Arguments about it being about discipline and people saying it's crossed to abuse..

I wonder if it's possible to flog smartness/academic excellence into a child..

The man is obviously violent and gives the vibe of one who won't hesitate to beat the wife too if she "mess up"......

I am an advocate of punishing/disciplining a child, but what I watched in the video has gone beyond what a father should ever do to his own child.

I have seen children who were very stubborn and caused their parents great pain & frustration thereby making their parents resorting to capital punishment, but this one is too much. I had friends who eventually turned out good because of the kind of teachers we had who never spared the rod but no be this kind level o.

I believe all is not well in this man's home and the wife may probably be suffering abuse hence why she made and posted the video.

Instead of flogging his son like a thief because he failed an exam, I believe he should invest in getting the boy tutors who can help him understand the subjects/courses he's being taught so he can pass the exam.

Not only Marley relationship with Sam Larry
These guys bullied him, at least there are videos from mohbad himself narrating these events
As for them having hands in his death, I don't think they are responsible

I think initially Naira Marley thought the whether he bullied Mohbad or was an accessory to his bullying didn't matter and Nigerians will forget about the whole thing within. I believe that was why he refused to address the issue for a long time.

It later dawned on him that his career would die a natural death with the whole thing hanging on his head.

afrodoc:
Exactly. How doing an autopsy became rocket science is what I don’t understand.

Everybody involved in that circus was in it for dubious reasons. Most of them preferred the unending scandal and continued social media engagement rather than finding out the truth about what happened to the boy.

When you consider the behaviour of even his family members after his death you will conclude that the boy was dealt a bad hand in life.

Everyone just kept on chasing clout with the issue till it got stale and majority of Nigerians just zoned out of the whole bullshiit.

You would wake in the middle of the night going through social media and you will see people's mother and father doing either TikTok live or IG live about Mohbad's death. 🤦‍♂️. Those people really milked the unfortunate incident.

His family members ; those ones are just too shameless! Chai. That boy suffered in life coming from such family Sha

afrodoc2:
There was no concrete evidence to link him to the boy's death and Nigeria's social media voltrons were the ones who turned it into a circus.
Emotions should never trump logic.

Well, whatever hate Naira Marley gets from the mohbad incident; majority of it stemmed from his relationship/association with Sam Larry who actually bullied Mohbad few months before his demise.

Sam Larry bullied Mohbad to the extent that the boy had to petition the Nigeria police alleging threat to his life. He was even alleged to have remarked that if anything happens to him, they should hold Sam Larry responsible.

Most Nigerians assume whatever Sam Larry was doing to Mohbad has the blessing of Naira Marley going by how Mohbad departure from Naira Marley's record label was made their relationship sour.

The utterances and innuendos from Naira marley and Sam Larry following Mohbad's death also made them persona non grata. More like they just deliberately attracted more bile to themselves thy period with their actions and inactions. That video of Sam Larry going to Mohbad's video set Zlatan in which Sam Larry was seen threatening Mohbad with a cutlass will always haunt him forever.

That being said, it was always obvious that the only way to know what actually killed Mohbad was to carry out an autopsy and analyze the result of the autopsy. Any other thing na just emotion and sentiments. Even the fatter of the boy refused to accept the autopsy result and chose to be chasing clout everywhere online.

And I'm answering you that whether the Itsekiri culture allows him to be bare headed or not he has made his decision as an adult which he will leave with good or bad.

If there's a consequence the Olu and his family maybe will bear it no doubt no matter our personal opinions so why pull hairs over something we have no control over.

Plus today is not the first time people will make conscious decisions that will go against their tradition or culture.

I am first interested in whether their culture allows for him to be bare headed.

I know the Yoruba culture doesn't allow and I know no Yoruba ọba would go against culture/tradition Irrespective or whatever religion he defers to.

When I get a response from a delta person or anyone who knows what the Itsekiri culture says about kings being bare headed, then we can pick the discussion about religion vs tradition from there.

chrisooblog:
Well he's made his choice as an adult and he will leave with the choices no matter how much we agree or disagree.

Plus culture and tradition evolves. Practices that most if not all cultures swore were sacred are no longer observed.

In all of these, u've not answered my question.

Does the Itsekiri tradition allow him to be bare headed or not?

chrisooblog:
Guess he would rather honour God than please whichever tradition that might be offended by what he did.

