While your eyes can only see the trees, there are many that can see the forest.

Fuckingmallam45:
I don’t just like this guy at all compare to Obama. Here is a picture that shows differences in personalities of both presidents. Your personality defines your ground in politics.
Trump, This is somebody who doesn’t mind getting ahead of other people and leaving them behind, even his own wife. This shows that Trump is an insensitive go getter and cares mainly for himself: boss mentality. I would imagine this worked well in the business world and that trait is highly valued in that kind of world, but when it comes to interpersonal interactions, it says a lot about a person’s view on other people.


Obama, This is somebody who values people, especially his loved ones. He would never leave them behind and if they’re lagging, he’ll lag with them too. This is a person who is a leader, not a boss. He will adjust his pace and actions to match the person with him. That’s a great usage of interpersonal skills.

Your last statement gave you away.

It made me check your posts since you now want to claim Tinubu's shadow since you have knowledge of where he DID NOT go to

If I had known you are a Tinubu and Buhari worshipper I wouldn't have bothered with my responses.

Anyone who sees black and calls it white is an accomplice to evil.

I should have known. I'm sure you are a tribalism as well. Nobody can worship Buhari and love people from other tribes. The man is the greatest tribalist that has ever ruled in Aso Rock.

Pls Note I can guess which tribe you belong to.

When APC comes to an end we will be amazed at the depth of corruption that will be exposed. 1000 times worse than the corruption under GEJ

Babacele:
Yes GEJ maybe a weak man but history would be kind to him for ignoring the evil prodding from people like you who never told him truth but had wrapped his presidency in an atmosphere of lies,prejudices and hatred. He saw his deserving defeat glaringly despite the noise from close admirers who had destroyed his administration by stealing rather than working for posterity. He was wise to have averted a disaster by dismissing the suggestion from national enemies pretending to be his friends.

'Desperate ?' I'm sure you do not know the meaning hence your abusing its usage.
.
Tinubu hobnopping with Jega? continue to lie to yourself.

Hello again CanadaOrBust.

We meet again.

The back and forth between you guys has left our heads spinning.

Anyway let me leave the matter. I'm not a paedophile so the age of consent is not of primary importance to me. I just love knowledge.

CanadaOrBust:
(See screenshot below)
My brother the law is VERY CLEAR that AoC is 18.
There is nothing there AT ALL for a lawyer to interprete. It is either the Virginfinder guy is dumb as a door nail or he is just being mischievous.
I DARE ANY LAWYER TO INTERPRET IT TO MEAN AoC IS 11.
IMPOSSIBLE!!!!

I have gotten to page 2 and I'm none the wiser on the age of consent.

Does it mean there are no criminal lawyers on Nairaland.

What a shame.

That you actually think that GEJ couldn't have won the election in 2015 if he was ready to do what Buhari and Oshiomhole have been doing confirms that you are actually living in a fantasy.

GEJ is a weakling and was never as desperate as Tinubu or Buhari. Even when reports of Jega hobnobbing with Tinubu and Buhari got to him he did nothing whereas an Obasanjo or Buhari would have sacked Jega on the spot.

The Igbos in Aguda and Ago Palace way in Lagos who were physically threatened at last years election will tell you that votes don't count unless they are for the party who dominates a constituency.

What APC did in Osun to disenfranchise the PDP supporters last year was unheard of in the history of this country.

GEJ was a weak man and he was tired of that seat so he watched his enemies take power from him like food from the mouth of a newborn.

Buhari showed us last year via Oshiomhole how desperate he was to win election.

Babacele:
I know it hurts you utterly when I use ' we' - or ' we Nigerians' . It is a reality you can never wish away however painful it may sound to your hearing or reasoning.

For the records, the pressure the Nigerian masses who saw the helpless GEJ as a symbol of their identity nudged the nobles and other estates of the realm in our resolve to defeat the cabal. It was from the bank of this sympathy that GeJ enjoyed to defeat Atiku when the PDP primary came. For example, in unison with hausas in my community through the leader Sen Abdulahi Adamu told delegates not to vote Atiku despite the unprecedented ' delegate goro' from Turaki. Such news may never be printed on any newspaper.

