She would have absolutely no issue in the UK. Even here in Nigeria, the worst that can happen to her is what just happened; i.e. giving up her appointment.

People saying she should be charged to court, how exactly can it be proven that she intentionally used a fake nysc clearance?... Under the circumstances, the worst punishment for the offence is what has already happened.

Culture / Re: Brazil adopts Yoruba as official language - Lekkigists by Cjay2020(m): 5:31am On Sep 13, 2018
Herrnit:
This article is very suspicious and untrue. Nigerians suffer from lack of knowledge and information.

1) This news is only carried by Nigerian media (known to make up false stories). This news isn't verifiable by any foreign media beyond the few Nigerian websites that carry it.

2) A quick look at the official list of Brazillian languages still does not list Yoruba as one of them. Why are Nigerian journalists so quick to create false articles?

3) There was no transatlantic slavery in the 13th century. Slavery started 2 centuries later - in the 15th century (around 1460) and with that Yorubas slaves did not participate in slavery until around 1640 and they began to appear in justifiable numbers towards the end of slavery in the 18 century, coinciding with the period slavery was abolished by the British and the ongoing Oyo-Dahomey war at that time. Yoruba slaves were mostly spoils of the ongoing war between Oyo vs Dahomey after slavery was abolished and were among the last group of tribes to arrive in the new world in substantial numbers, thus explains why their religious practice survived the most. Slavery was abolished worldwide by the British in 1833 and despite the abolishment, French and Portuguese slave traders continued to illegally purchase slaves from Africa to ship to Latin America (Brazil, Cuba etc). The Oyo vs Dahomey wars were at its peak (between 1851 and 1864) and with the Dahomey warriors (mostly women) invading several Yoruba towns and capturing almost all of its inhabitants in entirety and selling them off to the last slave buyers on the slavery scene - the Portuguese and French, Yoruba slaves continued to be shipped in substantial numbers to Brazil and Cuba especially much until the 1860s. An entire Yoruba village would be wiped out and most of the natives transported to the new world together with their chief priest, their mini gods etc. For example, the case of Ketu in Benin Republic or the village of Ajayi Crowther which was completely emptied by invading Dahomey slave raiders and Ajayi exported into slavery. The British soon got wind of this illegal slavery taking place by the French and Portuguese and made efforts to intercept slave ships leaving the shores of Africa for Latin America. The British successfully intercepted a few slave ships from Bight of Benin (containing Yoruba slaves) and the captives were freed and dumped in Freetown, Sierra Leone (the Saros, think of Tiwa Savage, Desmond Elliott, Ajayi Crowther etc). These group of Yoruba slaves never made it out of the shores of Africa. Because they were sold after slavery had been abolished, their memories of home was still strong and a good number of Yoruba slaves found their way back to Lagos (the Agudas/Brazilian territory in Lagos, the Saros).

4) Slave conditions after slavery had been abolished had improved greatly and the arriving Yoruba slaves found themselves in conditions more like servants instead of slaves - they had much greater freedom to keep their names, speak their language, practice their religion and faced much less acculturation compared to slaves who arrived at the peak of slavery (1750 to 1820) who had their names, language and culture forcefully stripped from them and forced to work under terrible conditions. Infact up until early 1900s, there were still some Nago (Yoruba) native speakers in Brazil and the question we should be asking is, why didn't Yoruba language survive in Latin America as a living language (by living it is used regularly at home, at school, at the market place etc) given the favorable conditions they found themselves in when they arrived Brazil and Cuba?

5) The survival of Yoruba religious practices was a matter of favorable times and conditions. Yoruba slaves in Latin America experienced the least cultural stripping and acculturation compared to slaves that arrived in the previous centuries.

6) Ifa religion is a Nigerian cultural heritage in Latin America and has become a religion to its adherents (afro descendants who wish to reconnect with their African heritage) who are not necessarily Yoruba by genetic ancestry but participate in the religion. Congolese slaves and Angolan slaves and even Igbo/Efik/Ibibio slaves were shipped to Brazil and Cuba and it would be wrong to assume all Ifa adherents to be Yoruba because they practice the religion. A good number of them may just be of Congolese or Angolan ancestry who practice Ifa. Just as it would be wrong to call Igbo Catholics in Nigeria Romans because they practice Roman Catholicism that originated in Rome.
[img]https://tracingafricanroots.files./2015/06/lovejoy-et-al-table1-2-destinations-of-africans-from-the-bight-biafra.jpg[/img]

7) Up until the 2000s it was erroneously believed that the Yorubas slaves were the most sold owing to the survival of Ifa religion in Brazil and Cuba, however slave census and ship records show that no more than 460,000 Yoruba slaves actually left the Bight of Benin. Subtracting the substantial number made it back to Lagos (Agudas) and those that were rerouted to Sierra Leone (Saros) in Africa, thus the final number settling in Latin America and contributing to the gene pool of afro-descended blacks in Latin America and North America would be around 300,000 to 350,000.

