So u really retained that brain activity called "thinking"?
I thought u lost it to religious faith.
Please wake that ability up and free ur self from lies that shouldn't survive elementary school education.
We are a humans( the thinking man).

I hypothesize that there are two species of man on the planet today, there is the acknowledged Homo Sapiens (thinking man) and Homo Religio (religious man). Homo Sapiens survive by thinking while Homo Religio is only concerned about matters of faith. Homo Religio is prominent in Nigeria and most developing countries.

You are likely the ignorant one. This is because [b] most living things came from dust [/b]and return to dust. If serpent eats dust, do not let your uninformed mind think it is the dust on your window panes.


Keep studying. Keep an open mind. It is important.

Please can you educate me on how most living things came from dust?

You are not drowning my bother, the fact is that you are perfectly normal. The abnormality would have been if you do not get sexual urges if you saw a beautiful ass. You problem is psychological, years of religious indoctrination coupled with your disciplinarian father has instilled a deep sense of guilt into your mind for an absolutely normal process. It is the sense of guilt that is disturbing you.
Read this study, that shows that an average man thinks about sex than food.

Men think about sex just 19 times a day - nearly as much as food
They also think about food almost as much as sex - 18 times a day - closely followed by sleep, which crosses their mind 11 times a day.
This confounds the long-held stereotype that men think about sex every seven seconds while awake, amounting to 8,000 times over an average 16-hour day.
However, US scientists discovered that, on average, men still think about sex twice as much as women, who entertain the thought just ten times a day. Women also thought less about food and sleep daily, thinking about them just 15 and 8.5

You are even lucky, you have a nice kongi at your beck and call, some people here would pay a fortune to shine that kongi, so shine it well, but make sure you take adequate protection. Sex had never stopped anyone from being great, if fact most great men (including those in the bible) had huge sexual energy.

I already commended him. But can you please explain why he wears a self portrait? I am really curious to know.

EasternActivist:
That's not a urine but water dripping from the yam.

Also, when is it now a scientific law or theory that anybody wearing a cloth that has his portrait on it, is cunny and not to be taking serious?

My observation: your type is an hater, they twist fact to propagate their hate filled intentions. They are cunny and cowards and mainly from a specific tribe from sw.

Although I commend governor willy obiano for at least doing something, as most governors in Nigeria have nothing concrete to show for their entire tenure, the habit of always wearing a self portrait seem to convey some mental medical condition. Why would a man feel the need to wear a self portrait around in public? What is he advertising? Can any psychiatric doctor in the house explain the name of the medical condition?

emmy4life02:
My dear i support d APC b4 d election. but @ d moment i think it was d greatest mistake i hv made

Then you must be part of the 5%. Jokes apart, I do not know why you supported APC, but I think it is too early to regret supporting APC. If by the end of the four year mandate given the APC, the economy is as bad or worse than when they came in, then you will be justified in your regret.

The problem with the igbos is the people driving the agenda. Igbo's are blessed with intellectual giants but they allow touts to push their demands, so they use threats, tribal sentiments and insults to drive their demands. For example, the second Niger bridge is long overdue, in fact we need up to 5 Niger bridges for effective transportation link between the north and south. So the bridge should be presented as being a Nigerian project, crucial to the development of Nigeria, instead the project is being projected as being beneficial to only the igbos. Every Nigerian should be campaigning for the building of the bridge.

In Nigeria people support politicians for the wrong reasons, people vote based on tribal, sectional and religious sentiments. That is why the " it is our turn" campaign is more important that campaigns for jobs, water, food, education and other real issues. Politicians get into office not based on what they promised ( or at least lip service promises), but based on zoning formula, so it is illogical to such politician to perform miracles.

