you're dumb but you don't know it. Majority of People trump bash has always been the first to come against him one way or the other. FLOTUS has never been active in any type of politics neither does she denigrate anyone. It's quite petty that the so called tolerant left goes about cussing and bullying anyone that doesn't support their agenda even to the extent of bullying the president's teenage son that has been kept out of public eye.
Bunch of hypocrites masquerading as saints.

I did not know that Republicans are cry babies, they dish out what they cannot accept. Was Michelle Obama active in politics during the time of her husband? We're you guys not bullying and cursing her ever other day? Because we call Melania an illegal alien, you guys want to commit suicide. What of Michelle you call all sorts of names including a transgender, did the left cry like you cry babies?

Watch how the tolerant right treated Michelle Obama. Now compare and contrast how the intolerant left is treating Melania Trump

By the way I said most. The Coronavirus is not something he can easily control. Meanwhile the crux of my post was that it’s weird seeing a Buhari supporter saying Trump is incompetent. It’s preposterous!

What is preposterous? Trump is far more incompetent than Buhari using all human criteria except race.
Buhari is a retired General, Trump has never worked in his life.

Buhari was on the battle field during the Nigerian civil war, Trump dodged the draft during the Vietnam war.

Buhari had held numerous public office positions, from governor, minister, head of state to PTF chairman before becoming president, Trump has no experience whatsoever in public officers.

As per the handling of the coronavirus, Trump's handling of it is the worst in the entire world. The US still does not have a concise national response to the pandemic, the US response is a mess, making it the coronavirus virus capital of the world.

Did you read what the commissioner said? Resuming 3rd term online, those students who can't afford to learn online what will happen to them?

Resume third term, How? When most schools have not finished second term or done their second term exams.

What concerns me about those students that cannot afford to learn online? Are you concerned about millions of almajiris in the north who cannot learn both offline and online? Maybe you should stop your children from going to school to show sympathy for almajiris.

One of the main reason Nigeria can never develop is because of anarchists or naysayers. They can give you a thousand and one reason why any and every new idea cannot work, but not just one idea on how it can work. People have brought such stupid excuses on why online teaching cannot work. Stupid excuses like no electricity, but their phones is never off, they always find ways to charge it, even though there are no electricity. Some complained of cost of data, meanwhile they are always on Facebook, whatsapp, instagram, nairaland, etc. Is it with fm radio that they are able to access these sites? Another stupid excuse is that the parents don't have time; during a lockdown? Where will the parents go? There are memes all over social media of jobless husband's doing house chores and crazy stuff because of boredom due to lockdown.

Anyway, that one na Lagos State problem, the time table for my children's online class came out yesterday, so we are preparing for online lessons. Lagos State should be at the forefront of promoting online classes instead of being an enemy of progress.

Moralgladiator:
This is why everyone cannot be a leader. Leaders think for the less privileged as for himself.

Tell that to the over 16 million children who are out of school in Nigeria.

Saintinoo:
Did you read what the commissioner said? Resuming 3rd term online, those students who can't afford to learn online what will happen to them?

We are are operating a capitalist democratic system and not a communist or a socialist system. You get what what you pay for.

Moralgladiator:
Some of you hardly take time to think before you speak!! Use your head and know that not every parent can afford such expenses and it is the job of the government to keep the pace of their educational system uniform. Try to reason before you speak cause such unguarded responses only exposes your foolishness and reduces your chances for any meaningful online collaborations.

What do you mean "keep the pace of their educational system uniform"? Are you saying I cannot pay extra for my child's educational development if I can afford it? Are they not going to sit for uniform exams like JAMB, NECO, WAEC, GCE, etc? The fact that some pupils attend Public schools, while other attend British - American has already destroyed your uniform educations system.

Saintinoo:
So what happend to students who their parents can not afford 250k as fee?

The same thing that happens to those who cannot afford to send their children to school. It's not by force to register and pay for the online lessons. Promotions and exams are not based on the online lessons, it's just to keep the children's mind occupied during this period.

OceanEye:
Why resuming when public and less privileged have no chance to? Let us all be one during this unexpected global crisis.

