Nairaland na wa for you o! Is that what you call pretty ?

How can you play 10 against 11 and still lose? The falcons didn't take their chances and couldn't keep a level head during the penalty shootout !
Well done all the same !

"The Hausa ethnic group is the largest in Niger, and the majority of the population (54.1%) belong to this group. The Hausa are one of the largest ethnic groups in all of Africa and are scattered across West Africa, with most making up the majority of the population in Nigeria, as well as Niger. The Hausa people in Niger speak the Hausa language as part of the greater Afro-Asiatic family and also speak French, English, and Arabic. Most Hausa people live in small towns and mostly raise livestock, work as farmers and conduct trade. The horse is a major symbol of the Hausa people, as it is closely associated with the aristocracy and their equestrian based culture." Source: worldatlas

It's not accurate to say hausas make up the majority of the population in nigeria. In fact no tribe alone is the majority in nigeria as no single tribe is up to 30 percent of the entire population .Also,fulani numbers are exaggerated for obvious reasons .

You can't compare people to bread . Your analogy makes no sense!

Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle ...

Do not think that I have come to bring peace on the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but. a sword


Luke 19:27
“But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.”

The difference between this and yours is that this is not a command ! Its not telling anyone to kill. Its telling a story with a lesson in it!

Morocco defender Nouhaila Benzina has made history by becoming the first player to wear a hijab at a World Cup.

The 25-year-old wore the Islamic headscarf as she made her first appearance at the tournament in her side's 1-0 win over South Korea.

The wearing of head coverings for religious reasons was authorised by Fifa in 2014.

Morocco are one of eight teams making their debut at this summer's Women's World Cup.

Benzina, who plays her club football in Morocco, is the first player to wear a hijab at a senior women's international tournament.

She was an unused substitute during her country's opening game against Germany, which they lost 6-0.

Why do these people have to bring religion into everything ? What does religion have to do with sports ?

White girls are white and clean in their pussy

As for black girls, no matter how light skin they may be, they always have dark or spotty pussy..

As for fûcking prowess, any girl from any race can be stallion in bed..

How is white pussy cleaner? You have a serious problem ! The vagina is an internal organ and on the inside which is where it matters they're all the same color . PINK! The problem is that nigerians like to pretend a lot when it comes to sex which is the reason for their attitude ... in my experience about 50 percent of nigerian girls will tell you they don't give blowjobs.Some of them act like its an abomination!..Even prostitutes sometimes do that . White people are generally more open minded about these things but there are nigerian girls who don't have such issues . Anyone who's been with akwa ibom girls will testify. The problem with nigerians is too much hypocrisy and too much religion . Unfortunately it doesn't make them honest or better people ! It doesn't apply to everyone but its common.

Your car's air conditioner draws power from the engine to operate, forcing it to use more fuel, impacting your car's fuel efficiency.

How much more? Its like .0.01 percent . Stop this poverty mentality !

Car ac does not use petrol. It uses gas for cooling and the belt of the ac motor is attached to the car engine by a cog which runs it while the engine runs. How will that consume petrol when no petrol goes to the ac? On the other hand driving with your windows up while doing 50kph or more actually saves petrol because there's more drag.

FTC...it's been a good and bad week.

How are southern Nigerians preparing for the war Northern Nigerians are nursing gradually.

Imagine Nigeria without the Northerners.

They are gradually sending repentant Boko harams to every crooks and corners of Nigeria.

Milking the country vigorously is not enough, they want to finish everybody patapata.

Egypt was powerful, but the Lord was the pillar of Isreal.


The hands of the Lord will soon be strong on them.

Many southern and middle belt nigerians are in denial . It is obvious whats happening but they would rather do nothing especially their so called leaders .

I think people should stop hating on DJ Cuppy . I think she has a good heart and its not a bad thing that her father is rich. I think she's a nice girl who's just looking for love. More love ,less hate .

Ellasure:
snow falls in Nigeria just for one day will lead to deaths for thousands if not millions of people.

reasons:

1. houses and house construction in Nigeria is for warm weather conditions and if you notice that European houses are double layered blocks with a little space in between trapping air that prevents the outside rooms temperatures are not the same as inside rooms temperatures.

2. rooms in Europe and elsewhere with snow weather make use room temperature heaters to warm trapped air in the rooms for circulation.

3 . a room temperature of @14 degree Celsius could be fatalistic in Nigeria to the wiping of very large parts of the Nigerian population overnight.

4. I learnt that in Jo's city most hotels and public buildings have heaters constructed with the building.

5. People living countries with snow falls tend to be more realistic and practical in their life endeavours and approach to living because they are very conscious of a period of months for little activities due to snow falls and people movements restrictions.

