My love for Israel is unquantified

Goldencheese:
I won't have replied you because I don't have time for religious bigots or haters. The world is not bipolarised through the lenses of Christianity and Islam alone. You have Judaists, Bhuddists, Hare Krishnas, Traditional Worshippers (Ogun, Oya, Osun, Amadioha) and many others who believe in what they believe in and it is their fundamental human right. In fact, Judaism came before Christianity and Islam.

But to let you know the inventions by Jews, let me start with Google (Larry Page and Sergey Brin, they are Jewish); "disk on key" (USB Flashdisk), metal detectors, security jeeps, elevators, electric wheelchairs, drip irrigation systems were all created by Jews. And to those you may not know, they also created 3G Solar, MobileEye, Indigo Digital Printing Presses, IMI Tavor TAR-21 and Python (Defence) and hundreds of others I can't list here. Use one of their products "Google" to find out.

Does that mean that Muslims or other people don't create things? No. At least, the Arabic numerals and other inventions by Arabs have changed the world.

So, I am not a religious bigot, never was and never will be but the OP posted information on a Jewish invention and I passed my innocent comment on it. I expect that you know it is my right and I did it not insulting or abusing or disparaging any individual or group.

Thank you.

Goldencheese:
Very true. It's a quiet leader in technological inventions.

Even without that evil dwarf, can you believe some southerners are still cheering and pushing for Atiku, another fulani northerner exactly like buhari? Any southerner supporting any northern candidate in 2023 is a traitor and enemy of the south. If Nigeria doesn’t split before 2023, if Nigeria must continue, then we must vote in a southerner who will reverse all the madness Buhari has done in 8 years, replace all leadership positions across the country with southerners and give them a heavy dose of the same nepotism treatment Buhari is doing now, and declare fulani herdsmen terrorists organizations and send the army after them, just like they decalred IPOB a terrorist organization and sent the army after IPOB. Buhari wickedness has really started to open the eyes of southerners, that we must fight for ourselves, and this is one advantage of this disastrous evil regime.

FarahAideed:
Nigeria under Buhari is even an embarassment to ECOWAS na ..World poverty capital

FarahAideed:
If he likes he should not open it , I wonder why ECOWAS is wasting time from suspending Nigeria for breaching the free trade agreement

Tobrasky:
Lol you guys are very good at concocting statistics, however outdated or outlandishly exaggerated... I give that to you, the million dollar question is, why aren't the Yorubas pushing for a separate country where they can harness all their natural talents and potential? cause the socio-political facts on ground, have proven that your people seem more content with the "One Nigeria" project, and seem to asslick and second fiddle to a Hausa/Fulani power bloc that one might consider inferior in nearly all indices of human endeavors to the Yoruba ethnic nationality. No ethnic group in Nigeria is more vociferously opposed to Igbos when they push for separation from that entity calles Nigeria. Anytime Biafra is mentioned or discussed any where especially on social media among Igbos, majority of people who without been invited chip in their unwanted opinions and insults... are mostly from your tribe... it's literally an anathema that baffles the mind at these point, cause I would expect the Yoruba with all their massive human and natural resources to want out of Nigeria more than any group... Except of course something doesn't add up.

Nigeria is one of the most diverse countries on earth not only in Africa. Which west African country as diverse like Nigeria?

Ghana: Akan makes up over 60% of the country with the closet ethnic group coming at 16%. So there is an overwelmly single majority.

Ghana has more than seventy ethnic groups.[7] Major ethnic groups in Ghana include the Akan at 47.5% of the population, the Mole-Dagbon at 16.6%, the Ewe at 13.9%, the Ga-Dangme at 7.4%, the Gurma at 5.7%, the Guang at 3.7%, the Grusi at 2.5%, the Kusaasi at 1.2%, and the Bikpakpaam a.k.a. Konkomba people at 3.5%.[8] 700,000 of the people living in Ghana are from China. [9]. They represent 2,4% of the total population of Ghana.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Ghana

Most of these African countries have a relatively small population and a single majority with relatively religious homogeneity. Nigeria is a mismatch it is just like having German, English and French in the same country, it will never work.

The problem is in ideology, the way an Hausa-Fulani man wants to live is different from the way a Yoruba man or an Igbo wants to live. We are too different to coexist in peace in one country. The problem is not the oil per se but the ideology and general way of life.

We can't build a country when we all can't even agree on what we want, how we want to coexist in peace, how we should tolerate one another, how we should value education etc. If we can't agree on all these how do we build a country?

