kaabo se daadaa lo de.


why not go to romance section and look for a SO instead of popping in and out every so often.


btw is there an unholy alliance between nigerian terrorists and somali ones?
grin

Dude you blog is not well put together, its like an updated version of a 1995 internet page and fact of the matter is that you post nothing concerning Nigerians or West Africans in general, though you seem to enjoy getting a few digs in on West Africans.

Sorry I'll pass.

Though the individual beauty threads for SW/SE/SS/etc women are nice I think a thread that celebrates them all as Nigerian women is better over all. So I found this thread that does that smiley

Enjoy

sighs, typical unintelligent response
Its the truth, why should someone else be a martyr for your ideas. If you want a revolution start it from your doorstep and help it grow into a movement. Nothing worse than an armchair quarterback.

[B]Mbari Houses[/B]
[QUOTE]Mbari houses of the Owerri-Igbo, which are large opened-sided square planned shelters, are examples of Igbo architecture. They house many life-sized, painted figures (sculpted in mud to appease the Alusi (deity) and Ala, the earth goddess, with other deities of thunder and water). Other sculptures are of officials, craftsmen, foreigners (mainly Europeans), animals, legendary creatures and ancestors. Mbari houses take years to build and building them is regarded as sacred, therefore new ones are constructed and old ones are left to decay.[/QUOTE]

aribisala0:
without any narrative this is just an incoherent collection of photos which could be from any where.
the photos individually are fascinating but a narrative however brief would give it greater lucidity
there is a reason why we put stew on top and not under the rice grin
I said I would post quotes about certain pictures if they have them, if they do not you can easily figure out what is going on and these are readily available photos online. In fact google allows you to search by photo if you want to track the origin of a photo down. grin
