naijababe:
Ijangban ke? Me wey cool pass ice water 

No need for fronting girl, you know you'd love to have a kid like me. In fact i'm already sure  that all your kids will be named after me

What dialect is "Ijagban"?  It's Ijogbon.   

BTW, I heard you are an "Omoluabi." Clap Clap Clap! An Oscar for your performance, my friend.

The beginning of Garri Head extraordinaire.

Including political affiliations? I dont think so. I think their marriage has a problem already, the ACN friend only helped in making it obvious.

OAM4J,
I didnt want to derail the other thread.  So, let's continue here.

While Political Affiliation may not be a deal-breaker, if your life is about politics, I can see how you wouldn't even move towards someone with whom you strongly disagree.  I imagine a politically-minded person would address that issue before they even allow themselves to have feelings for a prospect.  The same way, you would at first glance eliminate any prospect not in congruence with a basic set of conditions.

Typical conditions: Race, Religion, Age, Ethnicity/Tribe, Pre-existing Children, Education, Previous Marriage, Height, Criminal history*, Job/Financial Prospects . . .

*Sometimes not just conditions, but absolute deal-breakers

dayokanu:
I am certain she speaks better than you and most likely writes better. She was able to speak pure Yoruba without mixing with English like the Amulumola most Yorubas speak nowadays.

Sheeeeeeet!  You must be high.  It is Saturday evening after all.  Siting there with a big ol spliff in your hand in big ol Texas.

Watch the video, Pothead.

We whites rock!

So glad i'm one.

Rgp92:
We blacks rock too  

dayokanu:
Yes. we the Oyo ppl are the original Yoruba.

[quote author=tpia@ link=topic=666080.msg8321816#msg8321816 date=1305407633]Dayokanu this isnt history section.

Stay on topic and admire the girl or what else brings you here.[/quote]Whities rock!  Darkies not so much.  Dayokanu sucks! 

buzugee:
right. she just conveniently happens to be posted up at the election spots and speaks yoruba. she is being bred for spying work in nigeria. keep in mind USA has hugeeeeeeee interests in nigeria.

You can't tell Naijas nothing!  Leave them. 

long time no see woman. whats good ?

I am where I always am.  So mad at you, you have no idea.  We won't derail thread.  Look for me . . . 

buzugee:
CIA spy

I concur. Looks more like Mossad.

Sun of god:
Nigerian soildiers are the most 'Savage' as far as I'm concerned.

Why would you say something like that?  Did Nigeria military do an Abu Ghraib?  Or have you forgotten so soon?

hmmm.  I'm going to post a video on YouTube of me speaking English fluently, and watch the ass-kissing commence.  Maybe someone will even create a thread about me on CrackaLand.com.  Whoopee!  

GUYZ,  SEE THIS ONE, HE IS A GUY, HIS NAME IS KAYODE

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cURR0Aqc6So&feature=related

I clicked it, cos I thought he (Kolade, not Kayode) speaks better than the "fluent" girl, and had to turn it off halfway through.  But, he tried; he read phonetically from a script and is not proclaiming his fluency.  

OAM4J:
Including political affiliations? I dont think so. I think their marriage has a problem already, the ACN friend only helped in making it obvious.

That was a joke, old man! 

Plus, the OP has never been serious in his life, from what I can see. No way I'm going to give him a straight answer on anything.

juman:
Let your ACN wife go with your ACN friend and you look for and marry a PDP lady. 

What about the children? 

No!  Let the husband join ACN, the foolish man.   

This is why you should consider EVERYTHING before you marry someone. 

Seun:
Ok, I'll investigate naijababe.  Who else?  You can even use this thread.

I was serious about you providing an avenue for direct contact to the admins (since "report to moderator" button is broken), but kidding about the poster you want to investigate.  She's actually one of the best things about Nairaland. 

In case you also didn't get the tongue-in-cheek of my first post in this thread, I actually agree with the OP. 

naijababe:
Arodan  I only ever did one trip and it was my mum that sent me on the endlesss journey. I assumed it was some kind of sweet or cake being a sweet tooth. One of the women took pity on me and told me to sit down and rest; I fell asleep instantly and didnt wake until 3 hours later. You can say mum got her peace and quiet.

Best laugh I've had all day.  hahahaha.  I love your mom!  But I couldn't do that to mine own though.  Your mom is tough sha.  lol. 

