If you ask me, this is a great disrespect to the culture of the people
Masquerades have their importance to play and this can only be done when they remain mystified.

In my childhood, we feared them a lot. But growing up I saw of them urinating, eating, undressing etc (In secret oh) and i lost the fear i had for them. But i can't tell that to children or others today so that their cultural respect would still stand strong.

Well, i don't know what these ones did. I hope they didn't do a crime with masquerade costume.

What other importance can they play other than for entertainment? Unless you are in support of perpetuating barbaric and archaic rituals long rejected and forgotten.

Nigeria and it's regulations. In a normal society, any tricon being moved from point A to point B, needs to be chained and bound down in other to avoid scenarios like this. It takes all of 5 minutes to do. Rest in peace to whoever lost their lives.

Did Buhari reveal to Obiano how Nigerians has just entered a ONE CHANCE BUS?

Funny.

JN1:
And yet some guys who married 'brains' and 'characters' still go outside look for ass which is even worse. It's boring to be always hearing something like this, there are people with curves who are also extremely intelligent and with very good characters.
Some pretends to be looking for 'character' and from the bottom of their heart are denying themselves what they want. Seriously, I have nothing against 'Sunday school teachers' but let's be honest with ourselves. Some men like ladies with that while some prefer flat one, after all one man's meat is another man's poison. Live and let live!

This guy, let this be your first and final warning; you are barred from applying logic and above all, making sense on Nairaland.

Did you snap these pictures after the car has been stolen or you knew that the car will be stolen? I can't imagine snapping multiple shots of a car like that, when no be Buggati Veron. #justthinkingaloud# I'm on my way to Jos-Maiduguri expressway with my 'akpoti' will be looking at all the car that passes. Someone else should volunteer for other location. #BringBackOurCar on course.

The reason you ask this question is because you are not aware of how property insurance functions. You are supposed to keep records of receipts of every property you own. Then, you are supposed to take pictures of everything, including serial numbers, as soon as you buy it as backup to the backup. I thought it was a joke till my phone got stolen one day. My insurance company wanted proof since i had lost my receipt. Thank God i had pictures uploaded to my cloud.

Forget that car jareee, Name N85,000 car u dey look for as if na Hummer

How dare you? who are you to judge what is precious to him or what is not? I hope and pray fervently, that whatever you hold precious is taken from you and let's see how you respond.

If that is the case, Nigerian men living in Germany are screwed.

micronut:
we have all lived on dat for ages and nothing do us......u are probably nurtured with d same food chain and u stand to be healthier than one US citizen eating genetically modified or induced fruits and legumes......... Natural foods are the best, forget the crude processing method, its more safer than all these hyped oyinbo irradiation dat deposit myriads of heavy metals in our body,say for smoking, other african food processing technique like drying, mild frying, salting are still ok... no perfection any where, even in white man's land cos they all comes with negative resultant effect.......Am a food biochemisty!

good job jare @op......i love Agric and hoping to write a research on food security and agrobusiness as a Phd thesis

No one is debating the merits of Natural food source over processed foods. The point is the MEANS of delivery. i repeat "No one is debating the merits of Natural food source over processed foods. I am repeating this because Nairalanders are fond of arguing off point. I bet that vehicle would have transported even wildlife and God knows what else before it got to the market place. Just because it is natural food does not mean one should ignore hygiene in the process of delivery.

I have a picture of Mikel taking a dump. I wonder if that'll make front page too.

Nigerian immune system is probably the best on the planet. It's a wonder we haven't all caught some deadly virus or something. See unhygienic packaging and distribution. From car booth direct to consumer. Na wa.

Good luck.

You can always identify a Hausa woman. Ever so graceful.

My very first phone was a sony ericsson. Had a unique ring tone. Kinda looks like the nokia with antenae in you post. Next came the trium. ok phone but still left much to be desired at the time. The baba of them all was the Nokia 3310. That thing was made to survive a nuclear bomb blast. God! i loved that phone. Memories. Thanks OP.

@op; I honestly don't think you understand what "tourist attraction" means. And stop adding beaches as part of tourist attractions. There are no beaches that qualify as that in Nigeria.

Ignorance is bliss. Every year, America awards 50,000 dv lottery visa's to different people of diverse nationalities. They also accept undocumented migrant individuals and even look for viable ways to give them legal status. One would wonder why America does this. It's simple. It's for the sole purpose of generating REVENUE. I did not understand this till i emigrated to the country. Every living person of legal working age will pay some form of tax or the other. Every living person of legal working age will at some point, want to buy a vehicle and automatically start paying insurance. Once you have graduated college and have gotten a new job, the next thing is to build a house. This alone drives the middle class. This is why America's economy nearly crashed when the housing sector had a problem. Are you getting the picture? It is a process of elimination. For one useless, lazy person, there will be 20 hard working individuals who are willing to spend and contribute in some way to the economy and the American government does not care whether he/she is black, white, african, indian, chinese, cripple, gay, straight e.t.c it is a game of numbers. They understand completely that the human resource is the most important of all resources. And you never know, you might one day stumble upon an Einstein or that German fellow who helped build the atom bomb for America. If the parents of Einstein had been turned away at the immigration front desk, they would not have claimed and benefited from his genius. This idi.ot south african is completely clueless. Instead of him to be thankful that he has diverse nationalities in his country, he is killing them. He should be blaming his government for not providing quality institutions of higher learning. Because if south africans had quality education, they would be better informed. Country wey skyscraper full no mean say people wey de live there get sense.