If you say we are not relevant ,how come GEJ couldn't win 2015 when we left him to his cabals?

And how come OBJ couldn't install Atiku in 2019 without us.
With the advent of the internet, we are even more powerful. We are Nigerians.

It appears you are having delusions of grandeur. Neither you nor "Nigerians" fought any cabal after the death of Yaradua nor did you bring about the doctrine of necessity.

The first person to fire shots against the cabal was late Dora Akinyuli when she said at a FEC meeting that GEJ should be sworn in. You are not her.

The doctrine of necessity was a powerful move by David Mark to force the cabal to surrender power to GEJ. You are not David Mark.

The noise that a few Nigerians made on the streets would have been silenced if the cabal wanted bloodshed. They allowed them live but that made no difference if the above two people did not make their move. More especially David Mark who firmly controlled the Senate back then.

Today we have a government that kills unarmed protesters. That is why Nigerians protest ends on social media so once again I ask how did you "fight" cabal to grant GEJ Aso Rock?

Then tell us how you and Nigerians influenced PDP primaries in 2011!

You carefully avoided telling us how
you and the rest of the masses fought Atiku in 2011. I always thought that Party primaries is a party affair but now thanks to you I am hearing that Nigerians in general decide who each party picks as their flag bearer.

I think you live in a fantasy world.

Babacele:
'We 'means Nigerians. Yea because we allowed or supported Obj in 2011 against Atiku didn't he succeed? But we called off his bluff in 2019 and he failed to have his way. I hope you would grudgingly agree . Why didn't OBJ used his magic without ' we' to install Atiku?

You keep using the word "we"

Who are you exactly and how did you fight the "cabal"? Pls educate us.

Your imagination is definitely overstimulated as it is public knowledge that Obasanjo fully supported GEJ in 2011 and Atiku did not stand a chance against a sitting president in the same party and also with the full backing of Obasanjo.

It seems you hate Atiku. That is your right but stop twisting history.

Babacele:
I'm sure you are a foreigner. We fought cabal after the death of Yardua which brought the ' doctrine of necessity' ,and in 2011 PDP primaries when Atiku taught he could buy his way through ,we defeated him at all costs to ensure GEJ emerged and it was a smooth sail to being sworn in the second time as the president of Nigeria for GEJ. The tales of how Atiku was defeated is still fresh in our memories. Nuhu Ribadu wasn't really the main opposition but Atiku.

But to our chagrin , only for you ungrateful naysayers, to hijack GEJ 's government and thinking, and told him to dare and ditch Nigerians the way the present cabals seem to be nudging Buhar oni. Well ,the rest is history.

The way you boldly twist history is amazing.

You and who fought for GEJ to come in against Atiku?

When did those two run against each other that you chose GEJ?

Pls reduce the lies. Even if you want to deceive yourself pls don't attempt to deceive us alongside.

Also it's hypocritical to say that GEJ should have been removed for poor leadership when he was trying to be reelected whereas Buhari was given a second chance to further divide and impoverish Nigerians.

How was Nigerian economy in Feb 2019?

Better or worse than Feb 2015?

If you lie you will be lied against!!

Babacele:
if una like make una cry blood ,if the circumstances available by 2014 /2015 present themselves again ,we would still vote PMB over GEJ . Don't forget history twisters that we the same Nigerians had fought for n brought in Gej over the likes of Atiku in before and in 2011 What changed between 2010 -2015? What changed is that the shoeless boy became the very anomaly we fought to pave way for his emergence and history punished him in 2015. But he , and this can't be taken away from his political history and CV, rewrote history in that phone call to PMB to concede to the chagrin of our national enemies like Reno Wendel Omockery ,Orubebe ,ipobs etc who had wanted mayhem. God bless Gej for that.
Sowore , Aisha Buhari and any other sane Nigerian have the basic right of voicing their disappointments if PMB is performing below expectations or certain standards
Just as the same Sowore who had used the same Sahara reporters to fight cabals in favor of Gej can also use same against any anomaly under Buhari. National interest is the fuel that pushes his passion but it is a pity ,petty people can't see it that way.

