Nollywood actor, Ugezu J Ugezu, has stirred reactions after he shared his opinion on doing a DNA test to confirm the paternity of a child.

Taking to his Instagram page on Monday, February 21, the thespian noted that the issue of DNA has tore many homes apart. According to him, carrying out a DNA test on a child is not an African thing.

He noted that any child who calls an African man father is an African man’s child, and that was how our forefathers lived their lives and enjoyed peace of mind.

“A child who calls an African man father is an African man’s child. Period. This DNA thing is not really an African thing. A child born to an African man is the African man’s child. Our fathers held this belief and enjoyed peace of mind. This DNA stuff is tearing many homes apart and destroying many innocent children. In THINGS FALL APART, the mother Earth rose against Okonkwo for killing the child who called him father. THINK!”. He wrote.

You can as aware tell me that going to hospital for treatment is not African thing
Using electricity is not an African thing
Schooling is not an African thing
Using phone is not an African thing
Driving vehicle is not an African thing
Construction of road is not an African thing
Social media is not an African thing

Akinwuni Ambode last social outing was when the new turf wicket of the Cricket Oval in Tafawa Balewa Square Lagos, was inaugurated after a recent upgrade to advance the development of the game of cricket in Nigeria in January of last month.

The former governor had been keeping a low profile since he got chased out of power.

Is he suppose to look like me ??

ProfAmaben:
Benin people are just too daft. The Obas were known to sacrifice human beings during the peak of their powers. The last Oba in1897 was said to sacrifice over 5,000 people when the British were invading (after 1897, the Obas are just advisers and wield no power, an LGA chairman is higher). The Obas are worshipped as gods but trust me, they don't have any power more than you and I.

Britain burnt down the whole Benin in less than 4hrs, looted their palace and shrines including their highest god whom they sacrificed millions of humans to, if these Obas were spiritual and powerful, would such have happened? Benin people are docile and easily brainwashed.

Today, they are doing everything possible to restore the Benin monarchy back to it's useless glory (human sacrifices), they are giving a mere man that sleeps with numerous women and uses the toilet power over life and death. Such rubbish can never happen in any sane society.

Oba my foot, he's just a mere guy that's hustling just like everyone.

The Obas of Benin were said to have sold over 200,000 people as slaves to Portugal, they exemplified slavery to the core, they weakened all their surrounding neighbors except the Igbos obviously, I wonder what's so special about an irrelevant stool in 2022 that would warrant them being unable to face accusations and be punished for crimes against humanity.

In Benin tradition, the Oba never bows before any human, but he bowed before a woman here , Africans nor just get sense

I am not from Benin and I do not in anyway support evil. But in Africa we are trained to respect elders let alone those who are in authority. "Give honour to whom honour is due". You don't insult people's king like a mere piece of cloth, if you can't try that on your father, councilor, local government chairman , governor, president and others , why should you make a mockery of another man's king ?

Kingdom and authority are in a place for a reason . Respect that.

Be careful what you people refer to as miracle. The person's number is right there , all I expect of him is to return that airtime. I am a firm believer of the bible and Jesus Christ , and one of the ways He leads us is through conscience

As I said, Kane na senior man for this match. He's just running this game as his.

I haven't seen anyone control a game like this since Zizou.

He's trying to impress PEP so that for next season PEP can rescue him from Tottenham.
To me he's not playing for Tottenham but for PEP

They beat Man City in the 1st leg and now again ?
PEP abeg do something before Liverpool do you

Angelfrost:
Man City, watch your back.... Liverpool is seriously breathing down upon you.

Better not drop points to Spurs!!!

I love this form of Liverpool! EPL must not be turned to a Farmer's league.

It is already a farmers' league whether Man City win the league or not. PEP dominance is all over EPL. Liverpool will al ways try as usual , they are very good but Man City are more disciplined. They could win the league with a point or more.....they will definitely win the league no matter the outcome of their match against Tottenham

Ghostwon6511:
Look, again, you really don't know nor understand us the Edo and you keep confusing us with yourself !