6. in Nigeria we are truly not that lucky to have warm weather all year round, it gives rooms to careless attitudes to doing things and procrastination. people procrastinate and government also procrastinate.

very big problems.

Well said . Don't mind all these ignorant people that are wishing for snow..they don't know that for six months nothing can grow .
Ive lived in europe and south africa before and it never snowed in south africa while I was there because it only happens once in a while . Why else would it make the headlines ? However its still freezing even without snow ....I used to wear 5 layers of clothing . Jos isnt that cold that buildings have central heating ...its just that most buildings don't have ac except hotels and banks and they hardly use the ac,
Come to think of it .... when it snows you can't survive outdoors for one night...it wouldn't be bad if snow were to fall in nigeria right now so it can kill all the herdsmen who have been killing nigerians.

Flathead8:
Our sins too much that's why e no dey snow for Nigeria

Honestly theres no economic advantage that snow and extremely cold weather brings. Truth be told if it were to snow in nigeria today,many people will die!

In the middle belt their greatest enemy is the fulani not igbo. ..especially in places like jos and southern kaduna.

Not too long ago this man was saying he's a biafran. What happened ? The fulanis wont agree to this and furthermore if the igbos go others will want to go also for example the middle belt....and its all because of the fulani. Most nigerians don't want to be in the same country as them!

antibullshit:
You've forgotten that the salaries is the uk are much higher than the salaries in nigeria by more than 9 times. A person who's considered well paid in nigeria doesn't earn up to the uk minimum wage ! The average nigerian household makes 2123 euros per annum {in 2022 its probably worse now) meanwhile in the UK its 43,434 euros that's more than 20 times. The lowest policemen in nigeria gets 50000 naira or less. Thats 600k per annum. The lowest policeman in the uk makes 24000 pounds per annum. If you calculate that by the current exchange rate ....its about 23.5 million naira annually which comes to around 1.9 million per month. Even the commissioner of police in nigeria gets less than that. That's just one example . If you compare the salaries in any field ,teachers,nurses,bankers, tv and radio presenters or even labourers they get much more than we get here for the same job. It doesn't matter if the cost of living is 9 times higher when the cost of living is 20 times or more higher .

I meant ..it doesn't matter if the cost of living is 9 times higher when the salaries are 20 times higher .

So this is based on the life of a cousin who relocated to nigeria briefly but is back in the uk to complete his masters. so we got to talking and this is the breakdown. so he had a studio apartment in osapa london lekki and total package including nepa light was part of service charge and lawma was part of it too, total package was 1.3 million annually. so this works out to in black market rate 1625 pounds a year. this works out to 32 pounds per week. and so in the UK the rent was 250 a week. the council tax ( their lawma ) is 20 a week and electricity is like 20 a week. thats 290 pounds a week compared to his lekki 32 pounds a week. so in essence in the UK his cost of living is 9 times what it is in nigeria. Isnt that amazing ?

Over here the fulanis are waiting for you and when they kill you they wont be arrested!
This is an isolated incident a the killer didnt go scot free. Here fulanis wipe out villages,rename them and live there and nothing happens!

You forgot the UK riots in 2011 also caused by police

Truthfully , Idara is an Akwa Ibom name

You can't force people to be in one nation it has never worked in the history of the world ...u can do it for 40 50 100 200 or even 600 years but they always get their freedom

This is true . I remember a video that was in circulation a while ago of a fulani woman dismantling re-assembling and loading an AK 47. Im sure she was never arrested . Imagine what would have happened if it was an igbo woman that did that !

But they are few. Like 1 in 20 girls.

This is another myth...... about how some tribes are better in bed than everyone else
It has nothing to do with tribe..the 1st girl I saw squirt was yoruba.
Akwa ibom girls are my favourite though...I wont lie...but it really depends on the individual at the end of the day

*Once again, it is Mr. Allen Onyema the IGBO man, CEO Air Peace with his Airline to the rescue! National Service it is!*

