TMKsouth: Don't flatter yourself. South Africans were just reacting to a twitter newsfeed just like they do with other world news. No one's seeking out Nigerian news, most SA people can't even point to Nigeria on the world map.
And it's not about flatter. Y'all jump on nigerian related news quicker than you jump on anything else. You know this,I'm not saying people shouldn't react to news,they can. Na we dey show ourselves,i nor blame them. But you been here with some other south Africans testifies to this fact. Deep down you know
TMKsouth: Don't flatter yourself. South Africans were just reacting to a twitter newsfeed just like they do with other world news. No one's seeking out Nigerian news, most SA people can't even point to Nigeria on the world map.
Haha..cmon,that is just pure lack of basic geography and utter lack of intelligence. It's not rocket science. You can't be educated and not know where countries are located in Africa. And now you say most SA people? That is really poor.
chatinent: Rather than lampooning every president who is inaugurated, if you were the president of the federation, how'd you make the country what you castigate against?
Let's discuss.
Nigeria is a closed chapter. Mindset have rotten finish. Let's sell this shit and use d money buy island
TMKsouth: On Friday news of Hushpuppi's arrest for fraud began to filter through the SA Twitterverse. Some Nigerians also joined in the conversation.
https://twitter.com/AdvoBarryRoux/status/1271300216491302912?s=20[/quote]Nigerians sef, ain't y'all tired of reacting to south Africans hating on una sef. Like it's old news,na normal thing. Like just read it as news and move on. Las las hushpuppi na fraudster,and dem talk wetin dem talk. Let's talk to ourselves,na we go change the image of the nation nor be them
TMKsouth: Tell your criminal brothers to leave SA first then I'll leave Nairaland. How many of them took the offer from Air Peace to leave SA?
Here we go again...an opportunity for you to vet out your anger..please face the nigerians in your country at least and leave the ones in nigeria. You people dislike us so much that you are always in our business,I don't remember nigerians living in nigeria giving a Bleep about what goes on in south africa. It's getting old already bra,I know how some nigerians living in SA makes y'all feel with the way they live,however take it up with them. Leave the ones in diaspora alone mehn damn
Officialgarri: Disappointed that hush is Yoruba. Yorubas do not encourage fraud, cultism, murder, drugs and any other forms of crime. Yorubas do not justify crime by claiming other tribes are worse at it. They don't rejoice when a criminal evades justice just because he is Yoruba. No, they expose criminals and let him face justice
ExAngel007: Nigerians in Enugu state have beheld a rare occasion after triplet brothers got married to triplet sisters in the state.
The event took place over the weekend in Ngwo. Photos from the rare occasion is now going viral after hitting the Internet yesterday, June 7th.
The triplet brothers, Kenechukwu, Chinedu and Chukwuebuka, got married to triplet sisters, Okwuoma, Dumalu, and Chinwe and the occasion was witnessed by intimate family and friends.
The brides who are not identical, all rocked white ball gowns, while the grooms all rocked navy blue suits.
How on earth are these people triplets...at least two suppose resemble na..this is the farthest from resemblance,I have ever seen in my life. Both sexes by the way
bigmodo: I am an As and I am getting married to an As. I love this girl so much that I am moving forward to marry her.
We have done our introduction and our traditional marriage is next month. I know the complications of an As marrying As in the issues of children they might give birth to. But I have no choice. I want to marry the love of my life.
I pray you are fortunate in the children you eventually give birth to but if you are unfortunate,you see that love you are talking about will wither when the reality of taking care of hbSS child hits yall
Nigerians braved the rain to protest the murder of George Floyd and to call for an end to racial injustice.
The protest was organised by the Black Lives Matter Movement in Nigeria (BLMMN). The convener, Josephine Okpara, stormed the streets of Victoria Island, Lagos, with other protesters.
They carried placards with words such as "Black Lives Matter" and "Justice For George Floyd" written on them as they condemned the killing of African Americans in the United States of America.
The protest comes after George Floyd died on May 25, 2020, after Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for nearly 9 minutes during an arrest.
