Topmaike007: Yoruba will prefer there own son than any outsider know that and know peace... Osun election is between there two sons and there people chose.
So 2023 is between there son and an Igbo man and Hausa man..so you get it now
Lol. I am Yoruba and I know more than a handful like me who don't give two craps about shared ethnicity. For equity, an easterner is next..of all three major contenders the easterner is the least evil of the three. I know he ain't perfect, but def stiil far better than an Atiku or a Tinubu. This your ticket don cut abeg.
etrange: This is just sarcasm and a campaign against flexible gender identity. But let's talk about it since it's an interesting topic with a lot of gray areas.
There's a difference between race, ethnicity and nationality. Race is about your phenotype or physical appearance (skin color most of the time). Ethnicity is about culture, traditions or heritage. Nationality is the status of belonging to a particular country. Nationality can easily be changed as we all know. Also, you can adopt the ethnicity of where you were born or where you grew up even though you don't typically look like people of that region. If I look white cause my father is white and my mother is mixed (my grandfather is Yoruba), it doesn't stop me from adopting Yoruba as my ethnicity if I identify with thier lifestyle. Race is mostly physical and sometimes, not immediately obvious. When your race isn't immediately obvious (maybe cause you have parents from different races) you can identify as mixed or as your preferred race (though your kids may not necessarily look the part). However, when your 100%, then it'll take some life threatening surgery to change that. Unlike nationality, race shouldn't be restrictive. There shouldn't be anything like "show you're white before you enter here". This implies that you can go about calling yourself any race and that's your business.
This difference between ethnicity and race suggest that our behavior and our looks define two different things. Our behavior is more in tune with our ethnicity while out looks define our race. If this is about her personality, it is her ethnicity that is in contention, not her race. And yes that can be changed as its not restrictive in the US. The characteristics you have as someone from a certain ethnicity are mostly as a result of the culture in which you grew up. There aren't congenital, they are acquired. This is unlike gender which is defined by BOTH physical and behavioral attributes. And again, in the case of gender, these attributes are inborn. Therefore, people who transgender don't do so on the basis of acquired characteristics since those can be changed. Instead, they do so on the basis attributes that weren't learned. Also, gender is restrictive. You can't enter certain places as a man regardless of how you identify yourself. This is why people transgender.
We all know someone or some people who walk, talk, and do everything like a woman even though they are men. Most of these people have been like that since they were born and they can't bring themselves to do anything like men cause thier brains aren't wired that way. We mock them as they struggle to fit in, we stay away from them as we consider them embarrassing. Some of them grow thick skin and move on to achieve something in life. Others become broken beyond repair. When people switch genders, they do it to save themselves and not to please or displease anyone. They do it to have a life. It is a matter of survival. A psychologists can't talk anyone into becoming manly since it's a hormonal thing.
In terms of morality, there's really no difference between enlarging one's breasts, working on nose or hairline, doing anti-aging surgery and doing surgery to alter one's gender. All these alter the features you were born with. You only draw the line where you feel you'd never need to cross, but don't expect others to adopt your line as a standard. If a trans person isn't hurting me, it's not my business to campaign against them.
Happy Sunday!
the damage the LGBTQ community will cause ehn, we'll all be alive to witness it. Just this morning I saw a short vid (just 1min long) and I just laughed, but it is not funny as it is a pointer to what is to come. https://www.facebook.com/HuffPost/videos/419153690161330/?mibextid=SPoPTSVtTECNhSoR In the delusional Professors' words, transphobic isn't the act of campaigning against them, simply ignoring them counts as transphobic. She was talking about how transpeople kill themselves because they are not loved. Like other people also don't commit suicide for a variety of reasons. Beyond achieving legal status for their purely mental sickness, it will get to a point maybe they will mandate people to have at least one lgbtqrstmap friend or family member so the special sickos don't commit suicide, to remain in the USA, cos everything point to that they want to force their way into society, friendships, relationships everything...A basic question about men and pregnancies is now transphobic in 2022! and una still dey speak English. Mark my words, children will be fair game legally soon. Just wait and see...not that it would bother these mentally unwell folks anyway. They will normalize and rationalize it, as with everything else. What am I saying sef, children already are fair game, evident with how they keep filling their head with delusion and nonsense from a very early age thru direct canvassing and the entertainment media. In 5 to 10 years those children's will grow and contribute to the numbers of these sickos in shocking proportion. We will all see it. Just wait
brightest5050: Congratulations, I followed your previous thread closely. I really do admire your determination and strong will.
But 4.1 million that was approximately the amount spent is way too high for that Corolla not to even talk of the risk/adventure.
The total amount you sent would have gotten you 2013 camry (a very sharp Nigeria use) or you could have saved up and buy Tok. I think stereotype of corolla influenced your choice of car and decision
I swear I was just saying the same thing to my wife. It will get a super clean less than a year used 2013 Camry easy with a little looking around. I can't believe someone spent a total of 4 million naira on a 2005 corolla!!!! Na him money sha. Congrats! Remember to insure it

sisisioge: You dont seem to get it....there is an existing law protecting minors from adult predators. That isnt about to change because some looonies say so...
