SlyIg: Well, that will have a different meaning entirely.
It will now mean Chief Funjosh!
Obong is also a title in Efik.
Like the Obong or Edidem(king) of Calabar.

I think I like it that way. OBONG FUNJOSH

Fulaman198: I dream about Fulani unity. There already is a Fulani country kind of with Guinea. They have about a 45% Fulani population. I would like to unite the entire west African region.

45% Fulani population in Guinea, thats much. But yes I dont think that is a Fulani country anyway. Love to see a country with like 70-90% Fulani population. That will be so cool

PeterKbaba: .

. I kash you

SlyIg: Yea ...
Obong and Abasi means God in Efik.
"Funjosh Obong" can be a nice combination. How about that? Lol.

I would love it to be Obong Funjosh

I wish I could read all you just wrote

g12345: What is the second coming of Jesus Christ like? Jesus christ is said to bring the good news and end all wars and tribulations in the world... Here is the truth my people... The fruit portrayed in the garden of eden is indain hemp and it is the fruit of evil and knowledge... The day adam and eve got to smoke it, their eyes became opened and they were banished from the garden of eden and they were told that they will suffer all through their stay on this world... they will struggle at child birth, struggle in almost everything they do in life... My people, the bible only made record of cain and abel... cain got to kil abel and after cain, God gave his people seth... The bible made us know that the Jesus christ was a lineage of seth... when we go back to history, we where told the blacks where the rulers of the world and it was through the blacks that other races came.. The blacks started civilisation... yeah... and it was from the blacks other races came up... The day adam and eve ate the fruit led to the start of colonies... and the start of colonies led to colonization and now we have war... But this time shall surely pass... in the garden of eden, we had food, water, and a good life... but the essence of everything was that God got angry at the fact that the fruit of evil and knowledge was eaten but God in his infinite mercy still wanted us to multiply... He wanted to increase humanity so he designed a plan for us and that is the prophecies happening now... You ever wondered why we have to carry our cows, maize, wheat to some part of the country in order for us to be able to acquire money to buy this stuffs which would help put the same thing on the table of our people... Acquisition of wealth has really dealt a big blow on our race... If the whites are really intelligent and they need our fuel then they could come get it... that is not going to put food on our table, no!!! we have food in abundance... They should come down here and elp us develop human race... Parents!!! your kids aint useless... its a prophecy and it was meant to come to pass.. To the parents who have died in the struggle, we will continue to pray for you and we know you all are out there praying for us...This world is a world of mysteries that goes beyond the eyes but God has always promised us the return of the messiah... History has it.... It was in the name of history different ideologies came... It was in this name of history different theories came up.. This fruit of evil and knowledge brought about it.... We cant base our knowledge on just the bible... If you really wanna know then you have to go deep.... God bless us

tpia1: Yeah we all think Nigera is a liberated, free country for all. But what we do not know is that to some extent, there are things that Nigerians still practice despite all the feminism and human rights movements, some even outdated.

1. Ain't Nothing Like Gender Equality: Yes there are a few superwomen here and there. Beyonce there, Oprah Winfrey there, female supreme court judges, etc. But there is a line drawn somewhere. Do you know that there are still many jobs that pay men more than women for doing exactly the same thing? Business policies are more male-tailored, also the percentage of female CEOs of top companies in Nigeria for instance is far more than that of the US. That's why they have so many laws protecting women to make up for this.


2. They Actually Have a Deep Rooted Culture; religious and secular holidays are traditions that will remain till thy kingdom comes and they follow it religiously. They also have certain kinds of music, food, and ways of partying that are strictly Nigerian. Apart from their atheists, they collectively say grace at the table during every family meal. They also have a tradition they observe in the weddings. Their weddings are more like trad and white rolled into one.

3. There Are Probably More Percentage Of Housewives In Nigeria (minus rural settings); Go to high brow areas like my area where there are wives of successful lawyers and and surgeons doing nothing all than taking care the kids and going shopping. Not just high brow but almost all classes of people. There are more and more housewives choosing to stay back and take care of the home. Some work from the house though.

4. There Are Lots Of Gold Diggers; This is for the "Nigerian girls and money" criers. My hometown babes no dey carry last in the area of god digging. Marrying one woman is like getting ready to loose more than half your wealth because in case of a divorce, the courts will give her most of your wealth which you will have to work hard to replenish. Sometimes it"s worse if she already has her own money, she will make sure she gets a good lawyer to squeeze you dry. But Nigerian billionaires have ways of making new money so they are coping. Lol. Do you know there are many, many young even middle aged attractive women with the sole aim of marrying wealthy men?

