Salmoneus: Ok, so where would they get the basic electricity to power this mega plant?

ketoprofen: And ibadan is what? A poverty stricken place where the indigenes claim all though own nothing, keep it going, man.

Am calling Enugu here, i nu la?

wetin dey worry this village boy.

geeez: Banks typically move to regions, states and cities where the money is

There's no Federal Character in that.

How come a typical Igbo bank like Fidelity has 4 branches in Oyo while it has only 3 in Enugu and Zenith Bank has 9 branches in the old Yoruba city while Enugu can only boast of 6?

abi o. , . . . thats my point jare. even firstbank have 31 branches in Oyo state while they have only 20 in their almighty Enugu state.

ngozievergreen: dis one is even on a long tn.
Mr. Biggs still dey reign? Am reporting this post of yours to my friends

If u are dull enough not to understand my point, then am afraid to tell you that you're a dullard for life. lemme give u another example, and if u'll get it wrong again,

Stanbic IBTC Branches (Another private org)
Abuja: 13
Oyo State: 16
Kaduna State: 11
Kano state: 6
Rivers state: 9
Enugu state: 2
You gat the point now?. . . . .if not, then contact a Doctor Asap.

geeez: But why is there a KFC outlet open in Ibadan and none in any city in the SE?

The GDP of Oyo State is higher than that of any state in the SE

The landmass of Oyo is almost as large as that of all the states in the SE combined

These are unarguable facts

And just in case you don't realize, businesses like Shoprite, KFC and even Mr. Biggs do intense business analysis before opening anywhere

If any state in the SE can't attract KFC at this time, it only shows that the disposable income in that region is extremely low

Absolute truth

The people that are celebrating their governor for planning to build office for shoprite Imo state. . . . . . are the same people that are condemning shoprite ibadan. bad belle people

thelonestranger: Bros your name sounds like a drug for skin disease
Mugu plenty for Nairaland o. If Shoprite, an international company has 3 shops in AFFLUENT Lagos, have 1 shop in AFFLUENT Abuja , have 1 shop in AFFLUENT Enugu , and are opening [size=14pt]2 shops[/size] in "POVERTY RIDDEN" Ibadan , then they must be a foolish company indeed. Go figure.

no mind those idiots even, them dey think say na politics as usual, abi wetin concern multinational company with politics, no be to make gain? e.g checkout the number of branches mr biggs have in the following cities:
Lagos: 64
Abuja: 12
Ibadan: 9
Enugu: 6
PH: 4
Kaduna :3

ba7man: Ibadan has its good areas, it has its bad areas but it also has something that makes it an investors destination....A large population that has purchasing power. Keep laughing at the brown rusty roofs while the city keeps developing.

apart from the population . . . . the hospitality of Ibadan people is second to none.

There is another Shoprite massive construction going on around ringroad.

And to those saying rubbish about Shoprite coming to IB, u guys are insane. If the likes of Glo, Gotv etc could start from IB. . . . so whats the cry about Shoprite.

Pure crap . . . ., the song is rubbish, the lyrics is very watery, wont even waste my mb on downlaoding the song or watching it on youtube. I will wait for mtv.

mad song. ., . I love the fact dat its slower dan the original version

relax guys, I dont even think UAE citizens pay taxes

Lmao. . . the simplest question ever

Undressed Adam and Eve Still Alive in Taraba, Nigeria

This may look like a screen shot from the popular movie 'The gods must be crazy' but hey!! this is real and yeah, they literally still live in the stone age. Poverty and diseases ravage their land, like locusts.
A good number of them still dress in the manner of, the Biblical Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden -- stark Unclad -- with fresh leaves for a little covering. You are welcome to the top of the Gerinjina mountain in Gashaka Local Government area of Taraba State.

It was like a story from Mars when a casual talk to the hearing of this reporter indicated that there was a community up the mountain that lived worse than those of the Koma people who were discovered in the mid-1980s by a group of National youth corps members in the then Gongola State, now split into Adamawa and Taraba states. While the Koma community resides in Adamawa State, the new Stone Age people are in Taraba State.


