Crime / Re: Another Kidnapper Caught In Lagos Today, Nearly Lynched To Death By Mob (Pics) by zeemdam: 9:13pm On Aug 11, 2017
People lynch kidnappers because if arrested, they eventually get released. Even Evan might be released.

Arrested kidnappers are released due to lack of conclusive evidence. While matchet, calabash and other tools may be found with them, these are nit enough to get a conviction in court. It is only in cases were the perpetrators are caught with body parts or a victim is available to testify that the kidnappers can be brought to justice.

So don't be surprised is Evans becomes a free man 2mao or this man that was rescued by the police today resumes kidnapping next 3 years.

Personally, i don't approve of lynching. However, i wish we could just lock them up forever.

Career / Re: Termination Of Appointments At My Place Of Work by zeemdam: 10:07pm On Aug 06, 2017
ferdinandgeorge:
At my place of work last week, all the staff were summoned on and a letter was issued to all staff in that organization saying that our appointment have been terminated. In the letter we were told to reapply. Everybody was confused. My question is why did such decision made against us.. And is there still hope that they reinstate all of us after reapplying.

Please I need ur advice.. And what should I write when reapply

Usually, when you work in a place for a long period of time (say 5 years or more) , you are entitled to some gratuity when you resign.

What your company is doing is that they are trying to avoid paying that gratuity by terminating your contracts and offering you new ones so in ur files, it will be that you were newly employed. I won't be surprised if it becomes an annual thing.
This way, someone who spends as much as 25 years in the company will not be entitled to any gratuity on leaving as the duration that will count will be from his latest contract

Religion / Re: Why Is Sex Attached To Sin By Most Religion? by zeemdam: 4:00pm On Jul 30, 2017
SnowJay92:


I'm not sure I understand, you said oral is allowed, is the mouth biologically made for sex? If fluid is deposited in the mouth during oral, won't the mouth expel it?

Expulsion of fluid from the mouth is voluntary (can be controlled), some may choose to swallow. Expulsion from the anus is not.

Absorption by the Vagina is also involuntary (if it were voluntary, people would not need condoms to avoid unwanted pregnancy). The Vagina was made to absorb seminal fluid beyond your control. The Anus was not made to absorb fluid and so it expulsion of it is beyond conscious control.

In the case of MouthAction, Seminal fluid that may be deposited is voluntarily expelled or other wise swallowed as the case may be. You have conscious control.

Curious, why is anal sex prohibited?

Amongst other reasons, the anus is not biologically made for sex. It expels seminal fluid released into it.

stonemasonn:
I've never stopped wondering why sex is such a big issue to most religious people.

If it is not the sexual style/position, it the orientation issues or pre-marital sex.

I even heard that in some religion, some righteous people pray before having sex and take their birth immediately after orgasm to cleanse themselves of the act. They believe sex is sin

I made a research online from psychology today and I got this article that says sexy thoughts reduces religious belief.

If so, could the love of, and thoughts of sex be a threat to religion??

In Islam, Sex is not a sin. It is unlawful sex that is a sin.
Unlawful sex is sex that you have with someone that is not your husband or wife.
Note: Your wife in this case refers to a woman whom you have paid her dowry. Husband refers to someone who paid your dowry.

Sex is in fact a beautiful thing in Islam. As long as it is between husband and wife, all sex positions, fore play and even MouthAction is permitted. Anal sex is however prohibited.

In Islam, Marriage is compulsory for those who are capable, and Husbands and wives are commanded to to satisfy each other sexually.

Being capable of marriage in Islam refers to the ability to pay bride price and cater for the wife and subsequently, the child/children. The ceremony/party itself is useless

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: How High Can You Work? Check These High Altitude Jobs(Photos) by zeemdam: 10:27am On Jul 30, 2017

what are you saying?

There is no up or down in space. There is no gravity, there is no beginning and no end. Every measurement is relative. All measurements taken on earth are so because of the properties of the earth (especially gravity). Since Armstrong was striding on the moon (d surface of the moon), he was at a height of zero relative to the moon.

Health / Re: There Are No Killer Anti-malaria Drugs In Nigeria - NAFDAC by zeemdam: 6:14pm On Jul 26, 2017
Godson222:
The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has said that there are no €˜killer anti-malaria drugs in Nigeria.


