Katsumoto: I'm glad you're here. Do you see all that? NB+ They are so vicious! They've chased OAM4J from his own thread. SMH for the Diasporan Naijirians o. I am so glad I am still at home with my people, in Isale-Gangan, never forgetting the language and how to behave in public. |
Re: O Ye My People! by isalegan2: 10:34pm On Dec 11, 2011 |
BTW, "Tapa" are the Nupe people. That's what we call them in Eko-Ile. They're an integral and fully assmilated part of Eko people o. Lots of families are mixed with Tapa. Barrister's mom was Tapa, but his father was from Ibadan, not Lagos. |

Tapa aka Nupe tribe, Fon is a tribe from Benin republic. In short, Isale is half Nupe/Tapa and half Fon from Togo so she's not even a Nigerian, not to mention Yoruba. isale_gan2: Oh no you DIDN'T. Anyone who calls me Debby[b] ma je iyan e n'isu[/b]. The gloves are now off!! Make pesin no hold me oh! |

Re: O Ye My People! by isalegan2: 1:33am On Dec 12, 2011 |
I've never used google translation for Yoruba, but for that one time. That'd be cheating. Anyhow, I don't care anymore. OlaOne that started it has probably forgotten all about it by now anyway. So, eyin eniyan yi, e joo e wa n kan mi discuss. I can't comment on whether Katsumoto uses a translator sha. It never entered my mind. |

Israel Acts to Curb Illegal Immigration From Africa JERUSALEM — The Israeli government on Sunday announced plans to spend $160 million on efforts to stem the growing number of Africans who enter the country illegally seeking jobs and political asylum. The money will go toward work on an Egyptian border fence that is already under construction, an expansion of detention centers and increased policing of companies that hire undocumented workers. “If need be, we will close businesses so that the enterprise known as the State of Israel does not close,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said after a cabinet meeting that focused on the issue. Over the past six years, about 50,000 Africans, mostly from Eritrea and Sudan, have trekked across the Sinai into Israel, some of them working in hotels and on construction sites, others living in rundown urban neighborhoods, unable to find work and relying on refugee agencies. All well-off countries face the challenge of how to handle poor foreign migrants and how much credence to give their accounts of political persecution. But the situation in Israel is complicated by Jewish history and has led to a national debate. On the one hand, this is a small country that wishes to maintain a strong Jewish majority. On the other, the Jews’ past of eviction and persecution makes some here argue that Israel should have special sensitivity for those fleeing prejudice and conflict. Mr. Netanyahu said that the overwhelming number of Africans who slip into Israel are not political refugees but are looking to improve their economic status. He said they pose difficulties for the people they settle among. Poorer Israelis, in particular, resent the Africans’ arrival and compete with them for jobs. “We hear the outcry coming from Israel’s cities,” he said. “We will continue to care for refugees, but they make up a minimal part of the human wave. Entire populations are starting to move, and if we don’t act to stop this we will be flooded.” Refugee advocacy groups in Israel contend that Mr. Netanyahu is wrong, that the majority of those who arrive here are fleeing civil wars or political persecution. Mr. Netanyahu plans to visit several African countries early next year and said he would raise the issue of repatriating the refugees. The influx of Africans began in 2005 after the Egyptian police attacked Sudanese refugees who were camped out in Cairo and demanded asylum. More than 20 people were killed, and word spread among the refugees that Israel would provide them a better welcome and more job opportunities. The Israeli government hopes that the fence being built along the Egyptian border will keep out most infiltrators. The demands for a fence have grown in the past year with the overthrow of President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt and the increase in tensions with Cairo that followed his ouster.

ETC. The first video below is an indescribable episode of the TV "reality" show of mostly unemployed actresses playing society ladies. Somewhat shocking at first glance. I'd never seen it (RHOBH) before but decided to watch a few more episodes online to see what sort of people they were. Kim, the former child actor is the most sympathetic; Adrienne, the Maloof woman is the most normal. The rest of 'em? Some memorable lines: "A garbage of rubies and diamonds." "Kyle is that girl in high school who made someone kill themselves."

Excerpt: While Kyle was feeling fortified, her sister Kim was, of course, feeling wrecked. Wrecked and ruined, sad and strange, wandering down Wilshire or Doheny, her head as always full of that curious buzzing. She saw a salon and decided to go in there, staring at the mirrors and running her hand along the chairs and counters until someone finally walked up to her tentatively and asked "Can, can I help you?" Kim looked up at him, snapped out of her haze. "Oh yes, I was just looking for some Christmas presents, Oh, no. No that's not right. I was just, I suppose I was, Oh this is silly of me. Do you ever have moments where you feel like, I don't know, like you've accidentally found some crack or something in time, and you've just sort of fallen into it? Like you're not really in the past or the present or anywhere, you're just sort of, " She trailed off. Smiled. "I would like you to teach me make up. That's what I would like." So the kind salon employee sat her in a chair and gave her a little lesson about how to color her eye lids and rouge her cheeks and Kim explained to us that she never had time to learn any of this when she was younger, because she was always working. Buying the family's house, buying them cars, doing her little child labor jig as fast as she could so the rest of her family could continue on as normal. It was hard now, to learn these things as a grownup, but at least she was trying. The make up man did one half of her face to show her how and then had her practice on the other half. And of course Kim put on too much, or did it wrong, and she was half neat and together and half sad, garish clown, gold-smeared and trembling and anxious, hoping this salon man, this stranger, would tell her that she looked lovely, that she'd done good, that she'd done something right for the first time in a long long while. Instead he got the makeup remover and said "The first time's always hard." http://gawker.com/5739794/the-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills-finale-my-sister-my-killer |

P.S. to the above post. Yeah, there's a black one of the series, but I don't get embarrassed when Oyinbos are making ass.es of themselves. The Atlanta "housewives" are a thousand times more disgraceful than these chicks. I refuse to watch it. |

Yes nau. "Jew pass Jew" o. Remember the Falashas from Ethiopia? Kilode, If you have time, watch the first video. Oyinbo chicks na headache o. You think Black women got drama. BTW, I'm trying to post more in Politics section, since that's how I started here on NL anyway. I wonder what/who derailed me from that. Hmmm. Politics will never be the same again. Hold on to your hat! Ah! And OAM4J is the mod too! Oh, this will be loads of fun. I see HBP and a resignation in the offing. I kid I jest. |
