@yumchaforall @Karigwe THERE ARE QUEER PEOPLE EVERYWHERE. Because they hide it doesn't mean they don't exist! Even in the most religious places with the strictest of laws. That's because it's not a choice

@BadreddineA @PeakSxnti Sad it had to come to that. I’m glad the Senegalese were able to stand for themselves and made a point in the face of being cheated. At that point in the eyes of the world Algeria were already not worthy winners anyway.

Yes soft but the referee had already blown for a foul hence no var, yes the penalty was soft but sometimes they get given sometimes not! Does that justify their coach behaviour?? He was disgraceful and showcased the worst of African football. Sadio Mané is a legend( loved him at my team LFC) and still do. Congratulations to him and the Senegal players👏….but the coach? He should be banned for life for that behaviour.

Jehovah’s Witnesses take modern medicine seriously. They go to hospitals, get surgeries, take medications, do chemo, get vaccines… basically the full range of standard medical care. Take Covid for example: they approached it with a mix of caution, organisation and strict internal consistency. They were one of the few large religious groups that shifted their entire global routine very quickly and stayed with it. They suspended all in-person meetings, conventions and door-to-door preaching early in the pandemic, long before many governments mandated it. Their worship moved fully online. They took public-health guidance seriously. They encouraged masks, distancing and hygiene measures, and they followed local regulations and never resisted them. Their official publications consistently framed these actions as practical expressions of caring for others. Additionally, they did not oppose Covid vaccination, and many jws viewed vaccination as a responsible medical decision consistent with their general acceptance of modern medicine. They also quickly adapted their ministry. Door-to-door work stopped worldwide and did not return for more than two years. Instead, they wrote letters, made phone calls and used digital tools for outreach. This was historically unusual for them because personal, physical ministry is central to their identity. They treated this as both a safety measure and an opportunity to preach or distribute content without travel or crowding to avoid infecting others. Anyone who is familiar with their disaster response system during natural disasters can testify that they use a similar approach and that they take science and community very seriously. The single line they don’t cross is blood transfusion. This is because of how they interpret the biblical instruction to “abstain from blood” in Acts 15:28–29. For them it isn’t exclusively a food rule but a moral boundary, so they avoid transfusions of whole blood and its major components: red cells, white cells, platelets and plasma. When it comes to smaller blood derivatives (like albumin or certain immunoglobulins and similar products) each jw decides for themselves. The same applies to procedures where their own blood stays connected to their body in a closed loop. I grew up holding that stance too but my understanding of the verse changed as an adult; I now interpret it as a dietary rule that was valid at a time when eating and cleansing oneself with animal blood was common in ancient pagan traditions. Of course, the rule was made by people for whom blood rituals were the limit of their imagination based on their current reality. Today, modern medicine has advanced and allowed us the gift of saving others’ lives by giving them our blood and I do not believe that a loving god would rather watch his children die for his own ego rather than accept the kindness of extending or saving their lives through blood transfusion. But even though they don’t accept blood transfusion, they (mostly) approach it with care (or at least this has always been my understanding however a little bit complex). They often use what is called “bloodless medicine” which are techniques designed to manage or replace lost blood without using donor blood. Some medical centres have dedicated protocols because they’ve been treating jw patients for decades. Unfortunately, the reality in Nigeria when it comes to “bloodless medicine” protocols for jws and how widespread they are is a patchwork. There are doctors and hospitals in Nigeria who have treated jw patients with bloodless surgery approaches, but it is not yet uniformly or widely adopted. This makes it incredibly and disproportionately risky to be a jw in need of critical blood transfusion in Nigeria. Being a Nigerian in need of critical healthcare is already risky enough given our broken medical system, so this adds an extra layer of risk. So, overall: they welcome medical care, but blood transfusion is a spiritual no-go area. That one belief has shaped entire fields of bloodless techniques and also means they’re usually very clear about advance directives so doctors know how to treat them responsibly. Generally, especially when lives are at risk, I advocate for understanding, respect and empathy in caring for people with unconventional religious beliefs. I too once lost a close childhood friend to this belief, and I know a number of people who have gone the same way too. My beef is with the organisation’s governing body for holding onto this archaic position and refusing to adapt which has cost thousands of lives. Sadly, this is the tension between ancient texts and modern medicine which isn’t unique to jws. Every tradition that treats an ancient text as morally binding faces the same challenge: how to apply ideas shaped in a pre-scientific world to technologies the authors could not have imagined. I’ll continue to hope their stance on blood transfusion is eventually reversed, just as they once reversed their position on organ transplants. It is unnecessary. It is inhumane.

