You might have found your soul mate.
The story telling is cool.

The environment matters a lot. When you are in tune with your natural environment, your heat beat will vibrate at the right frequency and connect with the right soul.
I hope it lasts. I hope you find happiness and if at any point it seems not work again, I hope you have the strength to start all over again

ReubenE:
Must you add Christianity to appear politically correct or appease the other section.

The discourse is about Islam and its adherents fomenting trouble, criticize their barbaric behaviour in Illorin and leave no room for other interpretations. Where have you seen in Nigeria where Christians outwardly threaten other people with death that they should not practice their religion?
Face the topic squarely and criticize them Muslims alone.

When Christians misbehave, then we call them out too.
Have you not seen here that other Muslims tacitly support the religious terrorists fomenting trouble in Illorin over the Isese issue? Face them and leave Christians alone for matter wey no concern them

Gosh!

No difference. You are all slaves

As long as both religions were introduced to Nigeria through slavery and colonialism, you are all same

Offpointng:
$100 per hour?? Don't be delusional, no job anywhere in the world would offer you such amount hourly

It’s okay. Lol

sweetgala:
Menial job paying 20usd/ hr. You do realise minimum wage in most US states is less than 10usd.

Don't let anyone lie to you, abroad life nah struggle

Most?? Seems you are jonzing. Some people do menial jobs in US and earn like 1,500 per week or even more

sweetgala:
Please tell me what job is paying 100usd an hour. People would just be giving fabu online sha

People earn more than that. What you should focus on is how to achieve that or more.

This is barbaric! Only a black slave will prioritize foreign dead religion over their own culture.
And this is not about ilorin alone, same stupidity is everywhere in Africa. Both Christians and Muslims. You are all insane

If there’s a religion of peace, it is Ifa that has allowed peace to reign. The Christianity and Islam has caused the world much more blood shed and agony. Most especially the religion of terror in disguise of peace

Money to share

Nonsense comparison

People earn 20 to 100 dollars per hour

People do two jobs

People at the end of the month earn between 4k to 20k or even more.

If you do the type of work you do in Nigeria in the US, you will buy a house in one year.

Zxcvbnmghtr:
From what you earn how have you been useful to the society? You think it until you are a billionaire?!

I will list the few things I’m doing in my own capacity.

Early this year, I paid for 5 people to learn a new skill. iT skills.
Three of them have gotten certified as at now and one of the three has gotten a job as an IT analyst.
They are not my family in anyway.

I have some people in my extended family I identified as less privileged that I credit every month.

This is from the little I have. If I have more capacity, I’ll do more things as stated on this thread. It is not hard, I’ll do go my home of origin, create a program for the elderly where they can be getting food stuffs and monthly stipends with free health care. Help fund agricultural startups, help sponsor someone to good school … so many things to do to eradicate pain and poverty. No one deserves to live a terrible living condition

Zxcvbnmghtr:


Jobs, but a lazy Nigerian expects billionaires to be 'FATHER CHRISTMAS'. The same kind of mentality when your childhood friends, or school mates discover that you have made it big time. The next thing is a entitlement mentality. Same applies to family members especially extended family. They start to complain that you are not generous 'ENOUGH'..

Dangote refinery for example has been providing jobs since contraction. Just and example. But what the lazy once want 'DASH-DASH-DASH' 'FREE-FREE-FREE' everything.

Of course they are all into charity but the op is just being a typical Nigerian.

I didn’t want to reply you but let me do so you can learn. I am not hungry, not broke in anyway. It is a typical black man that once something does not affect you then it’s none of your business.
You mentioned Dangote, do you know the richest people outside the country own companies that pay fat checks. How much does Dangote pay his staff? He pays them like slave Labour. This is a supposed billionaire.
And yet Africa is the poorest region in the world. The companies that compensate well in Nigeria are even owned by foreigners.
Do you know how many families have been taken out of poverty by Shell, Chevron and the Totals ?
Is the African man just greedy, or wicked or just stupid? Or a combination of stupidity, greed and wickedness

twosquare:
Why do you have a government...?? nonsense

Keep attacking me, I am not broke, but I can’t stand see people suffer around me.
I am not a billionaire but I know what I’d do if I become one.
It’s not everything you wait for government to do you for you. So because government did not do my road, and I have billions, I won’t renovate my road to standard and move on.
Or I’d wait for government to help beautify my streets?

