I don’t know why the message in this photo is kind of hilarious to me; maybe cos whitemen tend to exaggerate things sha . So the white man is saying as recent as July 1960 people in Abakaliki in the present eastern Nigeria don’t even don a loin clothe and there was a move to prosecute them for it ?

Na wa o, now I understand the pain of some of these anti-imperialists people like teejay . Why criminalize not wearing of clothes if what is written in that screenshot is correct ?
Even 1960 is not even recent grin
Have came across Africa nudity in several books, article et al even up till now there are still tribes in Africa that don't dorn a loin clothe up till now...but let's just keep to the argument...I brought the article only to support Donjazet claims.

Please the bold is not true.
Stop watching too many Nollywood movies and making your impression of Igboland from that.
In Ancient Igboland, we made beautiful clothes and wore them in cold conditions or some festivals. Of course we lived in hot rainforest, so most times we wore few clothes because of heat.
Google Akwete cloth weaving centres for a start.
@ d bolded donjazet was right

Disclaimer: this is not to be view from the tribal lens cos most Africa countries during this period were like this but this was just a little bit more pronounced.

Thank you

Roland let me give a better illustration of my point from present happenings.

Take the Hausa language. After the infringement of Islam into our part of Africa, the fulanis went on a religious conquest and successfully conquered many smaller satellite tribes. Vast majority of them co-opt the Hausa language. Today someone from Adamawa in the east will go all the way to the sokoto in the west and still understand them.

Because of the unity of their language, they were able to even form a sociopolitical system that has worked for all of them. Many years ago someone from borno will not understand someone from sokoto, but that's not the case today. Today they see themselves as one and are united in the same causes.

This is as apt my point as any. Same languages help in uniting people.
No apologetic feelings
But I think your IQ is too low
The fact Northerners speaks the same language does that translate into unity...many language speaks the same language, have same cultural background, have same religion, have same historical background yet they're war zones Somalia Iraq a perfect.
Now lets me stay local not go international
I'm a Yoruba boy
Yoruba is an homogeneous society translating to the fact they have the same historical breakground, cultural background, and same language (Yoruba) with a particular geographical location(South west Nigeria) despite this they're still divided ( yea very shocking)
We have the Oyos Ijexa (Ijesha), Lucumi, Ota (Aworis), Ketus, Ekitis, Jebus (Ijebu), Egba, Lucumi Ecumacho (Ogbomosho), and Anagos though they're have same history but divided by mere intonations and tones.
Imagine a group of people living in the geographical location, same belief, history, language, culture and language been divided by just mere intonations and tones...one of my professors particularly told there is no perfect homogeneous society we just have LEAST DIVERSE SOCIETY. The whole United world is myth cos the basic of the society FAMILY are divided across of alot of beliefs, ideology, and even politics, you can't take away preferences/choice from people as far people have choices to make then there will be differences. A state of utopia is a myth, a pure fantasy. France tried it in Africa by the policy of assimilation despite the fact forced labor and indignant policies were enforced on the natives there were some African that loves their traditions and cultures. I can go on and on but let me stop here grin

Havertz10:
Why are you people dragging donjapete grin he is correct[/s]

If you remove language limitations, cultural differences and religious differences, we can all unite as one

[s]Besides what's special about languages? That requires preservation, if you think that it's efficient to be battling translations in the future because you can't let go of some tribal affiliations, you are a joker

English language is like a river, it welcomes terms and words from other languages, it has been diluted so much that it's no longer what its original speakers used

If the argument is which is better or easier to learn, then that's a different conversation but we humans need only 300k words to communicate properly

In a day you don't use more than 2000 words, if a language is broadly used and it's easily accessible, I don't see any reason why it shouldn't become a general language for the world


All these tribal hype and cultural protections aren't helping anybody, they provide aesthetic appeal and sow unnecessary divisions among people that don't have any reason to be divided[/s]
All your assertions are trash

