omenka:Come on ...why is somone's right to freedom of expression causing you guys this sleepless nights? |
lygn19:See what? Are they armed....Don't any one has the right to freedom of expression? |
The cause of this situation could have been the same with this similar one in Benin where an Austrian based Benin lady was gruesomely murdered by her home based boy friend. Click herehttps://www.nairaland.com/2064402/trader-arrested-gruesome-murder-austria-based |
The police should move in quickly. There are scenarios as to the cause of this situation. Without insult intended, this lady is or was a native of Edo. That being the case, international prostitution mafia/debt could be behind this dastardly act. She's apparently a resident or Irish citizen and may have been on a trip to settle issues with some disgruntled fellows. It could as well be that she suffered sudden health issue which incapacitated her. Whatever, the police should do something quickly. |

VirginFinder:Ok, for the last time. The historical circumstances of Ilorin; cross cultural acculturation has made your number 1 question not worthy of a response. It has rendered the second question useless. Good night! |
VirginFinder:You got nothing to say. So shameful. Just respect people's opinion of their own history! |
Real identity of the Sarakis from the late patriach My mother is from Iseyin in Oyo State, while my father is from Ilorin in Kwara State. My great-great grandfather originated from Mali and I am talking about some 150 to 200 years ago. And they are Fulani and that is where we got our Fulani connection from. My great grandfather settled in Ilorin preaching the religion of Islam. A section of Ilorin came from Gwandu and they were religious, but my people came there as practising Muslims from Mali with their own Quran. In fact, the Emir and I used to joke that we had our own Quran and that nobody gave us Quran. My great-grandfather brought our own Quran to Ilorin from Mali to Agbaji where we settled. The Agbaji quarters is about 200 to 300 years old. Over the years, religious piety and devotion have led the prohibition of drumming (in whatever circumstance) in the area. But because of our connection with the Southern people, a lot of Yoruba are always in Ilorin and so we speak the same language. If you look at the Ilorin people, the real Ilorin people like Saraki for example, the culture and their ways share affinity with those of the far Northern Nigeria. That accounts for the difference you observe between us and, particularly, people of the South-West, despite the existence, now, of Yoruba as a common language. I leave people to say whatever they like about me. Some people even say I am from Ogun State and some even say I am from Togo but I know where I am from. Even, not long ago, I had a letter inviting me to join in the formation of a Mali-Fulani Organization and that I should be its chairman. Learn to respect people's history and stop exposing the wounded pride the more, thereby making yourselves look more stupidily desperate! https://www.nairaland.com/311148/saraki-fulani-mali |
VirginFinder:Poor you! I could see you're not conversant with the news about the sarakis....the patriach, Olusola Saraki. Read more about them so as to stop insulting yourself in the social media! |
VirginFinder:Come on! Lecture me more on your stupidity 'Fulanis will never bear Yoruba names' Right? Then, how come the Agboola in Gambari's name when the Fulanis are allergic to non Fulani names Lecture me more on the Yoruba origin of the name Saraki...oh, Seriki...bunkum! Why must you people drag in other culture to patch up a hollow and failed 'sophisticated' ego mission? Allow the Saraki family be, please! |
VirginFinder:.....And Prof. Agboola Gambari? Why is it neccessary for the self validation....Even when the family have made official statements on their not being Yoruba? |
VirginFinder:Please, what is that "above" position in Nigeria politics that the Igbo have not attained before the Yoruba man ever nursed the ambition, name it? Another careless statement... |
President Buhari? Probably the most befitting ID....Will definetly stick ![]() |
NDPVF:I'm quite aware of all the topograpical advantages this port has over any port in Nigeria. But Nigeria being what it is ..... |
