Politics / Re: Polygamy Is A Problem For Economic Development by Abohboy: 6:47pm On Oct 19, 2021 |
Blue3k: It never specified an area most polygamous families live in rural villages and depend on subsitent farming meanwhile most monogamous families tend to live in the city and be middle class so unless the study specifies the wages or the area that each family lives in and the government facilities available to them e.g. Schools, hospitals, good roads, electricity then it isn't an actual based study but rather one clearly made to propagate an agenda 1 Like |

Blue3k: When you're going to quote me later on i'd like to make it clear that Chief Timothy Adeola Odutola already had 2 wives before becoming extremely rich through his businesses this was when he was still trading damasks and fish in Lagos before expanding to Ogun and then manufacturing tyres and retreading tyres then came gold, palm oil, cocoa and the rest of the things but ultimately polygamy doesn't equate poverty |

Blue3k: Try and learn about correlation and causation because clearly whoever wrote that article doesn't understand those things Do they live in a rich area as most monogamous people do? Is there an abundance of food in the areas where polygamy is practiced? Are there schools where polygamy is mainly practiced? The problem isn't polygamy but the government failing to provide fair development for all people 1 Like |

Culture / Re: Reasons More Schools Should Introduce Learning A Foreign Language. by Abohboy: 6:04pm On Oct 19, 2021 |
We should have a system whereby each student learns an indigenous language e.g. Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, Efik etc. Along with English and one over foreign language whether it be Mandarin, Japanese, German, French etc. This would work very well for us but for now we should focus on 100% literacy rates across the nation in English and one native language before adding on all the other options like German |

rvp2018:You cannot tell the difference between a Yoruba and an Igbo unless the Igbo person is lightskin everything you're saying is bullshit even between Zulu and Xhosa you can't tell the difference but for some groups like East Africans you can tell by the forehead but us in West Africa there's no distinct future to differentiate between each group especially between the Yoruba and Igbo who basically share the same DNA, genotypes and even cultures stop trying to make it seem like you can tell where a person is by looks alone and propagating this racial theorem 3 Likes |

theTranslator: 1. Oyo empire where the Oyo Mesi could take control and depose of the Alaafin whenever they wanted? And a great example is near the collapse of the Oyo empire where 9 Alaafins were forced to commit the ritual suicide because the despotic Bashorun Gaa wanted to become the Alaafin that's the system you want? 2.Women may not have been equal but they still had a voice and they still had rights there were even women that could be admitted into the Umunna if they were influential enough in the community, a woman could become a massive land owner and even a chief in the village if she works hard to build her wealth and the same applies to Yoruba society so that point doesn't really matter. The Osu and Ohu system is and was horrible and i'm still trying to learn the rational behind it but it allegedly wasn't practiced in Nri where they accepted all no matter the race, language, or any other sins committed as long as they followed the rules of the kingdom. 3. There's a reason why they were called kingdoms and why Oyo was called an empire and yes it was much larger but what exactly is your point? You said they were at clan level mostly and I just told you that they had kingdoms that spanned the whole of Abia to parts of southern enugu and parts of anambra state ( Aro Kingdom ). Other kingdoms stretched from the Niger River at Aboh all the way down to Brass ( Aboh Kingdom ) and others occupied the whole of central and northern Anambra, and parts of Enugu and Imo ( Nri ) for the most part they were organized into kingdoms it was only in very sparse and small areas where they were actually independent and worked at clan or village level 4. That's false the Igbos were modernized they had houses, canoes, iron working, brass working, clay working, indigenous scripts ( Apart from Nsibidi such as the Aniocha script ) and they even had whole barns made for yams and they were built in a row by row manner to hang each yam in it's own section and in order of freshest to the least fresh so your point of the need for monarchy for there to be modernization at the time was just stupid |

theTranslator: 1. It was better undoubtedly but the system was exploited e.g. Oyo empire 2. Your point is false the women were equally represented in the democracy you had the: Umunna ( Male ) Umuada ( Female ) And another one for the children and youths that i've forgotten the name of but essentially everybody was represented and voted democratically by the village people and don't even bring that Eze nonsense because Eze isn't a kingship title or monarchial but a priesthood system rather 3. The Igbos did have large states e.g. Nri Kingdom, Aboh, Kingdom and Aro Kingdom were all large polities and not based at clan level as you wrongly claimed 4. I'll just ignore that one doesn't even begin to make sense how is it a lack of modernization please elaborate |

mtisTheQubit: There's a reason For one there where older hominid groups in those areas before the homo sapiens arrived in Yoruba land they haven't identified this group yet but in Igbo land they've identified it as the pygmies so both the Yorubas and Igbos have 20% DNA difference due to the dufferent hominid groups but the rest of the 80% DNA that is homo sapien based the divergence is very minor they still look very similar I know this cause my dad is Igbo and My Mom is Yoruba but you actually can't tell the difference between either side of the family |

mtisTheQubit: They have the same origin as the Yoruba and all the other Niger Congo groups where that is? We don't know but we do know is they share a common ancestry although Igbo society is a lot more advanced then others with their democratic system of leadership for example |

MaxInDHouse: It's a whole kingdom with different people of different dialects, the Aro Igbo stil thought against other Igbos like those in Umuleri even though they spoke the same langauge so your point was wrong, language doesn;t equate peace and they had a political structure through the Umunna There is no singular evidence you can provide that proves that only Christianity or Jesus as you say can provide oeace when the Crusades so called Christians were violent or even the English in their colonial rule, yet no singular person in the Nri Kingdom ever initiated an act of violence or killing that should tell you which religion really ensures peace in the land 1 Like |

MaxInDHouse: What? I gave you an example of the Nri who never once started a war there was literally no violence allowed, they never traded slaves or what not no singular person of their religion killed another and they practiced Odinani, had Dibias, did divinations and had masquerades there was no concept of Jesus and yet there was peace in the land without racism |

MaxInDHouse: I clearly know more about Isese then you do when you claim the Orisha are fallen angels and added to that everybody in Africa has a traditional religion as their ancestral worship so your point doesn't matter Science isn't solely for health, science is also to find out where we came from, how we evolved and what we can do to improve our lives and create new technology and yes science does contradict God's word many many times 2 Likes |

MaxInDHouse: The world needs scientific knowledge not knowledge on the so called word of God i've grown up in a christian household and I still live in one but I certainly don't accept the religion. The topic was that Isese isn't idol worshipping as people of your religion claim you didn't make any constructive claim as to why people of your religion do that rather you tried to force a link or a narrative between the two religions that don't exist with your fallen angels bs then you moved on to start talking about God choosing a singular race like that even begins to make sense 3 Likes |
