Lack of foresight, begets chaos. The premise this nation has built upon would never allow it, to move forward ever. Forced unity can only last for so long.
Biafrans (as they refer themselves) were forced into staying Nigerians after their first attempt of seceding. The first trial is all that's needed to sow a seed that will continue to bear fruits season in and season out. No matter how long Nigeria lasts, unborn generations from the SE will continue to be a pain to the Nigerian establishment. They will and can never be satisfied with Nigeria, someone will always try to avenge the deaths of his/her kinsmen whenever they feel they are being suppressed, in our time or the future. Massob, and as of recent Ipob headed by Nnamdi Kanu are testament to my account.

Nigeria needs to let go of Biafra, and a possible result is the total disintegration of Nigeria as we know it, which is fine, it is not a do or die affair like many take it to be. We can all separate and focus on developing distinctly.

I'm Yoruba, If Biafra wants to go, I say the Nigerian Government let her go, so that the important things in life all Humans regardless of race, religion, tribe long for have can be achieved.

SenseiX:
So Jagaban is actually a community college alumni , no wonder he's so street.
Community colleges are like vocational training schools for dropouts and never do wells who couldn't finish High school and whose highest qualification is a GED. Nigerian Polytechnics are even better.
Doesn't change the fact he is an effective politician albeit a very corrupt one at that.
Just Saying

Nigga why you always lying. community college is not a Vocational training school! Community colleges are two year colleges for students to attain an associate degree first before transferring to a 4yr college for a bachelors degree. Many occupation such registered A.S Nursing, Dental Hygiene only require 2 years and Engineering, B.S Nursing and Pre-Med/Dent/pharm/PA majors all continue at 4 year colleges.

vocational school Would be mechanic school an Electrical school, Carpentry school. non of those are offered as degrees in Community colleges.
and GED is a way for people who didn't attain High school diploma to get back into the schooling system a second chance in a way.

bull, two of those pics are 3d models of structures that's rare in Nigeria......what do these people gain from lies.

preciousMI1:
your opinion your concern

true, and it doesn't mean my opinion on your mentality is necessarily incorrect either.

4reala:
u 4get dat beautiful saying "spare d rod and spoil d child"

neither I've i heard, let everyone join in flogging your child, cuz you know you can't have them spoilt.

Valeree:
lol... and what about those that said the kid would grow up to murder the parents. as in... what da heck!

I swear, maybe it is the hotness of Nigeria's climate that's affecting so many's reasoning abilities.

If anything it builds a chain of violence, teacher beats student, senior students takes out frustration on the Juniors and so on

preciousMI1:
I studied education not by mistake but by choice... reinforcement is necessary... I'll flog ur son if he breaks d rule else u take him and home school....

New generation parents

so in education, you were taught flogging reinforces what the students learn in class huh?
you see how dumb that sounds don't you?

4reala:
Just buy all the teaching materials and teach ur children at home. Yeye de smell

the school is paid to impact knowledge not crack the whip like it's the 1600s

CEOplexy:
If you don't allow teachers to discipline your child, you will bear the brunt in the future

you're job is to raise your own child, if the child does anything wrong at school, the school should report back home to the parents and have the Parents deal with their child the best possible way.

omusiliyu:
Is either the teachers beat your children or your children beat you.

LOL what a stupid reasoning, you can't possibly believe that.

lexzycc:
he has been chosen by the diety, there is nothing you can do about it

nigga pls, chosen by what non existing deity, his appointment was approved by a state's governor. He is not above the law, he is a mere man, many stories of fraud are stacked up against him, let him pay up or be judged accordingly.

but if you so support insolence, you are part of our Problem and Nigeria will forever be backward! unless of cuz a revolution rids us of the bastards amongst us.

alcmene:
You lots are so predictable...envy and jealousy kills faster than the otapiapia AWO drank in detention

no one is jealous or envious, an Igbo said on this thread that y'all lead which fine but then proceeded to call southwest a Waste, so let me burst your bubble. That's a museum, there's an actual place called Oyotunji, in South Carolina, south of Virginia with an Oba. mind you this is not a museum, people live there.

xrisdon:
lets assume it doesn't matter as you said, but what informed the change of name in the first place?

it would have been the war.

surugede:
Black is always the dominant over white chromosome, whenever black and white chromosome come together to produce and offspring, the offspring would be more black than white.