They are called, the Jibu people and they are descendants of the Kwarafa Kingdom who lived for centuries in nine communities scattered around on the mountains in Gashaka.

Historical accounts have it that the people lived together with their fellow brothers in the kingdom until about 1807 when Fulani Jihadists invaded the kingdom.

They were said to have run to the mountain top where they now live and are completely cut off from other tribes, and by extension the whole world. Not even the activities of the colonial masters reached them, largely because of the difficult terrain of their new abode. The mountain top is characterised by rivers, deep gullies and huge rocks.

Just like any other group of human beings, the Jibu people have their ways of life. These include collective circumcision of boys born within the same age group, a ceremony performed with the use sharp objects.

It is considered a test of strength and character for their boys not to cry during the ceremony. The circumcised are kept on bamboo beds and covered with fresh leaves that are gathered and burnt after the wound has healed.

For a young Jibu man to get a wife, he must serve the family of his bride for five years. Nonetheless, the marriage is determined by the capacity of the woman to conceive. This is measured by a dried long firewood that is set on fire for at least three months, within which if the woman does not become pregnant, the simple communication is the gods do not want the marriage.

Pregnant women work on the farms to the day of their delivery.

They have a communal life and are ruled by the Waziri Garinjina, Tann Shidin Zunbi, who confirmed in an interview with the Nigerian Compass on Saturday that maternal and child mortality rates are high among them.

The Jibu people are neither Christians nor Muslims. Rather, they believe in their own gods and the ancestors.

In an event of violation of their natural laws by any individual, animals are slaughtered to appease the land. It is also a similar story during every cropping season. The harvests are brought before the Waziri for sacrifice to the gods, after which their brand of liquor is prepared for everybody to drink in merriment. Incidentally too, the Jibu people believe that some gods are not friendly with women. Thus, throughout the period of ritual preparations, women remain indoors to avoid being exposed to the gods who could be harmful to them.

When our correspondent visited Gerinjina, their condition of living was worse than that of the much-talked about Koma people. There is no access road. They drink water with animals from the same rivers. In their scattered settlement system, there is no school around except for some missionaries who have a thatched space for that purpose but is yet to have any student. After a day's job on the farm, their women still have the task of grinding raw corn with heavy stones before food is ready for their male counterparts.

Camaro, Lamborghini Aventador, Ferrari FF.

Mercedes SLS Gullwing

POLICE in Dubai have taken delivery of a
fleet of exotic supercars capable of catching
even the fastest felon.
After unveiling a £300k Lamborghini Aventador
last month
, authorities have now added a Ferrari, Bentley,
Mercedes and a £1.6m Aston Martin One-77 to
the force.
All vehicles, in full livery, are capable of doing
over 190mph and some motorists are thought to
have actually BEGGED to be arrested in the
hope they can be taken back to the local nick in
one of the mega-buck motors.
Beat street ... Ferrari FF

The UAE is known for its multi-millionaire
petrolheads who drive around the wealthy state
in some of the world’s finest cars.
The police recently announced anyone caught
exceeding 125mph would face legal action and it
is hoped the presence of the 700bhp supercars
will make boy racers think twice.
Bling ... Bentley

Deaths on the road are a common occurrence in
the UAE, with one person killed in a traffic
incident every 26 hours.
Most of the deaths are caused by speeding,
driving without a seatbelt and driving while using
mobile phones.
Sleek ... Lamborghini Aventado
Officer Khalifa Abdullah Mohammad, 25, has
been patrolling Dubai in the Lamborghini police
car for the past six weeks.
He said: “I have issued about 30 tickets to
drivers blocking the traffic and parking in
prohibited places.
“But the most amazing thing about driving such
a car is how people look at you with a big
smile.”

