Na bad gals dey go for bad guys...birds of same feather

BKayy:
You mean the Igbo women in your picture that are wearing rare copper spirals worth atleast 12 million Naira in todays amount on their legs are naked?

If you want to talk about people being naked, talk about the Yoruba women in the picture below that the few things they are wearing are worth absolutely nothing

You can't compare yourselves with Ndigbo. There has never been a time we were mates

Lol. Stop embarrassing yourself. These weren't us. This is typical of Igbo gals back in the days

Okutanla1:
Yes. It's him.

You lie

seunmsg:
Igbos ladies were still dressing naked when the picture was taken.

Don't mind them jare

BKayy:
The picture is from early 20th century (after Amalgamation).
By then, Igbo businessmen have started developing estates in Lagos.

By the way, I never knew we would get to a level when Yorubas will start celebrating what the white men built as theirs.

Lol. These people are more Shameless than I thought.

Does this look like Alaafin to you? Mtcheew

Firroda:
As a yoruba boy who can read and write in Yoruba, I find that very painful to read, had to read very very slowly to comprehend. Oyinbo culture don finish us

Lolz. Go grab iwe A B D

SlyDev:
Yoruba civilization is the best, Omo see culture and greatness in one picture.

If I'm not Yoruba, I will be jealous of them.

I am telling you. Civilisation actually evolved in Yorubaland and extended to other parts of Africa. We did not just have those brown roofs in Ibadan, the former largest city on the whole of the African continent . At the time when those roofs were reigning, 99 per cent of the roofs in Niger Area ( which later became Nigeria) were covered with bamboos.

Unfortunately, we lost our space to foreigners from other parts of Africa due to ijękuję awon oloriiwa. Our forebears weren't thugs. We were well organised and had our government, long before the invasion of the west. We were enlightened people. People used to come from as far as Senegal, Gabon, Sierra Leone Uganda, etc before the invasion of the west, to seek knowledge and skills on how to organise their territories.

The Europeans once said Africa never had history but the same came to us and packed all our relics and artefacts away. Some ignorantly said here that our women never wore clothes, posting pictures downloaded from google, belonging to other territories in Africa to depict and describe us whereas the artefacts stolen from us wore clothes as carved and most of them were over 500 years old before they came to pack them away to their zoos abroad, centuries ago.

Our son even became an attorney-general in one of the African countries for years. We had the largest colony in Africa. Our colony extended to Dahomey, now Benin Republic where I visit regularly.

Some politicians came and introduced thuggery and all manners of character, then changed the narrative. Kanuris and hausas were Our slaves. One of them even later became a personal guard to Madam Tinubu who later became her husband. She was a powerful yoruba woman, a woman like a man. The guard's name was Saka and madam tinubu now changed his last name to Tinubu her name, a man bearing a woman's name...to describe how powerful she was. A Street was named after this man on VI...Saka Tinubu.

Now, our politicians had sold our power and might to the Fulanis nitori ijękuję. Alale Yoruba maa bi gbogbo won. We will get our strength back for sure, sooner or later.

DMerciful:
Yorubas also migrated to Lagos like others. What helped Yorubas is the proximity to Lagos but are all immigrants as well.

True. We're all sojourners on earth

PCSI:
Una just wan finish dis man monie....

Did he offer them money to vote online? How dem wan finish him moni? That's the opinion of those who would vote on Saturday mind you. I'd urge you encourage your candidate to intensify more efforts on campaigns to convince those whose minds are already made up. The era of chop make I chop politics is fading. Every state is yearning for development

Ballack1:
And who is the original owner of Benin?

Don't mind them. Warped up post up there. Early settlers were the bini fishermen who paddled their canoes via the edge of the river banks to lagos...does that make them the owners of our land? I hope Ibos in amuwo odofin too or hausas at sabo and agege areas won't say they're the original owners of Lagos tomorrow after travelling nearly 1000 of miles to settle here.

In ondo state, we have the Ijaws at the riverine area, especially at Ęse Odo LGA. They migrated and settled there. They can't say they're the original owners of Ondo tomorrow. Human migration is a normal thing.

The argument of whether Yorubas own Benin kingdom is a story for another day.

Nairaland don dey mess up these days oo. Una just dey carry anything put for front page too bad. Seun, pls do justice to this. You need to approve some information before being pushed to front page by your moderators. NL used to be first with veritable news and information.

PCSI:
APC, never again in Nigeria

Point of correction...APC and PDP, never again ! Politicians in Both parties are like a pendulum. They swing only to the side which favours them (either APC or PDP)

Only stupid youths would vote them , come 2023

Na only mouth no action..mtcheew! Ariwo ko ni music. Go and ask Ambode how he did so much in less than 4 years and how he was able to achieve so much in such a short time. I hope you'd be bold enough to take his advice without stepping on toes of your godfather.

BTW:
Greater Lagos was part of Ambode's programmes before jagathief sacked him for not doing his bidding

Treasure17:
This is what happens when you gat no bills to pay.

Yes! when he's got no bills to pay because God had settled all the bills for him.

Since they can't hustle to make a living like law-abiding citizens, they should face whatever comes their way. One day for the owner, everyday for the thieves

babyfaceafrica:
The currency of more than 7 countries isn't ordinary please!

