why am I even suprised ? pls kindly fck off ...God bless you

Typical case of the useless tongue that curse and the same time bless.

You should be surprised because you are narrow minded and love sensationalism.
Did you hear the couple's side of the story?
Did they really want their child dead?
Is it a death sentence to refuse blood transfusion?
Did you study medical science to feel there isnt any other "better" alternative?

Myopic fellow!!!

Hairyrapunzel:
So paul made a new law different from the mosaic law right?

Abstain from blood. Abstain from seeing abstain from touching abstain from eating abstain

Abstain from everything blood. Abstain from blood products or components or fractions.


Let's be sly together intact let's assume for paul. He must have meant what we are thinking.

You know he said abstain from fornication too. Since you assume blood fractions from blood donated by worldly people is ok what fraction of fornication should we accept?

Baby killer

Here he goes again!

seuncyrus:
i can't believe someone who can use the internet would really say this ...what is wrong with you people ? does religion not make you know the difference between right and wrong ? would you have preferred they let the baby die ??

Nobody wants their kid dead. Stop being myopic. Medically there may be other ways.

You see that JW church na stupid people full am.
I rather dine with a traditional worshipper than their hypocritical ass.
Very useless in their practice and preaching.
I still know a female member of theirs that calls herself a good bitch!
I still know a colleague from their Church that when you greet her she will never reply you but will choose to gossip you at your back.
Extremely stupid set of members they ve got

Illiterate

APC is a shameful government and regime. The minimum wage issue is a scam.

Level 7 got N4,000 added to their salaries in the paramilitary structure with the assumption that they (the paramilitary) are enjoying a recent salary increase. I wonder where they got such silly info.

The lower you go on the grade levels the lesser your minimum wage increase become.

CeterisXVII:
Last time I checked, Onne port was fully developed and fully functional. Stop saying what you do NOT know. Onne is the 2nd highest revenue generating port, after Lagos port!

There's always a second after lagos even if it isn't working. 2nd Highest you say. We aren't talking about rating. In terms of Infrastructure how do you compare both?

The problem with us Africans is that we are very narrow minded and tend to look at issues from only our tunnel vision perspective.

I lived in V/I (bar beach towers) for 20 years and I lived in main Ikoyi for 8 years. So I have wider perspectives from both sides.

Yes, all you said is valid from the perspective of the elite, but what of the perspective of the low income workers or services provider struggling to survive. Basic human instinct is survival and would risk everything and defy all odds to get to where he feels his chances of survival are better. People still cross the Sahara desert and Mediterranean Sea, despite the chances of surviving the journey being very slim.

I am an architect and in one of my courses called urban planing, it clearly taught me that if you fail to plan for low income housing when planing your urban cities, shanties and squatter settlements will naturally develop. This problem is not unique to Nigeria or Africa. Even France and USA battle with squatter settlements issues. The rich elites often don't like seeing or associating with poor people, except for exploitation. The failure of the ruling elites to make provisions for the poor people always come back and hunt them.

I left V/I about 15 years ago and I hardly go there. I went to visit a friend at Muri Okunola last week and I was appalled by the state of the roads. The traffic was horrendous and the roads were terrible. Muri Okunola itself was impassable.

I am sorry to say, but with all the allocations going to Lagos and the high IGR, the infrastructures is nothing to write about in terms of maintenance. Yes, I know other states even fare worse than Lagos, it still does not exonerate Lagos State governments.

I am one of those that believes the pressure on Lagos is too much, hosting the 2 major sea ports in the country, hosting the most important international airport and now planing on hosting the biggest refinery in Africa and a free trade zone, in such a tiny state? We go soon dey climb on top each other.

Anyway the main problem of Lagos is urban planing. There seem to be non whatsoever by the various governments

Main problem is greed! The greed to have it all achieved in your state instead of decentralizing these infrastructure or projects. There are other places where these projects can be sited in this country but because of politics some region gets almost all the share.