And people like you will claim that the north is holding down the south educationally, because of quota system.

Most schools in the US continued teaching their students online. My friend who is a lecturer in a US university tells me he has been teaching his students online from home, and Lagos a supposedly progressive state is banning online teaching.

This coronavirus crisis should have been a test run for online education and teaching, which is the future of education. Many people get their degree without leaving their homes, Open university was inaugurated by Obasanjo over a decade ago.

PremierGuy:
President Trump is due a Nobel prize

Not Nobel, but Noble price according to Trump.

oceania100:
Going by your assertion, why is Urhobo attaching itself to OKPE then, the OKPE people have said they are not Urhobo. Today, they have their own Bible and other books different from Urhobo language.But Urhobos still claim them as part of
Urhobo nation.

If Okpe people say they are not urhobo, you cannot force them to be one. Just like you cannot force Austrians to be Germans.

That's how humans societies evolve. The world was at one time one race, one tribe and one language. Groups seperate and migrate to other locations, due to political or economic reasons, and eventually seperate from the original stock to form new tribes.

kokaneprodigy:
how she got her working visas is not my problem, the article is from BBC and it states she was on a string of working visas, nothing in that report states she worked or stayed in the US illegally.

whatever other trash you come up with is speculative at best,.

I ask again
how is Melania Trump an illegal immigrant?

Do you have proof she over stayed her visa at any point?

Do you have any proof she worked a day without work permit?

if you have proofs of any of the above kindly show otherwise shove ur trash where it belongs, don't drag me into beer parlour convos.

The article is a statement from her lawyers.

What is the meaning of a string of working visas. She came in on a tourist visa. If she wanted to work in the US, why did she not apply for a work visa?

And all the thrash you are spewing are not conjectures? You are talking as if you have seen her visas or if you know her employers.

Whether you accepted it or not Melania Trump entered the US on a tourist visa and worked illegally.

She came to the US with a tourist visa, then her lawyers claimed she "got a string of working visas" and eventually she got an Einstein Visa with the help of Trump. If she already had a string of working visas, why did she need an Einstein Visa again?

kokaneprodigy:
1. You don’t even understand that examples is not same as exclusive.

2. You missed the part where it is stated that she has been in US on a string of working visa. Before being granted permanent residency.

You are fond of reading to reply and not to understand.

I ask again how is she an illegal immigrant?

You are so eager to defend Trump (or Melania) that you don't even bother to process the information in your brain before spewing it out again.

This is the part you posted as justifying Melania;

Mrs Trump came to the US in 1996, first on a tourist visa then later a string of working visas for skilled immigrants, according to her lawyer. She was working as a model in New York when she met Mr Trump at a party in 1998, a relationship that considerably raised her celebrity profile.

Melania got into the US with a tourist visa in 1996, and she was already working in 1998 as a model in New York by the time she met Donald Trump. So you tell me that after entering the US on a tourist visa in 1996, she went back and forth to Slovenia multiple times to obtain a skilled immigrant visa that allowed her to work in the US, all within a couple of years.
You guys talk as if we are illiterates here or that some of us have never applied and gotten US visa. Modelling does not qualify for skilled immigrant visa in the US or any other country for that matter. Based on what skills was Melania given a special skills visa. If she was qualified for special skills visa, why did she enter US in the first instance with a tourist visa?

Latest tweet by president Trump;
"When will all of the “reporters” who have received Noble Prizes for their work on Russia, Russia, Russia, only to have been proven totally wrong (and, in fact, it was the other side who committed the crimes), be turning back their cherished “ Nobles” so that they can be given.... ....to the REAL REPORTERS & JOURNALISTS who got it right. I can give the Committee a very comprehensive list. When will the Noble Committee DEMAND the Prizes back, especially since they were gotten under fraud? The reporters and Lamestream Media knew the truth all along.... ....Lawsuits should be brought against all, including the Fake News Organizations, to rectify this terrible injustice. For all of the great lawyers out there, do we have any takers? When will the Noble Committee Act? Better be fast!"

