You mean NTA, Trust TV, Impact TV, MBC 2, etc working? I'm not talking about Satview channels, some other Ghanaian channels on Türksat or the Arabic MBCs (that just came back), we're talking about main Nigcomsat channels.

Hello all

Accord 2013/14 or Camry 2013/14

Cc: nurey
If it 2014 model of the two, I will personally take the Camry, although I also like the Accord for its aesthetic in and out, its driving-feel, etc. However, the Camry is quieter/smoother, more fuel efficient and durable. They are both reliable choices.

That river have its source in Oyo state and flows directly into the Atlantic ocean. Why it's named River ogun is what I don't understand.
Ogun State is named after the river rather; so also the areas around its source in Oyo Stare is called Oke-Ogun

Ogun kill dem?? Hmmm words have power. Anyways invisible creepers lurk in large bodies of water and can hamper a professional swimmer. You need to acknowledge the gods in those water bodies before you take a swim
There is difference between Ògùn(River) and Ògún(god of war/Iron). People curse using Ògún (god of Iron/war) just as they use Sango(god of thunder) not Ògùn (river).

Yoruba is very very tonal: Oko, Igba, Igbo, Ogun, Alaba, Alausa, Osan, etc can mean many many different things.

Mr Man akure is not ekiti Kingdom pls, just like that ijesa man is trying to force akure to be part of his ijesa which is not possible
Owa obokun will not even say akure is ijesa, the whole of akure as of today is bigger than the whole of ijesa land so if we want to have a so called state with ijesa due to land akure should embrace ijesa.

Akure was never part of ur Ekiti go and read the first historical book about akure written in yoruba by Pa Atandare a man born around 1890s said akure kin se ekiti ra ati ra. The British only merged akure with ekiti because of administrative convenience not more nothing less and in 1946 wen akure separate from the British they realized it was an error to merged akure with ekiti, I know this because I'm a prince and I grow up in the Deji's palace so I have those documents in the palace archive. Akure is Akure not Ekiti abeg. The present akure is the second biggest or largest after Ibadan.
Your Akure was historically Ekiti. Putting -Ekiti after every Ekiti town and village was something recent. Most Ekiti towns and villages in present Kwara and Ondo states don't even use it

Pls mention the times the Deji attended the pelupelu meeting the Deji then Oba Adesida1 only attend ekiti oba meeting once or twice and he complain to the british resident in akure than that he is not Ekiti and can't attend meeting of ppl he is not part of historically and the R.C and District officer that time begged him to attend until akure was removed from Ekiti in 1946. The Deji never attend any yoruba obas meeting in 1937 as ekiti Oba NO he was addressed as Deji of akure no Ekiti so why will u say akure is ekiti what nonsense is that even the ewi of Ado will not say such rubbish. Wen oore of Otun Otun Ekiti was merged with ilorin Emirate does that make him ilorin because the British merged Otun with ilorin NO so akure is not ekiti. Go read the first book written in yoruba by Pa Atandare about akure 1930s , he said akure kin se Ekiti ra ati ra

You lied there, what Akure is doing now was what Efon king did to their king. Tell me part of your culture, dialects, food, erekesan market, egugun, etc that's different from that of Ekiti. Everything in Akure is Ekiti. Even Idanre shares both heritage of Ondo and Ekiti. You may now want to call yourself ìjèsà, Ado-bini, chose to be new group or whatever but you were part of Ekiti confederation. History doesn't lie because of present arrogance or pride that came about because your place was chosen as provincial headquarters over Ondo, courtesy of the same Ekitis.

"...in the Ekiti Confederation, Deji Adesida was greatly missed when he pulled out of the agreement. He opted out because he could no longer tolerate Alaaye Adeniran of Efon Kingdom's humiliation and recalcitrant attitude, who during discussions did not value his age and rank. Oba Adeniran was said to be a dictator who was pompous and arrogant. A war of words, apparently over traditional seniority as descendants of Oduduwa, broke out between the aged Deji and the youthful Alaaye. The former took exception to the latter's arrogance. He warned Alaaye against power's arrogance, saying: "What you approached with a big wooden spoon is the world of honey that we elders try to lick with our finger." In years to come, Alaaye's youthful exuberance led to his waterloo.

When Deji Adesida returned to Akure, he informed the resident of the incident between him and the Alaaye and convinced him to carve Akure and the surrounding area out of Ekiti land. The resident compelled him to do so and the chord was cut."

