If only dummies would think outside APC/PDP partisan politics and understabd that our Nigerian network coverage isn't 100% and our cyber, internet and all network Secuirity isnt all that.
A $100 RAT on darkweb , a good FUD crypter and knowledge of social engineering would completly jeopardise the system . You just spoke from the little you know. Do you think the totality of Nigerians don't know about cyber security? |

Celebrities › Re: 5 Nigerian Grammy Award Winners You Probably Haven’t Heard Of by donsheddy1(m): 2:14pm On Apr 29, 2019 |
LazyGold: The Recording Academy Grammy Awards is the most respected award every musician aspires to earn as testament to the impact of their career.
Well, we have some Nigerian Grammy award winners but you probably haven’t heard of them because it takes a rigorous research to find out some of this artists, as some are foriegn based with just blood ties to the country while others are old and probably no longer in the entertainment industry.
Some might have the illusion that its due to there racial differences as to why Nigerians or Africans are not really nominated or awarded the Grammy award. But as it says, its just an illusion because the Grammys had the African culture at heart when the started the ‘World music’ category in 1991 with Africans holding a significant number in this category over the years. There by striking off any illusion of racism and gives a clear picture for Africans who decides to pitch into the recording academy to include a proper category typifying new-fashioned African sounds.
So with thorough search and research we bring to you, the 5 Nigerians who have won this prestigious awards;
Sikiru Adepoju | 1991 (Planet Drum) | 2009 (Global Drum Project)
Sikiru Adepoju (pronounced Seek-ee-roo Ah-deh-po-joo) is a master of the talking drum and many other Yoruba percussion instruments. Born in Eruwa, Nigeria, Sikiru hails from the traditional lineage of Yoruba talking drummers culturally referred to as Ayan which means “one who has descended from drummers lineage,” and began playing under the tutelage of his father Chief Ayanleke Adepoju at the age of six. Along with his brothers Saminu and Lasisi, Sikiru accompanied the family’s talking drum ensemble for several years.
After moving to the San Fransico Bay Area in 1985, Sikiru joined the influential and pioneering Nigerian percussionist Babatunde Olantunji and his Drums of Passion. This marked a lengthy period of high productivity from Sikiru which saw him recording and performing throughout the world until a year before Olantunji’s death in 2003. During this period he was introduced to Grateful Dead drummer, Mickey Hart, who has called Sikiru “The Mozart of the talking drum,” and employed him on many of his personal projects including the Grammy award winning albumsPlanet Drum (1991) and Global Drum Project (2009).
Sade Adu This is the queen of the list. She has 4 Grammys in her inspirational career and they were won in 1986, 1994, 2002 and 2011.
Musician, singer. Born Helen Folasade Adu on January 16, 1959 in Ibadan, Nigeria. Raised in London by her English mother, Sade developed several interests as a teen, including singing, fashion design and modeling. She sang with a few local bands before signing with Epic Records and recording her first album, Diamond Life, in 1984. A huge hit in her native England, the album also had mass appeal across the pond thanks to such singles as “Smooth Operator.” In 1986, she won a Grammy Award for Best New Artist.
Sade’s subsequent multi-platinum albums, Promise, Stronger Than Pride andLove Deluxe, established her as a top-selling soul and pop artist. She took a new route with her 2000 album, Lovers Rock, which was released eight years after Love Deluxe and incorporated a more mainstream sound. The record, and particularly the chart-topping single, “By Your Side,” helped her win over new audiences. Two years later, the album and ensuing tour inspired her first live recording, Lovers Live. Sade returned to the studio and released her sixth album In February 2010, Soldier of Love.
Sealhenry Olusegun Olumide Adeola Samuel
Seal is very Nigerian and even visited the country recently. He has 4 Grammy awards, winning 3 in 1996 and 1 in 2011.

Elvis778: na wetin me still dey wonder oo, these guys thinks everything is in the Bible. The popes only compiled the most important holy books around 500AD, and called it THE BIBLE. They know more than we do cuz they have more scripts of which they didn't add to the Bible You're correct. That's why they're able to deceive so many people today. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Why Don't Catholics Eat Meat/flesh On Good Friday? by donsheddy1(m): 9:15am On Apr 19, 2019 |
Socrates05: Abstain from eating meat is Not a sin to Christian But a sin to a Real Catholic members. Some Catholic may eat meat but a good Catholic faithful we not eat a meat. Some have not been eating meat since the beginning of the lent till date. If you read the Bible very well about the Passover Night you will understand the reason behind the not eating meat by Real Catholic faithful. Jesus Christ used his blood and body to set us from our Sins instead of the Lamb they used in the old days. Have you seen the bruise and enough beating they gave him because of my your sin and mine. He was crucified, death and buried and rose again. God is Great indeed. Did you know what happened in his 1st,2nd ,3rd fall of Jesus Christ. He was cut off out of the land of the living, stricken for the transgression of my people. His weakness was extreme and the cruelty of His executioners was excessive. To cut the story short, if you are a Good Christian that Love Jesus Christ truly truly is good to Ash Wednesday and Good Friday Not to eat a meat. It just a sign of telling Jesus Christ that we Love Him and Adore Him. I'm still searching for the sense in your write up. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Why Don't Catholics Eat Meat/flesh On Good Friday? by donsheddy1(m): 9:12am On Apr 19, 2019 |
ExAngel007: I have been wondering why Catholics don't eat meat on Good Friday.
What's it significant? Are there any curses or consequences if one disobey?
why do they eat fish instead of meat?
Where and when did the Bible says we shouldn't eat meat on Fridays It's just paganism. Easter celebration itself is not of God. Who told the church that Jesus died on a particular day? The only enjoyment I have on days like this is the holidays and nothing more. Telling me Easter and Christmas is biblical or you have to abstain from meat on a certain day is biblical, just know you're an idol worshipper. |
