Kobojunkie:
There was a thread on this four years ago, guess what . . . it never happened? Why? Because we had people making excuses for why we should leave their people alone . . . lol

eku_bear:
You should go on some of the Yoruba mailing lists on Yahoo Groups and see what people think about him, whether he is viewed as a leader or not. Granted, they might not be completely representative, but it should give you an idea of what SW folks think of him.

This[b] kobogirl[/b] is just one inconsistent character. One minute she says this, the next, she's singing another.
I agree Tinubu should be arrested, but first the likes of Atiku should be hounded up

jason123:
I did not say he is but he is seen as one though, a sort of rally point for the yorubas .

Kobojunkie:
It has absolutely nothing to do with him agreeing with me or not. Matter of fact, I tend not to spend time DEBATING those who see things as I do. I see no point in that ever.
It is just that I feel he probably believes a lot of what he says is true and I would rather he, through experience, personal research, etc. learns the truth.
Honestly, other than that, I don’t know how else to respond to him.

seanet02:
@fstranger, why is Tinubu a crook? Are u okay?

eku_bear:
Generally speaking, you don't arrest prominent members of the political opposition immediately before an election. . . it is pretty poor form.

Ileke-IdI:
Are you older than 44?

Honey, I'm older than you. You're disrespecting me by telling me to take off my gele in your presence.

Now, dobale fun mi.

Ileke-IdI:
Oh really! Make me.
The process might be fun.

seanet02:
Kobo is just like sahara weather, extremes of reasoning

Ileke-IdI:
Age is not even 5% of it, you gotta earn it buddy

isale_gan2:
Are you going to start again?

I should have put it in quotes?  Would that make you happy?!  I'm comparing how practices are viewed by different people.  Leave me alone.

Does everyone view abortion the same? People did sacrifices due to their ignorance and they know better. I do not accept outiders defining us. So I get defensive. Big deal!

How am I like Hitler? And how am I a fanatic?

You just can't stop fighting. . .

isale_gan2:
You mean incestuous on the part of the fetuses, right?  Or, like, the 2 genders in one womb symbolized an inbreeding happened in the past?

Anyway, thanks very much for that.  I never knew why.  Most of us read it for the first time in Things Fall Apart, and didn't research it further.

I believe the Ibos are a proud people with a rich culture.  We all have incidents of one form of sacrifice or another in our past.  I hesitate to call any of us barbaric.  T[b]he oyinbos kill milions of babies every year via state-sanctioned abortions and no one calls them barbaric.[/b]   

Andre Uweh:
Please stop chatting as in the above so that people well-versed in Igbo culture will come into this thread and help out the poster.
Be civil please.

Ileke-IdI:
Yea, they loff us indeed. Roll eyez.

@kobo

Hope you didn't think I was rude yest. My apology

isale_gan2:

isale_gan2:
Alhaji,

I foresee problems for this thread O.

Anyway, most of us didn't know this until we read it in Things Fall Apart.  I doubt Igbo people of recent generations can really explain it either.  It wasn't their decision what was a longstanding ritual in their tradition.

And how come you didn't ask your granma? 

As for Yorubas, we love twins.  I must have twins! 

SHEAU:
we should also ask fstranger  to subtantiate with prove' Buhari wants a sharia state'

Kobojunkie:
I think that depends on the way you choose to see it. There is no denying that in the 20 months the Buhari administration was in charge, Nigerian people really got much of what they had been asking their government for, and that is some semblance of sanity, something we have not had in this country since after those short 20 months. Since Democracy is really about giving the people what they want, one could argue that we did, to an extent, get what we wanted during that brief period in our history.

[size=18pt]Do tell me if I sounded like yet another one of the coo-coo political arse kissers with that. ROLFMAO!![/size]

jason123:
Compared to when he initially started his campaign.

Abagworo:
The westerner is right unless you are not on the streets.GEJ's popularity has reduced drastically and Buhari's has catapulted in the past few weeks.You can even observe on this our small Nairaland that GEJ has lost most of his supporters.
