By October, you won't even be able to get accommodation unless you know someone who has a place. You want to learn history with bonitas!!!!!!!!!!! No, no no - as a Wande Abimbola you will only be restricted to the historical/spiritual areas such as model market, Pelurinho, etc |

ndu_chucks: Alhaji Ndubuisi Chukwuma, I'm not sure why an Idol, icon, a representation of an idea or ideal is abominable. I'll rather tell you why Ifa will heal the world. It does not consider your religion abominable, it will rather edify and teach you than label you hell bound. It has little time for violent proselytizing It cares more about the ideals of Orunmila, probably more than it cares about Orunmila himself. Want more? |

I think Yoruba people somehow have managed to stay above religious beef as we have it with some other tribes. Whether or not Fashola is a muslim or not isn't important. What is is that the average Yoruba doesn't care. When we vote, we don't vote based on religion. Another thing is that most Yoruba muslim families have lots of xtian family members and vice versa. Fasholas wife is Xtian. This is the kind of tolerance that is present in Yorubaland. I guess another important fact is that nobody seeks to convert anybody to any religion. If your a muslim or Xtian, its eida cause dats d way it is in your family or you chose one of both @ some point in your life. Religion is basically looked @ from a family to family angle and not from a community or tribal aspect of things. This doesn't mean Yorubas are more superior than any other tribes, but that's just the way we are. Tolerant people. |

Kilode?!: I'm all ears. Please tell me what Ifa is and how it will heal the world. I've always though it was the religion of uncivilized folks who are ignorant about modern day affairs. I'm ready to be educated (I assume you are not ignorant about this Ida), so please proceed. P.S. Do not make any assumptions about my religion if I am yet to tell you what that religion is - my religion should irrelevant in the education you are going to provide. The video below shows uncivilized folks practicing this Ifa. I await the day when you practitioners will use your babalawo to topple governments and remove corrupt officials. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=k9lGVF6jYN4 [flash=300,300]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=k9lGVF6jYN4[/flash] |

most igbos are too myhopic hence their bigoted approach to every issue. Sorry the yorubas got it right, rather than being jealous how about u guys learn from them. In any case igbos are the most dis united people in Nigeria, an igbo man will gladly dupe another igbo man . Why blame every one else for your woes? Like i always say dont blame yoruba or hausa for you backwardness , you guys NEVER stand for any just course. Please yorubas are very united because they a very educated and exposed, they know religion is purely btw u and ur God rather than d other guys who prefer to make political profits wit religion. GOODLUCK TO U GUYS, |

Yes, I give it to the Yoruba people. they are first Yoruba before religious affillations. I think its a result of education, and the ability to think above average. Fashola and his Christian wife are always present at The Experience Lagos. In fact, he would stay throughout the event, and the camera will capture him several times. That cant happen in the North. The northern muslim leader would rather appoint someone to go represent him. Thats besides the fact that he would force his wife to change her faith, even if she doesnt believe in it. |

[size=16pt]NL and Igbophobia. This is getting out of hand. There are over 200 tribes in Nigeria but yet discussions on Igbo is always the headline. Igbos are really great I must say. I hail una. But please can someone explain to me why all the candidates supported by the Yorubas (with all due respect to this great tribe) have lost in their elections since 1999. I remember a man came on channels prior to the election and was shouting, Yorubas are very sophisticated and advanced in politics and they would vote out PDP. But they ended up either loosing to PDP or betraying their ACN candidate in person of Ribadu.[/size] |

ndu_chucks: Alhaji ti ko re Mecca Oh I did not mention your religion, I just gave you a pilgrims title due to your use of Arabic phrases, nothing wrong with that or is there? I'm not an expert, I'm a learner and a searcher. follow the link below and buy Wande Abimbola's book "Ifa Will Mend Our Broken World". I'll also recommend: "Orisa Devotion as World Religion" Both books were written by authorities, in this case I'll defer to them, read, then we can discuss. I'll like to add that it's strange to call, Wole Soyinka, Wande Abimbola and the amazingly erudite Oluopona of Havard uncivilized (he edited the second book) but you are entitled to your opinion. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0965973905 Nothing wrong with uncivilized it's not really a bad thing in my view, it's a state of being, not very easy to define objectively too, I bet the man with the opele can philosophize and teach you a thing or too about life, maybe impart some life changing wisdom too. Anyway, grab the books. As per toppling governments, leave that to warriors, there are enough of them around. Ifa nor be politics. |

naja2: [size=14pt]My brother, Nigerians in general including you are educated illiterates. A statistic given 50yrs ago is quoted to represent today's figures. I remember many years back Nigeria was rated the happiest people, yet you see the so called elites of Nigeria quoting this over expired data to reflect present situation. Now getting back to of rate education, I quote you my brother " Please yorubas are very united because they a very educated and exposed,[/i], and also that [i]Ekiti is the most educationally developed state in Nigeria. I would rather refer you to BBC. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-16510922 when you have real and true data, then you realize perhaps you were once first but now things have changed. But being blind folded by old records, makes you stagnant while your opponent grows faster. Wake up people. This is directed to ALL tribes----- tnx[/size] |

Yorubas and Igbos are actually very dumb - excuse my insult but that's the way they behave. Here we are in the midst of serious problems and you are here splitting hairs - what a dumb poster. What is the way forward? No wonder the killings in the north would continue when the Southerners are behaving like babies. |
| Re: Yoruba Christians, Yoruba Muslims. . . .what Is That? by nduchucks: 4:57pm On Jan 21, 2012 |
@Kilode!, your words: "I'll rather tell you why Ifa will heal the world. " I am still waiting for you to do this. Why the sudden passing of the buck and directing me to read various books? If you can't deliver of 'promises' stop making them, abi Ifa has told you to chicken out ni? |

naja2: Typical Yoruba man very dumb,stupid and etnicentric, what has igbos got to do with your useless thread, imagine a yorubamantelling igbos that they are not united, you yorubas are the most disunited group in Nigeria, your leaders have robbed and scammed you so much that yorubaland now have over 60 percent poverty next to the north, almajiro is now common in yorubaland , confused bunch of people ,tell me where in history of Nigeria where yorubas where united? Not even during the civil war neither now the igbos are speaking with one voice while you people keep clowning about and talking from both sides of the mouth. Demons, the only difference between you and the hausas is that you are cowards. |

The Igbo people have had heavily fragmented and politically independent communities.[29] Before knowledge of Europeans and full exposure to other neighbouring ethnic groups, the Igbo did not have a strong identity as one people. |

this topic is supposed to be restricted to yoruba xtians &muslim interaction pattern but inferiority complex &abusive nature of d yoruba poster & his tribesmen in NL has made them drag d ibo's into it.And u dont kip mentioning d killings in d north as if it's only d ibo's that r casualties,many yoruba people live up their too.Yes we may neva v a muslim governor in ibo land because we are 99.5% christians here so that's it and we practise intermarriage more than any tribe in nigeria, turn all dis hatred to lov |

genxris: Yorubas don't care about their people you should have known that by now, they have been fighting wars among themselves before and after colonisation by Britain, no matter how many yorubas that die in the north they will never talk about it cause they don't want to upset the hausa-fulanis |

ndu_chucks: Alhaji, I already gave a summarized reason of why I believe Ifa can and will heal the world, it immediately followed the same quote you copied, it was even itemized. Now, I know you want me to expound on that, but I'll rather you read those books so we can have a proper discussion. There is nothing wrong with passing the buck to experts and elders who actually know more than you. So I'm proud to pass the buck to them. my offer to discuss further after your readings still stands, let me know when you are done. |
