It's called doppelganger... One of God and mother nature's way of reminding us that we are all just one big family.

Your own doppelganger is probably somewhere faraway right now, maybe way older than you are or much more younger... Maybe he or she lived centuries ago or still waiting for his or her great-great-great-great-great grand parent to get off Nairaland and get married... Yea that's you!

According to research by Dr. Esteller, he found that the 16 pairs who were “true” look-alikes shared significantly more of their genes. “ These people really look alike simply because they share important parts of the genome, or the DNA sequence,” he said.

They didn't have to come from the same tribe, ethnic group or even the same country... But yet they are still related.

The world is such a small place... Why all the tribalism and bigotry my brother? You probably only know your grandparents in person and have heard stories about your great grandparents.... Ok so what about their own parents? And their own grand parents? Their Great grand parents and the ones after them? It's a very long line bro... A very long one. And somewhere along that line, you probably shared the same ancestral parents with members of the same tribes you have grown to hate today. I will give you time to think about it.

You see...??

We are all just one big giant family... Especially we that are geographically/geopolitically close to each other. We are all literally brothers and sisters who don't know each other. So why all the hatred for one another?

Lol What a joke.... Muric is not qualified to judge anybody on religious matters.

What a hypocrite!

Nandoife:
Forgot these politicians my brother and fave your front. Their all fighting for their own warfare and nothing more

You are a very smart man!!! Until we Nigerians realize that our politicians don't care even a bit about the people but themselves. That would be the day we start getting it right.

Nigerian politicians are the worst politicians i have seen anywhere in the world. No direction, no initial agenda or fixed ideology... Everything is freestyle! getting into power is all that matters to them... Nothing else!
The way they shamelessly switch parties like Olosho just to win election will tell you everything you need to know.
Okay just try Imagining Donald Trump switching to Democrats just to win election? Like abandoning his initial goals and ideologies? Shame no go kill am? Oh and talking about shame? It's one thing our politicians have 0% of! Sadly.
And the worst part is that most Nigerians don't even see anything wrong with this Olosho politics. Their tiny brains didn't tell them that these politicians are only after their personal interests and nothing more!!

Whenever I see my fellow youths cheering and supporting these politicians I weep! Bro... Low IQ is our major problem in this country. An average Nigerian is a brain dead mugu! And the ruling class know this!

Our politicians don't care about what they look like in the eyes of the world... Cos like I said earlier... they are 100% shameless! Which is another major problem we have in this country. Cos When a man is shameless and cares little about what people think about him and his house, such man would never bother to put his house in order. It's a simple psychology!

I just wish my people can finally wake up and start using even if only 1% of their brain capacity.... Only then will our elites start regarding us.

Here we go again, I never thought I would ever see this again for the rest of my life lol... Bro? I hated my business studies teacher because of this shorthand! And she was my neighbor and a friend of my mom. I always saw those shorthand symbols whenever I looked at her and her kids.. I hated that innocent woman and her entire family because of this particular subject. Lord forgive me... Amen.

Like, you took your shower, wear clothes, put on your shoe, spray perfume and enter studio go snap birthday photos

Nawao. Men are becoming feminine these days and it's bad for humanity.



Birthday blessings to you sha.

Lol the matter tire me. If you talk dem go call you old-school. Real Men are in decline worldwide... Go to tiktok and you go dey your house dey shame for some some "men" and what they have become.

RPG2020:
Who be this itj? Who know you for temple

Lol Mentioning T for here show say u no be anything. See boy.. If e hungry you to join go meet men and join. Cos Impersonating Ayes will get you killed quickly by Ayes than joining a Rival kush. No try this thing wey you try here for outside. Sincere advice.

RPG2020:
Don't say what you don't know

Everywhere for Benin Birds are rugged

Lol bird is the easiest confraternity to join anywhere in the world. I once left a barbing saloon after haircut and it was closed immediately for bird initiation ceremony hosted inside the barbing saloon lol. No background check no long trial, just meet any bird you know give am 2k him go call another bird dem go initiate you sharp sharp.... You Don become airlord be that.

I don leave this life behind long time ago... But Don't compare birds to real men that went through hell and back to become the monsters they are. Having more population(which I'm not sure you do) in Benin doesn't mean una get mouth for Bini. One aye is equivalent to 50 birds... Cos no be the same material and quality dem be.