What am I saying?  Of course I could do it if my kid was anything like naijababe.    The puzzle is coming together.

xperttiles:
Abeg make una no spoil my market o  I take God beg you

  No one wants to spoil your market.  If the demand for weave goes down, something else will take its place.  I'm sure you're industrious enough to cash in no matter what's in fashion.  For example, haircolor is very popular amongst women who wear their natural hair.

It's all good. 

Baaaaad Yoruba boy!  lol.  Are you sure you're not Japanese?

Well, I was younger than your sister.  I was around 6 or 7 years old.  I can't imagine what I was asking them that would tick them off so much they'd send me all over the island like that. ( Okay, just a half-mile radius where everyone knew me and could walk me home if I got lost or panicked.)

hmmm. Well, with me, I'm not sure they told me it was a cream.  I probably just assumed. lol

Is that typical?  From what you know, is it practiced in lots of other parts of Yorubaland?  What do they tell boys when they send then on an Arodan trip?

This is neat!  I want to hear more.  We should get Kilode in here to tell us what all his eyes have seen on his numerous Arodan jaunts.   

Katsumoto:
See yabis for me from everywhere.

You deserve it and more! What is an [i]awun [/i]and why do you all copy our language?

OAM4J:
[size=15pt]ROTFLMAO[/size]

You reminded me of my sister, she thought she was going to collect a wonderful cream too. her curiosity took the better of her. I remember I named her Omotoyiogbon after that.

Who sent her?  You?  How old was she?

I remember that specific Arodan trip, and could easily have been sent on several more after that, since, surprisingly, no one ever broke the rule and explained to me why I returned home empty-handed.  It wasn't until years and years later I figured it out.  The beauty of it is, they didn't overdo it - I don't remember any but the one trip, in fact.  Otherwise I'd had figured it out sooner, I'm sure.

Would I have told other gullible kids around me?  Heck, NO!  Let them experience it themselves; they'll have stories to regale their friends and family later on. 

Ofuks:
Before I left my village for the city I already knew things about the United States. . .

Note: this story is updated daily.

Okay, OP, I'm not saying whether I read the whole thing or not.  

But, from what I got, a woman liked you JUST FROM YOUR APPEARANCE in a picture.  NOT FROM YOUR WRITINGS, not anything else about you, not your values, not your goals, not your personality.  She likes you so much she travels to meet you and stay in your home alone!  

Talk about insane risks!

And then there's a lot of game playing on your part.  That about the gist of it?    

Anyway, good luck to both of you.

Fall in love with one, then ask her that question.

What do you want us to tell you, man?!

Wyclef Jean brings down the house after the 2nd minute mark.  Wait for it. 
Sorry about the quality of the John Legend video, but I watched the event live and believe he sang that song live, despite the audio-visual being out of sync here.

Katsumoto:
1. Katsumoto will not make Akara

Just admit you can't cook.  No one will mock you.  After all, you're a male of the species.

:::Pointing and laughing at Katsumoto::: 

O ya!  Ask me if I can cook akara?

[quote author=Kilode?! link=topic=590933.msg8300459#msg8300459 date=1305134025]@recent topic: It's amazing how much Yoruba elders get away with, It's like they enjoy scaring the bejesus out of little kids with those tales and rules.[/quote]Yeah.  My uncles told me people in Ghana aren't allowed to laugh.  I actually believed it for a while. Nothing to do with Yoruba tradition; they just fancied themselves the Laurel and Hardy of the family.

[quote author=Kilode?! link=topic=590933.msg8301281#msg8301281 date=1305142542]^^haha yea I remember Arodan very well, I've been on that wild goose chase a few times myself.[/quote]   Did you grow up in Lagos?  How popular was that in other parts of Yorubaland.  Being a precocious child, I imagine I irritated the hell out of my aunties.  I distinctly remember being sent on that fools errand one irole until the sun went down - from Isalegangan to Woro'Paye to Ile awon Tapa to Arooloya. . . All the while thinking Arodan was some sort of priceless body cream that only the select few possess, and has to be passed around from sisi to sisi.  WITCHES!!! 

:::Salivating at the thought of utilising that awesome teaching technique on my own pikins:::   

Katsumoto:
lol, I havent but its something I would love to do one day.

You'd have to find several others in the same vicinity who know of it and how it is played; otherwise you'd be stuck on the phone trying to explain it to Ajanlekoko or Naijababe, while the victim is already standing at the door waiting for the Arodan.