It does not matter if it took 16years but it was started when a true born SS man entered the seat and he would have competed it if he continued. If APC truly believes in the unity of this country and if governance is a continuous process why put a stop due to flimsy excuses

If it does not matter to you that it took 16 years for the bridge to get started by PDP, why would it now matter now for you to demand APC (a party you hate so much) complete it in 4 years. If it took a true born son of the SS 5 years to start the bridge, how many years would he have needed to complete it?
Flimsy excuse? Did you read the article? Why not point out the flimsy excuse as to why the project was suspended. Have you seen the contract details of the said contract the true son of SS signed? How much had been paid to the contractor? What of the allegations of $700 million paid for the contact? Should the government not investigate the contract before deciding on what steps to take next.

If GEJ could stretch his hand of fellowship to the North by building almajiri schools,airports, roads , hospitals and universities I'm the north without minding his base in SS why on earth will Bihari stop an already started project. We are not unaware of his hatred for the SE and SS Igbo we are not unaware of his loop sided appointments to the detriment of the ibos.

You guys talk about hatred for Igbos, but it you guys spew hatred the most. You hate Yorubas, you hate Fulanis, you hate Buhari, in fact you even hate fellow Igbos who do not share your opinions. Buhari's appointments appear detrimental to the Igbos because there is no lost love between him and Igbos. Besides, how many Igbos are in APC , 95% of Igbos support PDP. So it makes no political sense to waste time of people who would not like you no matter what you do.

What pains us is that some of our brothers still believe in the oneness of this country at the pain of the ibos.
Let me tell you, the library in UNN took over 2 decades to complete. History has it on record that while the project was ongoing the then minister of education jibrin Aminu visited the school and saw the magnificent edifice. He could not stomach his hate he asked wicked who is this big structure being built for.
Today to the glory of God the library is now completed and serving its purpose as a place for knowledge seekers.

Even if Buhari stops it one day that bridge will be done by another person and he will forever lose this golden opportunity to tell everyone including generations yet unborn even when he is gone that there ones lived an Hausa Fulani president who loved the ibos so much that he gave them the second Niger bridge.

IBB did not start the 3rd mainland bridge but his name is synonymous with it for having completed the longest bridge. For that singular reason Lagos state cannot forget him when the history of Lagos is told.
It will only do him a lot more good to try and complete it. At this stage PMB has seen it all the only thing he can be doing is to leave a good legacy behind
The country is in his hands anyhow he likes let him for it but he should not forget this is another 2nd chance he has to right his wrongs. Not many have the opportunity of a second chance.

You are talking about jubril aminu that was minister more than 30 years ago? What of all the ministers since then? You guys had Dr. Obi Ezekwesli as education minister, why did she not not build the library if it was so important to igboland.
Igbos has 7 governors, more than 20 senators, more than 60 house of representative members, numerous ministers and other important political positions, why can these political representatives push and promote the igbo agenda? If the igbo governors or the igbo senators advocate for the second Niger bridge, i am sure the FG would be left with no choice but to listen. I find it strange that it is kanu and some Aba traders and some unknown entities on social media that are pushing the igbo agenda.

totorimi:
Gov Rochas Okorocha should now show us why on earth he is in APC if this special project that is dear to the SE and SS people can be stopped by this tribalistic and northern party government.

Why on earth did Ikedi Ohakim, Sam Egwu, Martin Elechi, Theodore Orji and all the PDP governors of the South East in the last 16 years, remain in the PDP if this special project that is dear to the SE and SS (igbo) people was not built. You people loved the PDP and would continue to love the PDP, despite not building the bridge, so why should an APC government you hate so much build it. Would you start liking APC even if the government build the bridge? Would you people vote for APC because they build the bridge? I doubt it. If the bridge was that important to south east, you people should have made it a campaign issue before pledging your votes in the last elections.

divinehand2003:
STRONG INSTITUTIONS WILL BRING ABOUT A BETTER NIGERIA THAN HAVING STRONG MEN AS LEADERS.
I totally agree with you Sir on this point because the present so called strong man we have as president of Nigeria has totally failed with his change mantra. A very big disappointment indeed.

