jeromestarks: If you know the toy , you should be married by now. If you did not disvirgin your wife, you're cheat!
Ask your wife if she would allow her son or her brother marry a woman fvcked severely by another man. She will definitely say NO.
So why should you be the one to keep a used property? Why should you be the one to be cheated? Do you deserve the best too?
Never marry a woman you did not disvirgin because she will definitely fvck her ex the moment he shows up to her on Facebook or in the market and she will pin his children on you to train them with your sweat and hard-earned money.
Do not suffer for another man's pleasure. Once she's not a virgin, fvck her and let her go. Don't marry her. I repeat, DON'T NOT MARRY HER.
You want to pay bride price, sponsor wedding ceremony and take care of in-laws just to have a woman who was fvcked in her best state (virgin) by another man with just two eggs and INDOMIE?
BE WISE.
...stop using your convalescent period for posting.
I denounce that I am not a Muslim any shit. Seun you need to stop this nonsense oath on Muslim thread while leaving Christian thread open to everybody.
After swearing an oath in front of 2 million Nairalanders and countless passerbys...
...You then turn round and denounce in front of a meagre few
olisaEze: Whats your proof that ritual killings are perpetuated more by online fraudsters and not your offline mandate snatching & grabbing politicians! If you think someone callous enough to loot the future of a whole generation in his State just to pay his kids school fees eight years ahead, will be squeamish about taking a life to actualize his personal ambitions, ogbeni think again! There’s nothing as lucrative as politics in Nigeria, people literally kill to remain in that circle! I don tire to dey type RIP for needless deaths when we all know the solution to the problem in front of us all, is to get this useless party out of Aso Rock before they totally destroy everything!
Psalmspsalms: Thinking of how a hundred years from now would be. How would the future be in terms of technology and the fear of God. It seems the fear of God is gradually fading from the hearts of humans... Our parents of the 70s and 80's are saying the world of today is far spoilt, just imagine a hundred years from now.
I guess some people in their desire and fight for secularism practically set us on this "seemingly irreversible" course.
People who don't know religion plays good check and balance in human advocations.
People whose religion grants them irretractable leash.
Children are not safe going into the system either so I really hope she finds a loving mother figure to guide and protect her.
Unfortunately many don't know this.
At this present time (era) the innocence of children are badly at risk of eruption, irrespective of where they live or dwell.
Only a good "protective" system of welfare can guarantee their safety from abuse and harassment and not necessarily a particular government house or custody.
Officiallyrazz: To commemorate its 25th anniversary, the iconic Nokia 3210 has made a comeback, delighting those nostalgic for simpler times.
HMD, the company behind Nokia phones, has reintroduced this "cultural icon" in response to increasing demand for less complicated devices to facilitate digital detoxes. The updated 3210 now boasts a two-megapixel camera, supports 4G calling, and retains the beloved classic game Snake, all available for £74.99.
Lars Silberbauer, HMD's chief marketing officer, remarked, "The Nokia 3210, a cultural icon, is back at the forefront of the global dumbphone trend as consumers seek to balance their screen time usage with a digital detox. The Nokia 3210 embodies simplicity, enabling consumers to be fully present. Forget dumbphone; this is 2024's fun phone."
Ben Wood, mobile phone expert and founder of the Mobile Phone Museum, reflected on the model's significance: "The original Nokia 3210 holds a special place in the hearts of many consumers as one of the best-selling mobile phones of all time. It's the perfect product to reimagine for the modern era given its strong heritage and iconic design."
His comments and yours is the only positive on this damning thread.
The family is the building block and it's the root of it all, if we can sit our ass down and take a critical look at the kind of folks being shipped out to the larger society by each individual families we might just be able to right some wrongs plaguing our society but then, who is ready to do that, the urge to make it real quick is killing many and I'm afraid that it will keep getting worst until we tell ourselves the truth.
I agree with you in totality. It starts from family and parenting level.
OboOlora: Most people won't understand except they are gamers. I spend roughly $200 on Roblox gift card since my son introduced me to it, game is addictive.
SolarEngr2: The incidents described are deeply disturbing and reveal a darker aspect of humanity where greed and disregard for life lead to unspeakable acts. It's crucial to recognize the systemic failures that allow such crimes to occur and persist. This includes gaps in law enforcement, lack of social support systems, and possibly cultural beliefs that perpetuate these practices.
While it's essential to bring the perpetrators to justice, we must also address the root causes that drive individuals to commit such atrocities. This involves comprehensive measures such as education, community empowerment, mental health support, and stringent enforcement of laws against human trafficking, murder, and ritualistic practices.
Additionally, there should be a concerted effort to change societal attitudes and norms that tolerate or even glorify violence and exploitation. This includes challenging harmful beliefs about wealth and power that prioritize material gain over human life.
