Felimax:
Do well to repost the actual content.

The content is more or less the same, but the title is 'SATIRE – Bill Gates calls for the withdrawal of all Covid-19 Vaccines; “The vaccines are far more dangerous than anyone imagined”'. It's a satire written for the sole purpose of ridiculing and not a real interview. And the OP removed the word "satire" from the title for sole purpose of misleading people. I don't know why anyone would do that.

Are you guys just kidding or y'all really missed the sacarsm? She's simply echoing what the society tells ladies with cheating partners.

OP, misinformation is more dangerous than any virus or vaccine. You maliciously removed the "satire" part of the title just to mislead people, and I wonder what's the pleasure in that.

Scary... but do you really need to go online to make mockery of the food you were served as a gesture of goodwill? Just saying.

This ish is get out of hand oo
We have to speak out and nip it on board

And call our fellow men out? Never! Sorry, but we are more interested in typing "fear women" whenever the opportunity arises. When the crime is committed by men, we concentrate on the ethnicity, religion, etc but never the gender. That's how it's done. Thanks.

To each his own, if she respects and appreciates people she loves by kneeling before them, then its necessary.
If her action gives you headache there is concrete everywhere for you to slam your heads on to improve the headache.

They did not say kneeling down is wrong, they said the bolded statement ain't necessarily cause what she did isn't necessarily a standard.

You just said "to each his own", so whatever Mercy did is her own. No need to call on other girls to be kneeling down for men.

jumper524:
Doctors can be the new source of foreign exchange if the govt can look deeper.
Every year in the universities more than enough qualified students for medicine are forced into other departments because the quota for medicine is 150 at max.
You'll see people with hyper impressive grades forced into other departments..
It won't take much for the FG to invest in the medical sector and improve the quota of every universities to 500.
That way we'll have much more exports and also more private hospitals at lesser rates.

Good thinking! This reminds me India and IT.

Though the quality of our doctors that makes them appealing to the rest of the world might drop if the quota is changed. I know many brilliant students are left out cause of the quota but that also implies only the best of the best is taken. What do you think?

Dtruthspeaker:
Men, you guys do not get good education. The standard has terribly dropped. That explains why you guys become atheist.

My response is based on the idioms "fair weather friends"; "A friend for food" and other friend idioms!.

Sir, despite all your education, you still don't know how to communicate with people. It wouldn't have taken anything away from you to explain your statement without insulting the guy. Decorum, please.

Vinnie2000:
You Shouldn't Defend her in any Way@all!!

She is a Big, Ignorant Fool and has disgraced female Footballers and in extension, Female Athletes all over, Africa!!
In Europe, US and Canada, Female footballers are cute, shapely and sometimes Busty..
But In Africa, it's our Harsh weather conditions, Rigorous training methods and poor family background dat cause our Girls to look Ugly..
Look at Serena and Venus Williams!! Are they are Ugly and flatchested?

This Ignorant Woman Deserves to be CONDEMNED by Feminists groups..
because if it was a Man dat made this statement now..

lebienconnu:
What she said is highly unjustifiable. If i want to say the truth about her look i will say she is very ugly. I did not say that because according to a Yoruba adage we should not count the fingers of a nine-fingered person in his presence.

I agree with you guys. I wasn't aiming at justifying her though. Just pointing out another possibility/alternative perspective for a more balanced discussion/criticism. She messed up big time.

@lebienconnu, that's a beautiful adage. Regarding your name, are French speaking?

PlayerMeji:
The truth is now an endangered species

Lifestone:
Feminist will still critique her for saying the obvious

Does one really need to be a feminist to know what is right? It was a derogatory remark and somewhat body shaming. You don't tell a short man "you're short like a water bottle" and expect him not to get upset simply cause you're being truthful or because you're also a man. People didn't create themselves and only an insane person wouldn't see anything wrong in the way she described the ladies. You don't go around saying hurtful things to people on the ground of telling the truth. This kind of statement shouldn't even be coming from someone in her position. I'm sure you guys know this, so let's call a spade what it is.

