Irony1:
But Tinubu and APC did worse against GEJ. A coffin was made for him, or do you want to pretend you didn't see it? Obi only criticised the government, what is happening is just APC having guilty conscience and trying to prevent people from criticising them.

Still enough justification to continue in that direction

I’ve been saying this for a while now it’s really sad that it seems some are praying for bad thunder Ayo happen so that they came come out of the sewers with all forms tone deaf criticism

Chelshit in the gutter
20 quasillion spent with nothing to show for it

Lol
Nigerian politics is just pure vibes and cruise
I’ve never taken any of them seriously

Lol that road has always been bad for Al long as I can remember
So it had to take the visit of the president to get any attention to it lol

I don’t know the type of education you can get in a third world country that Nigeria is milled ahead in every indices of education

Let’s goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Nice one

What here for us to really digest
I see a nothingburger

Stop using people’s tragedies to play politics.
It is despicable

If there’s one thing this president likes, it’s two-week deadlines.
Three and a half weeks ago, Trump said that Russia had two weeks to demonstrate a willingness to end the war in Ukraine or face new economic sanctions. He has yet to announce his decision.
A week ago, Trump said that in about two weeks the US would be sending letters out informing America’s trading partners of their new tariff levels. Back in May, he set a similar “two to three weeks” timeframe for new import duties only for the mark to pass without action.
Back in 2020, the president said he would unveil a “full and complete health care plan” in two weeks. No such plan was ever released.
It was just one of a grab bag of two-week policy deadlines Trump set and then discarded during his first presidential term - on issues ranging from infrastructure to taxes to withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord.
Trump eventually followed through on some of these – and decisions on war and peace are some of the most consequential ones a president can make. But history suggests that for Trump a two-week deadline is seldom set in stone.

how can they be easily eradicated especially that slim one?

Larvicides And total Annihilation of all breeding hubs

Commendation initiative as most Nigerians know next to nothing about credit ratings.
Meanwhile Americans buy almost everything on credit from homes(mortgage), iPhone from carriers to cars from car dealerships

Been a while I saw both
There can be easily eradicated

Completely spiraling into a poor man game of nutcracker

So many chest beating and nonsensical comments from left and right
America is now a glorified reality show

Hope he’s also getting pay his royalties too

This back and forth is benign and unnecessary to pay any ounce of attention to

In recent times, I've mistaken a lot of AI-generated videos for real until someone either corrects me or I get Twitter/X community notification.
Now, I look at some clips & tell myself "It could be AI...". I'm already getting desensitized that much.

I understand how frustrating it can be but there are always telltale signs AI generated images, JUST examine the background of said image or video for anything unusual or out of place or misalignment

