Foreign AffairsRe: Rwanda Genocide: A Survivor's Heart Rending Testimony (Pics) by jiddama(f): 10:31am On Nov 03, 2018
Mr. naptu2 , thank you for this side of the story, the narrative always changes as time goes by, but reading this from you an eyewitness makes me understand the politics at play during the genocide.

Rwanda was basically left to her fate, accusatory fingers should be pointed at all actors, the best description of the debacle was that international politics trumped humanitarian consciousness.

US - visited the sins of Somalia on Rwanda by choosing to ignore them.

I see history repeating itself, if selfish interests are still pursued first in the ongoing wars.

That's why I always reiterate to people don't clamour for war, it consumes so much and its fate spiral so out of control for the instigators.

You need to watch "sometimes in April" too, I so much felt for them ,who ever is clamouring for war should watch one of the two movies to know what's up
Hmmm,

war consumes everyone the guilty, the innocent and the undecided....

Only the foolish clamour for it.

I think you should watch Sometimes in April. I ran away from the sitting room when that movie was playing
Honestly, What really bothers me about all these war movies is that , they are no fickle imagination, that and much worse occurred in reality.

Trying to comprehend man's most brutal nature, does disturbing things to my state of mind.

I believe in humanity, No matter what , we are good....those few never represent the majority.
Foreign AffairsRe: Rwanda Genocide: A Survivor's Heart Rending Testimony (Pics) by jiddama(f):
I never seem to get myself to finish watching the film "hotel Rwanda".... knowing art imitated life.

She is a strong woman who chose forgiveness despite the hand she was dealt , I have no words to describe Mary, but she's the quintessential definition of humanity and a testimony that good people still exist.

The fact that she is talking about it shows she's healing .

The truth is being spoken, that's the first step to reconciliation...

"Bandage don't fix bullet holes if you live like that you live with ghosts"

"God will never help an unjust nation even if they are believers,but will help a just one even if they are unbelievers"

I pray rwanda and every other war-ravaged country in the world find its footing.

May the horrors of war never visit us again as a nation.

TravelRe: Eastern Island To Demand Return Of Statue Taken To U.K. 150-years-ago(photos) by jiddama(f): 12:39pm On Aug 09, 2018
Explorers:
At first it may appear that the statue heads make up the whole of the statues but archeologists decided to dig and found that full bodies were attached to the heads.
Back then in secondary school ,I read a book "Easter Island mystery" and became fascinated .

It's truly an amazing artistic feat by "the long ears" ( Polynesian tribe of easter island) to create such edifice from rocks basically with monolithic tools such as stone picks and then raise such statues using just poles, pebbles and boulders.
PoliticsRe: See Atiku’s Reply To A Twitter User Who Asked Of His Benefit To Nigerians by jiddama(f): 6:03pm On May 13, 2018
jpphilips:
Atiku is taking his well deserved glory for the privatisation of the telecommunications sector because it was one of the few privatized institutions that survived, conversely, when we talk about privatization scams like the Pentascope that killed Nitel, Alscon scam, Nicon insurance scam and so many others, Atiku supporters will tell us OBJ was in charge. grin grin

Is anyone still in doubt who orchestrated privatization scams all over the country? The culprit has spoken.

Take away the politics and wealth associated with them.....its basically a Yoruba guy marrying a Hausa lady....that's progressive (pun intended tongue )

Women are emotional beings, when we fall in love or go into a relationship ....we put our heart,mind and soul into it..(ofcourse there are a few exceptions)......so when we get hurt and tell our story there's the natural predisposition to identify and support our side of The story....

There's always 3 sides to a story: His side, Her side and the TRUTH....

Isahalbash:
what is the use of all those things on paper if the poor masses are still suffering even more than before?

mu gani a kasa ba wai mu gani a shafukan jaridu ba.



Am not a shi'te.. killing them especially at gyallesu was injustice and barbaric. Or are those innocent women, children and men also part of those that blocked Buratai?




Any Northerner that criticized Buhari is automatically a Shi'ite or PDP member according to makafin yan buhariyya; D



Buhari dai babu abunda ya tsinanawa talakawa in banda bakar wahala da talauci.


Dan Adam ginin ne; tsinanne ne yake rusa ginin Allah..
Haba @ishalbash everyone can be subjected to criticism but saying buhari bai yi komai ba ma tallaka is really overboard. This comment made me remember an incident in 2014......

Na je kwana gurin kakata a katsina ,lokacin sanyi ne and she is an avid listener of BBC Hausa morning segment(na asuba Mai archaic waka....lol) and on that programme their first report was an overnight attack by BH on a certain village,where they killed and slaughtered men,women and children...those lucky to escape ran into a watering place and hid.....when they were finally rescued matar DA akayi magana DA ita ,muryanta baya fita sosai dan sanyi ga zaman cikin ruwa nearly 3hrs.A lot of them drowned in the water mostly children... Ranar na yi kuka kamar idona zai fita here was I comfortably lying in my comforter while some women are losing their kids to either BH or Cold draughts.

When PMB relocated the military command ko control center to borno,it stratetegically changed the dynamics of the BH war.....

Now on Shiites-Nigerian army clash:
I CAN NOT ABSOLVE ANY PARTY FROM BLAME , but I know this;

1) why will a set of people cordon off an important road with out prior notice and consideration of abubuwan DA ke faruwa a Zaria rananhuh?
Who gave them the jurisdiction to do sohuh

2)The NA "used a sledge hammer to kill a mosquito"

3) That clash could have been averted if only both sides had exercised restraint

4) Zaria is an intellectual city with a high concentration of educational instirutions but still only just a LGA.....yan Shi'a were running a state within a LGA....kar ka manta idan suna zagaye a Zaria komai ya tsaya around their axis...so idan ka samu kanka a hanyar su sai dai ka hakura no matter the emergency... whether it is exams,childbirth, medical appointment etc dan ba Wanda ya isa ya ja DA su,za su Kira ma takfiri...
Ka ga bai kamata ba,babu wannan a musulinci.

5)THE GYALLESU INCIDENT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED BY A NEUTRAL THIRD PARTY AND ALL AT FAULT SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND SUBJECTED TO THE FULL WRATH OF THE LAW

#MAY THE SOULS OF THE INNOCENT LOST ON BOTH SIDES REST IN PEACE....AMEEN.

I have that intention in mind and I am a part of them. Kanuris, Fulanis, Tuaregs, Igbos, Yorubas and other Africans
Hausa naming ceremony and Hausa names;
The Hausas are fond of giving their children one or more names other than the Islamic names. Children are often named after the day of the week on which they were born:
Day of the week- male/female
Sunday- Danladi/Ladi

Monday- Tanimu/Inna or Attine

Teusday- Tatu/ Talatu or Lanti or Lantana or Tatu

Wednesday- Balarabe/ Balaraba or Laraba

Thursday - Danlami/Laminde

Friday- Danjuma or Jume or Jumare / Jummai or Jimma or Juma

Saturday- Dan Asabe/ Asabe or Asibi or Gude

I stand to be corrected