Speaking on behalf of the group, convener, Josephine Okpara said the US must put an end to “white supremacy and build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on black communities by the state and vigilantes”.
Nigerians across various social media platforms were not impressed by the protest. They mentioned that we have more pressing issues in the country to protest and they criticized the protesters.
Mumu people,bunch of idiots....if only they could put same energy when politicians are looting money,and girls getting kidnapped,raped and killed naija for better. They are protesting black lives matter,at least fight your own battle first
ValCon888: Any list where Cassius Clay a.k.a Muhammad Ali isn't the no.1 boxer of all time is a useless list.
I'm shocked beyond belief the list doesn't include Joe Frazier.
The Baddest Man on the Planet, the only boxer who throws punches in bunches, and the youngest heavy weight champion of all time Iron Mike Tyson is not even in the top 10.
The clowns that compiled this list are high on angel dust.
This is based on statistics not fan favouritism or skill
CaptainFM1: I understand you. The sleep paralysis the ops is describing is not that of Medical but Spiritual sleep paralysis. I guess that's where we differs.
But is there really a spiritual sleep paralysis tho?
CaptainFM1: You don't know what sleep paralysis is. It doesn't happen while you are awake. It usually start like a dream, but while your brain wakes up to the reality of it, your body is still being held back. You want to come out of the dream, but the body is still being dragged to it.
Often it's usually about life and death dream. Your brain comes out of the dream but your body is being dragged for atleast 10 to 30seconds while you struggle physically and spiritually to rip yourself out of the dragging/pulling forces that want to take you to the other side.
When you finally open your eyes, you would know you have fought a battle. You will usually see evidence of your battle with the forces. Most times, you will see excessive sweat....and it doesn't matter if the AC is on 16degC.
The battle is not when you wake up. It is the few seconds that your brain wakes up and your body is held back. Now that your brain is woken it needs to do something so fast and so drastic within that short period they are dragging your soul. Most people call on their supreme spiritual being at this instance. You just need to settle that scores immediately your brain wakes up lest you cross over.
Bro sleep paralysis happens when you are awake pls,its like this,you wake but your brain is still sleeping,you only see all these hallucinations if your brain was dreaming when it happened,if it wasn't dreaming you don't see anything( this is where your theory comes in). I have had sleep paralysis,where I wake and I can't move my body, like I will literally be looking at my ceiling and bed but can't move my body and after lying for a while,my brain wakes too. I never for once saw myself going to heaven or being chased,I see real things in real time,I just can't move. Sleep paralysis is basically paralysis when falling asleep or after waking up,that is the definition. So as a matter of it does happen when you wake. Sleep paralysis doesn't start from sleep realm,it starts with you waking up,all those once people see,is when they are already awake but their brain is still stucked inside dream..so those things come out as visions or hallucinations
IceColdVeins: Medicalnewstoday.com defined sleep paralysis as a feeling of being unable to move, either at the onset of sleep or upon awakening. The individual's senses and awareness are intact, but they may feel as if there is pressure on them, or as if they are choking. It may be accompanied by hallucinations and intense fear.
In Icecoldvein's opinion, sleep paralysis has a plethora of arguments surrounding it. Researchers uphold various scientific hypothesis that represent sleep paralysis as a biological phenomenal, some even insisted that it only happens when your brain wakes up a few seconds before the peripheral nervous complex (the neurons in your body parts), which in turn triggers slow responses to the brain's information by body parts. On the other hand, Spiritualists maintained the notion that sleep paralysis is designed by demons and can only be remedied spiritually.
I used to have sleep paralysis a lot until it stopped, when I embraced some spiritual antidotes.
Below is still the scariest sleep paralysis experience that I ever had......
