Firstly, i think that crap that Gbenga Daniel built on Olumo rock should be brought down. I don't know why some of our leaders are daft. How can you touch such a natural place with so much artificiality.

mr sage: @afam4eva, the idea is to pay a service provider (a tour guide) for transportation, feeding, access to the historic sites, hotel accommodation and all others, so you have a nice and memorable experience. All the logistics will be handled by us

I think that's a brilliant initiative. It saves people the energy of having to plan for logistics themselves. I think Nigeria is under-toured and if this message can be advertised well, it will portend a great future for the tourism industry.

Abagworo: Ibadan is an ancient city and I don't see anything wrong with that unless the OP is trying to claim Ibadan has been completely rebuilt which I doubt with the size of the city and its compounded challenges.

There's a small fraction of the city is quasi-modern and not like the Ibadan that's usually being advertised.

What will i be paying for? Is it the transportation or to have access to the historic sites?

ibn akogun: Having problem uploading it am on my smartphone..

Just keep trying. Don't forget to upload the first set of pictures with your first post.

We're waiting for the pictures. I think Ibadan is under-represented.

I just hope this Eze guy talks less and acts more.

ketoprofen: There is no truth in that thread of yours.
I chogodiri ide udi ihe ahu, idee ya na Igbo.

I was right afterall

nnenna.1:
Afam na wa o. Shebi the other day you were saying that Ikwerres/Deltans denied Igbos because there was nothing to be proud of as an Igbo.

Another day you opened a thread on the supposed lack of development in Igboland.

Methinks nairaland is rubbing off on you negatively.

Hmm!

Not really. I've just decided to start telling the truth. The truth may hurt but it's a catalyst for change. We shouldn't keep deluding ourselves that everything is alright when it's actually not. The only reason why some people won't want me to make such assertions is the fact that the enemies will use it as a tool. Everybody wants their supposed foes to see them as being superior in some sense. I wish there was a way i could pour out those assertions of mine in an Igbo only meeting because they're the raw truth. It's just that our people have refused to accept it.

When did Utomi become an APC member?

chux4liv: I concur with your clarification of Ibo/Igbo but I disagree with your last statement that they could have originated from Owerri, Ngwan, Idemilli When Its clearly cited as origininating from bini (You don't want agree they're bini origin. but want them to claim eastern origin??)

He's not saying they originated from those places. He's just saying that it makes more sense to say they originated from those places than to say they originated from Igbo because there's no place called Igbo. That's the mistake you folks keep making. There was no such thing as Igbo kingdom, village etc in the past and there's none at present as far as i know. Even if there is, it's just a borrowed name used to describe the Igboid tribes.

ketoprofen: did she in any way say others don't have positive sides?

Maybe i over-reacted. The title of the thread sounded somehow.

I've always loved Chinelo

Was it Wale or Taio Cruz that once denied his Naija heritage?

Two Nigerian players in Man City? I just hope their yansh don't get too flat for sitting too much.

Adaviruqu: Just as people in the north will assume that all the people from the former eastern region are igbos eh? Does that make them right in their assumption?

Aren't we talking about assumptions?

They should investigate and find out who she was giving the money. Why would she rather kill herself than reveal the person's identity. This one fit be African remote control oo cos i don't understand how someone will take her life for such flimsy reason. It's like saying, "I'll rather kill myself than commit suicide"

Adaviruqu: I am mostly surprise at the way you southern folks exhibit ''I know too much" and yet you make this kind of summation of hausa population not up to 10m. If you hate people does that mean you should not be thruthful in your presentation.

If you noticed in my post, i used MAY. It's not an absolute statement and i was only trying to paint the fact that the Hausa population may not be as much as people think. In Nigeria, a lot of people always use Hausa and Northerners interchangeably.

Perfect couple



It's not like the woman is beautiful but Oshiomhole will manage her afterall he too sef no fine.

Is Oshiomole finer than the woman? Besides, the woman is fine.

I don't think Oshiomole will pass the opportunity of marrying a fresh blood like Dillish or any other young girl. Though it will make a very good news to hear that he married the widow.

Countries in Scandinavia are the safest and most peaceful in the world.

ilugunboy: So someone claimed an Ibadan / Lagos media mafia... I suggested that a counter balance mafia can be established to balance the story...your warped sense read tribalism..

See how that has eaten deep into your senses.

Afam wrote

So how is that different from what I wrote..,just that I went further with additional suggestion.

When you started mentioning Onitsha/Owerri/Enugu/Umuhia, i lnew you were going tribal. Lagos media is not the same as Yoruba media. People from all over Nigeria own these media outfits but their outlook is usually projected by the idiosyncratic nature of Lagos.

Can you post the full story here pls.

It's for the same reason that husbands will overlook the stretch mark on a lady or any other defect when getting down with the person. Kongi is dangerous and can lead some people to sleep with even animals.

ilugunboy: Why not establish your own Onitsha/Owerri/Enugu/Umuhia axis mafia?

Why the whining ?

I'm waiting for the day your comment will not be decorated with tribalism. Is that all you do on Nairaland? hardly do you i see any comment of yours that has nothing to do with Igbo/Yoruba. kai.

This is why i've been clamoring for the decentralization of media outfits. 90% of media outfits are based in Lagos and their sentiments will be geared towards the political idiosyncrasy of the area. I noticed this in the Ondo and Anambra elections where Akeredolu and Ngige were being mentioned as candidates who would probably win the election only for them to come, not second but third. This shows that these media houses are not in tune with what's going on in other parts of Nigeria and only see issues from a myopic prism.

Why not change you password via your cpanel and try again.

When i joined Nairaland, i started from the Webmaster section then the politics section then the culture section and then the familiy section. I left the family section because it seems people are not interested in my advise. I thought i was a marital coach but no one seems to be buying my ogbanje advice.

I knew Hershel was gonna die sooner or later but i wasn't expecting him to time in such a cruel manner. I was expecting him dying in his sleep or something. I also find it strange that the Governor would choose to kill Hershel before Michone whom he has been itching to kill for a long time. I was expecting him to put a bullet through her the moment he sights her.

This episode was the bomb and it brought back that TWD spirit. I can't believe i have to wait till February to watch the other half of season 4.

Is Okpanam not the hometown of Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu? I hope they release him unharmed. They should pray he doesn't have an ogbunigwe with him.