@ the bolded going by your assertions Iraq and Somalia would have been the peaceful Nations on Earth grin
The truth there is always be something that divides human
America for example is one of the most homogeneous country in the world yet they fought a civil war between the period of April 12, 1861 – May 9, 1865...no matter the mechanism put in place there will still be differences between the human race. This is just a madness that has no curse...the whole of the world thought they could prevent a further occurrence of world 1 by the creation of the leagues of nation yet there was a world war 2...even despite the creation of United Nations to prevent a further occurrence of wars among nation there was still gulf war in 1991 grin

Based on performances this season there are several players doing better than him. I believe it's because of his u17 displays that he is still remembered.
My brother he doesn't deserve to make team B of the super eagles ...all this dude hyping are super delusional there is nothing super about nwakali he is bang below average. If we're to judge by the athletico Madrid match the likes of Usman Mohammed and musa had better games than him. I don't praise mediocrity it very shameful for those doing so.

Not just Kante but Mahrez too although he joined Leicester in the Championship but guess what happened he got promoted and dominated ''the best league in the world''

I used Kante as an example of someone coming from an inferior league in quote to dominate a top league.
The example you gave showed how big championship is grin
What makes premier league the best is the competition...I won't be surprised if Watford and Brighton makes top 4 this season.
But championship is my opinion is better than isreali, swedish and those back water league

All these guys went on to play in EPL while Reece and Tomori are Chelsea academy products.

As to your second question I don't know any offhand but I didn't claim Segunda players are the best also.

Jude Bellingham is one example but he's still coming up definitely not comparable to Kante who came straight from French second division to win "tough EPL"
grin grin
Premier league is the toughest league in the world...these players don't need to go else to prove their worth
James maddison, clyne, Gareth bale even John stones are not academic product they're pure championship product

No segunda player have gone up to dominate other leagues I repeat no segunda have dominated other league the league is wack it just more like feeder team for most of their academics most of the player that have shined in the leagues are Take Kubo ( who is a product of Madrid academic ) all those players in the league are fluke
I rate Swedish league pass Segunda division.

And how many more Kante do we have cheesy
And don't forget kante is not even a segunda division product undecided

Egbon that's a matter of opinion. Championship might have more money but I've not seen any obvious quality in the league abi how many championship players go to other leagues and dominate?
Wetin you go call
James maddison, clyne, John stones, Joe Gomez, Theo Walcott, Gareth bale Ramsey, Mason, Reece James and even tomori ( yea he is having good spell with AC Milan)
All these player are product of championship
Mention one player from segunda division who has dominated other leagues (including laliga)

Have even forgotten Jude Bellingham sef

Nwakali highly rated in segunda ?

Tell me something I don’t know
Bro all this about nwakali is bullshit nah media hype...if we are to be logical he no deserve to be in team B, forget the midfield woes we are facing...his athletico Madrid performance were fluke apart from the goal he did nothing even his brother had a better game than him ( yea he had better work rate and tracked back alota time yet his attack wise he was dope ) and if we are to judge by goal Mohammed goal was sweeter and better ,the composure was too much for a defender of that caliber as in I was so much shocked since that goal we didn't even hear about him, he deserves a call up if we are to invite player by that particular he came 20 mins to the end of the match and his presence was felt and I hear some he (nwakali) was the MVP, the same match Kelvin gameiro and Correa dominated most of this assertion is inspired with coke and meth no apologetic feelings.

12large1:
I feel like you’re being too harsh on him. Yes, he hasn’t fulfilled his potential shown at youth level. But, to dismiss an African player talent simply because he hasn’t made it big is incorrect. There are lots of factors that contribute towards a player excelling at the highest level and that includes discipline, Luck etc…. Talent isn’t the only requirement… the only time, that I was privileged to watch nwakali at senior level for Nigeria was vs Athletico Madrid and he was the best player in that game. Mind you, it was a game that included Thomas partey, fernando torres, correa, borja, juanfran.. yet nwakali was the most valuable player in that game and scored a world class goal… my point is that, we shouldn’t allow the European teams to narrate and dictate our players.. if a player has a history of performing for his country and he isn’t impressing at his club, continue using him.. in the case of Nigeria, we only have iwobi or Aribo to certain extent as a playmaking option and we have nothing to lose if our coach tries out another player at that position.. if nwakali flops, he wouldn’t be invited while if he performs, a solution would had been found
World class goal??
Like are you for real??
What will call the one scored by the Muhammed a defender grin

