Do you even know what you are saying??
Muslim marriage is what??

GOTVee:
Even though I'm a born again Christian, I must admit that Islamic weddings are more glamorous than Christian weddings. We Christians copy the western culture which throws majority of our marriages in turmoil while Islamic marriages barely experience problems. We Christians have to learn the positives of Islamic marriage so we can have a sane society

Cross river and Ondo babes for me

With this your statement, I know u r of peace
Oshi ratamarayo

Splitmind:
Dirty, stupid and lawless Christians need to start treating peaceful Muslims with respect and dignity. So much Islamophobia is going on in this country, and for what?

Thanks for this piece, it is quite fun and entertaining not only educating and informative, but people wey go hear go hear and you know many people falls in the category of "THE STUBBORN FLY"

The 'GEGEMU PARTY : A Real Life Story

Birthdays during my undergraduate days in the university were always lit.
From early morning beating rituals to late night parties filled with food and booze. Did I say early morning beating? Yea, celebrants always take some beatings for the culture. The break of dawn usually sees friends (and foes, perhaps) gathered to take their pound of flesh from the celebrants. Some go as far as pouring powdery flower and water on the birthday victim. Missiles of sachet waters fly around like its Syrian war while assailants render a line from a popular song:

We are getting old and getting high!
Afternoons are filled with little or no activities since everyone would be engaged in one or more academic activities. It is a university after all. Nights are the most interesting and are usually filled with booze, girls, music and a whole lot of fun. I am sure some of my Nigerian readers can relate and would give anything to have those days back.

Back then, alcohol seemed like the heart of any party. Without it, party rockers don’t come to play. Alcohol level tolerance differs among individuals. While some are already talking gibberish and confessing their sins with just two bottles of beer (usually of about 14O proof or 7% alcohol each), some are just getting started at one crate (a crate of beer is twelve bottles). Science has it that alcohol tolerance is hinged on varieties of factors such as body weight, age, sex, mood, ethnicity (?), rate of consumption as well as the food and drinks taken before the commencement of alcohol consumption. However, I am sure there were guys that defied all the hypotheses of science about alcohol consumption back then.

It was during one of those night birthday parties a friend (birthday celebrant) of mine got introduced to a stuff that could help him save money on alcohol supply for his party. After taking the beating of his life early in the morning, plans went underway to make the night the talk of the town. The bulk of the plan focused on alcohol supply which seemed set to suffer due to a shortage of funds. Unfortunately, a couple of the invitees would pass as those that would readily defy scientific explanation on alcohol consumption. Something drastic had to be done and indeed, something really drastic was done

Suggestions started flying-in left, right, front, back and center. The idea of beer for the night was totally ruled out simply because of those that could turn beer into water; no amount of beer can inebriate them. We jokingly call them antichrist because their actions seem to be an antithesis of Christ’s miracle in the bible. He turned water intto wine, they turn beer into water. Infusion of weed (Cannabis sativa) into home-made punch drink was also suggested but quickly thrown out because of the illegality of weed.
Guys did not want the school authority clamping down on them because of a birthday party. Finally, one popular guy volunteered to provide something that could be mixed with home-made punch, legal, safe and guaranteed to knock even the biggest alcohol-tolerant person off his/her feet. The idea seemed perfect and everything seemed set. The night came and dissolved quickly.

The following morning was quite melodramatic. As at 10:00 am, music could still be heard loudly in the party room without any sound of life coming-in or going out of it. This aroused the curiousity of the neighbouring students and a visit was made to the party scene. A couple of participants were found sleeping in the room, some were found sleeping in the toilet and the celebrant himself was nowhere to be found. It took quite an effort to bring them back to life and when they did, no sense could be made of what they were saying. Whatever they have taken the previous night is yet to disintegrate half of its half-life in their systems. Where could the celebrant be? Perhaps he has early morning classes and has left for academic area?

Majority of those around concluded the celebrant must have gone for classes. It took almost four hours for those that were woken from slumbering to start regaining their senses, albeit none of them could vividly recall what transpired the previous night. Whatever has been introduced into their drink must be extremely powerful. Six o’clock Post Meridiem: still, no sign of the celebrant.