Trump called NOBEL price Noble price 4 times, so this obviously was not a typographical error but a mental error. He also mistook the Nobel price for the Pulitzer price. Journalists are awarded Pulitzer price and not Nobel price.

And someone would be comparing Buhari to Trump. Ordinary Buhari calling covid 19, which was just recently named a few weeks ago covik 1-9, and Buhari was virtually crucified on social media for being ignorant. But what will you call Trump that is completely ignorant about a Nobel price and the Pulitzer price that has been around for more than 100 years.

DanseMacabre:
To be honest though, someone with stellar economic credentials and a pragmatic manifesto is Moghalu. I think he should be at the forefront of this discussion.

To me the only Igbo politician I think would make a good president is former senate president Ken Ugwu Nnamani. He is scandal free, and he seems to be an honest man. But then, Nigerians do not appreciate honest men, the worship crooks who will steal their future and the future of their generations and use the stolen wealth to oppress them.

ezenwajosh:
I created a thread where I asked if kwara state is Yoruba the mode DELETED IT

WHY?

It's only kwarans that can answer the question and nobody else. If kwarans say they are Yorubas an igbo man has no right to say they are not, and if the kwarans say they are not Yorubas, no Yoruba man can say they are.

Identity is personal. People can choose whatever identity they want to call themselves.

Aksnoopy:
The issue of aniomas being igbo has once again been settled on twitter with majority of Igbo's who speak the anioma dialect of Igbo arguing that they are more Igbo than their eastern brother's and sister's. I totally agree with the fact that anioma's are truly igbo's, politics aside. Here is Hon ndudi elumelu, the younger brother of Tony elumelu the CEO of UBA bank affirming his igboness on the lower floor of the National Assembly.
https://mobile.twitter.com/UcheOkoyep/status/1254411102714310657

It's all politics. All it takes to get the loyalty and support of the igbo masses is just claim to be igbo or support igbo cause (like biafra), and they would be ready to die for you. It does not not matter whether you are Calabari, Ikwerre, Benin or even Yoruba. Ask Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan or Fani Kayode or even Fayose.

In reality the Aniomas trace their roots from different sources, some trace their roots to Benin and so claim they are not igbos, while some trace their roots to Anambra and so claim to be igbos.

Do u have proof of this?

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/world-us-canada-43256318

Did you even read the article you posted?
Let me break down to you like a toddler;

Melania Trump obtained US citizenship on a visa reserved for immigrants with "extraordinary ability" and "sustained national and international acclaim", according to a report in the Washington Post.

Abeg tell me which extraordinary ability Melania Trump has. I suspect her abilities "in the other room" must be extraordinary.

Nicknamed the "Einstein Visa", the EB-1 is in theory reserved for people who are highly acclaimed in their field - the government cites Pulitzer, Oscar, and Olympic winners as examples - as well as respected academic researchers and multinational executives.

Abeg tell me which field Melania is acclaimed, was she a Pulitzer price or Oscar winner, or even an Olympic medalist. Maybe she was an academic researchers or a multinational executive.

Mrs Trump began applying for the visa in 2000, when she was Melania Knauss, a Slovenian model working in New York and dating Donald Trump. She was approved in 2001, one of just five people from Slovenia to win the coveted visa that year, according to the Post .

This is the koko of the matter. She was an illegal alien working illegally in New York and she was screwing Donald Trump. As you know screwing Donald Trump qualifies you for Einstein Visa. She applied in 2000 and just one year later, she got an Einstein Visa.
Now if an Ngozi immigrated from Nigeria to hustle on the streets of New York and met a influential young Obama, who used his influence to get her an Einstein Visa within 1 year and later married her. If the same Barack Obama later decides to run for presidency, the Republicans and their supporters including self hating Nigerians would never accept her as first lady. They would go after Obama for corrupting the visa system.

how is Melenia Trump an illegal immigrant?

Melania Trump Melania came to the US in 1996 on a tourist visa, but then and work as a professional model without a work permit. That's the kind of illegal immigrants Donald Trump hates and wants to deport from the US.

garetz:
This woman has never done anything to you, doesn't even know you exist, is not a politician and avoids politics as much as possible so I don't get why you have to be this Petty and foolish to be making this mocking remarks about her on her birthday just because she is the wife of a politician you don't like. It just shows how shallow minded you liberals can be, very pathetic!! Liberalism is indeed a mental disorder.