If you only unhooked yourself from mainstream media you would have known the claim that there is no treatment is nothing but a farce.

What did doctors use on Boris Johnson when he was on ventilator in a public hospital in London?

Has any leader of any first World country died? Or their deputy? What of their families?

If you keep asking deep questions you will realise something is fishy but if you are the mentally lazy type who outsources their thinking to CNN and other mainstream media then continue to move in the direction some people somewhere have planned for you.

There are global interests that will keep spreading lies and fear until the world bows down to accept mandatory vaccines.

solmus:
A sickness without cure with mortality rate of 1-5 percent and huge infection rate is a cause for concern for people have care for themselves and their loved ones

1500 people die from cancer everyday in the US. Its been like that for over 7yrs now

Yet it isn't the No 1 killer.

Free yourself from the fear of covid because if you are to die this year the chances of it being from covid are infinitesimal.

A sickness with a mortality rate of 1-5% shouldn't make people forget the real killer diseases in this world.

solmus:
Only one admitted to his stupidity, the rest must have died still in ignorance

So out of all those who came to the party one died.

What about the others?

The media and fear mongering just to get clicks and eyeballs.

Pls Keep on boosting your immunity and live your life.

Wanted?

Which party is he in now by the way?

So you're one of the APC worshippers that keeps on trying to defend the indefensible.

You're party is much more corrupt than PDP ever was.

When APC is out we shall discover all that went down.

ThatFairGuy1:
Is that how he'll defend the allegations? Thief
One of the PDP thieves that wanted succour in APC.

Did Oshiomhole play politics of love?

Mtsheww

dalongjnr:
Politics of bitterness. That's no reason 'cos u are not the only person affected.

You will go very very far.

You understand how this world works

Focusmind:
don't worry, I will volunteer. I am trying to sign up. I hope I would be allowed to come and do internship in WTO.

I am looking for a way to sign in. That is the way it starts. Most politicians and leaders of multilateral agencies does that as well. They always have volunteers to campaign for them and at the end, there are some non monetary benefits like exposure, getting information regarding the agency and the candidate, getting to know the contestant very well and having the person as a mentor.

People may crticise it but it pays. I know one guy that was part of Atiku's media campaign online. He was able to meet Atiku one on one later. Finally, Atiku's name was included in one of his proposals as a referee and the contractor called him. The fact that he knew Atiku somehow made him relevant among other proposals

So campaigning for high-profile candidate is not bad at all but try and make yourself visible. All na part of networking.

Only a staunch APC lapdog could come up with this total annihilation on all forms of logic and common sense.

tesppidd:
So do you think that the DSS could ever have gone against Magu without Buhari's approval?

Or do you think that Magu could have faced any panel at the Presidency without Buhari's approval?

It's either people are being foolish or being mischievous.


The sanction of Magu is actually a plus to Buhari than a minus to him.

Seems you want to crack my ribs!

CanadaOrBust:
Nigerians do blind copy copy. Same way they blindly copied American presidential system without copying all the little checks and balances, resulting in an all too powerful presidency. Also they retained the annoying English titles, Rt. Hon., etc. Even the lawyers insist on wearing their stupid English wigs despite the hot sun

I am sad though that the same problems that plague the Black American Family are creeping into the Nigerian family unit.

We are far behind them but our pace isn't slowing down.

So much turmoil in marriages now unlike the 60s/70s.

I don't think there is any effective remedy.

CanadaOrBust:
It’s well deserved

Thank you for your compliment

CanadaOrBust:
This actually is a very good write-up

Since you prefer to discuss a symptom than the cause of the disease let's agree to disagree.

Also your final assertion is very untrue. The destruction of the Black Family began over 400yrs ago when slavers began separating families for economic reasons. The black woman was a big victim then. When slavery ended that ended as well

Dividing the Black Family was restarted in the 60'/70s by Democratic governments who realised that the best way to keep the blacks down was to entice their women with money to live without a husband. That is when Black women became complicit and enablers of the destruction of Black Families. They began to choose money over men. The results are now clear for the whole world to see.

If you are unaware of these things then it is because you know little of Black American history and I suggest you pick up a book or two instead of carrying on with the radical feminists narrative that absolves Black women of their responsibility in the Black Family Holocaust.