Bini na sacred ground for all Ayes... If e start like this no be only Bini men dey do the shooting... Volunteers dey come from everywhere to defend the sacred ground. That's why Ayes can never lose in Bini.

Say no to cultism! If you never join pls don't join... Your life would be way much better as a jew or whatever they call you. It's a sincere advice.

Lol yall play toomuch.

Hmmm and this is why the Igbos will continue lagging behind in this game of politics. Working to have an Igbo representative there is the best game plan... The country is already messed up! what else can go wrong?

Fighter2029:
When they beging to excel in business 10 years from now,some tribes will increase their level of jealousy and hatred.

Calm down Comrade! We the national association of vawulence havnt endorsed this vawulence yet

Women... Ignorant set of people, especially Nigerian ones.

WhisperedNoise:
In Al-Hikman, you are mandated to wear a hijab Muslim or not.

leave them... They always cry first when they get served with their own medicine.

No religion... I repeat, no religion is more intorelant than Islam!

Go to Europe(supposed Christian region) Islam is allowed to thrive to any extent... They put mosque anywhere they want... They call for prayers as loud as they want.
But as a Christian... Go try something similar in Arab countries especially Saudi and see if you don't end up in jail.

Muslims are not qualified to complain about intorelance... Not even in the slightest way!

I'm not a Christian fanatic but I hate hypocracy more than anything. in UAE I only saw one actual church.... A catholic church, it was a bit big and magnificent. No doubt... But Only God knows the amount of political strings the pope pulled to make that happen. Outside that, other churches for there na hide and seek churches.

Fake girl looking for attention online. But still, not flushing the toilet after use says alot about a girl's hygiene.

Lol NL sabbi censorship when it comes to Islam ehn Chaiii. Elon Musk should also buy Nairaland!

sisisioge:
If he looked, he would have found him! He had a better chance at finding him than the boy has at finding the father because he at least would know the full name of his baby mama. Boy does not even know the guy's name or where he is from to begin his search. As for the woman,its really dreadful that she's keeping the guy's info from his son....the misery will just fuel his curiosity more.

If she had killed him, it would have been easier to tell him from the start that his father is dead without pointing any fingers to herself.

Just shut up already! The more you type the more foolish you sound. What the heck is wrong with you kid? What if the woman lied to the man about her real name? You here screaming you could find anyone with just there name... You know how many people that have exactly the same name and surname? Besides their encounter wasn't yesterday ago, not like he got his phone number to start tracking with. This is Africa not some first world country where everybody is on the national data base. have you tried searching for an ordinary childhood friend online? Even with their full name, it's not that easy young man!
And again this woman is in Ghana! Ghana! That's another country not a town in Imo State or Ibadan. Just grow up man...

You should be concerned on why the woman has refused to reveal any Info about the man to his son. Cos the boy is now a MAN, he is old enough to know and deserves to know about his father, even if the man na serial killer, it's still the son's right to know at least. He's not 8 years old. It's wrong for the mother to continue keeping such information from a full grown man... Unless she did something really terrible that she didn't want the young man to find out about... It's possible that she's protecting the skeleton in her own closet.

So please just shut the hell up!

sisisioge:
Hmmmm...the curiosity of human beings. We will always want to know where we came from. If only your mom understands this....

Anyways, for her to have opted to raise you all by herself baring the cost all alone, your dad must have been one heck of a deadbeat father! Why hasn't he tried to find you all this while? Even though she crossed to Ghana, did she change her name? I for instance only need to know someone's surname to find them on facebook even if they do not have a facebook account....a cousin or any other relative will surely have an account! Hmmm....anyways, she alone can help you find him but brace yourself to be disappointed when you eventually find him. You mother tried though....it is not easy raising a child alone, I just wish she hadn't been too uptight about his info.

You seem like a child who does not know anything about life or even about women. Do not judge a man you havnt heard his story... The woman hasn't even told her own story yet and you are already judging the man based on your shallow knowledge on life and reality?

If you are a young girl pls forgive me for being too mean on you, cos you simply typed the only thing your brain could generate, it's a female's basic instinct to defend another female automatically like a programmed bot when it comes to things like this.

But if you are man? Let me say around 23 or 24 years old and above? Then let me be the one to tell you that you are a dumb ass and a disgrace to the male genes in you! Get the fuk out of here before you piss more men off!

One sad thing about this country is that no arm of the government is independent.
Who ever controls the Aso rock controls everything else, from the law enforcement departments to INEC to even the Judiciary that was supposed to be the last hope of an ordinary man. Smh they are all serving the presidency and not the people.