We welcome Sofia to the team, but Mr. Lateef sir, you sure say na ya pikin be this? Just asking.

you are spewing bull! neither is dominant over the other, we all get equal haploid chromosomes from our parents. you can never see a mixed person fully black/dark skinned or white/Asian.

a lot of people say she looks Asian, that only shows how ignorant they are, Asian do not have brown hair, Africans also do have almond shaped eyes which explains her eyes. In a nutshell she looks like any other black and white/Asian mixed girl I see on the street.

xrisdon:
I know, the question here is.... the Bight being refer as Bight of bonny presently were once known as Bight of Biafra, and the Nigeria government changed it after the civil war ......why?

I don't think it matters, it is named after the town that matters

There's a town at the very south called Bonny.

If he has the so called "diabolical" powers, he won't be lifting crates of cokes with teeth to begin with.

When he could be making serious money.

bushdoc9919:
Many US towns are named after UK towns.

Same for some Canadian towns.

eg....

York (UK).....new YORK (US).

Jersey (UK)....new Jersey (US).

Cambridge (UK).....Cambridge (Mass. US.).

London (UK).......London (Canada).

Birmingham (UK).....Birmingham (Alabama, US).

Boston (US.......Boston (Lincolnshire,UK).

Liverpool (UK).....Liverpool (New York State, US).

Greenwich, London UK......Greenwich, New York, US.

Funny, isn't it.?

Reason being that the Colonies were mostly under the control of England. New York city used to be New Amsterdam, before England took the land from the Dutch....6 north Eastern states are still referred to as New England.

AreaFada2:
I wonder o.

People just associate stabbing with UK, shooting with US.

you are right, when I saw stabbing and UK, I was sold but then I read further and I saw Delaware

exxell:
So the guy couldnt find another Igbo girl to marry? Is he aware that his children will become hybreeds? And to think he is mixing it with a Yorubasstard is even more annoying. Igbos, stop marrying from other tribes that are not Igbo. They are making you loose your unique identity.... Be full blooded Igbo... Not mixed Igbo!!

you sound like the bastard tho, and a retarded one too. you are not a marriage police, so let others do their thing while you do you, ethnocentric scum.

@ tevinsolt



I wish you could have used the bible to explain all these. I dnt follow human philosophy and theories..


The verse you quoted to explain attributes and nature does not even make mention of any of the two.

Me and my brother have the same nature, we are both humans, but we no get the same attributes. They are not used interchangeably, cus they mean different things.




You just layed out statements without using the scriptures to support them, to show us ur statements are true.

What happens to the soul when man loses consciousness, when man falls into coma. ?

What happens to the soul when man smokes correct oshogbo weed.? Does the weed affect the soul or body. For if you say the weed affects the body, then its the body that controls the consciousness and not the soul. And if you say its the soul, then its the soul that smoked the weed. And if you say its both, then it means that the soul is the body.
You can see that my analogy is also feeding the mind.

At yabaleft, they treat a mans consciousness through the use of physical things like drugs administered on the body.

You cut a mans legs off, you cut his hands of , you take his liver, you transplant his heart, you take his blood and tranfuse him with another blood . You then take all this parts and carry it from abuja to timbuktu. Where is that mans consciouness? Abuja or timbuktu? This will tell you that the brain is in charge of our mind. And the condition of that mind is mostly determined by what the body feeds it, either to pollute it or feed it with good things.

You have not answered : What is the spirit,soul and body that man is made of?.



Is man a spirit ?

You said I haven't answered your question, meaning you already have a presupposition about the matter in question....share it.

