I woke up at 4am just to listen to INEC declare my preferred candidate as the winner of the presidential election. I was very happy I awakened at the right time to hear the victory declaration 10mins after. It was a culmination of a story that had began many years ago, with dedication, patience, and loyalty. Slowly but surely, Bola Tinubu plotted his way to the Presidency, despite all the obstacles over the years, including the ones put on his way by his own party and the Buhari government. 1 Like

shoboy9: Arabs came to the land that was already in disarray after the Romans had sacked the Jews and the Roman empire eventually collapsed centuries after with the rise of Christianity. As those who came before the Hebrew/Jews spent their time in that region and moved on by way of extinction or annihilation, so did the Jews, and so did the Persian empire, then Roman empire. The Arabs have occupied what was later known as Palestine, since the 7th century till the 20th century. Despite that the Ottoman empire would later dominate that region, the people still remained Arabs, meaning the Arabs outlasted the Ottoman Turks till they were shrunk back to their Turkey origins. Even till 1919, the Arabs were 90% of the population of the whole Palestine region, despite that 2 waves of Jewish migration into that region had already occurred. If the Arab were not under the control of the British, would they have allowed the Jewish refugees from Europe to come settle there? 2 Likes |

shoboy9: How can a land that the Jews committed all manner of genocide to occupy at their own time, belong to them? They killed to get the land, they did their bit, and they were killed to be displaced from the land till it shrunk into just what became knows as Judea of the Jews, which are the 2 Hebrew tribe of Benjamin and Judah. And even at that, they were still sacked from that land by the Romans. 1 Like |

Raf4: I am a Christian, and I know that it is not the Arabs that sacked the Jews from the region that the Romans already called Palestine. And the Jews who had one time occupied what later became Palestine, where not also the 1st occupiers of that land. So Britain and the world powers had no business allowing Jews who had been living in Europe for many centuries, to come to Palestine and occupy a place that was already Arab land over a 1000years ago. 1 Like 1 Share |

Only in my ignorant childhood did I ever support Israel over Palestine, or see the Arabs as terrorists without just cause. Palestine belongs to the Arabs, and while some Arabs might be terrorists, it is with just cause as before the injustice, they were not terrorist but an expanding civilization no different from the Greeks or Romans. 1 Like |

This is the military rule some kids have been clamouring for. A system of government where the Military ruler can be so confident to steal as much as possible, knowing that no news media or social media critic dare to talk about it or make any accusation. And if any member of the government dare to leak any information, it would be considered as treason punishable by death. 31 Likes |

ghettochild: Babcock is actually the last of the 3 private universities I mentioned, but certainly better than anyone I did not mention. The school that has really impressed me is Afe Babalola. Their Engineering programme is quite strong and the graduates are highly employable. But Covenant University still stands ahead of all private universities and has now established itself as a strong competitor among the elite public universities. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Industry observers attributed this to aeropolitics, noting that it was a way to force the Nigerian operator out of the route unless government intervenes, adopting the principle of reciprocity. Very sad that this has happened if indeed it is all about aeropolitics as all pointers lead to. But for the reciprocity suggestion, that is a big laughable joke. You want to stop Nigerians working in Oil and Gas, and ICT, and Medical fields in Saudi Arabia from traveling there on the Airlines that the Saudis prefer? You want to stop those who depend on religious pilgrimages to make it to heaven from going to Mecca? Abeg levels pass levels. Saudi-Arabia can do it to Nigeria, and we have no choice but to fly with the airlines their aeropolitics has designated. How many Saudis visit Nigeria or make a living in Nigeria compared to the many who are rich due to Saudi oil wealth? Even the many religious bigots who are ever willing to denigrate Muslims are not ashamed to make wealth in Saudi-Arabia or UAE or Qatar. If Palestine gets it right in the future, they will also beg to get Palestinian visa and forget about all their "uncircumcised Philistine" bigotry they had vomited against the Palestinians. 2 Likes |

The History and International Studies graduate from Ajayi Crowther University (ACU) in Oyo State set his certificates on fire. Many already suspected he is one of those who studied a discipline that is not very employable. Then a private university that has no standing in the Labour Market like Covenant, Babcock or Afe Babalola. If he has never worked a job that is relevant to the discipline since 2010 when he graduated, it is a learning opportunity not to study for the sake of university admission or to graduate anyhow for the sake of certificate. The very stupid action was burning his O'level certificate that would always be required for any other undergraduate study he choses to embark on to align his career experiences with an academic qualification. In all he has helped to eliminate himself from contention, so that other job applicants can move forward with more ease. University education is not required for selling hair wigs and extensions on Facebook or "Fashion Design" better known as tailoring, or carpentary/furniture business, or selling cosmetics or operating a barber shop or betting shop. Pursue whatever vocation that will bring you money and avoid a delay of 5 or 6 years just to obtain a useless certificate just because you want to feel among. 21 Likes 2 Shares |
