PoliticsRe: Soyinka Accuses Presidency Of Using Vulgar Language At Campaigns by emmatok(m): 7:06am On Mar 11, 2015
Soyinka also cautioned Cole for denigrating African religions by calling the practitioners as ‘pagan’ in his book and warned, “any more of that condescending stuff and I shall invoke Ogun, Sango and other Yoruba deities to pay you a re-educational visit and then you‘ll see whether your Christian eponymous patron saint, Saint Patrick, can save you from their corrective can for your profanity.”
Interesting.

I sure most guy condemning WS didn't read the article beyond the first paragraph.

Care to explain the diplomacy when these neighbors of ours make jest of Nigeria, from the outright lies of the Chadians to the previous insult of the Nigeriens who called us cowards? I say the response by DHQ to all these was apt, and these countries MUST play by our rules for any ops within Nigerian territory.

BTW, last I checked, the newly rearmed Nigerian military is on the offensive and is responsible for mist if the successes recorded till. We don't need them within our territory, but Manning and reinforcing their own borders.
You need them, because we don't have secured boarders yet and the Nigerian Army is not strong enough.
Most success gotten against BK are due to the multinational forces.
Note that even the SA armed forces are part of multinational forces fighting within Nigerian borders.

For now we have no choice.

Care to explain this "display of incompetence and lack of Diplomacy" ? Do you even have any bloody idea what's really happening, or youre just happy to spew garbage on this thread? The Chadians and Njgerienes just announced that they carried out a military ops deep in Nigerian soverign territory when the exact ops was undertaken in Bosso within NIGER REPUBLIC. a few days ago, President Derby claimed that Chad's leading the ops in Nigeria, when in the Chadians liberated ONLY TWO border towns (Gamboru Ngala and Dikwa) and have been warned to turn back compared to the NigeriN military thats not only spear heading this ops, but personally liberated over 16 towns. Yet you expect these clowns to insult our country and spew lies all in the name of "diplomacy"?! I say Bleep " diplomacy ", the military is on point with the statement.
You don't really understand anything, it was the coming together of the Joint forces of these countries that reduce the terrorist(BK) momentum.
Thats the result of diplomacy.
Nigerian Army cannot afford to have any war with other neighboring countries for now, it will be disaster.
We need to DIPLOMATICALLY handle the situation for now until our National security is strong enough to handle internal and external forces.

you are the one lying here.

This is the clip you're referring to:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNEtRc8Ghrg

Ooni's exact words were: there is something we do at the source, which is not done in any other part of Yorubaland.

I hope you can decipher what he was saying?

Did you notice the emphasis on SOURCE and the subsequent qualifiers which mentioned it is NOT practiced by any other part of yorubaland?

And the pause BEFORE he called on the obas to point their sticks? huh

are you viewing the clip with understanding or with something else? huh
That was a ritual performed for non-Yorubas who want acceptance.

Its neither a blessing or curse m just a RITUAL.

But notice that most of those pointing staffs @GEJ are not OBAs, but BAALEs.

mikeapollo:
Think with the brain that God gave you.
Who are the people/party in the court that are alleging/accusing TB Joshua that his building collapsed because it was structurally defective?
It is the Lagos State govt and they are the ones bringing fictitious reports to support their position against TB Joshua.

All the agencies that are not under the control of Lagos State have testified and certified that the foundation and materials used in the building were sound.....but Lagos State is the only one denying and trying to rely on false witnesses/reports
Leave GOD out of this, if the structure was sound, why did it collapse. Since this incidence happened, why hasn't the church showed concrete evidence that the building was sound.

It is unfortunate if that is what this young man is reporting in this false and divisive way. He may have to be called to order to stop this exuberant attitude of misinforming people as this is not good for our collective efforts. We will take this up where it matters.”

What we're saying is that synagogue should go and present their case in courts, and stop blackmailing the government.

These can only happen in Nigeria, were religious gullibility is high.

Yoruba's traditional oba don't bless with itele (walking stick) but with irukere

Firefire:
Is that a rod? I presume you are myopic in your understanding of your own version of Yoruba root undecided


What those Obas are holding is not a rod but a ‘staff of authority’ signifying their authority and power. (This is different from the beaded staff used as messenger of authority which is always in the custody of the chief messenger)


In other words, any Yoruba kingdom that could trace its link with Oduduwa in Ile-Ife, the cradle of Yoruba Civilization, would be given the staff of office (Opa Ase).

There are different ways of using the "Staff of Office" - "Opa Ase" & the "Irukere" (Cow tail switch)

You better don't monkey with electricity.

Goodluck to you.


In another interpretation: Opa Itile - eni ba da ile, aba ile lo.
LOL, another IBO man claiming to know about Yoruba Heritage.
Those people are not OBAs but BAALES.

What these foreigners care about is where they can site their multi-billion dollar investment...where they can invest and get food returns for their investments... the technicians look for where they can be gainfully employed and enjoy that fat five-digits-dollar-salary.

And from what I can get from this thread is that the majority yorubas posting here are turning against their elders in favor of a drug dealer bastard

This is what change now represents
What elders, Yoruba unlike others chooses and reject elders atwill.
OBJ is a living example of rejected elder in 2011 elections.

It may also interest you to note that,Boko Haram started as electoral miscrants,used and dumped by politicians,whose agenda later changed.

When I visited cross river state...I learnt that...people don't keep late nights and anybody caught...will be arrested... That people should sleep on or before 10pm... Then one man was sick..and we needed to take him to the hospital...we had to rush to the MOPOL that guarded the area and they gave us an escort! You need to learn how to maintain orderliness and be free from stray bullets!
.

.
You're rather too naïve to reason in diz manner...

.

.
This isn't a fair judgment... Never assume if u don't have facts to back up ur sentiments... The AIG didn't say the police will open fire on the public... Just stand by what he says and drastic measures will be taken to legitimize the killing of a police officer...
.
.

.
Do you know how many police die on the cause of protecting you every night from armed robbers?
What kind of law is that and who passed that law.

The last time a young man was killed in Ogba, Police claimed he is a miscreant, until the truth came out.

Since you're pretending not to know how callously and evil Nigerian police officers can be, I say let's wait and start counting and Identifying dead bodies.

How's the APO case related to the subject? Meanwhile, the spare parts dealers kept late night!
So keeping late night deserves death sentence.

Am not supposed to reiterate my post for you to understand.... The AIG said the police will take it upon themselves to kill any group of miscreant or tyrants or terrorists... Who, in anyway have hands in the killing of a policeman!
And the IG is now judge and Executioner at the same time.
You people are just too naive.
If a miscreant or tyrants kills a policeman, they will runaway and the police will start killing innocent citizens it happens all time.
Do you know how many Nigerian have died, due to police stray bullets and accidental discharge.
