@Eko Ile,  dayokanu and all Tinubu folower,

I am shock that you OMO ODUAS are bring this disgrace on the Yourba people all because of politics.

So Awolowo's name can now rubbished, just to please Tinubu.  

Apart from winning most of the SW states to ACN, what has he contributed to the Yoruba People .

Look no Youruba leader from Shoyinka to Gani(RIP) to Ajasin (RIP) will dare disrespect anybody in Awolowo's family.

If Tinubu and his bunch of followers continue this trend i bet their fall is near.

Pride goes before a fall.

[quote author=~Bluetooth link=topic=690733.msg8521100#msg8521100 date=1308116850]I'm sure Awo will be regreting why he married that shameless woman who no wan die.[/b]when she has finished dining with notorious armed robbers like Akala,Oni and oyinlola who were disgraced out of office and gbenga daniel;the biggest thief in yorubaland. . . .? How are these people better than Tinubu or the woman wants Bankole as the next Asiwaju of yorubaland.E ma gbami o[/quote]@Bluetooth

I don't know were you are from.

[b]But that statement of your is totally uncalled for . So you have the courage to insult MAMA all because of TINUBU.

That shameful.

Outstrip:
emmatok I am not even suprised because it is the sort of comment I expect from you. Have these "innocent" parents forgotten that their grand child is growing in that woman. I guess they do not care and that is very typical of the wickedness that can be justified by Nigerians to "protect" themselves. Who says the woman will get cancer? Who says that something cannot even happen to their son? You people never cease to amaze me with your way of thinking. The fact if the matter is that parents are wicked and very misinformed. The man himself is a punk and to be honest it might do the girl good to just move on. I do not support abortion but I cannot judge a woman that makes that choice. It is her life and I will not be there to help her pick up the pieces.
You can have reservations because she is AS and so is your son or maybe even reservations because of moral issues but to say because her mother is sick that she is now cursed is enough to shake your head in disgust. The boy should be embarassed at his parents divorce. I personally pity any woman that will marry into that family.

I don't understand your post at all.

Are you blaming the parent for the pregnancy? I hope not.

They are not married, yet they got themselves pregnant due to their youthful whatever.

And you think the parent must marry them because of the pregnancy.

When it comes to hereditary diseases, the parent has the right to protect their sons/daughter.

That ideology is not limited to Africa,  must rich and elitist families world wide do such things.

RoadStar:
I beg to differ. It rather indicates confusion, lack of ideology and political harlotry.
In the UK and US most states or Districts typically vote Democrat/Republican, Labour/Conservative/LibDem.

We are only 12 years into Democracy and some SW states have gone from AD - PDP - ACN
The only state which has been more stable is Lagos and has seen the most progress.

You are wrong.

There is a big difference between people who know how to choose their leaders, and the people who don't know.

Yoruba People know how to choose and reject their leaders.

While some are stuck with the same set of leaders all their lives.

For example OYO State is yet to get a two term governor for the past 12 years.

Now that is the type of democracy we need.

Ability to change your leaders when they mess up.

TO THOSE TINUBU WORSHIPERS.

I will like you to know that the YORUBA PEOPLE are the most sophisticated electorate in Nigeria as at  today.

Remember it was AD then PDP now it is the ACN, it is not about OBJ  or Tinubu.

It about the YORUBA PEOPLE. Tinubu and ACN should be grateful to them.

<<article removed completely>>

I can see some people here jumping to conclusion by castigating the innocent parent.

Any reasonable parent will always look out for thier children and not allow thme jump blindly into any relationship.

It is easy to claim love when you start a relatioship, but when you start treating sickness, paying the bills for the next 30 years that love will disappear!!!

This is the main reason why some religious organisations insist on medical test/examination before wedding their members.

@ post

Tell your friend to go for medicals, to confirm if that cancer is hereditary,if she is going to inherit it or not  .

Then she can confront her Bf with the test result.

That decisions is left  to her and not NL.

KnowAll:
I am not campaigning for anyone I am only saying if Mr President is thinking of injecting new bloods into the system somebody who has ample experience in a particular Government department would be a starting point , that would be a good asset worth considering.

