Nairaland Forum

Ptolomeus: As you know, I'm Uruguay (South America).
I was in Europe (Alicante, Spain), waiting for a bus along with two African women dressed in their beautiful costumes.
They probably went to a party.
When we ascended (I let them ascend before), I heard a lot of laughter from the passengers. As I sat down (against African women), I understood that a Spanish was humiliating the women, ridiculing their dress and their origin ...
Although I was accompanied by a couple of friends, I was running to the offender's place ... screaming, I asked him if he could not remember when the Spanish traveled to South America to escape hunger? Fleeing war ... full of lice ... I reminded him that my small country gave them food, medicine, work ... a home to live in peace ...
There was a stir in the bus ... my friends reminded me that I was a foreigner, and you could have problems ....

But all were silent bus passengers. Nobody was offended by what I said ... offender and the clown looked down and stopped talking nonsense ...
When I returned to my place, both women smiled at me ... until today, I do not know if they could speak Spanish, if they understood exactly what happened ... But I'm sure they knew that what happened was related to them ...
Brothers ... we should not be passive with racists ...
Lower our eyes to a racist act is complicity!
A hug to my dear brothers Forum!

Cosign 100%, I applaud you for what you did when you defended the women, we need more people like you

I don't see any big difference between her before and after picture but I see a slight difference in her nose and she looks like a picture in her after picture, a doll, a plastic. She is not helping herself in her career

PAGAN 9JA:
someone must be really color-blind to not distinguish between "brown" and "black".

I understand what you are saying Pagan, I am not the color black, like the crayon color black but I am just saying the reality of the world when it comes to racial labels. To me I dont even know how it started with the term red people, white people, and black people but in the world we live in today the labels are the norm

Tolaaaaannni:

Yes, but unlike the word caucasian, negro/negroid has had years and years of painful history behind it.

True

Tolaaaaannni:

The word "Nigger" derives from negro which also derives from negroid, You might not see anything wrong with it but i personally don't want to be called by that.

True but I felt since they use caucasian to describe white, it is ok with the term negroid, don't get me wrong I never ask people to call me negroid either but I always thought the term itself was nuetral.

PAGAN 9JA:


Technically, i dont care what those oyinbos say. there are dark skinned Indians, dark skinned Australian aborigines, New Zealand Maoris, Melanesians of Papua New Guinea and the Islands, dark-skinned Phillipino tribespople, dark-skinned Arab bedu, etc. skin colour harldy matters because it can change when given time and conditions. Only Tribe/Ethnicity matters!

You have a point when it comes to Africans but sing that tune to Black South Africans or Zimbabweans and they will say differently. I am proud of being Nigerian and yoruba but I am also proud of my skin color as well.

PAGAN 9JA:


I am first Hausa, because that is what my people were since time immortal. i am then Nigerian, due to todays political turn of events.

understood, lets just thank God Nigeria is not Latin America

Tolaaaaannni:

I don't like that word negroid, it has a lot of negative connotation behind it. I will stick to being called by my nationality/ethincity. Nigerian/Yoruba.

@op Very interesting story.

I thought nigg-er is the negative word not negroid or black, any way I didn't know. I prefer to associate with Nigerian/Yoruba first but I never knew negroid had bad connotations to it, hmmm

PAGAN 9JA:


no we are not black! that term was coined by whites, especially americans (who believe that theire are only 3 races: whites, blacks and asians). we Africans are tribespeoples. maybe akatas are black but not us. I am not black.

Technically we are negroid, and in the western world they labelled it black, so it has become the samething. It is true Africans label themselves more with their tribe followed by their nationality but in the western world nationality doesn't mean race because their are many races in the western world, particularly New World countries like America, and since people are identified by race in these countries that is how they label old world continents, for example Europe is labeled white territory, while Africa is labeled black territory. To be honest I don't know how these racial terms started but when it comes to African americans well that is how they label themselves, as opposed to Africans that label themselves by tribe or nationality but that doesn't mean we are not negroid to.

The best term is negroid, not black

Black Kenichi: A silly little hungry Somali talking about how bad @ss Somalia is. What a joke. You haven't kicked out the "Bantu" AU soldiers out of Mogadishu.
In fact Mogadishu is at it's most peaceful and stable point sine this whole Somalia civil war fiasco. You can thank the "Bantu" for that.

Clean up you s***hole of a country and feed your people. Only then will other Africans take you seriously.

lol, you took the words out of mouth, the Op is an i-diot

Adufaye: hmmmmmmmmmmm we are talkin abt country wit d largest black mean lol

yeah and I answered the question, Nigeria is a black nation, and the only nation in the top ten list and they make up the country with the largest black population, Ghana is only 25 million in population.

"Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa, the seventh most populous country in the world, and the most populous country in the world in which the majority of the population is black"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigeria

Which Is the Most Populous Nation In Africa?

"One of the greatest and most wonderful thing to do in one’s lifetime is to visit the most populous black nation on earth: Nigeria."

" Brazil has the second largest black population — black being defined by people of African descent in the way that we would define them in this country. It’s second only to Nigeria."

Nice story but I don't understand what point you are trying to get from this thread; there have been Foriegn women like her(mostly european) married to Nigerian men(small numbers), that have been in Nigeria decades ago, Singer Nneka & Ruff & Tumble CEO Adenike Ogunlesi for example has the same background as her kids. There is nothing new with this story.

PAGAN 9JA:


@crystal

dont insult us. we are not rascists like you that we cal our Nation a "black Nation". Our nation has people of many hues and colours. Myself, i am Dark Brown.
There are ehtnic Touareg in our country who are light brown skinned. We are all brown coloured and it doesnt really matter to us so shut your rascist mentality!

