I have a question o: Did she commit the crime on any of the the university campuses?

HEAVEN4444:
LOL well putting it together i would say ataga nacked one time and that was the agreed for amount. olosho is one nackies per pay. our man ataga in his drug induced haze was still extra randy and wanted another round and so the girl refused and said thats extra money. ataga in his drug induced randy haze stupidly gave her the PIN and told her to take the amount she wants so he can continue the drug induced nackies. meanwhile the girl just decided, why nack this fool when i have his card and PIN ? so she commits to obliterating ataga and escaped with his card and pin

My Oga, I agree with the last two sentences. You are still accepting her scripted story.

theFilmtric:
We are all Yoruba in the end

Of course, my brother.

theFilmtric:
I am Ake

I understand
You are Owu right?
Why are you misspelling the words "Owu" and "Alake"?

You are not wrong and I do not notice the misspellings, may be system fault.

I am expecting someone to give us a possible verisimilitude of what actually happened based on what the girl said. She had revealed what she meant not to say. Can somebody put it together? Nigerians and Nairlanders are smart now?

theFilmtric:
I am Egba
Why was the Abeokuta government called "Egba united government"
With the Alake the paramount person?

I can now get the import of your stand. First, I can infer that you are egba gbagura. Second, I can also infer that you can't see reason why owus cannot just be a subgroup of egba like gbagura,Oke-On a, Ake and Ibara. Third, you believed and clamour for paramountiness of Alake over all others kings in Abeokuta( just to be frank).
A short junketure into the history of Abeokuta would have just helped to clarify the fact that Abeokuta was migrated to by all the present kingdoms in Abeokuta starting from 18th century. The Egbas comprising subgroups such as Ake, Gbagura, Ibara, and Oke-Ona came from the thick bush of the forest and earlier together before Owus to Abeokuta. Owus were moving from place close to Ibadan( but part of Ibadan today) originally to Lagos as directed by oracle, but were convinced to stay with Egbas in Abeokuta by Egba War chief to help checkmate the Dahomey. That explains how the Owus are strategically located in Abeokuta.
That is just a name picked by foreigners for recording purpose the way southern part of Nigeria is named Benin coast or so. The issue if paramount ruler ship of A lake over Egbaland also to some extent has historical sides. Actually, Alake might be right to claim paramountship over the egbas kingships, this can only be refuted by other egba groups. What I know and sure of is that he Alake then was chosen to just represent other kings and on getting to the meeting claimed paramountship. He actually tried to absorb other kingships, but for the well-informed and royalty Olowu for rejecting Alake demand for the other kings to relocate to their villages.

On re-examination of the language used here to refer to the Owus, I think it will be proper to put each in right context. I noticed something like: Owu Egba, Owu in egbaland, Egba Ow u. A person born of parenthood of Owu and Egba or joint name for Ow u people and Egba people that have intermarried and somehow similar, but with still distinct features between the two group will not be wrong to be referred to as Egba-Owu or Owu-Egba. Owu in Egba land means a section of egba or connotes Owu sojourning or living as migrant in Egbaland. Egba Ow u would mean a subgroup.

Gbagura:
Egba òwú does exist. Obasanjo and Amosun are from òwú in Ẹ̀gbá.

Are you Gbagura man?

TripleOh7:
Interesting.

Are Nupe not also kinda Yoruboid?

Yorubaa and Nupe are blood related. If I am not wrong the great Oshodi is Nupe. If some claim to be Yoruba, well and good and if some claim separate identity, so well and good.

Gbagura:
Òwú in Ẹ̀gbá don't think that way. They are in the vanguard of Ẹ̀gbá development. Infact they are more Ẹ̀gbá than the rest of us.

Yes and no. Yes, because some also have mothers from Egba sides, but most importantly brotherhood. The people in Abeokuta see one another as brothers and sisters. No, because if you take time and listen to the owus, you will realize from their language ( the way they relate and interact), dialect( exactly like Oyo) and dispositions are quite different. Though, most Ow us will not complain if they are called Egba, but when you want to misbehave they will tell you that you are doing mistake.

Christistruth00:
Ok Owu in Egbaland, Thank you

Please what of Modakeke some say they are Oyo others Claim they are Owu but most of the Elders have Owu Tribal Marks and yet still Claim an Oyo ancestry

Sorry, not Owu in Egbaland. Though Abeokuta is Egbaland likewise Owuland. Reason being that they all migrated to the place starting from around 18th century and they all brought their crowns to the place. The first Alake in Abeokuta was crowned very few years before new Olowu, I think within 3 years. Also note that it is A lake of Egbaland not A lake of Abeokuta.
On Modakeke, You see we have to agree with whatever they say they are. Modakeke of today are product of war, migration and marriage. You will find Oyo, Ife, Ow u and so on amongst them. What matters is what do they identify with. Another angle is Oyo and Ow u linkage which may be difficult to disentangle except the elders.

