So you see your wife going to gossip with your little boy in tow. What happened to social distancing? What's the point of the lockdown?

Health if more important to whatever sexual fantasy is going in your or SIL's head.

Would you allow your biological sister wearing that cloth in your house? If not tell her to wear something else. That she's a nature lady that needs to maintain modesty now. If she does it again, tell her in her sister's presence.

Also observe if she wears that same cloth when her sister is at home. Or if she changes into it once her sister leaves the house.

Ramsay Nouah was born in Lagos to Israel father and Yoruba mother ( from Ondo town in Ondo state). Be guided.

Abeg do not tell me what I know. Ramsay was born in Benin and his mother is from Owo, not Ondo town. Although both are in Ondo State.

Growing up in Surulere doesn't mean he was born there. People put different places of birth on record in Nigeria, often for political reasons or to avoid tribal discrimination.

Some just put the town they processing their first international passport as their place of Birth.

They just quickly do affidavit there instead of travelling hundreds of kilometers to their actual place of birth. I know dozens of people with official Lagos place if birth but actually we're born in Kwara, Osun, Oyo, Kogi, Rivers, Abia, etc. And get stuck with it.

Even in the days Oluwole people were very active, it made more sense for people in a hurry to process documents putting Lagos.

I know Owo and Benin like the back of my hand. Do your research properly. Haba!
I have nothing to gain from wherever he was born.

That's good, if it works on monkeys, it'll most likely work on humans too.

BTW, where are our micro biologist professors and medical researchers. What type of vaccine should we be expecting from them?
Our leaders, how much have you invested in developing our own vaccine, abi na siddon dey look, dey expect from other countries we sabi?

After they will say oyinbo want to experiment vaccine with black people.

But after oyinbo have experimented on themselves and produced the vaccine, we will
be crying that they are racists for not giving us for free after going to them with a begging bowl.

Better don't be a beggar, be serious to do our own things meticulously and not have to rely on oyinbo.

Army SOLDIERS
Navy SEAMEN
Air Force AIRMEN
Police OFFICERS

Just say it that way.

Navy and Air force are soldiers too. They are all fight in war.
I wrote in the context of the guy I was quoting.

Not all are seamen are Navy.

There are commercial seamen too. Not even all merchant Navy

There is even navy air corps these days. The boundaries are becoming blurred increasingly.

Youngjohnosas:
it's really annoying, I have lived in several states across the Geo political zones of this country and have noticed Edo is one of the most calmest state, they just write out of ignorance.


I dated one who said she heard several ill stories about Edo but we dated for over two years and she never saw any sign of what she was told around, when she even opened up about her family situations, the several spiritual battles her family where facing then I was amazed because they were facing more what they even accused us of.

My brother I have been close to various people even from other African countries. All believe to have various problems of that sort. All those going to T. B. Joshua church for deliverance come from across Africa.

I met a girl from South South schooling in Benin. She claimed there were too many witches in Benin. She later admitted that she had not made friends with any Benin person. And frankly has never had any problems with Benin people. But all her friends were from other states. Even her Benin land lady has been very nice. Quizzed what she based her views on, she had no reason.

She graduated and later found a decent job in Benin

My impression was herself and friends she made came to Benin with their prejudice. As friends they re-enforced each other's prejudices. Keeping them from mixing with or even getting to really know Benin people.

Later she will claim to have lived in Benin for 10 years. And her prejudices might sound convincing to people outside.

kinglee007:
And the pictures you're seeing are? Wait lemme guess, PHOTOSHOPPED right. Na God go help us.

.

Army is different from Air Force.
Army: land soldiers
Navy : sea soldiers
Airforce: Air soldiers.
All are military. But all are not Army technically.

Youngjohnosas:
OGA stop talking nonsense, what's this cry about Edo,Elections here have been the most peaceful, I have never seen a high profile politician die here mysteriously, it's just the normal squabble that's is obtainable everywhere.

u don't have to spill trash about anyone to feel relevant ,politicians in Nigeria are diabolical, Your state of origin which I don't know of is worse off.

You dey mind those people?

How many bushes littered with sacrificial human bodies do they find in Edo?

