KanwuliaExtra, sis I cannot belive you thought he was innocent.

If he wants to avenge his sisters sexual abuse, why is he raping a woman?

Oyinbos don't have problem at all.

In Norway you need boot with extra hill. Cold dey penetrate inside our normal shoe for here. I nearly froze if not for regular whiskey I take. I hardly stay outside more than 30mins upon all the sweater I wear.

If were wearing the right thermal wear, you wouldn't need to wear many layers.

I don't know why ppl don't do their research before travelling some where.

plaindealer:
You mean school kids don't wear uniforms in Nigeria bah?


If you are going to criticize, at least do so with reasonable and legitimate views.

It's actually better than Blood and Water from top to bottom.

Their are a million School and similar TV shows all over the world so did they all copied blood and water.

Some of you just criticize without rational thoughts.

Did I say they don't wear school uniform at all?

Why are you twisting what I said??

I asked, "why are the school kids dressed like that"?
Is that how Nigerian school kids uniform look like? Are the girls also allowed to have extensions with unnatural colours?


Just looking at the poster and going on to look at the trailer, I can already tell the they're trying to portray Nigerians as something they are not. Hollywood/western wannabes

Justmesagi:
Did I ever claim it's not? I said it's dominated by Yoruba. How's this a problem?

Saying it's "dominated by yoruba" implies it's typically or meant to be dominated by something else instead.

But...we have been told that this is the face of Nigeria. Please don't say more - you may offend some people.

Sorry no, that's a joke lol

And I was looking forward to learning something

plaindealer:
Here..

I'm turned off already lol

Why are the school kids dressed like that? This doesn't look quintessentially Nigerian

Where is the plot based?

Looks like a blood & water replica

plaindealer:
I've been advising non Yoruba people to learn Yoruba language because it's fast becoming the standard language of not only communication and social interaction, but entertainer, culture, literature and social currency.

I'm Nigeria at the moment, if you don't put out Yoruba song or movie or at least add a few Yoruba words and phrases, you can not crossover with a few exceptions.

Don jazzy and his Marvin people saw the trend and quickly jumped on the bandwagon with their latest all-star hit song WonDa Mo.

Yoruba is now the face of Nigeria and even Nigerian music and movie, they are the face of Afro Beats.

The new Nigerian series on Netflix was produced with special preference and addition of Yoruba language and main characters, it's not by accident, Yoruba language and culture are the dominant identification and point of reference when projecting Nigeria to the outside world.


If you don't speak or understand Yoruba language, learn it for your own good, it's the future of Nigeria or after Nigeria.

What's the name of the series please?

tollyboy5:
The yoruba varient spoken in Lagos is what became the standard.
It came from different Yoruba tribe mixing together.

No one acheive anything we're all just speculating.

There aren't alot of ondo-ekiti axis yorubas like Teni in the music industry to represent.

Tiwa Savage sef is Tokunko

Fujiyama:

Very odd way to put it.

Yoruba is spoken in small pockets of the Caribbean, South and Central America, yes. But it is spoken mostly by the descendants of former slaves (people who are still fighting a liberation war of sorts as we speak) and Ifa/YTR devotees. Instead of crowing about internationalization, devote your energy towards assisting the Yoruba speaking underclass in Brasil, Cuba etc. That would be a more worthy endeavour.

It's relegated to a liturgical language, I wouldn't say it's widely spoken.

Do they respect Nigerian culture?

Chee59:
You're entitled to your opinion. And so am I.

Your point was a false equivalence. It's not an opinion, it's the truth.

faceLAGOS:
The reason the guy wouldn’t or couldn’t help the starving child was because of protocol which was that that foreigners were not advised to have physical contact with the locals due to disease or something.

Sometimes, I wonder why legality should override morality in any circumstances.

After all, we are first moral agents.

This sounds like BS

Lannister360:
You women keep trying to compare yourself with a man, you forget that the man is responsible for incurring the cost of the marriage which in this current day economy, runs into millions.

He is the one sponsoring the marriage, and after then, he will feed and cloth and shelter you for the rest of your life, while you stay at home watching telemundo and African magic. A man chooses, not you, a man who patronise olosho has the right to marry a decent girl.

On the other hand, you women are going to be fed and clothed and sheltered for the rest of your life for doing NOTHING. The least you can do is to come into the marriage with your Virginity and dignity intact. We are the ones buying women, no one wants to buy an over used cloth when he can get a brand new tear rubber cloth for the same amount

How many men in Nigeria are actually doing this?

What is the percentage of middle-class to wealthy Nigerian men again?

You're saying what you think men should be doing, not what actually happens in reality.

Absolutely not the same sis.

The equivalent would be a woman dumping her man for being an ex or current jigolo.

Ecne:
You don't know that level of madness.
I'm a younger Brother to a very loving elder Sister.
You touch my Sister, you price a casket.
No cap.

CheapHomes1:
is it because of your 69 IQ that you cant answer the questions?. you are fast and you cant answer simple questions? who is now senseless? if you stay in london, so fvcking what? what is the relevance of your staying in london to what i said? should i fry water because you stay in london?

You can't make sense to the senseless.
I've answered your question 3 times but your IQ won't let you be great.

My last response to you.

thesicilian:
I get your point, though your chosen example doesn't do you much justice.

Russia in this context represents the Russian army, of which anyone can boldly say yes, all the army did invade Ukraine.
Just like in football Russia will represent the Russian National Team

So Russia is very much different from Russians, depending on the context.

When talking about behaviour of a group in particular, it is always safer not to generalize, except the group was selected based on that particular behavioural trait being discussed.

So you're saying no army dey Russia again?

Think of what you're saying

What about when people say Americans voted Biden? Did all Americans vote Biden?

CheapHomes1:
you havent answered my questions. you are fast and you cant answer simple questions? who is now senseless? if you stay in london, so fvcking what? what is the relevance of your staying in london to what i said? should i fry water because you stay in london?

You've got some audacity to insist I answer your questions when you never answered the 1st question i threw your way.

I blame the 69 IQ.

Kishanna Sands

Kanwulia, did you see the thread on the convicted rapist that came on NL to manipulate Nigerians into thinking he was innocent??

The most dramatic thread I've ever seen!!

CheapHomes1:

What made you so sure I didn't attend Asake's concert? What was the reasoning behind your comment?
