Notable black people including Martin Luther King Jr, Barrack Obama, Mandela, Oprah Winfrey, and lots of others are celebrated annually during the Black History Month. Many of such popular people referred to as blacks are brown-skinned. Yet, they're still generally called blacks showing the term "black people" is generally used to describe dark-skinned people and brown-skinned people. Thus, it's more correct to call the ancient Egyptians black people. Anything else from this is false or doctored history. Most Africans don't think critically and check things in detail before accepting them as the truth. Thus, they know little about African history. That's why in this part of the world, most don't know that all Christians and Muslims are pagans once you pray to Olorun, Chineke/Chukwu, Ohmorihi, and other pagan gods worshipped in Africa before its contact with the Europeans and Arabs that brought Christianity and Islam. All these gods are pagan gods completely different from Allah or Yahweh/Jehovah. However, each of the gods claims the title of God Almighty just like Buhari, Obama, JFK, and other leaders has/had the title of president at one time or the other. Obama isn't the same person as Buhari, just like Allah isn't the same as Olorun or Chukwu (pagan gods). I laugh whenever I see a cleric bearing Chukwuemeka calling traditional worshippers pagans, yet the root or base of his own name is Chukwu, a pagan god. Unknown to him, he's a pagan as well due to his name and the fact that he prays in Chukwu's name. But he's so ignorant that he thinks Chukwu is the same as Jehovah because both claim the title of God Almighty and also because the cunning European missionaries told him Chukwu is the same as Jehovah in their syncretic approach to rewrite his history. The ignorant Yoruba would call Esu Satan, which is like calling orange mango simply because they're both fruits. The average African doesn't know his left from right. |
Brown-skinned people in Africa are generally referred to as blacks. When Yorubas call Africa Ile adulawo (land of black-skinned people), they're not saying everyone in Africa has a dark skin. The term applies generally to all Africans, including those with brown/light skin and dark skin. |
DeadPresidents:The books of lies called the Bible and Qur'an don damage the brains of most Africans to the extent that they know little about African history, and the little they know is mostly lies from Abrahamic religions. Various books of history, including Otem's, written by African and black authors have explained how past Africans (blacks) created the ancient Egyptian civilization before the Greeks, Romans, and Arabs invaded the country, destroyed and altered some its monuments, and rewrote its history, erasing the history of the black people that built the civilization. Today, most Africans think Egyptians are Arabs, not knowing that the modern-day Egyptians are the descendants of the invaders and thieves that attacked and occupied the country in the 7th century. The real Egyptians were blacks, not the Arabs currently occupying the country or the Greeks and Romans that had occupied it in the past. The average African doesn't know their left from right and believes their ancestor is Arab or white because the Bible or Qur'an says so. |
MandM (Eminem) for the UCL final. |
izzou:Predictions. Nothing special. When you make many predictions in a year after studying the current trends and patterns of events in detail for a while and applying common sense, some predictions will come to pass, many won't. The same principle works with all pastors that claim to prophesy under the holy spirit. |
Fake pastor? Who come be original pastor? All of them na charlatans and scammers. Crooks |
izzou:He dropped a mere prediction, which anyone following the events and trends in Nigerian politics can do. |
This Isese practitioner is highly intelligent — his page goes by the name Tani Olorun on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100079032369128&mibextid=ZbWKwL His messages are targeted at Yoruba Muslims. Looking at the depth of his lectures on the native culture and imported religions such as Islam and Christianity, it's clear that Western education is overrated. This is a guy who isn't even a graduate and highly educated but can demonstrate such a high level of intelligence and critical thinking skills which you'd rarely find even among the most educated Muslims and Christians in the country. It's just sad that Africa has dumb people in high numbers with so-called high levels of education but who aren't really intelligent and critical thinkers. Regardless of your degrees, you can't lay claim to intelligence when you demonize your ancestors and the African cultures, while you revere the European or Arabic ones. While listening to Radio Lagos (on the frequency 107.5MHz FM) last week Friday, a Muslim cleric, a Yoruba, was delivering a lecture. He kept praising Saudi Arabia, Muhammad, and their monuments like Kabbah. Then, in the usual practice, he condemned his ancestors such as Orunmila, Ogun, Sango calling them evil, satanic entities. To foolish people like him, the history and cultures of his ancestors should be wiped off the face of the Earth, while all Africans adopt the Arabic culture (way of life) and ancestors. Such people, and we've them in high numbers in Nigeria and Africa as the majority, can't really develop because they're not intelligent enough to realize you don't grow as a people if you don't honor your ancestors and forefathers. I admire the knowledge of Tani Olorun about Isese (Yoruba native religion) and his knowledge of the history of Yoruba ancestors such as Obatala, Orunmila, Oya, Ifa, Osanyin, Ogun, Yemoja, and co. The more I learn about the history of these gifted people that had existed in the ancient past in this part of the world, the more I appreciate the depth of the histories in Otem's historical works. |
Good result for Man City. With a draw at Bernabeu, they've a higher chance to qualify. |
Greatihex:Most Chelsea fans know that except the clowns here that think his achievements with us were a fluke. |
Baldiola knows quality when he sees one.