After what seemed like an eternity, a call came through to one of the participants, a mutual friend of mine and the celebrant. The call was from Chief Medical Director of the University’s health center. The celebrant has been hospitalized and the attention of those close to him was needed. Ten minutes after, about ten of us were at the male ward of the university’s health center where our friend (the celebrant) was lying awake and looking at us like a total stranger. Something about him looked different and sinister. The doctor in charge of his case has a lot of explanation to do. What happened to him


Your friend was brought-in about thirty minutes ago all the way from Benin. He was found sleeping by the road side along Ore-Benin highway and was brought here as a result of the university’s identity card found on him. We had to charge the phone found on him before we were able to contact you. He seemed to have lost his memories and reeks of alcohol…

The doctor continued talking while all of us present kept looking at each other with a telepathic exchange of questions taking place.
A lot of what the doctor is saying do not add up. If a driver moves at an average speed of one hundred kilometre per hour (which is almost impossible on Nigerian roads), it will take nothing less than six hours to get to Benin from the location of the University. It simply means our friend left for Benin long before the break of dawn, perhaps while his birthday party was at its peak. How did he get to Benin? What was his mission there and was he doing lying on the road? There are over a thousand questions with no single answer. Perhaps we should rather ask; what was present in the drink that they took at the party?

The question from the doctor must have jolted us all back to reality. An explanation was made to the doctor about went down and how no one has an idea of when, why and how he got to where the patient was found. The doctor explained further that our friend needs urgent medical attention but what was mixed with the drink he took at the party needs to be identified first. Unfortunately, the supplier of the substance was not at the scene. A call was made through to him and he mumbled faintly on the phone

WTF is Gegemu?
Those that are close to me know that I am a teetotaller; an attribute that is virtually incompatible with a typical birthday party in the student’s hostels within the university. Therefore, even though I participated in the early morning beating rituals for my friend’s birthday, I was deep asleep while the night party was going on. Hence, I knew virtually nothing about what they ate or drank during the event. However, the mention of the word ‘Gegemu’ reminded me of one of the songs that were reigning then:

It was later on after the whole incidence that I took my scientific self to research about the substance that was responsible for such an evil and dangerous reactions. The after-party experience observed was as a result of an infusion of a particular plant into their drink of the participants. Datura as the plant is botanically called is a genus of a flowering plant in Solanaceae family; the same family with the egg-plant. The genus is believed to be native to North America (Mexico to be particular) and exotically found in other parts of the world. It is made up of about nine species; D. stramonium, D. innoxia, D. wrightii, D. metel, D. discolour, D. leichhardtii, D. ferox and a host of others

Out of the nine species, three are found growing in different areas in Nigeria including D. innoxia, D. stramonium and D. metel with the latter being the most popular among the populace, especially the youths (the reason is quite obvious). D. metel is popularly known as ‘gegemu’ or ‘apikan’ among the Yoruba tribe found in the Southwestern part of the country, ‘zakami’ among the Hausas found in the North and ‘Myaramuo’ among the Igbos which are predominant in the South. The plant grows as an annual shrub or perennial herb with erect stems and a characteristic smell. Depending on the cultivar, the colour of the plant’s flower ranges from white, cream, yellow, red to violet. It produces a green, knoby fruit.

The plant has a wide variety of application that has been investigated both scientifically and ethnobotanically. It has been shown in several types research to have antifungal, antibacterial, cytotoxic as well as hallucinogenic properties. Proximate, nutritional and phytochemical analysis of the seeds of the plant revealed a highly nutritious but phytotoxic potential. Tropane alkaloids and scopolamine have been reported to be present in the plant and both have wide application in the world of medicine.