I heard my ex's voice yell a threat at me, I was scared and tried to get up, realised I was six fts below ground level with a shiny grave moulded untop of me. And suddenly, the skies changed from it's astonishing high resolution filters to the dreadful black and white effect, as it coughed a heavy thunder down my grave....My mummied body immediately knew it was in for it......I tried fleeing from the horrifying dream, never knew a worse comeuppance awaited me. I was thrown into a solid 40 seconds of sleep paralysis.... before I opened my eyes, hissed and mumbled 'Una papa. I don wake up'
Dear NL, What are your experiences and beliefs about sleep paralysis ? Your inputs may put some people experiencing it at ease.
Kindly share!!
This una story here nor be sleep paralysis..some of y'all need to pray . In sleep paralysis,u are suppose to be awake but without control of your body simple..all this I went to hell,I went to heaven,I was been chased..dese are dreams
Gundel001: Hi good day my fellow Nairalander please I will really need your experience about this issue. Please help me read to the end as it is a little bit long.
My junior brother is 14 years old and to be sincere I haven’t seen anybody as dull as him. I don’t know if it is natural but I just can’t understand why someone at that age could still be struggling with very simple arithmetic. My brother can’t write 1 – 150 correctly at 14.
He seems too dull; note he attends one of the best private school around our area, though I know you might say maybe education is not his way but even if you want to drop out from school you should know some basic things like money, time, multiplication and so on but my brother doesn’t know anything I must say, even to write his name correctly is a problem. It is making everyone unhappy lot of money is being spent on lesson teachers and other things for him still no improvement.
I am a student of one of the top federal University in Nigeria same as my other siblings even at both secondary and undergraduate level we were always above average so I can’t say his problem is genetic. I really wants to know what is the problem with him nairalanders. After I finished secondary school I once taught some pupils in primary school though there were dull ones too there but with time I could see improvement unlike my brother i always try to teach him from time to time but it kind of frustrating as he doesn’t even seems like he will ever grab anything and he doesn’t behave like he wants to learn anything.
He makes it seems as if he is not interested book or arithmetic at all …we all tried talking to him endless time to always read any time he his less busy but he never does except he is being forced.
He rarely talks, he loves to keep to himself always, he doesn’t have interest in anything unlike we the others that are die hard football fans, most times my mom will tell him to even go out to play and mingle he will not still want to go, he prefer to stay at home seating all day without reading or doing anything, even if it is to draw or play football he wont.
This matter is not making everyone happy at home we don’t even know the solution to his problem again, as in imagine having a child that is 14 years old that doesn’t know the difference between 17 and 71 it is just so bad…..
We don’t know if his case is mental or spiritual. please nairalanders I know there are child experts in the house or anybody who have experienced something like this before what do you think is the problem and possible solutions to the problem your contributions are welcome.
Please help me push this pleaseeeeee
He just might be autistic. And there is no problem with that,there is always a way to get through to him. You just have to be patient with,study him and try to figure out how to get through to him
IronGalaxy: Yep, you have the South African company to thank for showcasing your sub-par music and movies, on the flip side how else do you think we also got to know your Wizkid? I mean duh?
As for being second to Ghana & Nigeria... (Laughs hysterically)
You know what,I retract all my texts. This is stupid,arguing about best music in Africa and all. I don't have anything against y'all mehn, i'm just here for good music. I wish evrybody, south africa,nigerian and the rest of africa well. The artists are all doing a good job and I wish them all well. Let's just enjoy good music that's all
IronGalaxy: Yep, you have the South African company to thank for showcasing your sub-par music and movies, on the flip side how else do you think we also got to know your Wizkid? I mean duh?
As for being second to Ghana & Nigeria... (Laughs hysterically)
I know it's hard to figure out how a country could thrive on one sound and still be globally considered music giants as compared to you guys . it's called uniqueness,every genre has it's market worldwide..and afrobeatz is gaining ground massively outchea. I think maybe you can't just accept that afrobeatz is in fact a genre,that is why it is the way it with you. You feel you are superior because we do afrobeatz and y'all do numerous sounds. Music is by numbers/charts not by sound. You can rap all you want,so far no one listens,you are singing for your own pleasure
IronGalaxy: Yep, you have the South African company to thank for showcasing your sub-par music and movies, on the flip side how else do you think we also got to know your Wizkid? I mean duh?
