Godmother:
Hi. What kind of posts do you make on steemit and how do you withdraw? I saw you can withdraw to your local bank account, but does that include Nigeria bank accounts?

After reading this question of yours I found my way to the site. I have been a member making posts and earning money for over two weeks now. You earn cryptos which you can sell just like dollars to exchangers. There are people who have been there now in Nigeria for a year. You are not going to become suddenly rich but the time you spend there will be rewarded if you put in work.

MhizzAJ:
It's a very important part of the marriage ceremony
It's just a way of thanking the brides family for taking care of her....i think it's also a form of commitment

There is no commitment that is bigger than the legally binding contract that me and her are going to sign. All those other things are just obstacles to the wonderful life we want to share.

Ladyhippolyta88:
I agree this brideprice thing should be optional and not by force.There is nothing anybody can tell me to make me support brideprice,to me you are buying the lady and no amount of money can truly buy a human being.And some families no longer accept brideprice because they know culture evolves and it is not static.Truth be told this issue of brideprice is not applicable to the 21st century,the time when it was paid was when women were seen as second class citizens and also as properties.

Exactly, that's the point. When a practice has become a problem, it should be abolished. Our women are not properties for sale.

MhizzAJ:
kukuma marry her free of charge nah
Dunno what's wrong with men nowadays

Of course, that is what I want to do. I want to carry her away for free. It happens a lot outside this country. Why not here?

Airforce1:
Get her pregnant and act like you don't care

Na her papa go beg you come carry her for 20k

Correct one, brother. I have always respected your opinions on this forum.

So, I work to be a responsible adult, get my ish together and find a girl who I dig that also digs me. We say we want to take care of each other for the rest of our lives. Her father believe me just as I also believe the man. Now we tell the man we want to get married and they say they want bride price and other things. For what exactly? Why do I have to pay to carry the woman. She be ram? Fine girl, are you a ram?

Mind you I am a man in my 30s o. Be careful how you talk to me, ladies
You may just piss off a prospective suitor.

safarigirl:
Reno, why are you warning the foolish patronizers of slay queens?

The only reason slay queens exist is because they have customers, once men stop lusting after big breast and big yansh amongst other superficial things, slay queens will reduce

Men are move by what they see, so the mugus will never be in short supply.

And issa business mbok.

It's true that men are moved by what they see, but that is not the reason why many would do anything to have slay queens. It is the materialism promoted by our male dominated society that makes a man measure his self worth by what he possesses rather than who he is. You see, normally when a man sees that a woman is just interested in his money his sexual desire dies. The people who like to pay for sex and visit prostitutes are high most of the time. A good reason for this is they don't want to hear their own thoughts criticizing them. But because we have come to equate being rich with being worthy of love, a woman who says she is not a prostitute will sell herself to the highest bidder and you who wins the auction will be proud of yourself. Many will even go ahead to marry that woman. People have missed it completely. I don't blame slay queens, we the men run the society. It is how we lay our beds that we'll lie on it.

Ezyp:
Good. But now that our eyes are opened, what's stopping us from doing the right thing. Abi dem still dey scope us.

Who tell you say your eye don open?

cstr1000:
Even if it this story is true, it is the product of all the previously installed generating capacity from OBJ down to GEJ.

Buhari has not increased our generating capacity by even one mega watt. They are still talking of awarding contract for a dam or something.

The meaning of delusion is holding on to a belief despite evidence to the contrary. Many mental disorders have delusion as one of their symptoms. Don't go and run mad because you don't want to believe things are changing in the power sector. It is not about what you want to happen because you wish desperately to be right, it is about what is best for us all as a nation.

Xbee007:
Dude, I am Yoruba! I just don't like the fact that all you do on NL all day is hate on people that are not you. NL used to be a fun loving place to be till y'all tribalist took over. I can't even recommend NL to any of my friends because of all the hate filled comments everywhere.
Change for better it is not too late. I am sure you have another account you just use this to perpetuate hatred and tribalistic comments.
Start by deactivating this account and go back to your original account where you will always feel reluctant to hate.

Blame Seun. It is all business to him. Controversy is good for traffic. All the laws he has made on nairaland regarding tribalism he is not enforcing. He is just a capitalist who does not care about the harm he is doing with his forum. Everybody who has been here knows that tribal wars is nairaland's unique selling point.

Please ke? You don dey beg already. Arsenal go rape una today. You go cheechumchin.

I like wenger's team selection today. Lacazette striking ozil and Sanchez feeding him.

Xisnin:
You lack comprehension skills and are very myopic in thinking,
Psychiatrists can detain you indefinitely if they have the
proper motivation: monetary or repaying favours.
How do we know you are not mentally insane yourself?
Just because you are a theist doesn't make you immune to
mental illness. Even the constant talking and shouting at
invisible entities could drive you insane if you are genetically
prone to mental illness. I therefore recommend that you
admit yourself to a mental institution to ascertain your sanity.
And about your last sentence, that says it all, it is almost impossible
for a theist to discuss issues without bringing irrelevant issue to
buttress their bigotry.
Are you being haunted by the ghost of feminists? That may be another
sign of mental illness.