Thank you Allen Onyema, CEO,Air Peace for your continued goodwill to Nigerians! Each time Nigerians get into trouble outside the shores of this country U are immediately on hand to rescue them!
Nigeria and Nigerians do not hate themselves, it's the loud mouths using politics to eat that creates the noises and troubles. They capitalise on the mass illiteracy of the populace, brainwash them with sentiments of ethnicity and religion in order to continue to remain in power because they have no other business outside politics!
Now, nobody is tagging Onyema IPOB. Nobody is saying he is Biafra. We are all happy as he offers free service that FG is struggling with and can not still offer.
The Igbo is loved when she helps solve problems. She is hated when she seeks political office in Nigeria! Mr. Allen Onyema and Air Peace did it for stranded Nigerians in South Africa, Ukraine and now Sudan! Igbo man evacuated them free of charge. The more they are hated, the more the IGBO do good work for humanity! Same Air Peace and same Igbo man. From available statistics, the population of Nigerians in Sudan are more of the Northern Nigerian origin. We have more wealthy people in the North. In fact the richest African is from Northern Nigeria! Many rich men who have private jets come from Northern Nigeria but now they are quiet. Those who have private jets with abundance of money from the South West are quiet! But when it is elections season, they will remember that they are North or South West! Man's inhumanity to man conspicuously on display. Please where are the likes of Bayo Onanuga, FFK, Keyamo, Shehu Garba, the loquacious el-Rufai and his son including BAT who showed so much hatred in their tweets about Igbo in the Presidential Election? Where are they? They have all melted away like ice! People who have nothing to offer humanity but hatred! The Nigerian populace have also refused to learn. How do you place a man that helps you behind the one that brainwashes you just to steal your Commonwealth? Can we learn?

_Igbo Amaka! We love and we care!_

Well said but let me correct you on one thing...they do not have more wealthy people in the north....they have some of the wealthiest people but they are just a few...in fact,they have majority of nigerias poorest people ,the poor are very poor while the rich are extremely rich .

I like the size of the master bedroom but why must the toilet be visible? For such a house the kitchen is not that big and lastly I wouldnt buy a house from this dude very easily....hes an airhead! All he kept saying was. 'see space' and "I will never be poor" but he's already poor because only poor people talk like that!

Gbaghyi people sold their birth right long time ago, they are being maltreated and trampled upon in their own state, you can't be a guest in somebody's house and be bullying your host

Fulanis are the worst when it comes to fighting with their hosts. If you look into this matter you may find that fulanis are behind it. They control the hausas.

IyaebeTheGreat:
My Dad's friend and his family are in a mess now as the second wife (now ex) sued him over willing more than 90% of his properties and other valuable possessions to his first and second daughter.

It started long ago when he got married to his first wife(now ex) who had two daughters for him, they were childhood lovers and they lived perfectly.

However trouble started when he got a job in portharcourt and he met this other woman who came for IT , he discovered this woman is from our home town and he got more attracted and decided to keep her as a mistress, but the woman wanted more.

So, the affairs started over there and she was practically living with him while the wife stayed back home. Soon information started reaching his wife about this other woman but the wife always discard such information saying her husband isn't such type of person.

When the same information keeps reaching her, she decided to pay him an impromptu visit and boom she met this other woman there already acting as a wife, she confronted the husband and he told her he intends marrying her as his wife, she got angry and left back to base(home town).

When this other woman came home, she informed this man that she was beaten up by his wife's mother and siblings when she was passing by their house ( it was all lies) and the husband came home and arrested his wife (her 1yr old baby was in the cell with her as well), her mother and all her siblings and further went ahead to marry the other woman.

It was so messy that divorce was the only option they had left, he also forcefully took her two daughters from her and they were now under the care of the new wife. That was how the other woman became his wife and had three children for him( a boy and two girls).

After several years, the children are all grown, he gave them the best training and he endured so much bad behavior from this second wife to save face not until he caught her with charms inside a sack of garri that was sent to her by her mother and that was the last action that led to their separation. He married another woman making it the third one.

The third woman came and couldn't conceive because the second woman made a vow that as long as she remained married to her husband, she'll never bear children. Till today the third woman never had any child but she remained in her marriage childless.

Now, this man has come of age and decided to have a will on all his properties and other possessions. Surprisingly he willed over 90% of his properties and all other possessions to his first two daughters from his first wife leaving his only son from the second wife with only a landed property.

The second wife got hint of this and vow to deal with him by all means. She has sued him to court and involved his kinsmen but this man insists that that's the only compensation he can give to the first wife who never offended him in any way and maintained that he's not going back on his decision.

As at now family and friends are on his neck to have a change of decision considering the fact that his only son is very responsible and does not portray any form of threat or irresponsibility but he's obviously not listening and maintained that nothing can make him change his decision.

Please is he right with such drastic decision?

Is there sense in willing almost all you posses to a female child who will take such inheritance to another family?

How best will you handle such type of situation?

The man is still alive and theyre already squabbling over his property? Thats awful!

My favorite Harry Belafonte song is "new york taxi' its not one of his more popular songs....my parents had the album
RIP to another great man who has played his part and moved on!

Rufai had no business being a journalist.

So Rufai has no business being a journalist ? Is it because he wont kiss Tinubus ass for his supper like some of your favorites ? Rufai is non partisan. He speaks the minds of nigerians who want change! Unfortunately some people like you don't want nigeria to change because you're happy with the way things are which is why you're against what Rufai says ! Rufai is more well rounded and knowledgeable in a wide range of things than Seun.