Your monarch, is a fake monarch whose relevancy was made up by the British in order for him to serve the British interests.
Our Oba, is a true emperor, the British had to defeat his army in order to take over our land and create Nigeria.
Your fake monarch is under the authority of your local government ! Our Oba is under no such authority, it is even blasphemy to contemplate such an idea !

We are not you ! You have your particularities and we have ours !

I already told you that we maintain our treasures very well, nobody can take care of our ancestral belongings better than us.
So save your concerns for your white masters and your none existent ancestral treasures.

I thought I was talking to a learned person . I am not a man of stup*d argument. If you can't reason with facts , you don't worth my reply at all. Learn to be logical . Humans are higher than animals because they can reason . Use your sense in argument . Bye

Ghostwon6511:
I love how Benin ancestral heritage has suddenly become the belonging of every Nigerian and subject to every Nigerian's uneducated opinions.

1) these treasures belong to Benin kingdom, not to every Nigerian, and not to your "tribe" wherever you are from, these are the treasures of Benin empire !
2) Obviously they had value before the British stole them, indeed, they were decorating the palace of the Oba !
3)"the ones which weren't stolen", you seem to not understand that Benin city is not an ordinary town, what you had in Benin city is not the se as what you had in Abeokuta ! Benin city was the capital of Benin Kingdom ! Benin kingdom was a large and rich empire, it had treasures, among those treasures, you have these bronzes !
These are unique treasures, not existent elsewhere in Nigeria ! So there are no one's which weren't stolen !

4) some other Benin treasures had already been returned to the Oba of Benin in the 1930's: one of them is the traditional needed attire of the Oba of Benin and it is very well kept !

5) I understand that my ancestral heritage has no value to you, an alien to my culture and my ancestral country, just don't expand your ignorance by claiming to speak for me !

Your are deviating by raising a different argument entirely . No one argued that whatever they stole doesn't belong to Benin people . If I were to argue blindly with you , I would remind you that there is not part of Nigeria that is greater that the whole country, the constituents make up the whole. There is nothing like the sovereign Benin kingdom, but the Sovereign Federal Republic of Nigeria. I agree that every kingdom had their sovereignty, but that was in the past. In our current constitution, even your chiefs and kingdoms are now under the local governments , no matter the relevance you attach to it. The past is history , stop arguing with emotion because you are from Bini. The law of Nigeria takes hold of all

All we were talking about was about maintenance, I expected you to argue on this , not raise a different argument that you can't win

November24:
Which them? You are not a bini. You wouldn't have said such

Benin is part and parcel of Nigeria, same way is Nigeria a part of Africa. Benin problem is a Nigerian problem, same way Nigerian problem is an African problem

No emotion; Some of us were born and raised in Benin before you were born.
We've seen many years and experienced many governments/leaders than you in Benin so calm down, not just by reading but by experience. And whatever I said is peculiar to Africa as a whole .

It's a beautiful feeling but I think the whites would value it more than us. In fact they were the ones that even made us to know such thing exist because they took care of it over the years. Whites attach values to many things . The ones that were not stolen by the whites , where are they today? I guess dust has finished them . Africa lack maintenance culture . We only begin to value things when they are stolen

KiNg0G:
hello all.


Orphanage kids that grew up without getting adopted what happens to them when they've reached adulthood? like between the age of 20 to 25?

I mean they can't be living at the orphanage house for the rest of their lives?

Does the government give them money to start up a business or the orphanage body.

Please feed my curiosity.

You are going too far. Every Nigerian is in orphanage home , forget the fact that you are eithe paying rent or in your house. As long as you deprived from basic amenities like good roads, well equipped hospitals, better security and electricity, and so many others , you are an orphan. Even if you have money and can foot your bills you are still an orphan cos a friend of a poor man is a poor man. If you are rich in the midst of wealthy people you are actually poor.