I lack comprehension skills? You assumed the guy is not insane without the poster proving it. You assume also that the psychiatrist is in connivance with people to keep a sane man in a mental hospital without it being proven in the post, and you also called me theist without me saying I am and you tell me I lack comprehension skills?
You are a real asset to the atheist community.

Xisnin:
They are illiterates, they knew that an adult can't be detained by a babalawo or pastor
hence the psychiatric route. My use of illiterate here means lack of proper education.

Then I am sorry to say that you are the illiterate. A psychiatrist will also not "detain" a sane person. If indeed he is sane he has nothing to fear. Those who took him there have demonstrated that they have proper education from the information we have. It is you who is making uneducated assumptions. Just because he is an atheist does not mean he is immune to mental illness. We all are. Even the rejection he must have suffered from his family members for being an atheist openly can drive him insane if he is genetically prone to mental illness.
You guys need to calm down. You are beginning to look like feminists who interpret every single thing as male oppression.

Xisnin:
Fanatical family members are likely to be the culprits,
bunch of illiterates.

If they are illiterates, believe me, it is not a psychiatric hospital they will take him to. Na babalawo or pastor. These people are doing what educated folks would do.

Nigerian man kidnapped for his atheist views

here is the post shared by the nigerian atheist society on their facebook page

We just received information that Carl Maobi, a member of the Atheist Society of Nigeria is allegedly being held against his will at
Ejebronus Psychiatric Clinic, Osina Ideato South, Imo state.

Carl, an ex-Jehovah Witness was bundled into a car and driven to the above location without his consent and an adequate explanation as to what is happening.

Please we request that anyone who resides close to the area can reach out to him and give us feedback.

You can reach us at info@atheist.org.ng or call Bayo Opadeyi at 08122356701

Treat as urgent. Thanks!

Seun are atheist immune to insanity? You people have been covered by the blood of Jesus, haven't you? You see why I say your movement is a religion?

Murderers

But you don't know that they are murderers now. May no one accuse you wrongly.

BlowBack:
But is there any Christian text or act by Christ Himself that justified the enslavement of Africans?

Because some Europeans who identified themselves as Christians justified slavery of Black Africans does not translate to Christ approval

I was responding to what you said here:


"The Europeans never used religion to justify the enslavement of Africans rather they justified the enslavement of millions of Africans citing contemporary scientific views mainly drawn from the Darwin evolutionary theory. "


Christians Europeans quoted the Bible. That is religion. Whether or not that is what the Bible means is another issue. You yourself have mentioned what Islamic clerics have said now in our time to support slavery. Some Christian European clergies too during the slave trade era supported it, even with the scriptures. Your only point is that Christianity as a whole has moved on from it but they have not. They are still supporting it in this century. It is also true that it is the Christian West that made them abolish it in many Islamic countries.
Also in the Bible the apostle Paul encouraged slavery. Paul should have said expressly that Christians must free their slaves but he did not. He told slaves to be of good behaviour.

aribisala0:
It was inspired by Christian Religion in exactly the same way that Islam inspires terrorism Boko Haram and such like.

The hate for Jews was a very "Christian" thing

It is true that Europeans persecuted Jews for killing their Messiah for many centuries but Hitler's Nazi regime's ideology of the superiority and purity of the Aryan Race and the purging of inferior races had nothing to do with the Bible but was from German myths and legends and pseodo-science of that time.

BlowBack:
The Europeans never used religion to justify the enslavement of Africans rather they justified the enslavement of millions of Africans citing contemporary scientific views mainly drawn from the Darwin evolutionary theory.

It was Christian values that put an end to the European slave trade.

And it is very important that we revist Islam when discussing the latest Libyan slave auctions. Because it is only Muslims that have so far engaged in this dastardly act.

From Shekau boasting of selling abducted Christian school girls in slave markets to the Islamic State auctioning of captured Christian, Yazidi and Shia women to the existing slave markets in Mauritania.

Muslims have no problem against slavery a their quaran justifies capturing and selling off of Kafirs.

I like what you are doing here because it addresses the foundation of a problem. This will help a lot of Muslims realise that they are not loved as black people. Their prophet did not care too much for blacks. However it is not true that Christian slave traders did not justify their practice of slavery with their religion. I have read where white slave traders called blacks the cursed descendants of Ham. That blacks are condemned by God to be slaves. They did abandon that belief eventually but some of them used it as justification once.

Acidosis:
This shameless ediot has started again?!

Libya is a Muslim dominated country with over 85% Sunni Muslims. Why are the Sheiks, Imans, and Sultans not talking about the evils Libyans do against our Nigerian brothers?
Where is the Sultan of Sokoto, what about the Emirates in Kano? Why are they mute? Why can't they save the innocent "One-Naijerian" brothers in the hands of their Libyan Brotherhood?

Why must it be the Pastors taking blames for the inadequacies of a nation that has been ruled by the Northern powers that be?