Tell me, how can black man ever get there with this kind of messed up mentality.

PandoraObi:
Igbos on rampage

LP is national movement, not an Igbo thing.

OK Peter Obi won Lagos on presidential election, so by this your logic, it means Igbo has more population in Lagos than any other tribe...? Including the Yorubas that are desperately claiming the old slave and raw material trading town established by the British. Lagos was carefully chosen cos it was almost unoccupied at the time. Making it a safe heaven for the Europeans who were avoiding constant raids by the locals as it was common at the time... Especially at more populated ports.
Now after a long period of national treasure(mostly generated from the South South) devoloped Lagos as the then nations capital, a city that was built to be the pride of the entire nation... Where everyone could come and feel at home. One tribe started claiming it for themselves even discriminating other tribes who's regional resources funded the development of the so called Lagos?

Black man will always be a black man... Smh.

haffaze777:
Jim iyke dey mad,wetin concern him concern Lagos State

Lol stop claiming Lagos state for yoruba. Lagos is a baby, no one is really from here.

And you are supposed to be a proud member of the fighting for the liberation of the black race abi no be so una talk?

The link above is just a short lecture amongst many you can dig and read up on by yourself with verifiable facts and first hand commentaries.

Being proud of Africa and "fighting for the liberation of the black race"... Doesn't mean we should deny the bitter reality and result to "black propaganda" to feel good about our failure as a race.
First realizing that we have had it all wrong should be the first step of our journey if we really want to finally get it right... While denying our failures is the best way to remain the same.

It's time we stop blaming the west for where we are today, cos it hasn't been working. It's time we stand up and start moving forward.

And if any of yall actually read my comment right with less emotional attachment, yall would have noticed that I didn't "completely" dismiss our contributions to the world. I was just saying it wasn't much to write home about. especially when compared to Asians(mostly Chinese, Persians and co)Arabs and of course the Europeans.

If we really had it right... European imperialists wouldn't have been able to colonize(also enslave) almost a whole damn continent almost effortlessly. And BTW, Why wasn't it the other way around??
If we really had it right? as the Europeans first arrived at our shores, they would have met a very strong and advanced civilization worthy of emulating,respected and cautious of. Not a bunch of "savages"(as they called us) that they felt was at their mercy, way beneath them and waiting to be colonized/enslaved! C'mon Think.. It's not illegal to think!

Why?

And I ask again, why wasn't it the other way around? Why wasn't it us arriving at their own shores with a strong advanced navy fleet? Why not? Does it seem odd? Why? Were we created differently?
Why wasn't it swahili the official language of half of the world's population today?
Why wasn't numbers and math done in some African originated symbols?
Why wasn't the planets named by Africans after African traditional gods and stuff?
Why wasn't one of our local traditional religions dominating the world today instead of Islam, Christianity and Buddhism??
And most importantly (while at it blaming everyone else for our failures) we should ask ourselves this.... Why of all the previously heavily Colonized regions in the world, we Africans are still the least developed and the one mostly still struggling? You still don't think something is wrong with us somewhere?

What have we been doing wrong and still doing wrong? Bro... All These are the actual questions we should be asking if we really want to start getting it right. not blaming the whole world for our shortcomings and resulting to "black conspiracy theories" just to make ourselves feel better about our failures as a race!

GreyLaw:
Putin is fighting what is bigger than him. He will end badly, like every dictator in history has ended. He has just been declared wanted by the Hague. It might be when he gets old, but he is in hot soup.

Stop discussing things above your pay grade. You don't have an idea why Putin is fighting; it has nothing to do with any expansion. When Putin invaded Georgia in 2008 was it caused by America? When he attacked Ukraine in 2014 was it caused by America. Please discuss issues you understand and learn what you don't know. I have friends from Poland and they'll simply tell you that Russians are natural expansionists and Putin's MAIN GOAL is the revival of old soviet union. In Putin's mind all the countries that broke out of former USSR must be forcefully brought back in to resurrect that old block.

Well bro, your argument and everything you know about Russia's relation with former Soviet countries are obviously pro western narrative/version.

So it's really difficult and pointless to argue with people like you... Cos Western propaganda is the strongest thing in the universe after graphene.

