Culture › Re: Why Did Yoruba Culture Survive In Latin America And Not Igbo Or Others by Adiwana: 7:19pm On Feb 09, 2015
True. EVERY SINGLE AFRICAN GROUP of people who were enslaved in the caribbean/latin america left their mark. Every single one. Not one country or territory is mostly anything. We are a blend of all.

The whole concept of Yoruba vs. Igbo is extremely irrelevant when talking about us because truth be told, even though we are influenced by all of the west africans who were enslaved..STILL no west african group has influenced the caribbean and latin america like the Kongo peoples of central africa, generally speaking.

west africa gave us dialects and certain superstitions...but when it comes to lifestyle, music and dance...the kongo-angola area (any historian or expert on caribbean cultures will tell you) has the largest influence. whenever you hear dancehall, rumba, samba, merengue, salsa, calypso, soca; etc you are listening to central africa. literally...so....

we're an all around diverse group of people. we can't be boxed in to any one group...another reason why it's not wise to assume the practicing of yoruba language/customs = yoruba domination/superiority.
God bless you!!!never knew the KONGO people invented Dancehall which is Jamaica's main song even soca which is GENERALLY southern america's most inflential genre of music.and some fools go dey claim superiority

4chi:
See where envy and petty jealousy has driven you. You are no different from a rabid infested dog. Was it the fault of the yorubas that your fathers were primitive,naked wild living mongrels? Food gatherers and cave men? You wish you were Yoruba but since your chi has decided otherwise, learn to live with it.

Forget all the crap being spewed above,the Yoruba culture survived in the diaspora because IT IS THE MOST RESILIENT CULTURE FROM AFRICA AND IT'S SPIRITUALITY IS WORLD ACCLAIMED UP TILL TODAY. Yorubas don't owe anybody any apology for that after all, aji se bi oyo la nri, oyo o se bi baba enikankan .

Ask yourself which other African group has anything as deep as the ifa corpus coupled with impressive pantheon of gods which aremore than that of the Greek mythology. Yorubas have always been the initiator and not the immitators in matters of culture or why do you think the rest of Nigeria now tie gele, wear aso ebi and aso oke, adire, etc, etc other cultures will continue to imitate but you will never see a Yoruba man tie wrapper. Eewo Orishas!!
i hate reading things like this.we are in a world where countries depend on other countries' inputs&thus cant do without others.IF NOT russia's economy should depend on itself despite the sanctions,but they are struggling.just as a person cant be an island so it is in terms of cultures.no dey try claim tribal superority.igbos contribute to yoruba,yoruba to Hausa and so on.am sure that some of the things you do were borrowed from other cultures&so do others borrow from you.the world is evolving,so stop being SENTIMENTAL

EUROBOMBER:
The main reason why I will vote for GEJ is to make a statement. 2015 is about making a point in this country and we must drive that point home even if the gates of hell are opened. The message we must drive into some thick skulls is that Nigeria belongs to all of us. No tribe is born-to-rule while others are born to siddon dey look.

There must be fairness, equity and justice in this country. Power MUST go round if we are truly one Nigeria. Why must a particular group of people continue to terrorize the rest of the nation when they are not in power?

When OBJ, a southerner was in power, they declared Sharia law and caused a series of very violent riots in the north which led to the death of many Southerners and northern Christians.

As soon as Jonathan, another Southerner took over government, boko haram which was previously a rag tag group suddenly transforms into a mighty fighting force, blasting churches to pieces, killing innocent Nigerians and recently seizing towns and abducting our women.

The question is why is it that we cannot have peace when the people from Futa Jalon are not in power?

Buhari will NEVER rule Nigeria again. let me say this loud and clear, the best for Buhari is that he will end up as president of arewastan and maybe Odua republic but Buhari will NEVER rule Nigeria again.