I don't agree with this line of thought.

If his tradition says he should not be bare headed, he should not open his head anywhere even in church.

However, if his tradition allows for him to open his bare head ; then no wahala.

Anybody who wants to obey the pentecostal Christian way of opening bare head should steer clear of being appointed traditional ruler. African traditional religion is the religion which all traditional rulers are expected to observe.

Abeg people from Delta/Niger Delta please does the Itsekiri culture allow a king to be bare headed?

I do hear people talk about similarities between the Itsekiri culture and the Yorubas all the time, but I was surprised seeing the Olu of Warri's picture from a recent palace church service in commemoration of his 4th coronation ceremony.

I mean in Yoruba culture a king's bare head would never be seen again from the day he's named Ọba elect till his demise. Even when he's in a church he would either have a crown on his head or a small cap which will cover his head at all times.

The academia in Nigeria is losing a lot of great minds to foreign countries or other sectors of the economy. I am a strong believer in the academia and it is sad to see valuable talents like this guy forced to make career choices that takes them out of the academia. How do we build upon the foundation of some of our aging professors? Our institutions of knowledge are attracting instructors who are not necessarily passionate about the academia and it is evident in the new generation of graduates we are churning out. We need brains like this guy who LOVE the academia.

This is the only beef I have with Professor W. Kumuyi, whom many forget is a Professor of Mathematics! Others are Adeboye, a respected Mathematics lecturer at Unilag and UniLorin and Olukoya! Olukoya freaking specialized in Molecular Genetics!!! I love God and no one should question his calling but mannnnn, sometimes I really wish the likes of Kumuyi particularly, stayed in the classroom impacting knowledge.

When religion is involved (in an African setting), it is kinda hard to have logic/reasoning given a chance.

I mean there you may have great academics and professionals who function both as career people and religious leaders outside Africa. But here in this part of the world most great academics/professionals the moment they become religious leaders they just let go of their professions. More like they have a belive they can't serve God and still continue with their career. They always believe in doing the religion thing full time.

I honestly don't know why tho

Roland17:
Na wetin dey tire me for Naija be dis. Shouldn’t talents like these be integrated into our academia immediately. We will wait until we lose him to a foreign country like the millions doing well outside Naija.

Omo, Nigeria no be environment wey encourage person to dey pursue his or her dream o.

I know one bros like that who takes master's students tutorials in Quantitative Techniques, Mathematics, Statistics, OR etc. The bros completed his PhD and lobbied for 2 goods years, yet the Lecturing job was not forthcoming despite how good he was. (This bros will take tutorials of courses most students have given up on because the yeye lecturers would always confuse them in class and those students will score at least 70/100 due to his tutorials)

I think he gave up the academic dream late last year and early this year he joined one of the big 4's. He joined their actuarial team which I believe he will be a great addition for them. That's how the academics miss a great talent and the students will keep making do with yeye lecturers who are not even half as skilled as he is in teaching/imparting knowledge. The good side for him is he will have a rewarding career financially in the private sector

Omo! 😲

The level of fiscal irresponsibility under this current government is unprecedented.

PS: Atiku Bagudu(Abacha's bagaman) is the minister for budget and planning.

Good people
My family dan become plus 1 with the arrival of our boy

Draw draw no extra time no penalties
We dan hang boot

Congrats bro, may his arrival bring joy and progress to Ur family.

Nobody is talking about RMAFC planning to increase the salary of Tinubu, Shetimma, their ministers and other public office holders while me and you are being taxed to death.

On all fronts the common man is being made to.paid more and more tax including increase in customs duties ; but political elites dey plan to review their own salaries......

No wam!

swiz123:
Please, there is nothing average about those melons. Those belongs to the top tier. Anyone better is also top tier.

This is the problem, nowhere in my post did I use the word "average" ; you introduced the word in your reply and then you are already running with it in your further reply to Abokiwam.

I said there's nothing special about the booobs in response to tochex101 who claimed " . any man wey say that bweast no enter ein eyes nah bloody liar".

I am literally saying the booobs on the girl is not one that warrabts such hyperbolic statement. Men don run booobs wey round and fair pass that one before and that's on periodt! If you've not, then that's fine.

AbokiWam:
Bros you lie..

That kind breast is rare, it is special
I'm not only excited about the manner it was displayed.

I was amazed that a breast that age was still firm and full of life.