The Igbo trooped into Lagos to live in part due to the several hundreds of kilometers their business men had to travel to clear their goods at the sea port. Therefore, It made sense looking for somewhere around to live and do businesss after several tiring trips. If Lagos had been say 80 or 150 kilometers to Igboland, most of these traders and importers wouldn't have had the need to live in lagos as they would simply go collect their cargoes and return to their bases. I pray Akwa Ibom Deep seaport on completion would not be held down by the political "red tape" that made other Eastern and Mid western ports redundant. An Aba, Nnewi or Onitsha importer would simply rush down to Ibom Port, collect his cargo and still attend to his clients in realtime without hassles. I dont foresee a suffocated city like lagos spring up at Ibom, instead the domino effect of the port operations will see development spread and spring into neighboring states. The Eastern and the middle belt maritime corridor will be great. This is good |
SeductiveAngela:Miserably intantile! |
SeductiveAngela:My friend, don't dabble into what you don't know about simply because you've got something to type with. How do you know Dr. Ndubuisi Wakadibia is not Ikwerre himself? |
millionboi:If you can't manage 500K, so also would 10 Million not do It's all about self discipline and skill...start small and build big |
The South Easterners have such a tradition - very old - to the extent their youths are the most financially independent in the country Ekiti government is already looking at the eastern model too Love it |
These weaklings called the "Nigerian military" can be funny In the face of Boko Haram aggressors that have humiliated you over the years, you want to pick on a soft target to revalidate your broken ego at home Real shame |
How could a man (Buhari) who's yet to commence governing take the credit of what he knew nothing about? |
alfred5:No one deserves to have a nuclear facility around his region, Igboland or not! Don't you know that Itu in Akwaibom is close home...Probably less than 15 km to Arochukwu? |
I feel sad he died. May he rest in peace. But....Just can't understand why people should lay down their precious lives for the fraud and doom called Nigeria? |
South Africa’s high court has barred Sudan’s president, Omar al-Bashir, from leaving the country in adispute over alleged war crimes that could undermine the authority of the international criminal court (ICC). Bashir, who travelled to Johannesburg for a summit of African leaders, is wanted by the UN-backed court for alleged atrocities, including genocide, committed during the Darfur conflict. The Guardian view on the international criminal court: no turning back on Omar al-Bashir Editorial: Surprise moves to detain Sudan’s leader in South Africa make this a test case for international law which the ICC cannot afford to lose Read more The high court in Pretoria issued an interim order preventing Bashir from leaving South Africa until an urgent application to force authorities to arrest him is heard. A further hearing has been scheduled for Monday after the Southern Africa Litigation Centre (SALC), which promotes human rights, filed an urgent application to overturn a government decision to grant immunity to all delegates attending the African Union (AU) summit. The prospect of the Sudanese president being formally arrested appeared to recede on Sunday evening, however, when South Africa’s ruling African National Congress (ANC) said the ICC was “no longer useful for the purposes for which it was intended”. The ANC also called for a review of ICC statutes to make them applicable to all UN members and ensure a “fair and independent court for universal and equitable justice”. African states accuse the court, which is based in The Hague, of only targeting political leaders on their continent and failing to bring to justice those responsible for war crimes in the Middle East and elsewhere. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jun/14/sudan-president-omar-al-bashir-south-africa-icc |
A retrogressive nation...they're getting what they wanted. Thus, It's good for them...why not?!!! |
A Hospital is not about building big fanciful structure cos that contributes only about 5 percent of what it takes to run a successful and reliable hospital. Continous funding, modern equipment, materials and very well trained staff is the name of the game. |
nationwide1:Like i told them, this is not a breaking news. Orji Kalu as governor was the first to do it when he appointed the son of the Ogbomosho monarch. In 2003, the governor of Sokoto state appointed an Igbo, Mr Alpha Umeh as his media assistant. That's just it. |
Johntobi56:Cheap shot, i thought you've got something upstairs ![]() |
Johntobi56:You're a stu.pid liar. I'm talking about a yoruba government mobilising to send her citizens to acquire survivalist brains in the heart of Igboland ![]() I understand your feelings...wounded pride ![]() |
Johntobi56:And how has the "yoruba brains" worked to the extent Ekiti state is about shipping her citizens to Aba and Onitsha to learn how to be real brainy? ![]() |
