ElSudani:
I will ensure my children marry Yoruba, anyone who doesn't like it can jump into the lagoon. What is wrong with people these days?
Did anyone make a fuss about Davido claiming to have Ibo blood?

You are speaking from both sides of the mouth. All these fuss is because of Davido claiming to have Igbo blood. That's exactly what triggered all these nonsense. Ask the woman why Davido's ancestry and marriage should bother her and the so called whatever group?

If someone as educated as these lecturer should have this kind of mentality, I wonder how people out there in the streets would think and act. We Africans are seriously in need of God's intervention.

dsocioemmy:
The parents, families and communities are really in support of this?


Wow!

They should be arrested Asap!

Mariangeles:
How much would that cost you kwanu?
Isn't the amount "prosperity" enough on Its own?

My dear, it's almost the same everywhere. If you choose to stay in Nigeria, that’s a huge price on its own. If you are enterprising and hardworking but not rich or well-connected, living in a country that isn't functioning properly can be a dream killer.

The Nigerian system sets you back for at least 10 years—if you are fortunate. That means you lose 10 years of your life simply by living in Nigeria, unless you are one of the highly connected and wealthy.

My advice to people is this: if you ever plan on leaving, leave early—preferably before your 30s.

U.K has been like that for a while now.. even the Whites are not finding it funny talk more of immigrants.
The problem with Africans is crowd mentality.. oh because this person has gone abroad, I must go too. Ehnn you don go and your eyes don see am.

Oh Africa, blessed continent plagued with bad leaders and docile people.. where some people sleep outside overnight and still carry on fine the next day.. Go try am in UK or Canada and see if you'd live to tell the story.

Lastly, Government should do something about these education agents deceiving Nigerians about opportunities abroad, most Nigerian youths are now stranded because of false assurances from these agents.

If you must work in Nigeria, get a Nigerian degree.. If you go U.K, then don't come back to look for work in Nigeria. Stay there and stay jobless if you don't get job. As simple as that.
That's the only way that Education in Nigeria and Africa will improve and have more worth.

Living is a risk. But you cannot compare Nigeria with the UK. If you went to the UK legitimately, with the right mindset, your chances of prospering out there outweigh that of Nigeria 10X.

Depriest2020:
Few years to come, all these bushes will become new cities. My only concern is that our government lacks planing culture for cities. They would allow people to buy up those lands and build whatever, however they deem fit.

Why and how would the bushes become new cities in our generation? I said our generation, because most bushes, if Jesus tarries will become developed due to population explosion. The bushes around Benin/Lagos expressway have not turned to new cities, so why would this one?

LuQuLuQu:
Hmmmm...nice piece

Na God save me and my family that year


When we were younger, my dad was driving nothing less than 220 km p/h on Nigerian roads carrying all his family.

I thank God for his journey mercies all those years

220 km/hr! Chairman take an easy na...na plane he fly?

onuman:
Explain to your readers how you get rich through killing people for rituals.

I don't know, but, I keep an open mind. That you don't know doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

onuman:
Anyone who believes that using killed human beings for rituals to get rich is a dunce.

Oyibo would have used these block heads to do rituals for money if human rituals for money works.

If you believe that angels and demons exist, then money ritual is also possible. If you believe in the supernatural, then money ritual is possible. The rituals may not rain down money from the spirit world, but it may give you the power to attract "money". People that think they are modern and woke do not know that the are mere puppets in the hand of their puppeteers.

Peakdesign23:
Mine is garri. Wbu?

"Wbu"? Genz people...

Cho cho cho cho president...
That question really pain am
You no
When people give you names behind you and one ELENUGBORO come talk am to your face.

Dem go blacklist that reporter

onuman:
The illiterate slowpoke believed that killing people and using them to make ritual would get him riches.

And it probably did. How then can you explain his riches? Unless he is an organ trafficker.

JoeEeL:
ISESE L'AGBA.

ORI YE YE O!!

Omo, na Yoruba preserve black african culture pass. Asides Yoruba, I cant easily think of any ethnic west african group. Most are now jew and arab reprogrammed slaves with no recourse to dignity and originality.

What a shame!

Very funny....so demon worship is African culture? Maybe that's why Africa is still in darkness in many ways. Let me tell you, there's only one true God. People of all races and times have been searching for this God. Some ended up creating things to represent the gods of their imagination. In these last days, the one and only true God has revealed himself to the world through His son, Jesus Christ. In the time of ignorance, the world , including Africans worshipped idols. Fortunately the West abandoned their idols and embraced Christianity (Jesus Christ). But someone and some people in Africa are insisting on remaining in darkness, all in the name of culture. Why serve gods that do nothing but kept you perpetual darkness? Look the way Africa is today. Are you happy about it?

They report said that Simon Ekpa was born in Biafra .

aswani:
Per the bolded, do you also read and see what Ndigbo Obidients type that people are responding to or are you blind to that?

Ever since Peter Obi declared his candidacy, we haven't rested on here, even those of us that didn't vote President Tinubu.

There's nothing like Igbo Obidients. Obidients are people from various parts of the nation that voted PO. People that disgruntled with the establishment that have kept Nigeria they it is. Blaming ndigbos for their behaviour is not only mischievous but also wicked. How do you think genocide starts? It by spreading lies about a group of people until the general populace believe the lies. That's exactly what the Agbadorians are doing.

Mohisah:
If people can berate Nigeria for lack of amenities, everybody should be ready to pay tax like abroad do..
We love you, Wike in Abuja.
Help us to clear shanties & airtight our security.