Whoever employed this ma d man as a radio station worker has committed a crime against humanity. People like Freeze shouldn't be heard when they talk.

He is talking to Christian leaders as a Christian himself. Muslims will talk to their own leaders. If a man is put on a pedestal as pastors are they should do better than the people who put them on a pedestal, not worse. If they don't, it means it's all hype and nothing. Athink you get now?

Kwenty:
Men are very difficult to please in this life. You see your mentality. Because she slept with your friend, she is labelled cheap and your foolish friend captured the moment on video. When a woman is going out with a man for money, she is called a gold digger. If she have sex for money, she is a prostitute and if she eventually have sex for no cost, she becomes cheap.
You people should leave women alone for goodness sake.

Na small boy dey worry am.

Bede2u:
Nigerians listen.
We are ALL Nigerians once we leave the shores of Nigeria. Foreigners dont know Igbo, Hausa or Yoruba.
Team effort is what will make us like our neighbours who have gone ahead of us.
Ghana is now gradually becoming a developed nation because they dropped tribalism and focused on issue-based politics. Same as Rwanda, Namibia etc.

Now lets answer these questions;
1. Has Buhari improved the economy?
2. Has Buhari made Nigeria more secure?
3. Has Buhari improved unity in Nigeria?
4. Has Nigeria's global influence increased under him?
5. Has the private sector and small businesses thrived under Buhari?
6. Is government less wasteful under Buhari?
7. Are Our hospitals better now?
8. Is education better now?
9. Are our roads and national infrastructure better now?
10. Do you feel Nigeria has improved overall?

My answers to these are;
1. No
2. No
3. No
4. No
5. No
6. No, govt is still wasteful
7. No
8. No
9. No
10. No, Nigeria has declined since 2014

Vote according to issues, not tribalism. Nigeria will never divide. If we dont come together to develope, our children would still be hustling to go to Europe through Libya tomorrow; Lagos will still be over-crowded
Give mediocre presidents only one term. We did it in 2015. We can do it again in 2019. Lets not reward Buhari with 2 terms. Let Obj be the only president with 2 terms until we get another good, deserving president irrespective of tribe.
#GiveMediocrePresidentsSingleTerm
#RestructureNigeriaNow
#SayNoToTribalism
#Atikulate2019

Na your last hashtag you take spoil everything.

Bede2u:
mediocre platforms.
Linda ikeji blog gets more traffic than nairaland. Check alexa

You are typing your wish. Linda Ikeji is not even among the first 10 most visited sites in Nigeria. Nairaland, last time I checked was top amongst Nigerian sites.

Danladi7:
seriously!..and contradictions like this one below


"Politicians scout SW because of their propagandist
machineries not voting power. If you need to be
projected, you need SW Media. Not that SW owns
the media, but all media houses are concentrated
there."

And some stupid unintelligent people still liked the post!

I guess this is our cross. Every country must have persons like this.
The whole of southwest supported Ribadu. How do you reconcile that with the fact that
Ribadu only won in Osun state.
Then Anambra has more votes than the southwest. Not even Kano that has the highest number of voters can say this. He just sat down and started typing his fantasies. He wishes this were the case and he had the confidence to type it. Those who liked it were also liking their fantasies.

If the movie has not been released or is slated to be released this weekend, he is just being a brainless, agabaya, attention seeker.

OFFICIAL336:
You are disgracing the Igbo Nation with your senseless begging.
Majority of Igbos will rather go for restructuring than your stupid presidency.
A vote for Atiku is a vote for restructuring.
Beggar-in-Chief.

The joker in Nigerian politics is Middle Belt. Win Middle Belt and you will win the Presidency. The SW gave a marginal vote of 500000 to APC while Anambra alone gave PDP over 600000 votes.

When SW backed Atiku in 2007, did he win? NO! When SW backed Ribadu, did he win? NO! When the entire SW was mobilized for Buhari, how many votes did they gave him? a marginal 500000 votes.

Tinubu or no Tinubu, SW can't give APC more than 600000 votes, which Anambra alone if fully mobilized for election can guarantee to PDP.

Politicians scout SW because of their propagandist machineries not voting power. If you need to be projected, you need SW Media. Not that SW owns the media, but all media houses are concentrated there.

Atiku himself is an Institution, which a very powerful Media centre ably led by an able Igbo man, Ibe. Don't forget also the Head of Presidential Media Team, Garba Shehu is Atiku very loyal boy, former Director, Atiku Media Office, head of Atiku Media Team.

If you believe Bindow will not join PDP next year, then you are not a Nigerian.

Like it or hate it, we are Atikulating. Middle Belt are Atikulating as well, NE will Atikulate also.

Sarrki abeg comment for this analysis full of lies. Too many lies, I no even know where to start.

I don't like zoning by principle because it always causes problems. If we want zoning we should put it in our constitution. Let's go for constitutional zoning. When it is the turn of the south every Nigerian will rally around the perceived best southern candidate, and when it's the turn of the north the same thing would happen.
If we don't do this, we'll always fight over zoning every election period.