Nigeria as a country is a big Orphanage home, her leaders have abandoned her children and would only check on her during the time of election

Now I just made you know that you are an orphan

To answer your question, if you have been surviving in Nigeria every other person will definitely survive

Optapidgin:
Former President Ibrahim Babangida in a recent interview gave a quite optimistic projection of the kind of person who should be Nigeria’s next president.

Politics in the country has come to the crossroads. More and more Nigerians have come to see the wisdom in statecraft. Better to have a president who helps bring food to the table i.e. earn enough money to provide the basic necessities for oneself and one’s family. There are some who still bend to the illusory preferential option for the kinsman. So, it’s merit Vs zoning.

Interestingly though, both sides of the divide have proponents who think that for the sake of fairness, equity, even for justice and such values that promote peace and order, an ethnic Igbo person should get the next turn at the presidency this time. This is the loudest, the most sober and sensible view. The influential Sultan, Muhammadu Sa’ad Abubakar thinks so from Sokoto. The pragmatist reformer and current Governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El Rufai likewise agrees that it should be the turn of the southeast now.

When the Igbos have had their shot, then Nigeria can evolve from turn-by-turn presidency to merit as the overarching criterion.

Thus on the whole, there seems a fair consensus of opinion that the presidency goes to the Igbos this once. So what then?

The problem actually is the incapacity of the Igbo political elite to inspire consensus around a viable candidate and then throw their weight behind him or her.

Owelle Rochas Okorocha has shown remarkable imagination and innovation in his declaration to run. A former governor and presently a senator, he has had a more than successful run in business and entrepreneurship. Plus he has shown a milk of kindness in his widespread charities and beneficent foundations. No matter what one may say, Rochas is not perfect but he has the pedigree suitable to do the job.

To recap, there is a growing political concurrence that it is only fair for the presidency to be zoned to the southeast. Even those who in principle would prefer merit to the option of zoning believe that if for no other reason than the sake of equity and fair play, someone of Igbo ethnicity be president this time. After that, all parties can throw their doors open and allow for only the criterion of merit and suitability.

One standard ex-president Babangida proffered for the next commander-in-chief was the candidate’s familiarity or association with diverse parts of the country. Okorocha has that in the bag. With deep roots in the north and eloquent in Hausa, he has roots and association in and with almost all parts of the federation.

Where it is not consanguinity, then it is business ties or some form of interrelation. In fact, a lot of the arguments made against him prove to be reasonable as to why he should be the next president.

Rochas is not different from Tinubu. Just as Tinubu sold Lagos to himself and till date he decides on what happen in Lagos , to the extent he can fire incumbent governor if he doesn't dance to his tune , Rochas also willed almost all Imo state properties to himself. Later on, he felt it nice to handover the state to his son in-law

These two men are just the same , no difference. If Tinubu gets hold of Nigeria, this country wil be mortgaged forever. Everything will forever be decided by him even when he's not in power.

The little difference is opportunity, loyal boys and ethnicity. The Igbo do not like to rally along just one person, in their words, "every man is a king in his own house", No national leader. Whereas the Yorubas have national leaders. If you dare criticise Tinubu, most Yoruba will come after you while if you criticise Rochas, na only his family members go defend am .

helinues:
Take them to court quickly, one of their members close to the royalty family or leaders fit don donate the land for the church without the consent of others.

Na so we woke up one morning, the big flat big screen has disappeared while the bro we were staying with then who was a member of Christ embassy was no where to be found. Mixed thoughts about being robbed or bad things happened as the bro was unreachable.

When he came back, he said he is the one who took the Tv to the church cos they asked them to donate what they cherish most to God...

That church get format for mouth gan

Do you read at all? You see topic you just rushed to comment
"One of their church members fit don donate land.."
Didn't you read that they are acquired the land through legal means and they got relevant documents to their claim.