The capacity of the plant and its component to cause memory loss as well as slurred speech has been investigated in rats under laboratory condition and results showed a modification to the brain frontal cortex, the portion of the brain associated with memory, verbal communication and reasoning etc. Several medical cases associated with deliberate or mistaken ingestion of the plant have been reported prior to this particular incidence. In fact, a majority of the population of a whole town have been reported to have run mad because they mistakenly utilized the leaves of the plant in cooking their food

Report of abuse of the plant also abounds both locally and internationally. It has been recognized as one of the most popular and readily available as well as legal alternative to illegal/scarce/expensive psychoactive active substances in the country. According to several sources, fresh or dried parts of the plant are wrapped and smoked by youths and hoodlums as an alternative to marijuana.

Back to the health center scene

Those that participated in the bash that has regained some level of normalcy explained that a decoction of D. metel was mixed with punch drink that already contained a significant level of alcohol to make the birthday party go wild. The individual effects of alcohol and the active substances present in the plant is quite enough to provoke series of undesirable reactions, let alone a combined/synergistic reaction. They really invited it on themselves.

The mention of ‘gegemu’ helped the doctor in diagnosing what could be wrong with the now indisposed celebrant. He was placed under intensive care for close to 5 days before returning to a semblance of himself. However, up till today, none of those that participated nor the celebrant himself could recall what transpired during the party. How the celebrant got to Benin overnight remains an absolute mystery

Say no substance abuse!


Thank you all for reading.

So I was in Phc and looking for a friend that can Travel to Calabar with me,after calling all my paddies none was free or available.
I wanted us to drive down with my old jalopy from Phc.
I was even ready to do all the Spending then but most of my guys don enter Eko and it was impromptu not something we planned for before.
On the day I was to leave for Calabar I called her to ask how far and she told me she couldn't get any Hotel yet coz most were fully booked.
I was like so I should forget it naw,that another time...She said no that I should come that when I come we will find a place together that she was tired of moving every around with taxi.
I told her no probs that I was coming.
That morning by 7am,I drove to mile 1 Park under the fly over where they were loading buses to Calabar...I came down went and asked one girl who looked like who was traveling to Calabar if she wouldn't mind riding with me that I was going to Calabar and didn't want to ride alone...She said,Yes....So I asked her to enter and she did,I asked her if she knew the road very well she said yes that she schooled in Unical...I smiled and was happy i've got a good companion.
As we got to Eleme Junction or so I enter an eatery and got Chickens pies and Mineral,Stopped and bought Springles, Digestive and Gum.
The babe was light skin not so pretty but spoke Intelligently...We were gisting as we were going, getting to know each other better but my gf kept on calling to know how far and where i must have gotten so tey the babe in the car Started asking me about her(If she was someone expecting me and all that).
I told her she was my fiancee and showed her a picture of my girl only for her to say wait wait,you mean this girl is your gf...I said yes..She said waooo...What a small world...But she thought my gf was drating someone else...I said how,you know her?!she said yes,that she works at so so and so I said yes.
I asked her again you said you thought she was dating?!She said no nothing...At that point I started suspecting my gf.
To cut the long story short,my car started overheating and giving me serious breaking down signs just before we got into Cally.
I was just managing it.
Finally,we got into town...I first drove the babe to her final destination and that was where the car gave up.

This is too muchy brother

godlessmind:
god has always been useless his servant was killed and he couldn't save him ....more reason you should know that god doesn't exist....

And you don't think you have said too much?

Muyiwaipere:
Even your English sef fit commot her second leg

Aba why??

Your comments lack minimum requirements for a sensible remarks
You only portray your hatred and wickedness towards the globally accepted religion of peace, no wonder your moniker says it all....
Have u seen any christian dress as a christian to islamic school before or where have you seen any christian challenging muslims in their school or state policies
Am presently in the north when you go to tertiary institutions in kebbi or sokoto you will think all the female students are muslims because the christians ones choose to obey the law of the land but why must the muslim decides to place their religion over everybody?

AntiChristian:
Love your neighbor as yourself self no be here o!

CAN wet dey force Muslims girls to remove their Hijab in Public schools. And Bishop Oyedepo was calling the consuming fire of God to come decide the matter. The fire he never called on bandits, kidnappers and Boko haram.

Christians will give you anything for as long as you can convert to christianity. Visiting the sick is an avenue to make fishes of men to christianity.