Vaughanlanrewaj:
Very commendable but Rwanda still has a very long way to go. Please check their GDP next time and it will strike you that just our Dangote and Mike Adenuga is worth the whole GDP of Rwanda and Lagos alone is far ahead of Rwanda yet Rwanda is a country and bigger than Lagos in size
All these PR work you are all doing for Rwanda kolewek o. They should go and work as hard as Nigerians.
Nigeria did not use PR to overtake older countries than Nigeria in Africa like Liberia, Ghana o. We toiled and fought and toiled. Where is Ghana today?They were decieved and knocked off 4 zeroes from their cedis in 2007 and the new cedis has has been devalued 4 times and now old cedis 40000 old cedis equivalent of 1 new cedis yet Naira had lost value far less than that between 2007 and now. They decieved the ignorant Ghanaians with this kind of PR whereas they are poor

PlayerMeji:
Oga, which of the Gods are you referring to?


There is one which is ever merciful and one which is bloodthirsty and insatiable.

omohayek:
The same forces would still be at work even without a drop of oil, given the vast disparities in educational levels and industrialisation between the regions, not to speak of access to the sea.

Many Nigerians like to deceive themselves that the predominance of the SW is something new and owing to the oil boom years, but in truth the overwhelming preponderance of economic activity in Nigeria has always been in the region around Lagos, and this was true even before there was a “Nigeria” to speak of. If anything, the original justification for extending British rule inland was supposedly to secure the “crown jewel” of the Lagos protectorate. It’s no accident that Zik could only look on impotently as Awolowo introduced universal primary education in the Western Region, or that Ironsi was so quick to introduce a unitary government.

Even if the north were to miraculously overcome its educational deficits overnight, there is no chance that its elites would ever willingly forego access to SW tax revenues or free usage of the Lagos ports. The other side of the coin is that a powerful Yoruba secessionist movement would be guaranteed to arise in the face of any prospect of returning to a 1967 status quo under which the rest of the country lives a parasitical existence off the back of the SW alone.

I am still walking from shop to shop looking for screen and calibrator for my ZIAOMI REDMI NOT 5A GLOBAL EDITION Since June 2017.

bravesoul247:
I totally agree with your no 1. People don't listen at all. You buy a device that is very unknown, then when it gets spoilt, you'll be looking for parts everywhere. It's a no brainer to me

Kennyswagz1:
split the damn country let everybody go and form progressive nations for theirselves free from fulani and hausa

israelmao:
It's true that there are many other natural resources.Even the amalgamation of Nigeria became before oil discovery in 1956 but how many of our natural resources are being tapped like crude oil and how many give us revenue like it?The reason why the force marriage remains is crude oil and the reason only core north feel uneasy to join the bandwagon of those crying for restructuring is predicated on black gold.

mrvitalis:
Its not possible for cars to run on water ...calories of water is zero ...its impossible

oglalasioux:
Chai. That long before we start developing sense as a country? Oil is a curse to Nigeria.

israelmao:
I pray it dries up before then so that our leaders' brains will come alive and our creativity will be unleashed.We have undertapped our best human resource which is brain (mind).Again,crude oil is the bond of Nigeria's forced marriage when it dries up no one will push for restructuring again because everything will be automatically restructured.

omoadeleye:
You want Dangote to be depressed fa?

Day169:
This 'arrangee' marriage (Nigeria) was conceived by the couple's parents (colonialists), after an unwanted pregnancy (amalgamation) but it later waxed with love (oil).
But when the love is finally gone, what becomes of the marriage? The parties involved (major tribes) will eventually go their seperate ways!
PS.. but a divorce (disintegration) is hardly amicable. God help us!

Davash222:
Before then, we’ll have Tesla cars that will be running on water. I pity Nigeria then, this place will look like Somalia before then.

Charleys:
They've also adopted the Gregorian calender. Allowed women watch football matches, more too

CSTR2:
Your view is correct but simplistic.

Trump does not need Saudi for the Middle East.
The place can go to blazes for all they care. America is the largest exporter of oil now.
And Israel can handle its own.

What they cannot afford to lose is over $20 billion yearly in weapons sale from Saudi.

GMbuharii:
I don't give a damn about that if Edo is included in Biafra or not,I don't care.
Infact,Edo is more traditionally and culturally attached to the SW than any other region,buh that ain't the issue here.

Everyone's thinking it in the country buh only ipob is saying it to their faces.

And if it ain't now biting the yorubas hard,why are they launching Amotekun? please

And ipob ain't the one against resources control,true federalism, restructuring, regionalism.