Gbagura:
Egba òwú does exist. Obasanjo and Amosun are from òwú in Ẹ̀gbá.

They are both Owus in Abeokuta. They are not Egba Owu . Another thing is that their parents are owu (father and mother). Obasanjo is from olumosi while Amosun is from Molaasin both of Owu.
Furthermore, Egba is a sub-Yoruba group like Ow u while Abeokuta is a geographical location.

Christistruth00:
Which part of Lagos? I know there are Egba and Ijebu located Owu

Obasanjo is Egba Owu

First there is nothing called Egba Ow u. Simply Ow u in Abeokuta. Furthermore, I can give some in Lagos such as: Owu Ikosi, Owu Gbawojo, Ow u Igbooye, Owu Mosafejo (Badagry) and Ow u Maiyegun ( Et I- Os a), OwU Mushin.

@op, Owus are in Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Os un, Kwara and in Benin republic

I've just taken a sacred oath each of those patriots have taken. The oath
first sworn by George Washington. But the American story depends not on
any one of us, not on some of us, but on all of us. On we the people who
seek a more perfect union. This is a great nation, we are good people.
And over the centuries through storm and strife in peace and in war
we've come so far. But we still have far to go.

I need a lawyer to prepare a case to sue Biden. He just used Nigeria slogan. "Good People, Great Nation". He can only save himself from prosecution by appointing more Nigerians.

The old man could avoid this embarrassing and unfounded allegation if he spends time to learn the norms and culture of Obasanjo clan. However, I know polician can say or do anything to be seen important

jomarq:
it started like this,I give her money to start business after much prejor from my mum that you need wife to be doing something bra bra bra.i give her 100k to start.she later come back to tell me that the money is not enough since she need to secure portion (OK bizz).now I give her another 100k that is not my money(meeting money)b/c am the treasurer.but i didn't tell her that it is meeting money and meeting is closing next month.when I ask her, she said that husband doesn't borrow wife money and get it back I should ask my mum.Elder please is it true b/c I don't know how to make 100k in the next 3weeks.l

Sorry, I cannot understand you. You expect your wife to pay back money you gave her. You don't even expect your girlfriend to pay back. Your woman owns you. You don't pay back to yourself. However, if you borrow from her you must pay back unless you're not the head of the house.

Emmanuelhector:
At home, we hate Hausa.. but for Yoruba, we have nothing against them.. But Yoruba likes measuring dick with us even when they know we are now ahead of them..

What a world?

Nerro042:
Thanks have a blessed day

You are welcome.

Emmanuelhector:
We don’t need to prove anything to anyone.. The hate motivates us ..

What hatred? At least for Yorubas, I can tell you till of recent no one hate Igbo in Yorubaland, this I can vouch for � till 2010. However I noticed that some Yorubas are now taking cognizance of some elements that are full of hatred.

Nerro042:
You seem like a sensible folk. But we both know impersonation flows all around in this forum from all tribes. And it is a sad reality because some misinformed people take the twisted views of tribalists in this forum to generalize a whole tribe or region. You see things like "you igbos", "you yourubas", "you fulani's". Even though nairaland does not represent even 0.1 of of any region youth population alone. My brother nairaland should be bringing youths of the country together, but it has failed woefully.

Thanks brother. I have repeatedly told them on this forum that race is nothing. Some people are using it as a tool to acquire position and wealth. However, I am not too young to know what happened in this country, though not yet born at the start of civil war. I had had occasions to inform many from m different tribes that this is where we are and this is we are going if we fail to correct our step. I am only disturbed when I am thinking how the country will be better for all and just check this forum and start seeing rubbish. Along my area in Lekki- Ajah axis there is a banner that reads- we must all live together as brothers or die as fools.

I pray to make it there someday [/A TRUTHFUL YORUBA MAN...

HOW SAD FOR THE YORUBA NATIONA TRUTHFUL YORUBA MAN...

HOW SAD FOR THE YORUBA NATION

Did the Igbos put guns on anybody's head before buying up Alaba, Ajegunle, isolo and Oshodi in Lagos?

Did they use juju before the Ibadan surrendered Iwo Road to them?

And what were we looking at before the Igbos took over Isida and Adeti in Ilesa ?

Where were the YORUBAS when the Igbos thrived and built 90% of the Hotels in Abuja. Was there a law that excluded the YORUBAS from selling building materials? Dei Dei building materials market in Abuja is 90 % Igbo owned.

So the more we point one finger at the Igbos, the more we have the other four fingers pointing at our laziness and lack of initiative as a society.

The YORUBAS should have been better with all our education, but we may be worse than the Fulanis who just roam around the bush.

Why? Because we lack the entrepreneurship spirit. We just want salaries from doing 8am to 5pm job. We proceed in foolishness and we persist in hoping to reap plenty without sowing hard. The Igbos are different, hence we are now jealous and envious.

We love wasteful parties and Aso Ebi. Just a little business without even making any profit yet, we usually call musicians to spray money like coffetti .