Like I said the body is a vessel made from dust. Brain is part of the body, the soul while it is linked to the body it is distinct from the physical body. There's a ME separate from me....the Me that assess my actions everyday is the soul, the me that rebuke my misdeeds is my Soul which is the seat of my will and conciousness.

What exactly are you arguing against? Of course the body controls the soul to an extent, An amputee, still has it's conciousness intact, because the amputated organ is not essential for his brain survival....it only makes sense that a body that's going to function in a physical realm like planet earth, first must be made of earth, when the earthly part which is the body dies, it degrades. getting high or drunk impairs the brain, making it hard to make meaningful decisions. According to the bible, it is appointed to die once then comes judgement. Meaning there's a second death!

Man is a spirit.
About you not following philosophy of men, that's just funny and close minded.

Richirich713:
I don't think they care wat the bible says, to them they can just pick and choose what they like and what they don't like.

You are exactly right, they obviously can't harmonize, nor discern literary style.

dolphinheart:
1. We van discuss the other 2 later, but what do you mean by omnipresence .?
2. Are you talking about attributes or nature?
3. What is the spirit,soul and body that man is made of?. How do they make up man? How can we identify each in man?

Omnipresence, means present everywhere. If truly there's a God, and he created the universe, space and time as we scientifically know it came to be simultaneously. If God is outside the dimension of space and time then he could see through it all.

"Attributes" and "Nature" are being used interchangeably in this case as synonyms.

i will paraphrase here. "and God said let us make man in our image, in our likeness.."
"And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Gen. 2:7
the body is the vessel for the soul (self consciousness, mind, will, emotions), and the spirit is linked with spirit (God-conscious, conscience) you can pollute your mind which then leads your soul to eternal damnation, or you can feed your mind the right way and have eternal life.)

"God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth." John 4:24

Jessicha:
And you think the multi - billion angels dont have the same nature with God ?

" God is a spirit " Joh 4:24

" He maketh his angels Spirit" Heb 1:7

Man is also spirit, soul and body, ur point?

Essence means the abilities, the nature. Omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence are attributes of God angels or human don't posses. Jesus and the holy spirit are those things

"In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed."

Daniel 7 vs 13-14

When Moses went on the mount, God's back was turned towards him. There is no posterior without an anterior.

Jesus did not come as God but as a servant to lay his life and an example for us to follow.

Even though I reference my parents out of respect, it doesn't mean they are made of a different essence. My father, mother and I are coequal in the Nature that we all share which is Humanity. God the father, son and Holy spirit are of the same essence.

Luckygurl:
I know of a scenario where the family of the man after his death paid the bride price of the lady he's been cohabiting with.
Their failure to do so meant the kids they had while the man was alive belonged to the ladies family....

dumb traditions everywhere. regardless the child is not owned by one but both of the parents......the child is a result of the 50/50 fusion of each party's gamete. that is the scientific fact. Culture was defined by people, it is stupid to let traditions decided by ancient men to control one's approach to life in this age where so much information is available to us to make wise and well informed judgements.

If they don't, those herdsmen won't get the chance to regret their poor miserable lives all the way up from Kwara down to Lagos.

CSTR2:
Good.
I hope it stays that way especially in very critical matters like this.

You don't have to worry yourself on that. We are more than capable to defend our homeland.

ArodewilliamsT:
The East will rather build an alliance with shekau than with sleazy yoruba. The north knows where we stand and we know where they stand. yorubas don't know where they themselves stand. It's suicide to place your political fortunes in such hands.


I think Easterners should stay away from this yoruba-fulani feud. It's their business. I support cattle ranches all over yorubaland if you ask me including inside the oba of lagos palace.

Yorubas don't care for an alliance with the Igbos nor do we care about how you feel about an alliances with you, we never asked so shut it.

CSTR2:
One of the stupiddest thing ndi-igbo can do in this decade is to create any sort of critical alliance with the SW.
These guys will betray anybody for temporary political gain.

you guys keep ranting as if we really care about this imaginary alliance, you think the SW is looking to have with the SE, come back to real life and stop wasting away in never-land.
