fried-rice:
Brother, you need to learn from spyder90 a fellow nairalander
what photo journalism is about. You spent the whole day traveling from Abuja to Enugu
and you have only 4 very uninteresting pictures to show for it. who's interested in seeing your 1993 Peugeot 605?

Malawian: these yaribas will burst a blood vessel ni.

Ogbuefi_Negro: yo akpomeme,

you are preaching to the choir here! Theres nothing new to me in all these things.....go to culture section and do search on Yoruba, Oduduwa, Lamurudu, Ife.....and you will see many of my posts. This post here is for Igbo Judaism, do not derail it with nonsense.

I will love to see you present Igbo history and arts and culture, myths and deeds, creeds and rites, language and roots that connect them to Jew, rather than modifying the history of other legitimate cultures to mimick authenticity.

I hear a lot of Igbos say they are bin this and bin that and bin Israel. What does "bin" mean in Igbo language?

ODUA_NEGRO: They went to Israel and their claim was officially rejected. They campaigned in America and got some street corner rabbi to support them but the American Rabbinical has officially rejected their claim as false. Now they are campaigning in Britain in hope they will get someone to buy their story.

All the lost tribes so far identified have been done so voluntarily by Israel, no authentic lost tribe of Israel goes on a "I am Jew" campaign, Igbos are the first and only one on this drive. Original lost tribes hide their origin and practice in humility not wanting anyone to know who they are. Igbo has failed that authenticatiin test.

joyblinks: This is a story from a very depressed woman.

I am 40 years old, I am a beautiful, intelligent but lonely woman. I was 17years old when I got admission into the university, and in my second year, I met a guy, we dated for about 4months and I got pregnant, when I got pregnant, I told my boyfriend and he denied impregnating me, he said we had only dated for 4months and that I was trying to trap him down with pregnancy which he was not ready for. With the support of my parents, I kept the pregnancy and had my baby girl, my daughter grew up into a beautiful woman.

The whole problem started when my daughter was 22 years old daughter. One day she called me to say she is bringing her fiancé home in 2days time, that he had proposed to marry her and she accepted. I was so happy to see my daughter achieve what I couldn’t achieve all though my youthful age.

When my daughter and her fiancé came home two days later, I was so dumb founded. My daughter came home with this cute, tall, dark and lovable guy, when he smiled, I almost melted. Immediately my heart loved him and I knew there was problem. I took them both inside and we got talking, they said they’ve made arrangements for the wedding to come up in 2weeks time. And I was like, why the rush, and they told me my daughter was already pregnant and they just needed to do everything fast.

After my daughter and her fiancé left, I kept thinking about this guy, what it will be like having him all to myself but then I also thought about my daughters feelings and how its going to hurt her if I make any crazy move at the guy and I don’t ever want to hurt my daughter for any reason so i thought the only way I was going to kill that feeling was to avoid seeing the guy.

Leadn: 46 Yr Old Father Of 3 Dies After Dancing Gangnam Style


A father collapsed and died of a heart attack in front of his wife and co-workers minutes after dancing energetically to Gangnam Style at his office Christmas party.

Eamonn Kilbride, 46, had been imitating the vigorous dance moves of the Korean YouTube hit when he began to suffer from chest pains on Saturday evening.

Shocked colleagues from the Thwaites brewery in Blackburn looked on as paramedics tried in vain to revive the Irish father of three at the office party.
His wife Julie was with him celebrating her birthday at the event at the Whitehall Hotel in Darwen, Lancashire.

Mr Kilbride began to complain of chest pains shortly before he collapsed, whereupon his wife tried to save his life using CPR.

Although paramedics were on the scene just five minutes later, the IT manager was pronounced dead on arrival at Royal Blackburn Hospital shortly after 11.30pm.

Mrs Kilbride, from Burnley, paid tribute to the 'loving husband' she married 23 years ago, and said he was a man who always put his family first.
'I want people to know how he would help anybody whether it was a life-long friend, or someone he had just met,' she said.
'He was a great family man and he worked so hard. Eamonn was always the life of the party and loved dancing.

'We were having a fantastic time at the Christmas party and Eamonn had just finished dancing to Gangnam Style. He was up on stage and entertaining everybody.

'He said he had a bit of a pain and just collapsed. I tried to revive him until the ambulance got there, but by the time he got to the hospital he was gone.'

Mr Kilbride moved to Burnley from Ireland in 1985, and became a staunch Liverpool fan in his adopted country.
His wife said: 'Eamonn was such an intelligent man, he inspired our children and made sure they had a good education.'
Mr Kilbride, a keen golfer, had three children - Laurajade, 22, Jack, 21, and Conor, 18, who are all at university.

Jack said: 'He was a marvellous man and he was really funny. He always put effort into everything. He just oozed charisma.'

Tributes poured in on Facebook for Mr Kilbride, who had worked at Thwaites for 16 years.
His cousin Pauline Mulvy said: 'My dear cousin Eamonn may you rest in peace. My heart aches for his wife Julie and his family, including his sisters and his mother. You are in my thoughts and prayers here in Dublin. What shocking news to hear.'

Police launched an initial investigation into Mr Kilbride's death, but quickly ruled out suspicious circumstances.
Neil Bullows, proprietor of the Whitehall Hotel, said: 'It is a terrible tragedy and our thoughts are with his family.
'It is horrendous and an awful time of year for it to happen.'
Mr Kilbride's funeral will take place next Wednesday at St Mary's RC Church in Burnley.

akpomeme: I blame Jonathan for Ciroma and Atiku and all leaders from the Northern Nigeria promising that they will make Nigeria ungovernable if Jonathan wins election... Yet they walk around free attending events and recieving awards while the common man dies in the North from the scorch of their promises.

fadamekus: u don see JESUS befor?

BizBooks: As we all know, the eastern coast of the United States was devastated by Hurricane Sandy in
late October 2012. Incidentally, the east coast is where the major Ports are located. One of
these major Ports is at Bayonne, New Jersey. After the storm, it was revealed that more than
10,000 cars awaiting shipment to Africa and South America were severely damaged. The damages
include:

· Flood Damage
· Fire Damage
· Body Damage

The damages were so severe that the shipping lines refused to accept the cars for shipment
and asked the owners to remove them from the Port. If you are wondering why the shipping
lines refused to continue with the shipping, it is because the cars were no longer functional.
To load a car on ship, somebody has to actually start it and drive it onto the ship. If a
car cannot start, most shipping lines will not accept it. If they do, they will charge you
a heavy surcharge called Non-Running Vehicle Surcharge.

I wouldn't have written this article if the story ended here. But then something remarkable
happened. Some of these shipping lines turned around and said they will ship these damaged
cars to Africa if the owners put them in a container. Many people took this option and as a
result, these cars are now headed to Nigeria. Some are already in Lagos as we speak while
others will be arriving shortly.

The unfortunate thing is that these flooded and damaged cars will not show up on Carfax or
Autocheck. Carfax and Autocheck do not track cars once they are shipped out of the US. So
the last entry you will see for these cars in VIN reports is: "Exported to Nigeria - October
2012.

So Buyer Beware.

P.S: The picture below shows containers over-turned by hurricane Sandy at Bayonne Port. This
will give you an idea of the force of the storm.
