ORIENTATION101:
is that the reason why your state remains glorified village since its creation in 1991

And yours camp of a state rem a chicken coop and sewers since creation of the world?

Chai! Sense will not keep me.

ORIENTATION101:
hateful bigot , you couldn't mention how Yoruba has been undeveloping your hole.
Like Edo was created in1991 Yorubas have collecting their funds in order to ensure Edo remains a primitive state

Lol. Over-developed, over-educated and over-sophisticated skull miners are not benefiting from your "Tokyo" grade development.

Eko had to be taken over by Edo, named, managed and given an Edo monarch & high chiefs to even develop. It's now the pride of Yoruba people. The likes of you from Osun & Oyo hamlets now call it home. Our friends from across the Niger rightly call it "No man's land". Since we Edo are civilisers, not land grabbers. We only took bits of the Island for our sons: Eleko, Obanikoro, Eletu Odibo and others.

OK. Very good. But hypocrites won't like it.

May her soul RIP.

There are so many good things Jonathan did while in office. He is truly an educated and liberal person, God bless GEJ.

Yesterday I watched on TV him and Buhari travel together to Mali for the peace keeping, he truly plays politics without bitterness.

Jonathan is way too urbane for Nigerian politics.

Our politics is agbero business. In 9ja a gentleman is seen as weak. So we have a country where houses of assembly and NASS members engage in fisticuffs and use dangerous weapons within the hallowed chambers, scaling fence and barbed wires for dear life.

In 50 years or more, maybe people like Jonathan will have a place in Nigerian politics.

ORIENTATION101:
I know I will find you here. Even the topic that doesnt relate to yorubas , you bigoted mind will still mention Yoruba's.
Is Yoruba did one that is collecting allocation that underdeveloped the hole you came out from

Lol. That "hole" was recently described by UK as more advanced than most parts of the West/Europe centuries ago already.

It's no news that those Northern immigrants into Yoruba land who now call themselves Yoruba are the problem of Nigeria. Those who accepted being named deceitful, untrustworthy (Yoruba).

My part of it is smart enough to prefer Ado-Akure than Yoruba.

SW always caused problems for Nigeria, directly or indirectly. Whether Awo versus Akintola crisis that first ripped Nigeria apart causing state of emergency in Western Region, Western media egging on Buhari to overthrow Shagari because Awo lost to him, his folks betraying MKO for power, maligning GEJ due to tribalism, manipulating Oshiomhole to cause havoc in Edo all forms of poo over the decade, etc.

Notable Northern people like Lamido Sanusi and others have correctly fingered Yoruba elite for these atrocities.

While Yoruba masses like to worship one corrupt "leader of Yoruba nation" or the other, those leaders siphon both yours and my money and create millions of agbero, skull miners, one chancers, one million boys, robbers and other criminals.

Tflex01:
Lol... Gibberish.

Well, by 6pm tonight go through this thread again and see. Check those who rubbish this man and where 90% come from in Nigeria.

About 13 years, registered for 9 years, is enough to understand how tribal bigotry works on NL.

Wait and see how SW people licking Tinubu's yansh will invade this thread and unleash vitriol on this man.

A man who knows Oshiomhole more than Tinubu and all SW people.

Since oshi omo Ole is their slave they will defend him.

My only surprise is that Nigeria is not in far more anarchy. Because the way the elite loot, pillage and rape the country in broad daylight is quite impossible to get one's head around.

IamPatriotic:
Great move, but it shouldn't be the end of the probe, Nigerians want to see a logical ending of the probe, where people who are found wanting would be proscuted and sent to Kuje if they're guilty as presumed.

Which good move? Aso Rock Clinic has no paracetamol or plaster according to Aisha Buhari. What happened to the billions?

Neither Aso Rock nor MDAs are trustworthy. Is not the same Nigerians that work at Aso Rock?

More centralisation is no solution.

About time we got people with a track record of good anti-corruption, rapid development/sustainable development and competence in. From abroad. Singapore, Australia and Canada are good Commonwealth countries with some shared colonial history, English as official language BUT no colonial master baggage.