Now if there arent any laws existing prior to them coming up with the craze, it might have flew
As for the trans racial, you know there is no existing laws protecting the white from the black, right? It should actually sail through but the wounds from centuries ago are still pretty fresh....the system is not ready for it. Thus the reason it wont fly.....at least not anytime soon.
On this MAP, your point is valid, but there is a simple way around it. Reduce the age of consent! Most are gearing up to do this underg. You know age of consent varies per state even in the US, and also per country. That will be how this will play out. I bet you. On transracials, I also don't think the 'white man' will want that, but hey, fingers crossed.
sisisioge: Yes there is a movement but it is not officially recognized. Just bunch of looonies asking to allow them freedom to love babies sexually. Awon werey.
If you check the patterns of those ratified so far, it must be proven beyond reasonable doubt that allowing the movement to thrive will not hurt anyone or threaten the laws of the land. While this proposed new craze should have a sail through, it will open the several decades wounds of white vs black tussle. The world isnt ready to relive that again.
sisisioge that woman in the interview was lying thru her teeth. Look up Candace Owen's expose on what these freaks did in pride month. They took their campaign to children school, as in like classes with 3 and 4 year old educating them about their 'options' while almost nude. And she says they draw the line at children. They are going after the children actively these days. The amount of these sickos you'd find in society 5-10years from now will be shocking.
I am sure a non- Royal can't 'feel' like a royal with claims to the throne.
Well, you have a point with royalty claims sha. Like the poster said, this madness will likely still be the prerogative of what the 'white masters' will allow. So that may not happen, even this identifying as white dem fit no allow am happen, but with these ppl, na to keep your fingers crossed. Who ever imagine 20 years ago that bobrisky and Bruce Caitlyn Jenner would be a thing? Next thing Caitlyn Jenner wins woman of the year same year she transgendered, person wey never even menstruate before became woman of the year. The madness thick gan.
DKM123: I swear, Nigerians are annoying AF! If Aregbesola was a good man, wouldn't he be met with excitement by the guy recording him. The guy will even volunteer to pay for his meal. Imagine if it was the late Mandela that was eating there. People will climb ontop themselves to have the rare privilege of paying for his order.
Our evul leaders ought to be stoned anywhere they are seen but all this guy did was do a mere video. LoL.
GOLDEN. You are one of the very few people on this thread that have sense. I couldn't have put it more succinctly.
CHoccolaTE: One reason I think they have been given so much power is because of the money big pharma (major multinational companies) make from their hormones sales to trans and medical care given to those who physically transition. Trans hormone therapy costs quite abit if used for a few years.
I can't think of any other reason why this madness has become so accepted in the many western countries. Maybe too much liberal thinking led to this. I don't know.
Trans people don't even pose so much of a threat to biological men as much as they do to women. Women are really going through hell in US and Europe because of transgenderism. Transwomen act like psychotic entitled lunatics and demand that they must be allowed access to women's prisons and women's hostels and women's shelters and in a lot of cases, they sue to get their way. Some prisons allow dangerous convicted male prisoners to stay in female prisons just because they identify as women. Women's shelters and public bathrooms have become free for all, any man can easily wear a wig and dress and walk into them, There have been many cases of sexual assault and sexual harassment by these men who were granted access to women's private spaces against the biological women there.
Or is their claiming to be lesbians and demanding that actual lesbians date and sleep with them if not they are trans phobic?
Or their forcing their way into women's sports (Mia Thomas, Fallon fox etc) that went into women's sports and had a clearly unfair advantage over the women they were competing against.
Or their language that erases women and reduces women to body parts and body functions eg uterus havers instead of women, menstruating people instead of women, birthing bodies instead of mothers, non-men, birthing parent, chest-feeders, womb owners etc. That's why I see women who support them as airheads and idiots. And unfortunately, many women still support them and validate their madness inspite of the crap they dish to women on a daily basis.
you have articulated it so beautifully. One of the women you referenced is displaying airhead attributes on this thread. To think she considers this some form of advancement of mankind and society. Awon eyan to po ti ya were o!
In an age where you are called whatever you 'feel', I would like to see how this pans out in the nearest future.
'Woke culture' is killing western nations especially America and they just don't know it yet.
Just imagine an Ibadan man with tribal marks wakes up one day and asked to be officially identified as a Fulani man just because he feels he is Fulani from within.. lol
Stupid people.
