fratermathy: Akamkpa is better due to logistics! Obrubra is too far.
Wishing all the corpers an enjoyable service year!
If you end up in Cross Rivers, do all within your power to land in Calabar. Ogoja or Ikom MAYBE managed but they are very far (at least 6 hours) from Calabar. Every other part of the state is still civilisations behind, especially areas in Cross Rivers North. The state government has failed in its duty of bringing development to all parts of the state. you mean ikom four corner? Most part of ikom is a bad as the other villages. Ugep is alright too. |
Politics › Re: Zimbabwe More Developed Than Nigeria – Mugabe by barragan: 8:38pm On May 04, 2017 |
GEJPosterity: BTW they have constant electricity and running water in their big cities in Zimbabwe. I visited a friend in Kewkwe recently (Kwekwe is to Zimbabwe what a city like Ado-Ekiti is to Nigeria), and for my 3 days there, the light did not blink. I also did not see a single generator.
Might want to chew on that before you laugh at Mugabe.
Nigeria is a lot worse than many of you realise. There are several small towns in this country with superb electricity supply, take eruwa for instance, they can go for a month at a stretch without power outage. You have not been everywhere in this country so you should not write like you know everything. |

how come others were able to upload the 8 subjects? the guy who quoted her tweet said he tried again the next day and was able to upload.
to make matters worse, it appears she didn't realize that uploading only 7 subjects would set her back in the competition! I observed the bolded in her narrative as well, seems she was a bit too over confident. That been said, she deserves a place in the department, I hope the school find a solution for her, help her cross over from her current department if possible. |

OROSUNBOLB: Op,this very rich thread will not be complete without giving the account of the battle of Osogbo. That's where the fulanis met their waterloo. I would like to know why the Ibadan war Generals did not march on Ilorin and retake it from the Alimi's descendants and allies having defeated the fulani soldiers in that battle.
The so-called Emir of Ilorin will still go back to where Alimi,his progenitor came from ONE DAY. It is just a matter of time. Ilorin belongs to Oodua. I am proud of Afonja though he was treacherous and overtly ambitious, he was a great and brave warrior who fought to the last breath of his life.
Alimi,like every other fulani,was a very cunning, vindictive and treacherous person. He used religion to brainwash Solagberu of Oke-suna who should have provided the much needed assistance to Afonja during the palace coup.
The seat of Emir of Ilorin represents deceit,treachery,betrayal etc. We (Yorubas) should not allow it to stand on our soil. I have no doubt in our capabilities to correct the mistake of Afonja and just that we shall do ONE DAY. There is a score to settle !
deceit,treachery,betrayal etc Ilorin will remain as it is, the people there are bound by religion to their king, you will be doing them no good trying to force the way of other Yorubas on them. |

There is something seriously wrong with the Nigeria judicial system. I keep hearing of disproportionate sentences given to people committing petty crimes. When it comes to those stealing billions of naira meant for hospitals or drugs to save millions of lives or pension funds, they don't even get any prison time at all. Is this country mad or what? |

mbatuku2: There's nothing wrong with cultures borrowing from each other. Edos borrow from Yoruba, Yorubas borrow from Edo. Ibo borrow from Edo and Ibibio and vice versa. It's OK. What is wrong is not giving credit to the source, even when its so obvious you copied. Apart from Owo and possibly lagos to an extent no other Yoruba group can be claimed to have borrowed anything from Benin, but Benin has gotten a whole chunk of their culture from ours. |
