Galactics:
Always shifting the goal post. So both Tinubu and Atiku can call the Oba a brother, but Obi can't. Imagine a comment from a supposedly sane person.

Look, in you a land, age places a very significant role in the way we deal with others especially the way we address them.

Atiku, tinubu and the olubadan are in the same age bracket. Mr obi is still much younger.

Toruibestate:
Olubadan left 2006.
Same 2006 Obi was Governor.

So why did President Tinubu address him as his brother and no problem to that?


If Peter Obi was President would you have say anything?

Let's call a spade a spade.

Mr Peter obi was very wrong to call a first class OBA of Olubadan's his friend. He is not longer a governor but a highly revered king in Yoruba land.

I am very sure they were not even friends when he was a governor.

...and you can't compare tinubu with obi. The two of them are not age mates. Stop thinking what ever tinubu can do, obi can do also.
They are not in the same category both age-wise and political sagacity.

You people's poor cultural behaviours have brought you slots of limitations.

Imagine obi calling olubadan his friend on the ground both of them were ex governors.
What nonsense and audacity?!.

omoh!

The last paragraph from Reno was damn too harsh for PO's personality. Although that is just the summary of who Peter is.

But it is too harsh anyway.

I am still surprised that non of Peter obi spoke persons has the courage to confront Reno word for word.

Look, silence is not the best answer for all the fools oh 😠!
Some fools need to be served the same meal they are dishing others .

I don't think unionisation should be mandatory, especially in the private sectors .

It should be optional and the employers should let the employees know that they will not entertain unionisation for what ever reason before employing them.
So that anyone taking the job will know he/she will not be joining any labour union.
I believe government will never ask dangote to shut down his refinery if he insisted he won't allow his employees to join any union.

Antivirus92:
here we are talking about the pass ratio not number that sat for the exam. Not everyone that sat for the exam in lagos is from lagos

But you believe that everyone that sat for the exam in SE are Igbos abi?

ambale:
And yet People from the least performed state are the ones deciding the fate of others

Let's continue with this our fake unity Sha 😃

After ssce, most of the candidates in the SE go into trading because miracle center that gives them the unmerited results doesn't extend to higher institutions.
Only few of them make it to the uni last las

igwebuike01:
Lol. It's not by total number but by percentage

I give it to Kano state.

The number of candidates that took the exam in Kano and Lagos state is more than the total candidates in the entire south east.

That is why the number is higher in Kano, Lagos and oyo state while the percentage is higher in the SE .

Ezeama400:
Anambra should. to do better, from Ist under Peter Obi to 4th under Soludo …Very terrible!

Soludo destroyed many miracle centers in Anambra state.

It is in the news

Putinofrussia:
Don't know how this data is gotten as reality and authentic data still shows that Yoruba continue to lead in education.

After using miracle centers to get ssce results, my people from the SE find it difficult to go further in their academic pursuits as there no miracle centers in the higher institutions.

Many therefore resort to learning trades. Living the original educationists the amala people to take the lead eventually.

Shey you gerrit

SmartPolician:
Nawa oh! What happened to Enugu? The state is not even on the top 10 list!

Meanwhile, what's the update on the drama between the Enugu State government and Sujimoto?

Miracles centers are not very rampant in Enugu state. The governor needs to do more to increase the number of miracles centers in the state.

Before opening the thread , I know it's going to be that annoying and disgusting refuse heaped by the road at 3rd avenue close to L.E.A primary school.
The refuse is almost causing traffic along the road

The issue of land dispute in that region is becoming something else.

There are land disputes everywhere but that of the SE region gets as e be .

Good job Mr governor.

Why do people from the SE hate this man so much ?

I think he is the most hated SE governor

Arsenal don't need a prolific and big named striker as their pattern of game doesn't suit such.

I was thinking arteta will go for Nathan devid ( a free transfer) instead of Gyokeres.

Moroccoguy:
It's well ooo, Obi will promise north the same thing.

All of them are liers. Atiku, pandora, bulaba all of the are liers.

Everything you said here is applicable to women too.

A woman can lose interest in her marriage for these reasons too

Good news for the people of Rivers state

Any time you lodge in that hotel, don't pay a dime.

Na Una property

Shawarmagirl:
Sowore want to send Wike to his early grave. I am certain because of all this expose, Wike BP has risen and he's due for checkup in US next week.

Nigeria's are happy with Sowore.

US is a no-go-area for wicked Wike at the moment.

helinues:
Yele, sorry is your case. Hope you will find whatever that's not lose that you have been looking for

A presidential candidate behaving like a toddler

A presidential candidate should not expose a thief abi?