Where are all the Board Members of Ebenezer Obey today? Where is lawyer Omoyinmi and Lanre Badmus? Where is Oroki Social Club of Osogbo? Where is Felates of Ilesa and the likes whose trade mark was to bring Sunny Ade to Ilesa every Xmas, to waste all income gathered for the year?

The Yoruba society wasted their leading lights on excessive consumption and wasteful attitudes. We wasted our capital on frivolous social gatherings.

We took religion to ridicoulous levels, such that the wealthiest pastors and churches are now Yorubas. But all the wealth extracted by the churches from the Yoruba nation is also merely flaunted to show whose God is the most miraculous.

So we have become paupers and destitutes, as the Yoruba nation cannot now pay salaries. Pensions are owed for years.

Tell me, is Osun State filled with human beings or goats to have tolerated Aregbesola, when they rejected Akande. Say it loud, is the Constituted Authority of Ibadan sane to just bring about 21 Obas from nowhere to receive salaries, where there is no money to reopen Ladoja Akintola University?

Are the Ondos so wise to have allowed Mimiko to devastate their terrain as to be now saddled with 12 months salary arrears? What of Ekiti with rabble rousing Fayose and the intellectually arrogant Fayemi?

But the Igbos are hard workers. Let us not continue to deceive ourselves. 20 of their young boys can live in the shop from where they sell goods. There is no place too dirty or remote for them to hibernate and incubate their ideas. Give them 5 years, you will see them buy and take over all shops and lands.

True, some of them are criminals, but majority of the Igbo youths build and build physical structures always, while the YORUBAS are content with looking for salaried jobs, so that they can have siesta in the afternoons and then attend parties on Saturdays. Then spend Sundays in church wishing and praying for divine miracles.

How foolish! As the Igbo youths are meeting and strategizing on Sundays, so that they can gather money and buy the houses and lands owned by our Yoruba fathers, the Yorubas youths are busy in churches on Sundays praying for miracles.

Whether we like it or not, Obokungbusi Town Hall will soon be on concessional PPP sale. The Igbos will buy it. The proceeds will be used to pay backlog of salaries owed to impoverished Ijeshas. It will come willy nilly.

It will happen even in a declared Oduduwa Republic. Afterall, the Chinese, the Lebanese and the South Africans are buying us out with reckless abandon. See how ShopRite is buying up everywhere. I heard that they bought Owena Motel estate in Akure. How come we did not sell it to the Igbos?

We shall continue to grumble and hate the Igbos until eternity. Unless we spy on them, copy their ways and imbibe their 'can do' attitude.

The Yoruba nation and society have been pauperised and destituted. In desperation, we shall soon start to behave like the Almajiris in the North.

In grinding poverty and out of jealousy, the Almajiris of the North regularly loot Igbo shops and businesses. Very soon Yoruba urchins will start looting too to show that they hate the Igbos.

Even some of us here will defend it to show our hatred for the Igbos. Whereas, the looting is as a result of hunger and uselessness of our society.

First, You are not a Yoruba. I always overlook you, people, rubbish that has nothing to do but to occupy yourself with racial banters. Which Iwo road are you talking about? Though I do not frown against anyone having majority in any field once the group has the dexterity to succeed, you people utterances are making me to start being watchful. I know there are many Igbos that are not as vitrilous as you, but preponderance of this, in a faceless forum, makes me question their character henceforth. I don't why some Yorubas will join you in exchanging banters.

@ op, while appreciating your felicitation please note that Owu is not egba and not a subgroup of egba. Owu is a Yoruba subgroup and are spread to not less than 5 states in Nigeria.

@OP, whether your so called " good girl" girlfriend is finally aware of the pregnancy and Lola or not, you are a moving coffin as along as you are with the "good girl". Unless you might misrepresented or misunderstood her response when you related a scenario to her.
I don't ask you to marryLola, but your "good girl" is dangerous to your health and life.

I am just laughing to hear this again.
My question to op-have you ever met any other owu men especially those of obasanjo age? I know you won't be saying this gibberish.

If I recall my history correctly, it was Awolowo that reduced the power of Alaafin and elevated Ooni because of politics, i think Alaafin was in support of Ziks party.

You are right here.

Finally ......UNN has been the only school I knew off that it was easier for a Yoruba man , northerner or south south to get admission than an Igbo man

Had a friend from Edo who entered economics with 218 average ....why someone from IMO n anambra can't even get with 260

My Gombe neighbor got pharmacy with 235 while I know people from Igbo who got 270 n didn't get

If you are from bayelsa 260 can get u medicine but if you are from Igbo ...305 might not get you in


Felt it was messed up ...because unilag ,UI and OAU won't give Igbo's that treatment ,same with ABU or uni port

UNN model is the model all schools should follow

45% national merit ,40% state merits , 10%( staff kids,host community ,special case ) 5% ( well man know man

I disagree with you. UI has no catchment. They don't care about who born you as long as you are homo sapien. Moreover, which state is Igbo?