For this naija wey 22 year old breast go don fall scatter?

You should read the second paragraph of my post again.

Tochex101:
Comfort Bobby don carry men go trabaye........ any man wey say that bweast no enter ein eyes nah bloody liar.

There's actually nothing special about those boobs on her...,,, People are only excited about the manner in which they were revealed to the public.

Men don run booobs wey fresh and ripe pass hers as far back as university days ; the days when men no need to break a sweat nor break the bank to run things.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]To be fair to that agenda, that was not VVD's man.

It was Konate that was supposed to engage.[/color]

Semenyo was both their man. At some point in the run, Semenyo drove the ball away from Konate towards Van Djik.

If Van Djik had engaged at that moment, he would've either got the ball or make Semenyo pass the ball to the other Bournemouth player he was thinking he was shadowing. If Semenyo passed at that Moment, the other guy would've been offside and the promising run stiffled.

PS: I'm talking from the video and not a still image

odizeey:
Until one Arsenal player don get spinal injury na that time them go stop to dey put players in front of keeper.

E go too sweet me that day.

Man utd literally did the same when Ur corners started coming in but they were unsuccessful.

U are definitely misplacing Ur anger. The fact that at least 3 united players couldn't unsettle Saliba and protect their keeper's area should get Ur angered, not Saliba doing what man utd players did on the other end of the field unsuccessfully.

The fact that Man Utd had 9 outfield players and a goalkeeper in the box yet they couldn't deal with just 5 arsenal outfield players successfully during a corner kick should make u angry with them.

Amigoss:
Stats says otherwise

The so called stat did not speak to the fact that he backed off from his man in a run of play that led to a goal .

We are talking about a CB deliberately not engaging an attacker from the opposing team and u are showing stats of duel contested vs duel won.

We are saying ur guy ran from a duel. Ur stat didn't address that.

Amigoss:
You believe this or na agenda

Normally agenda na the currency we deal in on this streets.

But pray tell, what justifiable reason do u think Van Djik has to always run away from engaging attackers running towards his goal?

I came across this thread on Twitter .

So some men do marry their wives without seeing their wife’s unclothedness (Probably in obedience to some religious injunction of sanctity and decency ). It happens in Christendom and in Islam (the two major religions in Nigeria ) ; depending on the denomination u belong to.

In this case, a guy got married to his wife and ended up divorcing after 3 weeks on the premise that he was deceived by the covering cloth that usually covers the lady’s bosom while they were courting . He claimed he was deceived and didn’t know she wasn’t busty .

Now some internet users are saying it’s not possible ; they are saying there’s no way he would claim the hijab deceived her , that it is easy to know if a woman has big booobs with or without hijab.

Ibime sef wan turn Amala, he say na wetin they wan tell us be that 🤣🤣

He leave the decision of the ref begin speculate on what he thinks should have been his decision.

swiz123:
Are you ok up there?? An indirect free kick was awarded to us because Guehi was less than a meter close to our wall before Eze’s shot. How does this mean that Guehi fouled Caicedo like you erroneously stated here.

I said that’s not a foul in football and the referee’s decision agrees with what I said. It’s sad that your arrogance limits your ability to learn from people clearly smarter than you are.

I don't know about ur beef/agenda with Ibime, but truth be told u were right on that Guehi/Palace situation. U were proven right by the ref's decision and even the commentators mentioned it that there wasn't any foul in Guehi getting physical with Caicedo.

And the nightmare continues at Old Trafford; the theatre of nightmare 😎

Iamoyindamola this is the law they used as basis for disallowing that palace’s goal

Una no outscore una opponents today? 🤷‍♂️

One would’ve thought the moment Jackson was replaced , una new strikers go Dey score 5 goals per game

iamoyindamola:
Why did var interfere

Because the VAR felt Guehi violated one of
The football rules that guides free kick and walls set during free kick

iamoyindamola:
They said no. 6 of palace was offside and not the pushing

No that’s not what they said .

They said according to International football standard laws , that palace player should
Be at least 1 meter away from Chelsea’s wall

TheLequte:
That was a penalty o. Sanchez punched Guehi’s head there and missed the ball. Onana was punished for this same thing not long ago.

True 💯

I don’t know why the VAR didn’t check the incident or at least let the ref be called to review it himself on the screen

This law being given as reason for disallowing Eze's goal, hope to see it applied in other matches going forward.