Those who shout diabolical stuff about Edo have never lived in Edo. I have seen people from other tribes put JuJu tied with red cloth in their pockets. These are not Edo people.

Edo are rather direct. If you Bleep and he says I will kill you, do not think he's doing shakara. He will beat you mercilessly.

Not like some who will be pretending to be your friend and put JuJu in your chair in the office.

GamalNasser:
This is how you people scare good people out of governance so only thrash can remain there

From his picture you can see he had been facing bsome long term circulatory problems

I wonder. The man didn't look healthy at all.

RIP to him.

TAO11:
Oga stop deceiving yourself! It's an open secret that a new Oba of Benin must visit Ile-Ife to consolidate his ascension rites at certain key groves.

(1) A key place he must pay homage at is the Oranmiyan grove.

An ordinary gatekeeper of the grove already misfired that every Oba with dyanstic link to Ufe usually come here for certain rites. He mentioned the month of that year when Oba of Benin (referring to Oba Ewuare2) walked in here (here = Oranmiyan grove) and so & so was done for him at this spot, before so & so was done for him at that spot, etc. The video is everywhere on the internet.

(2) Another key place he must pay homage at (which Oba Ewuare2 did pay homage at) is the Orun Oba Ado grove.

Channels TV for example was present live during Oba Ewuare(II)'s 2018 visit. And the reporter did mention loud and clear, fair and square that the Oba also proceeded to pay homage at the Orun Oba Ado grove.

If you want it I can paste the YouTube link to the Channels TV news report which mentioned this fact loud and clear.

I hope your persecution complex won't kick in (as always) to the extent of claiming that Channels TV too hates Edo. Lol.

All these homage paying at key groves doesn't look like a thank you maiden visit, or does it??

(3) Oba Eweka(II) who reigned before Oba Akenzua(II) admited clearly to H.L. Ward-Price in the 1920s that his Oghene lives in Ife.

The nauseating Western Region excuse therefore breaks down at this point.

(4) Moreover, can you substantiate your statement below with any evidence, otherwise it remains audio as usual, lol:

"Oba Okunade Sijuade in particular knew how Benin and Ife relate. Surprisingly he had the chance to elaborate when pressed by the Lagos Weekend paper in early 1990s but he didn't. He would have been on record now. Whether one agrees or not with his views."

(5) Listen, the simple reason why both the Ife palace and the Benin palace have been playing the "Oba of Benin-thank you visit-card" is that a clear statement (from the Ife palace or from the Benin palace) regarding the actual historical and spiritual reason behind Benin Obas' usual post-coronation visits to Ife will be used against the Benin palace in the Oba vs Ogiamen litigation.

The Ogiamen have insisted repeatedly in court that the Oba dynasty should go back to their Ife.

Complete fraud. The only possible person buried at the grove would be Oramiyan. Because he was indeed an Oba of Benin, albeit for a short time. Before making his way through Oyo back to Ife. No other Oba or head thereof was buried there.

Quite revealing that you would rely on Aristo, someone usurping Ogiameien position against the real chief Ogiamien Osarobo Okunoghae, who's probably still missing or whereabouts unknown.

Ogiamien and Evian story is well known. Ogiamien is the mere stool maker for the Oba since about 700 years. He was not even a warrant chief during colonial rule.

Where did the purported litigation go?

The deception has been Oduduwa political fabrication as father of Yoruba people.

Yoruba that it was even Islamic people who made it up. I know you will also deny the fact that Muslims made it up.

The reason Ooni must slaughter 7 black cows if going to Benin is not for crossing 7 rivers as Yoruba have recently made up. Oba Sijuade said it was imposed on every Ooni by tradition. But he refused to explain fully. But in Benin we know why.

Simple reason is that because Ekaladerhan/Izoduwa refused to come back to Benin to become king but sent Oramiyan instead.

it was imposed that any subsequent Ooni going to Benin must atone with 7 black cows.
Isn't it funny that Oba Sijuade would stop at saying why in his interview with Lagos Weekend paper?

If it flattered Ife he would have happily said it. But in Benin that fact was known and still well known.
Modern population politics cannot stop it.

I can dig out the interview for you if you want.

