Spot on my brother. CTPlayer is a classic Nazi infiltrating this tread. He used to call himself Oyinbowithatan and the first day he came on this forum, I called him out with his overt racism and bigotry. How can a guy classified 185million Mexicans as rapist and drug dealers. It was yesterday the same skinhead was ranting about illegal aliens committing many crimes in US. Guess where he get that from ? From the play book of Trump and his Nazi buddies. The foools here that give him his useless likes are not even smart enough to know that the guy loathes them. I can understand the Nazi piece of Basura supporting his comrade in bigotry Trump but for our brothers in Nigeria supporting a vile racist pig named Trump is beyond appaling to me.

That's part of the primitive base human nature, some people hate themselves and their people, they love, worship and adore their oppressors and wish to be like them. Many Jews supported Hitler against their own people. It was Jews pointing out other Jews to the SS to be arrested and taken to concentration camps. Many Nigerians (especially those that hate Nigeria and other nigerians) would support anyone that hate Nigeria and even the black race.

What was Jonathan minster of agriculture known for ?

Why was he the most popular minister ?

Akinwunmi Adesina was popular for his fertiliser policy which greatly reduced corruption in fertiliser distribution to farmers and made it available.
No Jonathan minister increased rice yields per hectare.

Okoroawusa:
Which Jonathan?... David's friend?

It must be a mythical Jonathan. A Jonathan with special powers that was able by magic to get 8 ton per hectare of rice, and we were all eating Nigerian rice.

Lucasbalo:
That guy is a Nazi sympathizer and no wonder he love the racist pig Trump.

It's no surprise. Adolf Hitler actually became German leader by popular support and the NAZI party won majority seats at the elections. Trump and Hitler appeal to primitive base emotions of hate, bigotry and looking for scape goats for their failures. Hitler used the Jews as scapegoat, Trump is using immigrants, gays and liberals as scapegoat
They cloak all their hateful actions under nationalism.

Timbuktuo:
The pro-impeachment star witness. Ambassador Taylor's comments. Amb. Taylor gets his 'testimony' from the New York Times. . Anybody that supports this impeachment should be commissioned.

The left want to impeach Trump based on a New York Times article. SMH

You guys are pathetic, in a disposition of well over 200 pages, you bring in one page out of context and use that to discredit the whole disposition.

Ambassador Taylor was a war veteran, a silver star holder and an unblemished diplomatic career of over 30 years. In fact he was brought out of retirement to help handle Ukraine issues, and someone who cannot polish his shoes is insulting his integrity. Even Trump cannot hold a candle to Taylor.

garetz:
We have a “whistleblower” who hates Trump and was fired from the White House for leaking,

And his attorney who talked about starting a “coup” to impeach Donald Trump as far back as 2017

And we are supposed to believe this is legitimate?

What of the memo of the phone call that collaborated all the whistleblower's allegations?

What of the testimony of former Ambassador to Ukraine, ambassador Yovanovitch, who was removed simply because she refused to be used for an illegal operation?

What of the present envoy to Ukraine Kurt volker who also collaborated the whistle blowers allegations?

What of the EU envoy, Gordon Sondland who just 2 days ago admitted to a quid quo pro, thereby collaborating the whistleblower?

What about the testimony of Lt. Col. Alexander S. Vindman, who heard the actual call with the Ukrainian president and was disturbed by it, thereby reporting it to white house lawyers?

What about the press briefing by mick mulvaney admitting on national TV, that indeed there was a quid quo pro, Ukrainian president investigating Joe Biden for the release of military aid money already approved.

All these people collaborated the whistle blower, unless you are insinuating all these people are working together against trump,

midnighter:
He said he wanted to check her fertility...so what does it mean aside from getting her pregnant?

Which topic were you responding to??

You just comfirmed you were responding to a different thread. This thread says nothing about fertility check. Not everyone reads through all the threads on nairaland.

