that may arise (the original post refers.)

I have had some excellent results mentoring some young mathematicians who hated mathematics prior to my intervention.
Education › Re: Why Is Any Number Multiplied By Zero Equals To Zero? by teepain: 7:21pm On Jan 14, 2021
adanny01:
Sure

If I must reply,

3 x 7 means 3 times 7 or 3 by 7

This means we add 3 up to 7times

3+3+3+3+3+3+3=21

This is why the primary school multiplication table is arranged separately for each number

2x1=2 | 2
2x2=4 | 2+2
2x3=6 | 2+2+2
2x4=8 | 2+2+2+2

The question is how will you write

2x0 | ?

You can write

0x2 | 0+0

It is easier to explain 0x2 than 2x0

0x2 is twice of nothing
2x0 is nothing of two things

Take 2 real oranges in your hands for instance, in what scenario will you multiply them so that they turn to zero or nothing? I guess you can't except by magic.

That means the concept of zero or nothing is purely a figment of imagination and purely abstract.
Going by the commutative law of multiplication, 2x0 = 0x2

Therefore, you can read 0x2 to mean 2 times we add 0. Rearranging numbers to solve or explain mathematical concepts is an agelong and acceptable practice amongst mathematicians.

Alternatively, if you don't want to rearrange you can read 0x2 as:

0 times we add 2 to zero (using zero as the starting point of your number). Which would still give you 0.

By the same token;
2x0 can be read as 2 times we add 0 to zero:

Zero + 0 + 0 = 0

1 x 3 reads 1 time we add 3 to 0
0 + 3 = 3

2 x 3 reads 2 times we add 3 to 0:
0 + 3 + 3 = 6

0 x 3 reads 0 times we add 3 to 0:
0 = 0 (because we didn't add any 3 to 0)
Education › Re: Why Is Any Number Multiplied By Zero Equals To Zero? by teepain: 3:05pm On Jan 14, 2021
Basically, multiplication means to add a number of times.

For instance, 3x7 means 3 times 7. The 3 times 7 actually means 3 times (we add) 7.

Hence, 7x3 = 7 + 7 + 7 = 21.

In the same vein, 5 x 0, means 5 times we add 0 or add 0 in 5 places.

Hence, 5 x 0 = 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0

Because of the commutative law of multiplication, which states that the order in which a set of numbers are multiplied does not affect their product,

5 x 0 = 0 x 5

Therefore, regardless of the order you will have zero as your answer if you multiplied any number by zero.

And more particularly, he lost to his uncouth manners. Quite a number of Republicans voted against him. In Arizona for instance, the last time Democrats won there was during Bill Clinton's time. Reason he lost was because he messed up with Senator McCain and the McCain's supporters decided to mess him up. He messed up General Collin Powell too and some others too numerous to mention.

See in politics, there will always be recycling and even if you will put new people, they most often always turn out to be the same ruling class, either their friends, brothers or son and etc.

See USA for instance:
—You have George H.W Bush, George W. Bush and Jeb Bush.
—You have Biden, who was senator before, a VP, now a president elect.
—You have Hilary Clinton, wife of former president and a democrat presidential candidate.
—In New York, you have Andrew Cuomo the Governor, his father Mario Cuomo was former governor of New York too.

USA elected a president who is 78 years old and yet you think the problem of Nigeria is because we don’t have youths in government?

I just hate that statement that “Youth Youth”, when exactly did leadership has anything to do with age?
Beautiful response. I tell people that there was never a time that all the the presently "old" people held a meeting and decided that all of them would be bad leaders. Some of the old people today actually started politics as young men, Tinubu, Orji Uzor Kalu, Saraki and a lot of other politicians started as young men in their thirties.

There are bad old men as well terrible young men who shouldn't be anywhere near leadership. Electing a young person does not guarantee that he or she would perform well.

My parents and a lot of our parents weren't part of the old people who destroyed Nigeria, therefore it would be wrong for us to classify all old people as bad or being responsible for the mess find ourselves in. Some of these old people have been fighting for a better Nigeria since God knows when and some.of them that are still alive are still in the trenches.

It was never this massive because those other times there wasn't any outbreaks that warranted lockdown occasioned by covid-i9.

Trump discouraged his followers from using mail-ins while Biden encouraged his own followers, so the result shouldn't surprise him.

Trump's handling of the Corona virus and his constant attacks on some war veterans such as Senator McCain of blessed memory, Collin Powell (both respected Republicans) contributed to Trump's defeat. Trump's loss in Arizona is partly because of his lack of tact in dealing with the McCains.

What you have written here appears to have been done out of mischief and an intention to cause unnecessary panic among the customers of the bank!

Fine the bank had a network challenge that lasted for days. Now let me ask you these questions:

Was it only your account that was affected by the outage which happened bankwide?

If there is a general network problem which affects all account holders how then would it be possible for Yahoo-Yahoo boys to access your account and steal money?

How does being able to log into your account prevent your money from being stolen?

The best way to keep your account safe is by ensuring that your account details do not fall into the wrong hands!

Keystone Bank is a business which employs and puts food on people's table, therefore I do not understand what you hope to gain my maligning the bank in a public forum with falsehood.

If this rubbish you have written creates a run on the bank and people loose their jobs will you give them new jobs in this post Covid-19 era where jobs are very difficult to come by.

I am not in any way supporting poor service but I can tell you that if a bank had a system failure for two whole days then the cause is something very serious and someone in the bank likely will loose his job or promotion as a result.

Social media is a good invention but as times go on it becomes obvious that a lot of people lack the temperament to use it in a responsible way!
You don't understand the pains that the depositors of this stupid keystone bank are going through right now.

The bank claims to be upgrading it's IT infrastructures leading to the customers' inability to withdraw their funds for about 6 days now.

I know of someone whose wife is critically ill and the doctors handling her have insisted on "no money no surgery". Sadly, this guy banks with keystone and hasn't had access to his own money! He is now running around for financial support.

If the bank runs down and people lose their job, it would be sad but it won't be as a result of what the guy you quoted said. It would be due to the irresponsibility of the bank called keystone.

Their actions are already crippling some other businesses whose funds are trapped with them. What would you say about those businesses closing shops and laying off their employees!?