Having said that, it's possible she didn't mean to mock the players though. She was probably trying to point out all that the players go through just to make their country proud as a way of soliciting funds.

This kids should be reprimanded. I get it, many people keep boyfriends/girlfriends at that age, but it shouldn't get to this level of intimacy.

InfernoNig:
The boy never reach the promise land but the girl done reach am already. Fear women oooo. After Satan na them.

Really, dude? You saw two kids messing around and your first line of thought is to bring in sexism?

"It is just three miles long (4.8km) and one-and-a-half miles wide, is home to 60 people, and only got a
reliable 24-hour-a-day electricity supply in 2018."


Reading the quoted part above, the first thing that came to my mind was, how have they been living through the cold winter time without electricity to heat their homes

I didn't see any solar panels or Hydro plant in the available picture.


.

They just got a 24hr/day reliable electricity. This doesn't mean they were without electricity. It just wasn't constant. In other words, there used to be occasional power cuts. But then again, how they survived without electricity shouldn't be a puzzle, there are other ways to generate heat. Man predates electricity, you know. Some of us still love the fireplace concept even in the presence of constant power supply.

"Freedom" is and will NEVER be all or Nothing!
"Freedom" will always have "reasonable limits".

For example, just because my wife is free with me, doesnot mean she should go around dishing Slaps to me!
Just because l am free with my Boss does not mean l can enter his house and climb his wife..... that is me absuing the "Freedom" he gave me.
Just because God call us his Children and gave us Freedom of Choice, does not mean we can go around blaspheming hus Holy Name.
Just because Americans have the Freedom to buy and own Guns, does not mean they have the Freedom to kill just anybody with it.
Just because we all have the freedom to go to a Store and buy a Knife, we still dont have the freedom to openly carry it around (weaponised!) or using it to slaughter someone who offends us.

These are all examples of how freedom, though given, is also not without LIMITS
It is only Hypocrites who claim freedom must be Total, it is never and will never be.

Thanks for your input.

In law, we say "your right ends where another person's rights begin". This simply means you're free provided your actions do not directly or indirectly affect others. So addressing your comment, slapping someone else cannot be termed "freedom" simply because freedom cannot be defined for one person alone. For it to be called freedom, the second party, the recipient of the slap, must consent to the slap; otherwise, his own freedom is being eroded. And like I said, it is not freedom when only one party is considered. And that only only goes to buttress the point I made in the post you quoted: freedom is all or nothing. In other words, all parties involved must partake in the freedom or there's no freedom.

You people have made a mess of blogging.

Taliban: Kills people because they have a different religion
Nigerians: Why can't these people live and let live?! Tolerance is very important!!!

Taliban: Kills people cause they have a different sexuality
Nigerians: hhmm... well, why should those people have a different sexuality?

The earlier you realize freedom is all or nothing, the better for y'all.

toby345:
how much did you get this

Can't remember the specific amount but it was around c$1,500 back then (December 2019/January 2020).

Davash222:
Who doesn't know Gistlover?

Everybody needs promotion including Google.

Davash222:
Promotion for what exactly?

The blog

This is your promotion though

The same age as the boy child.

Let me join the fun!

Lenovo Thinkpad P51 (mobile workstation)

RAM: 32G DDR on-board (possible extension: 64G)
Hard Disk: 512G SSD (to be extended to 1TB)
Processor: Core i7 (7th Generation)
Graphics: NVIDIA GPU
Screen Size: 15.6"
Resolution: 1920 x 1080
OS: Windows 10
Features: keyboard light, fingerprint sensor, etc.

This lady might not have been a paragon of morality (I don't watch the show so I don't know her) but I don't think most of these criticisms are from the standpoint of morality cause most of the critics, if not all, have multiple girlfriends/boyfriends and would gladly accept if offered a place in the BBN show. They just say/type these things to make them feel better about themselves cause their sense of pride is all they've got going for them. Some believe continously slutshaming these ladies excuses their own present situation. She has this because she's prostitute. I don't have it cause I'm a better person. That line of thought offers them peace of mind.