From the other thread, the poster is even implicating herself further. A guys too the time and expense to do proper introduction, he brought his parents and family to ask for your hand in marriage, your family probably gave him a long list of what to bring apart from a hefty dowery price, and the only one thing he wants, you are doing Virgin Mary. Na only a Joseph go fit marry you.

The issue about getting pregnant can easily be resolved between the both of them in a pillow talk after a hot round of sex. That's how thorny issues are resolved marriage. She could explain why she doesn't want to get pregnant and plead for medical tests instead.

Atlanticfire:
If you guys were not able to agree on something as serious as having a child outside wedlock, then your marriage would have been trouble filled with disagreements.

I think you did the right thing not going the route of being pregnant outside wedlock. How many of the people advising her to get pregnant outside wedlock will be happy to have a pregnant sister outside wedlock?

Who is talking about getting pregnant at all, before we start talking about outside or inside wedlock. You are probably responding to the wrong topic.
In the 21st century, various contraceptives are available to prevent pregnancies, except you are insinuating that women (married or not) must get pregnant after each sexual encounter. Even the simple timing method is very effective.

Op, if you need support for your brother's schooling send me a message, I will give whatever support I can muster.

You don't mean it. Are you saying you do not have any family member, close friend or someone you know in your area that needs support for schooling or other things? Have you been able to help those who ask for your help, before you start begging to help someone who never asked you for it.
I suspect you.

Bros ask any rice farmer lost millions to that bird nothing works except eagle which I don't have n can't buy

What is the bird called. How do others countries deal with it?

Blue3k:
No border closures wont increase crop yeilds per hectare. Mechanization does reduces labor cost, increases yeilds and profit. Nigerias rice production comes from more land being cultivated. People were investing in rice before the closure look at the charts. The farmers just couldn't keep up with demand hence all the imports.

The government already offers low rate loans through ABP. Have collateral also reduces risk for private sector investors meaning they wont need to charge as much interest. Only government is willing to lend below inflation rate as they've been doing.

You still do not get it, probably you don't understand economics or you are not a business man. Even if you are a businessman, you are probably a trader.

Machines are very expensive and require huge capital investments. My friend that into rice processing tells me he needs a rice sorter to separate the coloured rice from the white ones, as pure white rice has high value. He said the machine alone cost N8 million from Europe. Now if he borrows N8 million from bank at 25%, how can he pay back principal and interest if he has to contend with cheap smuggled rice?

Accessing government loans is a herculean task and government only provide loans for small scale farmers. Rice processing machines are extremely expensive. The full rice processing machines like boiler, dehusking machine, dryer, destoning machine, polishing machine and sorting machine costs tens of millions each.

In manufacturing and productions, recouping of investment and repayment of loans in the short possible time is the goal. After that goal have been met, the manufacturer reduce price to only reflect running and maintenance costs.

If cheap foreign alternative is available, local industries can never take off. China itself banned imports for 40 years to allow local manufacturers to germinate and expand, even now China strictly regulates imports. (This is one of the beef Trump has with china).

CTPlayer:
He has had a country club there for decades, Mar a Lago. So what is the big deal.

The big deal is he lived in new York for decades without paying state taxes among other alleged crimes. Thr United States District Court for the Southern District of New York is patiently waiting for his immunity to expire to descend on him.

After so many failed promises to release his tax returns, he is running from court to court to prevent it's release. What is he afraid of?

CTPlayer:
The Bidens are the criminals not Trump. People complain about aid to corrupt countries, then a President questions it he is the bad guy lol.

Who are the people that complained? So the only corruption in the whole country is Biden? What exactly is Biden being accused of? If Trump actually want to investigate corruption by US citizens, aren't there agencies given those responsibities and official channels to take?

So what about the killing of Kassoggi, should not Trump hold the Saudi government responsible and withhold any assistance, since Trump is so concerned about corruption in other countries?

