Edo people are not Lazy, they are hardworking and excel anywhere they find themselves.

Especially in Italy .

Go start Jamb coaching in your room.
Personally handle the subjects covered in your course.
Let your prospective students know you have a 1st class.
They will beat a path to your place.

Don't advise this guy he is a sitting duck, 12 years waiting for somebody to employ him, if he eventually get the job and his employer sack him for one reason or the other, will he go into another 12 years sabbatical or hibernation?.

Montaque:
Why won't it be so?
When our nomadic president visits London, France and UAE over slight medical concern. While our hospitals become ruinous because of hypocrisy in the elites.
I have since then lost faith in the rumored ban on oversea medical tourism by this FG.

You mean in the last 16 years?.

tuniski:
Those who voted even if he presented NEPA bill will still vote baba/apc cos na emotional followers. However, those who gave the marginal votes that tilted victory are thinking otherwise based on empirical facts on the ground.
For those drunk on #gates While hardship pervades the nation, they will still hang on that to rationalized their choice.
However, it is remains a reasoned better choice to have a joke as leader than a tyrant Especially one that is so dogmatic to see superior arguments on economic matters, for which he is brainless!

An election today, APC will lose! QED

@ Bolded, never again in this country will i sacrifice quality for sentiment, baba all the way.

PMB all the way.

jerseyboy:
Now let us do some serious thinking. So Oduduwa fell out from the sky? And you believe that over the Bini version of a prince of the Ogiso (Gods of the sky) dynasty escaped persecution and wandered into Ife a small settlement and was proclaimed King because of his prowess. Which story do you think is more plausible?

His name is Odua Atewonro, A TE IWON RO means someone who came down from the sky through chain, he did not fell from the sky .
Most of these information are hidden in Yoruba oral poetry, get an Ifa worshiper to recite these poetry and bring out whatever information you are looking for out of it.

[quote authora=pamcode post=42789498]Olowu should have been the first been the first born of okanbi but owu has lost it supremacy a long time ago[/quote]Olowu is a grandchild, his mother was a daughter of Oduduwa, Olowu was a baby king who later on became a trouble maker i guess his mother's relatives became tired of his over bearing attitude and decided to remind him of who he is.

9jacrip:
What the Bini hinge their argument on is simply the rendition of names.

We need to remind them that names such as Oduduwa and Oranmiyan were nicknames and not actual names.

Oduduwa is a fusion of Odu to da Iwa. The vessel that brought creation/existence. The 'oduduwa' ife king, got called the name because he was the vessel through which Ife confederacy was ended.

Oduduwa is in no way Izoduwa or whatever con you folks come up with. The actual Oduduwa was in Ife's creation history and the name was extended to the human king who ushered in a new era of political unification in Ife.

I'm sure the Bini believe Oranmiyan which they changed to 'Omonayan' was his actual name rather than Odede which as the actual name.

Please and please, Bini folks need to do a proper research of Yoruba words before twisting it to fit into their poor revisionism.

I read somewhere that Ekhalederhen stopped over at Owo? Owo didn't even come into existence until after Oduduwa's period as king in Ife.

Thank you God bless you, ORANMIYAN means ORAN " matter " MI " my " YAN an abreviation of YANJU " settled ".
ORANMIYAN means " my matters or issues are settled another way of saying " i am blessed or i have succeed or i have overcome "

clefstone:
No yoruba monarchy can match the history of the Benin monarchy. The facts are there

Yeye dey smell the Obas of Benin even have burial ground in Ile Ife, so how can Benin kings be superior to the other Yoruba kings or don't you think it should have been the other way round.

EternalTruths:
Tinubu back stabbed SS/SE candidate Jonathan

Back stabbed? show me the agreement paper or shut up, co operation no be by force.

Op like i said,blood is sticker than water.they re still present in your generation.e dey dem blood na.

A[b] blackstabber [/b]is a person who doesnt know that an agreement is an agreement o..

Forever remain loyal..

Jonathan is a case study.

You mean just as Yoruba had an unwritten agreement with Ojukwu, Yoruba also had an unwritten agreement with Goodluck and now refused to honor the agreement?.
When will you guys wake up and stop having nightmare about an imaginary enemy? Yoruba and Igbo can never have any kind of agreement verbally not to talk of written, we are two different kinds of people with different mindset haba!
Why are you guys always thinking that your ideas are the best and so must be forced down other people's throats?, despite the fact that Yorubas have capacity to think and help themselves must you force them to think like you?, you can't love me more than myself na by force? ABEG BUZZ OFF JOR.

davidmark4naija:
Why are we not seeing pictures of his necklace, shoe and bathing soup?