This is like the chicken and egg question, which comes first - Strong men or strong institutions. It takes strong men to create and run strong institutions. Institutions don't run themselves.

yaki84:
I disagree wih the corruption aspect, corruption didnt send those guys outta nigeria but policies.
do u know foreign investors like investing in nigeria because they know they can cut corners with the help of nigerians fronting for them?
bobo it is the policies that is driving them away not corruption.
corruption thrives in public sector not in private sector.

if u r talking of multiple taxation that isn't corruption but govt policy.
siemens, vodafone, virgin atlantic left because of maybe multiple taxation but not corruption. who r corrupting them or looting their funds?

Yes bad policies discourages foreign investments, but corruption drives big investors from western nations like European countries, the US, Canada, Australia and japan. In these countries anyone caught to have committed a crime abroad is prosecuted and punished back home. The Vodafone guys that bribed ibori had to face the law in their own country. Read up on why Richard branson took his virgin airways out of Nigeria. It was solely due to corruption. Investors can work around bad policies , but it is impossible to work around a corrupt system, unless you participate in the corruption. That is why the Chinese, the Lebanese and the Indians thrive in corrupt environments despite bad policies.

lordnicklaus:
Lol!! See what too much science has done to people's brain. I am also a science student but when it comes to matters like this, science is just a bonus....


Scientists claim the earth is millions of years old but my question is: were they there when the so called Big Bang occured?

They also say the solar system was created by accident yet everything in the universe follows a series of order or universal code which they do not defy....... If the universe came by accident, why is there order in it? For example: all goats eat grass and no goat eats meat, is that by accident? Lions eat meat and not grass. Now if the universe came accidentally, you would at least see a goat eat meat and a lion eat grass........



I have seen a picture start burning for no good reason, is that anything science can explain?


A snake once swallowed all the money my aunty made in her restaurant business. Someone shot the snake lots of times but the snake mysteriously vomited anullets and kept on swallowing the money..... So my friend, it's not all things that science can explain

Science student indeed. Please change to the arts - especially literature. You will make a good story writer.
Which science told you the universe is anything but orderly. Yes, there are pockets of orderliness here and there, but the universe is a very chaotic place. With asteroids, slaming into planets, stars going nova here and there, galaxies colliding ( our milky way galaxy is on a collision course with Andromeda.). Unless you want to tell me that these imperfections were caused by man's sins also.

yaki84:
that means buhari shud stop wasting n depleting our reserves in the quest of marketing n luring investors to nigeria.

Luring investors? You do not lure investors, they beg to come. Iran is not begging investors and yet many of them are lined up to invest in Iran after the sanctions has been lifted.

China did not need to lure US investors before they closed shop in the US and opened same in China. Once you put in place infrastructure and conducive corruption free business environment, foreign investors will troop in. It was corruption that drove the likes of virgin airlines, Vodafone, Siemens, etc, away.

The Nigerian business environments is too cumbersome and difficult for genuine foreign investor.

ibedun:
You are highly ignorant! And I bet you have never left Nigeria (let alone Africa) in your life. There is international politics and economic structure. There is status quo. There is a reason some countries have nuclear and chemical biological weapons in their possession but yet do not want other countries to develop the same. There is a reason why some countries are almost permanently rich and others are permanently poor. Have you ever heard or read about the WTO? They have already designed the templates that will force Africa to remain dirt poor for the next 500 years. Portfolio investors are profit seekers not "investors".

Which investors are fleeing from Nigeria ? Which investors came to Nigeria in the first place? The only investors that comes to corruption infested country like Nigeria are the Chinese, the Indians, the Lebanese and lately, the south Africans, the western investors only engage in portfolio investment. Portfolio investors are like predators, they prey on weak economies. They do not create jobs or add value to the economy.

The same west that imposed SAP on us, which we are yet to recover from are still the same people telling us how to run our economy.

seunny4lif:
None
Nigeria should break up abeg
We are not one and can't never be one

If Nigeria should break up because we are not 1, then into how many pieces should be break ? The SS are not one, the north are not one, even the south east are not one as there are many subtribes, clans and kindred in the south east, who will rule? with all the struggle for power as they presently do with governorship elections.

