Jakumo:
Oga Ayo, please mark me present today for the continuation of this important topic. The stand taken by Nigeria's NDLEA against marijuana, and their attempt to equate cannabis with REAL Class A drugs like heroin or cocaine, is all about that money, specifically, the budget allocations shared by officials at the top of that organization.

The only segments of any society that profit from the prohibition of medical marijuana are drug enforcement agencies like Nigeria's NDLEA on one hand, and the criminal gangs on the other hand, that sell chemically poisoned cannabis which is indeed capable of causing madness or death.

With multi-million dollar cannabis production tax revenue accruing to African governments in Uganda, Malawi, Lesotho, Zambia, South Africa, and now even Ghana, it is only a matter of time before Nigeria ends the prohibition of cannabis so as to regulate and monetize its industry to maximize annual profit figures for both the private and public sector.

I hope it won't be too late before Nigeria finaly wakes up.

There won't be peace until there is justice and equity in this country.

These are 600 plus bandits and terrorist fed and released by this government.

Same government sent soldiers to shoot at and arrest Endsars Protesters.

What is your governor doing about it nothing. Remember the PIB the senators from the oil producing states agreed to 5% for the south while 33% was given to the north for searching for oil or something.

I'm from Oyo state and Seyi Makinde is my Governor. Is there anything Seyi can do?

There are too many injustice in the country.

I hope someone will educate me on this thread before it goes to threads' graveyard

Privatization: NNPC Should Stop Exploration of Niger Delta henceforth

NNPC's privatization should automatically result stoppage to free exploration of Niger Delter natural resources. This shuold be to ensure justice and equity in the country.

The northern Nigeria has gold and other valuable natural resources which is been explored by their state governments and bandits.

First, it was injustice sharing natural resource of the south to the whole country and now, selling of NNPC to private owners will worsen the situation as Niger Delter indigenes live in abject poverty.

I also want to advocate for regional government.

Or maybe someone should educate me...

Everybody was actually born atheist. We grow up to learn about religion. We were only indoctrinated while growing up.


Growing up, I thought I was going to become a pastor. so I started reading (I've completed the bible more that thrice) and memorize the bible very early. It was the bible itself that makes me to ask a lot of questions that led to my factory re-set. The God of the bible seem unrighteous to me, thinks and act like human.


There is nothing like a God-being in our factory re-set, there is no heaven, there is no hell. We only learn those things while growing up.

That is why almost every body believes the that God of their individual parents is the only God and that his religion is the only accepted religion.

I read about 'historical Jesus' too. And discover that all of our cherished stories are fabricated and not true.

It will surprise you to know that:

-- there is no real historical Jesus in the world true human history. Many fabricated stories....
-- there is no heaven
-- there is no hell
-- prayer doesn't get answered
-- there is no spirit
-- there is no Angel
-- there is no Satan
-- there is no life after death or after life
-- charms don't work
-- there is no karma
-- there are no witches and wizard


I believe religion makes people to be more evil than good. Many are kept under the fear of heaven and hell to do the little good they can. They are not allowed to experience the true beauty of being good, honest, diligent and being a person of integrity without the fear of hell destruction, or expectation of an heavenly reward or karma.

Why are you then asking him to step down for a younger person?

I wish he will allow a smart young person under his watch to run.

So buddy, respect his decision to contest and the overwhelming mandate given to him by APC members all over the country to fly the party’s flag.

He’s the most brilliant, innovative and experienced candidate in the race. He did excellently well as governor of Lagos state and will do very well as president. Why should he quit the race for anybody?

If you don’t like him, vote for someone else and stop this silly attempt to blackmail him out of the race. He will contest and Nigeria will decide. Thanks.

I've stated my opinion you are right to give any meaning that fit you to it.

donphilopus:
Why are you scared of seeing Tinubu's name on the ballot? Thought you guys were saying he's going nowhere?

Nobody is scared of seeing his name on the ballot. It is his human right as a Nigerian to vote and be voted for.

Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Can Become A True Hero Of Nigeria By Doing This

When the talk is about the Nigerian Politics, It goes without saying that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has contributed heavily to the political ecosystem of the country. Capping this is his undisputed victory in the recent APC primary election where he won with a very large margin compared to his other co-contestants.