What is there to see? i was on an excusion to owena river way back, we saw old women checking something inside massive sand that some men were bringing out of a river in their canoe, i never knew they were searching for gold.
So you have not heard of local black soap which are made from palm trees? or the beads that are made from a particular kind of stones? na over Americanisation dey kill us o, we too like foreign things.

LegalAnalyst:
Rickey Tarfa(SAN) must have being a very nice lawyer among his colleague for Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN) to have led about 32 SANs legal team on his behalf. Given the egocentric charater of some lawyers, It is very rare to hear a number of SANs coming out en masse for one of their own especially on a matter of serious allegation of offence. I recalled only few junior and senior lawyer led protest when chief Mike Ohzekhome(SAN) was kidnpped


#NaijaLegalAnalyst

If they like let them carry all the SANS in Nigerian join the ones in the whole of Africa, join their Europeans and American counterparts and keep their Asian counterparts as reserves, in their desperate bid to hold the people of this country down in shackles of poverty through corruption, THEY WILL STILL FAIL. , dey laugh o, it is no longer business as usual.

What about the oil in Ondo, is that one Ondo property too?.

So na only Nigeria oil dey sell cheaply .

Ask OBJ, anyway google is your friend.

Imagine governors and directors in central banks are the owners of bureau de change, i now understand why there is so much hue and cry over dollars since PMB took over, the problem with this country is PURE UNADULTERATED GREED.

ajayi01ibrahim:
shey more than $14million recovered from unpaid oil royalties frm a single firm,and return of over #300million naira from This Day newspaper boss na beans abi
[color=#990099] I say receive sense[/color].it seems you need Gbogbonishe

Most of them actually needs to be flogged by local psychiatrist, because they need more than deliverance.

Rikidony:
PATHETIC.

THATS WHAT PDP 16 YEARS RULE HAVE TURN NIGERIA INTO.

WITH BABA HOPE STILL DEY


OIL PRICE UNDER PDP'S RULE

THIS IS WHY I BELIEVE THAT ANYONE WHO STILL SUPPORT PDP AFTER 16 YEARS OF MISRULE IS EITHER MAD OR THE PERSON IS AN AGENT OF THE DEVIL.

Godjone:
you are on point. APC seems clueless at the moment

I would rather have a clueless APC than an over sabi party of crooks and criminals.

IkennaNweke:
I rolled on my bed this last night and I wondered how what we YORUBAS condemned, fought and criticised under Obasanjo, Yar'Adua and Jonathan all suddenly became permissible under Buhari! It baffles me that what we have always stood for is being lost by some of us. Let me take some of these:

1. I am shocked that an educated Yoruba man could stand up and say the constitution can be subverted under a democratic government simply because we want to fight corruption.

2. I am shocked that we can say let us put aside the rule of law and operate by the rule of the thumb simply because a government has whipped up so much emotions in us to believe that those who stole should even be executed without trial.

3. It is shocking to me that what we denigrated Obasanjo for (disobedience of court orders, high-handedness, intimidation, mis-use of public institutions to harass opponents) are same things we are justifying on the expediency of "cleaning the mess created by PDP".

4. We have always been in opposition and principled critics of anti-democratic practices but I am shocked that all what our leaders have always criticised and fought against are being justified by us because a 'saint' has become president through us.

5. I never knew a Yorubaman like me could ever see corruption SOLELY on the prism of who is involved, what he used the money allegedly stolen for and the political party he belongs to. I never knew my Yoruba compatriot could see visible proof of corruption and say "no court has convicted him" but supports dropping rule of law to punish another person accused of SAME offence!

6. I am shocked that Yoruba man could justify something in Lagos but condemn it in Ekiti. Defend impunity in Abuja but criticise it in Port-Harcourt!

7. I never knew my people could see anyone who criticises a sitting government as being paid, supporting corruption and supporting a particular party but see those who support it as being the 'only' patriots.

8. At what time did we start condemning evil based only on who is involved and where he belongs to rather than the evil itself?

9. I am shocked that none of our leaders is even coughing about STATE POLICE and TRUE/FISCAL FEDERALISM again. No one is talking of lopsided revenue sharing formula again! Yet, these are issues we have been fighting successive governments over in the last FORTY years! But none of those who made it their daily songs is mentioning it again!