Blue3k:
The lack of mechanization adversely effects agricultural industry productivity. Nigeria is only half as productive per hectare as other countries like India. According to their estimates Nigeria could double the productivity. If it did Nigeria wouldn't need to worry about imported rice competition.

The bans don't fix productivity issues with rice farming or agriculture in general. Farmers dont access to credit because they're risky because they dont have collateral. The land isn't theirs most of the time. Getting goods to market is also an issue for many farmers.

The bans will fix productivity issues especially with rice. This is because, with cheap imported smuggled rice, no one will invest in rice farming and processing. Rice farming and processing cannot attract much needed loan. Interest rates in Nigeria hovers between 25 - 30% per annum, how will farmers even pay the principal not to talk about paying the interest, when competing against cheap smuggled rice?

If the ban stays for a while and the investors in the rice business are able to recoup their investments and pay of bank loans, then after, they can reduce price to imported levels. That was how other industries like the telecoms industry grew.

‘You Have to Pay With Your Body’: The Hidden Nightmare of Sexual Violence on the Border
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/03/us/border-rapes-migrant-women.html

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/central-america-migrants-rape_n_5806972

You are a very hate filled person.

You mean to tell me all 130 million Mexicans are drug smugglers and rapist? In that case all 200 million Nigerians are fraudsters, all 30 - 40 million odd igbos are drug dealers, all 100 million odd Muslims in Nigeria are terrorist.

Have any of your relatives been raped by a Mexican? How many Mexican rapist have you encountered?

There is higher rate of crime in the southern border areas not necessarily because Mexicans are evil, but because those areas had a history of lawlessness and violence, remember the old wild wild west.

Your prejudice is worse than Trump's and you have the audacity to call someone else hate filled.

NwaAmaikpe2nd:
Lies from hell pit.

Your comment shows that you are pained that you lost your virginity in a mistake that is why you said such.

FYI I am a guy. Guys don't lose their virginity, they take virginity. Guys don't issue out blood during first time sexual encounters and having first time is no big deal as far as guys is concerned.

As a guy, virginity was not even one of my criteria, when I choose a wife. Apart from beauty and strong physical characteristics that I wanted my children to possess, I emphasised intelligence and strong will, or before I forget, good sex was of utmost importance. I can stand dead woods.

Only a woman who lacks self worth elevates virginity to the status of a Nobel price.

Mary the mother of Jesus christ is exalted among women today because she was chosen by God to bear Jesus christ which was only made possible because of her virginity.

Mind you,there are other women during her time but she was chosen for her piousness,piety and immaculate personality.

Even if we were to believe Jewish sorry roman folklore, Mary was a very young girl in her early teens. Most girls of that age was expected to be virgins, then and even now.
If she was a Virgin before giving birth to Jesus and marriage to Joseph, what about after, ,did she remain a perpetual Virgin. You mean she never reached orgasm.

Pre-marital sex is wrong and i will never indulge in what is wrong and an abberation before God and man.

Good for you. Pre marital sponsorship of families of supposed girlfriend is also wrong, it is also morally wrong before God and man. I wish you luck in the search for a man who would wait sex after marriage.
Just one advice, a beautiful flower has relatively short time to attract bees and insects to help it's pollination, it starts to wither soon after the height of its blossom. After which no insect would even take a look at it.

jerryunit48:
What The Apostle probably have a house in Abuja and he probably spend a lot of time there so that makes him a and also that makes him legitimate unless they have other reasons not to take his offer

Does he pay his personal income tax in Abuja?

Trump wants to turn the US into a monarchy. It seems his travels to monarchical countries like Saudi Arabia, UK, Qatar or authoritarian countries like North Korea and China seem to have intrigued him.

See the first cabinet meeting he held on assumption of office;

At Monday’s Cabinet meeting — the first President Trump had held with everyone on board —
White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus spoke up to thank Trump “for the opportunity and blessing that you’ve given us to serve your agenda and the American people.”