How do you love your enemies and pray for them? Christians are the major cursers of Buhari and Nigeria as if they are their enemy. Can you pray for Boko haram too?

Am in kebbi state
This people no dey joke at all with criminalities
These are small to what will happen to bandits that mistaken comes to zuru local government of the state..
The people are more than ready for them
Infact miyetti allah leader in the area have to fled for his life

God bless kebbi
God bless Atiku Bagudu
God bless Nigeria

Good one
But know that block industry require absolute monitoring oooo
Just be careful

Am yet to see any Hausa that screamed out to south for help, so y d blame. No be dem dem??

Optional09:
The Fulani are killing the Hausas they are relocating their families tagging some of them bokoharam displacing their children and making them homeless while they take over their lands.

Fulani’s have finally taking over the North, it’s very sad that the South are not fighting for the Hausa people. What the Fulani’s are doing is evil but no one seems to care

If them o catch dis one na, he go still arrest people for the same crime he dey commit ooo.
H Y P O C R I T E

This arewafirstborn get time ooo
Why u dey vex ur muscle on something that is obvious
Who didn't know the history of hausa-fulani...
And let me tell u no one hates hausa, but hausa n d rest of nigerians have just one enemy.....
Everybody eyes don clear
U people believe bcus u r violent people should fear u... This is 21 century violence doesn't win a war again even if ur usman tried anything like jihad, he go hear am
Thank God for people like Sunday igboho, nnamdi kanu and others

Welcome home sir
Its not easy

May be he his trying to say 7-8 out of 10 fulanis are evil or kidnapper.


Yeye

Me:: mtcheew

Me:: mtcheeeew

JudgeKronos:
it has never been this bad,
Sometimes I ask ... is Yaradua not a Fulani man? Is he not from the same katsina? He ruled this country and nothing of this nature happened.
this monkey & baboon blood sucking demon......

ttime will tell shaa.....

My brother u can't say if that man has hidd n agenda expecially to islamize nigeria b4 God call him home........
Trust fulanis man at ur own risk

Who says we can't make such judgement without north?
Is boko haram in d south?
Why is nigeria rated as the third most terrorise nation when terrorism is only in the northern part of the country?

JaySterling:
North is part of Nigeria, so we can’t cancel them or erase them when making such judgments.

They must be involved in all calculations and statistics

Ogbeni off ur mic
Who is north?
Wen something trends on twitter like fire.

JaySterling:
Trash! No one in the North or South East knows or used this slangs

Remember, north has 19 states, more than half of Nigeria

So if northerners don’t use this slangs, you can’t title this thread “10 popular slangs used by Nigerians in 2020”

Totally incorrect

It should be more like “10 popular slangs used by Lagosians, Yorubas, or South Westerners in 2020”

I’m also very sure people in the south south of Nigeria like PH, Benin and Warri know nothing about this slangs

The Slang every Nigerian used is “Wahala be like bicycle”

And it didn’t even make your trashy list

MINORU:
Lol Akure pigs

Igbos are ready for you fools

Try it next time and see the out come

Pigs

Pele ooo u r ready for them in their land?
Yeye dey smell.
No wonder

After reading some igbos/upon comment I know why dey call them ipigs

Haas
Igbos don buy bad market.
Una knw no say akure no dey take nonsense?
Even fulani don die finish from thunder.
If they no fit defeat u physically he take them nothing to go spiritual, be warn

Amah70:
What outcome? MURIC of the SW shall always counter what ever rest of Yoruba want.

Let see as d drama unfold

EdoFirstBorn:
Then you don't know anything

Here in southsouth Yoruba boys sell sims with fake registration for 300 naira

That's one of the many criminal activities they leave southwest and come here to commit daily

So are u trying to say ur south south boys are not doing same.
Forget the fact that yoruba boys are doing it, the fact that the business is striving in ur region shows u r part of the decadence.

Oga forget that
North alone cannot make north president
North doesn't own nigeria,
Let them hold on to power and see the outcome
.

Pierocash:
You can now see that the problem of the south is the southerners themselves.

By the time the North decides to take advantage of this statement to hold on to power,the same people will be shouting 'marginalisation'