S247:
GOD knew the devil is very cunning to decieve them,that was why HE gave them the INSTRUCTION beforehand.And HE also knew that the outcome is death,and HE already told them.That's why people die.Initially man was made to live forever.

Abeg which instruction did God give them before hand? Did God warn about the devil? Did God warn Adam and Eve the devil is also a co tenant (neighbour ) in the garden of Eden?

Vanity. And how does where the president comes from help put food on the table, provide job for our army of jobless youths, and provide quality education for our children.

No wonder black Africa will remain backwards for the next 200 years. Our priorities are obviously misplaced. Imagine the main campaign issues in the US elections being the race, region, age or even sex of the next president.

Fadman4real:
You don't understand what I said, I simply pointed out that because we allowed sin into the world. God's creation became corrupted, and that is the reason why we experience this things.

But not to worry we have a perfect world waiting for us when this world finishes it's course.

Like plaetton said, it is a tradegy to our educational system to have lecturers like you teaching students that earthquakes, hurricanes, solar flares, novas and colliding galaxies are caused by man allowing sin into the world.

According to your mythology, it was not man that allowed sin (Satan) into the world but your God. Your God is said to have banished Satan to earth (of all planets in the universe ), knowing how dangerous he is.

christinie:
Lol take it as you see it.

His lack of INCOMPTENCY is the reason why they want to impeach him.


Be looking at English. Even impeach is not correct but we use it daily here.

Did you attend Jonathan's almajiri school? First you wrote INCOMPTENCY , then you wrote lack of INCOMPTENCY . Someone that lack incompetence is highly competent.

ElCount:
Common sense alone tells you that evolution is false. Go back and study the evolution account it is highly incompatible with the fossil record besides extinction and evolution are two different things.

Common sense alone tells you evolution is false? So what does common sense tell you? That the whole expanse of the universe was created by a white bearded Jewish man, using Jewish words, pronouncing all living things into being, but deciding to create man from clay? Common sense indeed, maybe common sense of second millennium BC mesopotamia.

Who says evolution and extinction means the same thing? Since it is accepted that over 95% of all animals that have ever existed on the planet are extinct, how then do you expect to draw the evolutionary tree of life from the beginning without extinct animals dominating?

Now look at this 95% of animal fossils are aquatic invertebrates and even the vertebrates discovered were mainly fishes and aquatic creatures, of the terrestrial life forms a whooping 98%(approx) are plants so what you are telling me is that as complex and numerous as the animal life forms that exist today are they evolved from a meager 2%(approx). This hilarious! I don't know about you but I think there is more dignity in being created by a supreme being who is perfect and Almighty than having to think I evolved from some amoeba. Its all common sense

This your statement above actually verifies evolution. First 95% of fossils are aquatic animals because fossilization process favours aquatic or marine creatures. For animals to be fossilized, it has to be covered up with mud or clay immediately after death, else the soft tissues of the animal would quickly decompose, eaten by other predators or simply disintegrate. Land creatures stand very little chance of being fossilized. Secondly and most importantly, marine creatures were on earth for billions of years before ever venturing onto land. According to modern evolutionary theory life started on earth in the primordial oceans or lakes some 4 billion years ago, but life only ventured on land about 500 million years ago, so it is logical to expect far more marine fossils than terrestrial fossils.

You arguments is now about dignity? Now what is dignifying about being created solely to be an amusement object of a Jewish God (in shape of a white bearded Jewish man), sitting on a throne high up rewarding or punishing according to this whims and caprices. Is it not more dignifying to see yourself as part and parcel of an evolving universe?

Akanni, who expressed his gratitude to the governor, said: “I can authoritatively say that the governor is a great leader and great mentor. He remains a very honest man who also stands by his followers. I was so sure that he will fight my cause while in detention and I was not disappointed.

“The DSS asked me so many questions about the governor and I stood my ground. Governor Fayose is one man that I can never betray because he is my helper and my mentor. He has done a lot for me.

“I advise all of us to stand solidly behind this man. Any attempt to betray him will lead to your own downfall. I must say that the DSS is bent on destroying this democracy,” he said.