8.) Ifa religion is no where close to being the 2nd largest in the world. A terrible joke played by the author.

9) The title of this article seems like a wish to come true by the author (who is Yoruba) of it which is far from realizable because the use of Yoruba in Brazil is more like a liturgical language used only during Ifa service just as Latin is often used by the Roman Catholic Church in Nigeria but all Catholics barely understand nor speak it after church service. Most Ifa adherents memorize the words/lyrics and sing it from heart. Yoruba language is extinct in Brazil (i.e it has no native speakers who speak it from birth) and thus is far far from being recognized in Brazil.

cheesy

This is a sign that he has life in him. Leaders with life are always active, proactive and reactive. They're humanitarian in nature. Just look at the picture deeply. Without deceiving yourself, this is the only contestant from PDP that fills the void of youthfulness in Nigeria politics. He's bold, smart, vibrant, clever, brave, learned, calculative, innovative, managerial, economical, insightful, brilliant and intelligent. Humane youths love him because of the leadership spirit that abides in him. I'm a youth and I am not confused. Never in this life will I vote in a 77-year old illiterate into office. This is 21st century. Wise up please. We're not Northern illiterates. We are civilized Western people. Let's behave as such. How many times have you sat down to find out what the media doesn't want you to know about Saraki? There's something special about this man. His senatorial performance is a verifiable proof.



please take ur time and a little data and know what's up with Kwara state...u will stop this thing u are doing. Saraki has been in CHARGE of Kwara from govnor to senate...and the state and his senatorial zone is still that way...what will he then offer a WHOLE Nigeria.
Age isn't the only criteria we are looking at please.... besides Saraki should hv been doing this long before now ..this is clearly for media purpose. May Thunder.....

EponOjuku:


Due to generations of mediocre ancestry and zero history, you suffer a desperate need for validation and approval in order to mask your inferiority.

Here in Lagos, it's people like Pasuma Oganla, Saridon P Saheed Osupa, Wasiu Ayinde Kwam 1 that you see in buses. This one that China Ashebe's face is on a Danfo in Uganda, are you sure he didn't reincarnate as a conductor in Uganda?

But considering how he died angry, bitter, unfulfilled and combmaturedative like a mad puppy, I'm suspecting Chinua Achebe is an agbero in the ancestor's world.

Crime / Re: Food Seller Accused Of Using Mortuary Water To Cook At Oko Polytechnic (Photos) by Cjay2020(m): 8:54am On Apr 28, 2018
BoneBlogger:
A food seller was left heartbroken and in tears after being accused of water from mortuary to cook food at the Federal Polytechnic Oko in Anambra state. A journalist, Ngwu Victor Bright, paid the distressed woman a visit and consoled her over what he labelled a rumor to tarnish her image.

Read what Ngwu Victor Bright shared on Facebook;

CONSPIRACY &PROPAGANDA!

CHARACTER ASSASSINATION

This woman here is called NWANYI NANKA, every Staffs and students in Fed Poly Oko know what am saying. She sell foods like Rice,Beans,Plantain,Meat etc. She cooks like three coolers of rice every day but finish selling before 2 pm.

WHAT MADE HER FOOD OUTSTANDING? Nwanyi Nanka is a very jovial and neat woman, she serves food as mothers serves food for their children, the meat she serves is so sizeable that it can make three meats compare to other sellers. She even sells on credit to students whom she know can not afford it at that moment. These features made her very outstanding more than any other seller and these brought jealousy and envy among her co food sellers. Some lecturers can not settle down without demanding for her food including students.

Just about two days ago some students were paid to tarnish her image ,they went to social media proclaiming that some group of Police invaded school and arrested Nwanyi Nanka for using water from mortuary to cook , they added that it has been confirmed fact.

When i saw this on Facebook and WhatsApp, I couldn't believe it, as a certified journalist I had to wait till the next morning and I called one of my students and asked her to check if Nwanyi Nanka is at her shop, she confirmed that she was there but added she has been crying since morning because she came to sell as usual not knowing what people have done with her name ,students gathered in ewe watching her as a thief just for her to discovered what her enemies have done with her name.

I spoke with her and consoled her also but why on earth will someone be so wicked to tarnish someones hard earned reputation.. This world is so cruel and some students including some mass com students who are supposed to verify the rumors couldn't wait for verification instead they started broadcasting and feeding people with fallacy .

This in journalism is called defamation and a very punishable offence. PLEASE DON'T ALWAYS JUMP INTO CONCLUSION, ALWAYS VERIFY EVERY INFORMATION. THANKS.

I am Comr Victor Chinonso...certified journalist