The Acting Director-General, NAFDAC, Dr. Yetunde Oni, who stated this yesterday at a news conference in Lagos, said the reports in the social media on the ‘kidney-killer’ malaria drugs were false as there are no such drugs in the country.



Against the backdrop of the dangers posed by the drugs, the Senate had flayed the NAFDAC and Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) for not adequately waging the war against the influx of fake and sub-standard items into the country.



The NAFDAC boss said the allegedly banned drugs are oral monotherapies containing single Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) such as Artesunate as contained in Arinate tablet, Amodiaquine contained in Comoquine, Dihydroartemisinin contained in Alaxin tablets and Pyrimethamine contained in Daraprim tablets which are not recommended for the treatment of malaria in Nigeria.



She said the agency is committed to the well-being of Nigerians and so wishes to douse the tension and correct the misinformation on the social media and mainstream media about the banned drugs.



Oni said: “We want to douse the tension and correct the misinformation on the social and mainstream media about the 42 anti-malaria medicines purportedly banned by the European Union (EU) but allegedly circulating in the country.



The Acting DG, therefore, urged Nigerians to use the recommended anti-malarial medicine Artemisin Combination Therapies (ACTs) for the treatment of malaria, which is in line with the guidelines according to the WHO and the Nigeria National Anti-malarial Treatment Policy.



She, however, noted that with the progress made in the anti-counterfeiting technology device (Scratch and Text) put in place by the agency to monitor fake drugs, the agency would in some weeks deploy software on phones to checkmate the status of any NAFDAC regulated products.



Responding on the use of chloroquine as an anti-malarial drug, Director, Registration and Regulation Affairs, NAFDAC, Mrs. Titi Owolabi, said though the drug is in the market, it does not serve as anti-malaria as it has its own functions.



She urged Nigerians to stop using the drug in the treatment of malaria as it serves another purpose.

Nairaland / General / Re: Introverts, Share Your Challenges Here by zeemdam: 11:48pm On Jul 20, 2017
lelvin:
You guys got me smiling at my phone like a mumu. It's not easy being an introvert, some times I wake up and I don't want to talk to anyone. And they will be like, 'what's wrong with you'.
You all know how it is in our head! We can love ehn! But when we hate, even the devil sits to learn. #1L

Similar applies to me.
I can love like no tomorrow, but i can do opposite just as well.
Nairaland / General / Re: Introverts, Share Your Challenges Here by zeemdam: 11:41pm On Jul 20, 2017
I've used to be an introvert ( or I thought i was), though i was always outspoken amongst friends (max i have at a time is 3) until my Undergraduate days, 300L upwards, when people usually say that i have two personalities of which one is great and the other is irritating, i found my self to be an ambivert

Sometimes i can be very jovial, almost talkative in class or in the midst of other crowd. I engage everyone in a discussion and make jokes about almost everyone. One would almost mistake me for a comedian. People love this guy, coupled with the fact that i was among the best in class.

Other days, i will just be on my own, not relating with anyone, just doing my thing. In such cases, I get questions like 'what's wrong?, 'You are not cheerful today' and i will be like 'nothing, I'm fine'. This introvert side of me has caused a lotta misunderstandings especially with the ladies as they expect to always meet that outspoken and jovial guy they kno, and on days I'm not, they will think i am mad at them for something or i am snobbing them, or i just don't want them around.

This lead me to being extra conscious around ladies and try to make my extrovert side available always, a feat i couldn't achieve even with tedious effort. I tried many times to do away with my introvert personality but to no avail. I have stopped trying and have accepted both sides of me.

I do party on occasion and i party hard on such occasions.

I Currently have 3 friends (the highest I've ever had) out if which i frequently communicate with 2 because they contact me frequently. I hardly call my friends. They do most of the calling.

I rarely chat, mostly visit Facebook and Twitter as a ghost (hardly update, comment or tweet)and This is probably my longest post on Nairaland.

As much as i wished (i have stopped wishing) to always be an extrovert, I love the Introvert part of myself as i rarely feel lonely when I'm alone and it gives me ample time to think and plan.