And this is a member of a state assembly that is supposed to check the executive. The state assemblies in Nigeria is a farce and just a waste of public money.

ElCount:
if evolution were true how come after eons human beings, animals and plants as we know it have failed to evolve into something different. Since you believe in evolution its safe to assume you have a protruding tail or something out of the ordinary. Please don't be deceived

What do you mean after eons? Homo Sapiens have just recently arrived on the evolutionary tree some 200,000 years ago. 200,000 years is too short a time to evolve into a completely new specie. Why would a human need a tail? We do not live in trees or need it for stability while running. In fact a tail would be detrimental to our survival.

asalimpo:
You'd be living in great denial if you are trying to say that man is not infinitely more intelligent than any other specie on the planet. fyi, the 97% is a conservative figure. I'd put it at 99% and i'm only being kind.
The rest of your argument goes into saying why man is so - not necessary.
Evolution, showed bias when distributing intelligence- pouring everthing it had on one specie while leaving
the others to lick the pot.
Brain size/brain ration - dont matter. Evo showed biase.
Again, i said it clearly , evolution equipped other animals to adapt by making them able to adjust physically, why did it not do only that to man?! -
the giraffe grew a long neck.
birds learnt to fly, etc
but man, ddint adapt physically, evo gave him intellectual acumen- why didnt evo just hone his body
and fix his problems - loophole!

why other animals couldnt come up with calculus is simply because, they licked the platter on intelligence and all their wits are for is mating and hunting, and sometimes dodging death. dumb beasts.

"You cannot train any primate to speak any language because ... " - intelligence can make a way
. Any animal half or one third as smart as man would have demonstrable , even formidable works to show.

For now all other creatures are dumb beasts. They dont even know their n.aked!
or that crapping about is indecent. That's how dumb they are- so much for debating how much more intelligent they are.

Arguing with you is like arguing with a tape recorder on automatic playback. He just repeats the same thing over and over again without listening to the arguments.
I ask you to define this your nebulous intelligence which you hypothised that only humans possess, you are talking of calculus and language. I provided examples of highly intelligent animals but you completely ignored them because they do not fit your definition of intelligence, so i asked again, how do you define intelligence?

If we are to measure various aspect of this intelligence, you will find humans would not be the best in any of them.
For example;
- Elephants have far memory ability than humans.
Bats have far higher audio and vocal range than humans. See below for range of frequencies perceived by various animals;

Human............................8 to 20,000 Hz
Elephant.........................1 to 20,000 Hz
Mice...........................1000 to 100,000 Hz
Pigeon........................low .01 Hz
Cat..............................100 to 60,000 Hz
Grasshopper.............high 50,000 Hz
Bat..........................radar 100,000 Hz
Noctural Moth............1000 to 240,000 Hz

- Bloodhounds have far higher olfactory range than human
- Owls have far higher visual range than humans.
- Dolphins have highly developed cognitive abilities.
As i have said, the edge we humans have is the possession of opposed thumbs on our fingers, without it we cannot materialize our thoughts. It is what gives us the ability to make and use tools. It is these tools that propel us to be the very top of the food chain and gives us dominance on earth. It is with these tools that we can extend our perception beyond what any other animal can perceive, it is with these tools we can extend our vision beyond this planet, and it is with these tools we can destroy the world.

No matter what a highly intelligent dolphin conceives in its mind, it cannot materialize it because it does not possess fingers with opposing thumb.

asalimpo:
Thank God you stopped, because its arguments like this that shw the ridiculousness of this doctrine called evolution.
"Am i implying that man intelligence and all other animals operate by instinct?"
- I said, by percentage, man has about 97% of all the intelligence there is. That's leaves all other species to scramble for the remaining 3%. Of course this figure is arbitrary. And i'm assuming intelligence is a finite, whole quantity. Going by that, Man has the lion share of whatever choas and randomness could distribute among the species, going by what man has demonstrably proved.

How much intelligence would it require to come up with a subject as complex as calculus?
How much intelligence would it take to understand how to put a vehicle on the moon?
Where has the pool of intelligence been centered , which species comes even a close second to
rivalling the dumbest man in intellect? What makes 97% an absurd figure?