The Nigeria Baptist Convention (NBC) has
described Osun State Governor Rauf
Aregbesola as a gift to humanity.
The Convention President of the Nigeria
Baptist Mission, Rev. Olasupo Ayokunle spoke
yesterday at the closing of the 100th National
Baptist Convention.
He hailed Aregbesola for preaching tolerance
and love among people of all faiths.
The convention passed a vote-of-confidence
in the Aregbesola administration.
Aregbesola, a devout Muslim, was
pronounced an Evangelist of the Baptist Faith
and conferred with the Honourary Doctorate
Degree of the Nigeria Baptist Institute by the
Convention President.
He was also pronounced the Commander of
the Royal Ambassador of the Nigeria Baptist
Convention.
Aregbesola, who was the special guest of
honour at the convention, urged members of
the church to always show love to others and
imbibe the teachings of Jesus Christ.
He said Nigeria would be a new nation, if
love takes the centre stage in all religions.
The governor, who led all members of the
state executive council to the convention,
thanked the church for the spiritual and
material blessings it brought to the state
through the centenary convention.
Attributing the relative peace in the state to
respect for the values of all religions, he said
the people hold these values in high esteem
in defiance to the divisive antics of mischief
makers, who exploit religious differences to
generate crisis.
Aregbesola thanked the church for its
intervention in the education sector.
He said: “The demonstration of love without
discrimination that Jesus Christ came, lived
and died for all should be emulated by
everyone, if Nigeria must fulfill its mission as
a nation.
“As a government, we are similarly doing our
part by strengthening the Omoluabi values
that bind our people together. An Omoluabi
will keep the peace at all cost; he will be
good to his neighbours at all times and will
extend the hands of fellowship to a fellow
human being in all circumstances.
“The fundamental goal of all religions is to
make us better persons and keep us together
in a better society. Religious leaders have a
responsibility in bringing about a better
society. They have a duty towards God and
their human followers. They are very much
like the shepherd. They lead guide and
direct. It is their responsibility to impart
moral teachings and the values of God into
their flock.
Rev. Ayokunle thanked the governor for his
love and support to Christians.
He said the Baptist Mission would continue
to hold him in high esteem.
The highlight of the programme was the
decoration of the governor as the
Commander of the Royal Ambassador of the
Nigeria Baptist Convention and the signing
and presentation of the Certificate of
Occupancy (C of O) for the convention
ground to Rev. Ayokunle by Aregbesola.

A gunman reportedly attempted to
assassinate the leader of Bulgaria's
Turkish ethnic party during a televised
conference on Saturday. The leader of Bulgaria’s Movement for
Rights and Freedoms (MRF) party,
Ahmed Dogan, was assaulted by a gunman while on stage at the National Palace of Culture (NDK) in Sofia,
according to the Sofia Globe. The
assailant, 25-year-old Oktai
Enimehmedov, climbed onstage and
held a gun to Dogan's head, but the
gun reportedly got stuck and was unable to shoot. SCROLL FOR PHOTO The Times also reports that the gun appeared to misfire, giving Dogan
enough time to bat away the gunman's arm before he
was assisted by security guards. Dogan and the gunman wrestled on
stage before security raced to apprehend
the assailant, amid loud boos from the
crowd, according to The Sun. Enimehmedov was also reportedly beaten by delegates and other officials in the crowd, according to Noinite, a
Sofia news agency. "He was not in a
good shape, there was blood on his
face," said Prosecutor Nikolay
Kokinov. "He told us his version about
what motivated him, but I will not discuss it at this point." Along with the gas pistol,
Enimehmedov was also armed with
two knives. The Bourgas native has
two prior convictions, including
causing bodily harm in 2006 and drug
possession in 2010, the Sofia Globe reports. As for the 58-year-old Turkish official,
he is doing fine. "Ahmed Dogan is in
good health. Everything is under
control," MRF official Ceyhan Ibryamov
told Reuters on Saturday. The liberal MRF party represents ethnic
Turks and Muslims, who make up
roughly 12 percent of Bulgaria's
population, according to Reuters.
Dogan is seen as one of the most
influential political figures. The conference was scheduled to elect a
new leader to succeed Dogan,
according to the Associated Press,
who is stepped down after nearly 25
years. Lyutvi Mestan, the man expected to
replace Dogan, told the AP "the true reason for the assault was the language of hatred and
confrontation." PHOTO: Image grab from video shows a man

Dogan, left, leader of the Movement for
Rights and Freedoms, during his
speech at his party's congress in Sofia, on Saturday Jan. 19, 2013.