The cake don't have to cry when flies perch on it. It attracted them in the first place. Spread the cake and get less flies on a spot.

But don't worry, nature has a way of correcting itself. When it becomes evident that a city has gotten to it's limits of supporting good life, humans just move in to another location.

codemaniacs:
you're saying lagos is over hyped and smelly, yet you don't want them to evict the people making it smelly and unkempt...

baby124 is right.

People making it overhyped and smelly includes you and baby124. Do thyself a favour; take a break from the shit-hole. Emancipate, no, Evict yourselves!

baby124:
Then why are they running to Lagos retard? Why are YOU in Lagos if all these wonderful things exist in your state? Take all the shanty occupants and expose them to the milk and honey in your state you blockhead. We say we don’t want, Na by force?

Guy I'm not in the lagoon or Lagos for your information.

Tha place is over hyped and smelly.

baby124:
Calabar was a colonial capital, Abuja has federal might. Still they are learners when it comes to Lagos. Ports are in Warri, yet it’s like Sahara desert. Everybody is running, even Warri people. We are tired of useless and senseless excuses from 1900. The people simply have no brain or will to help themselves. If e pain you, go to Abuja and ask FG for help. Not Lagos. We choose to use our allocation to do something. Try that approach.

You just being a blockhead to what's really going on. You lack a sense of current affairs and I can understand that you are a toddler when it comes to these things (politics).

Do you know the amount of money pumped into the Lagos ports by the federal govt at the detriment of other ports in Nigeria?

You hear of dry ports in kaduna and federal cash spent to make it work but you wonder why a port at a sea shore (warri, onne, pH, Calabar) isn't concentrated on or developed?

You say Abuja is a learner when it comes to Lagos. Lol! My guy just shut up! The sea isn't an infrastructure.

baby124:
Federal might, former capital... all this nonsense. Show me the benefit of all that in Lagos? Tell me? Why are they not allowing the same rubbish in Abuja? Why has Abuja and Calabar not been able to bring themselves up to the level of Lagos? My governor has done nothing yet those so called governors that are doing g great work, almost half of their constituents are in Lagos hustling with most homeless. If that is the level of work you get from your governor and what you expect, no wonder you are on NL defending shanties and other rubbish.

Shame on you to compare a former federal capital territory with Calabar. Was Calabar a federal capital territory of Nigeria as it's known today? Olodo!

Person wey never see other places dey talk about other state governors. Give other southern regions (warri, Calabar, pH) the same ports status as Lagos and see if the overrated pigsty of a state isn't emigrated.

baby124:
Yes. It should be sold to indigenes and their welfare should be priority. I don’t hate anybody, but we are not responsible for everybody. Period.

South Africans would be smiling at your comment.

Tribal demon!

baby124:
Lol. You think Lagos doesn’t have indigenes who deserve the low cost housing? Yes they are free to move around but Lagos has no obligation to provide anything for them. We receive allocation just like their state governors do. Let them go and ask their state governors for assistance. We Lagosians also need the help of our own governors and we are enough in our state. Lagos is one state of 36 in Nigeria. They can try your state.

At least for once, your state governors can make use of their brains. Instead of living like Kings. Empty and shameless cowards. You call yourself a man though... I am sure you can’t write this stupid epistle yo your state Governor. But when it comes to Lagos everybody has an opinion.

Most state governor's perform better than your Pontius Pilate governor. Your state simply bask in the glory of it's former federal capital territory status. Everyone has an opinion because the federal might back then used the resources of the less developed oil regions to make Lagos what it is today. How far have you gone since that status was taken away from you. Nonsense!

wirinet:
It's not always about running from their own states, it's has more to do with urban planning. Shanties are natural occurrence of high brow urban areas without adequate planning for low income housing. Low income housing should go hand in hand with high income developments. The high income earners needs and hire low income workers like driver's, maids, gardeners, etc. Where do you want them to stay. High income earners need low income services like mechanics, vulcanisers, electricians and convenience shops, where do you want the owners of these services to stay. To make matters worse, the V/I and lekki areas his now a commercial and business district, no provisions whatsoever is made for low income workers..., and you don't expect Shanties to develop?

