Concotion This refers to the kind of rice that can neither be classified as fried nor jollof. It is a combination of anything you
can lay your hands upon just to arrive at something edible. This is student's fast approach when there has been too much garri in the belly. I love concotion,sometimes its more delicious than all this fried rice and co.

Beans Nigerian students and beans are inseparable. Male students feel they love it
more than the girls but a trip to one of the female hostels will tell you otherwise. This is either eaten with bread, garri, yam or rice.
Bread and garri is the most popular combination.
Shoutouts to all 'Ewa aganyi' lovers.

Noddles Anyone who invented noodles totally had Nigerian students in mind. Hardly a day goes by without noodles in the belly of students.

Garri: This one has been saving the lives of Nigerians since university education began.
Some of them come to school every semester with at least half bag of garri to see them through the semester. Guys are more into the garri thing than girls.

Everybody loves garri,even Olusegun Obasanjo is not exempted.

Was scrolling between my stored images when my friend said there is a resemblance between them.

Sam Egwu was a former governor of Ebonyi State while Femi Adesina is the Special Adviser on Media to President Muhammadu Buhari.

What do you guys think?.

Do they really look-alike?

7. All Nigerians speak the Nigerian pidgin
The Nigerian pidgin might be a popular trend in Nigerian movies, but there are so many Nigerians who can actually speak fluent English without incorporating the
pidgin. Not all Nigerians speak broken English; in fact, those that speak in pidgin English actually do it on purpose and can actually switch to proper English if need be.

8. Nigerians are Love Machines
While there are a good number of Nigerians who are actually good in love making, there are also some Nigerians who are actually
poor at it. Being a Nigerian doesn’t come with love making lessons and those that perfect in the art learn it on individual terms.
The fact is, anybody can be a love making machine, regardless of where you come from, if you put some extra effort into it, and
there’s still a substantial number of Nigerians who are actually poor in love making.

9. Nigerians are Tribalistic
While tribalism may be rampant in Africa, Nigeria is not affected as much. The only thing that’s affected by tribalism is politics
but not the way Nigerians interact with each other. In fact, politics and tribalism have always been inseparable with most of the
African countries, let alone most of the European critics. There are dozens of small ethnic groups in Nigeria but the groups that
are always in political wrangles are the three major groups – the Ibo, the Yoruba and the
Hausa.

10. All Nigerians are giants – very masculine and huge bodied.
This stereotype is not only weird but also very absurd. Just like any other country, Nigeria has people of all sizes – both big and
small without anything special feature to look at. No country in the entire world is solely composed of same sized people and it’s even stupid to think that all men in Nigeria are big bodied.

To conclude, these are some of the
stereotypes that people hold on Nigeria but are actually not true. Nigeria is just a normal country with so many things that make it
special and superstition is not one of them.
It has never experienced genocide and it’s native are very friendly and welcoming.

When people talk about African stereotypes, the bulk of it generally points to Nigeria.
Nigeria might be one of the most popular countries in Africa but most of the stereotypes people hold over Nigerians only give a false impression about them.

Here is a list of the top 10 stereotypes on Nigerians that always not true:

1. Every Nigerian embraces Black Magic or ‘Voodoo’.
The whole world has a misconception about Nigeria and black magic. Most people think
that everything in Nigeria is run by juju – Nigerians black magic. People believe that Nigerian men sacrifice their souls and children to get riches by embracing witchcraft and sorcery. Well, this actually is
not true, let alone being close to the truth. Black magic may be a common trend in Nigerian movies, but not every single Nigerian has a hand in black magic. In fact,
Nigeria is one of the most religious countries in Africa and most Nigerians are either Christians or Muslims.

2. Nigerians are Uneducated
No one actually knows where this
stereotype came from since Nigerians embrace education just like any other African country. Parents value education and
they’d rather go without food than have their children not going to school.
Additionally, Nigeria has several renowned universities and boasts of having one of the best education systems in the world. The fact that someone met a single uneducated Nigerian does not in any way imply that all
Nigerians are not educated. The truth is, Nigerians value education and if there are some uneducated Nigerians, then they are only a fraction of Nigeria’s population.