Introduction to the Bible
Who Wrote the Bible? Well, I’ve titled it Introduction To The Bible From An Academic Point of View because not only do I cover who wrote each book and when, but I also cover how the whole thing is structured and how the Bible’s development is connected to the history of the Ancient Near East. So, let’s get started.
Basic Terminology
A lot of people think of the Bible as being exclusively a Christian book. They think that Christians have the Bible, Muslims have the Quran, and Jews have the Torah. But this is not quite correct. Jews also have a Bible. They call it the Tanakh, but it is also simply known as the Jewish Bible.
Christians divide their Bible into the Old Testament and New Testament. What Christians call the Old Testament is actually the exact same book as what Jews simply know as the Jewish Bible or Tanakh.
What about the Torah?
Christians call the first five books of the Old Testament the “Pentateuch” (meaning the five scrolls). These are Genesis through Deuteronomy. For Jews, these same five books are called the Torah. So, the Torah is simply the name for the first five books of the Tanakh, which happen to be the exact same five books as the first five books of the Christian Old Testament. Whether you pick up a Jewish Bible or a Christian Bible, other than some minor translation differences, the first five books are going to be exactly the same.
The Talmud
There’s a third Jewish book you might have heard of that starts with a “T”: the Talmud. But the Talmud is not actually considered part of the Jewish Bible. It’s an entirely different book comprised of oral traditions and commentary on those traditions, written by rabbis.
Who Wrote the Torah?
From a traditional point of view, the answer to “Who wrote this part of the Bible?” is easy: Moses. For some Orthodox Jews and evangelical Christians, there is simply no questioning that. But for the majority of Jews today and Bible scholars (like myself) and most Christians, the answer is not so simple.
From a historian’s point of view, Moses is more of a legendary character, and the stories about him include many literary elements. It’s also clear to language experts that the Torah is not the work of a single author. Rather, it consists of many layers pieced together over time. This makes sense, considering that the Torah deals with events initially passed down orally, leading to multiple versions of the same story.
For example, there are two separate creation accounts, two stories of Abraham lying about his wife Sarah, two accounts of God changing Jacob’s name to Israel, and so on. There are about 30 examples of these “doublets” in the Torah.
Theories About the Torah’s Authorship
Scholars agree that several distinct authors were involved, but they don’t agree on who those authors were or the order they contributed. Here are three major theories:
The Documentary Hypothesis
Proposed in the 1800s, this theory suggests the Torah was pieced together from four sources:
J (Jahwist): Uses the name Yahweh for God.
E (Elohist): Uses Elohim for God.
D (Deuteronomist): Focuses on Deuteronomy.
P (Priestly): Emphasizes rituals and laws.
Traditionally, J was dated to Solomon’s reign, E to the Northern Kingdom, D to King Josiah’s reign, and P after the Babylonian exile.
Modern variations combine J and E or adjust the timing of P.
The Supplementary Hypothesis
An updated version of the Documentary Hypothesis.
Suggests Deuteronomy (D) was the original core, written during King Josiah’s reign.
J and E are seen as supplementary material added during the Babylonian exile.
P is additional material added by priests during the Second Temple period.
A final redactor (R) combined everything.
The Dual Origins Theory
Proposes that the Israelites had two separate origin myths:
One involving the patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob).
One involving Moses and the Exodus.
These traditions developed independently and were combined during the Second Temple period by priests.
Explains abrupt transitions (e.g., Genesis to Exodus) and chronological issues.
The Development of the Bible
The Bible’s development reflects Israel’s history. Originally, Israel was two separate kingdoms (Israel in the north, Judah in the south). After the fall of the Northern Kingdom (722 BCE), refugees fled south, merging the two traditions. Monotheism likely solidified during this time.
The Torah was compiled during the Second Temple period, combining earlier sources. The rest of the Tanakh (Prophets and Writings) was added over centuries, with the final canonization occurring much later.

Structure of the Jewish Tanakh vs. Christian Old Testament
Jewish Tanakh (24 books):
Torah (5 books): Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy.
Nevi’im (Prophets, 8 books): Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, the Twelve.
Ketuvim (Writings, 11 books): Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Song of Solomon, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, Esther, Daniel, Ezra-Nehemiah, Chronicles.
Christian Old Testament (39 books):
Reorders the books and splits some (e.g., Samuel, Kings, Chronicles into two books each).
Adds deuterocanonical books (e.g., Tobit, Maccabees) in Catholic and Orthodox Bibles.

The New Testament
The New Testament tells the story of Jesus and the early church. Key sections:
Gospels (4 books): Matthew, Mark, Luke, John.
Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke) share similar content.
John is distinct, with more theological focus.
Acts of the Apostles: Chronicles the early church.
Epistles (Letters):
Pauline Epistles (e.g., Romans, Corinthians).
General Epistles (e.g., James, Peter).
Revelation: Apocalyptic vision of the end times.

Key Takeaways
The Bible is a collection of texts written over centuries by multiple authors.
Its structure reflects the history and theology of ancient Israel and early Christianity.
Understanding its composition helps appreciate its literary and historical depth.
I’ll be covering the New Testament more extensively next