So the visit card was also needed with the Sultan, Etsu Nupe, Emir of Borno, Olowo of Owo, Amayanabo of Brass and other monarchs Oba Erediauwa of Benin visited?

The lockdown is working. The increase is not exponential.

TAO11:
What are these men always looking for in Ife whenever they newly become king??

Yet it never happens the other way round.

Well, traditionally, Obas of Benin begin tour a year or two after coming to power. In the past it would be various parts of the empire. In recent decades, he would do a thank you visit to monarchs who came to his coronation.

I witnessed Oba Erediauwa's maiden tour. Of course relatives were in his entourage. All the way to Sultan of Sokoto. Benin have no ties with the Sultan. I wrote about it years ago on another thread. 50 years from now, will people also begin reading meaning to their pictures with Etsu Nupe, Sultan of Sokoto, etc?

Oba Ewuare II has already toured Edo, Rivers, Cross River, Osun and many other places. They are all on YouTube.

As at the time of Oba Akenzua, Edo was in colonial Western region, with parliament in Ibadan. Monarchs were parliament members.

Clearly these are related monarchs. I see no reason why such meeting should be interpreted in any other way.

Oba Okunade Sijuade in particular knew how Benin and Ife relate. Surprisingly he had the chance to elaborate when pressed by the Lagos Weekend paper in early 1990s but he didn't. He would have been on record now. Whether one agrees or not with his views

As the old guard gradually depart, revisionist theories will emerge.

Nelso2:
Saw a contact on her phone late last year, saved as aa1 and each time he wassup her it's either he calls her my friend or my love.

Confronted her but she denied, saying it's her customer that is owing her money. Been searching for the contact but couldn't find it again after then.

Recently, I searched on her phone while she was sleeping, went through her wassup again, saw a number saved as 3, had to checked on it, behold the profile picture is the same man. Funny part of it, each time she chat wit him, she deletes the chat at the end of it. Been mad since and about to confront.

The man in question is almost 54 and I am in late 30s.

She may not be physically cheating. But I think the guy asked her out or the guy shows an attitude that may suggest so to her. Most women often feel they are in control. Married women get many temptations to cheat. With work colleagues, clients, etc. Some will cheat, some will not.

Women liked being asked out and desired. She likes the attention. I guess the guy tells her sweet things that you believe she knows you feel her. So no need repeating.

She also feels the guy can be of other benefits to her. Not necessarily of sexual nature. Some women need a male figure to confide in. They trust men more than fellow women at times. The fatherly figure and the maturity of a 54 years old man might be something she admires and desires.

Only danger is, depending on who the guy is, he can exploit her weak moment to bed her. Like if you both have a serious fight and she's emotionally down and turning to him for support.
It's a delicate game.

If you ready for any potential heartache and other consent, then try to know more. If not please let it be because the result may not be palatable.

Too much sex, not enough sex, complain everywhere.

Most have very high body count. Many do not even admit 20% of it.

If a lady wants to settle down genuinely, she will. Be economically stable. With poor finances a low body count woman can easily turn bad.

I keep saying poverty, desperation to survive, lack of opportunity and an uncaring society is a perfect breeding ground for all manner of vices.
This cuts across tribes, cultures and religions.

To appear surprised that certain people also get sucked into the mess is to underestimate the collective trouble we are all in nationwide.

All our children must by the age of 10 be given the firm hope that they can and will make it in life. It's not just through words. But through what society looks like.

fatymore:
How long does an autopsy result takes to come out?

I wonder o. With adequate staffing a few days would do. Only the toxicology part can take weeks most times.

It seems in 9ja families must pay for autopsy. In serious countries sudden deaths, suspicious deaths, certain in-hospital and some deaths after discharge from hospital automatically warrant autopsy shouldered by the State/govt.

We have failed to organise ourselves. Only to hide under culture, religion or our "peculiarities"

Avalancheman:
Sure there are. But tribal Edos like to lump everybody from Edo as Edo by tribe even when facts say otherwise like the case in question.

Taiwo Akerele is a pure Yoruba name... Hence, he is Yoruba...

It's people from outside Edo State trying to Stoke ethnic hate. People of various ethnic and religious backgrounds have co-existed in Greater Benin for centuries. Of which Edo just a small part. I do not know how people foolishly thought naming the state Edo state was wise. Edo traditionally means central Benin City. Not even including Uselu. Whereas Benin was the empire.

