Angelfrost:
Mandarin is largely there because of the population size of those speaking it within one nation...! It isn't widely spoken, and shouldn't be on that list.

Not sure you understood the headings.

Nbotee:
Lolzzz.. This people in government are shameless. Burkina Faso got an invite and sent the President of their constitutional council. Burundi sent it's Vice President, South Sudan and South African Presidents were also invited. Only Nigeria will make it about them like tye world revolves around them

The pope appealed for the physical presence of the president of Nigeria.

billyG:
The drug traders union are too docile cant they embarked on massive protests so that CNN,BBC,will cover it,WHO,trump will hear?

I was told the chairman was appointed and planted by the governor. So he doesn't represent the interests of the traders. A market person told me they protested, but the chairman himself went on radio and denied they're of the market.

I URGE PEOPLE TO READ BEFORE COMMENTING.

Amingol:
It is wrong to assert that only spiritual intervention can end insecurity in Nigeria.

Couldn't you read before commenting?

tonesky:
If truly, this comes from the Naval Chief then docility is ruling the country.

Tell me the truth. Did you read the whole article?

Bluffly:
If 1000 shops have been able to pay it, then the entire market are culprits.

If you're kidnapped and you paid ransom, then you're an accomplice?

Guestmale:
Until I hear NAFDAC side of the story,I remain skeptic

Socratiz:
VDM should have posted one of the payment receipts of one of the traders for us to believe that this allegation is true. Something is fishy

It's not an allegation. I know someone who has paid. Not sure you are in Onitsha.

dominique:
Even with that, you still became the richest man in Africa so what exactly is the issue?

G0odharddick:
Why is this man lamenting?

Is it you guys couldn't understand the post, or what?

The Pope made a special request that Tinubu be physically present at the Inauguration.

The pope had visited Nigeria several times, up to nine times.

He was invited to Abuja in 2016 for the Mid-Chapter Assembly of the Nigerian Augustinians while he served as Bishop of Chiclayo in Peru.

Just before he became the Pope, Cardinal Robert Prevost was expected in Nigeria in July this year for the ordination of new priests in the Augustinian order. So he's had some experiences in Nigeria.

OctavianAC:
Why inaugurating someone who has been functioning in an office already?

Inauguration serves several purposes, even if someone has already been functioning in the office:
- Symbolic transition: Inauguration marks a formal transition from one term to another, emphasising the start of a new period.
- Legitimisation: It publicly confirms the person's authority and legitimacy in the role.
- Ceremonial significance: Inaugurations often involve rituals, speeches and celebrations, which can boost morale, build unity and create a sense of occasion.
- Renewed mandate: Inauguration can symbolise a renewed commitment to the office and its responsibilities.

OctavianAC:
Which inauguration again? Is it inauguration as the head of the Vatican city or as the Pope? Or has he not been Poping for the past one week?

Stop pretending to be obtuse.

donleo92:
But this stuff don dey internet since last week na... Why be say na today nairaland come decide to put am online

Nairaland is a forum, not news channel.

Northernblood7:
My problem with this man is that he ed gays and lesbians. Sharp contrast to what Bible says.

He said he's against laws jailing and fining homosexuals. He maintained homosexual acts were sinful and NOT in line with Catholic doctrine. Get your facts right.

GanagiBitrus:
SEC & other agencies shouldn't be licensing &or allowing such dubious schemes to operate, & scam Nigerians.

Who told you they were licenced?

Juell:
after MMM I learnt my lesson, MMM was even 10% monthly.

30% (Naira), 50% (Bitcoin).

Mrreed:
There is a brand "Haisic" that sells 25.6v 8kwh for 800k (as contained in their spec sheet, it's a Grade B battery)

How good is Haisic?

MightySparrow:
Many people criticizing Nwosu will melt away in the presence of an empty gun.

What of afterwards, during democracy? He could have said the truth if he had lied.

MightySparrow:
He would not have done that under the despot called Babangida.

gidgiddy:
It's easy to ask why a civilian like Nwosu did not publicly announce June 12th results against the wishes of Generals with guns

Una no dey read?

Hemanwel:
And I am not sure he is killing it for a special occasion.

How would you know?

KnowledgePower7:
After IBB. No more coups till now

Abacha?

eepeepook:
Put a fifty year old in the seat of power.

Not easy to rise through the ranks in shorter years.

Yes, a pope can be 50 years old. However, in the history of the Catholic Church, it's been relatively rare for a pope to be that young.

The average age of popes at the time of their election is around 65-70 years old. Some popes have been elected at a younger age, but it's uncommon.

Here are a few examples:

- Pope Pius IX was elected at 54 years old.
- Pope Leo X was elected at 37 years old.
- Pope John XII was elected at 27 years old.

Despite these exceptions, it's generally expected that a pope will be an older, more experienced cleric with a strong track record of leadership and service within the Church.

Laird:
Your husband slapped You in Canada, a western country. This sounds so fake

So it never happens, and if it does, it is fake?

gohf:
Rom.4.20 Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God,...

How did we have Ishmael?

ion007:
Context is everything.

NikoWinaman:
Something like this also happened to me in that same UK as at 2009.

Jagaban2012:
...why can not they speak their native language instead of stressing over borrowed language?...

Lovelyn451:
Saying drugs sounds to me like hard substances..

Oloki:
Our own use or meaning of English can easily put us into trouble.

ion007:
Are you really teaching English people how to speak English?

atobs4real:
We are used to. Bad English...

It is not bad English. She rightly used the word "drugs." The police were just needlessly paranoid.

GistMedia0:
Others have expressed concerns over the body-shaming comment, particularly his dislike of "fat girls."

Not liking fat girls is body-shaming?

EXOUSIAng:
19 states in the North
5 states in the East

This is wrong information. Get your facts right.

TimiofAbuja:
Obafemi Awolowo University no 19. I don't still understand what's is wrong with Great Ife

Don't consider the ranking important.

highchief1:
so what u spend on ur duplex is what jowizaza will spend on his duplex even tho it’s same size.the way una Dey talk

How wise you are that jowizaza is a representative example! It's actually ignorant to say a regular duplex costs that much. N60 to N70 million is Ok for a 6-bedroom duplex.

GanagiBitrus:
If na man, she would have been very conscious of his presence & not such pix on SM.

Yes, but mistakes do happen.

highchief1:
duplex standard 180-200m.

You don't need that much.

YoursDola:
It's just too hard for me to endure and I don't know if it's going to get any better (or get slightly soft so that I can enjoy the mattress

Use the other side of the mattress.

JIBO4REAL:
Which site can I see this chat clearly?

I can confirm that the Naira depreciated last December.

I was on the outlook to buy cheaper Dollar last December because of the so-called Christmas inflow only to be disappointed.

@PressMyButton, MrEverest

just2endowed:
its normal. during december there seems to be significant inflow of dollars from abroad and every family will want to send money home to theior love ones..

That didn't happen 2023 December. Naira kept losing last December. Does that mean those abroad didn't send money in 2023?

Flangelo12:
Noodles aren't bad. Instant noodles - Indomie et al. contain a lot of MSG, salt and chemicals.

What is the difference between noodles and instant noodles?
