He is a buffoon. God said that if you repent and renounce your previous sinful ways, you will be forgiven.
 
The critical point here is to repent and abstain from all illegal activities in the future.

Sports / Re: Who Is To Blame For The Super Eagles Loss? by DEGABA(m): 6:40am On Jan 24, 2022
To be honest, after watching some of the highlights, I have my reason to blame the coach.
In the first half, they lacked determination. They would have won the encounter if they had played the first half with the same zeal as they did the final 20 minutes of the second half.
My reason for blaming the coach is that he was watching them play as nonchalantly as though they were four goals ahead. Why not encourage them to play with zeal?
Secondly, some of his substitutions are questionable, he lacks tactical knowledge, and he is completely inexperienced.
Indeed, the team lacked a leader on the pitch, which affected them.

Eguavon is not a tactical coach, his game plan kills the game for SE.
The played as if they have nothing at stake in the first half thereby playing to the Tunisians hand. No urgency at all.
They would have killed of the game in the first half.
Rubbish.

This group will be very interesting

Gambia 4 points
Mali 4 points
Tunisia 3 points
Mauritania 0 point

Tunisia Vs Gambia in the last group match

Mali should be able to secure the first position, the second and 3rd position would be determined by the outcome of Tunisia Vs Gambia
Gambia needs just a point to qualify,I wish they do.
Family / Re: Why Do You Give Money To Your Mom Instead Of Your Dad? by DEGABA(m): 7:01am On Jan 10, 2022
Quite unfortunate that I didn't give my dad much when he's alive. I prefer giving my mum because of family upkeep as regards food stuffs. My father is not the type that gives out easily and if I had given him the lion share, it would have been hard for the family in terms of bringing money for food items.

Crime / How I Excaped Scammers That Almost Ruined Me Completely. by DEGABA(m): 6:18pm On Jan 03, 2022
Saturday 18th December 2021 was the day I would have regretted being alive because my savings account would have been wiped out completely.
That Saturday, I was working on my blog, writing a post. I usually do that on weekends, but not every Saturday. I sometimes do it on Sunday after church service, and I always make use of my desktop since my laptop is faulty. 
As a blogger, I usually need three to four hours to write and publish a post if I want to have it go live the same day.
So I was busy proofreading my post and making some corrections when I discovered that I couldn't continue because I was getting weak and sleepy. Around 11 p.m., I had to join my wife in bed since, as a full-time worker who also blogs as a side hustle to supplement my monthly income, I need time for wifey affection since it's weekend.
Back to the story, I was about to shut down my system when I saw a pop-up email message from my savings bank account that said there was a login into my bank App.
However, the said savings account was opened in 2008. I was not using it as my main savings account so I opened a bank App for easy banking activities for it.
I was using the app, but since I discovered that the money in the account had increased a lot, I decided to deactivate my ATM linked to the account and stop every withdrawal from it except through the banking hall.
I did this for safety reasons since all my life savings are there. I opened other accounts with other banks where I linked my ATM card and Banking App. These ones have funds for my monthly expenditure and miscellaneous needs, so I don't touch the savings.
So, that night, this message came that I logged in into my Bank App that I should alert the bank with their hotline if I wasn't the one.
Immediately I saw that message I tried to ignore it because am no longer using their APP and my ATM deactivated. But on a second thought I decided to call the line, luckily someone picked immediately.
This was happening few minutes to midnight. The lady asked if I have a bank APP and I said no, she said I should not worry. I then dropped the call and thanked her.
I have joined my wifey on the bed but still not comfortable so I decided to tell her what happened. I was still with her but the appetite was lost since my mind was not settled.
I was still wondering how a new banking app I hadn't subscribed to could be linked to my account. Immediately, I remembered that in 2012, after 4 years of opening the account, I was using a bank app but not the same name as the one the mail I received that night mentioned. I looked into the APP and discovered an astonishing fact: the said new APP can be logged into using the pin code I used in any previous app I used.
I jumped out of bed tried to block my account by myself but it wasn't going, then I decided to call the hotline again and another lady picked immediately. 
I told her to block my account that I have unauthorized access to it which she obliged and blocked immediately. I narrated everything to her and she only apologize for any inconveniences. I forgot I sent a mail to them as evidence which they replied with the same line of apologies.
I took that drastic action based on the issues of this fraudsters that normally operate during midnight's of weekends, so that they can wipe out all your money before morning.
My question is, how can someone has access to my PIN if not inside job and I suspect all those IT staffs in that Bank.
Another issue is how can the retain my old PIN of about 13 years ago depite that I don't use the App again and still allow access to a new App with the same old Pin code.
I might have acted out of ignorance but I just want to be careful to avoid story that touches the whole body not only heart.

