@op,
I can marry someone with SS if she's the love of my life, since my genotype abi na blood group is AA.
The only downside is that we might probably be sick at the same time very often.

Siena:
We would give the one our daughter used from birth, till about 3/4 months, before she became too big and heavy for it, but the shipping would be pricey. Our daughter hardly used it, she mostly slept with us when she was brand new. It's quite small, and dismantles well, light enough to be carried as hand luggage, by anyone travelling to Nigeria, in the near future?

If anyone feels they can help out, please let us know on this thread.

You will never lack!

parisienne:
@Horny4u: yeah! Brand neew baby! I'm so thankfull to God!
@Siena: God bless you!

But there is no need anymore since som1 on this thread, whose identity I have chosen to protect has made me such a generous offer. Glory be to God! I would luv to go into details but I don't want to be accused of bragging I opened this thread for a reason and I'm glad that it wasn't in vain. I'm overjoyed!!!

Safe delivery.
And to those who were against your plea for help, God siddon dey watch dem.

alj_harem:
Patronizing what ? To gain what if I patronize Igbo language ?

I am part Igbo myself so what do you mean by patronizing ?

IGBO LANGUAGE IS NOT ANYWHERE CLOSE TO DYING.

do not be deceiving yourself to think it is dying, it is not close to dying

There he goes again! That same silly statement, "i'm part Igbo myself" who asked you?
You should write it on a signboard, hang it on your neck and walk around with it.
That way, the whole world would know you're a Nigerian half-caste.
*spits*
Such a distasteful fellow!

alj_harem:
would a language that is dying have all those qualities ?

I ask ?

OP we have done this topic over and over again on NL

it is not a dying langauge

You're patronizing us right? I hate to burst your bubble, but we know who you are.
A freakng bat! A mammal and a sorry a$$ bird put together.
Do yourself a favour, get the hell out of this thread!

you should have asked him whether the yoruba he spoke has taken him to london.

Couldn't ask. I was so ashamed.

Mtn's advert with Nonso Diobu(bed time story)

Wtf!
So some people still use black and white tv?

OYINBOGOJU:
Ify ,

are you really sure you are a mother?

*rolls eyes*

I heard it on the radio - Cool fm.
I think say na only Igbo people dey push coke?

^^hey! Don't turn this to a hate thread. If i had wanted one, i know exactly where to go to.
So pls, slow your roll.

rhymz:
The only place where the Igbo Language is dying is in your feverish mind. Your exaggerations are at best childish and alarmist. I was born and raised in Lagos, I can speak all three languages-Igobo, Yoruba and English equally well and so are many others of my kind. While I don't dispute that there are a lot of Igbo kids in Lagos that do not speak Igbo very well, however, uneccessary exaggerations like your claims of many Igbo kids that can't speak or understand come in Igbo only shows your are not representing facts but mere sentiments.
The only time one can honestly begin to scream about the gradual death of Igbo Language is if there are cases of childrien born and raised in Alaigbo who are oblivious of their culture and language. All this uneccessary alarm about kids who grew up in places like mushin, oshodi and the likes surrounded by core yoruba lower class people who speak nothing but Yoruba even at their school is no indicator of any death in Igbo language. Go to the Southsouth and Southeast before jumping to uninformed conclusions.

Truth is bitter, but it must be told. No matter how hard you try to hide it, it'll still rear its ugly head out.
The earlier you accept it, the better for you.
If i wanted to get into the usual brawl, i would have headed straight to tribalism section.
So long for now.

^^that lady has got anger issues.
She might actually bust her brassiere, if care is not taken.

Toonice:
if yes why? and where it is in bible

No one's forcing you to attend church services on sunday.
You can either go or sit your lazy a$$ at home.

Basildon1:
Dude, you have her whole message twisted! You are so caught up with sentiments you have even implied in your previous post that the OP is a beggar. She is just being economical and they letting her know she is going too far by coming online. Simples!

Bro, nawa for you oo!
See as you scatter person runs.
Na "begging" be "request" senior brother.
Economical or not, begging na begging.

jennykadry:
I don't get it myself how words can be twisted. I am done clarifying jare

I almost got you with my reverse psychology bulls*hit.lol women!
Basildon1, fall my hand like mad!

jennykadry:
Seriously?When will you guys get it? Don't you get it? I don't care what anybody thinks about me now

I have said my piece, nothing is gonna change

^^under the hard veneer lies the heart of a caring mother who can still help, if she wants to.
We live in a small world. Nothing lasts forever.
Always have that in mind.

MegaMan87:
LOL . I really laughed when I read that. I know Igbo people just like that. They struggle to speak in igbo for a minute so they have to piece together there language with English to save them embarrassment . When we hear Igbo talk like that we just laugh to ourselves.