3. Nigerians are into Advanced Fee Fraud (419)
Every Nigerian has been linked with advanced fraud – popularly know as ‘yahoo-yahoo’ scam or 419. But what people are yet
to understand is that one incidence of a fraudulent Nigerian does not make the entire Nigerian fraternity fraud. In fact, it’s
annoying to see how foreigners clutch their bag once they spot a Nigerian. Does this mean that all criminals come from Nigeria?
Or you’re way safer being in another country than in Nigeria? The truth is, Nigeria has been having several criminal cases of
late, but the number of fraudulent Nigerians is just a decimal percentage of the entire
Nigeria’s population; and Nigeria has always been at the forefront in the war against crime and corruption.

4. Nigerian people are Remote and Less Advanced
To start with, those that started this stereotype have certainly never been to Nigeria before and must be big fans of the
traditional Nigerian movies. But what these people are yet to understand is that movies
only carry a limited truth and the rest is entertainment. In addition to that, other countries too have ancient movies despite being well developed, and Nigeria cannot be
an exception on this. As a matter of facts, Nigeria is well ranked as one of the most developed countries in Africa; and has
everything you’d expect to see in a more developed country. Similarly, Nigerians don’t live with wild animals in the jungle as
depicted by those stereotypes, but instead have people that live the high-end life, middle class life as well as those that live on the low -slums or ghetto, just like any other country.

5. All Nigerians look alike
Asians and whites think that all Africans look alike. Well, that’s how Africans think about
Asians, more-so the Chinese, too. While these might be a common stereotype from people outside a particular race, it’s not true
in any way. In other words, Africans – more- so Nigerians, don’t look alike just like how
Chinese or whites don’t look the same. But for you to tell the difference between the
people from one particular race, then you have to spend some time with them before drawing a conclusion.

6. Nigerians are Naturally Volatile
The country might have been involved in several chaotic cases that made it unstable, but Nigerians are generally happy and
friendly people. Most of the people that have visited Nigeria before can sincerely attest to
the friendly nature of Nigerians.

Bad news always emanating from Benue state lately. If e no b herdmen e go b political assassinations nawa oo.

histemple:
Op I understand your concerns but then, I think some state Governors value the education of their indigent students over other things, hence the sacrifice.

If you are suffering this, it means your state has a governor that doesn't take education seriously.

My state governor is a lover of education. Non-indigenes pay higher in my state than indigenes but I'm just concerned about the saying that we are ''one nigeria'' abi no be so?

Femich18:
Rubbish..y not go to your state and study. Must u study in oda pples state and if you must den be ready to pay without complaining

Must you display your stupidity?

OP sharaap there joor,even in america, indigenes of a state are given preferential treatment over non indigenes...you Nigerians just make me sick you want everything to be either cheap or free what nonsense mentality...if you cant cope drop out and put your SSCE to use...u want cheap quality education indeed.....why not go to your state where ur an indigene and school there

Hey kid,have you eaten today?

It is unfair, unjust and a pure sign of disunity among ourselves as Nigerians, that because I'm not from a state and want to study there, I'm asked to pay higher fees than other students from that particular state.

Why is it so?

Let us discuss this properly because it is not helping our unity as a nation.

Veteran Actor, Movie Producer And
Director, Adebayo Salami Has Opened Up On How He Found Himself A Patriarch Of A Big Family Of Men And Women With
Interest In The Film Industry.

Arguably, head of a movie dynasty in Nigeria, his children have shown more than ordinary interest in the movie industry holding a lot of various
departments exhibiting expertise,
creativity and industry.

