The instances you are citing are different. Kswitch doesn't take music seriously, because his family rather he takes a different part from Olabanji. Hi-Idibia is not as talented as 2Baba. Soft majorly started as a producer and doesn't have great abilities in singing or as an Artist.

More importantly all the names you mentioned clearly are more talented than their siblings, and never bragged about helping the whole world... I appreciate your point though. Teni and Niniola is also an example.

Fact remains that M.I is wealthy but will rather watch his brother who is more talented and gifted than he is suffer because he want to keep his position as a Chairman and Big Bro. Such person has no locus standi to brag about helping people.


BRO for the fact u dont get to hear any latest work from Jags, doesn't mean dude is broke. Go to Jos, bro is doing well not poor. what Jags needs is Rehab. he smoked and injected dope stuff into his system, and it is doing more damage than good.

An easy Bleep @ 8 years old? undecided

TBH, I don't think it has anything to do with looks because I'm just okay-looking. There're people better looking than me, but all the crazies seem to zero in on me for whatever reason. It gets scary sometimes. One time a guy at a house warming party I attended with my cousin, threw an insanely dramatic tantrum because I was leaving. I've never seen this person in my life, only spoke to him briefly because he was sitting next to me (I took an empty chair next to his) & yet somehow he felt entitled to more time with me. He went absolutely bonkers, he had to be pulled away. That was frightening. Mind you, there were many gyrating ladies there, so he could have chosen to be crazy with any of them undecided

Truth.

You'll hardly find such sights on federal routes in the North.


how many months of rain do they experience should be the question . Most bad roads are as a direct result of endless torrential downpour for months in the southern region, hence the difference in outcome.

That being said, out leaders on a general note, need do more to curtail such incidences.
The federal and state need to work in tandem, so as to mitigate and bring these shameful kind of sights to a premium.

kponkedenge:

Why blame Ighalo? Most of you like football but you don't really understand the game.
We don't commit men forward when attacking, Ighalo most times is isolated in the opponents box all by himself, surrounded by 3 or 4 defenders and you know how physical African football is.... So what do you want him to do?
He has even tried in scoring 3 goals already in this competition.....do you think it is easy? You should have blamed the coach for taking only Ighalo as a striker for this tournament, because I can't really count Onuachu cos he doesn't know how to make use of his legs.
But as it is now, the deed has been done, and the only thing we should be talking about now is upping the way we mark because the Algerian play like the Europeans and they are a high pressing team.

so Henry Oyekuru and Victor Osimhen are defenders abi? And the above are even better than that Onuachi of a supposed striker. Henry in particular had an awesome season yet he has not featured in any of our matches. that's bad

Back to the topic, let remove gods are not to blamed by chinua achebe(of blessed memory) and let's see if he will be relevant .I think the answer is capital No.
Wole omo soyinka is the real deal from here to the whole world.



Igbo pls take heart ,dont kill yourself for yoruba matter.

You ended up shooting yourself to the foot. first of all, there is nothing like the gods are not to blameD but the gods are not to BLAME by your kin's man Ola Rotimi.

I guess you wanted to say Things fall apart which by far is Chinua's most popular works.

Dont be hasty to drink your tea, hence you end drinking it with a fork. cheers

maestroferddi:
All these turanci you are writing here do not add up.

Don't tell me you are this naive or uncircumspect....

Achebe never had the Nobel for Literature conferred on him for one main reason: His acclaimed stance against the white establishment in their attempt to depict black Africa as an inferior race. He was renowned for challenging long-held views that African literature is not pristine and that African writers had little literary merit.

Achebe dared the supremacists. He hinted severally that he didn't need the prize to underline his standing as one of the best men of letters of all time.

In. terms of depth, technical and cultural significance, reach and universality, Soyinka knows there was no time he could have held a candle to Achebe.

Where are Soyinka's Things Fall Apart, No Longer At Ease and Arrows of God?

How many Nigerians have heard of Jero Plays, Kongi Harvest and The King's Horseman (hope I got that title correctly)?

Achebe is undisputably one of the greatest literary minds ever to come out of Africa.

You don't have your magnus opus translated to over five dozen languages for nothing....resa ipso loquitor...


in terms of popularity,Achebes books were more popular especially Things fall apart, which could be understood normal everyday parlance.

But Soyinka is worshiped literally in the academic circle ,because his works were so deep and the use of words so cunning, that it will take one with vast academic prowess to decipher the true meaning of his works, there by making him unpopular in the local arena.

take for instance, Opera Wonyosi, I will advice u read that play if u haven't, cos that was the play we used as our final year production of the department of theatre and performing arts of ABU Zaria. Actualizing his works on stage,is the biggest factor, it took us weeks,some casts it took almost two moat to internalize their role and interpret it on stage. I was one of the major characters, Captain Mack the knife,but in the end it was worth it.

my verdict both are good, both u could relate much easier with Achebe than Soyinka. even Ola Rotimis works can be easily understood and can easily be translated on stage or film as the case may be. But if u want to challenge ur literally abilities ,choose Soyinkas works

I like Idris Elba but i used to hear that he's the crush of many women and ladies. Then, like he got one most sexiest man award sometimes. Not hating but till now, i'm still yet to find any special look in the man. I can list many Nigerian celebrities who look better than Idris.

If na Drake now, i wouldn't dispute it. We all know he is a fine man or Kiernan Jarryd Forbes and others.
Upcoming artist Teddy A even puts Idris in his place. Even young thug looks better than this guy. grin

HML all the same. May the usually celebrity marriage divorce not hit your home.

But please, no derogatory words, sales, adverts, spams or posting. Other than these, fire on!