What about revenues from oil sale? If they cannot manage the proceeds from oil sales, is it your taxes that they will manage well? Nigerians are ready to make sacrifices if the leaders are prudent with their natural resources. I cannot pay taxes to a wasteful and rapacious government.

Mayegunal:
There is need to enhance youth representation too...

Which youth? Una youths will do worse than the so called old men.

National arsembly

National Assembly!

gabbasin:
Akpi is talking himself to prison, this is what chasing clout unnecessarily can do to someone that doesn't reason before setting the ring light

This is to tell you how far the social media have damaged this generation. People are no longer ashamed... they can do and say anything just to trend. Just reading about what he said is gut wrenching.

Ihebu4chelsea:
First of all, there's nothing like ukwa la ngwa. That's a political term!

It was created by ngwa people to wrestle power from Abia north. Unfortunately, when they got the power, the frittered it away on the altar of incompetence ...they left Abia State worst than they met it. People will never trust them with power again. Ukwa people shouldn't allow anyone to deceive them again.

As long as Enyinnaya Abaribe is interested in the Senate, I doubt if Ikpeazu can unseat him.

Nemesis0147:
I love how all of them are using their native name

Hmm... Africans and obsession with ethnicity. Too much diversity is a recipe for disaster and confusion . It's time Africans start consolidating into a strong unified force. Check out the Whites , in the USA, you can't tell apart people that have Irish, English, Scottish, Polish, etc. origins. The Hutus are fighting the Tutsis. One black man from Ogbomosho is busy fighting another black man from Anambra...all from the same country.

Btw, I don't have any problem with people bearing whatever names that inspires them, irrespective of the language. I will likely give my kids native names...

Wow! Thank God for Abia State. Those who have never been to Abia State will never understand.

aswani:
On this forum where people are being idiots because of silly elections, that's your frame of reference abi?

Why not respond directly to posts where an Ndi Yoruba is blaming Ndigbo for all the ills in Lagos? This thread is solely about a Yoruba man defacing ala Yoruba, wetin concern Ndigbo victimisation for dere?

Nor bi only Ndigbo bi di non indigenes for ala Yoruba, why una carry oda pipo màtá for head so, ah ah?

Have you heard of statistical sampling before? If you don’t know, Nairaland is a microcosm of Nigeria. If you want to understand the state of Nigeria, look at Nairaland.

By the way, people suffered—some were injured, while others lost their freedom and property because of the last elections. And guess what? Ndigbos and others perceived to be Ndigbos were targeted in Lagos.

Every day, when I come online, I read and see verbal attacks against Igbos. These verbal attacks have the potential to degenerate into something more sinister and physical if left unchecked. People like you pretend not to notice those attacks for whatever reason. And now, you want us to stay silent while you continue to perpetrate evil against innocent people—only because one of them dared to challenge the status quo

If they can borrow $21 billion , trust me they will borrow. These leaders that are looking for opportunities to ... you know na. It's better we all start shouting at them. Peradventure, they go fear small.

aswani:
Must you make everything about Ndigbo? There is no tribe in Nigeria that you wouldn't find in Lagos, why must you inject Ndigbo victim mentality into every single thing?

Bikonu rest.

You are either living in the moon or you are plainly playing the ostrich. Countless time on this forum, I have read how ndigbo are defacing and soiling Lagos...

StillDtruth:
That is because you are living in a place where you do not need cohabitation.

If you were abroad and you needed to share a room with a man, you are already cohabiting with him even though you are not dating.

So, you are just saying that because you were near your lawful authorities who have a right to sanction your marriage, you could dispense with cohabitation.

Sorry to say this ,you don't know what we are talking about here. Cohabitation in this context is not about sharing an apartment... it's living as married couples, with all that's involved in it. If you don't get it, then you have no business contributing to this discussion.

Work hazard
May God continue to guide us

Work don pass level since na. Simple LOTO would have prevented this tragic. I pity those Wey de hail Chinese companies... people wey no value safety.

Bwanasaraw:
For almost 6 years Buhari couldn't arrest Tompolo and he later gave him juicy contract worth Billions in the last 2 years of his administration.

Tompolo is a Government of his own and he has transformed his village into a City

How did he transform his village into a city? Abeg tell us...is his private properties that made the village a city? Or do they now have good road network and pipe borne water?

DomPerignon:
That's a crime scene that needs to be swept thoroughly by forensic scientists.

Demolishing it and you are destroying potential evidence and clues to probably more murders .

I honestly don't know the rationale behind demolishing buildings owned by criminals, even before doing proper investigation and evidence gathering.

Christistruth02:
You just watch the thread the usual suspects are going to be furious with the Gov for dealing with the Criminal

They prefer protecting criminals

The usual suspects that exposed and lynched the criminal? Or those in the region renowned for... mining?

ElSudani:
China is indeed sharing technology, at least much better than the west.
Tesla was the first to come, they refused to set up a battery manufacturing company. They still see us as suppliers of raw materials and consumers of their finished products.

The chinese are more protectionist than the west. They are in Africa to rip us out...They are here to get raw materials at cut throat rate and ship back to their country. Mention one African country where the presence of China has led to increased development and quality of life for the people. Most of those nations that China built one critical infrastructure or the other are heavily indebted to China. And some of them have mortgage their countries natural resources to secure those loans from China. I would rather have the west than China. At least you can hold western companies accountable for their actions. You can even sue them in their home countries and win. Can you try that with Chinese companies?