When you rant against a policy a good and as beautiful as stronger units/weak centre,where everyone will develop at their own pace with their own God given resources,then you are nothing but a pure unity begger.

Ain't you ashamed as a Nigerian,that after how many decades we still living in darkness! We still have to run to Abuja every month for survival! That as a state governor,I cannot provide, the bloody law prevent me some providing electricity for my people!

I got resources in my domain,crude oil,I can't touch,all I get is gas flare and dark smokes and ashes on my atmosphere,that's bulshyttt!!!!!
Which Niger Deltan is as rich as Indimi of Borno and Theophilus danjuma who are mallams but got oil billions?
The richest woman,Alakijawhatd her source of wealth?
Are these people igbos?

Please gedda4K!!!!

Lzaa immhotep just imagine this bulshyttt

GMbuharii:
Shut up there!! I am a proud son of the Niger Delta from Edo state,I ain't a bastard to deny where I come from.

It will do your life a whollotta good to free your mind from your igbophobic mentality as not everyone that gat a dissenting opinion of your blsht is Igbo. You got a second thinking coming if that's the shtt you think always,thanks.

tartar9:
Nigerian xtians(Igbo especially) are already coming out to attack the presenter for defending them against their lord trump

Awol1:
My girlfriend doesn't like Trump.

But I like the man.

She asked me why? Is because he's misogynistic and you wanna be like him and take women as shits?

I said na!

I like Trump because he is putting radical Muslims in their place in the world. If that's what he succeeds in doing in his 8 years, I'll be fine with it. I can endure to defer traveling to the States until the ban is lifted by whichever administration.

Before you call me Islamophobic, I want you to know that I'm a Pluralist who believes that "this" can be true while "that" is also true. That Islam is a true religion as much as Christianity is a true religion. With both worshipping a true God.

But what do you do when you have an intolerant neighbor who feels his way is superior to yours. And doesn't just stop at feeling superior but forcefully trying to convert you to his own way against your wish and choice.

Leave these terrorists and they will overrun the world while the UN and other world powers would interested in political correctness.

Ride on Trump.

You got a supporter in me.

A compensational speech.

GeneralShepherd:
I am an only son out of 4 girls and the last. My sisters paid my fees for my studies in the UK, before I could contribute financially they were the ones carrying the family.

I do not understand the obsession with having male kids, Kobe Bryant doesn't have a son, Tiger woods doesn't have a son, Obama doesn't have a son

manontree:
I like this answer even though you didn't present it properly

Africa is ripe with so much cultural adaptations of the male gender. This is obvious from the way the female are treated as second class gender and the male dominated the social strata. There were times no one bothered to even educate the female children and even the president stated on an international parlance that the women belongs to the "other room"

This dogma and the fact females move on to acquire their husband's identity and subjugated to his whims further documents why there is so much preference for male children

However the science of sex selection is not as straight forward as possible. Several reasons exist for this, not least the ethical issues of advancing knowledge to alter nature and bias against a fellow human being based on mere gender

That said for those interested in sex selection, it is a fact that the man has the X and Y chromosomes meaning if he gives the woman the X, she would produce XX (Female) as women have only the X chromosomes. If he fertilises her with the Y, they would go on to have XY, which is male. In this regard a man is deemed to be the gender determinant

Sounds simple. The body however is so complex that practically there are other factors that come into play other than this. Like you said the PH level of the woman is one. If she is highly acidic the Y chromosome won't survive to get any chance to fertilise the egg, leaving only the X which is stronger and able to survive acidic levels. The inverse is also true

This is a common reason why you see a woman having same gender children like the case here. It is one major reason and NOT the only reason. From experience once the PH level in a woman's follicular fluid is altered through medication, the issue of having numerous same gender children is solved. From experience I said. Some other doctors disagree with this but I know it works

Sadly most of our medical practitioners miss this or do not agree. I stand my ground. Should this poster still wish to have further children, discuss this with your health care provider and point him in this direction. You would thank me later

Kingspin:
Since the end of the war how is your Nigeria?

Dedetwo:
The bolded implicated few instances of your stream of thought. One of such instances remains you have nothing good to say about Igbo people. Another is the display of ignorance on the socio-political demeanor of Ndigbo. The people of Igbo do not have interest in one man's rule. It is not in their nature and shall never become. In addition, there are differences in human behavior when one searches for something as oppose when one finds it. The analogy of your friend telling a beer parlor story of Biafra and Kanu is silly at best.