Mane did not wait for his govenrment when he spent 500k pounds to build a standard health care facility in his village.

We are not even asking them to dash everyone money, go to your place of birth and do something tangible. Not donating money during terrorist attack or natural disasters

Tohsynetita1:
During Corona, Jack Dorsey donated 28 percent of his wealth. there is a man called Chuck fenney, that donated all of his wealth when he was around 90s. He said his goal is to die poor.

The black man has a serious problem of selfishness.

As long as I am okay, I don’t care of others
As long as I dey chop, nothing concern me with welfare of others
I can assure you, there’s no way you have these American billionaires and they will watch the schools they pass through suffocating of infrastructure or their place of birth with people suffering and living a very poor quality of life. Oyinbo fit donate his entire wealth to rebuild

John Paulson donated 100 million dollars to NYU

John Paulson is not as rich as dangote.

But here in Nigeria, we have billionaires that passed through schools like Unilag, OAU, ABU, UI and the hostels are in a pathetic states, deteriorated infrastructure.

Just 500k dollars will renovate these school hostels

Tohsynetita1:
Abi now. it's mindset of stinginess. And most things they use those money for are frivolities. I made an idea on Agricultural platform some days ago that. if a billionaire or millionaire buys like 1000 acres of land, give youth an acre per person and mandate them to plant any tree crop which he will be the one to give them seeds or seedlings and the management will be funded by the tenants, and after fruiting, the tenants takes 10 percent of the income and the owner of the land takes the rest. Some people came against me saying it's impossible. But I now realize they want us to be idolizing them that's why they prefer to spend those monies on frivolities.

Sadio mane is worth 30million dollars, dangote is worth about 10 billion dollars.
The project Sadio mane has done in his home town alone is more than what some governors have achieved in Nigeria

To sponsor some of these projects you mention won’t pinch this people. It is not hard. Just 500 k dollars yearly will go a long way in taking several people out of misery and empowering them.

People should check how American billionaires donate.
Some donate hundreds of millions of dollars. That’s a country where the cost of living is far higher than Nigeria.
Just 1 million dollars donation in Nigeria will shake ground.

LikeAking:
That’s the diff between a black man and a white man. Most of those Naija billionaires have not even done anything for dia families and communities.

He na all man for him self.

Look at Sadio Mane’s project in his home town. He has done a lot. And he is not even as wealthy as this Nigerian billionaires.
He is using his talent to pay back to his community and place of birth. There’s a reason he was born in that place and not everyone can have the opportunity he has. His light will surely shine in the universe

LikeAking:
No waste ya time.

Just hustle make ya money..

Nobody Dey pep anybody in reality.

That’s the problem why people are still suffering in Nigeria and Africa

Do you know how many Nigerians benefit from some scholarships donated by American billionaires.
Some people get full funded scholarship with monthly stipends to study in US universities. And from there get jobs that change their family story and taking a family out of poverty.
The universe is give and take. The phone you are using and the advancement you enjoy today is because some people worked hard to solve human problems.
We are not equally gifted. But there’s a reason you were born to a particular family, come from a particular place and region.
What’s the essence of having a billionaire from your village and nobody in the village can boast of one thing they benefit from the billionaire. It’s bad and terrible.
All these money won’t follow anybody outside this planet. Maximum you spend 100 years and depart, when you could have made at least few people smile

The wealth you have, knowledge or power should not be used for selfish reasons or yourself alone, help humanity. It won’t cost you too much.
The whites use their knowledge to bring innovations that we enjoy, they use their wealth for charity as well and we all run to them.
The only way dimensional poverty can be cured in Africa is everyone giving back no matter how little to lift one another.

BoldBrainz:
The only Nigerian Billionaire I hold in high esteem is Tony Elumelu.

It's not about cutting cheques for victims of one disaster or the other. Or making oversized donations when invited to high class events and gatherings like Arthur Eze.

Elumelu is building future generations of tech-savvy entrepreneurs. His scholarship schemes are unmatched in our today's society.