BTW, Katsumoto,
Why are so many of your peoples' names similar to Yoruba names?  Can you answer me that?  Japanese names bear a glaring resemblance to ours.  Quick!  Research it out, please. 

OAM4J:
am just coming online now, wey the Iya alakara in Brazil?

OAM4J:
kool

you sure say no be ita faji be this sha.  jst kidding.

very interesting!. thanks. 

What do you know of Ita Faji?  Epetedo boy like you! 

Did you see the assistant in the tight jeans?  That is totally a woman, wasn't it?  And there was another one facing her, which I mistakenly mistook for her reflection, at first.  I don't know why anyone would mistake her for a man.  Kilode is losing his signt or something. 

Katsumoto:
Its there for you, have a quick look please.

Do you know what an "Awun" is? 

OAM4J:
What creepy crawling thing? You mean tanwinji (mosquitoes larvae). They are not poisonous/harmful jor, they are protein and good for your body.

Eeewwwwwwww.  Gross.    OAM4J will eat anything! Actually, I was thinking they were tadpoles, but that didn't sound right.    

naijababe:
Wetin concern agbero with overload? Abegi o

"Abegi" ke?  Abe igi?  You mean under the tree where you and DK are K-I-S-S-I-N-G?! 

Gbam! https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria?topic=641483.0

dayokanu:
She can also come along, Some things are better in multiples

hmmm.  I was right. lol.  I knew you couldn't help yourself!  Old habits die hard.

OAM4J:
Yes, they said it means you are being initiated into the awo (cult) of awon Iya Osoronga (witches) or The Emeres- Ogbanjes.

Did you make that up?  

I'm not sure of the meaning nor the alleged repercussions; I just remember the warning. So many warnings to us as children. They figured if we won't learn by gentle scolding, fright and occasional caning will do the trick.

They also used to say all the time, "egbin omi o n pa eniyan." Or something like that.  With all the questionable kanga water and the huge water jugs (ikoko) sometimes harboring creepy crawly things, I can see why that saying had to come into play.  Fear will not stop us from hydrating o jare, heck no!

LagosShia:
please bring forth my "offensive" comments and if they are truly offensive and inappropriate i will apologize.?

You challenged his masculinity and wished he would not get the strength nor the inspiration to debate you.  I'm sure you know what you wrote, and if you see no offense there, there's no point in me belabouring it.

By the way, did you miss all the hateful propaganda threads created by your "Nigerian brothers and sisters" accusing Muslims of all sort of imaginary deeds, including them proceeding en masse from masjid to go commit  murder and mayhem?  You lose sight, and focus all your ire on someone like Muhsin.  Do you know who your enemies are at all?

If you don't think you should apologize, then don't.  I only wanted to bring your attention to something, and I have done so.  I'll withdraw from commenting further unless I feel obliged to do so.  Hoping for a good robust debate without name-calling. 

P.S. I was referring to anti-Islam Nairalanders, not Northerners, spewing hate about Muslims.

OAM4J:
Can someone post the iya alakara pic again pls.

naijababe:
@ kilode?! - Excellent article, thanks for sharing.  Katz, post pics on thread jo! Can u imagine my disappointment when I clicked and saw your ugly emperor? Make naijababe's day. I might send some home made Akara, Ekuru and even moinmoin your way 

hehehehe.  When Katsumoto wakes up in Kyoto, ask him nicely. lol.  What's the time difference anyway?  Don't know if Nippon is half a day behind or half a day ahead.  Don't care either.  All I know is, I dreamt about loads and loads of akara I couldn't eat! 

By the way, does anyone remember being told you shouldn't eat in your dreams?  Some Yoruba thing.  Ewo?  Or maybe it's just me.  hmmm.  The first time I ate in my dream, I understood.

dayokanu:
^^ I have been fasting and praying to get your attention so we can discuss serious issues

We can find our common interests and explore them together no hods barred

Can naijababe come too?  Anyway, I think you two are a match made in Wenger heaven. 

LagosShia,
You're passionate, but don't insult Muhsin! Just state your case. You turn people off when you behave like that. Has he insulted you?

I couldn't quote you because a couple of your comments were so offensive. Can't you see that?

dayokanu:
I have no doubt that we are compatible, Thats one huge surprise I am reserving for you, Behind my facade, you would see someone who cares about Isale gangan.

To mi wo, Wa mo wipe rere ni Oluwa.

You're acting so normal, you're scaring me.  lol.  Things okay in Texas?  Someone hit you on your head?  

I guess there's just no pleasing me.