Each time a shanty is demolished, another one develops to take its place. That has been the history of Shanties along that V/I - lekki axis. From maroko to bar beach, to other Shanties that had been demolished down the years.
The elites do not want to take eye see poor people, but at the same time need their services.

The problem of Lagos State governments over the years is what I called elitist bias. The need poor people only during elections, once elected, the governor only thinks about the elites and carry out elitist programmes.

Very true and correct. But what do these leaders know.
If I was the local artisans still hanging around, I'd double the charges I place on my services. Let's see if they'll go to the mainland to hire/import artisans.

I remember when the northerners ran back due to the north due to the ethnic crises in 2005 at the onitsha and asaba axis; looking for a shoe cobblers at the period was like looking for the Governor of the state. We sometimes think they are worthless and useless but the truth is you never know what you had till you loose it.

ikevin:
I'm deltan and Okowa is not performing at all, this isn't partisan but the truth. Sample current opinion in the state.

In terms of road infrastructure during the past 4 years, Gov. Okowa did very well and that was what we actually needed and still need: but the Stephen keshi stadium he completed (through adding finishing touches) is already looking quite wornout just after a year of "local direct labour" construction. Let us see how he would perform now in his remaining four years.

Uduaghan had an airport built, the asaba flyover which is rarely used (because the high volume traffic is simply going under it), street lights and event centre were constructed under his administration.

No Governor is totally useless.

On November 9th, 2016 the American people went to the polls and voted, and Republican Donald Trump won 30 states including all of the Swing states, and he became the president of the United States of America.

But for 3 years the Democrats have been trying to override the will of the voters, and they have tried to overturn that election just because they are mad that they lost.

The day after Donald Trump won the election.

1. The Democrats were in the street shouting NOT MY PRESIDENT.

2. They then smashed out store windows and set cars on fire.

3. They rioted in the streets in some cities.

4. The Democrats started the resistance movement, to oppose Trump at every turn.

5. Democrat politicians boycotted going to Donald Trump presidential inauguration.

6. Democrat politicians boycotted going to Donald Trump State of the Union Speech.

7. Democrat politicians have often gotten on national television and called Donald Trump ( the occupant of White House), which is totally disrespectful to the American voters who went to the polls and voted and elected Donald Trump the president.

8. For 3 years the Democrats have been looking for anykind of way they could find to impeach Donald Trump, all because they are mad that they lost the election.

9. A Democrat politician said that if they don't impeach Trump, he's going to get re-elected.

This is how the Democrats have been acting about losing the 2016 presidential election to Donald Trump.

Over 70 Democrat politicians refused to go to Donald Trump inauguration, because they were mad that they lost.

They basically boycotted the will of the people, the Americans that went to the polls and voted.

Some Democrats even boycotted Donald Trump State of the Union Speech in 2019.

Democracy doesn't mean anything to them.

The American people voted for Trump to be president, but the Democrats don't respect the will of the people. After the election they took to the street shouting that Donald Trump is not their president.

Democrats got out in the street and blocked interstates because they lost the election. The day after Trump won the election the Democrats blocked interstates in different cities.

Naija.....



I was in church today and pastor said everyone should sow a new year seed on the 1st of January. He said the seed must be in a very robust envelope. Where I got angry was, he cautioned his members to be sure they sow the seed before embarking on their Christmas holiday trip. That he doesn’t want stories where the money that was supposed to be used to sow the seed was given to mama, sister, uncle, brother in the village to buy tomatoes

Keep going to that church!

Freestyle won HIPPOP WORLD award(now HEADIES) best rapper with that 'FREE AT LAST' album in 2007. It had SIP EASY ft 2face and other dope tracks back then.

Sip easy! Plenty shayo for here!
You no carry come, you no carry go!