Can you train the nearest primate or cattle to even speak your lingua franca!? - how much intelligence do they have?
Why the biase? Why the pre selection in a supposedly chaotic and random process?

You post betrays so much ignorance that i am perplexed. I do not even know where to begin to educate you.
Your 97% figure is so absurd it borders on fairly tale like fantasy. What is your measurement of intelligence based on? Is it cognitive ability? It it memory? Is it social organization? Is it communication? In all these man would not win first price in all these abilities.
Yes man possesses the highest brain size to mass ratio in the history of the planet and thus has higher general intelligence, but that does not mean other animals do not have some superior "intelligence" capacity to us? For example elephants are known to have far better memory capacity than humans, bees are able to build highly complex and efficient structures to store their honey, even octopuses are highly intelligent, they have some advanced spatial learning capacity, navigational abilities and use creative predatory techniques. They are even reputed to be able to predict outcomes of football matches .
The great edge Homo Sapiens has is the evolution of the opposing thumb. This allows us to turn our ideas into reality by allowing us to make and use tools. Without the opposing thumb, we would not be better off than a dolphin or an gorilla. We would be confined to gathering of fruits and leaves.

Other animals cannot come up with calculus because it is useless to them, they do not have the ability to use the equation to make tools.
The cannot understand how to put vehicles on the moon because they lack the ability to make vehicles at all.

You cannot train primate to speak my language because the structure of their larynx is different from ours and so cannot produce the wide range of sounds we produce. It is not necessarily due to lack of intelligence.

lilliesboy:
The Evolutionary vs Creationism debate has more or less led to irrelevant insults especially from Black Africans. I am NOT a CRAZEtian, MUMUslim nor belong to any (organized) religion, but I also don't quite accept Darwinism due to some inconsistencies and "subtle" racist trend in it. Darwin did not explain HOW these organisms came about - how they ORIGINATED. He only explained how these species/organisms evolved from one stage to the other through natural selection, but never gave us a detailed analysis of how LIFE began. For me, I just live life the way I see it; Nature's origin cannot be accurately explained by anyone as no human being was there when it came into existence. My mum and dad had sex and "created" me, not a god! The Adam and Eve creation MYTH remains a myth to me too, it is meant for kids.

You are not qualified to find inconsistencies in Charles Darwin's theory, you lack the technical depth. What is the racist trend in Darwin's theories? Are you sure you have read the Origin of species by Charles Darwin?

Charles Darwin ( or anybody else) cannot explain how organisms or life originated. He is a scientist, so he can only make inferences from study, observation and data. He had only data to explain differentiation and spaciation of living things (plant and animals)

asalimpo:
First of all, i'm not the result of chance. That a great mind like einstein or isaac newton were born isnt chance. God created them and gave them their wits and made them have opportunity to develop them.
They played a part though. They're many like them who died unnoticed, many whose destinies got aborted because they had no help , but that too wasnt chance.
So, your take on chance, is just your philosophy. My bible says, "Before i was born , He (God) knew me..." - is that chance?
But , if given than an event will occur one in 1million tries or 1 billion tries , then it will happen,
it would mean that the attempts would be made so many times before it occurs.
But in the case of evolution and the bigi bang, it didnt. It happened once.
Two, we are also talking of randomness- if i go to a crowded park and throw a cup of water in the air,
the chance that it will hit somebody is high. Random people will get wet, male,female, boy , girl, woman,
man, children.
The chance that all the droplets will hit only one person, is a mathematical improbability in other words,
impossible .
That's what happened when , randomness, occured and only one specie out of millions ascended into
intelligent form that ruled the world.
Was that chance? No.
Never.
It was pre selection. God created man and told him to DOMINATE the earth.
That's why Man, rules the air,water and land - the planet.

Your analogy


The evolution equivalent is that 97% of all droplets hit one person!- you call that chance?

I stopped science vs God arguments long ago. Both of them are incompatible and cannot achieve a common ground. If you want to discuss your faith, please do,but do not delve into the sciences of which you have little idea.