raumdeuter:In most parts of Nigeria, there's relative peace and stability. Once the country adopts the US gun laws that are largely ineffective, you take all the relative peace and stability enjoyed by the majority away. Low literary levels, too much religiosity, high number of religious extremists, poor infrastructure, and lack of adequate health care facilities are few of the factors that make your suggestion DOA. For most Nigerians, gun wounds are among the surest ways to die, and a person is not expected to survive gun wounds. Most see such (surviving gun wounds because of medical care) as things that only happen in the movies. But they're regular feats achieved in the US due to their high quality of medical care. All those killings that happen in this country due to insecurity can be reduced with quality health care. Thus, health and security are two key aspects that depend on each other and work together to ensure a well functional society. |
raumdeuter:You've not given any solution to the problem. Your suggestion will only take the victims from frypan to fire. |
raumdeuter:So your solution to the high insecurity figures under the failed leadership of your APC leaders is for Nigeria to adopt the US gun laws? If Nigeria adopts that approach, even your darling Tinubu no go fit stay for naija and rule the country. Na den you go know say every Nigerian get craze for head and that the 60 million estimate of Nigerians with mental illnesses by psychiatrist na gross underestimation

Kimbeast:Says who? |
Kimbeast:So because the US shares borders with Mexico, it's not possible for the US gun laws to be improved and made stricter? |
raumdeuter:Lols, you can only say so on Nairaland since you're not in Nigeria. No Nigerian politicians or lawmaker go even give the suggestion any thought because they know Nigerians will come for them first once such gun laws are passed. |
raumdeuter:So the solution is for Nigeria to adopt the American gun laws? Will that reduce the killings or multiply them in several folds? |
Osimhen has Kvara, the elevator of poor strikers, to thank for elevating his career even though Osimhen joined Napoli as a hot prospect and has now become a more prolific scorer. Osimhen played well today by the way and scored a goal. Kvara didn't feature in the match.

Though Man Utd get one outstanding, shey dem no go bottle their top four campaign like this |
raumdeuter:It's not as rampant in most parts of Nigeria as you're asserting. Then, allowing some citizens to own and use a gun legally will make the few annual cases of such killings skyrocket. |
raumdeuter:You cited a case that happened in 1999, around 24 years ago. If the government follows your suggestion, we'd be having at least six of such cases yearly like the US. |
You want some citizens to be armed with a gun in a country where you've a large number of dumb people ready to kill for a god over an issue as trivial as not properly handling some bunch of papers they call a holy book. |
raumdeuter:No, I don't wish that. I still prefer the approach of our government (even though it's not quite effective) to your suggestion. The idea of allowing some citizens to be armed with a gun is a deadly one. It will just make things a lot more worse with the high level of poverty, anger, and frustration in the country. |
raumdeuter:Abi, make dem kuku allow every adult carry gun including the psychopaths and sociopaths |
Na just to scroll past the posts of some silly commenters here. It's those ones engaging the were in a back-and-forth I blame. Na to bin any unnecessary mention here. |
If you want to fight with all men on this thread as a bitter feminist, go on. But don't mention me unnecessarily. |
Eunoiaa:Are you sure everything is all right with you? What's my business with those you're fighting with all about? Don't mention this moniker unnecessarily in your frivolous discussion. |
Apart from 2016-17, 2017-18, and 2020-21 seasons where he was injured for most part of the seasons, there was no season Osimhen scored less than 18 goals in all competitions. 2018-19: 20 goals 2021-22: 18 goals 2022-23: 27 goals (the season Kvara joined) So, Kvara elevated Osimhen's career with less than 10 assists just this season they played together, with Osimhen scoring over 17 goals in a season in all competitions? Lols, some nonsense you read on Nairaland sha. Osimhen had even won a number of awards before playing with Kvara, including the CAF youth player award. The question is, who was Kvara before he joined Napoli? |
Incognito9:Before playing with Osimhen in Napoli, little was known about Kvara. Before their Napoli days at a time when Osimhen was already fairly well known by many football fans in Europe and had won some accolades, Kvara was an unknown entity. He's a good player that has enjoyed a good season with Napoli in his debut season, but Osimhen is the club's best player this season. Osimhen was signed with a huge fee and didn't fail to meet the high expectations fans had of him on joining the club. |
Incognito9:If not for Osimhen and Napoli, most of us hadn't heard that name Kvara before. At the time Osimhen joined Napoli, he was a hot prospect in Europe sought after by multiple clubs. |
Osimhen joined Napoli as a potential world class striker which was why he was their record signing. If he leaves the club now, he has worked hard to make his stocks rise tremendously and could become a world-class striker soon. Some would even argue he's world class already. |