Naira is expected to carry more weight and that's my point . What's the per capita income of the 7 counties put together? How many of them are as developed and rich as Nigeria in natural resources? Check out our position on the list of petroleum and gas exporting countries. I don't even want to talk of population because all those 7 countries you talked about put together aren't up to half the size of Nigeria. Our politicians have ruined our economy. This regime has even made it worse.

I recall in the 90s when other African countries always wanted to enter Nigeria through illegal routes to work as maids and gatemen because of how strong our currency was. We're in a great mess.

tutudesz:
They had 7 years to grow the economy, by repairing our refineries, massive in agriculture and other now oil sectors honestly democracy is worse than military regime

lool

tutudesz:
I heard that President Buhari made $1=N1

Sadly, i exchanged 1000 naira for 1,000 cefa at idiroko border earlier in the week and the woman said I was supposed to give her 1,050 because I was exchanging quite much, she could waive the 50 naira on top, what a mess! If you ask the apc-led govt, why our naira keeps losing value, they'd tell you it was covid-19 that caused it meanwhile, other currencies of the world remained firm, including ordinary cefa.

Penguin2:
Wetin Paul Kagame tell Mummy Ngozi that she’s laughing like this bikonu?

The guy is naturally humorous

Paul Kagame tall no be small

perez100:
Communication gone wrong. From this pictures - these boys killed were Fulani. No doubt about it. We can now see those using IPOB name to kill people in the East. Truly, this government is evil. They have evil plan against Igbo and Nigerians but only the smart ones can see this evil plot.

Do those lying lifeless look like fulani to you? Keep deceiving yourself. I'd urge you tame your brothers because stupidity doesn't win any war, strategy does.

Flamemignon1:
I don't get the essence of this story, it's either you assumed she wanted to get it fixed because you thought her weak but let me ask.... Would your brother have gotten out of the car if it were a man in distress?

Sure. We don't discriminate based on gender, male or female, it doesn't matter. It happened during summer and if you've been to LA during summer, you'd prefer to always be in shots and light singlet...to describe the extremity of the heat. This woman was sweating profusely and looking helpless but the response we got just for feeling concerned and trying to help was bizarre

Tanko is terribly sick with no sign of improvement so they're harassing Justice Odili, the likely successor because the canals of fulani extraction don't want a female to rule over them as they see it as an insult to their tribe and religion. On this one, they've got no choice. If tanko is declared incapacitated today, she takes over, irrespective of the needlwss harassment. Olubunmi Ette's scenario won't repeat itself again, never!

Sonyboom765:
Igbos are the biggest bigot in the country followed by the Fulanis you mention. So when talking tribalism always mention the most bigoted tribe on the face of the eart.

You may be right. We yorubas are the pillars of Nigeria

Nonsense! This gender thing is only going to make the majority of them suffer needlessly. The other day, a lady's tyre got deflated along Disney land resort Road in LA. My brother pulled over to assist her and she said to him rudely...I'd get it fixed myself. We spent good time where we went to. On our way back, we still met her struggling to get it done. Maybe the problem was even more than a deflated tyre. We just wound down and said...hey, hope you get it fixed soon okay.. and drove off.

Hmmm. So, those downing military aircrafts are criminals oga femi? Where's your conscience?

Well, one thing is certain,if it's her destiny to become a CJN, no Jupiter can change it, not even buhari because power could change hands in the eleventh hour, same way Mra Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala scaled through after Donald Trump's loss to Biden. Had trumped remained in power, its most likely NOI would never have tasted that WTO's Office, given trump's stance on the issue by favouring the SC lady, which was so glaring to the world to see.

One thing which will always set us apart in Nigeria will always be there...tribalism especially as practised by the fulanis. Any day the narrative changes, we'd have a true Nigeria. Tanko is pretty older than the age he's claiming but the system is so corrupt that they can have their way to remain in office by shrinking their age.

Hope this N-power of a thing would not lure you guys into another 4 years of slavery. Your life could have been better. Think about this...Not APC and PDP can secure your future or help you achieve your dreams and potentials. N-power is an insult to our ever-resilient youths . A new party of true federalism and sense of belonging for all is coming on board, which will retire all the political moneybags and clueless leadership...are you ready?

Very bad road

Nigeria is truly sinking because bandits have invaded our region in South west, setting inmates free in oyo. If you love yourself and family, don't travel along ibadan-ijebuode expressway. Our yoruba peeps too have joined kidnappers. This isn't only about South East. North is worse off.

Davash222:
Congratulations to our PH sister.

half yoruba, half phc

ahnie:
IVF.
women that conceive easily hope we know what God is doing for us.

Congratulations ma'am.

Who told you it was IVF? So you think women can't conceive with the power of God in her 50s? She can't be up to 60, looking at her stature here. I've seen a 60 year old woman give birth as far back as 1995 when ivf was nonexistent in Nigeria. She's almost 90 years now and the child of that time had graduated, married last year and doing fine. She became talk of the town in the neighbourhood when peppered heard of her pregnancy. At some point, she relocated to the hospital for bed rest when her two feet were swolen.