Priebus said he was offering words on behalf of everyone in the room. But one by one, pretty much everyone else seated around the table took the opportunity to lavish their leader with praise, too, as the media looked on.

“It’s an honor to be able to serve you,” said Attorney General Jeff Sessions. “I am privileged to be here,” said Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta. “Deeply honored.”

“What an incredible honor it is to lead the Department of Health and Human Services at this pivotal time under your leadership,”

Tom Price, secretary of that department, added when it was his turn to speak. “I can’t thank you enough for the privileges you’ve given me and the leadership that you’ve shown.”

When other Cabinet members got the opportunity, they offered more specific adulation.

Mick Mulvaney, director of the Office of Management and Budget, thanked the president for his “direction in pulling that budget together.”

Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao thanked Trump for visiting her department last week, relaying that “hundreds and hundreds of people were just so thrilled.”

And Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue, after noting that some of his colleagues had touted their international travels for Trump, served up this: “A lot of us just got back from Mississippi. They love you there.”

The one exception was Mattis.

Defense Secretary Jim Mattis was the most reserved in his comments, offering praise for the “men and women of the Department of Defense” but not Trump specifically.

How many of these ass lickers still have their jobs?

Imagine, ambassador Yovanovitch was told to tweet praises of Trump in order to keep her job; - https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1076156

It now makes sense why White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham made the stupid comment "John Kelly was totally unequipped to handle the genius of our great President"

So to keep your job in the Trump administration, you have to keep massaging Trump's bruisied ego. That's is another quo quid pro.

If the congress fail to pass legislation to block all the abuses being perpetuated by Trump, a future president whether Republican or Democrat might be embolden to go full dictatorial.

Yampotatocarrot:
Please, what is the name of the rice you bought for that amount?

Also, you posted the picture of the destoning machine, does that mean you did the destoning yourself or what?

A staff went to Abakiliki last week, he called to inform me that rice business was booming in Abakiliki and ask if he should buy me a bag. I told him I am skeptical of Nigerian rice, because the ones my wife had been buying in Lagos has stones in them. He assured me of the quality and educated me on the processes the rice goes through to make sure it is good. I then told him to send me pictures and videos, which he did.

He got the rice to Lagos, destoned, polished and bagged at N18,000k.

Below is the rice after it has been bagged.

My wife and children love the rice.

Freshbaba95:
Rice that is full of stone, and very expensive for that matter.

That is rice that was not passed through a destoning machine.

I bought rice from Abakiliki last week at N18k and it has no single stone. The only issue is that it was not as white as imported rice.

Below is the rice and the destoning machine

dubezra:
Not her terms and conditions but God's terms and conditions

Then she should wait for God to bring men according to his terms. There are numerous women on God's list for such men, and such men prepared to wait on God's terms are very few. Even pastors will not follow God's terms and conditions.

NwaAmaikpe2nd:
Happy first sunday of this month to you all.

Today suppose to be a happy day for me as it coincide with my mum's birthday which we have planned to celebrate.

But it turn out to be a dissapointment because my fiance broke up with me 6 hours ago.

I don't know where i wrong him o.

My only pain in this breakup is that he may withdraw his support financially in regards to my sibling schooling,which we now be my priority.

I have never fallen in love with a man before except him but he decided to break my heart.

I don't think i will ever love a man again for a very long time because it seems they are all same.

You don't know where you have wronged him, but you denied him sex for 2 years? That man deserves an award for man of the year. Most guys go don ja after 2 months.

Your only pain in this breakup is that he may withdraw his support financially in regards to my sibling schooling ,which is your priority.

You are a very selfish person. The poor guy is sponsoring your whole family and what have you given him in return? Nothing. Ordinary sex, you can't even give him, as if that is worth much. God saved the poor brother. I am sure your family would have bankrupt him with dowery and wedding demands if he had gone ahead with the wedding.

