Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE; Mad Cow Disease): You might have heard news reports about mad cow disease and wondered: What the heck is that? Mad cow disease is an illness also known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (say: bo-vine spun-jih-form en-seh-fah-la-puh-thee), or BSE for short.

It's called mad cow disease because it affects a cow's nervous system, causing a cow to act strangely and lose control of its ability to do normal things, such as walk. An infected cow would act "mad," which sometimes means mentally ill.

A cow with BSE develops these problems because it has developed an infection. This infection causes its brain to waste away and become spongy. Researchers are not completely sure how cows get this kind of infection, but they believe it comes from certain kinds of food given to cows. Some of this food contains the remains of dead cows that had the infection. These remains, especially the brains and spinal cords, may contain BSE.

Because BSE was a problem in the United Kingdom, the United States enacted rules to prevent live cows and some cow products from entering this country. The United States has had two cases of BSE in cows — one in 2003 and one in 2005. In both cases, the government took steps so that people wouldn't buy and eat the meat.

Northerners kill Abiola, kill Onagoruwa, Adisa and poison gani with cancer. Northerners seized our presidential turn and give to obasanjo just to punish yoruba. why should we yoruba support hausa one more time?. if you are yoruba trying na vote for northerner shame on you. Asiwaju will go to hell for joining Buhari. I respect him because we share the same faith but he dissapoint me with that Buhari politics.

Obviously, you have malu-brain as you proclaim, but it gets worse. Your brain is infected with BSE - that is the only reason for the kind of vomit coming from your fingers in your 6 or so few posts.

Although, you are a worthless jackass you might still be able to save yourself before it is too late. Here is some info to help you in this sorry emergency otherwise you will soon be culled

This is not a serious thread
You need to be able to differentiate serious from non-serious threads

So that you dont waste your time and energy replying to dimwits like the OP

The poster is on drugs!

Cow brain ? No comment,please.

@OP

It is either you have a “malu” brain as your handle name suggested or you ridiculously immune to Nigerian history. In my book, Yoruba are the same people as northerners.

~Bluetooth:

How are they related ?

Dede1:

They are related in more ways than one.

Dede1 is a revisionist Biafran historian. Most of his posts can be understood in that light. From his perspective, Yoruba/Hausa/Fulani are mostly the same.

Shut up, Yoruba and Fulani have nothing in common.

You could have scored unquantifiable political points if you had purged yourself of the symptoms of revisionist Biafran historian. I am a leaving eye witness to the Yoruba/Hausa/Fulani/Tiv/Ijo/Edo/Urhobo/Itsekiri/Kauri/Nupe/Bachama/Esan/Idoma/Gwari etc episode with Biafrans. Since such well thought-out unification, I have never regarded these people anything other than northerners.

@malu-brain,
u are a very creative person and one thing that confirmed that is when u said that the northerners gave obasanjo to punish yoruba. pls add or understand that you are a more punishment to the yorubas and to nigeria as a whole.
if voting jonathan by force?
there is power in names. as long as you remain malu brain, there is no way you can act like those with human brain.

@jason12345: He is correct in that those groups did participate on the Nigerian side against Biafra (though the core North and Middle Belt was a majority of the army.)

But this is not the whole story itself. I highly recommend buying that book or some other neutral account of the war. Or getting it from your library. Part of me believed that Nigeria did starve Biafra. I also used to believe it was an Igbo plot. Even the march into the Midwest was basically a high-risk, high-reward gamble by a desperate Ojukwu. It wasn't necessarily malevolence or evil by the Biafran leadership, it was mostly just simple incompetence.

Anyway, read the book (or some other neutral account.) I wish it were freely available online so everyone could have a copy and know the history

DapoBear:

You seem to have misread. By "neutrality", I meant a source neither Nigerian or Biafran. There were many eyes which saw the war who did not belong to either group, and thus might be considered neutral. Including the author of the book I mentioned.

another Fulani hooligan on rampage. You think I dont know that Fulani poisoned Gani with cancer?