Ultimately, creating a more humane society requires a multifaceted approach that addresses both the symptoms and underlying causes of such crimes. It's a collective responsibility to uphold human rights, promote empathy and compassion, and work towards a world where such atrocities are unthinkable.
You spoke well. Unfortunately it is not in our African-Nigerian characteristic to look or address issues from such multi dimensional perspective as those you highlighted.
In short we hardly ever tackle any issue from their root cause.
After the initial awe and irk, we are back to (trying to apply) past default remedies that (ironically) has continually failed us.
MadamExcellency: Palestine – The myth we are now stuck with. In May of 1964, the PLO (Palestine Liberation Organization) was created as a new means of fighting Israel. It is the Palestine Liberation Organization, meaning ‘from the River to the Sea’, not the ‘Palestinian’ Liberation Organization. There were no Palestinians, yet.
Suddenly, three years before the 1967 Six Day War, and for the first time in history, instead of Israel only fighting Arab regular armies, such as those of Jordan (which in 1948 occupied East Jerusalem, Samaria, and Judea, later known as Cisjordan, and even later as the West Bank) and Egypt (which occupied Gaza), Israel also had to fight a terrorist group calling itself the PLO.
The PLO was entirely the brainchild of the notorious Soviet spy agency, the KGB. It concocted the PLO the same way it did other national liberation movements, such as the Bolivian National Liberation Army, to create instability and expand the Soviet sphere of influence. It was the KGB, not self-professed Palestinian Arabs, which drafted the original Palestine National Charter. The KGB handpicked 422 Arabs who would be members of the PLO Council to rubber stamp the KGB’s Charter and adopt it as the PLO’s mission statement. Similarly, the KGB drafted both the Palestine National Covenant and Palestine Constitution. The PLO adopted the KBG-drafted charter in 1964. Under Article 24, the PLO Charter dictates that the PLO is to control ALL LANDS UNDER ISRAELI AUTHORITY. It specifically excludes those lands already under Arab control, like that infamous ‘West Bank’ and Gaza, which were already occupied by Arab nations. Article 24 states: “This Organization does not exercise any territorial sovereignty over the West Bank in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, the Gaza Strip or in the Himmah Area. Its activities will be on the national popular level in the liberational, organizational, political, and financial fields.”
Even though the Arabs have been saying that the ‘occupation’ began in 1948, ‘the West’ continues to assert that ‘the Palestinians only want the West Bank and Gaza and that those are the only two areas to which they’ve ever referred when referring to ‘occupation’. There is a HUGE disconnect between reality and make-believe.
The Chairman of the KGB at the time, Vladimir Semichastny (1961-67), stated about the PLO’s formation: “We need to instill a Nazi-style hatred for the Jews throughout the Islamic world, and to turn this weapon of the emotions into a terrorist bloodbath against Israel.” The goal was to use the Islamic world as the KGB’s puppets by instilling this Nazi-style hatred for Jews into their culture to then use the weapon of emotions that would result to turn them into terrorist groups working to destabilize and ultimately doom both Israel and the U.S.
Seven months later, in December 1964, the KGB hand-picked Yasser Arafat to be the first ‘Palestinian Arab’, in charge of the KGB’s campaign of dezinformatsiya (disinformation, in Russian) in the Islamic world. The KGB personally trained Arafat in the Soviet Union at its Balashikha special-ops school east of Moscow and groomed him as the future PLO leader. By the way, also Mahmoud Abbas was groomed there, wrote his ‘Holocaust denial’ thesis, and later became a KGB-agent under the pseudonym Krotov in Damascus in 1985. To make Arafat credible as a leader of the PLO, the KGB concocted a background story that would show that Arafat was born in Jerusalem. The KGB even created false documents, such as a fake birth certificate for Arafat ‘proving’ he was born in Jerusalem. In reality, Arafat was both born and raised in Cairo, Egypt, as his real birth certificate was later revealed to show unequivocally.
As part of Arafat’s training, the KGB also selected a personal hero for him: the Grand Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini, who closely collaborated with Adolf Hitler before and during WW2. Via the KGB, the PLO appointed two former Nazi instructors, Erich Altern, a leader of the Gestapo’s Jewish affairs section, and Willy Berner, an SS officer who worked in the Mauthausen Extermination Camp. Another former Nazi, Johann Schuller, also supplied arms to the related terrorist organization that ultimately merged with the PLO, Fatah. When the Soviets lost influence and their reputation after the defeat by Israel in the 5-10 June 1967 Six-Day War of Soviet-armed and trained Arab Armies, the new KGB Chairman, Yuri Andropov, drove the Palestinian myth to a height, and turned-up the pressure on the Jewish State via more dezinformatsiya campaigns and more guerrilla/terrorist tactics using KGB-created and trained ‘Palestinian freedom fighters’, instead of relying solely on regular Arab armies to destroy Israel.