You don't know akure history Mr man obviously u Re only saying things u read online but not akure history and all those lies written by ekiti writer all in the name of they are jealous of akure cos they want akure to still be part of them after the rubbish mistake the british made by merging akure with ekiti
Tell us correct history of Akure. There's no sub-group of Yoruba called Akure. So, you want to tell me that Iju, Ijarẹ, Igbara-Oke, etc are Akure?

Believing that it's Yòrùbá is as a result of anglicised Lagos dialect. It's actually Yorùbá in Central, Oyo and other dialects.

Politics / Re: Charles Soludo Call For Lagos Boycott, Frivolous: by Alba3: 8:56am On Jun 27, 2023
OfoIgbo:


One thing this guy doesn't know is that, if Anambra people move in droves to the south east, it will affect the population of Lagos to an extent, which reduces the huge market that Lagos is.
If the other south easterners relocate to the south east, it will further reduce the market pull of Lagos, thus making it less lucrative for business establishments to set up.

If the SSners in Lagos also move their businesses to the SS, Lagos will immediately revert to Abeokuta, with many federal investments.
The gravitational pull of Lagos, as a business capital will be gone for good.

Of course, we all know the guy is a hireling of Sanwolu and Tinubu, who want to avoid any backlash following the xenophobia and tribalism that has been introduced in the Lagos political arena.

If Anambra people heed the call, it is likely other southeasterners will follow suit.

While I am not a fan of Soludo, following his anti-Obi rants over the past few months, one thing I know is that Soludo will be wise enough to develop a space or a city, possibly even a coastal city at Oseakwa, that can comfortably host a seaport, allowing the traders to bring their goods directly into Anambra.

I haven't seen or read the small prints of the Soludo call, but I will advice that he encourages Anambrarians to move their HQs to the southeast, thus ensuring that quite a good chunk of their tax responsibilities, are paid into the Anambra state government coffers. They can still maintain satellite shops in Lagos.
What are you people still waiting for then? Just move at once.

The ball is in your court to have everything you seek even Biafra! When you moved during June 12 crisis, no single fellow begged you to come back. Just move and stay back and let us rest. The pressure you're putting on SW infrastructure and allocations is extremely too high. Leave and let our youths have space please!

I am loving this.
They should work on South West dams too.
They should also connect It to Abuja and Kogi bcuz the flood there can b used
I think Ekiti as the smallest state in the South West has more than 5 massive dams in Ikun, Ado, Egbe, Itapa etc. with another new one being constructed in Ogbẹsẹ. The problem isn't dams but distribution.
These dams in these states are also wonderful tourist attractions

Politics / Re: How Top Military Officers Pressured President Tinubu To Drop Nuhu Ribadu As NSA by Alba3: 3:16pm On Jun 16, 2023
Gr8amechi:

This idea doesn't make any sense.
If we must advert any future coup we must adopt the USA system, the leadership must be demilitarised.

The position of NSA isn't a war position it's a tactical and a very intelligent position, being a military person doesn't even make you more suitable to advice the president on issues of national security threat than a civilian who is a security expert.

Tinubu must redesign our military to be similar to the USA.

Pull military out of Abuja and raise DSS to become the highest security agency in the country.

For me the NSA should even be coming from DSS or NIA.

being a military general doesn't make you an expert in security matters, you need to see some of them speak

We have had military general as NSA back to back for over 10 years how has our security fared?

The military are trained for maximum force.

If I were the president I will reorganized the security council.

Each military unit will have a secretary which the military top chief reports to.

Have a NSA from a top intelligence unit.

Revamp DSS to focus on protection of the president and vvip personalities alone.

Reorganize police and turn the current police structure into state police.

Collapse the civil defense into state police.

Then established a federal intelligence agency which will be responsible for intelligence gathering and investigation of high profile cases, cyber crimes etc.

Unit custom and immigration into federal board guard.

Remove military completely from Abuja and the only people who should have access to the president should be civilians.


Revamp our laws to bar the military from having any dealings with any civilian and only to be used for maximum aggressive and force enemies.
The NSA during Abacha was a retired policeman and he performed better than the recent ones.

We've had two retired policemen as NSA; also a retired Colonel. Ribadu is going to perform that function as Special Adviser, Security to the president. That's Tinubu's style.

I don't think any Yoruba person care whether you're Igbo, Igbo-edo or Urhobo-Igbo. If you want to form your Biafra today today, they still don't care! So put your Emotional Blackmail In Your Pocket!

God has really blessed Yoruba that they can be on their own without any single minority or their land. You can always form a new multi-ethnic country as Igbo or Biafra; this has always been what you long to have for a long time. Ko kan ayee!