5. Straight Guys Hate Gay Guys; With a passion! Go to Nigeria sites and blogs and see anonymous comments from straight guys about gay men. You will coil! Words like "gay asss" or "gay" are used to ridicule them codedly. Gays can NEVER have equal rights in Nigeria. Politicians just use them to score points. They all know that homosexuals cannot actually live like and get all the benefits of straight people in all Nigerian states.

6. A Nigerian Guy Will Choose A Virgin Over A LovePeddler As Wife; Unless, of course love comes in, contrary to what people think that Nigerian men don't care about morality in their women, they will pick an inexperienced girl over a LovePeddler any time any day. Not like they are looking for virgins, but they need and crave decent women. If you don't believe me, watch BAGGAGE on Dstv 127 almost every evening. Also visit Nigerian blogs and forums. Yes the Average Nigerian guy can't resist some one night stands here and there but he can't marry her. Yes they can have baby mamas and even live with them, but they don't marry them.

7. There Are Actually More Percentage of Virgins In Nigeria Than In Most Countries In Africa; Some of them are the miss-goody-two-shoes, no makeup, no fancy dresses types while some are the party girl types. They chose to remain virgins not for religious reasons or because they are good girls but because they chose to preserve it for that special man, or to auction it off! Lol! Is it not oyibos that auction that virginity? Some as old as 26 years old!

8. Nigerian Guys Go To Meet Their Girlfriend's Families Long Before Nigerian Guys Are Ready For Such; They are also old-fashioned when it comes to serious relationships. Opening car doors, taking you out on several dates, and even meeting your folks before taking you to his house or asking you to come to his. Unlike our niggas who get your number today and the next thing they are asking when you will come to see them!

9. Most Nigerian Grandmas Are Just As Prim And Proper As Ours; They take care of grandkids and give all the advice and lectures and are just as protective and desirous of grandkids as our own grandmothers.

If you doubt any of these, do some research.

oluboyo04: YORUBA MOTHERS!!! Yorùbá mothers are the best
when it comes to child upbringing.
Yorùbá mothers produce the best range of slaps:
IGBATI,
IFOTI,
IGBAJU,
IGBARUN,
IFORUN,
IFAKUN,
ILADI,
ABARA.
These slaps will make you think you were adopted. IGBATI
will make you correct your wrongs instantly!
The beauty of IFOTI is, you will confess your sins on the
spot.
IGBARUN, IGBAJU and IFORUN will make you expose those
who committed the crime with you without hesitation.
ABARA and ILADI will make you pee in your new pants.
Now ABARA is the worst...
And apart from IGBAJU, we have an advanced one which is
IGBAJU OLOYI.
When you receive that one, you'll lose balance and your
head will go into "auto-search" as you'll be looking for
what hit you.
This will make you do all the actions of the other slaps
aforementioned at once!
OH! IGBAJU OLOYI... it can reset someone to 3D
(DEAF,DUMB, and DAFT).
She will say let's go home and u will say it's in my pocket
ma.
God bless our parents for the good upbringing.
If you were brought-up in Yoruba land, regardless of how
caring your mother was,
you'd have encountered these slaps ....
Keep on smiling.
Enjoy the rest of your day

BIKE MAN: Where are you going to?

PROSTITUTE: I'm going to the mortuary.

BIKE MAN: Sorry it's late, I can't drop you there except you pay me 3000 naira.

PROSTITUTE: No problem, when we get there, you'll be paid. (When they got to the mortuary, the prostitute said,) "Wait here a second, let me go get you the money."(When the man waited for an hour without seeing the prostitute, he decided to go in search of her. He pushed open the gate of the mortuary a little bit, took some steps in, before noticing someone,who appeared to be the mortuary attendant, lounging around)

ATTENDANT: How can I help you sir?

BIKE MAN: I gave a lady a ride to this place, she asked me to wait for her to go inside and get the money for the ride, but didn't come back.

ATTENDANT: No one entered here! So I don't know what you are talking about.
(The bike man insisted and decided to stay and wait for the lady. The attendant thought for a
while and asked him to follow him into the mortuary room. When they got there)

ATTENDANT: (He picks up a stick beside him, and points it towards the bodies) If you know you entered a bike and didn't pay, quickly raise up your hand and bring it out or else I will beat all of you with this stick! (Quickly, one of the dead bodies raised up her hand and threw the money at the bike rider.)

If you were the bike man, what wil l you do?














A M P R O U D L Y N I G E R I A N !

I go take the money and start my bike and zoom off. I render a service so I deserved to be paid

purplesummer: I doubt these women were igbos, igbo women never wore hats (or cones)

How did u know that How sure are you

oladimejiX: While reading about the igbo people on a Wikipedia article i came across this picture of three igbo women, and its interesting that as recently as 1921 they were still as scantily clad as they were.
Share your thoughts