On 11 December 1967, the KBG founded another terror group: the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which was guided by Marxism and Leninism. The PFLP’s first leaders were Wadi Haddad and George Habash. Habash openly and repeatedly stated he viewed the ‘liberation of Palestine’ as an integral part of the world Communist Revolution.
The PFLP used more violent methods to try and achieve its goals: carry-out armed insurrection, perpetrate media-oriented attacks against Israel, and use airplane hijackings as a means of achieving international attention for the Communist and ‘Palestinian cause’. In 1969 alone, the PLO and PFLP hijacked 82 planes. The battle cry became ‘fighting Imperial Zionism’, a modern adaptation of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and long a favorite tool of Russian intelligence to foment antisemitism.
At the same time, the KGB launched Operation SIG (Sionistskiye Gosudarstva), which was a disinformation campaign designed to sow worldwide enmity of Israel and the USA, labeling them racist, imperialist, and colonialist entities. Operation SIG eventually included a global clandestine dezinformatsiya campaign against Israel that involved a combination of both propaganda and direct military support to any terrorist group that would declare itself the enemy of Israel. The number of terrorist groups has in the meantime increased to more than 25.
Part of Operation SIG included the KGB’s recruiting of thousands of doctors, engineers, technicians, professors and even dance instructors, who were all told to portray the USA as an arrogant and haughty Jewish fiefdom that was being financed by Jewish money, run by Jewish politicians, and whose goal was to subordinate the Islamic world.
Lt. Gen. Ion Mihai Pacepa, a Romanian Two-Star General in the DIE (Directia Informatii Externe, the secret police of the socialist republic of Romania) defected to the USA in July 1978, revealed that the Romanians were tasked with infiltrating Libya, Iran, Lebanon, and Syria with agents who were trained in antisemitic dezinformatsiya and terrorism. The DIE made use of an Arabic-language translation of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion (till today one of the most popular books in the Arab world), along with ‘documentary’ material ‘proving that the United States was a Zionist country whose aim was to transform the Islamic world into a Jewish fiefdom.’ Operation SIG’s dezinformatsiya campaign ran from 1967 to 1988, and it built and weaponized narratives based on made-up or twisted facts. It distorted history, employed classic propaganda tools such as deception, guilt by association, and repetition to inculcate the key messages. It also shamelessly played on people’s sentiments, and it used both Soviet Jews and Muslims as instruments of its propaganda. It attempted to, and too-often succeeded in inflaming and spreading anti-Israeli sentiments by relying on old antisemitic tropes and inventing new ones.
The overall goal of the dezinformatsiya campaign of Operation SIG was to reframe the modern miracle of Israel, the first successful decolonization campaign in history, as actually being the prime example in the world of an oppressive, imperialist state that was built unjustly and at the expense of the ‘native population’. Operation SIG created an alliance that included Pan-Arabists, Pan-Islamists, and Nazism by focusing on what they all had in common: their hatred for Jews, for Israel, and for democracy.
The KGB’s tactics against Israel and the USA, which included carefully planted false stories about prominent leaders while seeking to convince the public at large that their reported falsehoods were true. By 1972, Andropov’s disinformation machinery was working around the clock to persuade the Islamic world that Israel and the USA intended to transform the rest of the world into a ‘Zionist fiefdom’. Andropov’s goal was to whip up illiterate, oppressed mobs in the Arab world to a fever pitch. In addition, he surmised that terrorism and violence against Israel and the USA would flow naturally from the Muslims’ antisemitic fervor. Besides making use of the Islamic world, he targeted his campaigns on the gullible leftist cabals: Communists, Marxists, Maoists, Trotskyists, Socialists, and the likes, such as fans of Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, Pol Pot and Mao Zedong.
Then in 1991, when the Soviet Union ceased to exist, the KGB was dismantled, and its functions were dispersed among various other parts of the new government, like spies often do, the KGB resurfaced with a different name, FSB, whose letters stand in Russian for Federal Security Service. Today, with a former KGB agent and FSB head named Vladimir Putin as the head of state, the organization once known as the KGB has regained much of its old reach and power. Nothing gained, nothing lost. Except that Russia now found a new ally, the Islamic Republic of Iran. Both Russia and Iran are dictatorships with the same goal: to undermine the international system, one on a political basis, communism, and territorial expansion, the other on a theocratic basis, the World Caliphate.