Creamypie:
Putin forcing his people to fight senseless war

Putin is doing what he believes is best for the safety of his people... His people know this, that's why they love and adore him... Despite all the western propaganda against him.
So While we blame Putin for this war, we should equally blame those that lives all the way in the north America but still have their military bases and missiles stationed all over the world.... While their drones patrols as far as the black sea?

You see what Putin is trying to avoid?

If the United States(Russian sworn enemy) had stayed in their corner and Russia didn't feel threatened... I doubt if this war would have happened.

The Globalists America wants to control everyone and everything in the universe. And they are willing to start a third world war to achieve that goal. When you stare long and hard enough you will eventually see the picture.

This is very normal and happens in every war. Not every man is blessed or should I say cursed with courage and bravery.

War is no joke... No man ever comes back from war 'completely' alive and the same, a part of you must surely die out there.

HellVictorinho7:
in other words,u need palmi.

#Liked.

SIRTee15:
Have u read about ancient African migration b4 yarning ignorance.
Another educated illiterate saying Africans were naked when the Europeans arrived.
FYI textile was African biggest export to Europe in pre colonial times after slave trade.

I would have really loved to continue with this conversation. But your reply was really childish and insultive... Im too old for for such, so have a really nice day young man. Peace bro.

gaby:
Did humans ever survive or lived without the stuff you listed above at some point in their lives?

Also, you need to read more and broadly, you'd come to understand that most of the inventions you reeled out were originally from black men who were denied their rights and recognition by way of the whitrman's "Patent".

What and what did black man invent? Oh you mean ancient Egyptians? We weren't even that closely genetically related.. So leave all these Black conspiracy theories. 'Typical' Black man never contributed much to the globe. Most of us didn't even have clothes when Europeans arrived in Africa.
So Bro... we Africans need to accept the fact that we have been doing everything wrong. that's the first step of finally getting it right. I'm a very proud black man, but let's call a spade a spade.

God1000:
Lies, what's your fountainhead?

Russia will never engage in such reckless behaviour.

Both US and Russian commanders communicate regularly to avoid such incidents.


But if this truly happened, then Putin is biting more than he can chew


US no longer sees Russia as a threat or competitor, the focus is on China now

Lol if you mean Militarily, then what's stopping Nato from invading Russia like they did to Libya or Iraq if they no longer consider Russia a threat?

Don't be deceived by what's going on in Ukraine bro... Just think freely for yourself.

Russia is not going all out on Ukraine, at least not yet. They are being calculative to avoid being vulnerable... Putin is not only a strong man, he is also a strategist... A former KGB agent no fit dull...
A smart hunter doesn't empty all his bullets on a Deer(Ukraine) when there are still Lions and wolves(US,Nato and EU) waiting patiently for that to happen so they can devour him.

It's just pure common sense bro... Not a rocket science or something.

The Western elites know this, they know more than you do... but somehow they are telling you that Russia is overestimated, that Russia failed in Ukraine, that Ukraine is winning blah blah blah... My guy, All that na strategic propaganda to garner more global support for Ukraine.(Cos no one likes to invest on a losing team)

According to Western media, Russia has been running out of weapons for over 6 months now... How can someone with common sense even believe that? How can Russia of all people run out of weapons just under one year in Ukraine? Geeeez!

Bro even Nazi Germany fought almost the entire Europe and North America for about 4 years straight without running out weapons. But na Russia one of the biggest weapon maker in the modern history, Russia that has been preparing militarily and economically for WWIII since the end of cold War?? Na that Russia go come run out of weapons just under one year fighting one country? Not even a super powerful country but Ukraine?

Lol Mehn Western propaganda is a big insult to my intelligence i swear... Mehn I'm fvcking out of here!

The Brits are the most corrupt country in the world in terms of foreign policy... And BBC is nothing but a propaganda machine!

Alusiizizi:
Most of them don't understand the Igbo. Ngige would probably not even get up to 2000 votes even in Anambra state. If Oshinbajo contested in that election the choice between him and Obi would have been a really tough one. Trust me.

fact.

Igbo people do not play tribal politics... Igbo only vote whomever we sincerely feel that can deliver.

Igbos would heavily vote Prof Osinbanjo over our own ngige or Orji Kalu anyday. That's Igbo people for you. I usually shake my head whenever Urchins say Obidient movement is a tribal thing.

helinues:
Even with mixed pidgin, still incomprehensible.

Slow down this time around

Lmaooo Im dead! Chill out too bro damn

What the f.uck is wrong with you