You get my point.
It’s not donating in Covid or flood disasters or when boko haram strikes.
It’s contributing real life solutions to problems

BItt:
Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar

The rich man went through alot of thinking and sacrifice to be where he is today.

There are stories the rich man won't tell you... To become rich is not an easy journey so you don't expect me to spray my wealth to the benefit of a certain poor persons... Just because they are "poor". Na me born them?

When we talk of money, some of these guys are worth billions of dollars which is trillions of naira.

To do a community project in their village maybe an elderly care may not pass 100 million naira. Which is barely 150k dollars.
Or to sponsor like 5 brilliant people from their community every year to top schools in US and Canada may not pass 200k dollars. These are what whites do that even some of us benefited from here.

Life is beyond you alone, a little act of kindness will brighten your light in the universe. All the money you make won’t follow you to the grave, you will die and leave them behind. Let’s make the world a better place for one another. Aye o le

Naso Nigerians be..

When you make an no carry your own do Father Christmas. Everyone stingy for Naija..

There’s a kind of money you will have that any additional money no longer matters.

If you get naira 50 million today, if you don’t spend wisely, it will finish fast


If they increase it to N500 million naira, it will still finish if not properly managed

If I give you 10 billion naira and you have investments generating you like 200 million naira net profit every year. It will take much more time and extreme carelessness to go back to nothing

Now imagine having 50 billion naira and lots of investments.
Your kids and family are all established for life.

Some people are worth trillions of naira in assets and investments all over the world. They are on auto run and can never ever taste poverty to their 4th generation. Tell me how giving will reck you?

Go to oyedepo’s village, the place looks poverty with terrible roads and no basic amenities. Yet he is a billionaire at least in naira.

The only thing he achieved is to make sure his house is the finest in his village

MaxInDHouse:
The book mentioned names of people whose descendants today aren't black skinned so if you want black saints then be the first and let your people idolize you when you're no more!

Among the billions of blacks that have existed till date, no single one is worthy to be called a saint?

DrGoodman:
Sometimes, I keep laughing online when I see people who borrowed data only to come and boast online that my tribes people are all on forces list and your tribes people are not.

Such unemployed people will still go to bed hungry and buy paracetamol to give to their parents who needs adequate health care by qualified doctors.

I cry for the youths of this contraption.

It’s so bad bro.

I watched Jagun Jagun and I loved the ending. This people turned us against ourselves to fight and they live in billions

I am not yet a billionaire, but from the little I have, I know what I do in my immediate community.
Early this year, I sponsored 5 people to learn a new skill. Just five people within my capacity and circle. Three of them have gotten certified already and one has gotten a new job with it.

There are many things 1 million dollars can do for a community. I tell you that Americans donate as high as 100 million dollars to charity. These money goes to elderly homes, schools and scholarships that even Nigerians benefit from

But it’s so sad. The PTDF scholarship, you will still see children of billionaires taking it from the poor

The person supporting Obi is not your enemy, the person supporting Tinubu is not your enemy, the person supporting Atiku is not your enemy, your enemies are those who have sold the soul of your country and still oppress you in little means

To renovate some school hostels won’t take up to one millionaire to do.

But Nigerian students live in hostels looking like krirkiri cells, deteriorated facilities, disgusting toilets and bed bug beds

Yet some billionaires pass through this schools

Are Africans just self centered and wicked!
Yet na we go church and mosque pass

There’s something called giving back.

Nigeria boast of having some of African richest men and women.
Richest African man is a Nigerian
Richest African woman is a Nigerian

We know of foreign billionaires, they provide funds for scholarships that even Africans students benefit from. They even dash start ups in Nigeria money

Please I need to be enlightened, is dangote doing anything for his immediate community

What has Folorunsho Alakija done for her immediate community?

I may be wrong, but is there any fully funded scholarship from any of these people

Billionaires in US donate a lot to charity and community development.

Some schools have been renamed after philanthropists in the US. They give out funds as much as 100million dollars and even far more

If our billionaires can give out just 1 million dollars to sponsor some community project, Nigeria would have been a better place

Some projects could be;

1. Elderly homes
2. Free health care facilities
3. Funding start ups
4. Scholarships for students

Please in what ways are our billionaires giving back to the community?

Any idea??