Education / Re: UNIBEN PG Students' Ordeal by zeemdam: 7:33pm On Jul 20, 2017
kellyboo:
*UNIVERSITY OF BENIN COUNCIL / MANAGEMENT PULLS OUT FROM TREASURY SINGLE ACCOUNT (TSA)*
The University of Benin Council/ Management pulls out from Treasury Single Account (TSA),
Opens an account with Unity Bank, Uniben Branch: Account title: Uniben Staff Retreat/ External Assessors, Account no: 0014419470. The aforementioned account is used to drain postgraduate students on or before completion of their program. The PG students are forced to pay #30000, #60000, and #90000 for PgD, MSc and PhD students respectively into the account all in the name of paying for External Examiners for project/oral defense, while the students through their departments are also mandated to pay External Examiners at the point of oral defense on the premise that the school cannot access the account domicile at unity Bank. Studying in UNIBEN and upon completion of your study, you are made to realize that you cannot get your result approved by the senate or do the relevant clearance after approval by senate to get your statement of result/ certificate until you pay the said amount. Our certificates are being kidnapped for a ransom fee of #30000, #60000 and #90000 for PgD, MSc and PhD students respectively. Fellow Nigerian students, are postgraduate students to pay for the retreat of staff in the university of Benin? Pls let's join hands together and help stop this corrupt practice in the institution.

EFCC, ICPC and other relevant financial institutions should conduct proper investigation on the issue to stop this corrupt act.

Read and share until it get to all relevant authorities.

Whether it gets to the relevant authorities or not, some one has to write a formal petition to EFCC against Uniben PG School before EFCC can launch any investigation
Politics / Re: Natives And Fulani Herdsmen Clash In Kaduna, 37 Killed by zeemdam: 10:04am On Jul 19, 2017
I just listened to a program on this fulani herdsmen issue. Like the speaker said, It seems this fulani people are enjoying some kind if protection similar to that of diplomats.

They get away with literally any crime and no action has been taken against them, not even on paper.

As much as i don't like the way Fayose has turned Ekiti state to IDP camp, I do respect him for being the only one to stand against this fulani herdsmen menace and taking action.

Kindly learn to read between the line, she is a pharmacist and from experience, she is right about the diagnose, and good enough she referred them to see a doctor. It doesnt matter whether she is kid or an adult, it is all about health. After all, there are doctors for children. So because she is kid, one cannot show concern about her health? Obesity is medical term it is not an insult or abuse. They say health is wealth. Seyi law bia, kindly take your kid to see a doctor.. Biko!

Kemi may he intelligent but in this case she has only displayed stupidity.

If she really meant to help, she would have privately contacted seyi law and family on the issue not mentioning it publicly in the first place.

If she wanted to educate Nigerians on child obesity, she should have done that in general, not by referring to seyi law's child.

Lastly, after all said and done, She should have just picked on seyi law directly. why did she continue to pick on d baby constantly comparing her with all fat animals known to mankind.

For Goodness sake, its a baby, A BABY.

Crime / Re: Four Men Gang-rape 15-year Old Girl In Lagos by zeemdam: 7:44pm On Jul 13, 2017
BUSHHUNTER:
1. She probably followed the dude to the said room thinking he was the only bastard in there.


2.Our judicial system is so very weak! Why would he be granted a bail of 500k after enough evidence of ground?


I thought the punishment for rape was 7yrs though was told is now 5yrs...which ever one it is.


One major problem we have in this Fuvked up country is the Judiciary! One can easily get a pass after killing somebody.

The bail here does not mean he is free. It only means he will not be in jail until his case is judged after which his money will he refunded. If he is then sentenced, he will do the time.

Bail is actually free. The amount attached to a bail is just a collateral sum you pay to ensure you don't abscond while the case is on. Bail sums are usually accompanied by you having to provide one or two guarantors as well who will also put down collaterals as set by the court.

Once the case is concluded, regardless of whether the accused is sentenced or acquitted, the bail sum is usually refunded by the court.

In cases where the accused cannot meet the bail conditions, he or she stays in jail until the case is concluded. If later acquitted, will be set free. If sentenced however, the time spent in jail while the case was on going will be deducted from the sentence and the rest will be served.

In the case of this rapist, i don't think he will be able to meet the conditions as, apart from the 500k, he is to provide two sureties that will also put down 500k each as collateral.

Whether you vote or not, you will have a governor. You can only decide who the governor is. If you don't come out to decide, don't complain when APC wins o
