Have those Apc ethnic jingoistic from both North and SW who has been calling for expulsion and genocide of igbos since been arrested ?

Has Nigerian authorities arrested anyone ? No

Don't they have the same mentally as Isis ?

If you push someone to the wall, they will fight back. Since Apc took power, instead of them to face governance, they have been attacking Igbos.

Buhari government did the same. Tinubu follow suit. The era silence is over. Igbos are on defensive mode. Any form of attack will repelled.

He who ask for equity should come with clean hands.

I don't engage in whataboutism. If we use whataboutism as an excuse or justification for crimes, then no crime would ever be prosecuted.
We should treat all individual crimes on their merit.

Igbos are the most travelled people in Africa whether you like it or not. We travel more than you people even in Nigeria and outside Nigeria.

Obi will still campaign in the south west. Nothing will happen cheesy Have you condemn tinubu nepotism and tribalism ? Hypocrite!

Canada will not do anything to her. They have more issues to sort out rather than this petty online insult and bashing.

This goes beyond online insults and bashing. This is a clear intention of what she intends to do, and is encouraging her supporters to do the same. It the same as ISIS or Al Quaeda encouraging their supporters to kill Americans or Jews.
If it was just online insult and bashing, why did she quickly delete her X account? The law will catch up on her.

DeepSight:


Old friend, I think it is extremist to say one should not trust anyone who sleeps outside marriage. You should reflect that mankind is not naturally monogamous and it is indeed an irony that as an atheist you dont see that monogamy is a contraption of control foisted by religion.
I acknowledge and appreciate your friendship here on nairaland and your intellectual depths at analysing complex social issues.

I see my self as a humanist, my views are often non personal and look at how issues affect the wider society and humanity as a whole. As you are already aware, I am an evolutionist, a staunch believer in the doctrine of "survival of the fittest". Survival just doesn't mean individual survival but also includes family, clan, racial and species survival. Fittest also doesn't necessarily means strongest or fastest, that attributes (both physical and others elements) that best fits the environment.
I can now explain my "extremist" views on fidelity in marriage. Marriage is not necessarily a religious contraption, but a social construct (I would say evolutionary behaviour) for social order and progress. Ancient Rome that promoted monogamy did not do it for religious reasons but for social order (political and economic reasons). Even Judaism (or rather Abrahamism) which is the father of Christianism promoted polygamy. It was when Rome took over the Christian religion that monogamy was indoctrinated.

Let me Further explain why I feel polygamy is not desirable at this stage of our evolutionary development. In ancient times when the human population was small (100 million or less) and lived in isolated settlement. The economy was first Hunter gatherer and later agrarian. Polygamy was the most efficient method of family and thus societal survival. A man required multiple wives and children (or large family members) for successful hunts or to work the land for successful agriculture. Then a man's wealth was measured by the number of wives and children, and then agricultural produce. Furthermore, life expectancy was very short, with men being even shorter due to war, disease, hunting and extraneous work. So churning out children in numbers was needed to compensate for the high mortality rate.

Today, social dynamics have radically changed. The world population is 8 billion. The economy is now industrial and even digital. Families live in apartment building or at best single plot houses. Now, how will polygamy work in such a situation. Putting up 2 or more families under the same roof often end in disaster. Putting then under separate roofs also has its economic and psychological implications particularly on the children. In todays world polygamy is detrimental to building a strong, peaceful and prosperous society.




This is not to say one supports those sex addicts who are depraved rapists such as the racist, rapist, fraudster, convicted felon and pathological liar, Donald Trump.

As an aside what do you make of polygamy or polyandry?

Now having said the above, I am not particularly anti-polygamy. What I am against is lying and cheating. If my wife or girlfriend is not meeting my needs, I will let her know. If she insists on being stubborn and still fail to meet my needs, I will make her known that I will find solace elsewhere. I will never hide or lie. The only reason I will still stay in the marriage and not divorce is because of the children. But once the children are of independent age, I am gone.

Nope. By your logic, all rappers are confirmed killers.
So, liar one and liar two.
That's because for criminal conviction, there is the added legal hurdle of proving beyond "reasonable" doubt. So just one technicality can create a reasonable doubt no matter the preponderance of evidence.
In the case of O.J. Simpson, all evidence pointed to him being responsible for the murder, its was the glove that did not fit that created reasonable doubt in the criminal case.

No I am not an eunuch and I was never a alter boy, in fact I am a known atheist. I have also kissed my fair share of frogs, but that was in my "charming prince" days.


Again how many men have never screwed outside of their marriage and should Trump be a saint when he had all these femme fatales throwing themselves at him.
I have never screwed outside my marriage, and I have been married for more than 15 years. Most of the people I associate with are married and do not screw outside their marriage. My very good friend who us a billionaire lost his wife 2 years ago, he is yet to get over it. His wife's picture is still in all his online profiles. So it's a matter of values or lack of.


