OMG!!! Nigerians are so ignorant. Y'all should do a little research about the history of Catholic papacy and understand what a pope is. They're wolves in sheep's clothing. They appear solemn but are tiger in secret. Catholic Church holds more secret than the Illuminati and free mason. Aww!!! It's an arm of free mason. The Vatican has more gold in it's many countries in this world combined and many of them came from the poor just like every other pastors. Go to Catholic Church and they collect offering 5 times and pay tithes too. They do every other things our Pentecostal pastors are doing. The Pope has their percentage. They endorsed slave trade and colonialism and supervised execution of Africans. The papacy has mastered the Machiavellian acts of power and they use it with all perfection. They're not different from our pastors rather more demonic than them

LexngtonSteele:
Nice article. Long but well written.

I used to criticise OBJ while in power but a friend whose mum was a teacher said Lecturers and teachers would crucify me if they knew.
He failed in Electricity generation and was super corrupt, but several of his policies are what we enjoy today.

Time has proven that OBJ was a far better leader than his successors.

Yardu'a started well, but unfortunately had health challenges. GEJ for sure was an incompetent buffoon. We had high hopes for PMB but so far, he's been a huge disappointment.

that you had high hopes for PMB shows you totally have no brain

I think she has an Omnibod attached to her Pvssy. You can see the click and the reaction that goes with it. If actually she's got one, there's no way she can control it when it's triggered by whatsoever conditions programmed with it

Is this Delta?

cmpunk:
I have a strong conviction it came from somebody's fish pond. lol

No. This is Delta for you. In Warri those years, we used to see them hatch and start developing till they get big. It's in all the gutters and any water body you can think of. I've went to a compound next to K. W estate at Ovie palace road to fish. It was someone's flooded compound with grasses and lots of fishes all over the compound.

Tapout:
Ignorance at its peak
op those are fishes from someone's fish pond... Possible effect of overflow from excess rain fall or pond leakage

How can fishes come out from the ground, did u plant them??

Modified ** lord have mercy!!! I just discovered that 90% of nairalanders on the first page actually believe op

don't argue what you don't know. Have you ever been to the riverine areas in Delta eg Warriors? I've seen catfishes hatch in June grow till they get very big till around October when it gets dried and those not killed start sinking themselves in the soil

Had similar experiences in Warri. The place was flooded during rainy season and when it was getting drier, the catfishes started sinking themselves in the muds got dried up. If they died or survived it till the next rainy season is what I can't tell.

So much ignorance and misinformation in display here

Abagworo:
That's the problem created by 2015 election strategy of PDP even though they lost. The truth is that Nigeria is presently divided between pro-Buhari and anti-Buhari with pro-Buhari being majority.

I'm highly disappointed in this your comment

This is a big insult on the Niger Delta.

Wow!!! Very cheap. Does this mean it's going for less than 30k in Nigeria? Hmm

Ehiscotch:
If it was the EFFC that is leading the current spate of investigations I would have been skeptical but how about the US investigations?

Why hasn't he refuted that?

That's why we will never move forward. Defending thieves on the grounds of inflated figures.

Did I hear you say US government? So according to you, the US government is credible source? There are obviously too many kids on Nairaland

What kind of reportage is this? From this reportage, it's very difficult to comprehend if naira really appreciated or depreciated.

Who are the badoos and what do they stand for? How come they were able to get so much members and so much influence so suddenly? Why has the police not said anything about them or released any information?

history2902:
Yoruba is to Edo what Broken-English is to English.
A fluent speaker of Edo will have little to no difficulty understanding Yoruba dialects.

not true at all

They have the same worldview and idiosyncrasy as us. But just like us, they have a hard time understanding central Igbo.

No part of Ika speak central Igbo.

Zoolezoo:
So, that is why they will be part of Biafra?
You are funny.

The possibility of that ever happening is slim. But being with Odua republic is slimmer

fratermathy:
A stronger argument doesn't mean he's right. I conceded because I really don't know much about Ika history for me to prove any point.

The truth is Ikas ethnicity is not up for debate. We know who we are. We know our history and our origin. He's been peddling lies and basing everything on language as if Ika is basically Igbo.

pazienza:
No acculturation took place in Ukwuani, Ika or Ikwerre.

It is unprecedented in the history of humans, for a people to completely discard their language for the language of their neighbors without the use of force.

There was no Igbo empire to have forced Igbo language on those groups, and even in cases of acculturation, there are usually evidences of dead language, but there are no such things for those groups.

Ndiigbo also traded and had interactions with smaller groups like Ogoni, Idoma, Ekoi, Annang and Igala( Ibaji) , and non Of those groups are Igbo speaking today, few of them that speak Igbo at all, do so as a second language.

On the contrary, Bini was an imperialistic power, it is only logical that the Bini connections these groups speak of has everything to do with Bini imperialism rather than real ancestral relationship.

Did you just say unprecedented in the history of human for a people to completely (wasn't completely) discard their language without the use of force? Did you write that out of ignorance or out of cheer mischief?

Are you for real? What evidences of a dead language do they usually have? What exactly do you mean by that? And how are you expecting a dead language if the original language is still in existence and being used by a neighboring group? Isn't it the way it is with the Bayelsa and Rivers group that were originally Ijoid but now greatly Igboid?