Married women are like deities, flee from them no matter how tempting them may be.
There is a grave repercussions sleeping with them but you might not notice it now but later.
When it starts you may no longer remember the cause of it but it most surely strike you sooner or later.
If I narrate my own encounter and how I overcame it, you would know that your own is just an easy temptation to avoid.
My own walked directly into my room at 2am when her children where asleep and the husband was not in the town, with only her undies. I share a flat with them when I was a bachelor.
That night was a real test of ultimate self control from me and I am always proud of myself whenever I remembers that.

Hello.
Does one need a background in Engineering or Mathematics to learn Software development (Java, etc), please?

Also what age would you say it's too old to learn/make money with the knowledge?

Thank you.

It's best when you don't have anything distracting you. Programming needs absolute dedication and commitment.
Age is not the issue but the mindset, and you don't need to be an engineer or a mathematician.

They biggest beneficiary with be the Yorubas. The have access to the sea, they have the land mass and they are more United.
The Niger Delta will face some difficulties due to multiple tribe the have.
The Igbos will have the biggest problems due to land mass issue and no access to the sea.
The Hausas will be favoured since the have bigger land mass and they have other mineral deposits.
I feel for the Igbos and the Niger Deltans if it ever happens, unless both can unite and form a country which is unlikely.

"It is only an animal that bears the name that is given to it by his enemy" (Proverb).
Britain named a bunch of people - Nigeria.They rather kill to preserve it than restructure
and give themselves a befitting new name.

THE FUTILITY OF PRESERVING NIGERIA
My angry reaction earlier today on APC UK platform:
Most of the Diasporans here living in Europe. Can you show me one multi-ethnic state in
Europe where one group is positioned to dominate the rest that hasn't broken up?
For those who do not know, what you call ethnic groups in Nigeria are called nations in
Europe.
There's nowhere in the world where the white man accepts domination from another white
man in perpetuity.
It used to be so under the Roman empire and the like. Not anymore. The Communists tried it, dividing society into capitalists and proletariats, deluding themselves that ethnicity is effectively swept under the carpet, but what followed? The Communist edifices in Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, and the big brother, USSR, all collapsed, while the
two Germans that are ethnically the same but split by communism vs capítalism were
reunited. Such is the power of ethnic nationalism.
Czechoslovakia was made up of two ethnic groups, the Czech and the Slovakians. Both
separated peacefully on 1st January 1993.
The former is today 10.6 million people and the latter 5.4 million. Added together, they're
not up to Lagos. Yet, they split for peace. Two masters cant be in the same house.
Yugoslavia in 1991 was 23.2 million, barely more than Lagos population. It broke into six
countries same year - all along ethnic lines,namely: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia.
Then the big brother, USSR. It had, at least the following ethnic groups identified by their
languages:
Regional languages:
Ukrainian
Belarusian
Uzbek
Kazakh
Georgian
Azerbaijani
Lithuanian
Moldavian
Latvian
Kyrgyz
Armenian
Turkmen
Estonian
Minority languages:
Abkhaz
Bashkir
Buryat
Chechen
Finnish
Volga German
Ossetian
Tatar
& various others.
Today, your fingers will not be enough to count the number of countries that have emerged from the USSR.
Sit down there and be preaching unity in Nigeria as if you're the kindest gentleman on earth while you have no solution to the genocide in Southern Kaduna, the illegal but officially condoned arms in the hands of killer herdsmen roaming the country, and be condemning those better informed about the fact that the country is undergoing the strains of a forced union and should be emerged from the USSR.
Peacefully restructured or let people go their separate ways.
In Europe, the two best examples of fairly stable multi-ethnic states are the UK and
Switzerland. The former is led by reasonable men who permitted regional autonomy to the Irish, the Scots and the Welsh, while the English dominate Westminster. That's
something some of us are asking for, but you're fighting against it in your own country
wracked by ethnic crisis. Your own people are better off under oppression of fellow black men because your people have bad leaders who can't do better than their new internal colonisers.
The latter country, Switzerland, has four ethnic groups. Each of them rotates the
presidency annually through seven cantons that constitute the federation units. All thee
four languages of the four ethnic groups are recognized as official languages and school
languages to boot, namely: German, French, Italian, and Romansch that has just a few
thousand speakers!
There's nowhere in the world where the Caucasians allow the domination of their group by another.
In Canada, Quebec is the only full French speaking province, aside a little section of
New Brunswick. The other seven provinces are English-speaking. Yet, Canada is bilingual
for the sake of Quebec! And each of the provinces is largely self-governing. Here we are in Nigeria, you have people
arguing vehemently that a decrepit, structurally-flawed, and crisis-prone artificial
contraption badly configured by the British only needs good people to survive. Why not
centralise the powers of the British regions to London and see what happens?
My Conclusion:
When many commentators read and repost or share your articles with many of their
friends and contacts, they do so because they want others to learn.