Even Gov Obaseki's great great grandfather came from Anioma. But they see themselves as Benin today. In Edo people have the liberty to identify as they want. We do not need outsiders to bring us their tribalism and tribal agenda.
Benin was capital of an empire from 1440 to 1897. Various people brought their talents and settled there.

People like Stella Damasus Aboderin, Ramsay Nouah and many others were born in Benin. It has been a melting pot for centuries.

Well, snakes have different venoms. Some haemorrhagic, neurotoxic, cardiotoxic, etc. Some even have combination.

Is the antivenom NAFDAC approved as a general antivenom?

Bevmo:
Yes you're right now and the person you quoted was also right cuz lockdown seems not working but I'd better day it won't solve the problem. Good number of people lives well in UK compare to 9ja, and upon that they all are getting stimulus from the government for locking them down, same not happen here. BETTER KILLED BY VIRUS TO KILLED BY HUNGER

Well, a credible poll should solve this. Social scientists should be doing such online.

To know how many are willing to risk Covid-19 because of hunger and have lock down removed.

People in villages seem unperturbed. They can still feed from the land. Herdsmen permitting of course.

rotadeco27:
This lockdown is not working!

It's actually working. If not it would be worse.

In a place like UK, without lock down one person would infect about 2.6 other people. A place where households are smaller and many use own cars.

In 9ja, if no lock down with packed buses, markets and so many living in crowded face-me-I-face-you, one person might infect 5 to 6 people. Nigeria has not even given the figure what the factor could be.

It's clearly hard on people economically.

[quote author=Judolisco post=88882169]Fg should start building isolation centers around the country.... Let's prepare for war in coming weeks [/quote
One wonders what the donated billions have been used for.

Lagos & Kano should have like 1000 capacity COVID-19 hospital beds. Specially built or commandeered facilities. And even more isolation capacities. Better not to eventually need them than not have them when needed. Ogun, Edo, Oyo, Osun, Rivers, Kaduna, Kwara, Osun and some others should have at least half of that.

We cannot slack, let people perish needlessly and say it's the will of God.

It probably makes sense in terms of public health. But not politically savvy. If everybody not working now would get just 10 to 15k paid into their accounts weekly, then fine.

Two weeks blocks make more sense. Piecemeal stuff. It would prompt govt to also be working harder for alternatives.
But this way it would appear govt wants to relax and not bother much.

Sadly, if it's giving pain already, extraction is almost inevitable.

Otherwise it can become infected, form a cyst or affect your gum and jaw bone.

So save yourself more pain.

nickishire:
Why are there two different flags behind the President?

Zombies be like: he so loves Nigeria that he had two flags made to fly behind him.

Normally one flag is the Nigerian flag and the other should be the flag (with a red colour included) of C-in-C. But it's not obvious in the pic.

Very nice work Jarus. Kudos.

Ok.

creolehunt:
I just thought about the girls I've been with and noticed a certain trend. This isn't even about the girls themselves who are excellent human beings, but their families.

First girl I dated revealed to me that the dad died of suspected poisoning and her family were chased out of the family house. Her eldest brother is an area boy while it seems things aren't working out for her other siblings.

The next ones dad was late too, one of her sisters is separated from her husband while the first son of nearly 40 has nothing doing.

The other ones history is that her dad is late too. The eldest sister is cohabiting with a man. They have 2 kids already without being married. Her other sisters bride price was just paid after having 3 kids with a man.

For the other one, her dad is late too, died quite early. The eldest sister is in her 30s and unmarried. Her other sister has 3kids for a man who she isn't married to and now they are separated. Things aren't just working for her people.

The one I just met recently told me her parents are late. Lost both of them to suspected poisoning within the space of one year.

I keep wondering if this is some sort of coincidence.

Dude, fact is most families are troubled. It's the nature of 9ja. Low life expectancy, poor institutions and high unemployment. So social problems abound in many families.

Yes, many turn out well in life but those left behind are many too.
What you experience is hardly unusual unless people want to "form" on social media.

On the other hand maybe God has chosen you to help one family. As much as you dodge, another comes along.
