BusinessRe: Which Nigerian Bank App Is The Worst In 2026? by Alba3: 12:54pm On May 24
Among the 3 I use Ecobank, Zenith and Opay; Eco app is the worst, it does go on vacation at anytime, failed transactions here and there, and sometimes the transaction would failed on the app but successful to the bank, particularly to fintech banks and this makes you pay twice or thrice.
Car TalkRe: Most Reliable Toyota Camry by Alba3: 10:04pm On May 12
Generally all Camry models are great except 2007-2009 4 cylinders (for burning of oil and inferior dashboard on both cylinders)

However, when you consider everything, I rate 2012-2015 and 2002-2006 the all round best.

PoliticsRe: Handing Over Our Hard-fought Mandate To Ganduje Is Betrayal – Kwankwaso by Alba3: 12:38pm On Jan 15

In all of these, who is the authentic Emir of Kano?

Won't this defection affects the dynamics? Loyalty will shift, interest will shift and only the puns will be discarded, to make room for new ones.

Never allow anyone use your head.
Bayero has upper hand now because Abba will leave Sanusi to Kwankwaso; Bayero surely has higher support among Kanawa. However, nobody really understands Kano politics. They may divide the Emirate again to accommodate the cousins.

PoliticsRe: 10 Persons Killed In Riyom, Plateau State by Alba3: 3:36pm On Nov 02, 2025
Religious and ethnic bias is the bane of the security forces and some government institutions for decades. It's high time the present government dealt decisively with and tamed these Fulani militias.

Every successive governments have been pampering these killers. Their wars of expansion on the indigenous peoples must be stopped. Just look at them in their thousands in all their videos, displaying guns and ammunition.

If we don't want to have another RRF and another Sudan, the government should do something now no matter the supports they enjoy among their supporters and some Muslims, particularly in the North. They should be wiped out; Only Obasanjo's government tried and dealt a bit with them; others since 1966 only pamper and dance to their tune. I implore Tinubu to be different even if he has to serve a term.

This country should be returned to regionalism and middle belt having theirs.

BusinessRe: Ekiti Becomes First SW State To Top Inflation Rankings by Alba3:
Godfullsam:
Ekiti state mostly depends on food items imported from other states. Agricultural activities are mostly dead and buried in that state.

The youths have since abandoned agriculture for education.

That is probably the major reason for food inflation in the state.
Your comment shows you didn't read the write-up.

Food items dropped/eased by 6.8%. the inflation is on non-food like accommodation and transport.

Just as someone has mentioned, the overzealous unions are responsible for inflation in Ekiti.

His maternal kins are from Iragbiji but the circumstances of his birth into the Tinubu family is not for discussion in this kind of forums.

Tinubu is from Lagos, from that same Tinubu's family; his mother is from Osun. The man isn't coming out to tell anyone his story because he wants people to continue to argue on something that's so irrelevant to them. Real Lagosians know that Tinubu is one of them.

I don't know how Nigerians leave these 36 Governors and put all their focus on Abuja.

They just shared one of the highest, a total sum of ₦2.1 trillion as July 2025 revenue among the Federal Government, State Governments, and Local Governments.

Chief Bode George even said Osun's Gov that's receiving state allocations steady is using his money and that of his family to pay salaries.

Ebilokan has decided that marginalisation of those who are not in his Yorubalokan alliance is the best way to achieve reelection in 2027.

Meanwhile, he will continue destroying our country worse than his expired northerner Buhari did, after making his fellow southerner Jonathan a one term president.
You people like to wail on unnecessary stuff. The DG post had been given to a former senator in Zamfara and many others in the north and south but they resected it. Ms Rinsola has been the SSA on this agency and she accepted to be the DG while another youth from Kano takes her position. It's a round peg in a round hole, she knows this agency well to bring necessary reforms it urgently needed.
Christianity EtcRe: Do You Take Bible To Church? by Alba3: 6:27pm On Jun 08, 2025
We hardly look in the paper dictionary these days and many other stuff like that; electronic ones are the order of the day. Should the same should apply to Holy Bible? It depends on what you use that phone for and your personal conviction. For me, It's not really good pulling Bible verses out of same phone with which one indulges in both "immorals and illegals".

They are different types of vehicles. The best choice here is the 2013 Cx-5. Better if you get one in good condition with the help of a trusted technician.