The Buhari presidency has shown clearly that may be, we are a the tribe of double standards. It is shameful!

Samuel Ajayi.

Samuel Ajayi Crowther?, eyaa sorry, i never knew your condition is this crítical or how else can i understand this poo you posted here.

turnup05:
God bless you Op. The Yoruba youth need to wake up and help each other to become giants in their various fields. You see many Yoruba youths not giving or training each other secrets of their success, but rather they can only take their friends clubbing or to drink beer. You will hardly see a successful Yoruba man tell their hard working Yoruba friends the secret of business so they can succeed rather they can help other...Am not talking of Jobs or yahoo plus but legit business because that's where other tribes cooperate only with their tribes men to win over other foreign lands.
It is not only by speaking the language that we should know we are Yoruba.

You mean like someone conducting a research into a money spinning business and handing the result over to some lay backs in the name of Yoruba unity.
Why not pay some token for training or must everything be free? there is no more free lunch even in America, so quit the chicanery.

You guys are just dump.....do you guys mean to say no yoruba man can write an honest article about his people?

[size=14pt]Those are chiefs. You these igbo people what you dont know ask. Your ignorance is actually putrid and only attracts insults to your tribe, both the good and foolish ones. Very hard to respect/regard you these days[/size]

Nice flagella koboko, please keep this and continue to use it anytime a situation like this arise, kudos.

eodavids:
Well I do not know if any one is thinking what iam thinking?

I still believe that if GEJ's kind of economic team are to handle Nigerian economy even today, the citizens would be made to find solace without feeling all the economic shock that are now prevalent.

All the same I call on Nigerians to support PMB and his team. At the end of this political mile, we will know how far and how well.
#supportPMBpolicies!

@ Bolded, never in your life play with such fire, IF NOT GOD we will be begging Oyinbo to come and recolonize us all over again at this moment.
Thank God for the change of government, this is precisely what happened between 1984 - 1990 and this is what led to brain drain that hit this country.
The first gulf war was our saving grace, the second gulf war was another opportunity presented to Nigeria on a platter of gold to make money and invest in our future but we still threw it away, I SAID IT WITHOUT REMORSE THAT IT SHALL NEVER BE WELL WITH ANYONE WHO HAS EVER BEEN A MEMBER OF PDP.

MrALIVE:
go back to school! You are a stark illiterate

School? abi make the guy go learn how to sell gala for go slow .

Emexicoman:
Did u know that an MI 24 jet costs 30 million dollars in reality, but the past administration bought 2 pieces for 278 million dollars?
Did u kno that the 2 pieces were sold by an Indian vet doctor and they were not air worthy?
Did u kno that some of the equipment u see on pics were taken from Ohafia military base? In Abia state
Did u know that Dasuki did not deny sharing the arms fund? Metuh did not. Badeh did not
Did u know the fund was used to fund the PDP election expenses?
I only pray for what is best for my country but sharing an arms fund is not one of them.
I leave in maitama Abuja and I could give u details of what we see here from the politicians of the past administration. We are all human beings. Personally I expect better things from the APC than the PDP

Don't spoil our fun with all these over seriousness even if they show me all these pictures before the election, i would still vote against the shoeless one 'cause my mama didn't raise me to be daft.

DropShot:
This Oba dey contest for showbiz with Davido, Denrele, Toolz and co.

He is a modern day king not some old fetish archaic relic.

Decryptor:
You won't blame the militants! They heard when the nigerian president clearly said that he will bring about development to "those who voted for him first" before thinking of those who did not hence they would rather blow it up to see to it that the oil spills in their land rather than flow to Kaduna Refinery.

So when are you going to set your village ablaze to spite baba, this won't be a bad idea you know.

daretodiffer:
They should keep destroying their lands

Ko kan aye.

If only I'm daft enough to take you serious trash.

kpogede77:
Okurin means man in yoruba language while Okeren means man in Itsekiri language. There is no World like Okeren in Ijaw language. The name of the community before Ijaw tried to change it is okerenghigho which is old man. Okerenghigho is the name in the original certificate of occupancy but Tompolo forged a C of O and use it to sell the land to FG. EFCC knows this and he knows that he is guity as charged that is why he resulted to pipeline bombing

OKUNRIN GBI GBO, a man that is old.