Black Men were raised by Black Women. If they are unable to commit to their women and are irresponsible then the problem can be found in their upbringing.

You don't want to deal with that painful reality so let's respectfully end the conversation as I don't really wanna keep on arguing with a person who hasn't studied the topic for themselves.

Have a nice day.

baralatie:
All that you have mentioned,postulated and described reveals the attitude and the psyche of the Black American Male when responsibility .

A black American man has a relationship with a black American woman.she gets pregnant.the black American man is
1.blaming the woman for getting pregnant
2.runs away from accepting the paternity of the child that the black American woman wants to force him to marry.
3.if the black American woman wants relationship she should abort
all these are excuses,excuses from black American men.
the problem is basically black American men with their off point deviant attitude to concepts of fidelity, marriage,fatherhood responsibility is the foundation of the problems facing black American women.

it is because of this that laws were enacted to protect black American women from the dangerous lifestyle of black American men

The women mostly chose to get pregnant. They were not forced. Birth control has been available for 50yrs. The government policies favour single women run homes with all sorts of rebates and grants.

The black women take full advantage of this even when they have little capacity to handle the task of investing the required mental and emotional resources in the black boy child to raise him right.

baralatie:
it is good that you raised this up.
like it is expected you the left out this fact
for every 750000 black American women out of 1000000 in the United State of America who is a single mother in your analysis has 750000 black American Men who is responsible for that condition.

I almost believed your bolded below but I know better

I really don't care whether you or the other women knocking the book read it or not. You guys may be right. It might be trash but refusing to confirm the thinking behind the writers viewpoint is a sign of mental laziness

I do care however about anyone who knocks a thing without even checking it out.

You rarely get incisive insights from such people. They tend to specialise in repeating what they were told. Rarely do they display Critical Thinking since they surround themselves with Confirmation Bias.

Charlie Munger said “You must force yourself to consider opposing arguments. Especially when they challenge your best loved ideas.”


That's just too much to expect from angry Black Women

CanadaOrBust:
Frankly I use you own words out of laziness - it is much easier, just copy and paste

I think u may be overestimating us here on NL. We are not about to ever read that book nor are we even interested in the book; honestly, we are not even interested in the synopsis. We are only interested in the 70% figure and proffering our own reasons why we think it is so

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

I must confess I enjoy how you keep using my own words. Please don't stop.

As for the book. There are two reasons for reading. Entertainment or Knowledge. If I have a problem that has defied all solutions then I keep searching till I find what I'm looking for.

What I don't do is knock someone's attempt to proffer a solution (without even studying it) just because it doesn't fit with my politics.

I am a Christian who has learnt much from Buddhism

I am a Republican who was once a Democrat.

I am Black but flow much better with Whites.

Radical Feminists, Islamists and Gay Rights advocates are the most closed minded people you will find anywhere. That's why they are always fighting something or someone. No Love.

Also I take back my earlier statement.

Most Black American Women are too self righteous to accept their role in the decimation of the Black Family so they won't buy the book not because they don't have $6 but because they don't seek solutions in books.

They get all the sage advice they need at the hair salon.

CanadaOrBust:
That is only one short sentence. The synopsis here contains two full paragraphs for a vastly shorter book.

Thankfully I wasn’t you who can’t tell the difference.

I'm a bit more intelligent than that

I once saw a synopsis of the Bible that went thus.

A book of fairytales written by Jews.

Thankfully I wasn't you who makes reading decisions based on the synopsis alone.

I'm a bit more intelligent than that

CanadaOrBust:
The synopsis of the book is right there for u to read but u refuse to read it.

There's a word that describes such behaviour but I won't mention it.

Maybe BAW(Black American Women) don’t want to give $6 to a person whose thesis summary is so flawed

You're probably unaware that around 75% of black American homes are headed by a single woman.

The implication of that is that the person responsible for so many "bad" Black men is the black American woman herself who did such a bad job of raising her sons


Also if the men are as bad as the radical black feminists claim they should look deeper into why they are complete failures at bringing up decent men.

baralatie:
and the black American men who fall short in school attendance compared to black American women choose not to buy 1000000 copies @ $6 to distribute for their women to be liberated

You knock a book that you haven't even read.