JohnSin97:
All these affiliate marketers and their lies

Remain there with your doubt. I have affiliate marketers that earn up to 75k/month from me . Some of them , I have never met them one on one .
Even in Lagos market there are some Igbo men that earn 15k per day and guess what?? They don't have shops nor goods. They simply market other peoples goods.I think I have seen this post on nairaland or Yabalefftonline. I started my own business like that . This Buhari regime dealt with me till I started marketing other people's goods and within few months , I could eat very well , salary was being saved and later on , I started my own business . And right now, people are earning from me .

I made a post yesterday concerning my missing brother and how I was told on phone that they will burn him

https://www.nairaland.com/6974692/vigilante-held-brother-enugu-threatened

Well to the glory of God he was found in police station this morning with wounds all over him. The police said that he walked into the station by himself and has not alter a word since then. I told my parent to take him to hospital and he's receiving treatment.
By the grace of almighty God, I believe he will regain his senses and talk

I want to use this medium to thank everyone that said a word of prayer to my brother, lot of nairalander even called to check on him. Nairaland is a great family. I pray Almighty God will bless you all

Congratulations and thank God for the preservation of life. I pray for his quick recovery

HRprof:
I saw this post on LinkedIn and I felt I should share to encourage everyone is a testimony on grass to grace.

I went for an interview at UBA. Immediately I stepped in, I felt defeated already. You know why; I wasn't having the best outfit. My shoes were filled with dust like a man that works in the quarry. My socks, hmmm! A story for another day. I sat down quietly waiting for my turn. While sitting, I was praying, 'casting and binding,' in tongues.

Lord, do it for me! Lord do it for me!! I sent a message to Adebayo Adegun (The Impacter) on WhatsApp and asked him for some interview tips. He gave me some pointers. I digested them all.

When I got into the interview hall, I saw two recruiters (a male & a female). The male made a mockery of my outfit. He asked, "Bros, na farm you come from? This your outfit no be for here o. �

I giggled. You can't shame the shameless. I stylishly told him I came in my best clothes. And that's why they must employ me so I can be a fashionista like Tony Elumelu. We both laughed and the interview started. I answered all the questions thrown at me. Thanks to Adebayo. At some point, they had no question again. So we started talking about my childhood days.

The interview I almost gave up on turned out to be my best. And you know why; the interviewers made it easier for me.

God bless them wherever they are. I left knowing I would be called for the job. A month later, I was called for the role. But I had already gotten a remote job as a copywriter with an American company. So I politely turned it down.

It's amazing how our life can change in a second. This picture reminds me never to give up. From feeling like a failure in 2017 to getting an international job.

And now, I have created a Copywriting Academy in 2022 to help ten people leverage the internet.

No matter what life throws at you, never give up. You are always a second away from your breakthrough. Keep believing!

Nedangel:
So this girl ( 15 years) was brought to my house by my wife after my wife gave birth a year after. My wife said she really needs someone to help her, but I kicked against it. After much pestering from my wife, I agreed.

I sooo much have feelings for this girl.
I have fought it so much. Some times my wife is out/ travels and am alone with her and kid when am back from work. But this strong feeling comes up and I feel like having her. Most times I find my self thinking about this girl. It's to the point that my chest pains me.. When I ask my wife for s*x, Most times & always she says she's tired.

Please it's really affecting me, it's eating me up. I need suggestions/ advice from my well meaning Nairalanders. Thanks allot.

That is lust . Don't think with your di*k . Use your head. Having such thoughts towards 15 years old girl means you can do anything against female gender irrespective of their age. Person like you wil molest your daughters. Your wife trust you that's why she brought that girl into that house. Don't betray that trust because of stupid emotion.

The baby receiving treatment in a hospital

The offenders should be flogged to death. I can't imagine flogging a child that is just a year old plus. What kind of mind do you have ? What was the offence of the child..that he played with water and sand? Is that not a child's behaviour ? This country is really becoming so annoying. Buhari dey do hin own with high food prices and all manner of taxes and right now this woman and her son are adding to it