And for your third point, you sound so unintelligent to expect everything to work the same in all circumstances. What a straight line way of thinking.

haryomikun:
and a good dancer
wizkid isnt sound lyrically either baba


tekno is better

I can't believe you just said that. I can't imagine that. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but some things are obvious

Tekno is a good producer that's all. He's not in the same league with wizkid

Emu4life:
first world war claimed more than 17 million souls, WWII claimed 55 million lives ( were Muslims the cause of those wars?? or did dey fight in that war??), were Muslims d ones dat bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki??
Muhammad Ali (GOAT) was imprisoned bcuz he refuse to take part in America's bombing of Vietnam...... Yet u are saying nonsense. Currently, Are in korean peninsula trying to cause anoda havoc again and u ar still saying nonsense. U can take ur hypocritical ideology elsewhere cuz am not buying dat.

Muslims cant ever stop being ridiculous. Who's comparing a war with terrorism? Muslims are always fighting wars between themselves. That's not my business. They can fight all they want between themselves in the Middle East. But terrorism is a different ball game.

iluvpomo:
How many Christians do you see shouting "Praize Jèsus Christ" before beheading someone?? ZERO
One the other hand, you and I cannot even count the number of Muslims that will shout "Alläh Hûakbár" before beheading/blowing up/running into/burning innocent people.
Just face it, Islám has a cancer and the earlier you "moderates" stand up and face the reality and work towards stamping it out the better. There is no point trying to fight Christians.

Don't mind him. He's been brainwashed or deliberately being stupd

Emu4life:
Dont even try to claim wise!! Datz just a verse from MANY. D thread is talking about a distorted version of Islam being preach in d prison and d guy above said its not distorted but the real version So i quoted a real verse from d bble and u are saying its a parable, Can u see ur HYPOCRISY.

I said it's a parable or it's a parable? Are you well? Whose words were those commands? Was it Jesus's or a different person? You sound bitter.

ollah1:
Lol, it's always parables when the Bible is quoted but it's never like that in the Quran. Hypocrites everywhere

you sound dumb. This is not about quoting a verse of a book mischievously. What are the teaching and tenets of both religion? What's their medium of converting new members? What are their tenets and their beliefs? Do you want me to quote the full story of the chapter here?

OK here it is

11 While they were listening to this, he went on to tell them a parable, because he was near Jerusalem and the people thought that the kingdom of God was going to appear at once. 12 He said: “A man of noble birth went to a distant country to have himself appointed king and then to return. 13 So he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas.[a] ‘Put this money to work,’ he said, ‘until I come back.’

14 “But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him to say, ‘We don’t want this man to be our king.’

15 “He was made king, however, and returned home. Then he sent for the servants to whom he had given the money, in order to find out what they had gained with it.

16 “The first one came and said, ‘Sir, your mina has earned ten more.’

18 “The second came and said, ‘Sir, your mina has earned five more.’

19 “His master answered, ‘You take charge of five cities.’

20 “Then another servant came and said, ‘Sir, here is your mina; I have kept it laid away in a piece of cloth. 21 I was afraid of you, because you are a hard man. You take out what you did not put in and reap what you did not sow.’

22 “His master replied, ‘I will judge you by your own words, you wicked servant! You knew, did you, that I am a hard man, taking out what I did not put in, and reaping what I did not sow? 23 Why then didn’t you put my money on deposit, so that when I came back, I could have collected it with interest?’

24 “Then he said to those standing by, ‘Take his mina away from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.’

25 “‘Sir,’ they said, ‘he already has ten!’

26 “He replied, ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but as for the one who has nothing, even what they have will be taken away

Here is the 27
. 27 But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.’”

Emu4life:
May be dey are talking about (Luke 19 vs 27) " bring my enemies who refuse dat i shuld rule over them and SLAGHTER them b4 me... "

Are you serious? Is this the best you can do? Who's commandment was that? From who to who? Do you know the meaning of parable?

Kowor:
I remember the soup, and loved it too especially when grandma mixed yellow garri and fufu. Damn, I miss those times.

I miss this so much too. One of the most delicious soups I've tasted.

If we are to follow the Biblical law, it's not right to go to the church when you are unclean or defiled. A woman in her periods, anyone that touched her, anyone that has sex or anyone that touches him/her is to remain unclean until sunset. But now, we don't keep those laws. But the question is, where exactly were these laws abolished?

There is no distorted version of Islam. He is teaching them Islam. Islam is jihad and jihad is islam. People see A and call it B because calling it A will be unpleasant to some people. I ain't like that. Call a spade a spade. Without jihad and murder there is no Islam. BTW, if he poses so much threat, murder him and safe the world some stress.

Zoolezoo:
First there is no definite PROOF that Oduduwa was an Edo prince, that you are quoting the Benin side of the story doesn't make it true, since that is Benin's version.
2 - You as an Ika can enter Biafra with your Ika communities, but don't be acting like you are now a spokesperson for Benin people.

The fact that Benin People are vehemently against the breaking up of Nigeria because they know that if that happens, they will have to go with Oduduwa. When a referendum for independence occurs to chose between Oodua and Biafra, you honestly think Omorogbe from Benin, Balogun family from Ibillo, Bello from Auchi, and Adesua from Siluko will chose Biafra?
Kwantinuu.

tell an Edo man to be part of your Odua republic and he will remind you about what led to the creation of Midwest. It's almost like a rehearsed answer because that's what most of them say. It's not an option to them. Don't fool yourself.