Great minds like Newton and Einstein were simply agents of the evolution of Knowledge or should i say intelligence. Like Newton said in his famous quote "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants", he acknowledged that he simply improved on existing works of others - evolution.

The fact that the micro world is ruled by randomness is not subject to argument, it is a universally accepted fact.

Your cup of water analogy is very faulty. Are you implying that only man received all the droplets of intelligence thrown up by evolution? Are you implying that only man has intelligence and all other animals operated by only instinct? I am sure you realize how ridiculous it sound. Man (probably being in the best position to the cup of intelligence) got showered the most, but all other animals also got some droplets of this rain of intelligence.

Enangson:
we are talking about corruption here. Using Football/Messi as a case study, if messi committed a foul on an opponent and picks up a straight Red Card in the Champions League final. And during the transfer window he signs for Arsenal. Will he be eligible to Play for Arsenal in Their first two or Three Group Stage matches in the champions league, Or he is now a free man simple because he change club? If you know soccer as you claim, Suarez transfer from Liverpool to Barcelona is a perfect example.

The key worde here are "committed" a foul and "picks" up a straight red card. Now how many of those APC members you have mentioned had "committed" a foul and "picked" up a red card in the last 16 years? If a politician has been found guilty of a crime, changing political parties would not make him eligible to contest for elections.

Junior66:
Na your own assertions ridiculous pass. Using your own example, if Pep Guaduola suddenly becomes the coach of Sunderland all Sunderland players will now become Messis, Ronaldos, Xavis, Iniestas and the rest? Will they suddenly start winning the champion's league and premier league with the same set of players? The only thing that changed is the leadership, the players are still the same. Take a look at the politicians in APC, how many of them are you truelly proud of? Are you proud of Saraki, Atiku, Tinubu, Amaechi etc etc? Abeg no provoke us o. Even if we ni get job, our wisdom is still intact.

If Pep Guardiola suddenly becomes coach of sunderland, it is possible Guardiola comes with Messis, Ronaldos, Xavis, Iniestas and the rest, will that mean all previous successes (and failures) of Barcelona under Guardiola will be awarded to sunderland?

2point5:
You're the one, quite ridiculous here mate. It's like saying because Pep Gaurdiola now manages Bayern Munich, when we talk about Barcelona's champions league winning teams, we shouldn't mention Pep's team. So because they are not in Apc, we should forget who they were in Pdp. #Rubbish

It is you guys that are saying that we should forget they were ever in PDP by saying that APC (a party that is barely 2 years old) destroyed Nigeria for 16 years. It is like saying claudio ranieri is a failure at leicester city because he failed at chelsea more than a decade ago.

lomprico:
Your analogy is ridiculous!

Please explain how Atiku, Amaechi, Saraki equals to APC? And i will explain how Pep Guardiola equals Barcelona.

OP's assertions are ridiculous. If Pep Gardiola moves over to mancity and comes with some Bayern Munich players, then Bayern's achievements becomes mancity's and the champion league trophy that was won by Bayern a few seasons ago be handed over to mancity.

asalimpo:
This is your philosophy of life.
Again, this is a question religion answers.
But that doesnt in any address the question at hand.
Which is, random chance and chaos could not have predetermined one specie to be far ahead of the rest.
mathematically, it is impossible(soft talk for highly improbable).
After you are born, you can enact whatever philosophy you want. In modern societies,
you are entitled to pursue you own happiness.
Want to make music all day? - that's for loafers (but its your wish)
want to drive cars for a living ? - they'll call you a never do well (but race drivers emerged from these set)
want to eat all day ? - tasters do that
want to lay around all day ? - no problem.
Dont trivialise the accomplishment of man- they're truly great. Amazing.
stop calling a car a box - that's an insult on over a century of knowledge and experiments in making more efficient transport devices.
We may scoff at religion and religious views, but people gave their lives to make this world
as comfortable and conducive for others- lets recognize and praise their acheivements instead of belittling them.
