This is so true because my mom went to the store yesterday but she couldn't find any antiseptic, tissue paper, even canned food. Very strange to her. Only African store is her hope now

Can someone help with a link to watch online. Thanks

Papanwamaikpe:
Supporters of Amotekun are enemies of the states and should be dealt with. Nigeria's unity is non negotiable. If the FG says Amotekun is illegal then so be it!

Permit me to help you here. An opinion of minister of justice can not declare a constituted authority illegal, only a competent court of law can do that.
Thank you

If the day was your your first time of seeing her, then you over stepped by putting your arm on her shoulder. That was disrespectful. Moreso, is she a minor?

Breaking the law and destroying public property is not fighting for me because I don't support lawlessness and anti-social behavior.

They want a better Nigeria, but they are the same lawless and destructive anti-Nigerian people.

Demand better from yourself first before demanding the same thing from other people.

Some of you are worse than the people you are trying to get rid of.

But it's okay by you that senators of federal republic of nigeria can jump the fence during jonathan's tenure? You need to stop this your way of life. #30,000, too meager

wifeesnatcher:
Sowore is becoming unreasonable lately, is this how revolution take place? I thought civilization would have passed through him being in USA for years, now if govt arrest him for constituting public nuisance, it would be tagged political witch hunting


he need to go and sit his asss up, Nigerians can't afford another war this time as this revolution scrab will only lead to genocide and anti Buhari govt.


revolution that ought to start during election, no one will believe your intention as you're a past contestant. I expect much from Sowore, this is a show of shame to me

Man, what's your point here? It seems you are already jittery because of the revolution.


God bless sowore on this.

bionixs:
you are lost sir. It shows that you need Jesus

Obviously, you need Jesus more than he does. The Bible says, " by their fruit, you shall know them".

ffome:

So this is the origin of the fake story Adeyemi tells that @Wowcatty is stupidly parroting without evidence

The travels of the Landers throw just a little light on the extent of the influence of
Benin and its neighbours. They tell us' when at Badagry in 1830, that during the
lifetime of the late ruler's father, “and for countless ages before that period, Badagry
was a province of Lagos, and tributary to it, as Lagos is and has been from time
immemorial to the powerful King of Benin (I. p. 47).” They also tell us (I. p. 49) that
the body of the late chief at Badagry, “like those of his ancestors had been sent to
Benin in order that its bones might adorn the sacred temple at that place, agreeably
to an ancient and respected custom which has ever been religiously conformed to and
tenaciously held by the Lagos people.” At Katunga, about 200 miles N.N.W. of
Benin and about 50 from Rabba, it was expressly and repeatedly told to them
“that the monarch of this empire is brother to the King of Benin, but notwith
standing this near relationship of the two sovereigns, not the slightest intercourse or
communication is maintained between Yarriba and that power, so at least
the inhabitants of this place [Katunga] have informed us; and the reason they
ascribe for it is that the distance between the countries is too great (I. p. 176), and
they were moreover told that the two kings “were of one father and one mother.”
During their stay at Kiama, about 50 miles S.W. of Busa, they heard that Ederesa,
the rightful heir to the throne of Nouffie [Nupe) “sought an asylum with one of
the chiefs of a state near the Kingdom of Benin (I. p. 234).” Finally at Wowow,
about 25 miles S. of Busa, the king's head drummer, a Nupe man, told them “that
canoes capable of containing 500 men in each, and having thatched houses in them
are taken to Binnie [Benin] with great quantities of cloth, cotton, &c., by his
countrymen, &c.” (II. p. 117).
Of the connection with the distant Katunga, Mr. C. Punch makes some
interesting remarks: “Katunga seems to have been the name of the old town of
Awyaw of which Orangan was King. One of his sons became King of Benin and
took his father's money. Another became King of Ketu and took the ‘crown,' I
suppose the family honours. The Oni of Ife inherited the land, but it must be
remembered that Oni Ife (Kewhohas Ife) was originally the Alaffin. The Alaffin left an officer at Ife when he went to war, and the officer became Oni Ife. He became
by degrees a sort of religious guardian of the royal tombs and treasures, and
eventually attained a position in some ways semi-religious more important than the
Alaffin. The Alaffin, however, is in my opinion the titular head of the Yorubas,
and by tradition the Benin Kings descend from him.”
Capt. Hugh Crow" mentions a Bini embassy which arrived at Bonny during
one his visits. (p. 218). This was prior to 1812, but Crow's editors will have it (p. 190)
that Benin claims sovereignty “from Bonny to Calabar" which does not seem probable.