My dad used to tell me; you can never know a person until they achieve self sustenance or feel they have achieved it. See how humble he looks. That changed as soon as he became president again.

ocheejemb:
Lol...see how low your level of reasoning is.

Thank God! At least there is one sane one amongst them. I was beginning to lose hope.

You know the easiest way to identify an unemployed Nairalander with no future prospects? He/she is the one who often clamours for death and destruction of life and especially property the most. If they can't have it then nobody should.

shachris03:
na just mouth dem dey make sha. If we lose the jobs, you lose your company. you can't threaten us on our own soil.

you are right jooo. Lets spite our face by cutting off our nose. Lets go jare.

Really? Is this a serious question?

RANDYMUDA:
He was responding the the ghanains 1969 ejection of Nigerians and the 1983 ejection of ghanains by Nigerians.. He tried to explain that the ejections were lead by government policy

While the SOUTHAFRICAN KILLING OF FOREIGNERS IS BORNE OUT OF ACTUAL HATRED FOR FOREIGNERS WITH NO SUPPORT FROM GOVT..

I think you should apologize to him.

If that is your interpretation of his post, then you been cheated in college/high school and should demand a refund or your tuition fees.

Solozzo:
That was a govt policy, and it related to illegal immigrants. These are xenophobic attacks unsupported by the govt of SA.

I hope you are not one of those who post and argue for the sake of it. Please paste a link to your source which states that the govt of south africa is in support of what is going on. And don't say the "zulu" king. He is not part of the govt of south africa.

BiafranPrince:
And you are also too young to know that Ghana first did it in early 1960s

Read through my posts to decipher the point.

iamord:
u have a valid point here there is also a case that ghana did it's own before the establishment of ECOWAS. but Nigeria did its while under some ECOWAS rules . but its better we just learn from it and let it die. for peace to reign

Very true.

WYman2:
yy do I feel like,this guy is a ghanian.
Posing as a nigerian,just to score cheap points.

Bro,I advise you to employ GooGle.
It will educate your ignorance..ghanians looted us too.
Many of our businessnes was consificated,so is other properties owned by us.
Don't forget,some of us where mained too,by ghanians
My uncle was a victim too,so don't tell me,it is bcs of poor reporting,bcs our's too wasn't properly reported.
Most present ghanians don't even know,dat dey deported us too.

Let's end this argumnt,cos I see your'er bent on taintin nigeria BLACK

There you go again with the "he killed my cat so i will kill his dog" mentality. I don't care who did what to who. The point is we must acknowledge we've done the same as south africa is doing today which is blame others for our woes.

WYman2:
and did we go about killing them,lyk SA'ns are doin?

Brother,ur argumnt,holds not water

And how exactly do you know we did not? Not saying that we did, but you have to remember that back then information was not disseminated the same way it is now. No cell phone or cell phone camera, no bystander reporting, no internet. Far from the advantages we have today. What i know for a fact is a lot of lootings happened and beatings were given to them.

WYman2:
[size=17pt]and ghana did same thing to nigerians,FIRST in 1969,deporting over 2million nigerians.
When we where just starting as a country,cos ghana got independence bfor us and nigerians where suffering economically.
So don't play victim here(the feeling is mutual bro,though I don't support it)
While we deported 1.5million ghanians.

Now tell me,who is worse now,btwn the two?[/size]

I don't understand your post. Victim implies we/us/me have been hurt by the Ghana/Nigeria relations. The point of my whole post was to douse Nairalanders back to reality, since many are acting like we are saints and can never do such a thing. I am not here to measure the size of coc.ks or to identify who is better than the other. The fact is, in our history we have done what south africa is doing right now.

kodded:
so did nigerians kill innocent ghaninans doing their normal business ?
?

If you bothered to read through my post, you would have read the part where i said "not quite so gruesome but it was getting there". I don't know if anyone died, but i witnessed many many beatings. Beatings that should not be metted to another human being.

JiggamanGh:
It was a different time, Ghana did it to Nigeria and Nigerians did back to Ghanaians. People need to let Ghana must go rest. Both contries have learned their lesson and moved on. Let's deal with what's going on in South Africa. In this day and age things like this shouldn't be taking place.

Point of correction. We did it to Ghanaians and Ghanaians never did it to us. Don't confuse enforcing immigration laws with what we did to them.

haywire1:
I was abt asking him same question.

Lol.....

JiggamanGh:
Ghana must go happened years ago. The world has evolved and things like this shouldn't happen. The world is now a global village.

Which is why history should be taken very seriously. In the case of Ghana, look at them now. We are supposed to learn from everyone's mistakes especially since those mistakes can be accessed easily. Human beings are basically selfish animals with animalistic instincts.