I know that Igbo will come on here and play the victim. they will say that Yoruba are just bullying them again but that's how they always say. I'm telling you. if a Igbo woman can't speak her own language I won't even consider being with her. I need a prideful woman in life. Not akata.

Nobody's playing the victim here. This is our problem not yorubas or any other tribe.

ifyalways:
Ok,maybe its just me or im being inconsiderate but I'd rather get a local carpenter or welder slap together a cot for me than go this route.

Are u planning on having just one baby?You can always keep the cot for the next baby.I hope you are not considering buying "used clothes" for the baby too?If you can afford the internet,surely you can do better. . .just saying.

Shey na to donate baby stuff you dey blow all this grammar?
Nawa oo! You stingy!
@op,
What can i do to help?

jennykadry:
Bla bla bla bla, unnecessary explanations and drama. How can you resort to Internet of all places? Seriously of all places. you really care about your baby? Your first child . I have nothing against your child but you. Hopefully the tears you shed will be a lesson the next time.

I don't care if you are a business woman or not, you've been doing it for sometime now ,so you not buying this time will not kill you. You are going to have a child, set your priorities right. Life is not all about you now, that child comes first. you can afford it, so buy it.

BTW, I did not ask you to post your family info here.

**smh** even you?
Another stingy mother!
Do you know the kind of humiliation it takes to beg? If someone comes out to beg, it means their choices are limited or the person has none.
If you can't offer any help, do not discourage others. It's a sin. Give unconditionally, no matter what.

MegaMan87:
YES IT IS.

And it's solely down to the lazinesss of the IGBO people. I know Igbo people that understand Yoruba better than IGBO lol. What type of nonsense is that? Igbo people are to busy trying to give their children fancy English names because they think it's "trendy" . That's why it's hard for me to look upon Igbo people favorably. It speaks alot of your character when you can't even be bothered to learn your own language that your ancestors spoke proudly. Most of the "African Americans" on NL are IGBo and ask any of them if the can speak IGBO or if there parents taught it to them ha ha.  Of course they don't. In Igboland it's fashionable to behave like akata.

Every other Yoruba I know out here in London either speak the language or ATLEAST understand it. My parents instilled that Yoruba pride in me and the rest of brothers & sisters. Most Igbo parents don't even bother. It's a shame on their people. If the language dies it's up to them to resurrect it. Aslong as there's a Yoruba man/woman breathing whether in Nigeria or around the world breathing our language will be spoken and respected. Look at places like Brazil & Cuba where they still speak Yoruba.

The IGBO have no excuse. They should show a bit of pride, that's if they have any of course!!!

It's so sad. Even the ones that can speak the language prefer to speak Engli-Igbo(joining English & igbo together)
This makes it difficult for others to learn properly.

badmrkt:
1.comparing our great country with countries like,uk,u.s,ghana,etc.(i fink it's becus of inferiority complex)
2.pretending to be overseas(dem dey 4m activities,sum neva cross lagos enter niger republic.)
3.using abusive words on the president(eg odechukwu ,clueless leader, etc.)
4.derailing threads(like they'll do now)
5.refusing to concede to their errors and take corrections(i'll put a whoopin to their backside)
6.approaching issues without proper knowledge of the said issue(what kind of orientation are we giving them?)
7.some of them are so jobless and hopeless,yet they pretend to be thriving enconomically(hmmm, )
8.they're so violent when reacting to thread,especially one that has to do with GEJ(haters)
9.they're too tribalistic,always fighting over childish issues like,''my region parades more beautiful girls than yours''(feel like squeezin their necks)
10.always using contracted form of writting to cover up their spelling incompetency( )
11.they always blame GEJ for their inability to perform well(haters will cook my Bottom)
12.they are too religious(muslims hate xtians and vice versa)

I agree with you totally. In one way or the other, we're all guilty of this act. But Nairaland can never be fun to be in, if all rules were followed. There's the real thing and the chaff.
You can always choose the one you want and leave the other.
But i think this should have been in the general section not the sub-section.

Is the igbo language dying?
It's awful and a big shame to see most grown ups and kids in non-igbo states speak other languages and yet they cannot say a single word in their language.
I once asked a guy i knew why he cannot speak his language(igbo) and he said; if i can speak igbo, will it take me to london?
I was so ashamed.
Meanwhile, this guy got an "A" in yoruba language in WAEC!
My cousins born in lagos do not speak igbo. They're not even comfortable when others(igbos) speak.
I love yorubas and hausas in terms of language and culture preservation.
When a language dies, future generations lose a vital part of the culture that is necessary to fully understand it.
Yorubas or Hausas born outside their states, even in foreign countries speak their language fluently.
When an igbo man stays in abroad for 5yrs and comes home, he forgets his language and torments the people around him with English.
It's a big shame and -1 for them.
Something should seriously be done to prevent Igbo language from dying off.

Still available.

^^lol. Before nko? Women sabi use person like tissue paper.
Don't know about her though.

Still available.