Otherwise move control of NDDC to a church, synagogue, temple or anywhere, so long Nigerian "goats" are in charge, our yam is not safe.

Kanuri from Borno area, perhaps related to Sanni Abacha.

Especially in the green attire picture.

Well a poor man should certainly not do some of the above. If you have dough it won't matter much.

Otherwise the other points just show how petty some girls are. With bad manners to boot. Something most can hide as long as money flows.

Lol.

Zombies, I throway salute o.

See as una handwork dey fine. 6% tax on rent is truly next level. Sadly many zombies na squatters with their parents. They won't pay or collect rent.

I hope dem include face-me-I-slap-you for the tax too. Make e for affect some few zombies that can afford rent, most likely to live in passage house one room.

Poverty is not a crime. But to choose to remain in poverty as a zombie by voting in a blind govt, is worse than a crime.

Etinosa1234:
Surprising how this hasn't passed 10pages

Because it's not about the so called "major tribes".

This has been our argument here for years. That Benin SW people say had no empire, European records since over 500 years old show otherwise.

Envy and bad belle won't let them take it to front page. Those of us who visit these museums across countries in the West see these Benin art works and how popular they remain even after 100 years of display.

EmzyT:
At 24 you're not yet matured? This one na till Jesus Christ come again she go mature oo... She Don use you Catch Cruz finish, now she wan Settle down she come dey Meet you Truly you really dey show this girl say Na only She be the girl for you for this Earth.. You would've forgiven her but would NEVER want to have anything to do with her anymore not to even talk of dating her so she would live in regret for treating you the way she did.. That experience with you alone would've taught her how to trade carefully with people

Well, What do I know sef!!!!

proxillin

OP you already made a mistake. By dating without fully forgiving her.

I had a condescending colleague at work many years back. . She was full of herself, arrogant and bitchy. I had a chance to seriously put her in her place one day. She began to know more about me through other people. Babes prettier and smarter than her were my very dear, friendly and lovely colleagues too. Then she realised that she was actually nobody. Suddenly she began getting close, bringing food for both of us. I had to begin refusing her food. At times going hungry even, claiming to have eaten already. Just to avoid eating her food.

I
She did not officially apologise, but I knew her food was an indirect apology. I forgave her. But then she began amorous moves. When it got too much I had to tell her that I didn't have any feeling for her. That I value her friendship. She lost weight and looked sick for weeks. She ended up not even greeting me. Luckily I was on my way out of the job. I never toasted or have any desire to.

I could not even fathom sleeping with her. Not even to exact my pound of flesh. So great was my initial dislike for her and her behaviour. Even though I forgave her, dating was too big a thing to even contemplate.

At OP, while dating, condom could have burst and she gets pregnant, what then? Have a child with a woman you still partly loathe?

Men need to be more principled.

Let her go if you still harbour resentment against her. Because you will probably spill it one day.

If you were truly in love, what she did years back won't matter. Some girls publicly slapped and poured drink on their toaster and still ended up marrying.

Most of those who have internet access and vote online have no PVC. Their votes begin and end online.

Even if the poll puts Obaseki ahead at 70% I won't advise him to rely on it.

In fact no candidate should rely on it.

allcomage:
I think its the tradition in Igbo land if you don't pay dowry on a lady no matter how many children you get,the woman is a girl friend and the children can be taken back by the woman's people if they wish. Marriage is a religion in igboland it has really propelled Igbo to being focused and determined on their endeavours as there are no girl friends, mistresses and children rented apartments for .

Oh boy nor generalise o.

An Igbo Prof rented my aunty's house/nearby for his Igbo oyinbo pepper girlfriend. Because of the age difference we believed for years that he was actually a blood uncle as they pretended to be related.

Moreover we all knew the boys she dated and believed were the only boyfriends at various times while the prof was already paying her rent.

We only worked it out when the prof discovered she has other guys and a fight broke out one evening. Though they were arguing in Igbo the body language and English words thrown in showed. Some Igbo neighbours listening also confirmed. Only then did the sister living with her gave us the full gist.

