i learnt how to be razz from my ibo friends.

a large percentage of my school was ibo, i can count my yoruba friends on my two hands. where did you go to school?

oh but i lived in IB and Los and went to school in Abv

ekiti parapo!

represent!


(why did you ask, tho)

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

lmao!
i might just drown

no imma wear my sexy, cut-out one piece

so i did

perhaps i should go swimming!

lol this diddy

did i say they were old men

lol speedos dont do anything for me oh

lol. it's all right, there's a lot of speedo wearing men here.

nope, do you wear speedos ?

lol @diddy, my grandma said bikinis are bad

@teezy thks!

lol teezy please please modify the B

don't want people to know where im at

thks!

@ diddy and teezy

yeah, the heat here is horrible, been running around on the buses all day, but hopefully things will get bettr! lucky you teezy, right on the pacific, enjoying that cool air.

do you know any correct night spots in SF?

lol @ afeni
maybe u should convert to santeria and become a babalawo

ifa isnt a god tho, orunmila is the god. ifa is just the divination practice. im not really interested in the Gods themselves, being a catholic and all but i think they form an integral part of our history and should not just be dismissed. i'm more interested in things like how ifa divination made use of the binary system (i have like two articles on that) in divination, and how they had the 256 choices, and you made sense of the final stories and proverbs yourself. i'm also more interested in systems of governance like the oyomesi, are-ona-kankanfo and such and how they were able to ensure power was not abused, and the role of women in the society, drawing parallels between this and other mythological gods and stuff like that.

check your college library, or the local santeria man (where you at?), or the internet (wiki is pretty good).
and the story about ogun was told to me by someone

nothing much diddy. just waiting for this heat wave to be over!

you?

really? i always took u for a socal person. im in B!

u know teezy is from cali cos she says 'hella'
you from norcal?

lol i dont know if i can help you, Father of Insanity. perhaps you drank some of your own stuff
and are going mad, why would anyone hate you for giving powers to oduduwa, without him, you nor i, nor afeni would exist.

i suggest you stop sipping on that insane brew. and stop cavorting with ogun as well. remember what he did at ikere-ekiti after being getting drunk at that place near emure and thinking that the villagers at ikere did not leave him any palmy, when they actually did? he was just too drunk to find it. don't be like him.

i know u also got drunk off palmy and created your twin, afeni

it's actually obatala

and my name is gigitte!

lol it caught my eye

but i did read the article

the censorship/hypocrisy spin was spot on!

if you cant spell my name right, gigi will do just fine

lawdhammercy!

this afeni sef, i don't think we've ever had any direct interaction on nairaland, so how have you been nice to me?

if it was not obvious from my previous post that i was only referring to the harsh manner in which you responded to christino's post (i was asking him to brush off your cruelty)

i hope i have how made it clear

malaria is not caused by a virus 

in a lot of cases, viral infections can't be cured. they can only be managed, or suppressed or prevented with vaccines. this is why the common cold has no cure (and there are just too many kinds of cold viruses for a vaccine to be developed) and doctors will sometime tell you 'ah it is just a viral infection'. also why herpes both oral and genital cannot be cured. the human immune system has also involved in such a way that it takes care of a lot of viruses on its on.

anyhow apart from HIV being a retrovirus, it is also very wise and intelligent, always changing and stuff like that. a lot of viruses are like this too.

actually it doesnt matter if we knew or didnt know what caused malaria. the fact is that it was treatable. quinine bitter as it is, comes from barks of trees found in west africa, and the leaves of another tree are also good for treating malaria i think its dogon yaro. there are many ways to treat malaria today, quinine itself which is not much in use now (very bitter, causes itching) , chloroquine, fansidar, artemisin based drugs like cotexcin(these ones are the future), and other such. the problem with them esp in naija, is people produce fake drugs, or dilute the doses. hence the malaria parasite becomes survives the diluted doses and over time, the drug becomes ineffective (remember this from biology, subject the microorganism to weak doses of medication gradually increasing the dosage, eventually it will become resistant to the recommended dosage) . this is why dora akunyili is being targeted everywhere and there are many strains of malaria parasites resistant to a lot of medications.

what have we learnt then? when you are ill from malaria, finish your course of treatment! even if you feel better. do not let the above happen to you. ensure that NAFDAC registration is on your medicine packet. don't be cheap. try and verify the authenticity of your drugs. finally, put into practice all noted preventive measures including prophylaxics.
more and more people are now turning to traditional ways to combatting the disease.

i think christino makes sense

over posting or posting nonsense irrelevant replies on threads will not make you popular, it will only make you seem immature. say what you gotta say but be succint

dont mind afeni jare

these aren't slangs!

these are wisecracks and idioms

a slang is something like 'hella' which is said instead of saying 'a lot' or 'really'

there were hella cars

i was feeling hella good

brushing ur teeth with chewing stick is actually very healthy!

the girl in the pic is very pretty

lol actually you can discern
the virgins,
those who dont care about losing their virginity
and those who are just forming that they dont care from some of thee replies on this thread.