I love this too. Let all sorts of behaviours be normalized. Time will tell just how mad the world will get. Like you said Countversailles, on the other thread, gender fluid is a thing, race fluid should also be a thing, infact cross-species fluid should be a thing na so we go dey become enlightened, refined and advanced. There should be no limit or definition to 'what is' everything can be anything. I hope more transracials spring up, I'm eager to see what the world will be like with these nutcases in 20 years...only I don't think the whites will accept that. Most likely they will allow anyone to be anything you are not, but not white, when you are not. Go girl! you are white tru tru...lol
WibusJaga: But no be lie, our leaders & politicians are dream killers. How else do you explain a young man with lofty dreams & high hopes of being a doctor only to graduate & end up as a conductor or at best a native doctor?
lol close enough. At least 'ductor' and 'doctor' are present in conductor and native doctor. Lol
Trash talk from Abike, and whoever the other person is. Kemi Badenoch spoke truth to power! She did not malign Nigeria, rather she maligned the Nigerian political class, stating clearly how she has no desire to be anything like them. She is basically saying she hopes to be in UK everything that is NOT a Nigerian politician. Her statement is quite clear, I don't understand why it is being understood out of context
samuel051: Better flex ur money than giving it to that scammer that almost pulled a fast one here on nairaland. He is a notorious scammer and fraudster like myself. Just beware. The link below is to the thread he almost pulled a perfect scam but was bursted,he is here claiming saint because someone came out clean on needing help. Just the typical Nigerian mentality.
correct guy. There was something off-putting about his post that sent off sparks that he isn't an upstanding guy as he is touting himself to be. See judgement on top 'phantom' 5k.
uniquetechng: A performing president wont have the need to travel that often as he will be occupied with finding ways to solve the many problems facing his nation, he would rather send his vice or ministers to represent him.
Authoreety: Sisi Yewande writing common entrance at seven? Lawd!
Friends have you all now seen that this guy is a big fraud and liar? Imagine the senselessness in this post
While it is a fact that the person you quoted is a sorry excuse for a human being, I also wrote common entrance at age 7 back in the day. I was so small in secondary school my shorts looked like trousers.. just saying
In a new and interesting development, Mr. Ike Ekweremadu now has a case to answer in the UK as he has been charged for trafficking and organ harvesting alongside his wife. Great times!
Modified As it turns out, INEC has NOT extended the voters registration by another 60 days. Please endeavour to get registered so we can proudly 'waste our votes'. We are higher humans and proudly so, as we don't sell our votes or conscience. We typically make bold and sensible decisions and thankfully we have ONE VOTE each. Let's use it to win our nation back #wasteourvote
Obiano, the past governor, shared how he was able to build the international airport with funds that PO left. Haters can go an look that up.. then come back to critique that
PoliteActivist: Even see his name, OKOROAWUSA Same IPOB that is threatening fire and brimstone on anyone who dares vote!
Stop being utterly deceitful. This is not a "man airing his views". This is an evil man who has been maligning and doing all he can to tarnish Obi and shameless enough to have it on record that it is BECAUSE HE DID NOT GIVE HIM MONEY!! How low can a person be?!
Meanwhile his closet is full of skeletons, including this poor woman's daughter, and accusations of murder, and wanton philandering, and fathering of babies. This is NOT a nice person. The woman said it outright: the man is EVIL incarnate!
why bother engaging someone who calls a swine like Mbaka a revered man of God? Anyone who knows God even in the faintest of ways can tell easily that Mbaka is no man of God, but rather a pathetic excuse for a man
Buddha3: It is illegal to own a hand pistol of any kind in Nigeria.
You can possess a licensed shotgun from the age of 18 but that's the limit to what weaponry you're allowed for self-defence in the Nigerian law.
In your bid to garner online attention, please be properly informed so you don't end up on the wrong side of the law. If she's arrested tomorrow for wrongful possession of illegal arms, people will begin to foam from the mouth and lend it tribal undertones.
this is correct. However, she may be one step ahead by claiming to be on a movie set. Sometimes they use real guns as props, I think I have seen something like that in the making of a Nigerian movie, and if not in NIgeria, elsewhere. She could claim she took that pics just about anywhere. Point is like you said, make una no copy am o, even if you get glock don't showcase it o
I wish so too. Twould be an easy win. That way all these structure mongers whom the same structures have turned their brains upside down can sit with their mouths agape
beeoohtee: MAF sensor is perfectly working based on my diagnostic. The air filter and hoses are void of cracks
maybe it 's the evap canister then. I saw it on the same civic I mentioned earlier in the thread. I was already looking for the evap canister to replace, but I was hesitant due to the cost then. I decided to just buy a new air flow meter and change that since it was easy and cheap. Whether it was just per chance o, I don't know, but it cleared the code. The code was 'small' leak though.
no no no. Hardex is a no no. Pls switch to Mobil 5w30 if you can't afford synthetic 5w20. The Mobil with the black cap. That hardex even the original isn't highly rated, now further compounded by the fact that the fakes are everywhere
beeoohtee: I wanna appreciate everyone for their contributions The fuel economy has improved slightly by 20%. Highway drive fuel economy with AC is now estimated as 21MPG
Maintenance Update 1. ECT radiator sensor has been replaced 2. Thermostat has been installed.
glad to be able to help. It will get even better, esp with the ECT cold start issue out of the way. What engine oil do you use?
Secondly, that evap leak code isn't solely a fuel cap issue. Check to make sure airflow meter is still working well. Also look at the rubber and hoses rom the air filter for cracks. Na either of these two, or both. What I would do is just buy one airflow meter, it's not expensive. Replace, then rescan.