And secondly it looks like you are new on NL, if you know me well(I enjoy writing, and also enjoy controversy).  I wrote on why Saraki would be a good President for Nigeria, 2 weeks later he threw his cap in the ring, I wrote nice things on the virtue of Buhari, 3 weeks later “ BB” wild-fire gained momentum and became a “catch phrase” I wrote on how Tura Yardua was holding the nation to ransom and how we are being Governed by a Dead man, 4 weeks after the National Assembly woke up from their slumber, I wrote on some other controversial individuals that many people do not like, like Akala, OGD,  General Dambaza, Dangote for Governor and so many Nigerian heavy weights if I collect money from these people I would probably be a billionaire by now, but I am still in England doing my own shiiit.

The bottom-line is I am independent thinker, and thinkers with their pens can change and chart new courses for nations, that alone would give me enough gratification than collecting money from people to write like our now famous Mr Omatsheye.

@poster

Our dear BABA AWO, fought for everything he got from Nigeria/Nigerians .

If his siblings want anything let them fight for it too.

Sorry for my typo.I mean "paying".

MrBible:
Churches collecting tithes are all thieves as the pastors are not Jews, the workers are not Levites and the tithes are not farm produce.

My friend Christianity in all about faith in a CHRIST and not in man.

Anything you give is between you and GOD.

That is were faith comes in.

MrBible:
Quote from: emmatok on Today at 11:03:20 AM
I will agree with you when pastors begin to quote 2 Corinthians 9:7 instead of Malachi 3: 8 - 9
2 Corinthians 9:7
7 Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver

I have been paying my tithes, offerings and vow for many years now.

Nobody forced  me to do it, cos i do it willingly and i have no regrets  about that.

CONCLUSION: The Igbos should understand that the crisis facing the South today was directly or remotely caused by them. But because their leaders had not been sincere to them, they have continuously propagated the lie that the West is responsible for their problem. A few facts should illuminate this:

In 1957, the North threatened to secede if independence was granted to Nigeria because they were not ready. Zik, was supposed to have reached an understanding with Awo to let the North go. But to Awo’s consternation, Zik formed an alliance with the North which succeeded in delaying independence and allowed the North to get ready.
In 1966, a group of young Igbo officers planned a coup that killed only non-Igbo politicians. Included among the politicians was Ahmadu Bello who was a god-like figure to the Northerners. Before you could say Jihad, all the Sabongaris were on fire and the pogrom that would lead to the civil war has started,
Instead of trying to seek immediate political solution to the crisis, the Igbos declared Biafra. They war lasted for 30 months. The Igbos lost everything. The Hausa-Fulani oligarchy took this defeat of Biafra as the conquest of the South. Since then, they have transformed the privilege of leadership into that of a birthright and they have used it not only to stunt the growth of the South but also to subject their people to a state of perpetual servitude and feudalistic iniquities.

Yam is believed to be helpful to the liver and endocrine system. It regulates the female system, particularly during menstrual distress and menopause,as well as used in treating infertility. Used with chasteberry and dandelion it is an effective treatment for morning sickness[citation needed].
Usually found wild in the eastern half of North America, it is a perennial plant that is a low creeper, and occupies average to poor soils and full sun.
It has been hypothesized 1 that wild yam ( Dioscorea villosa and other Dioscorea species) possesses dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)-like properties and acts as a precursor to human sex hormones such as estrogen and progesterone 2. Based on this proposed mechanism, extracts of the plant have been used to treat painful menstruation, hot flashes, and headaches associated with menopause[

That woman no lie  o o o

lolatom:
The quality of graduates Nigerian Universities produce yearly is nothing to write home about.  How many of these lecturers understand what they teach students? You can't give what you don't have.

In my 4yrs as a Computer Science Student I never made use of any Computer in the School as there were no such facilities

In my 3rd year, a particular lecturer(BABA KENYA) told us at our first lecture in the first semester that He was very sure less than 30 percent of the class would pass his course and he was very true to his words.

Employement in Nigeria should be based solely on aptitude tests and the quality of answers graduates give during interviews.

