Do you think the majority of Nigerians, the common men and women....are ungrateful like you? They have more empathy than you do...they are more reasonable than many of you with titles like PhD welded to your names.....they know how well @mbuhari has done and they want continuity
The social welfare programs you say aren't real even after evidence is shown to you are being enjoyed by these people...their loved ones in cities are happy that some of the burden was taken off their shoulders by the likes of @HUPcct...who do you think such people will vote for?

PETER OBI ON CNN
MY CANDID VIEW
Dr Uche Diala
I made special effort to attentively watch the Labour Party candidate, Mr Peter Obi's interview live on CNN to the end. I have also objectively watched the recorded video at least 4 times since last night and it has only left a bitter taste in my mouth.

Will @PeterObi die if he doesn’t lie? He was in a church telling the dolts who were lapping up the piffle he was spewing that @Siemens_Energy hasn’t moved beyond mere negotiations with Nigeria on the #presidentialpowerinitiative. Silly man.
The initiative has gone really far. Nigerian representatives have gone to inspect the equipment and they will be shipped to Nigeria by September. Check @OvieNews for more but this pathological liar, this mentally disturbed @PeterObi was lying that nothing has started

“By all means let an observant Jewish adult male have his raw-cut penis placed in the mouth of a rabbi. (That would be legal, at least in New York.) By all means let grown women who distrust their clitoris or their labia have them sawn away by some other wretched adult female.
By all means let Abraham offer to commit filicide to prove his devotion to the Lord or his belief in the voices he was hearing in his head. By all means let devout parents deny themselves the succor of medicine when in acute pain and distress.

No one is too old to be president - The Washington Post washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/0…
The near-unanimous consensus of gerontologists in the past several decades has been that elderly people are more cognitively capable and adaptable than our prejudices indicate. The vast majority of people in their 70s do not show signs of dementia.

It’s all in the brain!!!
“This stimulation of religious experiences via the temporal lobes is not just an academic oddity or artifact of magnets in a lab. The temporal lobes are crucial for speech, and a common element of religious experiences is hearing the voice of a god.
A little comparison here may be telling enough. I wrote two articles in 2007 in the national media calling attention of the @officialABAT government in @followlasg to the absence of basic infrastructure in most parts of the Lekki Peninsula.
On the day landlords in the area were meeting Tinubu over the state of roads in the Ajah part of the peninsula, @abati1990 , then the chairman of The Guardian editorial board, coincidentally published a third article of mine on this lack of infrastructure entitled

What kind of lie is this? @thekaysie your preferred aspirant is so childishly duplicitous, he makes me want to throw up food I’ve never eaten! How can he lie that no investment has been done in the power sector? He must be sure that his followers are intellectually deficient
I’m amazed that Islam seemed to have completely wiped out the history of traditional religion in northern nigeria especially amongst the Hausas. This is not good. This syncretism seems total as I can’t seem to find much about gods worshipped there before Islam was imported
I found some interesting ones though and I wonder if they are still worshipped today.

The true value of a man is not determined by his possession, supposed or real, of Truth, but rather by his sincere exertion to get to the Truth.
It is not possession of the Truth, but rather the pursuit of Truth by which he extends his powers and in which his ever-growing perfectibility is to be found. Possession makes one passive, indolent, and proud.