You say you have never fallen in love with a man before except him, but you just said your family is your priority. You love only what you get from him. Would you have still been claiming love if he is not sponsoring your family? You think he has no family member that needs sponsoring to school?

I pray you find a man you can dictate how and when he can have sex to and at the same time control how he spends his money.

One advice, sex before or after marriage has never guaranteed a successful marriage. So many other factors ensures a successful marriage.

GEEBITE:
Dont mind them as if they are forced to attend churches.When I was active in church work, only about 20-30% of membership pay tithe.Still we subsidise families in need of one thing or the other.I don't know the kind of church many of them attend that they think the tithe goes to the pastor directly.

If 20% of an average church with a membership of 5000 people pay tithes (10%) of all salaries and earnings, do you know how much that amounts to monthly? If we assume the average tithe is 5000, that's 5000 x 1000, with is 5 million monthly. We are not taking about offerings, first fruits, special offerings and gifts yet. Now imagine what someone like Oyakhilome that has tens of thousands of members in numerous countries collect as tithes every months.

When you were still active, can you tell us what your pastors use tithe money for? From all preachings, I have heard, tithe money is God's (pastor's ) money and cannot be questioned.

MelesZenawi:
I read your message....You try.

Nothing like southern....What we have is south and west... Cardinal points don't lie.

Even Judas denied Christ.

I meant to say south east. Abi you want tell me say south east Asia no dey map?

No be judas deny Christ, na Peter. Read your bible again.

The should ask Egypt what happened to them when they tried to nationalise Suez Canal and deny Israel unhindered passage of vessels. They lost Sinai Peninsular, which they regained after several years with abeg.

Although it runs through Egypt and commercially controlled by them, the canal is open to use by all vessels whether commercial or war vessels and in times of war and peace. Simply put, it is international waters running through Egypt and Egypt cannot stop anyone from using it regardless of their flag.

Even Israel dare not take over and block the Suez canal. During the 6 day war, Mose Dayan ordered the take over and closure of the Suez canal. The British and the French immediately sent warnings to the government of Israel not to dare touch the canal. Israel not wanting a war with Britain or France withdrew from the canal and left it open throughout the duration of the war.

The same thing with Panama canal. If Panama dare close the canal, the US will view it as a declaration of war.

maekkyrain:
All of ur bleeped up life, WO have ur family members ever helped....ungreatful beast like u,

Cool down, why are you so angry. Get some counselling.

His family is not collecting tithes and offerings with a promise for prosperity.

MelesZenawi:
West really disappointed sowore.

No single person to stand in for him.


You guys are really what people says u are.


From Ondo state through Ekiti to Osun down to Oyo straight to ogun right to Lagos even from kwara no one came out to say I stand for sowore...


All ages of activist as history doesn't lie, abandoned to their fate when the going gets tough..

Now Someone from Edo state is about to be the saviour to sowore bail's fulfillment....What you guys couldn't do for your own son.

Edo una try....well done though na same Oduduwa Sha.

West send am work? How can west stand for him when he want put san san for West Garri. He want drive a government out power that has a vice president from the west and an opportunity to produce the president in 2023. So he wants the west to lose out in the power equation?

The same situation with Dasuki or al mustapha. The north no send Dasuki to become Jonathan's ATM, so he was left to his fate by the north. Even people he dispensed cash to abandoned him.

The way out southern brothers are complaining, you would think they would fight for Ekwerenmadu if he was arrested for challenging the government.

Abeg make una follow me laugh. As I am laughing alone at work people think say I don de craze.

Seen.
Kudos to Oyakhilome. If other billionaire pastors build free schools for the poor instead of spending on vanities, Christianity as a whole will progress, and the society will benefit. That was how the missionaries helped improve education in Africa.

Dee04:
Where are the anti-pastors?.
They're probably blind now..
Daddy freeze and his disciples will still call it show off

The anti-pastors are in the same place as the pastor worshippers.

They are probably blind, because they are yet to see anything.