Not audio donations but real life projects that you and I can benefit from

Africa need liberation

1. Spiritually: leave the white man religion alone!!!!
You were never respected in the Bible nor Koran.

Maybe if you know how your ancestors were converted. You will know religion is simply a tool of mass control. They tortured your people and told slaves to respect their master. It is written right in the Bible that you slave should respect your master.

Nothing was said good about Africa in the religion they use to divide and conquer you. The only time they mentioned Africa was a racial insult. “Can an Ethiopian change his skin colour” and secondly was the plague of Egypt (nothing was said good about you)

Religion is one big factor that divides Africans till date. Why must we decide how we rule ourselves based on religion practiced. A Muslim president, a Christian vice… over a religion of your slave maaster.
Terrorism is biting africa hard, religion we did not know anything about


2. End Divide and Rule imposed by the Europeans:

Before you can do this, you need to unite. Dump religion to see clearly the real enemies using religion to control you. Drop white man religion and see the real enemies that have mortgaged your souls.
Imagine nothing like Christianity nor Islam in Nigeria. Just imagine how United Nigeria will be. Decisions can be made void of religious divide


3. Economically: Africa should start producing finished goods from their raw materials.
Enough of exporting our resources and importing finished goods. We need to build our production industries and factories here. We need our refineries

This can only happen if those greedy people collaborating with the europeans to enslave us can be found and brought to justice. Hang them and burn their bodies to ashes

SemperFid:
If there were just Africans in the world, would we know what crude oil is?

We're not very mentally developed to manage our affairs.

You could have said this better. The one they have sucked is enough. Let Africa breathe

It’s sad that you will see Nigerians in Uk doing care jobs
Nigerians doing dirty jobs in Canada or Us just to survive.
You will never see an arab, Chinese, Japanese do those jobs.
M

Honestly, it’s sad

Europeans came to africa and found abundant resources.

They shared africa among themselves with no regard to the owners of the soil

Africa was nothing but a mining ground for them

They sold blacks and traded them like a piece of commodity

Of the biggest thing they stole, it is your soul and spirituality

Then they gave you a fools gold (Islam and Christianity)

Century after, Africa is not still free.


They have left Africa but still colonizing us spiritually, mentally, economically and politically

Cocoa is found in abundance in Sierra Leone, Ivory Coast and Ghana. largest exporter of cocoa yet they suffer of hunger.

Oil is abundance yet we suffer energy crises and instability in fuel prices

We have uranium yet no energy

Name it, diamond, gold, iron and steel, copper.

But wherever this resources are found, the nation suffers to gain from it. They all import the finished goods while exporting the raw materials

Think about this and tell me you aren’t pained to be this exploited. Are we fools?

Even if you japa and get citizenship of this foreign countries, you will feel the pain deep down.

Look at the Arabs, the countries with the oil enjoy the benefits of it. Saudi Arabia export its own crude oil and has its own refineries.

The Europeans did not hold Africa to its balls without the support of some greedy few individuals among us. The ones who sold their brothers to slavery are the same ones benefiting from this mass genocide of the soul of Africa. Just some few greedy families that won’t let africa produce what they have.

They will rather collaborate with their white master and suck a whole nation dry.

No one is innocent, from the north to the south, west to east. these few families are eating fat why millions suffer.

Keep quiet old scammer

MT:
Wacky storyline. Nice visual effect.

Yorubas don't fight like Spartacus in war or in a fight challenge, the ending is so predictable and the story line is so tacky - A bad replica of "the woman king" movie.

Femi Adebayo, dressing like a roman king, which I found so alien - should not have acted that part - Chatta or Lalude could have been spot on.

Wars were fought like Romans army with swords. Yorubas used charms to fight in their wars.

All in all, for me:

Story Line - 20%

Visual Effect - 65%

Anikulapo movie still remains distant number 1.

Haba Aboki! I don’t see any Roman connection in the movie. And you need to check history again, Yorubas fought with swords, hoes, farm tools, bows and arrows. And even use shields.
My great grandfather was Jagun Jagun and he uses swords, bows and arrows and charms.

Cheerful giver

By the way, kudos to Yoruba movies. They have been on constant fire back to back this days

Just finished Jagun Jagun and it was lovely. Hope they continue to push the standard
