PoliticsRe: The Yoruba Kiriji Wars (1877 - 1893) by dagboss(m): 1:19pm On Feb 10, 2012
I thank you guys who have educated most of us about the Kiriji war on this thread. It is shame that i did not know one tenth of all i have read on  this thread. I have always been interested in knowing these things but i could not lay my hands on any material when i was a less busy man, that was responsible for my purposely driving down to Unilag bookshop one day in the late 90s to get a copy of Samuel Johnson's book but it was not available that day, this thread will ginger me to still look for it and if possible look for some other books mentioned. Even though at a stage i was scared that the Kiriji war was going to be reenacted going by the posts of some of the principal facilitators but the typical Oduduwa spirit stepped in to douse the impending reenactment. grin grin grin  Once again God will bless you all for this good work

EducationRe: Ogunsanya Quadruplet. Uk First As All Simultaneously Graduate With Masters Degre by dagboss(m): 1:39pm On Jan 20, 2012
Yoruba people tend to have like a high likelihood of twins, triplets, quadruplets. I dont know why though. Like its very rare for caucasians to get identical twins but i know so many people who have twins and triplets.

You are right, particularly among the Ekiti sub group. A researcher once concluded that the high rate of multiple birth is due to high consumption of yam in the area. There is the occurrence of one set of twins or two per couple in my extended family.  I am a twin (Taiwo) too but my Keinde has traveled to Afghanistan grin grin grin

There was no complaint just last week when the same law was implemented to the letters in Enugu, hope you remember that the same democracy/civil rule existed then. I hope the people of Enugu have not boxed themselves into a tight corner. I doubt if any aluta no matter how legitimate will ever hold in that state any more.

I thought SE did not participate in the subsidy protests. Can't these organizers do anything right? Nonsense.

Quote

The Ikemba Nnewi, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, who died in a London hospital late last year, will be buried on March 1, 2012. His burial was earlier scheduled for February 3.

The burial committee set up by Ohanaeze and other interest groups and headed by Professor A.B.C Nwosu announced this change in date yesterday.

While expressing regret over the change in date, the committee said that it was as a result of the protest and strike by organised labour and civil society groups over the withdrawal of subsidy on fuel which it said impacted negatively on earlier arrangement.

It said, however, that the change in date would not affect the elaborate arrangement put in place to give the Eze Igbo Gburugburu a befitting burial.

PoliticsRe: Army Deployment In Lagos Was Requested By Lagos State Govt - Army Spokesman by dagboss(m): 9:52am On Jan 20, 2012
I think Governor Fashola is not as cheap as to call for deployment of soldiers to come and shoot down peaceful protesters and at the same time cry out loud to the whole world against the exercise. We all know operation MESA has been in operation in Lagos for some time now. They are seen patrolling in pick-ups only, but the soldiers that are still occupying some parts of Lagos have different types of SMG mounted APCs. This type of Uche Chukwumerije propaganda will not work. They should stop calling dog monkey for us to save their faces.

Well like my people always say a "Sango dancer that dances and refuses to kick the air na him abuku (disgrace)".

PoliticsRe: Ait Voice Of The Masses Or Government? by dagboss(m): 10:01am On Jan 13, 2012
Maybe they want to maintain some level of balance in their coverage of the whole thing, just like Channels did yesterday nite when they aired the press conferences of some groups supporting the removal of subsidy even president of NANS angry And you have to remember if they are not careful the regulatory body may pounce on them and withdraw their operating license

I hope this is necessary to show the so called cowards in SW that Biafra part two is real and if it will happen please tell Nwazurike to aim it at the Niger Delta so that the Beaf sposored alliance between the republics of Niger Delta and New Biafra will be put to test.

You shouldn't justify circumventing the law. You should rather offer the poster assistance in purchasing a vehicle that can go through the ports  at a good price.

I fear my brother o. You can imagine supposedly educated Nigerians in the name of making money,  telling the whole world that thay can go criminal if they want, it is sad.

Gadem how did 'Governor Bitumen' escape from the scene  huh He should have been given the beating of his life to at least send a message to his band of People Destruction Party (PDP) that Nigerians are angry with them all. Please tell that ex-militant Beaf if he is in Nigeria to take a drive from Yaba to Ojota and identify himself to demonstrators that he is Beaf of Nairaland, he may be lucky unlucky to meet a Nairalander amongst them who will order a very big VIP treatment to him.

Good move because Late Baba Adedibu's foot soldiers are still very active in Ibadan and environs. 7PM-7AM is no big deal demonstrators form up anytime from 0800hrs so the aluta continues we should all resist this new year bad luck given to us by Mr. Badluck himself who because he can now afford designers shoes has decided to remove shoes from the feet of Nigerians that voted for him in millions.

I believe bicycles are an option, for short trips. Driving for a 4-mile round trip is pointless.

Car sharing is also another idea, if two or more people live and work in the same area, sharing a car and splitting the cost of fuel three ways will make things easier. If all three people own cars, they can alternate who's car is used on a weekly basis.
Posted on: Yesterday at 04:05:15 PM


Bravo! Brilliant idea myself and my friend/colleague actually opted for this option sometimes between 1999-2004 while we lived at GRA Ikeja and worked at Ikoyi. All we did was to use either party's car for a week then next week it was the other. I still believe in the option because once i get to office around 0700hrs from Ayobo to Island my car remains untouched at my car park until i am leaving by 4pm. Honestly if there is a working and smooth public transport system i have no business driving that distance everyday, same applies to many Lagosians i believe.

Unless there is something wrong, i think i have seen a few names here who less than three weeks back were using Nairaland to mobilize Lagosian of the Lekki-Ajah axis to rise up and unleash the North Africa type of revolution on Gov Fashola for daring to introduce toll on Lekki-Ajah expressway now defending a worse government policy. Those are the types of Nigerians in Nairaland. Nigeria we hail thee!!!
Car TalkRe: Lagos New Number Plates Now Available (Pictures) by dagboss(m): 1:16pm On Dec 28, 2011
Guys, be aware that the position of the Lagos Govt is that they want to concentrate on issuing new plate numbers for now so those that want to change their old plate numbers to new ones should wait a while. I ran into a radio program where the Commissioner in charge of of transport was made to clarify this. I am not a Lagos Govt spokes man please.

Sounds cheery to hear that Ford Parts are available in Ojuelegba and Ladipo. I was kind of scared that they are not available because i just joined the Ford family and with the state of the one i bought and this good news, there is no looking back again. As for whether that guy at Omole is trustworthy, i cannot vouch for him yet since i am yet to visit him and as regards that my brother, 100% honest technicians are hard to find in Naija but you can always whip them back to line if they are going too far in their cheating acts