All we read are offers;

The Chris Oyakhilome Foundation International (COFI) has offered free basic education to 400 vulnerable children from conflict-ridden communities in Adamawa State.

You need spiritual eyes to be able to see offers.

Then, they are blind to the multi-million Naira school and health care facilities because no picture of it was provided in the post. I also know one needs spiritual sight to see the physical structures.

pazienza:
Nigeria = North is a landlocked area and in no position to be negotiating with Biafra for sea corridor, post Biafra.

North might be landlocked geographically, but politically it is not landlocked. The north can easy form an alliance with the west to get access to the sea. The north can even get access to the sea through Benin republic or Cameroun as they share borders and the Fulani tribes with these countries.
The south east on the other hand apart from being geographically landlocked are also politically landlocked. They have no friends and any alliance they purportly have is force or imposed. They want to impose an alliance with the south south with treats, insults and intimidation, not tact and diplomacy.

The only way you are keeping SS minorities interested in dead Nigeria post Biafra is via granting of total resource control and autonomy to them.

Just because the south east do not have oil in commercial quantity, they fail to understand oil politics. Small weak countries can never resource control. Oil is often controlled by powerful nations. Once Nigeria let go of Niger Delta oil, other countries would fight themselves for control. The various tribes and communities apart from being greedy are already at war with each other. The powerful countries will just arm various tribes, to kill each other while sucking the oil.
Even though the US says it wants to leave Syria, they have held tight onto kurd's oil fields, which Russia is not happy about, because Russia wants the oil fields.

Doing this eventual renders you impotent in these negotiations. Because the interest of those minorities, which would include avoiding opening theatre of war in their territory, while you enjoy peace in yours, will override your hateful ambitions.

How will there be war in our territory? How will a war between igbos and yorubas/Hausa-Fulanis be fought on our own soil. You mean the Igbo soldier will March from Umuahia and the Hausa soldier would march from kanu, they would then go to Yenagoa or Warri to fight.

If the igbos declare secession, Nigeria would have to take over the territory to bring it back, not leave it and invade another territory.

Either way, independent Biafra will not be same as seceding Eastern Nigeria.
Independent Biafra will be able to negotiate trade deals with member states of UN for weapons as a sovereign nation, and would have global clout and support, especially pertaining it's right to sea access.

You think buying weapons on the international stage is like ordering phone from aliexpress? Even Nigeria has to do a lot of lobbying to be able to buy weapons from the US, Russia, Israel, South Africa, China, etc., and you think a separatist group can just order weapons just like that.

The minute a group declares secession unilaterally, they would be branded terrorist by the Federal government, and it would be difficult for countries with diplomatic relations with Nigeria to do business with them.

gidgiddy:
I'm not talking about land borders, I'm talking about international water ways. The essence of using London as an example is to show that being landlocked is different from access to sea. London is landlocked city but has access to sea vis its water ways and handles much British shipping.

If Biafra turns out to be just the South East, it may be landlocked but it will still have access to the Sea via its water ways. Of course Biafra and Nigeria may have to reach an agreement on the movement of people and goods, however, Nigeria is duty bound to honour article 125(1) of UNCLOS which states:

Right of access to and from the sea and freedom of transit

1. Land-locked States shall have the right of access to and from the sea for the purpose of exercising the rights provided for in this Convention including those relating to the freedom of the high seas and the common heritage of mankind. To this end, land-locked States shall enjoy freedom of transit through the territory of transit States by all means of transport.


So anyone who thinks that Nigeria will have the exclusive right to do whatever it likes, or unduly prevent Biafra from having access to the sea, should perish the thought as international law which Nigeria is a signatory to prevents that.

You are approbating and reprobating at the same time. How can reach an agreement on the movement of people and goods and at the same time not have exclusive rights to do whatever you like.
Are you insinuating that Nigeria does not have exclusive rights on who it's allows into its land, maritime and airspace, because there is a landlocked country within its borders?
