CultureRe: Some Igbo/yoruba Word Used In Urhobo/Isoko Language by Donjowebs(m): 5:21pm On Nov 08, 2015
Ewa in Yoruba means beans and same in Urhobo, but there are Urhobo words for beans which are peculiar to "Us" i.e the ésha is a different specie of beans while the white one is called "iré". So depending on your dialect/part of Urhoboland you hail from they could mean one and same or different, as for me I am from Olomu and iré and ésha are distinctly different.
CultureRe: Some Igbo/yoruba Word Used In Urhobo/Isoko Language by Donjowebs(m): 5:12pm On Nov 08, 2015
I believe all languages borrow from other languages at a point in time, so no language can't b quite unique to itself without some form of interference from other languages. Again we should understand that languages evolve around the environment in interacts with e.g the Portuguese call gold "Oro" and that is what the Urhobos also call it probably as a result from interactions with the Portuguese. Finally, let's all realise that language is dynamic and not static.

PoliticsRe: Tribunal Cancels The Election Of Nyesome Wike, INEC To Conduct Fresh Election by Donjowebs(m): 1:06pm On Oct 24, 2015
With this judgement it simply reveals the A/Ibom tribunal was economical with the truth. Was the election that brought Wike in free and fair? no!
Would Wike have won the election without rigging? Yes, but not with the margin appropriated to him by the INEC. I am from the Niger Delta which is pro-PDP, so that is why I find it numbing for the senseless rigging our politicians engage in, as a Nigerian all I want is free, fair and credible elections to move our country forward.
RomanceRe: October 24th: My Introduction Date That Never Came Through by Donjowebs(m): 9:36am On Oct 24, 2015
This is a thorny matter in today's "Christianity" which is predominantly dogmatic and denominational more to the detriment of "followers" . You don't want me to marry your daughter/son because I don't belong to your denomination, yet you won't segregate me when it comes to business? Why don't you classify money Protestant or Catholic?

This is simply why we are not moving forward, citizens defending narrow and parochial interests. By the way who cares if they do not PMB's portrait in the offices? How does it change the price of petrol, exchange rate or stop corruption?

LiteratureRe: The Reading Culture Has Gone From Bad To Worse by Donjowebs(m): 8:57am On Aug 10, 2015
Nice write up @Op but @all what's the way forward to solve this menace?
For me this problem is a symptom of our bastardised educational system, I remember in the early 90s students in SS classes acted stage plays and I personally one day looked forward to being on stage myself. When my time came teachers and students alike weren't interested and since then that reading culture has been plagued by some many hydra-headed monsters bleeding our educational system dry. I still have hope though, because recently at a school where I taught we organised a debate between the SS 1 and 2 students and we were amazed at what we saw, more gladdening was when those in primary came to us insisting they wanted their own debate. We obliged them and we were blown away by what this pupils did during the debate, I was speechless! And it dawned on me all these kids need is encouragement, an example and a little nudge and challenge and you will see them flying out the blocks.