She also studied medical anatomy, She’s a singer, a visual artist, She owns a farm in Nigeria. She’s currently 28 and has built a house for herself, one for her sister and one for her mother, She recently rounded up her artist residency in the Institut für Ethnologie und Afrikastudien Department of Anthropology and African Studies Johannes Gutenberg University, Germany, where she interacted with an African musical archive that very few Nigerians get to see, A couple of people have written their master’s and phd thesis on her work as queer artist, because in academic spaces where intellectuals occupy and people are dedicated to critical thought, she’s well regarded, She has 6 albums, a published book and is preparing to publish another one, She speaks 4 languages ,plays 5 instruments,writes, sings, sculpts, paints, is an all round creative. What you described is typical “gifted” Kid, lmao, we usually grow up to question, We question the system, We question society, we rebel, we find some answers , wrong or right, But we are not dishonest. I was never going to end up like any of you normies and this desire to make my story sound like some tragedy is very telling of your own level of awareness. “Turned out like this”, like what? Private, tattooed, gay, wealthy, VISIBLY UNINTERESTED IN CONFORMING TO SOCIETAL STANDARDS!? Famz me with your chest please. This is not nollywood.

A leftist asshole rode through a Charlie Kirk vigil on scooter in front of the Idaho State Capitol yelling, "Fuck Charlie Kirk!" He promptly got his ass beat. The people have had enough.

@lekan_olayinka1 Heya, sorry, receive fortitude to bear your loss. But how did the person who killed him get a gun? Why was the person allowed to just have a gun?, oh wait, that was the ‘American values’ he and some people push hard for right?

My guy is gone 😭 😭 😭 Just 31. His crime? He thought America should be put first. He thought illegal criminals shouldn’t be aloud to destroy the nation. He thought children shouldn’t be butchered in the name of transgenderism. He thought men shouldn’t be in women’s sports. He thought men can’t be women and women can’t be men. He thought abortion was murder. He thought merit-based society is the better society. He thought the family is the foundation of society. He thought Christianity was true and good. He thought White people are not inherently evil. He thought White people and White culture should be celebrated. And he did this with such grace, openness and fairness. He invited his opponents to speak freely and fairly. But guess who were angry? Those on the left. Those who think there are hundreds of genders. Those who think surgically removing the breasts, wombs, of children in the name of transgenderism is “Gender affirming Care”. Those who think abortion is a right. Those who think women killing babies is “reproductive healthcare”. Those who think men dressing in women’s bathrooms is “inclusiveness”. Those who think men in dresses are automatically women so excluding them from female sports is “discrimination”. Those who champion radical feminism which celebrates no-cause divorce and promiscuity. Those who think white men are oppressors. Those who think Christians are oppressors. Those who think speaking English is an oppression. Those who think owning a home is an oppression. Those who think merit is wrong. That a person should be given roles based on race, color, and gender. They scream inclusion until it’s a white Christian heterosexual person. They scream empathy and freedom until someone says Ken cannot be women and they cancel him and ruin their career. Those were the people who killed Charlie Kirk, a Christian father of three. They shot him in the neck, and they are celebrating on TikTok. Rest well, soldier. This world will miss you🕊️

Nothing tightens a Nigerian’s mouth faster than the fear that you might succeed quicker than they did. It’s not just silence. It’s a strategy. And more often than not, it’s disguised as humility, caution, or the ever-familiar “it is well.” But underneath, it’s the old instinct to protect the struggle and guard the glory. Because if you didn’t bleed for it, you haven’t earned it. So when you ask them to share the name of a sponsoring company, it’s not just a question. It’s a threat. A threat to the myth that their journey was exceptional. If they hand you a shortcut, what happens to the prestige of the long road? The years of waiting and rejection, the near-deportation stories they tell at parties. If you get it quickly, what does that say about them? That’s where the “I better pass my neighbor” spirit creeps in. It’s not always loud, but it’s there. In the vague replies, the awkward silences, the “it is well” that shuts the door without sounding cruel. Some of them genuinely believe that if too many people come through the same route, it will close. The room will get smaller. That their own story will lose weight. And I get it. When you’ve had to fight for everything, it’s hard to believe anything should come easy for someone else. But there’s a difference between protecting your path and hoarding the map. At some point, you have to decide what kind of elder you want to be. The one who makes it easier for others or the one who needs it to stay hard, so your survival feels more noble. You cannot be both.

If you genuinely love nigeria, If you truly love this country, If you are not after power at any means, Then this current coalition - and some of the people at the helm of it- should bother you. But it looks like, at this point, We now want power at any cost, at any price.

Children were slaughtered and then burnt to ashes. At night. While in their sleep. That video has terribly traumatised me. Yet some of you still support this government, defend this evil animalistic party and you promote this incompetent buffoon in Aso Rock. Where is your soul?

When Nigerians living in the UK talk about how much they love the UK and how they have now grown so much resentment for Nigeria, you won’t see Nigerians living in the UK that still love Nigeria try and talk down on their experience or reality. But when it’s Nigerians living in the UK that come out to say how much they miss Nigeria, their family etc, you start seeing different takes and self glorification from the other set. Why? Must you force your preference and reality on others? Must everybody join you in having resentment towards Nigeria? These people have never tried to talk down on your love for UK and resentment for Nigeria. They leave you to express your feelings. Allow them express whichever way they feel about Nigeria and the UK, too. Are you people cursed? Why is it always when they express how much they miss Nigeria that you remember all you’ve achieved in the UK? Trying to suppress their feelings when you don’t even know their reality?