See, Sowore has nothing to lose. He will fight Wike dirty.

yarimo:
WIKE really hit this fool in a right place, sowore this is just the beginning.

What is this one saying biko. Who hits who in the right place?

wizelink:
Wetin wike do sowore? This one too much. It seems wike and his spokes person have lost their voices. Even reno dey avoid this matter.

Wike abeg respond to all these allegations make your ancestors no slap you.

His offence.

When Sowore called balablu a criminal, Wike go chook mouth despite saying no be him dem call kiriminal .

Sake of saying im want to defend him boss

Laalasticla:
I am a Yoruba mama and I do not address my nieces and nephews as aunty and brother, I address them bodily by their names, my husband's siblings tried to fight against it but I stood my ground , na them cave in.
They want wives to worship them, who then worships the wive, abi wive no be human being....

I strongly doubt if you are a Yoruba woman. Maybe you married a Yoruba man and became a Yoruba by marriage.

At the bolded, it is a turn by turn thing. Anyone lady who is married into that family will address your children as aunty and brother so so so.

You are not the last woman that will be married into the family. Other women are coming and your kids are growing, the same respect will be accorded to you and your children.

You people have used civilization to finish our culture.
If you marry into my family you will have to bend o.
In fact, you will enjoy doing it because you will see other co-wives who are very rich and educated how they respect their little in-laws.

Kimo21:
Speak for your own family oga….theres no such rubbish culture in Yoruba that says that. Sane Yoruba people that know true respect will tell the girl to be calling the 29 year old lady aunty instead. And not the other way around

What part of Yoruba are you from? Didn't you study Yoruba language in secondary school?

Ask any elders of Yoruba origin, they will tell you it is a culture in Yoruba land for women to respect all members of their husbands family and treat them as in laws no matter their age.

Even though civilization has eroded this culture, some families still practice it.

When I was much younger, there was a wife one of my uncle that used to called brother Abbey, I have to meet her and tell her I will be much more comfortable if she calls me by my name before she stopped calling me brother..
The woman took was a graduate. She was a teacher and she owns a big baking store and an event planner yet her humility is top notch.

Kajaard:
To the op: you dodged a sniper bullet

Infact you dodged an atomic bomb bigger than the one used in world war 2 on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

This is coming from a man. Please have no regrets at all. That family is a complete write off.

You will get a better man soon. Don't think about it.

On the contrary, it was the man that dodged a missile.

See the way the lady was claiming to be sweet and respectful yet she was not humble enough to address her husband's family the way the culture demand.
She sees her degree to be more superior than the cultures that have been existing before she was born.

This is the kind of ladies that won't respect their husband families. Once you don't have a master degree, she will see you as a piece of shit.

Haydens:
The husband is nothing but a mommy's boy. Their marriage won't even have any boundaries between them and his mother if the marriage had happened. My mother is my mother, my wife is my wife. My mother enjoyed her show maybe uninterrupted when my father married her, so she should let my wife enjoy her show too if I later marry.

I will accord everyone their respect when I finally decided to marry( on probability tho).

The husband is not a mummy's boy in my opinion.

That lady is a Yoruba lady. She knows Yoruba culture but she thinks she can use her degree and certificate to override a culture that have been in existence before she was born as if she is the first to obtain a master's degree.

Let her marry her certificate because even if she goes to another Yoruba family, she will meet the same culture. The best she should have done was to give those her husband families a sweet nickname and address them as such.

That is how it is done in Yoruba land.

NotOfThisWorld:
That is rubbish. They must be a poor and ignorant family. I hope she told them "Deuces!". Good riddance.

What is rubbish there?

It is a culture in Yoruba land to address anyone from your husband family as aunty or brother regardless of their age as long as they are older than your own children.
Once you start having children in the family, you are free to address any body that is younger than your own children by their names.

Natbrowny:
People don stop this nonsense.

Nicknames has taken over ..

U can call ur sister in law by nicknames
Abi una dey put anty b4 nickname.? 😂

God bless you.

Nothing like aunty, brother etc any more. Just give them a fine nickname and you are good to go.

These people should just rest over this matter abeg.

We have pressing issues in the country to talk about

Silentgroper:
Which team did Liverpool park the bus against??

Go back and watch Liverpool Vs arsenal, just after Liverpool scored few minutes to the end of the game .

crazygod:
As a Liverpool die hard fan, I love this result.
Pep made it worse for himself when he decided to park the bus. Learn from Liverpool.

What is there to learn from Liverpool? Even Liverpool parked the bus when they scored arsenal 8 minutes to the end of the game .

Even arteta will park bus if his team was the first to score