At the end, you're where you and the persons you're criticizing are where they are. She got to the show, she got known, she's working her way into the movie industry, she's taking pics with known faces in the industry, she'll soon become a known face herself, she'll earn money and live the life she wants. Then she'll take pics and post them. You'll bring the pics to Nairaland, criticise her and call her names. However, that will neither change your status nor hers. Everyone adapts to thier role: some living and others existing.

Reeberry:
If you check well, you would realise you making him think it's something so much to think about.

That's just reactions from some basic things, like bathing with creaming which cause skin dryness, also bathing with rain water and co.

Dude, I asked him to see a professional instead seeking medical advice online cause that is the ideal things to do. I don't have what you're on about.

Reeberry:
Take it easy. People like can make people commit suicide, just because you giving advice.

That's just a soap and cream reaction. It would clear later. It will just take weeks/Close to a month before it will clear off.

Sorry, Nairaland resident doctor. So asking him to get his answers from a medical personnel instead asking Nairalanders is considered a suicidal advice? Lol... you guys.

meedoLock:
Allowing crossdressers in our society is like leaving a naked fire on the roof, it will backfire and when it does, it will be very difficult to curb.


Let's be civil.

Yet you'd gladly move to a country where no one is persecuted for thier dressing if offered the visa.

Guys, let women answer.

expertman:
Nice one and Congratulations sir .

May your reign be heavenly blessed .

Very modest Inauguration if to say is our dear country omo nah Agbada you go dey see every where.

FTC oooooo.

Seun just dash me sumtin I don't want much

And the African attire is immodest? Lol... you guys.

ijoba222:
pox you mean liquid inside ? no its mostly dry.

Yes, I think he meant to type "pus" though.

Meanwhile, this nairaland solution you seek isn't really ideal. Why not go to a hospital? This is a health issue and must be taken very seriously.

Good luck and get well soon!

Wow! This is just sad!

Rugaria:
Stop defending evil! There is something evil about a lady tht will run away with all the kids from a marriage to a husband thepat built her up from zero, then start demanding for almost ten million a month from abroad. If she's really with her former bf, It says a lot.

If you see it as "defense" when someone calls for no judgment without details, then I pity people who rely on your judgment. I said it's illogical to start calling her evil based on what some random person wrote online and you're calling that defense? You'd rather proceed with judgment without details just because you find the story appealing to you?

Isn't it funny that the reason you gave for aligning with the writer is based solely on what the writer said? I'm telling you you should not take the writer's words for it and you're telling me "... if she went to leave with her ex...", the same writer's words. So in your wisdom, you think it's cool to start calling her names based on the content of this text you don't even know where it came from? What if the writer isn't being truthful? Are those calling her evil saying "if this is true, then she's evil" or are they just assuming it's true already? Pray tell, if this was written against the man, would you have been so quick to call him devil or you'd say "let's hear from the couple first" ? Are you accepting this one cause it feeds your stereotype? Sexism makes even the brightest minds seem dumb.

The lady left all the men in the world to stick with a jobless student till they became rich. It's possible people change but we don't know that for certain. Alimony doesn't work like magic, if she didn't forfeit any opportunities for the man's progress, she wouldn't get anything. Whichever way, you don't take sides in a divorce case when you don't know the details.

Someone will be in their house and type whatever comes to their mind and NL people will rush to type "gold digger", "evil woman", etc. How dumb could humans be that they take such write-ups without questioning? Was the writer living with the couple that they even know about their bedroom activities? Is sexism blindening? I used to think Nollywood's representation of how biased the African society is against women was exaggerated until I joined Nairaland. First, it was Lola. Now, it's Anita. The men are just there like faultless logs of wood. You think you're shielding them from blame but you're only presenting them as zombies. African men should learn to take responsibility for thier actions. When it's all going good, it's the man's doing. When it goes sour, it's the woman's influence.

This is now what he does? Politicians know just what time type to get you to align with them. They see a crack and they exploit it. Religion, ethnicity, etc are all stale. It's time to exploit the gender divide. All of a sudden, he's now a cool guy cause he's saying things that appeal to your ego. Of all the problems around us, women are the most pressing ones.