Imagine you guys weeping over a small jibe aimed at Melania, when you heaped much more insults on Michelle. Melania is even having it very easy compared to what Michelle went through at the hands of fox and friends. Even here on nairaland, there is no insulting word you guys did not use on Michelle.

Highorbit7016:
The ugly truth is if I hadn't taken some legal actions against merrybet they'd have eaten my money and made me feel cheated and violated.
They are so very much uncomposed. Whoever handles their twitter account will say something very different from what their Facebook page handler would say. Then there's the Ufuoma and Sharon. Ufuoma would say it's an error, Sharon would say I must continue betting, unfortunately they're all merrybet customer reps o.
Then on Facebook, whenever I post, the admin deletes my posts. Hardly does it stay 20mins on their page before it is deleted.
If I had the opportunity and financial power, I swear deep down, I'll pursue more legal actions against merrybet.
Seriously are these the people you want to entrust your money to

Once again, sent you a private mail.

Sent you mail. Please respond.

See Cesar Millan establishing his dominance over a stubborn dog here, my quarrel with his method is that he was not adequately protected and so took a nasty bite.

humilitypays:
As a lady or woman or girl, don't ever breed or keep large species of animals as pet, be it dog, cat or whichever.

Go for the small Bunnie.


You cannot discipline that dog, the dog may get aggressive and bite you hard, don't listen to people here. Sell that dog and go for those tiny dogs with large furr

I know someone that has 2 dobermans (a military man). They sit when he orders them to. It depends on the way you train the dogs.

Gabrokpara001:
Op you have made a very big mistake by backing down when your dog challenged your position,now he is the alpha of the house yes!..The way we live in families dogs live in packs and a pack must have a leader whose position most be merited...you may be taking this as a joke but dominant dog breed such as rotts, Boerboels, Caucasians,e.t.c require a firm hand that's why there re nt recommended for first time owners who ll get scared when a dog challenges them...Don't be surprise if your dog attacks you or your family one day.

Correct your mistake show him no fear and spank him to submission next time he challenges you...tho with his age it may be difficult for you..good luck

He challenged you to the dominant male of the house and you backed down. You dog now sees itself as the Alpha male, and there is nothing you can do, unless you challenge him again and subdue him. That's the way things work in the animal kingdom. Even with lions, you must never let the male that offers a challenge to win, once you back down you are finished. That's why circus trainers will tell you never to allow your lion to challenge you and if one did, never back down but punish him for insubordination.

What you need to do now to get back your respect and dominance is, buy thick leather boots and gloves, get a thick koboko, then go out and challenge him by giving him an order. If he refuses, koboko the hell out of him. He will attack but your boots and gloves should protect you. After you beat the hell out of him, he will bow down and submit and never challenge you again, or mark your house as his territory. This is how dog trainers subdue stubborn and even wild dogs.

If you can't do that, then sell him to a dog trainer or euthanize him. If not he will cause serious harm to you or someone you love.

Martini101:
Comparing COVID-19 with those ones already shows the limit of your knowledge.

Meanwhile,

Using every known metric, Obama trumps Trump. Trump rode on the success of Obama.

skywalker240:
A hypocrite Nigerian wants to remove a stick from the eyes of his neighbour and the mustard tree in his own eyes has already condemed him to blindness.


Why cant you compare the garbage ruling this shithole with the past administration in handling outbreak ?

The garbage ruling this shithole has handled this corona virus far better than those countries you worship and equate to heaven.

Comparing a highly contagious disease like covid 19 and a moderately contagious disease like ebola is an exercise is dishonesty. The past administration could not have handled covid 19 better that it's being handled now.

asapants:
Who wrote the corona virus script needs to be awarded. Well planned and organized...They've infected blacks over there, they'll start chasing all blacks outta China.

Na by force for blacks to stay in China? If the don't want you in their country, move to a country that's more hospitable or move back home.

Smithkafors:
And so?,why are u telling us,are they different from thousands of Chinese that tested positive ?