As for being second to Ghana & Nigeria... (Laughs hysterically)
It's sub-par yet we are still doing well globally than you. You are pained cos with just a single sound,we buried your whole country with its numerous sounds. South African music my ass, you people are just singing for y'all ears only. How many south African artist be do people evn know worldwide. You need to travel,and enlighten yourself,don't be too buried down south and think the world revolves around y'all flashy videos. South African company showcase our music you say, and we have used that opportunity to garner more global recognition than you. You should cover your face in shame, you have all the means to push your music to the world stage but it hasn't been coming tru has it. That should tell you that you are singing rubbish in that country,non of y'all have good taste of music anyway. And hell to the modafucking yes,you are way behind ghana and nigeria in times of talent and music. Don't get it twisted,you can argue with your keyboard
donjazet: Funny how the African mind and mentality works.
Once again, every body is thanking "God" for the works of fellow brilliant human beings. If the baby had a permanent skin defect, people would say it is the work of village people or transferred curses or better yet, a punishment from "God" as a result of a sin committed much earlier and suggests she goes for "deliverance" or intense spiritual guidance.
Now that she has used medical science to solve the problem, as Usual God takes the glory while the doctors and pharmacist are relegated to the background.
We really need to work on our mentality for the sake of the next generation.
We need to shed this ultra religious superstition which we hold dear and embrace scientific knowledge. Only then can we progress forward.
Bro I understand what you mean but don't say it like that. Let them thank God,we don't do it for the glory...we(doctors) are only alive because God made it so. When I treat patient successfully,I thank God too personally. God is the one and true healer
ValCon888: Tomorrow one olodo will tell you to go to the hospital as if it's everybody that can afford to consult a doctor. There are lawyers, doctors, engineers and every other type of professional you can think of on this forum.
There's hardly any answer you cannot find here. But you need to have the humility to ask and the patience to suffer fools gladly.
A big congratulations to your child and to your family.
FP material.
Shut up. If you cannot consult a doctor in this century for what is wrong with you. Don't have kids,try and get money first b4 u use ignorance to kill the baby. Gtfoh
IronGalaxy: No one Said you aren't doing well Oga, focus lol. Before rap what did you know South Africa of? You knew of Hugh Masekela, a world renowned jazz musician, you knew of Brenda Fassie, arguably the biggest pop artist Africa has ever seen, Lucky Dube, the biggest raggae artist the continent has ever seen. Again do you see the variety of genres here?we've always had that. We dont rely on one sound
You might have the numerous sounds and genres but at the global stage...y'all are second to Nigeria and Ghana musically with just that one single sound (afrobeat). You cannot tell me you think y'all are out there in the world. We wouldn't even know majority of y'all artist if not for dstv
JaceBlaze: Can you post a video where a Nigerian artist sold out a huge arena in SA?
Even your current golden boy,Burna Boy was told to stay away when he tried to rape our ears with his awful music.
Its one thing to have the best industry, it's another to have the best sound. Its like ur league compared to bafana bafana. You have the best league and awful national team. You have all the genre of music,but dey are below par at world stage. That was why I said only ur rap music is out there
IronGalaxy: A big music country? Come on' now. You and I know that's exactly what we are, you are now arguing for arguing's sakes. Yes Grammies, isn't that the pinnacle of music achievement? Did you say our hip hip is recent? Ha ha ha! You really think because Nasty C is recent so is our hip hop industry? Dude South Africans has a hip hop culture that goes back to the late 80's, groups like " prophets of da city" in the early 90's, the likes of Skwatta kamp, Optical Illusion, Cashless Society" etc through out the 90' s and 2000s Mcees like "Amunition"etc. In the hip hop game you've always been infants
How? That u had it doesn't mean it was worth listening to. I don't know these niggas and you don't know ours. There really isn't no reason to argue no longer. I wish your artists success,lemme get back to my work,they ain't paying me nothing to argue who gat the best music outchea. You gat the best music right,fine!