Who says a 2.1 can't be bought in naija? I personally know someone who had a 2.1 and never wrote exams all through his 4years.

Man 2.1 cannot be bought in most Federal University in Nigeria.

Go check the statistics how many 2.1 do most of this  Federal University produce.

The Professors on the School Senate  don't just give people 2.1.

marabout:
Most Dads wouold be reasonably happy with a 2.2 BUT perhaps his dad feels that he underutilised his potential.

If you are a dullard, your dad would he happy with a 2.2.  If you were a 1st class material having been through good schools and lots of family support, then parents might be disappointed.

But what he lacks in top grade, he can make up for with hard work and hussler spirit. Grade is not everything.
2 of England's richest men: Green and Bronson only had a GCSE, comparable to NECO or GCE o'level.

I narrowly missed a 1st class perhaps because of having to work to support myself (I no be one of  those ajebutta they send come study abroad), so as a mature student with responsibilities and no restriction on how many hours I could do, I worked like mad.

Lots of guys who had a 2.2 found jobs with Foreign & Commonwealth Office, MoD, DoH. The good old days in London.

That is the point i am making in bold.

If his result from 100L has been 3.0 or higher. The dad will be disappointed the son graduated with 2.2. thinking he relax on his final year.

I am not saying 2.2 is bad . But the father has s reason for showing concern.

Read the post very well, the dad didn't throw his son out the house.

He left the house because his father chided him.

So when a father chide his son for whatever reason the, the normal thing to do is to leave the house?

What is difficult in saying "am sorry" to his father.

21st century children.

violent:
I'm sorry but i don't get the point.

Are you saying the boy has should apologize to his father even though his father stopped believing in him and threw him out of the house?

Or the boy should apologize because he underperformed the class average, something he probably couldn't have helped?

which of the two do you suppose he should be sorry for?

Read the post very well, the dad didn't throw his son out the house.

He left the house because his father chided him.

So when chide father his son for whatever reason the, the normal thing to do is to leave the house?

violent:
Apologise to his father?  did he smash his dad's windshield?

Is it until he smash his dad's windshield b4 he can apologies.

So because he is a grown ass man, he can stand-up to his father.

If your dad corrects you, all you need to do is to accept correction.

Rich4god:
@emmatek,  Am nt tryn 2 ridicule anybodies family, d guy in question is my friend, and i myself am still struggling to make 2.1 even am in final yr, so am nt here to ridicule anybody. Why i posted dis z dat d guy told me how his dad has been reacting over his poor result though according to him, he said in Esut, gud result are hard to come by, also that in his class, only abt 15/137 studnt made 2.1(if u r an Esut graduate plz confirm dis assertion). So i jst wnt 2 hia wat u al kan say ova dis.

OK, sorry for being lil harsh.

His fathers concern is understandable.

All your friend needs to do is apologies to his father.

And promise to do better.

There big difference between Academic excellence and being intelligent

Intelligent is the ability to think widely, going beyond the filed of study.

Most successful businessmen and politicians are intelligent, but not sound academically.

How many Professors do you see in business or politics. Because most of them are limited to their field of study.

But many successful businessmen and politicians can argue about almost any field of study because of the level of exposure. That is were intelligent come in.

But the guys father has the right to show concern. Any father will do.

texazzpete:
I don't know why you clowns are taking Panadol for another man's headache. Were you there when the man was paying school fees for his son?
Is the father MANDATED to pay for his son's University education?
It could well have been a contract of some sort. I pay for your education, in turn just ensure you come out with a good degree. Isn't the man allowed to feel dissapointment when his son came up short?

If the boy did not have the ability to make a 2.1, perhaps the dad would not have been bothered. But the man must have been let down by a son with potentials who failed to live up to his side of the bargain.

For the record, anyone that claims that you can only get a 2.1 by bribing lecturers is immediately identified as a mediocre student.

So it matters not if you know someone with a 3rd class who has made it in life. The bottom line is that the dad paid all school fees + housing. In return, the son underachieved academically. Why do you not expect the man to be upset?