They are telling us because our people are very stubborn and do not obey rules. The Chinese are very stringent about their social distancing laws unlike us that disregard almost all laws including social distancing. When the Chinese starts arresting and isolating Nigerians due to suspicions of carrying the coronavirus, we will be screaming racism (not that the Chinese can be exonerated of racism though )

As a digression, I went to sabo market in Ikorodu today, and what I saw was social hugging, the crowd was just too much, hardly any space to even move.

garetz:
That's it!! no doctor suggested injecting people with disinfectants neither did Trump!! It's your fake news media that is misleading you liberals with bullshit!! Trump is not a medical expert so he was asking the experts if this was possible. He clearly says it's up to them and the medical doctors to check that out. Asking your experts about the possibility of something is not the same as telling them to do it.

You mean to tell me that Trump is not a medical expert? A trump that is heading the daily medical briefings on the coronavirus virus and has prescribed the miracle drug hydroxychloroquine for the cure of the virus? That's hard to believe.

You guys are more slippery than a snake swimming in engine oil. When Trump started promoting the miracle drug hydroxychloroquine, you defended the drug as if your life depended on it, saying Trump could not have prescribed the drug without expert advice. Now, that Trump has suggested injecting hypo bleach as the new miracle cure, you now change mouth, that no doctor suggested it, and that he was just suggesting that doctors check it out.

Even trump himself has said he was only being sarcastic and did not really mean doctors should test injecting bleach into the human body.

garetz:
They are deliberately trying to make it look as if it was Trump's suggestion to use those as Chloroquine treatment when he was simply referring to what other experts said they observed in their studies. You can't see the big difference here? He even went on to ask Dr. Birx if she had heard of those studies so from where did they get the headline that Trump suggests injecting people with disinfectants?
And you can see clearly from the statement that Trump was saying what he told the experts when they told him about the studies. You can see him clearly saying
"And I think you said you’re going to test that too. Sounds interesting, right? " And "so it’d be interesting to check that so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So, we’ll see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful." So where did he suggest injecting people with disinfectants?

Which doctor or even sane human would suggest you inject disinfectant into the body of a living thing not just humans to cure any infection? Your lord and master just just heard that bleach kills viruses and other germs, and immediately suggested that people should start injecting bleach. What are disinfectant used for if not for killing germs on surfaces. Disinfectants had been used for in hospitals for centuries, no one was crazy enough to suggest people drink or inject it. ( well, until stable genius came along ).

The one that got me laughing until my children started asking questions was this;


So, supposedly we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light


See Trump's light therapy below

garetz:
He wasn't suggesting anything, he was just talking about what Under Secretary for Science and Technology at the Department of Homeland Security, Bill Bryan had noted earlier that in their studies observations were made about how the virus reacts to certain things including UV light and various chemicals. Trump was just saying from their studies, if it was possible to make an injection out of certain chemicals or UV light then it could be effective because their studies showed the virus reacted negatively to them.

This is the full transcript of the press conference including Bill Bryan's comments,
https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/donald-trump-coronavirus-press-conference-transcript-april-23

that's if you can read because I know that liberals are lazy readers and that's why you are easily bamboozled by sensational headlines. You better take your time to read the full transcript or watch the full video of the press conference and may thunder fire you too if you dare tell me that it's too long for you to read

This is the quote the controversial part of the transcript;

Donald Trump: (29:46)
A question that probably some of you are thinking of if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposedly we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light, and I think you said that hasn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. And then I said supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. And I think you said you’re going to test that too. Sounds interesting, right? And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it’d be interesting to check that so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So, we’ll see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful. Steve, please.

So where is the part CNN faked or misconstrued?

I am sure you cannot the the parts I redded.

ThinkFreely:
Sorry, you are a trump supporter. Most of them don’t usually reason like a normal human being.
I understand your case

Trump already commanded his cult not to see reality but only what he tells them.

This is the order from Trump
"Just remember: What you're seeing and what you're reading is not what's happening."

So even if Trump rape their mother in the middle of 5th avenue in broad daylight, they would not see it.
