Politics / Re: Bobrisky: Yorubas Have A Culture Of Spraying Naira - Reno Omokri by Nigeriakan: 12:41pm On Apr 08
Lovenorth:

And that music is better than our constitution?

Better than the constitution, YES, WAY BETTER. But it does not supercede the constitution. That's why anyone who sprays money, whether it's a Bobrisky or an Nkechi, should be arrested and prosecuted.

I just gave you the earlier submission to clear your doubt coz you felt there's no such cultural practice among the Yorùbá.

Because it is culture doesn't mean it can't be wrong sad

We once had a culture where Twins were killed
...until Mary Slessor came onboard.

And who were the 'we' that once had a culture of killing twins? You've been fed lies. Twins were sacred children in Yorùbá cultural practices. Twins' parents even had to make occasional feasts for the twins as the twins continued to grow. The feast is what is known as 'ẹ̀wà ìbejì' (twins bean feast). If they had been killed at birth, as you believed, would there be any need to make a feast for them later on?

Zonefree:
In your Yoruba culture, what is spraying money called? undecided

There's a Yorùbá phrase for money spraying, and it's 'owó níná'. Go listen to classic Yorùbá musicians such as Ayinla Omowura, Barrister, KSA, and Chief Obey, you'd hear lyrics about how so-and-so 'ná mi lówó' (sprayed me money) while singing the praise of the so-and-so.


This money spraying culture must have been borrowed from the Yorùbá practice of touching an Òrìṣà (deity) with money on the forehead during consultation.

Politics / Re: NPA Helpless As Warri Indigenes Kill Delta Ports With N4,000 Illegal Fees by Nigeriakan: 6:54pm On Apr 07
SensualMan:
It's perfectly in order. The indigenes gas to raise revenue for the communities.
The CORNmaster increased the price of petrol, LNG, electricity to raise revenue for his pocket so what these people are doing is in order to balance the equation.

The only people feeling the heat are the CORNtree people who stood on the mandate, they are gnashing their teeths in pain, screaming g Ebi n pawa every now and then.
Stupeed CORNtree people.

This was the same thing that sent oil companies away. Let them continue. When nobody uses the port again, they'll come to their senses.

they need to wake up and tackle hardship . insecurity . electricity and so many more challenges in Nigeria,
binance is not our problem now .

this government stupid eh. i wish i can just cast a spell on all of them to drop dead and die

The joke is actually on you, and it's rather unfortunate that you don't see it.

The Govt must have perceived that terrorists used the platform for funds transactions. The top 100 people need to be investigated. QED.

IF YOU'RE NOT HAPPY WITH THAT, RELOCATE TO NIGER REPUBLIC

Career / Re: Madam Orders Her Apprentices To Fan Her While Sewing (Video) by Nigeriakan: 7:00pm On Mar 16
What's wrong with this?

We used to go help our teachers with farm work and house chores when we were in secondary school. I used to help a lecturer of mine fetch water back in my undergraduate days.

I carried out a study on one traditional occupation of the Yorùbá and I had to enroll as an apprentice under the Ọ̀gá (Master). I needed to help her with some things that were not related to what I went there to learn. It's part of the learning.

Hypocrite! What then are you looking for in the SW again. If what you said was true, you'd have relocated to the fast-developing SE.

You make a post that bounces back on you. I'm sure, you'd not want to relocate to the fast-developing SE that's built on facts. You'd prefer to stay in the SW that's built on propaganda. You think everyone is out of intelligent thinking as you are.
Celebrities / Re: Speaking Yoruba Language Draining, Hurts My Nerves – Adunni Ade by Nigeriakan: 3:21pm On Mar 06
She was brought to the limelight by Yorùbá movies. I hope Yorùbá movies will stop giving her roles so she won't have to drain and hurt her nerves any longer.

I hope she knows her acting is more draining and hurting.

ElasmoBranchii:


They know what they stand to lose cause there is massive adoption of crypto in Nigeria but saying other African countries will follow suit in banning binance is ridiculous. Why would anyone want to follow a failed country.

You just stay back and watch. Is it not US's footstep that Nigeria just followed by suing Binance? Other African countries who see Binance as a threat to their economies may follow suit. It's not even rocket science.

marlow1962:

Bianance doesn't give a fucck about Nigeria, they already have lawsuits going on, a shit hole country slamming them with fine won't do shit.

But it cared enough to send its representatives to Nigeria. Dey there dey whine.

Binance knows what it stands to lose if it loses Africa's biggest market. If Binance is banned in Nigeria, many other African countries will follow suit in a matter of months.

FYI, Nigeria will work. And anyone who isn't happy about it won't witness it

Nword22:
Idiot this foolish old man think he is the real president..millions do not recognize him and we pray he fail so that his noise will be less.

Kiss the truth.

What point do you want to prove with his failure? You pray he fails so millions of Nigerians can suffer more or even die?

I've never seen a more evil person than you who want the failure of one man at the expense of millions of people.

I may not like Tinumbu, but I don't pray he fails, coz it has dire consequences on poor Nigerians.

FYI, anyone who wishes evil on this nation, anyone who hates the progress of this nation, no matter who they are, politicians in the ruling or opposition parties, citizens of whatever ethnic extraction, the Almighty God, Jehovah, Yahweh, Olódùmarè, Abasi, Chukwu, the Universe and all Metaphysical Forces will give the person something to really be sad about.

Nigeria will succeed. If you don't want it, you may just be wishing yourself a chance not to witness it.

[b][/b] In Yorubaland not Nigeria, that was how you guys over hyped Fashola he came to national level and performed poor, same way you guys over hyped Tinubu Nigeria is in total mess

Just mention one Governor who is doing smarter than Sanwo Olu. Anambra is about to go learn ICT from Lagos. Oyo was helped by Lagos during the Ibadan explosion. Lagos partners with food-producing states in the North for food production.

Name just one Governor who is at par with Sanwo Olu and state what things the Governor has done that wouldn't have been copied from the Lagos policies.

I believe if the president has the political will. It can be actualized. Do you?

It doesn't look like the President has the interest of the country at heart. These are good measures they can take to make the country great. Unfortunately, we lack leaders who truly love Nigeria. The good news is, these people won't be able to withstand the consequences of their actions and inactions