Our country is a Green/Brown Nation with lots of forests and pasrues and deserts and grasslands with blue waters and clear skies.

Pagan, Nigeria is a black nation, and the country with the largest black population in the world; true their are different shades of Nigerians, light skinned, brown skinned, and dark skinned but they are still black.

chomlee1: Genny all da way!

oh ok, do you have another 9 in your list.

post your own list

trendystuf: National Enquirer magazine has reported that though Rich Oganiru`s name might not really ring a bell again but he`s one of Nollywood`s very good actors and stakeholders. In fact, he prides himself as one of the pioneering members of the Actors Guild of Nigeria and has starred in over 300 movies.

Please look at his pictures again if you`re still in doubt because he`s presently battling a murder scandal for his alleged involvement in the complicity leading to the death of a very rich Abuja based multimillionaire businesswoman believed to be his wife.

The deceased, National Enquirer gathered reliably is not his first wife, the first wife also died mysteriously years back and he was in a very poor state of life before he met the Abuja based multimillionaire who transformed his life in a matter of months.


Rich Oganiru, according to those who know him, loves money and attention almost to a fault, aside that, he also likes blowing his own trumpet as he always praises himself, “I have starred in over 300 movies, I am the Corporate Marketing Consultant to the Abuja Chapter of AGN, a high flying Evangelist called to lead the skilled and unskilled gifted in art to realize their God`s given potentials in the Kingdom. I am the General Overseer of Davidical Order Ministry, we discover, develop, expose, empower and evangelize musicians, actors, and artistes to be relevant in their different churches- a non-denominational outreach for the entertainment industry”, his self-appraisal on Facebook page.

The Owerri born actor is, as you read this, swimming in a murder scandal that might have him behind bars for the rest of his life except for divine intervention. Mr. Rich, according to our own findings has featured in movies such as

Queen of Hasso Rock, Wasted Effort, Pay Day, Lacrima, Stoneface in Love, Givers Never Lack, His Majesty, Yellow Fe Rich Odichinma Azu ver, My Destiny, Battle Of The Rich, Political Control, Touching Love, Total Control, Last Confession as well as many others.

This office can exclusively disclose that the actor is presently at the homicide section of the force headquarters, Abuja where he’s being held for killing his wife, a top business woman in Abuja.

Tracing the genesis of their liaison, we gathered that the deceased met Rich Oganiru who already lost his wife and mother of his two boys at a time he was facing financially challenges and could hardly afford daily meal. Rich, our source explained was able to win the pretty woman’s heart after sweet tonguing her especially because he’s a known face who’s featured in several movies.

This, we further gathered was how the woman in a short while brought back smile to the face of the light skinned actor to the extent that, he became financially buoyant and had even started cruising one of her cars. The relationship as expected blossomed into marriage within a short period and the actor we learnt even had a traditional wedding with his supposed God sent wife. The union, we learnt however took a new dimension when Rich began to complain of his wife’s inability to get pregnant.

Meanwhile, the woman had, by this time handed over the documents of her landed properties as well as making him part of the signatories in her firm. The affair, we reliably learnt took another twist as the graduate of music, Rich started seeing a younger lover, Iyake, a calabar born undergraduate of Nassarawa State Polytechnic whose mother owns a shop in Abuja.

“He`s always hibernating everyday for hours with a young girl whose mother owns a shop at the popular area known as Food Court built by El Rufai where there are banks, it is so shameful for a man like that doting on a young girl,” the source disclosed.

While doting on a young girl outside, the actor, who the source revealed is also an ex Naval officer kept mounting pressure on his wife to get pregnant shunning the fact that the business woman was suffering from Fibroid. This, we gathered might not be far from the reason the woman had to take the decision to get the fibroid removed by all means.

Quoting the source “It was Rich’s unnecessary pressure on the lady that made her resulted into having a fibroid operation in a private hospital in Abuja which she luckily survived but only recuperating at the hospital before she was allegedly poisoned”.

The woman we were told, however met her untimely death few days after the surgery when her husband was said to have visited the hospital and allegedly gave her a pill without the doctor`s consent claiming that it would aid her speedy recovery, not knowing that it was poison.

The whole thing started looking suspicious when Rich who had sold some of his wife’s landed property for a church member for N2.5m requested for her death certificate. The actor we gathered claimed that he urgently needed the certificate to sort out some personal issues instead of informing the wife’s family or at least show a remorse for the irreparable loss.

In addition, the church member who bought the land, according to our source also smelled fowl play because Rich refused to have his wife’s signature on the land receipt neither did he even inform any of her family member claiming that he’s the husband and has the right to sell her land. This, we learnt informed the church member’s interest to investigate the actual cause of Rich’s wife death.

“This was how the man reported the whole land story as well as the woman’s death to her family and it was what made them involved the police before the doctor and Rich were arrested” the source revealed.

The doctor, knowing that his hands were clean, therefore suggested an autopsy which shockingly revealed a poisonous pill in the woman’s system. The said poison we gathered was ingested between the time her husband visited the night before she died.

The nurses were also said to have saw her sleeping few minutes after Rich left not knowing that she was dead in her sleep. The actor, our source added later confessed killing his wife after much torture in police cell without any cogent reason. We also learnt that Rich is still in the police custody in Abuja while remains of his wife have been deposited in the mortuary, we shall however bring you unfolding details as events unfold.

wow was all that he did worth it in the end, now he needs to get ready for jail

interesting, good for him

You missed my point. I know a gun is a much better weapon.

But when I mean deadly... I mean this..

These guys were decapitated by the Mexican cartels using machetes... That is why I say the machete is more deadly/violent. That's why I said it would take a nut to hack someone to death. Would you rather be shot in the head or hacked to death?

OMG
