basty: When and where is the burial arrangement?

he has been cremated cos he died of aregbeebola

Omisore also died politically yesterday. Rip to both of them

egift: Supported. Immediate investigation is needed. We can't be living in Nigeria on speculations. If Omisore is innocent, the authorities should clear his name. So that tomorrow, if some make such allegation on him, he can charge him before the law.

Who is bola ige compared to millions of Nigerians that are killed from time to time without justice from time immemorial.

I am a passionate PDP member but I have always said it that Omisore is not a credible candidate that can floor Aregbe.
Congratulations APC.

amodu: I never said so but note that "efo o kin le efo lawo".

I respect your response so far on this thread. I really wish everyone can emulate this on nl

amodu: I didn't see this before....

Gone are those days; days of darkness; when they all worship idols.

Islam have arrived
Christianity have also

Do the Oba rule over the traditionalist alone?
Is yoruba land now occupied by traditionalist alone?

Co-existence with other religious believers is mandatory as they are also true off-spring of Yoruba land and for the fact that they accepted reality of belief and worship (worshiping the true God) doesn't mean they should be deprived their entitlement.

You mean cos of coexistence Islam a foreign borrowed and uncertain religion like Christianity et all should overshadow your Gods given religion in your part of the world?

tinubu cry go worse o. ugly person cry dey be like say the person don die

APC you see your life? so na Mr goat ordered for the DSS peeps and una still dey blame PDP. diariss god oooo

all those wahala na waste cos as I am speaking we the olosugbos are now in possession of the corpse and the normal normality is ongoing

Kold: I personally don't like to comment on any social media. The reason is not far fetched, I am usually surprised by the nature of comments on the social media by us the so-called future leaders. It makes me weep for the future of the country.

We can blame the leaders for all we care but they say the followers deserve the kind of leaders we get. I will try to address some of my concerns as follows:

1. Chasing the Shadows: The social media has been turned to a place where people from different ethnic extractions come to bash one another. Being a Yoruba, Ibo or Hausa is not what you select or choose, it pleases God in His infinite mercy to make you an Hausa, Ibo or Yoruba as the case may be. Poverty, sickness, joblessness, careless death etc does not recognize whether you are an Ibo or Hausa or Yoruba. I have seen many good ibo people, good Yoruba people and good hausa people, good Christians and good muslims. Vice versa, I have come across many bad Yoruba people, bad Ibo people, bad Hausa People, Bad Christians and bad muslims. No ethnic group is bad, God has created us to do good. I am a Nigerian of Yoruba extraction and I have many good Ibo and Hausa friends. I don't see them as different from me, I love them as fellow human beings and they do the same. My encounter with a few Yoruba people or Ibo people will not make me to generalize.

I have been praying that our generation will be light to the Country but with the plenty ethnic hatred on the social media platforms, I cry for my beloved country and that is part that makes me feel bad about being a Nigerian.

2. Accountability in Governance: I often ask whether we often think as a nation. When I hear people comment about whether someone should be voted for or not, they do not focus on the real issues. In advanced countries, political aspirants are taken to task on their policies and programmes. But here in Nigeria, we focus on chasing shadows. He is a Muslim, he is a Christian, He is a Yoruba, He is an Hausa etc - those are the comments you hear from people instead of focusing on the real issues that affect our lives. Whether someone is a muslim or christian, how does that concern us or add value to our lives.

The political class knowing fully well that we are very gullible often focus on telling or sponsoring sentiments since they know that is what we care about. That is why someone can spend 4 years and we don't ask sensible questions on much money has been received by the government and what have they done with the money. I am a Christian but I don't care if my President or Governor is a muslim or not. All I want is a man I can be proud of in terms of performance.

3. Sainthood in Politics: I have often heard people talk about how PDP and APC are the same. Political parties are vehicles and you cannot stop people of shaddy characters from joining. From my little experience of politics in Nigeria, we have heard people of unquestionable character contest elections using the so-called "Saint" Party e.g. Chief Odumegwu Ojukwu and Chief Gani Fawehinmi of blessed memories once contested for presidency using APGA and NPC, how many people voted for them? What I have realized that we need two (2) strong parties but the parties will contain both the good and the bad. It is left for us to make a choice based on the personality of the candidate. For those dreaming that there will be party that will comprise only saints, they had better be dreaming.


4. Terrorism: With the advent of the boko Harram comes our usual buck passing game. Why can't we as a nation acknowledge our shortcomings and come together to address our security concern. I have heard many people blaming the northerners. While I will not argue that some elites might be benefitting from the insecurity, many downtrodden people are suffering in the north. Many lives of innocent people have been lost. If you have seen the pictures of parents of the Chibok girls, who do you think they are? They are very poor parents that are going through a lot of trauma. If we cannot help them, the best we can do is to keep our mouth shut instead of creating ethnic hatred on the social medium. PDP will want us to believe that it is APC that is sponsoring Boko Haram because they know we are gullible people. If that is true, then it is an indictment on the PDP Government that they know the sponsors of Boko Haram and they have not arrested them. If PDP knows the sponsors as they claim by accusing APC, why have they not arrested them? Do you think that if PDP has a little information that APC is involved, they would have arrested them because it is an advantage to them. It is glaring that PDP do not have any evidence to link APC to Boko Haram but because they know that Nigerians don't ask sensible questions, they will sponsor sentiments so as to cover their incompetence to protect Nigerians.

Conclusion:
Though I have so many thoughts, I will just stop here for now. If the quality of the future leaders are the people commenting on the social media, we had better be scared about the future of our nation. Where do we turn to, God forbid if the next generation of leaders are that ethnic bigots that we have on the social media. I pray God help us as a nation.

una no dey tire?, we dey complain for the long epistle you come add this one join

aregbe is truly working to make osun people poorer

order now

korel9: That's interesting. I hope his love for Africa will motivate him towards securing a cure for his discovery.

sure I believe the UN will coopt him soon so he can come back and render his expertise. He did a lot towards the fight against AIDS in Africa during his time as the ED of UNAIDS so I am very sure he will be part of the Ebola response team.

Judas just got impeached by Jesus for taking bribe

this is quite revealing. I once worked directly under Dr Piot at the UNAIDS. He loves Africa so much.
