@tUCORS@jerry_emy Unfortunately, no matter how you sugarcoat the interventions, if there is no enabling environment, then the grant won't yield any substance, but as usual, anyone who has a different opinion hates tinubu, shows how shadow minded you are and have come to accept bare minimum
@tUCORS@jerry_emy Let's assume you are clever, but you totally missed the point. Will someone who is not sure of his or her safety sell akara in an environment where he or she may be kidnapped? Will farmers go to farm to farm to plant crops needed when there are terrorist in the bush ?
With his puerile tweet on X, we are now convinced that Peter Obi lives in his self-constructed echo chambers, where he reels off lie after lie to himself and believes his self-created reality about the situation in Nigeria. We sympathise with him. That reality he fantasises about is mostly a figment of his imagination.

Christian apologist exposes the ignorance & the disingenuousness of this Islamic sheikh and Muslims on the Bible and the Quran.
This is so true!
This is the reality of Islam and Muslim.
Without lies and deceptions, Islam dies.
It's the reverse.
Nigeria was ahead of China in the 1960s and 1970s, then she stalled and China never looked back.
China did three key things:
1. Provided free quality education for everyone, especially rural children (Nigeria has more children out of school than the entire population of Belgium).
2. China resolved its agricultural and food crisis by focusing on rural areas and mechanised farming. Key word: “rural”.
(Nigerian rural farmers still farm with hoes and rainwater.)
3. With a well-fed and educated labour force, China then allowed the West to establish industrial clusters on the coast where local Chinese could learn skills.
(Nigeria's youth are japing to find jobs.)
We need to stop speaking polished English and get serious.
Heute wird Salman Rushdie 79. 1989 verurteilte ihn das Regime in Teheran zum Tode. Ayatollah Khomeini rief alle Muslime der Welt dazu auf, einen Schriftsteller zu ermorden, nur weil ihm dessen Roman nicht passte. Khomeini lebt seit über 35 Jahren nicht mehr. Sein Mordbefehl aber lebt weiter, noch 2017 bestätigte sein Nachfolger Chamenei das Todesurteil.
Und es blieb nie bei Worten. Rushdies japanischer Übersetzer wurde ermordet, sein italienischer niedergestochen, sein norwegischer Verleger angeschossen. Der islamistische Terror gegen ein einziges Buch reichte bis nach Tokio, Mailand und Oslo. 2022 stach man Rushdie schließlich auf offener Bühne nieder, ausgerechnet bei einem Vortrag über Meinungsfreiheit. Er verlor ein Auge, der Täter verehrte einen seit Jahrzehnten toten Fanatiker.
Das ist der Kern des Islamismus. Er erträgt kein freies Wort, nicht einen Roman oder auch keinen einen Witz. Und während ein Schriftsteller seit fast vierzig Jahren um sein Leben fürchtet, verhandelt der Westen mit seinen Häschern, hofiert das Regime und überweist am Ende noch Geld dafür.
Wer Freiheit ernst meint, verhandelt nicht mit denen, die Schriftsteller auf Todeslisten setzen. Er nennt sie beim Namen: Feinde jeder freien Gesellschaft.
Queen Elizabeth as Queen doesn’t attend Independence Day ceremonies.
Her representative for Nigeria's independence ceremonies on October 1, 1960, was her cousin, Princess Alexandra of Kent.
Princess Alexandra traveled to Lagos to formally hand over the constitutional instruments of independence to Prime Minister Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa.
Be it Ghana, Sierra Leone, Gambia, Nigeria and all other Commonwealth nations, she never attended any of the events. She always sent someone to represent her.
@IjobaZeroe@honorablesaint That's not true. He raised a valid concern here. You can eat your cake and have it at the same time. Loyalty should be absolute. Not because a player was born in a particular country and grew up there doesn't guarantee his full loyalty to that country.
European countries need to stop playing with mercenaries.
Most of these ethnic guys love their ethnicity over their host nation. They're all just parasites.
He is muslim. He doesn't care about Spain, has no connection to it, and only cares about his "homeland" of his father.
It's the same with the Swedish kid Ayari.
This can all be fixed simply by teams utilizing basic discernment. No deep historical ties to the nation? Can't play for us.
How a religion reasons is a huge theological confession in and of itself.
Christian reasoning from its foundations is meticulous, internally consistent, and built on shared text.
When the writer of Hebrews wants to argue for the divinity and priestly rank of Christ to wavering Jewish believers, he does not merely assert. He builds. He says: Remember Melchizedek? No genealogy, no traceable ancestry. Yet Abraham paid him tithes.
In Hebrew culture, the lesser pays the greater. You have already agreed, without knowing you agreed, that there was a figure who outranked your patriarch.
Then he drops Psalm 110: "The Lord has sworn... you are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek." If Melchizedek is greater than Abraham, and the Messiah belongs to Melchizedek’s rank, the Messiah does not share a category with the prophets. He sits above the one your fathers bowed to. That is an argument with no exit. You have to dismantle the text or accept the conclusion.
Now contrast that with this example or series of examples you Muslims always point to. Anytime you want to justify bowing five times a day facing a specific geographic location, you drag in Biblical prophets completely at random.
You see Jesus, in a moment of agonizing trepidation in Matthew 26, fall on his face to pray, and you instantly leap to: “Therefore he prayed like a Muslim.”
Do you think through the logic of this? In 2 Samuel, King David "danced before the Lord with all his might." By your exact methodology, should we start a new religion centered around dancing hysterically before God?
God is a Father. Sometimes his children approach him with dancing; sometimes, scared and broken, we lie flat; sometimes we sit. There is no chain of textual consequence in your argument.
There is only a posture and a verdict. It looks like logic until you actually look inside it.
But since you opened the New Testament, for Jesus let us actually look at how Jesus handles prayer. He completely shifts the frame from the external to the internal. He tells his disciples: Go into your room, close the door, and pray to your Father who is unseen. He tells the Samaritan woman that a time is coming when worship will not be tied to a mountain or to Jerusalem, because “God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”
He does not mention any geographic requirement or rigid ritual performance. It is an intimate, genuine encounter with a personal God.
And if you want to use Jesus's prayers to define him, you cannot stop at the garden. Look at John 17:5. Jesus prays: "Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began."
Find me the prophet who prayed that.
Abraham never did. Moses never did. No mere prophet in history ever walked into prayer and claimed pre-creational, shared glory with the Almighty.
The posture of submission in Matthew 26 doesn't undermine Christian theology; it requires it. It proves the Incarnation, the eternal Son genuinely entering human dependence and feeling the weight of human fear. You stopped reading at the physical posture, missed the entire theological foundation, and as usual you think this is a good refutation.