See the people down there that believe Aso Rock is their property, they believe they were born to rule in Nigeria. Whenever they are not in power, they make sure nobody can sleep. See them there. embarassed embarassed embarassed embarassed


Dive-Bomber.
You are one of the problems we have in this Country.We are not looking for a leader that is from East,west or co.but a leader that will take us to the promise land.Jonathan has done absouletly nothing in SE..not even 1.SS nko?not to talk about NE..if Buhari Would Take us there,who gives a Bleep if he's Hausa or muslim..forget about Useless Sentiments

Sum1 shuld assist on this question

A alloy of mass 588g and a volume 100cm^3 is made of density 8.0g/cm^3 and alluminium of density 2.7g/cm^3.
Calculate the proportion;

(i)By Volume
(ii)By Mass of the constituents of the alloy.

Fankz in advance.
let mass of Aluminum=X
p=m/v
v=m/p
100=588-X/8 + X/2.7
100x8x2.7=8X+2.7(588-X)
2160=8X+1587.6-2.7X
2160-1587.6=8X-2.7X
572.4=5.3X
X=572.4/5.3
X=108g
mass of Al=108g


but p=m/v

Politics › Re: PDP-Sponsored Documentary On Buhari & My Analysis by Adiwana: 1:00pm On Jan 27, 2015
Western countries has really brain-washed the world in terms of democracy.they make it look like autocracy is a badass Govt&thats the problem.they make dictators look bad even if they are good
1)Buhari was a military ruler(Dictator)&so you dont expect him to Romance People.
2)In military rule,theres no freedom of press,rule of law cos thats the Protocol&as such you dont expect buhari who is in Autocracy to use democratic ruling
i)Jonathan under Democracy used military force to Take over Rivers Staduim which is under the watch of The State Govt
ii)imposed same ruling Tambuwal
iii)Mis-used his power in Deciding many Primary elections all over the Federation
iv)suspended&seized the passport of the Current Emir of Kano cos he simply said the truth
v)Gave license to Militants to purchase arms but Under arms the army
vi)Court martials Soldiers
i could continue..lets vote Change.lets not vote cos of ethno-religous sentiments.we know Buhari is lying about job creation but lets give him a chance
God bless me,
God bless you,
God bless Nigerians,
God bless Buhari,
God bless the Fed.Republic of Nigeria.

I laugh..them no get any other propaganda up their sleeves,na to tell him make him go sidon
if you watched Obama's speech to the Chambers,you will see who a president is..no be even campaign sef..you see him list his achievements&plans for next 2yrs b4 he leaves office.but in Nigeria,the opposite is the case..you see Pres.Jonathan going over the media acting Childlishly,has no clue of What hes done or plans to move Nigeria&its citizens forward..it is simple
1)Tell Nigerians what youve done to deserve 2nd term
2)tell us how you're planning to move Nigeria Forward
instead using Certificate which wouldnt put food on our tables or money in our pockets,tell us how you're planning of moving us forward instead of using the media houses like vanguard and punch for your Useless,Nonsense Campaign propaganda

gp6liveth:
Its free to blame anybody on ur woes. The past and present northern leaders have impoverished these people to the extent that they believe that he who is poor is poor and he who is rich is rich as it has been said by their god. That is why a rich Muslim always give money to the poor and will never teach him how to make money. God bless the Igbos for their wisdom for riches.

Why are u blaming the FG for lack of unemployment? Have u asked ur self what your state governor or LG chairman has done for you? A wise Nigerian will always ask what can he do for his nation and not what his nation can do for him. Govt should not take care of u, rather u should take care of the govt.

I bet you that if buhari step into Aso rock of which I believe he will not, the northerners will continue to dominate the streets and school gates begging for coins because they believe that poverty is their destiny.

I pray that God should give most of these youth the wisdom to think outside the box and know the root of their problems so that they can find possible ways to better their lives.

I really love the game especially when watching it with a friend in support of the rivals and you guys get to mock each other team.