The Moscow-Tehran alliance’s mutual goal is to dominate the Middle East. It didn’t work out so perfectly for the USSR, but with this new alliance, it may now. Both support the Bashar al-Assad government of Syria, Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, PFLP in ‘the West Bank’, Houthis in Yemen, Al Qaeda in the Sinai, Boko Haram in Nigeria, ISIS in the sub-Saharan countries, and Al Shabab in Somalia. Both Russia and Iran also support CAIR (the US arm of the Muslim Brotherhood) and the dictatorships in Venezuela, Nicaragua and Bolivia. Iran’s IRGC controls the Tri-Border Area of Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay, where they are active in terrorism training (Hamas, Hezbollah) and foremost in money laundering, sales of arms, human and drugs trafficking.
The ‘old’ KGB dezinformatsiya campaign was revived and given a new life. On one hand, Russia continued its activities and expanded their collaborators to the far-right groups in Europe and North America, like the KKK, QAnon, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, National Action (UK), Nordic Resistance Movement (Scandinavia), Serbian Action (Serbia), Casa Pound (Italy), Golden Dawn (Greece), and Skydas (Lithuania). On the other hand, Russia increased its manipulation of Europe’s leftist and green parties in the UK (Labour), throughout Europe and in North America, mainly the ‘progressives’ of the Democratic party. Last, but not least, Russia and Iran increased their influences using the KGB’s concocted ‘Palestinian cause’ as a vehicle to foment and increase antisemitism, dressed up as anti-Zionism, on a global scale.
With the emergence of social media, Russia, together with the Islamic Republic of Iran, control more than 100 so-called NGOs of which Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, B’Tselem, Al-Haq, Hurryyat, Defence for Children, PCHR and ICHR are the most active. In addition, they operate at least 100 AI bots and have well over 50 notorious antisemites on their payroll who feed social media 24/7 with their fabrications and falsehoods.
Last but not least, the control of Russia, Iran, China, Cuba, Venezuela, South Africa, the Arab League nations and dozens of corruptible countries, not surprisingly the world’s major human rights abusers, over the UN, UNRWA, UNICEF, UNESCO, ICC, WHO, UNHRC, UNDP, UN WOMEN, ICJ, ILO evidences that these organizations are an absolute farce, obsessed with Israel whilst the world is on fire with hundreds of thousands are killed and starving to death year after year.
‘Free Palestine from the River to the Sea’ has become the war cry to replace free, democratic, multi-ethnic, multi-religious, successful Israel with another corrupt, Judenfrei, Islamic tyranny, to be named ‘Palestine’.

Everything (to the Americans) is conspiracy driven.
Once it does not align with their personal national aims and goals, then it is a conspiracy.
We are tired of being force fed with this twisted narratives.
We have HEARD other factions speak and have READ their versions.
Israel expected the attacks. They were prepared. Look nations especially Nigeria should learn from Israel. How could Nigeria have responded to almost 300 missiles and drone attacks over the entire country?
It's save facing and not balls because it took almost 2 hours for those missiles to reach Israel and more than 99% were taken down or neutralize. Iran knew they will be neutralize.
If Iran has balls it should have flown its jets.
Israel response will be to take out Iranian nuclear program in a systematic manner including hitting very strategic targets in the coming weeks. However, this will be after clearing Rafah.
Leave Nigeria out of this.
There are "developed" countries who don't even have what it takes to thwart 50 drone missiles (let alone 300), yet they are qualified as "developed nations".
What am saying is this: some countries have genuine reason to be militarily "up to date" while others truly have nothing to worry regarding technological weapon stockpile.
West Africa countries are not at war with any near by or far away countries. What they are experiencing are internal turmoil and not regional adversity.
The development of West African countries like Nigeria should not be judge by their military growth.
Situation (up to now) simply hasn't demanded it. No African nation has ever challenged or threaten Nigeria's sovereignty.
Muslim can talk shit about chritain but christain must be compel to swear to Allah which I will rather die than to swear to Islamic Allah just to post a comment.
farady: Most persons commenting here don't understand international politics, especially as it relates to the Middle East crisis. For those that are jubilating that Iran launched a direct strike at Israel, it's pretty not a surprise to Israel. Israel is the most prepared nation in the entire world for war at anytime especially from its neighbors.
The Iranian attack was a retaliatory strike and largely carried out as a save face measure not to be seen as a weakling in the region. This move by the Iranian has only added a new twist to the entire Middle East crisis and this would not be the end of it.
Even at that, the balls to initiate a "face saving retaliatory attack" (as you themed it) still says a lot about Iran not being a "push over" nation .
Don't forget a handful of Arab states are not really in friendship with Iran. It takes a lots of balls and guts to stand up to both domestic and foreign adversaries.
Been with this forum since 2007 And only changed moniker once), i dare to say Islam (as a religion) has suffered more unjustified attack on Nairaland than any other subject (of discussion) you can think of.