Thank you my brother.

These childern expect the father to wecome his son home with 2.2.

When he knows his son can do better.

@And for those who claim you can bribe to get 2.1.

Well, no Federal University in Nigeria give any student 2.1 for money or sex.

You think those mean Professors at the Senate will allow a dullard to leave their school with 2.1? Never.

Those of you insulting that guys father are totally out of line.

Every parents weather literate or illiterate wants their children to do well in school.

Knowing the kind of child they have.

@poster

I will advise you to mind your own business, stop ridiculing  another family .

The parent knows what they expect from their wards, it is their business to make sure their children are well educated.

Tell that your arrogant friend to go back to his fathers house and apologies.

Children of nowadays are something else.

Sorry, to all Tinubu's worshipers.

The Tinubu that you worship will never ever insult Anybody in AWO's family.

Even Wole Shoyinka will never insult anybody in AWO's family

Because Tinubu as at today is riding on AWOLOWO's achievements.

That fool called Mr. Sam Omatseye should do him-self a favor,

Go apologize for your insult on Awo's family.

You don't insult an elder Yoruba LAND.

Eko Ile:
Actually, it was a bold move and a brilliant write up. They don't even even have to say anything anymore, they've made their point by puting the Tribune and Awo's family's BS out there for everybody to see.

They are political leaders and we don't expect them to be doing back and forth with the Awo family, they have work to do beyond going back and forth with some crooked and corrupt losers.

The SW picked the ACN and Tinubu to look out for them, not the Tribune, the PDP or the Awo family. The public is picking up the fight on behalf of the ACN and Tinubu, you need to get on FB or even read the comments from all the rubbish the Tribune is posting on their website, people are clowning them.


Omatseye is a brave man and I'm proud of him. He said what a lot of people are too scared to say.

Sorry, to all Tinubu's worshipers.

The Tinubu that you worship will never ever insult Anybody in AWO's family.

Even Wole Shoyinka will never insult anybody in AWO's family

Because Tinubu as at today is riding on AWOLOWO's achievements.

That fool called Mr. Sam Omatseye should do him-self a favor,

Go apologize for your insult on Awo's family.

You don't insult an elder Yoruba LAND.

2muchlogic:
Naw! I did not say that lol! BOT? Yes that stands for Bank Of Tanzania lol! and why can't a Nigerian bank lend a state $400 million for development? Every time i switch on CNN I see adverts for Nigerian banks and they don't come cheap

No Nigerian Bank can do that, in these Sanusi era.

Women hate in-laws shit !!!

But ironical, some men don't mind if their wife is a lesbian.

Especially if the other babe is HOT.

Most of these women have "complex issues".

They always want to prove to the men that they too can drive and can't be side-lined.

If they "bash" your car they will still be claiming they are right.

Even the notorious  Okada riders avoid them like poo.

Because dey no go gree.

aribisala0:
oil ompanies/julius berger and others have been in nigeria for years .if they left tomorrow who can do what they do

We have better replacement for them, If they leave tomorrow.

2muchlogic:
I think you meant "seize to amaze", if so can you please tell me what they will be handing over?


Great can you tell me where and how much tax they will pay?

Corrected Mr Teacher.

Have you ever heard of BOT b4?

You are talking as if they will ship the land and the equipment away to their country when they are leaving.

Weather they like it or not they are going to pay TAX on that investment, it is left to government to determine how much they pay.

I will like you to tell me which in Nigerian bank as at today will borrow any state govt $400milla.

And at what interest rate% if they(Nigerian banks ) will.

Any way you look at it, it is a WIN WIN for EKITI people.

upendo 98:
@ enmatok
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU.

But somebody replied here and said that its selfish also not to look/consider the welfare of the other person
In other words he meant your confession will only serve to TORMENT and HAUNT them forever so if you REALLY LOVE  then you would spare them that heartache and everlasting torment.
What would you say to this?

I understand the confession may bring TORMENT AND HUNT the other partner for a long time.

Look you may not confess immediately. You can confess at old age when both of you have noting to loss.

But it depend on how long you can live with that burden in your hearth.
