So just do what you must and let their conscientious judge them. That way, you would've taught them a lesson they won't quickly forget. None of us is truly righteous.

post=131538564: In as much as we are happy for her, (She is a very pretty girl), Unfortunately, this is a detriment for other young Nigerian aspiring models/up-coming beauty queens that have been preparing all their teenage lives for this pageant. Obviously, the organisers will want Chidimma Adetshina to win at all cost to make a point to South Africa, (cos if she doesn't win, then another tantrums from SA will be huge saying, You hear them saying things like 'she can't even win in her so call Nigeria bla bla bla...) This is jeopardizing the main contestants in Nigeria đłđŹ that have been preparing for this pageant as well as the Ms Universe International beauty Pageant đ. It is well.

Now, why would a highly noised Dangote Refinery be sold to the corrupt Nigerian government under Tinubu when the NNPC denied investing in same. Another massive corruption scandal is brewing up. No sane foreign investors will think Nigeria.This country is sickeningly nauseating. How can you say the man has been part of the rot without actually backing up your claim?

Education / Re: Reps Committee Visits NOUN, Warns Against Non-compliance With Appropriation Act by bammo: 9:37am On Jul 10 |
Xxxylxxxx:
Only one out of ten NOUN graduates is employable, even out of pity. Education is not just about reading to pass exams, but about being able to solve problems. If you think all you need is that paper you're holding, you will go hungry.
Law was just canceled at NOUN, and they will never offer it again because they do not have what it takes to offer it. Some courses will follow suit. A computer science graduate from NOUN who can't write a simple program and can't speak proper English. I graduated with a 2.2 from the University of Ilorin and was lucky to get the job. The pay was 480k when I started; now I'm earning above 700k, excluding allowances.
No NOUN graduate can solve any problem; they are only carrying a paper certificate.
No NOUN graduate can get a job anywhere if the recruitment process is well scrutinized. Dude, don't be too drunk in your little Certificate. I wonder what problem you have been able to solve that a makes you feel so special. |

englishmart: Dangote said Nigeria's import dependency is akin to importing poverty and exporting jobs" This is someone who only values foreign workers. I know of an abysmally inept Filipino mechanic who doesn't know 22 spanners but earns 5k dollars+ monthly. The site has over 50 workers but their cumulative salary is less than N5m monthly. Once your skin is light, you're an engineer even if you come from prison. Dangote doesn't believe there are competent Nigerians, and that's why an Indian who doesn't know the difference between ampere and voltage is the head electrician to electrical engineers with decades of experience. The cement he produces almost free of cost is sold at a more expensive price in Naija than he sells in other countries on the continent. He should stop crying.

By tagging every single crime to Fulani Herdsmen out of sentiments, we could be making it even harder to identify the true perpetrators and stop the senseless killings.

How did she get as much as $9 billion? How did we move from this level of mind boggling corruption under Diezani to the current revelations about Emefiele? Why do we keep throwing up extremely greedy characters like these as leaders?
If sheâs willing to cooperate for the recovery of the $9 billion, I think President Tinubu should allow her come back. That kind of money can help us stabilize the exchange rate immediately. Omo the amount is shocking. |
Food / Re: What's Inside Ofe-nsala? Please Help O! Too Sweet, And... by bammo: 5:22am On Dec 23, 2023 |
Probz:
Some kitchen secrets are best kept that way (you guys). Like it, donât like it. There are some things you donât tell without hesitance. And itâs not that a great chef doesnât reveal at all (whatever they choose) but nsala has a certain significance that non-Igbo people might not understand as readily so whatever ingredients go into making it beyond whatâs commonly known arenât something people are going to shout about just for the sake of popularising the recipe even more.
I didnât mean any of that in a mean, tribalistic way. I was literally just saying. An Ibadan woman (or man) can probably learn how to cook Anambra onugbu-egusi if theyâre really sat down and taught but itâs challenging in any case because thereâs a certain lock on it that itâs just preferred people with the direct heritage unlock and preserve like that until such a time that it might as well be more popular knowledge, and onugbu-anything (besides a sprinkling of it in, like, ukwa or okro/ogbono soup) is far from the easiest thing to cook. As you can appreciate, itâs quite hard. So tough that most people under the age of 45 donât even bother with it. Itâs super-hard that even a lot of people with Anambra blood who perform the sweetest (and ironically bitter-sweetest when itâs time for it) miracles in the kitchen otherwise wonât even go there. Hilda Baci and her mum probably canât cook onugbu, either, and theyâre amazing at everything they do cook.
Likewise, I wouldnât argue with a half-Agoyin Togolese, half Yoruba-Togolese person about wanting to keep a certain lock on the baddest ewa-agoyin or Ibibio and afang soup because itâs their thing and was solely theirs before other people started knowing about, liking and eating it. And that goes for the owners of bubble-and-squeak as well. There are certain hacks that Cockney grandmas knew that generally arenât super well-known to people outside that space, and thatâs part of the magic of it. Hausa mallams and suya, likewise. Creole-dem and jambalaya/gumbo, ditto. Ndu-Ijebu and ikokore, Enugu-interior and okpa, Thais and their signature Thai green curry and so-on. People from a particular region of France and quintessential foie-gras. Italians and just-about anything to do with pasta and lasagne. I could go on forever. The point is thereâs a general recipe that anyone can follow and get good results from so long as theyâre capable of being versatile in the kitchen and following instructions, sure, and that one and all the personal variations (which are important, because cooking reflects individuality and it even should, sha; jollof rice is a prime example of that) can spread to more and more people but the people who really have it on original O.G.-lock have their niche ways coupled with their individual ones and preservation of that is likewise important. Equally-so.
It doesnât really have to become this big tribal war and thatâs not really what I was implying or getting at in the first place. You people just chose to read extra meaning into whar I said. So donât think Iâm tribalistic or anti-Yoruba because that ainât it. It really ainât and thatâs just, like, not who I am. Iâll always defend fellow Igbos and requisite preservation when it comes to all sorts but that doesnât mean Iâm trying to stick the knife into everyone else. Not even a little bit. Iâm probably the last person in the world whoâd do that on a malicious note. Consciously or subconsciously. You are one among hundreds of tribalists littering this forum. No one attacked or disrespected any tribe. On the contrary, they were being appreciative of something good but you had to remind us that we can't be humans in this country. |

That would be telling. And Iâm not going to, not this time: When it comes to stuff like this youâve just got to put your faith in the people who cook it. Authentic nsala soup is not for the next Yoruba person to copy, try-as they might. Anyone who learns, wherever theyâre from, can make a nice nsala soup (even if itâs just with chicken and not a catfish in sight) but there are certain hacks and niche ingredients that only Oguta/Aguleri-dem go-know about. But as far as general guidance goes it definitely never hurts to add okpei (dawadawa/iru-equivalent). Start with that if youâre not already adding it.
Maybe the Oguta, Awka and Asaba hacks will be spilled in time. Youâre just going to have to watch that space. What's wrong with you 5 Likes 1 Share |