Blessed with 18 children, and 15
grandchildren, Adebayo Salami popularly known as Oga Bello in a chat with E24-7Magazine said polygamy has never been in his plan as a young man.
“I was so much in love with
my wife, you can imagine that
my life was such a predictable
one, I mean from the house to
the office and when I close at
work, I will go to Zaad Supermarket where I will pick
some items for my wife and
later go home for my dinner.
After that we go to the
cinema or theatre.

Though he has always loved theatre but it was a passion that grew on him and overwhelmed him.

“Surprisingly, my passion for
the theatre took a better part
of me and I had to leave my
job and joined the theatre
practitioners.

“It was there that fame came
and quite naturally, it came
with women who were great
admirers and you know, they
actually added value by joining the theatre group and playing significant roles. I didn’t plan my life to be a polygamist but fate brought fame and I found myself here.

Asked if he feels successful or fulfilled having many children who have stepped into his shoes.

“Honestly the success or
fulfilment in this circumstance,
is in the fact that all these
children come out well, morally and educationally.

They have brought me joy
unspeakable with their more
than ordinary interest in their
education. Maybe it would
have been the other way if
they had failed to be
educated.

Perhaps he deliberately lured
or encouraged them to go
into the film making industry.

“I didn’t plan to have them in
the theatre or filmmaking
business. I’m sure they must
have seen something
exemplary, something worth
emulating in my journey in life
that influenced them to follow
the path that I treaded in the
arts.

Coincidentally, his wife popularly known as Mama Ejide is a foremost movie marketer/ distributor in Ebipenjo Lane,
Lagos.

There are so many people on this thread now that do not know the nature of the people of Ekpan community in Delta State.

What you are reading is what the young ones (students) copied from their elders.

People from this community hardly travel. This is a community where you will see a man of 45 yrs who has never travelled out of Ekpan since he was born? How do you expect such person to behave properly?

They like to fight and kill themselves; majority are criminals! There's always one communal clash or the other everyday. Ask around, nobody even wants to rent a 2 bed room flat for as low as 5k per month in Ekpan.

Last Warning: If you stay in this community, leave their girls alone or else they kill you. If you are progressing in business, pack out of the community or else, they'll start to envy you; they might end up burning your shop! Fvck Newton! Fvck Baro!! Fvck Ekpan!!!

Do you stay in the community or closeby?

Another young and promising footballer lost.

The contest for the leadership of Nigerian football continued on Friday as Ambassador Chris Giwa and his faction took over the NFF
headquarters in Abuja.

This happened after a bailiff had served a court judgment from the Federal High Court Jos on the general secretary of the
federation.

Giwa walked into the Zone 7 premises of the NFF around 4pm despite the presence of a
police van that was meant to keep him and his faction out.
He spent about 30 minutes in the building and was granting interviews to media as
well as trying to take charge of
administrative duties before a detachment of policemen asked him to leave.

He was escorted by policemen who led him to the Divisional Headquarters, Wuse Zone 3.

The problems in the NFF reappeared on April 8 when a Federal High Court sitting in Jos,
Plateau State, ordered that the
administration of Amaju Pinnick vacate the NFF in favour of Giwa who is to take charge temporarily.

However, sports minister Solomon Dalung had pitched his tent with the Pinnick group who claimed to have filed a stay of execution of the judgment.

The minister had then placed the police on alert to block the take over the Glass House by the Giwa faction.

Fifa had in a letter threatened to ban the NFF from all international engagements if the court injunction was carried ou

A guy in my area got the shock of his life today, when his long-time girlfriend turned down his proposal and walked away on him simply becauuse the guy proposed to her in a market place,not even the area where gold or electronics or clothing materials were sold but close to where pepper,tomatoes and meat were sold.
She's been refusing to pick the guy's calls, nor reply his whatsapp messages and sms.
The guy has been the subject of laughter from people who witnessed the scenario.

Ladies and Gents, Is their anything wrong in what she did?
As a guy,can you propose to your girl in a market place?

And as a girl can you accept if your guy propose to you in a market place?