Sigh.

There's a word that describes such behaviour but I won't mention it.

Maybe Black American women are single cos they can't afford $6 to read a book to find out why they are single.

Perhaps you didn't comprehend that he is talking to Nigerians in general not Buhari specifically.

I'm sure you are excited about the carnage going on in the North.

JAMO84:
This one hasn't realize that Buhari will never have his time, he's just wasting his time and constituting nuisance at his age.

A Nigerian politician will reveal secret payoffs received over the phone to an unknown journalist.

So obvious this is fake news from the stable of APC productions.

No doubt a mixture of half truths and pure fabrications from the party that institutionalised lying to the populace

Let the gullible believe

Insulting somebody because of their opinion of Will Smith's kids

Can a person's self esteem be any lower??

Tatashi:
Which jaden is a drug addict? Hahhahaah Fool. Pls go indepth and do your research.Will and Jada may have an open marriage which i feel is their business and nobdy's (after all,a good number of your spouses are cheating hooHaa without ur knowledge) but asides that,He has very very very responsible children and highly intellectual too. From his first child with his ex wife to Jad to Willow.NON! are into drugs and they are into their careers.

Buhari has got what he wanted.

He couldn't care less about anybody else.

If you are unaware of this then you are not in this country.

itsme01:
Then why didn't the almighty Buhari intervene in judicial matter as regard Bayelsa and Zamfara

Court judgements are bought and sold.

Tinubu used Justice Salami to win so many states. We know that Buhari could have intervened if he wanted to?

Do you think Nigerians are fools?

itsme01:
Giadom and Appeal court sacked Oshiomhole not Buhari, and Buhari sacked Giadom not Oshiomhole get that fact

Can someone explain to me how allowing the sack of Oshiomhole so unceremoniously is part of playing a fast one on Oshiomhole's haters?

The man wasn't even given a soft landing

itsme01:

Qlwpgl

Buhari just played a fast one on Jagaban and Oshiomhole's haters


*Oshiomhole removed Obaseki from APC primaries,

*Obaseki went to beg Buhari to intervene but Buhari did nothing

*Obaseki went to Tinubu yet he insisted on Party decision being supreme

*Appeal Court gave Judgement suspending Oshiomhole

*Ajimobi was quickly sworn in as Acting Chairman on his sick bed, Buhari said nothing while Giadom the next in line went to court

*Ajimobi died late in the evening and upon hearing the news of a possible take over by Giadom Buhari spoke through Garba Shehu and recognised Giadom as the Acting Chairman

*Buhari fooled Giadom to host a National Executive Council meeting, thinking Buhari wanted to familiarise him with APC members Nationwide

*Buhari like a Military Coup, announced dessolution of Giadom lead NWC and Gbajabiamila rose to make a motion that Giadom exit the meeting immediately since he seizes to be an executive, Giadom was escorted out by security immediately

*Like a Military Dictator General Buhari ordered all court cases be dropped immediately, meaning Giadom can't file a lawsuit against his dishonourable 24hours sack

* He ordered Yobe State Governor (National Secretary under Oshiomhole) Governor of Niger State (a neutral man) and Governor Oyetola (Tinubu's first cousin) to fully assume all affairs of the Party and prepare for a National Congress by 6 months time

*Sequel to that Buhari ordered APC to work and give him Edo victory when the Governors visited, meaning they have no choice but to work for Pastor Ize Iyamu , Oshiomhole's boy


seat back and enjoy the game play

IVAR THE BRAINLESS SORRY BONELESS.

Eyaah! You sound so frustrated.

Do you know Its been scientifically proven that people that are comfortable using profanity in public usually have either a low quality, primary and secondary education and were probably unable to attend or complete tertiary education.

So I can tell how your early life looked like. And that's why I'm not angry at your insults or your manipulation of my post.

You are simply a product of your upbringing.

A downtrodden public school where three children shared one desk or perhaps your teachers taught you under the trees.

Take heart. There's still hope for you.

Remain blessed