What does bedroom antics have to do with leadership..The most promiscuous people are the showbiz people if you didn't know. And the most admired men by very strict well behaved lassies are pastors.
If you can remain faithful to your spouse and family, how will you remain faithful to your community or country? I will not trust any man or woman who cheats on their spouse. If showbiz people are promiscuous, then they should not ge allowed anywhere near governance. Plain and simple. What example will he be setting for the upcoming generations that is expected to take over from him.
I left Christianity when I learn first hand that most pastors and their followers are hypocrites. They commit more sins and more wicked than even traditional worshippers. The pretend in the open but bring out their true self in secret.

I have no stats to back that up ,it's just a by the way.
Then you should stop promoting conjectures and personal opinions.

Trump was talking to a fellow man.
This is the proper context of his leaked tape that they had for long but waited to release it so that it would cause maximum damage to his campaign.

You see these high flying women Once they know you are darn wealthy they can let you grab their pussies They are all the same.

In other words they are just like ashawos.
If you been a broke ass all your life you probably never got laid by a femme fatale.
I'll just make it worse.
Those IG FB etc influencers with a gazillion followers are just like any other person. My friend used to ask Don't they take a dump like the rest of us?

Shameless liar. Trump is a confirmed rapist.

Trump: "I moved on her actually. You know she was down on Palm Beach. I moved on her, and I failed. I'll admit it. I did try and Bleep her, she was married."

Trump: "Yeah that's her with the gold. I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful... I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything."

Trump: "Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything."

All the redded parts of the quote fits the classic definition of rape or sexual harassment.

Melania has her own life to live and possibly raise a son while Trump is on the campaign trail

That is why its important to have 2 adults raising kids, Only those who have raised families will know why one parent should be at home
Melania can't take a couple of days of a week to support her husband campaign for the office of president (an officer that will benefit her too as first lady), because she has to raise one 18 year old boy during the summer break and also because she has her own life to live. Will she still have her own life to lead if Donald Trump becomes the president?

If I recall correctly, Hillary outmatched Trump during the 2015/016 election cycle - in terms of funding, support and all. Like I stated, even the Donald didn’t expect he’d win.

You see, his experience in office and his clearly articulated policy directions for the country is far ahead of what newbie Kamala and Walz have for the people. Taking chances or not, Kamala stand no chance against a formidable opponent, someone with who’s got the backing of many sane people and not some brainwashed, speech influencing, shortsighted, abortion loving and evil minded people.

Can you also decide to kill yourself since its your personal freedom
But can you criminalised suicide? Does it make sense to punish a person who already attempted to impose the ultimate punishment on him or herself?
Attempted Suicide should be a health issue rather than a criminal issue.
That's why I don't understand the cognitive dissonance exhibited by republicans, you criminalise suicide and abortion but see gun violence including mass killings as a medical problem.

Anti abortion argues that the baby is a separate individual and you cannot decide to kill the baby. The baby is denied that choice on what happens to it
It's all a matter of perspective. A woman who wants to abort a baby sees the Fetus as a parasite, an unwanted guest living in her body consuming her energy. If the baby is a separate individual and is capable of independent existence, then the pro-abortionist feels the fetus should be given the option of living somewhere else outside her body.

If we refine all our crude into petroleum and associated products, we would not care at what price crude will trade. Refined products prices are not regulated. In fact if oil trade at 30 USD, we should import and stock up our reserves.

All this crude oil squabbles in Nigeria would be solved only if Nigeria can increase its oil production to atleast 5million bpd, considering Joint ventures and product sharing agreements with the IOC’s.

NNPC is not producing enough per OPEC quota. They are not producing for in-house refining. They can’t supply to our local refineries and yet they wouldn’t allow local refineries to buy directly from Local producers of oil.

Summary: NNPC is contributing atleast 60% of the financial problems Nigeria is having today.
We should not be a member of OPEC in the first place. It's stupid logic to be exporting our crude when we produce only 1.2 million barrels per day, out of which we have only about 300,000 barrels at our disposal after setting financial obligations,and then importing over 1million barrels per day of crude from abroad with all the attendant higher costs to run our refineries including Dangote 650 000 barrels per day mega refinery.

USA produces 13 million barrels of crude per day, they are not a member of OPEC, Russia produces over 10 million barrels of crude per day, they are not member of OPEC, even Norway produces close to 2 million barrels per day, they are not exporting their crude. We that is barely producing 1 million barrels, 60% of which is our share, we pride ourselves as OPEC number.

Matter of fact many Babalawos & juju worshippers have repackaged as Pastors/Imams/prophets/MoGs to remain in business.

As per the soap, NAFDAC certified it just like any other soap. There is no special ingredient that makes it a miracle soap.
Whoever is buying the soap is doing so with the belief that it possesses supernatural powers.

&The prophet should have turned a blind eye but it's obvious both he & VDM like publicly & thrive on it, even if it is negative publicity.

NAFDAC certified the soap for cleaning of body and not for miracles and supernatural powers. That's a misleading claim and in other climes you could be sued for making false claims.
