nairaman66: If I may jump in here, bathing too frequently can remove essential oils from the skin. But the question of frequency depends on weather... Twice daily is okay for us here. 2 Likes |

AuschwitzPrefec: Funny enough Achebe actually confirms the brutality meted out to mid western tribes especially the Edoid groups. However, he took careful pains to claim they were merely beaten not killed. Reading "there was a country" really broke my heart as I lost so much respect for the man. 1 Like |

IfnobeGod20: Unfortunatley, while you are so quick to forget, others won't! If Peter was such a party man, why did he indirectly endorse PDP's Fubara for Rivers in 2023 or rather, shun his own party's candidate, when he was still seeking Wike's support desperately?? Why did LP adopt the PDP candidate? Here's a little something to jog that faulty memory of yours: https://www.channelstv.com/2023/03/07/labour-party-dumps-gov-candidate-in-rivers-adopts-pdps-fubara/ 1 Like |

Foreign Affairs / Re: Pagers Explode Across Lebanon, Injuring Dozens Of Hezbollah Members (photos) by SmartyPants(m): 6:37pm On Sep 18 |
Babalegba: Now you just sound pained that hezbollah took a blow because while you are here creating your own imaginary scenarios, all sources out there point to hamas members being the vast majority of victims. So if you insist that most of the casualties are civilians, just provide a credible source that says so. This is a horrible organization that dropped bombs on kids playing football just a few months ago, and have every intention to continue to do such if unchecked. If we check that thread, will we find any post of you condemning them or admonishing hezbollah supports not to support evil? Anyway just help is with the source that shows that the majority of victims are civilians as you claim. Thanks. |

Foreign Affairs / Re: Late Brig. Gen. Maxewell Khobe; General Par Excellence & Former Sierra Leone CDS by SmartyPants(m): 11:27am On Sep 18 |
ElevationD: This counter-argument takes reductionism to ridiculous lengths. I never said the Nigerian army was considered not to have any discipline at all. Every army has some discipline or it wouldn't be an army. That also means that for an army to be noted for its discipline, it must be exceptionally disciplined in comparison to other armies. Now, what does discipline imply in military terms? The ability to strictly comply with regulations and tactical instructions. Can an army that was prolific at coup-making be considered disciplined? Can an army that is renowned for rights abuse be considered disciplined? Certainly not when compared to other armies. Was the Nigerian army disciplined enough to execute its tactical imperatives well? Yes. But it has always been too indisciplined in other ways to be considered disciplined on the whole. It's really that simple. 1 Like |

Exousiang01: I clearly used the word "considered." At no point have I expressed my personal opinion on the question of whether the Nigerian army was disciplined or not. You don't need to roam about seeking unnecessary arguments. |

ElevationD: Nigeria's army has never been considered disciplined at any time. It was rather considered to be quite effective. Disciplined is the wrong word. 11 Likes 3 Shares |

Certify them, and they will still find something else illegal to do. I was expecting to hear that the miscreants have been arrested and will be charged before a court of law. Nonsense. 11 Likes |

Politics / Re: Controversy Trails Navy’s Issuance Of Bunkering License by SmartyPants(m): 12:25pm On Sep 13 |
Originalsly: 1. Obviously this was done under the direction of civilian authorities. I shared a resource earlier that provides some details on the framework of the arrangement, and it involves three civilian agencies, not the Navy alone. 2. The President can order such arrangements by way of executive order, provided there is no law forbidding it. Such executive order will then have the force of law. 3. The Army Chief cannot wake up and control the universities tomorrow or any other day. There are a plethora of laws that would stop him, including laws that govern the NUC and by extension the universities. Furthermore, of what use is such a question when clearly the Naval chief did not just wake up and assume the right to grant licenses? Where did you get this idea from?? 1 Like |
Politics / Re: Controversy Trails Navy’s Issuance Of Bunkering License by SmartyPants(m): 11:50am On Sep 13 |
Originalsly: It is normal because the law in Nigeria permits it. The Armed Forces Act is clear in stating that the Amred Forces may take on police duties as and when needed. Now the question of whether that may extend to the granting of licenses has nothing to do with democracy. The question, rather, is: is this permitted or forbidden by law? If the law is silent on this, then there are no grounds for claiming it is above the law. Which law? If the civilian authorities have directed the military to issue licenses and have not contravened any law that says they must not do so, in so doing, then there is absolutely no question of democracy or otherwise. 1 Like |

Brendaniel: I've observed you're not too clever, so your misguided comment doesn't surprise me, but you can manage by being more attentive. In this article, you were told that the Nigerian Customs Service routinely issues licenses for bunkering, which should have made you understand that there is illegal bunkering and there is legal bunkering. The point of this article is whether it is proper for the Navy to grant such licenses as opposed to the Customs Service. There is no illegal act here. Slow minds should read the above thrice please. The more clever ones may wish to gain a better understanding by reviewing this page: https://www.nuprc.gov.ng/fg-lifts-embargo-on-oil-bunkering-operations/ |

This is not inherently wrong if it is being doing within a formal legal framework. It's not relevant whether or not other countries do so too. We need Nigerian solutions for Nigerian challenges. |
