grin olodo Arab never invade Yoruba land talk on subjugate them the Yoruba that practicing islam accept it by what they believe same thing goes to christianity as well.
BaddestQueen:
Yoruba Muslims are originally from Mali and not real Yorubas.

But due to the accommodating nature of the original Yorubas, they invaded yoruba land and start oppressing real Yorubas religiously and politically.
they always blackmail real Yorubas emotionally and otherwise.
they're gradually spreading and if any real yoruba talk he'll be hushed and be called either bastard or omo ale.
they resoundingly rejected Osibanjo and ridiculed him to the highest but expecting real Yorubas to support their criminal Tinubu.
but thank God real Yorubas are waking up from their slumber and putting these invaders into their rightful place.

God bless real Yorubas
thunder scatter Tinubu
thunder scatter Tinubu urchins

SmartPolician:
In truth, this lady is out to prove that what a man can do, a woman can do better. This is really commendable because our women need to be independent to add more value to our society. For instance, if we didn't have someone like Okonjo-Iweala, which Nigérian would have considered winning the bid to lead World Trade Organisation?

However, many ladies mistake neofeminism for feminism. Those neofeminists need to understand that many educated guys - I don't mean the SENSELESS alpha males on Nairaland - want their wives to be financially independent. So, there's no basis for competition and rancour between the two genders.

Congratulations to Amanda!


What a man can do, a woman can do better is the biggest lie and deception in history... no woman can equal what a man can do...but men will always better what a woman can do ... mention one thing a man can do that a woman betters, or even equals ...but I can mention stuffs that men are better at than women , original stuffs than women are known to do

This funny girl.

Being a known writer does not equal chiefdom.

It's sad but this can only happen in Iboland. I'm ibo, though.

She's earned her dues alright so far as the written word goes but, what societal building values does she espouse?

Adichie is anti family.
This girl believes in same sex marriage, hates the Vatican and much more.

The traditional family unit as created by God made up of the man and woman is central to the basic Ibo family as the primary bulwark upon which the progressive society rests.

So, the traditional ibo family units made up of normal man heads and women mothers came together and gave her a chieftaincy title?

A lot of people are blind in present times, really.

The joke is on you - Yoruba have been doing this before independence, we have always run inclusive clans, and women have always had a place in decision-making (Iyalojas, Iyalodes, Iyalajes, etc)very Yoruba kingdom had a hierarchy of female chiefs -1. Erelu kuti - Abiola Dosunmu, ) 2. Hon Abike Dabiri-Erewa. 3 Funmilayo Ransome Kuti. 4 Queen Moremi Ajasoro. 5 Alimotu Pelewura. 6 Elizabeth Abimbola Awoliyi.

That's why the land is progressive grin grin grin grin allows all Dick, Tom, and Harry to come and be progressive, but today the ingrates are saying the developed Lagos grin grin grin

Nice one.. I will believe all these equalities the moment women start going to man's village to seek his hand in marriage with her people and paying groom price.
Been happening for thousands or years. Culture varies from place to place.

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has advocated for a culture that celebrates men and women alike, IGBERETV reports.

The celebrated writer who was recently made a Chief in her hometown, Abba, Anambra State, and given the title of "Odeluwa" said this on Instagram while sharing a video from her conferment ceremony.

She wrote:

She came short of calling her father, a local champion.

All these feminists.

Progressive diversity makes a country or region progress.

Congrats Chimamanda, it’s a well deserved honor. Still doesn’t mean that women’s opinions will carry weight where men are talking in that village though. It’s a man’s world out here, I didn’t make it like that, we only met it that way! cool