I can see why Adeyemi sticks to this account of Yoruba history. This book was published before Samuel Johnson's book. Irrespective, no one doubts that Pax Oyo was in the 15th century. What people like Adeyemi and his cohorts refuse to understand is that Pax Ife was 11th-12th century, way before Pax Oyo; and the Ife dynasty was based on advanced technology, war conquests, and economic prosperity.

That being said, It seems Oyo was really feared by Benin, Dahomey, Ketu, Nupe, Borgu and Hausa people.

Finally, their mischief has been exposed.
O ya, our reliable and articulate historians come and do justice o

TAO11:
Wow! I'm glad to read this. I never knew this.

@TAO11
Can u pls come up with some academic facts to thrash this "abore story version that this our oyo brethren have been masturbating on since.
Someone need to school them.

Akiolu the self assumed oba of lagos is a confirmed ibadan man not a lagosian but Tinubu imposed him on lagosian that is why is always on Tinubu side.
Moreso, anytime he's begging for money from Tinubu, he always shows this attitude in order to prove his loyalty

I have always asked some of our brothers from oyo town to clealy and carefully tell us their own version of the story of oranmiyan staff of office presently located in ile-ife.

I must confess, I really thank all the historians here; you are guys are lovely especially for keeping those arrogant edo guys quiet. They think they are smart by thinking that they can use the means of social media to rewrite history but forgetting that smartness can never stand in place of truth and fact

asides joffrey who else was mad?

I bet many of us would have killed the mad king if we were in jaime's shoe.. Why will someone tell me to kill my father and burn all inhabitant of a city. Jaime killed one to save about 500,000 people in kings landing. I will break my oath if it comes to saving humanity at the expense of a truly mad king.. The only fault I find in Jaime is the incest with cersie every other act of his in the series have been noble.

Noble? By pushing bran stark down from a tower

Ten million youths, when the active members of this forum are not up to 200,000?
Lol.
This forum has no impact in the real world.
If we disregard the amount of spammers who open hundreds of accounts daily the remaining number lock themselves up at home and do nothing but nag online.

bro, you have a point but if we start from here other social media outlets may likely join since it's a movement
We need to start from somewhere

chibuzorAbia:
Joker! If you like gather 30 million, not much will change. Nigeria does not have the resources to give 10million youths jobs and the future they want.

I understand you bro, but we need a serious movement to really put these assholes on their toes otherwise they will be taking us for granted while the life their lots are getting better

Hello everyone,
can't we start a movement of 10 million youth protest here on nairaland because the future of this country is blurring and life is so hard for people.

level is a particular point of height

Do we forget that God will not judge us based on our gender but on sins committed?

It is very okay for a man to cheat but it is dangerous for a woman to?

The Bible says that God looked at His creation and said Everything he created was good. So God created men to be polygamous so they can commit the adultery/fornication He said is a sin?

Make Jesus do come abeg.

When you legally marry your wives, it is no more fornication and adultery.

NTA news today at 8:30pm just confirmed the death of the serving honourable member of lagelu/akinyele federal consituency. He was shot in the face by unknown thugs and quickly rushed to I.C.U department of U.C.H Ibadan but at last the report had it that he has been confirmed dead. May his soul rest in peace.