Career › Re: Police Officers' Salary Increased By 20%, Approved By FEC by Astrid4(m):
It not just about increasing the salary of this police men by 20% (with this high economic inflation) that's not just enough...the whole salary structure needs to be reviewed... buhari can't be seating there in aso rock doing virtually nothing and be earning millions when our police will be on the street safeguarding our lives and property will be earning as low as 30,000 no!!! That's just not right.

And also we need to improve their armory, most police station don't even have a good working van to attend to emergency situations it an eyesore, I saw pushing police van it just very shameful...we need proactive steps to improve our country's police department not this feeble steps, police needs to be adequately funded if they're to be effective and efficient.

Nothing wrong with appointing an interim coach while you wait to appoint a more permanent coach.. it's a practice..

Would you rather that the post become vacant? We have to start AFCON preparation soon..

The real issue here is Eguavon and his assistants.. There isn't much trust in them...
When is eagle's next match ??are we gonna playing anything soon...the deal with the new coach is almost good as done... appointment of an interim is non consequential and if need be for an appointment of an interim coach it shouldn't Austin it should be Salisu Yusuf the chief coach...all this shit are just ways to loot money

Austin Eguavon is a welcome development to me. I remember how his team played when he took over the last two 2006 world cup qualifiers matches and his scored a whopping 10 goals, unfortunately we didn't qualify then due to the away goals rules against Angola ��

Lets see what his team will do at AFCON this time around
He will be leaving the position by January...someone in the glass house told me steps are ongoing to appoint a new coach and some names have been submitted so far, he won't be leading SE to AFCON there would have made a provision for a new coach before AFCON.

It would be better for Tuchel to look for quality additions this January, especially for Ngolo Kante, who has been battling lingering injuries for the past few seasons.

Yves Bissouma is a player who has caught my eyes, i don't know what you guys think of him.
We need to get tchouameni or Frank de Jong come january...our midfield option is limited to me Chelsea only have 2½ midfield Kante,kovavic and the half jorgihno...all those RLC, Saul they're all useless like p in psychology no positive impact at all.

DANGOTE ABOUT TO BUY ARSENAL!!!!!

Dangots attemt to buy arsenal is about to become a reality according to
football.london.

https://www.football.london/arsenal-fc/news/aliko-dangote-arsenal-takeover-worth-22371428

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS ARE MIXED

1. IT SHOW NIGERIAN FOOTBALL DOES NOT LACK MONEY BUT NFF IS SO CORRUT THAT IT
CANNOT ATTRACT SONSORS LIKE DANGOTE TO THE LEAGUE
2. DANGOTE SHOULD TRY AND INVEST IN ENYIBA OR VANDREZZER RATHER THAN SOME FOREING LEAVE
3. ON THE OTHER HAND, IT MEANS NIGERIAN TALENTS LIKE AKINKUNMI AMOO, ABRAHAM AYODELE MARCUS, AUL MUKAIRU ETC
CAN NOW EASILY COME TO ARSENAL AS THEIR OWNER IS A NIGERIAN
4. ALSO, THERE WILL BE COOERATION BETWEEN ARSENAL AND NIGERIAN FOOTBALL AND SO ARSENAL CAN OWN A FOOTBALL
ACADEMY IN NIGERIA OR EVEN ARTNER WITH NIGERIAN CLUBS AS TIME GOES ON.
IN OTHER WORDS, THE MONEY WILL STILL FLOW INDIRECTLY TO NIGERIAN FOOTBALL AS TIME GOES ON