You don't seem to understand the difference between Oba of Kano, Sarkin Sasa (when these places have Emir of Kano and Baale of Sasa) and Oba Yoruba in Kano or Sarkin Hausawa in Sasa.

Did Jonathan remove the governors and the HoAs like Zik/Balewa and Obasanjo plus Tinubu have done?

Are you a habitual liar huh
Were the the legislature and executive having protracted fight in those States you mentioned? Only Ekiti situation was almost the same with Rivers, although no one was bombing government infrastructure, still Obj suspended everyone. Awolowo wasn't lucky as he was tried and sent to jail.
In 2018 senate already reamended the law and gave the President power to suspend governor if there is or going to be serious problem in any state. Common sense should tell you that Fubara was on the path to impeachment and the President's declaration just saved him. I know you online judges only long for crisis, which will surely affect good people of Rivers.

CultureRe: Yoruba Hebrew Heritage (End Of Discussion) by Alba3:
Dsimmer:
Yeah, I simply emphasized how the Jews were Africans, in relative to the ancient Black Egyptians since the Jews were Egyptian looking in nature. There was even some old articles where the Europeans were referring to the Yoruba as the Jews residing in Africa during the early colonization. So whether Yorubas are Jews or not, the Europeans always knew the Jews were Blacks to begin with before they were dispersed into Europe📌📌

Speaking of the Eurasian admixture, the Eurasian admixture of the East Africans (Ethiopian for example) is the second oldest after the Yoruba while that of the North Africans is the least oldest 📌📌

That was why I came up with the two theories. Either the Yoruba parted early from the Jews in the old BC timeline or the Yoruba could also be ancient people doing their things like I theorised. I mean the Yoruba have got ancient African gene, including the ghost DNA.
Although many would always opposed to this based on their myopic view. However, I want to state here that the Yoruba people of today were not of one origin; of recent were people from Baruba, Nupe, etc origins.

The most ancient among the Yorubas were the Urahurẹs (Ara urẹ/wẹwẹ) as we called them in Ekiti; some said they were pygmies, others said they were Koisans. These groups ancestors made those marks you find on the rocks in Iṣarun, around present Ondo and Ekiti States. Also those Archeological discoveries in Iwo Ẹlẹru. They populated this region before the coming of Ulesuns.

The Ulesuns as we referred to them were not just one group but the most popular ones gave Yorubas most of their religion and traditions. The Ogun, Obatala, Orunmila, Láàlu, Agboniregun, etc. They shared almost same origin with Crete, Greeks and some of the Phoenicians, etc. They migrated earlier to settle in W/Africa particularly Ife, Ado Ekiti, Ikole and most parts of present Osun, Ekiti, Ondo, Kogi and Edo. They actually came with story of first Ife establishment in the Mediterranean. Other Kemet groups like kwararafa, kenem, Igala started joining them, the Igala in particular and some of these groups also moved to Edo and the Niger Delta (Obagodo of Igodomigodo, the Oru peoplem etc

The last major people that made up Yoruba and which formed most of the ruling class now were Semitic and the first group among them came from Mesopotamia, there were others from northeastern part of Africa, etc. (you can research the initial crises of some of Ọmọ Ọwá Ọbas in Ekiti vs Oore of Ọtun). Majority of these groups didn't originally intermarried with the other groups they met on ground, they married from themselves until it wasn't possible again. The organised the region monarchically, expand and rule over Ulesun villages. They reshape some of the traditions pertaining to naming, circumcision, etc... Some great ones among them retook Ulesun greatmen's names.

Many groups came from present northern Sudan and Oromo region of Ethiopia. Some Phoenicians who had become Christians also came later through the Sea and joined up, reasons we have Morèmi and Èlà, ọjọ Ẹtì, Ọjọ Abameta and Aiku mixed up.
There was fusion of the religion of the first Semitic group with that of Ulesuns. The language of the the Ulesuns that was a mixture with Kemet, because of so many groups from kemet, also prevalent.

It's due to the above we have multiple oral tradition of our origin. We are one people now, very proud one! Most don't wants to really associate with anything Semitic because of the two new religions and their rivalry. It now depends on which history one believes or imposes on others... because some don't want to research anything but hold to just one of these origins, nothing more, nothing less...
