In Greek mythology Hope is considered a curse. Zeus gave mankind Pandora's Box and filled it with so much evil so that once it was opened - it would unleash horrors on mankind and make us suffer. One of the evils he added was Hope, he added it so that we don't despair and commit suicide and end our suffering , instead thanks to Hope - we can keep on striving and keep suffering for his entertainment. |
Chibugo sounds Igbo, anyhow they said they are not Igbo they are Ebira, so name checkers what is our conclusion? |
She should calm down, as long as women, men and children are there - she can be sure she won't stay there for long. It's when they place her with only women she should be worried |
If APC takes full advantage of the political apathy I hope no one will accuse them of rigging |
You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villian. Verydarkman should enjoy the light for now because dark days are ahead. |
Apga is the only party that has potential to rival APC, it has lots of cool headed practical leaders, unlike that other party. |
If that man dies, things will fall apart in Iran, that might or might not be a good thing. |
MEEVEET:Okay, tell me the name of that currency before you go, I want to verify something |
MEEVEET:They have a paramilitary that is loyal only to the leader of Chenchya MEEVEET:Perhaps during their separatist years, kindly tell me the name of their current currency you claim they use MEEVEET:Is Northern Nigeria a separate country because they have Sharia law? Is Awka a separate country because it's illegal to kill monkeys there? Even in USA abortion is legal in some states and illegal in others MEEVEET:I don't know about the rest but mentioning Crimea is very laughable, Crimea used to be part of Ukraine, Russia annexed it, and guess what? The people of Crimea rejoiced because as far as they are concerned - they are Russians. |
MEEVEET:I asked for regions and you mentioned just one. Russia fought two bloody wars to destroy Chechnya separatism and unite Russia. You really believe they went through all that effort just to allow them have a separate country? It's like saying Niger Delta is a separate country simply because Nigeria granted amnesty to Asari Dokubo and Tompolo and even gave them contracts and let them keep their troops. North is more than just Hausas and Fulanis |
MEEVEET:The North is the absolute majority with a unified culture. MEEVEET:Your confusing a Federation with a Confederacy. Please provide evidence of Russia's regions having separate military and currency |
Now i'm sure he didn't spend time in poor man's Nigerian prison, he would have been traumatized. |
Fortruth:Are you supporting my points or criticizing them? Russia and Ukraine have the same people and same value system AND THEY STILL WENT TO WAR |
Singapore has just as much religious diversity as Nigeria and it is one of the wealthiest countries in Asia USA and Russia has just as much ethnic diversity as Nigeria and they are the world powers. Rwanda and Congo had similar ethnicity and religion and both countries fought bloody civil wars. Even Russia and Ukraine / Taiwan and China / South Korea and North Korea have more similarities than differences. There is also an ongoing conflict in Sudan I think we need to be more critical. |
Banks are very suspicious, ordinary change of signatory, they will need the signature of all participants. They can't be stupid to loan money without properly verifying the collateral |
Aunty is a scammer, if true she would be sued for copyright infringement and deceitful practice towards buyer and seller. |
Who is a criminal? Different countries have different definitions of a criminal Russia would consider Ukraine supporters criminals and vice versa. If this is true, this policy would completely destroy Telegram. |
This begs the question Why is Asake more popular internationally than Sunny Ade? Most would agree that Sunny Ade represents Yoruba culture better than Asake Perhaps it is the westernization/commodification of Yoruba culture that makes it so popular internationally, maybe they reduced the quality so they could increase the quantity. Movies that truly promote Yoruba culture would never reach a certain level of popularity |
What are the uses of masquerades? In the past they represented the spirit of the dead ancestors but things have fallen apart, masquerades have stayed but the beliefs that surrounded the masquerades has died, no one truly believes in reincarnated ancestors anymore. The people in the masquerades attire themselves might even go to church on Sunday to do Thanksgiving to Jesus, on Monday faithfully abide by the orders of a Finnish national and on Tuesday write to the Canadian Embassy to process their visa. |
Who started the 1967 six day war? Who attacked first? |
It's good this way, not when things go south they looking for a certain Emefiele to heap all the blame upon. |
Some people just enjoy being used as scapegoats and lightning rods. |
The lesson here is that Lagos State Government is not tribalistic but are fair and equal in all they do. But some people will never read it that way. |
Tyrants don't just wake up, they usually start small... A soldier that blatantly refused to obey orders in broad daylight in the presence of other soldiers, even ignoring his own colleagues is not normal. |
He was poisoned... He was too powerful, coups could not work for him, poison was the best bet, it also helped that he was a muslim. |
ItisWell22:Becoming a norm doesn't mean it would become legal... The police would not waste resources investigating the death or robbery of a gay man (which happens a lot), same way they don't care about girls who get killed through hookup, though hookup is normal these days. |
Top is the plug (Verydarkman), bottom is the socket (Bobrisky) |
You don't need to tell women this, every woman knows this instinctively. It sounds like your message is aimed for men. |
You need to check yourself, maybe your giving jolly just come vibes, crooks can sense when your not well connected with your environment. |
Thank you guys for your answers and contributions. |
flokii:I didn't mean all Nigerians are poor and uneducated, I meant that people tend to assume that uneducated poor Nigerians are usually brainwashed by the wealthier elites and become tribalist as a result. |
FourQu:Good point, but some might make the opposite case, that experiencing racism abroad should make them realize that Blacks all look the same to white racists, so this should make them see all blacks as one. |