Nice that the insurance paid up. But the formula nor too work for me. At 2.5 to 5m should have been in trust until the child is 18 or 21 years old.

Anybody, including a parent and other relatives can be reckless with money. 3 to 4m will educate the child up to 1st degree if well managed. So some millions should have been kept away to give her as an adult.

I also wonder if disclosing the sum publicly won't endanger the family.

Rip to the players.

Things that do not even happen in a zoo happens in Nigeria.

I mentioned a while back how some law students lost their lives those days Fashola was still a student there.

It's terrible.

RIP.

gregyboy:
Benin in ancient times were horrific,the British were always greedy people

Two great empire meant themselves and clashed the strongest prevailed benin never knew how it felt to be weak or loose a war, but all thesame both empire of today are shadows of itself nobody reigns forever tho

This important thread about black Civilization at a time Europeans thought we were mere savages is still on page one.

If it was a thread by an envious Nigerian from a history twisting tribe saying Benin had no empire, it would have many pages by now. Many gloating and posting denigrating comments.

Such a thread about independent and objective people describing of light of black innovation and advancement centuries ago will piss off many bigots.

But truth is like pregnancy. You cannot hide if for ever.

MrThisandthat:
When will Nigeria ever be respected..

When we start respecting ourselves.

mcdokwe:
They needn't have bothered.

The press release is too long and many Nigerians lack patience for such long reads.

I wonder. How many people read more than a few paragraphs? Attention span is too small nowadays.

It's mostly older people who still buy newspapers.

Rip.

Is it because dogs use mouth to bark that they call it Baki?

Nice thread. Interesting language.

In the words of ogboyabon
Edo currently is in a state of higihaga kunkun katum..

That's all..

Igbo Wetin bikonu? . It is Hon. Patrick Obahisgbon AKA Igodomigodo.

Please do not commit an infinitesimal crinkum crankum of a nebulous quagmire visa a viz an indisputable erratum in your attemptum ab initio.

Oduok:
I am beginning to believe that granting southern Nigerians a separate country will be to the disadvantage of southerners. The southerners are terrible to her people. Most times we wish Britain had not hand Nigeria to Nigerians. It might be worse when Southern Seccession is granted to southerners.

Well the Northerners still select who runs NDDC. Clearly not the best Nigerians run Nigeria. Awo never ruled, Amino Kano never ruled, Maitama Sule never ruled, etc. They worked under incompetent leaders.

At least if divided, Niger Delta, SW, SE and so on won't blame FG any more. We will now hold those closer to home to account.

95% of people in ND do not know what NDDC does. ND was not created after a referendum by ND people. It's just another FG quango MDA like all the other foolish bureaucracy in Nigeria.

If NEPA and other authorities do not work, which magic do you think will make NDDC work? Or

The head and system are rotten.

davidnazee:
No part of Delta state will join Biafra.. If any Delta Igbos want to be part of Biafra they can take a canoe and paddle across the river niger to the east. The geographical area will never be part of biafra..

Abeg nor kee person with laughter jor.

Nigeria is not working. So if Biafra wanna go, fine. If they stay fine too.

But River Niger is the natural boundary. No Inch of the 6 South South States will join them.

DemonInvoker:
Is it not joblessness.I had to also go and look at her profile.
How does one go about looking up every profile with pink letters attached to it?

Lol.

Philuv007:
Babe u are extremely beautiful and charming. I will love too meet u

Hmmmm........this your method na direct one o.
Is she Ibadan babe?

hardbody:
Edo and Warri no dey carry last. Edo actually usually leads in most things, how they yielded to Lagos state is still a surprise to most of us

Edo result looks like combined results for Saturday & Sunday. I was surprised that Edo reported no cases at all on Saturday. A atate cannot report double digit cases for weeks and suddenly none at all. Perhaps omitted and now added. I cannot put such past Nigerian govt bodies. I fully expected a high figure like this.

If not a spoof, it might actually work better.

People fear juju more than anything.

Nice.