Blaze was and continues to be my best female rapper from Nigeria.
On a track with M.I. she killed it. Her intro was superb. I love that lady. Wish she was still in the game.

whirlwind7:

You are exactly the sort of shithead that Yoruba people tell: don't be unfortunate in life!

The checkpoints are not inside Ondo or Benin town. So, Ondo or Benin peeps can't feel the blockade unless they travel from Lagos to the SE. Comprende? Except you are travelling from Lagos to Onitsha, you cannot feel the negative impacts these police/army checkpoints pose to travellers.

If anyone from any part of Nigeria were to travel from Lagos to Onitsha, he will see what the issue is.
Since you have been unfortunate not to leave your mud house with its thatched roof, your tiny, almost non-existent mind cannot process real life events around you.
Since you are unfortunate not to own a car, or even board a public transport from Lagos or the SW to the SE, you do not see what the problem is.
A rational mind will ask himself, why on Earth is there up to 60 check points within such distance?
But people like you don't ever, have never, and will never know what it means to be rational or think constructively.
Don't worry. You shall be alright very soon. The ignorant ones are usually the first set of casualties.

Thanks for instilling wisdom into that knuckle headed Western wharf rat... He currently resides in iseyin so where does he know?

jahsharon:
Yes, it is because criminals reside at that side. Crime is their generational trade, from drug trafficking to armed robbery, fake drugs, human trafficking, baby factory, kidnapping, just name the crime.

Can anyone imagine that Igbos will go to the North, kidnap Almajaris and sell the Hausa kids to their fellow Igbos who have used their reproduction system for money rituals and hence cannot have children? The Nigerian Police Force have rescued several Northern kids who were kidnapped and transported to Igboland for sale.

Therefore, there will continue to be numerous check points along Biafran corridor.

You really took your time to explain how "PAINED" and jealous you are of the igbo you this Tiger clawed, human skull hunting tout from rusty-brown roofed towns of the West.

People who can't speak a sentence with saying aahh!, yeee!

Commentor:
People in Ondo are not complaining.

Those in Benin are not complaining.

But you must complain.


By the way, why are you talking about Lagos?

Do the people you mentioned above travel? Do they visit other parts of Nigeria like his people do?

Even you! Lagos riff rat.

Danniedpastor:
Oga, there's nothing like "language group "
Ndokwa is an ethnic group that speaks a language called Ukwani.
We are not igbo all.

Ukwani is a subset or dialect in the Igbo language. Forget all this grammar you are speaking.

Please translate the words "come", water, market, language into Igbo and ukwani.

What does the name ukwuani mean in english because in Igbo it means "low land". And that's because your areas are sighted in the low areas close to the banks of River Niger.
Enuani which is the oshimili and aniocha areas also means High Lands. These areas are relatively higher than the banks of Niger river.

The ukwuani man may have origins from other areas not necessarily from the East but some do. But you all general categorised as Igbo.

Danniedpastor:
Not Delta Igbo.
He's an Ndokwa son

What is this?

Ndokwa is under which state and language group?

Iamvetlander:
Who is gossiping PMB?

Maybe West African neighbours... He is not relevant.

Bluffly:
Well observed. I was thinking if the body is of ballistic materials to prevent bullet penetration then I saw their finishing which suggests that they only welded irons together, made it mobile, painted and called war vehicle. What a pity

And what do you think the western nation's use in manufacturing their MRAPs? Kevlar? Bamboo? Teflon?

Thonypadua:
and Deji Adeyanju that wrote petition about the bullion van is an igbo man abi?
SMH for you guys

Who's asking of the tribe of the petitioner you tribalistic numskull?

What's paramount is the result of the petition? What's the outcome? Why isn't there much noise about it even when there's evidence in pictures concerned the Vans?

Let's also watch what's going to become of Ganduje Gandollar in Kano after his immunity ends as Governor. We'll see if he becomes "persecuted".