While we will like Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to continue to be the political father that he is, I think he should because of his age and health status defer the presidency ambition. This is important considering the rigor involved in being a true president; I am not talking about the General Buhari's kind of administration, because, for the past 8 years, Nigeria seems to be without a president (although he is trying his best, but that is how it feels).

While He, has his right to contest for president position like every other Nigerian do. I feel Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu should allow someone younger among the APC presidential nominee to run while he serve as the president's father. I feel this is more an honorable thing for him to do and many will respect him for that.

Thanks for sharing.

It's my pleasure.

Do you mind sharing this book? I just picked up interest in clinical data science. Do you mind sharing your experience in this field? Learning paths, resources, opportunities etc.
Thanks in advance.

I generally download books from here https://z-li b.org/
(remove the space betwèn **lib**) or just search for "zlibrary" on google

Biòiñformàtic with pýthòn çookbòoķ by Tiago


Note: Do not rely on this book too much because it tries to combine R programing and python programing. Go for books based on R programming for anything Data Science in Health domain.

Learning path: first try and master everything a normal data scientist can do, then health shiuld be a later plus.

Work with enough dataset... get as may book as you can.. master biostatistic, bioinformatic, clinical trial data analysis... and many more

airsaylongcome:
Your running about saying it's about Yoruba is what make it tribalism

We should alread have outgrow all this tribalistic view of contents and beside, I don't think the word Yoruba is a censored word on this forum

If it is called "tribalism" to have passionate unbiased love for one's root (origin) according to your assumptions, then it is OK.

I don't feel any compelled to prove anything to you about what I've written.

Check my past 10 - 15 threads I created on this forum, you will find interesting content (videos nd articles) about the Yoruba that you will greatly enjoy. I just love my root, my origin.

You have the right to your opinions and views aswell.

airsaylongcome:
Are we now bringing the toxic tribalism in the politics section here?

I have thought about this also. This post speak nothing about what you said. I was just happy to show my excitement. it may be about any other Nigerian group next time.

The book was actually written by non Nigerian (in USA ) who might have not even think of coming to the country.

It is inferiority complex to think and proclaim that a tribe is better than the other.

My major aim is to show my excitement and my love for the Yoruba. And anyway, that will not be the first time I would see something of such.

IS THERE ANYTHING LIKE LAW OF KARMA

In real life, there is nothing like law of karma, but in people's imaginations, there is.

IT SHALL NEVER BE WELL WITH BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

We like to speak as if whatever we say will have effect on other people.

Me I feel I will be delusional to think my curse will have effect on other people.

Hi Ayobami,

Do you remember this photo?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BInAW_Gx1Y

I sure do.

In 2009, Carlton Philadelphia, a National Security Council staffer, brought his wife and two sons to the Oval Office for a departure photo. Carlton’s older son, Isaac, asked me a few questions about policy, but a more surprising question came from his younger brother, five-year-old Jacob.

“Is your hair like mine?” he asked.

It wasn’t the kind of question a president gets every day.

So, I bent down and told him, “Go ahead, touch it.”

He replied, “Yeah, I think that’s pretty much what I’ve got. ”

White House photographer Pete Souza captured that moment and for years the photo hung in the halls of the West Wing. It was a reminder of one of the reasons I first ran for president: that if I were to win, young people—Black kids, Hispanic kids, kids who may not have always felt like they belonged—might see more possibilities for their own future.

It’s hard to believe 13 years have passed. Today, Jacob will graduate high school and continue on to the University of Memphis to study political science. And I couldn’t be more proud of him.

We recently reconnected to reflect on that moment and his journey since then: Check out our reunion here: https://www.obama.org/updates/jacob-philadelphia/?utm_source=crm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=jacobphiladelphia_052722&sfmc_s=0033600001cYxG3AAK

Congratulations, Jacob, and best of luck to the Class of 2022.

You did really great with your dashboard.


I'll suggest you read this book " Story Telling With Data: A Data Visualization Guide For Business Professionals" to do better, because these your dashboards are nothing close to standard, Even if your color usage is of a company's color brand.


You can download the book Here:

I feel white background and shades of blacks and or shades of blues are best for visualizations. Use of Icons is a no no. Red if used, I think should be used sparingly. Pie charts are also a no no.
